Prelude To Detroit: Ted Cruz Releases His Religious Freedom Restoration Act Legal Defense Playbook On Parental Rights.

Ted Cruz is releasing his talking points playbook on the Religious Freedom Restoration Act battle to continue stealin' the children, land & vote. 

Ted also ran with the crew, John Roberts and Brett Kavanaugh on the Bush v. Gore case.

That means he was mean to my Sweetie.

Naughty, naughty Ted!


I also know Jeff Sessions may possess mastery on the original intent of the Religious Land Use and Institutional Persons Act.


But, I absolutely know that this is about trafficking tiny humans, or rather, in a nutshell, gerrymandering.

DOJ Bust Child Protective Services In Trafficking Tiny Humans Christian Operations

They all do it.

There are multiple schemes.

The main point I am trying to make is that it only takes a call to CPS and your life if over.

It is obvious that these churches did not file the proper paperwork for legal guardianship of the parents, otherwise, this would not have been illegal and they would have standing for all actions of asset forfeiture, which, of course, includes SNAP, Medicaid, vote, and use of identification to take out mortgages in their names.

The more you have in your human asset management systems for doing the work of the lord, the more you can financially leverage your operations and own properties, under religious land use, nonprofit exemptions and exceptions.

Without "The Poors" (always said with clinched teeth) these christian operations would shutter, leaving people with no brick and mortar to worship the lord to save their souls from a life like those wretched souls they like to save.

The practice is called capitalism, otherwise known as the residuals of the peculiar institution.

Praise the lord.


