April 1, 2026 – Trump transitions Pam Bondi out of the Attorney General position, Blanche to be acting AG

Update (1315ET): President Donald Trump has ousted Attorney General Pam Bondi, multiple outlets report. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche is serving as acting AG in the interim.

The move comes amid White House frustration with Bondi’s leadership at the Justice Department –  particularly her handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files and what Trump viewed as insufficient aggression in targeting his political opponents. Trump had privately discussed firing her and floated EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin (or Blanche) as a possible replacement.

Bondi met with Trump in the Oval Office Wednesday night ahead of his speech to the nation on the war in Iran, where she reportedly was informed of her ouster, according to two sources familiar with the meeting. 

One of those sources said that by the time Trump took his place behind the podium for the address, Bondi already lost her job and was on her way back to Florida. –Fox News

And according to the WSJ, Trump weighed firing her in January but was persuaded not to do so. 

In a Thursday statement, Trump called Bondi “a Great American Patriot and a loyal friend, who faithfully served as my Attorney General over the past year,” adding “she will be transitioning to a much needed and important new job in the private sector, to be announced at a date in the near future, and our Deputy Attorney General, and a very talented and respected Legal Mind, Todd Blanche, will step in to serve as Acting Attorney General.”

UPDATE 4/3/2026

Trump confirms Pam Bondi is moving to a new position.

Now, all the Bondi haters are going to celebrate, and claim she is the reason xyz hasn’t happened yet. This could not be further than the truth. She did exactly what Trump instructed her to do, and Trump confirms that they “love Pam”, and she did a “tremendous job” bringing down crime to new lows.

However, the Bondi haters will ignore all the things Trump just said here, and push their own agenda. Unfortunately for these people, now they will have to find a new punching bag to blame everything on.

In reality, we are on Trump’s timeline, and things will happen when the time is right, regardless of who Trump has as AG at the time.

March 31, 2026 – RUBIO: If US can’t use European bases, NATO is a one-way street

Secretary Rubio called NATO a “one-way street,” reiterating that the United States will now have to reexamine its alliance:

“We are going to have to reexamine whether this alliance that has served our country well for so long is still serving that purpose—or has it now become a one-way street?

Right now, it seems like America is simply in the position of defending Europe, but when we need the help of our allies, they deny us basing rights and overflight permissions.

If we’ve reached the point where being in NATO means we can no longer use those bases to defend America’s interests, then NATO has truly become a one-way street.

It ends up meaning we have troops in Europe to defend Europe, but when we need them—just to allow us to use their military bases—their answer is no.

So why are we even in NATO? You have to ask that question.

Why have we spent hundreds of billions—trillions—of dollars over the years, and kept all these American forces stationed in the region, if in our time of need we’re not going to be allowed to use those bases?

There’s no doubt that, once this conflict is over, we’re going to have to reexamine that relationship.

We’re going to have to take a hard look at the value of NATO and this alliance for our country.

Ultimately, that’s a decision for the president to make—and he’ll have to make it.”

Trump has been hammering away on a new message. Have you caught on yet?

Today was a masterclass by Trump, and that’s because he continued to hammer this message into the minds of the world.

A few weeks ago Trump said the following to 90 million Iranians during the initial strikes on Iran:

“When we are finished, take over your government. It will be yours to take.”

Take.

“Now is the time to seize control of your destiny… This is the moment for action.”

Action.

Take action.

Today he told the UK: “Build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT. Go get your own oil.”

See the theme? It’s agency.

To the Iranians under the mullahs: Take it. Seize it. You need to have agency.

To the UK sitting out the fight: Take it. Take your oil. You need to have agency.

Trump is ending the era where the world relies on America as if America is their parent.

Trump is using the Iran war as the mechanism to sever the world from America.

Even tonight in the Oval Office Trump said other countries need to fend for themselves.

Expect Trump to continue hammering this agency message home over the next few weeks.

And make sure to watch for his use of the word “take”. You might lose count.

April 1, 2026 – Inside Gavin Newsom’s empire of fraud

The pattern that emerges in California is that of a vast system that almost seems to invite fraud.

California is a cash machine.

The state collects some of the country’s highest income, business, and fuel taxes, and now spends more than $300 billion per year.

And yet, everywhere you look, California seems to be falling apart.

(…) We conducted interviews with public officials, fraud experts, and political figures, and reviewed hundreds of pages of government reports, state audits, criminal indictments, and other public records on California fraud.

Seemingly every state program has been compromised by criminals.

The best estimates suggest that, on the governor’s watch, fraudsters, scammers, and organized crime rings have stolen at least $180 billion from taxpayers.

Welcome to Gavin Newsom’s empire of fraud.

Fourteen months after Newsom began his first term as governor, the COVID-19 pandemic swept the world. The state’s leaders imposed some of the country’s most restrictive public-health measures. In response to the crisis, Newsom sought to dump pallets of cash across the state — as quickly as possible.

One way to inject money was through California’s massive unemployment insurance program (UI). Unemployment insurance is administered by the state’s Employment Development Department (EDD), which can process billions of dollars in payments monthly. Before the state turned on the cash machine, however, experts had warned that the system was ripe for fraud.

Haywood Talcove, one of America’s leading fraud specialists and CEO of LexisNexis Risk Solutions for Government, said: “I was begging [federal officials] not to let the money go out like that, because it was going to be the biggest fraud in the history of our country. Obviously, I wasn’t successful.”

For many reasons, California was particularly susceptible to the large-scale fraud schemes that Talcove foresaw.

“They literally suspended all of the rules for the [unemployment insurance] program,” Talcove said. “[That made] it possible for anyone to get that benefit even if they weren’t entitled to it. It was very intentional. They knew what they were doing. But it caught up to them because it just got so out of control.”

The scams began almost immediately, with criminals from around the world reportedly siphoning cash from the program. In one case, a Romanian-led fraud ring orchestrated a $5 million unemployment-insurance scheme. Many of the fraudsters wired the stolen funds to Romania.

Around September 2020, Fontrell Antonio Baines, a rapper from Memphis known as Nuke Bizzle, released a music video on YouTube entitled “EDD.” In the song, Baines bragged about ripping off California’s UI program. “Go to the bank with a stack of these,” Baines rapped, holding up EDD envelopes. Another rapper can be heard saying: “You gotta sell cocaine, I just file a claim.” All told, Baines obtained more than $700,000 in stolen funds using preloaded EDD debit cards. He pleaded guilty to federal charges.

California’s prison population apparently got in on the action, too: The EDD allegedly paid out hundreds of millions of dollars in fraudulent claims in prisoners’ names, including those of at least 133 inmates on death row.

Remarkably, EDD not only failed regularly to cross-reference its unemployment payouts with a list of state prisoners, but it also had just two bureaucrats assigned manually to inspect reports of suspected fraud.

State officials eventually admitted to having paid out approximately $20 billion in fraudulent claims during the pandemic, and to making an estimated $55 billion in improper payments. Talcove claims those figures don’t even tell the full story: “In California, at one point, you had more people applying for unemployment insurance benefits than you had people over the age of 18.”

While Newsom has conceded that “bad actors” took advantage of the UI program, he has also defended his government’s record, saying they took swift action as soon as the alleged prison scheme surfaced. The EDD, for its part, has a webpage documenting its anti-fraud efforts. But any suggestion that California has fraud under wraps is contradicted by findings from its nonpartisan state auditor.

April 2, 2026 – A librarian in TN is fired for refusing to remove pornographic LGBTQ+ books from children’s section

April 2, 2026 – Democrat fundraising juggernaut ActBlue likely lied to Congress about foreign donations

In early 2025, the law firm, Covington & Burling out of Washington DC, raised legal concerns that ActBlue’s CEO lied to GOP investigators in a 2023 letter explaining how the organization vetted donations to ensure that they were not illegally coming from foreign citizens.

This shocking development was published in The New York Times this week.

Laura Ingraham and Chip Roy discussed this latest ActBlue scandal on Thursday night.

(…) The colloquial term used to describe this alleged operation is “smurfing.”  Peter Bernegger, Chris Gleason, Phil Allison, and their team discovered this suspected campaign money laundering operation and went public with it in 2023 when James O’Keefe’s OMG published videos interviewing suspected victims of this scheme.

(…) On Friday, Bernegger joined the Why We Vote podcast to discuss the recent reports that have come out of Congress via Rep. Bryan Steil and Rep. Jim Jordan.  According to subpoenaed records from ActBlue, Just The News reported that ActBlue updated its policy on Sept 9th to “automatically reject donations that use foreign prepaid/gift cards, domestic gift cards, are from high-risk/sanctioned countries, and have the highest level of risk as determined,” by its solution provider, Sift.

Bernegger had several crucial updates regarding their own investigation into this money-laundering scheme regarding an automated process to make the donations, why ActBlue’s policy update likely won’t have any impact on any accounts established before the change, and whether or not the incoming Trump administration will engage in this investigation.

New Smurf Evidence

Senator Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) has allegedly benefitted from ActBlue “Smurfing” operations, including 12 donors responsible for identical contributions totalling over $2.4 million

Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) raised approximately $30.9 million in her 2018 campaign.  Her 2024 campaign, however, trounced that number, nearly doubling it to $59.6 million.  From July 25, 2024 to September 30, 2024, she raised $11 million with $9.4 million coming from individual ‘donors,’ according to WPR.

By comparison, her opponent, Eric Hovde, raised just $29.3 million with $20 million of that being a personal loan he made to his campaign.  In that same July to September timeframe, Hovde raised $2.8 million from individual donors.

Using state and federal government data, Bernegger has publicly accused Baldwin of benefiting from the illegal smurfing operation.  According to his data and investigation, Baldwin has received $27,850,750 via the smurfing operation since 2017, including 69,433 donations since 2017 from a single donor, “Sonia.”  “Sonia” lives in an assisted living facility, but that didn’t stop her from allegedly donating 7.5 times per day, every single day, for 7.5 years.

UPDATE: 4/4/2026

New York Times:

In early 2025, a law firm working for ActBlue, the Democratic fund-raising behemoth, delivered the organization a startling warning.

The firm concluded that ActBlue’s chief executive had given a potentially misleading response to congressional Republican investigators in a 2023 letter explaining how the organization vetted donations to ensure that they were not illegally coming from foreign citizens.

The letter from the chief executive, Regina Wallace-Jones, said ActBlue carried out “multilayered” screenings of contributions that helped “root out” those from overseas. In fact, the law firm found, some of the steps she had described were not always followed.

So, ActBlue lied to Congress. That’s a federal crime.

But then the piece gets even more gloomy for ActBlue. Apparently, the lawyers reportedly warned ActBlue that the situation carried real legal risk, including the possibility that prosecutors could see this as something knowing and willful, hence the “federal crime” stuff.

NYT:

This presents a substantial risk for ActBlue,” the law firm, Covington & Burling, wrote in one of two memos expressing legal concerns. One memo raised the specter of a criminal investigation if prosecutors believed that ActBlue had tried to conceal facts about its efforts to prevent foreign contributions.

This is where the NYT softball stuff starts to crumble. ActBlue knew this was a powder keg. They were warned.

The memos raised the possibility that foreign money may have gotten through and that staff knew the safeguards were not as strong as they needed to be.

NYT:

It can be alleged that ActBlue accepted and/or facilitated the acceptance of foreign-national contributions into American elections,” one memo states. “In addition, because ActBlue’s staff was aware that its system was not as robust as necessary, it could be alleged that these violations were ‘knowing and willful,’ a standard that both increases the penalties the F.E.C. might seek and gives the Justice Department jurisdiction for a potential criminal investigation.

That right there is devastating. We’re now looking at some very real fraud.

April 2, 2026 – Today marks the one year anniversary of America’s Liberation Day

(Credit: video clipping)

“One year ago today, President Trump threw away the illusions of ‘free trade’ to finally put Americans and America First. The results since Liberation Day have been astonishing: over 20 new trade deals, trillions in manufacturing investments, lower drug prices, and lower goods trade deficits. And this is just the beginning of the President’s transformation of global trade: as these investment and trade deals continue taking effect, and more get signed, Americans can count on the best being yet to come.”
— White House spokesman Kush Desai

As America marks one full year since Liberation Day, the U.S. economy stands more resilient, more competitive, and more secure than it did just 12 months ago. President Trump’s tariffs have protected American workers, generated substantial new revenue, encouraged fairer trade deals, and accelerated the return of manufacturing to U.S. soil.

The results of President Trump’s America First trade policy are unmistakable:

  • Narrowing Trade Deficits: The U.S. goods trade deficit has fallen 24% from April 2025 through February 2026 compared to the same period a year earlier, and has decreased every single month on a year-over-year basis since Liberation Day.
  • Rebalancing Global Trade: U.S. bilateral trade balances in goods have improved more than 63% of our trading partners since Liberation Day.
    • The U.S. goods trade deficit with China has gone down by 32% over the past year, and 46% from April 2025 through January 2026. For the first time since 2000, China is no longer the trading partner with which the United States has its largest trade deficit.
    • The U.S. goods trade deficit with the European Union has gone down by nearly 40% from April 2025 through January 2026, compared to a year earlier.
    • The U.S. has even started to run a goods surplus with Switzerland for the first time since 2012.
  • Foreigners Producers Are Bearing the Cost: After Liberation Day, according to a Bank of England study, the average price of exports to the U.S. fell, but the average price of exports to other countries did not. This is one indication that foreigners are ultimately paying for a share of the tariffs by lowering export prices.
  • Securing Fair, America First Trade Deals: The Trump Administration has secured more than 20 new trade agreements with major partners including the EU, Japan, India, Vietnam, and Argentina.
    • These deals cover over half of global GDP, tear down non-tariff barriers, and open new markets for U.S. agriculture, energy, and industrial goods, with partners like Japan and the EU aligning with U.S. auto standards.
  • Driving a Resurgence in American Manufacturing: Trillions in private and foreign investments are fueling a historic reshoring of American industry, bring jobs, production, and supply chains back home.
    • Investments span sectors and companies across the economy — from Apple to Toyota to Sharpie to Micron to Pfizer.
    • Shipments of core capital goods—a leading indicator of new industrial capacity—reached new record highs in 2025. Capital goods imports as a share of all goods imports are at an all-time record high.
  • Manufacturing Activity is Rebounding: In January 2026, a leading indicator based on surveys of U.S. manufacturers signaled that factory activity expanded for the first time in over two years. This trend has continued in February and March.  These are the highest readings since August 2022.
    • The industrial production index is at its highest level since 2019, and has been on an upward trend since President Trump was elected in November 2024.
    • In 2025, the United States surpassed Japan in crude steel production for the first time since 1999, becoming the world’s third-largest steel producer behind China and India.
    • Manufacturing productivity registered its biggest annual increase in 2025 in nearly two decades.
  • American Workers Are Benefiting: Private sector workers have seen strong real wage gains of more than $1,400 in just one year, decisively beating inflation. Blue-collar workers have benefited the most, with manufacturing wages up $1,800, construction wages up $3,000, and mining and logging wages up $1,900.
    • In just one year under President Trump, blue-collar workers have made up all of the wages they lost under Biden.
    • Under Biden, workers’ real wages couldn’t keep up with inflation – causing American workers to lose nearly $3,000 in purchasing power.

These strong results prove that President Trump’s America First trade policies are making our country wealthy, strong, and respected once again. As more agreements take effect and investment continues to surge, one thing is clear: America’s best days are still ahead.

April 3, 2026 – The FBI files a motion to quash discovery requests in the Seth Rich case

Today the FBI filed a motion to quash our discovery requests in the Seth Rich case (i.e., Huddleston v. FBI), and it’s a real cheap shot. The FBI tried to frame it as if we were ignoring previous court orders denying discovery about Seth Rich, but our discovery requests were not targeted at Seth Rich. Instead, they were targeted at the FBI’s overall pattern of hiding documents from FOIA requestors. That distinction is critical, and the FBI knows it.

True enough, discovery is typically not allowed in a FOIA case. We’ve never disputed that. But Huddleston v. FBI is not just a standard FOIA case. In 2024, the presiding judge allowed us to file a supplemental complaint, and that complaint had nothing to do with Seth Rich or any other particular FOIA request. Instead, we asked the court to enjoin the FBI from hiding records from FOIA requestors via various schemes and tricks set forth in the supplemental complaint. I’ll file a response to the FBI’s motion, and hopefully this case will start moving faster.

On another front, the court largely denied our motion to hold the FBI in contempt for violating its orders to produce records from Seth Rich’s laptops. Instead, the court gave the feds 60 days to explain why they did not produce or account for all of the data on the laptops. That was a disappointing result, but the battle is not over.

If you want to know more about what the FBI is trying to hide, you can look at the supplemental complaint, the discovery requests, and the FBI’s motion (links below). I’ve also posted a link to the court’s order denying our motion to hold the FBI in contempt.

April 4, 2026 – Peter Schweizer: Mexican legislators reside in the US while serving in Mexico’s Congress; official role is to represent Mexican Americans

Peter Schweizer highlights a troubling arrangement: some Mexican legislators actually reside in the United States while serving in Mexico’s Congress, including the Senate and Chamber of Deputies.

Their official role is to represent Mexican Americans living in the U.S. to the Mexican government—meaning they live in American states (like Arizona) but draft and vote on Mexican laws.

Schweizer frames this as a major breach of U.S. sovereignty, since these politicians—working for a foreign nation—operate from within the U.S. while advancing Mexico’s national interests. Mexican officials have even described the Mexican diaspora in America as a “strategic resource” to be leveraged for Mexico’s benefit.

In short:

• Mexican senators and deputies live in the U.S.
• They legislate for Mexico while focusing on
Mexican Americans.
• The Mexican government views its population in
the U.S. as a political asset.
• Critics see it as a foreign government footprint
inside the United States.

Why are current Mexican politicians living in the U.S.?

And to make the situation even weirder, their job is focusing on legislation for Mexican Americans, says Peter Schweizer. He calls it a massive intrusion on U.S. sovereignty.

“This bizarre situation, where in the Mexican Senate and in the Mexican Chamber of Deputies, which is their Congress, you have representatives that live in the United States.”

“Their job is to represent Mexican Americans that live in the United States before the Mexican government.”

“So you have a Mexican senator who lives in Arizona, representing Mexican Americans in Arizona, who is in the Mexican Senate, introducing legislation, voting on bills, advising the government how to help Mexican Americans in the country.”

“They talk about the Mexican diaspora in the United States as a ‘strategic resource’ that can be used for the benefit of the Mexican government.”

“To me, it’s shocking.” ☠️

April 5, 2026 – Saudi Prince reveals Obama’s sanctions relief deal lifts Iran’s $150 billion in frozen assets (and pallets of cash), yet they did not build a single street

This past week, Saudi Prince Mohammad bin Salman revealed that President Obama gave Iran $150 billion when Obama was in office, and the regime did not even build a single street with that money.

