Billionaire Hedge Fund Manager, Longtime Democrat Donor Bill Ackman Set to Endorse Donald Trump

Billionaire hedge fund manager and longtime Democratic Party donor Bill Ackman is set to endorse Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election.

Ackman, who is the CEO of Pershing Square Capital Management and has an estimated worth of $4 billion, has reportedly decided to endorse Trump after concluding that Joe Biden must be removed from office.

The Financial Times reports:

Hedge fund billionaire Bill Ackman is leaning towards backing Donald Trump in the US election, according to a person briefed on his thinking, as some of Wall Street’s leading figures throw their weight behind the former president.

Ackman, who backed Trump’s Republican rivals, including Nikki Haley, in the party’s primary contest this year, is likely to make his endorsement on X, the Elon Musk-controlled social media platform in which he is a minority investor. Ackman has previously donated money to Democrats, including Dean Phillips, who mounted a primary challenge to President Joe Biden this year.

The person familiar with Ackman’s thinking said the billionaire did not believe alternative candidates such as Robert F Kennedy Jr, whose long-shot White House bid he had also supported, were likely to win.

They added that Ackman’s dislike for Biden far outweighed his ambivalence for Trump.

Ackman has recently expressed grave concerns about the rise of anti-semitism across the American left and helped spearhead the campaign to remove Harvard President Claudine Gay from office.

His likely endorsement comes after the CEO of Blackstone, Stephen A. Schwarzman, also confirmed that he would be fully supporting Trump against the Biden regime.

“The dramatic rise of antisemitism has led me to focus on the consequences of upcoming elections with greater urgency,” Schwarzman told Axios.

“I share the concern of most Americans that our economic, immigration and foreign policies are taking the country in the wrong direction. For these reasons, I am planning to vote for change and support Donald Trump for President. In addition, I will be supporting Republican Senate candidates and other Republicans up and down the ticket, he added.

Pandora’s Box Opened! Kash Patel Calls On GOP to Unleash Subpoenas on Judge Merchan’s Family and DA Bragg in Wake of Trump’s ‘Unconstitutional’ Verdict

Screenshot: War Room

In the wake of the unconstitutional verdict against former President Donald Trump, Kash Patel, a former Trump administration official, is urging Republican lawmakers to take a bold stand against perceived judicial and prosecutorial misconduct.

Patel’s statement, made on Truth Social, demands lawmakers investigate financial gains made by the family of Judge Juan Merchan and examine connections between the Manhattan District Attorney’s office and the Biden White House.

“Congress: Subpoena the bank records for Merchan’s daughter- find out how much money she has made for her family since her father unlawfully stayed on the case, and how much money she will make as a direct result of this unconstitutional verdict,” Patel said.

Last month, Trump filed a motion requesting Judge Merchan be recused because of his daughter’s political work.

The judge’s daughter, Loren Merchan, is a far-left political operative who worked for the Biden-Harris campaign. The media has infantilized 34-year-old Loren Merchan in an effort to attack Trump’s First Amendment-protected speech.

Loren Merchan’s firm, Authentic Campaigns, Inc., has received tens of millions of dollars from Democrats who want to take down Trump.

TGP contributor Paul Ingrassia reported on Judge Merchan’s daughter, Loren, back in April.

There is the scandal involving Merchan’s daughter.  As brilliantly exposed by Laura Loomer, Merchan’s impartiality has been irreparably muddied by reports that his daughter, Loren, serves as President of an organization called “Authentic,” which describes itself as a “digital agency” that “partner[s] with clients to build award-winning programs for progressive causes and campaigns.”

The organization proudly boasts Kamala Harris and Adam Schiff, who pushed the debunked Steele dossier claiming Russian meddling in the 2016 election, as two of its most valued clients.

Other clients featured on the organization’s website are the Biden Harris Campaign, Governor Gavin Newsom, Governor Kathy Hochul, and Rep. Ilhan Omar, among countless other far-left progressive Democrats.

