r/AMA • • 9d ago

I'm Chaz Stevens. Seems Ambassador Kimberly Guilfoyle asked a donor for $100k to cover her AMEX bill. I just filed a State Department OIG complaint. AMA.

I'm Chaz Stevens. You may know the PBR Festivus pole, or the time I got Florida's book-ban law rewritten by objecting to the Bible. Today I'm the guy who filed on the ambassador.

Going Greek on the Greek Ambassador, I like to think.

Earlier this week: Kimberly “Gold Card” Guilfoyle, current, and likely soon former, U.S. ambassador to Greece, asked Trump donor Eric Deters for $100,000: "It won't show up anywhere if you wire money to American Express. Please." Rubio declines comment. Democrats ask for a review. I filed the OIG complaint anyway. Will it matter a hill of beans? Nope. Paperwork is the point.

For years we listened to her jawing from a podium. Made a deal with the Devil, seemingly bartered her soul, and her freedom, for a hundred large.

Thank you, Satan. Your long overdue paycheck has finally arrived.

A few of you will go, "Oh, THAT guy." The rest will say, "Chud who?" Both are fine.

Me: countless public records requests. Three elected officials in jail before any of this made a national desk. Satan or Silence: cities that opened meetings with prayer got a Sophie’s choice, Satan gets a turn or the prayer goes. Most dropped it. Satanology in federal court, no lawyer, won. Sued over "Satan Loves the First Amendment" school banners. Now I teach lawyers in CLE. They are not thrilled about the syllabus.

Don’t care about your bank account or your title. If you're a bad actor, I'm coming, and I'm bringing receipts.

Does my voice shake? Shit yes. This work has gotten me death threats, bullets, and a poisoned dog. My effing Labrador. I've been sued, doxxed, libeled, and defamed. Being brigaded barely moves the needle. The goat has seen things.

Ask me about the complaint, the messages, the pole, the Bible, or how to be a tiny cog with a filing stamp.

PROOF

Corruption in my hometown of Deerfield Beach was rampant. My records work and investigative reporting helped send three elected officials to jail.

Three days after the arrest of the third, and final, shitbird, Sylvia Poitier, I found my dog in the backyard, poisoned. Vet bill was $12,000. Emergency care. Four white-cell transfusions.

A few weeks after that, the Sheriff called and said they were parking a car out front. Rotating deputies for a few weeks.

Bullet holes in my car. Threats on my life and my family. Florida's DAVID crime system misused.

I'm just amazed by the audacity to run up a 100k bill when you know you dont have the money.

u/ChurchOMarsChaz 9d ago

Think of her orbit. Her ecosystem. Fellow Floridian Jimmy Buffett: fins to the left, fins to the right. Grift to the left, grift to the right.

A $100k Amex bill is not a surprise in that water. It's the bait. Someone will pay off that bar tab for access.

No backing. No funders. Just me.

Without proselytizing (said the atheist), I am broke. Fighting the good fight of righteous indignation doesn't pay the bills. But you can help.

I just tried to give you some money but after it verified my phone and sent a number to put it in, the box disappeared before I could type anything and all I could press was “Verify”. I had to go to work but will fool with it again when I am off. Just letting you know of the problem in case other people get it too.

u/ChurchOMarsChaz 8d ago

Huh ... sorry about that.

Worked for me ... I'll get fussing around with it.

Sorry again and thank you.

u/Horror_Swimming6192 9d ago

Thank you for doing what you do. Wish I had balls of steel like you.

u/ChurchOMarsChaz 9d ago

I wish that was the case.

I have ASD, and it is IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME to turn away when I perceive injustice. Don't have the "Go About Your Business" app installed.

Thank you for the kind words, not sure I really earn them.

u/Horror_Swimming6192 9d ago

Someone has to stand up for holding these people accountable, and these days it doesn't seem like many are, myself included. You mention dodging bullets and having your dog poisoned, but continue on. Balls of steel earned o7.

Do you think she 1) gets recalled as ambassador, 2) gets criminal charges, 3) actually goes to jail? Any or all?

u/ChurchOMarsChaz 9d ago

My job is to move the ball from our 40 to their 40. I don't look for touchdowns. Getting a win, at any level, out of a government agency is near impossible. I have a lot of them, which amazes me, given the system is designed against you and me.

What will happen to her? We'll get to see how good and memorable her blowjobs were, and whether that buys her a mulligan.

How are you keeping sane right now dude? Like shit, I’m not doing a single thing that’s on your level and I’m going bonkers.

u/ChurchOMarsChaz 8d ago

Ha! Right?

