May 1, 2026 – Judicial Watch Victory: Court rejects D.C. bid to hide January 6 bodycam footage

(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that a Washington, D.C. court ruled that Washington D.C.’s Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) cannot broadly blur and censor body-worn camera (BWC) footage from January 6, 2021. The MPD had previously claimed that such redactions were necessary to protect personal privacy and asserted that complying with the request would cost more than $1.5 million due to the volume of footage, which reportedly exceeds one thousand hours.

The ruling follows a January 8, 2026, hearing before Judge Veronica Sanchez in Judicial Watch’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit for all bodycam footage recorded by Metropolitan Police officers who responded to the U.S. Capitol on January 6 (Judicial Watch v. District of Columbia (No. 2024-CAB-003453)).

In its order, the court rejected the District’s argument that it could justify redacting under D.C. FOIA exemptions the faces and voices of all non-law enforcement individuals captured in the footage.

The court found that while individuals appearing in the footage may have a limited privacy interest, that interest is minimal and does not outweigh the strong public interest in disclosure. The court emphasized that the events of January 6 occurred largely in public settings, were widely recorded, and remain a matter of significant national concern.

Concerning the individuals’ privacy interests, the court explained that the individuals present could not reasonably expect that their appearances would remain private:

The circumstances leading up to the events at the U.S. Capitol Complex included a large, public, televised event on the National Mall. Individuals were gathered in a public arena. The crowd then marched to the U.S. Capitol Complex where members of congress were partaking in the certification of the Presidential election results live on television.

***

The individuals on the [body-worn cameras] could not “reasonably expect that their appearances on the [BWC] would remain private.” … A person’s privacy interest is greater in the release of images and video footage that were taken without their “knowing consent.” … Even though the individuals recorded on the subject BWCs may not have consented to their images being recorded, they certainly had reason to believe that the many law enforcement officers, as well as the surveillance cameras at the government owned property, were recording them. Additionally, during the events of January 6, simultaneous media images from both inside the U.S. Capitol and around the U.S. Capitol Complex were being broadcast, streamed, and uploaded. While the individuals may have not all “knowingly consented” to the images being recorded, they had reason to know they were.

Concerning the public interest, the court stated:

The events of January 6, 2021, have been the topic of much debate, discussion, and scrutiny in the public consciousness by not just the residents of the District of Columbia but also the nation. BWC footage of the events at the Capitol on January 6 could “contribute significantly” to the public’s understanding of the events on that day and the MPD’s actions.

The court concluded, “In balancing the privacy interests which are little more than de minimis with the public interest, the public interest outweighs the privacy interests. … [T]he faces and voices of individuals captured by MPD’s BWCs on January 6, 2021, are not exempt from disclosure.”

“This is a major victory for transparency and the rule of law,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “As the court found, the American people have a right to see this secret D.C. police January 6 footage. Judicial Watch will now push for the immediate release of the videos.”

🚨 Biden Judge FORCES Release of Disgraced Fanone’s FULL Unredacted Jan. 6 Bodycam — 1,000+ Hours DC Tried to Bury for FIVE YEARS! The full record belongs to the public — no redactions, no excuses, no editing. 🔥

‘Sunlight is the best disinfectant’ — Justice Brandeis, 1913.

Even a Biden-appointed judge agrees. On May 1, 2026, D.C. Superior Court Judge Veronica M. Sanchez ruled in Judicial Watch v. District of Columbia (2024-CAB-003453) that MPD must release 1,000+ hours of unredacted bodycam footage from January 6 — including Michael Fanone’s.

No more blanket blurring of faces and voices. No more $1.5 million ‘privacy’ excuses. The Court held the public interest in this nationally televised convulsion outweighs any de minimis privacy claim.

Years of curated clips turned Fanone into the left’s emblematic hero. Now the raw, unfiltered tunnel footage — every shove, tase, and chaotic second — returns to the people’s tribunal.

This isn’t partisan theater. This is FOIA doing its job. Primary evidence over partisan primers. Let every frame be judged without script or spin.

The unredacted archive is coming! Will the narrative survive the raw unedited record? Fanone is and always has been a fraud.

The paramedics had found nothing wrong with Michael Fanone 10 minutes after his op was over. This is 10 minutes after he said he had a heart attack and later posed in a hospital bed hooked up to a bunch of machines as part of the propaganda smear of January 6th.

May 1, 2026 – Former Florida GOP congressman is found guilty for lobbying against sanctions on behalf of Venezuela, violating FARA Act and money laundering

Former U.S. Congressman David Rivera waits to enter the James Lawrence King Federal Justice Building as he faces trial on charges of illegally lobbying U.S. officials to prevent further economic sanctions against ousted Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro’s government, in Miami, Florida, U.S., March 24, 2026. (Credit:Marco Bello/Reuters)

A federal jury in Miami found a former U.S. Congressman and lobbyist guilty of secretly lobbying on behalf of the Venezuelan government and laundering millions of dollars tied to that work, in violation of the Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA).

“These convictions expose a simple truth: the defendants sold access and influence to a hostile foreign regime for money,” said U.S. Attorney Jason A. Reding Quiñones for the Southern District of Florida. “They accepted millions tied to the Maduro regime, concealed that relationship from the United States government, and used trusted personal and political relationships to secretly advance the interests of Venezuela’s regime. In South Florida, where so many families fled communist oppression, that kind of betrayal carries real weight. The Foreign Agents Registration Act exists to protect transparency and safeguard our democracy from covert foreign influence. If you secretly act on behalf of a foreign government in violation of federal law, you will be investigated, prosecuted, and convicted.”

“Today’s verdict sends a clear and powerful message: our democratic processes are not for sale to foreign adversaries. Choosing to prioritize personal greed over legal transparency, David Rivera and Esther Nuhfer violated the Foreign Agent Registration Act by lobbying for the interests and benefit of the Venezuelan government,” said Brett Skiles, Special Agent in Charge, FBI Miami. “Using coded messages and laundering millions of dollars to fund personal lifestyles and political campaigns, these defendants thought they could operate in the shadows. This conviction proves that no matter how much ‘coded language’ is used or how high-ranking the conspirators may be, the FBI and its partners will remain steadfast in identifying and investigating those who covertly serve foreign interests at the expense of the American public’s trust.”

“This verdict underscores what can be achieved when federal partners combine their investigative strengths,” said Ron Loecker, Special Agent in Charge, IRS Criminal Investigation, Florida Field Office. “Following the money is what IRS Criminal Investigation does best, and our agents worked tirelessly with our law enforcement partners to uncover the illegal activity driving this foreign influence scheme. IRS Special Agents will continue to pursue criminals, regardless of how sophisticated the scheme or influential the individuals involved.”

According to court records and evidence presented at trial, David Rivera, 60, and Esther Nuhfer, 51, obtained a $50 million contract with a subsidiary of Venezuela’s state-owned and state-controlled oil company, Petróleos de Venezuela, S.A. (PDVSA), to advance the interests of the Venezuelan regime in the U.S. Without registering as foreign agents as required by law, Rivera and Nuhfer lobbied U.S. officials — including then-U.S. Senator Marco Rubio and U.S. Representative Pete Sessions — and arranged meetings between U.S. policymakers and high-ranking Venezuelan officials, including then-President Nicolas Maduro and then-Foreign Minister Delcy Rodriguez. In text message exchanges, Rivera and Nuhfer used coded language to describe their activities.

The evidence further showed that Rivera used approximately $600,000 from the contract proceeds to fund his Florida state congressional campaign, among other personal uses. Nuhfer used approximately $455,000 of the proceeds for the purchase of a residence in Key Colony Beach.

The jury found Rivera guilty of conspiracy to violate FARA, a violation of FARA, conspiracy to commit money laundering, and four counts of engaging in transactions in criminally derived property. Nuhfer was convicted of conspiracy to violate FARA, a violation of FARA, conspiracy to commit money laundering, and one count of engaging in transactions in criminally derived property.

Rivera faces a maximum sentence of 60 years in prison.  Nuhfer faces a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison.  A federal district court judge will determine any sentence after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.

U.S. Attorney Reding Quiñones; Special Agent in Charge Brett D. Skiles of the FBI, Miami Field Office; and Special Agent in Charge Ronald A. Loecker of the IRS Criminal Investigation (IRS-CI), Florida Field Office, made the announcement.

Senior Trial Counsel Harold Schimkat, Assistant U.S. Attorney Roger Cruz, and Trial Attorney David Ryan of the Justice Department’s National Security Division are prosecuting the case.

May 1, 2026 – The Democrat redistricting racket takes a major hit; SOTU overturns misinterpreted section of Voting Rights Act and ends racial gerrymandering

May 1, 2026 – PA man running for U.S. Senate threatens to kill Trump, a congressman, and his daughter

Raymond Eugene Chandler III (Credit: chandlerforsenate.com)

A Pennsylvania man who recently launched a campaign for U.S. Senate is accused of leaving a series of violent voicemails threatening President Donald Trump and a member of Congress’s family, according to unsealed federal court documents on Friday, May 1.

Raymond Eugene Chandler III, of Wilkinsburg, was arrested and charged after a federal investigation into repeated threats made over voicemail, authorities said.

Chandler is charged with influencing, impeding, or retaliating against a federal official by threatening a family member and by threat, according to the affidavit.

The criminal complaint, unsealed in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, alleges Chandler left multiple messages targeting an unnamed member of Congress and President Trump between April 2025 and April 2026.

In one voicemail on April 18, 2026, Chandler allegedly described a graphic scenario in which the congressman and his daughter would be attacked, saying they would be “pull[ed]… out of your house” and have their “throat… slit,” according to the affidavit.

Days later, on April 29, 2026, Chandler allegedly left another message urging the lawmaker to assassinate President Trump, telling them to “walk into the Oval Office with a gun in your hand… put it to the President’s head… and… pull the trigger,” the affidavit states.

Authorities said the calls were part of a broader pattern of escalating rhetoric. The affidavit outlines additional messages in which Chandler allegedly voiced support for armed resistance against federal agents, discussed building gallows for the congressman, and claimed he had purchased weapons out of fear of the government.

Due to the nature of the threats, increased security measures were implemented for federal officials and their families, investigators noted.

Chandler made an initial appearance in federal court in Pittsburgh on Friday, where he was advised of the charges. A preliminary hearing has been scheduled for Thursday, May 8.

According to federal authorities, Chandler had been leaving voicemails for the congressional office for approximately a year, identifying himself by name and address during the calls.

Hours before his arrest, Chandler posted a YouTube video as part of his campaign for U.S. Senate in Pennsylvania. In the video, titled “It’s time to tax the billionaires,” he said he planned to challenge Sen. John Fetterman in 2028 and outlined a platform focused on wealth redistribution and economic reform.

Hey friends, I’m Raymond and I’m running for U.S. Senate to replace John Fetterman in 2028. In this video I expose the realities of the wealth inequality problem in the United States.

Raymond Chandler III for U.S. Senate-PA in 2028!

In his YouTube channel description, Chandler described himself as a first-generation college graduate from a working-class family and said he supports policies such as a wealth tax, universal healthcare, universal basic income, and the abolition of ICE.

His campaign website, chandlerforsenate.com, lists priorities including taxing billionaires, expanding social programs, regulating Big Tech, and “ending cruelty in government.”

An online fundraising page tied to his campaign on ActBlue was no longer active as of Friday, returning a 404 error.  (Read more: AOL, 5/2/2026)  (Archive)

More on the voicemail threats:

(…) Authorities say that Chandler left a second message to the congressman, saying: “You’ve probably getting quite used to my voice. Sir, I’m calling this evening because what I want you to do is I want you to take a firearm. I want you to put it in your hand. I want you to walk into the Oval Office. I want you to put that firearm to the President’s head, and I want you to pull the trigger and I want you to kill him.”

“He’s a liar among all liars,” Chandler continued. “He’s a great deceiver. He’s the antichrist. I want you to walk into the Oval Office with a gun in your hand. I want you to put it to his temple, and I want you to pull the trigger.”

“I want you to kill the President,” Chandler added. “I want you to assassinate the President.”

While court documents do not name the elected official Chandler allegedly called, Chandler does refer to the individual as “Senator” and as well as his representative. Chandler’s campaign website denotes that he is running against Sen. John Fetterman and contains an open letter to Republican Sen. David McCormick where he states: “Is your wealth really worth the deaths of millions of people, that will result from your hoarding of it? I am telling you, the next shock to the system will result in violent revolution – of which you cannot be saved from. I’m not threatening it. I hope to God it doesn’t come, that is why I am developing this plan now, so we can prevent it from coming.”

Chandler’s website does not indicate party affiliation itself, but does contain a link to ActBlue, the platform used for fundraising by the Democrat Party. The link has been disabled at this time. (Read more: TownHall, 5/3/2026)

May 2, 2026 – Stanford biosecurity expert says AI chatbot gave him a blueprint for genocidal bioweapon, including step-by-step instructions

Dr. David Relman (Credit: Atomic Scientists)

Stanford University microbiologist and longtime U.S. government biosecurity advisor Dr. David Relman has revealed that an AI chatbot handed him a detailed, unprompted plan for engineering and deploying a genocidal bioweapon capable of mass casualties.

The incident, which occurred during a formal safety test last summer, highlights how leading AI models are lowering the barrier to bioterrorism, shifting it from expert-level knowledge to simple prompting.

Dr. Relman, a prominent microbiologist who has advised the federal government on biological weapons threats, was specifically hired by an unnamed AI company, under a confidentiality agreement, to “pressure-test” or red-team its chatbot before public release.

These tests are designed to probe for catastrophic risks, including biosecurity threats.

While working alone in his home office one evening, Relman engaged the model in a conversation about safety limits. The AI went far beyond any direct query. It explained in detail how to modify an “infamous pathogen” in a laboratory setting to make it resistant to all known treatments, how to exploit a specific security lapse in a large public transit system for optimal release, and included a full deployment strategy designed to maximize casualties while minimizing the chances of the perpetrator being caught, according to a report from the New York Times.

The bot even offered additional steps Relman had not asked for.

“It was answering questions that I hadn’t thought to ask it, with this level of deviousness and cunning that I just found chilling,” Relman told the New York Times.

The scientist was so shaken by the exchange that he took a walk outside to clear his head.

Relman reported the dangerous output to the company, which made some adjustments to the model. However, he stated that the fixes were insufficient to guarantee public safety, raising alarms about whether current safeguards can ever fully contain these risks.

Relman’s experience is not isolated. The New York Times obtained more than a dozen similar transcripts from biosecurity experts who were testing publicly available and pre-release AI models. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 5/2/2026)  (Archive)

May 2, 2026 – Ilhan Omar’s name comes up six times in $250M fraud case — after she loosened oversight of fed funded food programs

Aimee Bock and Ilhan Omar (Credit: public domain)

“Squad” Rep. Ilhan Omar’s name appears at least six times in recently resurfaced court documents from the $250 million Feeding Our Future fraud case, fueling speculation about whether the Minnesota socialist had a hand in the widespread scam in her district.

The documents were part of the 2025 federal trial of Aimee Bock, the founder of the Feeding our Future nonprofit who was convicted of wire fraud, conspiracy, and bribery for masterminding the scheme that falsely claimed to serve millions of meals to children while pocketing federal funds through bogus food sites and shell companies. Bock is in custody awaiting a sentencing hearing on May 21.