To occupy such a high leadership role in a group whose client is, incredulously, the “Biden Harris campaign” is the paradigmatic example of a conflict of interest.  And not that further evidence to support a conflict would be needed, but Loomer’s research also uncovered that, per FEC public filings, Loren donated thousands of dollars directly to Democratic politicians.

According to The New York Post, Loren Merchan helped Democrats raise $93 million off of her father’s case.

“In 2019, Ms. Merchan made public statements during a podcast regarding a conversation with Your Honor that reflect bias against President Trump from both speakers in that exchange,” Trump’s lawyers wrote Friday, according to Fox News. “Consistent with that conversation, President Biden and Vice President Harris are long-term clients of Authentic and Ms. Merchan, along with many other politicians and entities who are actively campaigning and advocating against President Trump right now.”

“Authentic’s clients disbursed more than $18 million to the company between the return of the Indictment and the present,” Trump’s attorneys wrote. “It is industry practice that Authentic would receive percentages based on funds raised and recipient engagement, and Ms. Merchan has had an ownership stake and leadership role in the company while this case is pending.”

Here is Authentic Campaign’s full client list:

On Thursday, Laura Loomer reported that Judge Merchan is allowing his daughter’s clients to have unrestricted access inside the Trump trial.

According to Laura Loomer:

JUDGE MERCHAN’S DAUGHTER LOREN MERCHAN’S CLIENTS FROM HER DEMOCRAT POLITICAL CONSULTING FIRM @Authentic_HQ HAVE BEEN GIVEN SEATS INSIDE THE TRUMP TRIAL IN NYC

Judge Merchan is now allowing his daughter’s clients to have unrestricted access inside the Trump Trial. His daughter, Loren Merchan, is a Democrat political consultant.

According to the Authentic Campaigns Website, which Loren Merchan is the President of, the anti-Trump Brennan Center for Justice is a client of Loren Merchan.

Joyce Vance @JoyceWhiteVance is a Senior Fellow at the Brennan Center for Justice @BrennanCenter , and she has been inside the Trump trial where she’s been writing articles for the Brennan Center for Justice, which target and harass the members of the jury in the Trump Trial. One day ago, Joyce Vance wrote and published this article titled, “Can We Trust The Jury In Trump’s Manhattan Trial?”

The Brennan Center for Justice hired Loren Merchan to manage their newsletter (See receipts below), which features articles from the Brennan Center for Justice website. Loren Merchan’s clients are now making money off of Loren’s father, and Loren is profiting off of her clients having seats inside the Trump Trial, because per her own website, Loren Merchan has increased the size of the Brennan Center’s newsletter by 204%!

Political email lists are worth MILLIONS of dollars.

Joyce Vance served as the US Attorney for the Northern District of Alabama from 2009 to 2017. She was appointed by Barrack Hussein Obama.

ALSO EXCLUSIVE: Additionally, Susan Sachs Goldman, the mother of Democrat New York Congressman Dan Goldman @RepDanGoldman is on the Board of Directors for the Brennan Center for Justice. As I previously *exclusively* reported, Rep. Goldman is also a client of Loren Merchan, he prepared @MichaelCohen212 for his testimony in the Trump trial per his admission on MSDNC, and Dan Goldman has sent hundreds of thousands of dollars to the personal home residence of Loren Merchan.

This is arguably jury intimidation in the way that Judge Merchan is having his daughter’s clients, who worked for Obama-Biden’s DOJ, come into the court room to write disparaging articles about the jury, which suggest they can’t make a decision on their own.

Kash Patel did not stop there. He further demanded, “In case you need a jurisdictional hook—Bragg’s office receives federal funds from DOJ to ‘administer justice’—GET ON IT… and while you are at it, subpoena Bragg and get all docs from his Biden WH meetings.”

Patel joined Steve Bannon to discuss this call to action:

WATCH:

On Thursday, Megyn Kelly suggested a reckoning is coming for Biden, Obama, and Clinton after the Trump verdict.

“These Democrats will rue the day they decided to use lawfare to stop a presidential candidate. I’m not talking about violence. I’m talking about tit for tat.