Two Former Church Members Admit Forced Labor Conspiracy

SAN DIEGO – Jose Gaytan and Sonia Murillo, defendants affiliated with Imperial Valley Ministries, pleaded guilty to labor trafficking charges in federal court today, admitting that they participated in a forced labor conspiracy.
Gaytan and Murillo were previously indicted with ten other defendants on charges they held program participants against their will, coerced participants to surrender welfare benefits, and compelled participants to panhandle for the financial benefit of the church leaders.
Both Gaytan and Murillo admitted to conspiring with the other defendants to benefit financially from the forced labor conspiracy. In particular, both Gaytan and Murillo admitted defendant Victor Gonzalez, the former pastor of IVM, instructed all directors in charge of IVM properties to screw or nail windows shut and keep doors locked from the inside in order to prevent IVM participants from leaving. Gaytan added that Gonzalez and another IVM leader told him it was necessary to continue recruiting participants into IVM and prevent participants from leaving in order to increase fundraising proceeds for the benefit of IVM.
Murillo implicated additional defendants who punished her for allowing IVM participants to leave. Both Gaytan and Murillo added that various co-defendants had directed them to falsely instruct female participants that Child Protective Services would take their children, or fail to return them, if they left IVM.
IVM operated a non-denominational church headquartered in El Centro, and had opened approximately 30 affiliate churches throughout the United States and Mexico, including Los Angeles, Santa Ana and San Jose, California; Las Vegas, Nevada; Phoenix, Arizona; and Brownsville, Texas. IVM’s express purpose is to “restore” drug addicts at faith-based rehabilitation group homes and raise money to open churches in other cities to do the same.
In addition to their church and main office, IVM owns and operates two women’s group homes and a men’s group home in the El Centro area. IVM also operated homes in Calexico and Chula Vista. Many participants were recruited from outside of El Centro, including San Diego, and as far away as Texas. IVM members allegedly induced participants to accompany them to receive free food and shelter with the false promise that they would be provided resources to return home. Many participants, including those who did not require rehabilitation services, claimed they were later held at IVM properties against their will.
The indictment alleges that all of the defendants confiscated identification documents in order to prevent IVM participants from leaving IVM and to maintain their labor. IVM leaders checked in participants at the IVM group homes, where they were required to sign agreements to adhere to rules, including never leaving the house unaccompanied, and turning over all identifications and personal items.
Both Gaytan and Murillo admitted they helped enforce the IVM rules by checking in new IVM participants, obtaining and using their Electronic Benefits Transaction cards obtained through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), and requiring participants to panhandle on behalf of IVM. Gaytan and Murillo also pleaded guilty to a separate offense of Benefits Fraud based upon their unauthorized acquisition of SNAP benefits from others, in violation of Food Stamp Regulations.
Gaytan entered his guilty plea before U.S. Magistrate Judge Linda Lopez and Murillo entered her guilty plea before U.S. Magistrate Judge F.A. Gossett. Both are scheduled to be sentenced by U.S. District Judge Barry Ted Moskowitz on May 5, 2020.
“The most vulnerable among us are entitled to the protection of the law,” said U.S. Attorney Robert Brewer. “We encourage everyone to help identify forced labor victims in all locations or situations where exploitation is possible.” Mr. Brewer added that his office would be hosting a forum on forced labor on April 23, 2020, to bring together law enforcement agencies, non-governmental organizations, and community organizations that may encounter potential victims of forced labor, all in an effort to increase the identification of victims and prosecute those who exploit them.
Brewer praised FBI agents and prosecutor Chris Tenorio for excellent work on this important case.
DEFENDANTS                                            Case Number 19CR3255-BTM                                     
Jose Gaytan                                                    Age: 47                                   El Centro, CA
Sonia Murillo                                                  Age: 51                                   El Centro, CA
SUMMARY OF CHARGES
Conspiracy to Commit Forced Labor and Benefits Fraud – Title 18, U.S.C., Section 371
Maximum penalty: five years’ imprisonment and $250,000 fine
Food Stamp Act (Benefits Fraud) – Title 7, U.S.C., Section 2024(b)
Maximum penalty: 20 years’ imprisonment and $250,000 fine (If the benefits were $5,000 or more)
AGENCY
Federal Bureau of Investigation
*The charges and allegations contained in an indictment or complaint are merely accusations, and the defendants are considered innocent unless and until proven guilty.
*This case is the result of the ongoing efforts of the Violent Crime and Human Trafficking (VCHT) Section. Formed in 2019, by U.S. Attorney Robert Brewer, the VCHT is tasked with leading collaborations between federal and local law enforcement in the investigation and prosecution of cases involving violent crimes, firearms and gang cases; sex trafficking and child exploitation; civil rights, and labor trafficking. The VCHT Section oversees the Southern District of California Coordinators for Project Safe Neighborhoods, Human Trafficking, and Project Safe Childhood. The VCHT Section also provides federal prosecutors to the downtown San Diego Violent Crimes Task Force-Gang Group, the North County Gang Task Force, and the East County Gang Task Force.

If The Pope Can Do It - All Churches, Mosques, Temples Should Open Its Property Doors To The Homeless Starting In Detroit

All churches, cathedrals, mosques, temples should immediately open their doors, cash out their foreign child welfare trust funds, and serve the people they made needy by stealin' the children, land and vote.

As a matter of fact, we should start with the Archdiocese of Detroit, where they can turn over all that property they are running through the Detroit Land Bank Authority, instead of having to drop even more money on the construction of more human plantations for the youth aging out of their state, privatized foster care and adoption contracts.

Child Welfare Propaganda - Even A Kid From Ghana Can Spot Trafficking Tiny Humans In The Name Of The Tax Exempt God


Give them permanent homes, not a human asset management center.

Ruth Ellis Center building 43 units of supportive housing for LGBTQ young adults

The Archdiocese of Detroit has beautiful buildings that have been magically trying to be leveraged and flipped, so they do not have to pay settlements for the horrors these young adults suffered while under its aegis, who why not use these shuttered schools instead of letting them rot, for the purposes of getting more federal bailout money, because everyone already stole all the TARP money.

How Is The Catholic Church Hiding More Than $2 Billion In Assets?


