Senate Resolution to Dismiss Articles of Impeachment Predicted at Leon Koziol.Com
On January 10, 2020 By leonkozioljdIn Justice Department Report, Satan's Docket, Uncategorized, United States Supreme Court News
We delivered our report requesting a federal investigation of Title IV-D funding abuses in family courts to the Senate Judiciary Committee pictured here. I personally delivered and discussed that report with current Judiciary Chairman Lindsey Graham. Unfortunately the politics of the 2016 election have prevented our elected leaders from addressing crucial domestic issues of our day.
Last month, I outlined an "epic" maneuver available to President Donald Trump and the Senate to adopt a resolution dismissing Articles of Impeachment being withheld by House Leader Nancy Pelosi.
At the time, White House lawyers were focused on the delay issue when they should have been focused on her conditions for the conduct of any Senate trial. Such conditions were clearly beyond her powers under the Constitution once the impeachment process in the House was concluded.
On Monday of this week (January 6, 2020), the Washington Times reported that Senate Leader Mitch McConnell was co-sponsoring a resolution to do as I predicted. It will dismiss the Articles for Lack of Prosecution.
Although, as pointed out, timeliness was not as important as the usurpation of power, the resolution should be approved even if Pelosi relents and submits the Articles belatedly. Again this is because she has already sabotaged a legitimate impeachment process.
In a later article in the Washington Post (Opinion), it was urged that the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court or the court as a whole might weigh in on the proposed resolution. But the Constitution makes clear that its only role in the impeachment process is to "preside." It has no authority to act as an appeals court as well.
That would raise more problematic issues of appellate bias given the participation of its chief justice at the trial level. Nowhere in the Constitution does it authorize the Chief Justice or the Supreme Court to interfere with the Senate's exclusive authority to vote on any removal of the president.
The decision in Marbury v Madison, 5 US 137 (1803) regarding Supreme Court interpretation of the Constitution is unavailing because the operative provision here is a direct prohibition on any decisional substitution. Yes folks, this is getting real interesting. Stayed tunes to see if it does not all go as I am predicting again today.
Supreme Court interference also raises the bias issues I presented in a motion for disqualification of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg in August, 2016. It was accepted but never ruled upon, see the on-line docket record at Koziol v United States District Court, 15-1519 (2016). It was based on Ginsburg's news conferences from chambers condemning Donald Trump as a private citizen and candidate prior to his election as president.
I discussed the motion with Trump's attorney at the time, Michael Cohen. Prior to the election, he asked me to keep him informed. After the election he informed me that he had no time for my case. Now in prison, Mike has lots of free time.
I filed the motion to preserve my right to impartiality in a case then being considered by the Supreme Court. It involved pro-Trump website postings that were impaired by a family court gag order removed after I challenged it in New York Supreme Court.
How ironic, as predicted then, that her extra-judicial conduct, condemned even by the liberal media, might come back to haunt her in what may be the most publicized vote during her long tenure on the bench. At the very least, it can be seen how the impeachment weapon exploited by Pelosi has led to all kinds of ominous repercussions to the people being served.
Trump's acts of war in the Middle East were likely intended to distract from this impeachment process much like Nixon and Bill Clinton tried to do. It might now lead America from peace time not seen in a long while to full scale war on a potentially global scale. Yes, it's real scary politics my friends, and regardless of your views or sides, the divisiveness must stop lest we all regret our apathy when it's too late.
Great News For May 3rd Parent March on Washington: Congressional Ballroom Secured For Orientation and Speakers
On April 4, 2019 By leonkozioljdIn Call To Action, D.C. Rally, Parental Rights, Parenting Rights Institute, Uncategorized
Congressional Ballroom reserved for our Lobby Strategy Session on May 1, 2019 and Speakers' Event May 2, 2019, 7-9 pm both evenings for the Parent March on Washington
Congressional Ballroom is located on the ground floor of this hotel, the Holiday Inn Capitol, 550 C Street SW, only a few blocks from the U.S. Capitol building,
ADMINISTRATOR'S NOTE: Join our weekly conference call every Thursday and now Mondays also at 7 pm EST to keep up with events. Call (605) 313-4165 and enter access code 763491 when prompted. There's so much happening and we need help to make this a success!
______________________________________________________________________________________________
As followers of this site know, our Parent March on Washington is now a 3-day event. To facilitate growing numbers and nationwide interest, it was necessary to secure a venue for orientation and speakers on the two evenings prior to our May 3rd March (the Main Event).
However there were few available locations of sufficient size and stature to accommodate us. One person assigned to the task reported back contract offers of $15,000 to $30,000 for a three hour event. You could imagine the demand for such spaces in the middle of congressional and Supreme Court sessions.
Fortunately, today, at a reasonable cost, I was able to secure the Congressional Ballroom at the Holiday Inn Capitol (Hotel and Conference Center) located at 550 C Street SW, only a few blocks from the Capitol buildings where our May 2nd lobbying initiative will occur.
