I have been following this bloke from down under for some time. He has investigated the “stuff they don’t want you to know” sort of topics. The actual true nature of the police that I believe most police officers as the public is oblivious to. There has been a vocation in America since nearly the very beginning. That vocation was known as a “peace officer”. Mostly the Sheriffs assumes this role. Then in more metropolitan areas you had the creation of private police officers. The sort similar to that of Wells Fargo to protect the railroads. But also was created “corporate, or “commercial” law enforcement. This is what we have come to know as “policing for profit”. Most departments have become a hybrid of both. I believe that within this fusion, and especially after the 14th Amendment was forced upon us unlawfully by means of absolute subversion of the American Republic, we know have a very serious problem.
You, by now, no doubt know that the US Supreme Court has determined that corporate law enforcement have no duty to protect you. That has come to a blazing shock to many people. To this day it causes arguments with people who suffer from cognitive dissonance because they have been lied to and propagandized for so long they just can’t handle the truth. Well in this video a bit of the veil is removed. We will be walking down this road together in upcoming articles and video presentations. Start with our Patriot Manifesto, and by reading the research that is at the bottom of every article we post on the Reconstruction Replacement Government.
It is so hard listening to this authoritarian newspeak manipulator, but it’s almost like one just can not believe how many people buy into the hypocrites like him that one must confirm that they actually exist. Almost like a moth to a flame, I watch while scratching my head.
Brian Young of the High Impact Flix channel decimated the hypocrisy in short order. While “Beta male” O’Rourke consistently champions a form of government we were supposed to completely avoid. This notion that defending “Democracy”, being so important that some political overlords feel the need to resort to dropping bombs on people, is the hallmark of a great idea. Oh yes, Democracy is so great you will either love it or lose your life. It reminds me of the scene from “The Godfather” when Micheal Corleone explains to his soon to be wife a contract his father wanted a Hollywood mogul to sign where mob enforcer Luca holds a gun to his head while his father explains that either his brains or his signature will be on the contact.
As Brian points out, Ben Franklin had some words to explain “Democracy” in its essence..
“Democracy is two wolves and a lamb deciding what’s for dinner”!
A word of thanks to a good man, with courage and integrity, with a big heart, but the common sense to keep it in balance. Brian Young has caused me to pause on many occasions and literally stop and think. Many people have had really interesting comments on his content. Some admitted to disagreeing with on some things but admitted that he had positively challenged them, and in many situations. I attribute this to the mind control of government propaganda. In fact, If you asked me after watching his content to give a short few words to relay his message I would say ...
#PrinciplesOverParty and #FreedomFromTyranny
He has helped many content creators on YouTube who have been censored and wrongfully accused. I would like to publicly state my appreciation. It is an honor to call Brian Young my friend. Life seldomly provides the opportunity to have good friends. My father was a very wise. He said “you can count good friends on one hand, and usually have fingers to spare. How true.
A Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department deputy was making it all up when he claimed he’d been shot in the shoulder by a sniper last week, officials say.
Los Angeles Sheriff's Deputy Angel Reinosa lied about being shot by a sniper last week. (AP)
Deputy Angel Reinosa, 21, reported Wednesday he’d been hit with a bullet around 3 p.m. as he was walking to the parking lot, launching a manhunt and evacuation at a local apartment complex where a sniper supposedly fired off two shots. Is Reinosa just bat sh!t crazy, was he trying to play a joke? Or is he one of those folks being used by some clandestine compartment of government like the CIA, or the Mossad? But seriously.
Officials said late Saturday that Reinosa wasn’t actually shot.
“There was no sniper, no shots fired and no gunshot injury sustained to his shoulder. Completely fabricated,” Capt. Kent Wegener said at a press conference, according to ABC 7.
But one of the most disturbing things that occurred to me... the news reporters were telling it as if it were all absolutely true. No fact checking, no phone calls... just absorb, and regurgitate. Think about that for a few moments.
Completely fabricated. No information on his medical history, or any familial mental health issues
After investigators found no evidence of injury to Reinosa’s shoulder, he admitted he hadn’t been shot — and that he had cut holes in his own shirt.
“Must of his statement was self-serving, didn’t make a whole lot of sense, but he didn’t get into detail as to why he cut the holes or why he fabricated this story. No motivation,” Wegener said. Who does something like
this? I’ll be keeping a close eye on him. But I can’t make any sense of this. Unless he really really wanted to be fired so there was no disputable workman’s comp? Maybe, just maybe, I didn’t really write this. It was Elvis Costello.