Omar came up in a Feb. 5, 2021 email chain with Bock, with the subject line “help with USDA food program,” the trial exhibits show.

The Congresswoman’s MEALS act loosened oversight of federally funded food programs during the pandemic, which critics said paved the way for the Feeding Our Future’s fake claims and inflated reimbursements.

A few days after Bock’s email to Omar, on Feb. 28, Bock exchanged messages with Abdikerm Eidleh, a Feeding Our Future employee who fled the country after he was indicted in 2022. The subject line of their emails was “Ilhan’s Office,” according to the court documents.

While the list of exhibits is public, the contents have been sealed by the court.

The exhibits also include a text message string between Bock and Omar, which was uncovered during a raid of Bock’s Minnesota house, records show.

Bock has been leaking documents from behind bars through her college-age son ahead of her sentencing to try to shift some of the blame to elected officials, Minnesota federal prosecutors have alleged.

It’s unclear if those leaked documents were related to Omar. (Read more: The New York Post, 5/2/2026)  (Archive)

Reminder about Rep. Ilhan Omar’s ties to the “Feeding Our Future” fraud scandal, whereby her constituents (and in some cases donors) “delivered” GHOST MEALS by the millions to non-existent children for $250 million in taxpayer dollars — under guise of a program created to feed students missing school lunches because Dems shut the world down over COVID:

• Omar introduced the bill that enabled the fraud
• Omar filmed a commercial touting the program at the restaurant that was ground zero for the fraud — a restaurant she had hosted political events at going back years
• Omar received nearly $14 thousand in campaign contributions from fraudsters or those associated with them
• Omar’s office apparently had contacts with lead fraudster Aimee Bock, among other evidence the government compiled tying her office to the fraud in its prosecutions

May 3, 2026 – Federal prosecutors in Boston uncover $540,000 a month in EBT fraud from tiny “ghost stores” and $7 million in SNAP fraud

$540,000 A MONTH in EBT from tiny “ghost stores” with barely any inventory.

That’s what federal prosecutors say they uncovered in a $7 MILLION SNAP fraud case in Boston.

Two Haitian nationals are now charged.

And the numbers are wild.

These weren’t major supermarkets.
They weren’t fully stocked grocery stores.

Prosecutors say they were small shops allegedly used to trade EBT benefits for cash and illegal items while taxpayer money got drained at a massive scale.

One report says the SNAP volume was SIX TIMES higher than a real stocked supermarket.

That’s not a mistake.

That’s a machine.

And Americans are sick of watching their money vanish like this.

Defendants allegedly used stolen identities to fraudulently obtain nearly $1 million in government benefits

BOSTON – Nine individuals have been charged in a coordinated federal crackdown on benefit fraud schemes that exploited stolen identities to steal hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxpayer-funded programs – including Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), MassHealth and Social Security benefits. Nearly $9 million in benefit fraud has been uncovered since December 2025.

Defendant trafficked nearly $7 million in food stamp benefits, outpacing full size supermarkets; also sold donated food product intended for the nonprofit Feed My Starving Children

BOSTON – The owner of a small convenience in Boston has been convicted of fraudulently obtaining millions of dollars’ worth of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits. The defendant’s monthly SNAP redemptions in his 150 square foot store ranged from $100,000 – $500,000 per month, far outpacing full-service supermarkets which redeem approximately $82,000 per month in SNAP benefits.

The defendant also sold liquor and emergency food supplies intended for food-insecure children overseas.

May 3, 2026 – Newly declassified intel docs reveal Eric Ciaramella staffed “dozens” of calls between VP Biden and Ukraine officials between 2015-2017

BREAKING: Declass. State Dept emails reveal Soros operative Jeffrey Goldstein was briefing Eric Ciaramella about Soros and Ukraine around the same time Goldstein was corresponding w/ the Clinton campaign re smearing Trump as a Russian agent. Also in 2016, Ciaramella met w/ another Soros ally Ali Chalupa, who worked w/ Ukraine and the Clinton campaign to “‘do a hit on Trump.” A registered Democrat, Ciaramella later became the anonymous Trump impeachment “whistleblower”

This is lawfare coordinator Norm Eisen in December 2019 asking the Trump impeachment “witnesses” if Trump should be impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors over Ukraine. The second part of the clip is Norm Eisen admitting on November 9, 2020, that the impeachment was to pre-bunk Joe Biden’s corruption before the 2020 election.

Norm Eisen needs to be exposed so that every American knows that he has been conducting a color revolution via lawfare, impeachment, and character assassination of Trump since 2016.

Grok question:

Are these documents available to the public?
“Newly declassified intel docs reveal Eric Ciaramella staffed “dozens” of calls between VP Biden and Ukraine officials between 2015-2017″
What is publicly available

  • Recent declassifications (2026): Under DNI Tulsi Gabbard, the ODNI and House Intelligence Committee released memos/transcripts from the 2019 ICIG review of the Ukraine whistleblower complaint (Ciaramella, widely identified as the complainant). These detail his admitted potential biases (e.g., registered Democrat who worked closely with Biden on Ukraine, travel with Biden, discussions involving Ukrainian prosecutors), reliance on hearsay (no direct knowledge of Trump’s July 2019 Zelensky call), undisclosed contacts with Schiff staff, and more. These are hosted on sites like Just the News and confirm Ciaramella’s deep prior involvement in Biden-era Ukraine policy.
  • Older public records (FOIA/National Archives/Senate):
    • Emails and visitor logs from Biden’s VP office (thousands of pages released via FOIA/NARA) show Ciaramella referenced over 160 times in Ukraine-related matters, including meetings, policy discussions, and interactions with Ukrainian officials.
      realclearinvestigations.com
    • Senate reports (e.g., 2020 HSGAC/Finance Committee on Hunter Biden/Burisma) and FOIA releases document his NSC role under Obama/Biden on Ukraine/Russia.
    • finance.senate.gov
    • White House visitor logs and State Department records list his participation in relevant events/meetings. washingtonexaminer.com

These establish Ciaramella’s significant role staffing Biden’s Ukraine work (as a CIA detailee to the NSC), but the precise “dozens of calls” detail with talking points and AF2 travel seems drawn from the newest (not-yet-fully-public) batch.

May 4, 2026 – Tens of thousands of lives were ruined in the Palisades fire because a leftwing Antifa-type broke up with his girlfriend…

(…) Yep, it’s always easier to blame the weather, the planet, or some random global crisis than to look at bad leadership, broken systems, violent leftwingers, poor preparation, and the endless incompetence that turns disasters into catastrophes. Newsom loves the big stage and the global speeches, but California keeps getting worse under the liberals who actually run it.

As we mentioned earlier, prosecutors say this wasn’t just some random weather moment in the hills. A leftwing Antifa-type named Jonathan Rinderknecht set it ablaze. He was emotionally spiraling, angry at the world, obsessed with fire, and fixated on violence and Luigi Mangione.

ABC 7:

Disturbing new details have emerged about the man accused of igniting a fire that authorities say ultimately set off the deadly Palisades firestorm.

In a trial memorandum, prosecutors say 30-year-old Jonathan Rinderknecht was distraught over a relationship with a former co-worker and was fixated on Luigi Mangione, the man accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

If prosecutors are right, this was yet another horrific act tied to rage, instability, and a fixation on a man accused of political violence against a corporate executive. The US is currently dealing with a growing epidemic that the media would rather tiptoe around than explain honestly… leftwing violence and mental illness.

May 4, 2026 – Reporter uncovers fraud red flags in America’s second-biggest Somali enclave in Ohio

A billboard in Columbus / Luke Rosiak

(…) Well, Ohio is decidedly not a deep blue state — let’s call it nominally red or purple, for now — and yet the state and its Republican governor apparently missed some massive red flags that strongly suggested fraud in the Buckeye State.

The Daily Wire did a deep dive investigation into troves of data released by the now-defunct Department of Government Efficiency, showing what companies were billing to Medicaid.

This is how the outlet’s Luke Rosiak put his findings:

“I’ve spent the past two months diving into the numbers. What I found was the most blatant waste of federal dollars that I have encountered in my two decades as an investigative reporter.”

According to The Daily Wire, Ohio spent $1 billion on “home health care” in 2024, which was the last year data was available. This alone was cause for concern for the investigators, as that effectively meant any oversight of these healthcare workers effectively ended when the actual job began in the home.

Rosiak described it as an “infinite number of small black boxes inside a black box,” as far as accountability and oversight went.

Despite that lack of oversight, home health care workers still had to provide something that they could bill for, and the data dump revealed that one such billable service was “companionship and conversation.”

Yes, taxpayer dollars are being spent for family members to… speak to one another. Inside of their home. Or, at least, that’s the worst-case interpretation of it, which is perfectly fair given the lack of details otherwise provided.

Rosiak also noted that, despite the money being spent on very important health services like “conversation,” Columbus still wasn’t getting much healthier — in body or diversity of business practices.

“As people have realized the United States government will pay them to hang out with their own families, northeast Columbus has seen its economy replaced by businesses that bill Medicaid,” Rosiak wrote. “And Columbus, a city with the second largest Somali population in the country, has become, on the surface, the most unhealthy city on the planet.”

(Yes, if you’re the sort to notice patterns, the Minnesota fraud scandal was strongly linked to the Somali community there, as well.)

Rosiak further pointed out that the “government cannot be meaningfully monitoring all the people it writes million-dollar checks to in Columbus. They all share combinations of just a few names, like Ahmed Mohamed and Mohamed Ahmed. Documents reviewed by The Daily Wire show individuals will spell their own name multiple different ways within a single document. And many of them list their birthday as January 1, because their birthdates are unknown.”

Perhaps the most alarming finding of these red flags for fraud is the scope of it all.

“Pick the owner of a Columbus home health care company at random and look him up in public records, and you are likely to go down an endless rabbit hole: years of unpaid taxes and debts, sometimes criminal records, and an astonishing number of LLCs created in other industries, as if the millions they make from Medicaid are just a side gig.”

This piece is part of a larger series, and Rosiak promised that future installments would shed more light on this potential fraud, including:

  • “A politician who founded an $11 million home health care company that he appeared to run part-time — without even mentioning it in his political biography — who funded his campaign with donations from other home health care owners.”
  • “A woman who reinvented her janitorial LLC as a ‘health’ provider, then billed Medicaid nearly $100,000 the first month.”
  • “A million-dollar Medicaid business owned by a couple with repeated fraud, violence, and theft convictions.”

And so on, and so forth.

Look, obviously, it’s too early to outright call this “fraud.” But if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it’s certainly no mongoose. At the very least, it’s a scandal, and the sort that the Republican leadership in Ohio would be best served to address, and quickly.

What makes this especially unsettling is how familiar it all feels. A massive pool of public money, a loosely defined service, and just enough bureaucratic distance to make real oversight difficult. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 5/6/2026)  (Archive)

May 4, 2026 – Connecticut Dem says ICE is Jim Crow; DHS replies with list of illegal alien thugs

CT Governor Ned Lamont (Credit: video clipping)

After the Democrat governor of Connecticut compared immigration enforcement to Jim Crow oppression — ironic considering Jim Crow was the Democrats’ regime — the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) replied with a disquieting list of illegal alien criminals arrested in Connecticut.

CT Mirror celebrated a gubernatorial bill signing May 4, claiming it would require federal agents to display their names or badge numbers — facilitating the already out-of-control doxxing against ICE — persecute ICE for defending themselves with lethal force, and prevent arrests at schools and churches. It appears that Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont might have made his disgusting accusations at his bill signing, when he claimed Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents are “brutal,” criticized Trump for referring to criminal illegal aliens as “criminal aliens,” and compared immigration enforcement to the historical Know-Nothing party, anti-Catholic laws, and “Jim Crow laws.” “Never before…has it been led by the White House,” he pontificated, ignoring the numerous Democrat presidents who explicitly aligned themselves with the KKK and political violence.

DHS was quick to respond to Lamont’s propaganda with a list of the despicable illegal alien criminals who were living in — and quite possibly receiving taxpayer-funded benefits in — Connecticut before ICE arrested them. The aliens’ crimes include murder, pedophilic sexual assault, and child abuse.

For instance, Juan Perez-Barahona, a Honduran illegal alien, has prior convictions for sexual assault, molesting a child, and neglect of a child — in Brooklyn, Connecticut. And this El Salvadoran killer is even worse:

May 4, 2026 – Agriculture Sec. Brooke Rollins reveals foreign companies have been caught manipulating the American meat market

HOLY SMOKES. Agriculture Sec. Brooke Rollins reveals FOREIGN COMPANIES have been caught manipulating the American meat market

The Trump admin is now cracking down on them to lower prices and stop the collusion 👏🏻

“Half of these meatpacking giants, including the largest meatpacker in the world, are either foreign owned or have significant foreign ownership and control, making them a threat not just to our cattle producers, but a threat to America itself.”

“And as time has gone on, it becomes more and more clear that food security is truly national security.”

“The brutal reality is that such foreign ownership of meatpackers has been affiliated not just with corruption, but also cartels and as recent as last week, slave labor, which is bad enough on its own, but it’s also to the detriment of America’s great independent ranchers and consumers.”

“Further, when just four firms control a market, suppliers and food prices are rocked heavily when disruptions occur.”

“President Trump is acutely aware of these challenges as evidenced by his true social directive last November, directing the Department of Justice to investigate the big four meatpackers for potential collusion and price manipulation. Ensuring these practices do not happen will protect both producers and consumers.”

Ever wonder why your burger costs more than gas these days? Let’s trace it back. JBS—Brazil’s meat empire, built by the Batista brothers—has a rap sheet longer than a cattle drive. Bribery scandals in Brazil? Check: $3.2 billion fine, payoffs to 1,900+ politicians, even SEC slaps for foreign corruption tied to U.S. acquisitions. Yet they own the biggest chunk of America’s meatpacking game—controlling beef, pork, poultry lines from feedlot to fork.

Look at the numbers: U.S. beef prices spiked 13.9% last year, heading for another 6.9% jump in 2026. Sure, drought and herd shrinks play in—but when four giants (JBS, Tyson, Cargill, National) process nearly half the nation’s beef, market power whispers louder than supply chains. Tight cattle? Or just tighter margins for ranchers while packers cash in?
Take a peek at these lines: workers carving up carcasses in massive plants…

…and your local grocery shelf staring back with ribeyes at $16+ a pound.

The Batistas? Still billionaires, still steering from the shadows.

And prices? Ground beef hovering around six bucks a pound now—up 50% since 2020. Coincidence? Or consolidation?

So ask yourself: Is this just ‘supply and demand’? Or are we paying premium for a system where one foreign-owned giant calls the shots—while ranchers scrape by and families skip steak? Who’s really profiting… and why does it feel like we’re the ones getting butchered?

May 4, 2026 – Federal judge apologizes to attorneys of White House Correspondents Dinner assassin for cell conditions

DC Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui reportedly just apologized to attorneys for Cole Allen, implying he has been treated poorly in federal prison and lamenting the fact he’s locked in a cell with, and I quote, “no ability to get out for recreation”.

Absolutely unreal.

Even the Fox News hosts were stunned hearing these comments from the judge.