Lodging is still available there at rates higher than others, but the Hotel Harrington, suggested in February has long been sold out. Our original plan, like in the past, was to set up headquarters there in a small conference room which is also reserved.
However, we are well beyond what that hotel can offer (it does have a breakfast buffet room and a restaurant lounge). But the short time frame left us stressed and pressed for options. Now we have a sufficient size ballroom to act as a headquarters for our event.
There is a large restaurant lounge (21st Amendment Lounge) breakfast-lunch Bistro and even a Starbucks all in the same building. The Harrington Hotel room and others that may be available can serve as a back-up for remote viewing of the main location events.
It's all still a work-in-progress but we have confirmed a "Meet and Greet" at the 21st Amendment Lounge on May 1, 2019 followed by an orientation and lobby strategy session down the hallway at the Congressional Ballroom between 7 pm and 9 pm.
The following evening, at the same hours and location, we will feature guest speakers, a progress report on the lobby day and a rallying point for the next day Parent March on Washington. We are still looking at guest speakers for Thursday night. If you would like to speak, please e-mail me at leonkoziol@gmail.com.
There is no ticket or cost to attend either night's events, but Thursday speakers might fill this ballroom to capacity. Therefore, we are asking for e-mail confirmations of attendance to the same address.
All three days will be highly educational, they could benefit your personal cases in countless ways. You will learn things that no lawyer can provide at an overall budget cost. Networking alone can change your life for the better. Here we are all allies, here we are all family, here we have never before made such a powerful stand against family court corruption.
To reiterate our three day events, on May 1, 2019, at 10 am., the American Parent Caravan will leave Liberty State Park in Jersey City and proceed to Veterans Memorial in Washington D.C. A four or five hour motorcade of bikers, vehicles and truckers will dominate right lane of traffic.
This motorcade will feature banners and our message of shifting national focus from parent-child separations at our borders to parent-child separations here in our own divorce and family courts. We hope to attract motorists and media along Interstate 95 to our cause. The "Meet and Greet" begins at 5 pm followed by our strategy session at 7 pm when we will make assignments and disseminate our lobby packets.
On May 2, 2019, we will spend an entire day lobbying Congress with meetings and deliveries. We are asking all to contact their representatives for individual meetings on that day. You have to do this now because we're only four weeks away and they need advance notice.
But even if you are too uneasy with that, you can still partner with others assigned to deliver our packets to congressional offices. We have over 500 to cover, so we need all the walkers we can get. Then we rejoin at 7 pm for Speakers Night at the nearby Holiday Inn Ballroom.
The Parent March on Washington, our main event begins at 1 pm at President's (Lafayette) Park in front of the White House. It will conclude at the Supreme Court. I have timely submitted the permit applications and confirmed receipt with several jurisdictions that cover our March route.
It turns out there are four of them, and despite the complexities, my direct dialogue has resulted in green lights. It's not my first rodeo here, or maybe they just like the idea of moms and dads making this stand, grasping our message well. We have reserved "Area 10" across from the Supreme Court (rear of the Capitol Building) for our outdoor rally and media event.
The vigil for suicide and alienation victims has not obtained an organizer so we have cancelled that evening event for now. We end the three day affair with an informal celebration at the nearby Capital Grill (along our parade route) Friday evening.
PLEASE! Spread the word. We need you to join us and help grow the numbers if we are ever going to be heard. We have a Facebook Page now for this purpose entitled Parent March on Washington. You can also call the event sponsor, Parenting Rights Institute, at (315) 380-3420.
Join us for a Casual Exchange of Ideas to Improve Government on October 15
On October 11, 2017 October 11, 2017 By leonkozioljdIn Book Publishing, Call To Action, Civil Rights, Uncategorized
Sean Hannity, Dr. Leon Koziol and Dr. Ari Braverman
Author and Civil Rights Advocate
On Sunday, October 15, 2017 between 5 and 8 pm, I will be sponsoring a Community Chat regarding term limits, strategies for making all three branches of government more accountable, and Book Signings for Satan's Docket . It will occur at my home located at 1336 Graffenburg Road; New Hartford, New York (second left turn off Sherman Drive across from MVCC campus).
Traditionally this website has focused on parental rights and court corruption. As a civil rights advocate and parental consultant, my work has taken me everywhere from Hawaii to Paris. It has resulted in valuable information which can benefit moms, dads and families. You can get it at no charge by simply scrolling down this blog site. You will also find our professional services and programs by clicking onto the pages at the top.
This site, Leon Koziol.com, will now be expanding to cover general topics in the news locally and across the country. You are welcome to contribute your opinions or news tips, confidentially if necessary, at any time. We are presently a small secondary news outlet committed to exposing the issues which mainstream media are suppressing or avoiding. Think of us as a government watchdog enterprise.
