WEST CHESTER \u2014 Everett Stern, a whistleblower who has spent a career exposing fraud and corruption and bringing to light the presence of dangerous fringe groups in America, announced today that he is a candidate for the United States Senate.<\/p>\n

“Protecting and defending the interests of the United States of America is my life’s passion and the central purpose of my career,” Stern said in a statement.\u00a0 “Now I want to take that dedication to the United States Senate and be a relentless voice for the benefit of the people of Pennsylvania.”<\/p>\n

Stern is the founder and CEO of private intelligence agency Tactical Rabbit.\u00a0 Part of the company’s work has included gathering inside information on radical political groups including the anti-law enforcement group FTP and the white supremacist organization Sovereign American. Intelligence gathered by Stern’s efforts was passed on to federal law enforcement.<\/p>\n

In 2011, Everett Stern gained international notoriety when he brought to light the illegal efforts of his then-employer, HSBC Bank, to launder money and assist nations involved in supporting terrorism and drug trafficking.\u00a0Stern’s work resulted in the bank being fined a record almost two billion dollars.<\/p>\n

“The people of Pennsylvania deserve a leader who will fight for them against the most powerful special interests, the most entrenched politicians, and a corrupt system whose leaders have forgotten that they answer to the people,” Stern said.\u00a0 “There’s never been a time when bold, unafraid new leadership has been more badly needed.”<\/p>\n