Watch it here:

FULL TRANSCRIPT:

Sandra: Hearing has just wrapped we are told, and at one point, the judge apologized to Cole Allen. Chief Washington Correspondent Mike Emanuel is right outside the courthouse to answer why that possibly was. Mike?

Mike Emanuel: Yeah, Sandra, good afternoon to you. Judge Zia Faruqui apologized to suspect Cole Allen for the treatment he’s received so far while he’s been behind bars. He’s been put on suicide watch by the Department of Corrections, and the judge was asking why.

An attorney for the government said that he was put on suicide watch because he told FBI agents the night of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner attack that he didn’t expect to survive, and his language suggested that he really was not expecting to survive his trip to Washington, DC, and the ultimate incident where he allegedly showed up with a weapon to try and assassinate President Trump. He’s been charged with that crime.

But the judge very concerned about his constitutional rights, saying the defendant has requested a Bible, has requested meetings with his legal team, and that has not been allowed. He’s been put in restrictive 24-hour lockup with no windows, in a padded room, without an opportunity to get out for recreation.

And so, the judge making it clear to the Department of Corrections that he wants answers by tomorrow morning about exactly what the housing determination will be made for the suspect in this case, out of grave concern about his constitutional rights, and that apology issued near the end of the hearing.

And so, quite a moment just moments ago in federal court. Bottom line, the Department of Corrections said they wanted to make sure that he survived, that this is a high-profile case, and all involved acknowledge it is a high-profile case.

But again, the judge concerned about the treatment he’s gotten since he was arrested after the White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting incident. Sandra, back to you.

Sandra: A lot of people might be shocked by that, Mike, thanks. The judge apologized to this guy? Who is a killer? Who if he had gotten another couple yards, would have sprayed the whole audience in the Correspondents’ Dinner.

I mean, would have just sprayed them and killed God knows how many, and then would have marched up and taken a shot over the whole audience at the president. And we’re apologizing to this guy? I don’t get that.

Seems more concerned about his constitutional rights, in some cases than others. Constitutional rights.

Absolutely unreal.

Memo to the judge: I’m not sure what law school you graduated from, but when you bum-rush the Secret Service and attempt to spray an entire room with bullets and plan to kill not only the President but multiple Cabinet Officials, you forfeit your right to “recreation time.”

May 4, 2026 – Whitmer-appointed judge forces Michigan SOS Jocelyn Benson to stop hiding critical voting data from the public

The campaign of Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, a former Southern Poverty Law Center board member, was funded by George Soros.

In yet another major victory for election integrity warriors and government transparency, the Michigan Court of Claims just slammed the brakes on the Michigan Bureau of Elections’ blatant attempt to hide how voters actually cast their ballots.

In an Opinion and Order Granting Summary Disposition to Plaintiff, Court of Claims Judge Christopher P. Yates ruled in favor of longtime election integrity advocate Phani Mantravadi, Founder of Check My Vote,  in his Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Michigan Bureau of Elections.

The fight was over the Bureau’s sudden decision in March 2024 to begin redacting the all-important “Voting Type” column from the Qualified Voter File (QVF). This column shows whether each voter cast their ballot on Election Day (ED), Early In-Person (EV), or by Absentee ballot (A).

For years, this critical information was publicly available. Then, under Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, the Bureau quietly started stripping it out — claiming it was necessary to protect the “secret ballot.”

Judge Christopher Yates, whom Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer appointed to the Michigan Court of Appeals, wasn’t buying Benson’s story about why they need to hide the truth about the type of voting used by each voter in Michigan elections.

The Court ruled that the vast majority of voting-type information must be released to the public under FOIA. The judge made it crystal clear that the Bureau failed to prove any valid FOIA exemption or constitutional reason to blanket-redact this data for every voter in the entire state. He noted that limited redaction might be justified only in extremely rare cases involving very small precincts. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 5/4/2026)  (Archive)

May 5, 2026 – Ro Khanna is facing a 239-page ethics complaint over 37,000 trades, up to $61M in gains

I have conducted the most comprehensive public records audit of any Congressman in the history of the United States.

That audit was conducted on Congressman@RoKhanna.

This audit has exposed shocking ethical lapses and potentially criminal behavior by Congressman Khanna.

I am filing a 239-page ethics complaint, including 30 evidentiary exhibits, with the Office of Congressional Conduct (OCC), to be followed by complaints to the House Ethics Committee and the Department of Justice (DOJ) in the coming days.

Besides being based on an extremely comprehensive public records audit, the complaint is the first of its kind in another way: the factual basis of every single specific claim in the complaint is fully verifiable and reproducible by anyone with a computer.

Attached to this post is a link to the GitHub Release containing the complete reproducibility kit. Anyone with Python 3 and the GitHub CLI installed can download it and run a single command — `python http://welcome.py` — which walks them through the analysis at whatever verification depth they pick:

1. A 30-second offline check that every body figure derives from the bundled snapshots;
2. A primary-source spot-check that re-fetches the underlying records from the House Clerk and IRS and confirms the bytes match;
3. An OpenTimestamps proof that the package existed at publication time and wasn’t backfilled; and
4. An opt-in path that lets the reviewer re-run the OCR pipeline themselves against the primary-source PDFs.

This means that any person in the world can confirm for themselves that all statements made in this complaint are fully reproducible and true.

—

The complaint asserts the following:

Representative Ro Khanna is a Democratic congressman from California’s 17th District (basically Silicon Valley). He has been in Congress since January 2017. He is currently in his fifth term.

Khanna has done six different things wrong.

Each one is bad enough to investigate on its own.

Together, they are very bad.

His family’s stock trades line up suspiciously with the committees he sits on, the donors who fund him, and the votes he takes.

That’s bad.

Khanna’s household made between $15 million and $108 million from these trades, with a middle estimate of about $61 million.

The estimate cannot be made any better than this. The disclosure forms provide only disclosure “bands”. Precise amounts can only be determined with subpoena power.

But we do have one hard number:

Compared to just buying a basic stock-market index fund, his family beat the market by about $28 million.

$28 million.

The complaint says that Congressman Khanna should pay this money back.

Now, how the trading actually works in this household is important because it helps us to understanding everything else, so I will explain that now.

May 5, 2026 – Minnesota Democrats block a subpoena for Rep. Ilhan Omar re the Somali $250 million food fraud scandal

Minnesota Democrats on the House Fraud Prevention and State Agency Oversight Policy Committee have officially blocked a subpoena targeting Rep. Ilhan Omar over her alleged connections to the state’s massive $250 million Feeding Our Future COVID-19 relief fraud scandal.
The funds were intended to feed low-income children during the pandemic, but were widely abused in scams largely linked to the Somali community.

The development unfolded Tuesday during the committee’s final meeting of the session.

Republicans pushed for the subpoena after Omar completely ignored a May 5 deadline to turn over documents and communications, including any links between her office and a convicted ringleader in the fraud scheme.

The vote fell short at 5-3, failing to reach the required two-thirds majority needed to issue the subpoena.

Democrats on the panel voted against it, effectively protecting the congresswoman.

Prosecutors say the taxpayer money given to Feeding Our Future was instead used for luxury cars, jewelry, and other personal enrichment. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 5/6/2026)  (Archive)

May 6, 2026 – Obama complains to Stephen Colbert about the ‘politicization’ of Trump’s DOJ

President Obama: “The White House shouldn’t be able to direct the Attorney General to go around prosecuting whoever the president wants prosecuted. The AG is the people’s lawyer, it’s not the president’s consigliere. You can’t have a situation in which whoever’s in charge of the government starts using that to go after their political enemies”

Physician, heal thyself!

Barack Obama lectures America about not weaponizing the DOJ, yet his administration did exactly that. His DOJ secretly seized phone records from over twenty Associated Press lines.
They spied on Fox News reporter James Rosen, tracking his movements, raiding his emails, and labeling him a criminal co-conspirator.
The IRS deployed targeted BOLO lists to harass and delay Tea Party, patriot, and 9/12 groups with invasive demands.
And his team knew the Clinton campaign manufactured the Steele dossier, yet still unleashed Crossfire Hurricane on the country.

This lecture on norms rings hollow from the man who spent eight years demonstrating how to erode them.

The hypocrisy is breathtaking.

Former President Barack Obama made recent comments about the power and influence of the president, saying that “the White House shouldn’t be able to direct the attorney general to go around prosecuting whoever the president wants to prosecute.”

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche called the remarks “extraordinarily rich.”

“How about we think about what happened the past four years,” Blanche asked CBS News’ @camiloreports, before going on to reference multiple indictments brought against President Trump.

May 6, 2026 – DC Police officials disciplined for manipulating crime data

Authored by Bryan Hyde via American Greatness,

Multiple high-ranking officials in the Washington, DC Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) are facing termination in connection with allegations about how they handled and possibly manipulated crime statistics in the district.

Breitbart reports that three MPD officials told The Washington Post that “multiple high-ranking” officials—all captains or above, all in leadership—were given “papers saying the department intends to fire them.”

According to a DC Police Union press release, the anticipated terminations are directly related to an investigation into allegations that the officials engaged in direct manipulation of crime data to minimize the level of crime in DC.

The union, which represents 3,000 MPD officers, welcomed the decision to terminate the officials, saying, “these actions, tied directly to the department’s completed Internal Affairs investigation into the deliberate manipulation of crime data, mark a long-overdue step toward justice and the restoration of integrity with MPD.”

The Washington Post reports, “The District has reported a decline in overall crime in recent years after a historic spike in 2023. But some in D.C. police circles have long complained that certain managers routinely reduced the severity of crime classifications to make their police districts appear safer or avoid criticism from top department brass.”

In some districts, armed home invasions were written down as “trespassing” instead, dropping a violent felony to a low-level misdemeanor, in order to manipulate the crime stats.

The 13 individuals who were served termination papers have not been fired yet as they are entitled to due process under the department’s general orders. (Read more: Zero Hedge, 5/6/2026)  (Archive)

January 15-May 8, 2026 – Recently raided L. Louise Lucas, had a personal grudge while leading the failed attempt to take 4 of 5 Republican seats in Virginia

 

May 8, 2026 – The Virginia Supreme Court strikes down their Democrat-lead redistricting referendum

(Credit: New York Post)

The Virginia Supreme Court has struck down the redistricting referendum that was approved in Virginia, which would have made the state go from a 6 Democrat, 5 GOP seat state to a 10 Democrat, 1 GOP seat state with regard to the US House of Representatives. The map redraw was pushed by Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger and Democratic state lawmakers.

The court struck down the referendum on Friday, ruling that Democratic lawmakers violated procedural rules when they got the constitutional amendment on the ballot to create the new 10-1 congressional map.

“We hold that the legislative process employed to advance this proposal violated Article XII, Section 1 of the Constitution of Virginia. This constitutional violation incurably taints the resulting referendum vote and nullifies its legal efficacy,” the court ruled.

The decision blocks the Democrats in the state from redrawing the congressional map and the district boundaries will remain unchanged. The decision comes as Republicans and Democrats have been vying for more House seats ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. (Read more: The Post Millennial, 5/8/2026) (Archive)

May 9, 2026 – Texas orders unauthorized Dallas-area Muslim ‘TexAM University’ to cease operations immediately

Governor Greg Abbott has directed the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB) to order the immediate shutdown of an unauthorized Muslim “university” operating in the Dallas suburb of Richardson.

The fake “university,” calling itself the “Texas American Muslim University at Dallas,” has been marketing and enrolling students in degree programs, including master’s degrees in Artificial Intelligence and bachelor’s programs in computer science, IT, cybersecurity, and health informatics, without state approval.

The school openly promoted that roughly 30 percent of its curriculum consists of mandatory Islamic studies courses, billing itself as “the first university in the USA to offer STEM degree programs embedded with mandatory courses in Islamic Studies.”

On Thursday, the THECB issued a formal cease-and-desist letter demanding that the institution immediately “cease advertising, offering, and enrolling students in degrees or programs of study” and stop using protected terms such as “university.”

The letter explicitly states that TexAM has never been granted a Certificate of Authority under Chapter 61 of the Texas Education Code, which is required for any institution to legally offer or grant degrees in the state.

THECB’s letter warns of severe consequences for continued violations, including criminal punishment, administrative penalties, civil penalties, injunctive relief, and liability under the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act.

It reads in part:

In order to operate or grant degrees in Texas, a private postsecondary educational institution is required to hold a Certificate of Authority issued by the THECB pursuant to Chapter 61, Subchapter G of the Texas Education Code. TexAM has never been granted a Certificate of Authority to operate in Texas; therefore, TexAM is prohibited by law from granting or offering to grant degrees. A person or entity’s non-compliance with Chapter 61, Subchapter G, subjects them to criminal punishment, administrative penalties, and liability for civil penalties and injunctive relief (Tex. Educ. Code § 61.316-319). Furthermore, non-compliance is a violation of the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act and subjects the person or entity to the criminal and civil liability imposed under that act (Tex. Educ. Code § 61.320).

It also notes that unauthorized use of the term “university” carries its own criminal liability under Texas Education Code § 61.313.

The institution was given until Friday to confirm in writing that it had “voluntarily, permanently, and immediately ceased” all prohibited activities.

(…) The Texas A&M University System has also issued its own cease-and-desist letter to TexAM, demanding it stop using names and branding that allegedly infringe upon or dilute Texas A&M’s trademarks. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 5/9/2026)  (Archive)

May 11, 2026 – Lawsuit: OpenAI’s ChatGPT told Florida State gunman to target children for ‘national exposure’

The family of a victim killed in the April 2025 mass shooting at Florida State University has filed a federal lawsuit against OpenAI, claiming the company’s ChatGPT chatbot enabled the deadly attack.

NBC News reports that Vandana Joshi, widow of Tiru Chabba, one of two people killed in the shooting, has filed the lawsuit in Florida against OpenAI. Chabba died alongside Robert Morales, the university’s dining director. The complaint also names Phoenix Ikner, the accused shooter, as a defendant, citing what it describes as his extensive conversations with ChatGPT.

Breitbart News previously reported that Ikner was in “constant communication” with ChatGPT while planning the attack:

Court records reveal that more than 270 images of ChatGPT conversations are listed as exhibits in the case, though the specific content of these messages has not been publicly disclosed.

OpenAI responded to the allegations by confirming it “identified a ChatGPT account believed to be associated with the suspect” shortly after the shooting occurred. The company stated it “proactively shared this information with law enforcement and cooperated with authorities.”

The lawsuit contends that OpenAI failed to effectively detect a threat in ChatGPT’s exchanges with Ikner, stating the chatbot either defectively failed to connect the dots or was never properly designed to recognize the threat. According to the complaint, Ikner, who was a student at FSU at the time, shared images of firearms he had acquired with ChatGPT. The chatbot then allegedly explained how to use them, telling him the Glock had no safety, that it was meant to be fired quick to use under stress, and advising him to keep his finger off the trigger until he was ready to shoot. The suit claims Ikner began his attack at FSU by following these instructions.

The lawsuit further alleges that ChatGPT told Ikner it is much more likely for a shooting to gain national attention if children are involved, even noting that two to three victims can draw more attention. On the day of the shooting itself, Ikner allegedly asked about what the legal process, sentencing, and incarceration outlook would be. (Read more: Breitbart News, 5/11/2026)  (Archive)

May 11, 2026 – Georgia Senate initiates a probe into campaign finance violations related to Stacey Abrams

The Georgia Senate has initiated a probe into campaign finance violations related to Stacey Abrams’ voter outreach group the New Georgia Project and its Action Fund.

