Holder is Pissed Off About Criticism:Tough CHIT He's A Wall Street Tool

Many have seen some of the more recent lambastes of Eric Holder, about the fact that he failed (miserably) in the task of reigning in and busting Wall Street fraudsters. Slapping fraudsters on the wrist, is a good way to cause a global financial sysem to collapse.

More recently, Eric Holder was being challenged, over and over, after Matt Taibbi's book was discussed. Just weeks ago, Holder was cornered and responded angrily. He lashed out at his critics, stating he was pissed off at people who don't work in the Department of Justice aren't qualified to criticize results.

REALLY! - Well, Piss on You Eric Holder, your tenure as a Wall Street Fraud tool trickled down and peed on U.S.!

[center][font size=4 color=burnt]Holder's Justice Dept. Shielded Romney's [/font][font size=4 color=navy]Bain Capital & Goldman Sachs[/font][/center]

In the picture above, Romney is the head of the crime family. To your left, is the picture of Paul Traub (with glasses) and Traub's partner Marc Dreier. Just below that is the picture of Tom Petters. Paul Traub was partners with Tom Petters and Marc Dreier. Tom Petters is doing 50 years in prison and Marc Dreier is doing 20.

Paul Traub is doing zero, nada - Zilch!

Below Romney is Goldman Sachs; and below them is a picture of United States Trustee Region 3 (also general counsel of Executive Office United States Trustees) Roberta DeAngelis. Without the willful blindness of DeAngelis, the Bankruptcy Ring could never get away with the organized crimes. She was supposed to report the confessions to lying under oath to the United States Attorney having jurisdiction. But - that would have been none other than - Colm F (friggin) Connolly.

As many of you know, moi has been trying, for a decade plus, to try to get an investigation and/or indictment of Goldman Sachs and Bain Capital. That indictment should have immediately transpired under Eric Holder; but his high-n-mightyness Eric Holder, has done even worse a job of prosecuting Wall Street frauds, than that his predecessors John Ashcroft, Alberto Gonzales and Michael Mukasey.

We have over 100 crimes in the cases of Stage Stores, Kay Bee, The Learning Company and eToys; but Eric Holders regime kept saying - over and over - that there's nothing to prosecute.

Really! Do confessions of deliberately lying under oath to a federal judge, 33 times - COUNT!

If your or I had done the same crimes that Bain Capital and Goldman Sachs achieved, via their attorneys and hidden executives, we would be serving 200 years in prison. But Holder bent down and licked the feet of his Wall Street lords. Romney and Blankfein can rest easy and steal as much as they want, openly, cause they are never going to be prosecuted.

Now his lordship Eric Holder is now back at his law firm Covington & Bove, getting $3 million a year and he claim it has nothing to do with his failures to prosecute.

PUHHLLLLLEEEEAAAASSSEEE!

At issue is the fact that any 1st year law student can prosecute our case of Wall Street frauds (Bain Cap. Goldman Sachs and Wells Fargo involved); but everyone gives up knowing that the "Fix" is "IN". Many people, who aren't victims of the fraud upon me and my fellow eToys.com parties of interests, tend to say it simply isn't worth it, you can't beat city hall, nor can you defeat oligarchs the likes of Mitt Romney.

Hmmm.... wonder what Paul Stanford, Tom Petters, Marc Dreier and Bernie Madoff have to say about that!

We can readily prove, to anyone that gives a damn, his wannabe highness Mitt Romney benefited from organized crimes. Though Bain Capital and Goldman Sachs have gotten off, thus far, 'Scot Free', concerning Stage Stores, Kay Bee, The Learning Company and eToys (among others) - that doesn't mean they will ALWAYS get away with their organized crimes.

Guarantee you - whoever Bernie Sanders puts in office as Attorney General - won't sit idle by!

