Trump's Grift is More Than it Seems

May 2025

Dear Reader:

Copied below is my newest article about Kathy Checchi and the CIA Checchi family terrorists as they continue to obstruct justice in my court case against them. They also continue to block whistleblower money that I desperately need for basic survival. Keeping me poor is a form of whistleblower retaliation, and it is also their way of trying to force me to accept a bribe from them. This abuse of power has gone on every hour of the day and night for six-long-years. They also continue to cause problems for President Trump as well as many other political leaders. They are attacking many judges, attorneys, and other judicial leaders, as well as persecuting many devout people of faith throughout the world (to read more about the CIA Checchi family's war against faiths worldwide, read this at my website: https://www.CrisisJournalism.com/lds-mormon-church).

Kathy Checchi could stop her son and his partner Michael Fisher from orchestrating terrorist events. She could also stop her new husband David Kanuth from orchestrating these terrorist events. In the least, she could report them after the fact. She stays silent and does nothing. Silence is complicity. Allegedly, here are Kathy Checchi and her family's most recent terrorist events that I am aware of:

May 17, 2025: The CIA Checchi family terrorists orchestrated another terrorist event in New York with two dead and 25 injured when a Mexican Navy Ship “lost power” and drifted in reverse, hitting the Brooklyn Bridge.
May 17, 2025: A bomb blew up a reproductive fertility health facility in Palm Springs, California – injuring four people and killing the 25-year-old whom the Checchi family manipulated to carry out this terrorist explosion.
May 18, 2025: President Biden announced that he has “an aggressive form” of prostate cancer. This fatal disease was orchestrated by the CIA Checchi family as punishment for him because he did not fire Attorney General Merrick Garland who was investigating and prosecuting crimes committed by members of the Checchi family and their cult leaders. They promised to kill him (I reported the threat to authorities) because of his lack of loyalty, and they followed through on that promise. It marks yet another chapter in a disturbing pattern of political assassinations. What’s perhaps most chilling is the apparent inability—or unwillingness—of the Secret Service to prevent such a covert and “sophisticated” method of killing a former President. Maybe in the future they can upgrade their protection to include vetting all shots and being aware of other methods used to give someone deadly diseases.
May 21, 2025: Orchestrating gunmen has become a signature tactic of the CIA Checchi family’s murder operations. In a chilling display just blocks from the White House—clearly intended as a threat to President Trump—two Israeli Embassy staffers were gunned down outside a Jewish Museum in Washington. Witnesses said the shooter loitered near the entrance pacing back and forth. He was waiting for the Checchi family to signal him (usually done with a certain number of car horn toots or a car alarm going off). This signal would tell him the specific people they wanted him to assassinate as they exited the museum. After killing two people in cold blood outside the Museum, he discards the gun and then strolls into the Jewish Museum. A killer who just committed double homicide would flee the scene – he wouldn’t stroll into a museum empty-handed unless something about the crime — or what came next — was planned to unfold that way. It suggests staging. It suggests performance. And in cases where geopolitics or intelligence agencies are even remotely involved, the line between truth and narrative gets murky fast. Upon arrest, he was instructed to shout “Free Palestine” (while someone “coincidently” filmed him yelling it), further underscoring the staged and manipulative nature of the attack.
May 22, 2025 — In the early morning hours, the Checchi family orchestrated yet another act of terror, this time by causing a small private plane to crash. It ignited multiple cars and set fire to 15 homes in a Southern California neighborhood known for its large population of military personnel. This was another attack on the military because Secretary Hegseth has been confronting the Checchi family's lawless conduct. As is typical with the CIA Checchi family's operations, the victims’ names often serve as symbolic communications. In this case, the name "Dave Shapiro" stands out—he was known as a music mogul and was the plane’s owner-pilot. The choice of this target suggests the involvement of Kathy Checchi’s new husband, David Kanuth, pointing to the likelihood that the attack was a calculated act of retaliation and intimidation aimed at Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro. The Governor has recently taken steps to hold the Checchi family accountable for their previous arson attack on his own residence. The recent killing of a Jewish couple in DC (the day before this plane crash) was also an attack of retaliation on Governor Shapiro, who is Jewish. All six occupants of the plane were killed – which included Dave Shapiro and a well-known Christian drummer, Daniel Williams, who was part of a Christian metalcore band The Devil Wears Prada. The Checchi family are known as the devil incarnate among some in the Christian community and they do wear Prada and other high-end brands of clothing. Including Williams in the kill was an example of their sick sense of humor and another slap in the face to Christians who are critical of the evil CIA Checchi family terrorists.