Our professional services and programs focused on parental rights and court reform will now be transferred to our new site, Parenting Rights Institute. America's "Judicial Watch" of the divorce industry, it can now be accessed at http://www.parentingrightsinstitute.com. That entity, founded by me in 2010, was recently purchased by an investor in Manhattan to expand the good work we do for those left behind by our nation's domestic courts.
Although the manuscript for my new book, Satan's Docket, was completed only last month, I have decided on an early release due to the Family Judge race in Oneida County (central) New York. I did this because election discourse remains devoid of the real issues confronting the litigants needlessly hauled into these courts for profit. Book store purchases will not be available until well after election day.
A half page advertisement explains this at page 3B of the October 5, 2017 edition of the (Utica) Observer Dispatch and its current on-line version. Another advertisement will appear on Thursday October 12th and a further publication will come in the Sunday edition (October 15). With a copy of any ad or mention of the on-line versions, you will get a $10 discount off the $30 price during any book signing. If you cannot make it, you can purchase a copy on the Satan's Docket Page of the Parenting Rights Institute website, www.parentingrightsinstitute.com.
Come and share your ideas about improving the delivery of government services or your ordeals as a citizen, litigant or parent. You will learn a lot from this book and it could save you many thousands of dollars in lawyer fees and suffering . It explains how these courts truly work, how they are structured to bankrupt entire families and businesses, and how they can work against the so-called "best interests" of our children.
Today more than ever, it is crucial for all Americans to take action against an epidemic which features escalating violence, immorality and crime everywhere. For additional info and directions, call me personally at (315) 796-4000.
Kindly share this post with friends, family and co-workers.

Document Your Injustice on one of America's Most Consulted Blog Sites Against Court Corruption !
On January 16, 2017 January 28, 2017 By leonkozioljdIn Call To Action, Uncategorized
Is your public servant in our Third Branch of Government observing his or her ethical duties under Judicial Codes to be "Dignified, Courteous and Patient" with your rights?
So you have a shocking case that reeks of injustice. What are you going to do about it? Just let it vanish without even a mention in any public record? Such apathy will only encourage more of the same, more victims and more brazen abuses of public office. Obviously our ethics commissions are not doing their jobs as part of a self-regulating branch of government. Therefore you have to rely on a private watchdog group.
Welcome to the Parenting Rights Institute and our highly monitored blog site Leon Koziol.com. Proven, experienced and highly qualified, we act where the commissions are failing us; reviewing, investigating and reporting on individual cases across the country. We do this through books, documentaries, reports and monitoring of individual cases in the very courtrooms where it is needed.
Due to positive feedback, we are now extending our period for publishing individual ordeals on this website, to attract vital interest, assistance, information and public accountability for you and similarly victimized parents. We've been around a long time, securing justice for those abused in our nation's divorce and family courts. Our website proves this throughout.
We feature a worldwide following, thousands of victims, advocates and informants who could provide input and collaboration to your case or cause. So it's for your own benefit, and that of your children and families, that you read on and share this vital message.
Never before in American history have there been so many corrupt judges and unscrupulous lawyers without accountability. The reason is simple. Our universities are turning out a million lawyer candidates a year, at one time more than all the practicing attorneys nationwide. There are more than 300,000 in California and New York alone.
That's a lot of lawyers and they have to work somewhere. The easiest place to land a job is family court. This is where apprentices learn their trade, where law firms send their worst attorneys, and incompetents make a living off your hard earnings. They still use such propaganda as our "children's best interests" while they masquerade as parental experts.
The ones who can't make it in this glut-fest often end up on the bench. Once there, another gang of predators is unleashed from their cages: evaluators, psychiatrists, counselors, therapists, investigators, case workers, and even the latest concoction known as "divorce coaches," all with differing opinions on how to raise your own children.
It's more than a jungle, it's now an epidemic. A Supreme Court Justice once described these constitution-free tribunals as "Kangaroo Courts", see In re Gault, 387 US 1 at pp 27-28. No one wants to protest or invest in a reform movement, so the corruption goes on and you are its victims, a gold mine well guarded by bar associations and special interests.
Well, finally there is a real solution, a remedy to these useless ethics or oversight commissions which favor their players while targeting the whistle blowers, i.e., yours truly. It's pay-back time for your children, your pain and your livelihood, a chance for you to hold a judge or lawyer publicly accountable here at Leon Koziol.com.
Over the past ten years, we have exposed vast corruption, traveled from Hawaii to Paris in a conscientious effort to end human rights violations which routinely occur here. Our site is filled with examples despite a gross lack of funding. I have had over 35 trial judges disqualified and helped remove a few altogether from the bench, always working on more. No one can boast such an achievement.