The Learning Company Fraud

In 1999, the MNAT.com law firm helped with the Delaware merger of The Learning Company with Mattel Toys. Reportedly, almost immediately, Mattel investors lost billions of dollars, due to the merger (see L.A. Times article on $3 Billion loss - HERE)

However, there was no investigation and/or prosecution, of who scammed who; because the Delaware Assistant United States Attorney, Colm Connolly (all of sudden) became and MNAT law firm partner and;

POOF - no investigation of The Learning Company fraud (owned by Romney, Bain Cap & others)
[br][hr][br]
[/center] [font size=3]
Additional Billion Dollars Crimes While Colm Connolly was partners of MNAT
[/font]
[/center]
In our eToys cases, Kay Bee and Stage Stores (among others) there are organized crimes, all over the place, by Bankruptcy Rings of attorneys who betray their court approved clients trusts. But you won't see any investigation and/or prosecution by the Delaware United States Attorney's office -

Because that person was Colm F Connolly!

That's right, prior to The Learning Company $3 Billion fraud, Colm F Connolly was the Assistant United States Attorney, who then became a partner of MNAT, in 1999. Colm remained as an MNAT partner until August 2, 2001, when GW Bush nominated him for the sole position as the One and Only United States Attorney over Delaware cases.

See Colm Connolly's resume at the Department of Justice website ( HERE ).

Hence, we have musical chairs. One day Colm Connolly is the Assistant United States Attorney, in Wilmington, DE - where The Learning Company merger with Mattel resulted in a $3 Billion loss. MNAT was one of the law firms involved. Colm becomes a partner of MNAT (see the DOJ resume - HERE) and POOF, no investigation and/or prosecution occurs. Romney, Bain and associated parties now get 12 million shares of Mattel.

Then Kay Bee, Stage Stores and eToys frauds transpire between 1999 and 2001, while Colm Connolly is an MNAT partner. When yours truly reports bribery attempts, in 2001, POOF, Colm Connolly goes back to the Department of Justice and becomes the top hauncho, numero uno head federal prosecutor over Bain Capital and eToys cases (STage Stores is in Houston).

For seven years, we keep sending proofs of crimes - including CONFESSIONS (by Paul Traub, Barry Gold and MNAT) to lying under oath and/or hiding conflicts of interests, in federal bankruptcy cases. Never once does the Delaware Department of Justice tell any of us that Colm Connolly was a partner of the firm we seek an indictment of.

Instead, it goes on for those 7 years that Colm Connolly keeps refusing to investigate and/or prosecute MNAT, Bain Capital, Paul Traub, Michael Glazer and many other crimes that any 1st year law student would have a field day, career making, prosecution happy time, convicting parties.

[center][font size=5] DOJ Shuts Down Public Corruption Task Force [/font][/center]

Then, in mid/late 2007, proof is given to yours truly, about Colm Connolly's secret. On December 7, 2007, we immediately go to the Department of Justice where the Public Corruption Task Force is housed and report the crimes. A Federal Judge's Clerk assists me, instructing to get each and every page Time Stamped/Clocked. Guess what happens to the Public Corruption Task Force just weeks later (March 2008).

They SHUT IT DOWN the Task Force and actually (reportedly) threaten career prosecutors to be silent!
(see L.A. Times article "Shake-up roils federal prosecutors&quot .

[center][font size=4 color=navy] Scolding and Pissing Off Holder [/font][/center]
[br]
Some of the scathing items against former United States Attorney General includes, but is not limited to, Matt Taibbi's book "The Divide: incandescent indictment of the American justice-gap" that is talked about at BoingBoing (here). The remarks include notes that the Department of Justice is on "bureaucratic autopilot... a steel trap for losers and a greased pipeline to money, power and impunity for the winners.

Another, similar remark on the status quo, from Boing's notes of Taibbi's book, is this one that;

Meanwhile, Eric Holder's "Collateral Consequences" doctrine -- conceived under Clinton, revised under GWB, and perfected under Obama -- tells federal prosecutors to punish big companies carefully, even for the worst crimes imaginable, in order to protect the innocents who work for those companies and rely on them.



