January 1, 2026 – Somalia’s ambassador to the UN is also tied to Progressive Health Care Services in Ohio

Somalia’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Abukar Dahir Osman, is facing growing scrutiny over his connections to the Ohio healthcare company Progressive Health Care Services Inc. This comes as federal investigations into suspected Somali-linked welfare fraud, stretching from Minnesota to Washington, Ohio, and Maine, continue to intensify, with allegations that some entities (daycares, healthcare, or transportation service companies) were merely front operations to extract taxpayer funds.

The story surrounding Osman is certainly a strange one, with the news and analysis outlet Horn Diplomat publishing a report titled “Ethics Questions Surround Somalia’s UN Envoy, as U.S. Healthcare Fraud Scandals Heighten Scrutiny.”

Here’s the report:

Public corporate filings and professional records have raised questions about transparency and potential conflicts of interest involving Abukar Dahir Osman, Somalia’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations.

The scrutiny comes as Somalia prepares to assume the rotating presidency of the United Nations Security Council on January 1, 2026, a role that places the country at the center of global diplomatic decision-making on peace, security and sanctions.

Ohio state corporate records show that Osman was listed as the statutory agent for Progressive Health Care Services Inc, a Cincinnati-based home healthcare company, while simultaneously serving as Somalia’s top diplomat at the United Nations.

Filings with the Ohio Secretary of State, electronically submitted on October 22, 2018, identify Osman as the company’s agent. He had been appointed Somalia’s UN ambassador in June 2017, creating an overlap of nearly two years between his diplomatic role and his involvement with a U.S. healthcare provider operating within Medicaid-funded systems supported by U.S. taxpayers.

Professional records, including publicly available LinkedIn information, indicate Osman served as Managing Director of Progressive Health Care Services Inc. from 2014 until May 2019, alongside his UN posting in New York.

The overlap has drawn attention because the U.S. home healthcare sector has repeatedly been identified by federal authorities as one of the areas most vulnerable to fraud, abuse and improper billing.

(…) A new bombshell report now reveals that Somalia’s sitting ambassador to the United Nations once worked inside Ohio’s Medicaid bureaucracy, and later ran or represented a healthcare company reportedly placed on a federal fraud exclusion list.

Abukar Dahir Osman, often referred to by the nickname “Baale,” currently serves as Somalia’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, a post he has held since 2017.

As of this month, Osman holds one of the most powerful rotating positions in global diplomacy: President of the UN Security Council.

In that role, he:

  • Oversees Security Council meetings
  • Sets the Council’s agenda
  • Manages resolutions and presidential statements
  • Speaks for the A3+ bloc (African nations plus Caribbean representation) on issues like Afghanistan and Yemen

But before assuming global authority in New York, Osman spent years embedded inside Ohio’s public welfare system.

Osman relocated to the United States in the late 1980s and built his career in Ohio’s taxpayer-funded social services apparatus.

From 1999 to 2012, he worked at the Franklin County Department of Job and Family Services, serving as:

  • Case Manager
  • Social Program Specialist

Osman was also a supervisor for the Medicaid office in Franklin County, Ohio, from 2007 to 2012.

Mr. Osman also founded Beacon Educational Services, according to his profile on the UN.  He served as a consultant for the organization from 2007 to 2010.

The most alarming revelation involves Progressive Health Care Services Inc., an Ohio-based home healthcare company linked to Osman.

According to reporting cited by PJ Media and Prime Business Africa:

  • Osman served as Managing Director of Progressive Health Care Services from 2014 to 2019

  • He was also listed as a statutory agent in 2018, after becoming Somalia’s UN ambassador in 2017 — raising serious conflict-of-interest concerns

Upon reviewing Progressive Health Care Services’ National Provider Identifier (NPI) public profile, Abukar Osman was listed as the President and CEO.

Even more troubling:

Based on research conducted by The Gateway Pundit and reports from social media, Progressive Health Care Services Inc. appears on the November 2025 Updated List of Excluded Individuals/Entities (LEIE) maintained by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General (OIG).

The listing falls under Exclusion Code 1128(a)(1).

Exclusion Code 1128(a)(1) refers to a mandatory exclusion from participation in all Federal health care programs (like Medicare and Medicaid) for individuals or entities convicted of a criminal offense related to fraud, theft, or financial misconduct in connection with providing or billing for health care items or services.

This means they can’t receive federal healthcare payments, and it’s a serious sanction imposed by the HHS Office of Inspector General (OIG).

January 1, 2026 – Ukrainian Ultra-Nationalists commemorate WWII Nazi collaborator Stepan Bandera

Ukrainian far-right activists have marked the 117th birthday of WWII-era nationalist leader and Nazi collaborator Stepan Bandera in the city of Lviv in Western Ukraine.

In footage published by Ukrainian media on Thursday, a line of people holding red flares is seen, meant to honor one of the leaders of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA) during WWII.

The group allied with the invading Nazi Germans to carry out massacres of Poles, Jews, Russians, and Ukrainians they accused of collaborating with the Soviets.

Former Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko declared Bandera and the UPA national heroes in 2010, with his decision reaffirmed by the leadership installed following the 2014 Western-backed Maidan coup.

Ukrainian nationalist groups, especially in the West of the country, regularly commemorate dates connected to other infamous Nazi collaborators, such as Roman Shukhevich, another prominent figure in the UPA.

The Ukrainian authorities’ connivance in the glorification of such controversial figures has recently strained relations with Poland, one of Kiev’s key backers in the conflict with Moscow. (Read more: The 21st Century, 1/1/2026)  (Archive)

January 3, 2026 – Delta Force/law enforcement arrest Nicolás Maduro and wife in Venezuela; Democrats were for it before they turned against it

I have been monitoring the Venezuela issue all day long, and there are so many questions yet to be answered (thanks to great Pentagon OPSEC), but the strategic reason for bringing down Maduro has become abundantly clear.

While we ostensibly captured Maduro based on legitimate, outstanding US drug charges from 2020, the real reason for the military operations early this morning is that neutralizing Maduro’s Venezuela had become a strategic imperative for the USA.

Under Maduro, Venezuela had become the Latin American crossroads for all of the USA’s principal enemies. Maduro was nurturing relationships with Russia, Hezbollah and Iran. Worst of all, Venezuela was eagerly becoming a part of Red China’s Belt & Road initiative.

As America’s enemies were lining up Venezuela as their base of operations in the Western Hemisphere to cause mischief and destruction for the USA, Maduro was at the same time making Venezuela a crossroads, safe haven and enabler for all manner of narcoterrorist operations, ranging from Colombia’s FARC to Mexico’s Sinaloa cartel.

On top of all that, Venezuela had become a key player in the illegal alien invasion of the USA, shipping its very worst to the USA in a deliberate and comprehensive destabilizing operation that might have worked had Donald Trump not won in 2024.

Next in importance: oil. The global and regional ambitions of both China and Russia are in large part dependent on the politics of petroleum, and the USA just deprived both of the cudgel afforded by friendly Venezuelan oil. Trump opponents say “It’s about oil” as if that was a bad thing. Yeah, it’s about oil.

Finally, all of this was in keeping with the most essential and fundamental foreign policy mandate of the USA almost since the nation’s inception: the Monroe Doctrine. Operations like what Maduro was running simply cannot be allowed in the Western Hemisphere. Trump was right for falling back on this most basic of doctrines that protects the USA’s sovereignty.

So was Maduro seized because of some five year-old drug charges? Yes. Legally–yes. However, like so many strategic issues in the world today, an action needed to be backed by the fine points of law, and it was. But the reality is that the Maduro takedown was a Monroe Doctrine-driven necessity that has greatly enhanced the power and national security of the USA.

Congratulations, Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth and the rest of the Trump national security team: you boldly took the steps necessary to defend the USA.

Well done.

Joint Statement from the Department of Justice, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Drug Enforcement Administration

The Department of Justice, working in close coordination with the Department of War, the Department of State, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Intelligence Community, and our interagency and international partners, successfully executed a complex law-enforcement mission to bring Nicolás Maduro into U.S. custody to face justice.

This operation required months of coordination, detailed planning, and seamless execution across multiple components of the federal government. The Department of War led this remarkable effort. We cannot thank our brave military heroes enough.

Specialized FBI and DEA personnel, including tactical and transport teams, worked alongside DOW and our DOJ attorneys and other DOJ components to ensure the secure movement, control, and transfer of 2 high-risk defendants. All personnel involved acted professionally, decisively, and in strict accordance with U.S. law and established protocols. This was a perfectly executed operation with intensive cooperation and trust among President Trump’s team.

The mission was conducted to support an ongoing criminal prosecution tied to large-scale narcotics trafficking and related offenses that have fueled violence, destabilized the region, and contributed directly to the drug crisis claiming American lives.

The United States pursued every lawful option to resolve this matter peacefully. Those opportunities were repeatedly rejected. The responsibility for this outcome rests solely with those who chose to continue criminal conduct rather than disengage.

This operation reflects the Department of Justice’s unwavering commitment to accountability, the rule of law, and the protection of U.S. national security. We are proud of the federal law-enforcement professionals who carried out this mission and of the partnerships that made it possible. God Bless America and God Bless President Trump.

Nicolas Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, have been indicted in the Southern District of New York. Nicolas Maduro has been charged with Narco-Terrorism Conspiracy, Cocaine Importation Conspiracy, Possession of Machineguns and Destructive Devices, and Conspiracy to Possess Machineguns and Destructive Devices against the United States. They will soon face the full wrath of American justice on American soil in American courts. On behalf of the entire U.S. DOJ, I would like to thank President Trump for having the courage to demand accountability on behalf of the American People, and a huge thank you to our brave military who conducted the incredible and highly successful mission to capture these two alleged international narco traffickers.

Democratic members quickly denounced the operation as unlawful. They may want to review past cases, particularly the decision related to the Noriega prosecution. Rep. Jim McGovern (D., Mass) declared:

“Without authorization from Congress, and with the vast majority of Americans opposed to military action, Trump just launched an unjustified, illegal strike on Venezuela. He says we don’t have enough money for healthcare for Americans—but somehow we have unlimited funds for war??”

Trump does not need congressional approval for this type of operation. Presidents, including Democratic presidents, have launched lethal attacks regularly against individuals. President Barack Obama killed an American citizen under this “kill list” policy. If Obama can vaporize an American citizen without even a criminal charge, Trump can capture a foreign citizen with a pending criminal indictment without prior congressional approval.

Massive protests broke out after Nicolás Maduro stole the 2024 presidential election. With his removal, the people of Venezuela may soon be able to vote for the candidate of their choosing. (Credit: Wikimedia Commons)

January 4, 2026 – Rutgers professor says whiteness has an end date. ‘We gotta take these mf’ers out’….’

For eons now, the left has insisted that its fixation on race was all about justice, healing, and honesty. We were told it was a movement designed to understand power, correct past wrongs, and build a more equal society, blah blah blah.

But that phony framing is now collapsing under the weight of what these radical white-hating liberals are saying out loud.

In a recent clip circulating online, a left-wing Rutgers professor speaks about white people, not as human beings, but as some collective moral problem that must be ended.

At one point, she says that “whiteness is going to have an end date” and follows it by saying, “We gotta take these motherfuckers out.”

This is one of the most flagrant, anti-white rants we’ve seen.

We don’t need to say this, but we will… if a white professor spoke this way about black people, there’s no amount of “context” on earth that would save them. And you can bet there’d be no debate about intent or nuance. People’s heads and careers would be rolling down the streets, and the story would dominate national headlines for a year or more.

January 5, 2026 – Georgia State Rep. Karen Bennett, a BLM and defund police activist, is arrested for pandemic fraud

A former Georgia state Democrat lawmaker was federally charged for allegedly fraudulently obtaining nearly $14,000 in coronavirus-era unemployment benefits.

The development comes after Karen Bennett, who used to represent state House District 94, wrote a letter to Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp on Dec. 30 announcing that she would be “retiring” from her position on New Year’s Day after 12 years of service, according to FOX 5 Atlanta.

“As a result of the false application and certifications, Bennett collected a total of $13,940 of PUA [Pandemic Unemployment Assistance Program] benefits and federal supplements to which she was not entitled,” Theodore Hertzberg, the U.S. attorney for the Northern District of Georgia, wrote in a court filing this week.

Prosecutors allege the former representative applied for PUA benefits in May 2020 and disclosed that she worked for the Georgia General Assembly and ran Metro Therapy, a private business where her role consisted “of providing in-home physical therapy services.” They said that in the application, Bennett claimed the job was “her primary occupation and primary means of livelihood” and the “pandemic prevented her from performing any service in connection with” Metro Therapy.

January 5, 2026 – Trump UN Ambassador Mike Waltz torches UN Security Council melt down over the capture of Maduro

United States Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz tore into the U.N. Security Council Monday after the globalist establishment erupted in outraged denunciations over the decisive U.S. military operation that captured socialist tyrant Nicolás Maduro and brought him to New York to face federal narco-terrorism charges.

The U.N. Security Council is headed by Somalia’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Ambassador Abukar Dahir Osman, who assumed the leadership role this month.

REPORT: Somalia’s UN Ambassador, Who Previously Oversaw Medicaid, Also Served as CEO at a Company Reportedly Placed on a Federal Fraud Exclusion List and Banned from Receiving Medicaid Funds

The emergency UN Security Council meeting was called after Maduro’s dramatic weekend capture by U.S. special forces.

The meeting was formally requested by Colombia, a non-permanent Council member for the 2026–2027 term, and aggressively backed by Russia and China, both of which rushed to defend the disgraced dictator and condemn the United States for allegedly violating “international law” and “state sovereignty.”

Full transcript from Waltz’s speech:

“Mr. President, thank you for chairing. And I particularly want to thank you, Ms. De Freitas, for your briefing. And I’ll point out that Ms. De Freitas is in exile having fled the regime. Thank you for your courage and thank you for shedding a light on the true atrocities of the illegitimate Maduro regime.

This past weekend, colleagues, the United States successfully carried out a surgical law enforcement operation facilitated by the U.S. military against two indicted fugitives of American justice, narco-terrorist Nicolas Maduro and Cilia Flores. Colleagues, Nicolas Maduro is responsible for attacks on the people of the United States, for destabilizing the Western Hemisphere, and illegitimately repressing the people of Venezuela.

As Secretary Rubio has said, there is no war against Venezuela or its people. We are not occupying a country. This was a law enforcement operation in furtherance of lawful indictments that have existed for decades. The United States arrested a narcotrafficker who is now going to stand trial in the United States in accordance with the rule of law for the crimes he’s committed against our people for 15 years.

A similar action was taken in 1989 against Manuel Noriega. He was arrested, indicted, convicted in a court of law, served in prison in the United States and in Panama. And the Panamanian people, the American people, are safer for it. And undeniably, the region was more stable.

This law enforcement action was directed consistent with the President of the United States’ responsibility as Commander in Chief to protect Americans at home and abroad, against a fugitive who is directly responsible for narco-terrorism that has killed hundreds of thousands of Americans and created destabilizing violence throughout our hemisphere.

Nicolas Maduro and his co-defendant Cilia Flores have been transferred here to the United States to stand trial for their crimes. Maduro was indicted by a grand jury in the Southern District of New York and faces very serious criminal charges for his involvement in a wide-ranging conspiracy to conduct narcoterrorism, to traffic cocaine and other drugs, and conducting international weapons trafficking. The overwhelming evidence of his crimes will be presented openly in the U.S. court proceedings.

Colleagues, Maduro is not just an indicted drug trafficker; he was an illegitimate so-called president. He was not a head of state.

For years, Maduro and his cronies have manipulated Venezuela’s electoral system to maintain their illegitimate grip on power.

In fact, just two years ago in 2024, a UN panel of experts report found that the election in that year was absolutely and completely a farce and fell well short of the most basic transparency integrity measures essential to upholding credible elections.

If the UN and the United Nations and this body confers legitimacy on an illegitimate narco-terrorist and the same treatment in this charter of a democratically elected president or head of state, what kind of organization is this?

We should note that over 50 countries, many nations, including the European Union, including a number of Latin American countries in the region, and, of course, the United States – again over 50 countries rejected the legitimacy of Maduro’s re-election following the disputed 2024 elections, and do not – do not recognize him as Venezuela’s legitimately elected president.

Maduro unlawfully refused to peacefully cede power after the Venezuelan people voted him out of office in the 2024 election.

So therefore Maduro was a fugitive from justice. He is the head of a vicious Foreign Terrorist Organization Cartel de los Soles.

This regime-sponsored enterprise coordinates with and relies on other vicious criminal organizations, namely Tren de Aragua, again, among others, to carry out its objective of using illegal narcotics as a weapon against the United States.

For its part, Tren de Aragua is a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization with thousands of members, many of whom have unlawfully infiltrated the United States and are conducting irregular warfare and undertaking hostile actions against the American people and against the United States.

Its terrorizing criminals commit brutal crimes, including murders, kidnappings, extortions, and human, drug, and weapons trafficking.

This administration, President Trump will not stand for it. In fact, in March of 2025, President Trump declared that “Tren de Aragua is undertaking hostile actions and conducting irregular warfare against the territory of the United States both directly and at the direction, clandestine or otherwise, of the Maduro regime in Venezuela.”

Maduro and his cronies have partnered with some of the most violent and prolific drug traffickers and narco-terrorists in the world for decades facilitating the flood of illegal drugs coming into the United States, estimated to be several hundred tons annually.

He has become rich, incredibly wealthy, off the misery of untold numbers of Americans, Venezuelans, and others, aiding and abetting international terrorist organizations like Hizballah, coordinating with corrupt Iranian officials, and other malign actors to influence not only the region but to malignly influence the United States.

In fact, in its own 2025 World Drug Report, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime identified Venezuela as a key trafficking route in the Western Hemisphere, the illegal drugs predominantly cocaine entering the United States and increasingly Europe.

As Secretary Rubio stated just yesterday, this is the Western Hemisphere. This is where we live – and we’re not going to allow the Western Hemisphere to be used as a base of operation for our nation’s adversaries, and competitors, and rivals of the United States.

You can’t turn Venezuela into the operating hub for Iran, for Hizballah, for gangs, for the Cuban intelligence agents and other malign actors that control that country.

You cannot continue to have the largest energy reserves in the world under the control of adversaries of the United States, under the control of illegitimate leaders, and not benefiting the people of Venezuela, and stolen by a handful of oligarchs inside of Venezuela.

But it doesn’t stop there. Numerous UN and international human rights organizations have issued reports documenting serious human rights abuses by the Maduro regime, including reports of extrajudicial killings, political prisoners, torture and arbitrary and unlawful detentions.

In fact, over 8 million Venezuelans have fled the country, destabilizing their neighbors in the region and creating the world’s largest refugee crisis.

Members of this Council, colleagues, the United States wants a better future for Venezuela. We believe a better future for the people of Venezuela and for the people of the region and the world is stabilizing the region and making the neighborhood that we live in a much better and safer place.

And this is why millions of Venezuelans that have fled this brutal regime are celebrating and cheering around the world as this body pontificates. Including those celebrating it, including in my home state of Florida, where hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans have fled this regime’s brutality.

I want to reiterate President Trump gave diplomacy a chance. He offered Maduro multiple off ramps. He tried to de-escalate. Maduro refused to take them. President Trump made it clear that the narcoterrorism must stop, and yet it continued.

The United States will not waver in our actions to protect Americans from the scourge of narcoterrorism and seeks peace, liberty and justice for the great people of Venezuela.

I thank you Mr. President.”

January 5, 2026 – Mamdani’s new NYC tenant advocate calls to ‘seize private property,’ blasts homeownership as ‘white supremacy’

Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s newly appointed tenant advocate called to “seize private property” and blasted homeownership as a “weapon of white supremacy” in a series of pro-Communist social media posts.

Cea Weaver, Mamdani’s new director of the city Office to Protect Tenants, made the statements and urged her followers to elect more Communists in several lecturing posts on her now-deleted X account that were unearthed by internet sleuths.

“Seize private property!” she said on June 13, 2018.

She later doubled down on that in a mini-manifesto in August 2019.

“Private property including any kind of ESPECIALLY homeownership is a weapon of white supremacy,” she said then.

Weaver also pushed to “Elect more communists” in December 2017 — when a Harlem street corner was being renamed in honor of former Manhattan Rep. Vito Marcantonio, who was a Communist.

(…) “Without landlords how to do you build and maintain housing? You think the government is going to do it? Look at NYCHA [New York City Housing Authority complexes],” said Humberto Lopes, founder and CEO of the Gotham Housing Alliance.

“You put a system in place to destroy landlords. Why are you s–tting on us?,” he said.

Mamdani wants to freeze the rent on 1 million rent-regulated apartments — a move that would need signoff from the Rent Guidelines Board. (Read more: New York Post, 1/4/2026)  (Archive)

January 5, 2026 – Governor Tim Walz abandons his MN Gov re-election bid

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has announced he will no longer seek a third term.

Governor Walz released a statement Monday morning offering reasoning for his decision.

The statement is as follows:

“Good morning, and Happy New Year.

Like many Minnesotans, I was glad to turn the page on 2025. It was an extraordinarily difficult year for our state. And it ended on a particularly sour note.

For the last several years, an organized group of criminals have sought to take advantage of our state’s generosity. And even as we make progress in the fight against the fraudsters, we now see an organized group of political actors seeking to take advantage of the crisis.

I won’t mince words here. Donald Trump and his allies – in Washington, in St. Paul, and online – want to make our state a colder, meaner place. They want to poison our people against each other by attacking our neighbors. And, ultimately, they want to take away much of what makes Minnesota the best place in America to raise a family. They’ve already begun by taking our tax dollars that were meant to help families afford child care. And they have no intention of stopping there.

Make no mistake: We should be concerned about fraud in our state government. We cannot effectively deliver programs and services if we can’t earn the public’s trust. That’s why, over the past few years, we’ve made systemic changes to the way we do business.

We’ve gone to the legislature time and again to get more tools to combat fraud. We’ve fired people who weren’t doing their jobs. We’ve seen people go to jail for stealing from our state. We’ve cut off whole streams of funding, in partnership with the federal government, where we saw widespread criminal activity. We’ve put new locks on the doors of our remaining programs, and we’ve hired a new head of program integrity to make sure those locks can’t be broken.

All across the state, Minnesotans are hard at work on this problem. Advocates, administrators, investigators are on the front lines defending the integrity of our state’s programs, and I want to thank them for their efforts.

There’s more to do. A single taxpayer dollar wasted on fraud is a dollar too much to tolerate. And while there’s a role to play for everyone – from the legislature to prosecutors to insurance companies to local and county government – the buck stops with me. My administration is taking fast, decisive action to solve this crisis. And we will win the fight against the fraudsters.

But the political gamesmanship we’re seeing from Republicans is only making that fight harder to win.

We’ve got Republicans here in the legislature playing hide-and-seek with whistleblowers.

We’ve got conspiracy theorist right-wing YouTubers breaking into daycare centers and demanding access to our children.

We’ve got the President of the United States demonizing our Somali neighbors and wrongly confiscating childcare funding that Minnesotans rely on.

It is disgusting. And it is dangerous.

Republicans are playing politics with the future of our state. And it’s shameful. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: We welcome ideas from anyone, in any party, who wants to help us continue to stay ahead of the criminals.

And we welcome the involvement of the federal government. I’m grateful to the career professionals at the U.S. Attorney’s office and the FBI who are helping us win this fight.

But I cannot abide the actions of the political leadership in Washington – these opportunists who are willing to hurt our people to score a few cheap points. They and their allies have no intention of helping us solve the problem – and every intention of profiting off of it.

Which brings me to this: 2026 is an election year. And election years have a way of ramping up the politics at a time when we simply can’t afford more politics.

In September, I announced that I would run for a historic third term as Minnesota’s Governor. And I have every confidence that, if I gave it my all, I would succeed in that effort.

But as I reflected on this moment with my family and my team over the holidays, I came to the conclusion that I can’t give a political campaign my all. Every minute I spend defending my own political interests would be a minute I can’t spend defending the people of Minnesota against the criminals who prey on our generosity and the cynics who prey on our differences.

So I’ve decided to step out of the race and let others worry about the election while I focus on the work.

I know this news may come as a surprise. But I’m passing on the race with zero sadness and zero regret. After all, I didn’t run for this job so I could have this job. I ran for this job so I could do this job. Minnesota faces an enormous challenge this year. And I refuse to spend even one minute of 2026 doing anything other than rising to meet the moment. Minnesota has to come first – always.

That’s what I believe servant leadership demands of me. And as an optimist, I will hold out some hope that my friends on the other side of the aisle will consider what servant leadership demands of them in this moment. We can work together to combat the criminals, rebuild the public’s trust, and make our state stronger. But make no mistake: If Republicans continue down this path of abusing power, smearing entire communities, and running their own fraudulent game at the expense of Minnesotans – we will fight back every step of the way.

I’m confident that a DFLer will hold this seat come November. I’m confident that I will find ways to contribute to the state I love even after I’ve left office next January. But there will be time to worry about all that later.

Today, I’m proud of the work we’ve done to make Minnesota America’s best place to live and raise kids – from our new paid leave policy to our child tax credit to our free lunch program.

And I’m doubly proud of the incredible team we’ve put together to make that vision a reality. Thank you to every member of my staff, and every state employee, who’s part of this fight. We need you on the job to tackle the important work ahead.

Most of all, I want Minnesotans to know that I’m on the job, 24/7, focused on making sure we stay America’s best place to live and raise kids. No one will take that away from us. Not the fraudsters. And not the President. Not on my watch.”

President Trump follows with a fiery response:

Trump also retruthed this post on Truth Social:

January 5, 2026 – Pete Hegseth issues a formal Letter of Censure to Sen. Mark Kelly

Six weeks ago, Senator Mark Kelly — and five other members of Congress — released a reckless and seditious video that was clearly intended to undermine good order and military discipline. As a retired Navy Captain who is still receiving a military pension, Captain Kelly knows he is still accountable to military justice. And the Department of War — and the American people — expect justice.

Therefore, in response to Senator Mark Kelly’s seditious statements — and his pattern of reckless misconduct — the Department of War is taking administrative action against Captain Mark E. Kelly, USN (Ret). The department has initiated retirement grade determination proceedings under 10 U.S.C. § 1370(f), with reduction in his retired grade resulting in a corresponding reduction in retired pay.

To ensure this action, the Secretary of War has also issued a formal Letter of Censure, which outlines the totality of Captain (for now) Kelly’s reckless misconduct. This Censure is a necessary process step, and will be placed in Captain Kelly’s official and permanent military personnel file.

Captain Kelly has been provided notice of the basis for this action and has thirty days to submit a response. The retirement grade determination process directed by Secretary Hegseth will be completed within forty five days.

Captain Kelly’s status as a sitting United States Senator does not exempt him from accountability, and further violations could result in further action.

These actions are based on Captain Kelly’s public statements from June through December 2025 in which he characterized lawful military operations as illegal and counseled members of the Armed Forces to refuse lawful orders. This conduct was seditious in nature and violated Articles 133 and 134 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice, to which Captain Kelly remains subject as a retired officer receiving pay.

In a breathtaking display of political theater, Congressional Democrats gathered on the steps of the U.S. Capitol on Tuesday evening for a candlelight vigil to mark the fifth anniversary of the January 6 Capitol event, while once again refusing to condemn years of left-wing riots, arson, and political violence that ravaged American cities with near-total impunity.

Led by House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, the group of Democrats stood in the freezing D.C. air, clutching flickering candles, and singing “God Bless America.”

Family members of law enforcement officers who defended the Capitol on January 6, 2021, joined the event.

The release of President Donald Trump’s new National Security Strategy last month sent shock waves through Washington, echoing far beyond the capital and rippling across global capitals where old assumptions linger like relics of another age.

For the first time in decades, the United States produced a strategic document that is not a polite, consensus-driven paper meant for diplomats in Brussels or business tycoons in Davos, but a declaration of national renewal — a reset of America’s compass after years of inaction, dependency, and ideological confusion.

Far more than a policy paper, the new NSS is a civilizational manifesto of the “America First” era. It marks a break with the tired orthodoxies that defined the post-Cold War consensus, restoring a clarity long missing from American statecraft: the purpose of national power is to defend the nation, enrich and safeguard its people, and conserve its way of life.

That principle, long treated as unfashionable by technocrats and left-liberal strategists, now stands proudly at the heart of U.S. policy. And if this new NSS does anything, it announces that America is done apologizing for wanting to survive — and win.

For too long, the U.S. allowed its future to be welded to Chinese supply chains, outsourcing the muscle of American industry to a geopolitical rival that never disguised its ambitions. The new NSS stops treating this as an unfortunate accident and calls it what it is: a strategic danger that must be reversed.

Where previous administrations spoke vaguely of “managing competition,” Trump’s strategy speaks plainly of ending dependence. Decoupling is not presented as an academic theory but as a national imperative — one that begins by bringing manufacturing home and anchoring what cannot be domestically produced in the Western Hemisphere.

This is not only smart economics but a revival of the older logic of the Monroe Doctrine, updated for the 21st century.

The new NSS makes clear that the Trump administration views the Western Hemisphere as a geopolitical space that contains America’s manufacturing frontier, its energy buffer, and its natural counterweight to the Chinese Communist Party. Where Beijing seeks footholds through ports, pipelines, and party-to-party alliances with socialist governments, Washington now signals that the age of passivity and weakness disguised as tolerance is over.

January 6, 2026 – A Minneapolis Hampton Inn affiliate of Hilton refuses to give DHS agents rooms; Hilton responds

***

Hilton Responds

Photos emerged Thursday showing a crane removing the sign of a Hampton Inn hotel in the Minneapolis area that allegedly refused to accommodate U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents and immigration officers.

The formerly Hilton-branded property in Lakeville was stripped of its Hilton label by the hotel chain on Tuesday morning after a video surfaced appearing to show that the location continued to deny immigration officers despite Hilton Hotels saying that the venue had apologized and that “properties are open to everyone, and we do not tolerate any form of discrimination.”

The images showed the sign being lifted off its supports by a crane set up in the hotel’s parking lot.

Hilton did not immediately respond to a request for comment Thursday from Fox News Digital. It’s unclear who is now operating the hotel. A phone number linked to the property appeared to be disconnected when called.  (Read more: Fox News, 1/08/2026)  (Archive)

January 6, 2026 – Rand Paul redacts an email from a still employed DOJ official Kenneth Courter ordering the arrest of a disabled and innocent Trump supporter

Senator @RandPaul’s office redacted an email from DOJ official Kenneth Courter that shows him ordering the arrest of an innocent Trump supporter.

Courter had NO evidence to go after Christine Crowder, but he still had her placed in a J6 prosecution queue.

Courter is still employed by the DOJ, according to his LinkedIn.

Why is Paul’s office protecting this man?

Why haven’t they called for Courter’s firing?

I reached out to Senator Paul’s office for comment, but they did not respond.

January 6, 2026 – Newsom defies Trump, extends illegal aliens trucker licenses in violation of federal immigration law

Gavin Newsom (Credit: NYT)

California Governor Gavin Newsom, who has driven the state into the ground, is brazenly defying federal immigration law, with the radical left-globalist, anti-American administration now sabotaging efforts to revoke thousands of commercial truck driver’s licenses handed out to foreign nationals—many of them here illegally—exposed in a federal audit.

The move has provoked fierce pushback from the Trump administration, which is calling out the rogue state for jeopardizing American lives on highways.

At the heart of this matter are over 17,000 shady “non-domiciled” commercial driver’s licenses that California recklessly issued to noncitizens, including those without proper immigration status or work authorization. Federal officials uncovered massive fraud and violations—licenses that, under American law, should have been stripped away immediately to protect American citizens.

President Trump’s team gave California a rock-solid deadline to clean up this mess and revoke the illegal licenses, warning that defying the will of the American people would bring serious consequences. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, speaking plainly, said there will be no extensions and no excuses, adding California has no moral or legal right to threaten Americans’ safety.

Instead of putting the American people first, the California DMV arrogantly announced it would drag its feet until early 2026, hiding behind claims of needing “more time” to avoid “mistakes.” Federal authorities see right through this as pure globalist obstructionism, and deliberate stonewalling to shield illegal migrants at the expense of hardworking American families.

Duffy fired back, saying the regime in Sacramento is willfully breaking federal law and endangering Americans on our roads. He warned that California stands to lose up to $160 million in federal highway funds—money extracted from hardworking, law-abiding American taxpayers—if it keeps thumbing its nose at the rule of law.

The Trump administration has already hit back hard, withholding tens of millions in funds and ready to unleash more penalties until California backs down. For President Trump and his team, this is about enforcing our borders and protecting American sovereignty.

Trucking is a deadly serious job involving 80,000-pound rigs barreling down highways full of American families. When drivers lack legal status or authorization, they have no business behind the wheel.

This scandal has been amplified by a string of horrific crashes nationwide caused by foreign drivers with questionable or outright illegal credentials, putting innocent American lives at risk.

Open-borders lobbyists and activist groups like the Sikh Coalition and Asian Law Caucus have rushed to defend Newsom’s anti-American policies, suing to keep these licenses intact and crying about “disrupted livelihoods.”

But from the Trump administration’s America First viewpoint, that’s nonsense: No foreign national—legal or illegal—has an automatic “right” to drive massive trucks on American roads if they can’t meet basic federal standards. Political pressure and leftist lawsuits ought not to override American safety. (Read more: Gateway Pundit, 1/6/2026)  (Archive)

January 6, 2026 – President Trump’s White House honors Americans who died on Jan 6 or as a result of Jan 6 indictments

President Trump’s Administration recognized the victims of the Deep State’s stolen 2020 election and Jan 6 setup who lost their lives.

Innocent Americans died on Jan 6 and after Jan 6 as a result of crimes committed by the Biden regime.

The radical Biden DOJ behaved like a radical communist regime before and after Jan 6.  They stole the election of 2020 from President Trump and the American people and then attacked Americans who called out their crimes.

(…) On Jan 6, 2026, the Trump Administration shared the following at WhiteHouse.gov.

President Trump took decisive action to pardon January 6 defendants who were unfairly targeted, overcharged, and used as political examples. They were not protected by the leaders who failed them. They were punished to cover incompetence.

On his first day back in office, January 20, 2025, President Trump issued sweeping blanket pardons and commutations for nearly 1,600 patriotic Americans prosecuted for their presence at the Capitol—many mere trespassers or peaceful protesters treated as insurrectionists by a weaponized Biden DOJ. He fully pardoned most, commuted sentences, and ordered immediate release of those still imprisoned, ending years of harsh solitary confinement, denied due process, and family separation for exercising their First Amendment rights.

Thousands of Americans paid the price for political failures they did not create.

Since January 6, 2021, Nancy Pelosi spent over 3 years and nearly $20 million in taxpayer funds on her partisan Select Committee, producing a scripted TV spectacle to fabricate an “insurrection” narrative and pin all blame on President Trump.

Video and audio recordings, including unaired HBO footage from her own daughter, show Nancy Pelosi repeatedly acknowledging responsibility for the catastrophic security failures—admitting “We have totally failed” and “I take full responsibility” for not having the National Guard pre-deployed, despite intelligence warnings and President Trump’s offers of troops that were ignored under her leadership as Speaker.

The Democrats masterfully reversed reality after January 6, branding peaceful patriotic protesters as “insurrectionists” and framing the event as a violent coup attempt orchestrated by Trump—despite no evidence of armed rebellion or intent to overthrow the government. In truth, it was the Democrats who staged the real insurrection by certifying a fraud-ridden election, ignoring widespread irregularities, and weaponizing federal agencies to hunt down dissenters, all while Pelosi’s own security lapses invited the chaos they later exploited to seize and consolidate power. This gaslighting narrative allowed them to persecute innocent Americans, silence opposition, and distract from their own role in undermining democracy.

Four good Americans died on January 6, 2021, and the Deep State politicians who stole the 2020 election from the American people lied and claimed that five Capitol Police officers died instead.  No Capitol Police officers died that day.  The Deep State created the Jan 6 riots to take the focus off their massive crimes and make up crimes against innocent Americans.  Communism had come to America.

NONE MOVED IN A YEAR. They sit parked, but are getting paid to transport patients

“I have been to many of these transportation companies and I’ve been time stamping my photographs for a whole year at one facility in Minneapolis and those vans in that parking lot had not moved one inch in an entire year. They’re all still sitting there”

“So when you think about it, you have with the transportation companies, you have the adult care centers. So are they working hand in hand together to then say we’re getting the services from them adult daycare centers to then transport them to their appointments” (and it’s ALL FRAUD)

January 7, 2026 – FireAid charitable donations were misused by funding illegal aliens, podcasters, and non-profits

Organizers of last January’s FireAid benefit concert are once again facing accusations that the $100 million in donations did not directly help victims of the Los Angeles fires, after House Republicans published findings from their investigation on Tuesday.

