New York Post ^ | 2/14

SNIP

Multiple sources said the legendary Friars Club was raided by federal agents this week. Sources told Page Six that agents left with “computers and boxes of files.”

The club’s finances are being investigated, we hear, by US Attorney Preet Bharara’s Southern District of New York, though a rep for Bharara’s office said he could not comment on whether there is an investigation. An FBI rep and a rep for the Friars Club did not immediately return calls seeking comment.

It’s just as well that George Burns didn’t live to see the day...

Pedo raid?

Just what I was thinking.

there have been a lot of raids on pedo in this country and all around the world....

Either that or they are being reported more...

Any Law Enforcement freepers have any idea if the rate of pedo raids has increased???

Pedo raid?

“The Postal Inspection Service told 1010 WINS the probe involves the Friars Club, but is part of a wider investigation.”

Sure as hell sounds like it, doesn’t it?

Yes, Dr., a Bad Day at Black Rock comes to mind. George would be deeply wounded. The Friars and George were old school jolly and certainly an all together kind and generous lot.

I miss Black Elk.

Isn’t this the same district office that was investigating Clinton’s emails and the Clinton foundation? What if there is a connection and pedofiles are all wrapped up together?

I can’t say, but I believe Loretta Lynch came into Justice from the very largest district FBI office, in NY.

You’re probably on to something though. I think we all suspect the worst, given more has been promised regarding this dark activity, coast to coast.

John Podesta's emails are full of pedophile code names like pizza and hot dogs which means there is a link between the emails and the child trafficking Podesta brothers.

The pizzagate crowd are buzzing with what they say is "inside" information that President Trump is all in favor of busting the networks that are into unmentionable acts against children.

And these networks allegedly contain much bigger names than the Podesta brothers. Time will tell if any of these stories are true. If they are, some of the higher ups and former powerful people are in panic mode.

Some of the Podesta brother's art work is shocking to say the least. John Podesta was associated with Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton and Hussein Obama.

Is there a place that collects these pedo code word emails? I’d like to read up on it.

Being 55 years old, I’ve got 2 memories regarding The Friars Club.

The first being the terrific Dean Martin Roasts, hosted by The Friars Club. It was an all-male club, but they did finally make an exception for Phyllis Diller (one of the funniest comediennes ever.)

The second was with my father. He lived in NY his whole life (except for his time in the US Army,) and as a professional musician and entertainer, he was a member of the Friars Club. My mom & dad were divorced when I was very young, and a couple of times when I’d visit him on summer vacations, he’d drive down to Manhatten, and we’d stop off at Tannen’s Magic shop, where he’d pick up a couple of magic tricks for me (from about 6-9 years old, I was the biggest fan of magic, Harry Blackstone & HBjr, etc) and I’d sit at the bar in the Friars Club, drinking cokes and learning to perform the new magic tricks for a couple of hours, while my father played poker with his musician buddies.

I remember thinking that the bar was really beautiful.

Mark

“Why haven’t they raided Anthony Weiners apartment”

Maybe because they already have and he’s singing like a Canary?