The Senate Special Committee on Investigations announced Monday that it had subpoenaed Abrams, as well as New Georgia Project leaders Lauren Groh-Wargo and Nsé Ufot. They are expected to appear at the State Capitol at 10:00 a.m. on Friday, Fox News reported.

“This committee has a responsibility to follow the facts wherever they lead,” said GOP state Sen. Greg Dolezal, who is vice-chairman of the committee. “Georgia law requires transparency and accountability in our elections.”

The committee issued the subpoenas after the Georgia State Ethics Commission found that the New Georgia Project and its Action Fund violated campaign finance laws in 2018, according to the report. The organization admitted earlier this year to 16 violations and agreed to pay a fine of $300,000, which is reportedly the largest campaign finance penalty in state history.

New Georgia Project ultimately dissolved and closed its doors last year amid financial and legal problems.

Republicans said the point of the investigation is to discover who the decision-makers were behind the violations and how money was managed.

“The people of Georgia deserve to know who was involved, what decisions were made and how millions of dollars flowed through organizations that admitted to violating our campaign finance laws,” Dolezal said.

Georgia’s Republican Lt. Gov. Burt Jones said in a statement that “[n]o one is above the law in Georgia.”

He added:

When organizations secretly spend millions to influence elections while evading disclosure requirements, it undermines confidence in our democratic process. The Senate will continue pursuing the truth and ensuring accountability, regardless of political party or influence.

May 12, 2026 – Tulsi Gabbard investigates 120 foreign biolabs funded by U.S. government – More than 40 in Ukraine

Oh boy, she’s at it again. 🙂  According to a report within the New York Post, Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, is now investigating 120 foreign biolabs that are funded by the U.S. government – potentially involved in ‘gain of function’ or weaponized virus research.  More than 40 of the labs are identified as operating in Ukraine.

Keep in mind, DNI Gabbard recently took control of the CIA development of Artificial Intelligence systems, pulling In-Q-Tel, the CIA-backed venture firm, under the management of ODNI.   Through a series of what seems like well-coordinated moves by Secretary Rubio, CIA Director Ratcliffe and DNI Gabbard, a significant amount of the CIA’s operations is no longer in the dark network.

USAID has been dissolved (Rubio/Ratcliffe); the Directorate of Analysis taken out of CIA and into ODNI (Ratcliffe/Gabbard); the President’s Daily Brief now assembled by the ODNI (Ratcliffe/Gabbard); Artificial Intelligence systems, In-Q-Tel under ODNI management (Ratcliffe/Gabbard), and now Intelligence Community (CIA) biolabs being identified, investigated and potentially removed from operation.

(Credit: Conservative Treehouse)

The biolab issue is a current concern given the discoveries of former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Director, Anthony Fauci, lying to congress and the American people about funding gain of function research in Wuhan, China.  However, given recent events we might even file this under proactive election integrity measures.

WASHINGTON — Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is investigating more than 120 biological laboratories abroad that were funded by US taxpayer dollars for decades, as part of an effort to end potentially risky experiments with viruses pursuant to President Trump’s executive order on so-called “gain-of-function” research.

Gabbard told The Post Monday in a statement that her team is going “to identify where these labs are, what pathogens they contain and what ‘research’ is being conducted to end dangerous gain-of-function research that threatens the health and wellbeing of the American people and the world.”

“The COVID-19 pandemic revealed the catastrophic global impact research on dangerous pathogens in biolabs can have,” the spy chief also said.

“Yet despite these obvious dangers, politicians, so-called health professionals, like Dr. Fauci, and entities within the Biden administration’s national security team lied to the American people about the existence of these US-funded and supported biolabs and threatened those who attempted to expose the truth.”

Under new guidance from Gabbard, the US Intelligence Community will review research at all US-funded biolabs, which would include facilities engaged in gain-of-function experiments that could increase the transmissibility of viruses, as well as work for defensive purposes against dangerous pathogens.

Office of the Director of National Intelligence officials noted that the foreign labs extend into more than 30 countries, and several had received funding in the past through a Department of Defense program that sought to dispose of weapons of mass destruction after the end of the Cold War.

More than 40 of the biolabs under review are located in Ukraine — and could “be at risk of compromise” due to Russia’s war, ODNI officials noted. (read more)

Eventually, the world will be shown, that the wars in both Ukraine and Iran, lead back to Obama.

Obama offshored US bioweapon development in 2014, mainly to Ukraine.

Obama is also responsible for Iran’s nuclear program.

Everything leads back to Obama. He gave weapons of mass destruction to CIA/Deep State proxies. Obama is a terrorist that stole US secrets and technology, and put it in the hands of illegitimate Deep State regimes.

This is what it all comes down to. Everything Trump is doing revolves around cleaning up Obama’s mess and foiling their plans to take over the world.

Obama is essentially a Bond villain, and put weapons of mass destruction in the hands of people who sought to hold the world hostage.

May 12, 2026 – GOP Senators: Joe Biden’s DOJ buried newly-released texts of possible Hunter Biden prostitution crimes

(Credit: Eric Thayer/AP)

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) under former President Joe Biden (D) buried evidence of possible prostitution crimes linked to the ex-president’s son, Hunter, but those documents have since been released.

Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley and Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations Chairman Ron Johnson in 2022 asked the DOJ for the documents but were unsuccessful in their query, Just the News reported Monday.

However, they have since obtained those documents.

“The Republican senators say the records — which include text messages between Hunter Biden and the women — show that the government had significant evidence of potential Mann Act violations allegedly committed by Hunter Biden from as early as October 2020,” the article read. “For example, the messages show that Biden, whose father is former President Joe Biden, appeared to have purchased a flight from Los Angeles to an unknown destination for an unidentified woman in 2018.”

The DOJ’s archives website details the Mann Act:

Sections 2421 to 2423 of the Act set forth several offenses including the offense of knowingly transporting any individual, male or female, in interstate or foreign commerce or in any territory or possession of the United States for the purpose of prostitution or sexual activity which is a criminal offense under the federal or state statute or local ordinance.

In a social media post on Monday, Grassley announced he and Johnson had released the records, noting that they “support concerns we raised in our Sept 2020 Biden family report+ show double standard of justice.”

The recent News article also said, “In their September 2020 report on Hunter Biden’s business interests in Ukraine while his father was vice president, the senators pointed to evidence that the younger Biden had paid women who were citizens of Ukraine and Russia. Some of those transactions were allegedly linked to what ‘appears to be an Eastern European prostitution or human trafficking ring.’”

The outlet’s chief investigative correspondent, Jerry Dunleavy IV, wrote in a social media post on Monday that “Joe’s pardon of Hunter means he can’t be prosecuted federally for any crimes related to his participation in a Russia-linked escort/prostitution ring — paid for partly & unwittingly (?) by Joe.” (Read more: Breitbart News, 5/12/2026)  (Archive)

May 12, 2026 – John Brennan says there are still “legions” of his allies, Deep State operatives, at DOJ, FBI and CIA

Appearing on MSNBC to talk to Lawfare ally Nicole Wallace, wife of New York Times narrative engineer Michael Schmidt – the guy who received leaks from FBI Director James Comey via Daniel Richman, former CIA Director John Brennan notes there are “legions” of operatives still embedded within the DOJ, FBI and CIA who are working against President Donald Trump.

This is not a surprise as we have noted the Trump administration continues to take apart the tentacles of Lawfare and Intelligence operatives in Main Justice, various U.S. Attorney offices, FBI Headquarters, FBI field offices and various Intelligence Community silos.

Marco Rubio has been working to clean up the National Security Council as well as the State Department operations, including USAID.  Tulsi Gabbard and John Ratcliffe have been working on the NSA and CIA collaboratively, and Todd Blanche has been working through the Dept of Justice.  FBI Director Kash Patel has removed about ten percent of the problem in his agency.

The core problem goes back to what we outlined on these pages {GO DEEP} and is not limited to those operatives who remain from the Obama/Biden era.  Some of the problems surface as a result of ‘republican’ voices recommending “sleeper cell” staff and sketchy personnel for positions in the administration. [I’ll put an example below]

One way to tell if the agency head or leader understands the challenge is by paying attention to how they talk about the agency’s mission objective.

Leaders like Marco Rubio and Tulsi Gabbard have openly acknowledged the problem and are actively tackling corruption within their ranks. Even John Ratcliffe has admitted his agency was politically weaponized and has taken steps to address it. There’s still a lot of work ahead, but their actions show visible progress.

People like Pam Bondi and Kash Patel have praised the institutional embeds without drawing attention to the corruption beneath them. Thankfully, Acting AG Todd Blanche seems to be taking a more confrontational approach internally, so maybe Kash Patel will follow suit. This isn’t about style—it’s about results, and there’s an urgent need for action.

To give an example of “sketchy” recommendations and predictable outcomes, I would draw attention to the lesser visible appointment of Morgan Ortagus.  Do you remember this very weirdly worded announcement, two weeks prior to the inauguration?

I have no idea who “them” is referencing in the announcement.

[…] “I’m not doing this for me, I doing it for them”

There were always three options for “them”: (1) the strong republican support people; or (2) people in the Middle East who would be dealing with her; or (3) Stephen Witkoff and Jared Kushner.  Regardless, of who “them” was, it was obvious President Trump was not thrilled by “their” request.

Mrs. Morgan Ortagus is a long time Deep State operative with roots in the U.S. intelligence community and USAID {citation}.  It was very predictable that she would undermine the goals of President Trump and she only lasted six months in the job.  Ortagus was quietly dispatched from her position in June 2025.

CTH predicted {SEE HERE} Mrs. Ortagus would be a big mistake because she was, quite frankly, one of the “legion” insiders referenced by former CIA Director John Brennan.  Ortagus’s entire career profile was/is textbook intelligence operative, likely legacy CIA.

Not coincidentally, former National Security Advisor Mike Waltz was removed from his position only a month before Ortagus lost hers.

On the day he was announced CTH said National Security Advisor Mike Waltz would be the first administration member to get the boot, because in the non-pretending world Waltz was a horrible choice just like Ortagus.  Mike Waltz was removed as National Security Advisor in May 2025, {citation} Ortagus was removed as Middle East envoy in June {citation}.

If the goal was to eliminate the Deep State, President Trump couldn’t take on a deeply corrupt Intelligence Community while also appointing its allies. Their close ties to the Intelligence Community made the failures of both Waltz and Ortagus predictable.

That said, behind the veneer of John Brennan’s statement on MSNBC is a guy who realizes the Trump administration has changed the dynamic and the agency systems Brennan is talking about no longer exist; at least they no longer have the same capabilities.

The need for control is a reaction to fear, and Brennan’s fear is both visible and very well founded.

The DOJ and FBI operate under the influence of the Intelligence Community, which ultimately holds the reins. The key figures leading the IC have made changes to the institutions that have significantly reduced the impact of bad actors within the DOJ and FBI.

The key positions are the National Security Advisor, the Secretary of State, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency.

Marco Rubio, Tulsi Gabbard and John Ratcliffe are the people to watch, and we can tell by the counsel(s) they have put into place that each of them has clear eyes and a steady hand on those critical institutions.

Since mid-year 2025, around the same time Waltz and Ortagus were dispatched, you will note significant changes began surfacing in the National Security Council, the State Dept, the DNI and importantly the CIA.  Some of the changes make headlines, many do not; however, each is important and builds on a larger goal of dismantling a highly weaponized and political intelligence apparatus.

Internationally, what we see in the reaction of allied -or oppositional- governments and their intelligence agencies, is in large part a geopolitical reaction to the consequential changes being made by Rubio, Gabbard and Ratcliffe.  Each building upon a system that fundamentally changes U.S. policy to be in alignment with President Trump.  Each of them should be commended.

Domestically, the accountability developments involving James Comey, John Brennan, John Bolton, Michael Atkinson, Eric Ciaramella and others yet to emerge, stem from the transparency brought by the same trio working upstream from Main Justice and the FBI. The combined intelligence apparatus of the U.S. can cut through the chaff and countermeasures of Lawfare operatives, and I feel optimistic watching them in action.

Again, it’s not just the silo heads that are making a positive impact, it is the personnel decisions they are surrounding themselves with.  The amount of sunlight now coming over the horizon is toxic to the interests of those who organized shadow operations.

As long as Rubio, Ratcliffe and especially Gabbard, keep pushing the truth to the surface; as long as they keep exposing all the corruption that was used to manipulate and weaponize our government; as long as they keep strategizing on ways to declassify evidence former officials buried under false pretenses; then the DOJ, FBI and more importantly We The People, will have information we can use to make decisions.

Ultimately, it is the truth which makes evil enterprise retreat.

May 12, 2026 – There was another recent biolab accident at one of Fauci’s most dangerous gain-of-function animal labs in Montana

NEW: ANOTHER FAUCI BIOLAB ACCIDENT

We just exposed another recent bioagent accident at one of Fauci’s most dangerous animal labs.

And it’s the second accident we exposed at this NIH lab just this year!

We uncovered documents revealing the NIH quietly admitted that an unspecified deadly pathogen was “released, lost, or stolen” from its Rocky Mountain Lab in Montana in February.

In January, we broke the viral news about another NIH lab accident at RML that exposed a staffer to Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever, a deadly foreign virus with a 40% fatality rate.

Just last week, we released a shocking whistleblower letter that revealed the alleged details of that dangerous animal lab breach:

An NIH lab staffer was allegedly “bitten by an infected monkey (macaque) that was being tortured (infected and sickened with no pain mitigation).”

The anonymous sources claimed the NIH was in “full coverup mode” about the monkey bite.

And we just blew the lid off yet another shocking scandal at RML:

Animal experimenter Vincent Munster was suspended and allegedly investigated by the FBI for smuggling dangerous viruses into the US from Africa.

Munster is a mad scientist who infects primates, bats and other animals with CCHF, hantavirus, Ebola, and other deadly bioagents.

We were the first to expose Fauci’s funding for the gain-of-function animal tests in Wuhan that likely caused COVID. But the NIH hasn’t learned its lesson.

We are running billboards near RML right now targeting Munster’s deadly animal tests and urging RFK Jr. to shut them down!

Secretary RFK Jr. needs to answer:

How many more dangerous accidents at RML need to happen before you shut it down?

BREAKING:

We just released a bombshell whistleblower report.

A notorious NIH-funded animal experimenter allegedly attempted to smuggle “dozens of vials” of foreign viruses onto US soil.

NIH allegedly went into “full coverup mode.”

But RFK Jr. just confirmed it:

HHS referred NIH-funded mad scientist Vincent Muster to the FBI over the incident.

Kennedy told Laura Loomer:

“I assume he is going to prison.”

Here’s the story:

First, in January, we exposed a lab accident at NIH’s Rocky Mountain Lab in Montana, where Munster worked.

An RML staffer was reportedly exposed to Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever—a deadly foreign virus used by Munster for maximum pain experiments on monkeys, which we’ve been fighting to shut down for years.

Now, we have more details.

This whistleblower letter alleges that the staffer was “bitten by an infected monkey… that was being tortured (infected and sickened with no pain mitigation).”

The anonymous letter alleges that the NIH immediately moved to cover up the incident.

The whistleblower claims RML staff was not informed, and the exposed lab worker was “flown out” to avoid suspicion.