Rep. Kevin Kiley (R-Rocklin), who helped launch the investigation, claimed the “report highlights where the funds were not used in the way that the donors would likely have wanted them to be used.”

In its report, the House Judiciary Committee stated money went to “left-leaning pet projects, illegal aliens, and the administrative costs related to running non-profit organizations.”

“You had examples of funds used for voter outreach efforts, towards political advocacy groups, towards podcasters, fungus planting, those examples are pretty troubling,” Kiley said. “I do want to be clear, there were many organizations that got funds, nonprofits that are certainly very worthy nonprofits.”

FireAid organizers denied the claims made in the report. They stood by their original promise that all money raised during the concert would go to well-known, vetted nonprofits serving residents of Altadena, Pasadena, Pacific Palisades and Malibu. (Read more: CBS News, 1/7/2025)  (Archive)

The report is broken down into sections that include the following headings:

– $100,000 of FireAid donations went to promote voter participation.

– $550,000 of FireAid donations went to groups involved in political advocacy.

– An unknown amount of money from FireAid donations went towards illegal aliens.

– $100,000 in FireAid donations was sent to podcasters.

– Over $500,000 of FireAid donations were used to pay bonuses, salaries, and consultants for non-profit organizations.

From the report’s conclusion:

FireAid advertised that all donations raised during its benefit concert would go directly to victims of the California wildfires. Unfortunately, this was not the case.55 Instead, money went towards left-leaning pet projects, illegal aliens, and the administrative costs related to running non-profit organizations. FireAid still has $25 million in donated funds to disperse.56 It is critical that the remaining money—donations intended to help Californians in need—be allocated directly to victims of the California wildfires.

January 7, 2026 – Highlights of House Oversight Committee hearing on Minnesota fraud

Full Hearing

Highlights

January 8, 2026 – House axes Omar’s $1M earmark for restaurant-based ‘substance abuse clinic’

During a Thursday interview on Fox Business News with Stuart Varney, Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) said she investigated a $1 million earmark requested by Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) for a substance abuse clinic in Omar’s district and uncovered what she described as “tons of red flags.”

Ernst said the clinic was “housed in a restaurant” and that the three individuals listed as running the operation all shared the same residential address.

After alerting House leadership to her findings, the earmark was subsequently stripped from the spending bill.

Ernst told Varney:

What I uncovered the other day in one of our spending bills making its way through Congress was a $1 million earmark from Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota — which was an earmark that was supposedly going to a substance abuse clinic, which actually happened to be housed in a restaurant and run by three individuals that share the same residential address, according to their IRS paperwork. Tons of red flags.

So this is what we saw with the fraud involving the daycare centers. Now we see other earmarks coming directly from members of Congress where it seems fraud is being perpetrated as well.

So I raised the issue, and fortunately, the House has now stripped that earmark out of that spending bill. But again, this is how easy money has been flowing to bad actors in Minnesota.

January 9, 2026 – Grok data on the number of state and city officials who have spoken publicly against ICE; likely hundreds of such officials have done so

Grok’s question: How many state and city officials across America have spoken publicly against ICE and are there any video examples on X?

Grok’s answer: It’s challenging to provide an exact count of state and city officials who have spoken publicly against ICE (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement), as “public statements” can range from formal declarations and policy announcements to protest participation or media comments, and no comprehensive centralized tally exists. However, based on available data, at least dozens—and likely hundreds—of such officials have done so, particularly in the context of supporting sanctuary policies that limit local cooperation with ICE. For context:

Over 500 jurisdictions (including cities, counties, and states) have enacted sanctuary policies or publicly declared opposition to full ICE collaboration, implying that their elected leaders (e.g., mayors, governors, council members) have voiced criticism or non-cooperation.

States like Illinois, New York, Oregon, New Jersey, and California have laws or directives restricting ICE access, with governors and attorneys general publicly defending these stances to suppress arrests.

In contrast, states like Florida, Texas, Louisiana, and Georgia mandate cooperation, leading to higher ICE activity.

Specific incidents highlight clusters of officials speaking out: For example, more than a dozen New York state and city lawmakers (including senators, assembly members, and the city comptroller) were arrested during a 2025 protest demanding oversight of ICE detention practices, where they condemned the agency.

Governors like Tim Walz (Minnesota) and Kathy Hochul (New York) have criticized ICE operations as “a war” on their states or refused to allow “snatching people off the streets.”

Mayors in cities like Chicago, Denver, and Boston have faced threats of prosecution from federal officials for their opposition.

Broader trends show resistance growing amid Trump administration policies, with officials in non-cooperating areas (e.g., Illinois, Pennsylvania, New York) achieving lower ICE arrest rates compared to cooperating states.

Public declarations against ICE are a key characteristic of sanctuary jurisdictions, per federal definitions.

Video examples:

Yes, there are multiple video examples on X of officials criticizing ICE. Here are a few notable recent ones (from 2025-2026):

These examples often tie into broader calls to abolish or reform ICE, with some dating back to earlier years but many amplified recently amid enforcement surges.

Calls To Abolish ICE

The “Abolish ICE” movement calls for the complete elimination of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), a federal agency established in 2003 under the Department of Homeland Security. Proponents argue that ICE is a relatively new entity (not essential to U.S. immigration enforcement, which existed prior via other agencies), functions as a “rogue” or militarized force responsible for human rights abuses, family separations, deaths in detention, racial profiling, and unaccountable tactics. They propose redistributing its responsibilities (e.g., investigations to other agencies, enforcement reformed or reassigned) to create a more humane system. The slogan gained traction in 2018 amid family separation policies but has seen renewed momentum in 2025–2026 under the second Trump administration’s mass deportation efforts, militarized raids, and high-profile incidents.

Recent Surge in Calls (2025–2026)

Public support has risen sharply, driven by enforcement surges and controversies like the January 2026 fatal shooting of Renée Nicole Good (a 37-year-old U.S. citizen) by an ICE officer in Minneapolis. This incident sparked nationwide protests, vigils, and renewed demands to abolish the agency.

Polls show support climbing: A Civiqs poll indicates 42% of Americans now support abolishing ICE (up from ~20% in late 2024), with 50% opposed. A January 2026 YouGov poll found 52% disapprove of ICE overall (39% approve), with disapproval of its tactics at high levels.

Protests erupted in cities like Nashville, Louisville, Chicago, Minneapolis, and Providence, with demonstrators chanting “Abolish ICE” and holding signs condemning the agency as violent or terrorist-like.

Advocacy groups (e.g., Asian Americans Advancing Justice-Atlanta, CASA, We Are Casa) renewed calls, citing deaths, militarization, and billions in funding for what they describe as state violence.

Some academics and commentators (e.g., University of Iowa professor Victor Ray) framed abolition as a “moderate” position, with extreme rhetoric calling for accountability trials.

Here are examples of protest visuals from rallies calling to abolish ICE:

Key Politicians and Officials Advocating Abolition

The call has been prominent among progressive Democrats, with some introducing legislation or statements.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (U.S. Representative, NY): A longtime advocate; made it central to her 2018 campaign and continues fundraising/advocating amid recent events.

Rashida Tlaib (U.S. Representative, MI): Posted “Abolish ICE now” on X following the Minneapolis shooting.

Shri Thanedar (U.S. Representative, MI): Announced plans to introduce the “Abolish ICE Act” in January 2026, calling ICE irreformable.

Robin Wonsley (Minneapolis City Council Member): Called for ICE to be “abolished altogether.”

Peggy Flanagan (Minnesota Lt. Governor): Stated the current ICE model should be thrown out.

Historical/ongoing: Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, Kirsten Gillibrand (all endorsed in 2018+); others like Pramila Jayapal, Mark Pocan (co-sponsored 2018 abolition bill).

Some officials (e.g., Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey) have harshly criticized ICE (“get the f— out”) without explicitly calling for full abolition, while others push reforms like warrants for arrests or defunding.

The movement faces internal Democratic tension—some moderates view the slogan as politically risky (blamed for electoral losses)—and strong opposition from Republicans, who portray it as anti-law enforcement. Calls often tie into broader demands for accountability, including investigations into recent deaths and restrictions on ICE funding. The debate remains heated, with public disapproval of ICE at record highs amid ongoing enforcement. (Grok, 1/9/2026)

January 9, 2026 – Leftist admits protesting at Minneapolis ICE facility is her job: ‘I’m getting paid right now!’

A leftist protesting outside the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Minneapolis on Friday admitted on camera she was there because it is literally her job.

Video footage from conservative journalist Nick Sortor showed Fox News host Laura Ingraham talking to so-called “protesters” outside the facility. Ingram asked a woman wearing a red jacket and face covering if she had a job.

The woman, who kept shouting, “Shame! Shame!” finally answered Ingram’s question by stating, “I’m getting paid right now!” and Ingram reacted with a thumbs up:

The news comes as leftist groups quickly mobilized to protest after a woman was fatally shot during an incident on Wednesday involving an ICE agent in Minneapolis, per Breitbart News.

Brandy Shufutinsky, who is director of the Education and National Security Program at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, said, “It’s the same network of people that have thousands of Americans blocking the streets, waving communist and terrorist flags, and attacking law enforcement and innocents. They are stoking the grievance industry that they built.” (Read more: Breitbart News, 1/9/2026)  (Archive)

January 9, 2026 – Trump withdraws the U.S. from the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change and 65 other globalist institutions

Trump speaks to the World Economic Forum via live video, January 2025 (Credit: AP)

This is factually a much bigger deal, a bigger win, than most will initially appreciate.

As many deep political followers well understand, the 66 organizations that President Trump has just withdrawn from represent a large network of sanctioned government organizations that structurally support the globalist agenda.

President Trump has issued an executive order [SEE HERE] “Withdrawing the United States from International Organizations, Conventions, and Treaties that Are Contrary to the Interests of the United States.” These institutions, including the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, are mechanisms that exist to underpin globalist objectives.

Each of the institutions carry “membership fees” or financial obligations each participating government pays into. Each organization consists of board members, stakeholders and other administrative offices which employ the friends and families of current and former politicians, world “leaders” and essentially well-connected and disconnected elites who run the agencies. It’s like a massive network of NGOs, except the entities exist exclusively with government funding.

Just like the United Nations itself, the USA always pays the dues, fees and largest portion of the operating expenses, which includes payrolls and travel benefits. Other countries participate, but it is the USA who picks up the largest portion of the financial obligations for the organization itself to exist.

Like USAID, the designated “global” organizations (conventions, treaties, etc) operate as massive bureaucratic rule makers for global standards and practices. The organizations themselves employ a network of downstream entities, agencies, contractors, think-tanks, academic liaisons and internal government offices who collaborate with the goals and objectives of the parent organization.

Inside each of these agencies and institutions you find the friends and families of the power brokers who run global -mainly western- systems of government. Withdrawing the support of the U.S. means cutting that entire apparatus off from receiving funding from the USA. Europe and the USA are the largest funders of each of these World Economic Forum aligned agencies.

It is not coincidental that President Trump and Secretary Rubio are making this move in advance of President Trump traveling to Davos, where the network associations congregate. President Trump is expected to deliver a bucket of ice water upon the heads of those who attend Davos annually.

The GREAT RESET crew, who design the global government customs and norms, is being reset.

This move is massive in relation to their financial dependency on the United States participating in the various schemes.

This is a big deal, and President Trump has put Secretary of State Marco Rubio in charge of dismantling it.

DONALD J. Trump [LINK]

• This is essentially deconstructing the George H.W. Bush “New World Order” as established over decades by governing elites, financial institutions & western governments.  • This is removing a massive network of agencies and operations, and the Bush-era 1992 U.N Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC) is still only one part of it.

• This is tectonic geopolitical plate shifting with ramifications that are beyond most persons understanding.

Each of these global regulatory processes, policies and constructs, then creates an office within the U.S. government for regulatory enforcement and compliance.

Each treaty, convention and organization creates a bureaucracy within the U.S. govt to comply with it. That bureaucracy then expands govt spending far beyond the initial costs. (i.e. annual membership fees, association fees, and internal agreement payments for each participating govt).

We pay to join the agreement, we agree to the terms of the agreement, then we have to pay to organize our own offices to align with the agreement we just joined.

It gets worse….

Each agency within govt then has to create a subsidiary office for their specific compliance with the larger network. So, you have a DC govt compliance system, and an agency compliance system that is topic specific to that particular agency.

The 1992 UN Framework Convention on Climate Change as an example, means every single agency from HHS to DOD to FEMA to DHS to the entire apparatus of govt, all of them, need to have a corresponding office to create agency specific rules that comply with the originating charter.

You see, it’s not just the Federal Govt paying the U.N a membership fee for the Framework Convention on Climate Change, but each agency within govt then has to pay an office staff filled with lawyers, compliance officers, and bureaucratic nonsense teams that carry out the charter of the agreement we just signed up to.

Each of the 66 outlined “agreements” can end up generating hundreds or thousands of federal employees that are tasked with U.S. administration of the agreement.

Each of those federal employees has an expense account, credit card, vehicle, or voucher method, some form of indulgency, that connects them to the larger spending graft.

What Trump has done is a much bigger detonation than most will initially contemplate.

Thousands of well-connected DC employees, wives of politicians, brothers, sisters, in-laws, friends and family members, will now lose their income streams.

♦ This is also happening as President Trump has presented the 2026 National Security Strategy.  A stunning 33-page outline reprioritizing all of the interests and objectives of the United States government.

On December 6, 2025, President Trump put the world on notice that sovereign U.S. interests would be baseline for all of our strategic foreign policy approaches; particularly Europe was put on notice.

On January 7, 2026, President Trump is putting the world on notice that all of these various self-restricting global systems, institutions and mechanisms will no longer be supported by the United States.  Thousands of downstream beneficiaries that exist -in majority- from U.S. participation and underwriting, are going to be scrambling trying to find a way to retain their status.

President Trump’s upcoming speech to the World Economic Forum should be epic.

WASHINGTON, Jan 7 (Reuters) – U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and Energy Secretary Chris Wright will join President Donald Trump at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, a source familiar with the plans said on Wednesday.

U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and special envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff will also be part of the planned delegation, the source said.

Trump will attend this year’s annual meeting of the World Economic Forum in person, after addressing the gathering by video link last year, four days after returning to the White House for a second term.

This year’s meeting is scheduled for January 19-23. {source}

January 9, 2026 – Portland Police Chief cries while confirming Tren de Aragua ties in Border Patrol shooting

Portland’s police chief broke down in tears Friday while confirming that two illegal immigrants shot by a federal agent had suspected ties to the violent Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua. Police Chief Bob Day said the two suspects wounded in a U.S. Customs and Border Protection encounter had a “nexus” to the gang, backing up a Department of Homeland Security statement released earlier in the day. “They do have some nexus to involvement with TDA. We can confirm that,” Day said, pausing as he choked up during a news conference.

***

Yesterday [1/8/2026], two suspected Tren de Aragua gang associates—let loose on American streets by Joe Biden—weaponized their vehicle against Border Patrol in Portland. The agent took immediate action to defend himself and others, shooting them.

The driver of the vehicle, Luis David Nico Moncada is a criminal illegal alien from Venezuela and suspected Tren de Aragua gang member. He illegally entered the U.S. in 2022 and was RELEASED into the country by the Biden administration. Since then, he was arrested for DUI and unauthorized use of a vehicle. He has a final order of removal.

The passenger, Yorlenys Betzabeth Zambrano-Contreras is a criminal illegal alien from Venezuela and is associated with Tren de Aragua. She illegally entered the U.S. in 2023 near El Paso, Texas, and was RELEASED into this country by the Biden administration. Since illegally entering, Contreras played an active role in a Tren de Aragua prostitution ring and was involved with a prior shooting in Portland.

The target of the Border Patrol traffic stop in Portland was TDA affiliate Yorlenys Betzabeth Zambrano-Contreras, an illegal alien from Venezuela. Since illegally entering the United States in 2023, Zambrano-Contreras played an active role in a Tren de Aragua prostitution ring and is connected to a recent shooting in Portland.

The driver of the vehicle was Luis David Nico Moncada, suspected Tren de Aragua gang member with a FINAL ORDER OF REMOVAL. He illegally entered the U.S. in 2022 and was RELEASED into the country by the Biden administration. Since then, he has been arrested for DUI and unauthorized use of a vehicle.

Both individuals are currently hospitalized. The FBI will assume custody upon their release.

“The constant lies that they are putting out to their constituents – saying things like kidnapping, disappearing – it is encouraging these people to continue violating the law. They’re putting their constituents and their citizens in danger.” @USBPChief

This unprecedented increase in violence against law enforcement is a direct result of sanctuary politicians and the media creating an environment that demonizes our law enforcement and encourages rampant assaults against them.

The brave men and women of DHS will not be deterred and will continue arresting the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens.

Oregon Gov. Tina Kotek Says State is ‘Shaken and Outraged’ at Shooting of Tren de Aragua Gangbanger 1/10/2026

January 9, 2026 – Who is behind the anti-ICE protests we’re seeing explode across the US?

For years, I’ve been working independently but today I had the honor of working with a remarkable team at @FoxNews Digital, where I just joined as senior editor of investigations, and bring you back a story like none other I’ve been able to publish.

I worked all day with video editor @LanumNikolas and reporter @M_Dorgan — please follow them! — and we established, step-by-step that a network of groups – self-described as socialist, Marxist-Leninist or communist – are coordinating the multi-city mobilization that we’re seeing from NYC to Chicago, Minneapolis, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Seattle, Atlanta, Burlington, Vt., Washington, D.C. and New Orleans, vilifying @DHSgov @Sec_Noem and ICE officers and sowing discord on the streets.

Read our story here and look at Nik’s photos, documenting the evidence: https://foxnews.com/us/socialist-groups-ramp-up-nationwide-anti-ice-protests-target-noem-nyc

It’s reporting that you won’t see just about anywhere else, as most media outlets don’t name the names of the groups behind the protests and don’t identify the ideologies they embrace.

Watch Nik’s video ⬇️ because, and you’ll see the receipts and you’ll hear the honest remarks of a young protestor we interviewed.

“I personally identify as a Marxist-Leninist-Maoist, following the teachings of [former communist China leader] Mao Zedong,” said demonstrator Tye Burrus, 18, who held a handmade sign depicting a hammer and sickle smashing a giant ice cube.

Burrus, a member of the Party for Socialism and Liberation who self-identifies as a transgender woman, said losing faith in the Democrats and never having faith in the Republicans led to embracing communism. ​

“So now I am a communist,” Burrus said.

Going into the streets of the New York City protest and studying protests nationwide this is who we found from the far-left network:

1⃣ Freedom Road Socialist Organization @FreedomRoadOrg – A self-described communist group immediately dispatched its members to the site of the killing in Minneapolis, and they are the ones behind clashes with ICE officers. The FBI has investigated the group – whose members wear distinct red swag marked with FRSO – as a “revolutionary socialist and Marxist-Leninist organization,” citing alleged ties to foreign Marxist-Leninist extremist groups, including the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, the Communist Party of the Philippines, and the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, known as FARC. Link to the internal FBI documents made public https://vault.fbi.gov/freedom-road-socialist-organization/freedom-road-socialist-organization-final/view

2⃣ @PeoplesForumNYC — Protest leaders arrived at AM, just before the 9 AM start for the protest in New York City, hauling two shopping carts full of bullhorns and pre-made black-and-white signs, printed with the message, “JUSTICE FOR RENEE NICOLE GOOD,” and a photo of Good, with “PARTY FOR SOCIALISM AND LIBERATION” across the bottom. It’s a nonprofit activist hub for groups include @AnswerCoalition, and it’s received funding from a tech tycoon, Neville Roy Singham, with close ties to the Chinese Communist Party. It stage-managed most of the day’s protest in NYC.

3⃣ Party for Socialism and Liberation @PSLNational — Their organizers handed out the signs asking folks standing around: “Want a sign?” They organized protests across their national network, and they work closely with The People’s Forum.

4⃣ Democratic Socialists of America @DemSocialist — Its members joined the NYC march, wearing their distinct red beanies with DSA across the front, while its member NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani repeated the talking points of the socialist groups, saying the ICE officer “murdered” the woman. They are also organizing protests across their national network.

5⃣ Revolutionary Internationalist Youth from City University of New York — The carried handmade signs and copies of their newspaper, “The Revolution,” which said they promoted “the program of Marx, Lenin, and Trotsky.”

6⃣ Spartacist League members from the U.S. chapter of the International Communist League – They distributed copies of “Workers Vanguard,” which calls itself a “Marxist Newspaper”

The socialist-adjacent groups joining them in using this moment to organize protests are:
7⃣ @IndivisibleTeam – Closely aligned with the Democratic Party, it organized #HandsOff #NoKings marches all year and is now organizing protests nationwise.

8⃣ 50501 – It also organized #TeslaTakedown protests against Elon Musk and is throwing its muscle behind anti-ICE protests.

9⃣ @RefuseFascism – They moved through the crowd in NYC, handing out slick, freshly printed pamphlets titled “The People’s Indictment of Donald Trump,”

Why does it matter to know these names?

Stu Smith @thestustustudio, a @ManhattanInst researcher who studies domestic extremism, explained, “I just wish the average American realized that there is a network of far-left agitators in America who are Marxist-Leninists, socialists, Maoists and even North Korean apologists.”

“As these ideologues say, the issue is never the issue,” he told us. “It’s all about the revolution. After this terrible situation in Minneapolis, they used social media and their networks to mobilize and get on the streets to hurt America.”

You’ve heard me say it before. Look at the evidence yourself. Read the signs shared by journalists like @MrAndyNgo. Follow the money with data scienctists like @DataRepublican. Study the breadcrumbs. I’m honored to work with this team to bring our reporting from the streets back to you.

January 9, 2026 – Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and his wife have deep ties to the $250 million Feeding Our Future fraud scandal

In the heart of Minneapolis, where progressive politics often masks a labyrinth of insider dealings and questionable alliances, a scandal of epic proportions has been simmering for years. The Feeding Our Future fraud case, widely regarded as one of the largest COVID-era scams in U.S. history, siphoned off an astonishing $250 million in federal funds meant to feed hungry children. Instead, the money lined the pockets of fraudsters, funding luxury cars, lavish homes, and overseas wire transfers. But as new revelations emerge, the spotlight turns to none other than Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, whose personal and professional connections raise serious questions about conflicts of interest, potential complicity, and why he’s so vehemently defending elements tied to this mess.

In Minneapolis, the story isn’t just about stolen taxpayer dollars; it’s about a mayor whose wife worked for the very lobbying firm that shielded the fraudsters, whose campaign coffers swelled with donations from indicted players, and whose appointees ended up in federal crosshairs. With the Trump administration now in power and calls for accountability echoing from Washington, it’s time to pull back the curtain on Frey’s entanglements. Let’s follow the money, the relationships, and the timeline.

The Feeding Our Future Scandal: A Primer on the Heist

Feeding Our Future was a Minnesota nonprofit founded in 2016 by Aimee Bock, ostensibly to distribute meals to children in need through federal child nutrition programs administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). During the COVID-19 pandemic, when oversight was relaxed to expedite aid, the organization exploded in size. By 2021, it claimed to be serving millions of meals at hundreds of sites across the state. But federal investigators allege it was all a sham: fake meal counts, shell companies, kickbacks, and money laundering on a massive scale.

(…) But Feeding Our Future didn’t operate in a vacuum. It relied on legal and lobbying muscle to fend off early scrutiny from the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE), which flagged suspicious growth as early as 2020 and began denying site applications. Enter Hylden Advocacy & Law, a powerhouse Minneapolis firm known for its cozy ties to Democratic leaders, including Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison.

Sarah Clarke: The Mayor’s Wife at the Center of the Storm

Mayor Jacob Frey’s wife, Sarah Clarke (also known as Sarah Stephens Frey), was no peripheral player. Until January 2022, the exact month of the FBI raids, Clarke served as a lobbyist and government liaison at Hylden Advocacy & Law. The firm, led by Nancy Hylden, provided legal representation and lobbying services to Feeding Our Future, appearing in court alongside Bock and helping the nonprofit navigate regulatory hurdles. Hylden’s tagline? “Your friend at the Capitol.” And friends they were: the firm was listed in Feeding Our Future’s annual reports to the Minnesota Attorney General as far back as 2019.

Clarke’s abrupt departure from the firm coincided precisely with the federal crackdown, leaving behind a trail of unanswered questions. Was it coincidence, or did insider knowledge from City Hall or federal connections prompt her exit? Frey has denied any awareness of the fraud, and no charges have been filed against Clarke, Hylden, or the mayor himself. But critics point to Frey’s reported friendship with U.S. Attorney Andy Luger, who oversaw the indictments, as a potential shield. In a city where politics is personal, such relationships demand scrutiny.

Hylden’s reach extends further. The firm also lobbied for the Somali Museum of Minnesota, founded by Osman Ali in 2011. Ali pleaded guilty to fraud in a separate case, yet the museum received $4.5 million in state funding just months later. This isn’t isolated; Minnesota’s Somali community has been at the epicenter of multiple fraud schemes, including a $104 million housing scam, $399 million in autism fraud, and billions in remittances to Somalia. Hylden’s involvement in these orbits raises red flags about how lobbying dollars influence public funds.

January 10, 2026 – New docs reveal Jack Smith team approved $20k payment to informant to snitch on Trump team during Arctic Frost probe

(…) But the biggest bombshell in the latest document was the revelation that the FBI had an informant that Smith’s office approved for compensation for the dirt he or she shared with the FBI.

An electronic communication “documents prosecutorial approval, in the form of emailed concurrence from Counselor to the Special Counsel Raymond Hulser on 06/02/2023, of a payment for information in the amount of $20,000.00 to [name redacted] for information provided in support of captioned investigation,” one memo reads.

“The payment was discussed by Raymond Hulser and Assistant Special Counsel Julia Gegenheimer with Special Counsel Jack Smith,” the memo added.

The memos showed the chain of approval with an FBI agent who wrote to Smith’s office on June 2, 2023.

“As discussed, request your office’s concurrence in our proposed payment of $20,000 for CHS’ provision of information in support of the investigation,” the agent wrote.

Hulser wrote back succinctly, “Concur, thank you.”

You can read some of the memos here:

Patel told Just the News that the release of the documents were part of a larger effort by the FBI to ensure all evidence of law-enforcement  and weaponization is made public and given to congressional oversight committees after years of it being withheld or hidden under past directors.

“Under my leadership, the FBI is producing documents at record speed to get the facts straight to the American people. What occurred in the Arctic Frost matter was an egregious abuse of power and violation of the law. This FBI is committed to restoring accountability and public trust,” he said.

There have long been rumors of an informant that the FBI used to build the Arctic Frost case, and the new memos are certain to spur intrigue as to the person’s identity and whether they were a Trump insider.

Arctic Frost has generated controversy because it secured an order from U.S. District Judge Boasberg that let the executive branch, in the form of Smith’s office, obtain the phone records of eight U.S. senators and one congressman and swept up information from hundreds of conservative figures and groups.

January 10, 2026 – Scott Bessent: ‘When the bear trap snaps’ Minnesota fraudsters and complicit officials will face justice

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent (Credit: public domain)

Christopher Rufo’s bombshell reporting on Minnesota’s Somali fraud schemes ignited a massive federal crackdown — now, in this exclusive interview, he sits down with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent for the latest on the escalating investigations.

While fraud rings in Minnesota’s Somali community have been under federal investigation for years, it was investigative journalist and BlazeTV host Christopher Rufo’s reporting that brought the billion-dollar scandals to national attention. Back in November 2025, Rufo published a report titled “The Largest Funder of Al-Shabaab Is the Minnesota Taxpayer,” in which he and co-author Ryan Thorpe alleged that billions of taxpayer funds were being stolen through schemes in Minneapolis’ Somali community and that millions of those funds were being funneled to the Al-Shabaab terror group in Somalia.

Rufo’s reporting sparked massive federal action, including revoking Temporary Protected Status for Somalis, surging Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations, freezing child-care funds, and ramping up prosecutions. Most notably, it led Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to visit Minnesota in January 2026 and launch major FinCEN probes into hawala businesses, IRS audits, and enhanced transfer reporting.

In this exclusive BlazeTV interview with Rufo, Bessent shares what his team’s investigations have revealed about Minnesota’s Somali fraud operations and what steps the Treasury is taking to ensure it stops.

(Read more: BlazeTV, 1/12/2026)  (Archive)

In the same interview, Scott Bessent also said:


“It’s hard to follow the money. There are evidently some disturbing tapes of AG Ellison in meetings with people who donated to him—calling for political favors to stop the investigations. We’ll see. I don’t want to get out ahead of the investigation. It’s going to be very methodical. But I can guarantee you—when the bear trap snaps, we’re going to get these folks. We’re going to follow the money, whether it’s here in Minneapolis and St. Paul or over in East Africa. There are tons of luxury properties and cars that have been bought over there.”

January 10, 2026 – Criminal histories of illegal aliens recently captured in MN by ICE that anti-ICE protesters risk all to protect and state officials fondly call their “neighbors”

BREAKING: ICE has provided @FoxNews a list of the most egregious criminal aliens they’ve arrested during their surge in the sanctuary state of Minnesota, & it’s the most disturbing list I’ve ever seen, including numerous convicted child rapists/sodomizers & ten convicted killers, most with deportation orders going back many years. Several from Laos, Somalia, and Sudan.

WARNING GRAPHIC – Highlights below:

Sriudorn Phaivan, a Laotian illegal alien convicted of strong-arm sodomy of a boy & strong-arm sodomy of a girl with a deportation order since 2018.

Tou Vang, a Laotian illegal alien convicted of sexual assault and sodomy of a girl under age 13 and procuring a child for prostitution with a deportation order since 2006.

Chong Vue, a Laotian illegal alien convicted of the strong-arm rape of a 12-year-old girl and kidnapping a child with intent to sexually assault her, with a deportation order since 2004,

Ge Yang, a Laotian illegal alien convicted of strong-arm rape, aggravated assault with a weapon, and strangulation with a deportation order since 2012.

Pao Choua Xiong, a Laotian illegal alien convicted of rape and child fondling with a deportation order since 2003.

Kou Lor, a Laotian illegal alien convicted of rape, rape with a weapon, and sexual assault with a deportation order since 1996.

Hernan Cortes-Valencia, Mexican illegal alien convicted of sexual assault of a child and DUI with a deportation order since 2016.

Abdirashid Adosh Elmi, a Somalian illegal alien convicted of homicide.

Gilberto Salguero Landaverde, a Salvadoran illegal alien convicted of three counts of homicide with a deportation order since June 2025.

Gabriel Figueroa Gama, a Mexican illegal convicted of homicide who has been previously deported in 2002.

Galuak Michael Rotgai, a Sudanese illegal alien convicted of homicide.

Thai Lor, a Laotian illegal alien convicted of two counts of homicide with a deportation order since 2009.

Mariana Sia Kanu, an illegal alien from Sierra Leone convicted of two counts of homicide with a deportation order since 2022.

Aldrin Guerrero Munoz, a Mexican illegal alien convicted of homicide with a deportation order since 2015.

Abdirashid Mohamed Ahmed, a Somalian illegal alien convicted of manslaughter with a deportation order since 2022.

Mongong Dual Maniang Deng, a Sudanese illegal alien convicted of attempt to commit homicide, weapon possession, and DUI.

Aler Gomez Lucas, a Guatemalan illegal alien convicted of negligent homicide with a vehicle and DUI with a deportation order since 2022.

Shwe Htoo, a Burmese illegal alien convicted of negligent homicide.

ICE says all of these criminal aliens were roaming freely in the sanctuary state of Minnesota prior to arrest, and that these are the type of people that politicians and activists are referring to as their “neighbors” as they attempt to interfere with ICE.

January 11, 2026 – DOJ subpoenas Fed over Powell testimony on renovation overruns

Jerome Powell’s latest statement is nothing more than a desperate attempt to save his own skin. After the criminal investigation into his misleading testimony about the Fed’s extravagant renovations became public, he now claims the DOJ is threatening the entire institution over interest rate policy. This is a classic deflection tactic.

The probe centers on whether Powell lied to Congress about the massive costs and scope of those headquarters upgrades, not on monetary policy decisions. By pivoting to accusations of pressure over rates, he tries to paint himself as a victim defending the Fed’s independence while conveniently sidestepping the real issue: his own potential perjury.

President Trump has every right to demand accountability from unelected bureaucrats who control the nation’s money supply. The Federal Reserve is not above the law, and refusing to answer legitimate questions from Congress should carry consequences. Powell’s attempt to flip the narrative only highlights how deeply entrenched the resistance to real oversight has become.

This escalation shows the establishment is rattled. If the investigation continues to gain traction, Powell will face mounting pressure to step down, opening the door for Trump to appoint a chair who actually prioritizes American workers, lower borrowing costs, and economic growth instead of protecting bloated budgets and insider perks.

Markets would welcome the change. Removing obstacles to sound policy would signal a return to fiscal discipline and reward productive investment. Powell’s spin cannot hide the facts: transparency is long overdue, and the current leadership has failed to deliver it. The momentum is clearly on the side of those demanding real reform.

The probe focuses on a $2.5 billion upgrade to the Fed’s Washington buildings, where costs ballooned from $1.9 billion, sparking a July 2025 criminal referral by Rep. Anna Paulina Luna over Powell’s congressional statements denying luxury features like a VIP dining room and premium marble—elements documents later referenced before being scaled back. Powell called the subpoenas pretexts amid clashes with President Trump on interest rates, while U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro said her office was ignored on questions about overruns. Republicans split, with some vowing to block Fed nominees until resolved, as markets showed mild reaction and Powell’s term ends in May 2026. (X.com/Trending)

The United States Attorney’s Office contacted the Federal Reserve on multiple occasions to discuss cost overruns and the chairman’s congressional testimony, but were ignored, necessitating the use of legal process—which is not a threat.

The word “indictment” has come out of Mr. Powell’s mouth, no one else’s. None of this would have happened if they had just responded to our outreach.

This office makes decisions based on the merits, nothing more and nothing less. We agree with the chairman of the Federal Reserve that no one is above the law, and that is why we expect his full cooperation.

From April 2024:

BREAKING, INSIDE THE FEDERAL RESERVE: Hidden Camera captures Principal Economist @federalreserve talking about Jerome Powell’s legacy as “somebody who held the line against like, Trump.” The influential agency responsible for maintaining a stable monetary system appears to not just be establishing interest rates, but to be setting policies for desired social outcomes.

“Under Powell, the Fed has changed to think about equity issues, like racial issues, think about wealth inequality as part of the mandate, as part of the things we are following. Think about climate change.” Aurel Hizmo, Principal Economist at the Federal Reserve, who prior to working at the Fed was an Assistant Professor @NYUStern and received his PhD in Economics from @DukeU, helps write speeches for Federal Reserve Board Chair Jerome Powell for the Federal Open Market Committee.

Hizmo says “Trump is just a crazy person” and conservatives are “dumb” as he describes to OMG’s American Swiper Citizen Journalist a politicized Federal Reserve Board where Powell has promoted ESG issues like climate change and “wants to be remembered in history” “as a savior.” But shhh…don’t tell anyone because Hizmo says: “I’m just really worried that I’m saying stuff that’s classified…It’s all classified.”

Then, it appears we were CHASED down the interstate by another one of their goons.

I have to post this now because these idiots called the police on me saying I had a gun and was “running innocent protestors over”

You can try to terrorize me all you want. BUT I WILL NEVER STOP, AND NEVER SHUT UP.

“This is the moment @nicksortor was forced to drive away as a mob SURROUNDED his vehicle, smashed the windows, and spray painted the car,” Higby posted. “Rioters have now told @MinneapolisPD that we have guns. The rioters repeatedly threatened to [kill] us.”

Higby later posted video showing the frozen water bottles that he said were thrown at their truck, breaking the back window.

“They should be arrested for attempted [fucking] murder,” Sortor posted on X. “They beamed frozen water bottles through the windows, and if one of us would’ve been struck, we could’ve easily been [killed.] This was planned. But luckily, I drove away, so they beamed them through the back window instead.”

January 11, 2026 – Kristi Noem surges HSI officers in Minnesota to hunt down child sex traffickers; “It’s so prevalent in Minnesota.”

Kristi Noem says that they have surged HSI officers in Minnesota specifically to hunt down child sex traffickers.

“We’ve surged HSI officers there specifically to focus on sex trafficking and child trafficking. It’s so prevalent in Minnesota. It’s horrific.

And we brought dozens and dozens of those individuals to justice already. We’re gonna keep hundreds of HSI officers there to continue to protect those children.

Every day we get another individual that was sexual assault against a child. Sodomy against a child.

I can’t believe that the mayor and governor can defend allowing those people to go out there and victimize more of our children and grandchildren.”

