Amen to that.

Your Jan 6 call lacks understanding of what really happened. Just ask the rabble-rouser Ray Epps why he is not in jail?

Higher calling? You think when something stinks to high hell, you are not going to react?

The Lieutenant, Blind Squirrel, Baltia Whale, world-renowned expert.

Who is that?

[LongTimeObserver]

Baltia Whale, world's foremost expert; airlines, epidemiology, trading.

He is throwing himself a pity party of late. While insisting on errors made by the court and proclaiming he is financially ruined his profile stated they are somewhat grateful for the opportunity to retire this early in life. He claims the pandemic is fake but backpedals from that statement in true trumpian fashion by saying he means it is over amplified as to its risk(s). I do hope the court goes hard on him and it might then provide a greater incentive to try it again. Now they are teaming up with other stock pumpers to attack those who do not buy into his self pity act.

[LongTimeObserver]

The US legal system is not the end of any story. Let alone a Baltia story.

[Mithrandir67]

As I said, it's a shame for the US legal system!

[mysterymeat]

Sentencing is scheduled for 4/29/22. After all this time, they have accepted a guilty plea for not paying FICA taxes for 2 quarters, that all.

"Defendant withdraws previous plea of not guilty and enter a plea of GUILTY to Counts 4 and 8 of the Superseding Indictment. The defendant explains the offense committed, the Government offers the proof they would present to the Court during trial. The Court finds a a factual basis for the plea and accepts it." On or about and between April 1,2012 and July 31, 2013, both dates being approximate and inclusive, within the Eastern District of New York and elsewhere, the defendant JOHN DRAGO, together with others, being the owner and operator of the Kayla Companies, and thereby being required to collect, truthfully account for and pay over FICA taxes to the IRS, did knowingly and intentionally fail to collect, truthfully account for and pay over FICA taxes to the IRS as set forth below:

Count 4 is for the second quarter of 2012 and count 8 is for the second quarter of 2013.

Those books won't make much of an allocution.

If anything, such expressions will embolden the judge.

[Mithrandir67]

He has for sure every reason to sue these guys!

ask kayakzz questions pertaining to prcessing of charges.

[Mithrandir67]

It would be a shame for any legal system if such suckers could just walk away taking care of their next fraudulent enterprise.

[Tiresias]

The SEC has limited resources available to them. Why pursue Drago now Baltia has been delisted? They may be aware of his upcoming sentencing but again, what would be gained by pursuing him? I could see the DOJ trying to join the dots between as Drago stated, the more than $200Million he put through his check cashing businesses some of which may have been checks from those who may have sold Baltia shares, (and the $9 Million referenced in his case by the DOJ in question was, in his own words, a drop in the bucket) would be no point to launching an investigation and his sentencing for his misdeeds, however much he likes to say he is a victim and not a convicted criminal. The SEC may flag those individuals should they begin to show up as executives of other publicly traded companies, even if they show up on the over the counter market. Of course those sociapaths who commit crimes and refuse to acknowledge the role they played in their own demise are the same ones who gather followers and who profess they are god fearing people, who never would lie, cheat or steal, and when they are caught at it use a political slant to show it is the country, and not their actions that are the true criminals. Some, like Drago will promote and follow people who show disdain for process and whose self-serving political agendas (like a former president) overrules ethics, morals, and accountability. I watched your evolution as a Baltia shareholder from being up 102% on the Baltia share purchases to a disgruntled it is all a scam victim, which of course is common, especilly with OTC stocks of the lower tiers. Hopefully Drago gets to sit in a cell for years contemplating how to get his two books published (the ones he feels are a must read) and who knows, maybe a line or two about Baltia and how he was just a common shareholder, nothing more, and a common shareholder who hosted a party, had access to informaton most others did not and was just this guy, ya know.

[Mithrandir67]

Why isn't this criminal asshole still not behind bars yet?
What's wrong with legislation in the US???

[LongTimeObserver]

No $BLTA and non-$BLTA writings have gone un-noted/un-observed.

[Tiresias]

Interesting isn't it. I have kept his posts, posting numbers, especially his attacks on the judicial system and motivation for their persecution of him and will forward to the presiding judge for consideration during the sentencing phase. He has a large ego and is currently doing his walks on water routine on the AXIM board where he publicly declared he is buying those shares then states he does not own one share due to his accounts being closed and liquidated but is now managing a trust account. He is practising writing his books no one will care about as his posts dwarf most. He definitely suffers from the Messiah complex and was even trying to raise funds on GoFundMe to pay for the last supper.

[LongTimeObserver]

What up when $BLTA whale deletes his own reply?

[Tiresias]

I guess your word is no good. You stated you no longer would post here but yet, here you are again spreading spam about your latest venture.

[LongTimeObserver]

Questions? Ask Tony Baloney, Bowling Barry, Sheryle Milligan, GBH Auditors, The Lamp, and any of the cast of characters at the Atlantic FBO fraud. Oh, the 'dead' guy, too. Ask him, in Riga.