All of these incidents bear the hallmarks of the CIA Checchi family's terrorist retaliatory tactics—allegedly orchestrated by Kathy Checchi and her Los Angeles-based network. Their targets are chosen as a way to protest those who are working to expose and dismantle the CIA Checchi family cult. Some leaders are working diligently to revoke the legal protections this CIA family has long exploited and abused for decades. They prove over and over again that they are a threat to national security, international relations and world peace.

Allegedly, Senator Elizabeth Warren has been telling people that I am spreading misinformation and falsehoods regarding the CIA Checchi family in my writings. Her statements are inaccurate. They appear intended to discredit my work and stop any formal investigations by Congress. According to serious allegations, Senator Warren has, for decades, held a secret leadership role within the Checchi organization, possibly even acting as CEO. If substantiated, such involvement would raise grave concerns about her complicity in the criminal activities associated with this corrupt CIA family. I have formally requested that Senator Warren be investigated for potential fraud and abuse of public trust in connection with these matters.

It is further alleged that her long standing relationship with the Checchi family dates back to her tenure at Harvard University—a campus reportedly controlled by Al Checchi since the 1970s, when he funded the construction of a new science building allegedly used by researchers developing lethal biological agents, such as cancers that would be used to kill people when injected via a dentist injecting Novocaine or doctor giving a flu shot. If this is true, I believe this institutional history may partly explain President Donald Trump’s recent efforts to scrutinize Harvard, as the university is suspected of playing a significant role in covert programs that may have contributed to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent Americans who were targeted as enemies of the Checchi family because of their affiliation with various groups, such as secret societies.

If there is anything you can do, I would appreciate your help at ending this CIA Checchi family oppression and tyranny immediately. Please join me in insisting that Congress must investigate this family and stop their lawless conduct before more innocent Americans die.

For decades, the CIA Checchi family has operated in the shadows—weaponizing intelligence agencies, sabotaging whistleblowers, killing politicians and Supreme Court Justices who stand up to them and turning public institutions into tools of personal profit. This article exposes their long-concealed human trafficking network, their covert attacks on Donald Trump & his family, and why the battle for restitution is not just about one victim—but about reclaiming justice from a system rigged by corruption orchestrated by this one CIA family.

TRUMP’S GRIFT IS MORE THAN IT SEEMS

Since 2019 I’ve been fighting my former employers in court, whom I met and started working with in 1995. The CIA Checchi family had done me wrong many times and they had committed very serious crimes against me. I've documented everything in my books and writings which you can read for free at my website: https://www.CrisisJournalism.com/projects. If you prefer to hold a book in your hands, I also have them at Amazon available as Kindle Books and paperbacks at the Amazon website through this link: www.amazon.com/author/dillonwoods. My efforts in exposing the dangerous CIA Checchi family cult constitute a public service and a form of crisis journalism.

I tried to be very reasonable with them on several occasions, in an effort to get justice, but suing them in court became the only option because they were very unreasonable. I didn’t realize how deep mental illness ran in that family, but I learned you can’t be reasonable with people who are dangerously unstable. Adding to their delusions of grandeur, they were daily drunk and high on a variety of drugs – Monday was cocaine, Tuesday was magic mushrooms, Wednesday was heroin, Thursday was meth, Friday was MDMA, Saturday was MDMA mixed with other drugs, Sunday was usually a massive party with a variety of drugs, including crack cocaine... with a steady flow of alcohol, bong hits and joints every day of the week. They even have scientists working on new party drugs that are not even illegal yet.

