Coke in the White House, A Dead Body at Obama's House, So Let's Indict Trump

Unsolved mysteries and non-theoretical conspiracies

There are a lot of things we don’t know. Sketchy stories with lots of holes in them are where conspiracy theories (also known as plausible explanations) breed. Some of the stuff we don’t know:

• Who planted the pipe bombs in front of DNC and RNC headquarters in Washington, DC on January 5, 2021? Our government has the video.

• What was in the manifesto of the transsexual shooter Audrey Hale of Nashville who shot up the Covenant Christian school in Nashville in March 2023? Our government has the document.

• Forget Epstein’s list, I want to know what was on all of the video tape he shot at his various residences. Our law enforcement has the video tapes.

• What was really going on in the deadliest mass shooting in the US, when Stephen Paddock killed 58 people? The case was just shut down.

• What are in the Kennedy assassination documents that neither Trump nor Biden saw fit to release? The documents exist, why can’t we see them—it’s been 60 years, for pity’s sake.

Generally, the authorities think we will forget stories after a while, and they’re right. This means they do not have to share uncomfortable or inconvenient details if they just wait a few days or weeks.

Coke in the White House

On July 7, 2023, the Secret Service detail at the White House found about a gram of cocaine in a small plastic bag in the White House. The story was crazy from the get-go. First, it was reported that a “white powder” was found and the White House had to be evacuated. (In case you don’t remember, Joe Biden was not in residence because he was on one of his many much-needed vacations at the time.) In first reports, it was unclear if the powder was found near the White House or in the White House. Then the white powder was determined to be cocaine. Once it was confirmed that a controlled substance was found in the White House, the location of the discovery changed a few times until they settled on the story that it was found in a cubby compartment near the West Wing of the White House. Since visitors taking a tour of the White House might have access to the cubbies for storing personal items, there were a few ridiculous attempts tried to frame tourists for bringing drugs to the White House. When in doubt, blame citizens.

Dan Bongino offered the most plausible explanation; it was likely a drug dealer’s delivery to a White House resident. Bongino is an expert in the top-level security at the White House, having served on the Presidential detail of the Secret Service as well as doing other types of security. Bongino said that there are multiple checkpoints getting into the White House, not all of which are visible to the entrants. However, the First Family can enter the White House without going through the formal security checks. So it’s possible a family member or a guest (drug dealer) could have brought the coke into the White House by bypassing the normal security. They then may have left it at a drop point for a later pick-up. Conspiracy theory? Yes, but we don’t have any other explanation. The Secret Service closed the investigation on July 13, 2023 with the finding: “no suspects.”

Barney Fife could have done a better job on this case.

We have the most advanced security systems in the world, but a rando can apparently get into the White House and hide illegal drugs in a quasi-public place and leave the world’s premiere security experts baffled. I believe the Secret Service does know what happened, but they’re not telling us. Some people go to jail for having that much cocaine. There are people sitting in prison right now for having an ounce of cocaine in their possession. But in the White House, an ounce of coke is a bigger mystery than the real identity of Jack the Ripper.

Dead Body at the Obama Compound

Tafari Campbell was a sous-chef in the White House under then-President Barack Obama and when the Obamas left Washington for Martha’s Vineyard and the Good Life, Campbell left the White House to work for the Obamas at their mulitmillion-dollar compound. Campbell was 45 years old when he drowned on July 23, 2023 while paddleboarding in Edgartown Great Pond. It is a sad story, but one so full of holes, even non-conspiracy-theory people have to ask questions.

Contradictions arose from the start. Campbell couldn’t swim—well, then Instagram footage turned up showing that not only had he had taken swimming lessons, but he could swim. The proof is the video of his swimming laps. Campbell is no Riley Gaines, but he was a competent swimmer.

The water was reported to be 8 feet deep, but the average depth in Edgartown Pond is 3 feet and earlier reports cited 3 or 4 foot deep water. He was allegedly found near shore but the exact recovery details are not known. At first, we were told he was alone, then he was with someone, or maybe more than one person, but we do not know who. A 911 call was made but blanked out of police reporting. Weeks later, we found out it was a call made by Secret Service to report the drowning. The entire audio of the 911 call has been released and it is unclear why it was not released more promptly. It was made by Secret Service from Obama’s compound to the local police.

We don’t know the Obama whereabouts—at first they were not home, then they were home. The daughters were home, then they weren’t home, then they were home the night Campbell drowned but left before the body was recovered.

An autopsy was performed on Campbell but results were not released other than to say he died of drowning with no signs of trauma on the body. Oh, and it was later revealed that he was not wearing a life vest. Or any clothes at all. He was nude paddleboarding. Maybe that’s a thing.