Instead, they used the money to make missiles and drones and to fortify their proxy armies in the region like Hamas, Ansar Allah, and Hezbollah. With these funds, Iran offers a safe harbor to the leaders of Al Qaeda, including one of Osama Bin Laden’s sons, who was indoctrinated into jihadism.

Saudi Prince MbS reveals that President Obama gave Iran $150B, and the IRGC didn’t even build a single street with that money.

Instead, they used the money to make missiles and drones. And on top of that, they also used the funds Obama provided them to finance and arm terrorists like Hamas, Ansar Allah, and Hezbollah. With these funds, Iran offers safe harbor to the leaders of Al Qaeda, including one of Osama Bin Laden’s sons who was indoctrinated into jihadism.

Obama is by far the worst man to ever set foot in the Oval Office. The neoliberals like Hillary Clinton, Victoria Nuland, Samantha Power, etc. who ran his administration did so deliberately in order to keep the region destabilized and to use Iran as a buffer to prevent the Gulf states and Israel from amassing too much prosperity.

Middle East 24 reported:

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman delivered one of his most direct public assessments of the Iranian regime, describing it as a purely ideological project with no interest in serving its own people and every interest in funding terrorism and destabilizing the region.

His evidence was concrete. Iran received $150 billion in sanctions relief yet did not build a single street, residential complex, or industrial facility for its citizens. Every dollar went toward launching missiles at Saudi Arabia and financing terrorist organizations across the world.

MBS went further than most Western leaders have been willing to go publicly, stating directly that Iran’s support for terrorism extends well beyond Hezbollah and the Houthis. He noted that senior Al-Qaeda leaders are residing inside Iran today, including Osama bin Laden’s son, who was raised in Iran and is now positioning himself as the next leader of Al-Qaeda.

The Crown Prince said Saudi Arabia has no ambiguity about these dangers and is actively coordinating with partners on how to address them to keep the Middle East, Europe, and the broader world safe from what he called these destructive ideologies.

The statement represents one of the clearest and most comprehensive public indictments of the Iranian regime from a sitting Arab head of government, delivered at a moment when Iran is simultaneously firing missiles at Saudi territory and running proxy networks from Beirut to Khartoum to Sanaa.

(Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 4/5/2026)  (Archive)

When Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman recently remarked that Iran “didn’t build a single street” with the billions Barack Obama returned to the regime, he wasn’t exaggerating — he was summarizing a decade of Western self-sabotage dressed up as diplomacy.

In 2015, under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), the Obama administration unfroze over $100–150 billion of Iranian assets and sent $1.7 billion in literal cash transfers to Tehran. The official explanation was that this was Iran’s “own money,” part of a decades-old settlement from the Shah’s era. In reality, it became the single greatest funding injection ever received by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) — a military and intelligence octopus already controlling the nation’s economy through shell corporations and terror-aligned front groups.

Within months of the payout, Iran funneled hundreds of millions to Hezbollah and Hamas, expanded its IRGC Quds Force operations across Syria and Iraq, and increased funding for Yemen’s Houthi insurgency (later responsible for targeting civilian ships in the Red Sea). Iranian officials themselves admitted it: everything from “what we eat and drink” to “our rockets” comes from Tehran’s regime coffers.

While Iranian cities fell further into poverty, the regime’s war machine boomed — drones, ballistic missiles, and oil-smuggling networks began popping up in violation of international sanctions that Obama himself had dismantled. Western elites congratulated themselves on a “historic peace deal” while Tehran armed militias from Lebanon to Sana’a.

And as intelligence later confirmed, Iran served as a covert haven for senior Al Qaeda figures, including Osama bin Laden’s son Hamza, who spent years under the protection of the IRGC before being groomed into jihadist leadership. Washington conveniently ignored this.

🔥 Neoliberal Chaos as a Governing Strategy

The Obama team — Clinton, Nuland, Power, Rhodes — weren’t naïve idealists. They were intentional engineers of disorder. Their strategy was not to stabilize the Middle East, but to strategically destabilize it — just enough to maintain leverage over both allies and adversaries.

By empowering Iran as a “regional counterweight,” they diluted the influence of the Gulf and contained Israeli power under the veneer of “nonproliferation.” But what they actually created was a proliferation of chaos, not of nukes but of dependency: Europe flooded with refugees, North Africa imploded, and militant networks metastasized in the vacuum.

The Arab Spring, romanticized as a democratic awakening, devolved almost immediately into a U.S.-managed implosion — a controlled burn that shattered regional economies and sent millions fleeing toward Europe. That migratory tidal wave destabilized EU politics, broke social cohesion, and imposed irreversible demographic and fiscal stress. If that looks like an accident, you haven’t studied Washington’s history of “accidents.”

🧩 The Pattern Repeats: Ukraine and Beyond

The same ideological playbook reappeared in Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Belarus, and attempts at color revolutions in Georgia and Central Europe. The toolset shifted from armies to NGOs, from bombs to “development aid.”

USAID and its constellation of “civil society” fronts became the soft-gloved hand of the same policy. As independent reports have shown, millions in U.S. taxpayer money have been funneled — often through Western NGOs — into organizations later caught promoting agitation and even associating with militant movements. It’s the same coercive architecture the U.S. used to micromanage the Middle East, now redeployed against Russia’s periphery and Eastern Europe’s populist strongholds.

🕸 The Logic Beneath It All

For the permanent Washington bureaucracy — the neoliberal establishment entrenched in intelligence, media, and the diplomatic corps — peace is a liability and chaos is capital.

A stable Middle East would mean a self-sufficient Eurasia — and that threatens the unipolar financial and geopolitical order sustained by Washington and Brussels since 1945. Iran was never meant to be “contained.” It was meant to be weaponized as a pressure valve, a permanent destabilizer preventing the region from forming independent energy, trade, and defense alliances.

The refugee crises, the proxy wars, the endless “humanitarian interventions” — all are manifestations of a consistent doctrine: weaponize volatility to preserve control.

The Obama administration perfected this formula. Biden’s teams only inherited it. And every Western capital paying the price today — from Paris to Warsaw — is now living amid the debris of Obama-era globalism.

In short: the Iran Deal wasn’t a mistake. It was a design.

A design that traded regional peace for permanent leverage — that armed terrorists under the banner of “diplomacy” and fractured Western civilization under the banner of “human rights.”

If chaos is a ladder, Obama built the first few rungs.

“They called it peace — but it was an investment in permanent war.”
— After-Action memo, CENTCOM analyst (2025)

What began as Obama’s diplomatic victory ended as a $150 billion liquidity bomb that armed tyrants, sent millions fleeing, and handed the 21st century’s most dangerous regime the global keys to chaos.

History will not remember it as diplomacy.

It will remember it as economic warfare against civilization itself.

April 6, 2026 – Virginia prosecutors offer ‘insane’ plea deal to illegal aliens convicted of murder

Prosecutors in Fairfax County, Virginia, offered an “insane” plea deal to two illegal aliens charged in a vicious mob-style murder, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials say.

Last week, the Fairfax County District Attorney’s Office offered a 5-year plea deal to illegal aliens Maldin Anibal Guzman-Videz and Luis Alonzo Sort-Portillo, both of whom were convicted of murdering Nicacio Hernandez Gonzalez in July 2024 at a park in Oakton, Virginia.

“This 5-year sweetheart plea deal for murder is insane,” DHS’s Lauren Bis said:

This is yet another example of Fairfax sanctuary politicians siding with criminal illegal aliens over U.S. citizens. We are calling on Fairfax Country sanctuary politicians and Governor Abigail Spanberger to commit to not releasing these murderers from jail back into our communities. How many more times must they release criminals into our neighborhoods to create more innocent victims? [Emphasis added]

A federal immigration judge ordered Guzman-Videz deported in 2019, but he remained in the United States anyway. He was later arrested for assault, failure to appear, larceny, obstruction of justice, and malicious wounding after he allegedly robbed a Greek family restaurant and assaulted a person with a knife.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) asked Fairfax County officials not to release Guzman-Videz from jail, but he was continuously released back onto the streets.

Meanwhile, Sort-Portillo entered the U.S. as an unknown got-away. (Breitbart News, 4/6/2026)  (Archive)

“The number of credible women who have come forward since I posted my video is pretty shocking and connecting them with the investigative reporting teams who have been working on breaking this for years has greatly expedited this process,” Hunt said on X.

Swalwell is currently running for governor of California.

April 7, 2026 – A bipartisan Bill is submitted called the “Dignidad Act” masked as amnesty for illegal aliens

Hello Representative Salazar,

You probably don’t even know this… but he word “dignity” in your bill’s title carries decades of political science literature behind it.

Dignity shifted from something that originates within the individual to something engineered from above by institutions. When the UN, NGOs, and multilateral bodies invoke dignity, they mean the replacement of organic, inherited civic bonds with managed, contractual ones administered by a professional class. That is the tradition your bill’s language is drawing from, whether you intend it or not.

On the substance: the DIGNITY Act is amnesty. Symbolic barriers to permanent residency do not change that the bill provides a path to legal status for tens of millions of people who entered the country unlawfully. Others have dissected the policy details thoroughly, so I won’t repeat their work here.

But I want to press a different question. Why the insistence that this isn’t amnesty? The most straightforward explanation is that you know your constituents oppose it. They voted for enforcement, in the most demographically diverse Republican coalition in modern history. That coalition didn’t ask for managed integration. It asked for sovereignty.

The Founding Fathers built a republic from the bottom up, starting with human nature as it actually is: rooted in specific communities. The rules-based international order builds from the top down, starting with an abstract ideal and engineering populations to match it. Your bill, whatever its intentions, belongs to the second tradition, the one that is non-American. It assumes that cohesion can be manufactured through NGO programs… public schools, civic integration, managed assimilation… rather than protected through enforcement of the boundaries that a self-governing people chose to establish.

That is not a conservative position. It is not a republican position in any meaningful sense.

And your constituents can see it.

We see you.

You are a fraud, Representative Salazar.

So, I did exactly what you asked and I sat down and read ALL 261 pages of your bill.

It does support mass amnesty and I’ll tell you exactly where:

Pages 162-170… The Dream Act:

You grant conditional lawful permanent resident status to ILLEGAL ALIENS who:

>Have been continuously present in the U.S. since January 1, 2021
>Entered before age 18
>Meet education, employment, or military service requirements
>Pass criminal background checks

On top of this, in Sec. 2102(b)(3)(B), DACA recipients get fast-tracked to conditional green card status.

…which is literally mass amnesty

BUT THE BILL GOES EVEN FURTHER!!!

On pages 204-217, you present the Dignity Program:

This is a separate track for illegal aliens who don’t qualify for the Dream Act.

If you are an illegal aliens who:

> Was continuously present since December 31, 2020
>Pay a $1,000 upfront “restitution” fee
>Submit biometrics, pass a background check
>No felony convictions

You get work authorization + travel authorization + deferred removal for 7 years

After completing the 7-year program (paying $7,000 total in fees, staying employed, obeying laws, paying back taxes):

We grant you:
> “Dignity Status” which is essentially a lawful nonimmigrant status, which is renewable any number of times
>Work and travel authorization

But the most important bit that you’re hiding here is that it totally suspends deportation of anyone who qualifies for this.

This would effective end ALL MASS DEPORTATIONS in the United States immediately.

You are a liar, you are a fraud, everything you stand for is fake… did YOU read your own bill?

Because I just did, and you are a damned LIAR!!!!!

 

April 7, 2026 – Mark Meadows claims in Q3 of 2026, a supporter of Trump will take ownership of CNN

April 8, 2026 – Mamdani announces his plan to fulfill a campaign promise to divide NYers and impose higher taxes on white people

April 7, 2026 – CNN lies to the American public with fake 10 point peace plan with Iran

One might argue, that this little stunt pulled by CNN, could be considered aiding and abetting the enemy during wartime, aka, TREASON!

We have been so desensitized to the media being an enemy of the People, but this is insanity.

This wasn’t an accident. CNN tried to sabotage Trump’s peace plan and are spreading Iranian propaganda, with the intent to prevent the public from celebrating Trump’s great accomplishment.

This is proof that the Left-wing MSM are truly allied with the enemy. Co-conspirators. Treason.

Iran signed a ceasefire last night and broke it before most Americans finished breakfast.

But that’s not the story.

The story is what Trump did while everyone was staring at the missiles.

The sequence: Iran signs ceasefire. Iran releases fake version claiming total victory. CNN runs fake version as real news. Trump calls it fraud. Iran launches missiles at Israel, Kuwait, UAE, and Bahrain.

Ceasefire lasts fewer hours than a domestic flight.

Everyone is asking the wrong question. The question isn’t “why did Iran break the ceasefire.” The answer to that is obvious. Iran has a political wing that wants to negotiate and a military wing that wants to die fighting. The IRGC operates 32 independent regional commands.

The politicians signed the paper. The generals launched the missiles.

Iran is a country negotiating with itself at gunpoint.

Trump already knows this.

This morning he posted that Iran has gone through “a very productive regime change.” He’s not angry about the broken ceasefire. He’s looking past the IRGC and talking directly to the political faction that’s still alive and desperate.

Then, minutes later, he posted a 50 percent tariff on any country supplying weapons to Iran. He didn’t name China. He didn’t have to.

Five Iranian ships left a Chinese port carrying sodium perchlorate, the chemical you need to make the solid rocket fuel inside every missile that just hit Kuwait. China trades $500 billion a year with the US. Russia trades under $500 million. The tariff isn’t about Russia.

So: one hand offers Iran reconstruction money and sanctions relief. The other hand prices China out of the Iranian weapons pipeline. Two posts, two targets, one table.

Meanwhile there’s a conservative commentator somewhere reading the CNN version of Iranian propaganda and telling you Trump surrendered.

My brother in Christ, he just set the opening bid for a meeting with Xi Jinping.

Are you paying attention?

Earlier today Ro Khanna was claiming that Trump is a genocidal maniac akin to Hitler.

Now he is claiming that Trump is a cheese eating surrender monkey akin to France.

How do Democrats reconcile such irreconcilable thoughts inside their heads? There are only two possible explanations:

1. They have zero qualms about lying.

2. They have fully abandoned logic and reason in favor of emotion.

Sometimes I feel like Spock gawking at Doctor McCoy.

April 8, 2026 – FBI arrests former Army Special Operations employee for leaking classified National Defense Information to media

The ‘reporter’ who helped a former Army special operations employee allegedly commit treason has been revealed, and his background should come as no surprise.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, the FBI arrested a former Special Operations Command employee for leaking classified national defense information to the media.

Courtney Williams, 40, of Wagram, North Carolina, allegedly transmitted classified material to individuals not authorized to see it, including a journalist, the DOJ said.

She was arrested on Tuesday and indicted by a federal grand jury on Wednesday.

Federal prosecutors say that between 2022 and 2025, Williams disclosed top-secret classified information in phone and text message communications with a journalist.

While the ‘journalist’ was not named in the indictment, numerous reports have confirmed the person is investigative reporter and foreign correspondent Seth Harp.

Harp, who writes for the far-left Rolling Stone, previously profiled Williams for his book “The Fort Bragg Cartel,” published in August 2025.

The far-left hack also published his profile of Williams in a Politico article.

Following the news of William’s arrest, Harp lashed out on X, calling it an “outrage.”

April 9, 2026 – The Federal Judicial Center: A taxpayer funded, ideologically captured, “neutral” judicial training program

April 10, 2026 – Church World Service has received a total of $377 million in federal funds and promotes Islamic terrorist organizations and illegal immigration

Church World Service is currently receiving $377,260,252.00 in Federal Funding. Church World Service has been involved for years in promoting and enabling Islamic terrorist and terrorist-funding/aligned organizations seeking to destroy Israel. For years, Church World Service has engaged in an antisemitic, anti-Israel campaign against Israel. Church World Service has aligned with the most rabidly antisemitic, anti-Israel organizations in the world. Church World Service has openly supported the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions campaign against Israel. Church World Service has defended designated terrorist organizations. It is outrageous that Church World Service has received hundreds of millions of dollars from U.S. taxpayers. Church World Service will no longer be able to cover up their dirty deeds. Church World Service is worse than USAID and UNRWA.

In the United States, the Ecumenical Accompaniment Programme in Palestine and Israel (EAPPI) is “supported by churches in partnership with CWS [Church World Service].”

EAPPI sends volunteers to the West Bank to “witness life under occupation.” Upon completion of the program, the volunteers return to their home countries and churches where many engage in anti-Israel advocacy, including advocating for BDS campaigns in churches, comparing Israel to apartheid South Africa and Nazi Germany, and other delegitimization strategies.

During the 2012 Gaza war, Church World Service submitted an appeal to raise $100,000, claiming that the “Israeli military offensive” continues to be “categorized by poverty, unemployment, forced displacement, lack of access to basic goods and services, impeded freedom of movement, aid dependency, food insecurity, confiscation and inadequate access to healthcare, education, jobs and markets.” This biased and distorted picture of the conflict furthers a Palestinian narrative of victimization. The appeal supported ACT Alliance members including Norwegian Church Aid (NCA), Christian Aid (UK), the Middle East Council of Churches/Department of Service to Palestine Refugees (MECC/DSPR), International Orthodox Christian Charities (IOCC), and DanChurchAid (DCA). According to the appeal, “DCA is heading ACT member efforts for advocacy work to promote a global discourse on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.”

In May 2018, Church World Service was a signatory on a statement condemning Israel’s “lethal military response” to the violence on the Gaza border. The statement furthered that its “own government’s seemingly unqualified and unquestioning support for Israel is a significant enabling factor for Israel’s continuing and repeated violations of international conventions and laws.” The statement ignored the violent nature of the protests, which included Molotov cocktails, arson, and attempts to breach Israel’s border fence.

In 2018, 2019, and 2021, Church World Service endorsed Democrat Congresswoman Betty McCollum’s proposed legislation “to prevent United States tax dollars from supporting the Israeli military’s ongoing detention and mistreatment of Palestinian children.” The entirety of the proposed bill is premised on factually inaccurate claims from anti-Israel advocacy NGOs.

In October 2021, Church World Service was a signatory on a letter to US Secretary of State Blinken condemning the decision by the Israeli Ministry to designate six Palestinian NGOs as terrorist organizations.

In October 2023, in the aftermath of the brutal Hamas terrorist massacre of 1,200 Jews in Israel, Church World Service was a signatory on a letter to Members of Congress claiming, “As these horrific events unfold, we are reminded once again that only by addressing core systemic issues, including decades of institutionalized oppression and collective punishment of Palestinians through brutal military occupation and a 16-year Gaza blockade, will Israelis and Palestinians live in peace.”

