@BracewellLaw just hired Alamdar Hamdani, the former Biden-appt US attorney who weaponized his authority to try send me to prison for a decade for blowing the whistle with @realchrisrufo about TCH's secret pediatric sex change program.
It's only too ironic they hired him to handle "government investigations."
Let's take a trip down memory lane so Bracewell can better get to know the new partner their bringing to their firm.
During his time as US Attorney, he broke away from traditional DOJ practices and went fully rogue.
In his case against me, Hamdani bypassed the entire DOJ chain of command to run my case with a single prosecutor.
I know for a fact this is very atypical because my wife is an assistant US atty and one of the attorneys defending me, Ryan Patrick, was the former US Attorney for the Southern District right before Hamdani.
I imagined Hamdani was treating this case like an inappropriate office romance because he wanted to conceal this "government investigation" from his colleagues.
This is no surprise since it was the first time in American history the DOJ was using HIPAA not to protect patient privacy but multi-billion-dollar hospital systems - TCH and Baylor.
If you think this is bad, just wait until you see who he chose as the single prosecutor to run this case.
Great reporting about this one from @AndrewCMcCarthy.
That prosecutor was Tina Ansari who is the top contender for GOAT when it comes to flagrant ethical violations. These were both personal - like threatening my wife - and potentially criminal - like practicing law in Texas with a suspended Bar license.
But Hamdani has a knack for choosing the right personnel for this kind of scheme because in the case of Tina Ansari the victims in the indictment - TCH and Baylor - were also the institutions which her family had deep personal and potentially financial ties with (Ansari pulled herself off the case after my attorneys informed DOJ of these conflicts).
So, not only did Hamdani pursue an unprecedented reinterpretation of HIPAA but chose a prosecutor whose family stood to benefit the most from the corruption.
Hopefully Bracewell has solid ethics attorney because those conflicts of interest can be a treacherous minefield.
Great reporting from @EdWhelanEPPC.
Hamdani also hasn't proven to be very adept at identifying "factual evidence" since what was included in his first indictment was pure fiction.
This stench becomes even more odorous once everyone realized their "factual evidence" was disproved by their own discovery.
This was the Stevie Wonder approach to criminal prosecution - never look at your own evidence; instead, allow pure creativity and vibes to guide the way.
Unlike for Stevie, this didn't work out too well for them. They scrapped their first indictment after Ansari essentially conceded she presented false information to a grand jury - only she didn't do so "knowingly."
Bracewell should also make sure they assign a spellchecker to Hamdani since it took his team six months to realize they left a critical typo in the operational language of not one but TWO of their indictments.
It seems whatever Hamdani and his team lacked in proofreading is made up for in shameless targeting of whistleblowers.
It would be wise for Bracewell to make sure he doesn't spend too much time lurking around the anonymous complaint box.
Bracewell should also make sure they assign Hamdani an extra paralegal or two.
Once we made his team aware that their "evidence" was just as phony as their legal interpretation of HIPAA, they simply resorted to inventing new criminal statutory language.
This could be seen after their first indictment fell apart - they had to axe the legally actionable language and sneak in something else.
They landed on the word "use" instead of "disclose" - since they knew there was never any disclosure of patient information.
And "use" makes sense. It is common enough to fly under the radar, yet broad enough to cast a wide range of conduct as criminal - perfect for Team Hamdani.
The problem is that the word "use" is not included anywhere in the HIPAA criminal statute - the Judge pointed this out in a not so delicate fashion during a hearing in November.
It was during this hearing that the DOJ chain of command was finally brought into the fold since Judge Hittner ordered the Southern District's criminal chief, Ted Imperato, to attend in person.
Because Imperato was in attendance, he became a firsthand witness to Tina Ansari's public meltdown in court.
Her failures were so hard to watch, the Judge allowed the DOJ's second chair on the case, Jessica Feinstein, to step in and attempt a cleanup.
At this hearing Hamdani's team requested the judge clean up their mess and "strike" the errors from the indictment. Despite their epic failure in the courtroom, they explicitly stated they would not file a second superseding indictment.
Their motion to strike the language was denied.
The unprecedented failures and monumental conflicts were simply too great and Ansari withdrew herself from the case soon after this hearing.
She couldn't help herself and ran into the door one last time before making her final exit.
In a truly spectacular move of shamelessness, she withdrew herself from the case under a sealed motion.
She broke a new glass ceiling by introducing the Irish goodbye into the legal world.
Much thanks to @Not_the_Bee and @pnjaban for jumping in to help unseal this motion.
But Hamdani authorized the new AUSA, Jessica Feinstein, to do exactly what his team said they wouldn't do in front of the Judge - they filed a third superseding indictment.
During Hamdani's onboarding, Bracewell should seriously consider including a refresher on the concept of "candor to the court."
