I met the former U.S. Congressman Jim Traficant at the June Conspiracy Con conference where we were both speaking. His story is fascinating and revealing not only because it demonstrates the role and the power of the Israel lobby in America but because as a Congressman he acted with the courage of his convictions. A rare thing indeed.
Framed, and imprisoned in the U.S. for a crime he did not commit for nearly eight years, he is now a free man and he is talking. This man is a true White Hat and a real American patriot standing up for what is right.

Great interview - thanks.

Ron Paul: "When Mr. Traficant gets an opportunity to defend himself, he gets 30 minutes? Really?" - 3.5 minutes
The Motion was a vote to postpone the expulsion of Traficant. Paul claimed that while on the surface it seems that Jim was guilty that there were many irregularities in the Trial.? Furthermore he only gets 30 Minutes (?!?) to defend himself over hundreds of Documents?!?
Ron Paul supported a motion to postpone the expulsion.

Thank God that he refused any meds in prison.

EASIER TO FIND ELVIS THAN A GOOD FACTORY JOB HERE IN AMERICA November 12, 1997
Mr. Speaker, Kodak is laying off 10,000 workers. Now if that is not enough to overexpose your most recent negative, Fruit of the Loom is cutting 3,000 jobs and moving to Mexico. Unbelievable. It is getting easier to find Charlie Trie and Elvis than it is to find a good factory job here in America.
Beam me up. I think it is time for Congress to ask themselves a very simple little commonsense question: If our trade program is so great, why does Japan not do it? Think about that.
I yield back all the balance of jobs and say one last thing here. From snapshots to long johns, American workers just keep getting their assets kicked.

I think this is what they got him 'for' NOT 'on':
Before the following Bill by Traficant you were REQUIRED to PROVE 'your' innocence.
After the Bill the "Burden of Proof" was on the IRS.

TRAFICANT BILL PROTECTS TAXPAYERS

FROM UNWARRANTED IRS SEIZURES

Washington, D.C. – For more than a decade, U.S. Rep. James A. Traficant, Jr. (D–OH) has been working in Congress to reform the Internal Revenue Service and protect taxpayers from IRS abuses. Today, Traficant continued his crusade by introducing legislation to prevent unwarranted IRS seizures. Traficant announced that the chairman of the tax writing House Ways and Means Committee, U.S. Rep. Bill Archer (R–TX), made a commitment today to Traficant that he would work to have Traficant's seizure bill included in the final version of the IRS reform bill working its way through Congress.

Traficant's bill requires the IRS to get judicial consent prior to seizing any taxpayer property. The bill also mandates that the IRS provide a 15-day notice before seizing any property. Finally, the measure allows taxpayers to exclude from their gross income calculation any damages they are awarded in a federal court proceeding related to IRS misconduct.

A number of Traficant-authored IRS reform initiatives have been enacted into law in recent years. These include a mandatory taxpayer sensitivity training program for IRS agents, a provision to make it easier for taxpayers to sue the IRS for willful misconduct, and increasing the penalty for IRS agent misconduct from $100,000 to $1 million. Last fall, the House-passed IRS reform bill included a major Traficant-sponsored provision to shift the burden of proof in civil tax cases from a taxpayer to the IRS.

The House passed an IRS reform bill last fall. The Senate is expected to pass a similar bill later this year. Any differences between the two bills would have to be ironed out in a House-Senate conference committee. Traficant received a commitment today from Chairman Archer that Archer would work in conference to have the Traficant seizure bill included in the final version of the IRS reform legislation. Archer also assured Traficant that he would work in conference to ensure that Traficant's
"burden of proof" language remains in the bill.2009

As he mentioned, the irs wanted to nail his ass also.

After the Bill the "Burden of Proof" was on the IRS.

This is the way it should be in America. The "burden of proof" should always be on the prosecution, which is the government. Everywhere but in Louisiana, which derives its law from France, where you must prove your innocence before you can be acquitted. ;)

They would shoot the Donohue Show in Chicago regularly, I knew a girl that worked in a restaurant in the north suburbs. She told me that Donohue would walk in and look around waiting for someone to recognize him. It didn't always work out that way. ;)