Infuriating. When see you see these dumbass leftists protesting in the streets, just know that they are out there protecting pedophiles.

At this point, how can anyone claim that the Democrats are the “good guys”?

January 12, 2026 – House “Republican Leadership” is attempting to funnel $315 million to the National Endowment for Democracy (NED)

RINO ALERT: House “Republican Leadership” is attempting to FUNNEL $315 MILLION of YOUR TAX DOLLARS to the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), a left-wing propaganda outfit.

NED is a Deep State slush fund exposed by DOGE for spending BILLIONS on regime-change ops, color revolutions, and woke activists to topple governments.

NED is the CORE of the global Censorship Industrial Complex, a CIA cutout redefining “democracy” for elitist control, using backchannel deals with the EU to silence conservatives worldwide.

Thomas Massie (R-KY) has introduced an AMENDMENT to DEFUND NED entirely in the FY2026 appropriations bill.

It requires 7 Republicans on the Rules Committee to force a floor vote.

These are the Republican members on the House Rules Committee who hold the power right now:

Chairwoman Virginia Foxx (R-NC)
Michelle Fischbach (R-MN)
Ralph Norman (R-SC)
Chip Roy (R-TX)
Erin Houchin (R-IN)
Nicholas A. Langworthy (R-NY)
Austin Scott (R-GA)
H. Morgan Griffith (R-VA)
Brian Jack (R-GA)

Per my Mike Benz notes, NED should now be controlled by the Trump State Dept? Correct?

1. USAID – funding arm

2. State Department – sets policy

3. NED – technical implementation of work. CIA birthed. Subsidize groups without having CIA fingerprints on the work.- Founder admitted it was done to keep CIA from getting into trouble doing things they are not supposed to do. Accountable to foreign relations committee.

IRI – GOP arm for CIA to make sure their projects receive funding.
NDI – Dem arm for CIA to make sure their projects receive funding.

January 13, 2026 – Law enforcement is misclassifying race and distorting crime statistics; it’s demographic manipulation and narrative laundering

This is not a clerical error. This is narrative laundering.

The arrest records shown do something very specific. They classify a foreign national as a White male with blond or strawberry hair while omitting immigration status entirely. That is not descriptive accuracy. That is demographic manipulation. When law enforcement records misclassify race and suppress immigration status, the downstream effect is predictable. Crime statistics are distorted. Public understanding is corrupted. Accountability disappears.

Police departments know exactly why this is done. Federal crime data is aggregated by race. When offenders who are foreign nationals are reclassified into domestic racial categories, the real source patterns are buried. The public is then fed a sanitized dataset that supports preselected talking points. This is not about one case. It is about how the books are cooked so trends can never be honestly discussed.

News outlets compound the deception. They repeat the arrest sheet verbatim, never asking why immigration status is missing, never questioning implausible physical descriptors, never pressing the department for clarification. The omission is the story, and they deliberately ignore it. That is not journalism. That is information control.

If the individual were a citizen, the records would say so. If the individual were legally present, that status would be highlighted immediately. Silence only appears when the truth is politically inconvenient. That silence protects institutions, not victims. Two teenagers are dead, and the system’s first instinct was not transparency, but insulation.

This is exactly why public trust is collapsing. People are not stupid. They can see when reality does not match the paperwork. When law enforcement manipulates categories and media outlets run interference, the public correctly concludes that the truth is being managed rather than reported.

The question is simple. If the data were honest, why hide it.
If the classification were accurate, why does it defy common sense.
If transparency mattered, why was immigration status erased.

This is not incompetence. It is intent.

January 13, 2026 – Watch how calmly the media talked about ICE raids and family separation under Obama

In 2016, before Trump was president, Obama was using ICE to deport some illegal immigrants and families were separated. Yet the media didn’t act like it was the end of the world.

There were no protests. No one was being accused of being a Nazi or a fascist. The left didn’t care at all and neither did the media.

In the clip below, one journalist calmly asks about it and Obama’s press secretary Josh Earnest is able to answer without interruption.

Even the reporting from the Washington Post was more measured:

Asked about the removal operations, White House press secretary Josh Earnest said that the administration has “prioritized the cases of recent arrivals, individuals who recently crossed the border without proper documentation. That is the nature of the operations carried out in the last several days.”

Earnest said the efforts are “consistent with the priorities the president himself talked about, deporting felons not families, with a focus on individuals who only recently crossed the border.”

He added that those targeted for removal have gone through due process legal proceedings and said the effort will help discourage Central American families that sending their children on a dangerous journey to try to enter the United States illegally.

“People should take from this the understanding that the administration is quite serious when it comes to enforcing immigration laws.”

Because of the sensitivity of taking children into custody and deporting them and their families, authorities took precautions during the raids, Johnson’s statement said, using female agents when possible to apprehend families and having medical personnel on hand.

Watch this video:

On the same note, here’s Obama himself in 2013 talking about deporting people.

From Townhall:

“As time goes on, a thousand deportations on average a day. People are wondering…won’t you at least consider unilaterally freezing deportations for the parents of deferred action kids?” reporter Jose Diaz-Balart asked.

“Here’s the problem that I have, Jose, and I’ve said this consistently,” Obama replied, “my job in the Executive Branch is supposed to be to carry out the laws that are passed. Congress has said, ‘Here’s the law when it comes to those who are undocumented,’ and they allocate a whole bunch of money for enforcement.”

January 13, 2026 – US Secret Service agent assigned to VP Vance leaks sensitive information to undercover reporter

Escotto is a holdover from the Biden administration and stated that he voted for Joe Biden, while expressing opposition to ICE & the Trump administration’s immigration policies. “I hate that [ICE] sh*t.”

Tomas Escotto, a current U.S. Secret Service agent on Vice President JD Vance’s protective detail, was recorded on hidden camera providing an undercover journalist with sensitive security information, including protective formations, shift schedules, travel plans, & real-time locations.

The Secret Service agent detailed how the Vice President is physically surrounded, described multiple daily shift changes, & disclosed advance security procedures.

In addition to past movements, the agent revealed future travel plans, sometimes days in advance. Escotto even sent images from Air Force Two while onboard with the Vice President.

Despite acknowledging that he signed paperwork prohibiting the disclosure of sensitive information, the Secret Service agent repeatedly shared details with someone he believed was a casual romantic interest.

While the safety of the Vice President and his family was always our top priority, what OMG uncovered raises serious questions about operational security, protocol compliance, and oversight within the U.S. Secret Service.

Our team coordinated with the U.S. Secret Service ahead of publication, redacted sensitive operational details at their request.

We were just informed Tomas Escotto has been placed on administrative leave with his clearance suspended and access to agency facilities and systems revoked.

This is the memo USSS sent out.

That dig they gave at us is below the belt and unfounded.

Imagine if we were working for a foreign Govt?

We exposed the secret service is vulnerable to espionage.

If the agent can’t figure out to a citizen journalist is playing them, how can they figure out if a foreign govt is playing him?

This is a such a colossal error. Far beyond the magnitude of anything he actually said – is the circumstances he didn’t figure out he was being played by a citizen journalist.

As an agent he’s been exposed to every spy agency in the world

That’s why they’re doing espionage training in their statement.

That’s why they failed as an agency

January 14, 2026 – Nigerian honored by Gretchen Whitmer exposed as massive daycare fraudster

(…) A former professor, Nigerian immigrant Nkechy Ezeh, pleaded guilty last month to wire fraud and tax evasion in a scheme that defrauded Michigan taxpayers out of over $1 million, according to news site MLive.

The misappropriated money had been intended for Early Learning Neighborhood Collaborative, an early childhood education program for disadvantaged children. Ezeh was the founder and CEO of ELNC.

“The nonprofit closed in 2023 after Ezeh and former Director of Finance and Administration Sharon Killebrew were accused of embezzling more than $2.5 million combined over several years,” WZZM-TV reported.

Killebrew, 70, was sentenced to four years and six months in prison after pleading guilty to tax evasion and conspiracy to defraud a federally funded program, according to MLive.

Ezeh faces 20 years for wire fraud. The charge of tax evasion could carry an additional five years in prison.

Nigerian news outlet Business Day reported Ezeh, a former professor at Aquinas College, did not shy away from the public eye, as Whitmer once put her on a state executive committee. She also won several “Woman of the Year” awards.

“Ezeh created nearly $500,000 in fraudulent invoices and established two fictitious daycare businesses to mask the movement of stolen funds,” Business Day reported. “The embezzled money reportedly financed a lavish lifestyle, including international travel to Hawaii, Liberia, and Nigeria.”

This is a woman who, in a 2022 interview with Voyage Michigan, once had the audacity to decry “structural racism” as a problem immigrants had to overcome.

January 14, 2026 – Minnesota House files 4 Articles of Impeachment against Gov. Tim Walz

Tim Walz (Credit: Gage Skidmore)

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is facing formal impeachment proceedings after Republican lawmakers introduced four articles accusing him of corrupt conduct in office, centered on his alleged role in overseeing, enabling, or failing to act on extensive fraud in state-run programs.

According to the resolution, under Article I, Walz is charged with knowingly permitting the concealment of “widespread fraud within Minnesota state administered programs,” despite “repeated warnings, audits, reports, and public indicators of systematic abuse.” It states that the governor was made aware of this fraud through “briefings, audits, agency reports, or public findings,” yet failed to act effectively. The article claims he “allowed fraudulent activity to continue after credible warnings were raised” and “created or tolerated an environment where disclosure of fraud was delayed, minimized, or obscured from legislators and the public.”

Article II alleges that Governor Walz violated his constitutional oath through actions and omissions that interfered with lawful oversight, investigations, or corrective measures related to fraud in state agencies. The article charges that he failed to promptly direct executive agencies to cooperate with audits, permitted or tolerated resistance to legislative oversight and public transparency, failed to discipline or track officials responsible for fraudulent programs, and delayed reforms while financial losses mounted.

Article III charges Walz with placing “political consideration above lawful administration,” stating that he prioritized the preservation of political narratives over disclosing known program failures, failed to act to protect taxpayer funds once fraud became apparent, and allowed executive agencies to continue operations without proper safeguards after fraud risks were identified. The resolution further states that he undermined public confidence in state government by failing to ensure transparency and accountability.

Article IV accuses the governor of failing to uphold laws related to public fund stewardship. It charges him with allowing statutory safeguards to be ignored, failing to enforce anti-fraud measures, and permitting violations of the law despite being aware of wrongdoing.

As outlined in the resolution, the Minnesota Constitution grants the House the authority to impeach and the Senate the power to try impeachments. Under Article VIII, Section 3, Walz is barred from executing the duties of governor upon the House’s adoption of the resolution and may resume those duties only if acquitted by the Senate.

January 14, 2026 – Jonathan Turley: Democrats fight to keep the insurrection myth alive in the new J6 Committee

Rep. Harriet Hageman (Credit: video clipping)

The new J6 Committee has started its hearings and, unlike the prior Committee, Republicans have allowed Democrats to select members to sit in opposition. That has led to sharp exchanges, but one of the more interesting occurred between Rep. Harriet Hageman (R., Wyo.) and Jamie Raskin (D., Md.). After Hageman got a witness to admit that no one was charged with incitement, Raskin made the clearly false statement that a few defendants charged with seditious conspiracy was the same thing as incitement. It is not.

Rep. Raskin triggered the confrontation by making a clearly false claim about one of those charged by the Biden Administration: “I would just commend to everybody the testimony of Pamela Hemphill, who was a convicted insurrectionist that was pardoned. She rejected her pardon.”

In reality, Hemphill was charged (like most of the rioters) with relatively minor misdemeanors. She pleaded guilty to one count of demonstrating, picketing, or parading in a Capitol building and received just 60 days in prison, 36 months of probation, and a $500 fine for restitution. She was never charged with insurrection or any felony.

Rep. Hageman pounced on the comment and asked former Justice Department prosecutor Michael Romano whether any January 6 protester had actually been convicted under the federal insurrection statute.

Romano tried to dodge the question but admitted that no one, not Trump nor any rioter, was ever charged with insurrection. Notably, after January 6th, there was a great amount of coverage on Trump and his aides being possibly charged with insurrection or incitement. Despite some of us noting that the speech was clearly protected under the First Amendment, the press portrayed such a charge as credible and heaped coverage on District of Columbia Attorney General Karl Racine, who announced that he was considering arresting Trump, Donald Trump Jr., Rudy Giuliani, and U.S. Rep. Mo Brooks and charging them with incitement. It never happened. The reason is obvious. It could not be legally maintained.

While the FBI launched a massive national investigation, it did not find evidence of an insurrection. While a few were charged with seditious conspiracy, no one was charged with insurrection.

The Supreme Court later reduced charges further by rejecting obstruction charges in some cases.

Yet that did not stop members and the media from repeating the false mantra that this was an insurrection, despite some of us immediately rejecting it as legally unsustainable. Indeed, Democrats used the false claim to seek to disqualify Trump and dozens of Republicans from ballots.

Now back to the hearing.

Hageman asked the witness, “Mr. Romano, did you prosecute anyone related to January 6th for engaging in an insurrection?” she asked. Romano responded, “No, congresswoman.”

That is when Raskin objected and tried to interrupt the confirmation that, in fact, there never was an insurrection or any such charges.

Hageman persisted, “So, Mr. Raskin’s statement that someone was a ‘convicted insurrectionist’ is actually inaccurate, isn’t that correct?” When Romano again tried to pivot, she pressed further, “She wasn’t a convicted insurrectionist, was she?”

“For the crime of insurrection, no,” he admitted.

Raskin shouted, “Do you accept seditious conspiracy as insurrection?”

It was a telling statement. For the record, I have long been a critic of sedition crimes. As I discuss in my book “The Indispensable Right: Free Speech in an Age of Rage,”sedition was a noxious import from Great Britain. British judges had balked at the effort to accuse citizens of treason for things like telling bawdy jokes about the queen in some pub.

However, putting that aside, the handful of charges for seditious conspiracy are not legally the same or even close to an insurrection charge. Rep. Raskin, a former law professor, must know that.

The provision in 18 U.S.C. 2384 has long been controversial because it is so sweeping and includes any effort “by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law.” While the provision can also entail an intent to overthrow the country, the provision covers any interference with federal proceedings or laws.

Ironically, Raskin opposes the invocation of the Insurrection Act in cities like Minneapolis on the basis of the interference with federal officials in the enforcement of federal law. However, he seems to view this provision as endlessly malleable, so that anyone accused of hindering the execution of a federal law is an insurrectionist.

After January 6th, Justice Department official Michael Sherwin publicly declared that “our office wanted to ensure that there was shock and awe” in hitting people with a maximal level of charges. Yet, despite that “shock and awe” effort, not a single charge for insurrection was ever brought — an inconvenient truth for members like Raskin. (Read more: Jonathan Turley, 1/16/2026)  (Archive)

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was set to appear for a closed-door deposition on Wednesday.

Bill Clinton was a no-show on Tuesday.

Hillary also snubbed the subpoena.

The Clintons claimed they already provided the Committee with all of the information they have on Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

Clinton’s lawyers told Politico that the House Oversight subpoenas are not enforceable because they are “not related to a valid legislative purpose,” and are therefore “invalid and legally unenforceable.”

“After five months of good-faith negotiations, President Clinton has refused to comply,” Comer said on Tuesday.

“We are now initiating contempt of Congress proceedings,” Comer added.

January 15, 2026 – A Navy Intelligence Officer reports he tracked Minnesota daycare money to foreign terror groups in 2016

MINNEAPOLIS (NewsNation) — A former Navy intelligence officer assigned to track terrorist financing says he documented hundreds of millions of dollars flowing from Minnesota day care fraud schemes directly to al-Shabab terror networks in Somalia as early as 2016 — nearly a decade before federal authorities began widespread prosecutions.

Navy Lieutenant Phillip Parrish, joined the Joint Terrorism Task Force in 2016. (Credit: video clipping)

Phillip Parrish, a lieutenant in the Navy who joined the Joint Terrorism Task Force in 2016, said he tracked money couriers from Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport to the Netherlands, then to Nairobi, Kenya, and finally into Mogadishu money exchanges called “hawalas” — the same exchanges the Treasury Department designated in 2012 as fronts for the al-Qaida-linked terror group al-Shabab.

“In 2016, we were already tracking that was adding up to hundreds of millions of dollars, and that was just what we were tracking,” Parrish told NewsNation. “Then, by now, fast forward nearly 10 years later, yeah, when they’re talking about $9 billion, that’s a real figure, and that’s probably conservative.”

Parrish’s account raises questions about why Minnesota officials did not act on early warnings about fraud schemes that allegedly fleeced taxpayers of billions through fake day care centers and other programs.

Parrish said his investigation began when he noticed an unusual pattern of cash leaving Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.

Money traced to Somalia hawalas Treasury labeled terror fronts in 2012

“There’s an interesting pattern here happening, where the money’s coming out of Minneapolis International Airport. Well, where’s it coming from?” Parrish said. “How are they getting it in Minneapolis? Where is it coming from? Well, that led to some research about a list of fake companies. Well, it’s all cash that’s coming out of these fake day cares or day cares with inflated numbers.”

When asked how much money was involved, Parrish described the scale as massive.

“Hundreds of millions. You’re talking suitcases of evidence, reports of suspicious activity, reports from banking, TSA, reports from the airport, and then the military side of the house, tracking who it got to,” he said.

“You’re talking about tens of thousands, $300,000, $500,000, all these different varying amounts, daily. The open source material will tell you every other week out of Terminal 2, but it was daily out of Terminal 2, it was daily.”

“Direct portions of it were ending up in the hands of terrorists, absolutely, all the way from pirate boats being bought to essentially the administration of a terrorist network, administratively,” he said.

Parrish said his reports were used by military operations abroad but largely ignored by the public and state officials.

Officer: ‘No doubt’ money funded terrorists, pirate boats, terror networks

“Hundreds of men and women like me know the truth. It’s been the truth all along,” Parrish said. “We don’t know why we’ve been ignored, other than thieving and grifting, a culture of thieving and grifting that was intentional, no matter how it started.”

Parrish suggested the fraud schemes were part of a broader system dependent on continued immigration to sustain fraudulent programs.

January 14, 2026 – Navy Veteran turned federal government contractor accused of stealing classified national defense information and leaking to WaPo

LAUREL, Md. — A U.S. Navy Veteran turned federal government contractor is accused of stealing secret classified national defense information.

Aurelio Luis Perez-Lugones was granted top security clearance as a systems engineer and information technology specialist for a federal government contractor based out of Annapolis Junction located near the border of Anne Arundel and Howard Counties.

The FBI alleges in charging documents that on at least four occasions between October 28, 2025 and January 7, 2026, Perez-Lugones accessed and viewed classified intelligence reports related to a foreign country without any prior authorization.

Agents say they have evidence proving Perez-Lugones printed out and took screenshots of secret documents, before taking them to his home in Laurel, Maryland.

In doing so, Perez-Lugones allegedly removed classified markings from one of the secret documents.

On January 8, the feds searched his car and home.

Inside the car, investigators discovered a lunchbox containing the secret document from which he removed the classified markings.

Meanwhile, inside the house another document marked secret was located.

Lugones served in the U.S. Navy from 1982 to 2002. Since then he’s worked as a government contractor in various capacities.

His criminal case is currently pending before the U.S. District Court of Maryland.

January 16, 2026 – Michael Cohen says he was ‘coerced’ and ‘pressured’ by Bragg, James to testify against Trump

Michael Cohen (Credit: public domain)

After years of criticizing Donald Trump, the president’s former lawyer, Michael Cohen, is admitting that he was “pressured” and “coerced” by Alvin Bragg and Letitia James to testify against Donald Trump.

In an astonishing Substack post published Friday evening, Cohen writes that he “felt pressured and coerced to only provide information and testimony that would satisfy the government’s desire to build the cases against and secure a judgment and convictions against President Trump.” He said the feeling began from his very first meetings with the lawyers working with Bragg and James, New York’s attorney general.

Specifically regarding James, he said he felt “compelled and coerced to deliver what they were seeking.”

“Letitia James made it publicly known during her 2018 campaign for attorney general that, if elected, she would go after President Trump,” Cohen writes in the post. “Her office made clear that the testimony they wanted from me was testimony that would help them do just that. Again, I felt compelled and coerced to deliver what they were seeking.”

In a Friday night phone conversation, Donald Trump told The Daily Wire that this was further proof that it was a “very corrupt investigation” that Cohen testified in. Trump has long held that Cohen is a liar, and was only cooperating to get his prison sentence reduced. (Read more: The Daily Wire, 1/16/2026)  (Archive)

January 17, 2026 – ‘Manchurian Generation’ ballot flood: More than 1 million Chinese with U.S. Citizenship could vote in 2030 elections

More than one million Chinese with U.S. citizenship who grew up in communist China will soon start voting in American elections, #1 New York Times bestselling investigative journalist and Breitbart News Senior Contributor Peter Schweizer reveals in his new book, The Invisible Coup: How American Elites and Foreign Powers Use Immigration as a Weapon.

In his explosive new book, Schweizer details how Chinese elites have exploited America’s birthright citizenship policies by engaging in a practice known as birth tourism, whereby Chinese mothers intentionally travel to the United States give birth on American soil so that their newborn children will automatically be granted U.S. citizenship.

One of birth tourism’s biggest appeals is the chain migration that it triggers. “When such children turn twenty-one, they can also apply for resident status for both of their parents,” Schweizer explains. To demonstrate the extent of the practice, he uses the U.S. territory of Saipan in the Pacific as an example, writing that “[m]ore than 70 percent of the newborns in Saipan are PRC birth tourist parents who utilize the territory’s forty-five-day visa-free visitation rules and the ‘Covenant of the Northern Mariana Islands’ to guarantee that their children will have American citizenship.”

Because the U.S. federal government does not directly track birth tourism, no one knows the true extent of the practice, Schweizer writes:

Chinese officials estimate that the number is a staggering fifty thousand of their own citizens per year. Scholars who have studied the subject in depth, like Australian-based professor Salvator Babones, put the figure even higher, perhaps twice that. “With up to 100,000 Chinese babies being born US citizens every year,” he writes, “birth tourism may result in millions of new elite Chinese-Americans.”

Some researchers place the number higher still. Media Research, a Chinese data analysis company, says that in 2018 alone 150,000 people came from China to the United States to practice birth tourism.

According to Schweizer, the practice of Chinese birth tourism in the United States has flourished in the past 15 years, with “at least 750,000 and possibly as many as 1.5 million Chinese, who are also American citizens by virtue of being born here, now growing toward adulthood in China.” (Read more: Breitbart, 1/17/2026) (Archive)

January 17, 2026 – Highlights of Democrat leaders supporting border control and deportation of illegal aliens, before they didn’t

Obama frequently emphasized the need for stronger border security, employer accountability for hiring undocumented workers, and comprehensive immigration reform that included controlling illegal crossings. Here are key video examples:

In his 2014 address to the nation on fixing the broken immigration system, Obama stated that he began by securing borders and committed to better enforcement, noting illegal crossings had been cut.

During a 2005 news conference clip, Obama advocated for holding employers accountable for hiring undocumented workers and supported strong borders, aligning with similar arguments later made by Trump.

In a 2014 speech at Del Sol High School, Obama reiterated his belief in secure borders and efforts to reduce illegal crossings over his term.

Speaking on comprehensive immigration reform in 2010, Obama called for fixing the broken system, starting with border security to prevent uncontrolled inflows.

Additional examples from X posts include archived clips:

Obama warning that undocumented immigrants harm the economy, take jobs, and that employers should face penalties, while calling for stronger border security as a top priority.  Video in post: 

A 2007 clip of then-Senator Obama supporting border control policies similar to current Republican stances.

Obama in 2010 stating the U.S. cannot allow “half a million people pouring over the border without any kind of mechanism to control it.”

Other Democratic Officials Supporting Border Control

Many Democratic leaders, including Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Chuck Schumer, and others, have historically supported tougher border measures, deportations, and barriers—positions they’ve since shifted away from. Here are video compilations and examples highlighting this:

POLITICAL VIOLENCE: Anti-ICE activists blocked aisles and confronted Christians during Sunday service in St. Paul. Don Lemon was embedded with the agitators, cheering the disruption from inside the sanctuary.

Islamic-aligned and ICE Watch activists disrupted Sunday worship at Christ Church in St. Paul by blocking aisles and confronting congregants about ICE operations. The intrusion targeted Christians inside their sanctuary in a community increasingly dominated by activist enforcement politics. Disgraced former CNN reporter Don Lemon was embedded with the activists, providing coverage and amplifying the disruption rather than condemning it.

BREAKING: Social justice activist Nekima Levy Armstrong, in a Facebook post, accused the pastor of Cities Church of being an Acting Field Director for the ICE office and expressed gratitude to the activists who joined her in storming the church this morning. She wrote:

“Thank you to all the activists who showed up, as well as independent journalists Georgia Fort, Don Lemon, DawokeFarmer2, and Brixton Hughes. Special thanks to Monique Cullars Doty, Chauntyll Allen, and Satara Strong-Allen for co-organizing this mission with Black Lives Matter Minnesota, Black Lives Matter Twin Cities Metro, and the Racial Justice Network.”

A brazen invasion of Christian worship

January 19, 2026 – Harmeet Dhillon: DOJ to charge Don Lemon under the ‘KKK Act’ for inciting church raid (VIDEO)

Harmeet Dhillon, the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights at the Department of Justice, has announced that they plan to charge disgraced former CNN anchor Don Lemon under the Ku Klux Klan Act, a Reconstruction-era law enacted to combat terrorist activities by groups like the KKK.

The impending charges stem from Lemon’s involvement when a group of anti-ICE activists stormed a church in Minneapolis, disrupting a religious service and intimidating worshippers, on Sunday.

The Ku Klux Klan Act, formally known as the Enforcement Act of 1871, prohibits conspiracies to threaten, injure, or intimidate individuals to prevent them from exercising their constitutional rights, including the free exercise of religion.

According to reports, Lemon not only accompanied the protesters but had prior knowledge of their plans to target the church, which was hosting a service at the time.

Some have even alleged that he was the one who incited the protesters to target the church.

Before the incident, Lemon is seen in his team’s own footage discussing the “secret operation” with activists, confirming they had the church’s address, and even instructing his staff not to reveal the location.

January 19, 2026 – Schweizer: Radical left, islamists working together in ‘marriage of convenience’ to destroy United States

On Monday’s “Alex Marlow Show,” Breitbart News senior contributor and author of The Invisible Coup: How American Elites and Foreign Powers Use Immigration as a Weapon Peter Schweizer talked about Islamism and the left.

[P]eople that are in favor of trans rights and gay rights have aligned themselves with a radical movement that hates and wants to kill people that are engaged in that kind of behavior. And what they’ve basically decided is we’re going to work together to destroy the United States. We’ll split up the spoils later on. Although, I do quote in the book, Islamists as saying, look, this is just a marriage of convenience, once we win, we’re going to get rid of those guys, too.

January 20, 2026 – Richard Bigo Barnett: “I, along with many of my J6 brothers and sisters, was released from federal prison 1 year ago today”

I, along with many of my J6 brothers and sisters, was released from federal prison 1 year ago today. One month later I journeyed back to DC, back to our Capital hoping to find amongst other things a little peace within myself. January 6, 2021 was just one day. It took courage to show up, it took courage to stand. But to my once imprisoned J6 brothers and sisters I want to say the last 5 years was our real journey in courage as we took everything they threw at us for our love of country and survived. Wounded, struggling, healing? Of course. But still standing. Still in the fight. Still brave. Be proud. Love ya’ll. Bigo

January 20, 2026 – The only bill Keith Ellison sponsored and was signed into law was the Money Remittances Improvement Act of 2014

What has been ignored and overlooked in the Somalian Minnesota fraud cases is the root and origin of the crimes that led to what we are seeing today.

It all began during the first Obama presidency, when a much larger fraud and corruption scandal emerged involving USAID and the State Department. Billions of dollars were knowingly poured into a lost cause, driven by domestic political considerations rather than measurable outcomes.

This essentially defrauded every taxpayer in America—not just in Minnesota, but on a national scale.

What benefit did Americans receive from dumping billions of dollars into Somalia and enriching the country for two decades?

***

Former congressman Keith Ellison explains in his own words why Somalians are important in battleground states such as Ohio, Minnesota and Virginia in 2012

He explains thousands of Somalians were recently naturalized and would be crucial in gaining votes for Obama and other democrats

Attorney General Keith Ellison, for the past 16 years, has been the key to Somalian political “success” and integration into the Democrat political system.

This began with the election of the first Somalian elected to public office in the United States—Hussein Samatar to the Minneapolis School Board, District 3, in 2010, followed by Ellison putting his political machine behind Ilhan Omar’s campaign for the Minnesota state house and then vacating his congressional seat for state representative Ilhan Omar. It was Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison fingerprints on all these events

Understanding his historical connections with Somalians explains how fraud in Minnesota got out of hand and the inexplicable political rise of Somalians far less puzzling—and far more troubling

January 20, 2026 – Republicans caught Smurfing through WinRed

US Senator Susan Collins and her Treasurer Elizabeth T. McCandless caught Smurfing $4,428,495.00 into her campaign committee. This is criminal money laundering.

One of their victims is Antony Taquey of North Carolina. We are supposed to believe Taquey made 38,967 contributions totaling $608,342.

Of these, 253 went to Susan Collins, totaling $5,395. But hold on, the truth is Taquey did not make these contributions. He is 72 years old and is having his identity stolen by Collings and her Treasurer McCandless. That’s also elderly financial abuse.

Look at the chart of Taquey, on June 24, 2021 we are supposed to believe he made 468 contributions totaling $17,197. Each contribution is time/date stamped and assigned its own unique transaction code by the FEC.

Surprise: Taquey did not make 468 political contributions in one day. Nor the other ones shown in the chart – perhaps he made a handful and I’m talking a few dozen, maybe over the years a hundred but not 38,967 contributions.

And that number is low as we know the @FEC is hiding data, because we caught them. THAT is a felony crime.

Political Committee C00314575, COLLINS FOR SENATOR of Maine has accepted 55,884 Smurfed donor transactions totaling $4,428,495 from 5,576 unique Smurfing donors. That these transactions

US Senator Lisa Murkowski and her Treasurer Meghan Munoz caught Smurfing $819,454 into her campaign committee. Smurfing is structured money laundering.

86 year old Lesley Stewart of Texas is a Smurf, meaning she is a victim of Murkowski and Munoz. They stole Stewart’s identity, i.e. her name, address, account at whatever platform – most likely @WinRed. It is also elderly financial abuse.

Side note: WinRed is a criminal organization – stay away from them, as is @Actblue. Many Republicans hate WinRed in particular due to the relentless harassing texts, phone calls.

Stewart’s contributions (not really hers) are shown in the chart below. On one particular day, April 15 2022 she made (she really didn’t) 3,728 contributions totaling $64,317. Yep, just normal human behavior – not. Its computer bots doing it as discovered by Chris Gleason @immutablechrist and Phil Allison @TheTVConsPiracy

The numbers are accurate, not a dump or error. Search or scroll down in my tweets for reports on more US Senators, a few Congressmen.

Stewart shows contributing $410,539 via 19,910 contributions. Of those 63 contributions for $125 went to Murkowski. See how Smurfing works?

Political Committee C00384529, LISA MURKOWSKI FOR US SENATE of Alaska has accepted 1,582 Smurfed donor transactions totaling $819,454 from 428 unique Smurfing donors. That these transactions encompass 14.3% of the 11,066 available committee transactions and also being 8.4% of the $9,714,949 full committee transaction valuation.

Complaint sent in against @SenMcConnell to the FEC for Smurfing $15,840,454 into his campaigns. Double bonus surprise ending!!!!

Smurfing is criminal money laundering, it also involves McConnell stealing the identities of senior citizens. They are called Smurfs (victims).

Look at one of McConnell’s victims, a Ms. Taft out of Michigan. See image below next to crooked McConnell. Per the FEC she made close to 30,000 political donations (nope, she did not really make all those).

One day in particular, she made 468 donations totaling $17,197.00. Just normal human behavior….to make 468 political campaign donations in one day, then hundreds the next, and next, and next, and next (again nope, she didn’t really make all these).

Political Committee C00193342, MCCONNELL SENATE COMMITTEE has accepted 308,411 Smurfed donor transactions totaling $15,840,454 from 20,726 unique Smurfing donors. That these transactions encompass 68.7% of the 449,013 available committee transactions and also being 34.7% of the $45,664,610 full committee transaction valuation.

1st surprise: Mitch McConnell’s campaign committee Treasurer, Lisa Lisker, is also @SpeakerJohnson’s campaign committee Treasurer. Lisker is named in both FEC complaints I filed against the committees of McConnell and Johnson.

I’m referring her, @MikeJohnson and McConnell for criminal prosecution. Some of the Smurfing money is coming from the US Treasury.

2nd surprise: @WinRed is named in the complaints also. They are big time Smurfing into RINO campaigns. Stealing elderly citizens’ identities also.

Complaint filed to @FEC on US Congressman Mike Johnson and his Treasurers, William Vanderbrook and Lisa Lisker, who have been caught Smurfing $5,808,595 into Johnson’s campaign committees.

Are you getting what is happening: money comes from the US Treasury, goes to let’s say a daycare center….then some of that ends up in politicians’ campaigns.

Or an NGO (there are about 1.5 million of them), or a federal grant, or a federal contract, or SNAP benefits, or medicaid payouts, or federal block grants to states, or money to Ukraine, or other foreign aid – are you finally picking up on what is really happening?

Smurfing is criminal money laundering into political campaigns. Both Republicans and Democrats are robbing us blind. This is exactly why you’re not seeing action, instead you’re seeing blocking.

See my tweets below for actions taken against US Senators @johnthune of South Dakota, @SenAmyKlobuchar of Minnesota, @SenatorWarnock of Georgia, @SenMarkKelly of Arizona, @SenatorSlotkin of Michigan and @SenBaldwinGSPP of Wisconsin, @LindseyGrahamSC of South Carolina.

I, @immutablechrist @TheTVConsPiracy and others have been tweeting it out for years. A cut of the US Treasury monies (your money) works it way into political campaigns – one way they do it is Smurfing. Which is structured money laundering, they are using computer bots to do it. Stealing the identities of senior citizens.

You can read more about it at our website http://electionwatch.info scroll down and you’ll find 4 articles about it. Smurfing is happening at the federal, state, county and even school board levels.

Under 52 U.S.C. §§ 30102(a) and 30104(a), the treasurer is the legally responsible officer for authorizing, receiving, recording, and reporting committee contributions, and is therefore properly named where violations involving false contributor identification or contributions in the name of another under 52 U.S.C. § 30122 are alleged.

Political Committee C00771246, JOHNSON LEADERSHIP FUND has accepted 2,772 Smurfed donor transactions totaling $2,214,635 from 682 unique Smurfing donors. That these transactions encompass 27% of the 10,258 available committee transactions and also being 15.1% of the $14,640,757full committee transaction valuation.

Political Committee C00608695, MIKE JOHNSON FOR LOUISIANA has accepted 206,429 Smurfed donor transactions totaling $3,593,960 from 6,186 unique Smurfing donors. That these transactions encompass 87.8% of the 235,162 available committee transactions and also being 36.1% of the $9,963,678 full committee transaction valuation.

The $5.8 million is just the tip of the iceberg for Mike Johnson, he’s in deep with PACs where the real number I believe, at this point in time, is over $25 million. @FBIDirectorKash @FBI

A federal lawsuit was sent in yesterday pertaining to US Senator @LindseyGrahamSC
and his Treasurer Terry E. Sullivan. For Smurfing $11,090,385 into his campaign committee.

Smurfing is criminally laundering money into a political campaign.

See my tweets below for actions taken against US Senators @johnthune of South Dakota, @SenAmyKlobuchar of Minnesota, @SenatorWarnock of Georgia, @SenMarkKelly of Arizona, @SenatorSlotkin of Michigan and @SenBaldwinGSPP of Wisconsin.

Their campaigns will have to pay back the monies, if the campaigns are empty, federal statute says then the candidate personally has to pay it back.

Then there is the fully open and ongoing federal criminal investigation into Smurfing. 😎

Political Committee C00458828, TEAM GRAHAM INC has accepted 156,039 Smurfed donor transactions totaling $11,090,385 from 18,040 unique Smurfing donors. That these transactions encompass 39.2% of the 397,972 available committee transactions and also being 17.2% of the $64,507,528 full committee transaction valuation.

January 20, 2026 – Biden’s FBI paid anti-Trump, foreign-influenced ‘Sedition Hunters’ as informants in J6, Arctic Frost probes

The Biden-era FBI made more than $100,000 in payments to informants who were members of an anonymous group of tech sleuths known as the “Sedition Hunters” to gather and analyze video evidence in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and Arctic Frost probes despite the group’s significant anti-Trump fervor and known ties to foreigners, according to memos reviewed by Just the News.

