The “Dirty Dozen”: The Mugging of Ethiopia by the M&M Congressional Mafia!

PART ONE

“Remember; remember the 8th of November 2022- DD Day- Drive DemocRATS and DemocraTICK Party Outta Congress Day.”

The mafia is well-known for extortion and running protection rackets. The mafia will burn down the store if the merchant does not make extortion payments. The mafia will demand protection money to keep the store functioning.

For over a year, the M&M congressional mafia has been engaged in an extortion conspiracy to force Ethiopia to surrender its sovereignty or face crippling sanctions that will burn down the Ethiopian economy. The M&M congressional mafia has been providing protection to the terrorist TPLF in exchange for campaign contributions in hundreds of thousands of dollars.

The TPLF ran a mafia regime in Ethiopia for a quarter of a century. After they were kicked out 4 years ago to the day (April 2, 2018) and declared war on Ethiopia on November 3, 2021, they were forced to outsource the extortion and protection racket to their congressional mafia family in the U.S.

Meet and greet the “Dirty Dozen” Congressional mafia family of crooks, criminals, swindlers, bribe-takers, racketeers, racists and corruptoids gunning to bring down Ethiopia paid by the dirty money stolen by the TPLF over a quarter of a century.

“The Dirty Dozen” in US Congress gunning to bring down Ethiopia

The “Dirty Dozen” members of Congress led by M&M have taken out their long knives to mug Ethiopia in broad daylight.

Well, hell has no fury like corrupt members of Congress sucking dirty money from lobbyists’ teats.

For the past year, a wicked gang of U.S. House representatives and Senators led by M&M has been gunning to bring down Ethiopia politically, militarily, diplomatically and economically in a futile effort to restore the terrorist group Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF) to power.

The M&M gang has left no stones unturned to break Ethiopia’s back, knees and face to restore TPLF to power in Ethiopia.

As a result of the conspiracy of the “Dirty Dozen” and their material, moral, diplomatic and political support of the terrorist TPLF, the conflict in Ethiopia has been prolonged resulting in untold number of deaths and incalculable destruction of property.

Meet and greet the “Dirty Dozen” Congressional mafia family gunning to bring down Ethiopia.

Senator (“Teflon Don”) Robert Menendez, (D-N.J) Chairman, Senate Foreign Relations Committee

Menendez introduced S.3199 (“Ethiopia Peace and Democracy Promotion Act of 2021”) on November 4, 2021 and stove piped it through his committee without discussion.

In 2015, in a 68-page indictment, Menendez was charged with 17 counts of bribery, conspiracy to commit wire fraud, honest service wire fraud, violation of Travel Act and making false statements. Menéndez’s bribery scheme lasted seven years. Menéndez was the first U.S. senator to face bribery charges in the 21st century!

Evidence showed Menendez’ corruptly tried to help a doctor (codefendant) who had billed Medicare nearly $9 million, illegally intervened to get travel visas for girlfriends from Brazil and Ukraine into the US and traded gifts and trips of nearly $1 million for government favors and campaign contributions.

The evidence against Menendez was overwhelming.

Teflon Don Menendez spent $5 million for his defense and beat the rap and walked free after a mistrial because the jury deadlocked.

The standard procedure in the U.S. Attorney’s office is re-prosecution following a mistrial.

But Teflon Don Menendez was not re-prosecuted!

Menendez’s codefendant, described as “El Patron” was convicted and handed a 17- year sentence for his crimes with Menendez.

The amazing thing is that Menendez’s co-defendant was convicted on the same exact charges that Menendez walked free!!!

Menendez’s co-defendant refused to rat Menendez out and is now eating 17 years.

Classic mafia: Omerta!

“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America… with liberty and justice for all.”

No, with justice for those who could fork over $5 million in lawyer’s fees!!

Crook-gressman Gregory Meeks, (D-N.Y.) Chairman House Foreign Relations Committee

Meeks sponsored HR 6600 and ramrodded it through his committee without any discussions. Meeks and Menendez are die-hard enemies of Ethiopia and Ethiopians.

In an op-ed entitled, “On Ethiopia, the U.S. Must Show Resolve”, M&M wrote:

Against this grim backdrop, few believe Ethiopia’s upcoming national elections stand a real chance of being free or fair… The Biden administration’s recent announcement of visa bans on those perpetuating the suffering in Tigray is a good start, but more robust measures are needed… Our interests cannot be met through a partnership with a failed state. A fraught US-Ethiopia relationship is a far lower price to pay than that of state collapse. The prudent course is clear. In support of a peaceful, prosperous, democratic Ethiopia, America must show resolve. (Italics added.)

Ethiopia’s national election was certified as free and fair by the African Union.

Ethiopia a failed state? America a failed state? American state collapse?

Anyway, Meeks is a certified crook who has been on the take (taking bribes) for a long time.

Meeks’ lawlessness, misconduct and wrongdoing are as vast as they are mindboggling in their criminal sophistication.

Meeks is generally regarded by watchdog groups as the most corrupt member of Congress.

A 2007 U.S. House of Representatives Office of Congressional Ethics in a 67-page report found Meeks received $40,000 from a personal friend, Edul Ahmad, with no set interest rate or repayment terms.

Meeks failed to properly disclose the $40,000 as a gift in violation of House rules, standards of conduct, and federal law.

Meeks paid $27,000 in campaign funds to a company set up by his treasurer — whose husband is on the congressman’s government payroll.