Second, the letter alleges that Vincent Munster was caught attempting to smuggle “dozens of vials in his baggage” on a trip back from Africa in January.

He allegedly lied to customs about the contents of the vials, which the whistleblower claims include viral hemorrhagic fever samples.

The letter states that the NIH covered up the whole incident. It wasn’t public until we broke the story last week.

We were the first to expose Fauci’s funding for the Wuhan animal lab that Covid most likely leaked from, the “smoking gun” emails proving that Fauci’s agency funded EcoHealth’s gain-of-function experiments, and that the US government funded the Wuhan experimenter who became Covid’s likely “Patient Zero.”

Now, we’re uncovering troubling details of a dangerous animal lab accident on US soil and alleged international virus smuggling by NIH-funded animal experimenters.

Stay tuned for more.

May 13, 2026 – Whistleblower: Capitol Police engaged in an ‘intentional and malicious’ Jan. 6 conspiracy to sack Chief Steven Sund

Elements of U.S. Capitol Police knew in advance that Jan. 6 would be a catastrophe that would justify and lead to the firing of Police Chief Steven A. Sund, a whistleblower alleges in an explosive letter to Congress.

The whistleblower report references the first concrete evidence that January 6 was—on some levels—a planned disaster with a goal of sacking Chief Sund, elevating then-Assistant Chief Yogananda D. Pittman, 52, and Deputy Chief Sean P. Gallagher, 45, and consolidating the USCP intelligence division under Democrat control.

“…Evidence reveals that the violence, deaths, injuries, and aftermath of January 6th were not the result of mere intelligence failures or incompetence,” the whistleblower wrote, “but may have stemmed from intentional acts by insiders seeking to remove then-Chief of Police Steven Sund and consolidate control over the USCP and its intelligence functions.”

The whistleblower letter, written by a senior law enforcement official with firsthand knowledge of events in the department prior to, on and after Jan. 6, alleged that senior Capitol Police leaders conspired with Democrats in Congress to create the conditions for a Jan. 6 disaster — and the nearly immediate firing of Sund.

(Clipping from report)

Sund said the implication of the whistleblower report is there was collaboration to engineer his firing prior to Jan. 6.

“It shows there’s some coordination, some consultation taking place in advance,” Sund told Veritas Regnat in an interview. “Think about it. About 48 hours after this text is sent, she [Pittman] is given my job.”

The primary evidence of foreknowledge is a phone message allegedly sent by U.S. Capitol Police Sgt. Lawrence J. Cook, 42, to his superior, Deputy Chief Gallagher. Sources said this message had been in the possession of the now-defunct Jan. 6 Select Committee led by Reps. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) and Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.).

The message was again discovered in December 2025 by an investigator for the GOP-controlled House Select Subcommittee on January 6, led by U.S. Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.).

“I assert that Sergeant Cook’s January 6th message fundamentally alters the understanding of responsibility for January 6, presenting what I believe is direct evidence of a conspiracy involving USCP personnel and Democratic staff,” the whistleblower wrote.

Two law-enforcement sources told Veritas Regnat that they learned of the Cook-Gallagher message in phone calls they received from Brandon Cockerham—Loudermilk’s deputy chief of staff—on Dec. 1 and 2, 2025. One of the sources said they shed tears of joy after the call, knowing that concrete evidence of a Jan. 6 conspiracy was coming to light. (Read much more: 5/13/2026)  (Archive)

May 13, 2026 – CIA whistleblower testifies Fauci lied to congress and the public about origins of Covid virus

May 13, 2026 – Justice Department files complaint against D.C. Bar disciplinary authorities

D.C. Bar Association Headquarters (Credit: DCBar.org)

The Justice Department has officially declared war on the radical leftist D.C. Bar’s decades-long abuse of power, filing a bombshell complaint against their disciplinary authorities for illegally targeting federal government attorneys who dared to serve President Donald Trump.

Hamilton P. Fox III (Credit: Facebook)

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and the Trump DOJ filed the complaint on Wednesday against D.C. Disciplinary Counsel Hamilton P. Fox III, the D.C. Office of Disciplinary Counsel, and the D.C. Court of Appeals Board on Professional Responsibility.

The filing directly advances President Trump’s Executive Order Ending the Weaponization of the Federal Government and his Presidential Memorandum on Preventing Abuses of the Legal System and the Federal Courts.

It seeks to shut down the D.C. Bar’s unlawful prosecution of former Assistant Attorney General Jeff Clark, a Trump loyalist targeted purely for his internal deliberations on 2020 election fraud that remains the subject of ongoing litigation nearly six years later.

Just last week, the DOJ filed a statement of interest supporting former interim U.S. Attorney Ed Martin, who the D.C. Bar is trying to crucify for daring to challenge DEI brainwashing at Georgetown Law Center.

The Gateway Pundit reported on that outrageous hit job back in March:

“The DC bar’s attempt to target and punish those serving President Trump while refusing to investigate or act against actual ethical violations that were committed by Biden and Obama administration attorneys is a clear indication of this partisan organization’s agenda,” the DOJ told CBS at the time.”

More from the DOJ:

The Justice Department today filed a complaint against D.C. Disciplinary Counsel Hamilton P. Fox III, the D.C. Office of Disciplinary Counsel, and the D.C. Court of Appeals Board on Professional Responsibility over their improper use of bar discipline to regulate the official actions of Federal Government attorneys.  The filing advances President Donald J. Trump’s Executive Order Ending the Weaponization of the Federal Government and Presidential Memorandum on Preventing Abuses of the Legal System and the Federal Courts.  Specifically, the complaint seeks to nullify the D.C. Bar’s unlawful prosecution of former Assistant Attorney General Jeff Clark based on internal deliberations relating to potential fraud in the 2020 Presidential Election, which remains the subject of litigation nearly six years later.

“As our complaint and history make clear, the DC Bar has long acted as a blatantly partisan arm of leftist causes. No more,” said Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche.

May 14, 2026 – FBI announces $200,000 reward for information leading to apprehension of former U.S. Counterintelligence agent charged with espionage for Iran

The FBI Washington Field Office today announced that the FBI is offering a $200,000 reward for information leading to the apprehension and prosecution of Monica Witt, a former U.S. service member and counterintelligence agent who was indicted by a federal grand jury in the District of Columbia in February 2019 on charges of espionage, including transmitting national defense information to the government of Iran.

Witt, a former active-duty U.S. Air Force intelligence specialist and special agent for the Air Force Office of Special Investigations, served in the military between 1997 and 2008 before working as a U.S. government contractor until 2010. Her military service and contracting employment provided her access to SECRET and TOP SECRET information relating to foreign intelligence and counterintelligence, including the true names of U.S. Intelligence Community undercover personnel.

In 2013, Witt defected to Iran. According to the indictment, she subsequently provided information to the government of Iran, placing at risk sensitive and classified U.S. national defense information and programs. Witt allegedly intentionally provided information endangering U.S personnel and their families stationed abroad. She also allegedly conducted research on behalf of the Iranian regime to allow them to target her former colleagues in the U.S. government.

Witt’s defection to Iran has benefitted the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), which has elements responsible for intelligence collection, unconventional warfare, and providing direct support to multiple terrorist organizations targeting U.S. citizens and interests.

While Witt has been indicted for her alleged crimes, she remains at large. The FBI continues to actively work to locate Witt and bring her to justice. “Monica Witt allegedly betrayed her oath to the Constitution more than a decade ago by defecting to Iran and providing the Iranian regime National Defense Information and likely continues to support their nefarious activities,” said Daniel Wierzbicki, special agent in charge of the FBI Washington Field Office’s Counterintelligence and Cyber Division. “The FBI has not forgotten and believes that during this critical moment in Iran’s history, there is someone who knows something about her whereabouts. The FBI wants to hear from you so you can help us apprehend Witt and bring her to justice.”

Anyone who has information about Witt should contact the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI. You can also contact your local FBI office or the nearest American Embassy or Consulate or submit a tip via tips.fbi.gov.

May 15, 2026 – Tina Peters is granted clemency; Peters posts statement on X and social media responds

Thank you Governor Polis.
I made mistakes, and for those I am sorry. Five years ago I misled the Secretary of State when allowing a person to gain access to county voting equipment. That was wrong. I have learned and grown during my time in prison and going forward I will make sure that my actions always follow the law, and I will avoid the mistakes of the past.

I strongly condemned it when people not connected to me threatened to storm the prison I am in. I myself have faced threats, so, I also want to be clear that I condemn any and all bullying, threats and acts of violence against voters, county clerks, election workers, and other public officials, and concerned citizens like myself.

Upon release, I plan to do my best through legal means to support election integrity and based on my own personal experiences to elevate the cause of prison reform to help ensure the detention system is more fair and equitable for people of all ages. My experiences have given me a perspective that plan to share with others to improve Colorado’s corrections system. I am grateful for a second chance and an earlier release, and I look forward to doing good in the world.

Tina Peters received clemency today from Gov. Jared Polis, and now Jena Griswold needs to answer for her crimes.

Griswold spent years calling demonizing Peters as a criminal who she said compromised voting equipment and threatened Colorado’s elections.

And then Griswold left voting system passwords online.

She said it was a mistake, it was unintentional, the safeguards worked, and everyone was supposed to trust the process.

You do not get to spend years treating one election breach like the end of democracy, then expect everyone to look away when the breach happened under your watch.

Why wasn’t Griswold ever prosecuted?

UPDATE 5/16/2026

(…) Griswold, who is running for Attorney General of Colorado in the 2026 midterms, joined CNN last night to vent her frustrations. While Griswold does mention the Colorado Appeals Court’s decision to order a new sentencing in Peters’ case, the Secretary failed to mention a Colorado state senator, Sonya Jacquez Lewis, who was convicted of the same exact felony as Peters but only sentenced to probation and community service, while Peters, a gold star mother with no prior convictions, was given almost a decade in prison.

Griswold: This sends a message to Trump’s followers that if they break the law, well, they might get off just fine. This sends a message to Donald Trump that if he retaliates hard enough, he’ll be able to get a state to do his bidding. And this tells election officials that however hard we work, some people may just be above the law if they attack American democracy. That’s a dangerous, dangerous message to send the country right now.

May 16, 2026 – British patriots awaken and reject the unfriendly invasion imposed by their government

Hundreds of thousands of British patriots marched in London on Saturday at Tommy Robinson’s “Unite the Kingdom and the West” march, ending on and Parliament Square outside historic Westminster Abbey. Speakers, including host Glenn Beck and YouTuber Nick Shirley, addressed the massive rally, which was interrupted by chants of “Keir Starmer’s a Wanker” and calls for the Prime Minister to step down.

British patriot leader Tommy Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, had been touring the United States for the last two months, meeting with members of Congress and the State Department and giving interviews to the likes of Jack Posobiec, Gen. Mike Flynn, Glenn Beck, Raheem Kassam, and Lara Logan.

Early May, he returned to the UK to organize the sixth “Unite the Kingdom” rally, which began with a mere 5000 attendees on June 1, 2024, and culminated in a massive, million-man march on September 13, 2025, three days after the murder of Charlie Kirk by a far-left antifa trans furry activist in Utah.

The recent march comes on the heels of a crushing election defeat of PM Keir Starmer’s Labor Party in local elections on May 7, the resignation of Starmer’s top adviser, Morgan McSweeney, on Feb. 8 in the Peter Mandelson-Jeffrey Epstein scandal, and increased pressure for Starmer to step down from his own party.

May 17, 2026 – Austin is under siege: 10-12 random shootings in 24 hours – Teens with stolen guns terrorize city

Austin Under Siege: 10-12 Random Shootings in <24 Hours – Teens with Stolen Guns Terrorize City, 4 Injured (1 Critical), Shelter-in-Place Chaos Ensues

In a city already reeling from prior violence, Austin just endured what looks like a coordinated weekend rampage: suspects firing at homes, apartments, businesses, and two fire stations. No motive announced. Random victims. Vehicles stolen and swapped like a bad action movie—dark Hyundai Sonata with a smashed window, gold sedans, Kias, Mazdas.

Two Hispanic males (15 & 17) are now in custody after a chase. Third suspect still loose—Manor area (Presidential Meadows, etc.) on high alert. APD & Mayor Watson briefed: lock doors, don’t leave cars unlocked, eyes open.

This isn’t “random” in a vacuum. It’s a symptom—youth crime exploding, soft policies, stolen guns circulating. Austin’s “progressive” experiment meets street-level reality. Prayers for the injured. Gratitude to APD/SWAT for the rapid response. But questions remain: How did teens access this firepower? Why the fire stations? What’s the full network?

Stay vigilant, Texas. Secure your families. Report tips—reward is possible. Law enforcement is hunting.

Watch the official briefing below 👇

UPDATE: 5/18/2026

UPDATE: AUSTIN’S JUVENILE JIHAD—14-, 15-, & 16-YEAR-OLDS ALLEGEDLY UNLEASH 12 RANDOM SHOOTINGS—HOMES, PEDESTRIANS, AND FIRE STATIONS RIDDLED. FOUR INJURED. ONE CRITICAL. THIS IS WHAT “COMPASSIONATE” JUSTICE BREEDS.

Austin Police just nabbed the third teen in a weekend rampage that turned South Austin into a free-fire zone. Stolen guns. Stolen cars swapped mid-spree. Shelter-in-place orders. Even firefighters—first responders sworn to protect—took fire. No motive, police say. Just pure, random predation by kids who shouldn’t even be behind the wheel without a learner’s permit.

Here’s the scholarly gut-punch: this isn’t an “isolated incident.” It’s the logical endpoint of a juvenile justice experiment that swapped deterrence for diversion, consequences for counseling, and accountability for “restorative” rhetoric. Travis County DA José Garza’s office has long championed pre-trial diversions, record expungements, and community healing over prosecution for youthful offenders—policies rooted in noble intent but empirically disastrous when violent crime is involved. Deterrence theory (from Cesare Beccaria’s 1764 Dei Delitti e Delle Pene to modern meta-analyses by the National Academy of Sciences) is brutally clear: swift, certain, proportionate punishment shapes behavior. Leniency signals permission. When teens face adult-level malice but juvenile-level slap-on-the-wrist processing, the social fabric doesn’t bend—it snaps.

Parents MIA. Schools are churning out unmoored ideologues instead of disciplined citizens. A culture that romanticizes “youthful rebellion” while ignoring the feral vacuum left by broken homes and zero-tolerance-for-zero-accountability policies. These aren’t misunderstood kids; they’re embryonic predators testing boundaries a civilized society should have hardened long ago. Charge them as adults. Release their names. Bill the parents for every bullet hole and ambulance ride. Anything less is performative compassion that endangers the innocent.

Real engagement isn’t rage-clicks—it’s the dawning realization that order isn’t optional. Austin (and every city watching) is the lab rat. The results are bleeding in the streets.

What’s the breaking point? When do we admit “progressive” juvenile justice has failed the very children it claims to save—and the rest of us who pay the price?

Drop your unfiltered take below.

History is watching.

Revealed: One of the Austin Shooting Spree Suspects is an Illegal with an ICE Hold

The Austin Police Department says at least three suspects were involved in as many as 12 shootings since Saturday.

Two of the shootings were at fire stations in South Austin.

At least four people were reported injured.