Somebody—we don’t know who—saw him go under the water, tried to rescue him, but failed. We don’t know who this was or why it was impossible to rescue a drowning man in a shallow pond.

This is a pretty nefarious pond, as this site is eerily close to the place where Mary Jo Kopechne drowned on July 18, 1969. Campbell drowned near Edgartown, Kopechne went off the road at Dike Bridge.

His body was not found until the next morning. This seems like an overly long time, but perhaps there were reasons. If there are reasons why it took so long to find the body of an adult man in a shallow pond, they were never explained.

The Massachusetts Medical Examiner ruled the death an accident. Nobody knows of any plausible motive to kill this man. The Campbell drowning may be just a tragic accident, but the unwillingness to share details and to conceal seemingly normal things make us wonder. And why was he naked? And who was with him?

We’ll never know, the mainstream media has declared this an accident. Case closed. No investigation is necessary. Move along.

Indict Trump

Meanwhile, the only former or current president to see the inside of a courtroom lately is Donald Trump. He’s been arrested four times in 2023 and is facing four sets of criminal charges in New York, Washington, D.C., Florida, and Georgia. Not only is this unprecedented, but the charges are weak and most legal experts say that Trump will win eventually … on appeal. But it is likely he will rack up some convictions along the way. You can’t win on appeal till you get convicted by the lower courts.

All of these trials take place in the year Trump is campaigning for the Presidency. Some charges are bogus on their face—they are past the statute of limitations by several years. Others are weird, like the E. Jean Carroll rape case where she cannot remember the date or even year when the alleged attack took place in the dressing room of a department store.

The Letitia James case in New York is strange in the extreme. It accuses Trump of over-valuing real estate to get favorable loans from Deutsche Bank. Trump asked Deutsche Bank for the loan, used his properties as collateral, got the loan, and paid it off with interest. There was no “victim” in this case, no aggrieved party. It is doubtful Trump filled out his own paperwork. Nobody complained except a certain Attorney General (AG) who was not party to any of this. And it happened years ago, but AG James never bothered to make a case of it until just now.

While Trump is accused of exaggerating the value of his properties, few banks make loans based on a person’s claims. Such property would likely be appraised or in some way assessed by a third party. Real estate is based on property valuations which are in continuous flux; the whole industry is based on over-valuing and under-valuing one’s holdings. Besides that, Deutsche Bank never said complained and Trump honored the terms of the loan, which he paid back in full with interest. So AG Letitia James has stepped in and filed a whole slew of strange charges. The loans were made years ago. Imagine if you took out a loan, paid it, and then, more than a decade later, you were suddenly facing criminal charges because a state attorney general did not like the valuation of the collateral? If you can be charged criminally for taking out a loan that an AG does not like, even many years past the statute of limitations … we are all in peril.

In Georgia, Trump is facing racketeering, forgery, perjury, and other charges along with a slew of people in his organization. You would think Trump was Al Capone. The gist of this suit is that Trump asked Brad Raffensperger, the Secretary of State in Georgia, to “find” enough votes for Trump to win Georgia. Georgia was a battleground state in the 2020 election and the margin of victory was going to be razor-thin, no matter who won. That statement by Trump was construed by district attorney (DA) Fani Willis to mean Trump was organizing a conspiracy to overturn a legitimate election by fraudulent or other illegal means.

Think of all the crazy things Biden says. Trump asks if Raffensperger can “find” votes and it’s taken to mean he was demanding Raffensperger forge fake ballots or commit some other crime. Biden says the border is closed. Not only is that a lie, it really is a crime. A President has a duty to secure the nation’s border. Recently, Biden has ordered border patrol to cut down floating barriers and barbed wire put up by Texans to protect their border with Mexico. That is actually a crime committed to allow the commission of an even bigger crime—the invasion of this nation by illegal immigration.

Right now, some of Trump’s co-defendants are taking deals. Jenna Ellis tearfully pled guilty to I don’t know what and Sidney Powell also copped a plea for a handful of misdemeanors. This is the ugliest side of lawfare and lawfare is worse than war. It’s kind of like war if you imagine one side has all the weapons and no conscience and the other side has no weapons, nowhere to hide, and it costs them $10,000 a day to keep playing the game.