I do find it extremely humorous that a few main stream news folks jumped on this story. They opened up wide and ate a total “you got played” sandwich !
Reinosa has been fired and is expected to face criminal charges for filling a false report of an emergency, according to ABC 7. The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office could also file more charges if prosecutors see fit. But personally I do not understand their reaction at all. There has hardly been enough time for them to do a thourough and detailed mental health evaluation. I was talking to one of my staff and ran this by them and the first response I got was -
“C’mon Tom, the guy likely got the date of their upcoming false flag incorrect. It’s not as if anyone will putthat together.” Were there any Homeland Security exercises going on?
No, but seriously. He seems to me perhaps a Section 8 either way. So the reaction of the department is what is curious to me. I would have expected something like, “Angel not we are sure what made him do this. These are NOT the actions or the behavior of a sane deputy would just decide one day, “Hey I want to be the biggest jerk I can be, get fired and lose my benefits, health care and pension from a really well paying job. Yeah - that’s exactly what I want to do.
I am curious to see the results of any testing they may run him through.

Superintendent - The Heat of Inaction - Why did Cruz Slip Through the Cracks? He didn’t.
Had to reduce those arrest statistics to keep the Federal Grant Program money rolling in.
Nicolas Cruz had serious problems. There is a documentary I will be posting at the bottom. It is interesting.
CLIP #1
CLIP #2
Superintendent Runcie Caught Lying About Cruz & the Promise Grant Program
CLIP #3
Nikolas Cruz - Revealed to “Have Been In the Promise Grant Program - Runcie Caught in the Lie!
Runcie and the School Board Both Caught in the Lie!
The truth... Cruz was not arrested for (in my opinion) 2 major reasons.
1 - The actual intentional and in all probability very intentionally, Nikolas Crus was not arrested when in fact the SRO’s has more than enough justification to intervene.
2 - He could have either been brought back into the program by actually “being proactive”, Or, of course what is far more likely, that there were instructions as we hear in the video “not to arrest him”. This can also be for 2 different or combined possibilities.
- He was a “targeted individual”. He clearly “heard voices”, and not only governments get into this activity. Along with intelligence agencies also private corporations, ideologues, perhaps corporate structure much like the SPLC, or any hard core cult like believing anti-gun group, or coordinated effort, these operations have long taken place. Denying this is to deny reality itself.
I’m not accusing. But with what we know for fact in the past about that history, it is more than a reasonable consideration. Some may call it “Conspiracy Theory” all they like. I have hard evidence of the things I That I articulate my ponderings. And I want people to understand, I make no solid “this is it” theory, unless I have an overwhelming amount of evidence to present.
He was compliant, and shows signs and symptoms of psychological manipulation trauma. I would be willing to bet they also did not test his blood for some common but slightly exotic mind control drugs. The Devil’s Breath comes to mind. What I am putting forward is perfectly scientifically reasonably possible. Drugs like concentrated Scopolomine from a tree in South America has flowers that grow on it. Concentrated they make the intoxicated extremely suggestive. Some people become total slaves to a handler. But all inhibition is completely removed. And this is just one such drug. There are literally dozens known to those in spycraft, governmental or corporate espionage, and Black Ops. There is a serious agenda being pushed hard out there. What a better way than to pave the way with “it bleeds it leads”, and complete ignorance as to the fraud being comitted when millions of dollars are flowing just from one Grant program alone. There are quotes about this planned process of subversion of the U.S Constitution, of the ruin of Individual Natural Rights for that of collectivism.
Dana Ashlie explains how the government targets individuals (TI or Targeted Individuals) with "energy weapons" (think this could be related to MK-Ultra?), basically tormenting them and causing them to hear voices in their heads by transmitting spoken sentences into their minds. The interesting thing is, nearly every mass shooter reported of hearing voices in their heads including Nik Cruz so Dana speculated the government is heavily involved and how this is related to Project Bluebeam which will basically fake the Second Coming. it's also interesting to note that many TIs who heard voices in their minds were misdiagnosed as schizophrenic and I remember reading about one article about this shooter in Florida who was diagnosed as such and heard voices.
Thoughts, views, analysis, research, observation, expression, opinion, presentation are that of the author and the author alone. All assertions are theories based reasonably on available factual information.
