While working at the Eastern District of New York’s Department of Justice in the early 1990’s, Andrew Weissmann was known as a “pathological liar”.  This is the same man who reportedly led the Mueller gang and is still trying to stop President Trump from ever sitting in the White House again.

On Wednesday we shared the story about Weissmann and the FBI and his actions in indicting the mob.

Attorney David Schoen shared with The Gateway Pundit his understanding of the Michael Sessa story yesterday.  Schoen as you recall, was the attorney for President Trump during one of the impeachments by the corrupt politicians in DC of President Trump.

Attorney Schoen shared the following:

TRENDING: BREAKING: January 6 Committee Unanimously Votes to Subpoena Trump

I consider this to be the most corrupt prosecution by the Department of Justice in the history of the Justice Department and I’m familiar with other candidates.”

According to Schoen:

I have said, from my personal experience at least with this case, I consider Andrew Weissmann to be the most ethically bankrupt prosecutor I have ever encountered, and that’s a pretty broad spectrum of prosecutors over the course of my career…

…I’ll tell you this, in all of this universe of misconduct that happened in this case, only one lawyer for the government was ever singled out that I am aware of , ever singled out by name by a judge.  And that’s federal judge, and Chief Judge at the time, Sifken wrote an order in the case characterizing Weissmann’s since of ethics in the case as “myopic” and something that needed to be addressed.

Judge Sifton succumbed to requests to remove Weissmann’s name from the opinion per a request from the EDNY but here is the document before it was changed showing Weissmann’s name:

According to a piece by Schoen at Sara Carter’s website:

Government informants have reported to us repeatedly that Weissmann and his colleagues lied to the court regularly and that the judges seemed intimidated.  One of Weissmann’s primary witnesses was caught on tape saying that he was told what he was to testify to over and over again.

When I began investigating these cases, I met with Vic Orena’s lawyer, one of New York’s most respected criminal defense lawyers for decades.  He was outraged by what he had seen from Weissmann.  He told me that he refers to Weissmann as “the pathological liar” after the SNL character and he chuckled.  I asked him how he could laugh about it.  He said that he has found Weissmann to be so evil and his behavior so outrageous that they never know what dirty trick he will use next and then deny and so all he could do was shake his head and laugh at how absurd it was that he kept getting away with it.

Finally, in 1997, it seemed like Weissmann would be stopped.  The Chief federal judge in Brooklyn wrote an opinion addressing the corrupt relationship between the agent and Scarpa that Weissmann had concealed, that by then finally had come to light.  In his opinion the judge singled out and excoriated Weissmann by name for his “myopic” view of his ethical obligations and his “reprehensible” conduct in withholding this critical evidence from defendants.  [Noted by Schoen above.] However, Weissmann’s boss wrote to the judge asking him to remove Weissmann’s name, for fear it would impact his career.  Shockingly, the judge complied and issued a new opinion without Weissmann’s name.  I have both opinions and the letter.  This clearly set Weissmann on the path to believing correctly that he would be able to make a career out of engaging in prosecutorial misconduct and obtaining wrongful convictions with impunity.

At the same time in the early 1990’s Weissmann and his team were using a mafia hitman, Greg Scarpa, responsible for over 50 murders, as a source in their cases against the mob.

Weissmann and his colleagues claimed that there was an internal feud within the so-called Colombo organized crime family in New York.  It is now clear that this “war” was a battle initiated by perhaps the most corrupt FBI agent in history, in league with government informants.  The agent chose sides in the family and pitted one faction against another.  The agent worked in tandem with a brutal mafia killer, Gregory Scarpa [below], who admitted to over 50 murders and actually committed many more.  The agent effectively gave Scarpa a license to kill and, according to Scarpa’s son, who I have interviewed extensively, the agent participated in crimes with Scarpa (and his son), including several murders, and was paid for his help in providing information to Scarpa about his next victims.  Ultimately the agent was charged with several murders and with helping on others.  All of this took place while the agent was Weissmann’s case agent.