You just wait and it won’t be Hunter Biden the next time. It is going to be Joe Biden. It could potentially still be Barack Obama. It could still potentially be Hillary Clinton. We’re going to have to look at what the statutes of limitations are, on the various crimes they surely committed.

We’re going to have to look at passing laws to revive those dead crimes, felonies or misdemeanors so that those cases can be brought out of time. That’s what may be in the interests of justice. Just like they did for E. Jean Carroll with a New York state law that was passed just so that she could sue him.

That’s what happened. Turned about as fair play and John Yoo, an amazing lawyer who worked in the Bush administration, Department of Justice, has a great piece out today how that is the only way they’ll learn. The only way to save the Republic now is to give them a taste of their own medicine.”

Joe Manchin Announces Reregistration as Independent

On Friday morning, West Virginia’s Senator Joe Manchin released a post on his X account announcing that he is registering as an Independent, rather than as a Democrat.

My commitment to do everything I can to bring our country together has led me to register as an independent with no party affiliation. pic.twitter.com/tvMB2N87AW

— Senator Joe Manchin (@Sen_JoeManchin) May 31, 2024

[Embed: https://x.com/Sen_JoeManchin/status/1796547335767671199]

In a follow-up video, Manchin listed political polarization as the reason for the change, stating that the “brands” of the political parties have “gotten so bad” that “if you have a D by your name, you’re supposed to hate Republicans.” Manchin elaborated that he wanted to work above partisan affiliation, stating that “the American brand is the brand that I carry”

Though Manchin has said in the past that he intends to retire and will not be running for re-election this fall, this move has created speculation that he may intend to run for re-election to his Senate seat as an independent. Manchin would be running against current Republican Governor Jim Justice, who won the Republican primary for the Senate seat earlier in May against Congressman Alex Mooney.  Manchin’s disaffiliation will likely not have any immediate political impact on the composition or workings of the Senate, as he has stated that he will still caucus with the Democrats. As of the time of writing, Manchin still lists himself as Chairman of the Senate Energy & Natural Resources Committee, which Democrats control.

HILARIOUS! President Trump Says Joe Biden is “The Worst, The Dumbest, Most Incompetent, and Most Dishonest President We’ve Ever Had” and Slams J6 Witch Hunt, Liz Cheney, “Crying Adam Kinzinger” (VIDEO)

Donald Trump on Friday held a press conference at Trump Tower this morning after he was convicted on 34 sham felony charges in the New York City courthouse on Thursday.

“It all comes out of the White House,” said Trump of his political persecution. He continued, “Crooked Joe Biden, the worst president in the history of our country. He’s the worst president in the history of our country, the most incompetent; he’s the dumbest president we’ve ever had. He’s the dumbest President, most incompetent president, and he’s the most dishonest president we’ve ever had.”

Trump gave an outstanding speech that wasn’t a campaign stump speech, and he spoke so clearly and powerfully for 33 straight minutes. Meanwhile, Joe Biden is “a man who can’t put two sentences together,” as Trump noted during his press conference. This is why the prosecution and Merchan placed Trump under a gag order. The truth is too damning to the narrative about Donald Trump that they are trying to promulgate with their far-left media allies. And they don’t want Trump speaking because Joe Biden can’t speak for sh*t.

As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier, President Trump announced his plans to appeal the “tyrant” Judge Juan Merchan’s rigged show trial and the sham verdict in Alvin Bragg’s felony witch hunt case.

JUST IN: “We’re Going to Be Appealing This Scam… The Judge Was a Tyrant” – Trump Vows to Appeal Guilty Verdicts in Judge Juan Merchan’s Marxist New York City Show Trial (VIDEO)

There was no crime, but the Democrats ratcheted up what would be a misdemeanor to a felony in order to bypass the statute of limitations, and Marxist Judge Juan Merchan helped to rig the trial for a guilty verdict.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg indicted Trump in April 2023 on 34 felony counts related to ‘hush payments’ he made to Stormy Daniels.