On October 28, 2011, the National Legal and Policy Center filed a formal Complaint with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) against Meeks alleging Meeks accepted illegal, in-kind contributions from R. Allen Stanford.

Allen Stanford was jailed for 110 years for $7bn Ponzi scheme.

Meeks also disguised a personal gambling junket to Las Vegas as a leadership PAC fundraiser.

Federal investigators examined Meeks’ ties to several nonprofit groups in Queens, N.Y. and allegations he misused thousands of dollars in donations raised for Hurricane Katrina victims.

In 2013, Meeks was named as “one of the most corrupt members of Congress” for the second year in a row.

Meeks is a crook who belongs in the jailhouse not the U.S. House of Representatives.

Congressman Tom Malinowski, (D-N.J)

Malinowski is a representative from New Jersey, America’s “haven of corruption”.

Malinowski is a Menendez capo regime (in Mafia speak, trusted lackey/foots soldier) in M&M’s congressional mafia war on Ethiopia).

Malinowski along with Meeks co-sponsored HR 6600.

Malinowski is a corrupt congressman who spent most of 2020 on “a stock buying and selling spree” worth as much as $3.2 million – largely in medical and tech companies that had a stake in the virus response.”

Yet, as Malinowski invested millions in Covid 19 research and development companies, he was preaching hell and damnation to those trying to make a buck from Covid 19. He sermonized:

This is not the time for anybody to be profiting off of selling ventilators, vaccines, drugs, treatments, PPE (personal protective equipment), anywhere in the world.

Yet, “Malinowski snapped up securities at bargain prices — profiting when valuations recovered. In other cases, he sold shares before they fell substantially, according to the AP’s analysis of a list of trades that his office said he made in 2020.”

Crooked Malinowski failed to disclose his investments as required by congressional ethics rules and in potential violation of the Stock Act, a 2012 law intended to curtail stock market speculation by lawmakers.

There was “substantial” evidence Malinowski failed to disclose stocks in violation of House Rules, Ethics in Government Act of 1978, 5 U.S.C. app. §§ 101-111.

In 2020, Malinowski won by a mere 4,000 votes!

In 2022, Ethiopian American voters will do their damnedest to dump Malinowski into the dustbin of history.

Senator Chris Coons (D-DE), Chair Appropriations Subcommittee

Coons has been Biden’s hitman on Ethiopia from the start of the TPLF terrorist war. Coons is a co-sponsor of S. 3199 with Teflon Don Menendez. Coons used to be a flaming Marxist in college.

In 1985, having visited Kenya, Coons wrote, “I realize that Kenya and America are very different, but experiences like this warned me that my own favorite beliefs in the miracles of free enterprise and the boundless opportunities to be had in America might largely be untrue.”

In 2022, Coons believes America can dictate what type of government Ethiopians are allowed to have.

Coons is a bleeding-heart liberal who would pontificate about problems in Ethiopia while ignoring the plight of African Americans in his own state.

Delaware, Coon’s state, has a population of 998,000.

Today, 114,000 Delawareans, mostly African Americans, are “food insecure”

“Food insecurity” is defined as a lack of consistent access to enough food for every person in a household to live an active, healthy life.”

When “food insecurity” occurs in Africa, they are quick to call it “starvation”!

On March 29, 2022 Coons tweeted:

While I’ve been encouraged by Addis’ announcement of a humanitarian truce and the TPLF’s agreement to a ceasefire last week, I still voted to advance an amended version of the Ethiopia Peace and Stabilization Act to punish parties who continue to fuel the conflict.”

Coons would rather punish starving Ethiopians with crippling sanctions than take care of his starving African American constituents.

Just wondering!

Who the hell does this bleeding-heart white liberal carrying White Man’s Burden think he is to have the audacity to “punish” Ethiopia?

Coons is a well-known supporter of the terrorist TPLF. So, the only party to “punish” is the democratically elected government of Ethiopia.

In 2018, Coons, who was chairman of the Senate Ethics Committee, let Teflon Don Menendez off the hook on ethics charges by issuing an “admonishment” or a tap (and not even a slap) on the wrist.

If the evidence was not sufficient to meet the standard of proof in a criminal case (beyond a reasonable doubt), it sure as hell was “substantial credible evidence” for an ethics charge.

Well, birds of a corrupt feather flock together.

Senator Edward Markey, (D-MA)

Edward Markey is another terrorist TPLF stooge carrying White Man’s Burden on his shoulders.

On March 18, 2022, Markey tweeted:

As the violence and unrest continues in Ethiopia, I’m signing on to the Ethiopia Peace and Democracy Promotion Act of 2021 to help pave a path to peace, democracy, and stability. The people of Ethiopia should not experience another day of violence and destruction.

Some of the “most dangerous cities” in America are in Massachusetts.

But this bleeding-heart white liberal would rather talk about “violence and destruction” in Ethiopia than in his backyard of Worcester, New Bedford and Brockton.

Markey is a crook who took money from Ukrainian gas lobby and sold out American interests.

Markey was the point man in writing a letter to Obama supporting Ukraine energy production.

Markey got a bill passed in 2014 for $50 million for Ukraine gas development and snagged another $1,000 campaign contribution from ML Strategies.

There is little difference between the ladies of the night that turn 5-dollar tricks and many American politicians!

Markey was also involved in a stock scam involving Herbalife. Markey’s republican challenger filed an ethics complaint alleging Markey used his political office to manipulate stock.
