LOLOLOL
Now that just proved what I've thought all along. Everybody reads what GUS writes.

Denton...As vigilant as you are at posting these informative posts. There seems to be a lack of enthusiasm at holding our elected representatives accountable for their actions & remarks...look at Pelosi...as "Speaker of the House" she said "We have to pass this bill to see what's in it" in regards to "Obamacare"...she also has the distinction of claiming that Unemployment Insurance creates jobs & is the "fastest job creator program" we have....Feinstein??? Does anybody here know she was pulled over for a traffic violation in San Francisco shortly after she was elected Mayor of the city & after she got a ban on handguns passed...that she was caught having a concealed handgun in her purse??? Yet none of this schitt is brought out against them when the seats are up for re-election... ...It's my firm belief that between the ignorance of the general public, the help of the MSM, the support from the immigration "friendly" supporters & the utter ignorance/incompetence of the republican party,...they will continue to subvert the constitution of the United States...there seems to be little "outrage" from mainstream America....YOU KNOW WHAT??? Politicians see this as TACIT approval for their actions...meaning "if they think they can get away with it they will"...

Right now, we're faced with a president that has bailed out Wall Street & the automotive industry with our tax dollars...
He's authorized aid to our enemy in the form of cash payments to the likes of the Muslim brotherhood in Egypt & the government of Pakistan who harbored Osama Bin laden himelf!!! Yet nary a protest from middle America... This schitt makes me sick to my stomach that I spent six years of my life supporting what I thought was a representative govt....only to figure out 20 years down the road that the socialists figured out a way to subvert the entire process...

My thoughts right now are that everybody in America should change their withholding status...Starve the sons of bitches...

I've emailed Pelosi, Feinstein, Boxer & Matsui...the White House & the DOJ...I don't intend on complying with ANY executive orders...This is gonna be my last year of "compliance" with any tax codes or executive orders...come October, I'm dropping off the grid...

Made the front page of the Fox News website this morning

Denton,

did you read the article? Only $250,000 ever changed hands, and that is according only to Jeremy Johnson, (JJ) the biggest swindler to come out of Utah in a while, and as a resident of that fair state, I'm sure you will agree that would have to be quite swindle.

Classic scammer, though, when the heat gets turned up on him, he diverts attention to the brand-new AG.

Do you know JJ's business model?

from the SL Trib::

St. George businessman Jeremy Johnson and federal prosecutors are in a legal tug-of-war over whether he should remain in jail while a court sorts through the latest charge against him.

And the receiver who has control of his assets also is at odds with Johnson over his request to spend lavishly at a time when he is supposedly struggling financially.

Johnson was ordered Monday to appear in court later this week in Phoenix to determine whether he will remain in jail after his arrest on a charge related to his alleged involvement in taking $275 million from U.S. consumers through bogus means.

Federal prosecutors are asking that Johnson be held pending the outcome of a federal charge of mail fraud. But Johnson also could be facing more charges after his arrest Saturday by IRS agents at the Phoenix airport before he was scheduled to board a flight to Costa Rica, where he now lives.

Johnson was arrested Saturday based on a "felony complaint." Normally, in the federal court system such a complaint serves as a way to hold a suspect, said Melodie Rydalch, spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney's Office for Utah that filed the charge in Salt Lake City.

"We include enough information to establish probable cause for a judge to approve the issuance of a federal arrest warrant," she said Monday. "Typically, when the case is presented to a grand jury for consideration, other charges are added."

Johnson's St. George attorney, Travis Marker, said the charge came as a surprise, adding that Johnson had been cooperating with the government and would have stayed in St. George after a visit last week if he had known he might be arrested.

"We're just concerned that it had to happen this way," Marker said. "I think the process was disingenuous on the government's part. I think Jeremy would have cooperated and helped out where he could and taken care of this before he left and had been put in jail."

Johnson and his I Works company, along with associates and related entities, were sued by the Federal Trade Commission in December for allegedly using shell companies and false advertisements to entice consumers to buy information on "make-money schemes" and "stay-healthy programs" and to obtain government and private grants.

Consumers who gave credit- or debit-card numbers for a minimal handling charge, usually $1.99, were then charged unauthorized monthly fees of $59.95, and some faced a one-time fee of $189, according to the suit.

Hundreds of thousands of Johnson's customers sought refunds from credit-card companies over the charges, the suit said. When Visa and MasterCard terminated those merchant accounts, the complaint says Johnson and others created dozens of shell companies to accept card payments in order to avoid detection.

Since 2006, Johnson's companies have taken in more than $350 million from sales and returned about $75 million to customers who complained to their credit- or debit-card companies, while keeping more than $275 million, according to court records. Johnson has received more than $48 million in salary and other distributions since 2006, the FTC said.

Johnson recently filed an emergency motion in the FTC lawsuit asking a judge to release funds that the court froze so he could pay personal bills of about $26,700 a month. Those include about $16,600 for payments on his St. George home and $2,650 a month for yard maintenance.

Johnson's request is being opposed by the FTC and the court-appointed receiver, Robb Evans & Associates, which controls Johnson's companies and assets.

The receiver complained that Johnson has not been cooperating in sorting through his assets, failed to show how he was paying for flights between the U.S. and Costa Rica where he and his family are living, and pointed out that Johnson asked that he be allowed use his million-dollar houseboat on Lake Powell over Memorial Day weekend.

"How can Johnson and his family have funds to travel [either from Costa Rica or St. George] to Lake Powell, expend the funds necessary to outfit and use their luxurious houseboat for a weekend getaway and then return to Costa Rica, or St. George, when all of their nonreceiveship assets have purportedly been 'depleted?' " the receiver asked in opposing Johnson's request for funds.

In the same document, the receiver says Johnson reported that he has recently sold a cache of gold and silver, a house in Santa Monica, Calif., and a Lamborghini and a Ferrari.

I hate to burst your bubble but........

Sycamore....

Of course you are right. We are hearing all these accusations through the mouth of a scoundrel. He's not to be trusted.

But if he has the emails, transcripts of recorded conversations, and bank records he just might...maybe...possibly... have enough hard evidence. Just because he's a thief, it doesn't mean that Reid isn't. In fact, I'm pretty sure he is.

Come on.... Only a single $600,000 bribe?

so ya going to go hold his hand loser? fry that puke!

I doubt if Reid is clean...but I doubt he will be caught!

I also doubt Reid is wrapped up with this wack-job, he's probably wrapped up with a lot more sophisticated bunch.

Hard to stay clean in Vegas for 50 years.

Sycamore

His fellow senators are not appalled by his behavior, they are just wondering how to get in on the action.

He's made himself rich buying and selling land around Vegas, much of it former Federal land. He's beholding to the Morman Mafia in Vegas, too. Harry has a Teflon exterior, accordingly.

In fact, I'm pretty sure he is.

Bingo - !

'Nuff said..........for now.

He should resign, but D's never do..........if he were an R, he'd already be gone.

I really wish they wring his scrawny little new........what a weasel.

MM

Better Harry than Suckie Schumsucker as majority leader. Harry voted pro 2A for years.