Trump was accused of paying porn star Stormy Daniels, AKA Stephanie Clifford, ‘hush payments’ through his then-attorney Michael Cohen, who the media and prosecutors falsely labeled his “fixer,” in a scheme to silence her and stop the story about their alleged affair from being published in the National Enquirer.

The jury deliberations began on Wednesday after “highly conflicted” Judge Merchan, whose daughter has received MILLIONS of dollars consulting the Democrats who want to take down Trump, instructed them to choose among the three predicate crimes Trump supposedly committed. Judge Merchan told jurors they did not have to agree on a crime. This is unheard of in US history. The jury only had to agree that something bad happened, but not on what that something was.

This, of course, is completely unconstitutional.

The jury returned a verdict in Alvin Bragg’s lawfare ‘hush money’ trial on Thursday: Guilty on all 34 countsIronically for the Biden Regime, however, the conviction of Donald Trump on 34 felony charges has translated into MORE THAN $34 MILLION fundraised for our real President.

In addition to slamming Biden as “the dumbest president we’ve ever had,” Trump also slammed RINOs Liz Cheney and “Crying Adam Kinzinger,” the disgraced fake Republicans who led the congressional J6 witch hunt and second impeachment hoax against President Trump.

At every turn, the deep state and the Swamp have been persecuting Donald Trump and trying to stop him since day one.

WATCH BELOW:

Trump: I’ve been treated very badly by two other judges also because it’s all the same thing. And it all comes out of the White House. Crooked Joe Biden, the worst president in the history of our country. He’s the worst president in the history of our country, the most incompetent; he’s the dumbest president we’ve ever had. He’s the dumbest President, most incompetent president, and he’s the most dishonest president we’ve ever had.

He’s a Manchurian Candidate. You take a look at the way he treats China, Russia, so many others. You know, I ended the Russian pipeline; it was dead. He comes in, and he approves it. And he gets three and a half million, meaning three and a half million is paid to the family, his family, from the mayor of Moscow’s wife. And I said, “Where did that come from?” Nobody wants to talk about it. But he’s a very big danger to our country. And the only way they think they can win this election is by doing exactly what they’re doing right now: Win it in the courts because they can’t win at the ballot box.

So we’re going to show them that— Oh, we’re gonna fight. It’s actually, I don’t know, it’s something where I’m wired in such a way that a lot of people would have gone away a long time ago; they would have gone away after impeachment hoax number one, that was a total hoax. I had great support from the Republican Party, though. Then you had impeachment hoax number two. And then they formed a committee. How about they formed a committee of thugs, the J6 committee of thugs. And they took their records, and they destroyed all of the records after the committee was abandoned because those records were great for us. Now, can you imagine if Republicans did that? Everybody would have been in jail by now.

Think of it, the unselect — I call it the unselect — they call it the select committee. I call it the Unselect Committee of thugs. They meet, it’s 100% Democrat and two pass Republicans that are no longer Republicans that are no longer in business anymore. Thank you. But it was all Democrats and two wayward Republicans: Liz Cheney, and Cryin. Adam Kinzinger… He cries every time he goes on television, He’s the most emotional human being I think I’ve ever seen. And that was our Representatives. These two people were our Reps. So, they had all this stuff that they’re leaking, and then when it came time to look at the records, like where the police said and the Capitol Guard said that I supplied, think of it, that I recommended as many soldiers or National Guard as you want– 10,000. If you had 500, you wouldn’t have had a problem, there wouldn’t have been a J6, but Nancy Pelosi and the group didn’t want it.

Anyway, so they have testimony to all of that— that I did not attack the Secret Service agent in the front of a car. You know, these are strong people, and I supposedly went to the driver, and I grabbed him around the neck, and he rebuffed me, and then I went to the other guy, who I think is a black belt in karate. And he’s slightly younger than me, maybe 35 years, 40 years, 50 years. And I grabbed him around the neck; he’s a black belt in karate, they know how to get somebody from around their neck. They would have gone like this, and that would be the end of that. Actually, I had a friend that said, you shouldn’t dispute that. That makes you look like the toughest cookie we’ve ever seen. You should have let that go on. But the fact is, it never happened. It was all made up. And that was proven to be made up. It proved to be a false story. And they deleted and destroyed all of that information, every ounce of it.