Now it's your turn. We have perfected a process of reviewing case files submitted from around the country. We distill the legalese into publications on our website. To date, we have generated over 200,000 views and countless followers worldwide. This allows us to gain immediate results on any Google search of our tagged villains. Their names propagate to the top pages to bring public accountability and even improved treatment in court..
For a limited time only, we are offering to do this for individuals at a low, low (total) cost of $250. That's a phenomenal bargain when considering a single lawyer consultation may cost you more. Your case will receive my personal attention, and I have spent over 30 years litigating in these courts. I can keep this cost so low because I am providing no legal advice or lawyer service. I am providing true justice outside the court rooms.
So order your case publication now while this offer lasts. Call our office at (315) 380-3420 or me personally at (315) 796-4000. Remember, I am a victim too and your most trusted advocate or friend. Despite my professional reputation taking on powerful people, I don't bite, unless of course you are an abusive judge or self-serving lawyer. In my case, they included a demented judge whose gag order was removed from this website and a pedophile custody judge removed altogether from the bench!
Please share this post with fellow victims or family members, and make their day.
God bless America's parents !
Are you paying endless fees to a Kangaroo Court? We may get you justice!
On December 14, 2016 By leonkozioljdIn Uncategorized
The late Supreme Court Justice Abe Fortas described them as "Kangaroo courts." He was referring to family courts. Look it up at In re Gault, 387 US 1 at pp. 27-28. Was he describing your court. It's time to get your own "justice!"
Judicial misconduct is the most censored, least publicized and gravest aspect of our federal, state and local governments. You can simply ignore it and move on to your next on-line entertainment, but chances are it will find you especially in our nation's domestic relations courts. So read further and share this post. It may be the most important one you will read in a long time.
The judiciary is our least accountable branch of government. Anyone who dares to reform it can expect severe retributions with no recourse. Judges enjoy absolute immunity for their reckless and even malicious acts. Judicial conduct commissions from New York to California are window dressing entities influenced by politics, typically investigating less than 10% of complaints.
So what does that mean to you? How do you know if your case is not already fixed, rigged or bought-off? You're spending thousands, even millions of dollars in lawyer fees while your judge has already decided against you due to a bribe or political influence. Are you shocked by that, naive about the people in robes? Well here at Leon Koziol.com and Parenting Rights Institute, we have generated shocking examples of judicial and lawyer misconduct from our work all across America.
We are an up and coming "Judicial Watch" for divorce and family courts, doing the work where our oversight commissions are failing us. Currently we are soliciting investors and donors to upgrade our effectiveness. We will come into your community, home or court to monitor your case and seek accountability for any misconduct. As Director of Parenting Rights Institute with nearly 30 years of trial experience in both federal and state courts, I am dedicated to exposing corruption. It may be the only way you can secure true justice and turn things around.
We offer a Court Strategy Program to keep you from being abused and a team of experts to expose corruption in your case if it exists. It is well worth your while, for the sake of your children if nothing else. Look us up at www.parentingrightsinstitute.com, call our office at (315) 380-3420 or contact me personally at (315) 796-4000 for justice. Then take a look at this shocking excerpt of misconduct from a book I wrote to be published for divorce victim Tamara Sweeney entitled Jurassic Justice:
Examples of court corruption are provided throughout my work for victims nationwide. Many are quietly suppressed and "read like a docket sheet in any criminal court." That is what I declared publicly time and again. Yet the public continues to hold judges beyond reproach. The fallacy of that belief was well demonstrated by my custody judge who was also declared by lawyers as "beyond reproach," at least until he was removed from the bench after admitting to sexual misconduct on his handicapped five year old niece: In re Bryan Hedges, 20 NY3d 677 (2013).
One of the shocking cases cited to make my point, and the need for meaningful accountability, involves a New York Supreme Court Judge in Brooklyn caught on camera taking a bribe from a divorce lawyer. It was part of a scam to shift custody from a mother to an influential father. Had the feisty mother not convinced the FBI to act upon her evidence, this judge, Gerald Garson, would still be dispensing "justice." It begs the question: how many other such judges and cases are there? What can explain Tamara's bizarre case? We let you decide as our story continues.
The conviction of Judge Garson for federal crimes was actually not the most shocking part of his case. Due punishment was compromised by judges and lawyer colleagues supporting his early release in 2009. Now you have to ponder that for a moment. If Garson's colleagues are still backing him after a crime which goes to the heart of our justice system, what does that say for their tolerance of corruption generally? Isn't this where precedent is set and examples are made?
While the "Honorable" "Justice" Gerald Garson was busy generating unreported income through an abuse of judicial office, another New York Supreme Court Judge, Thomas Spargo, was busy securing a bribe against a father arguing a client case before him. At a dinner conversation, he requested $10,000 to help defray the cost of legal fees needed to defend against judicial misconduct charges pending against him at the time.