In fact, we now know that in 1992, when Scarpa was arrested on a gun charge in the middle of his killing spree, the corrupt agent went to Weissmann and his colleagues to get Scarpa out of the charges and they intervened, continuing his license to kill.  And killing is exactly what Scarpa did.  He did not confine his killing to fellow mafiosos.  Rather, through the license Scarpa effectively was given, completely innocent civilians were killed, including a 17 year old boy and a doctor.

When Weissmann ultimately was confronted with indisputable evidence of the corrupt relationship between the agent and Scarpa, according to a former federal prosecutor involved with the cases, Weissmann instructed her that the government had no obligation to disclose this corruption to the defendants in any of the cases they were working, including cases in which Scarpa had been the source of information against the defendant and in which the corrupt agent testified under oath.

A 302 filled out by Wiessmann covering this time period was eventually unearthed.  The 302 had numerous edits on it.  This 302 was filled out by Weissmann two months before the Michael Sessa trial where killer Scarpa was used as a source by the FBI.  This 302 shows that Weissmann knew that Scarpa was an FBI informant but this was withheld from the trial.  Sessa sits in prison now 30 years because of this omission.

FD-302 (Rev. 3-10-82) – Weissmann by Jim Hoft on Scribd

Andrew Weissmann is one of the most corrupt individuals to work in the DOJ.  He doesn’t seem to care who he hurts, it’s all about the end game. 

None of Weissmann’s actions in the Sessa case prevented Weissmann from running the Enron Task force with Robert Mueller which led to over 80,000 Arthur Andersen professionals needlessly losing their jobs in the early 2000s. 

None of Weissmann’s actions prevented four Merrill Lynch professionals from facing time in prison, one in solitary, who were later found innocent in the mid-2000s.

None of this prevented Weissmann from leading the Mueller witchhunt in its attempted coup of the President of the United States.  The list of unethical and arguably criminal actions by Weissmann in the Mueller witchhunt is as well unending.

This was the beginning of the many corrupt acts attributable to Andrew Weissmann and the DOJ over the past three decades. 

Weissmann today is still trying to get President Trump.

Real wages under Joe Biden have declined for a record 18 months. That is catastrophic!

These numbers are devastating for low and middle-class working Americans.

Steve Bannon dedicated a major part of his show on Thursday to the devastating economic news. This was a rant for the ages. Remember this in the months ahead. Remember what Joe Biden, Jerome Powell, and Democrats have done to your family’s well-being.

Steve Bannon: This is signal, not noise. This sets the framework for so much that you want to try to accomplish your life, your ability to have that time spiritually, the things that you want to do, to develop yourself, it’s all within an economic framework. And the harder times are, the harder it is just to get by. And particularly people have saved up so much and being able to now enjoy the benefits of it, it gets to be horrific. So here’s what it is, what we’re hurtling towards and we’ve talked about this is a credit crisis, not about stocks dropping, it’s not about that’s all coming. But there’s something bigger. There’s a credit crisis and not just credit of corporations. Cortez did an amazing job of talking about investment grade bonds. That’s the best companies in the world. It’s all money good. You buy that and you clip the coupons right. You get the returns right? And they’re never huge because you’re buying a quality credit. What are those now, 20, 30%? You’re getting wiped out in that. The crisis we’re talking about is a sovereign debt crisis. We’re talking about governments, we’re talking about governments that have had this thing called fiscal domination.

