This is far to large to put all of it into one post,so I will be breaking it down into parts to not overload the reader with information. I should get current with the timeline hopefully in 5 parts.The link for those who wish to jump ahead will be at the bottom of each part.Lets get to it...

The Greatest Financial Crime in the History of the World
The Theft of the Social Networking Invention
Introduction
The following 1990-2018 timeline and supporting facts provide unmistakable evidence of dereliction of duty, fraud, public corruption, the appearance of impropriety, racketeering, monopoly and anti-trust by senior United States government officials, Harvard, Yale and Stanford academics and alumni, judges, law firms and their commercial accomplices. American patent law itself has been hijacked by these individuals and their organizations.

The American economic engine is being dismantled by deep-pocket intellectual property thieves. They have made the U.S. Patent Office their private toy box.
Why patent protection is essential to America.
Constitutional quiz: What are the -only property rights that the Founders considered important enough to actually write into the Constitution?
Answer: patents and copyrights. (U.S. Constitution, Article I, Section 8, Clause 8.) President George Washington himself signed the first patent, U.S. Patent No. X0000001, on July 31, 1790.
The Founders knew the importance of innovation and invention and created the patent system to protect the young republic’s inventors. They believed patents would grow the economy with new ideas that create new jobs and wealth. But without patent protection, inventors and their investors have no incentive to risk their time and treasure to do the hard work of inventing.
Leader Technologies of Columbus, Ohio, risked 145,000 man-hours over five years with an investment of over $10 million to invent the platform that enables social networking. Leader legally filed for patents that they believed would protect their invention.
But a pattern of public-private corruption—as shown in the following timeline—allowed the well-financed vendor of social networking to steal Leader’s invention, reproduce the design, and then use their ill-gotten gains to perpetuate their crime. They excused their theft by falsely asserting that the technology system was "open source" (i.e., "free") software.
What inventor wants to spend years perfecting and patenting an invention that may then be stolen with impunity? What investor will trust his investment to a government that will not protect the entrepreneurial risk?
When inventors are not rewarded for their inventions, society suffers. China, once known for inventions like paper and fireworks, is now notorious for industrial espionage and intellectual property theft and for copying rather than innovating.
Do we want to risk becoming another China?
To foster the inventive spirit that made America the world’s innovator, we must protect and reward our inventors, and address the corruption that has allowed companies like Leader Technologies, the true inventors of social networking, to be fleeced by the system that was supposed to protect them.

Preamble
This is the story and timeline of the theft of the invention called "social networking." The thieves are a group we call the "Cartel." and "Deep State." Their motives are ancient. They yearn for money and power. Their goal is a "New World Order." Theft of Columbus, Ohio innovator Leader Technologies' invention enabled them to unify their communications, monitor and control "the masses," and fulfill their rapacious grab for your assets and your liberty.

Fig. 4—Barack Obama's and George Soros' New World Order is founded on the premise that bold lies are often required to achieve their goal of "fundamental transformation."
The U.S. court-proven facts are that Columbus, Ohio innovator, Michael McKibben, and the company he founded, Leader Technologies, invented social networking in the late 1990’s. Prior to that, McKibben had re-built AT&T’s email system in record time for release with Microsoft’s much ballyhooed Windows 95.
In 2006, Leader was awarded its first patent. However, once the Deep State learned about Leader’s invention from an unscrupulous patent attorney and adviser to IBM and the NSA, they wanted it so badly they broke many laws to get it. The invention enabled them to create "The Internet of Things" or "The Internet of Everything" where they could permanently control the digital economy in all its aspects: communications, banking, law, energy, finance, elections, defense, technology, communications, media, healthcare, education, entertainment, politics, guns, food, environment and news.
This sounds like Hollywood fiction, but as you will read in these pages, it is all too real.
The roots of the modern day "One World Order" agenda go back to the 1700’s and philosopher Emmanuel Kant’s essay. In the 20th century, President Woodrow Wilson’s failed effort to form The League of Nations eventually became The United Nations. The disciples of this soulless, mechanistic agenda include George Soros, Bilderberg Group, the 1910 Jekyll Island Club duck-hunt, World Economic Forum (Davos), Council on Foreign Relations, Wall Street, Silicon Valley, and a slew of politicians, judges and bureaucrats. They benefit personally through investment gains and insider information.