Like Judge Garson, you have to ponder that as well. Judge Spargo was already being prosecuted for judicial misconduct and resorted to more serious behavior to get out of it. He referenced this lawyer's own divorce which might be transferred to him. The pressure was not uncomplicated. Play ball or else. I suppose the lawyer could have won his divorce for a nominal "fee" to this judge when compared to a contested case. He was placed in a real quandary, deciding ultimately to report the crime only after taking steps to avoid false claims that could cost his law license.
Chief Justice Sol Wachtler of New York's high court was imprisoned for numerous crimes during the nineties. In his book, After the Madness, he explained that judges are made to believe that they are gods. Such deep rooted convictions do not disappear. Judge Wachtler went so far as to direct paid court staff to dig up grounds for preventing licensure of a New Jersey lawyer assisting the judge's mistress to discover a man making extortionist and kidnapping threats involving her daughter. That elusive man turned out to be the judge himself.
Then there's that family court judge in the state of Michigan, the "Honorable" Wade McCree, whose case defied all manner of ethics. He admitted to adulterous sex in chambers with a litigant mother while presiding over her child support case. Judge McCree was removed from the bench for all sorts of misconduct involving numerous cases only after the affair (and pregnancy) was confirmed. The father, placed on a tether for support arrears during this affair was denied recovery for the horrific misconduct by a federal appeals court on grounds of judge immunity.
These and other cases are easily found on the internet to verify a judicial corruption epidemic of undefined proportion. Most people view judges as honorable office holders committed to justice, equality and all that other good stuff we read about in high school civics classes. But behind the black robes, in the recesses of chambers and among discreet exchanges in restaurants, bars and golf courses, there is often quite another set of characteristics at play.
Bias, coercion, schemes, scams, deal-making and outright crimes are taking place which violate all manner of ethics formally placed in our judicial codes. In our nation's domestic relations courts, such corruption is taken to the next level under a pretext of family confidentiality, thereby concealing the misconduct and protecting a trillion dollar industry built on needless conflict.
Documentary Preview on Parent Alienation in Divorce and Family Court
On September 30, 2016 By leonkozioljdIn Book Publishing, Documentary, Uncategorized
A book and documentary are coming to fruition regarding the parental alienation epidemic in our state domestic relations courts. Sponsored by the Parenting Rights Institute, they seek to expose the underbelly of a child control industry which is being suppressed by government and media. The mission focuses on a well concealed federal law that rewards state courts by the number and extent of lucrative conflict generated at the expense of parents and children. Indeed parental rights are being eroded systematically by the day.
The brainchild of Dr. Leon Koziol, renowned civil rights advocate, this mission also seeks to grow the number of documented ordeals across the country in order to secure long overdue reforms. Leon has successfully litigated on behalf of those victimized by abusive government practices for more than 23 years until he became a target of retribution himself. If you have an ordeal you would like to add to this mission, contact the Institute office for a cost estimate based on your location and case complexity at (315) 380-3420.

DAY 142: JUSTICE FOR ALL
On December 2, 2011 December 2, 2011 By leonkozioljdIn Founding Fathers MarchLeave a comment
In the sequel of events leading up to the Founding Fathers March on Washington, we are dedicating today to "Justice". It comes to you again from the Saratoga National Historic Park in upstate New York as part of this week's "Liberty and Justice Series". Yesterday we featured the liberty component, and today we bring substance to the other component. We have selected the Saratoga Monument, several miles up the Hudson River from the battlefield site as an ideal venue for this purpose. This monument marks the location of British surrender in 1777 and the turning point in a war which sought to overcome the injustices of an imperialist monarchy.
The patriots who fought this battle did so for liberty, property and freedom. In one word, they did it for justice. It was in our courts that the founding fathers ultimately vested this crucial responsibility. Courts were created to substitute for violence in the streets and the sort of pistol duels which took out America's first Treasury Secretary, Alexander Hamilton. It was Hamilton, in his Federalist Papers, No. 84, who argued against a Bill of Rights because it could one day be exploited to mean that natural rights (such as parenting) were not protected. His point was logical because the Constitution did not remove natural rights from the people (See Page 7 of Parenting Rights Institute Prospectus). His concerns were ultimately satisfied by the last two Amendments in our Bill of Rights approved by the First Congress in 1789, the same year when the last attending delegates of the 1787 Convention ratified the Constitution in North Carolina.
Today, the fears asserted by Hamilton can be found in Supreme Court Justice Scalia's dissenting opinion in Troxel v Granville, see Day 147 (grandparent rights). He found no parenting liberty in the Constitution because it was not expressly stated. It is part of that slippery slope identified by Hamilton which is leading to the ultimate surrender of our children to the state. We rely on the courts to check this slide, however, when they fail to do their job, functioning more as they do a profit center for childrearing, they lose their character and purpose. The People are then entitled to revert to natural law, self preservation and the protection of their own offspring by taking matters into their own hands.