That means the political class spends it, spends and spends and the central banks just print the money. They just print the money, continue to print the money. OK? That game is coming to an end. It’s coming to an end. We’ve warned about this and now you see it’s going to come to an end. And the carnage around that, you know what Steve, what Rick Santelli calls structural issues, structural issues are going to be massive in any bankruptcy. And this is what we’re looking at. A prepackaged bankruptcy. A prepack in a bankruptcy you have a creditors committee, right? The creditors committee kind of makes the decision. It’s no longer the management team, it’s no longer the shareholders because you’re senior in the capitalisation table. The debt comes first and then the equity. So when you have a crisis, a prepack or bankruptcy, the creditors take over the accounts, payable guys and the junk bonds and the senior bank debt that all forms a committee and everyone gets a say. So every gets a seat at the table and they just kind of determine what’s going on. Our country is bankrupt. It’s bankrupt. It’s just absolutely bankrupt and it’s a business model that doesn’t work.

You can’t fund this anymore unless you continue to print money. This is going to bury ourselves now in your own life and bury future generations. Okay? That creditors committee is going to be formed. It’s going to be formed politically. And here’s the whole purpose of this show is to make sure that MAGA, to make sure that you, the deplorables are not just on the creditors committee but you essentially chair the creditors committee. This is why november 8, the sweeping victory. Alan fung in Rhode Island. Two Joe Kent in Washington. Three. Those seats in Oregon. The seats in the Rio Grande Valley. The Hispanic Americans, right. This coalition we’re putting together, when we start winning these seats, seats in deeply in Maryland, six, we’ll talk about all these seats. We could win the governorships in these Blues flipping Minnesota’s house, flipping Nevada’s house, flipping New Mexico’s House. When you do that, that is political power, raw political power, and it puts you as the chairman of the creditors committee, right? Not Tucker Carlson and not Donald Trump and not Ron DeSantis and not Steve Bannon. Not you. And your wisdom and judgment get to have the leverage to say, guess what?

There’s got to be a way we’re going to rethink this, and we’re just not going to take we’re just not going to get crushed anymore. Let me play. I’ll bring Brad in for a second, but let me play, Steve. I got to play. This is what the Wall Street intelligentsia, the cheerleaders of this narrative that has broken this freaking country on the rack. This is what they’re saying this morning. This is in the worst print of inflation in the history of this nation. The history of this nation.

Things are looking good for Republican senate candidate Blake Masters in Arizona.

The race is tightening, Masters has gained ground and is within striking distance of Democrat incumbent Mark Kelly.

Their recent debate may have had something to do with this, as Kelly looked unprepared.

Breitbart News reports:

TRENDING: BREAKING: January 6 Committee Unanimously Votes to Subpoena Trump

Exclusive — Poll Shows Blake Masters Has Closed Gap with Democrat Mark Kelly in Arizona

Recent polling exclusively obtained by Breitbart News shows that Republican Blake Masters, looking to unseat Democrat Sen. Mark Kelly in Arizona, has gained momentum in the Grand Canyon State and is now within striking distance of the incumbent.

The polling conducted by OnMessage Inc., on behalf of Sentinel Action Fund, the super PAC affiliated with Heritage Action, the political arm of the prominent conservative think tank Heritage Foundation, showed Masters has been gaining momentum and is within the margin of error of Kelly after a spending blitz to the help the Republicans.

The group’s first poll was conducted from September 6 to 11, with 400 likely voters in Arizona with a 4.9 percent margin of error. At the time, the poll showed that Kelly was at 50 percent while Masters was at 40 percent. Additionally, the poll at the time found that Marc Victor, the Libertarian candidate, was at six percent, and five percent were undecided.

Now, the most recent poll showed that Masters has the momentum going for him. The polling was done from October 8 to 10, with 600 likely voters and a tighter four percent margin of error. It showed that the race has tightened as Kelly is now below 50 percent, at 46 percent, with Masters at 43 percent. Victor was also at four percent, while seven percent was still undecided.

This is another one of those races that Democrats probably did not expect to be competitive.

The closer we get to the midterms, the more it seems like Republicans could take the Senate.

Dr. Robert Malone was in Toronto last weekend for the screening of the new movie “Uninformed Consent”.

During the pre-party, Dr. Malone was interviewed by Bright Lights News.

Below is the interview where Dr. Malone shared the following.