Fig. 5—Barack Obama's "Fundamental Transformation of America" has unashamedly attacked, overtly and by stealth, every major set of moral assumptions that have formed the basis of American society and culture since the founding of the United States.
World government is the notion of a common political authority for all of humanity, yielding a global government and a single state. Such a government could come into existence either through violent and compulsory world domination or through peaceful and voluntary supranational union. In such a world, national constitutions must be subservient to the single state.
Proponents of A New World Order
are betting against America
On Jan. 05, 2011, new world order godfather and post-WWII Hungarian immigrant to America, George Soros (György Schwartz), stated that the "new world order" will be a healthy, if painful [violent] adjustment." He continued, "China will be the 'engine driving it forward and the U.S. will be actually a drag that is being pulled along through a gradual decline in the dollar.'"[294]
Education or Propaganda?
The minds of our youth are targeted
Nowhere is more telling of the Deep State’s agenda than the uproar over Common Core. Critical to the Deep State agenda is the centralized control of education via Common Core in secondary education and M.O.O.C. (Massive Open Online Course) in higher education. Just like the re-education camps of every totalitarian ideology before them (like Mao, Lenin, Pol Pot, Stalin, Hitler, Brownshirts, Komsomol), the Deep State works to control the "narratives" that our children learn.
Where the facts do not fit the Deep State narrative, the facts are ignored or altered. They want to grow obedient, docile, faithless worker bees for their factories. Just like George Orwell envisioned in 1984, gone will be free thinking, free will and individuality. Liberty will be replaced by oligarchies, a permanent under-class, doublespeak, political correctness, disrespect, reading between the lines, hate, intolerance, inequality and brutality.
The digital part of this remaking of education is well down the path. Most secondary schools use Google Docs almost exclusively for their document sharing. In universities, M.O.O.C. curricula are rapidly replacing individualized instruction in favor of the allegedly more "rich" (cleansed and censored) content of "Big Data" and "The Cloud."
Universities are being connected using The Ohio State University's IBM / Microsoft / Oracle / SAP / Eclipse data center as an international M.O.O.C. network hub that Presidential candidate John Kasich approved. The supply of Deep State shiny things to lure educators, parents and students into this morally dark world appears unstoppable as the "users" mainline on the digital drugs.
Anne-Marie Slaughter
This Leader v. Facebook timeline (below)
reveals Deep State names,
places and illegal acts
Hillary Clinton’s political adviser, Anne-Marie Slaughter (2009-2013) implemented her book—A New World Order (Princeton Press 2004)—when she worked for Hillary at the State Department. She started promoting Facebook at the State Department in 2009, even though Facebook did not have the intellectual property rights. Of note, Slaughter has Hungarian immigrant connections by marriage with Soros, Intel’s Andy Grove and IDG-Accel Partners (China)’s John P. Breyer. Accel is Facebook’s 2nd largest shareholder.
Lying is a Saul D. Alinsky tactic (and also permitted in the Koran when Muslims are dealing with Westerners, Christians and Jews—Qur'an 3:28)
To gain control of the world’s information (and thus its money and power), the Deep State employs the political organizing tactics of Saul D. Alinsky. Hillary Clinton is an expert. She wrote her undergraduate thesis on Alinsky and corresponded with him.[299] Barack Obama employs Alinsky’s bible—12 Rules for Radicals (Random House 1971).
Tellingly, Alinsky dedicated 12 Rules to Lucifer, who he calls the original radical. Lucifer is one of the names for Satan, the Devil, the Evil One and The Dragon (The Book of Revelations 12: 2; 20:2).
The Obamas and Clintons employ Alinksy’s habitual lying technique: Keep the enemy confused and on its heels working to keep up with your lies. Lies also often become truths if repeated incessantly. For example, the lies about Zuckerberg and Facebook in The Social Network movie are accepted as the truth by many.
In the movie and in sworn testimony, Zuckerberg claimed to have invented Facebook in a few weeks, while preparing for finals at Harvard, and drinking. Contrast that with the 145,000 person-hours and over $10 million spent by Leader Technologies. Zuckerberg's assertion is totally illogical, yet it persists.