Since the CIA operates at the highest levels of U.S. national security and works closely with military and political leadership, I never understood why they were allowed to be drunk and high on drugs while handling classified operations. The whole thing didn’t make sense to me. Something was very, very wrong with this entire situation. My lack of experience with courts and government aided my bewilderment.

It was my first time dealing with attorneys, judges/Justices and the legal system. It was also my first time dealing with politicians. I went to many politicians on the federal and state level for help. The job of a politician is to ensure justice among the citizenry. I sent thousands of emails and made dozens and dozens of phone calls explaining the situation. Some of these politicians were a waste of time because they were part of the CIA Checchi family cult, other politicians were simply missing in action - made impotent because of fear of retaliation if they helped me and some politicians were attacked for doing their job as they tried to help me find justice. Turns out virtually everyone in D.C.—military leaders, judicial leaders, political leaders, etc.—was deathly afraid of this CIA family because they are known for killing people who stand in their way or are critical of them.

The things I’ve learned along this journey might be filed under the heading: How sausage gets made in Washington, DC. The journey has been at times shocking, and at other times, a feeling of depression was hard to overcome. I’ve seen firsthand how justice can be bent, delayed, or outright denied by those with enough power, wealth, influence, and connections. People with power who are mentally unstable will fight dirty, bribe judges and attorneys, and even kill innocent people in an attempt to ensure they win.

What I once believed to be a system designed to protect the truth and uphold the law has often revealed itself to be a battleground of systemic corruption, "sophisticated" legal games, backroom deals, political favors, and weaponized legal tactics. Yet, through it all, I’ve also discovered the importance of persistence, the value of documenting everything, the inspiring bravery of some political and judicial leaders in America, and the harsh reality that real accountability of powerful people rarely comes without a ruthless fight to the finish. They orchestrated an intense multi-years-long smear campaign. In this situation, I was dealing with mentally unstable people who, somehow, have maintained their CIA badges for decades. Conclusion: American leaders need to do a better job weeding out the psychopaths and sociopaths who hold badges, power, and authority in government.

This legal battle should have been done in six months. Instead, it dragged on for six years in the courts, including over five years at the Supreme Court, mired in corruption because the CIA Checchi family were masters of orchestrating deceit, delay, denial, death and distraction. Their strategy: If they could just keep dragging out the legal battle, they could maneuver people, bribe people, bully people, kill people, replace people, blackmail people, and manipulate situations so that they would win. The facts and the truth were on my side; the power and the experience to easily act with corruption was on their side.

Courtrooms twist and stall,

truth delayed by bloodstained hands—

justice held for ransom.

I started complaining about this CIA family to President Obama regarding what I sarcastically called “operation half-ass” when he was in the Oval Office. Things just got worse and worse as time went on. At that time, I knew who the family was because they were my former employer and at the time, my close friends. Their squeaky-clean Mormon vibe was only a front that I failed to see through. I didn't know that people like this don't have friends because everyone in their life has utility. They use people to advance their various agendas. I also had no idea they were drunk, shooting up heroin, and high on other drugs every day. I would later come to understand that this would explain why things were such a mess and why they were so mean and cruel.

Then came President Trump 1.0, and he was not my friend. He was helping this corrupt CIA family. He denied my freedom of speech and threatened to have me arrested. So, I wrote my books as fiction and changed the names. I felt that the public needed to be warned about them. As examples of things they did to me: for many years they forced me to live as a homeless person in my car and then, on the streets after they had my car towed. They denied me proper medical and dental care. They stole all my earthly belongings that were in storage. They illegally arrested me and had me put in jail for eight months. They had a corrupt judge named Fox order me to go for a 3-month evaluation in a mental hospital because I said the names of Al Checchi and Kathy Checchi in open court when I explained the truth to him. During this time my life was a living hell of Checchi family slavery, abuse of power, physical and psychological torture and forced human labor trafficking as they used me in their war against secret society families.

Today, President Trump 2.0 is a very different man than Trump 1.0 was. He now promises me freedom of speech instead of persecution. After watching this CIA Checchi family drama all unfold over the last decade, I now understand more—and I’m going to explain it to you.