“The boundary is children,” and a unified movement, through pragmatic and honest self-awareness, is pivotal to avoid the very divisive behaviors that gave rise to the global resistance. It is incumbent of us to remain unified if we are preserve a free world for our children.

Dr. Byram Bridle also Headlined the Toronto Premiere of Uninformed Consent. You can hear him speak about the movie at this link. Dr. Bridle is a true scientist, a gentleman, and another key leader/COVID hero of the global health freedom movement.

The description of Dr. Malone’s interview includes the following:

As policies continue to be rolled out lockstep around the world with the same narrative and response to Covid-19, transgender issues, transhumanism and climate change, Dr. Robert Malone, mRNA vaccine technology inventor, says the resistance must remain unified and not be fragmented by those perpetrating their agendas. Facing allegations of being “controlled opposition” himself, Dr. Malone warns that divisions being created within the resistance follows historical patterns and that the cause must be put above individual agendas on how to best move forward against the homogenization of nations and each citizen.

Dr. Malone also reveals that Moderna was created by the CIA with In-Q-Tel, its investment arm, driving much of the push for mRNA vaccines that will soon take the place of traditional vaccines, giving a few companies, like Pfizer and Moderna, a continued stranglehold on the marketplace.

“The boundary is children” and only a unified movement through pragmatic and honest self-awareness are pivotal if we are to avoid the pitfalls of the very behaviours that have created an unprecedented global resistance to shape the free world that our children deserve.

Interview conducted at Toronto premiere of www.uninformedconsent.ca Oct. 8, 2022.

Here is Dr. Malone’s interview from last weekend.

A judge ruled that Mexican tourist visa holders can legally enter the United States and accept payments for plasma donations.

“Effective immediately, anyone with a B-1/B-2 visa (including a Border Cross Card) may enter the United States to donate plasma for compensation. This is due to the Court’s Order entered into on September 16, 2022,” according to the announcement on CSL Plasma website.

CSL Plasma operates one of the world’s largest and most sophisticated plasma collection networks, with more than 300 plasma collection centers in U.S., Europe and China and employs over 12,000 employees.

From their news release:

TRENDING: BREAKING: January 6 Committee Unanimously Votes to Subpoena Trump

CSL applauds the United States District Court’s decision to issue a preliminary injunction preventing the United States Customs and Border Protection (CBP) from continuing to enforce its ban on plasma donations by Mexican nationals who enter the U.S. on a B-1/B-2 visa.

The decision recognizes the critical importance of the need for plasma in the manufacture of life-saving therapies for hundreds of thousands of people. We are excited to welcome back Mexican donors to our plasma collection centers and appreciate their vital contribution to the plasma supply.

We will be reaching out to Mexican national donors soon to invite them to return to our centers and continue the life-saving act of plasma donation.

Since the COVID-19 epidemic began in March of 2020, there has been a shift in the tacit acceptance of blood plasma donations. At the onset of the epidemic, DHS restricted all but “necessary travel” across land borders.

CBP’s Office of Field Operations, after a review, the Office issued a guidance memorandum on June 14, 2021 clarifying that plasma donation is considered labor for hire that is impermissible for B-1/B-2 visa holders, regardless of their “essential” classification, according to the court document.

“Effective immediately, U.S. Customs and Border Protection advises that donation of plasma for compensation in the U.S. by B1/B2 non-immigrant visa holders is a violation of the terms of their visa and crossing the border for that express purpose will no longer be permitted under any circumstances. Selling plasma constitutes labor for hire in violation of B-1 non-immigrant status, as both the labor (the taking of the plasma) and accrual of profits would occur in the U.S., with no principal place of business in the foreign country,” CBP said.

“You can’t get paid for donating blood, but you can for plasma. For thousands of Mexicans living near the U.S. border, this created an opportunity. They would cross into the U.S. on short-term visas, donate plasma and return home cash in hand. But in June of last year, the federal government closed an immigration loophole that allowed this practice. Now two international pharmaceutical companies, Grifols and CSL, are suing the government to allow these trips to resume, claiming that up to 10% of all plasma donated in the U.S. came from Mexicans crossing the border,” NPR reported.