I am pretty darn sure lots of these homeless youth came out the Denby Salvation Army historic institution.


What better and immediate way to provide relief for the life of hell these children survived under the Catholic Church.

Always remember, before they were young adults, they were children.

FUN FACT! THE MEL TROTTER HOUSE IN GRAND RAPIDS BARS GAY YOUTH FROM ITS HOMELESS SHELTER

19th Century Vatican palace turned into homeless shelter at Pope Francis' behest

After the building was renovated last November, it opened its doors to the homeless.

"The Detroit Land Bank Authority is not going to like this."
ROME, Italy — Sitting off St, Peter's Square next to the Vatican, the beautiful 19th century palace would have commanded top dollars if it were a hotel, but Pope Francis had other ideas, so it has been converted into a homeless shelter.

The Palazzo Migliori, named after the family who donated it to the Roman Catholic Church, had served as the headquarters for an order of religious women, who vacated it last year.

But the Calasanziane order that occupied the building for 70 years and used it to help and care for young single mothers has since relocated to another location.

One option considered was turning the building into a hotel as it's located just off St. Peter’s Square, where pontiffs deliver sermons to thousands of worshippers. The location is also very popular with tourists, who pay hundreds of dollars to stay close to it.

But Francis had a very different idea of the kind of guests he wanted for this prime location — the poor and the homeless.

After the building was renovated in November, it opened its doors to the homeless.

“Beauty heals,” Francis said when he inaugurated the building at the time.

“This place feels more like home. I have my own bed, room and bathroom,” Mario Brezza, 53, told NBC News. “It’s so different from the dormitories I have tried until now, where sometimes you feel like an animal in a crowded stable."

Brezza, who had his leg amputated because of a "serious circulatory disease" lives on a $300 monthly disability allowance. He is among 50 or so homeless men and women who now sleep in the palace’s 16 bedrooms.

Volunteers also provide them with hot meals.

Among them is Sharon Christner, 23 who traveled from Pennsylvania as part of a research project on homelessness and social issues.

“Even if they wanted to use it for charity, a lot of people would have rented this place out, make a lot of money and give it to the poor,” Christner said. “But what is special about this place is that it’s not about maximizing dollar signs, but giving people a really beautiful place to be, with the idea that beauty heals.”

Carlo Santoro, a member of the Sant’Egidio Community, a lay catholic association in charge of many charitable projects linked to the Vatican, including Palazzo Migliori, said the place was a “real paradox.”

“It is a beautiful palace next to St. Peter’s Square and Basilica, and yet it’s home to those who until recently did not have a house to go to," he added.

DOJ: Three Administrators of Philippine Church Arrested in Immigration Fraud Case Related to Workers Brought to U.S. to Fundraise - International Trafficking Tiny Humans Example Of Gerrymandering

What did they do with all that money?

Buy land.

Why?

Because you need warehouses to produce future voters.

This is your foreign invasion.

This is modern day human trafficking.

This is gerrymandering.

There are hundreds of thousands of vile creatures who procure and purvey tiny humans in the name of the lord.

#Time2AuditGod


          LOS ANGELES – Federal authorities this morning arrested three top administrators of a Philippines-based church on federal charges of participating in an immigration fraud scheme that brought church members to the United States to work as fundraisers, and then arranged sham marriages and other illegal mechanisms to keep high-performing workers in the country.
     
https://childrensjoyfoundation.org/?gclid=Cj0KCQiA4NTxBRDxARIsAHyp6gD85o2eKzP_-dj5ZNklKx-TequvC6K4Pqf8PcKxa0caVMEsyoEVcbsaAhVPEALw_wcB
  A federal criminal complaint alleges that representatives of the church the Kingdom of Jesus Christ, The Name Above Every Name (KOJC) obtained visas for church members to enter the U.S. by claiming, for example, they would be performing at musical events. But, once the church members arrived in the United States, they were required to surrender their passports and work long hours as “FTWs” (full-time workers, who were also called “miracle workers”), who solicited donations for a church non-profit called the Children’s Joy Foundation USA (CJF). While the workers raised funds by telling donors their money would benefit impoverished children in the Philippines, the complaint alleges that most or all of the money raised was used to finance KOJC operations and the church leader’s lavish lifestyle.