Saul Alinsky's 12-Step Community Organizing Program:
- Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have.
- Never go outside the expertise of your people.
- Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy.
- Make the enemy live by its own book of rules.
- Ridicule is man's most potent weapon.
- A good tactic is one your people enjoy.
- A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.
- Keep the pressure on. Never let up.
- The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.
- If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.
- The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative by the enemy.
- Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it and polarize it.
Fig. 7—Saul D. Alinsky's 12 Rules for Radicals (1971).
Obama’s and Hillary’s lies are legion. Their whoppers include: (1) Obama’s oft-repeated promise "If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor," (2) Obama’s claim to be a Christian to fool voters, (3) Hillary’s fabrication that a video caused the attack on the U. S. Embassy in Benghazi, and (4) Hillary’s ever-changing private email stories which are being investigated by the FBI, with new evidence proving she exposed the highest classifications of intelligence.
They have also brazenly ignored and violated laws. They encourage others to violate U.S. laws themselves, and not respect traditional authority—our borders, the U.S. Constitution and the people responsible for carrying out our laws, such as our police and military personnel. The Justice Department's U.S. Attorneys have become little more than mobsters themselves—A fish rots from the head down.
The Deep State’s corrupt tactics in Leader v. Facebook were purposely confusing in order to discourage the public from learning the truth
The following timeline is complex. That is an Alinsky tactic: Put so many layers of lies on the onion that most people won’t take the time to peel them away.
Americans for Innovation has been peeling away the layers of this Leader v. Facebook judicial corruption onion for years. The Deep State’s onion core is now exposed. Names, places, dates, crimes and motives have been uncovered thanks to the dedicated work of many.
Soros’ New World Order wants to force its will on America and the planet. In their morality, you would be reduced to merely a consuming animal—"a useful idiot" (Alinsky). In their world, faith, hope and love are the antiquated values of weak people. They also have little need for any constitution, law or regulation that stands in their way.
* Alinsky used the phrase "a useful idiot" is sometimes attributed to Vladimir Lenin, although this is in question.
Lure users, young and old, into
"The Cloud," then ambush them
Theft of Leader Technologies’ invention of social networking was critical to the Deep State’s plan. With control of the digital essences of our lives ("The Internet of Things" aka "The Cloud"), the Deep State could achieve their new world order more quickly.
Which side are you on?
The moral, philosophical and cultural battle lines are drawn. If we choose the globalist Cartel, the "nanny state" of entitlements will eventually overtake us like it collapsed the Soviet Union. On the other hand, if we choose the timeless values of the U.S. Constitution, we must protect and restore Leader Technologies’ property rights. Then, we empower real, ethical innovators to rebuild our digital networks in a way that takes us to higher ground.
In our increasingly global economy, the U.S. has a major advantage—our inventiveness and entrepreneurial spirit. But we are allowing our advantage to evaporate. If someone had backed up a truck to the "back door" of the U.S. and stolen trillions of dollars worth of property, we would be Carteloutraged and more protective in the future. This is exactly what has happened over the past few years—yet there is no defensive uproar. We cannot allow this thievery to continue.
This restoration of Leader Technologies’ (and others) property rights will expose the decades of corruption that has resulted in this digital takeover. Whether these criminals go to jail, are pardoned or ignored, one thing is for sure-- they must be defunded and disempowered.
