Biography

I am a journalist who founded Inner City Press, and has covered The Bronx, the Federal Reserve, Wall Street scams, the International Monetary Fund and, since 2005, the United Nations.

In 2018 as I pursued UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres' silence and conflict of interest on the slaughter in Cameroon and the new CEFC / Sam Kutesa UN bribery scandal, UN Security physically ousted me on June 22 and July 3 and imposed a ban on me entering the UN.
