Dinesh Joseph D'Souza <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinesh_D'Souza>, 52, is
a well-known conservative author and Christian apologetic, affiliated with
a number of conservative organizations and publications, including
the American Enterprise Institute, the Heritage Foundation, the Hoover
Institution, and *Policy Review*. He also served as a policy advisor to
President Ronald Reagan and, from 2010-2012, as president of The King's
College, a small Christian school in New York City.

America]<http://fellowshipofminds.files.wordpress.com/2014/01/2016-obamas-america.jpg>
In the 2012 presidential campaign year, D'Souza released *2016: Obama's
America <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016:_Obama%27s_America>*, a movie
based on his 2010 book *The Roots of Obama's Rage*, both of which posit
that Barack Obama's attitude toward America derives from his father's
anti-colonialism and from a psychological desire to fulfill his father's
dream of diminishing the power of Western imperial states. The documentary
was a surprise hit and has the distinction of being the highest grossing
conservative political film produced in the United States.
Now it's Pres. Lucifer's payback time.
Paul Bond reports for *The Hollywood
Reporter*<http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/2016-obamas-america-filmmaker-indicted-673670>,
Jan. 23, 2014, that *D'Souza will be arrested in New York today for
allegedly violating campaign-finance laws by giving "too much money" to a
candidate who sought to replace former New York Sen. Hillary Clinton.*
Federal authorities accuse D'Souza of donating more than is legal to the
campaign of *Wendy Long*, who ran in 2012 for the U.S. Senate seat vacated
by Hillary Clinton but lost to now-Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand. Long, however,
is not mentioned in an indictment obtained by *THR* on Thursday.
Insiders say D'Souza has been friends with Long since they attended
Dartmouth College together in the early 1980s. According to the indictment,
D'Souza donated $20,000 to Long's campaign by aggregating the money from
various people and falsely reporting the source of the funds.
But *Gerald Molen*, a co-producer of *2016 *who won a best picture Oscar
for *Schindler's List,* says the charge is politically motivated. He tells
*THR*, "In America, we have a long tradition of not doing what is commonly
done in too many other countries -- criminalizing dissent through the
selective enforcement of the law." Molen says D'Souza is being singled out
for "an alleged minor violation" in the same way the IRS reportedly
targeted conservative Tea Party groups for retribution. "In light of the
recent events and the way the IRS has been used to stifle dissent, this
arrest should send shivers down the spines of all freedom-loving Americans.
When American citizens begin to suspect that people are being arrested for
alleged minor violations because of their vocal dissent against their
elected representatives or rulers, it breeds disrespect and contempt for
the law and suspicion of those officials."
D'Souza's attorney *Benjamin Brafman* tells *THR *that his client "did not
act with any corrupt or criminal intent whatsoever ... at worst this was an
act of misguided friendship by D'Souza."
D'Souza first learned he was being investigated in the middle of 2013,
several months after *2016* had earned $33 million at the box office and
become the second-most-popular political documentary in U.S. history. D'Souza
was in San Diego working on his next film and book, each to be called
*America*, when he was informed he was about to be indicted and that he
should fly to New York and turn himself in to authorities.
*D'Souza's upcoming film America is due in theaters July 4* and is
co-produced by Molen and Gray Frederickson, who won a best picture Oscar
for *The Godfather Part II*. D'Souza wrote and stars in the film, which is
directed by John Sullivan.
The filmmakers emailed a statement to *THR* vowing to release the film on
schedule: "We believe this is an unfortunate misunderstanding arising out
of Dinesh D'Souza's desire to help the uphill campaign of a friend. There
was no intent to do anything illegal or corrupt in any way. This will have
no impact on the film *America*, which will be released on the Fourth of
July this year as previously announced. Filming is on schedule and D'Souza
will continue to lead the enterprise."
Molen added, "If this unfortunate action against Dinesh is intended to
deter the release of his upcoming film, *America*, that effort will fail."
Sources say D'Souza has been cooperating with authorities. He will
surrender Friday for processing and be arraigned in the Southern District
of New York.
But Pres. Lucifer isn't just going after Dinesh D'Souza.
*The New York
Post*<http://nypost.com/2014/01/24/irs-targets-conservative-hollywood-group/>reports
this morning that, in addition to TEA Party, conservative, and
Christian groups and individuals, Obama's IRS is now targeting Friends of
Abe (Abe=Abraham Lincoln), a group that brings together that rarest of
species in Hollywood -- conservatives.
Two years ago, Friends of Abe applied to the IRS for 501(c)(3) nonprofit
status -- just like the People for the American Way, TV producer Norman
Lear's leftist Hollywood group.
But Friends of Abe has been waiting two years for an answer from the IRS
and is now being "investigated." The IRS has asked for access to the
group's private Web site -- which the group has resisted because it would
mean giving the IRS access to the names of its members.
