This seemingly boring property tax story began when attorney Ron Pruitt filed nonprofit incorporation documents with Texas’ Secretary of State on. Nineteen days later, I published "Jesters" To Testify about Illegal Drugs, Child Prostitution?” then twelve days after that, I published “Judge Resigns, Police Captain to Plead Guilty as FBI Investigates Royal Order of Jesters for Prostitution.” Since these three stories broke within 33 days of each other four years ago, I have exposed, detailed and documented the greatest nonprofit fraud of our time human trafficking and prostitution at tax payer expense. On February 15, 2008, I launched the first ever investigation into the Shriners’ secret sub-group, the Royal Order of Jesters by publishing “Jesters Exposed.” It alluded to rumors of prostitution but actually focused on how the Jesters appealed property tax decisions by the Marion County assessor to tax their ”nonprofit” headquarters 100%. ![]() ![]() Photo credit: Brandt ConstructionĮditor’s Note: This article is dedicated to Carl Bernstein in honor of his 68th birthday today, February 14.

Thank You!**Sales Tax**eBay does collect sales tax for towns & states that have a sales tax - we personally do not see any of that money, it is handled by eBay.**International Buyers** - We ship internationally using eBay's Global Shipping Program**special note on arrival timesInternational mail has taken anywhere from 7 days to a month to arrive, (item can be held up in customs or at anywhere along the line) this is just how the postal system works, we mail things out the same day / next day after the item is paid for and hopefully that helps in getting the item to you as fast as the postal system can get it there.*** Please Note:The photos are taken on a measuring mat or next to a ruler for sizing. So please keep that in mind when buying from us to add those extra travel days to the expected arrival time that eBay sends you. So there's a lag time of about 3 days in there that eBay does not take into consideration for Sellers that are in Alaska. ![]() They no longer process mail in Alaska, so an item I mail here takes 1 day to get from North Pole to Anchorage, then usually 1 day to be flown to a processing center, then 1 day to get sorted. ![]() ROYAL ORDER OF JESTERS lapel pinJon Benson, ESQDirector Y2KReno Court XXXIIIThe Billiken BarristerHiaritasEst RextMirth Is KingHas red jewel in Billiken belly buttonPin measures approx 1 3/4 inch tallWe have more Royal Order of Jesters items available!
