Matt Grant's RICO Falters: Joshua Divine blasts his 170-page complaint against the Missouri Family Court and warns of sanctions.

Matt Grant’s RICO Falters Against Missouri Family Court

    Matt Grant’s bold RICO lawsuit against Missouri’s family court system is now teetering on the brink. On September 3, U.S. District Judge Joshua M. Divine blasted Grant’s 170-page complaint, calling it “plainly deficient many times over” and warning that sanctions may follow. Grant, a veteran St. Louis lawyer, styled himself as a crusader against what he calls a “Family Court Mafia,” but his sprawling allegations and sweeping remedies have left the court skeptical. Critics say Grant aimed too high. Now, the question looms: is the federal courthouse a refuge for justice—or another fortress of the swamp?

    Boyne's Connecticut Justice Fraud: Gag orders, illegal raids, and judicial cover-ups in a First Amendment battle shaking the state system.

    Boyne’s Connecticut Justice Fraud

      Connecticut blogger and journalist Paul Boyne has become the unlikely face of America’s First Amendment fight. Prosecutor Jack Doyle’s two-page gag motion to muzzle Boyne ignited a firestorm, barring him from publishing his own discovery. On The Unknown Podcast, Richard Luthmann and Michael Volpe shredded the move as unconstitutional overreach. Boyne accused Governor Ned Lamont’s agents of staging an illegal raid and claimed ex-Justice Joette Katz secretly pulled strings. His lawyer, Todd Bussert, offered only a half-hearted fight. Boyne calls it “pretend justice” — a system that tramples speech and proves Connecticut no longer honors the First Amendment.

      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.

          Idaho Senator Tammy Nichols exposes family court abuses—secret custody orders and rogue GALs weaponized to punish parents.

          Idaho Senator Tammy Nichols Exposes Family Court’s Secret ‘Legal Weapons’

            Idaho State Senator Tammy Nichols is blowing the whistle on what she calls the family court system’s “legal weapons.” In a fiery episode of The Unknown Podcast, Nichols joined journalists Michael Volpe and Richard Luthmann to expose how judges and attorneys use ex parte custody orders and unaccountable guardians ad litem (GALs) to steamroll parents—mostly mothers—without hearings, evidence, or appeal. These tools are used nationwide to silence and bankrupt the powerless. Nichols calls it a civil rights crisis and vows sweeping reform through her statewide task force. With media silent, the grassroots are rising—and Idaho just lit the fuse.

            DC Deep State Daddy: DHS official caught in robot sex, child abuse scandals promoted as elite DC family protects him. Judge ignores science.

            DC Deep State Daddy: DHS Scandal, Robot Dog Sex, and the Family Court Cover-Up

              Joseph “Jay” Scallan III, a Department of Homeland Security official, is at the center of a scandal involving robot dog sex, documented child abuse, and elite court corruption. Despite SPECT scans showing neurological damage to his children and warnings from a top brain trauma expert, Scallan received a DHS promotion, not prosecution. Protected by his oligarch family—real estate developer Drew Scallan and the Chevy Chase Club elite—Jay has faced no consequences. Meanwhile, D.C. Family Court forces the traumatized children into “reunification therapy,” ignoring expert warnings and pleas for help. In Washington, connections still trump child safety.

              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.

                The New Jersey Devil: Diane Womer blames journalist Richard Luthmann for exposing corruption in NJ Family Court.

                THE NEW JERSEY DEVIL IN THE COURTROOM?

                  In a fiery moment inside Sussex County Family Court, Diane Womer, head of Family Matters of Morris County, branded journalist Richard Luthmann “the devil.” Her accusation came not in defense of a child’s safety—but in frustration over Luthmann’s growing exposés targeting the shady underside of New Jersey’s family court. From TheFamilyCourtCircus.com to The Unknown Podcast, Luthmann and co-host Michael Volpe are ripping the lid off corruption, favoritism, and profiteering in court-appointed supervision schemes. As public outrage builds and reform efforts mount, insiders like Womer—who wine and dine judges while cashing in on forced visitation—are seeing their empire threatened.