We’re dealing with a corrupt government. We have a corrupt country. Our elections are corrupt, our borders are open. Our borders are going to be closed very soon. November 5 is going to be the most important day in the history of our country. Now, when I say that, because my people are always saying, do this, do this because we’re fighting for America: DonaldJTrump.com. I hope everybody watching right now: DonaldJtrump.com because it really makes a difference. They have a lot of money on the other side. I don’t know where they get it. Nobody knows where they get it, but for some reason they get money. But they’re not on the side of our country.

Biden Administration Targets Kidney Transplants in Equity Agenda

The Biden administration has introduced a controversial plan that aims to prioritize low-income patients for kidney transplants, a move Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Xavier Becerra says is intended to address racial inequities in the transplant process.

This initiative is part of President Biden’s broader “equity agenda,” which seeks to rectify disparities across various sectors, including healthcare.

https://x.com/KristiMStahr/status/1796280526304592246

Unveiled on May 8, 2024, the proposal involves a pilot program that will place 90 of the nation’s 257 transplant hospitals into an annual point-based system. Each successful kidney transplant will earn the hospital one point, but transplants for low-income patients will be weighted more heavily, earning 1.2 points due to a “health equity performance adjustment.” Hospitals meeting their transplant quotas under this system can receive up to $8,000 per transplant, while those failing to meet their quotas may be fined up to $2,000 per transplant.

Becerra emphasized that while the system categorizes patients by income rather than race, the goal is to mitigate racial disparities. Black Americans, who disproportionately suffer from kidney disease, receive a smaller percentage of kidney transplants compared to other demographics. The Biden administration believes that by adjusting how transplants are prioritized, they can make the process more equitable.

https://x.com/RedState/status/1795573260874039528

Critics of the proposal argue that it indirectly uses race as a criterion and could lead to unintended consequences.

Dr. Stanley Goldfarb, a former associate dean at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, expressed concerns that the program could either fail entirely or inadvertently prioritize race over medical need. He suggested that factors like patient willingness to pursue transplants and family willingness to donate organs might not be adequately addressed by the proposed system.

The plan has sparked significant debate within the medical community and beyond. Proponents argue that it is a necessary step toward achieving healthcare equity, while opponents worry it could compromise the fairness of the transplant system. The program is expected to begin as early as January 2025 if finalized.

This latest move is part of Biden’s broader push for equity across various federal programs and policies, continuing efforts initiated by an executive order signed shortly after he took office in January 2021.

PURE EVIL: Dictator Biden Smirks When Asked About Trump Being a Political Prisoner by the Regime (VIDEO)

Joe Biden on Friday delivered remarks on the Middle East one day after a jury returned a guilty verdict against Trump.

Dictator Biden unleashed on Trump during his remarks and declared it is dangerous for Trump to say the trial was rigged.

The jury convicted Trump on 34 felony counts in Alvin Bragg’s “hush money” trial and we still don’t know what crimes Trump committed.

Biden was clearly satisfied with the work his Regime did to convict his main political opponent Donald Trump.

“Donald Trump refers to himself as a political prisoner and blames you directly. What’s your response to that, sir?” a reporter asked Joe Biden.

Biden shuffled away, stopped, turned around and smirked before shuffling away again.

Joe Biden is pure evil.

Trump Considers Alliance with Elon Musk Ahead of 2024 Election

Former President Donald Trump is reportedly considering a strategic alliance with billionaire Elon Musk as he prepares for a potential 2024 presidential bid. The discussions between Trump and Musk were first reported by multiple sources, indicating that Trump is seeking significant financial backing to bolster his campaign efforts​.