The payments are due to be disclosed by FBI Director Kash Patel to Congress along with acknowledged concerns that the Christopher Wray-run bureau’s approval of certain members of the Sedition Hunters as confidential human sources may have violated bureau policies in the Domestic Investigation and Operations Guide (DIOG) concerning informant bias, informant secrecy, foreign influence, and contracting transparency, officials said.

Government officials said group members were first engaged in January 2021, just days after the Capitol riot, to assist making arrests in the January 6 case by identifying potential defendants using facial recognition software. The group members received at least $150,000 in payments for that work and other work related to the Arctic Frost probe into whether Trump supporters violated the law by promoting alternate electors to be considered for the certification of the 2020 election.

Biden-era FBI knew paid foreigners were using spyware to identify J6 arrestees

One of the earliest emails from the FBI’s Washington field office that oversaw that work showed the FBI was clearly aware the group had foreign connections and may actually be using software from overseas to identify American citizens for arrest, according to a copy of the email reviewed by Just the News.

The late January 2021 email from the FBI’s Washington field office stated that “we have a sedition hunter from the United Kingdom running facial recognition software” with the tipster telling the bureau that this UK-based so-called sedition hunter “just found this possible match” to an alleged January 6 suspect a few minutes prior, sharing the picture with the FBI.

FBI Director Kash Patel told Just the News on Tuesday night he is concerned that the paid informant relationship with Sedition Hunters members was inappropriate, and he was committed to working with Congress to develop rules to avoid such entanglements in the future.

“The American people deserve the truth about how the FBI was weaponized against them. Paying openly anti-Trump activists to identify Americans using questionable technology is a stunning abuse of bureau authorities and a clear violation of longstanding informant rules,” Patel said in a statement to Just the News.

January 20, 2026 – Townhall obtains footage that suggests judges can be bribed in Ohio’s immigration courts

Woman in Ohio Undercover Video Brags About $50K Bribes to Ohio Judges to Fast-Track Asylum for Migrants

– At the center of the operation is Patricia Golder, who, according to the footage, has turned the alleged manipulation of the asylum process into her business.

– The undercover reporter is introduced to Golder by one of Golder’s friends, identified as Cindy Reis, who says Golder helps Mauritanian migrants get their papers.

– Golder explains her business model, taking a cut of migrants’ earnings: “I take one-third of what they make.” If they get $10,000, 1/3 is mine.”!Concerning as it suggests exploitation or a form of indentured labor tied to immigration help.

– Coaching on fabricating asylum claims: “You have to make the story… to meet the legal threshold.” Golder discusses tailoring narratives (e.g., persecution claims) to increase approval chances, which could involve fraud.

– she says she has access to judges, she goes out where they hang out and drink Golder brags about direct access to immigration judges who are willing to bend rules without fear

– Explicit bribery of Judges: “Okay, $50,000 I send everybody to you… 50,000 going split between people.” Golder describes approaching a judge, offering $50k (split among parties) to route cases for guaranteed approvals.

– they Discusses fast-tracking work permits, Social Security cards, and driver’s licenses after payoffs, implying rigged timelines.

These segments are the most alarming, as they directly allege felony-level activities like bribery (18 U.S.C. § 201), immigration fraud, and exploitation.

January 20, 2026 – Comer moves forward with contempt vote as Clintons make new demands after snubbing congressional subpoena

Hillary was a no-show for her deposition on January 13, 2026 (Credit: @GOPoversight)

House Judiciary Chairman James Comer on Tuesday revealed that the Clintons made new, outrageous demands after snubbing congressional subpoenas.

(…) Clinton’s lawyers told Politico that the House Oversight subpoenas are not enforceable because they are “not related to a valid legislative purpose,” and are therefore “invalid and legally unenforceable.”

Comer said contempt proceedings will begin on Wednesday.

“Facing contempt of Congress, the Clintons’ lawyers made an untenable offer: that I travel to New York for a conversation with President Clinton only. No official transcript would be recorded and other Members of Congress would be barred from participating. I have rejected the Clintons’ ridiculous offer,” Comer said on Tuesday.

“The Clintons’ latest demands make clear they believe their last name entitles them to special treatment. The House Oversight Committee’s bipartisan subpoenas require the Clintons to appear for depositions that are under oath and transcribed. Former President Clinton has a documented history of parsing language to evade questions, responded falsely under oath, and was impeached and suspended from the practice of law as a result,” Comer said.

“The absence of an official transcript is an indefensible demand that is insulting to the American people who demand answers about Epstein’s crimes. As part of our investigation, the House Oversight Committee has released transcripts of interviews with former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr and former U.S. Secretary of Labor Alex Acosta, which has provided much needed transparency to the public. Without a formal record, Americans would be left to rely on competing accounts of what was said,” Comer added.

“Former Secretary Clinton’s on-the-record testimony is necessary for the Committee’s investigation given her knowledge from her time as Secretary of State of the federal government’s work to counter international sex-tracking rings, her personal knowledge of Ms. Maxwell, and her family’s relationship with Mr. Epstein,” he added.

January 21, 2026 – Rep. Luna: Epstein Files are now ready for release, Obama judge issues order that delays their release

U.S. District Judge Paul Engelmayer delays the release of the Epstein Files, January 21, 2026 (Credit: public domain)

Everyone is frustrated because they want to see the Epstein files and I do too, but here are the facts:

As of today, the DOJ has completed a review of over 5 million documents, conducted by over 500 attorneys, and they are ready to be released NOW.

However, Obama appointed Judge Paul Engelmayer has ordered a SECOND review of those documents and is now requiring certification of those documents by U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton, while simultaneously blocking the appointment of a special counsel. This is causing MAJOR delays.

I will be bringing forward a bill to IMPEACH Judge Engelmayer for obstructing the release of the Epstein files and failure to appoint special counsel! Release the files!

January 21, 2026 – Textbook due-process collapse in Colorado v. Tina Peters: The state admits she was never charged with the felony, the jury was never instructed on the felony

This is textbook due-process collapse. In Colorado v. Tina Peters, the state admits she was never charged with the felony, the jury was never instructed on the felony, and the jury actually convicted her of a misdemeanor—yet prosecutors insist courts can still enter a felony conviction because the evidence might have supported it.

That’s not law. That’s convict-first, justify-later. The Colorado Court of Appeals is rightly horrified because this would erase charging requirements, jury instructions, and verdicts entirely. If the state can swap crimes after trial, jury trials are meaningless.

Whatever you think of Tina Peters, this principle matters to everyone. Due process means you’re convicted only of crimes charged and instructed, not crimes prosecutors wish they’d charged. When the state argues otherwise, it’s not enforcing law—it’s dismantling it.

Dan Rubinstein heads the 21st Judicial District Attorney’s Office tasked with prosecuting former Mesa County Clerk.

Tina Peters’ appeal remains pending in the Colorado Court of Appeals as of January 22, 2026. Oral arguments were heard on January 14, 2026, before a three-judge panel.

The judges appeared highly skeptical of Peters’ arguments for full reversal of her convictions (e.g., federal immunity under the Supremacy Clause, insufficient evidence, due process violations). However, they expressed serious concerns about her 9-year sentence, including a potential procedural error that may have improperly elevated one count from misdemeanor to felony (adding ~15 months) and whether the trial judge improperly considered her post-conviction election beliefs and statements, potentially violating First Amendment protections.

The panel questioned the prosecution closely on sentencing fairness for a non-violent first-time offender. If the appeal partially succeeds on sentencing issues, the case would likely be remanded to the original trial court in Mesa County’s 21st Judicial District for resentencing—most probably before the same judge, Matthew Barrett, who imposed the original sentence (though Peters’ attorney requested a different judge). No ruling has been issued yet; a written decision is expected in the coming months.

I am skeptical because all 3 judges were appointed by liberal ex-governor Hickenlooper.

January 21, 2026 – House Oversight Committee votes to charge Clintons with criminal contempt for defying congressional subpoenas

Nine Democrats on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee voted with Republicans Wednesday to recommend holding former President Bill Clinton in contempt of Congress for defying a subpoena to testify as part of the panel’s investigation into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Three Democrats sided with Republicans in voting for a separate measure to recommend also holding former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in contempt.

Their votes underscore the continued pressure Democrats are under to remain consistent in their calls for transparency and accountability in the Epstein case — no matter the person or the party affiliation or the dire consequences.

The contempt reports now head to the House floor. Assuming the measures advance, the administration could choose to prosecute the former first couple, which could lead to potential jail time for one or both. (Read more: Politico, 1/21/2026) (Archive)

January 21, 2026 – Trump tells World Economic Forum the 2020 election was stolen and “people will soon be prosecuted for what they did”

Trump gave a phenomenal speech in Davos, championing Nationalism and national sovereignty and rebuking Europe’s globalist policies of unvetted mass migration.

“Certain places in Europe are not even recognizable, frankly, anymore. They’re not recognizable,” Trump said. “Many parts of our world are being destroyed before our very eyes, and the leaders don’t even understand what’s happening, and the ones that do understand aren’t doing anything about it.”

(…) Trump: The United States, is treated very unfairly by NATO, I want to tell you that. When you think about it, nobody can dispute it, we give so much, and we get so little in return. And I’ve been a critic of NATO for many years, and yet I’ve done more to help NATO than any other president, by far, than any other person. You wouldn’t have NATO if I didn’t get involved in my first term. The war with Ukraine is an example.

We are 1000s of miles away, separated by a giant ocean. It’s a war that should have never started, and it wouldn’t have started if the 2020 US presidential election weren’t rigged. It was a rigged election. Everybody now knows that. They found out. People will soon be prosecuted for what they did.

That’s probably breaking news, but it should be. It was a rigged election. Can’t have rigged elections. You need strong borders, strong elections, and ideally a good press. I always say it. Strong borders, strong elections, free, fair elections, and fair media. The media is terrible. It’s very crooked, it’s very biased, terrible. But someday it’ll straighten out, because it’s losing all credibility.

January 22, 2026 – Convicted Minnesota fraudster alleges Walz, Ellison were aware of widespread fraud

Aimee Bock, the former executive director of the nonprofit Feeding Our Future (Credit: public domain)

A Minnesota woman convicted in one of the state’s largest fraud schemes alleged in a jailhouse interview that Gov. Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison were aware of widespread fraud well before federal prosecutors stepped in.

Aimee Bock, the former head of the nonprofit Feeding Our Future, spoke to Fox News from Sherburne County Jail in Minnesota, claiming state officials continued approving and paying claims even after concerns were raised about potential fraud.

Bock alleged the state approved program sponsors and was responsible for monitoring claims, but officials repeatedly failed to investigate or stop suspicious companies after she flagged them.

“I honestly believe Keith Ellison and Gov. Walz need to be held accountable. There needs to be an investigation done. If they weren’t aware, that’s concerning,” she told Fox News.

“I have to believe that the governor’s office and Keith Ellison’s office were aware of this. They’ve said they were involved in helping the FBI. They’ve said they were made aware, but apparently I’m scary, so they couldn’t do anything,” Bock added.

In response, a spokesperson for Ellison’s office said Bock lacked credibility, pointing out her federal prison sentence. “She is a liar, fraudster, and manipulator of the highest order who has never acknowledged or accepted her guilt. Now, she’s on a media tour to deflect her guilt onto others instead of finally taking responsibility for the fraud scheme she ran,” the spokesperson said.

“Federal and state investigators meticulously examined the crimes Bock and her accomplices committed,” the Ellison spokesperson continued. “Bock alone is responsible for her own actions, which was proven in court beyond a shadow of a doubt, and her claim about Attorney General Ellison is a lie without a shred of evidence behind it.”

Federal prosecutors have said the scheme involved more than $250 million in stolen taxpayer funds intended to feed children during the COVID-19 pandemic, with sham restaurants set up to falsely claim reimbursements. (Read more: Fox News, 1/22/2026)  (Archive)

“‘Why a second oath after 11 months?’: Gooden, Jordan expose stunning details at Jack Smith hearing” captures part of the questioning on his swearing-in/oath process.

Rep. Darrell Issa questions Jack Smith about his weaponization of government against Republican lawmakers, forcing him to admit that he withheld the targets of his Arctic Frost investigation from a Judge when obtaining subpoenas for lawmakers’ phone records.

Former Metropolitan Police officer Michael Fanone interrupted Rep. Troy Nehls (R-TX) with a loud cough followed by an audible “Fk yourself” (or “Go fk yourself”), while Nehls was speaking and placing blame for January 6 events on Capitol Police leadership rather than former President Trump.

January 23, 2026 – Minneapolis – 400 Medicaid businesses in one building generated almost $380 million in billing to CMS

Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services (CMS) Director  and Deputy Director for Health and Human Services, Jim O’Neill, just released a stunning video from Minnesota. They discuss a former linen factory that was transformed into 400 Medicaid businesses that generated almost $380 million in billing to CMS.

It doesn’t make sense. One industrial building housing almost 400 individual Medicaid businesses that cost taxpayers $380 million in payments for services that are now under investigation. It is almost guaranteed this complex houses fraudulent fake businesses. Director Oz dropped the video on his X account.

“Why did no one in the state figure out this was a concern? Perplexingly to me, in a place of this nature, an industrial complex that people would not come to for child care or autism care or transportation support, how is it possible this could come up like an abscess in the heart of Minneapolis and nobody was watching?!”

“They generated about $380 million of billing that you, the taxpayer, were putting up. That means roughly each business had a million dollars of billing.” … “It’s an industrial area. There’s no reason that you have a mother bring her child.”

“You can’t imagine getting extra business support. An autistic child probably wouldn’t want to come here. You hear the noise. It’s just not a hospitable place.”

“The question is, how is it possible 400 businesses billing almost $400 million were able to thrive here?!”

“I think it’s because they weren’t looking. They didn’t want to know that this problem was happening here.”

“We’re here to figure out why these folks are being defrauded. Why the people who live in Minnesota aren’t getting access to the care they deserve because it’s been stolen.”

FBI Director Kash Patel fired senior agents and directors at the bureau this week with connections to the junk lawfare investigations of President Trump.

Tthe special agent in charge in Atlanta has been removed, as has the acting assistant director in charge of the New York field office, two people familiar with the matter said. A former special agent in charge in New Orleans who had recently moved on to another job was also ousted.

Six agents from the Miami office were forced out over the unprecedented raid at Mar-a-Lago.
Agents involved in Arctic Frost – the intel community’s spying on GOP Senators and Representatives were also relieved from duties.

January 24, 2026 – Minneapolis Signal Chat groups whose intent is to track federal agents and impede/assault/and obstruct, has been infiltrated

I have been undercover inside the groups for days.

You’ll notice emojis next to people’s names. Here’s a key for what those emojis mean.

The highlighted positions are the most crucial. Most are self explanatory. Mobile patrols spend their entire “shift” searching for suspicious vehicles.

When they find one they send it to the group so that “plate checkers” can compare with their database and see if it’s a known federal vehicle or if the patrol can make the confirmation so that the database can be updated.

Dispatch runs a maxed out call all day telling protestors where ICE has been spotted and how they can be best impeded.

(All relevant links/evidence will be on the last several posts of this 🧵)

Thanks to the great work undercover work of @camhigby, he revealed today that one of the leaders in organizing these violent anti-ICE riots is a woman named Amanda Koehler.

🟩 (Screenshot #1) We found this write up on Amanda Koehler’s LinkedIn. As you can see, she references an ICE Watch organization called, “Monarca”

🟩 (Screenshot #2) This is from the Minnesota government website, “Office of Ombudsperson for Families”. Notice that they listed:

❗️ Monarca as a resource.

❗️ S.A.L.U.T.E. as a strategy, a tactic in which ICE Watch networks train rioters. (See post below for further explanation by @LeighWolf and @pepesgrandma)

We literally have the Minnesota government and Tim Walz’s administration partnering with domestic terrorist ICE Watch networks to impede ICE from deporting violent illegal aliens.

This is straight up treason and Governor Walz needs to be arrested.

January 24, 2026 – Leftist activist Alex Pretti tangles with ICE while carrying a loaded gun and is shot dead

At 9:05 AM CT, as DHS law enforcement officers were conducting a targeted operation in Minneapolis against an illegal alien wanted for violent assault, an individual approached US Border Patrol officers with a 9 mm semi-automatic handgun, seen here.

The officers attempted to disarm the suspect but the armed suspect violently resisted. More details on the armed struggle are forthcoming.

Fearing for his life and the lives and safety of fellow officers, an agent fired defensive shots. Medics on scene immediately delivered medical aid to the subject but was pronounced dead at the scene.

The suspect also had 2 magazines and no ID—this looks like a situation where an individual wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement.

About 200 rioters arrived at the scene and began to obstruct and assault law enforcement on the scene, crowd control measures were deployed for the safety of the public and law enforcement.

This situation is evolving, and more information is forthcoming.

NEW: Attorney and self-defense expert Andrew Branca says the shooting of Alex Pretti was justified, lays out reasons why.

– “The moment he makes contact with that officer, he’s just committed a federal felony good for eight years in a federal penitentiary.”

– “That’s why they were seeking to make his arrest because they saw him commit a forcible felony against a fellow officer.”

– “Then he’s noncompliant with arrest. He’s fighting them. Then they discover he has a gun…”

– “They take that gun. There are cries of ‘gun, gun, gun.’ The officers called to each other. He’s still noncompliant. They hear a gunshot go off. And Alex Pretty’s right hand comes from his waistline with a black object in his hand.”

– “That combination of facts is going to get you shot 999 times out of a thousand by law enforcement, and justifiably so.”

“They’re making all these perceptions, all these decisions in a violent, chaotic melee caused by Alex Pretti.”

“They have to make all these decisions in a split second because that’s how quickly someone can use a weapon against you, and those decisions.”

“They don’t have to be correct. The law of self-defense does not require us to make perfect decisions…”

January 25, 2026 – Antifa organizations in multiple states have gone to full mobilization status and are heading to Minneapolis

More food for thought:

Professional organizers in the 1970s trained me as a teenager to do the stupid protest stuff like vandalism, destroying property, and creating provocations to get stomped and clubbed by National Guardsmen for the news cameras to turn people against the authorities.

We thought it was a fun adventure and enjoyed being part of an edgy “struggle” in what we had been led to believe was a righteous cause. In my case, it was anti-nuclear activism.

Those who knew what they were doing never put themselves in danger.

They trained and set up the rest of us as dupes to face the consequences. That was about 80 percent of us.

They used us to create outrage imagery, and to use our shouts and chants to intimidate political figures and the public. They used us to provoke situations that would turn the public against the police and National Guard.

We were just all-American high school kids. Harmless. Idealistic. Innocent-looking.

It was all engineered anger. PSYOP against the public and against ourselves.

When I realized that the cause wasn’t about the cause, but was about a Communist revolution against our country, I broke ranks and spent the rest of my life fighting them.

I was 16 years old at the time. Luckily I hadn’t gotten involved in any destruction or violence, but had learned enough to infiltrate and disrupt the movement until I was well into my twenties.

From that experience, I went on to infiltrate Communist guerrilla front groups, and Soviet international front organizations like the World Peace Council and disrupted their multimillion-dollar operations. This time, for Uncle Sam.

Used the enemy’s tactics against them.

Most of the rest just chose to remain dupes. That was almost 50 years ago.

The Minneapolis insurgency is nothing new. It has been evolving for decades, refined to an art form.

What about the 20 percent who were not dupes? They knew exactly what they were doing. Back then, they had supported Fidel Castro, the Weather Underground, and our Vietcong and North Vietnam Communist enemies.

Many of them are still around. Some remain sharp and militant. Others are the geriatrics you see with their “No Kings” signs, hauling out their grandchildren – or other people’s grandchildren – to train them as the fourth or fifth generation of militants. Many are still dupes.

January 26, 2026 – Tim Walz reaches out to Trump, agrees to have police work with ICE to remove criminal illegal aliens in Minnesota; Frey is not as cooperative

January 26, 2026

Governor Tim Walz called me with the request to work together with respect to Minnesota. It was a very good call, and we, actually, seemed to be on a similar wavelength. I told Governor Walz that I would have Tom Homan call him, and that what we are looking for are any and all Criminals that they have in their possession. The Governor, very respectfully, understood that, and I will be speaking to him in the near future. He was happy that Tom Homan was going to Minnesota, and so am I! We have had such tremendous SUCCESS in Washington, D.C., Memphis, Tennessee, and New Orleans, Louisiana, and virtually every other place that we have “touched” and, even in Minnesota, Crime is way down, but both Governor Walz and I want to make it better! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP

I am sending Tom Homan to Minnesota tonight. He has not been involved in that area, but knows and likes many of the people there. Tom is tough but fair, and will report directly to me. Separately, a major investigation is going on with respect to the massive 20 Billion Dollar, Plus, Welfare Fraud that has taken place in Minnesota, and is at least partially responsible for the violent organized protests going on in the streets. Additionally, the DOJ and Congress are looking at “Congresswoman” Illhan Omar, who left Somalia with NOTHING, and is now reportedly worth more than 44 Million Dollars. Time will tell all. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DJT

January 26, 2026 – Tim Walz is emboldened by what amounts to organized crime with badges and budgets

Cam Higby’s infiltration of these groups blew the lid off. In Minneapolis, Signal chats are buzzing with anti-ICE operatives, and local police are complicit, cooperative even with real-time access to national databases for tracing license plates, courtesy of law enforcement insiders. Shift changes are being leaked from within departments.

As a former Special Forces Warrant Officer with multiple rotations running counterinsurgency ops—both hunting insurgents and trying to separate them from sympathetic populations—I’ve seen organized resistance up close. From Anbar to Helmand, the pattern is familiar: spotters, cutouts, dead drops (or modern equivalents), disciplined comms, role specialization, and a willingness to absorb casualties while bleeding the stronger force slowly.

What’s unfolding in Minneapolis right now isn’t “protest.” It’s low-level insurgency infrastructure, built by people who’ve clearly studied the playbook.

Signal groups at 1,000-member cap per zone. Dedicated roles: mobile chasers, plate checkers logging vehicle data into shared databases, 24/7 dispatch nodes vectoring assets, SALUTE-style reporting (Size, Activity, Location, Unit, Time, Equipment) on suspected federal vehicles. Daily chat rotations and timed deletions to frustrate forensic recovery. Vetting processes for new joiners. Mutual aid from sympathetic locals (teachers providing cover, possible PD tip-offs on license plate lookups). Home-base coordination points. Rapid escalation from observation to physical obstruction—or worse.

This isn’t spontaneous outrage. This is C2 (command and control) with redundancy, OPSEC hygiene, and task organization that would make a SF team sergeant nod in recognition. Replace “ICE agents” with “occupying coalition forces” and the structure maps almost 1:1 to early-stage urban cells we hunted in the mid-2000s.

The most sobering part? It’s domestic. Funded, trained (somewhere), and directed by people who live in the same country they’re trying to paralyze law enforcement in. When your own citizens build and operate this level of parallel intelligence and rapid-response network against federal officers—complete with doxxing, vehicle pursuits, and harassment that’s already turned lethal—you’re no longer dealing with civil disobedience. You’re facing a distributed resistance that’s learned the lessons of successful insurgencies: stay below the kinetic threshold most of the time, force over-reaction when possible, maintain popular support through narrative, and never present a single center of gravity.

I spent years training partner forces to dismantle exactly this kind of apparatus. Now pieces of it are standing up in American cities, enabled by elements of local government and civil society. That should keep every thinking American awake at night.

Not because I want escalation. But because history shows these things don’t de-escalate on their own once the infrastructure exists and the cadre believe they’re winning the information war.

We either recognize what we’re actually looking at—or we pretend it’s still just “activism” until the structures harden and spread.

Your call, America. But from where I sit, this isn’t January 2026 politics anymore.
It’s phase one of something we’ve spent decades trying to keep off our own soil.

January 27, 2026 – Cam Higby finds Minnesota AG Keith Ellison is linked to Signalgate

ATTORNEY GENERAL LINK TO SIGNAL GATE:

In their legal help signal channel, was instructions to report federal agents to Minnesota Attorney General Kieth Ellison.

The link led directly a page designed by Ellison’s office for reporting Feds. Ellison has been seen outside of the Whipple federal building ENGAGING IN PROTESTS with the insurrectionists who just a few nights prior tried to kill me, and attempted to bring the fence down.

How involved is Kieth Ellison??

January 28, 2026 – FBI searches ‘Ground Zero’ Fulton County election office in 2020 voter fraud probe

The FBI arrives at the Fulton County Election Hub and Operation Center with a subpoena. (Credit: video clipping)

The FBI has raided a Fulton County, Georgia election hub that was ‘ground zero’ for voter fraud concerns in the 2020 election, Fox News reports.

Agents could be seen entering the Fulton County Election Hub and Operation Center, a new facility which opened in 2023 – and was designed to streamline their election process (we’re sure!).

According to the report, it was not immediately clear what the FBI agents were investigating, just that it’s related to the 2020 US election.

In December, news broke that tabulation tapes in Fulton County were not signed, affecting 315,000 votes. After Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger tried to reassure voters that “Georgia has the most secure elections in the country,” Republicans questioned him…

“If only Georgia had an official responsible for preventing clerical errors that undermine election integrity. Is there anyone in Georgia who has that job, Brad?”said Lt. Gov. Burt Jones, who is running for governor.

US Rep. Mike Collins, who is running for Senate, said he was “tired of empty words from weak leaders,” adding “Turns out over 300,000 early votes in the 2020 election were illegally certified but still included in the final results.” (Read more: Zero Hedge, 1/28/2026)  (Archive)

Statement from Julie Adams:

“The DOJ wrote to Fulton County in August of last year, asking for the ballots. DOJ wrote another letter in October asking again for the 2020 ballots and other records. Two weeks ago, the FBI delivered a third letter. But the majority of the Fulton County Board of Elections literally denied these requests. The Georgia State Election Board has been trying for 4 years to get the records. Including issuing a subpoena for the ballots and other records. And ALL of those efforts have failed. Until today.

I applaud Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel for finally searching for and retrieving the records from the 2020 election that the U.S. Attorney General under federal law is entitled to receive and review.

It is my hope that the FBI is in the process of getting every box of 2020 election materials in that warehouse to be able to piece together, once and for all, the truth about 2020. I am dedicated to making sure to the best of my ability that elections in Fulton County are accurate.

Let’s hope this starts a new chapter in Fulton County for transparency and accountability.”

Amazing!

All physical ballots from the 2020 General Election in Fulton County

All tabulator tapes for every voting machine used in Fulton County; including, but not limited to; ZERO TAPES, opening tapes, closing tapes and any other tabulator tape printed from a voting machine utilized during the 2020 General Election in Fulton County

All ballot images produced during the original ballot count beginning on November 3, 2020, THE RECOUNT, and any other ballot images

All voter rolls from the 2020 General Election in Fulton County from absentee, early voting, in person, and any other voter roll that indicates voters: to whom an absentee ballot was issued, from whom an absentee ballot was received, or who participated in advanced voting or election day voting

NEW: FBI executes search warrant on Fulton County Election Center, seizing contentious 2020 election ballots

For six years, the public has still not been allowed to inspect 145,000 ballots that six sworn affidavits say were counterfeit.

A judge ordered these ballots inspected years ago. Fulton County refused.

Excerpts from witness affidavits include:

Susan Voyles, 20-year election official:
“Pristine” ballots “difference in the texture of the paper” with “a different feel” and “no markings” and approximately “98% for Joe Biden.”

Georgia Democrat observer:
“Hundreds of ballots with no folds or creases. Perfect black bubbles. All for Biden.”

Another Georgia Democrat:
“All had perfect black bubbles and were all Biden. I heard ‘Biden’ over 500 times in a row.”

@VoterGa has been fighting in court for six years just to inspect these ballots.

Why was Fulton County so determined to keep them hidden?

BREAKING!🚨Fulton County Chairman Rob Pitts at election warehouse says the 2020 ballots are no longer safe and secure because they are out of Fulton County’s control.

“…they have been removed from this facility, out of our control. We don’t know where they’re being taken, we don’t know what’s going to happen to them…”

Despite Chairman Pitt’s giving Fulton County an A+ rating for their handling of the 2020 election, Fulton County hired one of Georgias top ten criminal defense lawyers after a judge unsealed the ballots.

One would think if Fulton County meticulously ran a flawless election, than a transparent audit would simply reflect that, and no criminal defense lawyers would be needed.

President Trump’s legal team exposing the 2020 Election Fraud at the Georgia State Farm Arena pulling suitcases full of alleged fraudulent ballots from under tables after the election center was shut down, running the same stacks of ballots over, and over, and over, all throughout the night until Biden was ahead, stealing the election from President Trump.

This is exactly why the FBI raided the election center today in Fulton County, Atlanta, Georgia. This is only the beginning. Prosecutions are coming.

Hi there. Former Intel guy who is also a former law enforcement guy here.

If Gabbard is on scene, it means that the FBI has found a foreign/counterintelligence nexus to the investigation into the 2020 election in Georgia; otherwise they’d be reporting to Bondi and DOJ.

Gabbard was very likely able to discern the relevant gist from the documents recovered because she already knew what they contained before she ever arrived.

Let me explain a bit further.

To get a search warrant, a Federal Magistrate—one with no ties to Trump, and in fact a resume filled with Legal Aid and Public Defense—found probable cause that evidence of a crime existed in the narrow scope of what was being requested via search warrant. Considering how not-narrow of scope that warrant actually turned out to be, and Gabbard’s involvement, we can deduce several things.

First, that there is already a substantial case that some serious crime occurred and that this is not anywhere near the first evidence they’ve collected. Getting such a warrant from such a Magistrate would be essentially impossible otherwise; we can’t even get a similarly situated Magistrate to provide the pro forma signature on a Complaint related to Don Lemon committing several felonies on public video, with numerous admissions and confessions. Let’s not pretend here.

Second, that the foreign nexus has probably already been getting plugged away at with the foreign-oriented intelligence apparatus for some time. It is probable, I’d hazard a guess, that a FISA warrant or two have been employed.

Gabbard already knew exactly what they were looking for and she wanted to be on scene for its recovery.

TL;DR — Somebody, somewhere, someday soon is completely f*cked.

I’ll save conjecture for a follow-on post.

Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, released a bombshell report with new and damning information on Wednesday. On Wednesday afternoon she shared with White House reporters at the daily briefing. The documents reveal it was Barack Obama and the FBI and CIA leadership at the time to sabotage President Trump before he even stepped into office. Obama did this knowing the entire story was manufactured and not a word of it was true.

Gabbard released one House Intelligence Report that had been locked up in a CIA vault for almost a decade! It now is clear that Obama doctored the information to make it look like Putin and his buddy Donald Trump stole the election.

There were four key elements in the reports about the fake Russian collusion that formed the basis of the Russia hoax.
Jesse Watters reported:
1.) That Vladimir Putin wanted Donald Trump to to win in 2016.
2.) That Putin took action to help Donald Trump win in 2016.
3.) Russia had blackmail evidence against Trump – the Steele dossier.
4.) Russia tried to collude with the Trump campaign.

This was all a lie and they knew it.

There was no reliable information to back up any of their allegations.

During her press conference with White House reporters, DNI Tulsi Gabbard said she has already turned this information on Obama over to the Department of Justice.

January 29, 2026 – Seattle mayor pushes her police force to track ICE agents’ enforcement activities

Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson (Credit: Katie Wilson for Seattle)

Seattle’s progressive Mayor Katie Wilson announced a series of moves Thursday that ban federal agents from using city property to conduct immigration enforcement operations and requiring the police department to investigate, verify, and document reports of enforcement activities, citing the “unpredictable, chaotic, and violent behavior” of the federal government.

In a news release, Wilson, who was sworn in as mayor earlier this month, said she will sign an executive order prohibiting federal immigration authorities from using city-owned and city-controlled property for immigration enforcement activities.

“Whoever you are, and wherever you come from: if Seattle is your home, then this is your city,” said Wilson said in a news release announcing the move. “And it’s our responsibility as city leaders to move quickly and get organized so we can keep people safe.”

(…) Officers dispatched to reports of ICE activity will document the activity with in-car and body-worn video, as well as validate the status of federal law enforcement agents through official identification and securing scenes of potentially unlawful acts to gather evidence for prosecutors.

“I understand the concern and anxiety in the community, and I want to make sure everyone knows that the police are here to keep you safe, regardless of your immigration status,” said Seattle Police Chief Shon Barnes. “The City of Seattle is a welcoming city, and my officers will continue to abide by all laws and regulations that prohibit our participation in immigration enforcement.”

Mike Solan, president of the Seattle Police Officers Guild, the union that represents rank-and-file officers, shot down the idea of having officers pulled into the fight between local jurisdictions and the federal government.

January 30, 2026 – Svetlana Lokhova: Senator Mark Warner must face a criminal investigation for his central role in the Russia collusion hoax

Why Senator Mark Warner Must Face a Full Criminal Investigation for His Central Role in the Russia Collusion Hoax, as part of the Grand Conspiracy to Subvert an American Election and Presidency

The American people were sold one of the greatest political lies in history: that Donald Trump was a Russian asset, secretly elected with Putin’s help, and that patriotic Americans who questioned this fairy tale were “conspiracy theorists.”

The Steele Dossier, a Clinton-campaign-funded compilation of lies, was the poisonous seed. The FBI used it to spy on a presidential campaign. The media used it to terrorize the country for years. And sitting at the very center of Congress’s “bipartisan” Russia investigation was Senator Mark Warner (D-VA), the man who did more than almost anyone to keep this hoax alive long after it had been exposed as garbage.

Declassified documents, leaked text messages, whistleblower testimony, and the Durham investigation prove he was an active participant in a coordinated effort to weaponize the intelligence community, foreign intelligence assets, opposition researchers, and billionaire donors against a sitting president.

This is the real conspiracy, not the imaginary kind Warner spent years chasing .

Here are the facts that demand Warner be hauled before a grand jury, placed under oath, and investigated for abuse of power, conspiracy to defraud the United States, and possible violations of the Logan Act, Espionage Act, and campaign finance laws.

1. Warner Ran a Secret Back-Channel to Christopher Steele Through a Russian Oligarch’s Lobbyist, While Publicly Screaming About “Russian Influence”
In February 2018, Fox News published explosive text messages between Mark Warner and lobbyist Adam Waldman. Waldman represented Oleg Deripaska – yes, the same sanctioned Russian oligarch at the center of so much of the “Russia collusion” nonsense.

What do the texts show?

-Warner desperately wanted a secret call with Christopher Steele, the discredited former MI6 officer who promoted the dossier.

-Warner explicitly told Waldman he did not want Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr (R-NC) to know about it.

-Warner instructed Waldman to set up the call with “no paper trail.”

-When Steele got cold feet, Warner pushed harder: “Important… this all stays strictly between us.”

Let that sink in. The ranking Democrat on the committee investigating Russian interference was secretly negotiating with a lobbyist for a Russian oligarch to get off-the-record access to the author of the central piece of evidence in that investigation – and he wanted zero official record of it.

This is the same Mark Warner who spent years on television warning about “Russian disinformation” and the danger of back-channel contacts with Russians.

Yet here he was, running his own back-channel through Deripaska’s paid representative to the single most compromised source in the entire scandal.

Why the secrecy? Because Warner knew the dossier was collapsing. Steele had already been terminated by the FBI as a source for lying. His “primary sub-source”, Igor Danchenko, was later indicted for lying to the FBI. Warner didn’t want official scrutiny – he wanted to keep the narrative alive behind closed doors.

2. Warner Coordinated with Dan Jones, The Man Who Took Over Funding Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele and Kept the Hoax Machine Running After the Election

After Trump won, the Clinton campaign and the DNC stopped paying Fusion GPS and Steele. Enter Daniel Jones, former Senate Intelligence Committee staffer for Dianne Feinstein and close Warner ally.

Jones admitted under oath that he raised approximately $50 million , much of it from Silicon Valley billionaires (Reid Hoffman) and George Soros-linked groups, to continue the “research” into Trump-Russia ties through his organizations: the Penn Quarter Group and The Democracy Integrity Project (TDIP).

What did Jones do with the money?
– Paid Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele to keep digging.
-Fed opposition research directly to the FBI, the State Department, and, crucially, to the Senate Intelligence Committee that Mark Warner was now helping lead.

-Ran a media influence operation that planted hundreds of collusion stories in major outlets.

Jones was in constant contact with Warner’s circle. Declassified materials and reporting show Warner’s team relied on Jones/Fusion material while pretending their investigation was pristine and independent. The final SSCI Russia report, released under Warner’s vice-chairmanship and later chairmanship, still cited dossier-sourced claims that had already been debunked.

This was not oversight. This was outsourcing a partisan smear operation to private actors and then laundering their “findings” through an official Senate committee to give them legitimacy.

