The Brett Kimberlin Saga:

Follow this link to my BLOCKBUSTER STORY of how Brett Kimberlin, a convicted terrorist and perjurer, attempted to frame me for a crime, and then got me arrested for blogging when I exposed that misconduct to the world. That sounds like an incredible claim, but I provide primary documents and video evidence proving that he did this. And if you are moved by this story to provide a little help to myself and other victims of Mr. Kimberlin’s intimidation, such as Robert Stacy McCain, you can donate at the PayPal buttons on the right. And I thank everyone who has done so, and will do so.

Leaving the Video Gulag

This is the latest post in what I half-jokingly call The Kimberlin Saga®.  If you are new to the story, that’s okay! Not everyone reads my blog.  The short version is that Kimberlin has been harassing me for over a year, his worst conduct being when he attempted to frame me for a crime.  I recognize that this might sound like an incredible claim, but I provide video and documentary evidence of that fact; in other words, you don’t have to believe my word.  You only have to believe your eyes.  So, if you are new to the story, go to this page and you’ll be able to catch up on what has been happening.


So life has been busy in the last few days, with CPAC and Brett Kimberlin stalking me by proxy at CPAC (story to come later) and otherwise covering the sights and sounds.  But in the midst of all of this, I learned that Bill Schmuckfeldt’s er... Schmalfeldt’s DMCA takedown of several of my posts had expired.  As you might remember, Brett Kimberlin’s self-described “friend” and an employee of Breitbart Unmasked (which was recently revealed to be owned by Brett Kimberlin) managed to gulag my YouTube account and several posts at this blog.  I argued at the time that Schmalfeldt was putting forth a false copyright claim and it turns out I was right.  Several of the YouTube claims have expired and once all of them have the account should be unsuspended.  And several of the posts here have, too.

Like what?  Like these:

1.         The “Journalist” Bill Schmalfeldt—demonstrating that Bill Schmalfeldt is not even pretending very much to be a journalist.

2.         Bill Schmalfeldt and the California Penal Code—pointing out how his threats against myself, Lee Stranahan, John Hoge and particularly Patrick Frey might create certain kinds of legal trouble for him.

3.         Video: Bill Schmalfeldt Lies About His Relationship With Brett Kimberlin—written before Kimberlin was caught describing Schmalfeldt as his friend and before Schmalfeldt revealed his employer—Breitbart Unmasked—was Brett Kimberlin it catches him making two statements that couldn’t possibly be true.

4.         Video: Bill Schmalfeldt and the Law of Copyright—where I school Schamfeldt on the law of Copyright and point out he himself violates the copyrights of others.  He said at the time I was wrong on the law.  But the fact this post is back proves he was wrong.

5.         BREAKING: John Hoge Has Placed a Temporary Peace Order on Bill Schmalfeldt—self-explanatory, and indeed since then Mr. Hoge lost the final peace order hearing when Bill Schmalfeldt lied under oath.

6.         Bill Schmalfeldt Tries and Hilariously Fails to Explain Away His Threats—Bill Schmalfeldt tries his best to backpedal and explain that his threats weren’t actually threats.  Because it was Shakespeare, or something.

7.         Bill Schmalfeldt Puts My Account in the YouTube Gulag—announcing that my YouTube Account had been gulaged and showing you all the videos he didn’t want you to see.

Now in many of those cases, the video itself is from youtube and still suspended.  But you can see virtually all of those videos, with this post.  So I suggest you open that post in a separate tab and switch over at the appropriate time.

Each of these post we can now engaged in fair use, so much so that Bill Schmalfeldt was not willing to sue to take it down.  He probably didn’t want to waste the money and risk sanctions for such a frivolous case.

So take a moment to look at the posts that Bill Schmalfeldt doesn’t want you to see.  He didn’t try to hide what I said about him because it made him look so good, or because he could successfully refute what I said about him.  No, he did it because it made him look bad, because it was irrefutable, and because he hates Freedom of Expression.  Just like his self-described “friend” Brett Kimberlin.

And Monday, I think I will put up another video he won’t like.

My wife and I have lost our jobs due to the harassment of convicted terrorist Brett Kimberlin, including an attempt to get us killed and to frame me for a crime carrying a sentence of up to ten years.  I know that claim sounds fantastic, but if you read starting here, you will see absolute proof of these claims using documentary and video evidence.  If you would like to help in the fight to hold Mr. Kimberlin accountable, please hit the Blogger’s Defense Team button on the right.  And thank you.

Disclaimer:

I have accused some people, particularly Brett Kimberlin, of reprehensible conduct.  In some cases, the conduct is even criminal.  In all cases, the only justice I want is through the appropriate legal process—such as the criminal justice system.  I do not want to see vigilante violence against any person or any threat of such violence.  This kind of conduct is not only morally wrong, but it is counter-productive.

In the particular case of Brett Kimberlin, I do not want you to even contact him.  Do not call him.  Do not write him a letter.  Do not write him an email.  Do not text-message him.  Do not engage in any kind of directed communication.  I say this in part because under Maryland law, that can quickly become harassment and I don’t want that to happen to him.

And for that matter, don’t go on his property.  Don’t sneak around and try to photograph him.  Frankly try not to even be within his field of vision.  Your behavior could quickly cross the line into harassment in that way too (not to mention trespass and other concerns).

And do not contact his organizations, either.  And most of all, leave his family alone.

The only exception to all that is that if you are reporting on this, there is of course nothing wrong with contacting him for things like his official response to any stories you might report.  And even then if he tells you to stop contacting him, obey that request.  That this is a key element in making out a harassment claim under Maryland law—that a person asks you to stop and you refuse.

And let me say something else.  In my heart of hearts, I don’t believe that any person supporting me has done any of the above.  But if any of you have, stop it, and if you haven’t don’t start.

  1. Schmalfeldt's attempts at censorship can only work one time, for a short while. All that one needs to do is prepare for the next attempt is to save the source video at a remote location. Then, if Schmalfeldt tries to pull this crap a second time we can organize a "Everybody post a Schmalfeldt video" protest!

  2. IANAL but I think there are some significant civil penalties for fraudulent DMCA notices. Just ask Diebold - @FlynnsTake
