My Grandpa's Parker - A Love Story

1 month ago | writingfactory.substack.com | Jeffrey Robinson

© Jeffrey Robinson 2005, 2025The pen lived in the top drawer of my grandmother's dresser, and although I saw it regularly — because she kept butterscotch in there, too — I never really paid attention to it. But that was before some nameless bureaucrat working in some anonymous office in the New York State Department of Education issued an edict that, inadvertently, changed my life.
CONFESSIONS OF AN AFTER DINNER SPEAKER'S LIFE ON THE COLD CHICKEN CIRCUIT - Unasked For but Otherwise Friendly Advice to Event Organizers

2 months ago | linkedin.com | Jeffrey Robinson

JR Doing His Thing © Jeffrey Robinson 2025 Life for those of us working the "cold chicken circuit" can be hazardous because so many meetings, conventions, lunches, dinners and keynotes are organized by chaotic amateurs who think it's enough simply to book a speaker, introduce him and hope it will l be all right on the night. They don't know how to create a successful event by insuring they get the best from their speaker. The problem is, too often, they think they do.
MONEY LAUNDERING IS A MADE UP CRIME

Jan 12, 2025 | linkedin.com | Jeffrey Robinson

© Jeffrey Robinson 2025 Money laundering is not a real crime. Apparently I raised some eyebrows a few years ago when, as the opening keynote speaker at an ACAMS conference, I made that statement. Yes, of course, I'm well aware of laws that penalize money laundering, which by definition, makes it a crime. But is it a real crime just because Congress and various parliaments say it’s a crime?
Who Knows What About You? It’s Well Worth Finding Out.

(c) Jeffrey Robinson 2024 In the spring of 1969, the FBI issued a warrant for my arrest. Apparently I’d been charged with several felonies, including armed robbery, aggravated assault and interstate flight. Disclaimer: I have never robbed a bank, never assaulted anyone and the only thing I know about interstate flight is American Airlines #1 from JFK to LAX. Needless to say, I knew nothing about any of these charges against me at the time, and only discovered I was a wanted man in 1972.

THE ONLY REASON YOU NEED THE KIND OF GENERALS THAT HITLER HAD, IS IF YOU’RE PLANNING TO DO THE KIND OF THINGS HITLER DID --- I WILL NOT BE SILENT!

Nov 4, 2024 | linkedin.com | Jeffrey Robinson

(c) Jeffrey Robinson 2024 Tomorrow is election day. Americans are being asked to make much the same choice that Germans did in the 1930s. They made the wrong choice because, they said, they didn't know. That's not true. They knew they didn't want to know and buried their heads in the sand. If we make the same mistake, the result will be even worse - because we know! If we get it wrong, there is no do over. I am reprinting this for the third and last time.
WE ARE DOWN TO THE FINAL WEEK - I CANNOT, AND WILL NOT, REMAIN SILENT

Oct 29, 2024 | linkedin.com | Jeffrey Robinson

© Jeffrey Robinson, 2024 AUTHOR'S NOTE: This past weekend Donald Trump held a "Bund" meeting" at Madison Square Garden, a sick tribute to the Nazi rally there in February 1939. Both were filled with outright lies, racism, hatred, xenophobia, homophobia, and despicable comments about anyone and everyone in opposition to the people ranting and raving from the stage. In putting his "revenge" tour in front of the American electorate, he is telling us who he is. Believe him.
I CAN NO LONGER REMAIN SILENT

Oct 17, 2024 | writingfactory.substack.com | Jeffrey Robinson

© Jeffrey Robinson, 2024When I first signed onto LinkedIn, a good friend offered this piece of advice. “Do not get political.”Until now, I have done just that. I’ve posted about money laundering and financial crime, about fraud, occasionally about one of my 30+ published books and, here and there, I’ve added what I call “amusements” - comments and observations from 50+ years of writing for a living.