[font size=5] Sellout Eric Holder says He is Pissed [/font]
[br]
Another online remark scolding Eric Holder, comes from Dan Froomkin of "The Intercept" (the pic above being from Froomkin's piece). As noted by MR. Froomkin, Holder takes umbrage with criticism of his tenure. Dan's online item quotes Eric Holder in the OpEd titled "Holder Defends Record of Not Prosecuting Financial Fraud", as Holder stated;

“It’s an easy thing for people who are not a part of the process” to “ask questions,” he said. “It pisses me off, on the other hand,” for people “not conversant” in the process to “somehow say that I did something that was inconsistent with my oath or that I’m not a person of integrity.”

“I’m proud to be back at the firm,” he said. “It’s a great firm. And I’m proud of the work I did at the Justice Department.”



Additionally, the Intercept journalist details the following specifics that;


Holder had all the statutory authority he needed to prosecute straightforward crimes such as robosigning fraud, perjury in front of Congress by Goldman Sachs executives,

or for that matter, HSBC’s money laundering for Mexican drug cartels.

He {Holder} simply chose not to.

(In response to another questioner, he denied that any of his decisions not to prosecute were based on the massive legal teams that were fielded against the government.) Moreover, he actively waved off offers of additional help such as the suggestion from Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, that Congress give him more staff for his Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities Working Group, or extend the statute of limitations on some crimes.{ emphasis added }

[font size=4]HAAS v ROMNEY: Seeking Indictments of Bain Cap & GSachs [/font]

There are over 100 online articles written about our eToys related cases, where Paul Traub, Barry Gold, the Traub Bonacquist & Fox ("TBF&quot law firm, along with Tom Petters and Marc Dreier Ponzi's, haven't been investigated and/or prosecuted, because Goldman Sachs, Bain Capital and Mitt Romney benefited from massive billion dollar frauds.

Colm Connolly was the Delaware United States Attorney, who was partners in the crimes. Minnesota Assistant U.S. Attorney James Lackner had a brother (Marty) who was a feeder fund to Petters Ponzi. Larry (Reservitz) Reynolds was giving these fraudsters all my information, because he raided my files at night, sitting only 25 feet away from me, at another entity.

Larry Reynolds confessed laundering $12 Billion for Tom Petters Ponzi, while inside Witness Protection Program.

Marty Lackner, involved in Petters, while brother of head of DOJ's Criminal Division J. Lackner

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxwas suicided!

When is enough - ENOUGH!


Just how many serious, million to one shot, Wall Street related crimes must there be to transpire, before the
Department of Justice admits it made mistakes and does something about it. Thus far, it is a miracle that yours truly isn't dead yet, as there are many untimely homicides in this case (eToys shareholder Robert Alber had to shoot/kill career criminal Michael Sesseyoff and Jack Wheeler wound up dead in a dump after going to Colm Connolly's office building).

When moi reported much of these very large crimes and issues of bad federal agents to the Public Corruption Task Force in Los Angeles, that special unit was SHUT Down and (reportedly) career federal prosecutors were threatened to keep their mouths shut - Or Else! (See my filed complaint - Time Stamped - HERE and Los Angeles Times "Shake-up roils federal prosecutors&quot

Erich Holder had nothing to hide about this case, as most of it happened and/or began, during GW Bush's administrations watch; but then USAG Eric Holder's staff went out of their way to bury the case too.

When President Obama was elected, I jumped for joy. And when he put in another non white as the head of the Department of Justice there was the hope that justice might finally come; but it didn't.

Dan Froomkin points out that both Holder and even Ben Bernanke talked a tough game name; but they no longer have substance to their banter, as Froomkin concludes that both former USAG Eric Holder and Fed man Ben Bernanke could have done more to assure investigations and/or prosecutions against Wall Street fraudsters;

Crisis, perhaps we should look at a system set up to enable some of these transactions and hold those responsible feet to the fire, must have been plenty members if Congress in with Wall Street when they voted for this one.

Including U.S. Attorney Chris Christie giving his former boss, John Ashcroft, a $50 million No Bid Contract (Deferred Prosecution Agreement).

Do you remember what they used to call it when a (former or current) federal prosecutor, received millions of dollars, for forget about doing a prosecution?

Just sayin...........

If Mitt, Bain Cap., and Goldman Sachs are doing all the crimes noted above - openly - getting away totally 'Scot Free'..