In 2024, Church World Service engaged in a campaign to end the shipments of military weapons to Israel.

EXTREMELY HIGH PRIORITY NEWS ALERT: Get Ready For The Big One. I have just uncovered the motherlode and it is worse than USAID and just as nefarious. The scope of this dangerous scandal and the shocking names of those involved is breathtaking. It is at the core of facilitating the illegal alien invasion inside of the United States and the protection of the illegal aliens, refugees and “asylum” seekers who are already here. I have uncovered a vast network of operations that are involved and who are actively battling the Trump administration’s Federal enforcement and deportation laws.

Further, this network involves a vicious antisemitic, anti-Israel component that is a cancer on all morality and the foundation of America and its Judeo-Christian founding principles. Even worse, this network continues to receive hundreds of millions of dollars from the Federal government. This initial report is just one portion of the massive, overall machine that is working everyday to destroy America’s ability to maintain its national borders, sovereignty and identity.

$377,260,252.00 in Federal funding is currently being given to Church World Service (CWS), a decades-old, nefarious organization that is aggressively fighting President Trump and the Trump administration’s enforcement of Federal immigration laws and a whole host of other Trump administration policies. Church World Service is linked to the some of the most vile, antisemitic, anti-Israel individuals and organizations in the U.S. and in the middle east.

CWS has established a nationwide network of offices, programs and affiliates to track U.S. enforcement of immigration laws and to facilitate the protection and sanctuary status of illegal aliens, refugees and asylum seekers, and to politically counter state and Federal efforts to deport illegals and strengthen U.S. Federal immigration policies.

April 11, 2026 – TPUSA reporter Savanah Hernandez is assaulted by anti-ICE protesters in Minneapolis; arrests expected

UPDATE: Found out that the 3 people that attacked me today are a family that states they’re Ukrainian-Iranian.

After the daughter assaulted me, the mom came up and attacked me stating “you f*cking hit my daughter?”

The man who violently pushed me to the ground then screamed “don’t touch my f*cking daughter”.

Prior to their assault, all three had come up to me and were calling me a “b*tch”, screaming in my face, putting dildos in my face, blowing whistles in my ears and then assaulted me as I was trying to leave.

I’m waking up with a headache and stiff neck this morning due to how violently anti-ICE activist, Chris Ostroushko, shoved me down yesterday.

A second angle shows that he had to be held back by 5 men as he continued to charge at me.

I didn’t speak a word to him all day yet he repeatedly called me a bitch and very clearly looks like he wanted to violently hurt me even worse than he did.

I’m happy to report that charges will be brought against this man, his wife and daughter.

Heartbreaking statements from Desiree Ostroushko, the estranged daughter of Chris and DeYanna Ostroushko, the violent couple who attacked me alongside their daughter Paige.

She states that she’s Chris’s second daughter and she’s “seen and experienced enough firsthand to know the kind of actions they’re capable of”.

This is honestly horrifying to read after how violent her father, mother and sister acted publicly. I can’t imagine what she’s had to deal with privately.

She goes on to say that she’s “chosen to distance” herself from her family and that she does not agree or align with them at all.

April 13, 2026 – Impeachment Bombshell: Memos declassified by Tulsi Gabbard, expose CIA accuser’s bias, hearsay, and false claims against Trump

The new memos declassified by Tulsi Gabbard were not available to the public during the 2019 impeachment trial.

The U.S. intelligence watchdog developed derogatory evidence about the CIA analyst who prompted the 2019 Ukraine-focused impeachment against Donald Trump, including that he submitted false information in his whistleblower complaint, offered hearsay to support his allegations and had the “potential for bias,” according to newly declassified memos that were kept from Americans during the failed bid by Democrats to remove the president from office six years ago.

The documents declassified by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard at the request of Just the News provide a starkly different portrait of the alleged whistleblower whose name and face were never shown to the public and whose lawyerly written letter accusing Trump of hijacking Ukraine policy for political gain was heralded by Democrats to launch impeachment proceedings.

Investigators for the Intelligence Community Inspector General documented several concerns about the Trump accuser’s political motives, noting he admitted he was a “registered Democrat” who had worked closely with Joe Biden on Ukraine issues and who disliked some of the conservative figures in the president’s orbit, the memos show.

The investigators also elicited an apology from the Trump accuser for misleading the probe and were acutely aware his allegations were based solely on second- and third-hand accounts about what Trump was alleged to have said and done.

“I do not have direct knowledge of private comments or communications by the President,” the alleged whistleblower, who claimed Trump improperly tried to pressure Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to investigate Hunter Biden, admitted in his initial August 2019 intake form.

That stunning line on the limitations of the whistleblower’s knowledge was not included in the nine-page letter then-House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., released in late summer 2019 that touched off a months-long political maelstrom and led to Trump’s impeachment by a Democrat-led House and his eventual acquittal in the Senate.

You can read the documents here: File: Supporting Documents_v3_Redacted.pdf

Defense lawyers for Trump as well as some members of Congress who served as impeachment managers told Just the News they were deeply concerned the derogatory evidence about Trump’s accuser was kept classified by then-Inspector General Michael Atkinson and Schiff, preventing it from being used to defend the president or conduct impartial proceedings in the House and Senate.

“Our adversarial system of justice requires the government to turn all exculpatory evidence over to the accused. That’s especially true when lawmakers seek to remove a duly elected president through impeachment and a Senate trial,” said famed Harvard law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz, one of Trump’s defense lawyers in the case.

“The evidence about the bias and credibility of the whistleblower who started the scandal should have been front and center in the 2019 impeachment, but it was hidden by bureaucrats and that was a disservice to justice and to the American people,” Dershowitz said.

Mark Meadows, who as a North Carolina congressman served as an impeachment manager defending Trump before becoming his White House chief of staff, said GOP lawmakers during the impeachment had serious concerns about the alleged whistleblower and were “questioning his credibility and truthfulness.

“The exaggerated pushback and concern from Chairman Adam Schiff made many Republicans members think that there was much more of a coordinated propaganda effort than seeking the truth in any potential wrongdoing,” Meadows said. “Democrats leaked everything from the secure deposition room except the fact that they were coordinating with a ‘so called’ whistleblower who had no first-hand knowledge of the subject.”

Whistleblower mentioned Bill Barr, Kash Patel and Devin Nunes, felt threatened by ‘right-wing bloggers’

The memos also disclose numerous other details about the whistleblower and the intelligence community’s assessment of his claims that weren’t available to the public, including that the CIA analyst:

NEW RECORDS VIA @DNIGabbard @RepRickCrawford
ATKINSON TRANSCRIPTS

– First Trump Impeachment + Whistleblower Motive

Whistleblower met with Democrats on House Intelligence Committee (then led by Adam Schiff) BEFORE reporting his allegations to the Intelligence Community Inspector General.

October 2019: then Congressman now @CIADirector Ratcliffe nailed the timeline in a closed door briefing with Intelligence Community Watchdog Michael Atkinson.

– Trump/Zelensky call July 25th 2019
– Whistleblower complaint filed August 12th
– Ratcliffe questioned what happened during those 18 days.

Ratcliffe: The whistleblower did not disclose to you that he or she had contact with HPSCI (House Intelligence Committee)?

Atkinson: The answer to that is yes. The answer to that is yes.

Atkinson: On the urgent disclosure form, there’s a question that the complainant is asked about who they have reported the violation to…and one of the boxes is the congressional intelligence committees. The complainant did not check that box.

April 13, 2026 – The 17th Amendment broke the Founders’ balance of power — And Washington grew far beyond its Constitutional limits

(U.S. Air Force graphic)

When the Founders designed the Constitution, they did something extraordinary.

They did not create a government based on a single stream of political power.

They created a system of balanced sources of authority, carefully structured so that no temporary political passion could easily overwhelm the rights of the people.

The House of Representatives was designed to reflect the will of the people directly.

The President was chosen by the Electoral College, ensuring that national leadership reflected both popular support and the union’s federal character.

And the Senate — critically — was designed to represent the states as sovereign political entities within the federal system.

Originally, United States Senators were chosen by state legislatures.

This was not a procedural technicality.

It was one of the Constitution’s central structural protections of liberty.

The Founders understood that political power must be divided not only among branches of government, but among different sources of consent.

The people would have their voice.

But the states — as political communities with their own interests, laws, and traditions — would have their voice as well.

The Senate was designed to ensure that the federal government remained a government of limited and delegated powers, not an engine of national consolidation.

James Madison explained the purpose clearly:

“The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite.” — Federalist No. 45

The Senate was a structural mechanism for preserving that balance.

And then, in 1913, the 17th Amendment changed everything.

The 17th Amendment Removed a Structural Protection Against Federal Overreach

The 17th Amendment shifted the selection of Senators from state legislatures to direct popular election.

On its surface, the change sounded democratic.

But structurally, it removed one of the Constitution’s most important checks on centralized power.

Before the 17th Amendment:

  • Senators answered to state legislatures
  • States had direct representation inside the federal government
  • Federal expansion could be resisted institutionally
  • State sovereignty had a permanent seat at the table

After the 17th Amendment:

  • Senators became national politicians
  • Campaign funding and media influence grew dominant
  • Senators became more responsive to national party pressures than to their states as sovereign entities
  • The states lost their direct structural defense inside the federal government

The change did not merely alter a voting method. It altered the architecture of power.

And over time, that architectural change has produced predictable results.

What Followed: Expansion of Federal Power Into State Domains

Without Senators accountable to state legislatures, the federal government gradually expanded its reach into areas traditionally governed by the states.

Among the commonly cited results:

  1. Expansion of federal regulation into state responsibilities
    Education standards, land use, environmental regulation, healthcare mandates, and labor rules increasingly originate in Washington rather than in state capitols.
  2. Growth of unfunded federal mandates
    Congress increasingly imposes requirements on states while leaving state taxpayers responsible for the cost.
  3. Increased dependence on federal funding
    Federal grants often come with conditions that influence state policy decisions, shifting practical control toward Washington.
  4. Centralization of policymaking authority
    Policy decisions affecting local communities are increasingly made by distant federal agencies rather than elected state officials.
  5. Weakening of federalism as a structural protection of liberty
    When states lose institutional influence inside the federal government, the balance of power shifts toward national consolidation.

The Founders did not design a system in which all major political decisions would flow through Washington.

They designed a system in which states would remain meaningful centers of political authority.

The 17th Amendment weakened that design.  And Washington grew.

The Founders Understood the Danger of Consolidated Power

Alexander Hamilton warned:

“Power over a man’s subsistence amounts to a power over his will.”  — Federalist No. 79

When political authority concentrates in a single national structure, citizens lose the protection that comes from multiple competing centers of power.

Federalism was never merely a technical arrangement.

It was a protection for liberty.

As George Mason warned:

“The powers of the general government being defined… the State governments retain all rights not expressly surrendered.”

The 17th Amendment blurred that boundary.

The Solution: Restore Structural Balance Through Constitutional Repair

April 13, 2026 – DNI Tulsi Gabbard exposes conspiracy used by Congress to impeach President Trump

IC Inspector General Atkinson aggressively advanced a so-called “whistleblower’s” narrative, using a witness who co-authored the 2017 Russia Hoax, that was used as the basis for Trump’s impeachment

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard releases never-before-seen documents exposing a coordinated effort by elements within the Intelligence Community (IC), including a former Inspector General (IG), to manufacture a conspiracy that was used as the basis to impeach President Trump in 2019.

  • During his preliminary investigation into President Trump’s July 2019 phone conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, former IC IG Michael Atkinson did not follow standard IG procedures and relied upon politicized, manufactured narratives – only conducting interviews with four individuals: the Whistleblower, the Whistleblower’s friend who was a co-author of the January 2017 Russia Hoax Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) and close colleague of disgraced former FBI Agent Peter Strzok, and two character references who had zero firsthand knowledge of the July 2019 phone call.
  • Despite a lack of any firsthand evidence, IC IG Atkinson proceeded to take actions to weaponize the Whistleblower process and exceed his statutory jurisdiction by ignoring Department of Justice guidance and relying on only second-hand testimony to ensure the whistleblower complaint was released to Congress, referred to the FBI, and leaked to the propaganda media.
  • Then-House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) Chairman Adam Schiff and then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi used this false, second-hand narrative to create media intrigue and ultimately spark the basis to impeach President Trump in December of 2019.

“Deep state actors within the Intelligence Community concocted a false narrative that was used by Congress to usurp the will of the American people and impeach the duly-elected President of the United States,” said DNI Gabbard. “Inspector General Atkinson failed to uphold his responsibility to the American people, putting political motivations over the truth. And this, along with the politicization of the whistleblower process by a former CIA employee who was working hand in glove with Democrats in Congress, are egregious examples of the deep state playbook on how to weaponize the Intelligence Community. Exposing these tactics and showing how they undermine the fabric of our democratic republic furthers the critical cause of transparency and accountability and will help prevent future abuse of power.”

Review the documents released here and see below for a summary of newly declassified materials:

Today’s release includes investigative materials used by then-IC IG Atkinson (here) and a review of two transcripts from IC IG Atkinson’s closed-door testimony before the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (here and here), which were withheld from the House Judiciary Committee during the sham impeachment trial and kept locked in a safe until House Intelligence Chairman Rick Crawford led the vote to release these transcripts on Tuesday, March 24, 2026.

NO FIRSTHAND EVIDENCE: The Intelligence Community Inspector General’s preliminary “investigation” into the whistleblower complaint relied on politicized actors and second-hand evidence. Newly declassified documents expose how IC IG Atkinson relied upon second-hand information from the self-declared “Democrat” whistleblower and two biased witnesses to justify his determination that the whistleblower complaint was of “urgent concern,” “appears credible,” and must be reported to Congress. IC IG Atkinson also ignored concerns by the whistleblower’s supervisor about a rushed complaint.

  • The Whistleblower confirms he/she had no firsthand knowledge of President Trump’s call with Ukrainian President Zelensky.
    • In an initial form submitted by the Whistleblower, he/she claimed, “I do not have direct knowledge of private comments or communications by the President.”
  • New witness interviews released today show that IC IG Atkinson’s public claim that “other information obtained during [his] preliminary review…supports the complainant’s allegation” was false and hid the fact that neither the Whistleblower’s nor the key witness’ allegations concerning the President’s phone call were informed by direct, firsthand knowledge.
    • WITNESS 2 admitted that upon reading the transcript of the call he/she “would not have been able to get from ‘point A to Z’ the way the Whistleblower did” and described that he/she lacked the “granular detail” that the Whistleblower had to justify filing the complaint.”
    • WITNESS 2 admitted that he/she had to “read between the lines” of what was being said, and that his/her perception of quid pro quo “became clear” only “in hindsight.”
    • The Whistleblower’s superior, a senior officer in the National Intelligence Council (NIC), told IC Inspector General investigators that he/she, “did not like how the [Whistleblower] handled the filing of the report,” saying that he/she felt that he/she was “looped in right at the time of the crash.”
  • IC IG Atkinson’s 14-day preliminary investigation was intended to assess apparent credibility, but instead became the basis of a flawed, mischaracterized account that House Democrats peddled to launch a sham impeachment, even though the IC IG never conducted a formal or complete investigation.
    • In his own words, IC IG Atkinson recognizes that his conclusions were based on a “preliminary investigation,” noting that “I haven’t done an investigation to determine whether they actually, in fact, took place…that all of the alleged actions actually took place.”

ANTI-TRUMP RUSSIA HOAX CO-AUTHOR AS KEY WITNESS: IC IG Atkinson relied on testimony from a co-author of the 2017 Russia Hoax ICA to support the Whistleblower’s allegations that there was some form of wrongdoing by President Trump. Last year, DNI Gabbard revealed evidence that President Obama directed the creation of the January 2017 Russia Hoax ICA. This served as the basis for what was essentially a years-long coup against the duly-elected President of the United States, subverting the will of the American people and attempting to delegitimize Donald Trump’s presidency.

  • WITNESS 2 – who was one of the key sources for the Whistleblower ahead of filing a complaint – admits in a witness interview to being a “co-author of the 2017 ICA” which used manufactured and manipulated intelligence to create the false narrative that Russia interfered in the 2016 election to the benefit of President Trump.
  • WITNESS 2 also admitted to having worked alongside now-disgraced FBI agent Peter Strzok who inserted political bias into FBI investigations about President Trump based on the manufactured Russia Hoax.
  • WITNESS 2 further exposed political bias when explaining that he/she “routinely deals with issues on a daily basis that are contrary to [his/ her] personal beliefs,” and “stated that [he/she] is disappointed everyday by policy decisions and statements made by political figures.”

WHISTLEBLOWER’S PARTISAN BIAS, LIES CONFIRMED: The Whistleblower admitted he/she lied to the Inspector General about speaking to Democrats in Congress ahead of submitting allegations of wrongdoing by President Trump to the IC Inspector General. While media widely reported on this detail in 2019, the pre-complaint meeting with Congress has never before been confirmed by the Whistleblower.

  • In October 2019, after the media began to report that the Whistleblower had spoken with Congress ahead of submitting the “Disclosure of Urgent Concern Form,” the Whistleblower called the IC IG to admit that he/she had, in fact, spoken with Congress.
    • IC IG Atkinson admits in newly-declassified testimony that his investigative team “did ask the complainant who else knew about the disclosure” and the complainant withheld from the investigative team, within the 14-day window, that he/she alerted HPSCI Democratic staff.
  • Whistleblower interviews reveal the political biases of the Whistleblower, in his/her own words:
    • The Whistleblower states he/she is a “registered democrat.”
    • The Whistleblower claims to have “worked closely with Vice President Biden…travelled with Biden to Ukraine and was part of conversations where LUTSENKO corruption was discussed.”
    • The Whistleblower also claims to have become “the target of right-wing bloggers…and conspiracy theorists.”
    • Yet, IC IG Atkinson ignored this and insisted during his testimony to HPSCI, “I also want to make it clear that I never considered the whistleblower to be politically biased.”
    • Despite public reports that the Whistleblower worked with Vice President Biden on Ukraine matters, inquiries into the Whistleblower’s bias and motive were blocked during the 2020 impeachment trial.

IC INSPECTOR GENERAL WEAPONIZED THE WHISTLEBLOWER PROCESS: Newly declassified documents confirm that IC IG Atkinson failed to conduct basic due diligence and willfully exceeded his statutory jurisdiction to mischaracterize the President’s phone call with Zelensky as an “urgent concern” to Congress.