THE GRIFTER AND CHIEF, PRESIDENT TRUMP 2.0

President Trump 2.0 is not the same man who first took office. The difference is simple: when Trump 1.0 was elected, he didn’t know how deep the corruption and abuse of power went with the Checchi family. He trusted them like I did. He didn’t realize how corrupt the Checchi family was and how much they would abuse him and his entire family.

Remember when Trump 1.0 got in trouble for his phone calls to Ukraine and the Georgia election official? He said they were "perfect" calls. What a strange thing to say in response to accusations of corruption. What he was saying is that in those calls he did exactly as he was told to do - they were perfect phone calls. He was following the direction he was given by his CIA handlers - the CIA Checchi family.

Trump 1.0 thought he was dealing with political rivals, media bias, and the usual D.C. swamp games. What he didn’t understand was that the rogue CIA Checchi family were not just corrupt bureaucrats; they were running a sophisticated criminal enterprise under the protection of national security secrecy. With their CIA badge and Supreme Court protection, they were virtually untouchable. They could even kill Trump’s first wife and Melania’s mother to bully him and get away with it.

Trump 1.0 was manipulated by these Checchi people. Trump knew the Checchi family very well since the 1980s but had never had in depth dealings with the new Checchi kids who had taken over the father’s business. Trump had no idea how far they had gone down the road of abuse of power, debauchery and corruption. After the old patriarch, Al Checchi, stepped back in the 2000s, the new generation of Checchis took over, pushing the family’s corruption to new extremes—mixing CIA power with brutal organized crime tactics.

In the beginning of Trump 1.0 they flattered him, lied to him, and convinced him they were the “good guys” fighting for America. But after years of betrayal, failed promises, personal attacks, killing members of the Trump family and watching his allies get destroyed by these same Checchi family people, Trump 2.0 finally saw the truth and decided something needed to be done to stop them. As soon as he was sworn into office, he worked to shut down elements of Checchi family power and funding - he closed USAID where they had almost total control. Trump was playing a dangerous game. He had to shut down the Checchi kids’ operation without angering the Checchi parents, whose support he needed.

The Checchi’s worked hard to get Trump reelected. They couldn’t take another four years of Joe Biden. Biden did everything they ask and gave them everything they wanted – except one thing: Joe Biden would not stop Merrick Garland from investigating them and going after them in court. They were getting destroyed by Merrick Garland's DOJ. The one thing they needed most was protection from judicial prosecution for their serious and prolific criminal empire which included child pornography, child sexual exploitation, orchestrating mass shootings and school shootings going back to Columbine in 1999 and many other serious crimes against humanity.

Biden gave them pardons for serious crimes against the American people. Biden gave them tens of billions of dollars in funding. But he would not do one thing based on principle: the executive branch does not interfere in the Department of Justice. You put competent people in place at the DOJ, and you let them do their job. Biden would not fire Merrick Garland for doing his job and holding the Checchi family cult leaders accountable. For the Checchi family, this was unforgivable. They needed Trump back—not because he loved them, but because they thought they could control him better. They were wrong.

During his four years off, Trump had time to reflect. With every lawsuit, every betrayal, and every piece of evidence that surfaced, the picture became clear: the Checchi family hadn’t just opposed his policies—they had infiltrated every level of his administration, manipulated intelligence reports, and used their influence to undermine his presidency from within. Trump came to realize that he and his entire family had been used and very abused. He looked back on his four years and saw with clarity how as the Checchi family sabotaged his presidency from within. He witnessed firsthand how they rigged investigations, leaked classified information, and turned the intelligence community into a political weapon against the American people. And worst of all, he saw how they targeted many innocent Americans, like me, who dared to speak the truth about their crimes.

That’s why Trump 2.0 is different. This time, he knows exactly who the enemy is. He’s not listening to the same corrupt advisors. He surrounded himself with people that would be loyal to him - not loyal to the Checchi family. He’s not falling for Checchi family tricks this time. The man who once played their games is now coming back for a rematch—with his eyes wide open. And the Checchi family is in very serious trouble. The options are life in prison or the death penalty.