3. Warner Oversaw a Committee That Leaked Like a Sieve and Protected the Hoax Architects
Under Warner’s watch, classified information from the Senate Intelligence Committee flowed to friendly reporters. Security director James Wolfe was caught leaking the Carter Page FISA application to his girlfriend Ali Watkins and others. Wolfe got a slap on the wrist, two months in prison, after the DOJ mysteriously dropped 18 U.S.C. § 641 charges that could have sent him away for years.

Who benefited from the leaks? The same media outlets pushing the collusion narrative Warner wanted alive.
When the Wolfe scandal broke, Warner’s response was not outrage at the breach, it was to attack reporters who exposed it.

4. Warner Repeatedly Lied to the Public and Pushed for Investigations He Knew Were Based on Garbage
Warner went on television countless times claiming the Senate Intelligence Committee had seen “incredible evidence” of coordination between Trump and Russia.

Yet when the Mueller Report found no such thing, Warner quietly pivoted to “counterintelligence concerns,” never admitting the central role the discredited dossier played in launching the entire probe.
He pushed for the Mueller special counsel within days of Comey’s firing , before the dossier’s problems were fully exposed.

He defended the FBI’s handling of the FISA warrants on Carter Page even after Inspector General Horowitz found 17 major errors and omissions.

This Was a Conspiracy , and Warner Was Near the Center

January 30, 2026 – Epstein Files: Head of the World Economic Forum resigns

The President and CEO of the World Economic Forum, the convenor of the infamous annual Davos globalism conference, has resigned after Epstein email releases revealed his links to the disgraced financier.

Former Norwegian Minister of Foreign Affairs and leader of the World Economic Forum (WEF) Børge Brende announced his resignation from the top pro-globalisation group on Thursday, stating that after “careful consideration” he had concluded his remaining at the top was proving a distraction for the work of the group.

The WEF’s latest Davos conference took place in January. Long one of the world’s most prominent forums for political, business, and financial leaders but associated as much with the prevalence of prostitution and private jets as with deal-making, the meeting was rocked this year by the arrival of U.S. President Trump, who parked his metaphorical tanks on the globalist lawn with a speech focusing on tariffs.

France’s Le Figaro notes attention honed in on erstwhile WEF boss Brende after the U.S. Department of Justice published the Epstein emails a month ago, which showed the Norwegian diplomat had met with Epstein three times and exchanged several messages with him between 2018 and 2019.

While Brende defended himself as not knowing about Epstein’s past and stating the meetings were purely business-related, they took place after the disgraced financier had served a prison term for child sex offences and had frequently been in the headlines as he faced allegations over further abuses against young women.

Their final meeting was only months before Epstein’s death in an American prison.

Far from being remote business contacts, the messages revealed in the emails suggested a closer relationship. The Financial Times notes Brende wrote to Epstein: “thx for a very interesting dinner … You’re a brilliant host. Warmly, Borge,” and said “Missing you Sir. Borge.”

Alleged messages said to have been unveiled in the email archive show Brende and Epstein discussing the Middle East and planning

Brende said today: “After careful consideration, I have decided to step down as President and CEO of the World Economic Forum. My time here, spanning 8½ years, has been profoundly rewarding. We have seen a record number of partners join us, and we have had a very successful Annual Meeting in Davos behind us, where we engaged with governmental leaders from all over the world like never before. I am grateful for the incredible collaboration with my colleagues, partners, and constituents, and I believe now is the right moment for the Forum to continue its important work without distractions.” (Read more: Breitbart News, 2/26/2026)  (Archive)

January 30, 2026 – Epstein Files: New video log reveals an orange shape near Epstein cell; noose found near body is not cause of death

This image from the video — zoomed in and highlighted by CBS News – shows a partial view of something orange on the stairs leading to Jeffrey Epstein’s cell tier.
(Credit: U.S. Bureau of Prisons)

Newly released Department of Justice documents show that investigators reviewing surveillance footage from the night of Jeffrey Epstein’s death observed an orange-colored shape moving up a staircase toward the isolated, locked tier where his cell was located at approximately 10:39 p.m. on Aug. 9, 2019.

That entry in an observation log of the video from the Metropolitan Correctional Center appears to suggest something previously unreported by authorities: “A flash of orange looks to be going up the L Tier stairs — could possibly be an inmate escorted up to that Tier.”

It also appears, according to an FBI memorandum, that reviews by investigators led to disparate conclusions by the FBI and those examining the same video from the Department of Justice’s Office of Inspector General.

The FBI log describes the fuzzy image as “possibly an inmate.”

(…) The new records raise more questions about activity near Epstein’s tier late that evening. Official reviews of Epstein’s death make no mention of the figure in orange, and later pronouncements from authorities including the attorney general at the time, Bill Barr, were  that no one entered Epstein’s housing tier the night of his death. Last summer in an interview on “Fox & Friends,” then-deputy FBI director Dan Bongino said, “There’s video clear as day, he’s the only person in there and the only person coming out. You can see it.”

Prison employees interviewed by CBS News said escorting an inmate at that hour would have been highly unusual. The identification of the individual could have been crucial to reconstructing the events, given that the sighting occurred within the estimated window of Epstein’s possible time of death.

The staircase leading to his cell tier was captured by the only camera known to have been recording that night, positioned in a way that partially obscured the approach to Epstein’s tier. Government investigators relied heavily on that footage in reconstructing the timeline of events. But because of the camera angle, it was not possible to rule out whether someone could have climbed the stairs and entered the tier without being clearly visible. CBS News’ analysis of that video found additional contradictions between what the video showed and official statements.

January 30, 2026 – Highlights of the latest DOJ release of 3.5 million Epstein documents

The Justice Department released 3.5 million pages of investigative material on deceased sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein Friday, the biggest single tranche of records dealing with the late pedophile.

The files also include at least 2,000 videos and 180,000 images, not all of which were taken by Epstein, according to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, as well as search warrants, previously sealed court documents, flight logs and new emails.

The records include search warrants for the disgraced financier’s Upper East Side mansion, executed on July 6, 2019, and private estate in the US Virgin Islands, searched on Aug. 12 of that same year — two days after Epstein was found dead in a Manhattan jail in what was later ruled a suicide.

Deputy AG Todd Blanche says DOJ releasing 3.5 million Epstein files

THIS IS HUGE.

The individual who anonymously posted on 4Chan the morning of Epstein’s death, August 10, 2019 claiming he witnessed weird happenings at the prison before Epstein’s death has been identified in the Epstein files.

Roberto Grijalva, an officer at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York has been identified as the anonymous prison employee who posted on 4Chan claiming Epstein left his cell Friday evening shackled in a medical wheelchair while at the same time an unauthorized trip van arrived at the prison, which he believes took Epstein away the night BEFORE news broke of his death.

The day after Epstein’s death, U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman of the SDNY opened a Grand Jury proceeding and subpoenaed 4Chan, Apple, AT&T and Citibank for records aiming to uncover Grijalva’s identity following the anonymous 4Chan post.

Grijalva’s name is not redacted on his bank records included in the SDNY subpoena response from Citibank for his 4Chan post, and ties to the same Prison Officer Roberto Grijalva whose statements were released as part of the prison’s investigation into Epstein’s death.

This is HUGE. We now have validation the 4Chan post from 8/10/2019 is a legitimate eyewitness account from an MCC prison officer that Epstein may have been switched out before news broke of his alleged suicide.

Bill Gates Panics Over Latest Epstein Files: ‘Completely False’

Norwegian Crown Princess Under Fire for Being Featured in Hundreds of New Epstein Files, While Her Son Is on Trial Accused of Raping Four Women

The Epstein-Rothschild Connections

The attached email is the most shocking email I’ve seen yet in the Epstein release and I haven’t seen anyone talking about it.

“We’ve had another serious incident since an American shot the trial judge in our child sex trafficking case here.”

I’m sorry, WTF? An American was in Mexico and shot a trial judge overseeing a child sex trafficking case? Yes.

It goes on “He and I both think this latest incident is tied to the fact we have reached out to your team. Who on your team knows we are talking to you, anyone assigned from NSA, CIA or US State Department? Please understand peoples lives here are in jeopardy.”

The guy writing the email is accusing the DOJ of having someone from the NSA, CIA or State on his team AND suggesting their knowledge of prosecuting a sex trafficker would generate a hit on the judge assigned to the case.

It gets better (worse)…

That wasn’t the first violent attempt to stop the prosecution of a sex trafficker. “We have had 4 armed attacks against us, my partner has shot and killed 2 and wounded 5 American agents to date, numerous white American agents following us in vans assigned to US Embassy. Jorge was attacked and lost his arm.”

Holy crap!!! In 2019, US Embassy (likely CIA) vans were stalking our own guys assisting in MX to prosecute sex trafficking.

“The President of Mexico is keenly aware of our case against Marcinko and other US Officials. This case we have here is most certainly connected to yours, we have the proof. Our case will help bring a whole new dynamic to what you know and who is involved, Prince Phillip is small fry compared to what we have uncovered.”

Richard Marcinko is late founder of SEAL Team Six (who died in 2021).

“You may want to question the Ex US Ambassador to Mexico; Mr. Earl Anthony Wayne about his involvement with an underage girl when he attended and was arrested by the Federal Police. We believe that Marcinko and Epstein were involved organizing this party and it was held in Juarez, Mex in 2014 at a US Consulate controlled housing facility.”

Under aged females at a US Consulate facility for a part organized by a former SEAL and Epstein.

“Ask him (Epstein) how he knows Richard Marcinko. He (the ambassador) was sentenced in Mexico in 2017 to a life sentence for impregnating an 11 year old girl, her son’s dna matches Waynes 100%, but he is allowing an ex-US Marine to stand in his place to serve his sentence in Mexico. That was an agreement worked out between our US State Dept and a judge in Mexico after a huge payoff. Mr. Anthony has an outstanding arrest warrant here in Mexico for avoiding sentencing.”

You read that correctly, a former Marine was imprisoned for raping an 11 yr old girl KNOWING it was the ambassador that raped her and the deal was set up by the State Dept.

“I want confirm that the phone you will be using has been swept for malware and key loggers. After our call you’ll understand why we are so concerned with secure comms here.”

The agent on the ground in Mexico insists that the person ensure his phone is free from spyware to ensure the safety of the ppl involved in uncovering a child trafficking ring which is exposing corruption of State Dept personnel and CIA. The response:

“My Task Force is not affiliated with the intelligence community”

Of course, the task force was affiliated with the intelligence community and obviously being monitored by it. What a retarded thing to say. It was getting ppl on the ground in Mexico murdered.

“Just left Ghislaine’s townhouse…after party for film,” the early morning message said.
“Bill Clinton and Jeff Bezos were there…Jean Pigozzi, director MIra Nair…etc. Film received tepid reaction though women like it much more…Hillary Swank and [Richard] Gere are at stupid party in Bloomingdales cheap sportswear department…very weird,” the email continued.

Commerce Secretary Lutnick visited ‘Pedo Island’, emails indicate

A group of 25 alleged accomplices of dead pedophile Jeffrey Epstein made “secret settlements” with accusers — while four alleged co-conspirators were never charged, Epstein’s convicted madam Ghislaine Maxwell revealed in court papers.

“New Evidence reveals that there were 25 men with which the plaintiff lawyers reached secret settlements – that could equally be considered as co-conspirators,” Maxwell wrote in December in the papers, filed without her lawyers, seeking to overturn her conviction.

Ghislaine Maxwell claims 25 Jeffrey Epstein accomplices reached ‘secret settlements’ after abuse allegations: court papers

I’m utterly blown away by this new audio in the Epstein Files. It shows the secret conversation you fear every high-level gov’t official might have with an outside fixer to hook them up the moment they “leave government to enter the private sector.”

Here, Jeffrey Epstein teaches Ehud Barak — while he is still Minister of Defense in Israel but on his way out — how to make millions of dollars in the private sector by first compiling a list of people who owe him favors from his 40 years in government service.

Epstein then told Ehud Barak to pursue Peter Thiel, whose name at that point Ehud Barak did not even know how to spell, and to try to connect with a company called Palantir, which existence Ehud Barak had never heard of, and whose name Jeffrey Epstein didn’t know how to spell.

Credit @RyanGrim whose clip I first saw to look for this. I used Grok to backtrace the source link from the audio. Ryan assesses this meeting took place in February 2013, which seems to line up with the audio saying Ehud Barak is about 71 at the time of the recording, as Ehud Barak is 83 today.

Here is one of @RepThomasMassie alleged “survivors”

Elizabeth Stein

She works for Tides Foundation (soros open society funded) funded World Without Exploitation

They produced the superbowl commercial of “victims” this past weekend

She was a FULL GROWN ASS WOMAN when she met Maxwell at her job at 21 years old

She formed a 3 year *friendship* with Epstein and Maxwell……..apparently sexual

She didn’t realize she was trafficked until 30 years later when Epstein was sentenced.

She attempted but failed to recover funds from the Victims fund

Maxwell’s attorney pointed out she did not legally qualify as a “crime victim” under the CVRA and she received no payout.

But she sure did try.

Kathy Ruemmler was Bill Clinton’s lawyer…

Kathy was sleeping with the married Epstein personal lawyer at the time she was in the White House. She did numerous deals with the Obama DoJ for Epstein’s clients such as the Rothschilds, with one deal alone paying her 10 million and Epstein 25 million dollars.

Ruemmler emailed with Epstein more than 11 thousand times, had numerous meetings with him. Ruemmler received luxury gifts from “Uncle Jeffrey” him such as first-class trips abroad, handbags worth over 9 thousand dollars, etc etc.

January 30, 2026 – Epstein Files: Billionaire Leon Black is accused of violent assaults on Epstein victims

WHO IS LEON BLACK?

Leon Black had the closest relationship with Jeffrey Epstein of anyone.

And this is where things get really, really dark.

You see, Leon Black was a biter. “That fat fuck bit me. He threw me on the floor and blood all over Jeffreys carpet,” one woman journaled. She wasn’t alone.

Leon Black founded Apollo Global Management — one of the largest private equity firms on earth. $600 billion in assets under management. He was one of the most powerful men on Wall Street for three decades.

He paid Jeffrey Epstein $158 million.

No written contract. No invoices. $23-26 million per year to a man who was neither a licensed attorney nor a CPA. When the Senate Finance Committee asked how the payments were calculated, Black refused to answer.

Apollo hired the law firm Dechert to investigate. Their finding: “Epstein was being paid for some reason other than the services he was providing.”

667 DOJ documents. Every quote below is verbatim.

Black says he paid Epstein for “professional advisory services.” The documents show something else entirely.

Deutsche Bank’s internal credit committee: “Leon Black was referred to new AWM banker Paul Morris by Jeffrey Epstein, Black’s estate/tax planning attorney.” Epstein wasn’t advising. He was choosing Black’s banks and orchestrating a $1.5 billion estate restructuring.

Deutsche Bank internal email, April 2015: “They confirmed Jeffrey Epstein will have authority to transact on Leon’s behalf.” The same week, a DB banker processed “additional paperwork to add JE as POA.” Power of Attorney. Over a billionaire’s bank account. Given to Jeffrey Epstein.

Leon Black’s personal assistant emailed Epstein: “I’m sending over the bank statements now – if you have any questions about the deposits, just give me a call.” Epstein’s instruction: “fed ex to my st thomas office.” A billionaire’s bank statements — FedExed to Epstein’s island.

In Epstein’s files: Black’s complete net worth. $5.3 billion. Art: $1.68 billion. Seven trusts named Yggdrasil, Gandalf, Tron, Rollo Tomasi, Mallory. The $1 billion art insurance policy. Epstein had the complete financial X-ray of one of the richest men in America.

Epstein’s own employees — using @epstein.com email addresses — filed Black’s personal taxes. On Epstein’s payroll, filing a billionaire’s 1040.

The only known email in Black’s own words: “I don’t think we got a chance to cover about 2/3 of relevant matters including Rowan, etal; plus I am still getting over the unsettling shock of your last 4 page epistle. Maybe we should focus on having some fun for now.” Rowan is Marc Rowan — Apollo’s co-founder. Epstein was sending 4-page strategy memos about Apollo’s internal politics.

21 wire transfers from Black to Epstein. All routed to “Southern Trust Company Inc” — Epstein’s entity in the U.S. Virgin Islands. When Deutsche Bank’s anti-money laundering unit flagged a $22.5 million wire, the compliance inquiry came back: “The purpose of the wire was to pay a fee as Mr. Black is a client of Mr. Epstein. Mr. Epstein is expecting $8-10mn more to come into the account.” The wire went from BV70 LLC — Black’s yacht entity — to Plan D LLC — Epstein’s aircraft entity. $22.5 million from a yacht to a plane.

And money flowed both ways. Black’s assistant to Epstein’s office: “Leon said thank you for the check, but he said it was supposd to be $1,500,000, so can we have the other $500,000!!!!” Subject line: “MRA check.” Four exclamation points.

FBI raid of Little St. James Island, August 2019. Photo log entry: “Leon D. Black financial documents from Room M.” Black’s financial papers — physically stored in Epstein’s island library.

178 documented meetings and phone calls. One Sunday meeting ran from 10am to 5pm — seven hours. Staff asked: “did you want to order lunch?” Real-time arrival alerts: “Leon Black will arrive in 5Minutes!” “Leon Black is here!” Black always went TO Epstein. Never the reverse.

All of this happened at the same address. 9 East 71st Street. Jeffrey Epstein’s New York townhouse.

The seven-hour Sunday meeting. The bank statements and trust documents. The arrival alerts.

The same townhouse where, according to FBI files, three women describe being violently assaulted by Leon Black.

Three victims. Independent. They never met each other. All describe the same thing — the same man, the same townhouse, the same act: a violent biting ritual. Three women, years apart, no contact with each other, each independently describing an identical pattern of sexual violence so specific that the victims’ attorney told the FBI: “There is nothing publicly out there about the details of his specific sex acts with our client, so there is no way she could know.” And: “It is too abnormal to make up.”

Victim 3 was a minor. Introduced to Ghislaine Maxwell at age 17. Her mother was complicit — told her “Leon Black is VIP because he is a special friend of Jeffrey’s.” She kept a journal. A scrapbook. Contemporaneous.

Page 7: “Walk down Madison Avenue to 71st St. Mr. Black is so important for some reason over my health… that fat fuck bit me! He threw me on the floor and blood all over Jeffreys carpet. Leon can go fuck himself.”

She needed medical attention. Bleeding after the assault.

Page 8: a poem. Titled “Leon Black.” Underlined words: birth, cry, fatso millionaire, it’s violent, goddamm baby screaming, bloody baby, your seven chins, still as a ham.

The FBI examined the journal. Gel pen. Paper aging. “No evidence found for recent fabrication.” This is not a lawsuit filing. It is a child’s record of what happened to her.

Page 5: “Both he and Larry Summers are fucking disgusting! Andrew is like his brother in this way!”

Page 11: “Even old senators like George Mitchell who you think would be good like a grandpa are bad.” The same page names Ted Leonsis, Steve Case, Dan Snyder, Jim Kimsey.

Victim 2 had never met Victim 1. Had never spoken to the attorneys. Had no access to the case file. On August 9, 2021, she cold-called the law firm. She said: “Leon Black raped her violently.” She described the identical biting pattern. The identical location. The identical act.

Black paid Victim 1 a total of $1,187,000 between 2012 and 2021. Eight wire transfers. Three progressively obfuscated payment vehicles: first “LEON D BLACK” — his personal name. Then “THE J BLACK TRUST” — a family trust. Then “E TRUST” — an anonymous entity. Each vehicle more anonymous than the last.

June 2023. The subject line of an internal FBI email: “Leon Black/Additional HT Subject Referral — Update.” HT = Human Trafficking. The same month, Black paid a $62.5 million settlement to the U.S. Virgin Islands. The investigation was confirmed still active as of October 16, 2024. FBI New York. Child Exploitation and Human Trafficking unit.

$158,000,000 to Epstein. No contract.
$1,187,000 to a victim. Three trust vehicles.
$62,500,000 to the U.S. Virgin Islands. Settlement.

Total documented outflow connected to Jeffrey Epstein: $221.7 million.

Leon Black told Apollo investors on October 29, 2020: “I deeply regret having had any involvement with Jeffrey Epstein.”

He gave Epstein power of attorney over his bank accounts. His bank statements were FedExed to Epstein’s island. Epstein’s employees filed his taxes. His financial papers were stored in Room M on Little St. James. He met Epstein 178 documented times at the same townhouse where three women describe being assaulted. He paid a victim $1.187 million through three progressively anonymous vehicles. The FBI has an active human trafficking referral with his name on it.

667 DOJ documents. Every quote verbatim.

> Varian’s mother, Claire Deacon, testified that she was against the surgery, but consented out of fear her daughter would commit suicide if she didn’t get it. Einhorn increased that worry, she told the court.

The following thread contains the raw, emotional stories of detransitioners — young people who believed they were being helped, only to realize they were misled by the world’s lies and corrupt system that promised healing.

This isn’t healthcare.
This is regret.

But there’s hope.
Jesus made you with purpose, and He loves you. No matter where you are in your journey, He can set you free. You are not lost.

⬇️ Joshua McParland found his true identity in Christ, hear his profound message:

According to Grok this is the first major malpractice award of its kind, with over 28 other, similar lawsuits currently making their way through the courts.

This could be a watershed verdict, affecting those other cases, and sparking many other lawsuits in the future.

Bankrupting the industry, and making their potential financial liabilities so high, may be the best way to finally turn the tide against this monstrous practice.

February 1, 2026 – Ralph Pezzullo, author of “Stolen Elections: The Takedown of Democracies Worldwide”

(Credit: Amazon)

The Authorized Version: Ripped from the pages of a spy novel, comes a non-fiction account of an international conspiracy against freedom for every current and future American voter. It’s being called the greatest criminal conspiracy in history!

In 2019, two U.S. government whistleblowers investigating the Venezuelan government’s involvement in drug trafficking and money laundering, inadvertently discovered an international conspiracy to influence elections in the United States and in over 70 countries around the world. “Stolen Elections” describes how, according to the whistleblowers, the plot began with help and advice of Fidel Castro to Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, (and his successor Nicolas Maduro) who developed and then rolled out a system of election fraud that was virtually undetectable. It was first used to steal the Venezuelan referendum of 2004, and subsequently penetrated the electoral systems of other Latin American countries, facilitating the elections of a string on left-leaning candidates in their respective countries.

This malware was quickly brought north and deployed across electoral districts throughout the United States in collaboration with election software companies that used variations of the same source code developed in Venezuela and voting machines with parts manufactured in China. The criminal conspiracy that started with Cuba and Venezuela grew to include China, Iran and Serbia – all countries interested in undermining the United States by sowing mistrust and division. “Stolen Elections” describes how the criminal conspirators have been determining the winners of US elections since 2006! What’s more shocking is that this criminal conspiracy avoided detection by America’s over $1 Trillion national security and intelligence apparatus, and for so long. It wasn’t until the two very skilled, determined and courageous government whistleblowers penetrated the conspiracy by recruiting the actual software engineers who designed the system and brought the results of their investigation to the attention of the US Department of Justice and Office of the Director of National Intelligence.

NYT-bestselling author Ralph Pezzullo takes readers through the incredible risks and challenges whistleblowers Martin Rodil and famed, former CIA operations officer Gary Berntsen faced as they conducted their investigation and the initial rejection they faced by members of Congress from both political parties and officials in the FBI and CIA when they first presented the evidence they had collected. “Stolen Elections” lays out the complex corporate front that the criminal conspiracy operated behind; the methods they used to manipulate election results in specific key election districts; and how the whistleblowers and civilian cyber experts finally blocked the criminal conspirators’ efforts to steal the 2024 presidential election. “Stolen Elections” has been called “essential reading for all those who value freedom..”

“In an era where trust in democratic institutions hangs by a thread, [“Stolen Elections”] arrives as a thunderclap…across more than 70 countries including the United States,…t’s a meticulously researched account of software manipulation originating from Venezuela…this is essential reading for anyone valuing freedom in a fragile world.” — Grok

February 2, 2026 – Ben Swann and Liz Crokin: Epstein Is Pizzagate

10 years ago Pizzagate was by far the number one trending topic on twitter, but the claim of pedophile elites who preyed on children was so insane that Pizzagate was shrugged off as was a wild, fever dream, of a conspiracy theory. But then, just days ago… the largest dump of Epstein files revealed what some of us had been telling you for a decade, that Pizzagate is real. Not that there is a pizza parlor at the center of a child trafficking ring. But child trafficking rings run by some of the most powerful people in the world do exist. Tonight , I want to remind you of what I told you then and compare that to what we have now learned.

Discussion begins around 7:00 minutes in.

In January 2017, Ben Swann took a huge risk by reporting on the MSM’s most taboo subject besides Hillary Clinton, pizzagate. Swann is known as one of the only honest journalists in the main stream media.

Shortly after airing his Pizzagate report, CBS46 removed the report from their website and youtube account. Swann’s social media, fundraising and youtube accounts went dark for a period of time.

February 3, 2026 – Mike Benz and Joe Rogan discuss the validity of Pizzagate, and what was determined after looking at the DOJ copies of the Epstein/Pizzagate documents that were recently released.

February 2, 2026 – Another illegal biolab with CCP links is raided by the FBI in Las Vegas

Federal agents with the FBI and the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department executed a dramatic early-morning raid on a residential property in northeast Las Vegas this weekend after investigators uncovered what appears to be a fully operational illegal biological laboratory inside a private home.

Refrigerators containing unknown liquids and vials of suspected biological material were found inside the residence, prompting an aggressive response from HazMat teams, SWAT units, and FBI specialists due to the potential threat presented by the materials, The Hill reported.

At least one individual was taken into custody in connection with the Las Vegas raid, identified by local officials as a 55-year-old property manager, Ori Solomon.

He is currently booked on felony charges linked to the improper disposal of hazardous waste, though investigators continue to determine the full scope of charges that may arise.

Property records reveal that the Las Vegas home is owned by “David Destiny Discovery, LLC,” according to The Sun.

If that name sounds familiar, it should. It is a shell company registered to Jia Bei Zhu (also known as David He), the very same Chinese national who ran the illegal Reedley, California biolab exposed in 2023.

Zhu, a fugitive from Canada with deep ties to the Chinese government, is currently in federal custody.

The FBI has taken the lead in analyzing the more than 1,000 samples collected from the scene, with evidence transported to federal laboratories for further testing. (Read more: The Daily Caller, 2/3/2026)  (Archive)

February 2, 2026 – The Clintons tried to narrow “Epstein-related” questions; bows to the threat of contempt vote

The Clintons tried to narrow “Epstein-related” questions so tightly that Bill Clinton could avoid discussing:

• Epstein
• Ghislaine Maxwell
• Favor-trading
• Media suppression

The Clintons tried to rewrite the rules.

🚨They also asked for:👇🏻

• A voluntary interview instead of sworn testimony
• Withdrawal of the subpoena before testifying
• A pause on contempt proceedings
• A hard 4-hour time limit
• 30-minute alternating question blocks
• A personal transcriber of Clinton’s choosing
• No video recording
• Written statements for Hillary Clinton instead of appearing in person

Congress said no.:
No carve-outs.
No special rules.
No special treatment.

Testify under oath.
Thank you Rep. Comer!

February 2, 2026 – “Compromised” Congressional Commission is undermining Trump’s Ukraine peace efforts, says whistleblower

THREAD, NO KINGS IN THE SENATE?: The Helsinki Commission, the almighty foreign democracy operations arm of Congress

The No Kings crowd marched today against the one branch of government where you can actually see who’s in charge. They should try the Senate.

At 3 AM on Friday, Thune passed a funding bill by voice vote. Funded everything except immigration enforcement. Just completely gave into the Democratic demands.

Inside that Senate sits a body called the Helsinki Commission. No FOIA. No Inspector General. No records retention policy. It operates in permanent darkness, and what’s hiding in there makes the 3 AM vote look transparent.

Look at the two images below.
Left: the booking photo.
Right: the knife Capitol Police seized.

A Helsinki Commission staffer drew this on a Capitol Police officer. March 8, 2019. He was arrested and booked. He was never fired. He was also photographed in Ukrainian military camo at a command post near Bakhmut. Investigators documented $87,400 in cash.

Both parties buried it. The Ryan Routh assassination attempt connection sits in plain sight. The same NGO network running today’s color revolution marches connects to the same Helsinki Commission infrastructure.

Receipts below.

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

Few in Washington, D.C. have been stronger supporters of expanding U.S. support for Ukraine in its war with Russia than Senator Roger Wicker (R-MS), who is the Chairman of the powerful Senate Armed Services Commitee. Last November, he dismissed the Trump administration’s efforts as a “so-called peace plan.” In recent weeks, Wicker has insisted that ”Ukraine should not be forced to give up the sovereign territory it deserves and it currently controls” and repeatedly compared Putin to Hitler. And Wicker said the US must commit to protecting Ukraine “on a permanent basis,” including by giving it “long-range strike capabilities.”

Those positions put Wicker at odds with many experts, the Trump administration, and the Republican Party’s base. Most experts believe any peace agreement will require that Ukraine give up land, and that giving Ukraine longer-range weapons will push the US and Russia closer to nuclear conflict.

Wicker exercises his power as the chairman of a little-known government agency, the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe, commonly known as “the Helsinki Commission.” His Armed Services Chairmanship is one of the most powerful roles in Washington, overseeing top defense nominees and record U.S. military spending, expected to exceed $1 trillion next year.

Steven Schrage, a longtime Republican foreign policy expert, was, along with the Helsinki Commission’s General Counsel, tasked with leading an official investigation of the Commission that began in the Spring of 2023 and ended in March 2024. Schrage says Wicker and his Helsinki Commission have been “compromised” by foreign actors working to undermine Trump Administration officials and trigger a wider U.S. war with Russia.

Steven Schrage, former Deputy Assistant Secretary of State, co-chair of the U.S. delegation to the G8 Anti-Crime and Terrorism Group, and the Scholl Chair in International Business at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS).

Schrage said he decided to speak out now because he fears Congress will increase the Commission’s funding when the House passes its major appropriations bill today, allowing the Commission to operate outside administration oversight after the 2026 midterm elections.

Schrage has provided whistleblower documents (below) related to the investigation to U.S. officials and has urged the Trump administration to immediately open independent investigations by the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), federal counterintelligence, and FARA officials.

“For the first six months after Trump got elected, it looked like the Commission would be quietly wound down due to these reported violations,” said Schrage. “Then the Commission took extraordinary steps to reinstall all the main characters that had been involved in the criminal and national security violations. They are now trying to lock in funding.”

Late last year, Senator Wicker excoriated the Trump administration’s Ukraine-Russia peace proposal and “put restrictions undermining Trump policies, such as blocking troop transfers from Europe,” in the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), Schrage noted.

“It put money in for Ukraine that the administration did not ask for,” said Schrage. “Wicker blocked key appointees to serve with officials driving Trump’s policy and peace initiatives.” (Read more: Public.news, 2/2/2026)  (Archive)

February 3, 2026 – Tulsi Gabbard is mandated to hunt down every last thread of 2020 election fraud

As the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), Tulsi Gabbard leads the U.S. Intelligence Community (IC), which includes 18 agencies and elements responsible for collecting, analyzing, and disseminating intelligence to protect national security. Elections are designated as a subsector of critical infrastructure by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) under Presidential Policy Directive 21 (PPD-21), a 2013 directive that identifies 16 critical infrastructure sectors vital to U.S. security, economy, and public health. This designation, formalized in 2017 following foreign interference attempts in the 2016 election, elevates election systems (such as voter registration databases, voting machines, polling places, and related IT infrastructure) to the same priority level as sectors like energy, transportation, and communications. It enables enhanced federal support, including cybersecurity resources, threat assessments, and coordination to mitigate risks from physical, cyber, or influence-based threats.

Gabbard’s mandate to oversee aspects of election security stems primarily from the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004, which established the DNI position to integrate and coordinate IC efforts. Specifically in the election domain:

  • The ODNI houses the Foreign Malign Influence Center (FMIC), which leads the IC in identifying, assessing, and countering foreign interference in U.S. elections, including cyberattacks, disinformation campaigns, and other malign activities by adversaries like Russia, China, or Iran. This aligns with Executive Order 13848 (2018), which authorizes sanctions and other measures against foreign entities interfering in elections and tasks the DNI with producing assessments of such threats.
  • Within FMIC, the Election Threats Executive (ETE) serves as the IC’s central coordinator for all election security activities, ensuring intelligence sharing with partners like DHS’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the FBI, and state/local election officials.
  • The IC’s role focuses on foreign threats to critical infrastructure, providing intelligence briefings, declassifying assessments for public awareness, and supporting disruption efforts (e.g., diplomatic actions or sanctions). This does not extend to direct administration of elections, which remains a state and local responsibility, but emphasizes protecting election integrity from external exploitation.

In practice, this has involved ODNI collaborating on guidance documents with CISA and the FBI to secure election infrastructure against tactics like AI-driven propaganda or hacking. Recent activities under Gabbard, such as involvement in assessments of past elections and coordination with federal probes into vulnerabilities, reflect an emphasis on ensuring election systems’ resilience as critical infrastructure, though her hands-on role in certain investigations has drawn scrutiny for potentially blurring lines between intelligence oversight and domestic enforcement.

While DHS/CISA leads overall critical infrastructure protection and voluntary assistance to states, the DNI’s intelligence-focused mandate complements this by addressing nation-state threats that could undermine democratic processes. Grok

Holy fucking shit.

Tulsi Gabbard…beautiful, brilliant, unflinching Tulsi…just got handed the keys to the entire intelligence apparatus with a direct mandate to hunt down every last thread of 2020 election fraud.

She’s running point on FBI sweeps in Fulton County, briefing Trump personally, and turning the full weight of the DNI against the sacred cows of the regime’s stolen-election narrative.

And the left is about to implode in the most spectacular psychic collapse we’ve seen since November 2016.

Watch them.

They’re already twitching.

The same people who spent four years screaming “our democracy!!!” while censoring, surveilling, and lawfaring anyone who dared question the count are now going to shriek that Tulsi…former Democrat, combat veteran, anti-war icon…is somehow a “threat to democracy” for… checking the fucking math.

That’s the tell.

That’s the raw, bleeding id of the authoritarian mind exposed: they don’t fear fraud being uncovered; they fear fraud being proven.

Because once the receipts hit daylight, every smug lecture about “baseless claims” becomes a confession.

Every “fortified election” article becomes exhibit A.

Every smug blue-check hallucination about Russian disinformation collapses into the realization that the real disinformation came from them.

They’re going to melt down because Tulsi represents something they can’t compute: a woman who walked away from their cult, kept her integrity, and now wields real power to expose them.

She triggers their deepest insecurity…the knowledge that their moral supremacy is a hollow costume, and someone they once claimed as “one of us” is about to rip it off in front of the world.

So let them scream.

Let them rage.

Let them call her a traitor, a Russian asset, a MAGA cultist.

Every insult is just another frantic attempt to drown out the sound of their own narrative dying.

Tulsi isn’t coming for revenge.

She’s coming for the truth.

And the truth is going to fucking gut them.

I love this woman.

February 3, 2026 – Minneapolis anti-ICE activists create blockades to stop cars and check license plates

Scott Jennings emailed the Minneapolis Police Department about the ICE activists who are creating blockades and stopping cars to run their license plates

The police department confirms they have not made a single arrest for this behavior. Minneapolis PD is letting them do it

“These civilians are setting up blockades. You pull up and they check your license plate. These people aren’t police. They’re not there in any official capacity, but they check your license plate. This is highly illegal.

So I emailed the city of Minneapolis. And I had a simple question. Has anyone been arrested for setting up illegal blockades, for harassing citizens, for apparently having some sort of secret database by which they check whether your license plate belongs to an ICE vehicle

And after some back and forth with the city of Minneapolis, just a moment ago, we got a response from the Minneapolis police. I will read it to you”

“No arrests have been made”

“Why are civilians in Minneapolis, Minnesota, or anywhere else for that matter, allowed to go out into the street, build a barricade, physically stop other citizens, other people from driving their cars, tell them to roll down their window?“

Bill Stevenson, the former husband of Dr. Jill Biden, has been charged with the murder of his current wife, Linda Stevenson, who was found unresponsive in the couple’s Delaware home in December, authorities said Tuesday.

Stevenson, 77, was taken into custody by the New Castle County cops on Monday after a weeks-long investigation into the death of his wife. The case was presented to a grand jury, which handed down a murder indictment, according to a statement from the police department.