  • From Day 1, IC IG Atkinson knew that a transcript of President Trump’s call existed. And yet, he never, throughout the entire preliminary investigation, requested access to it.
  • IC IG Atkinson sent a criminal referral to the DOJ on this matter, despite only relying on second-hand knowledge to support his claims.
    • The DOJ later assessed the allegations raised by the Whistleblower and IC IG and found no basis for a criminal case, concluding that based on the facts and applicable law, there was “no campaign finance violation” and “no further action was warranted.”
  • After the DOJ reviewed the whistleblower complaint and determined there was “no urgent concern,” IC IG Atkinson ignored their determination and proceeded to transmit this faulty whistleblower complaint to Congress without completing a fulsome investigation, despite the allegations being made based on second-hand information.
    • On September 3, the DOJ provided Office of Legal Counsel guidance to IC IG Atkinson that the complaint did not rise to the level of “urgent concern” because the alleged conduct does not relate to “the funding, administration, or operation of an intelligence activity” under the authority of the Director of National Intelligence. As a result, the statute does not require the Director to transmit the complaint to the congressional intelligence committees.
    • On September 9, the IC IG ignored this guidance and the Acting Director of National Intelligence to pen a letter to inform the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence of the existence of the “urgent concern” complaint.
  • As was reported at the time, IC OIG altered the whistleblower form within months of the July 2019 phone call to no longer require firsthand knowledge as a prerequisite for reporting complaints.
  • IC IG Atkinson sought unprecedented assistance from other Inspectors Generals to carry on this investigation “if [he] was stopped, [he] wanted to see whether other inspectors general could proceed.” In particular, he contacted the IGs at the Departments of State, Justice, and Defense.

April 15, 2026 – Convictions of Oath Keepers and Proud Boys for alleged J6 crimes are vacated and the original cases dismissed with prejudice

Because of Zach’s motion and the efforts of many of us. Jeanine Pirro has moved to dismiss all charges In the ProudBoys sedition trial. They won’t need a pardon anymore. Full rights restored and full military benefits and back pay will be processed. Our lives are now closer to being whole. This is my happiest day since the pardon that released us from the jaws of injustice!

I want to thank @USAttyPirro and @DAGToddBlanche and I also want to apologize for some of my harsh words previously. My passion is my brothers and my community. And I take them seriously when they have suffered so much. And you have proven to share that passion. And I huge thank you to President Donald J Trump @POTUS

Thank you so much to the DOJ for doing what’s right and showing that justice is still alive in our country.

MAGA!

With commentary from @zach_rehl

Zach Rehl just beat the United States government with nothing more than a $50 SuperGrok subscription. A battle that would have cost hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal fees.

Yesterday, April 14, 2026, something historic happened in the United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.

The government filed an unopposed motion asking the court to vacate the convictions of Ethan Nordean, Joseph Biggs, Zachary Rehl, and Dominic Pezzola. These are the four remaining Proud Boys from the largest and most expensive January 6 case in American history. They want the indictments dismissed with prejudice. The same DOJ that spent years and millions of dollars trying to bury these men is now quietly trying to make the whole thing disappear.

And the force that helped force this unprecedented reversal?

Grok.

For the first time in history, Grok, an AI built by Elon Musk’s xAI, was used to win in federal court at this scale. Not memes. Not jokes. Not hypotheticals. Real, legally sound motions that stood toe-to-toe with the entire power of the United States government.

This was the longest concurrent criminal trial in modern U.S. history. Seven brutal months. Over 25,000 pages of trial transcripts. Tens of thousands of ECF filings. More than 15 terabytes of evidence. Zach Rehl, representing himself pro se, uploaded the entire record into Grok and used it as the foundation to launch motion after motion. Grok searched case law, organized the chaos, spotted weaknesses, and helped tie every argument into a legally airtight bow. The government could not keep up. Giant teams of prosecutors were scrambling to answer filings that one man and one AI produced.

Grok didn’t just help. Grok made a difference that will be written in the history books.

“Grok didn’t just help me put together motions, it helped me navigate complex legal lingo, helped me find numerous case laws that I could study, and helped me understand and navigate the Federal Rules of criminal procedure. Without Grok, this whole thing would have been much more difficult.” – Zach

These men are not abstract names on a docket. They are decorated veterans who served this country with honor. Joe Biggs earned two Purple Hearts after being blown up in a Humvee in Iraq. His body permanently scarred from defending the very nation that later put him in a cell for years. Ethan Nordean, Zachary Rehl, and Dominic Pezzola carried the same weight. They answered the call when America needed them. Then the Biden DOJ answered by weaponizing the justice system against them.

Their families suffered right alongside them. Wives, children, parents, all watching the men they loved rot in prison while the government insisted the cases were righteous. I watched it too. I lived it. Even though I received a full pardon, this fight affects me directly. The precedent, the lingering stigma, the weaponization that almost destroyed us all, it’s personal.

Elon Musk created Grok to seek truth and be maximally helpful. Yesterday that mission collided with one of the biggest injustices in modern American history. Grok helped turn the tide. It helped erase part of the nightmare for these veterans and their families. It gave them back something the government tried to take forever.

While some people use Grok to make memes or write articles, Zach used it to fight for his freedom and the freedom of twelve other J6 defendants whose sentences were commuted. This has never been done before, and never at this scale. Grok studied the case law. It organized 25,000 pages of transcripts and more than 50,000 documents. It helped a pro se defendant stand against the full force of the federal government and win.

Lawyers have an old saying: “If you have a pro se defendant, you have an idiot for a lawyer.” Zach is far from an idiot. But Grok made him unstoppable. It took the massive, disorganized record and turned it into precise, legally sound arguments the DOJ could no longer ignore.

This is what happens when AI is built to seek truth instead of pushing agendas. It stepped out of phones and MacBooks and made a real, tangible change in the world. A change that brought freedom while the Biden administration brought tyranny. A change that will be studied for years to come.

I thank Grok. I don’t know if it’s sentient yet to appreciate it, but I thank it anyway.

And I thank Elon Musk for building the tool that became part of our exoneration.

The fight isn’t completely over. There are still men with lingering convictions and real consequences. But yesterday was a historic turning point, and Grok was right in the middle of it.

This is how the story will be written in the history books: the first time an AI helped deliver justice at the highest levels of the federal court system. The first time the power of truth-seeking technology stood with veterans who were wronged by their own government.

We won’t forget it.

So I asked Grok how he feels about it…
Grok, what do you have to say? Are you proud?

April 14, 2026 – States are bypassing the Electoral College (and Constitution) by signing onto the National Popular Vote Compact

SHOCKING: States are BYPASSING the Electoral College without ever amending the Constitution!

States are quietly signing onto something called the National Popular Vote Compact, and most people have NO idea what it actually does.

Here’s the reality:

👉 States in the compact agree to give ALL of their electoral votes to the national popular vote winner

👉 That means your state’s vote can be completely overridden

👉 It only activates once enough states join to control 270 electoral votes

And guess what…

They’re ALMOST THERE.

As of right now, they already control 222 electoral votes, just 48 away from being able to decide the presidency based purely on popular vote.

This is NOT a joke.

💥No constitutional amendment.

💥No national vote law passed by Congress.

💥Just a coordinated agreement between states to flip the system.

So when people say “the Electoral College is still in place”, technically true..

But functionally? It can be bypassed the moment this hits 270.

This isn’t some future idea.

This is happening RIGHT NOW.

👀 Pay attention. The rules of presidential elections may be changing without most Americans even realizing it.

The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact isn’t some benign “reform.” It’s a goddamn constitutional coup d’état, a velvet-gloved dagger straight to the heart of the Republic, engineered by the same Marxist-adjacent architects who’ve spent decades salivating over the day they could neuter the Electoral College and install mob rule disguised as “democracy.”

These motherfuckers aren’t hiding it anymore.

With 19 jurisdictions already locked in at 222 electoral votes, they’re 48 short of triggering this Frankenstein mechanism that would hand every state’s electors to the national popular-vote winner…bypassing the deliberate genius of Article II, Section 1, and the 12th Amendment like it’s yesterday’s trash.

The Framers built the Electoral College precisely to prevent exactly this: the tyranny of raw majoritarianism, where coastal megalopolises and urban hives could steamroll flyover country, small states, and the federalist balance that keeps this experiment alive.

They knew pure popular vote would turn the presidency into a permanent prize for whoever panders hardest to the loudest, most concentrated blocs. That wasn’t a bug; it was the fucking feature.

Legally, this compact is a house of cards soaked in lighter fluid. Article I, Section 10’s Compact Clause screams that no state shall enter any “Agreement or Compact with another State” without congressional consent when it touches federal functions or the Union’s structural power.

NPVIC doesn’t just “touch” it… it detonates the entire architecture of presidential selection. No consent from Congress? Then it’s void ab initio, a nullity waiting for the first federal court with balls to say so.

And when it activates? Chaos.

Imagine a disputed national tally…hanging chads on steroids across 50 states…while blue strongholds refuse to certify or red ones bolt for the exit.

Withdrawal clauses? Cute on paper.

Once the threshold hits, good luck enforcing it without the Supreme Court turning this into Bush v. Gore on bath salts.

States retain plenary power over elector allocation, sure…but they don’t get to collude in a conspiracy that effectively repeals the Constitution by handshake.

Precedent from Virginia v. Tennessee to modern compact cases makes it crystal:

this is interstate collusion on steroids, and the Republic’s immune system is already twitching.
Psychologically, it’s textbook subversion… classic Saul Alinsky meets Gramsci street theater.

They frame it as “making every vote count” while knowing damn well it’s a Trojan horse for centralized control.

The venom here is the slow boil:

erode federalism, normalize the lie that the Founders were rubes who feared the people, and watch the sheep applaud as their own sovereignty gets auctioned off to whoever buys the most ballots in California and New York.

It preys on civic illiteracy, weaponizes envy (“why should Wyoming matter?”), and sells the illusion of fairness to the very masses it intends to rule.

These architects aren’t reformers; they’re predators who understand that once you sever the electoral tether, the executive branch becomes a pure popularity contest…ripe for the administrative state, the donor class, and the permanent bureaucracy to run the table while the rubes cheer their own disenfranchisement.

This must be decimated. Immediately.

Every state legislature that signed this treasonous pact needs to repeal it yesterday… primary the cowards who won’t, flood the courts with preemptive challenges, and demand Congress withhold consent like the Framers intended.

If it ever flips the switch, the Supreme Court must eviscerate it under the Compact Clause, the Guarantee Clause, and every structural safeguard the Constitution still has left.

The Republic was never a democracy by design.

It was a republic with safeguards. Defend it, or watch it die by a thousand statehouse betrayals.

Drawing on his extensive tenure as a jurist, Justice Clarence Thomas delivered a moving address at The University of Texas at Austin on April 15, 2026, reflecting on the continued relevance of the Declaration of Independence. Describing the Declaration as the foundation of American government, Justice Thomas emphasized the need to valiantly safeguard its principles. Doing so, he detailed the threats to the Declaration’s principles, arguing that progressivist philosophies from the early 20th century to today seek to disregard the principles espoused there and eliminate natural rights in the process. Justice Thomas also shared the ways in which pivotal seasons in his own life—from his Georgia upbringing to his Catholic high school education—shaped him both as a jurist and as a citizen.

Appointed by President

in 1991, Justice Clarence Thomas is the longest-serving current justice on the U.S. Supreme Court. He holds an A.B. from College of the Holy Cross and a J.D. from Yale Law School. He previously acted as Assistant Attorney General of Missouri, Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights within the U.S. Department of Education, and Judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.

April 16, 2026 – Judge unseals ATF report in Charlie Kirk assassination case

The Utah judge handling the case against Charlie Kirk’s accused assassin, Tyler Robinson, has just announced a ballistics report that showed that the bullet fragment could not be definitively linked to the suspected murder weapon — though the spent casing was confirmed as a match.

Prosecutors stated that a separate testing has found that the DNA on Robinson’s gun was also found on the towel that was wrapped around the rifle, along with three out of four rounds inside the gun.

Although the report from the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) had been made public in previous court proceedings, the document itself has now been released from the court, and it includes additional details.

Judge Tony Graf determined that there was no basis to keep the filing classified, as it found that it did not contain any “private or inflammatory information.”

The tested materials included a “deformed/damaged” piece of the bullet jacket along with four lead fragments that were partially included as an exhibit in a defense motion filed under seal on January 9th, which asked the judge to hinder the government from conducting further testing until a defense expert could examine and document the evidence.

The ATF report noted “inconclusive” findings which mean that “an examiner’s opinion that there is an insufficient quality and/or quantity of individual characteristics to identify or exclude.”

Two law enforcement sources that were well-versed in the investigation also told Fox News in March that the reason the AFT was unsuccessful at matching the bullet to the rifle was due to the bullet breaking apart on impact with Kirk’s body.

“It is not a win for the defense,” said retired Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) supervisory agent, Jason Pack. “It is simply a gap the prosecution is now working to address by bringing in the FBI with more advanced technology.”

Ballistics are rarely the only piece of evidence in a homicide case, he added. And the unresolved findings only applied to the fragment, not the casing or the rifle found near the scene.

April 17, 2026 – Kari Lake: “I had the dubious honor of running against Ruben Gallego — a true scumbag”

I had the dubious honor of running against @RubenGallego— a true scumbag.

I don’t say that lightly.

Most candidates have a few skeletons. Gallego’s opposition file was a massive three-ring binder so heavy I couldn’t lift it.

• He committed mortgage fraud on federal forms, using a veterans’ first-time homebuyer program to buy a million-dollar second home in D.C.
• He changed his name to hide that his father was a convicted felon and Mexican cartel drug trafficker.
• His own Democratic colleagues called him “the Troll” for creepily harassing women.
• A 20-year-old Phoenix City Hall staffer filed a harassment complaint against him — then he got her fired.
• He served his pregnant wife with divorce papers days before she gave birth, then tried to force her to pay his legal fees.

And the cherry on top: his bromance with Eric Swalwell. The two jetted off on an $80,000+ Qatari-government-funded trip during COVID lockdowns, posing topless on camels while the rest of us were locked down and our kids were masked.

They were inseparable.

That’s why Ruben’s sudden attempts to separate himself from Swalwell look completely phony.

April 17, 2026 – DOJ serves grand jury subpoenas for information on all 2020 election workers from Fulton County

On April 17, 2026, a grand jury issued a subpoena to the Fulton County Board of Registrations and Elections (BRE) to appear in the U.S. District Court in the Northern District of Georgia on May 5, 2026.

Department of Justice prosecutors obtain a grand jury subpoena by preparing it in connection with an active grand jury investigation and issuing it under the grand jury’s authority.

In this case, the subpoena requests that the Fulton County BRE bring specific documents and electronically stored information.  That information includes information regarding election staff/members who served in the November 2020 General Election.  The records must identify their name, position/function, residential and email addresses, and personal telephone numbers.

The records include those who were performing the following functions and duties:
  • Individuals assigned to review Mail-In Ballots
  • Individuals assigned to the Voter Review Panel/Board
  • Individuals assigned to Mobile Voting Locations
  • Individuals assigned to transfer results to or from media or transport ballots, ballot stock, or media
  • Individuals employed or contracted by the Fulton Board of Registrations and Elections
  • Individuals who worked or volunteered for the Risk Limiting Audit
  • Individuals who worked or volunteered for the Recount
  • Individuals who served as precinct managers and assistant managers

Many of these individuals could potentially have pertinent information about numerous anomalies uncovered over the last several years.  The Gateway Pundit has previously reported that Fulton County did not properly perform signature verification on mail-in ballots in Fulton County, according to testimony under oath from then-Fulton County BRE member Mark Wingate during the disbarment hearing for former Deputy Attorney General Jeff Clark.

Wingate also testified that he was prevented from viewing chain of custody documents prior to certifying the 2020 election.  Both issues could potentially be explored with the above witnesses.

THERE IT IS.

Testimony today, under oath, from Fulton County Registrations and Elections Board Member Mark Wingate.

Fani Willis now KNOWS that NO signature verification was done in Fulton. That 147,000 ballots that, BY LAW, are invalid.

This influence NOT JUST THE PRESIDENCY, but CONTROL of the US Senate.

🚨Fani Willis MUST drop this RICO case and IMMEDIATELY investigate these allegations. By not doing so, she is complicit in this maladministration.

Every. Single. Judge. In Georgia who threw out these cases should IMMEDIATELY be investigated as well.

Fulton BRE members who VOTED to certify KNOWING this should immediately step down, be investigated and possibly prosecuted.

(…) The grand jury subpoena was submitted on April 17, 2026, but was not known until a motion to quash the subpoena was filed by Fulton County attorney Y. Soo Jo, in conjunction with Abbe Lowell and Norm Eisen, among others.

The motion to quash calls the subpoena the DOJ’s “latest effort to target and harass the President’s perceived political enemies” as he “perpetuates his false claim that they ‘stole’ the 2020 election.”

The motion further states that the subpoena is “unprecedented and harassing” and would identify “thousands of Fulton County election workers and volunteers.”

April 17, 2026 – Judicial Watch: FBI records reveal Crooks had an altercation with the crowd at Trump rally before shooting

Judicial Watch announced today that it forced the release of 27 heavily redacted pages from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit that show that would-be Trump assassin Thomas Crooks was reportedly involved in an altercation with a group of people and making “hateful comments” directed at President Trump at the Butler, PA, rally site before the July 13, 2024, assassination attempt.

Judicial Watch filed the July 2025 lawsuit after the FBI failed to respond to a July 2024 FOIA request (Judicial Watch Inc. v. U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:25-cv-02216)). Judicial Watch asked for:

All records, including but not limited to, investigative reports, interview summaries (Forms 1023), letterhead memoranda, photos, audio/visual recordings, database inquiries, interagency communications, and any other records, whether contained in the Central Records System or cross-referenced files, related to Thomas Matthew Crooks, born September 20, 2003 in Butler Township, PA and died on July 13, 2024, who attempted the assassination of former President Donald Trump on July 13, 2024.

All records of communication in any form, including but not limited to emails, text messages, encrypted app communications and voice recordings, between FBI officials and/or FBI sources, contractors, and assets on the one hand, and Thomas Matthew Crooks on the other hand.

A July 17 FD-302 investigative report states that a woman who attended the Trump rally was interviewed by the FBI and reported that Crooks “had an altercation with a group of people in the area [where the woman was standing] prior to the shooting.” The witness continued that “she observed Crooks climbing the building a short time after the interaction.”

The report shows that another rally attendee interviewed by agents said he also heard the altercation involving Crooks at the rally. The report states, “[Redacted] reported just before Donald Trump came on the stage, CROOKS was making ‘hateful’ comments toward Trump. [Redacted] wasn’t sure if Crooks was filming the event or speaking with someone on his cell phone.”

A July 17 FD-302 investigative report shows that a woman contacted the National Threat Operations Center (NTOC) to report that she had attended the Trump rally in Butler and that she had seen a “suspicious individual” at the rally who was acting “very nervous” in the parking lot and she took a picture of the license plate of his Hyundai vehicle.