Working illegally ("under the table") is one example of this for support debtors. However more ominous trends are reflected in horrific events all across the country, a collective epidemic which is being suppressed by mainstream media. Very simply, abused parents are resorting to violence. In my home town alone, a police investigator took his life and that of his ex spouse moments after exiting "child support" court, leaving four minor children without their mom and dad. A mother took a knife to the throat of her divorcing husband and was sent to prison for 13 years with no child contact. A father shot his boy in front of state police in a domestic stand-off, and a decorated war veteran was killed on duty as a sheriff deputy only months ago in a similar needless stand-off.
At the same time, a purple heart soldier sought my assistance to defend against support incarceration after attempting to take his own life. In eastern New York and New England, a mother drove her children into the Hudson River and a father (Thomas Ball) burned himself alive in protest of these same laws. Clearly, these "welfare" entitlements have reached their breaking point simply because our judges continue to turn a blind eye to rampant discrimination, oppressive treatment and needless removals of children from their natural parents.
In typical fashion, a dysfunctional government is throwing more money (and gas) at these fires, treating them in the same category as "domestic violence". This will only escalate their occurrence because a more constructive and intelligent response is being lost to money interests. Child control and domestic violence have become multi-billion dollar industries. We need to reform this antiquated caste system which I call the "custodial institution of childrearing" by simply reverting to the wisdom of our founding fathers. If you allow the people to exercise their natural rights of parenting, you will prevent violence. On the other hand, if you treat fathers and non-custodial mothers as incompetent criminals, they will act accordingly, see Day 143.

Rep. Mike Thompson unveils expanded gun bill requiring universal background checks
KEVIN FIXLER
With the stroke of a pen and a stroll onto the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives Tuesday, Sonoma County Congressman Mike Thompson introduced the highest-profile legislation of his political career, believing the newly sworn-in Democratic majority finally will be able to deliver on the promise of requiring universal background checks on all private gun sales.
The St. Helena Democrat and House veteran of 20 years was accompanied in Washington, D.C., for the ceremonial submission of House Bill 8 by former U.S. Rep. Gabby Giffords, D-Arizona, who nearly lost her life in a mass shooting attack in Tucson in 2011.
Tuesday marked eight years since a gunman shot and killed six people and wounded 13 others, including Giffords with a bullet in the head from close range, outside a Safeway supermarket during a public meet-and-greet event.
Since recovering, she and her husband, retired astronaut Mark Kelly, have dedicated much of their lives to advocacy work to prevent gun-related deaths.
"Stopping gun violence takes courage — the courage to do what is right, the courage of new ideas," Giffords said during an afternoon press conference announcing the introduction of Thompson's expanded legislation to help ensure people only get access to firearms after their backgrounds are vetted. "I've seen great courage when my life was on the line. Now is the time to come together, be responsible — Democrats, Republicans, everyone. We must never stop fighting."
Not one year after the tragedy in Tucson, a 20-year-old gunman stormed Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, killing 20 young children and six adults. Thompson, a Vietnam War veteran and recipient of the Purple Heart after being wounded while serving, has been working to gain traction on enhanced gun legislation ever since that 2012 tragedy.
The latest call for background checks on all gun sales, including for the first time at gun shows, over the internet and in classified ads, is Thompson's fourth try at getting a gun safety bill to reach the House floor for a vote. The new Democratic majority and Nancy Pelosi, D-San Francisco, again in the key decision-making position as House speaker should allow that to happen.
"For the last six years, there was Republican control of the House, and they would not even have a hearing on the issue of gun violence prevention, let alone on the bill," Thompson said in an interview Tuesday. "This is a new day. Every day that goes by potentially loses more lives and the whole idea is to save lives."
His previous attempts at a law weren't as ambitious, he said, because the congressional appetite hadn't yet fully formed. Thompson, chairman of the House Gun Violence Prevention Task Force and lifelong hunter, said he needed to remain practical. Through "a natural progression," however, he now thinks he's garnered the necessary support across the aisle to pass the bill onto the Senate, namely as the pendulum has swung further forward with each subsequent mass shooting — Aurora, Orlando, Las Vegas and Parkland, to name a few.
"The fact of the matter is the population across the country is fired up on this," Thompson said. "Young student leaders from one end to the other, they're engaged and demanding that some action happen. The American people are way out in front of this and I believe the public sentiment wins out."
The No. 8 assigned to the legislation was a symbolic decision by Pelosi to pay respect to the eight-year mark of the shooting in Tucson on Jan. 8. But the single-digit number for the bill also is used to signal its importance and level of priority for the new speaker, who spoke of the issue's "growing crescendo" from the packed stage during Tuesday's press conference announcing the bill.
"In communities across America, courageous survivors, families and young advocates are showing outstanding courage and persistence demanding an end to the horrific scourge of violence in our nation," Pelosi said in a prepared statement. "Our Democratic majority will press relentlessly for bipartisan progress to end the epidemic of gun violence on our streets, in our schools and in our places of worship. Enough is enough."