The former first lady’s ex was arraigned on a charge of first-degree murder and sent to the Howard Young Correctional Institution after failing to post $500,000 cash bail, cops said. (Read more: Mediaite, 2/3/2026)  (Archive)

February 3, 2026 – Jerry Nadler says people feel justified shooting ICE agents because they’re ‘masked

“But what is really the major problem in this country today is the fascism in our streets,” Nadler said. “The attacks on American citizens by masked hoodlums. If you were attacked by a masked person, you might think you were being kidnapped, you’d be justified in shooting the person to protect yourself, but we see people being shot for what? For driving a car.” ~Jerry Nadler

Jerry Nadler’s latest meltdown? Classic Dem institutional panic as Trump’s ICE finally enforces the law without apology.

He rants about “masked hoodlums” and “thugs” terrorizing citizens, implying people would be “justified in shooting” masked figures coming at them – – then claims it’s about ICE hiding misbehavior with masks and no body cams. Walked it back fast when called out for inciting violence against federal agents.

– Why the hysteria? Nadler’s spent decades swimming in the open-borders swamp: weak enforcement, sanctuary pushes, census games that pad blue seats. Now the mandate flips, agents do their jobs, and his power base feels the heat.

– “Fascism in our streets”? Projection. Real fascism vibes come from Dems who smear law enforcement as “Gestapo” or “thugs” while shielding criminals and obstructing deportations.

– This is escalation: Starts with rhetoric calling ICE rogue/terrorizing, ends with justifying resistance (read: violence). We’ve seen this playbook—riots, attacks on officers, then “mostly peaceful” spin.

They won’t stop. As enforcement ramps, expect more unhinged outbursts from aging swamp creatures like Nadler. The mask is off—literally and figuratively.

America First is winning, and they’re losing their minds.

February 5, 2026 – Antifa terrorist publicly calling for the murder of ICE agents, is arrested in Minneapolis

Kyle Wagner (Credit: public domain)

Self-identified Antifa member Kyle Wagner was arrested today on federal threat and cyberstalking charges following alleged murder and assault threats against ICE, announced United States Attorney Jerome F. Gorgon, Jr. Wagner, 37 of Minneapolis, is expected to make an initial appearance in federal court today.

“This man allegedly doxxed and called for the murder of law enforcement officers, encouraged bloodshed in the streets, and proudly claimed affiliation with the terrorist organization Antifa before going on the run,” said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. “Today’s arrest illustrates that you cannot run, you cannot hide, and you cannot evade our federal agents: if you come for law enforcement, the Trump Administration will come for you.”

“It’s no surprise that an Antifa terrorist is allegedly threatening to kill and assault federal law enforcement officers as they dutifully remove criminal threats from neighborhoods,” said Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche. “After all, this is what Antifa is about, lawlessness and violence. But under the leadership of President Trump and Attorney General Bondi, there is no safe haven for terrorists and no protection from the full weight of justice.

“We know that a ‘worthless man plots evil, and his speech is like a scorching fire.’ And Wagner’s alleged actions were an attempt to spread fire into our peaceful community. That is not going to happen,” said U.S. Attorney Gorgon.

According to the criminal complaint, Wagner has escalated his opposition to ICE operations, including conspiring and threatening to assault federal law enforcement officers in Minneapolis. In January 2026, Wagner repeatedly posted on Facebook and Instagram encouraging his followers to forcibly confront, assault, impede, oppose, and resist federal officers whom he referred to as the “gestapo” and “murderers.”

On January 8, 2026, Wagner posted a video directly threatening ICE agents by stating, “I’ve already bled for this city, I’ve already fought for this city, this is nothing new, we’re ready this time, ICE we’re f—ing coming for you.” The following day, Wagner posted about the “constant harassment of ICE” and said that “we need to continue that, but we also need to cripple them.” Wagner then advocated for physical confrontation, stating, “Anywhere we have an opportunity to get our hands on them, we need to put our hands on them.”

Wagner also urged others to “hunt” ICE, including those who are “armed” to “fight [ICE]. This is kill or be killed.” He described agitators’ “goal [ ] to unmask and identify [ICE] agents – stop their ability to arrest individuals through group resistance.” On January 10, 2026, Wagner asserted that “we are at f—– war” and stated, “So, either we’re going to win, or I will die in this process.” On January 13, 2026, Wagner praised the success of the agitators’ anti-ICE efforts, stating, “This is where ICE has come to die” and then threatened ICE agents, “We want to know who they are. We will identify every single one of them and we will prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law. If it has to be done at the barrel of a gun, then let us have a little f—— fun.”

On January 24, 2026, Wagner stated that he was “not talking about peaceful protests anymore.” And urged violence against federal officers: “Get your f—– guns and stop these f—— people.” Wagner also reposted a video where he passed out gas masks and shields to agitators.

The complaint further alleges that on January 29, 2026, Wagner, used his Instagram account to dox a pro-ICE individual by publishing a phone number, birth month and year, and address in Oak Park, Michigan, threatening the individual. Wagner later admitted that he doxxed the victim’s parents’ house.

A complaint is only a charge and is not evidence of guilt.  The defendant is presumed innocent.  As a felony trial cannot be held on a complaint, a decision to seek an indictment will be made in the near future.

The case was investigated by the agents of Immigration and Customs Enforcement Homeland Security Investigations.

This case is part of Operation Take Back America, a nationwide initiative that marshals the full resources of the Department of Justice to repel the invasion of illegal immigration, achieve the total elimination of cartels and transnational criminal organizations (TCOs), and protect our communities from the perpetrators of violent crime.

February 5, 2026 – Nick Shirley says “death hits” have been placed on his life

Nick Shirley sits down with Fox and says he’s becoming fearful for his safety

He says actual death “hits” have been placed on his life

“Our second day at the hotel they said that we needed to move hotels because it was our word was out as to where we were staying and we were told by the security that Nick was the number one man. Like they had a hit on you is what they said. So it was very frustrating It was frightening. It was very frightening”

“Lots of death threats. I mean, people have sent me photos of people in ditches saying that this is going to be you, and people have openly said that if you see Nick Shirley tell him to kill himself.”

February 7, 2026 – ODNI Tulsi Gabbard: Senator Mark Warner and his friends in the propaganda media have repeatedly lied to the American people

Senator Mark Warner and his friends in the Propaganda Media have repeatedly lied to the American people that I or the ODNI “hid” a whistleblower complaint in a safe for eight months. This is a blatant lie.

The truth:

– I am not now, nor have I ever been, in possession or control of the Whistleblower’s complaint, so I obviously could not have “hidden” it in a safe. Biden-era IC Inspector General Tamara Johnson was in possession of and responsible for securing the complaint for months.

– The first time I saw the whistleblower complaint was 2 weeks ago when I had to review it to provide guidance on how it should be securely shared with Congress.

– As Vice Chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Senator Warner knows very well that whistleblower complaints that contain highly classified and compartmented intelligence—even if they contain baseless allegations like this one—must be secured in a safe, which the Biden-era Inspector General Tamara Johnson did and her successor, Inspector General Chris Fox, continued to do. After IC Inspector General Fox hand-delivered the complaint to the Gang of 8, the complaint was returned to a safe where it remains, consistent with any information of such sensitivity.

– Either Senator Warner knows these facts and is intentionally lying to the American people, or he doesn’t have a clue how these things work and is therefore not qualified to be in the U.S. Senate—and certainly not the Vice Chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee.

Here is a detailed chronology of the situation:

– June 2025, I became aware that a whistleblower made a complaint against me that after further investigation, neither Biden-era IC Inspector General Tamara Johnson nor current IC Inspector General Chris Fox found the complaint to be credible.

– The complaint required special handling and storage in a safe because the complainant chose to include highly sensitive information within the complaint itself rather than referencing the sensitive reporting and leaving the complaint at a lower level of classification.

– Security standards for complaints that include such sensitive intelligence required the Inspector General to keep the complaint and the intelligence referenced secured in a safe from the time the complaint was made, until now.

– In June 2025 after Biden-era Inspector General Tamara Johnson completed her review of the complaint, no further oversight or investigative activity took place.

– Biden-era Inspector General Johnson had communicated with me directly throughout the course of her investigation into this complaint, yet neither she nor anyone from her office informed me that the Whistleblower chose to send the complaint to Congress which would require me to issue security instructions.

– When a complaint is not found to be credible, there is no timeline under the law for the provision of security guidance. The “21 day” requirement that Senator Warner alleges I did not comply with, only applies when a complaint is determined by the Inspector General to be both urgent AND apparently credible. That was NOT the case here.

– I was made aware of the need to provide security guidance by IC Inspector General Chris Fox on December 4, 2025, which he detailed in his letter to Congress.

– I took immediate action to provide the security guidance to the Intelligence Community Inspector General who then shared the complaint and referenced intelligence with relevant members of Congress last week.

Senator Warner’s decision to spread lies and baseless accusations over the months for political gain, undermines our national security and is a disservice to the American people and the Intelligence Community.

Rep. Abigail Spanberger calls Tulsi Gabbard a “conspiracy theorist” as she goes on Jen Psaki’s show to push her own conspiracy theory: The completely baseless, evidence-free insinuation that Tulsi is a “Russian asset.”

She says Tulsi is “dangerous,” when Rep. Spanberger is the one who has backed every reckless escalation of the Ukraine War — and has called for even more — hurting our own readiness while raising the risk of nuclear war.

Spanberger claims a serving Army Reservist who served on the Armed Services and Foreign Affairs committees can’t be trusted, when she herself is a former CIA agent, a veteran of the most consistently incompetent, untrustworthy, paranoid, failed agency in the American government. Spanberger’s colleagues are the ones who got us into Iraq, believed the Russia hoax, and called the Biden laptop fake. Spanberger herself spread outrageous lies from our “intel community,” like the bogus claim that Russia put bounties on U.S. soldiers.

People like Spanberger are exactly why Americans despise and distrust the intelligence agencies that are suppose to serve them — and why we need Tulsi Gabbard to reform them.

February 9, 2026 – Trump points to missing items, including nearly 50 boxes of election records, from the FBI’s Fulton County raid

February 9, 2026 – Newly released FBI 302 documents state Trump was a whistleblower for Epstein FBI investigation in 2006

President Donald Trump dismissed sex offender Jeffrey Epstein as “disgusting” and decried his procurer, Ghislaine Maxwell as “evil” back in 2006, a now-retired cop informed FBI agents in 2019. The revelation is contained in a newly unsealed court document released Monday by the Department of Justice.

CNBC reports Trump personally called the then-Palm Beach Police Chief Michael Reiter “to tell him ‘thank goodness you’ [are] stopping [Epstein], everyone has known he’s been doing this,” Reiter told the FBI in October 2019, according to the FBI document, known as a 302.

The document stated whistleblower Trump “was one of the very first people to call” the police when word spread Epstein was under investigation.

This simple fact defies the president’s opponents who have since spread lies and falsehoods about his relationship with Epstein and convicted associate Maxwell.

Trump said in the call he distanced himself from Epstein, according to the document, claiming he “got the hell out of there” when around Epstein with teenagers present.

The outlet notes, “Reiter’s name is redacted from the 302. But the document identifies the interview subject as the person who had been Palm Beach’s police chief at the time of the department’s investigation of Epstein, who was Reiter.”

Reiter told the Miami Herald, which first reported the document, Trump called him in 2006, after the police department’s probe of Epstein became publicly known.

Trump told Reiter he had thrown Epstein out of his club, Mar-a-Lago, which is located in Palm Beach, the summary said. (Read more: Breitbart, 2/10/2026) (Archive)

February 10, 2026 – Oregon teen is arrested for plotting to behead Portland ICE agents

New: An Oregon teen has been arrested for plotting to kill ICE agents in Portland.

Rayden Tanner Coleman, 18, of St. Helens, devised a plan that included following agents home, severing their heads, and taking them as trophies.

Investigators found him in possession of Molotov cocktails, surveillance equipment, tactical axes, military knives, and shovels. Coleman had also been making payments for an AR-15, according to court documents.

His roommates said that Coleman tried to recruit them to kill ICE agents and attempted to talk him out of it, but his extremism grew. They warned police about the death plot, resulting in Coleman’s arrest.

Coleman, who shared his plans on Discord, admitted to the plot while under interrogation, per charging documents.

He reportedly told his roommates that he needed to kill ICE agents to prevent them from “kidnapping” people.

February 10, 2026 – Democrats want ‘sanctuary locations’ for illegal aliens at polling places

Senator John Barrasso of Wyoming, the Senate Majority Whip, recently revealed that among the many insane demands being made by Democrats right now, is the demand for ‘sanctuary locations’ at polling places.

Barrasso rightly asks why this is needed if it is against the law for illegal aliens to vote. They’re not voting, right? So why is this necessary?

Democrats are really letting the truth just hang out here, aren’t they?

Breitbart News has details:

During remarks on the Senate floor Tuesday, Barrasso highlighted the Democrats’ “Christmas list of demands” they are fighting for instead of agreeing to enforce immigration law and avoiding another partial government shutdown.

“Democrats have come up with a Christmas list of demands, demands designed to appeal to their radical base. This growing list of Democrat demands makes it almost impossible to remove dangerous illegal immigrants from the streets of our nation,” the senator said. “Democrats are resisting even the most reasonable attempts to enforce our immigration laws.”…

According to Barrasso, “The more we learn about the demands coming from the minority leader and that party, the less the normal American citizen likes them — and that’s especially if you are concerned about any safety or any security in the community in which you live.”

“The Democrats continually want to make it harder to arrest and remove illegal immigrant criminals,” he continued…

“The so-called ‘sensitive location’ defined by the Democrats — in the past it included places of worship, hospitals, schools, now they want to include in that list — polling places,” he continued. “Well, think about that. It’s an entirely new provision. Polling places have never been included on any list like this before.”

Hours before banging the gavel to commence a hearing Tuesday to investigate the dynamic of “malign foreign influence,” House Committee on Ways and Means Chair Jason Smith escalated his investigation into the China-based, American-born Marxist tech tycoon, Neville Roy Singham, who has allegedly been “sowing chaos and spreading Chinese propaganda, possibly in coordination with a foreign government.”

Fox News Digital has obtained copies of letters that Smith sent on Monday night to two U.S. nonprofits – BreakThrough BT Media Inc. and Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research – demanding records of their ties to Singham and alleging they are promoting propaganda aligned with the Chinese Communist Party.

At 10 a.m. on Tuesday [2/10/26], Smith will chair a hearing called, “Foreign Influence in American Non-profits: Unmasking Threats from Beijing and Beyond.” The hearing will be broadcast online at the committee’s website. Singham, Tricontinental and BreakThrough BT Media, which publishes articles as “BreakThrough News,” didn’t respond to requests for comment.

Congressional investigators say the Singham network sits at the center of a malign foreign influence operation that allegedly exploits U.S. nonprofit laws to inject anti-American propaganda into domestic protest movements and sow discord from within the United States.

In separate letters, Smith demanded records from BreakThrough and Tricontinental, warning that both tax-exempt organizations may be operating outside their lawful purpose as possible unregistered foreign agents, while helping to fuel domestic unrest under the guise of journalism and academic research.

February 11, 2026 – Judicial disparity is exposed: 90% of 2020 BLM/Antifa rioters were not prosecuted, but 84.6% of J6 rioters were convicted and jailed

Throughout the 2020 BLM summer riots, multiple federal buildings were seized or burned down, dozens of people were killed, hundreds of police officers injured, and billions lost in damages.

(…) An FBI memo reported on by Just the News earlier this week shows the bureau’s Boston office led a tabletop exercise and culled open-source intelligence on the potential for violence from both left-leaning anarchists to right-leaning extremists. It recommended relying on undercover informants and aggressive prosecutions for minor crimes to keep tabs on potentially violent groups and deter them.

90% of 2020 BLM protesters were not jailed, but 84.6% of J6 rioters convicted

The document raises new questions for congressional investigators about why the bureau failed to heed its own warnings ahead of the Capitol riot and whether it provides further evidence there was a double standard in federal prosecutions.

News outlets have reported for years on the fact that a vast majority of cases against protesters who broke the law during the fiery and violent summer of 2020 were dropped, especially by localities. A 2021 analysis from The Guardian found that this happened in about 90% of cases across a dozen U.S. jurisdictions that experienced protests.

In Houston, one of the epicenters of protests in Texas, about 93% of all charges brought were dropped, The Guardian reported. This is despite the fact that the demonstrators blocked a federal highway, threw objects at police officers, and damaged buildings. Eight officers were also injured. In Philadelphia, where protesters smashed windows, looted stores, and set fire to police cars, at least 95% of the arrests resulted in no prosecutions or dropped charges.

Many of these cases were handled by local prosecutors. In the more than 300 federal cases brought against those involved in the protests, fewer than half pleaded guilty or were convicted at trial, the Associated Press found.

Conversely, more than 1,500 individuals were arrested in connection with the Capitol riot, resulting in 1,270 total convictions–making that outcome about 80% of the cases–on the eve of President Donald Trump’s sweeping pardon last year. That comes out to about 86%.

Federal prosecutors also used a controversial statute that allowed them to prosecute some of those who were charged with obstructing an official proceeding for interrupting the Jan. 6 congressional certification of the electoral college vote. The statute was also used in some of the charges levied against President Trump by Special Counsel Jack Smith in his case arguing Trump was directly responsible for the violence that day.

That interpretation of the statute, which Republicans often pointed to as evidence of the double standard of aggressive prosecutions, was eventually struck down by the Supreme Court in June 2024. The high court ruled that the law only applied when a defendant prevented the use of “records, documents, objects, or other things used in an official proceeding.”

February 11, 2026 – State Department says far left group ‘Code Pink’ is linked to the Chinese Communist Party

On February 28, 2023, at a U.S. House of Representatives Special Committee on Strategic Competition between the United States and China, “Code Pink” members appeared in quick succession to interrupt the witness statement. (Credit: Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images)

The State Department has just reported to Congress that the far left group ‘Code Pink’ is linked to the Chinese Communist Party. This should come as a surprise to no one.

Code Pink began making a nuisance of themselves during the presidency of George W. Bush. They portrayed themselves as an anti-war group. Of course, once Obama became president and continued most of Bush’s foreign policy and the wars, they became curiously silent. Some of them were even guests at Obama’s inauguration.

Now that Trump, a Republican, is president again, they are back to their old tactics of showing up in places where they were not invited and being generally annoying.

This move by the State Department has the potential to change the game.

The New York Post reports:

State Department identifies Code Pink and other far-left groups as vectors of Chinese influence operations

The State Department transmitted a report to Congress Tuesday linking lefty nonprofits Code Pink and the People’s Forum to Chinese influence operations.

“Partisan hacks spent years peddling the phony Russia collusion hoax while turning a blind eye to the sprawling web of far-left activist organizations who push the agendas of the Chinese Communist Party,” Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy Sarah Rogers said in a statement provided to The Post.

“Organizations like Code Pink and the People’s Forum denigrate the United States, whitewash the violence of Marxist regimes, and run cover for China while enjoying an influx of cash from a donor network with connections to the Chinese Communist Party,” Rogers added.

“The State Department will pursue complete transparency for the donor and NGO networks that lobby for our adversaries and seek to weaken the resolve of the United States.”

The report on “Countering Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference” alleges that China “spreads propaganda through influence campaigns run by nonprofit organizations like Code Pink, the People’s Forum and groups linked with the notorious Singham network.”

This has been a long time coming.

February 11, 2026 – State Department calls the UK-based Center for Countering Digital Hate ‘a key collaborator’ with the Biden administration to censor U.S. citizens

1/7 🚨 BREAKING: The U.S. State Department just filed a sworn record in federal court calling the UK-based Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) and its CEO Imran Ahmed ‘a key collaborator with the Biden administration on weaponizing the national security bureaucracy to censor U.S. citizens.'”

Not our words. The government’s.

Certified under penalty of perjury. Signed by Secretary Rubio personally.

Here’s what this means for every American. 🧵👇

2/7 For 4 years they told us nobody coordinated anything.

The government was “just sharing views.” The platforms were “just enforcing policies.” CCDH was “just publishing reports.”

3 weeks ago, CCDH told a Florida court it never even COMMUNICATED with the White House.

21 days later, the State Dept called its CEO a “key collaborator.”

Both are now in the federal record. Only one can be true.

🔥 See it for yourself — what they told the court vs. what the government found:

***

3/7 CCDH’s own leaked internal docs listed their priorities:

☠️ “Kill Musk’s Twitter” 🇪🇺 “Trigger EU and UK regulatory action”

These aren’t the words of a “watchdog.” They’re the objectives of a foreign organization running what its own staff called “black ops” against Americans.

And the State Dept confirmed they SUCCEEDED.

Read @thackerpd and @mtaibbi’s original reporting on CCDH’s leaked memo and election interference: https://disinformationchronicle.substack.com/p/election-exclusive-british-advisors

4/7 Their targets included RFK Jr. — now the Secretary of HHS. @SecKennedy @RobertKennedyJr

CCDH ran “black ops” to deplatform him. They lobbied Google to demonetize American media. They pressured every major platform to silence the people in his orbit — during the exact period he was building a political movement.

That’s not content moderation. That’s ELECTION INTERFERENCE by a foreign NGO.‼️

***

5/7 Remember Murthy v. Missouri? The Supreme Court said those plaintiffs couldn’t prove the specific chain from government → platform → their injuries.

Our case — Finn v. Global Engagement Center — was built to fix that. https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.flmd.441979/gov.uscourts.flmd.441979.83.0.pdf

Our names were on the list. The government cited the list. The platforms acted on the list.

🚨Now the State Dept’s own sworn record confirms the chain. This is the case Murthy couldn’t be.

6/7 CCDH’s CEO accused us of “profiting from causing death.” He also encouraged comparisons of the “disinformation dozen” to sexual predators, mass murders and a criminal network under Parliamentary privilege: https://sayerji.substack.com/p/when-parliament-becomes-a-weapon?utm_source=publication-search

He never retracted it. Never substantiated it. Never corrected it.

Instead he REPEATED it in a second federal court filing — while telling a different court it was just “publication of reports.”

The State Dept says he “successfully led efforts to lobby” and “pressure U.S. companies to restrict speech.”

That’s not publishing. That’s an operation.

***

7/7 We are 6 people and a volunteer legal team against Google, Meta, CCDH, and the federal government.

If we win, the precedent protects EVERY American from government-coordinated censorship.

If we lose, the blueprint survives for the next crisis and the next inconvenient voices.

February 12, 2026 – Black Americans expose Democrat party’s true racist history in viral social media movement

Nicki Minaj’s recent embrace of President Donald Trump, including her support for voter ID laws and public praise for the president, is now sparking a fresh wave of political reaction online with some fans saying they are leaving the Democratic Party and aligning with Republicans.

The fan posts, first reported by Newsweek on Saturday, surfaced after a week of heightened attention around Minaj’s political comments.

Several self-identified fans, often known as the “Barbz,” said on X that Minaj’s stance had influenced their own political thinking.

One fan wrote on X, “Today is the day I switch to republican,” in a post that had been viewed more than 300,000 times. The user later wrote in replies that they had never voted before but planned to do so.

A third account wrote, “MAGA BARBZ IT IS I will never vote dem again!!” in a post that drew more than 70,000 views.

The online reaction follows a series of political statements and public appearances by Minaj over the past week that drew widespread attention. Earlier this month, the rapper voiced support for voter ID laws in a post on X, questioning why the issue remains a subject of debate in the U.S. The comments drew praise from Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla. (Read more: Fox News, 2/7/2026)  (Archive)

EXPLOSIVE: Black Americans EXPOSE Democrat Party’s True History in Viral Social Media Movement

Something remarkable is happening across social media that has the Democratic establishment in full panic mode. Black Americans are looking directly into cameras and exposing the truth about which party actually fought for their freedom throughout history – and the receipts are undeniable.

Replying to @Kim Andreson HARRIET TOO 😳 #fyp #conservative #blackhistory #america #politics

The videos are going viral faster than the mainstream media can suppress them. These aren’t Republican talking points or conservative spin. These are foundational Black Americans examining their own history and drawing their own powerful conclusions about decades of political deception.

The Constitutional Receipts Don’t Lie

The facts speak for themselves, and they’re damning for Democrats. The Thirteenth Amendment abolishing slavery? It received 100 percent Republican support and just 23 percent from Democrats. The Fifteenth Amendment guaranteeing voting rights for all Americans? Again, 100 percent Republican support and zero percent from Democrats.

Here’s the kicker that really exposes the lie: The Republican Party was founded in 1854 in a Wisconsin schoolhouse with one explicit purpose – stopping Democrats from expanding slavery. Yet somehow, through decades of propaganda and media manipulation, the Democratic Party convinced entire communities to forget who actually stood beside them during America’s darkest chapters.

February 12, 2026 – Cartels doxx ICE Director Todd Lyons — Post home floorplans, video of wife walking to work in chilling threat campaign

On Thursday, the Senate Homeland Security Committee heard testimony from the leaders of ICE and the U.S. Customs & Border Protection agency. Minnesota officials also gave testimony.

Todd M. Lyons is the senior official performing the duties of the Director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). His testimony about the threats to his family and other agents is stunning.

After 9/11, Mr. Lyons returned to active duty with Special Operations Command, antiterrorism & force protection. His written opening statement is here, and his impressive career bio is here.

With deep concerns about the doxxing of law enforcement, Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) directed questions to Director Lyons. Mr. Lyons explains that videos of his wife walking to work have been posted online. The cartels have posted the schematics (floorplans) of his home online too.

Senator Johnson explained that cartels use similar tactics in Central America, to intimidate Police Chiefs.

February 14, 2026 – Hillary Clinton admits mass migration has been “destabilizing” to society; Barack Obama admits we are a nation of laws with borders

For years now, the left has treated mass migration as this moral, beautiful thing. And if you questioned it, that meant you were some heartless, xenophobic, or stuck in some outdated nationalist fantasy loop. Borders were sold as cruel, enforcement (ICE) was framed as oppression, and “diversity is our strength” wasn’t just a slogan; it was a cult.

Now suddenly, two of the most powerful Dems in modern politics are singing a very different tune.

And no, this isn’t some off-the-cuff, confusing comment from a second-string nobody. This is Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. When those two start shifting the message in a big way, there’s trouble afoot.

If you have even a very basic understanding of how politics works, you can see what’s going on here. Internal polling must be absolutely catastrophic. Literally catastrophic. Because you don’t reverse course like this unless the data is a bloody crime scene.

Hillary Clinton, a tried and true globalist, has just flipped the script.

And then came Barry, reinforcing the same message, but in regard to borders and immigration… same overall tone and direction.

That’s a full-scale rebrand… or an attempt at it.

When Hillary Clinton says mass migration has been destabilizing and went too far, and Barack Obama says we are a nation of laws with borders that must be orderly and fair, that is a direct slap in the face to the violent activist soldiers that have dominated the party’s messaging for years.

February 14, 2026 – Secretary of State Marco Rubio gives critically important speech to Munich Security Conference

Overnight in the USA time zones, Secretary of State Marco Rubio delivered a very important speech at the Munich Security Conference [3:00am ET].  The video is below [prompted] and a FULL transcription added below:

This is a critically worded speech that is very important to listen to with great deliberation.  Within his remarks Rubio is telling Europe that we want to remain allied in our interests, but we are no longer going to allow the system of “globalism” to destroy our uniquely American life.

The United States is separating from the madness; this is not up for debate. The only question is whether Europe is too far gone, or whether they will join us.

The euphoria that followed the collapse of the Berlin Wall, “led us to a dangerous delusion.  That we had entered quote the end of history. That every nation would now be a liberal democracy; that the ties formed by trade and by commerce alone would now replace nationhood. That the rules-based global order, an overused term, would now replace the national interest, and that we would now live in a world without borders where everyone became a citizen of the world. This was a foolish idea that ignored both human nature and it ignored the lessons of over 5,000 years of recorded human history, and it has cost us dearly.” 

(Transcript)

SECRETARY RUBIO: “Thank you very much. We gather here today as members of a historic alliance, an alliance that saved and changed the world. When this conference began in 1963, it was in a nation – actually, it was on a continent – that was divided against itself. The line between communism and freedom ran through the heart of Germany. The first barbed fences of the Berlin Wall had gone up just two years prior.

And just months before that first conference, before our predecessors first met here, here in Munich, the Cuban Missile Crisis had brought the world to the brink of nuclear destruction. Even as World War II still burned fresh in the memory of Americans and Europeans alike, we found ourselves staring down the barrel of a new global catastrophe – one with the potential for a new kind of destruction, more apocalyptic and final than anything before in the history of mankind.

At the time of that first gathering, Soviet communism was on the march. Thousands of years of Western civilization hung in the balance. At that time, victory was far from certain. But we were driven by a common purpose. We were unified not just by what we were fighting against; we were unified by what we were fighting for. And together, Europe and America prevailed and a continent was rebuilt. Our people prospered. In time, the East and West blocs were reunited. A civilization was once again made whole. ”

“That infamous wall that had cleaved this nation into two came down, and with it an evil empire, and the East and West became one again. But the euphoria of this triumph led us to a dangerous delusion: that we had entered, quote, “the end of history;” that every nation would now be a liberal democracy; that the ties formed by trade and by commerce alone would now replace nationhood; that the rules-based global order – an overused term – would now replace the national interest; and that we would now live in a world without borders where everyone became a citizen of the world.

This was a foolish idea that ignored both human nature and it ignored the lessons of over 5,000 years of recorded human history. And it has cost us dearly. In this delusion, we embraced a dogmatic vision of free and unfettered trade, even as some nations protected their economies and subsidized their companies to systematically undercut ours – shuttering our plants, resulting in large parts of our societies being deindustrialized, shipping millions of working and middle-class jobs overseas, and handing control of our critical supply chains to both adversaries and rivals.

We increasingly outsourced our sovereignty to international institutions while many nations invested in massive welfare states at the cost of maintaining the ability to defend themselves. This, even as other countries have invested in the most rapid military buildup in all of human history and have not hesitated to use hard power to pursue their own interests. To appease a climate cult, we have imposed energy policies on ourselves that are impoverishing our people, even as our competitors exploit oil and coal and natural gas and anything else – not just to power their economies, but to use as leverage against our own.

And in a pursuit of a world without borders, we opened our doors to an unprecedented wave of mass migration that threatens the cohesion of our societies, the continuity of our culture, and the future of our people. We made these mistakes together, and now, together, we owe it to our people to face those facts and to move forward, to rebuild.

Under President Trump, the United States of America will once again take on the task of renewal and restoration, driven by a vision of a future as proud, as sovereign, and as vital as our civilization’s past. And while we are prepared, if necessary, to do this alone, it is our preference and it is our hope to do this together with you, our friends here in Europe.

For the United States and Europe, we belong together. America was founded 250 years ago, but the roots began here on this continent long before. The man who settled and built the nation of my birth arrived on our shores carrying the memories and the traditions and the Christian faith of their ancestors as a sacred inheritance, an unbreakable link between the old world and the new.

We are part of one civilization – Western civilization. We are bound to one another by the deepest bonds that nations could share, forged by centuries of shared history, Christian faith, culture, heritage, language, ancestry, and the sacrifices our forefathers made together for the common civilization to which we have fallen heir.

And so this is why we Americans may sometimes come off as a little direct and urgent in our counsel. This is why President Trump demands seriousness and reciprocity from our friends here in Europe. The reason why, my friends, is because we care deeply. We care deeply about your future and ours. And if at times we disagree, our disagreements come from our profound sense of concern about a Europe with which we are connected – not just economically, not just militarily. We are connected spiritually and we are connected culturally. We want Europe to be strong. We believe that Europe must survive, because the two great wars of the last century serve for us as history’s constant reminder that ultimately, our destiny is and will always be intertwined with yours, because we know – (applause) – because we know that the fate of Europe will never be irrelevant to our own.

National security, which this conference is largely about, is not merely series of technical questions – how much we spend on defense or where, how we deploy it, these are important questions. They are. But they are not the fundamental one. The fundamental question we must answer at the outset is what exactly are we defending, because armies do not fight for abstractions. Armies fight for a people; armies fight for a nation. Armies fight for a way of life. And that is what we are defending: a great civilization that has every reason to be proud of its history, confident of its future, and aims to always be the master of its own economic and political destiny.

It was here in Europe where the ideas that planted the seeds of liberty that changed the world were born. It was here in Europe where the world – which gave the world the rule of law, the universities, and the scientific revolution. It was this continent that produced the genius of Mozart and Beethoven, of Dante and Shakespeare, of Michelangelo and Da Vinci, of the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. And this is the place where the vaulted ceilings of the Sistine Chapel and the towering spires of the great cathedral in Cologne, they testify not just to the greatness of our past or to a faith in God that inspired these marvels. They foreshadow the wonders that await us in our future. But only if we are unapologetic in our heritage and proud of this common inheritance can we together begin the work of envisioning and shaping our economic and our political future.

Deindustrialization was not inevitable. It was a conscious policy choice, a decades-long economic undertaking that stripped our nations of their wealth, of their productive capacity, and of their independence. And the loss of our supply chain sovereignty was not a function of a prosperous and healthy system of global trade. It was foolish. It was a foolish but voluntary transformation of our economy that left us dependent on others for our needs and dangerously vulnerable to crisis.

Mass migration is not, was not, isn’t some fringe concern of little consequence. It was and continues to be a crisis which is transforming and destabilizing societies all across the West. Together we can reindustrialize our economies and rebuild our capacity to defend our people. But the work of this new alliance should not be focused just on military cooperation and reclaiming the industries of the past. It should also be focused on, together, advancing our mutual interests and new frontiers, unshackling our ingenuity, our creativity, and the dynamic spirit to build a new Western century. Commercial space travel and cutting-edge artificial intelligence; industrial automation and flex manufacturing; creating a Western supply chain for critical minerals not vulnerable to extortion from other powers; and a unified effort to compete for market share in the economies of the Global South. Together we can not only take back control of our own industries and supply chains – we can prosper in the areas that will define the 21st century.

But we must also gain control of our national borders. Controlling who and how many people enter our countries, this is not an expression of xenophobia. It is not hate. It is a fundamental act of national sovereignty. And the failure to do so is not just an abdication of one of our most basic duties owed to our people. It is an urgent threat to the fabric of our societies and the survival of our civilization itself.

And finally, we can no longer place the so-called global order above the vital interests of our people and our nations. We do not need to abandon the system of international cooperation we authored, and we don’t need to dismantle the global institutions of the old order that together we built. But these must be reformed. These must be rebuilt.

For example, the United Nations still has tremendous potential to be a tool for good in the world. But we cannot ignore that today, on the most pressing matters before us, it has no answers and has played virtually no role. It could not solve the war in Gaza. Instead, it was American leadership that freed captives from barbarians and brought about a fragile truce. It had not solved the war in Ukraine. It took American leadership and partnership with many of the countries here today just to bring the two sides to the table in search of a still-elusive peace.

It was powerless to constrain the nuclear program of radical Shia clerics in Tehran. That required 14 bombs dropped with precision from American B-2 bombers. And it was unable to address the threat to our security from a narcoterrorist dictator in Venezuela. Instead, it took American Special Forces to bring this fugitive to justice.

In a perfect world, all of these problems and more would be solved by diplomats and strongly worded resolutions. But we do not live in a perfect world, and we cannot continue to allow those who blatantly and openly threaten our citizens and endanger our global stability to shield themselves behind abstractions of international law which they themselves routinely violate.

This is the path that President Trump and the United States has embarked upon. It is the path we ask you here in Europe to join us on. It is a path we have walked together before and hope to walk together again. For five centuries, before the end of the Second World War, the West had been expanding – its missionaries, its pilgrims, its soldiers, its explorers pouring out from its shores to cross oceans, settle new continents, build vast empires extending out across the globe.

But in 1945, for the first time since the age of Columbus, it was contracting. Europe was in ruins. Half of it lived behind an Iron Curtain and the rest looked like it would soon follow. The great Western empires had entered into terminal decline, accelerated by godless communist revolutions and by anti-colonial uprisings that would transform the world and drape the red hammer and sickle across vast swaths of the map in the years to come.

Against that backdrop, then, as now, many came to believe that the West’s age of dominance had come to an end and that our future was destined to be a faint and feeble echo of our past. But together, our predecessors recognized that decline was a choice, and it was a choice they refused to make. This is what we did together once before, and this is what President Trump and the United States want to do again now, together with you.

And this is why we do not want our allies to be weak, because that makes us weaker. We want allies who can defend themselves so that no adversary will ever be tempted to test our collective strength. This is why we do not want our allies to be shackled by guilt and shame. We want allies who are proud of their culture and of their heritage, who understand that we are heirs to the same great and noble civilization, and who, together with us, are willing and able to defend it.

And this is why we do not want allies to rationalize the broken status quo rather than reckon with what is necessary to fix it, for we in America have no interest in being polite and orderly caretakers of the West’s managed decline. We do not seek to separate, but to revitalize an old friendship and renew the greatest civilization in human history. What we want is a reinvigorated alliance that recognizes that what has ailed our societies is not just a set of bad policies but a malaise of hopelessness and complacency. An alliance – the alliance that we want is one that is not paralyzed into inaction by fear – fear of climate change, fear of war, fear of technology. Instead, we want an alliance that boldly races into the future. And the only fear we have is the fear of the shame of not leaving our nations prouder, stronger, and wealthier for our children.