Speaking of which, who pulled down the incriminating video?

Did Log Air ever get their plain vanilla JT9D-7A engines back?

Did Kalitta take 706's hull to the crusher to satisfy its mechanic's liens?

Nice party, huh?

Keeping the Baltia grift alive!

"Baltia's one-time largest single investor, John Drago..."

[Devolution]

Baltia"s one-time single largest investor, John Drago, now considered a disgraced public figure as he is currently under review by the USA DOJ and faces up to 10 years imprisonment in matters unrelated to his interests in Baltia Airlines, now entertaining review of another high risk/potentially high reward venture, AXIM Biotechnologies:

See what is going on at:

[Tiresias]

Remember BLM (Baltia Lies Matter)

He is intent on cultivating a following for himself it seems on the AXIM board, hyping his ideas for books outlining his struggles against the federal government. He conveniently does not mention his conduct, the compiling of dossiers on federal government employee's and the like, and stalking him-and now invoking the Republican ideology and calling himself a patriot. The guy has an ego bigger than most. Criminal as victim. Sure John, sure. I still find it interesting how just an investor can host a party for the big wigs, have access to information no one else had, and the like. Supposedly and this is confusing, he states he is buying AXIM stock but then states he does not own any shares. The leopard is growing more spots.

[LongTimeObserver]

Balta and the Lieutenant Blind Squirrel. Still at it.

Is Tony Baloney involved too? The Lamp? Bowling Barry Clare?

[Tiresias]

He is now hyping AXIM

[LongTimeObserver]

Lieutenant Blind Squirrel reporting for Baltia duty!

[Tiresias]

Please elaborate.

[kayakzz]

BTW, LT, the reason I know how the Baltia kickback scam worked is because Tony brought his side squeeze into the inner circle. I know you know what I am referring to.

[Tiresias]

Did he not make veiled threats towards some government employees? Right, acting morally correct. Love the photo showing the beard stubble and slicked back hair, looked like a true pizzaria owner in Brooklyn. He's just some guy, ya know! Too much John LaCarre in collecting dossiers and the veiled hints at threats-"I knows where youse guys live." Good riddance for a few years or more hopefully. He acted in the same manner here in suppressing dialogue which as it turned out, we the naysayers were correct. Nasty fathers indeed.

[kayakzz]

Using PN as your bulldog....he harassed a lot of people trying to get me fired

[kayakzz]

He would have easily gotten probation...but that was before the dossiers and other games he played with the court. He is going to pull a few years, my guess is that he will be classified higher than low security.

[Tiresias]

Strong sense of Trump entitlement. Was he wearing horns?

[kayakzz]

Have no fear, he is going to get hammered at his sentencing. Rightly or wrongly, it won't be so much for the crimes committed, but for his behavior towards the court. Karma can be a bit hard.

[Tiresias]

Yes current issues have much to do with Baltia. Character flaws (massive ego, done nothing wrong belief-see Sociopathic Tendencies) at play with business have their roots, or vice versa, in conduct here. From a "just a simple investor you know" act to hosting a pool party, disclosing information that only could have come from company insiders, to smug tendencies pretending to be a man of ethics when in fact the opposite is true. Sociopaths believe only they are right, and like many on January 6, believe they have a higher calling, and cause, that allows them to think they are somehow above the law. Not my concern what how much time is spent or not spent behind bars (although tendencies early on may give a judge pause) but the bottom line is tendencies became known and the veneer has been stripped away showing the rotted wood underneath.

[kayakzz]

Good luck at your sentencing hearing....I have a pretty good idea what the outcome is likely to be....

[mysterymeat]

No, he won't. His current legal issues have nothing to do with Baltia, go read the complaint/charges. As a first offender of a white collar, at best he'll get a fine and some time at a minimum security prison. Don't be surprised if all he gets is a fine and probation.

[mysterymeat]

No, you are a Stuckholder for life.

[Tiresias]

Thanks for offering, but I'm not looking for an apology from you or anyone else.

I just don't want to see anyone wasting their time and clinging to false hopes.

It is a shame that there are those who continue to mislead others by writing things they know are fake news (sure Trump fan lol)

There is nothing going on right now, in my situation or anywhere else in the world, that is working on restoring Baltia Airlines or obtaining any kind of retribution against any of those who were once working to make it a reality.

BLTA was delisted over 3 years ago.

Water under the bridge.

It is time to move on. (then move on will ya to that nice little cell)

[Tiresias]

why apologize? You only lie anyway. We don't care if you post or not.

