For four years, Amy Nelson and her family have endured one of the most disgusting abuses of power and privilege we’ve seen waged against an American family. It involves mega-retailer Amazon, their team of fifty attorneys, and the Department of Justice.
In short, the Nelson family have been targeted for complete financial destruction. Seizures have been made. Threats continue incessantly. All the while, no charges have been filed and all of the evidence points to the Nelsons being innocent.
It’s important to note that we’re only seeing one side of this story. Amazon has not responded to requests for comment. However, a local news story corroborates much of what Nelson explains in her Twitter thread.
Here is the blood-boiling scenario as told by Nelson herself:
(These docs are all on the public docket in Amazon's civil case against my husband, where a federal judge ruled in April that my husband – even if he did exactly what Amazon said he did – acted in accordance with the "explicit terms" of AMAZON's contract.) /2

And then, 2 days later – Amazon's lawyer had the AUDACITY to email DOJ & say, hey, need you on the phone again! I want to tell you Amazon's position on the "timing" of the investigation & seizure we ordered up.
This is a real email, from a private attorney.

Amazon alleged a crime of private sector honest services fraud – meaning, Amazon had to prove that my. husband violated his duty to them as an employee.
SO AMAZON LIED ABOUT THE DUTY. They said my husband wasn't authorized to do biz w/ entities doing biz w/ Amazon /6 pic.twitter.com/8UK8Ps2Eop

So, yeah.
Amazon got DOJ to seize $7 million over an alleged breach of employment duties – that were false, not real, and actually contrary to the exact duties Amazon had in their own contract.
DOJ also obtained and executed search warrants with these false duties listed. /8

So if DOJ didn't rely in "any way" on the employment contract as the alleged source of "fiduciary duty" my husband allegedly criminally violated … what did they look at?
Can Amazon allow something in a contract and then try to put an American in prison for it? /10

Amazon's entire mission to "get" my husband was one of seek and destroy at any cost.
Me, my husband & our 4 girls endured civil forfeiture for 2 years, a terrifying FBI raid, and months of threats from prosecutors to arrest my husband in our home in front of our girls. /12
— Amy Nelson (@Amy_K_Nelson) January 5, 2024
Last year, Amazon's lawyer sent me a letter telling me if I didn't stop my "unlawful" social media posts sharing the names of lawyers hunting my family for Amazon that he would go to the court. He also called me a conspiracy theorist.
I didn't stop. Nor will I. /14

The media is terrified of this story. I get it. Everyone in the world is terrified of @JeffBezos. But we have the receipts because these lawyers were so damn sure we'd collapse and die so no one would ever see the paper trail.
And the paper trail is sloppy and horrifying. /16

Patrick Stokes, Elizabeth Papez, Jason Mendro, Claudia Barrett, Michael Dziuban, Amanda Sterling, Veronica Moye, George Hazel, Lora MacDonald, Travis Andrews, Rachel Robertson, Thomas Hungar, Jason Schwartz, David Casazza, Trisha Parikh, Luke Sullivan, Cate Harding, /18
— Amy Nelson (@Amy_K_Nelson) January 5, 2024
Internal Amazon lawyers: David Zapolsky, Dennis Wallace, Yousri Omar, D. Matthew Doden, Alexis Collins, Brad Elias, Sarah Tyerman, Marnina Cherkin. Those are the names I know currently, as identified by Amazon. /20
— Amy Nelson (@Amy_K_Nelson) January 5, 2024
And there is more: Like, why did DOJ prosecutors threaten to charge my husband with obstruction of justice or witness tampering if he refused to stop defending himself in Amazon's civil case?
I mean, weird? /22https://t.co/VxRmaBwaMW
— Amy Nelson (@Amy_K_Nelson) January 5, 2024
Please share our story with ANYONE you know who might help.
We've spent over $3 million legal fees. We've lost our home, car, retirement, & more.
No one deserves this. Someone could do the right thing today. Including @ajassy, @DavidZapolsky or @JeffBezos /24
— Amy Nelson (@Amy_K_Nelson) January 5, 2024
And, finally. Why do I name the lawyers?
People do things to people. We need to remember that. Companies can't make decisions – people do. Law firms can't scorch the earth of their targets – only people can.
We are all responsible for our decisions and actions. Always. /26