In a recent meeting, Trump and Musk discussed the possibility of Musk providing financial support for Trump’s campaign. This comes as Trump’s campaign faces substantial financial challenges, including mounting legal expenses and fines from previous legal battles. The financial boost from Musk, who is among the world’s wealthiest individuals, could be a game-changer for Trump’s campaign.​

https://x.com/ChayaRaichik10/status/1795905424312398220

Musk, known for his influence and innovative ventures, has not been a major political donor in the past, contributing less than $1 million since 2009. His potential involvement in Trump’s campaign could dramatically shift the political landscape, given Musk’s significant financial resources and his control over influential platforms like X (formerly Twitter)​​.

The potential alliance has stirred considerable interest and speculation. Some view this partnership as a strategic move that could significantly enhance Trump’s chances in the 2024 election, while others see it as a testament to the deepening ties between business magnates and political figures​.

https://x.com/GuntherEagleman/status/1795902068181405955

The meeting underscores the growing trend of political campaigns seeking support from high-profile business leaders. As the election approaches, the implications of such alliances will likely become a focal point in discussions about campaign financing and influence​ (Yahoo)​​ (BNN)​.

Trump’s campaign has been struggling with financial constraints, having spent more than it raised, in stark contrast to President Joe Biden’s better-funded campaign. This financial disparity makes Musk’s potential support even more crucial for Trump, who needs substantial funds to compete effectively​.

The discussions between Trump and Musk also highlight the broader issue of how financial power and technological influence intersect with political ambitions. Musk’s support could bring not only financial resources but also access to a vast network of followers and technological advantages​.

While it remains uncertain whether Musk will fully commit to backing Trump’s campaign, the very possibility of this alliance highlights the intricate dynamics of modern political campaigns and the pivotal role of financial and technological power in shaping election outcomes. The unfolding developments will be closely watched as the 2024 election approaches​​.

Tucker Carlson: “Trump Will Win the Election if He’s Not Killed First”

Following Trump’s guilty verdict in his New York City Hush Money Trial, Tucker Carlson wrote on X that Trump’s life could be in danger in the months leading up to the general election.

Tucker wrote on X, “Import the Third World, become the Third World. That’s what we just saw. This won’t stop Trump.”

“He’ll win the election if he’s not killed first. But it does mark the end of the fairest justice system in the world. Anyone who defends this verdict is a danger to you and your family.” added Tucker.

This isn’t the first time Tucker has warned about a possible assassination attempt against Trump.

Last year, during an interview with comedian Adam Carolla, Tucker stated,  “If you begin with criticism, then you go to protest, then you go to impeachment, now you go to indictment, and none of them work. What’s next? Graph it out, man. We’re speeding towards assassination.”

Trump Campaign Reportedly Raises Millions After Conviction

On Friday, the former President Donald Trump announced that his campaign had reportedly brought in $34.8 million in small dollar donations in the wake of his guilty verdict in Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s hush money case. 

“From just minutes after the sham trial verdict was announced, our digital fundraising system was overwhelmed with support, and despite temporary delays online because of the amount of traffic, President Trump raised $34.8 million dollars from small dollar donors,” said Trump Campaign Senior Advisers Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles in a public statement.

They continued, “Not only was the amount historic, but 29.7% of yesterday’s donors were brand new donors to the WinRed platform…. President Trump is fighting to save our nation and November 5th is the day Americans will deliver the real verdict.”

On Thursday, jurors found the former president guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records after two days of deliberation. Although sentencing is not set to take place until July 11, just four days before the start of the Republican National Convention, the verdict appears to have energized Trump’s supporters in an unprecedented manner. 

Kenneth Vogel, a journalist for the New York Times, wrote on X, “ Wow. In 2 decades covering campaign $, I’ve never seen anything like this.”

Federal Election Commission (FEC) reports detailing the full extent of Trump’s gains have yet to be filed.

US Prison HELL: J6 Defense Attorney Stanley Woodward Refuses To Answer J6 Hostage Ryan Samsel’s Call For Emergency Surgery To Remove Deadly Blood Clots

J6 political prisoner Ryan Samsel needs to get to the emergency room immediately.

