Proof of public Corruption examine


Adjacent profits are gained in purchase of information 
Non profit lobby hides, assemblies
And congressional lobby laborers
Caught in data shortage
Corrupt a report purchasing shares of
Corruptible budget items
Obstructing legislation 

Creating false pretense for arrest
Arrest of defined confine 
The hide
The title
The bonds ageing interest
Non profit
Must eat here at specified time
In thousand oaks California 
Only at eves Arch, after days end

In Ventura at Catholic charities 
The food reception is all day Charity 
And none are required

Premium Member Nosey Nelly

She should have been an investigative reporter
She is the first in the know
The first on the scene
Asking questions on top of questions
None of them her business

What she does with this knowledge is a mystery
Is she a novelist?
Does she have a blog?
Her nosey ways have alienated most of us
Annoying many
None of us ask

letters and science

letter and science
dissect-able fraud in statements as advertised to the press
abuse's of power by poor people to create recession
this is underpinning the news
to prefect the crime knowingly able to.....
post rebuttal after the word of crime is witnessed
public relations
public policy
political relations

Damage control for a politician is the response to bad press. It often takes the form of a press conference or news release that rebuts or provides a positive spin regarding the original bad press. It can be a significant part of a political staff and is often referred to as the Crisis Management Team. Damage control is also we a politician is playing defence in the political arena

from a non profitable transaction being a representative in government and out front of a church in tax certification of tax shelter
these crimes are pivot points from a non free speech

all of this investigative journalism finds this pattern of corruption in time

Premium Member Incendiary

Mauis fire is already in print, a book titled fire and fury
Is doing a stint' published four days after the killer event
By a dr Miles Stones,
Its has eywitness accounts and results of investigative
Time; spent, this by government bodies so renowed of
Their speed.? Well be that as it may I suppose i might
Have a read? of the lack of foreknowledge by local police
The terror of civilians, and the ensuing relief.? That we all
Are the blame, Have i heard such before.? Oh i heard there
Was a boat at sea on it also fire did roar.? Seems so strange
Cause maybe someone drooped a cigerette to floor?
 I don't want to be Gloomy? To become just a drag.' 
Beoause its all light and
Joy in the global crews view' Hey you all take care now.'
Thats the new normal to do.'  Yet is it all normal.? Maybe
I'll have a think? Take up playing patience and pour out
A stiff drink.'

Poor Hygiene Picked From Eugene

A shiny forest of an armpit
By Ninety-Five percent a cesspit;
A quick verifying touch of this
By Ridiculed Christopher Elvis
Also brandishing a moist pelvis,
For long months now excused by Doris 
His Understanding, Hopeful Girlfriend 
But clearly seeking its abrupt end.

Anew, Elvis investigative finger
Goes for The Sticky Feeling that would linger,
His Poor Hygiene Principal Bell Ringer
And Change-for-the-Better Soft Singer;
To his Dad something he should be killed for,
As he keeps wondering what he’s waiting for,
Already by him pronounced A Serious Matter
And on Offending Elvis’ Head a metallic clatter …

His show of disgust had to be perfected
Because Elvis has a wisdom rejected
“All the stops pulling out to pick poor hygiene
From his interactions with Useless Eugene!”

Premium Member Berkowitz - Terry

The arrest of David Berkowitz ended the growing terror faced by New York City,
but investigative journalist Maury Terry uncovered much more to this story.

Walter Cronkite and Why He Was So Right

Walter was so right,
In his fight for right, 
While not too far to the right.

Walter was a shining light,
A guiding light,
All his weight behind the light.

His quotes right on the money,
But not for the sake of the money,
His eyes on everything but money.

Walter told us we need more independent news outlets,
Not a few biased outlets,
Or ones that give only those up to no good outlets.

But most of all we want more than one editing room,
More than one news room, 
To give investigative journalism more leg room.

Premium Member A Witch-Hunting We Will Go

Puritans gather in Congress' hallowed halls, faces glum
  Trampling truth, blowing horns, banging the drum
    Of blazing envy, wrath and sloe-eyed sleaze

Committee member, moralizing minions, on their knees
  Digging up dirt on disapproved-of nominees
    Judgment fled to tone-deaf decrees

Careful, righteous pols, so sure the public will be pleased
  Voters care about jobs, not investigative sleaze
    And when the voting booth decent folks flee
      ~ The doors open wide for all the Crazies

Premium Member A Witch-Hunting We Will Go

Puritans gather in Congress' hallowed halls, faces glum
   Trampling truth, blowing horns, banging drums
      Of blazing envy, wrath, and sloe-eyed sleaze

Pelosi-Schumer's moralizing minions on their knees
   Digging up dirt on disapproved-of nominees
      Judgment fled to Pandora-box divorce decrees

Careful, all you righteous pols, so sure the public will be pleased
   Most voters care about the economy, not investigative sleaze
      -- And whenever decent folks flee, the door opens for the military

Investigative of a Native

Investigative of a Native

Report ironically appeared investigative,
About some people apparently native;
They looked in vein,
On impoverished plain,
And still never did find a place to live.

Jim Horn

Can you imagine them having a Merry
Christmas and Happy New Year.