Is "the New World Order"
too big to fail?
Some ask if social networks are now "too big to fail." The last time Americans thought that was when our too-big-to-fail banks were bailed out in 2008. The taxpayer was stuck with the bill while the bankers continued to pay themselves bonuses. Not a single banker was jailed, fired or even fined. Is this the New World Order we have to look forward to? The answer is yes, unless WE THE PEOPLE put a stop to this profligacy.
These social networks can and will be reconfigured to provide the positive benefits without the abuses of security and privacy. However, they will not be run by the current crop of "public-private" criminals, who must be run out of town, this current President and his cabinet among them.
Read on.
A New World Order is coming. Were you invited to the networking party? (Didn't think so.)
Big Picture: A Deep State of judges, regulators, politicians and corporations have secretly signed on to "A New World Order" where government is "disaggregated" into self-defined networks. From that point on, their pledges of loyalty to the U.S. Constitution became optional.
In the dramatic up tick in White House polemics about Islam, it becomes important to note that unlike Christianity and Judaism where lying is a sin, Muslims are permitted to lie to Westerners, Jews and Christians. Qur'an 3:28.
Fig. 9—A New World Orderby Anne-Marie Slaughter. Princeton University Press (2004).
Barack Obama's hollow claims of Christian faith, and his embrace of Islam in the White House, would certainly explain why his administration lies without shame to achieve its Slaughter-esque disaggregation goals.
This disaggregation governance philosophy was introduced by Anne-Marie Slaughter to the U.S. State Department on Apr. 12, 2004. She was then a Princeton international law professor and had just published her book, A New World Order (Princeton University Press 2004). In 2009, she served as a chief political advisor to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (2009-2013).[276]
In evident excitement about the coming presidency of Barack Obama, Princeton re-published the book (never mind that the 2008 election was still two months away). Slaughter's ideas have provided a suitably academic rationale for the institutionalization of crony capitalism and the establishment of a permanent power class for those deemed worthy of an invitation to the networking party ("The Cartel" or "Deep State").
New world order, or just another justification for corruption and crony capitalism?
"The state is not disappearing, it's disaggregating, meaning it is simply operating through all its different branches, through regulatory agencies, through judges, through legislators, and they are all networking with one another."
—Anne-Marie Slaughter, U.S. Dept. of State speech introducing "A New World Order" Apr. 12, 2004.
The Deep State needed a global technology platform, so they stole Columbus, Ohio innovator Leader Technologies' invention of social networking. Leader's invention overcame inherent "scalability" problems the Deep State was having with legacy IBM, Microsoft and Xerox client-server platforms.
IBM pumped in a $40 million "donation" to The Eclipse Foundation. Leader's patent attorney, James P. Chandler, III (who was also counsel to IBM), secretly fed Leader's invention to Eclipse. Then a Who's Who of companies like SAP, Borland, Cisco, Intel, Oracle, Wind River, Nokia, HP and Microsoft signed up to get Leader's invention at a breathtaking rate.
Leader's invention enabled Eclipse members to unify their "disaggregation" networking efforts around the planet. In his hubris, Harvard Law professor James P. Chandler described his theft of his client's invention for the Deep State as "in the greater good."[The greater good of who?Chandler should pay with his life! D.C]
A world of interdependent, self-regulating international networks where the U.S. Constitution is in the way
Tellingly, Slaughter never mentions the U.S. Constitution as a guiding principle in her speech introducing A New World Order to the State Department on Apr. 12, 2004. Neither does she mention Leader Technologies on whom she and her cronies rely to pull off their heist.[285]