As I said in this column last week, Republicans Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham and Marco Rubio are joining forces with liberal Democrats to soon enact “red flag” gun confiscation laws. I also reported on the push for the enactment of other gun control measures such as universal background checks being promoted on Capitol Hill and by the White House here.
I urge readers to watch my 8-minute video exposing Donald Trump’s betrayal of his promise to protect the 2nd Amendment and share it with as many of your friends as you can. If we don’t convince our U.S. senators to reject these egregious gun control measures, THEY WILL BE PASSED, AND TRUMP WILL SIGN THEM INTO LAW. We have about two or three weeks to convince our senators to reject these new gun control laws. That’s it.
If law-abiding gun owners don’t call their U.S. senators en masse, and I mean posthaste, you are very likely to wake up one morning around 4am to the sound of a SWAT team breaking down your door to confiscate your guns, prepared to kill you or any member of your family who resists. Why? Perhaps because a gun-hating neighbor hates you having guns or a relative doesn’t like you and is looking for any way to “teach you a lesson” or your ex-spouse is looking for any way to “get even” with you or an anti-gun cop with a grudge wants to send a political message or a family doctor or school teacher overheard one of your children talk about how many guns daddy has and became alarmed, etc., ad infinitum.
Plus, the FBI has just recently stated that if you believe in “conspiracy theories,” you are a “domestic terrorist threat.” That statement is from an FBI intelligence bulletin from the bureau’s Phoenix field office, dated May 30, 2019. That FBI designation alone could very easily precipitate a “red flag” gun confiscation order being rendered against you.
And Donald Trump himself recently demonstrated how dangerous “red flag” laws are. In a tweet on August 13, President Trump said,
Would Chris Cuomo be given a Red Flag for his recent rant? Filthy language and a total loss of control. He shouldn’t be allowed to have any weapon. He’s nuts!
Are you paying attention? Donald Trump was threatening to use a “red flag” law to authorize police agencies to take away an American citizen’s Natural God-given right of self-defense simply because Trump didn’t like what the citizen said—about him.
Folks, don’t you see? Those in authority can use “red flag” gun confiscation laws against ANYONE they want and for ANY REASON they want.
In other words, there doesn’t have to be a reason. Under “red flag” laws, all it takes for police to come and seize your guns is for someone to make a “red flag” accusation against you. That’s it. And, yes, it really IS that easy.
“Red flag” laws not only eviscerate the 2nd Amendment, but the 1st Amendment, 4th Amendment, 5th Amendment, 6th Amendment, 7th Amendment and 8th Amendment.
The enforcement of “red flag” laws is actually much worse than you think, so says Donald Kilmer, an attorney who has litigated and defended against many state and federal gun charges.
Everyone is debating “red flag” laws like they’re some new thing, but California has had variations of them for decades. We call them domestic violence restraining orders, civil harassment restraining orders, workplace restraining orders, elder abuse restraining orders, mental health seizures and prohibition orders, and, more recently, gun violence restraining orders.
They’re all meant to disarm dangerous people — but they’re all fundamentally flawed.
None of these red flag laws would have prevented recent mass shootings. And in my 23 years practicing law in the heart of Silicon Valley, I have litigated dozens of these cases. I’ve seen firsthand the practical enforcement problems that emerge in real-life cases.
These kinds of court orders are usually obtained from a judge ex parte. That’s fancy Latin for: The judge only hears one side of the story, it is not your side, and you may not even know about it until after the fact. Then they immediately strip you of fundamental constitutional rights for the duration of the orders. You’ll get your “full due process” hearing, but not until later.
And any violation of these orders is separately punishable as a crime. So even if you are innocent of the underlying conduct that inspired the “red flag” order, if you violate the order pending your hearing, you can still face criminal charges.
That kind of situation is ripe for danger. In one situation in Baltimore, police ended up shooting [and killing] a man when they came to collect his guns under a “red flag” law.
In one case in Southern California, a client had to pay a $1,000 ransom, that was reduced from an initial “offer” of $4,000, to get his 50-gun collection back.
Experienced counsel to defend you in a “due process” hearing will run about $15,000 in fees. If you lose and want to appeal, expect to spend another $25,000 to $100,000 in fees and costs. And even with all of that, you might still lose.
To win these hearings, you have to refute an allegation that you pose a danger to yourself or others where a judge already issued a temporary ex parte order that concluded you were already a danger. Many judges will likely err on the side of caution, and against your rights.