The CIA Checchi family has been stealing from taxpayers, rigging wars, manipulating markets, and getting away with murders of innocent people for at least five decades. Compared to them, Trump’s grift looks like stealing a small tip jar at a mafia-run casino. The real problem isn’t Trump trying to make a few extra bucks—the real problem is the deep-rooted system of power that treats human lives as pawns and sees America’s resources as their personal playground.

Drunk with power’s mask,
secrets rotted from within—
badges soaked in lies.

The $400 Million Question: Corruption, Restitution, or Something Far Worse?

Today’s news forces us to confront some serious and uncomfortable truths. President Trump has just accepted a luxury Boeing 747 jet, valued at $400 million, from Qatar’s royal family. He’s also launched a meme coin that has already generated billions in foreign and domestic money. The entire world is watching this unfold and asking: are these bribes happening in broad daylight? Is this extraordinary corruption? Or is there more to the story?

Based on my own experience—years spent in court battling the corrupt CIA Checchi family—I can tell you with certainty: there is much more to the story than meets the eye.

The Founding Fathers foresaw the dangers of foreign gifts influencing American leaders. That’s why Article I, Section 9 of the U.S. Constitution forbids the President from accepting anything of value from foreign governments without Congress’s approval. It was designed to prevent bribes, conflicts of interest, and foreign entanglements. Yet here we are, watching as the rules are bent, ignored, or simply unenforced. Why is this being allowed?

What happens when those same constitutional principles collide with an intelligence apparatus that operates beyond oversight? What happens when a family like the CIA Checchi family is deeply entrenched in covert power structures manipulating everything from the shadows? They can sabotage, intimidate, and even kill countless innocent people to maintain their grip on power. In such extenuating circumstances, is it possible that what appears to be corruption is, in reality, covert restitution and compensation for damages to Trump's family, reputation and legacy?

This article is not a defense of unethical or illegal conduct. Rather, it is a demand to consider a larger, hidden context. If Trump and his family were subjected to relentless public humiliation, sabotage, and personal tragedy orchestrated by the most powerful CIA family in American history—if members of his family were even murdered to coerce his submission and threaten him—then the question shifts.

Could it be true that Trump is being compensated for those injustices through billions of dollars in covert restitution, funneled to him while he serves as President in his second term? And if so, does the refusal to prosecute him for these financial windfalls reveal an implicit admission by Congress and the courts that he was used as a pawn in his first term by clandestine forces far more powerful than any elected office? This raises a chilling question: How much is a man owed when his name, legacy, and loved ones have been attacked by people operating under government protection? Should these covert acts remain secret?

If this us all true, this would flip the narrative: Trump wouldn’t be a corrupt politician or king taking payoffs. It would tell the story of a man, a President of the United States, who was forced into complicity in his first administration by threats, violence, and the destruction of his family.

This situation highlights a disturbing reality: agencies like the CIA have become so powerful, so deeply entrenched in corruption, that ignoring the Constitution and creating alternate, covert avenues for justice becomes the path of least resistance. When the crimes of a CIA family are deemed too explosive to reveal to the American public, clandestine restitution becomes the quiet, unspoken settlement.

Congress now faces a defining choice. Soon they might vote on whether to approve Trump’s acceptance of the $400 million jet. But this vote isn’t just about a plane. It’s about whether the United States is still governed by its own Constitution—or whether real power has shifted into the shadows, where intelligence agencies, foreign money, and covert influence dictate who wins and who loses.

Restitution cloaked,
coins and jets in plainest view—
what is owed, disguised.

But behind the sensational headlines, my theory suggests something even more disturbing. If it's true that Trump isn’t simply pocketing bribes, but receiving a kind of compensation or restitution for the humiliation, sabotage, and personal tragedy inflicted upon him by the rogue CIA Checchi family - than what does that mean for the rest of us who are due compensation for crimes against us that were committed by a spy or spy network?

