Attached is a link to a video of Karl Rove. He gets paid to say things like he says here. Unfortunately, Karl is not sensical or truthful. Here is what Karl Rove said in reaction to my calling Elaine Chao’s family “China People” in response to why I am concerned about Mitch McConnell possibly having a conflict of interest when considering legislation effecting U.S. and China relations. The video of his comments is contrasted here with what I believe to be the truth: Click here to watch full video of Karl Rove and his illogical rant: 1). He says I…
Last night, Thursday (October 18, 2018) I spoke at the Tug Valley Mining Institute for the 31st time in 33 years. My talk touched on many subjects but I attempted to convey that our government agencies, our national media and political party pundits no longer hide their lies and propaganda. It used to be that Watergate like activity was a big deal and it had ramifications such as President Nixon being impeached. But when Hillary Clinton undermined Bernie Sanders’ primary election effort there was no punishment. So today, political party spokespersons, well known media personalities and even the President of…
Don Blankenship announced today that coal miner Frankie Domingo says his life was saved last night by a Massey Coal mine safety innovation called a “dozer submarine kit”. Frankie was operating a dozer on a large coal pile at Alpha’s Mammoth Mine in Kanawha County, West Virginia when it became submerged in the coal pile. In past incidences of this type miners have been smothered to death but thanks to the Massey innovation, which is now required by West Virginia law but not by United States federal law, Frankie went home tonight with no injuries whatsoever. The “dozer submarine kit”…
Tomorrow, Wednesday October 17th, my latest ad will appear in the Charleston Gazette at page 2. The ad lists several of former Assistant US Attorney Steve Ruby’s many lies which violated the laws, protocol and rules required to achieve a fair trial. Ruby’s lies were told in an attempt to send an innocent man to prison for life. It’s important to note that fact. The goal was to send me to prison for “life.” The DOJ must agree to invalidate the misdemeanor conviction and apologize, if they are to make clear to all Americans that America is in fact a…
Last week, I posted an ad in this publication detailing prosecution misconduct used by the United States government to falsely convict me of a crime. At the same time the ad appeared, Republican United States Senators were expressing grave concern that potentially false claims were being made against Judge Kavanaugh. Claims that could “ruin a good man’s life.” United States Senators have also expressed great concern the past few months about Russian use of social media to improperly influence American elections. The fear is that Russian propaganda and Russian money might improperly influence American voters’ choices and change the outcome…
FEDERAL PROSECUTORS EXPOSED DOJ AGREES TO MAKE THEIR INVESTIGATION REPORT ON BLANKENSHIP CONVICTION PUBLIC The United States government has finally agreed that the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) Report on my prosecution can now be released to the public. The full OPR report is posted on my website www.donblankenship.com and on my Facebook page. The report is lengthy and complex, particularly for non-attorneys. For that reason, in this post I attempt to simplify five major categories of violations, each category of which contains multiple specific violations, of Department of Justice policy and the law by former…
I find it interesting how upset Judge Kavanaugh, President Trump, and Mitch McConnell are about what they believe are false accusations against the Judge. President Trump, McConnell, Trump Jr., National Media and all US Senators ignored that I was clearly an innocent American Political Prisoner. Truth is coming to surface soon. Will President and Senators apologize? Liberals may be lying to keep Kavanaugh off US Supreme Court. But for sure Republicans lied to keep me out of US Senate. Kavanaugh says last 10 days have been HELL for him. He should try nearly 9 years of being treated worse by…
At the risk of being like the fella who bores you with his vacation pictures, I thought I would share some of my observations as I travel in France, Italy, etc. My trip actually started with a night in New York. It was incredible to see the security forces who were seemingly everywhere, preparing for the United Nations meeting. Protestors and counter-protestors were readying everywhere, as well. It was like a microcosm of the world’s divisiveness on full display. But in Europe, what caught my attention is that the media is extremely unified on being anti-Trump. The most frequent story…
Efforts to get the full truth regarding the UBB tragedy and my conviction are continuing. Three FOIAs filed last week:
As the November elections approach, President Trump is living on the edge. He and Mitch McConnell have discouraged and angered many Republican voters. They have done so both with McConnell’s interference in Republican primaries and with Trump’s trade tariffs. The result is that if Trump wants to have a “red wave” or even avoid a “blue wave,” he will need to convince large numbers of Democrats to vote for Republican congressional candidates. One thing the President should consider is selling all of the virtues of his tariffs to Democratic Party environmentalists who believe strongly in social responsibility. He can do…
