But the blatantly false statement was sent to Dylan and the NY Times by
the board majority not long ago even after I corrected their
misinformation that same Monday night. Bill Goichberg, Randy Bauer, Jim
Berry and Randy Hough voted to make this issue public. As I told them,
if they do it, I have no choice but to respond.

I offered to open up everything for all members to see and to allow an
independent investigator investigate this entire matter from the
beginning. Once both sides have mutual immunity, Mr. Goichberg, Bauer,
Berry and Hough are free to present to the independent investigator all
their facts and we will present all our facts. If the investigator finds
any wrong doing from our side, we will resign immediately. If the
independent investigator finds wrong doing on their side, they will
resign on the spot.

Unfortunately, I doubt that they will accept that offer as they clearly
know who will come out on the right side. Their horrendous decisions put
the USCF in this terrible financial mess.

They know where the leaks came from for months and who gave confidential
information to Mr. Jerry Hanken to start a "secret and unauthorized"
negotiation with Sam Sloan. This alone could put the USCF, its board
members and others in serious legal problems, especially with a lawsuit
pending. I may be wrong but I cannot imagine the USCF attorney
recommending them to do this. I would like to note that the board
majority did not deny these allegations. They just want to investigate
their own subcommittee IF warranted. They will get to decide if it is
warranted or not. How convenient! Open everything up and let the members
decide!

When I pointed out the financial blunders, I was insulted by my fellow
board members.

Instead of focusing on promoting chess positively, increase memberships
and raise revenues, they chose to waste time, money and other resources
for their destructive political games. This was one of my platforms when
I ran for the board and I will do everything in my power to put an end
to this problem.

We need to save the USCF and not play dirty politics. It is not too late
for the board majority to apologize for what they did and get back on
track to saving the USCF. We will see what is more important: the future
of the USCF or their ego.

Best wishes,

When did she point out to the EB the financial blunders of the USCF?  Is
the pointing to be found in the BINFOs somewhere?  In the record of the
last EB meeting?  What exactly did she point out and how was she
allegedly insulted by the other EB members?

She has requested that all confidential records be made public. I
imagine what you ask for is in there.