The goal of lawfare is not justice. It is the use of the legal system as a weapon to wage war on political enemies. One way to do this is to rack up lots and lots of bogus charges or weird accusations. If the district attorney can bring these charges and the case can go to court, this creates asymmetrical warfare. It does not matter if the charges are fair or even if they will stick. The goal is to force the enemy of the state to play the game. The prosecution has unlimited resources—all of the money of the state, the police force, forensics labs, everything else in the toolbox. The defendants have nothing but what they can pay for themselves. Sure, they can get a freebie public defender, but they don’t have investigators or experts or a team of legal specialists unless they shell out for them from their own pocket. And public defenders are notoriously overburdened, many are inexperienced, and some are political activists who would sell out their Republican client for a bag of chips. It is better to hire a real lawyer, but they are not cheap. The defendants can try to cobble together a defense, but it comes out of their pocket and there is no reimbursement.

One aim of the lawfare against Trump is to take his money as well as his time.

Trump is a billionaire. Sidney Powell and Jenna Ellis are not. In lawfare, the prosecution scares the poorer defendants with inflated charges, potential huge fines, and even prison time. Meanwhile, six-figure attorney bills are being racked up every month. People like Powell and Ellis are being threatened with long prison terms and bankrupted simultaneously. Since they’re Conservatives, they also have the mainstream media smearing them in the press. It’s the judicial equivalent of waterboarding.

Tortured co-defendants are soon willing to make a deal. It’s often deferred adjudication. That means the accused person is willing to plead guilty in return for no charges being filed. They often must submit to all sorts of terms, like probation, but if they go for years and obey their plantation masters in the court system, then the deferred adjudication is even dropped and they have no blemish on their record. They may have PTSD and million-dollar debts, but the charges eventually all disappear in a puff of smoke.

So why are the courts trying to get Trump’s alleged “co-conspirators” to take a plea? Well, for one thing, it removes pawns from the chess board and weakens Trump. Basic legal theory says that in a court case with many defendants, you pick off the low-ranking defendants first by forcing them to plea guilty, so you have a better shot at the king, which in this case is Trump.

But among the things Miss Fani may demand in return for deferred adjudication is testimony in court. In other words, sometimes our legal system makes a defendant turn rat in order to survive. In this way, lawfare is like the legal version of Sophie’s Choice. For instance, Powell pled guilty to six misdemeanors. She has to pay $6,000 in fines, agree to six years of probation, and write a letter of apology to all of the people of Georgia. But, oh yes, she may be called upon to testify against Trump.

Trump is facing 91 charges across four major cases. Two of these cases involve the 2020 election (and Trump’s telling people he wanted to win it), one involves classified documents, and one is the Letitia James business loan case. Considering the crimes the denizens in DC commit every day, these charges are weak tea. Biden had classified documents in his possession which he stole. (Vice-Presidents and Senators have no power to declassify documents and may not remove them from SCIFs or other secure locations.) The Biden family, including Joe, have over 150 Suspicious Activity Reports or SARs from banks and lending institutions. These are reports that are mandatory for banks to file when they suspect money laundering or other fraud. Getting one or two SARs is a serious thing. The Bidens got them constantly but no one has ever bothered to investigate.

And it doesn’t stop there. Nancy Pelosi has been credibly accused insider trading. Ilhan Omar has been accused of immigration fraud by marrying her brother to get him into the country. Adam Schiff lied in testimony before Congress. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez has over $2,500 in unpaid taxes dating back to 2012. But as Democrats like to say, “No one is above the law,” except of course themselves.

Many of the Trump charges are “conspiracies” but not the fun tinfoil hat kind. In legal terms a conspiracy means that two or more people got together and planned to break the law and then actually did something in furtherance of that objective. It’s what your grandmother called being “in cahoots” with somebody. The weird thing about legal conspiracies is that they can be a crime even when the crime never happens. Technically, if two people talk about robbing a bank, then drive by that bank and maybe even snap a few photos, but go home and decide not to rob the bank… that could still be a conspiracy to rob a bank and they could face criminal charges.

What is going on here is election interference, which, ironically, are among the charges they are bringing against Trump. They are trying to keep Trump busy and distracted as the system burns through Trump’s time and money in this campaign year. They are also aimed at keeping Trump in the news in a negative light, but that seems to be backfiring as Trump seems to be benefiting from the publicity. Even his mugshot became an iconic symbol of patriotic defiance rather than a mark of shame.

In fact, the lawfare that is supposed to be Trump’s kryptonite is more like his spinach. He seems to be energized by all of this.

It is likely that none of the charges brough against Trump are durable. They will probably be denied on appeal, even if it takes multiple appeals all of the way to the Supreme Court. But the lawfare system does not care about that… because its goal is not justice, it’s punishment. As long as they can drag Trump through the mud, make him jump through hoops, and cost him a small fortune, they win.

Lawfare is the modern-day gulag.