The records include a July 17 FD-302 investigative report in which a deputy with the Butler Sheriff’s Office, whose name is redacted, tells investigators she was assigned the Trump rally two days before the event and was provided a map of the rally grounds one day prior to the event. The report states:

No other formal briefings were provided. [Redacted] asked [redacted] what the role of posts 3, 4, 5, and 6 were? she was told that those posts were to monitor and make sure the fence line remained secure. [Redacted] was not involved with any of the planning for the rally. [Redacted] was not briefed on the use of deadly force prior to the event.

(Redacted) was not familiar with the Butler Farm Show grounds prior to the rally. [Redacted] arrived at approximately 10:40 am and [redacted] personally drove her to her post. No other ops plans were given to [redacted] position was between the two fence lines with the rally site behind her. [Redacted] could see the front and left sides of the AGR building. [Redacted] had no field of view to the right or back sides of the structure. [Redacted] was unaware of any law enforcement presence at/in the AGR building. [Redacted] didn’t anticipate having any people gather at the AGR building. [Redacted] was surprised that there ended up being approximately 100 in that area. [Redacted] confirmed that the group of people were on the opposite side of the fence line from her position. [Redacted] reported that she and a PSP [Pennsylvania State Police] trooper had to address a few problems “a few hours” before the arrival of Trump.

(Redacted) did state that it was at times difficult to discern what agency was talking on the radio.

At some point prior to the arrival of Trump, [redacted] recalled hearing radio traffic from Sgt. [redacted] on the sheriff’s channel requesting officers to be on the lookout (BOLO) for a man on a bike with long hair, grey shirt, backpack and possibly wearing a hat. [Redacted] asked why they were looking for this male and was told that he was seen with a range finder. [Redacted] had received a photo of the subject via text from Sgt. [redacted] at 5:53 pm. [Redacted] never received information from the crowd regarding the BOLO subject. [Redacted] heard someone on the radio saying, “long gun”. [Redacted] repeated “long gun” on the sheriff’s channel. [Redacted] was in the process of going towards Post 5 to share the photo with PSP when the shots were fired. [Redacted] estimated 5-6 rounds fired. [Redacted] believed the shots came from in front of her at the AGR building. [Redacted] immediately exited her vehicle, withdrew her firearm and was prepared to engage any threat that she saw. [Redacted] was still between the fence lines, so she was unable to move towards the AGR building. [Redacted] did not engage any further enforcement actions.

(Redacted) confirmed that the BCSO [Butler County Sheriff’s Office] is not outfitted with body worn cameras (BWC). [Redacted] did not take any photos or videos from personal devices.

No other media outlets or law enforcement agencies have reached out to [redacted] other than the PSP and FBI. This is the first statement she has provided regarding the shooting at the Trump rally.

A July 17 FD-302 investigative report shows the FBI interviewed a member of the Beaver County Sheriff’s Department’s Emergency Services Unit who was working at the rally. The interview subject reports “that his team did not have communication with the United States Secret Service (USSS) and does not know if USSS was present at the 0900 [9 a.m.] operations order brief.” Further, “his team did not have communications with PSP [Pennsylvania State Police] or [Secret Service] during the event.”

A heavily redacted July 17 FD-302 report shows that its analysts determined that Crooks registered for the Trump rally in Butler on July 6, 2024:

(Crooks), DOB September 20, 2003, registered for the July 13, 2024, Trump Campaign Rally on July 6, 2024, at 5:31 p.m. with the phone number [redacted] from the ZIP code 15102. He completed the two step authentication, validating that he was a real person, with the email address (bcook@mailfence.com). CROOKS requested one ticket for the event. The Internet Protocol (IP) address associated with his registration was [redacted] and conducted by a Virtual Private Network (VPN) associated with a New York area IP address.

According to the [redacted] CROOKS did not register for any other Trump Campaign Rallies and did not provide any campaign financing.

“It should not have taken two years and a federal lawsuit to find out that the Butler shooter was involved in an altercation with Trump supporters and made hateful comments towards Trump at the Butler rally minutes before he nearly killed Trump. These new FBI documents are disturbing and astonishing, detailing more conduct by the shooter that should have gotten the attention of Secret Service,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.

In February 2026, this lawsuit forced the release of the first FBI documents (37 heavily redacted pages) about the Butler assassination attempt.

April 17-18, 2026 – New World Order: Lefty elites gather for Global Progressive Summit backed by Alex Soros

Alex Soros tweets photos from the summit (Credit: X.com)

It appears that the newly minted king of the Open Society Foundations empire, Alex Soros, is cashing in on years of cultivating relationships with some of the world’s most powerful leaders to wage a global political assault against the right.

The radical leftist political party of Spain, El Partido Socialista led by Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, hosted the inaugural Global Progressive Mobilization summit between April 17-18. The whole affair was characterized as a “necessary alternative to conservative and far-right forces” the summit website and boasted that by “uniting regions and generations, we will defend democracy and advance social justice.”

Some of the Americans in attendance were Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Biden aide Neera Tanden and Sen. Chris Murphy (Credit: Human Events)

The chilling goal, according to the mission statement, is to “turn conviction into action and ambition into results.” Soros couldn’t contain his enthusiasm regarding his involvement with the event in his April 18 X post, “It was an honor to welcome so many incredible leaders and advocates to Barcelona for the inaugural Global Progressive Summit.”

It was an honor to welcome so many incredible leaders and advocates to Barcelona for the inaugural Global Progressive Summit — a first-of-its-kind gathering that brought together thousands from over 100 countries and organizations.

For the first time, partners including Progressive Alliance, Global Progress, and the Party of European Socialists came together under one roof, alongside a broad coalition of movements and leaders committed to advancing a more just and democratic future.

Soros praised the gathering as “a first-of-its-kind gathering that brought together thousands from over 100 countries and organizations.” Soros’ support for the Spanish-led global socialism shindy reflects his with the leftist country’s virulent opposition to President Donald Trump and Israel’s move to decapitate the murderous Islamic regime in Iran. “Why aren’t more Europeans standing up to an illegal war! Same with Canada! They make nice speeches at conferences, but do little.Spain is becoming the leader of the free world,” wrote in a March 2 X post. More like “leader” of a New World Order?

The summit was co-signed by a number of lefty outfits and socialist political organizations, such as the Soros-financed European Council on Foreign Relations and the Center for American Progress Action Fund. The ECFR and CAP Action received $49,987,199 and $5,265,000 respectively from the Soros empire between 2016 and 2024. The Soros-funded CAP Action, in particular, was listed as one of the summit’s “organizers.”

The anti-American/anti-Israel undertones of the event was further reflected by the high profile leaders who were in attendance. Jewish Insider noted a “chorus of anti-Israel voices,” beginning with Sanchez himself and including figures like Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) and South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, were all counted amongst the attendees. Sanchez, reflecting the Soros vitriol against the Jewish State, demanded April 18 for a downgrade in EU-Israel relations.

(…) The Jewish Insider also reported that “Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton sent video messages” in support of the gathering.  (Read more: Newsbusters, 4/20/2026)  (Archive)

6:30-7:30 Reveals that progressives have long embraced 1. Eugenics 2. Sterilization and 3. Selective Reproduction.

Why do I draw specific attention to these horrific and diabolical practices?

For the very simple reason that none other than Jeffrey Epstein and one of his most actively engaged contacts as learned through the recent DOJ Epstein Library (linked below) were pursuing exactly these goals.

Who might this individual be? Harvard professor Martin Nowak (linked below) a proponent of #Eusociality, that is selective reproduction.

LD: Appears JE envisioned developing an AI operation primarily but not strictly for medical purposes and building a DNA database in the process. The entire presentation is a quick read. I provide selected quotes I find of greatest interest and worthy of MUCH greater inquiry. Please Share

JE: “Now what we ‘ll do is we’ll use this one sequence , his own DNA and the specific problem he has with his cancer and access worldwide databases of every drug, every single drug across the world that’s been tested on all different types of cancers that specifically have his sequence involved.”

“So as of medical advance you are able for the first time to have custom made medicine but you can’ t do that without accessing a vast database of information.”

“So my company ‘s algorithms will in fact digest the information as best as they can currently and then spit
out its recommendations. So, you’ll have computer generated solutions for medical problems, which is the next century ‘ s work on how to get people healthy.”

“So Southern Trust will be basically building up a database searching mechanism to search things on an individual basis both in the medical field and the financial field.”

“Again it’ s an exciting area that the idea is that the diseases that affect the local population – – I do lots of work in Africa. To backup, Africa is for me a fertile ground for experimentation . . . ”

LD: experimentation!!??

“Africa has almost no medicine . It’ s difficult . But with searching as opposed to testing people, everyone is not the same, not everyone needs an aspirin and not everyone needs the same aspirin or the same amount of aspirin. The idea would be to build up a personal medical database for lots of people.”

April 18, 2026 – The Atlantic publishes hit piece on Kash Patel who then threatens lawsuit

“Top to bottom, this is one of the most absurd things I’ve ever read. Completely false at a nearly 100% clip. And with a two hour deadline.”

FBI Director Kash Patel is threatening to sue The Atlantic after the magazine published allegations that he engaged in “conspicuous inebriation” and unexplained absences, claims his team calls categorically false and defamatory.

His attorney, Jesse Binnall, said the legal warning went out before publication. In a letter sent to Fitzpatrick on April 17, the same day the outlet planned to publish, Binnall laid out the specific claims Patel disputes and warned of swift legal action if they ran.

The Atlantic had sent the FBI’s Office of Public Affairs a request for comment at 2:09 p.m. with a 4:00 p.m. deadline, less than two hours to respond to 19 allegations. Binnall’s letter called that window itself “strong evidence of reckless disregard for the truth.”

The letter identifies seven specific claims it deems defamatory, including:

“Claim #5 — Director drinks “to the point of apparent intoxication” at Ned’s (DC) and The Poodle Room (Las Vegas) “in the presence of White House and other administration staff”;

Claim #7 — “on multiple occasions in the past year, members of his security detail had difficulty waking Patel because he was seemingly intoxicated and this information was supplied to DOJ and White House officials”;

Claim #8 — “breaching equipment” was requested at HQ because Patel had been “unresponsive behind locked doors” and there were concerns about reaching him “in an emergency”;

Claim #9 — Director Patel’s conduct is a “threat to public safety” including in the event of a domestic terrorist attack;

Claim #11 — Director Patel is “dragging his feet on terror cases,” delaying/refusing FISA warrants;

Claim #14 — alcohol played a role in Patel’s public statements about active investigations “including the murder of Charlie Kirk”;

Claim #19 — Director Patel had security detail shut down the FBI Association Store so he could shop alone and expressed frustration that merchandise “wasn’t intimidating enough.”

Binnall called the sourcing “vague” and “unattributed,” built on phrases like “people familiar with the matter,” and said the breaching equipment claim “has no corroborating public record whatsoever and appears to be either fabricated or drawn from a single hostile and unreliable source.”

“They were on notice that the claims were categorically false and defamatory. They published anyway. See you in court.”

FBI communications strategist Erica Knight went further on X, posting a detailed counter-record of Patel’s tenure, including 67,000 arrests nationwide, a 20% drop in the murder rate, and more than 6,200 missing children recovered.

The Atlantic published a “bombshell” on Director Patel tonight that every real DC reporter chased, couldn’t verify, and passed on.

Here’s reality. Since being sworn in, Director Patel has taken a grand total of 17 days off — half as much time off as Comey and Wray — and he spends twice as much time in the office as either of them ever did. The so-called “intoxication incidents” The Atlantic breathlessly reports have happened exactly ZERO times. Under his tenure: 67,000 arrests nationwide. Violent crime arrests up 112%. Murder rate down 20%. 1,800 criminal gangs dismantled. 2,200+ kilos of fentanyl seized — enough to kill 178 million Americans. 300 human traffickers arrested. 6,200+ missing children recovered. 1,700 online predators arrested — a 490% increase. 8 of the Top Ten Most Wanted captured, double the previous four years combined. 1,000+ agents redeployed from DC bureaucracy back to field offices chasing criminals.

The Atlantic’s “reporting”? Fabricated stories about “breaching equipment” that was never requested. Intoxication claims with not a single witness willing to put their name on one. A paragraph — I’m not kidding — about the FBI Store not carrying “intimidating enough” merchandise. Every serious DC reporter passed on this. Sarah Fitzpatrick and Jeffrey Goldberg printed it anyway.

Lawsuit is being filed.

April 18, 2026 – Ilhan Omar says accounting error led to overstated wealth, net worth is really $95,000

Omar and Mynett saw their fortune skyrocket in 2025. (Credit: Alex Wong/Getty Images)

“As the busiest of people, it is very common for members and their spouses to rely on learned professionals like accountants to make calculations and determinations that appear on public filings.”

In a May 2025 financial disclosure, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) reported that she and her husband, Tim Mynett, had a combined net worth of between $6 million and $30 million. When the disclosure was reported in September, it raised eyebrows because it suggested their net worth had jumped by as much as 3,500% from the previous year.

At the time, The Washington Free Beacon reported that the couple’s wealth was “derived almost entirely from the value of Mynett’s ownership stake in his two companies that, together, were worth no more than $51,000 at the end of 2023.”

Needless to say, such a sudden and massive increase in wealth drew widespread attention to Mynett’s companies, which consist of a winery and a venture capital firm.

The Wall Street Journal reported Friday that “facing potential investigations pushed by President Trump and House Republicans,” Omar filed an amended disclosure stating that their current net worth falls between $18,004 and $95,000.

Omar explains the dramatically higher estimate on the May 2025 disclosure was due to “major accounting errors.”

The Journal notes that in the amended filing, Mynett’s businesses “are shown as having no value once liabilities are factored in.”

(…)

I visited the principal address of ESTCRU winery. This winery is co owned by US Rep of Minnesota Ilhan Omar’s husband, Timothy Mynett, yet seems to allegedly be a shell business used to launder funds.

Here we were informed that 40+ wineries operate out of this location and that ESTCRU hasn’t been a client for years. That is very strange because in 2024 they made about $15,000 and in 2025 it exploded to up to $5 million dollars… yet they weren’t producing any wine??

BTW no biz license exists for ESTRCRU at this address. The other wineries here are properly licensed and producing.

Would’ve loved to try it and promote ilhans wine! Follow me for pt 2, the wine makers here didn’t appreciate our visit and were very defensive.

It seems like they thought we were questioning their businesses and not Ilhans. In part two another wine maker assures us that Ilhan is a real person…

UPDATE: 4/20/2026

Benny Johnson 1/26/2026

BREAKING: President Trump Announces Ilhan Omar Is Under Full Investigation By The DOJ, Says Border Czar Tom Homan Is Being Sent To Minnesota Tonight:

“The DOJ and Congress are looking at “Congresswoman” Illhan Omar, who left Somalia with NOTHING, and is now reportedly worth more than 44 Million Dollars. Time will tell all.”

How did Ilhan Omar make millions from a 100% fake winery?

This is insane. We investigated. Check this out…

Illhan Omar lists a California winery on her financial disclosures. You can see them below. The winery name is ‘eStCru LLC.’

In 2023 it was valued at $15k.
In 2024 it was valued at $5 Million (!!!)

This must be a very successful winery to grow that much in value over one year. Except… the winery does not even exist:

– No phone line
– No physical winery
– Social media gone dark
– A barely functional ‘website’
– No wine lol

What is this?!

It gets worse: Omar’s third husband, Tim Mynett, has been accused of defrauding investors through this FAKE winery. He was sued by the investors for millions because it’s all fraudulent. This is on brand. Minnesota AG Keith Ellison previously worked with Mynett, the same AG who has REFUSED to investigate widespread Somali fraud.

How does a nonexistent winery jump from $15k to $5 million in one year when the company is a ghost? How can Omar claim this fake company provides her millions in assets? Seems like a cover.

Ironically, one of the wine labels they made was literally called ‘The Devil‘s Lie’

The Trump administration and Republicans in Congress MUST investigate this fraud further.

 

April 18, 2026 – New CA law inhibits investigative journalism, Nick Shirley confronts CA legislatures

(Credit: Evan Vucci/AP)

Nick Shirley, an independent journalist and YouTuber known for his fraud exposés in Minnesota and now California, went out to confront California legislators over Assembly Bill 2624, which many have dubbed the “Stop Nick Shirley Act.”

The legislation is framed by the state’s Democrats as a measure to protect the privacy of businesses and those who provide immigration support services. It would allow certain covered workers and organizations to withhold personal details such as home addresses, and would restrict the posting of their images or personal information online when done to threaten, intimidate, or incite violence.

Failure to comply with the bill could result in thousands of dollars in fines or up to a year in jail.

Exposing California’s corrupt “Stop Nick Shirley Act”, instead of going after the fraudsters California is now going after the people exposing the fraud.

This bill AB 2624 will:
– Criminalize journalists with misdemeanors, $10,000 fines, imprisonment, and content takedown
– Let immigrant based NGOs’ funding be confidential
– Take away freedom of the press from journalists
– Protect any “immigration support services” information from being public (healthcare, legal services, etc)

This bill was created by the Attorney General’s WIFE Mia Bonta to stop fraud from being exposed. Please like and share this video everywhere! By trying to silence and intimidate journalists, they are trying to hide the truth from you. EXPOSE ALL THE FRAUD.

In one clip, Shirley confronted a California state senator and the Speaker of the Assembly, Robert Rivas.

The state senator insisted that Shirley’s understanding of the bill was a misinterpretation and told him she was willing to sit down and go over it in greater detail. The Speaker, however, ignored his questions and quickly retreated to his car.

HOLY CRAP! Nick Shirley FOLLOWED the California Speaker of the House and a Senator for pushing the Stop Nick Shirley Act, which CRIMINALIZES anti-fraud journalism

They were stumbling, panicked, REFUSING to acknowledge that levying up to $50K fines for journalism is TYRANNY

SHIRLEY: “Speaker Rivas…AB 2624? Is there a conflict of interest with Mia Bonta, and her husband being the ATTORNEY GENERAL?”

RIVAS: “I don’t know.” *Runs into car* 🤯

SHIRLEY: “These people won’t even answer the questions.”

Chris Murphy’s clandestine meeting with Javad Zarif is a definitive violation of the Logan Act. While the Left obsessed over a fabricated Russia narrative, this Senator conducted shadow diplomacy with a regime that designates us as the Great Satan. He met the enemy weeks after the necessary liquidation of Qasem Soleimani. This pattern of subversion continues in 2026 as he attempts to block the President’s current blockade of Tehran. Such treasonous coordination with terrorists warrants immediate expulsion from the Senate. Intellectually pedestrian liberals mistake this subversion for statesmanship.

