The Plan 08/23/2024

🚨 Ready for a Mind-Blowing Thriller? 🚨

The Plan is not just another audiobook—it's a gripping, edge-of-your-seat political thriller that digs deep into the darkest corners of American history. If you're fascinated by real conspiracies, powerful figures pulling the strings, and the sinister connections between racism and political power, then you need to listen to this story.

Why should you hit play on this audiobook right now?

Real Historical Depth: This isn't just a thriller—it's rooted in the true stories of two murdered black gay civil rights lawyers, and their push to uncover the conspirators in the assassinations of their civil rights heroes like Medgar Evers, JFK, and MLK, all of whom who were assassinated by forces determined to keep the status quo. Susan Klopfer, exposes the dark connections between notorious figures like Senator James O. Eastland, J. Edgar Hoover, and Guy Banister. These men weren’t just passersby in history—they were actively suppressing civil rights and, in some cases, directly tied to the JFK and MLK assassinations​.

The Mississippi Sovereignty Commission: A state-run spy agency operating from 1956 to 1977, the MSC was deeply involved in suppressing the civil rights movement, collaborating with the K*K, and even keeping files on Lee Harvey Oswald. Susan Klopfer's research uncovered how the MSC’s operations weren’t just local—they were part of a national network protecting white supremacy and undermining justice​.

A Modern Twist: While Susan was writing this incredible story, she and her husband were living in Ecuador during the 2015 political climate that saw the Ecuadorian government grant Julian Assange asylum. At the same time, global intelligence agencies were scrambling in the wake of WikiLeaks and Edward Snowden's NSA revelations. This isn’t just historical fiction—The Plan taps into today’s headlines of global espionage, secrecy, and intrigue​.

Uncover the Dark Secrets: Dive deep into the tangled web of government cover-ups, far-right funders like Wickliffe Draper, and the racist underpinnings of power in America. The Plan reveals the connections you’ve never seen before between figures like Oswald, Banister, and the anti-civil rights movement that shaped modern American history​.

If you’re reading this, chances are you or someone you know is dealing with a public affray charge in Albuquerque. This might seem like a minor offense, but it can have serious consequences. Let's break down what public affray is and why it's crucial to get the right legal help.

What is Public Affray? Public affray consists of two or more persons voluntarily or by agreement engaging in any fight or using any blows or violence toward each other in an angry or quarrelsome manner in any public place, to the disturbance of others. According to New Mexico law, this is a petty misdemeanor, punishable by up to 6 months in jail and a $500 fine.

Public affray is different from other violent offenses like battery or assault because it involves mutual combat. However, the consequences can escalate if someone gets seriously hurt, leading to more severe charges.

Handling a public affray charge on your own can be risky. Here’s why you need a lawyer. A lawyer can identify weaknesses in the prosecution's case and determine the best defense strategy. Lawyers can negotiate for lesser penalties or favorable outcomes. In court, a lawyer can effectively argue your case and protect your rights.

Common Defenses Against Public Affray-If you were attacked and only defended yourself without consenting to the fight, this can be a strong defense. Establishing that the fight was not voluntary or mutually agreed upon can also help in your defense.

Drug Recognition Expert (DRE) is a designation bestowed upon police officers and other law enforcement personnel who have completed a certification process. To earn this designation, DREs study known signs of impairment associated with certain drugs. By observing suspect drivers for these signs, DREs determine the type of substance being used by the driver following a specific protocol.

For approximately 20 years, Albuquerque attorney Barry Klopfer has successfully defended drivers where the State has attempted to use DREs to determine whether a driver charged with DWI was illegally impaired due to being on drugs.

If you are charged with a driving on drugs DWI, or a driving while on ma*****na DWI, aka a green DWI, educate yourself and hire an attorney with proven skills in defending.

"Am I free to go? If yes, walk away." If not, then you are being detained. 2. "Why are you detaining me?" The 👮‍♀️ must have a "reasonable suspicion" of your involvement in a specific crime to detain you, not just a hunch or stereotype. If they try to search your car, house, or clothing, inform them you DO NOT CONSENT. Remember the 👮‍♂️ may and do use sneaky tactics of manipulation. In many cases they will first ask if you have illegal drugs or weapons. If you say "no," they will often ask if they can search you and your vehicle and they may call for a 🐶 to smell for 💊💉🍁 to try to intimidate you into allowing a search, or keep your driver's license to prevent you from leaving. Do not physically resist, be respectful, and do not consent. Do not open your trunk or door absent a warrant (things that can be seen in plain sight could be used as probable cause, allowing them to search your vehicle or home). Be aware that the 👮 can do a pat search of the outside of your clothing, but in NO circumstance may they check your bags, purses, and inside your pockets without consent or a warrant.

Can a New Mexico police officer lawfully conduct a DWI investigation simply because they smell an odor of ma*****na in the car, or see a v**e pen on the console?

When New Mexico House Bill 2, the Cannabis Regulation Act, was signed into law by Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham on April 12, 2021, many other reforms were also enacted. While the legalization of the personal recreational use of cannabis aims to shut the door on monies previously generated through criminalization, reform is still somewhat of a slow train coming. Legalization has moved at a faster pace than the police are trained. Thus, there are many illegal ma*****na DWI investigations happening right now and throughout the state. If you can establish the basis for the investigation was odor of cannabis, then there may be a solid defense to the DWI.

The answer is the odor of cannabis or cannabis extract SHALL NOT constitute "reasonable articulable suspicion of a crime and is NOT a basis to stop, detain or search a person." Nor does the possession of a v**e pen in the vehicle containing cannabis oil constitute lawful cause for investigation, unless an excess of 16 grams is visible.

https://www.lulu.com/shop/susan-klopfer/who-killed-emmett-till/ebook/product-16qd8y2r.html?

"In each of these murders, there have been numerous threats to the uncovering and exposure of the truth. These threats have often come from within our own government, through such programs as COINTELPRO, a secretive series of covert, and often illegal, projects conducted by the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), officially from 1956-1971. While the FBI's COINTELPRO was aimed at 'investigating and disrupting dissident political organizations' around the entire country, Mississippi had its own secret spy agency, the Mississippi Sovereignty Commission. This Commission spied and disrupted, with the help of the Ku Klux Klan, those people who aided in black voter registration and racial integration. The Sovereignty Commission was formed...the same year as COINTELPRO, because of the pressure the state was receiving from the federal government. Former FBI and military intelligence agents were hired by Mississippi and used as Commission investigators. Ironically, the very federal government that was applying pressure on Mississippi to change, was also using the FBI and COINTELPRO to disrupt many people and organizations trying to bring positive change to the state, often tagging these people as communists or simply dangerous."

Who Killed Emmett Till? The Mississippi Delta is not a place I would have picked to live and if you had asked me a few years ago what I knew about the region, it would have been a puzzle since I knew nothing of its history or culture -- I'd never even heard of Emmett Till.