Donors can get up to $1,000 according to CSL Plasma.

After US district judge Tanya Chutkan granted the CSL Plasma motion for a preliminary injunction, the company announced on Tuesday the opening of additional plasma collection centers in Stockton and Hayward, California, bringing the number of CSL Plasma donation centers in the state to five. A sixth center in Citrus Heights is set to open in summer 2023.

According to a peer-reviewed study published in The Lancet, plasma obtained through plasmapheresis from paid donors carries a higher risk of blood-borne disease than that from unpaid donors.

From the study:

In Mexico in 1986, there was an outbreak of HIV-1 infection among paid donors. We recovered frozen plasma from nine of these HIV-1-positive paid donors and measured antibodies to hepatitis C virus. No donor was an injecting drug user or reported homosexual contacts. Seven proved positive for hepatitis C infection. The paid donors are probably, therefore, infected with multiple blood-borne diseases during plasmapheresis. Paid plasma donors in less-developed countries such as Mexico, India, and China are infected with HIV-1 and hepatitis C or B virus.

Plasma obtained from less-developed countries has been trafficked through station countries, where brokers relabel its source and re-export it to the fractionation industry, as happened in Canada and Switzerland and, later, with Austria and South Africa. Thus, commercial plasmapheresis in less-developed countries puts donors and recipients at risk by contamination of the plasma pool by blood-borne pathogens.

Recipients of products derived from plasma should have the right to know the country of origin of the plasma; this information should appear in the label. Patients with hepatitis C should be asked about history of plasma selling or of having received plasma-derivative products. Many patients with unknown risk factors for hepatitis C virus can probably be placed in this risk group, as was proposed a decade ago for HIV.

A freshman football player, who had no prior issues, suffered a cardiac arrest and collapses during practice on Wednesday at Benedictine Military School in Savannah, Georgia.

Head athletic trainer Jack Holland said the freshman, who was not named by the school in accordance with HIPAA regulations, was unable to breathe on his own for 38 minutes and was shocked three times by an automatic external defibrillator (AED) in an effort to revive him, Savannah Now reported.

According to Benedictine’s head coach, Danny Britt, the athlete is in the intensive care unit of a local hospital and has begun responding to voice commands. Doctors said his brain and all his organs seemed to be fine.

Savannah Now reported:

Benedictine trainers Brian Tuten and Ed Livingston performed CPR until an ambulance arrived and used the AED machine. Their quick reactions were critical, both Holland and Britt said.

“They were right there immediately, thank God, to do their work, and they legitimately saved his life,” Britt said. “They did CPR until the EMTs got there and kept him alive.”

Britt said the player was on the sideline during a break in practice when he went down. Teammates called for the trainers right away — and everything seemed to stop, except for the work that Tuten and Livingston did.

“Everything just stopped, but Brian and Ed were so professional — they did an amazing job,” said Britt, who rode in the ambulance with the player to the hospital.

“The kids were obviously shaken. We cleared the way for the ambulance to get on the field and then got the rest of the team in the locker room,” Britt said. “The doctors said his brain and all his organs seem to be fine, and we have to thank Brian (Tuten) and Ed (Livingston) for that.”

“He never had any prior issues with anything like this,” Holland said Thursday. “It came completely out of the blue, and we have no clue what caused it. We were following the ambulance to the hospital and thought this whole thing could have turned another way. He’s not out of the woods yet, but he’s much more stable today.

The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors held a press conference earlier today ” to discuss the start of early voting, how to track your ballot, and misconceptions about voter registration and the voting rolls.”

As The Gateway Pundit recently reported,  Maricopa County will “require an official Press Pass for members of the press to enter its facilities and/or cover events related to the 2022 General Election,” according to a new order from the County.

