Next Bridge says SEC and FINRA still won’t meet.
Here’s why that matters:
Before the Dec. 9, 2022 U3 halt, DTC had documented stock-loan/due-bill failures, TradeStation had documented the need for an active market to replace unreturned shares, SEC filings showed Next Bridge would have no market or DTC eligibility, and FINRA had millions of reported open shorts.
Then FINRA halted $MMTLP for “settlement and clearance uncertainty.”
So the real question is:
If the problem was already documented before the halt, why did FINRA allow MMTLP to keep trading and process the corporate action until Dec. 9—then halt it for that same problem?
Here are the receipts. 🧵

Thank you, Monica for highlighting the significance of the loss we’re talking about here including not just financial but loss of life.
President Trump has to sign this letter. It’s not up for negotiation at this point.
Whoever is holding up this letter from getting to his desk better get out of the way because the people are coming.
BREAKING 🚨 THE SEC AND FINRA ARE IGNORING A U.S.-BASED COMPANY WITH ALLEGED COUNTERFEIT SHARES
THE REGULATORS ARE NOT DOING THEIR JOB… ❌ $MMTLP
Next Bridge Hydrocarbons states: For more than three years, the Company has repeatedly sought direct dialogue with regulators regarding the unprecedented events surrounding FINRA's U3 halt of MMTLP, the resulting share imbalances it left, and the continuing concerns the Company and shareholders have regarding these matters…. To date, this outreach has likewise not resulted in a response or a meeting being scheduled.
NOTICE TO ANYONE WHO READS THIS:
I’m going to say this plainly because it needs to be said.
The “trust the plan,” “5D chess,” and now “let Him cook” narrative is not patriotism. It’s passivity dressed up as strategy.
If you believe in the Constitution, then you already know the flaw in this thinking.
We the People are the government. (If I've said it once, I've said it a 1000 times)
Not spectators. Not an audience waiting behind the curtain while someone else pulls the levers of power.
There is no clause in the Constitution that says:
“Sit quietly while hidden operations unfold and just trust that it’s all being handled.”
That’s not a republic. That’s a monarchy mindset.
Transparency is not optional in a constitutional system. It is foundational. Power flows upward from the people, not downward from a protected class of decision makers operating in secrecy.
So when people say, “let Him cook,” what they’re really saying is:
“Don’t ask questions. Don’t demand accountability. Just wait.”
No.
That is the exact opposite of civic duty.
Holding leaders accountable, even the ones you support, is the responsibility of a free people. Blind trust is how governments overstep. Silence is how corruption survives.
You don’t preserve a republic by stepping back.
You preserve it by stepping up.
Ask the questions.
Demand the answers.
Stay engaged.
Because if “We the People” stop acting like the government…
someone else will gladly take that role for us.
ATTORNEY FOR CITADEL & VIRTU, "And why do they want to know whether our client caused a spike? Because they want to name us as a defendant in the lawsuit."
— Peter Fountain, attorney for Citadel Securities and Virtu, during a Feb 21, 2026 hearing — in the Meta Materials Inc. bankruptcy case

OPEN LETTER TO @SECGov INSPECTOR GENERAL
Subject: Request for Review, FOIA Processing Integrity, MMTLP-Related Requests, Outcome and Delay Disparities
Dear Inspector General,
I am writing to request that the Office of Inspector General review FOIA processing practices affecting requests related to MMTLP and the December 9, 2022 U3 trading halt.
Based on FOIA log analysis and request tracking compiled by the public and community requesters, a large proportion of MMTLP-related FOIAs experience extended delays and procedural parking states, including “Referral Request” and “On Hold,” with some requests remaining pending for more than a year and, in certain categories, with median pending times exceeding two years.
Separately, the updated SEC-wide vs MMTLP roll-up indicates a large outcome disparity, where MMTLP-tagged requests receive full or partial disclosure at a substantially lower rate than SEC-wide FOIAs, while B7 exemption outcomes are substantially more prevalent in MMTLP-tagged requests. These patterns, taken together, raise process-integrity concerns that delay can become functional denial, particularly when information is time-sensitive for oversight, bankruptcy proceedings, or public accountability.
I respectfully request an OIG review focused on:
1.Time-in-status controls: Median and maximum duration in “Referral Request,” “On Hold,” and “Perfected” statuses, and whether escalation triggers exist.
2.Bundling practices: Criteria for bundling, notice to requesters, opt-out availability, and measurable impact of bundling on timeliness and outcomes.
3.Outcome disparity: Comparison of disclosure outcomes and exemption usage between MMTLP-tagged and baseline SEC FOIAs, controlling for request scope and subject matter.
4.Transparency of extensions: Whether the SEC logs and reports extension counts and delay events per request ID, and whether the current system understates delay frequency.
For convenience, I can provide the supporting spreadsheets and PDFs, including top longest-pending and most-delayed request IDs and category-level pending-day statistics.
Thank you for your consideration. I am available to provide the supporting materials, methodology, and any additional context your office may require, you have all my contact information on file.
Sincerely,
George Palikaras