As a practical matter, if the government’s interest is in separating a potentially-dangerous person from guns, it makes no sense to leave other guns that belong to family members in the home. So, if you live with someone that gets a red flag order issued against them, then you and others living in the same home risk losing your guns, too.
Even if you win, the judge isn’t going to just hand your guns back to you at the end of the hearing. It’s probably a good idea to “lawyer up” just to go through the process of recovering your guns, so you don’t go to jail or prison for accidentally breaking an obscure firearm law or regulation. You wouldn’t want to set off a red flag.
Law-abiding gun owners better get a big whiff of reality SOON and realize that if they are going to maintain the right to keep and bear arms much longer, THEY must step up to the plate and defend that right—and I mean RIGHT NOW.
The NRA is compromised and is in complete disarray and is offering NO HELP. Donald Trump has already proven he has ZERO fidelity to the 2nd Amendment (or to the rest of the Constitution and Bill of Rights, for that matter). Most Christians and conservatives are in a state of deep denial and hibernation, believing that their yellow-haired savior would never betray them, in spite of the fact that he has already betrayed them—repeatedly.
It is up to individual freedomists and gun owners who are willing to fight for their right to keep and bear arms to fend off this assault against our 2nd Amendment liberties. Reinforcements are not coming; it is up to YOU AND ME.
How much does the 2nd Amendment mean to you? Each of us will determine the answer to that question by what we do or do not do RIGHT NOW.
P.S. I, again, URGE readers to watch my 8-minute video regarding Trump’s betrayal of the 2nd Amendment and the push for the enactment of “red flag” gun confiscation laws and share it with everyone you can. In the video, I also include the phone numbers for both the White House and U.S. Senate, where you can call and voice your opposition.
P.P.S. Here is my video Open Letter To Our Legislator, Judges And Lawmen regarding “red flag” gun confiscation laws. Please watch it and share.

Another awesome report from James Corbett of the Corbett Report. An in depth analysis of the reported death of Jeffrey Epstein. I must admit, I am not sold on his actual death as I at this point trust very little in the government telling the truth, especially about those who have been confirmed as directly ensconced in the intelligence community enough to have been protected by other government officials who allowed his abuse of underage girls to continue.
So that what many people believe, is that this was likely a Mossad honey pot operation, allowed to continue on by some very sick and twisted individuals who work for the US, and likely Israeli governments . I suggested he may have been on his way to Tel Aviv an hour after they announced his death. But this is purely speculation and admittedly while absolutely possible to pull off, admittedly it would not be a cake walk. But then again, the US government has come a long way since Operation Northwoods days, and Israel a long way since the Lavon Affair or the attack on the USS Liberty or the nuclear material theft, technology theft, essentially espionage see: NUMEC US Nuclear materials theft.
And you can read the book below that I will continue to promote until every American I can convince to read it does. It is meticulously written using the best most reliable sources. How do I know? They were sources that really did not want this story told. Much of the information comes from FOIA request releases.
Based on an exhaustive review of formerly classified government documents-as well as previously unexplored corporate filings, office diaries and unguarded interviews, Grant F. Smith has written a riveting story of the 1960s diversion of US weapons-grade nuclear material from an Israeli front company in Pennsylvania into the clandestine Israeli atomic weapons program. While the description is often used "diversion", I have always thought it to be far too kind. I call it like it is folks, we at RTR Truth Media pull no punches. The material was stolen. Those who did so did not own it. It belonged to the United States of America. The talented but highly conflicted founder of the Nuclear Materials and Equipment Corporation (NUMEC)-Dr. Zalman Mordecai Shapiro alongside his close friend and financial backer David Lowenthal-engaged in a ferocious clandestine drive to funnel the most valuable military material on earth that forever tilted the balance of power between Israel and the world. Divert! chronicles Zalman Shapiro's journey from crafting ingenious innovations for the Nautilus nuclear submarine in the 1950s to his costly pursuit of America's most advanced hydrogen bomb designs in the 1970s. Tasked during secret summits with high-level Israeli intelligence agents, guided by Israel's top nuclear arms designers, and defended by Israel and its US lobby, Shapiro and NUMEC drove the CIA and FBI from furious outrage to despair. Presidents from LBJ to Jimmy Carter secretly grappled with how to respond to Israel's brazen theft of American nuclear material before finally deciding to bury the entire affair in classified files. But NUMEC's toxic secrets have refused to be buried alive. Newly declassified wiretaps have risen from the grave, detailing Shapiro's utter contempt for worker and nuclear safety. David Lowenthal's role as an international refugee smuggler between the US, Europe and Israel-before organizing financing for NUMEC-is placed under new scrutiny. This explosive story emerges even as the US Army Corps of Engineers struggles to quietly clean NUMEC's toxic waste near Apollo, Pennsylvania with $170 million in taxpayer funding. At a time when America is coming under intense pressure to attack on the mere suspicion that Iran is diverting nuclear material, Divert! stands as the ultimate cautionary tale of how US Middle East policy is continually undermined from within by corruption, immunity, deceit and unwarranted secrecy.