Courts routinely order financial compensation as a form of justice in a dispute where harm has been done. In my own case against the Checchi family, the courts (in 2019!) rightly ordered that they pay me money. They refuse to pay me because that would prove all my writing about them is true. The Checchi family says they are not obliged to follow orders from any man or court because they are above the law. Al Checchi says that he is emperor of the world, and his family are all kings and queens of that empire - controlling everything on Earth. Is this mental illness and delusional or a new reality in America?

For now, the American public is left to decide whether they believe that Trump's situation is corruption—or restitution. Whether Trump is the villain, the victim, or perhaps a little of both. Because in the end, this isn’t just about Trump. It’s about whether America belongs to its citizens—or whether it has already been sold to the highest bidder, one backroom secret deal at a time.

Let’s be clear: there is nothing in the Constitution about secret agencies or the CIA. This clandestine reality has developed over time, without direct consent from the American people. Having spent nearly six years in court fighting the corrupt CIA Checchi family, I have seen firsthand how ordinary citizens are at a severe disadvantage when confronting these entrenched powers.

On some days the details of my own court case are kept from me because I am not allowed an attorney to speak with directly. I am not allowed to have direct communication with anyone involved in the case. I don't get updates in writing or emails. At times I have not been allowed to know the details of the charges that they make against me. These are direct violations of my constitutional rights. It should not be this way. The citizens of the United States should take precedence over spies. People committed to duplicity, manipulation, and deceit should not hold power over those Americans who live with integrity, sincerity, genuineness, and authenticity.

History gives us a stark warning. In the early 1960s, President John F. Kennedy was also set up and embarrassed by people within the CIA. He was infuriated by the Bay of Pigs debacle and vowed to his inner circle that he would “shatter the CIA into a thousand pieces” for its betrayal and lies. Shortly thereafter, he was assassinated. Recently declassified documents suggested extensive CIA involvement in his murder. Since the 1960s, the CIA has grown exponentially in both size and power.

If I could say one thing to President Trump, it would be this: you deserve compensation for what the CIA Checchi family did to you and your family. Everyone who has been hurt by this corrupt, evil CIA family deserves compensation and restitution for what they have suffered at their hands. But in Jack Kennedy’s honor, you must also finish what he could not. Shatter the CIA into a million pieces before they kill you. These people have grown too big, too powerful, and the American people should come before the ambitions of a secretive bureaucracy that answers to no one.

It is a fact the Checchi family orchestrated over 3,500 mass shootings and school shootings from 2017 - 2025 to protest court rulings against them. It is a fact they orchestrated 9/11 to make problems for their arch enemy President Bush. It is a fact they orchestrated the COVID pandemic as retaliation for investigations into their network and over 20 million people died worldwide. It is a fact that for decades they have manipulated wars and in doing so they have forced over 100 million people to flee their homes and become refugees. It is a fact they killed Pope Francis because he was squeezing their spies out of the Catholic Church. It is a fact that they killed two sitting Supreme Court Justices because they did not support the Checchi family in cases before the Court. It is a fact that they manipulated Russia to invade Ukraine. It is a fact that they manipulated Hamas to kill 1,200 Jews on October 7, which also started a war in the middle east. These facts are only 'the tip of the iceberg' regarding their extreme corruption and crimes against humanity. The CIA Checchi family is too powerful, too reckless, too ruthless and too un-American.

The intelligence community was never meant to be a shadow government, manipulating elected officials and silencing dissent through intimidation, surveillance, murder and worse. Every time an agency or spies in that agency operates without transparency, it chips away at the foundation of democracy. America cannot survive as a free nation if unaccountable spies wield more influence than the citizens they are supposed to protect.

The time has come to reclaim our country from these entrenched powers. If the government cannot or will not rein them in, then it is up to the American people to demand it—loudly, persistently, and with the full weight of their constitutional rights. This is not just a battle for political power; it is a battle for the soul of the Republic. And as it says in “The Art of War,” “This means that to take advantage of unpreparedness, lack of foresight, or lack of caution on the part of opponents, it is necessary to proceed quickly, it won't work if you hesitate.”

Thank you for your time and consideration,