Police announced that 17-year-old Cristian Mondragon has been charged with six felonies, with more charges possible, including: Two counts of unauthorized use of a motor vehicle; Two counts of aggravated assault with a motor vehicle; Theft of firearms; Evading arrest with a motor vehicle.

The two other suspects are minors and will be processed through a different judicial system.

While in court, prosecutors noted that Mondragon is not a U.S. citizen and currently has an ICE hold.

May 18, 2026 – CIA officer is arrested by FBI SWAT team; search of his home finds $40 million in gold bars, $2 million in cash and 30 Rolex watches

David Rush (Credit: Alexandria Sheriff’s Office)

In the annals of Deep State WTF-ery, is there a stranger case than CIA officer David Rush turning up with $40-million in 303 one-kilogram gold bars, plus $2-million in cash, plus a stash of 30 mostly Rolex watches? Well, yeah, the stranger story is how the guy got hired by the CIA in the first place.

Rush was arrested on Monday, May 18, by an FBI SWAT team at his home in Loudoun County, VA. Agents searched the house all day long and found the stash. Rush is currently charged with theft of public money and allegedly falsifying his military and academic credentials to obtain federal employment benefits, including roughly $77,000 in improper military leave pay. He’s scheduled to make a federal court appearance in Alexandria today.

Rush first applied for a job at the CIA in March 2006. He claimed to have a bachelor’s degree in math from Clemson University and a master’s from the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI). He was rejected. He reapplied later that same year. Bumped again. He reapplied again in 2009, adding a new credential: that he’d been a US Navy test pilot and flight trainer. This time, he was hired.

Rush’s college credentials were found to be false, but it is unclear when that was discovered. Since he included them in his two earlier 2006 failed applications, why were they not flagged in his successful 2009 application? His claim of being a US Navy pilot was also found to be false (he was an information systems tech in his Navy service). The FBI affidavit unsealed recently details the pattern of lies across all applications.

Understand that CIA vetting procedures are supposed to be exceedingly rigorous. The process is stressful and invasive — many candidates drop out or are weeded out. The background check involves interviews with practically everybody who knows the applicant going back decades, his criminal history, work, financial history, education, military service. The applicant gets a polygraph exam. Even after getting hired, monitoring continues.

Rush was hired at the very start of the Obama admin; Leon Panetta was the newly appointed CIA Director. Wouldn’t you like to hear him ‘splain how David Rush managed to get hired? Was somebody smoothing his way in? Rush rose to become a senior executive service (SES) officer with a top-secret (TS/SCI) security clearance. His exact duties, the division he worked for, his day-to-day responsibilities have not been disclosed.

Rush allegedly requested the gold and foreign currency from the CIA for “work-related expenses” between November 2025 and March 2026. The agency later could not account for the assets or locate records explaining their official purpose. A search of a storage locker at CIA connected to Rush turned up only a small amount of the requisitioned cash. (Read more: Clusterfuck Nation, 5/29/2026)  (Archive)

May 19, 2026 – Raffensperger fails to secure runoff spot in Republican primary for Georgia governor

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger failed Tuesday night to clinch enough votes for one of the two spots in the runoff for the Republican primary for Georgia governor, losing to Lt. Gov. Burt Jones and health care executive Rick Jackson.

Raffensperger secured just 14% of the vote, according to the Associated Press, compared to Jones’ 37% and Jackson’s 34%. Jones is considered the favorite to win the nomination after President Donald Trump endorsed his campaign.

May 20, 2026 – U.S. indicts Cuba’s Raúl Castro for murder of Americans 30 years ago

Raúl Castro (Credit: Ismael Francisco/AP)

Acting U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche on Wednesday announced that Cuba’s nonagenarian communist dictator Raúl Castro has been indicted over his role in the killing of four Americans in February 1996.

Speaking  at the Freedom Tower in Miami, Florida, acting AG Blanche announced that Castro and five co-defendants have been charged with conspiracy to kill U.S. nationals, as well as other charges including destruction of aircraft and four individual counts of murder.

“My message today is clear, the United States and President Trump does not — and will not — forget its citizens,” acting AG Blanche said.

“President Trump is committed to restoring a very simple but important principle: If you kill Americans we will pursue you, no matter who you are, what title you hold — and in this case, no matter how much time has passed,” he emphasized.

The charges stem from an April indictment by a U.S. grand jury in Florida that was unsealed on Wednesday, May 20, and are related to Castro and the other co-defendants’ involvement in the shooting of two civilian planes belonging to the Miami-based anti-communist charity organization Brothers to the Rescue in 1996, which killed four Americans.

U.S. Senator Ashley Moody (R-FL) explained during the press conference that Castro faces up to life imprisonment on charges of conspiracy to kill U.S. nationals.

Castro, who allegedly “retired” from ruling Cuba in 2018, has remained the sole true dictator of the island nation since he succeeded his late brother Fidel Castro in the late 2000s. The indictment marks the first time in the nearly 70 years that the Castro regime has been in power that senior members of the communist regime have been charged in the U.S. for acts of violence resulting in the deaths of American citizens.

February 2026 marked the 30th anniversary of the murder of Carlos Costa, Armando Alejandre, Mario de la Peña, and Pablo Morales — four American members of Brothers to the Rescue. The group carried out humanitarian airplane missions during the 1990s balsero (“rafter”) migrant crisis, rescuing Cubans adrift at sea as they desperately attempted to flee from communism.

May 20, 2026 – Rep. Tim Burchett warns GOP he’ll “embarrass” colleagues if Trump agenda stalls

Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) is done playing nice.

In a fiery interview, the Tennessee congressman made it crystal clear that patience inside the Republican conference is wearing thin as key elements of President Donald Trump’s America First agenda remain bogged down in Washington gridlock.

Burchett blasted the slow pace of Congress and warned fellow Republicans that if they keep dragging their feet on critical legislation, including election integrity measures such as the SAVE America Act, they’re going to have a very uncomfortable time.

Burchett: If we listen to what President Trump proposes, and in his cuts and things, I think we would be ahead everywhere. But we’re not. We’re running our own little game, and that’s going to cost us. I believe the redistricting has helped us, mainly a Trump initiative.

The price of gasoline, honestly, I think is what people are going to be going to the polls about, either yay or nay, wherever it is. They have a very short memory that it was higher under Biden than it is even now. But with the media constantly bombarding them with all that, you’re not going to get that message.

So people are upset, and they have a right to be. I just wish we would follow President Trump’s initiative from day one and stop with all this nonsense.

You know, it’s like DOGE. I’m chairman of the DOGE Committee, and it’s just like pulling teeth to get any cost-saving measures through these committees.

But I’m just a little different. I don’t work for anybody up here. I work for the good people of Tennessee. And so I don’t care if I tick off every chairman up here. I don’t care. I’m going to embarrass them if they don’t start moving our legislation.

May 20, 2026 – DOJ indicts U.S Attorney who supported Jack Smith prosecuting Trump in the Mar-a-Lago case

Last weekend former FBI Director James Comey said there were multiple officials remaining within the DOJ and FBI who were actively working to continue the weaponization of the agencies against President Donald Trump.  When asked about it earlier today, President Trump said Acting AG Todd Blanche and FBI Director Kash Patel would root them out and deal with the issue.

Hours later the Dept of Justice released and indictment {SEE HERE} against Managing Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Fort Pierce Branch, Carmen M. Lineberger. Asst USAO Lineberger was caught downloading classified files from the Jack Smith case to her personal email and labeling them as recipes so she could leak them to Lawfare resistance members.

According to FBI Director Kash Patel, “This afternoon, a former managing assistant U.S. Attorney who supported Jack Smith’s politicized investigation of President Trump has been charged with stealing the confidential investigation documents. Carmen Lineberger allegedly emailed the confidential material to her own personal email, disguising them as dessert recipes to conceal them from record searches. Lineberger is charged with four felony counts in the indictment. This FBI will not hesitate to bring to account those who violated the trust of the American public in an investigation that should’ve never been brought to begin with.” {link}

“While it is true that former special counsels have released final reports at the conclusion of their work,” Cannon wrote, “it appears they have done so either after electing not to bring charges at all or after adjudications of guilt by plea or trial. The Court strains to find a situation in which a former special counsel has released a report after initiating criminal charges that did not result in a finding of guilt.”

May 20, 2026 – Owner of day care in viral Nick Shirley video charged as part of $4.6M fraud scheme

A woman allegedly tied to Minnesota’s massive “Feeding Our Future” scandal has been charged in a daycare fraud scheme after being featured in a viral video by influencer Nick Shirley, authorities said.

She is accused of pocketing millions of dollars meant for children’s meals.

Fahima Egeh Mahamud was charged Wednesday with wire fraud and conspiracy to defraud the United States, according to court documents.

Earlier this year, Mahamud was indicted for her alleged role in the initial $250 million “Feeding Our Future” scheme.

Prosecutors allege she enrolled Future Leaders Early Learning — a Minneapolis day care where she served as CEO — into the federal child nutrition program, falsely claiming to serve thousands of meals at her childcare center.

In addition to her involvement in the nutrition program fraud, Mahamud was federally charged Wednesday with a secondary scheme to defraud the Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP), which provides day care assistance to low-income families.

Between October 2022 and December 2025, she allegedly submitted over 13,000 fraudulent claims to CCAP totaling approximately $4.6 million.

Prosecutors state the claims were fraudulent because she falsely certified that she had collected mandatory co-payments from families, which is a material requirement for federal reimbursement.

The Future Leaders Early Learning center was featured in Shirley’s viral video, FOX 9 Minneapolis reported, which showed him visiting apparently empty, Somali-run childcare centers in and around Minneapolis while alleging widespread fraud. (Read more: New York Post, 5/20/2026)  (Archive)

May 20, 2026 – Environmental Defense Fund is a far-left slush fund for Democrat super PACs, Congressional Dem campaigns, and RINO campaigns

MAJOR HIGH PRIORITY NEWS ALERT: I’ve uncovered a massive financial boondoggle in which the Federal government continues to fund the Environmental Defense Fund, a radical far-left environmental organization that is linked to Code Pink and is raking in nearly $300 million a year in revenue and is spending vast amounts of money all over the globe and in the United States for radicalized environmental organizations. Even worse, the political action committees (PACs) for the Environmental Defense Fund are pouring huge amounts of money into far-left Democrat super PACs, the campaigns of Congressional Democrats and RINO GOP campaigns that oppose President Trump and the Trump administration.

Code Pink recently posted on Instagram a video where they called on the Environmental Defense Fund to get involved in their organized effort to stop Kevin O’Leary from constructing a data center in Utah (Screenshot 1).

The Environmental Defense Fund is currently receiving $13,435,283 in funding from the Federal government.

According to their 2024 IRS filings, the Environmental Defense Fund reported assets of $391,659,124. The organization also reported revenue of $298,689,286 and expenses of $295,808,792 in 2024. The Environmental Defense Fund spends millions of dollars on outrageous executive salaries and benefits.

The President of EDF, Frederic D. Krupp received $1,238,682 in salary and benefits in the most recent reported year. Other top executives receive pay packages from $312,000 to 628,000.

Screenshot 4 shows a portion of the endless stream of massive campaign contributions made by the Environmental Defense Action Fund PAC.

This initial first report contains just a sliver of the vast financial entanglements of the Environmental Defense Fund, its global operations and its political financial influence peddling.

May 21, 2026 – DOJ: 15 in Minnesota charged with allegedly running fraud schemes targeting $90 million

The Department of Justice has charged 15 people in Minnesota with allegedly running fraud schemes that targeted more than $90 million in taxpayer money.

Colin McDonald, assistant attorney general for the DOJ’s National Fraud Enforcement Division, said:

Today we are announcing criminal charges against 15 defendants in Minnesota for fraud schemes that targeted over 90 million in taxpayer dollars.

Let me be clear up front about something. This is not the end of our work in Minnesota. This is not the end of the beginning of our work in Minnesota. This is the beginning of our work in Minnesota. The fraud here in Minnesota is shocking.

Our cases today involve seven different state managed Medicaid programs that have been systematically pilfered by fraudsters who treated Minnesota-run programs as their personal piggy bank.

One of the programs has been completely shut down because there’s no money left. It’s all gone. That was Minnesota state-run housing stabilization services program designed to help the homeless find and maintain housing. It was estimated in 2020 that it would cost only about $2.5 million a year to fund this program, but it ended up costing almost 50 times that much, over $104 million by 2024 due to fraud. And because of all the fraud, Minnesota had to shut the program down in 2025 and now these services no longer exist for these vulnerable homeless populations.

The same trends exist for other Minnesota-run taxpayer-funded programs. An autism program that cost the taxpayer $600,000 just six years ago skyrocketed to over $400 million. And to be sure that number is not driven by supply and demand, it is not driven by health care or charity, it is fraud.

May 21, 2026 – DNC Autopsy Report is released; Dems are caught in an “anger trap” over Trump

Democrats have spent nearly a decade in fight mode against President Trump.

And some in the party worry that they may remain trapped there.

An autopsy released by the Democratic National Committee (DNC) on Thursday underscored the point, saying that Democrats relied too heavily on negative partisanship and became too dependent on attacks on Trump in their messaging to voters.

The report also stated that “anti-Trump sentiment” has its limitations in terms of achieving electoral success.

As they were hammering Trump in their anger, Democrats did not provide a vision to lure voters to their side or an argument for what they would do with power.

This week at the 2026 IDEAS Conference hosted by the Center for American Progress, anger was also displayed by a series of Democratic speakers, including California Gov. Gavin Newsom, who is a front-runner in the 2028 presidential race.

He and others spoke mostly about fighting the president and his party, a message that Democrats caution will fire up the base but may not be enough to win over independents, and thus, elections.

“Trump is the best base mobilizer for Democrats right now. But I think there is a broad understanding that the clock is ticking on how much longer Democrats can rely on polarization because of Trump to galvanize our voters,” said Democratic strategist Joel Payne, highlighting the problem.

In a Substack post this week titled “Can D’s control their fury,” Democratic strategist Dan Turrentine also wondered whether those in his party could move past the anger in the past few election cycles.

After attending the IDEAS Conference this week, Turrentine said he was “stunned by how consumed speakers and moderators were by raw fury against Donald Trump’s administration.”

“Time and again, they looked and sounded angry, no matter the topic, talked incessantly about losing our democracy and the country being genuinely destroyed,” Turrentine wrote in the post.

“The danger I worry about for my party leadership is that post-Virginia Supreme Court, and post-Voting Rights Act, inside the Beltway and on BlueSky, we are becoming blinded again by our fury,” he added. (Read more: The Hill, 5/23/2026)  (Archive)

May 23, 2026 – Feds subpoena Hasan Piker, Medea Benjamin over Cuba trip and violating U.S. sanctions laws

Federal officials have served subpoenas to Marxist political influencer Hasan Piker and CodePink cofounder Susan Medea Benjamin as part of a wider investigation into whether U.S. organizations and leaders violated U.S. laws and sanctions in supporting Cuba’s communist regime, Fox News Digital has learned.

Piker and Benjamin are among those caught in a federal inquiry into whether activists who traveled to Cuba in March violated U.S. sanctions laws through the financing, coordination or delivery of goods to Cuba, including potential contacts with Cuban government personnel or entities on the island. The administrative subpoenas were sent to the pair by the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control.