We later reported that TGP correspondent Jordan Conradson was blocked access to Maricopa County’s election-related events in a clear effort to silence us and stop us from reporting on election discrepancies in Maricopa County.

BREAKING: Maricopa County ‘s Ministry of Truth BLOCKS The Gateway Pundit Reporter Access To 2022 Midterm Election Coverage In County

TRENDING: BREAKING: January 6 Committee Unanimously Votes to Subpoena Trump

This is partially because of the incredibly botched 2022 Primary Election in Maricopa County. The Gateway Pundit previously reported on the election day incompetence in Maricopa County, where Republican voters were turned away from the polls due to printer malfunctions and ballots not being available while facing other issues stemming from the County’s shady felt-tipped pen recommendation.

We also reported that the RINO-controlled County hired 145 more Democratic activists than Republicans to watch the polls, which is likely illegal. They are now facing a lawsuit as a result.

BREAKING: Maricopa County Election Day Incompetence – PRINTERS NOT WORKING, Voters Told They’ve ALREADY VOTED, Polling Locations Not Seen On AZSOS Webpage – UPDATES

Conradson was told by a county employee that he was not “unbiased,” and therefore, he would not be granted entry.

The County employee also told Conradson that he thinks he is “dishonest.”

Therefore, no left-wing media outlet should be allowed to cover the election. However, that is not the case.

But these people decide what honesty means and who is or is not dishonest.

Maricopa County sent out the following media release to members of the media earlier this week.

Watch the full press conference and confrontation with County employees below.

County Employee: I’m pretty sure we sent you a denial because you did not meet the criteria.

Conradson: Can you tell me what part of the criteria I didn’t meet? Because I’ve seen the criteria and I meet all of them

County Employee: You don’t meet the criteria of being a legitimate news organization.

Conradson: What is a legitimate news organization

County Employee: Unbiased.

Conradson: Unbiased? So does CNN meet that Criteria? Does Arizona Republic meet that criteria?

County Employee: I would refer you to your email.

Conradson:  “You’re not a bona fide journalist.” So, what is a bona fide journalist?

County Employee: I think it’s somebody who can report the facts honestly.

Conradson: I do report the facts honestly. You don’t think I do?

County Employee: No.

Conradson: Do you think I’m dishonest?

County Employee:  Yes.

Conradson:  Well 2.5 million readers a day don’t think I am dishonest. They actually trust me, unlike these guys who you let in. So, it’s up to you guys whether or not I’m dishonest or honest?

County Employee: You have the email. You have our response.

Conradson: Okay, so it’s your opinion that I’m not honest. Is that what you’re saying?

County Employee:  I’m saying that you do not meet our criteria and you can refer to the email.

Conradson: Well, my email says that I am not a bona fide journalist, and you basically just called me dishonest. So, is that your opinion of me or is that the facts?

County Employee: I don’t have an opinion of you.

Conradson:  Well, it seems like you just voiced your opinion saying, “you’re not honest.”

County Employee: Is there anything else you would like to discuss here?

Conradson: I would like to go and report on the event and show people the truth about what is going on and ask honest questions.

County Employee: You did not get a press credential.

Conradson: Because you don’t think I am honest. Is that why?

County Employee: I do not think you are part of a bona fide news organization.

Conradson: Why?

County Employee: Because you do not report the facts.

Conradson: You don’t think I report the facts.

County Employee: No, I do not.

Conradson: So, it’s a matter of your opinion. We have 2.5 million daily readers that consider us a bona fide news organization.

County Employee: That’s your opinion.

Conradson: No, it’s the truth. I just gave you a statistic of people who consider us a bona fide news organization. On the other hand, with these guys, nobody thinks they’re a bona fide news organization except for you guys. You’re kind of in the minority there. That’s why their viewership and readership is tanking. Nobody wants to hear their crap. They lie. Give me an example of a news organization that you guys alllow.

County Employee: I think we’re done here.
