My DailyKos 2013 WARNING that Toys R Us will go Bankrupt
https://twitter.com/laserhaas01/status/1058950966672744451.
The worse thing about - I told them so - is
Nobody listened then (mostly due to trolls like Adam B)
And
Nobody listens, even now.
Toys R Us didn't have to DIE!
Here's the details from my DK article, back in 2013; which tried to forewarn that - once we stopped Toys R Us going IPO (again) - Bankruptcy was inevitable!
http://finance.fortune.cnn.com/...
BUT - of course - Toys R Us has that "bankruptcy" option that is the REAL RICO Romney Gang's way of doing business. You can't blame them. If you know you could steal City Hall, because you own a federal prosecutor, you guarantee yourself NO Loss with a bankruptcy that stiffs all the creditors. (Like Traub did with Petters Ponzi stiffing Ritchie Capital on Polaroid and then giving Polaroid for free back to Traub).
FORTUNATELY - we have good reporters on the case. Rmuse is a journalist with PoliticusUSA.com and he just published this recent story asking the question "IF" (it should be when) - is Toys R Us going to file bankruptcy.
Best ENDING of Ted Cruz campaign - EVER

Today is my birthday; and it's 18 years DOJ, FBI & SEC aid & abet Sachs & Romney Racketeering
I'm making a gift to myself, turning 62, today; as Mitt Romney is soon to become a - Thieving fruk'r - U.S. Senator.
The gift is a master list of all the crimes & corruption Goldman Sachs & Bain Capital have benefited from; because the FBI, SEC, DOJ, U.S. Trustees, OIG & Public Integrity Section are betraying the public's trust, being willfully blind or duplicitous to Sachs & Romney's racketeering crimes.
As I prepare this master list, for me and you - here's some highlight Tweets - apropos...
Poking the bear...

It took 20 years to bring down Madoff, Marc Dreier, Tom Petters and Allen Stanford.
I've been at it 18 & 1/2 years, thus far.
Thousands lost billions of dollars in the defrauding Mattel, Fingerhut, eToys - etc; and people are DEAD!
Guess what they all have in common?
Willfully blind, manifest injustice aiding & abetting federal agents like Jay Clayton & Colm Connolly.
The willful blindness is what killed Toys R Us.
Australian Authorities Realize Banks Abuse Legal Process
https://twitter.com/laserhaas01/status/1056133773585080320.
As reported, by 'The Guardian' ([link:https://amp.theguardian.com/australia-news/2018/oct/26/labor-says-banking-inquiry-failed-to-expose-how-legal-system-used-to-crush-customers
|Here]), on Thursday, October 25rh, 2018, Australia's Labors banking royal commission submission says Australians being forced into ruthless court processes.
Labor says banking inquiry failed to expose how legal system used to crush customers.
Does this sound familiar?
As detailed by The Guardian:
In its submission to the commission, Labor says Australians who have disputes with their banks are being forced into ruthless and lengthy court processes, by corporations with deep pockets, and there is a significant gap in community legal services for small business customers.
The commission's final report is due out in February 2019; but Labor wants more testimonials after learning of "harrowing" instances of families losing farms 10p years old; and cases of attempted suicide.
Reportedly - a culture of greed - has resulted in an abuse of civil rights due process; and 10, 000 complaints where there is an "abuse of law"!
GROPE ALERT: Man Invokes Trump Defense on Soutwest Air
According to HuffPo - Authorities say Southwest Airlines passenger Bruce Alexander told them the president "says it's OK to grab women by their private parts.
The passenger, Bruce Michael Alexander, was likely referencing Donald Trumps remark in an infamous 2005 Access Hollywood recording that he could grab women by the pussy.
The complaint, filed Monday, alleges that Alexander made abusive sexual contact with a female passenger on a Southwest Airlines flight from Texas to New Mexico by touching the passengers breast, without their permission.
The female passenger has accused Alexander ― who was sitting in the row behind her ― of touching her no less than three times, recounting that she saw a hand that had thick fingers, were hairy and dirty fingernails.