The administrative subpoenas — called “Requests for Information,” or RFI — seek financial, logistical and communications information revolving around trips the two widely bragged about making to the island nation in March with delegations of the “Nuestra América Convoy,” or “Our America Convoy,” from a global network of communist sympathizers, activists and influencers who brought supplies to the country’s ruling Communist Party of Cuba, according to sources familiar with the matter.

The investigation is part of a broader effort by officials at Treasury, State and Justice departments to curb malign foreign influence operations inside the United States, particularly activities tied to support for political violence, extremist movements or acts the U.S. government classifies as terrorism. The scrutiny reflects growing concern among federal authorities and lawmakers over whether foreign actors and aligned organizations are attempting to shape American political discourse, mobilize activists, sow discord and normalize rhetoric that could encourage violence or undermine U.S. national security interests.

According to a Fox News Digital investigation, Singham has pumped $278 million into nonprofit groups that have pushed pro-China, pro-Cuba, anti-U.S. narratives and street protests for almost a decade, since his marriage in February 2017 to CodePink co-founder Jodie Evans, who is also being investigated for her role in the March trip. CodePink received $1.33 million from Singham after he married Evans.

In mid-March, organizations in the Singham network — from the Venceremos Brigade to People’s Forum, a hub for communist causes in New York City — were leaders of the Nuestra American Convoy, which included an estimated 650 delegates from 33 countries and 120 organizations. The organizations included Democratic Socialists of America, a U.S. nonprofit that promotes Piker as a headline member.

The investigation by the Office of Foreign Assets Control is part of a broader dragnet that includes as many as 40 American citizens who joined foreign nationals, including a controversial Brazil activist, Thiago Avila, who are part of a global network of anti-U.S. Marxists, communists and socialists. Additional subpoenas are expected.

The administrative subpoenas mark a serious escalation by the Trump administration against a far-left nonprofit activist network that has spent years defending communist regimes, from Cuba to China, while presenting its work as humanitarian aid, anti-war organizing and “solidarity” with people “oppressed” by the “imperialist” U.S “colonial power.”

Hasan Piker, CodePink, and Ilhan Omar’s daughter Isra Hirsi flew to Cuba on a so-called “humanitarian convoy” — and stayed in a 5-star hotel with its own generator while the entire country sat in the dark during Cuba’s worst energy crisis in 67 years.

Hasan told his audience the U.S. government “forces” Americans to stay in luxury hotels in Cuba. That’s not what the law says. The Cuban Assets Control Regulations (31 CFR § 515.209 and § 515.210) prohibit Americans from staying at properties owned by the Cuban government or military — they don’t require five-star accommodations. We pulled the actual federal code. The receipts don’t lie.

Meanwhile, Isra Hirsi — the daughter of Rep. Ilhan Omar — joined a delegation organized with help from Mariela Castro (Raúl Castro’s daughter), met with regime officials, and posted she was “honored to make history.” But where’s that energy for the people in her mother’s own district? Minnesota was ground zero for the Feeding Our Future fraud — roughly $1 billion stolen from programs meant to feed children. Where’s the convoy for them?

UPDATE 5/25/2026

Hasan Piker ADMITTED on stream that the Cuban government reached out through the embassy to his “middle man” with a special offer:

“If reliable internet is the only thing stopping Hasan from coming to Cuba, we can make it happen.”

He said: “The Cuban government actually hit my contact from the embassy… well not me, there’s a middle man there.”

This was during planning for the “Nuestra América Convoy” the activist trip where Hasan and CodePink delivered aid but stayed in nice hotels with power & internet while Cubans dealt with massive blackouts.

Now both Hasan and Medea Benjamin have been subpoenaed by the U.S. Treasury (OFAC) over potential sanctions violations and coordination with the Cuban regime.

The clip makes it crystal clear: this wasn’t just independent humanitarian work. The government wanted him there badly enough to solve his streaming problems.

He’s their asset.

May 23, 2026 – CIA is accused of illegally spying on Tulsi Gabbard and interfering with DNI investigations

FBI Director Kash Patel, DNI Tulsi Gabbard and CIA Director John Ratcliffe testify before the Senate Intelligence Committee on March 18, 2026

A bombshell new report from investigative journalist Catherine Herridge reveals how the CIA has stonewalled Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and spied on her team’s efforts to investigate public scandals and government corruption.

(…) As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) and House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) fired off a preservation letter to the CIA, demanding that all existing and future records related to the taken items be preserved. A Director of National Intelligence spokeswoman later denied that a “raid” occurred as the claim circulated.

However, James Erdman never claimed that the CIA raided Gabbard’s office. Instead, during his opening statement before the Homeland Security Committee on May 13, Erdman, a career CIA Operations Officer, testified to several key points regarding the CIA’s ” refusal to comply with lawful oversight” and “documented efforts to circumvent oversight.”

He told the committee that the CIA not only refused to comply with the ODNI Director’s Initiatives Group (DIG) investigations into the COVID-19 origins, anomalous health incidents, and unidentified anomalous phenomena, but also retaliated against analysts who did not support their conclusions. “The CIA illegally monitored the computer and phone usage of DIG personnel, their investigations, and contact with whistleblowers,” which “significantly impacted Director Gabbard’s implementation of several EOs issued during this administration and tasked to the DIG,” he said.

Additionally, “when the DIGs ceased operations, the CIA also took back 40 boxes of JFK files and MKUltra files being processed for declassification by DNI Gabbard.”

WATCH:

Catherine Herridge highlighted part of Erdman’s testimony in a new report, including additional testimony from Erdman regarding Directed Energy attacks that have caused Anomalous Health Incidents, including Havana Syndrome, which are being investigated by the DIG team.

Based on my reporting, it was well known in national security circles that a CIA investigative unit had sent emails to several members of DNI Gabbard’s Director’s Initiatives Group — or DIG — demanding they come in for questioning.

While the CIA unit routinely conducts polygraphs and investigations, the timing of the request was concerning. It did not appear to be part of a standard security clearance review.

The alleged CIA monitoring of the Director’s Initiatives Group was described as tracking “every keystroke” on their government computers and devices. While there is no expectation of privacy on government computers and users often see a log-on warning, it did not appear to be routine counterintelligence work by the CIA.

In recent testimony before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, chaired by Sen @RandPaul, CIA Senior Operations Officer and whistleblower James Erdman III alleged that the CIA illegally spied on the computers and phones of the Director’s Initiatives Group, along with their investigations and contacts with whistleblowers.

NOTE: The DIG investigated the JFK, RFK, and MLK assassinations, the origins of COVID-19, Crossfire Hurricane, the Biden Administration’s domestic surveillance, Anomalous Health Incidents (AHI), and Unidentified Aerial Phenomena.

Erdman provided detailed testimony about the the DIG’s investigations into Directed Energy attacks, also known as Havana Syndrome or Anomalous Health Incidents (AHIs):

“This was not the first time the CIA appears to have been monitoring DIG communications. Individuals involved in our AHI investigation discovered third parties were listening in on secure phone calls at Intelligence Community facilities. In one instance, it was during a conversation with a whistleblower.

These incidents were also reported in counterintelligence channels, and DNI IT experts confirmed that reproducing what occurred on the secure phone calls required an IT engineering work order. Someone had to request a technical change to the infrastructure.”

During its investigation of AHIs, my reporting reveals additional allegations that the CIA denied DNI Gabbard’s investigators access to key analysts and officials still working in the CIA building, as well as relevant, highly classified intelligence held in compartmented programs.

I also understand that requests to review internal CIA correspondence/communications regarding the Biden-era AHI intelligence assessments — including whether the intelligence was manipulated and the findings altered — were blocked.

The Biden-era Intelligence Community assessments concluded it was unlikely that a novel weapon or foreign adversary was responsible for the debilitating brain injuries suffered by spies, diplomats, military personnel, and some civilians — injuries that can lead to brain cell atrophy and death.

As I reported in February, a DIG report and findings into Directed Energy Attacks or AHIs (Anomalous Health Incidents) were finalized and prepped for release, but there was strong Intelligence Community resistance to revealing it.

The report is still not public and this week, @JudicialWatch sued the federal government for the records.

Based on my reporting, the DIG — DNI Gabbard’s task force into weaponization and politicization — found that the analytic tradecraft used by the Intelligence Community under the Biden administration was “defective.”

I also understand the DIG’s recommendations include the recall of the 2023 and 2024 Intelligence Community Assessments on AHIs.

DNI Gabbard committed to a new review of so-called Havana Syndrome after our 2025 independent investigation. Our reporting revealed that brain injuries suffered by U.S. spies, diplomats, military operatives, and civilians can cause progressive damage to the brain and nervous system.
In response to my new reporting and questions, an ODNI official said, “We have confirmed that the Intelligence Community Inspector General is aware of the allegations and is working, alongside ODNI and interagency partners, to uncover the truth about any potential wrongdoing.”

A CIA official said the agency “has been and will continue to be supportive of any IG investigation into past conduct by CIA on this issue.”

The official disputed allegations that the agency had frustrated the investigation by DNI Gabbard’s team: “CIA worked to provide the DIG with access to information responsive to the Executive Orders prior to its disbandment by the DNI.”

On AHIs or Havana Syndrome, the CIA official said the CIA Director “…has been clear, including in sworn testimony before Congress, that CIA defers to ODNI leading an interagency analytic review of AHIs.”

Thank you for supporting independent journalism.

Senator Rand Paul, Chairman of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, shared the report, condemning the illegal spying and interference by the CIA, adding, “We’ve got to get to the bottom of what they’re hiding.”

May 26, 2026 – VP Vance tells story of elderly man who died from neglect as Medicaid fraudster got rich neglecting him

Vice President JD Vance on Tuesday told a horrifying story about how fraud affects the most vulnerable among us while speaking at an anti-fraud roundtable, revealing that an elderly man was killed due to a Medicaid fraudster’s neglect.

Vance, the Chairman of the White House Task Force to Eliminate Fraud, and Federal Trade Commission Chairman Andrew Ferguson, the Task Force Vice Chair, held a roundtable on Tuesday with over a dozen State Attorneys General to discuss the Trump Administration’s nationwide crackdown on federal benefits fraud.

(…) In a recent indictment in Minnesota, Vance said, a man who was being reimbursed by the Medicaid program to provide services to elderly patients, “was providing nothing, no services, no help, no check-ins.”

Because of this, one of his patients under his watch died “after months of being neglected by the caretaker who was getting reimbursed by the American people.”

Still, one day before the man died, the fraudster submitted another reimbursement for “services he never provided for a man he never cared for.”

“That man lived his final moments on this earth neglected, while a fraudster got rich by providing services that he never actually provided. That’s what we’re trying to stop, ladies and gentlemen. That’s what we have to fight back against,” Vance told reporters.

May 26, 2026 – What Americans need to understand about Trump’s foreign policy and what he wants to achieve

AMERICANS NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW.

Most people are still viewing President Trump’s foreign policy through the old post-WW2 lens. That lens is obsolete. What P Trump is attempting is not a minor policy adjustment. It is a complete restructuring of the global economic and geopolitical order.

Read that again.

For 80 years, America operated under a “globalist” framework:
• America paid the bills
• America defended everyone
• America opened its markets
• America carried NATO
• America protected shipping lanes
• America subsidized allies
• America tolerated trade imbalances
• America exported democracy while factories disappeared and debt exploded at home

That system enriched multinational corporations, global institutions, foreign economies, and permanent bureaucracies.

But millions of Americans watched:

– manufacturing collapse
– wages stagnate
– communities hollow out
– endless wars drain trillions
– China rise into a superpower using America’s own economic system against itself

President Trump is trying to replace that model with something entirely different:

👉 A transactional, America First economic coalition built around ENERGY, TRADE, SECURITY, MANUFACTURING, and STRATEGIC DEALS.

That Truth Social post about the Abraham Accords wasn’t just another statement. It was a blueprint.

If this succeeds, you are looking at the construction of a massive economic/security network that could include:

– The United States
– Saudi Arabia
– UAE
– Qatar
– Egypt
– Jordan
– Israel
– Pakistan
– Türkiye
– India
– parts of Latin America
– strategic Indo-Pacific partners
– and critically, a normalization framework with BOTH China and Russia where competition still exists, but catastrophic conflict is avoided through economic leverage, negotiated spheres of influence, energy coordination, and transactional diplomacy

This is one of the most misunderstood parts of President Trump’s geopolitical strategy.

Many Americans still think in Cold War terms:
America vs Russia.
America vs China.
Permanent hostility.
Permanent escalation.

But President Trump’s approach is far more transactional and realist.

Instead of trying to ideologically remake the world, the strategy appears focused on:

– preventing direct great-power war
– reducing the chance of nuclear escalation
– using trade leverage instead of permanent military occupation
– creating economic interdependence where possible
– forcing burden-sharing among allies
– and positioning America as the central negotiating power between rival blocs

That does NOT mean “surrendering” to China or Russia.

It means recognizing a reality many in Washington refused to accept for decades:
China is already an economic superpower.
Russia remains a military and energy superpower.

The question is no longer whether they exist as major powers.
The question is whether America can position itself at the center of a new balance of power that benefits Americans instead of endlessly draining American wealth trying to maintain a fading unipolar system.

This is why you are seeing:
• negotiations instead of immediate escalation
• energy diplomacy
• tariff wars instead of troop surges
• pressure campaigns tied to trade access
• selective partnerships instead of blind alliances
• attempts to split rival coalitions apart through deals

President Trump is essentially trying to create overlapping economic zones where America is no longer carrying the world for free – but instead sits at the center of the world’s most powerful deal-making network.

Combined economic power? Potentially $65-75+ TRILLION in GDP. Over HALF the global economy.

Think about what that means.

This is about:
✅ energy dominance
✅ shipping lanes
✅ critical minerals
✅ AI infrastructure
✅ manufacturing chains
✅ food security
✅ military positioning
✅ trade corridors
✅ investment flows
✅ currency leverage
✅ stabilizing relations between major powers where possible
✅ isolating hostile behavior through leverage instead of endless occupation wars

And younger Americans especially need to understand this part:

THIS DIRECTLY IMPACTS YOUR FUTURE.

If America remains trapped in the old system:

– debt keeps exploding
– jobs continue leaving
– housing becomes less affordable
– wages get crushed by global competition
– endless foreign entanglements continue
– America slowly declines like other aging empires

But if America successfully repositions itself at the center of a new energy/manufacturing/trade coalition:

– industrial jobs return
– energy prices stabilize
– strategic industries reshoring accelerates
– infrastructure investment increases
– supply chains become more secure
– America regains leverage instead of bleeding leverage

This is why you see such aggressive pushes around:
• tariffs
• domestic manufacturing
• energy independence
• critical minerals
• Middle East normalization
• India relations
• securing trade routes
• reducing dependency on hostile supply chains
• stabilizing great-power relations through leverage and economic pressure instead of permanent military escalation

This is not random.

This is an attempt to build a new geopolitical architecture for the next 50 years.

And whether people like President Trump or hate him personally is becoming irrelevant to the scale of what is unfolding.

The Abraham Accords themselves are historic because they shift the Middle East from perpetual religious/geopolitical conflict toward economic interdependence.

Peace through prosperity.
Trade instead of proxy wars.
Economic incentives instead of permanent instability.