They should also consider a refresher on the first amendment since Hamdani's team filed a motion for a gag order on the same day of their third indictment.
Great reporting from @ProfMJCleveland about the gag order.
Apparently, they thought a gag order was appropriate against someone like me who has never been recognized publicly, whose trial is set in one of the biggest federal districts, and despite there being a whole list of remedies (i.e. voir dire) that should be used first.
Of course, this was never about me being able to prejudice a jury, instead, was about Hamdani's delicate prosecutors not getting their feelings hurt. And this wasn't an assumption on my part but rather their own stated reasoning.
They actually wrote in their motion they were "concerned" about "online bullying." They even used statements from @KyleSeraphin, @feelsdesperate, and @MikeBenzCyber to justify their violation of my first amendment.
Luckily for Hamdani, Judge Hittner was just as corrupt as they were. He threatened to send me to jail if I continued "similar conduct" (i.e. criticizing the government).
But Hamdani and his band of miscreants were unsuccessful.
I defied their blatantly unconstitutional de facto gag order and the Judge tried to send me to jail for it.
But once Hamdani left his position after Trump's inauguration, the acting US Attorney filed a motion to dismiss the case with prejudice before crazy Judge Hittner could sign his arrest warrant.
With the case over and Hamdani gone from the US Attorney's Office, he could slink away to start a "new chapter" as he recently said in one of his recent LinkedIn posts.
It's no secret as to what kind of company he plans to hold because congratulating him on his new position at Bracewell was none other than Matthew Graves.
Thanks to great reporting from @julie_kelly2 we know Graves is the architect of one of the most corrupt USAO's in the country and therefore, one of the leaders of the deep state goblin army.
Bracewell may very well be excited to share this "new chapter" with Alamdar Hamdani.
But they should know that there is an old chapter that isn't quite finished yet.

If you want to understand the DOJ's investigation into gender clinics' fraudulent billing practices, best place to start is this Kaiser Health News article.
It tells the story of Tim Chevalier - a lady who believes she's a man who needs laser hair removal for a "phalloplasty."
Article starts by explaining Chevalier's insurance, Anthem, denied coverage for laser hair removal because it was "cosmetic."
It goes on to explain that "insurance companies, sometimes question mental health claims more rigorously than those for physical illnesses."
The article includes Johanna Olson-Kennedy, one of the trans industry's apex predators.
She endorses the move from ICD-10 (currently in use) to ICD-11.
Her reason is that gender diagnoses would "no longer be a mental health condition, but sexual health one."
Since "sexual health" diagnosis codes are considered physical condition as opposed to a mental health condition, the idea is that insurance would more easily cover the hormones and surgery that are part of "gender affirming care."
In a 2023 podcast, AMA and Harvard "experts" lay out the medical billing scam used for abortion.
This is same exact scam used in gender clinics.
They were warning activists of the massive criminal consequences of False Claims Act.
This reveals their greatest vulnerability 🧵
Notice the intro how they make very specific claims - so specific you could say they are suspiciously specific.
Like they know exactly what is going on and running cover.
Especially once you realize both are leaders in elite left wing activist networks.
Things get even more suspicious when they describe the exact diagnosis codes used to submit fraudulent abortion claims.
And now we know this likely reflects systematic criminality since gender clinics relied on false codes like "endocrine abnormality" and "precocious puberty."
Dr. Guyatt is a Canadian physician who was inducted into the Canadian Medical Hall of Fame in 2016 and is the founder of evidenced based medicine (EBM).
He actually coined the term "evidenced based medicine" in 1991 (original article - image #2).
A top Fed lawyer who oversaw my prosecution snaked his way to become the top pick for US Attorney in SDTX.
John Pearson presents as a "Republican" but under Biden, he transitioned to Leticia James.
His nomination to Cruz and Cornyn is imminent unless we do something about it.
I've spoken with people on the nomination committee as well as SDTX prosecutors who personally witnessed Pearsons's transition to radical left-wing sock puppet under Biden.
Now that he wants an appointment from President Trump, he pretends to be a staunch, conservative.
Pearson gloated to nomination committee that he signed my dismissal.
They were told Pearson had “nothing to do with” my case.
Impossible. He was involved, likely every step of the way. And he did nothing to stop it.
I outlined this in a letter I sent to Cruz/Cornyn’s staff.
I did a deep dive into Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson's dissenting opinion.
It's even worse than I expected.
Follow this thread to see for yourself. 🧵
Their main argument is that the law discriminates on the basis of sex since there are certain medications that make boys look like boys, vice versa for girls.
But that's insane.
These treatments are meant for diagnosable pathologies in order to restore normal physiology.
It would be like saying a patient without cancer but "identifies as having cancer" is being discriminated against because a doctor is refusing to give them chemotherapy.
They have the audacity to claim the majority opinion "contorts logic" while they rely on anti-logic.