The Bipartisan Background Checks Act of 2019 is actually co-sponsored by 10 members of Congress, including five Republicans. Rep. Peter King, R-New York, is for the fourth time joining Thompson in his pursuit of what's been labeled "commonsense" and "bold" gun legislation.
A request seeking comment on the legislation from the National Rifle Association, which traditionally opposes the expansion of laws that restrict access to guns, went unreturned Tuesday. If passed by both congressional chambers as written and signed into law by President Trump, Thompson's bill still would allow firearm transfer exceptions between families, friends and hunting partners. It does not address a Trump administration rollback of an Obama-era gun law that would have required the Social Security Administration to provide information on those with mental disorders during background checks.
Thompson bristles at the idea of maintaining inaction as the continued response to tackling the complex issue because there exists no panacea for ending mass shootings and gun deaths in their entirety in America.
"There's no single piece of legislation that's going to solve all the problems and address the overall issue of gun violence," he said. "The experts say the single most important thing that yields the greatest return is expanding background checks. It's our first line of defense in keeping people who shouldn't have guns from having guns."
No set timetable for when the bill might advance through a House Judiciary Committee hearing and then, if approved, onto the House floor, but Thompson said he's confident it will pass with near-total support among the 235-member Democratic majority and at least the five Republicans who signed on as co-sponsors. He said he expects that will happen in the first 100 days of the 2019 Congress, and then it would be up to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Kentucky, whether to put the bill up for a vote in the Senate.
"The Senate is a hurdle," Thompson acknowledged. "I also think sending this bill over with a good bipartisan vote puts pressure on McConnell to allow the issue to come up in the Senate. It's important we have success with this, pass the bill out of the House, which sends a loud message that yes we can do these things, and my colleagues in the House and Senate need to stand up for what's right and take these issues on."

Shocks or struts
"Stock shock absorbers initially created absolutely unacceptable ride. Every bump was sharp with no give from the shocks! Horrible. I would get a headache from the constant jarring. After about 4000 miles, they broke in and the ride is now acceptable for a 3.4 ton truck. I've been driving this type of pick up for 50 years and never had one or driven one, that rode that bad. I should have changed the shocks the day I purchased the truck. Ford needs to find a different shock supplier!! These were not the HD shocks."

"Truck came new from the factory with bad alignment. Caster was set at negative when it should've been at positive 3 or 4. This caused the steering damper to wear out prematurely at 6000 mi on ODO. The truck started death wobbling, which is an extreme steering oscillation that would make the truck undriveable and dangerous to the driver and others on the road. Ford was reluctant to fix. Could've been the dealership I was dealing with. I bought dual steering stabilizer kit aftermarket and installed myself. This helped make the truck driveable but still uncomfortable. Also had rear wheel bearings replaced, fuel pump replaced, u-joint in driveshaft replaced, doors squeak extremely loud even after greasing. If I bought another 3/4 ton truck would definitely be dodge or CHEVROLET. Engine, transmission, 4x4, AC have been good."

"I am having a variety of electronic issues. With the radio, it changes by itself when the vehicle is turned off. So if I am listening to XM radio and leave, when I turn the truck on, it almost always goes to AM radio. The radio also becomes unresponsive and has to be rebooted. When I ask the vehicle with Apple car play to call my wife, half the time it asks which number (cell/home) and the other half it just dials the cell. If I drive for more than 45 minutes, tow/haul mode always turns on. For a while the auto lights stopped working, and I had to manually turn the lights on and off.

"This rattle was on the driver side door and involved the hinge. The rattle was very loud and occasionally the door would snap when opened. It took months for us to be able to replicate the sound for the dealership and ended up being the hinge was defective. When getting the vehicle repaired, the door was taken off the hinge and subsequently swung open too far and dented the vehicle, requiring another trip to the dealership for repairs. Very frustrating that even videotaping the noise/rattle was not sufficient to initiate repairs. It took over 5 attempts at booking an appointment for service before we could replicate the noise for a tech to hear."
"Rattles have began to develop as the vehicle ages."
"The driver's side door had a most annoyingly loud rattle that took several trips to the dealership. The rattle was hard to recreate but it was finally diagnosed as a faulty door hinge. This rattle took 5 trips to the dealership, each involving dropping the truck off for several hours only to be told that the mechanic wasn't able to reproduce the problem. We were finally able to video tape the noise and then also it rattled during the last visit with the mechanic. During the repair, the mechanic managed to damage the outer front panel of the truck with the truck door. That repair also required a separate appointment. All in all about 8-10 hours of lost work. Very frustrating."