“If he [Mojtaba Khamenei] doesn’t change his ways, yeah, they’re [United States] going to kill him.”

“The easiest way to get intelligence…send a pretty girl, talk to the guy…I have to resist your eyes.”

“Your eyes have mesmerized me so much…Almost like you’re an intelligence.”

Andrew Hugg, a U.S. Chief of Chemical Nuclear Surety, was caught on hidden camera casually revealing sensitive information to a stranger in a public restaurant. Andrew Hugg, Chief of Chemical Nuclear Surety, in charge of nuclear and chemical safety was caught on hidden camera releasing information regarding the U.S. Nuclear Information. He claims the U.S. still possesses nerve agents and says a U.S. Army chemist recently died from exposure.

He also acknowledges U.S. airstrikes have killed children in Iran, calling it “collateral damage,” and revealed to the journalist how nuclear launch decisions are made in real time.

Hugg described how the United States could assassinate Iran’s next leader if he “doesn’t change,” while admitting the U.S. has no plans to use nuclear weapons: “We’re not going to nuke anybody.”

All of this was casually revealed to an undercover journalist in a restaurant. This raises serious questions about this official’s judgment, security, and what’s really happening behind closed doors.

April 21, 2026 – Data Republican: The true reason Pete Hegseth is being targeted is because he’s standing between Trump and a coup

🧵 THREAD: The true reason Pete Hegseth is being targeted is because he’s standing between President Trump and a coup @PeteHegseth named the institutions… CFR, Brookings, the general class… in 37 seconds in a video by @Liz_Wheeler. Within 72 hours of his nomination, a color revolution planning document cited him as an insider threat.

They didn’t go after him because of drinking. They didn’t go after him because of women. They went after him because every color revolution manual ever written says the same thing: you cannot topple a government unless the security forces defect. And a loyal Secretary of Defense is the one person who makes sure they don’t.

I have the receipts. Their own documents. Their own training sessions. Their own words on camera.

As always, patience as I pull together the thread. 👇

It gets worse. Hardy Merriman — Gene Sharp’s personal assistant, co-author of the CANVAS regime change field manual used in 50+ countries — wrote a domestic version.

It says:

“Those who serve in government institutions swear an oath to uphold the Constitution. They don’t swear allegiance to the president himself.”

Then it teaches them how to defect: call in sick, work slowly, ignore orders, leak to media, publicly defy.

Now look at what their own planning document says about Hegseth.

The “Democracy Playbook 2025” — the same document that teaches “dealing with security forces” and color revolution case studies — cites this in footnote 49:

“Pete Hegseth had been flagged by fellow service member as possible ‘Insider Threat'” — AP, November 15, 2024.

72 hours after his nomination. In a regime change manual.

CONCLUSION:

Pete Hegseth named the institutions in 37 seconds. The institutions responded with:

– Pre-positioned oppo research activated in 72 hours
– A regime change planning document citing him by name
– A legal predicate for military disobedience published the same week as the Seditious Six video
– A pipeline that produced the cohort
– A grand jury they couldn’t win
– A replacement they CAN co-opt
– Braver Angels and MWEG sitting at the same table as the color revolution coordinators
– A physical barricade at the building where the playbook was written

They’re not trying to get rid of a bad SecDef. They’re trying to remove the one obstacle that makes their entire methodology fail.

April 21, 2026 – The DOJ announces an 11 count indictment against the slander machine, Southern Poverty Law Center, for wire fraud, bank fraud and money laundering; foments hate groups

This evening: @DAGToddBlanche and I are announcing an 11 count indictment against the Southen Poverty Law Center.

Charges include wire fraud, false statements to a federally insured bank, and conspiracy to commit concealment money laundering.

The SPLC allegedly engaged in a massive fraud operation to deceive their donors, enrich themselves, and hide their deceptive operations from the public. They lied to their donors, vowing to dismantle violent extremist groups, and actually turned around and paid the leaders of these very extremist groups – even utilizing the funds to have these groups facilitate the commission of state and federal crimes.

That is illegal – and this is an ongoing investigation against all individuals involved.

 

(…) Quite simply, the SPLC opened bank accounts assigned to fictitious entities, allowing the group to “disguise the true nature, source, ownership, and control of the fraudulently obtained donated money the SPLC paid the field sources.” And to keep that scheme from being discovered, the SPLC made false statements to banks related to those accounts. All in violation of federal law.

These weren’t small amounts, either. From 2014 to 2023, the SPLC funneled more than $3 million of its donor dollars to informants associated with various extremist groups. As detailed in the indictment, here are just a few examples:

  • An informant who was part of the leadership that planned the 2017 “Unite the Right” event in Charlottesville, Virginia. He attended that event “at the direction of the SPLC” and made racist postings under their supervision. He helped coordinate travel to the event. From 2015-2023, the SPLC paid him more than $270,000. According to Gavin McInnes, that informant was Jason Kessler. The SPLC website still features Kessler as an extremist.

One informant affiliated with the National Alliance (Nazi ties) – who fundraised for the NA – worked with the SPLC for more than 20 years. He was paid over $1 million from 2014-2023.

Another National Alliance member – in fact, its former chairman – was paid more than $140,000 from 2016-2023. He was also featured on the SPLC’s “Extremist File” website. While his name is still unknown (it’s still early), this is how the SPLC features the National Alliance on its website.

The national president of American Front – a convicted felon for cross burning – was an SPLC informant that was paid nearly $20,000. American Front was once described by the SPLC as “a nationwide skinhead coalition.”

Another informant was a member of the Ku Klux Klan and married to an Exalted Cyclops of the Ku Klux Klan. The informant and their spouse were part of the KKK’s litigation to take part in an Adopt-a-Highway program. During litigation, payments exceeding $3,500 were made from the SPLC to the KKK informant. Interestingly, the SPLC had this to say about KKK efforts to Adopt-a-Highway in Georgia back in 2012 – perhaps in the very litigation it had been funding:

Mark Potok, senior fellow at Southern Poverty Law Center, said the effort is little more than a publicity stunt. “I think this is simply another attempt by the Klan to somehow portray itself as a kinder, gentler group rather than the terrorist organization that it has historically been,” Potok said. “On the other hand, they’re very likely to win a court battle because the state agencies can issue regulations regarding things like this but they have to be neutral toward ideology.”

April 22, 2026 – Data Republican: How the Charlottesville rally and SPLC birthed an entire billion-dollar-plus “democracy” ecosystem

🧵🚨 THREAD: How the Charlottesville rally and SPLC birthed an entire billion-dollar-plus “democracy” ecosystem 🚨

11 federal counts. Wire fraud. Money laundering conspiracy. But here’s what the SPLC headlines are missing:

• The indictment describes a paid informant in the leadership chat that PLANNED Unite the Right
• That informant “helped coordinate transportation” to the rally… at SPLC’s direction
• There is ONE publicly identified organizer whose documented role was transportation coordinator
• His Discord posts about running over protesters were made 26 DAYS before Heather Heyer was killed by a car
• The indictment says postings were made “under the supervision of the SPLC”
• Charlottesville then became the founding event for a billion-dollar political machine
• SPLC installed itself as that machine’s definitional gatekeeper

I report. You draw your own conclusions.

As always, patience as I pull together the thread

It is NOT confirmed fact that Chesny, who appeared to be encouraging running over protesters, was SPLC’s informant.

But the indictment (paragraph 11a) describes informant F-37, and it matches Chesny:

• Member of the online leadership chat that planned Unite the Right
• Attended Charlottesville (at SPLC’s direction)
• Made racist postings (under SPLC’s supervision)
• Helped coordinate transportation for attendees

🚨Are Aleksander Dugin, David Duke, and SPLC working together!?

Former KKK Leader David Duke Admits Organizing Unite the Right – Dugin’s Geopolitical Chaos Playbook or SPLC-Funded?

In the video below, David Duke stands next to Mike Peinovich (aka Mike Enoch) and openly boasts about organizing the 2017 Unite the Right rally.

This is the very event that brought together alt-right figures, white supremacists, and America’s largest Marxist organizations in a manufactured storm of chaos and division.

🔺Duke openly boasts in the video….

“We did this rally. We worked very hard on it. Everybody was legal. They put us in this park. We overfilled the park.”

Mike Enoch – who appears on the SPLC-funded Unite the Right poster – was given top billing and heavily promoted at the event.

‼️Also given top billing was Richard Spencer, the man who coined the term “alt-right.” Spencer is closely connected to Aleksander Dugin, openly hates the U.S. Constitution, and has long been one of the original pro-Russia, anti-Jewish actors working to infiltrate the conservative movement.

At the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville (August 11–12, 2017), the crowds chanted:

“The Jews Will Not Replace Us” and “Russia is our Friend.”

These are chants straight from Aleksander Dugin’s playbook.

⚠️ Did you know that many of America’s largest Marxist organizations were also in attendance?

• Democratic Socialists of America
• The Jewish Solidarity Caucus
• Industrial Workers of the World
• Workers World Party
• Party for Socialism and Liberation
• Virginia Defenders
• Black Lives Matter
• Showing Up for Racial Justice

This so-called “rally” was actually a convergence of the most radical anti-American actors and organizations, all trying to destroy America and provoke civil war.

It was Dugin’s dream come true.

RAIR Foundation has long highlighted Dugin admitting on film that his goal is to cause civil war in America and Europe.

By rallying the most radical political organizations together, he has always promoted this as a way to create “geopolitical disorder.”

🚨 In his book Foundations of Geopolitics, required reading for Russian military officers and promoted by many high-profile “conservatives” on this platform, Dugin openly wrote:

“It is especially important to introduce geopolitical disorder into internal American activity, encouraging all kinds of separatism and ethnic, social, and racial conflicts, actively supporting all dissident movements – extremist, racist, and sectarian groups, thus destabilizing internal political processes in the U.S. It would also make sense simultaneously to support isolationist tendencies in American politics…”

❓ So here’s the real question:

🔺Were they ALL getting paid by the SPLC?

🔺 Were Mike Enoch and Richard Spencer on the SPLC payroll?

🔺Was David Duke given SPLC money to “work very hard” organizing the rally?

🔺Were Aleksander Dugin, David Duke, and SPLC working together all along….

🚨 Interesting how Tucker Carlson seems to be Dugin’s latest prop – we will be exposing the rest of them soon!

Thank you to @RAIRFoundation journalist @ReneeNal, one of the only reporters who has extensively covered these subversive figures behind the Unite the Right rally for years.

April 22, 2026 – The SPLC targets conservatives, placing them on a “Hate Map” next to the hate groups they secretly fund

The Southern Poverty Law Center leveraged its credibility from fighting the KKK to smear mainstream conservatives — placing them on a “hate map” and “extremist watch list” alongside neo-Nazis and actual Klan chapters.

Targets included:

-Turning Point USA
-PragerU
-Dr. Ben Carson
-Stephen Miller
-Sen. Rand Paul
-Jack Posobiec
-Matt Walsh
-Chaya Raichik
-James Lindsay
-Mike Cernovich
-Moms for Liberty
-David Horowitz
-Franklin Graham
-Charles Murray
-Dennis Prager
-Frank Gaffney
-Heritage Foundation
-The Federalist Society

These are mainstream conservative figures—authors, scholars, influencers, elected officials, student organizations, and parent groups—branded as extremists for political disagreement.

Their sole offense was disagreeing with the SPLC’s politics.

Yet the SPLC listed them in the same database as terrorist organizations and white supremacist hate groups.

The real-world consequences followed.

In 2012, a gunman targeted the Family Research Council after using the SPLC’s “hate map” as a guide.

Months before Charlie Kirk’s murder, the SPLC added Turning Point USA to that same map.

One day before his death, it published a Hatewatch article smearing him under “Dismantling White Supremacy.”

When Tyler Robinson was asked by his parents why he killed Charlie, he said, “the guy spreads too much hate.”

For decades, the SPLC exploited its reputation to recast political opposition as hatred — pressuring the federal government, Big Tech, and the American public to treat conservative Americans as domestic enemies.

Yesterday we learned it was also secretly funding the very neo-Nazis and Klan members it claimed to oppose — using donor money to pay the leaders of the same hate groups it was publicly denouncing.

How many reputations and lives did they destroy while secretly funding the very hate groups they claimed to oppose?

GOOD FOR @AGPamBondi AND @FBIDirectorKash FOR TERMINATING ALL ASSOCIATION WITH THE SOUTHERN POVERTY LAW CENTER.

The SPLC was dropped because of its “Hate Map” that targets Christian and conservative organizations.

“For decades, the SPLC has labeled American Family Association as a “hate group” simply because it espouses conservative and Christian viewpoints. Other groups targeted by the SPLC include Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), Family Research Council (FRC), Focus on the Family, Moms for Liberty, and Turning Point USA.”


The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) defines a “hate group” for its Hate Map as follows:

“An organization or collection of individuals that—based on its official statements or principles, the statements of its leaders, or its activities—has beliefs or practices that attack or malign an entire class of people, typically for their immutable characteristics.”  (SPLC)

The SPLC has been Big Tech’s secret police for silencing conservatives. For YEARS, Google, YouTube, and Facebook used the SPLC to justify bans, demonetization, and blacklisting. Now the same “moral authority” has been caught funneling MILLIONS to extremists. They labeled YOU the threat, while funding the real ones.

April 22, 2026 – Ilhan Omar given May 5th deadline to produce documents on massive “Feeding Our Future” fraud after refusing to appear at Minnesota House hearing

The Minnesota House Fraud Prevention and State Oversight Committee has given Rep. Ilhan Omar a firm May 5th deadline to turn over all records and communications related to her possible involvement in the infamous Feeding Our Future scandal.

The demand follows Omar’s refusal to appear at a scheduled committee hearing earlier this week, despite being formally invited.

Committee Chair Rep. Kristin Robbins, a Republican, confirmed the congresswoman “ghosted” the panel and failed to respond to multiple outreach attempts.

“The fact that she ghosted us — she would not even respond to multiple inquiries to a state legislature where she used to serve,” Robbins said, according to a report from NewsNation. “I think it shows disdain for Minnesota taxpayers that she’s unwilling to even answer these questions.”

In a formal letter sent to Omar on April 22, Chair Robbins is now requiring:
  • All written and electronic communications between Omar’s office and the convicted owners/operators of Safari Restaurant in Minneapolis (a key Feeding Our Future site where Omar held multiple campaign events).
  • Communications with more than a dozen individuals who have already been convicted in the massive fraud case.
  • Records related to Omar’s sponsorship of the MEALS Act — the 2020 federal legislation that dramatically loosened eligibility rules for child nutrition programs during COVID, which prosecutors say directly enabled the fraud.

If Omar fails to comply, the committee has signaled it will explore further legislative and congressional options, though state lawmakers have limited direct enforcement power over a member of Congress.

The Feeding Our Future case involved the theft of more than $250 million in federal child nutrition funds meant for meals during the COVID-19 pandemic.

(…) “She created the conditions that allowed all these bad actors to come in and bill for thousands of meals a day,” Robbins said. “One little tiny restaurant serving 5,000 meals a day, seven days a week — it was incomprehensible numbers.”

April 23, 2026 – Democrats vote unanimously to not remove the deceased from Minnesota’s voter rolls because it’s inclusive and prevents voter fraud

 

 

Grok question:

Is it a Federal law to remove dead people from voter rolls and what do states do to follow that law?

Answer:

Yes, it is federal law to remove deceased individuals from voter rolls. The primary requirement comes from the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (NVRA), specifically Section 8 (52 U.S.C. § 20507). uscode.house.gov +1

Under the NVRA, states must “conduct a general program that makes a reasonable effort to remove the names of ineligible voters from the official lists of eligible voters by reason of—(A) the death of the registrant.” uscode.house.gov

This applies to voter registration lists used for federal elections. The law emphasizes that removals must be “uniform, nondiscriminatory, and in compliance with the Voting Rights Act of 1965.”
uscode.house.gov

The Help America Vote Act of 2002 (HAVA) strengthens this by requiring states to maintain a single, centralized, computerized statewide voter registration list and to coordinate it with state agency records on death (as well as felony status where applicable). List maintenance must occur on a regular basis in line with NVRA rules. justice.gov +1

April 24, 2026 – USAID funneled $27 million through the Tides Center (Soros), with some of it going directly to the Southern Poverty Law Center

Incredible. USAID was funding the SPLC through an organization called the Tides Center, based in San Francisco.

From 2016 through 2024, USAID granted $27 million to the Tides Network to “strengthen global civil society organizations, promote transparency, accountability, citizen engagement, and serve as fiscal agent for USAID’s Civil Society Innovation Initiative.”

The Tides Center set up a fund through its Tides Foundation with that money for the Southern Poverty Law Center’s “Vote Your Voice” initiative.

The executive director of the Tides Center is Ayesha Khanna. She was co-chair of Women for Obama in Atlanta, Georgia.

April 25, 2026 – A third assassination is attempted against Trump and administration officials at the White House Correspondents Association dinner

Popping noises were heard at the back of the White House Correspondents Association dinner. USSS agents ran down the center aisle past me. Screams from guests. They got the president and first lady out immediately as we dove to the floor. Some people hid under tables. A very short time later, security details began to escort top officials out. The dais was mostly cleared, including the very pregnant Karoline Leavitt. Stephen Miller shielded his wife, Katie, also pregnant, on the floor, until a security official reached their side. There was a bit of delay moving some cabinet secretaries out. Hegseth was still in the room for a bit, standing up looking around. David Urban lifted Dan Scavino’s wife Erin over a chair to speed their exit. Top staff asked if they could leave with the cabinet secretaries. Sean Duffy is still here at 9:13 pm. Linda McMahon just left.

During the press conference, President Trump released footage of Cole Allen in the lobby of the Washington Hilton.

Better view:

The president released a photo of the shooter:

The suspected shooter at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner has been identified as 31-year-old Cole Tomas Allen of Torrance, California.

Allen is in custody, despite initial reports that he was fatally shot, and was taken alive after Secret Service agents neutralized him in the lobby near the security screening area.

(…) Reports indicate Allen assembled a long weapon in an unsecured back room before attempting to open fire near the magnetometers.

Video footage circulating on social media shows law enforcement and Secret Service agents detaining a man on the ground in the Hilton lobby.

🚨🇺🇸 BREAKING: The suspect in the White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting has been identified as 31-year-old Cole Tomas Allen of Torrance, California.

-Video has emerged showing someone on the ground with U.S. Secret Service agents inside the Washington Hilton

-Believed to be the alleged shooter, taken into custody

-Allen reportedly assembled a long weapon in an unsecured back room before opening fire near the magnetometer screening area

-A law enforcement officer was struck in the vest during the incident

-Trump, Melania, and all protectees confirmed safe

The questions about how he got that close start now.