An alliance ready to defend our people, to safeguard our interests, and to preserve the freedom of action that allows us to shape our own destiny – not one that exists to operate a global welfare state and atone for the purported sins of past generations. An alliance that does not allow its power to be outsourced, constrained, or subordinated to systems beyond its control; one that does not depend on others for the critical necessities of its national life; and one that does not maintain the polite pretense that our way of life is just one among many and that asks for permission before it acts. And above all, an alliance based on the recognition that we, the West, have inherited together – what we have inherited together is something that is unique and distinctive and irreplaceable, because this, after all, is the very foundation of the transatlantic bond.

Acting together in this way, we will not just help recover a sane foreign policy. It will restore to us a clearer sense of ourselves. It will restore a place in the world, and in so doing, it will rebuke and deter the forces of civilizational erasure that today menace both America and Europe alike.

So in a time of headlines heralding the end of the transatlantic era, let it be known and clear to all that this is neither our goal nor our wish – because for us Americans, our home may be in the Western Hemisphere, but we will always be a child of Europe. (Applause.)

Our story began with an Italian explorer whose adventure into the great unknown to discover a new world brought Christianity to the Americas – and became the legend that defined the imagination of a our pioneer nation.

Our first colonies were built by English settlers, to whom we owe not just the language we speak but the whole of our political and legal system. Our frontiers were shaped by Scots-Irish – that proud, hearty clan from the hills of Ulster that gave us Davy Crockett and Mark Twain and Teddy Roosevelt and Neil Armonstrong.

Our great midwestern heartland was built by German farmers and craftsmen who transformed empty plains into a global agricultural powerhouse – and by the way, dramatically upgraded the quality of American beer. (Laughter.)

Our expansion into the interior followed the footsteps of French fur traders and explorers whose names, by the way, still adorn the street signs and towns’ names all across the Mississippi Valley. Our horses, our ranches, our rodeos – the entire romance of the cowboy archetype that became synonymous with the American West – these were born in Spain. And our largest and most iconic city was named New Amsterdam before it was named New York.

And do you know that in the year that my country was founded, Lorenzo and Catalina Geroldi lived in Casale Monferrato in the Kingdom of Piedmont-Sardinia. And Jose and Manuela Reina lived in Sevilla, Spain. I don’t know what, if anything, they knew about the 13 colonies which had gained their independence from the British empire, but here’s what I am certain of: They could have never imagined that 250 years later, one of their direct descendants would be back here today on this continent as the chief diplomat of that infant nation. And yet here I am, reminded by my own story that both our histories and our fates will always be linked.

Together we rebuilt a shattered continent in the wake of two devastating world wars. When we found ourselves divided once again by the Iron Curtain, the free West linked arms with the courageous dissidents struggling against tyranny in the East to defeat Soviet communism. We have fought against each other, then reconciled, then fought, then reconciled again. And we have bled and died side by side on battlefields from Kapyong to Kandahar.

And I am here today to leave it clear that America is charting the path for a new century of prosperity, and that once again we want to do it together with you, our cherished allies and our oldest friends. (Applause.)

We want to do it together with you, with a Europe that is proud of its heritage and of its history; with a Europe that has the spirit of creation of liberty that sent ships out into uncharted seas and birthed our civilization; with a Europe that has the means to defend itself and the will to survive. We should be proud of what we achieved together in the last century, but now we must confront and embrace the opportunities of a new one – because yesterday is over, the future is inevitable, and our destiny together awaits. Thank you.” (Applause.)

~ Questions and Responses ~
QUESTION: Mr. Secretary, I’m not sure you heard the sigh of relief through this hall when we were just listening to what I would interpret as a message of reassurance, of partnership. You spoke of intertwined relations between the United States and Europe – reminds me of statements made decades ago by your predecessors when the discussion was: is actually America a European power? Is America a power in Europe? Thank you for offering this message of reassurance about our partnership.

This is actually not the first time that Marco Rubio is here at the Munich Security Conference – been here before a couple of times, but it’s the first time he has been and he is the speaker as Secretary of State. So thank you again. We have only a couple of minutes now for just a few questions, and if I may, we collected questions from the audience.

One of the key issues here yesterday, today, is, of course – continues to be the question of how to deal with the war in Ukraine. Many of us in the discussions over the last day, the last 24 hours, have voiced their impression that the Russians – let me put it colloquially – the Russians are playing for time, they’re not really interested in a meaningful settlement. There is no indication that they’re willing to compromise on any of their maximalist objectives. Offer to us, if you could, your assessment of where we are and where you think we can go.

SECRETARY RUBIO: Well, I think where we are at this point is that the issues at play that have to be – here’s the good news. The good news is that the issues that need to be confronted to end this war have been narrowed. That’s the good news. The bad news is they’ve been narrowed to the hardest questions to answer, and work remains to be done in that front. I hear your point about – the answer is we don’t know. We don’t know the Russians are serious about ending the war; they say they are – and under what terms they were willing to do it and whether we can find terms that are acceptable to Ukraine that Russia will always agree to. But we’re going to continue to test it.

In the meantime, everything else continues to happen. The United States has imposed additional sanctions on Russia’s oil. In our conversations with India, we’ve gotten their commitment to stop buying additional Russian oil. Europe has taken its set of steps moving forward. The Pearl Program continues in which American weaponry is being sold for the Ukrainian war effort. So all these things continue. Nothing has stopped in the interim. So there’s no buying of time here in that regard.

What we can’t answer – but we’re going to continue to test – is whether there is an outcome that Ukraine can live with and that Russia will accept. And I would say it’s been elusive up to this point. We’ve made progress in the sense that for the first time, I think in years, at least at the technical level, there were military officials from both sides that met together last week, and there’ll be – and there’ll be meetings again on Tuesday, although it may not be the same group of people.

Look, we’re going to continue to do everything we can to play this role of bringing this war to an end. I don’t think anybody in this room would be against a negotiated settlement to this war so long as the conditions are just and sustainable. And that’s what we aim to achieve, and we’re going to continue to try to achieve it, even as all these other things continue to happen on the sanctions front and so forth.

QUESTION: Thank you very much. I’m sure if we had more time there were many questions on Ukraine. But let me conclude by asking a question about something entirely different. The next speaker here in just a couple of minutes will be the foreign minister of China. When you served in the Senate, sir, people considered you a kind of a China hawk.

SECRETARY RUBIO: So did they.

QUESTION: So did they?

SECRETARY RUBIO: Yeah.

QUESTION: The – we know that there will be, in about two months’ time, a summit meeting between President Trump and President Xi Jinping. Give us your expectation. Are you optimistic? Can there be a, quote/unquote, “deal” with China? What do you expect?

SECRETARY RUBIO: Well, I would say this. The two largest economies in the world, two of the big powers on the planet, we have an obligation to communicate with them and talk, and so do many of you on a bilateral basis as well. I mean, it would be geopolitical malpractice to not be in conversations with China. I would say this: because we’re two large countries with huge global interests, our national interests will often not align. Their national interests and ours will not align, and we owe it to the world to try to manage those as best we can, obviously avoiding conflict, both economic and worse. And that – so it’s important for us to have communications with them in that regard.

On areas in which our interests are aligned, I think we can work together to make positive impact on the world, and we seek opportunities to do that with them. So – but we have to have a relationship with China. And any of the countries represented here today are going to have to have a relationship with China, always understanding that nothing that we agree to could come at the expense of our national interest. And frankly, we expect China to act in their national interest, as we expect every nation-state to act in their national interest. And the goal of diplomacy is to try to navigate those times in which our national interests come into conflict with one another, always hoping to do it peacefully.

I think we also have a special obligation because whatever happens between the U.S. and China on trade has a global implication. So there are long-term challenges that we face that we’re going to have to confront that are going to be irritants in our relationship with China. That’s not just true for the United States; that’s true for the broader West. But I do think we need to try to manage those the best we can to avoid unnecessary friction if it’s possible. But no one is under any illusions. There are some fundamental challenges between our countries and between the West and China that will continue for the foreseeable future for a variety of reasons, and it’s some of the things we hope to work together with you on.

QUESTION: Thank you very much, Mr. Secretary. We’ve run out of time. I’m sorry that I can’t take questions from all those who wanted to ask questions. Mr. Secretary of State, thank you for this message of reassurance. I think this is much appreciated here in the hall. Let’s offer a round of applause. (Applause.)

February 14, 2026 – Hillary Clinton gets into testy exchange with Czech Deputy PM while he was slamming ‘woke revolution’

Czech Deputy Prime Minister Petr Macinka told Hillary Clinton that the “woke revolution” pushed American voters toward President Donald Trump, then watched as the former secretary of state grew visibly agitated by his critique.

The confrontation broke out Saturday at the Munich Security Conference during a panel titled, “The West-West Divide: What Remains of Common Values,” according to Fox News. Macinka argued that Trump’s political rise was a direct response to left-wing cultural overreach in the U.S.

“What Trump is doing in America, I think that it is a reaction. Reaction for some policies that really went too far, too far from the regular people,” Macinka said.

Clinton demanded examples. Macinka obliged.

“We saw the cancel culture. We saw the woke revolution. I don’t agree with the gender revolution, the climate alarmism,” he said in a video posted on X.

February 16, 2026 – Hillary Clinton claims she couldn’t recall ever meeting Epstein and Bill took some rides on his airplane for charitable work

(…) During an interview with the Trump-hating British Broadcasting Corporation, Clinton claimed that she and Bill Clinton have “no links” to Epstein. “We have a very clear record that we’ve been willing to talk about, which my husband has said, he took some rides on the airplane for his charitable work,” Clinton said.

She continued, “I don’t recall ever meeting him,” though she did admit to meeting Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell.

She then accused the GOP of treating the Clintons unfairly after they refused to testify before the House Oversight Committee, leading to an attempt to hold the two in contempt of Congress before the Clintons finally agreed to sit for interviews.

“Why did they want to pull us into this? To divert attention from President Trump. This is not complicated,” she told the BBC’s Jess Parker.

Clinton further attacked Trump and his allies over the Epstein Files on Saturday at the Munich Security Conference, saying the information revealed was “troubling” and “really horrific,” while omitting the fact that Bill Clinton frequently spent time with Epstein and young girls.

“I watched her in Munich, and she seriously has Trump Derangement Syndrome,” Trump said when responding to her comments on Monday evening.

February 18, 2026 – Fulton County officials attempted to backdate legal documents and violated the Open Meetings Act to launch a federal lawsuit

Here it is:

The Georgia Election Board officially confirms INTENTIONAL HUMAN INTERVENTION—the predicate for a CRIMINAL CONSPIRACY.

Simply put: it was scanned twice, it was counted twice—intentionally, maliciously, and deliberately.

• 17,852 votes counted with no ballot images
• 20,713 original votes from tabulators out of thin air
• 3,930 duplicates counted and inserted into the CERTIFIED count via a criminal conspiracy,

How was this done?

Joseph Rossi: “Ballots were scanned on one day, and then they were randomly picked these batches of ballots and created a new batches and scanned a second day on a different tabulator.”

“We now know with certainty that this duplication of ballots was not a mere administrative error, rather the duplication process was due to INTENTIONAL HUMAN INTERVENTION. THE PREDICATE FOR ELECTION FRAUD.”

In other words: ‘Arctic Frost’— was designed to coverup their own crimes during the 2020 election.

February 19, 2026 – Andrew arrested on birthday for misconduct in public office; Epstein fallout continues

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has today been arrested on his 66th birthday and is in custody after a raid on his new Sandringham home.

Thames Valley Police held the eighth in line to the British throne on suspicion of misconduct in public office this morning.

The Daily Mail was the first to reveal plain-clothes police, carried in six unmarked vehicles, had arrived at Wood Farm, where Andrew now lives, at 8am this morning.

A convoy including at least two royal Land Rovers linked to Andrew was photographed leaving the estate less than an hour later. His arrest was confirmed at 10.08am.

For the past ten days, detectives have been probing his conduct as a trade envoy for the UK after emails in the Epstein Files suggested he shared confidential information with his paedophile friend, including reports of his official visits and potential investment opportunities.

A Thames Valley spokesman said today: ‘We have today arrested a man in his sixties from Norfolk on suspicion of misconduct in public office’.

The force said its officers are searching an address in Norfolk – believed to be Wood Farm, where Andrew is exiled – and an address in Berkshire, likely to be Royal Lodge in Windsor, where he lived for more than 20 years until this month.

‘The man remains in police custody at this time’, the spokesman said – but the force would not confirm where Andrew, who is celebrating his birthday today, had been taken.

Norfolk Police said it is ‘supporting’ the Thames Valley investigation but did not say if one of its stations was being used by detectives to interview Andrew.

Thames Valley Assistant Chief Constable Oliver Wright said: ‘Following a thorough assessment, we have now opened an investigation into this allegation of misconduct in public office.

‘It is important that we protect the integrity and objectivity of our investigation as we work with our partners to investigate this alleged offence.

‘We understand the significant public interest in this case, and we will provide updates at the appropriate time.’

February 19, 2026 – New evidence shows Maurene Comey ordered New Mexico officials to shut down investigation into Epstein’s Zorro Ranch

Maurene Comey, the daughter of disgraced former FBI Director James Comey Ordered New Mexico Officials to Shut Down Investigation Into Epstein’s Zorro Ranch In 2019.

New evidence has emerged showing that federal prosecutors ordered New Mexico investigators to shut down their probe into Jeffrey Epstein’s New Mexico ranch in 2019.

The discovery is raising new questions about how the federal government handled key aspects of the Epstein investigation.

The order came from then-Assistant U.S. Attorney Maurene Comey, the daughter of disgraced former FBI Director James Comey. – David Harris Jr.

(…) Former New Mexico Attorney General Hector Balderas launched an investigation but was asked to halt it in July 2019 by the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Maureen Comey, the daughter of former FBI director James Comey.

According to a Sept. 8, 2019, redacted email, her office said it “spoke with the New Mexico AG’s office back in July 2019. In essence, they agreed to cease any investigation into sex trafficking and share whatever they had gathered to date regarding sex trafficking activity with our office. We agreed that they were free. To proceed with whatever other investigations unrelated to sex trafficking they may have concerning Epstein and told them that at the conclusion of our case, we would pass along any information we may have gathered about the state crimes that were committed in their jurisdiction.”

In a letter to Comey obtained by The Center Square, Balderas provided documents of “police reports, recorded witness interviews, correspondence amongst New Mexico State agencies, and documents related to Epstein’s leasing of New Mexico public lands.” The Trump administration redacted Comey’s name even though it was public knowledge that she was the US attorney at the time. Her office said it was interviewing Epstein victims based on the information Balderas provided, according to an Oct. 11, 2019, email. In 2020, Balderas was still providing information. No charges were brought; no search warrants were issued to search Zorro ranch. (Read more: The Center Square, 2/19/2026)

February 20, 2026 – CIA retracts 19 intel reports exposing political bias in Obama-Biden spy agencies

QUIET NEWS.
The DEI era masquerading as Intelligence Is OVER.

For over a decade, the CIA blazed through taxpayer dollars while national security emphasis was on Democrats woke bias versus real threats.

Under Dir. John Ratcliffe’s leadership, the CIA just retracted or gutted 19 bogus intelligence reports loaded with systemic leftist bias.

The reports were deliberate radical activist inserts, slipped into our intel pipeline.

Here’s a peek at the three declassified (redacted versions out for all to see):
👉Frenzy over LGBT activists in the Middle East as some grand strategic crisis
👉Smearing traditional family values and “white violent extremism” (code for painting conservative men/women/mothers/fathers as radicals)
👉Linking COVID-era contraception shortages in poor countries to global planet and economic doom

The DEI poison spanned Obama, Trump 1.0, and Joe years, proving the fat cat bureaucratic rot was deeply rooted and systemic.

The same crew that pushed the Russia-Russia hoax and ignored real enemies like China now gets exposed for turning spy work into social justice pamphlets.

Ratcliffe isn’t playing: “There is absolutely no room for bias in our work.”

The President’s Intelligence Advisory Board reviewed hundreds, flagged these 19 for failing basic impartiality and tradecraft. 17 fully yanked, 2 heavily revised. Analyst training is being overhauled.

Sen. Tom Cotton was spot-on: ‘We’ve missed real dangers while bureaucrats obsessed over “pandemic contraceptive shortfalls.”
Those days are over.
The swamp’s favorite politicized “intelligence”—just got defanged. Transparency. Objectivity. America First priorities are being restored. 🇺🇸

Story By Todd Cefaratti @TrumpDailyPosts 2.21.26

Trump just exposed massive bias in the Obama-Biden spy agencies. President Donald J. Trump shared a bombshell link on Truth Social, pointing straight to a Just the News article that lays bare how the CIA has finally started cleaning house. In a historic move, the agency under Director John Ratcliffe retracted or revised nineteen intelligence reports from the Obama, Trump, and Biden years, admitting they were riddled with political bias and fell short of basic standards for impartiality. This isn’t some minor tweak; it’s a long-overdue admission that spy agencies got weaponized against Regular Americans during those administrations.

The reports pulled focused on hot-button cultural stuff far removed from real national security threats. We’re talking assessments pushing DEI nonsense, like one claiming white women in traditional motherhood roles were getting radicalized into racially motivated violent extremism. Another warned about contraceptive shortfalls during the pandemic in a pro-abortion tone, citing Planned Parenthood and Guttmacher Institute multiple times. There was even one on LGBT activists facing pressure in the Middle East, sourced from sketchy outlets. Seventeen of these got permanently deleted from use, and two were fixed and re-released. Three examples were declassified and made public to show just how bad it got.

A senior CIA official didn’t mince words: these products had “inappropriate insertion of DEI issues and other distractions” that undercut objective analysis. Under prior administrations, the agency let politics creep in, turning intelligence work into something that sounded more like activist talking points than hard facts. Director Ratcliffe made it clear there’s no room for bias in CIA work, and when they spot failures in analytic rigor, they fix the record. This comes after last year’s lessons-learned review slammed how the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment on Russian election interference included the debunked Steele Dossier, despite internal objections. Former Director John Brennan pushed for narrative consistency over solid tradecraft, and it hurt credibility big time.

Regular Americans have known this rot existed for years. The Trump-Russia collusion hoax was shoved down our throats by these same agencies, with the Steele Dossier treated like gospel even though it was opposition research garbage. Then came the targeting of parents protesting school boards; Attorney General Merrick Garland’s 2021 memo weaponized the FBI against concerned moms and dads, labeling them potential domestic threats after a National School Boards Association letter equated peaceful rallies to terrorism. That memo got rescinded in 2025 under the new AG Pam Bondi, but the damage was done. Whistleblowers and congressional probes showed how counterterrorism tools got twisted for political ends.

Don’t forget the anti-Catholic bias. In 2023, the FBI’s Richmond office put out a memo linking “radical-traditionalist Catholic” ideology to violent extremism, citing left-wing sources like the Southern Poverty Law Center. It got pulled after backlash, but Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley later revealed it spread to over a thousand FBI employees, with more documents using similar smears. Former Director Christopher Wray claimed it was just one rogue product, but the evidence says otherwise. These weren’t isolated slips; they were patterns of elite sabotage against faith, family, and free speech.

Trump’s post highlights this because he fought these deep state games from day one. During his first term, he called out the weaponization, and now in 2026, with loyal leaders like Ratcliffe at CIA and others cleaning up, we’re seeing real accountability. The retractions prove what Regular Americans suspected: Obama-Biden era spy agencies prioritized politics over protecting the country. They inserted woke distractions into foreign intelligence, ignored tradecraft, and targeted everyday citizens who dared question school policies or hold traditional values.

This cleanup is a huge win. It restores trust in the intelligence community by admitting past failures and removing tainted products. No more using CIA resources to push abortion agendas or smear Catholics and parents. Instead, focus returns to actual threats like foreign adversaries. Ratcliffe’s statement nails it: these old reports don’t reflect the expertise of today’s analysts, and bias has no place. Regular Americans can breathe easier knowing the agency is finally enforcing standards.

Critics from the left, like Senate Intel Vice Chair Mark Warner, whine that this is politicization by Trump’s appointees. They claim it’s sidelining career experts. But the facts show the opposite: the retractions correct real deviations from objectivity. Former officials might defend the old reports as just reflecting past priorities, but that’s code for saying bias was baked in under Democrats. Trump never let that slide, and his influence now forces the fix.

Think about the bigger picture. For years, the media and Democrats painted Trump as the threat to institutions, but look who’s been caught politicizing the spies. The Russia hoax wasted millions and divided the nation. Targeting parents chilled free speech at school board meetings. Smearing Catholics as extremists alienated millions of faithful voters. All while real dangers like border security or China got downplayed. Trump’s sharing this article reminds everyone: he promised to drain the swamp, and he’s delivering.

In February 2026, with midterms on the horizon and America First policies rolling, this retraction boosts momentum. It shows strength in leadership, courage to admit and correct wrongs, even if they happened before. Regular Americans who supported Trump in 2016, 2020, and 2024 see vindication. The deep state isn’t invincible; truth wins when bold leaders act.

This moment matters because it protects our freedoms. No more intelligence reports twisted to advance leftist causes. The CIA refocuses on keeping America safe from real enemies, not imaginary ones invented to score political points. Trump spotlighting this proves he’s still fighting for us every day.

Regular Americans should celebrate this exposure. It shines light on the rot and starts the healing. Support leaders who demand integrity. Demand accountability from all agencies. With Trump leading the charge, we can make intelligence objective again and put America first where it belongs.

February 20, 2026 – JPMorgan Chase formally admits to terminating more than 50 Trump bank accounts after January 6 protest

JPMorgan Chase has formally admitted that it terminated more than 50 accounts connected to President Donald Trump and his business operations in the wake of the January 6th protest.

The admission came in court filings responding to a lawsuit filed by Trump and the Trump Organization.

The suit names JPMorgan and its CEO, Jamie Dimon, of debanking the president as part of an orchestrated political attack.

According to documents submitted to the court, the closures affected accounts tied to Trump hotels, real estate projects, and retail ventures in multiple states, as well as his longstanding private banking relationship.

That relationship had handled personal financial matters, including assets linked to his inheritance.

The bank’s internal correspondence, included in the filing, does not cite a specific violation or financial irregularity.

In a letter dated February 2021, JPMorgan informed Trump that he would need to “find a more suitable institution with which to conduct business.”

“Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter,” it concluded.

The lawsuit alleges the bank “needed to distance itself from President Trump and his conservative political views,” effectively placing him on a blacklist.

“In essence, [JP Morgan] debanked plaintiffs’ accounts because it believed that the political tide at the moment favored doing so,” the lawsuit states. (Read more: Gateway Pundit, 2/22/2026)  (Archive)

February 19, 2026 – Trump, Rubio’s State Department and DOGE are creating a portal for censored people to bypass their country’s censorship laws

🚨 WOW! President Trump and Marco Rubio’s State Department is creating a portal for people in places like the European Union to BYPASS censorship laws — with the help of Elon Musk’s DOGE genius, “Big Balls” Edward Coristine

ABSOLUTELY BASED.

Freedom dot gov is set to un-filter “hate speech” and other BS censorship enacted by governments online

Edward Coristine: “FREEDOM IS COMING.” 🔥🇺🇸

The http://freedom.gov portal is a game-changer for digital sovereignty. Europe’s censorship regime—masked as “hate speech” enforcement—has long suppressed free expression under the guise of combating extremism. The State Department’s move to empower users with unfiltered access via VPNs and privacy tools isn’t just about bypassing bans; it’s a direct rebuke of EU overreach that conflates conservative dissent with terrorism.

Edward Coristine’s involvement, leveraging DOGE’s efficiency playbook, ensures this isn’t another bloated federal project but a surgical strike against bureaucratic censorship.

Critics whine about “undermining laws,” but sovereignty isn’t negotiable. If Brussels can’t handle truth, America will host it.

February 20, 2026 – New FBI internal emails reveal Biden White House coordinated with DOJ on Mar-a-Lago raid

FOX NEWS ALERT: Fox News has obtained emails from 2022 that appear to contradict the Biden administration’s claim it had nothing to do with the Department of Justice’s raid on President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home in Palm Beach, Florida reports Fox’s @BretBaier and @davidspunt

Fox’s David Spunt: “New emails obtained by Fox News from May 2022, 3 months before Mar-a-Lago was raided by the FBI, illustrated coordination between the White House Counsel’s office and the DOJ regarding an interview of Walt Nauta.”

AG Bondi says: “The more we learn about the DOJ’s weaponization under the prior administration, the worse the story gets… We will continue disclosing KEY EVIDENCE to our congressional partners to deliver the truth and bring those who committed crimes to justice.”

(…) In 2024, Judge Aileen Cannon unsealed records in Jack Smith’s classified docs case against Trump that reveal Biden’s White House and DOJ were coordinating with National Archives general counsel Gary Stern.

The day before Jack Smith indicted Trump in the classified documents case on June 8, 2023, NARA’s general counsel, Gary Stern, was at the Biden White House and met with Joe Biden’s White House lawyer, Richard Sauber.

NARA’s general counsel, Gary Stern, was working with Biden’s White House and DOJ as early as August 2021 (one year before the Mar-a-Lago raid).

It was recently reported that the FBI did not believe it had probable cause to raid Mar-a-Lago in 2022 but descended on Trump’s Florida estate amid pressure from Biden’s corrupt Justice Department. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 2/20/2026) (Archive)

February 21, 2026 – Epstein Files: The Rothschild name appears 12,000 times in the Epstein Files

In February 2016, Jeffrey Epstein wrote an email to Peter Thiel, co-founder of PayPal and Palantir, with a sentence that should have made the front page of every newspaper in the Western world: “As you probably know, I represent the Rothschilds.” The sentence is in the Epstein Files. It is an official document of the United States Department of Justice. And the mainstream press treated it as it would a footnote about the weather in Bermuda.

Guy de Rothschild and Marie-Hélène de Rothschild attend The Rothschild Surrealist Ball, 1972)

The name “Rothschild” appears nearly 12,000 times across the 3.8 million pages released in January 2026. Twelve thousand times. By comparison, “Clinton” appears at a significantly lower frequency. But in the media ecosystem that Chomsky helped build, repeating the name Rothschild in an investigative context is automatically reclassified as conspiratorial delusion. Convenient, when yours is the most cited name in the largest child sex trafficking scandal in modern history.

Les Wexner, the billionaire founder of Victoria’s Secret and Epstein’s largest known benefactor, testified under oath before the House Oversight Committee on February 18, 2026. Asked about the credentials that led him to entrust Epstein with full power of attorney over his finances, he answered plainly: “His personal work for the Rothschild family in France.” He added: “Specifically, I spoke to Élie de Rothschild. He represented their whole family.” Under oath. Before the United States Congress. Wexner’s attorney was caught whispering to his client on a hot mic: “I’ll fucking kill you if you answer another question with more than five words.” Desperation has recognizable symptoms.

The documents confirm what Wexner revealed. In October 2015, Southern Trust Company Inc., chaired by Epstein and based in the Virgin Islands, entered into a $25 million contract with Edmond de Rothschild Holding S.A. The subject: “risk analysis” and “application of certain algorithms.” Twenty-five million dollars for a convicted child sex offender to run algorithms for the wealthiest family in Europe. If this were a TV script, no studio would buy it for lack of plausibility.

Ariane de Rothschild, CEO of the Edmond de Rothschild Group since 2023, exchanged emails with Epstein dozens of times per month. The Wall Street Journal confirmed in 2023 that she met with him in person more than a dozen times after his conviction. The bank’s initial defense was to deny any contact. Later, they admitted the meetings took place “as part of her normal duties.” Normal duties apparently include regular meetings with convicted pedophiles.

(…) The pattern that emerges from the documents is structurally clear. Epstein operated as the Rothschild family’s financial representative. He used that position to build a network of relationships with billionaires, politicians, and academics. That network was the operational substrate of the largest documented child sex trafficking scheme in history. And when the survivors began to speak, the silencing machine operated with banking precision. (Read more: The Elegant Ruin, 2/21/2026)  (Archive)

February 21, 2026 – The FBI Mission and the “Library on Congress”

In roughly the past fifty years, the term “continuity of government” has been used with increased frequency describing how the United States of America, a constitutional republican system of government, contains internal mechanisms to protect the executive branch in the event of crisis, attack or disruption of leadership by adversaries.

The term ‘continuity of government‘ became much more common in the aftermath of 9-11-01 and the thunder shock of an al-Qaeda inspired terrorist attack in New York and Washington DC.

Within the very brief discussion period that led up to the 10-26-01 Patriot Act [pdf here], literally a structural reform of the entire domestic terrorist apparatus that created the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Transportation Safety Administration (TSA), a bill only debated for a few weeks, the baseline was the enhanced ‘continuity of government‘ in the event of an emergency.

As we have exhaustively outlined on these pages, the outcome of the Patriot Act was to create a system where every American was now viewed by our federal government through the prism of the citizen being a potential terrorist threat.

The federal government aligned all of our institutions and national security systems accordingly.

DHS was created to monitor American behavior, the TSA was created to scan American travelers, and the FBI was enhanced with resources to conduct surveillance despite our Fourth Amendment protections within our Constitution.  Instead of the U.S. Govt protecting U.S. citizens from foreign threats, the Patriot Act changed the mission of government to protect itself from potential citizen threats.

In essence, We the People became the suspects, and all of the constitutional viewpoints within the FBI and Dept of Justice were modified to create monitoring systems.

The legislative branch was considered part of a this newly protected elite class of Americans, and the judicial branch deferred all scrutiny to the executive as long as they claimed, ‘national security.’  The secret FISA court system would grant the agents surveillance power over U.S. citizens.

As the foundation of this new surveillance state was just being finalized, Barack Obama, Joe Biden and Eric Holder then entered government via the 2008 election and weaponized this system to target their domestic political opposition.

However, there is also a second element to this ‘continuity of government’ that flows with the first premise.

The continuity of a very specific outlook by government.

The continuity of a very specific construct of government.

The continuity of a view within government of how government should operate. This is part of the continuity of government not discussed.

You can argue it was the viewpoint of a very specific type of government “continuity” that led to the opposition against Donald Trump by Democrats and Republicans.

Trump would be a disruptive influence if introduced into a continuation mission that did not like change.  This ‘continuity’ mindset then established the justification for every institution and element of the bureaucracy, including almost all layers of the people who run them, to oppose Donald Trump.

By the time the 2016 election arrived, We the People had already been defined by the Patriot Act outcome as a threat to government.  If we the people did not select the right kind of candidate who would be approved by the continuity system, then our selection would be rejected by all of the operators of that administrative system.   That’s what happened.

Every move by the U.S. federal government, from 2016 to now, has been contrast against the backdrop of a new awakening and visible understanding.

We the People are the threat, and those who control the DC power centers that determine the continuity of government, will not accept any modification or diminishment of their mission.  This is how they justify their conduct in very real terms, including through application of law.  This is also why the people who operate these systems are very visible with their conduct and do not have any reservations about showing their omnipotent mindset.

From their perspective, they are doing what they do, running government how they run government, maintaining the continuity the system was designed to protect, and we are what they consider futile and irrelevant voices.

Both the Republican and Democrat leadership hold this same view.  This “continuity of government” is the core of their UniParty alignment.

Here is where this understanding gets really interesting.

In order to maintain this system, there has to be an internal monitoring system, a surveillance system to protect itself against any adversary.  A domestic surveillance state has to exist as an outcome of the logical sequence.

Within this total surveillance state, the FBI is the federal agency – a national police force with a mission to run monitoring operations.

Everyone is monitored, and in case anyone would raise objection to being monitored, the corporate media provide protection against criticism by saying the agencies doing the monitoring need to be independent.

As we plunge deeper and deeper into this weaponized surveillance state, if you engage in any conduct to avoid monitoring, you run the risk of being caught in the DHS surveillance sweep.  You run the risk of becoming a DHS subject of interest, just like candidate Donald Trump – only smaller.  If you choose to fight against accepting the weaponized surveillance state, you will be considered a DHS subject of interest – just like the J6 detainees.

When the FBI was fighting against the release of the FD-1023 report, outlining the Confidential Human Source (CHS) that gave evidence to the FBI against Joe Biden, people missed something.

The DOJ/FBI reluctance to admit the FD-1023 report existed was not just about Joe Biden, it was also about a surveillance process this reporting would reveal.

The confidential human source (CHS) was a person giving information to the FBI for their files.  This is the library on congress.  There are hundreds of thousands of these FD-1023 forms created, as CHS’s undercover agent employees (UAE’s) and a myriad of resources, are deployed in this surveillance system.

It’s the breadth of this surveillance system that leads to the FBI saying, “The safeguards the FBI placed on the production of this information are necessary to protect the safety of confidential sources and the integrity of sensitive investigations. Today’s release of the 1023 [form] – at a minimum – unnecessarily risks the safety of a confidential source.”

As noted by the Federalist Margot Cleveland, “During Wednesday’s hours-long hearing, IRS whistleblowers Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler both told lawmakers they had never seen the FD-1023. Significantly, Ziegler then stated: “There’s things that are contained on that document that could further corroborate other information that we might be having an issue corroborating because it could be regarding a foreign official. So, if we have information regarding that in a document or a witness, we can further corroborate later evidence.”

The reason the IRS agents were not aware of the CHS reports to the FBI, is because keeping the FD-1023 report hidden did not have as much to do with protecting Biden as it does with protecting this surveillance apparatus.

Who are all of these CHS’s and UAEs like Igor Danchenko, Patrick Byrne, Azra Turk, Carter Page, Joseph Mifsud, Ray Epps, 1% Watchdog, etc. etc. etc?  There is a massive surveillance apparatus underway monitoring everyone, including an assembly of files against sitting members of congress and political leadership.

Keep in mind, the FD-1023 reports are not blackmail, they are reports of conduct and action.

Blackmail and/or leverage is an outcome of knowing information.  The massive assembly of FD-1023 reports are the source information.

This was a big part of the reason why FBI Director Christopher Wray initially denied there was an FD-1023 report.

In the bigger of the big pictures, this Joe/Hunter Biden story was the tip of an iceberg showing how the FBI is a domestic surveillance operation assembling files on everyone; that includes members of Congress and key political leadership that could advance to power.  Why is all of this surveillance taking place?…

….Because it is a very specific type of Continuity of Government that must be maintained.

Don’t look at the Potemkin village we call Washington DC.

Look for the people behind the construct.

Look for the people who are using these files.

February 24, 2026 – Highlights of Trump’s State Of The Union address

Celebrities, lawmakers and former government officials gathered for a “State of the Swamp” event ahead of President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address, staging a high-profile protest as counter programming to the annual speech.

President Trump honors Coast Guard Petty Officer Scott Ruskan with the Legion of Merit for rescuing 165 people, largely children, during the deadly flash floods that struck Camp Mystic on July 4, 2025.

“If you agree with this statement, stand up to show your support: The first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens,” Trump said.

Republicans stood up and cheered while many Democrats remained seated.

President Trump lambasted the Democrats for refusing to stand for protecting American citizens.

“[Democrats] are blocking the removal of [illegal alien drug lords and rapists] out of our country and you should be ashamed of yourselves!” Trump said.

“You have killed Americans!” Omar shouted.

“You should be ashamed!” Omar added.

Fellow squad member Rashida Tlaib also joined Ilhan Omar and shouted at President Trump.

Democrat Response:

February 24, 2026 – The Biden DOJ funneled millions in federal grants to Fani Willis as she coordinated with the WH and J6 Committee to prosecute Trump

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis coordinated extensively with the Biden Justice Department and White House as well as Democrats on the House Jan. 6 investigative committee as she built a failed criminal case against President Donald Trump and his allies related to their challenge to Georgia’s 2020 election results, according to a trove of internal communications obtained by Just the News.

The memos show that President Joe Biden’s top White House lawyer personally opened the door for Willis’ prosecutors to interview Trump administration officials by waiving claims of executive privilege, that federal prosecutors waived certain rights to allow the interviews to proceed before a state grand jury and that Willis’s team spoke glowingly of the congressional efforts to expose Trump’s involvement in the disputed election.

“Our initial review of the report confirms you all have accomplished amazing things in the past year,” F. Donald Wakeford, a top deputy to Willis, wrote in a December 2022 email to Tim Heaphy, chief investigative counsel for the Democrat-run Select Committee to Investigate the Jan. 6 Attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Just the News, alongside the nonprofit public interest law firm America First Legal (AFL), sued Willis for the records, under Georgia’s Open Records Law. Willis, a longtime Trump nemesis, sought to hide many of the records with claims of legal privilege during a prolonged legal fight.