"There is a module failure affecting cruise control that occurs after certain turns with a trailer plugged in. Ford and dealer unable to replicate, therefore unable to repair. Resets with complete off/on of vehicle, requiring driver door open and close. I also had problems with the driver seat control not matching between the screen controller and the physical button on the side of the seat. A software update "seems" to have made this problem go away. Real problem with the dealership requiring this vehicle to be serviced on the commercial side, along with panel trucks and semi's. That department has no idea what all of the electronic components are about. Stupid mis-alignment of technicians problem there. Also, the vehicle has difficulty starting sometimes. Dealership cannot replicate so no fix. Occasionally just really struggles to get enough fuel or oxygen to run at high enough idle. Then it "catches" and runs fine from there on."

I used to work at BSW and I still keep in touch with the guys there. On a trip back to visit my friends there in the US I saw some artwork for the concepts and stuff… Obviously I can't discuss specifics, but it looked very VERY nice. I think they are managing to make it look far and away different from the style they use in TES games, so I think that will help.
As far as writing is concerned, I ain't too worried about that either. The fact that the main writer for the TES games no longer works there means you probably won't have his "touch" influencing it. Which is not to say that I think Ken would do a bad job.

Dressage Formula Third Edition - Cassette Audio by Eric Herbermann
Used in good condition - $22.95 USD
Dressage Formula Third Edition 6 Audio CDs by Erik Herbermann
This respected title hardly needs introducing. Erik Herbermann'sDressage Formula was first published in 1980 and has been in constant demand ever since. It has now been completely revised and extended for the fourth time and is presented in the same clear format that has helped to make it one of the most consistently popular and widely quoted books on the subject of dressage in print today. Based on the principles of the classical school, the author covers both the aesthetic and practical aspects of riding and training. A deep love for and knowledge of horses illuminates Herbermann's text.
This audio presentation is narrated by the author himself. The chapter introductions, Reflections, and poems are accompanied by brief excerpts of classical music, making this release not only a font for practical information, but also an elegant, enjoyable listening experience.
Erik Herbermann was born in Amsterdam in 1945. At an early age, he moved with his family to Johannesburg and ten years later to Canada. His initial equestrian training was with Patricia Salt FBHS, herself a pupil of Richard Wätjen and Oberbereiter Lindenbauer at the Spanish Riding School. Subsequently, he studied under the celebrated classical riding teacher, Egon von Neindorff.
Now residing in the USA, Erik Herbermann devotes much of his time to lecturing, teaching, and conducting clinics internationally. As well as producing three editions of his perennial bestseller Dressage Formula, and narrating an audio version of its third edition, he has also written numerous articles for equestrian publications in the US, Holland, and Canada. Now, after more than twenty years since Dressage Formula first appeared, he has produced the long-awaited "A Horseman's Notes."
Erik Herbermann is a staunch advocate of classical ideals, and his ideology is based on an objective study of the horse's nature, which seeks the depth of understanding and quality of work perceived in the greatest of Renaissance Masters. In common with these luminaries, he views equitation as a self-improving art, rooted in the utmost of affection and respect for the horse.

What are the danger s of a vendor / seller take back mortgage ( VTB mortgage )?
Fraud and crime in real estate has dramatically increased. At one time there was just the "Oklahoma" offer now there are many variations of this fraud and others t hat can effect the security of your real estate investment. Sale prices of properties have been inflated, documents have been altered and properties have been destroyed.
Starting with appraisals, this document is the cornerstone of your independent review of the property's market value to ensure your investment in the market whether it is the ownership of the real estate or to ensure the investment in the property's mortgage is secure and has equity.
First you should ensure that you have hired a professional to complete the appraisal assignment. Appraisers are not not licensed in Ontario, anyone can hang out a shingle and call themselves an appraiser. Investigate the background and expertise of the appraiser you hire. Appraisers from INHOUSE Appraisal are members of the Appraisal Institute of Canada.
Now you have an appraisal. What are some of the dangers? Appraisals are usually written for the person who ordered the report for their specific use. Not all appraisal reports are the same! You should read the purpose, scope, assumptions and limitations of the report to see what was investigated and researched.
If you receive a report that someone has forwarded to you, be careful! The report my not have been written for your use. Your purpose and reliance on the appraisal could effect the security you thought you were getting.
As a user of our appraisal reports, we support only originally signed reports or electronic reports sent directly from INHOUSE APPRAISAL. Reports forwarded from another user should not be relied upon. Any digital document generated from a computer is compiled in 1's and 0's. Even though this document has been secured by passwords and has encryption codes, some creative fraudsters could modify the appearance of appraisal reports and change information.
For example: An appraisal report could be ordered by an individual as they were thinking of of obtaining financing. A report was prepared and picked up by the client. Dissatisfied that the property value was not as high as they wished in order to obtain the financing desired, they scan into a computer and modify the value from (say) $440,000 to $560,000 and send it off to a lender. The potential lender would be lending an amount that is higher that the value of the property and could lose his investment.