Article written by Karl Grossman, with additional information, research and content added

Photograph Source: Alan R Walker – CC BY-SA 3.“Pentagon May Have Released Weaponized Ticks That Helped Spread of Lyme Disease: Investigation Ordered” was the Newsweekheadline last month. The article below it was about the U.S. House of Representatives having “quietly passed a bill requiring the Inspector General of the Department of Defense to conduct a review into whether the Pentagon experimented with ticks and other blood-sucking insects for use as biological weapons between 1950 and 1975.”
The article continued: “If the Inspector General finds that such experiments occurred, then, according to the bill, they must provide the House and Senate Armed Services committees with a report on the scope of the research and ‘whether any ticks or insects used in such experiments were released outside of any laboratory by accident or experimental design’…potentially leading to the spread of diseases such as Lyme.”
The measure was introduced by Representative Chris Smith, a New Jersey Republican, “who was ‘inspired’ by several books and articles claiming that the U.S. government had conducted research at facilities such as Fort Detrick, Maryland, and Plum Island, New York, for this purpose.”
One of the books, published earlier this year, was Bitten: The Secret History of Lyme Disease and Biological Weapons by Stanford University science writer Kris Newby. It includes interviews with Willy Burgdorfer who is credited with having discovered the pathogen that causes Lyme disease and earlier developed bio-weapons for the Department of Defense. Said Smith on the House floor: “Those interviews combined with access to Dr. Burdorfer’s lab files suggest that he and other bio-weapons specialists stuffed ticks with pathogens to cause severe disability, disease—even death—to potential enemies. With Lyme disease and other tick-borne diseases exploding in the United States…Americans have a right to know whether any of this is true.”
Whether Lyme disease resulted from activities on Plum Island, a mile-and-a-half off the North Fork of Long Island, New York and 10 miles from Old Lyme, Connecticut—where the first cases surfaced in 1975 and thus where the disease got its name—is an issue I’ve pursued since tick-borne Lyme disease became widespread on Long Island where I have long been based as a journalist. I’ve been writing articles and doing television programs about Plum Island for decades.
A 1982 book linking Plum Island and Lyme disease was The Belarus Secret: The Nazi Connection in America written by John Loftus, an attorney specializing in pursuing Nazis for the Office of Special Investigations of the U.S. Department of Justice. He tells of former “Nazi germ warfare scientists” brought to the U.S. after World War II who “experimented with poison ticks dropped from planes to spread rare diseases. I have received some information suggesting that the U.S. tested some of these poison ticks on the Plum Island artillery range during the early 1950s…Most of the germ warfare records have been shredded, but there is a top secret U.S. document confirming that ‘clandestine attacks on crops and animals’ took place at this time.”
Loftus points to “the hypothesis that the poison ticks are the source of the Lyme disease spirochete.” And adds: “Sooner or later the whole truth will come out, but probably not in my lifetime.”
In 1995, with Lyme disease epidemic on Long Island, indeed in many areas of the U.S., a just-elected congressman from Long Island, Michael Forbes, conducted what he told me would be a “raid” on Plum Island. He would go to the Plum Island Animal Disease Center and demand information about tick weaponization there and a link to Lyme disease as related by Loftus. He took John McDonald, an investigative reporter at the Long Island newspaper Newsday, and me.
McDonald has also focused on Plum Island. In a November 21, 1993 article in Newsday, McDonald documented the biological warfare mission of Plum Island with records he obtained. The piece began: “A 1950s military plan to cripple the Soviet economy by killing horses, cattle and swine called for making biological warfare weapons out of exotic animal diseases at a Plum Island laboratory, now-declassified Army records reveal.” A facsimile of one of the records, dated 1951, covered the front page of that issue of Newsday.
The article went on: “Documents and interviews disclose for the first time what officials have denied for years: that the mysterious and closely guarded animal lab off the East End of Long Island was originally designed to conduct top-secret research into replicating dangerous viruses that could be used to destroy enemy livestock.”