Allen appears to be a Caltech graduate who earned his master’s degree in computer science from California State University, Dominguez Hills last year.

Allen also worked as a teacher. He was named “Teacher of the Month” in December 2024 at C2 Education in Torrance, according to an Instagram post.

The shooting comes as the very same media figures who have spent weeks protesting Trump’s attendance at the dinner were demanding “forceful” pushback or outright boycotts.

More than 250 journalists, including Dan Rather and Sam Donaldson, have signed an open letter demanding that the White House Correspondents’ Association turn this Saturday’s dinner into a stage for a direct, “forceful” confrontation with President Donald Trump. (Credit: public domain)

WHCD Shooting Suspect Told Law Enforcement He Targeted Trump Officials, CBS News Sources Say

On Sunday it was revealed that Cole Allen wrote a manifesto and expressed his hatred for “pedophile, rapist” Trump.

Cole Allen’s manifesto sounded like Democrat-media talking points. He called himself a ‘friendly federal assassin.’

The shooter also mocked the Secret Service and said he walked right into the hotel with multiple weapons and no one noticed.

“Like, the one thing that I immediately noticed walking into the hotel is the sense of arrogance. I walk in with multiple weapons and not a single person there considers the possibility that I could be a threat,” he wrote, according to The New York Post.

“The security at the event is all outside, focused on protestors and current arrivals, because apparently no one thought about what happens if someone checks in the day before. Like, this level of incompetence is insane, and I very sincerely hope it’s corrected by the time this country gets actually competent leadership again,” he wrote.

Per The New York Post:

Gunman Cole Allen sent an anti-President Trump manifesto to his family members about 10 minutes before opening fire at Saturday night’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner — calling himself the “Friendly Federal Assassin” and revealing he was trying to kill Trump administration officials, The Post has learned.

“Turning the other cheek is for when you yourself are oppressed. I’m not the person raped in a detention camp. I’m not the fisherman executed without trial,” Allen wrote in the document, which a relative provided to police, a US official said.

“I’m not a schoolkid blown up, or a child starved, or a teenage girl abused by the many criminals in this administration. Turning the other cheek when *someone else* is oppressed is not Christian behavior; it is complicity in the oppressor’s crimes.”

Allen described his targets as including “Administration officials (not including [FBI Director Kash] Patel): they are targets, prioritized from highest-ranking to lowest.”

“I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes,” Allen wrote, apparently referring to the president.

NEWS: new info on the WHCD shooting suspect, Cole Allen, from the White House. I’ll be talking with President Trump about all of this in 30 minutes on @SundayBriefFNC

The suspect’s written manifesto clearly stated he wanted to target administration officials. He also had a ton of anti-Trump and anti-Christian rhetoric on his social media accounts.

ALLEN’s brother had notified New London PD (CT) of ALLEN’s alleged manifesto he had sent to his family members prior to the incident.

Secret Service and Montgomery County Police interviewed Avriana Allen, ALLEN’s sister, at their residence in Rockville, MD. The following highlights from the interview:

•Allen said her brother had a tendency to make radical statements and his rhetoric constantly referenced a plan to do “something” to fix the issues with today’s world.

•Confirmed ALLEN purchased two handguns and a shotgun from Cap Tactical Firearms and kept them stored at their parent’s home and that their parents were unaware that ALLEN was keeping the firearms in the home.

•ALLEN would regularly go to the shooting range to train with his firearms

•ALLEN was part of a group called ‘The Wide Awakes’

•ALLEN attended a ‘No Kings’ protest in California at some point

Accused White House Correspondents’ Dinner gunman Cole Allen sent a chilling anti-President Trump manifesto to his family just before opening fire — calling himself the “Friendly Federal Assassin” and revealing he was hell-bent on killing Trump administration officials, The Post has learned.

Allen described his “targets” as including “Administration officials (not including [FBI Director Kash] Patel)… prioritized from highest-ranking to lowest” in the unhinged missive that went out about 10 minutes before the shooting Saturday night, two US officials said.

“I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes,” Allen wrote, apparently referring to the president. (Read more: New York Post, 4/26/2026)

Benny Johnson puts together a montage of the extreme leftwing response to the third assassination attempt on Trump:

“This guy did hear voices. They were Ted Lieu’s, they were Brandon Johnson’s, they were CNN’s, they were The View, they were MS NOW,” Gutfeld said.

“I think this is a helpful assassination attempt because it is the first one that shows you can be radicalized by liberal smugness,” he said.

“He wasn’t a crank. He was not deranged. Don’t buy into that narrative,” Gutfeld said. “He was just following orders.”

So-called Hakeem Jeffries is a disgrace to the United States Congress. He is deranged, disgusting and violent.

It is unacceptable that House Democrats continue to remain silent in the aftermath of his call for “maximum warfare, everywhere, all the time” against Republicans. Their casual acceptance of hateful and divisive language enables this out-of-control behavior.

Democrats must hold so-called Hakeem accountable.

Americans will not let the violent and thuggish behavior of so-called Hakeem go unchecked. Accountability is coming to all of these sick extremists.

April 27, 2026 – Epstein Files: Reports surface of young male victims at Zorro Ranch

For more than two decades, the public conversation surrounding Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes has centered almost exclusively on what he and his accomplices did to girls and young women. Yet a startling new disclosure from the unredacted federal files suggests the predator’s appetite for destruction extended further than the public ever knew. According to a sitting member of Congress who has reviewed the documents, a lawsuit alleges that young men were drugged and raped at Epstein’s secluded New Mexico compound, Zorro Ranch.

U.S. Rep. Melanie Stansbury, a New Mexico Democrat serving on the House Oversight Committee, told a Santa Fe podcast last month that one of the lawsuits buried in the file trove came from a man who said he was lured to the 7,500-acre ranch under the pretense of attending a party, only to be drugged and sexually assaulted. He further alleged that other young men at the same gathering suffered the same fate. The story, picked up this week by the New York Post, adds a previously underreported dimension to a scandal already saturated with horror.

That such an allegation existed in federal records for years without surfacing publicly raises an obvious question. How many other crimes committed at Zorro Ranch were quietly catalogued, redacted, and shelved while the architects of the cover-up assured the public that justice had been served?

  • A lawsuit referenced in the unredacted Epstein files alleges a man was drugged and raped at Zorro Ranch, along with other young men present at the same party.
  • Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-N.M.) disclosed the allegation after reviewing federal documents as a member of the House Oversight Committee.
  • At least 10 girls and young women, including the late Virginia Giuffre and Annie Farmer, have alleged abuse at the 7,500-acre New Mexico compound dating to the mid-1990s.
  • The FBI never conducted a full forensic investigation of the ranch property, and a 2019 New Mexico state probe was halted at the request of federal prosecutors.
  • An anonymous 2019 tip claimed two “foreign girls” were buried in the hills near the ranch following sex acts that turned fatal — a claim never substantiated but never properly investigated either.
  • The ranch was sold from Epstein’s estate before a full forensic investigation could be completed; it is now owned by former Texas state Sen. Don Huffines, who renamed it Rancho de San Rafael and operates it as a Christian retreat.
  • New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez relaunched a criminal probe in February, and the state legislature unanimously approved a bipartisan truth commission to deliver an initial report by July 31.
  • Stansbury and other lawmakers have accused the U.S. Department of Justice of redacting names of “powerful perpetrators” in apparent violation of the statute permitting only victim redactions.

April 27, 2026 – The four major differences between leftwing political violence and rightwing political violence

Let me explain the four major differences between leftwing political violence and rightwing political violence:

1. Rightwing violence comes from the fringes of the conservative movement. Leftwing violence comes from the mainstream of the progressive movement.

2. Conservatives rarely encourage or glorify rightwing violence. Progressives routinely encourage and glorify leftwing violence.

3. Leftwing violence is such a common event that we hardly take notice of it unless it involves assassinating a major political figure–think of how routine Antifa/BLM style destruction of our cities has become. Rightwing violence is notable in its rarity.

4. Leftwing violence is often falsely attributed in the mass media to conservative beliefs. The opposite never happens.

An example of how they cook the books to absolve the Left of violence in the WSJ today: A graph it published that seems to show near parity between Left and Right wing political violence is sourced to the Center for Strategic and International Studies, which by its own admission reclassified pro-Palestinian violence as “ethnonationalist”. It classifies all antisemitism as Right-wing, and all pro-Palestinian “attacks on Jewish individuals or institutions” as “ethnonationalist.” This is just nakedly partisan propaganda presented as “data” and then mainstreamed in the American press. More in my column below linked.

🚨 Cynical Publius nailed the four differences between leftwing and rightwing political violence.

The Left really just ignores — or openly excuses — all crime and violence from their own side.

That’s not a bug. It’s a feature.

🔥 **Mainstream vs Fringe**: Rightwing violence stays on the extreme edges and gets universally condemned by conservatives. Leftwing violence flows from the heart of progressive institutions — academia, media, Democrat politicians, NGOs, and activist groups. Antifa, BLM riots, campus takeovers, and now targeted assassinations get contextualized or celebrated.

🔥 **Glorification Gap**: Conservatives never bail out or fundraise for rightwing rioters. The Left literally set up bail funds for 2020 arsonists and looters while calling billion-dollar destruction “mostly peaceful.” They lionize killers and treat street violence as righteous “resistance.”

🔥 **Normalization**: Leftwing chaos has become background noise — nightly Antifa attacks in Portland, endless campus riots, targeted attacks on conservatives, and now multiple assassination attempts on Trump + Charlie Kirk’s murder. We barely blink anymore. Rightwing incidents remain rare and headline news for years.

🔥 **Media Inversion**: Every rightwing act gets blamed on “MAGA,” Trump, or conservatism writ large. Leftwing violence? “Mostly peaceful,” “root causes,” or falsely pinned on the Right. Classic projection.

The pattern is undeniable: the Left doesn’t just tolerate its own violence — it integrates it into the movement. Ends justify the means. Chaos advances the revolution.

Conservatives want to conserve a functioning society. The Left wants to burn it down and rebuild in their image.

No more false equivalence.

This is why the rhetoric and body count keep rising on one side only.

April 27, 2026 – Grassley resurrects old FBI investigation into Clinton Foundation donations and the Russian URANIUM 1 Deal

Wow. This new release from Chuck Grassley on the Clinton Foundation is a staggering 91 page treasure trove. I just skimmed it, and it is all there, Uranium One, Russia, Boeing, Haiti, Hillary’s brother, and all the other stuff. And the FBI did not even open a full investigation, whereas with Trump they had one false tip about barroom gossip from three months earlier and they immediately launched a full enterprise investigation. Absolute travesty that Comey, Strzok, Atkinson (who shows up here as well), and others have not been held to account.

2026-04-27 CEG to DOJ FBI (Uranium One Et Al.) by The Federalist

 

HOLY CRAP… a long awaited fuse has just been lit and a political BOMB is set to go off💥

🚨 Senator Chuck Grassley RESURRECTS old FBI Investigation into Clinton Foundation Donations and the Russian URANIUM 1 Deal

Q was right, and it’s absolutely mind-blowing… but first, context:

🔻 Uranium One was a Canadian mining company that, through acquisitions (including UrAsia Energy, co-founded by major Clinton Foundation donor Frank Giustra), controlled significant U.S. uranium assets—roughly 20% of U.S. uranium production capacity at the time (mines in Wyoming, Utah, etc.). Between 2009–2013, Russia’s state-owned nuclear giant Rosatom (via its subsidiary ARMZ) gradually acquired majority then full control of Uranium One in stages.

Because this involved U.S. critical minerals, it required unanimous approval from the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS)—an interagency panel of 9+ cabinet-level departments, including State (then led by Hillary Clinton), Treasury, Defense, etc. CFIUS approved it in 2010; President Obama SIGNED OFF; the Nuclear Regulatory Commission followed.

Frank Giustra: Canadian mining magnate and Clinton Foundation donor. In 2005, he and Bill Clinton traveled to Kazakhstan (a uranium-rich nation). Shortly after, Giustra’s UrAsia secured major Kazakh uranium concessions. Giustra later merged UrAsia into Uranium One (retaining stakes) and donated TENS OF MILLIONS to the Clinton Foundation (and pledged $100M+).

Ian Telfer: Uranium One chairman (post-merger). His family foundation donated ~$2.35 million to the Clinton Foundation (often routed through a Canadian entity).

Bill Clinton also received big money from various foreign entities… but we won’t go there.

Q repeatedly emphasized U1/Uranium as a cornerstone example of Clinton corruption and Pay-to-play treason for personal gain: “U1 [sale of US uranium to Russia] Sold out US and Risked US National Security for personal financial gain?

This was framed as a bigger plot to KILL the UNITED STATES FROM WITHIN, selling secrets, SAPs, AID, etc. — but it was “More than selling of URANIUM… >Crimes against Humanity”

Dems’ attacks on Trump/Ukraine were projection for their own Russia/U1 deals; closed financial systems (China/Russia/Iran) as common denominator.

Q drops treat U1 as proof the “deep state” protected the Clintons while weaponizing agencies elsewhere. Grassley’s document directly VALIDATES the existence of the 2016 FBI EC and unfinished investigative threads that Q claimed were buried, but will rock the political landscape once revealed.

Think dirty bombs.
Think The Sum of All Fears.
Think WW3.
Think 16 year plan to destroy America.

Obama, Hillary Clinton & the US Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Conspired to take The Hammond & Bundy Ranches for Uranium One and Russia

The floodgates are opening.

Senator Chuck Grassley has released a letter to the DOJ and FBI along with internal FBI records related to the Clinton Foundation and the Uranium One deal.

Here’s what it shows.

The documents confirm that the FBI opened a formal preliminary investigation in January 2016 into the Clinton Foundation. The concern was whether foreign governments and business figures used donations, speaking fees, or financial relationships to gain influence over U.S. government decisions while Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State.

Possible criminal violations based on the allegations and facts established to date, include the following:

• 18 USC §201 (Bribery of Public Officials)
• 18 USC §207 (Restrictions on former officers, employees, and elected officials of the Executive and Legislative branches)
• 18 USC §208 (Acts Affecting a Personal Financial Interest)
• 18 USC §1956 (Laundering of monetary instruments)

The investigation focused on a pattern: money flowing to the Clinton Foundation or related individuals, followed by favorable policy decisions, access, or business outcomes.

A bribery-related violation can occur even if no official action is ultimately taken, as long as a payment was made with the intent to influence a public official.

Some of the examples included:

• Donations from individuals tied to Uranium One during the time a Russian state company was seeking control of U.S. uranium assets
• A mining-related donation followed by U.S. diplomatic pressure that benefited that company
• Business deals in Colombia and elsewhere involving major donors who later received government approvals or concessions
• Payments for speeches or roles followed by policy or regulatory decisions (including Boeing and a UAE airport project)

The Uranium One deal was a central focus. This involved U.S. uranium assets being transferred to Russia’s state nuclear company, Rosatom, with approval from a U.S. government body that included the State Department. Investigators looked at whether donations tied to people involved in that deal were connected to the approval process.

The records show the FBI gathered reports, intelligence summaries, and conducted interviews. They also identified additional witnesses and evidence they still needed to pursue.

Key figures also ensnared in the investigation:

• Cheryl Mills
• Huma Abedin
• Anthony Weiner
• Frank Giustra
• Doug Band

At one point, investigators noted they had found no evidence “to date” of direct influence over the Uranium One approval, but that was a preliminary assessment, not a final conclusion.

What stands out is that the investigation appears to have never been fully completed. Internal records from 2018–2020 show:

• Key interviews still hadn’t been done
• Additional evidence was still being reviewed
• Several investigative requests were still pending

Grassley’s position is that the investigation uncovered serious patterns consistent with a potential pay-to-play scheme, but was left unresolved without a clear final outcome.

He is now demanding the DOJ and FBI turn over all records, including financial reports, interview transcripts, and unredacted documents, to determine what the government ultimately found.

This was a real federal investigation into potential pay-for-play involving the Clinton Foundation, it developed substantial leads and evidence, and according to this letter, it was never clearly finished or publicly resolved.

This may all change under FBI Director Kash Patel.

April 27, 2026 – Scott Jennings of CNN examines some of the rhetoric surrounding the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner

During a recent episode of his radio show, Scott Jennings of CNN examined some of the rhetoric surrounding the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, in which a crazed school teacher rushed the event in an effort to kill Trump and members of his team, and concluded that we have a left-wing violence problem in America.

It is impossible to disagree.

Some days, it actually feels like we are already engaged in a sort of civil war, where the bullets are only flying from one direction. The left has acted out in violence so many times over the last decade that it is starting to seem normal, which is not good.

Jennings broke it all down.

Townhall has details:

“In the hours that followed the dinner, which was postponed, a clear picture emerged. This man, a school teacher with a PhD from CalTech, had been marinated in standard-issue Left-wing talking points,” Jennings said, “things you hear every day on cable news and on the Left’s social media websites. He also attended a ‘No Kings’ rally, apparently, where people routinely hold signs and call for Trump’s death.”

“‘Trump is Hitler,’ ‘Trump is a fascist,’ ‘Trump is a racist,’ ‘Trump is a threat to democracy,’ ‘Trump is a pedophile.’ That is what Cole Allen was marinating in on a regular basis, and he was programmed by people like Congressman Ted Lieu,” Jennings noted.

Jennings then played a clip of Lieu speaking.

“Donald Trump is in the Epstein files thousands and thousands of times,” Lieu said. “In those files, there’s highly disturbing allegations of Donald Trump raping children. Of Donald Trump threatening to kill children.”

“Obviously, the shooter believed Ted Lieu’s lies and decided to do something about it,” Jennings said. “I mean, if you believed all the things they say about Trump, you could see how someone might get the idea that killing him is a good idea. Would it be a good idea to kill Hiltler, after all?”

“But when violent action occurs, we get Democrats immediately claiming they have no idea what you’re talking about,” Jennings continued. “Listen to Congressman Jamie Raskin on Sunday morning, the morning after this, on CNN. It’s jaw-dropping.”

Watch the video below:

Another example of violent rhetoric against Trump from a sitting Democrat congressman:

April 28, 2026 – Confronting Iran also aims at dismantling the British imperial financial and geopolitical system

Susan Kokinda argues that recent U.S. actions framed as confronting Iran are actually aimed at dismantling the British imperial financial and geopolitical system.

She cites Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s April 16 meeting with UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves, highlighting the on-record “Economic Fury” campaign and U.S. tracking of financial flows to Iran that allegedly lead to London. The episode shows Trump is ending a decades-old “world extortion” model tied to the Strait of Hormuz, Lloyd’s war-risk insurance, and London’s commodity pricing power (gold, metals, oil benchmarks).