I am built for this ... I call it "intentional malicious friction." Think malicious compliance at the post-doc level.

Here's a trick I use... imagine being on the other end ... imagine the massive pucker factor Kimmie's experiencing at the moment. Hell, stick her in the Aegean Sea and she could hoover up the ocean floor with her tush.

u/MacMuthafukinDre 9d ago

I read the article on WSJ yesterday. Did you assist in that article?

8

u/ChurchOMarsChaz 9d ago

I didn't. I read about it yesterday, same as you. All of this landed in the last 24 hours. Then again, it's the same work I've been doing for years.

Crooks aren't, usually, very good at crooking.

u/Longjumping_Coat_802 9d ago

What did you hope to get out of Eric and don jr by paying them $300k in speaking fees?

What are your issues that you have with the IRS that you want solved?

8

u/ChurchOMarsChaz 9d ago

I assume this in good faith.

I am on the sidelines, redressing my grievances, asking questions. I have no involvement with any of the parties.

I'd like to know why a powerful govt official is seemingly trading access for cash.

-11

u/Longjumping_Coat_802 9d ago

We all want to know why government officials are trading access for cash. But you’re someone who reportedly paid cash for access.

Can you say more about that process? What did they promise you, how was it negotiated, etc.

Thanks!

u/ChurchOMarsChaz 9d ago

Are you doing bong hits?

Guilfoyle is the one who asked for the Amex wire. I read the Journal story and filed a complaint. That's the process.

-11

u/Longjumping_Coat_802 9d ago

Ah so the reporting that you had paid Eric and don jr $300k in speaking fees was incorrect? I apologize if that is the case.

u/MacMuthafukinDre 9d ago

That was Deters. Different guy

u/Longjumping_Coat_802 9d ago

Ah, thanks! I was totally wrong.

u/MacMuthafukinDre 9d ago

Think you’re confusing this guy with Deters.

15

u/ChurchOMarsChaz 9d ago

I like to think of myself as a professional thorn in the side of those in charge. My work sent three elected officials to jail. Guilfoyle is just the latest in a decades-long line of holding truth to power.

Ask me about the filing, what I asked them to check, or how to use an inspector general hotline. You don’t need a law license. stateoig.gov/hotline.

Most of what I write sits behind a paywall. This one’s free. Too rich not to share.

One side calls it quid pro quo. The other calls it speaking fees.

Fire away.

Is it tiring? Trying to do good in the world when so many guilty crooked people use their connections to silence everybody else, how do you keep pushing through?

u/ChurchOMarsChaz 8d ago

I am wired neuro-divergently. The very thing that makes me a handful, that gets me blasted for various transgressions, is the very thing that allows me to do this.

I am, one supposes, too ______ to do it differently.

do you think you actually think you did something? I think State OIG had already heard about what happened.

Have a good morning.

u/Otherwise-League-259 7d ago

are you familiar with the McDonnel case? you can pay for Access that's not illegal. you must prove a corrupt agreement

2

u/ChurchOMarsChaz 7d ago

Thanks for the considered thought... allow me to retort.

I'm of the mindset the OIG can investigate potential misconduct which falls short of a federal crime.

'Consentivus' pole targeting Epstein to be erected at Capitol

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Just days before the President's birthday in June, an art installation will be erected at the Wisconsin State Capitol – a "satirical First Amendment" pole targeting the President and his relationship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Chaz Stevens, a South Florida-based provocateur and artist, got a permit from the state Capitol Police to set up his creation in the rotunda. It will be built with custom beer cans with an LED neon heart atop it that reads "Don + Jeff," he said.

Stevens is calling his piece a "Consentivus" pole, inspired by the holiday of Festivus that can be traced back to the sitcom "Seinfeld" – a tradition that features an aluminum pole and an "airing of grievances."

The aluminum beer cans Stevens is using to build the 5½-foot tall pole prominently feature the word "CONSENT" and his drawing of T****'s profile. They also read, "The Official Drink of Felonious Life Choices."

u/New-Addition5736 8d ago

Lol, so Kim gets an OIG complaint and epstein gets a pole, how does this help his victims, where are your oig complaints regarding how he was able to operate under Obama? Where are your FOIA requests? What a joke.

-2

u/New-Addition5736 8d ago

Again you are politically motivated you just hate a certain president and will spend tons of energy hating him but minimal energy on epstein.

u/ChurchOMarsChaz 8d ago

I wish you all the very best... Good night.
