The Dobbs Leak vs. The First Amendment

Boston did not merely reject a flag. It rejected Camp Constitution after years of treating its City Hall flagpole as an open public forum for outside groups.

By the time Hal Shurtleff applied, Boston had approved 284 consecutive flag raisings. No application had ever been denied. The City had allowed many viewpoints, causes, and national symbols to be displayed, including the flags of Communist China and Cuba.

Then Boston drew the line at Camp Constitution because its flag included a Christian cross. The Supreme Court held that Boston’s flag-raising program was not government speech, and that refusing Shurtleff’s request violated the Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment.

Only hours later, the leaked draft opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization exploded across the national news cycle.

One Supreme Court story dominated the headlines. The other virtually disappeared.

Quick timeline

• January 18, 2022: Oral arguments are heard before the Supreme Court in Shurtleff v. City of Boston.
• May 2, 2022: The Court issues a unanimous 9-0 decision affirming that Boston’s refusal violated the Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment.
• Only hours later: Politico publishes the leaked draft opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization.
• The Dobbs leak immediately dominates national media coverage and political debate.
• Public attention shifts almost entirely toward abortion and the coming Roe v. Wade battle.
• One Supreme Court story became front-page news. The other was largely forgotten.

Why it matters

Most Americans remember the Dobbs leak. Few remember that, on the very same day, the Supreme Court unanimously reaffirmed First Amendment protections against viewpoint discrimination.

Was this simply a coincidence of timing? Or did one Supreme Court story eclipse another?

The Butler Brief explores that question.

The Forgotten Attacks of 9/11/23

Most Americans think 9/11/23 means one thing: September 11, 2023.

But in Germany's day/month/year date format, 9/11/23 represents November 9, 1923 — the day Adolf Hitler attempted a violent overthrow of the German government in Munich.

One hundred years later, on September 11, 2023, the Biden Administration authorized the release of $6 billion in frozen Iranian funds.

Coincidence? Or another puzzle piece hidden in plain sight?

Quick timeline

• 9/11/23 (November 9, 1923) — Adolf Hitler attempts a violent overthrow of the German government. The failed uprising sends him to prison, where he writes Mein Kampf, the blueprint for the Nazi movement that follows.
• 9/11/38 (November 9, 1938) — Kristallnacht, “The Night of Broken Glass,” one of the most infamous anti-Jewish attacks in Nazi Germany.
• 9/11/23 (September 11, 2023) — The Biden Administration authorizes the release of $6 billion in previously frozen Iranian funds.
• October 7, 2023 — Hamas launches its massacre in Israel, an attack many consider to be Israel's 9/11, just twenty-six days later.

Why it matters

Most Americans remember October 7. Few remember what happened twenty-six days earlier.

Why was one of the most controversial foreign-policy decisions of the Biden presidency announced on 9/11/23?

Was the timing merely coincidental?

Or does the date take on new significance when you remember that 9/11/23 also marked the 100th anniversary of Hitler's failed coup?

The Butler Brief is a criminal complaint. Joe Biden and others are named as defendants in what the complaint presents as a crime against Israel.

DeNiro, 8645. Comey, 8647.

Most Americans have heard about James Comey’s “8647” seashell post.

A former FBI Director walks a beach, arranges seashells into a number, photographs the result, and publishes it to the world.

Most Americans also know what “86” means. Restaurants 86 menu items when they run out. Bartenders 86 disruptive customers when it is time for them to get out. The term means remove, eject, throw out, or get rid of.

The public debate focused on what 8647 meant. The Kohberger Dossier asks a different question: Why did James Comey choose May 15, 2025? And did he act alone?

Quick timeline

• May 15, 2025 — James Comey publishes his seashell post exactly 8,647 days after September 11, 2001.
• May 13, 2025 — Robert DeNiro delivers his vicious Cannes remarks, two days prior, exactly 8,645 days after September 11, 2001.
• 8645 / 8647 — The numbers differ. The targets do not. Trump AND America.