[Tiresias]

The first step in healing is to accept responsibility for misdeeds, something not yet owned up to. Not accepting fault is atypical behavior. The lies and falsehoods spread about Baltia, dropping hints along the way, luring in the trusting and unsuspecting. Those behind this fraud are not to be forgiven. I never lost a penny on this stock since I never owned it but I was approached by Barry via phone to purchase stock, part of his boiler room activity. There are many not innocent in any of this and words, threats and actions here on the Baltia board speak to the lack of decency, trustworthiness and honesty. Be gone. Apologies from those who abetted this scheme are not accepted. Talk to those who lost money and those who lost a great deal of money. They are the ones lacking an apology and one not forthcoming I suspect.

[LongTimeObserver]

Statute of Limitations on fraud runs how long?

Seems it has just been refreshed, anyway.

Baltia 'USGlobal' $BLTA

[Devolution]

My apologies to all, but I won't be posting on this board any longer.

All of my BLTA shares are currently not in a brokerage account but are being held by the Transfer Agent, awaiting the day that I will HOPEFULLY need to write them off in order to offset gains.

Although I know the progress in my legal matters is being closely monitored and discussed both here and by others, I don't truly believe that after all this time, and especially with the impact of COVID, that Baltia has any chance of revival.

I only checked back here when someone told me they googled my name and saw that it was being used quite liberally on the Baltia Airlines Board.

I just wanted to set matters straight: My personal legal issues do not have anything to do with the airline. Unfortunately, politics no longer support the Check Cashing Industry (Google "Operation Choke Point") and it is much easier for the executive branch to find a loop hole to destroy a man's family business than it is for the legislative branch to pass laws to put an entire industry out of business.

It took nearly 10 years, but now that the government finally found its loophole (the way check cashers handle post-dated checks), it appears based on stories I am hearing from those still in the industry, that the loophole found in my case is now being applied to the rest of the industry. The government truly wants a "cashless" society, and I am guessing that in 3 to 5 years, the check cashing industry and cash will be a thing of the past.

Check Cashing does not go well with the government's desire to monitor anyone's bank account without the need to obtain a subpoena or a warrant! I invite you to reference a little known clause in the "Build Back Better Plan" whereby the government would be allowed immediate and unrestricted access to ANY bank account that has a transaction of $600 or more, and check cashing stores would not fall under this proposed new law since check cashers don't accept deposit).

Best of luck to everyone in all of your future endeavors.

I honestly believe that the airline is a done deal. Any thoughts that the personal issues I am dealing with will drag Baltia Management into any kind of an investigation are completely absurd. The delay in finalizing my case - 10 years comes February 2022 - has nothing to do with "ratting" on anyone, certainly not anyone associated with Baltia Airlines in any way. When the Federal Government has an agenda, the Ends justify whatever Means are necessary to accomplish their goals, even denying an individual their 4th Amendment Right to protection from illegal Search and Seizure (Cross reference what the Federal Government recently did to James O'Keefe of Veritas). The delay in my case has nothing at all to do with anyone being "ratted" on, and when my case comes to a close, don't expect to see indictments for "Tony Baloney, et al. The reason my case dragged on for 10 years is that the government doesn't give up, and they took so long to find a technicality that they could use to bring me down.

Truly, Godspeed to all in wherever this life may lead you.

[Lostintheflood]

Great to have you back. Any chance delta would reconsider the $500 million offer you posted about.

[Tiresias]

agreed!

[LongTimeObserver]

Reputational enhancement? Good luck. Pay up for Baltia. Likewise the ‘buying group’, if they ever existed.

[Tiresias]

It appears some would like to paint over Lucifer in this Baltia picture and cast them as a saint.

[LongTimeObserver]

Really? Who was Baltia’s biggest, longest, insider tout?

[Tiresias]

Interesting how someone goes from just an investor to be in possession of information, that would fall under the definition of "material change" as per below. From 2011 so obviously some big fish were beginning to hype the stock.

Wednesday, 10/26/11 02:47:15 PM

Wish I could nail BC down on that one, but it all revolves around the FAA approval. That could be as early as just around Thanksgiving. Then there are two months of training...not the pilots (they have 8 lined up, seems there are like 600 pilots out of work), but rather the "cabin crew". And rest assured they have applications in and selections made....just waiting for the green light from the FAA.

Also, you need the approval from the FAA before you are allowed to advertise, and as common sense dictates to all of us....... the advertising is all designed and ready to go once the green light is given.

So even back then some were entrenched in the loop of giving information no other common investor had access to. And that pool party. In my experience character flaws are exhibited in more than one area. If someone is attempting to garner sympathy where none should be expected then one reasonably could expect pushback. You are right, it is over for BLTA, and has been since day one. It's like having a nasty papa who expects a deathbed forgiveness after years of abusing others. I had my bags packed but never did get that 4 am wakeup call to be escorted to prison despite being told to expect it, only because I saw through the lies and warned others not to invest. But that is okay, that comes with being a good guy.

[IpiIpi]

Baltia never had a chance (funded or not). The reason that I saw was there was no management with any real aviation experience. This mess had nothing to do with the LT. I agree with him; two separate issues.

[LongTimeObserver]

Thanks. Is NYS now the second or largest holder?