Kingdom of Jesus Christ
https://www.kingdomofjesuschrist.org/
          The criminal complaint charges three defendants who are described as the main administrators of KOJC in the United States. They are:
  • Guia Cabactulan, 59, the top KOJC official in the United States who maintained direct communication with KOJC leadership in the Philippines;
  • Marissa Duenas, 41, who allegedly handled fraudulent immigration documents for KOJC workers and secured the passports immediately after workers entered the U.S.; and
  • Amanda Estopare, 48, who allegedly handled the financial aspects of the KOJC enterprise, including enforcing fundraising quotas for KOJC workers.
          Cabactulan and Duenas were arrested this morning at a KOJC compound in Van Nuys, where they lived. They are expected to make their initial court appearances this afternoon in United States District Court in Santa Ana. Estopare was arrested in Virginia.
          In conjunction with this morning’s arrests, federal agents executed search warrants at the KOJC compound in Van Nuys, the CJF office in Glendale, and three other locations in the Los Angeles area. Searches were also conducted at two locations linked to KOJC in Hawaii, and agents fanned out across the United States to interview witnesses as part of a larger investigation into the organization.
          The criminal complaint that led to this morning’s arrests charges the three defendants with conspiracy to commit immigration fraud. A 42-page affidavit in support of the complaint outlines a years-long scheme to bring FTWs to the United States under false pretenses and to make arrangements for productive fundraisers – known as “Assets” – to remain in the country by forcing them to marry other KOJC members who were U.S. citizens, or to obtain student visas and enroll FTWs in schools with lenient attendance policies. Over the past 20 years, according to immigration records summarized in the affidavit, there were 82 marriages involving KOJC administrators and FTWs.
          The affidavit alleges that the immigration fraud scheme provided KOJC with workers to participate in widespread efforts to solicit donations with false claims that donors’ money would be used for the benefit of poor children in the Philippines. KOJC allegedly established daily cash solicitation quotas for FTWs, and if these quotas were not met, workers suffered abuse, according to victims who have fled KOJC and provided information to the FBI.
          “[B]ank records show that KOJC accounts received approximately $20 million in cash deposits from 2014 through mid-2019,…[and] most of these funds appear to derive from street-level solicitation,” according to the affidavit, which notes that “little to no money solicited appears to benefit impoverished or in-need children.”
          The affidavit summarizes the experiences of a series of victims who fled KOJC and provided information to the FBI over the past several years. Some of the victims described being sent across the U.S. to solicit donations, working long hours to reach their daily quotas, receiving little to no pay for their efforts, and participating in sending large sums of cash back to the Philippines on commercial and private flights.
          A criminal complaint contains allegations that a defendant has committed a crime. Every defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
          The charge of conspiracy to commit immigration fraud carries a statutory maximum penalty of five years in federal prison.
          The FBI has established a toll-free phone number for potential victims or anyone with information about KOJC activities to provide information. The information line is 1-800-CALL FBI (1-800-225-5324), and it will be staffed by English- and Tagalog-speaking personnel. Individuals may also contact the FBI through its website at https://www.fbi.gov/tips.
          

The ongoing investigation into KOJC is being led by the FBI, which is receiving substantial assistance from Homeland Security Investigations, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service’s Fraud Detection and National Security Unit, the U.S. Department of State’s Diplomatic Security Service, and IRS Criminal Investigation.
          This matter is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorneys Daniel Ahn and Jake Nare of the Santa Ana Branch Office.

TRUMP Rolls Out Child Welfare Reform As Criminal Justice Reform

Trump is rolling out Child Welfare, the industry I have coined as trafficking tiny humans.

