BOOOOM! ST. LOUIS-AREA ATTORNEY INDICTED FOR WIRE FRAUD AND FORGING CIRCUIT JUDGE SIGNATURES Messing with your firm's finances and cheating your clients is a Federal felony. They were warned... https://justice.gov/usao-sdil/pr/former-belleville-attorney-indicted-federal-court

U.S. v Jason R. Caraway - SDIL The practices of casually inserting a judge's signature onto a document is something that may send a lot of attorneys around St. Louis to Federal penitentiary. Shame so many of them do this constantly... 😆 https://t.co/WOhLdac5Fz

<THREAD> CIVIL SUIT BY TORTURE VICTIM ACCUSES TWITTER OF JOINING RACKETEERING ENTERPRISE WITH SAUDI ARABIA, ENABLING HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS Let me break down the civil complaint and affidavits. YOU were threatened too by this site's activities. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/sep/04/twitter-saudi-arabia-human-rights-abuses?CMP=share_btn_tw
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Areej al-Sadhan is the sister of a victim of the Saudis who was targeted through Twitter employees. She too is a victim. She is suing for damages under Civil RICO in the NDCA. https://t.co/NnVei5DHaW
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Table of Contents - because the Complaint and Exhibits are 900 pages. Twitter handed user information to a hostile intelligence service. And there's nothing stopping them from doing that to YOU. https://t.co/Z3JQ8k5JM4
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Basically, the suit alleges that Jack Dorsey was in bed with MBS over the torture of democracy activists. https://t.co/hiV0mjIssc
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Twitter and the Saudis face allegations of engaging in tens of thousands of predicate RICO acts in furtherance of a conspiracy to torture and kill democracy activists who oppose tyranny. Which isn't very nice. https://t.co/ZNC2pzN4zy
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
In terms of civil suits, a conspiracy to arrest, imprison, torture, and kill people can result in some very plausible claims of irreparable harm. Death could be the ultimate irreparable harm, y'know? https://t.co/QHUU1UwYMD
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
The suit alleges that Twitter was all-in with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in a RICO Enterprise that had the goal of repressing criticism of Trump, Putin, Xi, and MBS trying to take over the world and end democracy. Which sounds bad on its face. https://t.co/bDki4BZGki
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
They went there. The suit connects Twitter to the murder of Jamal Khashoggi, a journalist. https://t.co/yQuV4YP9qO
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
THIS IS WHERE IT GETS INTERESTING - WATCH THIS SPACE The suit alleges that Saudi Arabia aimed to recruit Twitter after the tech company was instrumental in the Arab Spring. KEEP AN EYE ON THIS PART. https://t.co/XW3Pf1GIOz
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
The suit alleges that Twitter gave Saudi an *equity stake of ownership in the company* while targeting democracy. Also, note that the first indictment came under DOJ when Bill Barr ran it. Of course, there was way worse going on. Also: Twitter gave out details on 6000 users. https://t.co/N8Zec9VpDC
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
The Saudis used Twitter to *disappear* critics of the regime. https://t.co/GGu9AN473l
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
As too many of us have experienced, if the forces of tyranny couldn't kill you or imprison you, they ruthlessly attacked your career, your sense of safety, your mental health. Their activities form a RICO Enterprise. They're the Fascist Mafia. https://t.co/W3xQCcAsZ7
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Just so you can put the faces of the human beings behind this lawsuit, here are the victims. "They broke his hand, smashed his fingers, saying 'this is the hand you tweet with.'" https://t.co/nvemvIAloH
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Both Twitter and the Saudi butchers are alleged to have a targeted a close family of democracy activists. https://t.co/bI4CAh1wnX
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Try this on for size: "Members of the Saudi Criminal Enterprise: TWITTER" https://t.co/XkLrNAyxig
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
The suit alleges that...the Saudis have owned a ton of Twitter for a decade. Including when Trump used the site to get elected with the help of multiple hostile foreign intelligence services. Which Twitter *assisted*. https://t.co/2VoDkbhpG9
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
The suit alleges that the Saudis have been targeting Twitter and recruiting and operationalizing and...all kinds of spy stuff. To get at regular citizens. https://t.co/cAPil8mHwu
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
The civil suit names the thug who had Khashoggi butchered as a defendant. https://t.co/NmYavraJdF
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
These two are the Saudi spies who were embedded in Twitter and other American tech companies for the purposes of attacking democracy - and coordinating the kidnapping and torture of those who supported the rule of law and civilization. https://t.co/7yO5NsNey5
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
These two were the handlers of the Saudi spies in Twitter on behalf of MBS. They coordinated the transmission of user data to the Saudis for targeting of civilians with hostile intelligence Ops. https://t.co/Yrc1W1Wrra
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Charming. The Saudis set up "scholarships" for their kids to study in the U.S., then relentlessly track them and monitor whether they get any bright ideas about democracy so they can kick the shit out of them. We should PNG most of these organizations, I think. https://t.co/frvm41lxZg
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Behind it all is Jared Kushner's business partner MBS. The guy to whom Trump wanted to give our next-generation energy technology. Pretty bad isn't it? 😠 https://t.co/w1i4Mmwykp
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
MBS used Twitter directly, ordering the targeting of Americans with harassment, violence, and death. All while St. Louis' @Jack Dorsey got paid for it. Think about that. https://t.co/im4tcSr3DU
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
NOTE: The U.S. Federal courts have held that MBS was immune from suit...while...a head of state. Ask Donald Trump and Nicolas Sarkozy. That immunity doesn't last forever... 😈⚖️ https://t.co/vr8mm0KqHB
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
This is one of the nastiest RICO allegations that you'll ever see: kidnapping, torture, stalking, harassment, threats, and murder - all to destroy democracy. And the venue is...where Twitter has its headquarters. https://t.co/FzvkGEGQwv
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