Instead, he is perpetually locked in a cell of the New York prison system where inmates including Jefferey Epstein are known to mysteriously kill themselves or beg for medical care, for days before they die.

After languishing for over a month in solitary confinement on the roof of the Metropolitan Detention Center Brooklyn, a prison notorious for its horrific conditions, Ryan called The Gateway Pundit in duress Friday.

“I can’t walk. I’m in so much pain. It’s so fucked up here. My leg is swollen, where I had the blood clot — it’s real stiff, where my ankle is,” Samsel explained on the recorded line at the federal prison. “You can feel there is something in there. When I walk it hurts. I filed a medical grievance and Sam told me his going to get me to see a medical doctor.”

For protesting on Jan. 6, 2021, Ryan Samsel is locked in caged in a filthy cell enduring the stench of sewage leaking through the ceiling, the sound of non-stop screaming and fighting among the other inmates who have lost their minds from constant lockdown, being housed on a block with child predators and trannies, starving rather than eating the rotten food he is served — which we now know is infested with maggots — and uncertainty of whether he’ll survive incarceration without surgery.

The Brooklyn prison is so dangerous federal judges in New York are in a legal battle with the Department of Justice and the Bureau of Prisons over the cruel and unusual treatment ongoing in the notorious correctional facility. Staffers at the Sunset Park federal prison are under fire for depriving inmates of court-ordered medical treatment.

For weeks, the jail has canceled Samsel’s legal calls. But allegedly his attorney Stanley Woodward and mitigation expert Sam Mangel, whom Samsel just paid a whopping $45,000 to retain, were told he canceled their calls.

Samsel’s family tried reaching his attorney Stanley Woodward numerous times to no avail when Samsel went missing in the hole barred from communication. 

Finally, Woodward responded with a text, claiming, “He refused three calls with me this week.”

Now, in a life-or-death medical emergency Woodward, is still M.I.A., out of pocket and out to lunch. 

In Woodward’s absence, this reporter found another attorney willing to immediately assist Samsel. Attorney Jon Gross agreed Thursday to file an emergency complaint that would persuade a judge to allow him to go to the hospital.

Meanwhile, Woodward asked Samsel’s family to let him know he must simply “file a medical slip” to see a doctor.

“You know I’ve been scheduling legal calls with him,” the attorney for several high-profile defendants wrote to Samsel’s family in a text after ignoring several of their calls. “The best thing for him to do is submit a medical call slip. Please ask him to do that.”

“If he has not written one today, they will not give him medical today.”

If only it were that easy while incarcerated.

**PLEASE SUPPORT J6 POLITICAL HOSTAGE RYAN SAMSEL’S LEGAL BATTLE FOR MEDICAL TREATMENT HERE***

Over time if not treated, the clots become muscular tumors or fibroids. Samsel now lives with golf-ball-sized lumps on his body as he continues to develop more blood clots. Samsel had already asked guards for help on Monday and submitted a medical slip when he realized bizarre lumps emerged on the back of his neck. But prison guards have yet to escort him to medical.

“We trusted him in the beginning. Now, he just literally changed his tune. He is not advocating for his own client’s medical treatment,” the concerned family member told TGP in an exclusive interview. “This has been going on for years, went to hearings, and told the judge — nothing got resolved. Stanley is just not doing anything to push things along for him to get medical treatment. It’s like he’s just leaving him in the dust letting him sit there and rot in the jail. Ryan’s life is in his hands at this point. These attorneys would not be called out, if they would just fight. Stanley is not doing his job, advocating for his client’s dire medical conditions.”

Samsel’s family member shot back at Woodward’s inept response, warning “He needs to go to the emergency room and has a blood clot and what are you going to do about it right now?!”

Woodward has yet to respond.

The last time Samsel was in court, when he was found guilty by Judge Jia Cobb during a Feb. 2 verdict hearing, attorneys representing his co-defendants argued on behalf of their client’s presentencing release, asking Judge Cobb to allow the other J6 defendants to remain free ahead of sentencing in June.