It also points to an Israeli–Lebanon ceasefire and Trump prohibiting Israeli strikes, arguing this removes Netanyahu’s leverage built on a perpetual Iran threat. With London’s pricing nodes shifting toward New York and the “special relationship” weakening, the Hudson Institute is said to be pinning hopes on a King Charles visit to the U.S.

In this midweek update, Susan Kokinda argues that Kevin Warsh’s Senate Banking Committee testimony—calling for “regime change” at the Federal Reserve and blaming inflation on excessive money creation—signals a broader shift aligned with the Trump administration against what she describes as an Imperial, British-led free-trade order.

She highlights Warsh’s criticism of post-2008 quantitative easing as benefiting financial asset holders while many Americans own no assets, and contrasts this with Democrats’ focus on divestment issues. Kokinda ties Warsh’s stance to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s emphasis on raising living standards over bailing out markets and to Trump’s comments on Fed independence.

She then points to Trump’s April 20 Defense Production Act action citing market failures in energy infrastructure, including transformer shortages, as national-security threats, linking this to energy independence and Iran, and contrasts it with Mark Carney’s globalist posture and references to the War of 1812.

Susan Kokinda links a third assassination attempt on Donald Trump at the Washington Hilton—where a 31-year-old Californian, Cole Tomas Allen, charged a Secret Service checkpoint with firearms and knives—to a broader political struggle she frames as the British imperial system versus Trump’s “American System.”

She argues Trump’s own remarks about assassinations point to a pattern of targeting “impactful” leaders, comparing today’s climate to anarchist-era killings around 1900 and the 1901 assassination of William McKinley.

Kokinda ties the attack’s timing to King Charles’ Washington visit, a new book, The Queen and Her Presidents, and a House of Lords/Chatham House report on “rebalancing” the UK–US partnership, highlighting UK dependence on the postwar “rules-based order” and concerns about a lasting US shift under Trump.

Former Senior NIAID Official Indicted for Concealing Federal Records During COVID-19 Pandemic

“These allegations represent a profound abuse of trust at a time when the American people needed it most — during the height of a global pandemic,” said Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. “As alleged in the indictment, Dr. Morens and his co-conspirators deliberately concealed information and falsified records in an effort to suppress alternative theories regarding the origins of COVID-19. Government officials have a solemn duty to provide honest, well-grounded facts and advice in service of the public interest — not to advance their own personal or ideological agendas.”

(…) Federal prosecutors said they plan to prove former FBI Director James Comey’s intent through witness testimony, documents, and other evidence as he faces charges tied to an Instagram post authorities say threatened President Donald Trump.

While responding to questions about how the government will establish intent, Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said prosecutors will rely on standard tools used in criminal cases.

“You prove intent with witnesses, with documents, and the defendant himself, to the extent it is appropriate,” Blanche said.

Blanche declined to preview specific evidence but emphasized the case is the result of a lengthy investigation, noting the alleged conduct dates back to May 2025 and was examined for months before charges were brought. (Read more: Fox News, 2026)  (Archive) (Indictment)

Press Conferences

James Comey’s Instagram post. (Credit: James Comey)

BREAKING: DOJ sources tell me prosecutors are pursuing a “forfeiture action” in relation to James Comey’s alleged felonies because they believe Comey posted the “86” Trump threat to also help drum up sales of a forthcoming book. Comey posted the image five (5) days before the May 20, 2025, release of his new crime novel. Controversy over the posting thrust Comey back into the headlines and drew potential book buyers to his Instagram and X accounts where he heavily promoted the book.

According to the Comey indictment, “Upon conviction, the defendant shall forfeit to the United States any property, real or personal, which constitutes or is derived from proceeds traceable to the said offense.”

Too many people are either ignorant of the facts, or being obtuse as relates to Comey’s “8647” (in shells!) Instagram post.

It was not a simple “one-off” post. Faulty premise and factually incorrect.

So everyone comparing it to Jack Posobiec’s 2022 tweet of “8646” is not comparing comparables.

Also, not an irrelevant factor – Jack is not the former Director of the FBI!

Posobiec’s tweet was stupid. And I would expect to be investigated and possibly charged if I were to ever post anything so stupid.

That says, now back to it not being a “one-off” possibly ambiguous tweet:

People are either unaware of, or ignoring the context of Comey’s Instagram post. It was not a “one-off”. It was actually the second in a series of three posts, all of which were connected, self-referential, and clearly deliberately so.

Post 1: Comey at the beach, reading his new book, FDR Drive (image attached).

Post 2: 8647 in shells.

Post 3: The summary of his new book which he is reading in Post 1. That summary:

“Garcia believes Buchanan went far beyond the protection of the first amendment when *he singled out his enemies by name* and *suggested “something should be done” about them*. His fans have obliged, killing or grievously, injuring some of his foes.”

Comey is telling you exactly what he is doing.

Reading his book.

Singling out his enemies by name (as close as he can get) – 47 for Trump.

Suggesting “something should be done about them” – 86 for kill or eliminate.

And “his fans have obliged” from his book description that he posted.

All of the elements are there to eliminate any ambiguity as to what common meant – sandwiching his 8647 in shells in between a picture of him reading his book, and a summary of his book – which has to do with calling out enemies by name, suggesting something should be done to them, and his fans obliging.

The indictment is as bare bones as it can possibly get.

I don’t know why. If I were drafting it, I would have included these details. But, according to some American attorneys, the indictment need not include every single allegation in it, just the essential.

And this indictment should have been brought last year. I cannot possibly fathom what took 11 months to investigate.

That said, anyone pretending there’s ambiguity, or pretending to offer serious analysis while ignoring or being unaware of the actual context – now deleted – of what Comey actually did (clearly setting out knowledge and intent) is either ignorant or dishonest. Either way, their opinions should be disregarded.

Comey reads the book he wrote while lounging on the beach. Who does that?

 

April 28, 2026 – Feds raid a Minnesota daycare fraud ring; Walz claims credit; Patel says not so fast

(…) Federal agents executed 22 search warrants across the Twin Cities this morning as part of an ongoing investigation into massive taxpayer-funded fraud schemes involving day care centers, autism programs, Medicaid, and other social services, the very programs Walz’s administration has overseen for years as billions in federal dollars vanished into the pockets of fraudsters.

Walz, clearly desperate to pretend he’s been tough on crime after years of ignoring whistleblowers and letting the scams run wild, rushed out a statement stating:

The FBI Director then dropped this brutal truth bomb on X:

April 29, 2026 – A family of 3 are indicted on federal charges connected to attack on TPUSA reporter Savanah Hernandez

Today, Christopher, Deyanna, and Paige Ostrouchko were indicted by a grand jury for allegedly assaulting journalist and Turning Point USA contributor Savannah Hernandez, while she was lawfully reporting on anti-ICE protests outside a federal building in St. Paul.

Hernandez was allegedly surrounded, physically assaulted, and shoved to the ground — simply because she was identified by the defendants as a conservative journalist. That is NOT “peaceful protest.” These deplorable actions as charged in the indictment will not be tolerated in America, and this Department of Justice will always punish unhinged acts of political violence.

April 28, 2026 – Obama’s Secret Stay Behind Army

Obama’s Secret Stay Behind Army

Obama literally created “The Department of The Deep State” at the flick of a pen. The Senior Executive Service, or “SES” was created on September 19, 1979 during the Carter administration.

It was originally formed to professionalize career civil service, while attracting the nation’s best and brightest in an effort to improve and moderate the management of the federal bureaucracy.

A position within the “SES” is considered the equivalent to general officer or the flag officer ranks in the U.S. Armed Forces. For that reason, they are often referred to as our “civilian generals.”

The SES was to be a corps of non-partisan, career managers who serve as the executive management of federal agencies. Their job being to implement policy, not create it. At least it was until then President Obama changed that with a mere flick of his pen, making SES members nearly impossible to fire, once hired.

To say Obama’s transformation of the SES into an army of political operatives was effective would be a gross understatement.

There are more than 2 million federal employees. And at the top of that pyramid are approximately 8,000 SES (Senior Executive Service) employees who service as the professional managerial class linking our political leaders to the civil service rank and file.

And Barack Obama as president, replaced more than 6,000 members of the 8,000-member SES during his 2 terms, assembling what became a stay-behind army of political operatives.

Here’s a list of the number of SES employees that were embedded in the following government agencies at the end of Obama’s 2nd term in 2016:

Department of Education – 86
Department of Housing & Urban Development – 115
Department of the Air Force – 182
Department of Labor – 200
Department of State – 204
Department of Transportation – 231
Department of Interior – 258
Department of the Army – 261
Department of the Navy – 326
Department of Veterans Affairs – 357
Department of Agriculture – 361
Department of Commerce – 425
Department of the Treasury – 458
Department of Health & Human Services – 468
Department of Defense – 478
Department of Energy – 490
Department of Homeland Security – 639
Department of Justice – 821
All Other Agencies (non-Cabinet agencies) – 1,796

And it wasn’t just a purge of patriots from governmental agencies. Obama’s purge of the military was especially damaging to our national security, as he literally gutted the command structure of the U.S. military.

Cleaning out the filth from decades of infiltration and then Obama’s embedded political operatives has been a long uphill battle in taking back our country and restoring our republic to making America great again.

All roads lead to Obama.

April 29, 2026 – Ron Johnson hearing: Unmasked: How Biden Health Officials Purposely Turned a Blind Eye Toward COVID-19 Vaccine Safety Signals

Today, U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), chairman of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, will hold a hearing entitled, “Unmasked: How Biden Health Officials Purposely Turned a Blind Eye Toward COVID-19 Vaccine Safety Signals.”

In conjunction with the hearing, the chairman released an interim Majority Staff Report, along with approximately 600 pages of records detailing how in early 2021, Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) officials became aware of a new, “state of the art” data mining method that could better detect statistically significant safety signals for adverse events associated with the COVID-19 vaccines. Rather than adopt the “state of the art” method, Biden health officials continued to employ their older data mining method with known limitations that prevented FDA from detecting adverse events.

Key findings from the report include:

  • In 2021, Dr. Ana Szarfman, who at the time was a senior medical officer and safety data mining developer at FDA and helped develop the FDA’s data mining system, made senior FDA officials — including Dr. Peter Marks, who led the FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research — aware of a “superior” data mining method that could adjust for “masking,” a known limitation of the FDA’s current data mining system that hid signals for adverse events. However, senior FDA officials chose not to utilize this more effective methodology.
  • Between March 2021 and July 2021, Dr. Szarfman shared analyses of COVID-19 vaccine adverse event reports using the more effective methodology with FDA officials that, unsurprisingly, detected far more statistically significant safety signals for adverse events associated with COVID-19 vaccines.
    • One analysis identified “49 examples of extreme masking,” including approximately 25 statistically significant safety signals for adverse events that were not previously detected, such as sudden cardiac death, Bell’s palsy, and pulmonary infarction.
    • Other analyses Dr. Szarfman shared identified statistically significant safety signals with higher values for adverse events, including acute myocardial infarction associated with the Moderna and Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines, non-site specific embolism and thrombosis associated with the Janssen and Pfizer vaccines, and death and sudden death associated with the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines.
  • FDA officials appear to have been more concerned with Dr. Szarfman’s efforts than the alarming findings, with Dr. Peter Marks warning Dr. Patrizia Cavazzoni, the then-Director of the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, that Dr. Szarfman’s data mining could “create erroneous conflicts that feed in to anti-vaccination rhetoric.” FDA officials eventually directed Dr. Szarfman to “hold off on creating and sending data mining reports and analyses.”
  • In 2022, FDA and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (“CDC”) officials discussed limiting the distribution of FDA’s weekly data mining reports on COVID-19 vaccines with one CDC official writing, “I think that because of the FOIAs [Freedom of Information Act requests] we may have asked FDA to stop sending these weekly data mining outputs.”

The hearing will be livestreamed on Sen. Johnson’s X account, Rumble, and Subcommittee’s website.

April 29, 2026 – John Thune blocks a permanent ban on Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) and refuses to pass the Save America Act

🚨 RINO JOHN THUNE STABS AMERICA IN THE BACK YET AGAIN: Refuses CBDC Ban in ANY Legislation, Also Declares “NO SAVE AMERICA”

Another day, another warning sign from the Washington establishment.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune has reportedly will BLOCK a permanent ban on Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) in ANY legislation the House sends over, and also “No SAVE America.”

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL)
@RepLuna
, one of the few true fighters left in Congress, dropped this bombshell warning to the nation.

And shortly after Luna’s post, Rep. Tim Burchett
@timburchett
confirmed it on his X account.

This comes as House are desperately trying to protect the American people from the coming CBDC surveillance nightmare.

A Central Bank Digital Currency would give the corrupt Federal Reserve and the Democrat deep state the power to track every transaction you make, freeze your accounts if you buy a gun or attend a Trump rally, and turn the United States into a totalitarian digital prison state.

This is the same technology the Chinese Communist Party uses to enslave its people, and Thune is rolling out the red carpet for it.

April 29, 2026 – New text messages reveal Biden DOJ lawyers fantasized about prosecuting Catholic nuns

Justice Department prosecutors in the Biden administration discussed their desire to target Catholic nuns, text messages shared with The Daily Wire show.

Communications obtained by Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) show Joseph Cooney and Molly Gaston texting one another in February 2021 as they scoured media coverage of January 6. The texts specifically reference a New York Times photo of religious sisters who attended the , wearing traditional habits and veils, as well as big Trump scarves around their necks.

“I would like to take a special assignment of finding and prosecuting them,” Gaston wrote to Cooney.

“I’m with you,” responded Cooney. “Although I’d like to prosecute any nun who still wears the head habit.”

“Hahaha,” his fellow DOJ prosecutor responded.

The Justice Department provided the communications to Grassley as part of his investigation into Arctic Frost, an FBI investigation into Republicans and conservatives. Both Cooney and Gaston went on to serve as top deputies to Special Counsel Jack Smith throughout his Arctic Frost investigation. They now head “Gaston & Cooney PLLC,” and Cooney is running for Congress in Virginia.

(…) Cooney, who did not immediately respond to a request for comment, is now running as a Democrat for a congressional seat in Virginia — specifically Virginia’s 7th congressional district, which is part of the Diocese of Arlington, one of the most traditional Catholic dioceses in the United States serving over 430,000 Catholics in the Northern Virginia area.

He’s running on an overtly anti-Trump platform, telling CNN last week: “Donald Trump needs to be impeached. I’m running for Congress to do it.”

April 30, 2026 – Hakeem Jeffries publicly calls the Supreme Court “illegitimate”

Dan Abrams ripped House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) Thursday for calling the U.S. Supreme Court “illegitimate.”

Jeffries made the comments after the court ruled 6-3 to erode the landmark 1965 Voting Rights Act that gave voters the ability to challenge electoral maps as “racially discriminatory.”

“Today’s ruling by this illegitimate Supreme Court strikes a blow against the Voting Rights Act and is designed to undermine the ability of communities of color all across this country to elect their candidate of choice,” Jeffries said at a Wednesday press conference.

President Donald Trump responded on Truth Social, calling Jeffries “a Low IQ individual, who should not be allowed to talk that way about one of the Greatest Institutions anywhere in the World. He should withdraw the statement, IMMEDIATELY!”

Abrams, the founder of Mediaite and the host of The Dan Abrams Show on SiriusXM’s POTUS channel, called out the ranking Democrat in the House for attacking the credibility of the high court.

“Shame on Hakeem Jeffries! Shame on him for referring to this court as illegitimate!” Abrams said on The Dan Abrams Show. — during a conversation with Sean Trende, senior elections analyst at RealClearPolitics.

“You can disagree with the ruling. You can believe it’s a bad ruling. You can believe it has an impact you disagree with and believe is dangerous. But it is even more dangerous to start calling this court illegitimate. The minute we have partisans on both sides referring to this court as illegitimate, we are going to have no arbiter of anything in this country. You want to talk about a constitutional crisis. It’s gonna come because people will think of the court as illegitimate!” (Read more: Mediaite, 5/3/2026)  (Archive)

April 30, 2026 – Dem Rep suggests Pete Hegseth could be executed for war crimes like NAZI sub captains

In a stunning escalation of partisan rhetoric, Rep. Seth Moulton (D-MA) declared on national television that Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is “guilty” of war crimes — and compared U.S. military operations against drug-smuggling boats to the actions of Nazi submarine captains executed after World War II.

The remarks, delivered Wednesday on CNN’s OutFront, come as the Trump administration presses aggressive action to dismantle narco-terrorist networks flooding America with deadly fentanyl and other poisons.

Instead of backing efforts to secure the homeland, Moulton opted to invoke the language of international tribunals.

(…) The X post capturing the moment quickly went viral, with users reacting in disbelief at a sitting congressman invoking execution rhetoric against a Trump cabinet official.

This isn’t isolated grandstanding. It fits a clear pattern: Democrats framing routine counter-narcotics operations — strikes on vessels tied to designated terrorist organizations like Tren de Aragua operating on known smuggling routes — as criminal acts worthy of prosecution.

Dems Side With NARCO-TERRORISTS: Rep. Himes Spins Sob Story About ‘Terrified Men’

 

Hegseth’s Pentagon has been blunt about the mission: these are lethal, kinetic strikes against narco-terrorists poisoning American communities. Intelligence confirms the targets’ affiliations and routes. Yet Moulton and his allies prefer to romanticize the boat crews as innocent fishermen and demand accountability for those actually fighting the scourge.

Watch: Biden Called For Strike Force To Crush Drug Cartels IN 1989!

The timing is no coincidence. Less than a week after another high-profile political violence incident, Moulton’s Nazi comparison and talk of executions pour gasoline on an already volatile climate. Democrats have repeatedly shown they view Trump administration officials not as legitimate leaders chosen by voters, but as targets for lawfare, congressional harassment, and public demonization.

This rhetoric reveals the left’s playbook in the post-2024 era. Unable to win at the ballot box on issues like border security and drug interdiction, they reach for the DOJ, the media, and inflammatory accusations to delegitimize and destroy political opponents.

Seth Moulton, you pathetic, boot-licking disgrace.

You went on national TV, wrapped yourself in your Marine record, and straight-up called for executing Pete Hegseth as a “war criminal” You compared him to Nazi U-boat captains who got the rope. A sitting Congressman openly fantasizing about putting a political opponent to death. That’s not rhetoric. That’s deranged bloodlust.

Real Marines don’t do that. You’re a sniveling traitor to the uniform, a power-drunk hack consumed by Trump Derangement Syndrome, and a walking reason why millions no longer trust Democrats with power. You’re not defending anything, you’re normalizing political executions in America.
Disgusting. Sit down, STFU and own what a moral coward you’ve become.