"Courts should not make policy or invent rights not stipulated or implied by statutes or the Constitution's text. But courts have no nobler function than that of actively defending property, contracts and other bulwarks of freedom against depredations by government, including by popularly elected, and popular, officials." —George F.

- 1.Investigators for Americans for Innovation were invited by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists ("ICIJ") to provide details about Leader Technologies, Inc.’s ("Leader") patent infringement dispute with Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook, Inc. (collectively "Facebook" and/or "Zuckerberg"). This document was prepared in response.
- 2.Leader is a software development company founded in 1997 by engineer-entrepreneur Michael T. McKibben ("McKibben"). McKibben had previously led the redevelopment of the AT&T Access Plus 3.0’s Microsoft Exchange-compatible Windows email system introduced concurrently with Windows 95 in close collaboration with AT&T Bell Labs.
- 3.From inception in 1997 to the present, Leader has developed computer software that has resulted in multiple patents, including U.S. Pat. No. 7,139,761, Dynamic Association of Electronically Stored Information with Iterative Workflow Changes, Nov. 21, 2006—the "secret sauce" technological innovation that is popularly called "social networking."[002]McKibben's other patents include U.S. Pat. No. 8,195,714 on Jun. 5, 2012, Context Instantiated Application Protocol (the patent on all mobile and desktop apps), Jun. 05, 2012[283] and U.S. Pat. No. 7,925,246, Radio/Telephony Interoperability System, Apr. 12, 2011.[284]
Petition for Writ of Certiorari, Leader Technologies, Inc., v. Facebook, Inc., No. 12-617 (U.S. Supreme Court 2012), filed Nov. 16, 2012.4.Leader sued Facebook on Nov. 19, 2008 for willful patent infringement, damages and injunction ("Leader v. Facebook"). A jury trial was held from Jul. 19-28, 2010 resulting in a split verdict.[003] Leader proved that Facebook infringes Leader’s patent on 11 of 11 claims and that there was no prior art. Facebook prevailed on an "on-sale bar" claim—a claim not asserted until Jun. 24, 2010, three weeks before trial.[004]Leader appealed the on-sale bar verdict to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit on May 04, 2011,[005] then, when the appeals court failed to apply its own well-settled Pfaff and Group One legal tests, Leader petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court on Nov. 16, 2012, but was denied a hearing on Jan. 7, 2013.[006]-
5.Both the Federal Circuit appeal and the U.S. Supreme Court petition were ruled in Facebook’s favor, despite the courts:(a) Knowledge of egregious denial of due process to Leader,[007](b) Multiple notices of the emergence of 28 previously concealed Zuckerberg computer hard drives and Harvard emails; Facebook’s attorney Gibson Dunn LLP[008] (who concealed them) was representing Facebook in the case;[009](c) Substantial financial conflicts of interest by the judges and government officials[010] involved in this case, e.g., holdings in Fidelity[011]Contrafund,[840] Vanguard[013] and T.

1947
- 6.On Sep. 18, 1947, under the provisions of the National Security Act of 1947 (61 Stat. 495), approved July 26, 1947, effective on September 18, 1947, the National Security Council (NSC) and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) were created. The 1947 Act charged the CIA with coordinating the nation's intelligence activities and correlating, evaluating, and disseminating intelligence which affected national security. In addition, the Agency was to perform other duties and functions related to intelligence as the NSC might direct. The Act defined the Director of Central Intelligence's (DCI) authority as head of the Intelligence Community, head of the CIA, and principal intelligence adviser to the President, and made him responsible for protecting intelligence sources and methods. The act also prohibited the CIA from engaging in law enforcement activity and restricted its internal security functions.The CIA carried out its responsibilities subject to various directives and controls by the President and the NSC.[829]
1952
- On Oct. 24, 1947, President Harry S. Truman issued a memorandum on communications intelligence (COMINT) that authorized the creation of the National Security Agency (NSA). The memorandum instructed the Special Committee to issue a directive to the Secretary of Defense which defines the COMINT mission of NSA as being to "provide an effective, unified organization and control of the communications intelligence activities of the United States conducted against foreign governments" (and not against American citizens).[830]
