Donald Watkins: The Southern Company, Alabama Power, Georgia Power, and Mississippi Power operate monopolies within their markets. - Nearly every politician with an ounce of influence has sold-out to these big power companies.

 https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid0iJxoDYvMEQUDE3msyUeVu1fobZqhspi9a1Jhx2jXqUSJ7B7zEnkBaGykzXudovKMl&id=1297783899  —  Donald Watkins: The Southern Company, Alabama Power, Georgia Power, and Mississippi Power operate monopolies within their markets.  If we do not pay our electric bills, they will cut the power to our homes.  They take our money and buy off local, state, and federal politicians in order to increase our power bills.  The taxpayers of Alabama Power actually guarantee Alabama Power a 5% annual rate of return on their shareholders' investment.  The business arrangement between Alabama Power and the state's taxpayers is nothing but socialism.  It's all a racket.  Nearly every politician with an ounce of influence has sold-out to these big power companies.  State and federal prosecutors are afraid to stop their crime sprees.  This is why power company customers get raped, over and over again.  In Washington, big money talks -- loud.  Just ask Wells Fargo Bank how it avoided a criminal prosecution for its acknowledged crime spree of 230 major offenses since 2000.  The weakest federal prosecutors in America work for Joe Biden and Merrick Garland.  What is more, a state attorney general would rather pee in his/her pants than prosecute a power company. Wall Street criminals have nothing to fear in this state of being.

Donald Watkins: Did Deloitte & Touche fail to detect an ongoing racketeering enterprise and a companion accounting fraud scheme in its annual audits of the Southern Company just like Ernst & Young missed it with HealthSouth?

 https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid0s8HLKwXtTMQ49gJQjWWj4pwFoHjeRHhcXroawQNRhkVRNbJceXdAcc8LhjM3AvSal&id=1297783899 - Donald Watkins: Does the Southern Company need to amend and restate the revenues in its previously filed 10-Qs and 10-Ks for 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021?  Did the Southern Company fully comply with its Sarbanes-Oxley requirements for those years?  Does Joe Biden's Department of Justice care about the financial accuracy of the Southern Company's 10-Q and 10-K filings for those years, or is the company's compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley a matter that is beyond the Department's expertise and resources?  Did Deloitte & Touche fail to detect an ongoing racketeering enterprise and a companion accounting fraud scheme in its annual audits of the Southern Company just like Ernst & Young missed it with HealthSouth?  We will bring you the answers to these burning questions in a series of upcoming articles.

My phone has been ringing off the hook since this article was published. - Donald Watkins -

 https://www.facebook.com/1297783899/posts/pfbid02nxjb8eUYW1KXdfwKDPSPAcjVQqT7wRGyESX1p9z27SNRPsBFFqZccfsUqDsAr9Gl/  — My phone has been ringing off the hook since this article was published.  My experience with representing former HealthSouth CEO Richard Scrushy from 2003 to 2005 prepared me on what to look for in these sophisticated corporate fraud and racketeering cases.  This case is way over the heads of Joe Biden and Attorney General Merrick Garland.  Personally, I don't know of a federal prosecutor in America who has the "balls" to prosecute the Southern Company, Alabama Power Company, and/or Georgia Power Company, regardless of the extent of their participations in the racketeering enterprise.  It was clear from Thursday's earnings call that the Southern Company is going to make former Alabama Power CEO Mark Crosswhite the "ringleader" and "fall guy" in their interstate, multi-affiliate racketeering enterprise.  As the "ringleader," Crosswhite will likely get a life sentence if he is convicted.  Matrix and Joe Perkins have "dirt" on every participant in the scheme.  They are in the best position to bargain with investigators and "snitch" on higher ups.  My job is to promote transparency in this matter and to minimize the loss of shareholder value, to the extent possible.  House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan may be the best watchdog to make sure this hot, stinky mess is not swept under the rug by Merrick Garland and his cronies at DOJ in exchange for campaign assistance to Joe Biden in the 2024 presidential election. - Donald Watkins
