Thunder Strikes Back: Michael “Thunder” Phillips joins The Unknown Podcast to expose the truth about corrupt family courts.

THUNDER STRIKES BACK ON FAMILY COURT

Family court has become America’s most dangerous courtroom—and Maryland attorney Jeff Reichert is its latest casualty. On The Unknown Podcast, co-hosts Richard Luthmann and Michael Volpe are joined by Michael “Thunder” Phillips to expose how Reichert lost his son despite a solid custody order, damning evidence against the mother, and overwhelming judicial misconduct. Phillips draws eerie parallels to his own case and calls for family court reform. From Post Malone to Elon Musk, they expose how money shields celebrities, while everyday parents are destroyed. This isn’t justice—it’s a system fueled by power, politics, and profit.

Family Court's Star Chamber: Dr. Bandy Lee sues NJ Judge over unconstitutional gag orders and judicial abuse exposing systemic corruption.

FAMILY COURT’S STAR CHAMBER: BERGEN COUNTY, NEW JERSEY

Dr. Bandy X. Lee, a former Yale professor and Harvard-trained forensic psychiatrist, is taking on the heart of judicial darkness in Bergen County, New Jersey. In a blistering federal lawsuit, Dr. Lee accuses Chief Judge Jane Gallina-Mecca, GAL Evelyn Nissirios, and Judge Michael Antoniewicz of weaponizing gag orders to silence her First Amendment-protected speech. With over 2,500 signatures on an impeachment petition and constitutional scholar Bruce Fein representing her in federal court, Dr. Lee’s battle is drawing national attention. “They may have gagged me in court,” she said, “but they will never silence the truth.”

Robot Dog Daddy: DHS official defends robot dog sex, mocks son, and gets custody. Court ignores brain trauma scans and punishes protective mother.

ROBOT SEX PROMOTION SCANDAL

Joseph Scallan, a DHS official, defended sex with robot dogs. Now he’s promoted—while D.C. courts ignore brain trauma in his children documented by top experts. Scallan shared a graphic video showing robotic dog sex, claiming “It’s not bestiality if it’s not a real dog.” Days later, he landed a $189,950 federal promotion with Top-Secret clearance. At the same time, D.C. Family Court discredited brain scans from top neurologist Dr. S. Gregory Hipskind—personally tapped by Dr. Daniel Amen to help lead the White House Brain Health Initiative. The kids suffer. The father profits. And the court sides with the abuser.

Fake Family Court Police: Meet the Justice Pretenders

Meet the Justice Pretenders—the so-called “Family Court Police” that operate with zero oversight and questionable authority. These part-time enforcers don badges from Party City, show up in mismatched uniforms, and terrify families with threats of child abduction. They operate only during business hours, moonlight as clowns by night, and claim to follow “court orders” that rarely exist. With no trauma training and six-figure taxpayer-funded salaries, they rip kids from homes under the guise of child safety. Who are they? What are their qualifications? And how do they get away with it? Let’s expose this system’s worst-kept secret.

My Three Minutes Campaign: Parents post powerful 3-minute videos exposing family court abuse in viral campaign aimed at DOJ and DOGE.

MY THREE MINUTES CAMPAIGN BLOWS THE ROOF OFF FAMILY COURT CORRUPTION

The “My Three Minutes” campaign is exploding across social media, led by the Family Court Fraud Warrior Project. Parents from coast to coast are picking up their phones and posting short, powerful videos exposing corruption, abuse, and retaliation inside America’s family courts. From forced gag orders to unlawful child removals, these raw testimonies are building a blockchain-style archive of systemic fraud. Project founder David Weigel says the goal is simple: collect 1,000 verified stories and blast them in front of DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s office. This isn’t protest—it’s data. And it’s becoming impossible to ignore.

ARIZONA’S FAMILY COURT SCANDAL

Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs is under fire for vetoing a bill that aimed to protect children from court-ordered abuse disguised as “therapy.” HB 2256, amended by Senator Mark Finchem and sponsored by Representative Rachel Keshel, would have barred courts from forcing families to pay for controversial reunification programs without consent. Critics accuse Hobbs of siding with court-connected profiteers over traumatized children. “This decision protects the profit motive and self-dealing,” said Finchem. Advocates say the veto enables financial extortion and shields unlicensed actors preying on broken families. Jill Jones Soderman called Hobbs “a sadist” for enabling abuse under the guise of justice.

CENSORED FOR SPEAKING OUT: OCDA Deleted Public Comments During Its Own Crime Victims Rights Ceremony

Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer hosted a livestreamed Crime Victims Rights Week ceremony on April 29, 2025, promising a platform for survivors. But when a journalist submitted peaceful, on-topic comments demanding accountability for CPS, family court, and law enforcement failures, moderators deleted the posts mid-broadcast. The event—billed as a public forum for victim voices—became a textbook case of viewpoint discrimination. The censorship violated First Amendment protections affirmed in Lindke v. Freed and sparked public outcry. A CPRA request and formal media inquiry are now pending. Over 13,000 have signed a petition demanding full investigation of Orange County family courts.

THE COURTROOM CON: MONICA CIARDI’S SENTENCING EXPOSES NJ’S CORRUPT MACHINE

Protective mother Monica Ciardi faces sentencing today in Essex County, NJ, despite no confirmed indictment, no allocution of rights, and no proof she knowingly waived her parental and First Amendment rights. Her felony plea deal—negotiated under pressure, without due process—includes a gag order and opens the door for permanent separation from her children. Critics call it a state-sanctioned shakedown led by corrupt Morris and Essex County officials. With federal eyes now on the case, pressure mounts on Judge Michael L. Ravin to stop what legal advocates say is a court-run extortion racket against a protective mom who refused to stay quiet.