I will be interviewing Nelson soon and will post it when it’s live.
Three Reasons a Coffee Gift Set From This Christian Company Is Perfect for Christmas
When you’re searching for a Christmas gift that’s meaningful, useful, and rooted in faith, you don’t want to settle for anything generic. This season is filled with noise — mass-produced products, last-minute picks, and trends that fade as quickly as they appear. But one gift stands apart because it blends genuine quality with a message that matters: a coffee gift set from Promised Grounds Coffee.
This small Christian-owned company has become a favorite among believers who want to support faith-driven businesses while giving friends and family something they’ll actually enjoy. Here are three reasons a Promised Grounds Coffee gift set may be the most thoughtful and impactful present you give this year.
1. It’s Truly Delicious Coffee
Too many “gift-worthy” coffees look beautiful in the package but disappoint when the cup is poured. Promised Grounds takes the opposite approach — exceptional taste first, thoughtful presentation second.
Their beans are sourced with care, roasted in small batches, and crafted to bring out a rich, smooth flavor profile that appeals to both casual drinkers and true coffee lovers. Whether someone enjoys bold, dark roasts or lighter, more delicate blends, every sip reflects quality that stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the biggest specialty brands.
Simply put: this coffee is good. Really good. Some say it’s absolutely fantastic. If you want a gift that won’t be re-gifted, ignored, or shoved in a cabinet, this is it.
2. It Spreads the Word While Serving a Real Purpose
There are many Christian gifts that are meaningful… but not exactly practical. There are also useful gifts that have nothing to do with faith. Promised Grounds Coffee bridges both worlds beautifully.
Each gift set delivers an encouraging, faith-centered message through its packaging and presentation — a simple but powerful reminder of God’s goodness during the Christmas season. The cups are especially popular and serve as a daily reminder of the blessings from our Lord. At the same time, the product itself is something people will actually use and appreciate every single day.
It’s a gift that uplifts the spirit and fills the mug. A gift that points loved ones toward Scripture while still being part of the normal rhythm of life. And in a culture that increasingly pushes faith to the margins, giving a gift that quietly but confidently honors Christ can make a deeper impact than you might expect.
3. It’s Affordable, Valuable, and Elegantly Presented
Many people want to give something meaningful without breaking their Christmas budget. Promised Grounds Coffee strikes that perfect balance — the sets look and feel premium, but the price remains accessible.
The packaging is classy, clean, and gift-ready, making it ideal for:
- Family members of all ages
- Co-workers or employees
- Church friends or small-group leaders
- Hosts, neighbors, and last-minute gift needs
It’s the kind of gift that feels more expensive than it is — and more thoughtful than most of what you’ll find on store shelves.
The Perfect Blend of Faith, Flavor, and Christmas Cheer
A coffee gift set from Promised Grounds Coffee checks every box: a gift that tastes amazing, conveys your faith, supports a Christian business, and brings daily enjoyment to the person who receives it. In a season when so many gifts are forgotten, this one stands out for all the right reasons.
If you want a Christmas present that reflects your values and delivers genuine joy, Promised Grounds Coffee is the perfect place to start.
This may be the single worst written thing I’ve ever read on the internet.
Absolutely no explanation of what in hell the issue is. Freaking take a class in journalism or something.
Was pretty pathetic, wasn’t it —- typical of the AMERICAN SCHOOL OF EXCLUSIONARY REPORTAGE
I would NEVER comment on this —- their backgrounds show too many RED FLAGS, too many DEEP STATE actors involved (GIBSON DUNN, The Gates family law firm — YOU have possibly heard of Bill Gates???) — employed at a high level at AWS — which can extert control everywhere — who controls THE CLOUD?!?!
Amy Nelson says: “The media is terrified . .” —- sorry, but (1) there is NO media and (2) what you refer to as “the media” is completely owned and controlled by TPTB!
Amazon/AWS employs some of the craftiest attorneys in existence: the ONI, the Office of Naval Intelligence is the oldest and most elite of the intelligence entities and guess where some of those attorneys used to be at?!
This article is nothing but plagiarism of Twitter comments. Unreadable.
This is worse plagiarism than that gay Gay person did at Harvard.
This is complete gibberish the way you presented it. This should not have been published unless you have a story that is coherent and understandable. This is a mess.
