Who Is The Gravest Threat To Democracy? Is It President Trump or Congressman Adam Schiff?

Post 36

Most of you are probably aware of the spectacle surrounding the summit in Helsenski involving President Trump and Russian President Vladmir Putin. Responses from Republicans and Democrats alike have been very critical of President Trump because of his refusal to condemn Putin for Russia's alleged interference during the 2016 presidential election during a joint news conference by Putin and Trump. I have to say I agree with Trump's tweet yesterday (7-22-18) that this Russian meddling and Trump-Russia controversy is all a big hoax. This is no new position for me. I questioned the credibility of this Russian meddling and collusion nonsense in a post on 7-31-18. Just as the President asked in his tweet, why didn't President Obama do something about this attack? Why isn't there any criticism of Mr. Obama for not publicly calling out Putin for his role in this supposedly attack on our democracy? The other big issue for me is that the Mueller investigation into Russian meddling and Trump- Russia collusion only began because of the firing of FBI Director James Comey. It is as simple as this. No Comey firing. No Mueller investigation. It is unlikely that I will ever see the Mueller investigation as being credible. As I implied in my post on 7-31-18, this is all about deceiving the American people. The Mueller investigation is all about retaliation. It's not about Russian meddling or collusion between Trump and Russia. The weak and do nothing Congress has to detract Americans from their own corruption and dysfunction by giving attention to this Mueller investigation and constantly attacking President Trump and the Russians. This is all about politics. This scandal is a national disgrace, and its not all because of President Trump. He has every right to be ticked off by this Russia nonsense. Some Democrats and Republicans alike continue to refer to Russia's apparent meddling into the past presidential election as some kind of attack on our democracy. Yet, they refuse to do anything about the public corruption in many of our federal courts that is destroying our judicial system. Public corruption is the greatest threat to our democracy. Many of my prior posts detail public corruption crimes by the US District Court, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and San Jose city officials during two lawsuits I filed against the City of San Jose for racial and disability discrimination. Congressman Adam Schiff, one of the most vocal critics of the President, called President Trump the gravest threat to our democracy. But Congressman Schiff has not responded to my letter requesting an investigation into public corruption crimes committed by San Jose city officials and officials with the US District Court and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. Because of Congressman Schiff's unwillingness to take action against public corruption that threatens our institutions of government, he is more of a threat to democracy than President Trump. Below is a copy of the letter I sent to Congressman Schiff:

Re: Public corruption complaint against officials with the City of San Jose, the U.S. District Court – San Jose Division and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals

Dear Congressman Schiff,

            The purpose of this letter is to bring to your attention public corruption complaints I filed with the F.B.I., the Department of Justice, the House Judiciary Committee, and Chief Judge Sidney R. Thomas of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals against officials with the City of San Jose, the U.S. District Court – San Jose Division and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals relative to two lawsuits I filed against the City. Please be aware that I have also notified several other members of Congress seeking their help in opening an investigation into my complaints. The members of Congress include, Senators Feinstein, Harris, McCain and Graham; Speaker Paul Ryan, House Judiciary Chairman Bob Goodlatte and Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren. So far I have only received one response from Senator Feinstein that does not address my request for an investigation.
            I have enclosed copies of my complaints that contain indisputable facts and evidence that San Jose city officials conspired with district court officials to obstruct justice during the litigation of my first lawsuit by falsifying court dockets, creating a false document regarding a fraudulent stipulation of dismissal and staging a fake hearing on a Rule 60 motion I filed and then creating a false transcript of that purported hearing. It should be noted that I was told by a court official over the phone and in person that there would be no hearing on my motion. As to my second lawsuit, Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals officials terminated an appeal I filed challenging the district court’s denial of my motion for relief from judgment without allowing me to file an opening brief. It is unmistakable that the judgments in both of my lawsuits are flagrantly biased, based on fraud, and are inconsistent with federal statutory law, the U.S. Constitution and binding precedent of the Supreme Court and Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. The judgments are void and unenforceable by law. Yet, the judgments are being enforced by the courts. I find this to be intolerable.
I am well aware that I do not reside in your congressional district and that you are not my representative in Congress. I am bringing this matter to your attention out of extreme anger and frustration because of the lack of response my complaints have gotten by members of Congress, the Judiciary Committee, the F.B.I. and D.O.J. I am counting on you to take action on my complaints based on a statement you made during the impeachment of former district judge Thomas Porteous Jr. During those proceedings, you stated that litigants have the right to expect a judge hearing their case will be fair and impartial, and avoid even the appearance of impropriety.

Not only were the judges in my cases biased, they made no attempt at all to avoid the appearance of impropriety.
My anger and frustration also results from the fact that as a black/African American that grew up in the South during Jim Crow I have been treated with less respect and dignity by San Jose city officials and the federal courts than I was treated by the segregationist government officials I encountered. I am desperate to obtain a fair resolution to this matter. To that end, I am willing to take some extreme measures. This is not a threat to engage in violence. But going to jail in protest of this blatantly racist and bigoted violation of my rights by San Jose city officials and the courts is clearly an option for me. At this point, I feel I have nothing to lose.
It is absolutely stunning that many of the same members of Congress I notified about my complaints called President Trump a racist based on an alleged comment he made about African countries in a private meeting. But they have done nothing in regards to my complaints, even though I allege that San Jose city officials discriminated against me based on my race and disability, and that these officials committed several crimes relating to public corruption. It is also stunning that San Jose city officials and courts within the Ninth Circuit are willing to grant privileges to undocumented immigrants and refugees while at the same time I am being deprived of my rights that are guaranteed by law. Many of the members of Congress I just mentioned in this letter, including you, support the pro immigrant efforts of San Jose city officials and the federal courts. Certainly, one would think that I should be treated with the same respect and dignity as non-citizens. After the humiliating experience of living in the South during Jim Crow, I have paid my dues.
It is clear that there is a cover-up occurring of this scandal, not only to hide the racist conduct of San Jose city officials, but also to hide the fact that the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and many district courts within the circuit are engaging in a huge case fixing scheme. It is my hope that you will take advantage of the small window of opportunity that’s left to address my complaints, otherwise, I will make good on my promise to take care of this matter in my own way. Please read the enclosed documents, especially the letter and attachments I sent to Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals Chief Judge Sidney R. Thomas. They prove without a doubt that the judgments in my cases are void; that criminal misconduct occurred during the litigation of my cases; and they contain my demands that must be met in order for this matter to be resolved.

                                                                                                Sincerely,


                                                                                                Frederick Bates