No one knows about what goes on behind the iron curtain of child welfare fraud.

This is about parental rights. 

He stated a 12 week paid family leave for federal employees.

He said child care reform is going through as criminal justice reform.

Children are our most precious treasures, under the protection of the U.S. Treasury.

Could Ibrahim Aljahim Takedown An International Espionage Elected Officials Money Laundering Trafficking Tiny Humans Network?

Image may contain: 4 people, people smiling, people standing and suit
Kym Worthy & Ibrahim
You can bet your bottom dollar Ibrahim can takedown an international espionage elected officials money laundering trafficking tiny humans network.

Well, it seems Alexis Krot kicked volleyed over to Kym Worthy.

I wonder if Kym is going to kick it over to Dana Nessel.

My goodness gracious this is getting juicy because the second largest middle eastern community outside the middle east is going to be partnering with the Detroit rogue ass crew to launch The Colored Peoples Revolution of the NAACP.

Yes, you are about to hear the racial discrimination cacophony in religious fervor coming from the muslims [I know, I know, oxymoronic propaganda] in unison with the NAACP because if Ibrahim goes down, so does a bunch of the "Elected Ones".

That is how those foreign invasions ops work.

You go into a community all humble and pious.

Then, you get your groove on by running dumb ass candidates for public office.

Then, when you get busted, you graciously find a method of diseminating the fact that if you go down, so does the entire network.

And that is why Ibrahim attended the Detroit Ghetto Ass Funeral.

This tale is going to call for pizza and the new CBD seltzer because the world is witnessing how we treat children in Detroit.

Pay attention to how this article dismisses the situation of the youth being labeled as mentally ill and that fact that an elder in society forced fellatio on school property, while on payroll, through federal funding under Title I, XIX, and any other federal grant.

Yes, the school is a charter school, under the laws of Michigan, which automatically kicks this into the DOJ in Religious Land Use.

Yes, the school could not just lose its federal funding, but could also lose its  charter, and that would piss off lots and lots of people.

This is what this article is covering up because it is nothing but a propaganda machine and they do not care about children.

Ibrahim Aljahim’s criminal sexual conduct charges dismissed without prejudice

Ibrahim at the Detroit Ghetto Ass Funeral
HAMTRAMCK — 31st District Court Judge Alexis G. Krot dismissed all criminal sexual conduct charges against prominent Yemeni community activist Ibrahim Aljahim on Thursday, concluding the now long running preliminary exam.

The case was dismissed without prejudice, with Krot informing Wayne County prosecutors that they were free to refile the case, should they present credible evidence which indicated without a reasonable doubt that Aljahim committed the criminal sexual acts he was charged with.

The alleged victim, a 19-year old boy with diagnosed health issues who was a student at the Oakland International Academy where Aljahim was a staff member, testified twice in previous weeks. Krot pointed to severe inconsistencies in his testimony while presenting her ruling.

It is now clear that the prosecution failed to bring in any credible evidence beyond the young alleged victim’s testimony. Krot said that though certain probable cause standards were satisfied by prosecution, they were unable to show that their key witness was credible.

This lack of credibility, coupled with a lack of solid evidence, led Krot to decide that Aljahim’s case would not be bound over to a higher court for a trial.

The alleged victim’s family, as well as Aljahim’s supporters and family, were present at the courthouse, with prosecutors submitting a motion to bind over the case involving two counts of criminal sexual conduct in the first degree.

Wayne County Assistant Prosecutor Nida Samona argued that this was a probable cause hearing and that such hearings have a very different standard than a jury trial. She said her team had proved the elements of the crime sufficiently for the matter to be bound over.

“As for the credibility of the witness or any other questions that the court may have, [that] is something within the boundaries and confines of a jury trial,” Samona said.

Defense attorney Roger Farinha cited a 2018 Michigan Supreme Court ruling in which the Court determined that a magistrate was within legal bounds and had the duty to consider all evidence presented in a preliminary exam, including the credibility of the witness.