This is huge: WHY did the Saudis infiltrate Twitter to attack Americans? Because the Arab Spring scared the shit out of the world's dictators. Democracy scared the shit out of them, because they are criminal thugs. https://t.co/adHtYW6nHf
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Twitter sold out its users to butchers. Simple as. https://t.co/ocSqz3Rj99
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
The Saudis were having trouble lying to Twitter to get data on how to kidnap their victims...so they just bribed Twitter instead. Jack Dorsey has a lot of explaining to do. https://t.co/z0P1veVYk9
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Basically, the Saudis executed a Mob shakedown on Twitter. When Jack Dorsey knuckled under, he let the Bonesaw Butchers have whatever they wanted - so they could torture and kill the enemies of tyranny. https://t.co/mn7qKXjOLg
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Under both Jack Dorsey AND Elon Musk, Twitter is part owned the Saudis - butchers who describe advocating for democracy as "terrorism." The U.S. Government needs to step in hard. https://t.co/MI14wHVCvy
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Speaking of the U.S. Government, you know who else knew the Saudis were using Twitter to target Americans? The FBI's former General Counsel behind the Netanyahu-run Steele Dossier Op: James Baker. Interesting career move. Shows one's values, I think. https://t.co/giYZr27gKW
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk are tied to THIRTY-ONE THOUSAND PREDICATE RICO ACTS including murder and torture, all with the goal of replacing democracy with totalitarian dictatorship. https://t.co/qVHA6ZH6xV
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Twitter is alleged to have helped the Bonesaw Mafia find its victims so they could be maimed or murdered. https://t.co/ECOWDh1O0J
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Why did the Saudis infiltrate Twitter? Because it is a primary engine of social change. And because people want human rights and democracy. And because fossil fuel dictatorships don't want those things. https://t.co/gp6r8BlXaz
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk have known for a decade or more that the Saudis use Twitter to attack citizens. And they were just fine with that. Still are. https://t.co/EEhR5Ln4IN
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
The FBI warned Twitter that they had a Saudi spy problem. Twitter could care less. (Incidentally, isn't it interesting how Missouri's Eric Schmitt sued to keep the U.S. Government from contacting social media companies? Interesting, right?) https://t.co/oXutKxOIQI
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
The Saudi spies within Twitter escaped back to the KSA through the same Saudi consulate in Los Angeles used to coordinate the attacks of September 11. Read that last sentence real slow. https://t.co/lB6JByYPEZ
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
The Saudi espionage that Jack Dorsey enabled - and that made him wealthy - was staggering in breadth, frequency, and malignancy. What a bunch of villains. https://t.co/WiWKcTLaNC
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Jack Dorsey was especially pliant when it came to the desires of the authors of the September 11 attacks on America. He treated the Saudis better than even other dictators. Quite a legacy. https://t.co/LyHpzNxBDN
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Six months after the FBI warned him about Saudi espionage through his company and five months before Trump's election, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey joined the Saudi conspiracy against democracy - openly. With MBS. Took pictures. And his Saudi pals tweeted it. https://t.co/Aj4LHJ9od5
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
The Saudis paid Jack Dorsey handsomely for allowing them to use his company for espionage against civilization. https://t.co/ChUMeqpbK9
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
For more than a decade Jack Dorsey and Twitter (and now, Elon Musk) have been in the pocket of the Saudis who use their Western investments for espionage and attacks on democracy. https://t.co/a6OWwQOxDQ
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Abdulrahman was targeted for having a big account and being funny. Tortured and imprisoned...for being funny on social media. https://t.co/gpnYfkJvWE
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
The Saudis target democracy activists in other allied nations, such as Canada. They can end up in prison or worse. https://t.co/KuLbxFYDgF
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Twitter's data went to take down not just Albdulrahman, but many more like him...years after Twitter execs collaborated with Saudi intelligence. The damage to democracy is not yet knowable. https://t.co/LlIlb6aTsH
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
The Saudis get years of espionage benefit from their partnership with Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk. That benefit is ongoing. Nobody knows how many will suffer because of their RICO enterprise. https://t.co/tr8KM3Js7D
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
After her brother disappeared, his sister Areej went looking for him. He was detained and tortured and held in secret. https://t.co/AUJroDzZAQ
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
This is the SAME CREW that had Jamal Khashoggi cut into pieces while still alive and then burned his body in a diplomatic facility. That's who Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk partnered with. Think about that. https://t.co/NsbFSUqizV
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Because she spoke out about her brother's kidnapping, Areej was threatened. Like many of us, she figured the only way through it was to get LOUDER. But that just led to more hostile espionage acts abetted by Twitter. https://t.co/HBPMouuQz3
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Remember - the FBI's former General Counsel, Jim Baker, was the General Counsel for Twitter - and the company didn't do shit about this. Twitter let dictators attack anyone who dared *think* of justice. https://t.co/5au5Wdlvb9
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Twitter's real owners will find you and pull your toenails out if you tweet the wrong way. See if TechCrunch will write a story on it. I'll wait. https://t.co/lDBQ76IjPB
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
Aaaand the claims and prayer for relief. Under 18 USC 1962 - RICO. As it should be. https://t.co/zlFTL4nI0j

It's time for Silicon Valley to explain itself. Now. </THREAD> https://t.co/0OGElRmklf
@ericgarland - Eric Garland
ADDENDUM From the lawsuit, this is what Twitter has been giving out to your would-be torturers in case you tweet the wrong ideas: - Date of birth - Phone number - IP address (possibly location) - email That's so Saudis and others can know who to attack. https://t.co/FCqSvAxHuR