World's Most Fortunate Pro Se Litigant Represented By Judge Posner Now Also Represented By David Bo
Source: Above the Law
This story needs one of those Individual Results May Vary disclaimers. Because when you launch a pro se case against the government, your case probably wont resemble William Bonds. Bond managed to get Judge Richard Posner to volunteer to assist him, and subsequently represent him after the Fourth Circuit stupidly demanded that Posner and co-counsel Matthew Dowd, not Bond, sign their names to the brief eviscerating the federal judiciary for its terminally flawed pro se process.
Now that the Fourth Circuit kicked the case in a remarkably lazy opinion, Bond is looking to take the fight to the U.S. Supreme Court, and it looks like hes got David Boies on his side now.
In a motion filed Friday afternoon, Bond seeks an extension to file his cert petition. But in a surprising twist, the motion is signed by David Boies, with Boies Schillers Joanna Wright and Emily Harris also listed on the papers. Judge Posner and Dowd are still featured as part of the team, but it appears as though Boies is taking the lead as counsel of record at this stage based on his experience with Supreme Court advocacy.
Getting a cert petition picked up is a little bit of alchemy, but a motion featuring both Boies and Judge Posner on the cover should raise more than a few eyebrows in the cert pool.

This is a case, long overdue, concerning the systemic abuse of indigent litigants.
Unfortunately, I've been prevented from reaching out to Judge Posner, due to a potential conflicts issues. It has been extremely frustrating, due to the fact that we have confessions of lying under oath, intentionally, in our eToys federal cases against Romney & Goldman Sachs; but the courts abuse me with 1 line dismisses stating (that lies under oath and homicides) are "insubstantial".
So - This case is AWESOME
I'm super excited to see this case go to the Supreme Ct; but very concerned given the status of the controlling mindsets.
Can't wait to see what rulings come from this case!
Regardless of you having a beef with your wife, neighbor, or some group, place or thing, we all have a Constitutional right to address a grievance, in court.
You either do it with a lawyer - or without.
Should you choose to go it alone, to sue your neighbor about his late night barking dog, or a prisoner on death row - this means you are "pro se".
Per Wikipedia:
This may occur in any court proceeding, whether one is the defendant or plaintiff in civil cases, and when one is a defendant in criminal cases. Pro se is a Latin phrase meaning "for oneself" or "on one's own behalf". This status is sometimes known as propria persona (abbreviated to "pro per" ) .
.
Judge Posner, now that he has retired from the bench has - chosen to be a "pro se" advocate activist; because there are systemic abuses of "pro se" parties - as if "pro se" litigants - are a 2nd class of citizens.
It is against the law to dismiss a "pro se" without a court doing an adjudication upon the merits.
The notion that summary dismissal of "pro se" litigants relieves the case load is also bogus. In cases such as mine, it has become a plague upon the courts, which suffers; because the schemes that turned into being "pro se" are issues of manifest injustice.
Bad faith parties get judges to dismiss cases on the argument it is a fact that 70% of "pro se" parties, have no frigging idea what they are doing; which tends to be a royal pain in the ass, wasting the courts time.
I use to be one of those people.
Regrettably, your average John Q Public also, misguidely, believes the courts are there to - help you; but that's not true.
Courts are forbidden, by law, from assisting a case.
Judges are there to judge!
In this case His Honor Judge Posner has decided that enough is enough; and has offered to turn a "pro se" case into a nationally significant cause of action.
I Agree with Judge Posner - it's time to address this case.

Erdogan calls for suspects to be tried in Turkey
Source: AP
Turkeys president has urged Saudi Arabia to reveal who ordered the savage murder of dissident journalist Jamal Khashoggi at the kingdoms consulate in Istanbul, and said the 18 Saudis suspected of carrying it out should be tried in Turkish courts.
Addressing lawmakers of his ruling party in Parliament Tuesday, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan says all those responsible for the killing must be punished regardless of rank from the person who ordered his death to those who carried out the killing.
He asked: where is the body of Jamal Khashoggi? For the first time, Erdogan also confirmed that a body double of Khashoggi was used as a decoy after he was killed.
Erdogans speech came as skepticism intensified about Saudi Arabias account that he died accidentally in its consulate in Istanbul
