Family Court Free Press: Wall Street dad Dave Weigel and journalist Richard Luthmann expose corruption, betrayal, and “journalistic treason.”

Family Court Free Press Showdown: Wall Street Dad and Firebrand Journo Expose “Treason” in the System

    Wall Street whistleblower Dave Weigel and firebrand journalist Richard Luthmann are teaming up to blow the lid off America’s family court racket. Together with the Family Court Fraud Warrior Project, they accuse the system of systemic dishonesty, judicial corruption, and “journalistic treason.” Weigel calls Luthmann “a rare bird” with the guts to publish names and faces the mainstream media won’t touch. Their exposés have shifted power dynamics, sparked outrage, and ignited reform. But the fight has fractured reformers, with California journalist Susan Bassi accused of betraying victims by burying stories. The stakes are clear: Is press freedom already dead in family court?

    Mainstream Media’s Journalistic Treason: Family court fraud ignored, fueling a system of profiteering, corruption, and child trafficking.

    Mainstream Media’s Journalistic Treason: The Family Court Cover‑Up

      Family courts across America operate like rackets, not courts. Judges, lawyers, and guardians exploit families for profit, hiding behind vague doctrines and sealed files. The media plays its part, parroting “no evidence” of fraud while ignoring thousands of families who scream otherwise. Whistleblowers call it a “business model of fraud” and “designer child trafficking.” Elected officials like Mark Finchem and Rachel Keshel in Arizona, Tammy Nichols in Idaho, and reformers like Dave Weigel in New York, Rabbi Jacob Bellinski in Colorado, and Matt Grant in Missouri are pushing back. But mainstream journalists, often aligned with trial lawyers and donor-class interests, have betrayed the public trust. Critics call this betrayal: Journalistic Treason.

      Susan Bassi’s Journalistic Treason

        A bitter feud has erupted inside the family court reform movement, now dubbed “Susan Bassi’s Journalistic Treason.” Once hailed as a transparency crusader, California journalist Susan Bassi stands accused of betraying protective parents by torpedoing the case of Julie Holburn, a mother fighting to expose abuse and corruption in Orange County. Richard Luthmann, Michael Volpe, and Family Court Fraud Warrior Project leader Dave Weigel have blasted Bassi as a turncoat protecting the very system she once vowed to fight. The fallout has sparked a civil war, leaving the reform movement fractured and Bassi’s credibility under fire.