✨🎉!!!CONGRATULATIONS SEC!!!🎉✨
On behalf of defrauded investors, I would like to take a moment, on the 3-YEAR anniversary of NBH's S-1 submission, to congratulate the @Secgov and @SECPaulSAtkins on a JOB WELL DONE!!! 👏👏👏
🥂On January 23, 2023, Next Bridge Hydrocarbons (inheritor of The MMTLP Fiasco) submitted a 40M share offering to accredited investors. It has now been 3 YEARS since submitting the registration for NON-TRADING shares...the longest OUTSTANDING registration statement and the SECOND LONGEST approval in the SEC's 93-year history!
🥂To Chairman Atkins: you promised American companies and their investors a "NEW DAY AT THE SEC", with a focus on CAPITAL FORMATION. Who knew the "new day" meant obstructive delays, regulatory overreach, tortious interference, and weaponization of the SEC against a company and investors who have uncovered one of the biggest financial crimes in history. Good job, Chairman Atkins!!!
🥂Chairman Atkins, you promised to focus on the SEC's Mission to:
1⃣ PROTECT INVESTORS: MMTLP, do you feel PROTECTED???
2⃣ MAINTAIN FAIR & ORDERLY MARKETS: What was FAIR or ORDERLY about FINRA's U3 Halt??? WE STILL HAVE A SETTLEMENT ISSUE!!! Maybe consult the bluesheets pulled on December 5, 2022,...2 days before the halt. Or, ask Tradestation, Fidelity, Schwab, Etrade or the FIF "group of members" who asked for you to cover for their collective ass. (See below)
3⃣ CAPITAL FORMATION: Well, that's why we celebrate YOU today. Nice work!!!👏👏👏
🥂To David Saltiel, SEC Former Director of Trading & Markets. Thank you...for engaging with Howard Meyerson, Managing Director FIF. Recent FOIAs show email conversations that prove the ongoing CONSPIRACY between the SEC and broker-dealers to cover-up securities fraud and obstruct NBH's operations and governance. Truly, THANK YOU!!! #RICO
🥂The MMTLP Army hopes you enjoy your new position as Senior Managing Director of the Texas Stock Exchange (TXSE). Can you do investors one more favor, David? Ask your new bosses Citadel and Charles Schwab to cooperate with subpoenas issued by the Nevada Bankruptcy Court (MMAT). Afterall, if nothing is wrong, why dost thou protest too much??? We'd appreciate it, thx!
🥂To FINRA: Awe, did you think we would leave you out on this HISTORIC DAY? NEVER!!! Thank you for everything you have done to cement your role as the Co-Architects of The MMTLP Fiasco: ignoring investor and issuer complaints for over a year, breaking your own rules, U3 halting MMTLP to interfere in trade settlement (protecting shorts from fulfilling their OBLIGATIONS), your historic and grossly inaccurate & manipulative MMTLP FAQ and responses to Congressional Inquiries, and so much more! Looking forward to discovering the rest!!! #FOIA
🥂So, again THANK YOU to you ALL for underestimating defrauded investors and giving us the tools and information we need to expose ALL of YOU!!! 🫶 #Relentless
CHEERS!!! 🥂🎉
Psst...come closer...closer...closer...
WE ARE NOT GOING AWAY!!! 🖕🖕🖕
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
***MMTLP Investors to Hold Press Conference at SEC Demanding Accountability for Historic Market Failure**
Washington, DC January 6, 2026 Retail investors impacted by FINRA’s unprecedented U3 halt of MMTLP will hold a press conference on January 12, 2026, at 10:00 AM outside the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to demand transparency, accountability, and enforcement action following what they describe as a regulator driven market failure.
The press conference is being organized by American Made Action, and will be led by Ann Vandersteel, Co-Founder of American Made Action and Host of Steel News. The event will feature affected investors, and market transparency advocates calling attention to the actions of regulators and Wall Street firms that resulted in retail investors being stripped of the ability to trade lawfully held securities.
On December 9, 2022, trading in MMTLP was halted with no prior notice and no lawful resolution mechanism. Retail investors were denied the ability to close positions, while market makers and financial institutions were shielded from exposure. To date, no public explanation has reconciled how the halt complied with federal securities law or how investor protections were upheld. There has been no audited accounting of shares or enforcement of trade settlement.
“This was not a market driven outcome,” said Ann Vandersteel. “It was regulator driven. Wall Street firms were protected. Retail investors were not. That is not a free market. That is government intervention on behalf of financial institutions.”
Despite repeated inquiries, FOIA requests, and congressional correspondence, investors claim the SEC and FINRA have failed to provide meaningful answers.
The press conference will formally call for:
• Immediate public disclosure of communications between the SEC, FINRA, market makers, and broker dealers related to MMTLP
• Congressional hearings into regulatory capture and enforcement failures
• Accountability for decisions that violated investor protection mandates
• Restoration of lawful market remedies for affected shareholders
The MMTLP case has become a flashpoint for broader concerns about regulatory capture, weaponization of government agencies, selective enforcement, and the erosion of trust in U.S. capital markets. Organizers say the issue extends beyond one ticker symbol and strikes at the core of whether retail investors are afforded equal protection under the law.
Media are encouraged to attend.
Press Conference Details
Date: January 12, 2026
Time: 10:00 AM Eastern
Location: U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
100 F Street NE
Washington, DC
