Clarification with Joseph's Bistro for those lagging behind.

It was brought to my attention that I didn't show my homework. So, here's the crumbtrail I followed to reach the conclusion I did.

If I'm a bit bitchy/snarky, it's because I've got an eye for detail and the information is already there if one was acutally paying attention instead of concern trolling. Well, no, let me take that back. Skepticism is healthy. No argument there. But the information I outlined was furnished with proof the first time 'round. So now I've got my highlighter ready to point out the bits others may have missed. Because they weren't picking up what I was putting down. But whatevs. Allonsy!

Let's start with Common Cause; I picked up on that tidbit due to Brad Sherman's association.

Here's the magic starting place, ok? >> https://www.bizapedia.com/ia/common-cause.html

From there, we follow the listed Iowa address 1922 Ingersoll Ave Des Moines, IA 50309; it belongs to a company that registers businesses. Common Cause Iowa (because every state plus the UK has a Common Cause) is one of two hundred fifty registered to that particular company.

One of which is O.P.E.N. America.

That is a connection. Granted, tenuous at best, but do you think that if people were up to nefarious deeds, they'd be super open about it in a blatant, neon arrow pointing HERE sort of way?

No. Compartmentalization is a way of life. It's why I think the other state's Common Causes were registered to different companies; keeps them compartmentalized, that way individual people aren't grouped together by a single company... because where's the fun in hiding in plain sight if everyone is huddled behind the same shrub? Heck, pretty sure some companies offer bundles and they could save if they lumped them all under the same company... yet that was never an option? Even if they started up at different times, wouldn't it make sense to just keep everything regarding that business kept together and maintained by a single entity, especially come renewal time? Just wondering why the various chapters of Common Cause aren't registered with a single company and haven't stumbled across a satisfactory answer, considering O.P.E.N America uses the same address for all their locations (which includes out of state locations).

O.P.E.N. America has two addresses listed; the Iowa one (1922 Ingersoll Ave Des Moines, IA 50309) and an Arizona one (4742 N 24th St., Ste 450 Phoenix, AZ 85016) they use the Arizona address for business registration.

Here you can see that O.P.E.N. America is the parent company of Openworks.

Now onto the Bistro, proper.

When one searches for the address, 4742 N 24TH ST PHOENIX, AZ 85016 (which is the same as Openworks, minus the suite number) and qualifies it with the term "Joseph" one gets this hit. Or, you know, at least I did. Granted, this is essentially cheating since I'm not following my prior investigation exactly (as it was done in the wee hours and I was tired). But the allegation was made that there was no proof that the bistro and Openworks were in the same building, and well, they obviously didn't try looking for it hard enough.

Gee, there it is in the top five hits.

So, there you have the crumbtrail, more or less, of how I found that bistro and Openworks listed at the same building.

And also consider this: if a lawyer got a new office and a bistro took over the location, there'd be major renovation to make an office/conference space into a food prep and dining area. So, my suggestion is to look and see if that sort of renovation took place through building permits and that sort of stuff.

If people are going to keep concern trolling this topic, it's going to keep investigators motivated to see where it goes because of the Streisand Effect.

And although it's confirmation bias at this time, the "suicides" going around, the DNC continually shooting themselves in the feet until they've been reduced to bloody stumps, gimping around the political landscape and convinced nothing bad has happened despite the ankle-stumps and bloodtrail, and the massive push to direct the topic into another direction, any direction... one can't help but to feel they are on a viable trail of finding a shady network that can't thrive in the light of discovery.