Judge Cobb granted their request, allowing the other defendants Paul Johnson, Steven Randolph and Jason Blythe to return home after court. Woodard didn’t utter a word for the duration of the proceeding.

Samsel asked the judge if he could approach the bench and then plead with her for the 15 minutes she permitted him to speak to “please” authorize him the vascular surgery to safely live through incarceration without blood clots or reliance on blood thinners. 

Woodward interrupted Samsel, only to utter a few words.  “He can wait until he goes to prison,” he told the judge.

After Woodward refused to answer a dozen of Samsel and TGP’s calls in December, this reporter found another attorney, Brad Geyer willing to file a lawsuit in Samsel’s medical battle with the Bureau of Prisons.

But Woodward refused to avail Samsel’s medical records to Geyer’s team.

Samsel requested that Woodward be removed from his case, but was informed by Judge Cobb that she would not grant his request ahead of his sentencing which was slated for June 13, but postponed to Sept. 3, Samsel’s birthday.

It remains unclear why Woodward, refuses to advocate for the J6 political prisoner’s medical treatment, even during this emergency.

Mysteriously, Samsel was transferred to the DC Gulag to the Sunset Park Brooklyn prison in February while awaiting sentencing in the DC court.

J6 defendants regularly complain about inadequate defense counsel, with a limited pool of attorneys willing to take their cases. In February, Samsel pursued representation from Amy Collins to file a complaint for medical treatment. After a discussion with prosecutors, Collins allegedly offered Samsel home detention in exchange for his testimony against President Donald Trump during Trump’s J6 trial.  

One defense who asked his name be withheld suggested we file a FOIA request to uncover whether prosecutors are getting bonuses for securing convictions against J6 defendants. Samsel’s family fears Woodward has a backdoor deal with prosecutors as well.

Former criminal defense attorney Jonathon Moseley is assisting the non-profit Condemned USA with drafting litigation for several J6 defendants including the former president.

Condemned USA is also assisting J6 political hostage, Marine Corp veteran Dominic Pezzola with forging a complaint that will allow him treatment for cancer while serving a 10-year-prison sentence in FCI Butner in North Carolina for protesting at the US Capitol on Jan. 6.

Samsel and Pezolla were both detained in a Virginia prison when the FBI offered them plea deals that entailed lying about Proud Boys leader Joseph Biggs having a gun during the Capitol riot.  Samsel offered to testify about the agreement during the Proud Boys trial, while Pezzola admitted on the stand during the trial that the government told him they would let he would go home if he advanced the fictitious seditious conspiracy narrative, but he refused.

Moseley wonders whether Woodward’s unethical refusal to get Samsel to a doctor is strategic.

“Maybe he thinks if he can just make friends with the prosecutor he’ll get a better deal,” Moseley, told TGP in an exclusive interview. “It’s inadequate to say, ‘Fill out a medical slip’ when Ryan’s movement is restricted. He can’t just wander over to an office and fill out a medical slip, like in high school. He’s locked down.

“There are forms he has to request, that they will ignore, and I assume he’s already done that to the extent that he can. But this is not just a high school campus. It’s a prison. S,o somebody on the outside needs to do that,” he continued. “I can only imagine that Stanley doesn’t want to ‘rock the boat’ before sentencing. I have no idea.”

Moseley, a criminal defense attorney for 22 years, was prepared months ago to assist the Geyer with drafting a habeas corpus lawsuit documenting the medical deprivation and how the assaults Samsel has endured while detained have worsened his blood-clotting condition.

“We were going to help make sure something was filed back in December. Stan interfered with it and still hasn’t done anything,” Moseley admonished. “It’s almost June.”

Moseley warns the government has repeatedly assaulted and tortured Samsel to shut him up.

“The assaults on Ryan Samsel are real.” Moseley told previously told TGP. “Ryan Samsel can testify about Ray Epps, so, they have either got to flip him or they’ve got to disappear him.”