When Representative Forbes on his “raid” on Fire Island confronted the center’s director, Dr. Harley Moon, in the presence of McDonald and me, under intensive questioning Moon took the position that “we don’t have any paperwork on that.”
Then in 2004 came another book, Lab 257, also by an attorney, Michael Carroll, formerly a law firm associate of the late New York State Governor Mario Cuomo. Using documents he found in the National Archives, he exposes a full story about Plum Island. He detailed how Erich Traub during World War II was the “lab chief of Insel Riems—a secret Nazi biological warfare laboratory” in the Baltic with a mission in World War II of poisoning cattle in the Soviet Union.
Traub and hundreds of other Nazi scientists among them Wernher von Braun were brought to the U.S. in the U.S. government’s “Project Paperclip” after the war. Traub was the “father” of the establishment of a bio-warfare center on Plum Island, says Lab 257, with the same mission Insel Riems had—going after Soviet livestock now with the Cold War having begun.
Lab 257 relates how “animal handlers and a scientist released ticks outdoors on the island. They called him the Nazi scientist…they were inoculating these ticks.” Carroll, too, points to the possibility of Lyme disease emerging from activities on Plum Island with ticks.
Before the war, Traub spent time in the U.S. “Ironically, Traub spent the prewar period of his scientific career on a fellowship at the Rockefeller Institute in Princeton, New Jersey, perfecting his skills in viruses and bacteria under the tutelage of American experts before returning to Nazi Germany on the eve of war,” writes Carroll. While in the U.S. in the 1930s, too, relates the book, Traub was a member of the Amerika-Deutscher Volksbund which was involved in pro-Nazi rallies held weekly in Yaphank on Long Island for Nazis from the New York Metropolitan Area.
Making use of scientific contacts he had made before the war, when Traub came back to the U.S. under Project Paperclip, Traub’s “detailed explanation of the secret operation on Insel Riems” given to officials at Fort Detrick in Maryland, the Army’s biological warfare headquarters, and to the CIA, “laid the groundwater for Fort Detrick’s offshore germ warfare animal disease lab on Plum Island,” says Lab257.
Lab 257 also tells of why in 1954 suddenly Plum Island was transferred from the Department of Defense to the Department of Agriculture: the Pentagon becoming concerned about having to feed millions of people in the Soviet Union if it destroyed their food animals. The Joint Chiefs of Staff “found that a war with the U.S.S.R. would best be fought with conventional and nuclear means, and biological warfare against humans not against food animals,” says Lab 257. “Destroying the food supply meant having to feed millions of starving Russians after winning a war”
Still, Lab 257 questions whether there ever was a clean break. Officials at the Plum Island Animal Disease Center have insisted over the years—including to me—that the center’s function after the Army ended its management has been to conduct research into foreign animal diseases not found in the U.S. especially foot-and-mouth disease—but “defensive” biological warfare research remains being done, they also say.
Largely because of security concerns involving Plum Island in the wake of the 9/11 attack—a 2003 a report by the Government Accountability Office cited the ease of terrorists to land on the island which sits amidst busy marine traffic lanes and close by the population center of the U.S.—New York City to the west, Boston to the north—the U.S. government moved to move Plum Island’s activities to a new federal laboratory to be built in Kansas. What is to be called the National Bio and Agro-defense Facility, a $1.25 billion project, is “expected to be operational by 2022-2023” on the campus of Kansas State University, according to the university’s website.
Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (“CREW”) makes this request for
records pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act (“FOIA”), 5 U.S.C. § 552, and General
Services Administration (“GSA”) regulations.
First, CREW requests copies of all records from November 9, 2016 to the present
regarding the decision of GSA, announced in 2008, to sell Plum Island off the coast of Long
Island, New York as well as the Orient Point Support Facility and related property and
transportation assets.
Second, CREW seeks all communications between any GSA official(s) and Donald J.
Trump or any members or representatives of the Trump Organization including but not limited to
his sons Donald Trump, Jr. and Eric Trump and his daughter Ivanka Trump and son-in-law Jared
Kushner, regarding the sale of Plum Island.
But the congressman now representing the New York district in which Plum Island is located, Lee Zeldin, close personally and politically to President Trump, has introduced legislation and been pushing hard for the federal government not to sell Plum Island but to hold on to it as a “nature preserve”—and allowing research to continue on it.