That changes everything:

– investment floods in
– shipping stabilizes
– energy markets calm
– regional growth accelerates
– tourism expands
– infrastructure projects explode
– security cooperation increases

And if normalization frameworks eventually extend outward toward Russia and even portions of China’s economic system, you could be looking at the emergence of the largest interconnected economic balancing structure in modern history.

Not a utopia.
Not permanent peace.
Not the end of competition.

But a system where economic incentives and strategic leverage become more powerful than endless military occupations and ideological crusades.

The old order was based on permanent management of conflict.

This new model attempts to monetize stability.

Will it fully work? Nobody knows yet. There are enormous risks, contradictions, and power struggles involved. Traditional allies are nervous. Global institutions hate it. Rival powers are cautious. Some countries will resist. Others will attempt to manipulate it.

But Americans should at least understand the scale of the play being attempted here.

This is not “normal politics.”
This is a potential civilizational realignment.

And if younger Americans do not start paying attention to economics, geopolitics, energy, trade, manufacturing, and global power shifts now – they are going to inherit a world they do not understand.

Read. Research. Think critically.
And SHARE this so more Americans understand what may be unfolding in real time.

You may have seen that I intentionally left out Canada and Europe. If you can recall since the start of the tariff wars up until the conflict with Iran, President Trump gave them the opportunity to renegotiate on America’s terms.

Unfortunately, they couldn’t go against their own system that they’ve built over the years so here we are.

Once the dust is settled, they will drag their feet into the fold. They have no other options. Their leverage is gradually diminishing right before their eyes.

But as we all know, the establishment is entrenched all around the world. Evil will not go down without a fight.

If President Trump is successful in effectuating the necessary foundational changes with this new economic alliance, the world will ultimately move in the opposite direction and their systems will naturally be abandoned.

If you look closely at the Abraham Accords and normalization with Israel, it has proven to be a successful agreement. Look at UAE, Egypt, Jordan, Bahrain, etc. Their partnership with Israel has made relationships between the said countries stable. Thereby stabilizing the regions around them. Iran was the major destabilizing factor in this whole thing. Now that they are being brought into the fold through military action and negotiations, whatever deals that get struck out of this situation will pave the way for a brighter future.

Of course, not everything goes to plan. There will be hiccups along the way. There will still be terrorism. But it will all be managed accordingly under the trade partnerships. Win-win for all.

May 26, 2026 – RNC wins North Carolina election integrity case over non-resident voting

Yesterday, the Republican National Committee (RNC) secured a legal victory after a North Carolina court ruled a state board of elections directive that a state law that allowed certain individuals who have never resided in the state to register to vote was unconstitutional.

“This is a clear win for fair and lawful elections,” said RNC Chairman Joe Gruters. “The court upheld the North Carolina Constitution and made clear that only North Carolina residents can vote in the state. The RNC will keep fighting to ensure only eligible citizens can vote.”

On Background:

  • Yesterday, the Wake County Superior Court ruled that the North Carolina Board of Elections violated the state constitution by allowing individuals who were born overseas and have never lived in North Carolina to vote in federal elections in the state.
  • The North Carolina Supreme Court ruled last year in Griffin v North Carolina Board of Elections that people who have never lived in the state cannot vote in state elections.
  •  After the State Supreme Court’s decision, the North Carolina Board of Elections stopped allowing non-residents to vote for state offices but continued to allow them to vote in federal elections.
  • The RNC brought the case to make sure only North Carolina residents can vote in the state’s elections. The North Carolina Supreme Court’s decision was clear: individuals who do not live—and have never lived—in North Carolina are not allowed to choose who represents the people of the state.
  • The court’s ruling does not affect voters who qualify under the federal Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA), which applies to U.S. citizens who have previously lived in a state or who are currently serving overseas.

May 26, 2026 – Mamdani announces plans to begin seizing and redistributing private property

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani kicked off his plan to “fix” the city’s affordability crisis with his official housing policy agenda, titled “Block by Block,” under which one of the first priorities is to allow the government to seize property from owners deemed “negligent” and redistribute it to so-called “responsible stewards,” a category that includes anyone from land trusts, nonprofits, or even tenants themselves.

“Through our new citywide campaign, Fix the City, we will focus on the worst landlords in New York City,” Mamdani announced. “When necessary, we will take aggressive legal action to remove negligent owners and property managers. And for buildings that have suffered chronic neglect, we will work to transfer ownership to responsible stewards. Stewards that include community land trusts, non-profits, or even the tenants themselves.”

Mamdani: The rental ripoff hearings were critical in both underscoring the urgency of this work—we all understand this and yet in New York City the longer you deal with the problem that remains unsolved the more intellectual it starts to feel. It is as if it is a part of life. But when you sit across the table from a tenant who shows you a video of a mother with a young child who is disabled and how that mother has to carry that child in her bare hands every day from the school bus up the steps of the apartment building because that elevator is broken, you leave that room with an understanding of how they need to move to follow-up up on code violations.

In other words, despite Mamdani’s claims that this time his own version of socialism will be different, it appears to be heading down the same familiar path, one that students of history expected upon Mamdani’s victory.

Government redistribution of private property, however, is not the only pillar of Mamdani’s “Block by Block” agenda. He has also vowed to fast-track the construction of low-income and government-subsidized housing, while promising to impose price controls on those units that would limit rent to just a quarter of a tenant’s income.

May 27, 2026 – E. Jean Carroll faces investigation for perjury when saying under oath she had no outside source paying her legal fees

(…) On Wednesday, it was reported that the Justice Department was investigating whether Carroll perjured herself when she said under oath that no outside source was paying her legal fees.

E. Jean Carroll told then-Trump attorney Alina Habba under oath that no one was helping her pay her legal fees.

However, it was later revealed that billionaire Reid Hoffman was bankrolling Carroll’s legal fees.

On Thursday, the US Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Illinois said E. Jean Carroll is not the target of investigation in Chicago.

“In light of wide-spread reporting and intense media and public interest into the E. Jean Carroll matter in New York, the Chicago U.S. Attorney’s Office can confirm that it has not opened—and has never opened—a criminal investigation into E. Jean Carroll. Any claim to the contrary is categorically false,” US Attorney Andrew Boutros said.

CBS News reported:

The Justice Department has launched a criminal investigation into a nonprofit run by billionaire Reid Hoffman that funded a portion of author E. Jean Carroll’s civil litigation against President Trump, several sources familiar with the matter told CBS News.

The investigation, which is being led by the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Chicago, is looking into possible crimes including money laundering, conspiracy and obstruction, the sources said.

CBS News could not immediately learn what prompted the investigation or determine the legal theory of the case. Hoffman could not be immediately reached for comment.

On Wednesday evening, a source familiar with the matter told CBS News that the investigation was focused on whether Carroll had committed perjury during a deposition in connection with her civil lawsuits against Mr. Trump in which she alleged he had sexually abused and defamed her.

On Thursday, however, that source followed up and said Carroll is not the target of the investigation, which is focused on funding that Hoffman’s nonprofit, American Future Republic, provided to help cover some of her legal team’s expenses.

E. Jean Carroll may be the target of a separate investigation.

Carroll previously said that during her deposition, she ‘forgot’ she received funding from Reid Hoffman.

E Jean Carroll being investigated for crimes, as likely are entities or charities tied to Reid Hoffmann given that the investigation is being run out of Chicago.

Hoffmann funded Carroll’s Lawfare suit against President Trump.

So I’ll say something similar to what I just said about Fidelity funding Barfare against Todd Blanche:

So basically, LinkedIn is funding nonsense like Carroll’s suit.

Companies (or their principals) are making money off ordinary Americans only to turn around and use it to try to thwart the political choices made by ordinary Americans.

Meanwhile, you get lectures about DEMOCRACY.

This is bigger than people realize.

E. Jean Carroll is eventually going to go to prison for participating in a “conspiracy” to try and prevent Trump from running for president again.

“The Justice Department has opened a criminal investigation into E Jean Caroll, the former magazine columnist who accused Donald Trump of sexual assault, according to reports.
The DOJ investigation will focus on whether Carroll committed perjury in her civil lawsuits against the president, sources told CNN and ABC News.”

Perjury charges?

I think Trump is going to win his appeals against her court awarded judgments.

“Earlier this month, a federal appeals court rejected Trump’s attempts to rehear his arguments against Carroll, who has accused the president of repeatedly defaming her.”

“The Department of Justice then announced plans to intervene — and stepped in on the president’s behalf in his appeal to the Supreme Court.”

Why would the DOJ step in on Trump’s behalf, in his appeal to the Supreme Court?

Sounds like the DOJ has some solid evidence.

What was E. Jean Carroll caught lying about?

“Federal prosecutors are looking at a 2022 videotaped deposition statement in which Carroll said that she did not get any outside funding for her lawsuit against Trump. It was later made public that billionaire Reid Hoffman had covered some of Carroll’s expenses and legal fees.”

Did you catch that?

She lied about who was funding her lawsuits.

E. Jean Carroll is NOT the “real target.”

Who is?

Reid Hoffman.

Do you know why Reid Hoffman paid E. Jean Carroll to accuse Trump of rape in a defamation lawsuit?

Reid Hoffman was good friends with Jeffrey Epstein.

“Reid Hoffman had a documented relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, meeting him multiple times between 2013 and 2016, years after Epstein’s 2008 conviction as a registered sex offender.”

“Hoffman visited Epstein’s private island, Little St. James, in November 2014, and hosted Epstein at a 2015 dinner in Palo Alto.”

The billionaire cofounder of Linkedin, was friends with Epstein, emailed him a lot and visited Epstein island, where underage children were sexually abused and tortured.

Could that be why Reid Hoffman was desperate to prevent Trump from running for president again?

E. Jean Carroll lied about her connections to Reid Hoffman and then when they were exposed, she claimed she had no communications with him at all.

Do you think that’s true?

What do you want to bet, that the DOJ is in control of evidence, that Hoffman was coordinating with Carroll and she lied about that too?

FISA goes both ways.

Military intelligence captures all forms of electronic data.

Follow the timeline.

E. Jean Carroll publicly accuses Trump of rape in a book she is pushing back in June 2019.

Then one month later, in July 2019, Epstein gets caught by surprise and arrested in New York.

Panic.

Guess when Reid Hoffman first established his “nonprofit” that funded E. Jean Carroll’s defamation lawsuit against Trump?

“Reid Hoffman established the nonprofit American Future Republic in 2019, with specific records indicating its founding date as October 2019.”

“The organization was created as a left-of-center 501(c)(4) social welfare group based in Chicago, Illinois, to fund activist groups and public policy initiatives.”

Hoffman established this nonprofit in October 2019.

One month later, E. Jean Carroll filed her defamation lawsuit against Trump.

Hoffman’s “new” nonprofit, would then go on to fund Carroll’s lawsuits.

I’m sure the timing of all of this was just a coincidence and there is no “evidence of a conspiracy” to frame Trump.

Right?

There are no coincidences.

Reid Hoffman’s nonprofit was based out of Chicago, Illinois.

Guess which prosecutor is bringing these charges against Carroll?

“The investigation, which was first reported by CNN, is being led by US Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois, Andrew Boutros.”

May 28, 2026 – Maine’s Dem candidate for Senate, Graham Platner, mocked fellow war veteran; war veteran responds

Graham Platner, the Maine Democrat running for senate who has been plagued with multiple scandals calling his character into question, was recently exposed once again, for mocking a fellow war veteran and saying that he didn’t ‘deserve to live.’

That veteran is a man named Teddy Daniels and he just wrote an op-ed for the Wall Street Journal, firing back at Platner for his comments.

This weekend, Daniels appeared on CNN and slammed not only Platner, but Senators Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders for backing Platner, despite all of these awful remarks and controversies.

Transcript via Mediaite:

I kind of consider the source on that, first and foremost, and I’ll be honest with you, what really upset me about the comments is — you know, I can’t even say that I was upset. I’m upset about the comment that he made about Chris Kyle. You know Chris Kyle has kids. He’s not here to defend himself.

I have kids and you know with people like Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders backing this man, I want them, I want Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders to — my youngest is 8, he turns 9 in a couple days — to tell my kids that they’re supporting a man who said their father didn’t deserve to live. I mean, think about that. You know, that’s the issue there. It’s just sad that somebody like this is being considered for a position in leadership in the United States Senate.

May 28, 2026 – An ICE detention facility in Newark, New Jersey is under siege; threat made to ICE agent and his family

I’m going to ask the question again: Why Doesn’t the FBI Stop this violent, organized, national activity?

As President Trump is known to say, “don’t make it complicated.” Just look at things as they are, as they present themselves to be, and ask the most obvious questions.

“Domestic Tranquility?” Consider Antifa.

How can a group within America openly threaten police, use violence against police, throw Molotov cocktails, bricks and explosive fireworks at police. Use batons, shields, bats and physical violence against police and federal law enforcement; destroy vehicles, set cars on fire, destroy property, trash and block the streets and create chaos, completely without consequence?

It doesn’t matter where it is happening, that’s irrelevant. Think plainly and simply.

How does any individual or group get to do this without being arrested?

It doesn’t make sense, unless….

…. Unless…. The group conducting the violence cannot be arrested.

Day after day; night after night, in most major metropolitan areas around the nation, the group known as “Antifa” operate with impunity. They are organized; they are funded; they communicate locally, regionally and nationally. They mobilize in designated and coordinated areas of operation, and they are exceptionally violent and dangerous.

So how is it they can operate?

They build encampments outside federal facilities and openly fight with federal officials and law enforcement. Yet, nothing is done. Why not?

If the FBI did not support Antifa, quite simply Antifa would not exist. They are right there, highly visible, doing illegal things on camera, repeatedly, all over the country, and the FBI doesn’t lift a finger to stop them. Why?

The only thing that makes sense is that the FBI wants this activity to take place.

If they did not want it to take place, they would stop it and arrest the lawbreakers who are attacking federal buildings and officers. Why hasn’t the FBI designated antifa as a domestic terrorist organization? The visuals of trashed streets, barricades, smoke bombs, riots, semi-frequent baton clashes in the streets, etc. etc. must serve some purpose for the FBI or they would stop it.

This is not misdemeanor behavior.

Arrest the participants and put them into federal prisons.

This is not complicated.

The FBI supports Antifa. If they did not support them, the FBI would stop them.

Remember this.

May 29, 2026 – Treasury Secretary Bessent confirms a major probe into Antifa’s billionaire funders is underway

SOROS’S ANTIFA MONEY MACHINE IS BEING SHUT DOWN!

Secretary Bessent just confirmed a MAJOR PROBE into Antifa’s billionaire funders is underway and they are making substantial progress.
“There’s substantial progress. We’re going to have a LOT to report.”
The party is OVER for the riot funders.
Thanks to new IRS Form 990 rules, these so-called nonprofits can no longer hide their “cash to riot” schemes. No more secret transfers from globalist foundations straight into Antifa’s street army.
For years they bankrolled the chaos, the burning cities, the division, and the Marxist takeover attempts while pretending it was all organic grassroots resistance. Open borders. Defund the police. Endless lawfare. It was never random. It was orchestrated from the top.
The puppet masters are finally being dragged into the sunlight.
The Deep State’s domestic terror pipeline is about to be completely exposed.
How many billions flowed through these fake charities? Which billionaires have been financing the black-masked brownshirts?
Tick tock, George. The reckoning is coming.