Krot said that this was an “absolutely vile case” and that Wayne County prosecutors failed to show evidence of all four elements of the case: That an impaired student was sexually assaulted, near school grounds, during the school day and by a member of the school’s staff.

“Proof of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt is not required, but there has to be some evidence that a crime was committed,” she added.

Krot said that Farinha was correct in citing the Michigan Supreme Court ruling.

She also said that the alleged victim’s confused and inconsistent testimony was in line with medical diagnosis that he was prone to memory impairment and confabulations or filling gaps in his memory with false events.

Aljahim’s bond was terminated and his tether removed. Outside the courtroom, he hugged friends and family and appeared relieved. Farinha told The Arab American News that Judge Krot, “did the right thing.”

“She looked at the evidence and made the right decision,” he said.

Aljahim’s brother Aljahim Aljahim said he wanted an apology from local media outlets and members of a Hamtramck social media page for indicting his brother before knowing the facts of the case or letting the case play out in court.

“We demand a public apology from Fox 2 and those people of Hamtramck that didn’t stand with him, knowing that for the past 20 years he had done everything for the community, for the youth and elders, for women and men,” he said. “It’s sad that people (my brother) helps daily could even think he is capable of something like that.”

DOJ: Department of Justice Positions Prevail in Two Federal Religious Liberty Lawsuits




Two federal courts handed down decisions this week protecting religious liberty and agreeing with the positions of the Department of Justice in those cases. In the first case, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit ruled that a federal trial court had improperly dismissed a suit by a small African Christian congregation under the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act (RLUIPA).  The congregation alleges that Baltimore County, Maryland, improperly denied the congregation zoning approval for a new church.  In the second case, the United States District Court for the District of Iowa ruled that the University of Iowa violated the First Amendment rights of a student group when the University de-registered the group for requiring its student leaders to adhere to the group’s religious beliefs, while not applying that same requirement to other student groups.
 “The Department of Justice is committed to protecting the religious, associational, and expressive freedoms enshrined in federal law,” said Principal Deputy Associate Attorney General Jesse Panuccio. “We are pleased the courts agreed with the Department in these two cases, and we will continue to work to protect the rights of people of all faiths.”
In Jesus Christ is the Answer Ministries v. Baltimore County, Maryland, the appeals court ruled that a small congregation, many of whose members are African immigrants, could proceed with its claim that the county improperly denied approval to build a small church on a 1.2-acre lot. The congregation sued under RLUIPA, which protects places of worship from discriminatory or unjustifiably burdensome application of zoning regulations. The suit alleged that neighbors opposing the plan had made racially and ethnically charged statements about the worship style of the congregation including references to “dancing and hollering” as if they were “home back in Africa.” The suit also alleged that the church had made reasonable proposals and modifications to its plan and that their religious exercise was “substantially burdened” in violation of RLUIPA by the denial.  The court of appeals agreed with the brief of the United States that both of these claims should be permitted to proceed.  
In Business Leaders in Christ (BLinC) v. University of Iowa, the court agreed with the Statement of Interest filed by the United States, and ruled that the University of Iowa violated students’ rights of expressive association and free exercise of religion by de-registering a Christian student group.  The university had de-registered the group because BLinC limits its leadership to persons who agree with its religious beliefs.  The court found that the University applied the de-registration policy in a discriminatory manner by allowing other student groups to similarly limit their membership or leadership if the University felt the groups supported the University’s “education or social purposes.”
The Department of Justice announced the Religious Liberty Task Force in July, 2018. The Task Force helps the Department fully implement the religious liberty guidance by ensuring that all Justice Department components are upholding that guidance in the cases they bring and defend, the arguments they make in court, the policies and regulations they adopt, and how we conduct our operations.
More information about RLUIPA is available on the Place to Worship Initiative homepage, www.justice.gov/crt/placetoworship.