This is what has been missed, up to now: the method to their mathematical madness, and proof of collaboration.

James Comey
Date of incident: 5/15/2025
Location of incident: Instagram seashell post
8647 = OFF TRUMP
86 = OFF
47 = TRUMP, 47th President
5/15/2025 → 8,647 days since 9/11

Robert DeNiro
Date of incident: 5/13/2025
Location of incident: Cannes, France — Opening Ceremony, 78th Cannes Film Festival
honorary Palme d’Or speech
8645 = OFF TRUMP
86 = OFF
45 = TRUMP, 45th President
5/13/2025 → 8,645 days since 9/11

Why it matters

8647 was not merely a number in the sand. If 86 means remove, eject, or get rid of, then 8647 reads as a message directed at Trump, the 47th President. The Kohberger Dossier argues that the date matters too. May 15, 2025 was not just the day Comey posted 8647; it was exactly 8,647 days after September 11, 2001 — the single worst day in American history.

Two days earlier, Robert DeNiro stood at Cannes, France, 8,645 days after 9/11, accepting a lifetime-honorary Palme d’Or and using his speech to brand Trump a “philistine president” — in plain English, a cultural barbarian, a man so dangerous to art, ideas and democracy, that “saving the castle” means stopping Trump at all costs.

In that frame, DeNiro becomes the 8645 step. Comey becomes the 8647 step. 8645. 8647. Different numbers. Same target. The 45th president and the 47th president, Donald J. Trump.

Was Comey’s post an isolated act? Or was it part of a larger public sequence involving other high-profile figures — a run of 8645, 8646, 8647 tied to 9/11 and aimed at the same man?

The Kohberger Dossier does not shrug and call this a coincidence. It is a sworn criminal complaint that names James Comey and Robert De Niro as defendants in what appears to be a coordinated death threat against Donald J. Trump — and, by extension, against the country he was elected to lead. It lays out the dates, the numbers, the broadcasts, and then hands the file to prosecutors with one simple question: will you treat this as a crime, or as entertainment?

Americans do not have to wait quietly for that answer. They can read the complaint, learn the basics, and decide for themselves whether to demand action from the people sworn to protect them.

Two Women from Wilkes-Barre

Most Americans think they know the story of Mary Jo Kopechne.

A tragic accident. A car in the water. A young woman who died. A Kennedy scandal.

But what if that is not the story at all?

On July 18, 1969, twenty-eight-year-old Mary Jo Kopechne died on Chappaquiddick Island, a small island off Martha's Vineyard, south of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. The event became one of the most famous political scandals in American history and forever altered the legacy of Senator Ted Kennedy.

Most Americans have heard her name.

Few have heard the name Joan Marie Dymond.

Twenty-three days earlier, on June 25, 1969, fourteen-year-old Joan Marie Dymond was kidnapped from the Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania area. Her remains were later discovered, and her case remains open as a kidnapping and murder investigation.

One victim became national news.

The other was largely forgotten.

Yet both young women came from the same region of northeastern Pennsylvania. Mary Jo Kopechne was raised in the Wilkes-Barre area. Joan Marie Dymond lived nearby. Just to the north sat Scranton, Pennsylvania — the hometown of Joe Biden, who would later become known nationally as "Scranton Joe."

Three neighbors.

Two victims.

Twenty-three days apart.

Quick timeline

• June 25, 1969 — Joan Marie Dymond is kidnapped from the Wilkes-Barre area.
• July 18, 1969 — Mary Jo Kopechne dies at Chappaquiddick.
• 23 days apart — Two young women. Same region. One became national history. The other was nearly forgotten.

Why it matters

History remembers Chappaquiddick as a tragic accident.

The Butler Brief argues something very different.

What if Mary Jo Kopechne was the victim of a premeditated murder?

What if Joan Marie Dymond was the first victim?

And what if the two cases, separated by twenty-three days and linked to the same Pennsylvania region, were part of a single story that has remained hidden for more than half a century?

The Butler Brief explores that question.