In a reaction to the lawsuit, Willis’ office this week dropped all privilege claims and released all the documents without any redactions, providing to Just the News — and the public — more information than it did to congressional Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee.

“These documents reveal that the Biden Administration and the January 6 Committee were much more involved in District Attorney Fani Willis’s prosecution of President Trump than was previously believed. AFL was happy to represent Just the News to get Americans this new information,” said Will Scolinos, an attorney at America First Legal.

Georgia court: “Willis’ misconduct created an “odor of mendacity”

The Georgia Court of Appeals issued a decision holding Willis accountable for prosecutorial misconduct and conflict of interest during her hunt to get Trump.

“The court highlighted that Willis’ misconduct created an ‘odor of mendacity’ and an appearance of impropriety that could only be cured by the disqualification of her and her entire office,” Trump attorney Steve Sadow said in a statement, according to The Georgia Reporter.

“As the court rightfully noted, only the remedy of disqualification will suffice to restore public confidence. This decision puts an end to a politically motivated persecution of the next President of the United States.”

February 25, 2026 – Trump announces a ‘war on fraud’ and appoints JD Vance to oversee it

President Donald Trump announces the “war on fraud” during his State of the Union address on February 25, 2026, and appoints Vice President JD Vance to lead/oversee the initiative.

He states: “So tonight, although [it] started four months ago, I am officially announcing the war on fraud to be led by our great Vice President JD Vance. He’ll get it done.”

The effort focuses on rooting out waste, fraud, and abuse in federal programs (especially Medicaid and entitlements), with early actions including freezing over $250 million in Medicaid funds to Minnesota.

Vice President JD Vance and administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Mehmet Oz discussed a ‘War on Fraud’ that President Trump announced in his State of the Union. The main topic was health care related fraud in Minnesota, and the Trump administration is reportedly cutting some funding to the state over it.

February 25, 2026 – Biden’s FBI subpoenaed Kash Patel and Susie Wiles phone records while they were private citizens; Patel fires those involved

The FBI, under President Joe Biden, subpoenaed the phone records of Susie Wiles, President Donald Trump’s chief of staff, and FBI Director Kash Patel when they were private citizens.

The subpoenas came out when Smith investigated Trump for allegedly trying to overturn the 2020 election and hiding classified information at Mar-a-Lago.

The most significant part of the story, which Reuters buried, is that two FBI officials said that the agency wiretapped and recorded a call between Wiles and her attorney in 2023.

The attorney supposedly consented to the FBI recording the call.

According to Marc Caputo of Axios, the lawyer denies the claim, saying he never gave permission for anyone to record the phone call.

“If I ever pulled a stunt like that I wouldn’t – and shouldn’t – have a license to practice law,” the lawyer told Caputo. “I’m as shocked as Susie.”

Wiles reportedly told people close to her that the news left her “in shock.”

It seems Wiles believes the attorney.

Caputo correctly does not name the lawyer since “he and his former client believe he is being [un]fairly accused.”

The news is serious because it’s not the same as the tracking Smith and his cronies performed on eight Republican senators and 400 Republicans.

The tracking, known as toll analysis, only shows the who, when, and where of the communication. It does not show content.

Tapping and recording phone calls obviously reveals content.

To make matters worse, the phone call was between Wiles and her attorney.

Attorney-client privilege applies only when the attorney is acting in an attorney-client capacity, a third party is present, the parties are facilitating a crime, or confidentiality is waived. (Read more: Legal Insurrection, 2/27/2026)  (Archive)

February 25, 2026 – Biden’s FBI was spying on Kash Patel and Susie Wiles in 2022 and 2023… when they were private citizens

(…) Patel told Reuters that the bureau’s subpoenas were an example of federal overreach by unelected officials.

“It is outrageous and deeply alarming that the previous FBI leadership secretly subpoenaed my own phone records – along with those of now White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles – using flimsy pretexts and burying the entire process in prohibited case files designed to evade all oversight,” Patel said.

February 26, 2026 – Kristi Noem: Deep State officials bugged my phone, computer

Deep State activists within the Department of Homeland Security secretly bugged the phones and computers used by top political appointees, agency chief Kristi Noem told the PBD Podcast.

Elon Musk’s deputies “helped me identify [the Deep State allies who] downloaded software on my phone and my laptop to spy on me, to record our meetings,” Noem said on February 26, adding:

They had done that to several of the politicals, and so we ended up bringing in [outside tech] people … [and we] didn’t have those technology experts here in the department looking at all of our laptops and our phones and recognizing that kind of software.

“I always believed when people talked about the deep state before that it existed: I never would have dreamed that it was as bad as it is,” she said. “I’m still every day trying to dig out people who don’t love America, not just [those] who work at this department, but also work throughout the federal government.”

The Deep State actors also had their own spy base within the DHS building, she said:

I just found the other day a whole room on this [DHS headquarters] campus that was a secret SCIF secure facility [Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility] that had files nobody knew existed. So we just happened to have an employee walk by a door and wonder what it was. Started asking questions. We went there. There was individuals working there that had secret files that nobody knew about on some of these most controversial topics, like that. And now I’ve got that turned over to attorneys, and we’re getting to the bottom of what exactly happened there.

Noem also said she is trying to reconstruct the movement of scientists through U.S. government and Chinese laboratories before the coronavirus crash:

I also have national labs under my jurisdiction, they [have] scientists that participated with that [China-based] Wuhan lab. [We’re studying] how they were traveling back and forth between each other, and working on those experiments.

“It’s been eye-opening,” she said.

February 26, 2026 – Hillary Clinton’s team spent seven hours engineering the perfect camera angle and lighting before her Epstein deposition

(Credit: America First Report)

Before Hillary Clinton answered a single question under oath about her connections to Jeffrey Epstein, her team had already spent considerable energy on a different priority: making sure she looked good on camera. According to a source familiar with the setup, the pre-deposition preparations at the Chappaqua Performing Arts Center on February 26 involved a level of image management more fitting for a television production than a sworn congressional proceeding.

The details, first reported by the New York Post, paint a telling picture. Clinton’s team requested what the source described as “beauty lighting” from the venue. They repeatedly instructed that the camera be positioned to her left, which they considered her more flattering angle. When the existing lighting still cast unflattering shadows, white tablecloths were brought in and arranged to reflect the overhead stage lights and soften the effect on her face.

The original black curtains were deemed unacceptable — the source says the team worried they made the setting look like a “hostage situation.” A custom blue-paneled backdrop was ordered from a local vendor and produced in roughly seven hours to replace them. Many of these same visual adjustments remained in place the following day for former President Bill Clinton’s deposition.

Whatever one makes of the underlying investigation, the staging operation raises an obvious question: why does a witness summoned to give sworn testimony in a closed-door congressional deposition need a lighting crew? (Read more: America First Report, 3/3/2026)  (Archive)

February 26, 2026 – Hillary Clinton stops her Jeffrey Epstein deposition after Boebert took pic of her and sent to Benny Johnson; deposition resumes later

Chaos erupted inside Hillary Clinton’s Jeffrey Epstein deposition on Thursday after a Republican lawmaker took a photograph of her during the private session.

Representative Lauren Boebert snapped a picture of Hillary and her attorneys as she addressed lawmakers about her relationship with Epstein, then purportedly leaked it to MAGA influencer Benny Johnson. 

Hillary’s lawyers asked that the proceedings be halted after the photograph began circulating on social media. It is strictly prohibited for lawmakers or witnesses to take pictures inside a closed-door congressional testimony.

The former secretary of state is being deposed at the Chappaqua Performing Arts Center near the Clintons’ home in Westchester County, New York, while Bill Clinton will testify on Friday.

The closed-door session is being filmed, though any footage will be reviewed by Hillary’s lawyers before release. The deposition resumed within an hour.

Hillary later asked James Comer, the top Republican overseeing the deposition, if the press could be allowed in the hearing after Boebert’s shocking leak. Comer reportedly replied, ‘No.’

A Clinton spokesman told the Daily Mail: ‘It’s against chamber rules that were read at the top of the meeting. So the hearing has been paused briefly while they figure out where the photo came from and why, possibly, members of Congress are violating House rules.’

Prior to the chaos, Hillary blasted Republicans for targeting her while failing to investigate Donald Trump in a fiery opening statement where she provided no defense for her husband.

The former secretary of state said she has ‘no information on Epstein’s criminal activities and never recalls meetings’, then accused lawmakers of covering up for Trump’s relationship with Epstein, where he faces ‘heinous’ accusations from survivors.

Hillary Clinton Statement

Mr Chairman, Ranking Member, Members of the Committee… as a former Senator, I have respect for legislative oversight and I expect its exercise, as do the American people, to be principled and fearless in pursuit of truth and accountability.

As we all know, however, too often Congressional investigations are partisan political theater, which is an abdication of duty and an insult to the American people.

The Committee justified its subpoena to me based on its assumption that I have information regarding the investigations into the criminal activities of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Let me be as clear as I can. I do not.

As I stated in my sworn declaration on January 13, I had no idea about their criminal activities. I do not recall ever encountering Mr Epstein. I never flew on his plane or visited his island, homes or offices. I have nothing to add to that.

Like every decent person, I have been horrified by what we have learned about their crimes. It’s unfathomable that Mr Epstein initially got a slap on the wrist in 2008, which allowed him to continue his predatory practices for another decade.

Mr Chairman, your investigation is supposed to be assessing the federal government’s handling of the investigations and prosecutions of Epstein and his crimes. You subpoenaed eight law enforcement officials, all of whom ran the Department of Justice or directed the FBI when Epstein’s crimes were investigated and prosecuted. Of those eight, only one appeared before the Committee. Five of the six former attorneys general were allowed to submit brief statements stating they had no information to provide.

You have held zero public hearings, refused to allow the media to attend them, including today, despite espousing the need for transparency on dozens of occasions.

You have made little effort to call the people who show up most prominently in the Epstein files. And when you did, not a single Republican Member showed up for Les Wexner’s deposition.

This institutional failure is designed to protect one political party and one public official, rather than to seek truth and justice for the victims and survivors, as well as the public who also want to get to the bottom of this matter. My heart breaks for the survivors. And I am furious on their behalf.

I have spent my life advocating for women and girls. I have worked hard to stop the terrible abuses so many women and girls face here and around the world, including human trafficking, forced labor, and sexual slavery. For too long, these have been largely invisible crimes or not treated as crimes at all. But the survivors are real and they are entitled to better.

In Southeast Asia, I met girls as young as twelve years old who were forced into prostitution and raped repeatedly. Some were dying of AIDS. In Eastern Europe, I met mothers who told me how they lost daughters to trafficking and did not know where to turn. In settings around the world, I met survivors trying to rebuild their lives and help rescue others – with little support from people in power, who too often turned a blind eye and a cold shoulder.

If you are new to this issue, let me tell you: Jeffrey Epstein was a heinous individual, but he’s far from alone. This is not a one-off tabloid sensation or a political scandal. It’s a global scourge with an unimaginable human toll.

My work combatting sex trafficking goes back to my days as First Lady. I worked to pass the first federal legislation against trafficking and was proud that my husband signed the Trafficking Victims Protection Act, which increased support for survivors and gave prosecutors better tools for going after traffickers.

As Secretary of State, I appointed a former federal prosecutor, Lou CdeBaca, to ramp up our global antitrafficking efforts. I oversaw nearly 170 anti-trafficking programs in 70 nations and directly pressed foreign leaders to crack down on trafficking networks in their countries. Every year we published a global report to shine a light on abuses. The findings of those reports triggered sanctions on countries failing to make progress, so they became a powerful diplomatic tool to drive concrete action.

I insisted that the United States be included in the report for the first time ever in 2011. Because we must hold ourselves not just to the same standard as the rest of the world but to an even higher one. Sex trafficking and modern slavery should have no place in America. None.

Infuriatingly, the Trump Administration gutted the Trafficking in Persons Office at the State Department, cutting more than 70 percent of the career civil and foreign service experts who worked so hard to prevent trafficking crimes. The annual trafficking report, required by law, was delayed for months. The message from the Trump Administration to the American people and the world could not be clearer: combatting human trafficking is no longer an American priority under the Trump White House.

That is a tragedy. It’s a scandal. It deserves vigorous investigation and oversight.

A committee endeavoring to stopping human trafficking would seek to understand what specific steps are needed to fix a system that allowed Epstein to get away with his crimes in 2008.

A committee run by elected officials with a commitment to transparency would ensure the full release of all the files.

It would ensure that the lawful redactions of those files protected the victims and survivors, not powerful men and political allies.

It would get to the bottom of reports that DOJ withheld FBI interviews in which a survivor accuses President Trump of heinous crimes.

It would subpoena anyone who asked on which night there would be the “wildest party” on Epstein’s island.

It would demand testimony from prosecutors in Florida and New York about why they gave Epstein a sweetheart deal and chose not to pursue others who may have been implicated.

It would demand that Secretary Rubio and Attorney General Bondi testify about why this administration is abandoning survivors and playing into the hands of traffickers.

It would seek out officers on the front lines of this fight and ask them what support they need.

It would put forth legislation to provide more resources and force this administration to act.

But that’s not happening.

Instead, you have compelled me to testify, fully aware that I have no knowledge that would assist your investigation, in order to distract attention from President Trump’s actions and to cover them up despite legitimate calls for answers.

If this Committee is serious about learning the truth about Epstein’s trafficking crimes, it would not rely on press gaggles to get answers from our current president on his involvement; it would ask him directly under oath about the tens of thousands of times he shows up in the Epstein files.

If the majority was serious, it would not waste time on fishing expeditions. There is too much that needs to be done.

What is being held back? Who is being protected? And why the cover-up?

My challenge to you, Mr Chairman, Members of the Committee, is the same challenge I put to myself throughout my long service to this nation. How to be worthy of the trust the American people have given you. They expect statesmanship, not gamesmanship. Leading, not grandstanding. They expect you to use your power to get to the truth and to do more to help survivors of Epstein’s crimes as well as the millions more who are victims of sex trafficking.

February 27, 2026 – A non-profit, the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA), verifies our voter applicant ID’s nationwide

U.S. States use 2 nearly identical systems to check applicant identities. One is used to check Driver’s License applicants, the other is used to check Voter Registration applicants. One is flawed, the other flawless. Guess which is used for our elections.

The Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA) is a generic term for a state’s DMV, MVD, and so on. MVA’s use a service called SSOLV (Social Security Online Verification) to verify driver license applicants. When a person needs a license or ID card, they go to an MVA office. Staff create an “ID verification request” by entering all 9 digits of the SS#, name, and DOB into their computer. That data travels through the middleman network AAMVAnet, to the Social Security Administration, and comes right back with a response.

To verify the identities of Voter Registration applicants, states use a nearly identical program called HAVV (Help America Vote Verification). These ID verifications are sent by the same MVA department, also through AAMVAnet, to the same SSA servers. But this system seems handicapped. Only the last 4 digits of the SS# can be used. And it gets worse. (Funfact: Texas pays $480 per year for its AAMVAnet service).

GP has written about the high percentage (28%, 58%) of non-match ID verifications through the HAVV system.

Both SSOLV and HAVV are services provided by the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA). States sign agreements for programs and services provided by AAMVA. In fact, SSOLV and HAVV are so similar that they are often priced as one service and one line item on purchase orders. Note: If a voter applicant doesn’t have a driver’s license, HAVV must be used to check the identity. Some states use HAVV for more than this, including their entire database.

Voter applications come from many sources – online, paper, and applying for gov benefits. Because of this, HAVV verifications are processed differently from SSOLV. Typically, as voter applications come into a Country Recorders’ office, a list is created of those needing ID verification (a batch). These County lists are combined each day by the Secretary of State. This is then given to their MVA, who submits this “batch” at night to the Social Security Administration (SSA). The results are disseminated back to the original locations.

In 2010, the Office of Inspector General (OIG) for the SSA released a report about HAVV. Oddly, that 8-person team looked at only one issue and talked with only 10 states. They found that many HAVV requests are resubmissions of the same person, over and over. In some states, 30-70% of all requests were resubmissions. For instance, a 37-year-old Illinois man was verified 342 times on the same day.

In other examples, Ohio submitted the same voter for verification 1,778 times over an 11-day period in 2008. In 2009, they submitted the same person for verification another 13,824 times. That 77-year-old man had been dead for 4 years. The OIG report shows the same person can be processed 10, 30, even 50 times or more each year. Read on to learn why we are mentioning 18-year-old data.

Of the 10 states questioned by the OIG, 6 didn’t know why resubmissions were happening, and didn’t seem to care. Four states indicated that voter verifications were resubmitted automatically when that voter’s info was changed or updated. In 2008, about 32% of all verification transactions processed through HAVV were resubmissions. In 2009, it was about 20%.

After the report, the Social Security Administration stated it wasn’t necessary to create a process that detects or fixes why a person is submitted repeatedly. From what we can tell, not a single improvement has been made to HAVV since that 2010 report. After many unanswered FOIAs, staff at a Secretary of State office in the Midwest said, “We too are curious about HAVV data. It’s run by the DMV and somewhat of a black box to us.” (Read much more: The Gateway Pundit, 2/27/2026)  (Archive)

February 27, 2026 – Bill Clinton pleads ignorance of Epstein crimes during his deposition

Former President Bill Clinton claimed he had “no idea” about the crimes of deceased convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, stating that he “saw nothing” that gave him pause.

In a post on X, the former president shared images of his opening statement to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. In his testimony, Clinton pointed out that “as someone who grew up in a home with domestic abuse,” he would not have flown on Epstein’s plane if he “had any inkling of what he was doing.”

“I had no idea of the crimes Epstein was committing,” Clinton said in his testimony. “No matter how many photos you show me, I have two things that at the end of the day matter more than your interpretation of those 2o-year-old photos. I know what I saw, and more importantly, what I didn’t see. I know what I did, and more importantly, what I didn’t do.”

Clinton’s testimony continued:

As someone who grew up in a home with domestic abuse, not only would I not have flown on his plane if I had any inkling of what he was doing — I would have turned him in myself and led the call for justice for his crimes, not sweetheart deals.

The former president also stated that Epstein hid his crimes “from everyone so well for so long,” adding that by the time his crimes finally “came to light with his 2008 guilty plea,” he had “long stopped associating with him.”

Clinton’s statement comes a day after former first lady and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told the House Oversight Committee that she “had no idea about” Epstein’s criminal activities. (Read more: Breitbart News, 2/27/2026)  (Archive)

Former President Bill Clinton released a video statement on his Epstein deposition.

On Friday Bill Clinton testified before the House Oversight Committee on his connections to Jeffrey Epstein from an office in Chappaqua, New York.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer told reporters that Bill Clinton testified that to his knowledge President Trump was not involved with Epstein.

“Trump has never said anything to me to make me think he was involved with Epstein,” Comer said.

Fox News also reported that Bill Clinton’s lawyers stepped in several times to stop him from talking too much during the deposition.

February 26, 2026 – How the Biden regime got illegals on commercial flights; legal paperwork of convicted sex offenders was accepted as ID

Thanks to a lawsuit against TSA, disturbing new details are emerging about how illegals without traditional ID were allowed to board commercial flights during the Biden era. And buried inside the paperwork is the detail that has many Americans downright furious.

According to the lawsuit and supporting documents, illegals who were flagged as sex offenders were able to travel by presenting official paperwork related to their sex offender status.

(…) Let’s take a closer look at what the lawsuit uncovered:

Breanna Morello:

🚨FLASHBACK🚨

Ever wondered how TSA was allowing illegal aliens to board commercial flights without IDs under the Biden regime?

Well I sued TSA to find out and learned that Biden’s DHS allowed CONVICTED sex offenders on to flights by showing their sex offender paperwork.

Predators were allowed into the country if they promised to take sexual deviancy counseling and register as a sex offender.

After suing TSA, I won and now the agency is covering my legal fees.

Currently, TSA says they can’t pay my lawyer right now due to the shut down.

The documents obtained through the case help explain what critics are reacting to.

One form, titled Order of Release on Recognizance Addendum, outlines conditions placed on certain noncitizens after processing. Among the listed requirements are provisions related to substance abuse programs, sexual deviancy counseling, and sex offender registration where applicable.

A second document, the Order of Supervision checklist, includes compliance steps for individuals classified under categories such as sex offenders and substance abusers, including notification requirements and proof of counseling.

To critics, the concern is not that these conditions exist. It is that individuals requiring this level of supervision were still able to move through commercial air travel channels at all.

Here are the documents now circulating.

(…) Back in March 2024, the Daily Mail reported that the Biden administration acknowledged transporting migrants on flights into the United States as part of broader immigration processing efforts.

The report noted that hundreds of thousands of migrants were flown to dozens of U.S. airports under programs tied in part to the CBP One app expansion.

Joe Biden’s administration has admitted transporting migrants on secret flights into the U.S. and lawyers for its immigration agencies claim revealing the locations could create national security ‘vulnerabilities’.

Customs and Border Protection has refused to disclose crucial information about a program last year arranging flights for thousands of undocumented immigrants from foreign airports directly to U.S. cities.

It means that while record numbers of migrants were flowing over the southern border last year, the Biden White House was also directly transporting them into the country. Use of a cell phone app has allowed for the near undetected arrival by air of 320,000 aliens with no legal rights to enter the United States. It comes after a controversy over a 2022 transportation program in which the administration used taxpayers money to move migrants throughout the country on overnight flights.

Included in details of a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit first reported by Todd Bensman, the Center for Immigration Studies found Biden’s CBP approved the latest secretive flights that transported hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants from foreign countries into at least 43 different American airports from January through December 2023.

The program was part of Biden’s expansion of the CBP One app, which kicked off at the start of last year.

Migrants were able, under Biden’s expansion, to apply for asylum using the app from their home countries. But the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) notes that the transportation of these migrants directly to the U.S. is one of the lesser known uses of the app.

The Biden regime had the audacity to say these programs were lawful processing mechanisms designed to manage migration flows more efficiently.

So, bringing in known sex offenders and flying them around the country is standard operating procedure?

Now that these older posts are making the rounds again, people are zeroing in on the massive price tag for the flights and where many of these arrivals were actually sent.

February 28, 2026 – President Trump announces major US military combat operations in Iran

The United States together with the State of Israel have begun major military combat operations against Iran.  Early reports indicate several top Iranian military leaders have been killed.  President Trump made the announcement moments ago (video below):

According to the Associated Press (AP) “The U.S. strikes took place from both air and sea, according to a U.S. official who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss ongoing military operations.”

Associated Press – Live Reports:

The United States and Israel launched an attack Saturday on Iran, with the first apparent strike happening near the offices of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Iranian media reported strikes nationwide, and smoke could be seen rising from the capital.

President Donald Trump said in a video posted on social media that the U.S. had begun “major combat operations in Iran.” He claimed Iran has continued to develop its nuclear program and plans to develop missiles to reach U.S. (Live Reports)

February 28, 2026 – Highlights of Trump’s liberation of Iran

How many times do we have to go through this before people recognize that Trump actually knows what he is doing?

Trump is eliminating the Deep State’s militaristic capabilities worldwide.

Iran, and their terror proxies in the Middle East, are being purged. The cartels, and their terrorist organizations in the Western Hemisphere, are being purged.

Trump has been telling us for years that he is going to “obliterate” the Deep State, and that’s what he is doing. Trump has to eliminate the Deep State’s foot soldiers. The cartels and Islamic terror networks, are assets of the Deep State, that threaten the safety of everyone, and Trump knows they must be destroyed.

Iran was also the vehicle for Obama to offshore nuclear weapons directly into the hands of the ruling families. The regime must be removed and Iran returned to her People.

You want to live in a word free of the Deep State? That’s exactly what Trump is doing. It’s not always going to be sunshine and rainbows, but it must be done.

There will be no broader escalation. There will be no prolonged conflict. This will be a surgical military operation, just like everything else Trump does.

Trust Trump. He has earned it.

So many talking heads and clickbait influencers continue to get all their analysis wrong, because they don’t understand Trump or his mission.

They assume Trump is like other Presidents of the past. This is a mistake.

Trump is legitimately on a mission to destroy the Deep State, and defeat is not an option. Once you begin looking through this lens, things start making sense, and pieces of the puzzle begin to fall into place.

So many people are trying to solve an extremely complex equation, with incorrect variables. Until you recognize that Trump is the real deal and is actually doing what he said he would do, your analysis will continue to be wrong.

Update:

Unfortunately, CENTCOM reported that we suffered 3 deaths to US service members, NBC News reported the deaths happened in Kuwait, but still waiting to hear more details.

Trump confirms we are eradicating the Iranian Navy and Israel confirms we have established air superiority over Iran’s airspace.

Trump also confirmed that Iran’s remaining leadership want to negotiate, but expect the strikes on IRGC assets and capabilities to continue regardless. Trump is going to completely wipe out Iran’s offensive and defensive capabilities for the foreseeable future.

Saudi Arabia also confirmed they are willing to respond to Iran’s attacks on Riyadh.

The operation is not over, and our armed forces are still in harm’s way, but the IRGC have no path to victory, they have confirmed they are the terrorist state preventing peace in the Middle East, and the world has turned on them.

China and Russia stood down.

I believe Xi and Putin had to be somewhat in the loop on the situation via back channels. Trump must have secured complete assurances that there would be no interference or escalation, prior to any action.

Trump just had a “very positive” phone call with Xi on February 4th, in which they did discuss global military conflicts, including Iran, as well as trade/economic cooperation, and Trump confirmed he will be visiting China from March 31-April 2.

I think a backdoor agreement has already been made, and both Xi and Putin agreed Khamenei and the radical Islamic regime must go. There’s no other way this could have been pulled off. It would have been too substantial a risk to both national and global security for Trump to do this blindly.

Trump has the board secure.

Trump made a deal with nearly all the nations of the Middle East and the Muslim world, to bring peace to the region.

Peace in the region could never be accomplished so long as the Iranian regime and their terror proxies exist, so Trump is eliminating the problem, and paving the way for a stable and peaceful Middle East.

Now take it 40,000 feet. The CIA has been cleansed, strings have been cut, and Deep State destabilization of the Middle East is coming to a close. Trump is eliminating Deep State assets in the region, meaning Khamenei’s radical Islamic regime and their terror proxies like Hezbollah, Houthis, Hamas, etc.

Trump is undoing decades of CIA meddling and purging Deep State assets worldwide. Iran and their terror proxies in the Middle East, and the drug cartels in the Western Hemisphere.

Without these rogue assets and Deep State tentacles intentionally destabilizing these regions, the world will be free to move forward into a new era of peace.

It’s actually happening.

March 1, 2026 – How many children questioning their gender are on psychiatric drug “treatments?”

AbleChild can’t help but wonder why transgender individuals commit a disproportionate share of mass shooting attacks, and whether these attacks have anything to do with being prescribed mind-altering psychiatric drugs along with drugs associated with the transition process.

According to a recent study conducted by the Crime Prevention and Research Center (CPRC) between 2018 and 2024 attacks by transgender shooters was “at least 12 times their share of the population” in 2024.  Regardless of how the data is interpreted, the report makes it clear that transgender individuals commit these attacks at disproportionately high rates.

CPRC reports that “using only the FBI data over the entire period (2018-2024), transgender individuals commit active shooting attacks at 3.4 times their share of the population…” And the CPRC concludes that regardless of how the data is measured, “active shooting attacks committed by transgender individuals is becoming a serious problem.” Why? What is happening within the statistically small transgender community that is causing them to account for such a large portion of the deadly attacks?

The Uniformed Services University (USU) conducted a study in 2021 that asked whether transgender and gender-divers (TGD) adolescents experience increased mental health risk compared to non-transgender peers. The study concluded that TGD adolescents “were more likely to have a mental health diagnosis, use more mental healthcare services, and be prescribed more psychotropic medications compared to siblings.” The study also found that “among the 963 TGD youth using gender-affirming pharmaceuticals, mental healthcare did not significantly change, and psychotropic medications increased following gender-affirming pharmaceutical initiation.”

Given the lack of peer-reviewed articles about the violence that is being reported within the transgender community, it seems important to ask detailed questions that may help the public understand the increased violence. For example, one might want to know how many children were diagnosed with an alleged mental disorder and prescribed psychiatric drug “treatments” prior to ever questioning their birth gender.

Other questions might include, how many children questioning their birth gender are on psychiatric drug “treatments” when they make transition inquiries. And, one might also want to know, once the transition begins, how many of these children remain on the psychiatric drug “treatments,” while at the same time adding transition therapy drugs to their current drug cocktail.

These are important questions and would not only benefit those going through a gender crisis and who may be experiencing violent thoughts, but it would benefit the public to understand why there is an increase in transgender mass shootings.

There are too many transgender murders to list them all, but the public will remember Audrey Hale who killed six at The Covenant School in Nashville, TN, Robin Westman killed two and injured 17 at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, MN, Robert Dorgan killed three at a skating rink in Pawtucket, RI and Jesse Van Rootselaar who killed eight in Tumbler Ridge BC. It is also a fact that all the above had long histories of mental health care and were being “treated” with psychotropic drugs.

Here’s the question. It must be asked. Is it possible that the mind-altering drugs that are being prescribed can cause people to believe they are a different gender? Furthermore, is it possible that these people, already on a cocktail of mind-altering drugs for a host of alleged mental disorders, are experiencing drug induced violent behavior? Afterall, the known possible side effects of psychiatric drugs alone could make one become violent. Then, add the transition therapies and suddenly there’s a problem.

March 2, 2026 – The Final Reckoning: Dismantling the Democrat Axis of Weakness and Evil

The Final Reckoning: Dismantling the Democrat Axis of Weakness and Evil

The current kinetic reality in the Middle East is the long-overdue correction for decades of Democrat-led betrayal. While the left wing of our political class spent years engaging in a fetish for de-escalation, they effectively subsidized the most prolific state sponsor of terrorism on the planet. The strikes currently raining down upon Tehran are not mere tactical maneuvers; they are the righteous dismantling of a theocratic monster that was hand-fed by the Obama and Biden administrations. For decades, the Democrat party has operated as the unofficial legal and financial counsel for the Iranian regime, shipping pallets of cash to a government that begins its day by chanting for the destruction of our Republic.

The blood on Iranian hands is, by extension, on the hands of every leftist bureaucrat who advocated for the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). Under the Biden administration alone, Iran’s oil exports surged from approximately 400,000 barrels per day in 2020 to over 1.5 million barrels per day by 2024. This resulted in an estimated $100 billion in additional revenue for a regime that uses every cent to fund the slaughter of Americans and Israelis. This was not a mistake; it was a deliberate act of economic enabling. The Democrats are a collection of high-functioning subversives who prefer the stability of a radical caliphate to the dominance of American interests. They watched as Iran enriched uranium to 60% purity, a stone’s throw from the 90% required for a nuclear warhead, and responded with polite memos and sanctions waivers.

Avenging the Fallen and Securing the Ally
We are finally holding the mullahs accountable for a 1,400-year history of jihad and a 40-year history of American casualties. From the 241 heroes lost in the 1983 Beirut barracks bombing to the over 600 American soldiers killed by Iranian-backed IEDs in Iraq, the bill has come due. The left views these sacrifices as “sunk costs” in their pursuit of a globalist utopia, but real patriots understand that deterrence is bought with the credible threat of annihilation. By standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Israel, our frontline defender, we are preserving the only beacon of civilization in a region of shadows. Israel absorbs the rockets of Hamas and Hezbollah so that we do not have to fight them on our own streets, yet the American left treats our greatest ally like a pariah. They are more concerned with the feelings of radical insurgents than the safety of the Jewish state.

This operation is the ultimate exercise in smart power projection. Iran has become the primary hangar for Russia’s drone program and the gas station for China’s industrial machine. By vaporizing their missile factories and neutralizing their navy, we are simultaneously crippling Putin’s logistics in Ukraine and Xi’s energy security. The Democrats, in their infinite cowardice, feared that “provoking” Iran would lead to a wider war. In reality, their weakness invited it. Strength is the only language understood by the mullahs, the Kremlin, and the CCP. When the United States strikes Tehran, the world learns that the era of managed decline is over.

Furthermore, we are doing for the Iranian people what the “human rights” obsessed left never had the courage to do. The mullahs are a parasitic elite that murders women for improper dress and hangs dissidents from cranes. The left, which claims to champion women’s rights at home, remains conspicuously silent when those same rights are crushed by Islamist thugs abroad. By destroying the regime’s military infrastructure, we are providing the brave Iranian resistance with the oxygen they need to topple their oppressors. This is the Middle East edition of tearing down the Berlin Wall, a moment of moral clarity that the morally bankrupt Democrat party simply cannot comprehend.

Securing the Strait of Hormuz, through which 20% of the world’s petroleum flows, is an act of economic survival for the American worker. We will no longer allow radical clerics to hold our gas prices and our jobs hostage. While the left tries to force us into a future of unreliable “green” energy and dependency on Chinese batteries, we are securing the fossil fuels that keep the West alive. This is the conservative mandate: protect the border, protect the ally, and destroy the enemy. The Democrat party has proven it is incapable of all three. They are a party of surrender, a coalition of the weak and the wicked who have spent their lives trying to apologize for American greatness. That apology tour has ended in fire and steel.

March 3, 2026 – A new lawfare nonprofit, the Washington Litigation Group, founded by Jack Smith’s partner in crime James Pearce, is created to get Trump

James Pearce (Credit: LinkedIn)

Mike Feinberg left the FBI after his ties to Peter Strzok were discovered, following Kash Patel’s appointment as director.

On Comey leaker Ben Wittes’ podcast, Mike discussed how several of his close friends at the FBI were recently fired for their roles in Jack Smith’s election interference cases.

They also discussed how several large law firms are avoiding pro bono work. Two firms that are stepping up are Jenner & Block (where Andrew Weissmann helped lead the sham J6 Committee “investigations”) and Covington & Burling (a prominent member of the lawfare wing of Democracy Inc.).

They mentioned that a new lawfare nonprofit, the Washington Litigation Group, was created to take on the Trump administration. It was founded by Jack Smith’s partner in crime, James Pearce.

Peter Strzok’s best friend, Mike Feinberg, says people are leaving the FBI because they are being asked to do illegal and immoral things. He also said that some FBI agent quit because the FBI aren’t the good guys anymore.

To put this in context, think of all of the crimes that the FBI has committed since 2016 (including by Peter Strzok) and what they did to the J6ers.

March 4, 2026 – Democrat tells Angel Families: Sorry for your loss, but Americans are more violent than illegal aliens

During a House Judiciary Committee hearing on Wednesday, Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) told Angel Families who were present in the audience that he was “sorry,” but that Americans are more likely to be murdered by fellow Americans than illegal aliens.

“For the folks that are here and your families, I’m sorry. It’s terrible what happened to your children and family members, but they are more likely, American citizens are more likely to be attacked by United States citizens who are not undocumented who came here and who were born here,” Cohen told Angel Families. “[Americans] are more likely to commit these crimes.”

Several Angel Families, whose loved ones have been murdered by illegal aliens, sat behind Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Kristi Noem as she faced the committee.

Following Cohen’s comments, officials at the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) responded, calling the statement “reprehensible.”

“Rep. Cohen pointing to Angel Families in the audience: ‘I’m sorry for what happened to your loved ones, BUT…’ There is no ‘but,’ Rep. Cohen. Your comments here are reprehensible,” ICE officials wrote on X.

March 4, 2026 – Trump’s attack on Iran will also neuter the NGO-Administrative Complex that backs the “rules-based liberal international order”

Must read article by @DataRepublican!

The most accurate and concise explanation I’ve seen on the Iran conflict and the NGO complex. This part left me speechless:

“This is why the establishment’s condemnation of the Iran strikes is so disproportionate to the event. They are not mourning Khamenei. They are recognizing, with alarm, what Trump is actually doing. The regime change Trump is attempting is not Iran’s. It is theirs.

Every act that reasserts American sovereignty—on Iran, on trade, on immigration, on energy—is an act of regime change against the supranational order that has governed American life, foreign and domestic, for at least 70 years. The strikes on Khamenei’s compound are a demonstration that a sovereign nation, acting in its own interest, does not need institutional permission. The Trump Administration just showed that the veto the multilateral order spent decades embedding into American foreign policy—through think tanks, through NGOs, through carefully managed BRICS adversaries—can simply be ignored.

This is how the NGO-Administrative Complex dies. One sovereign act at a time.”

March 4, 2026 – Tim Walz and Keith Ellison testify to House Oversight Committee on welfare fraud in Minnesota

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison will testify today in a House Oversight Committee hearing on the massive amount of welfare fraud in the state.

The hearing, entitled “Oversight of Fraud and Misuse of Federal Funds in Minnesota: Part II,” will allow lawmakers to examine Walz and Ellison’s role in covering up the billions of dollars in fraud involving federal funds in their state.

“As fraudsters looted billions of taxpayer dollars from Minnesota’s social programs, state lawmakers recently testified that Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison ignored repeated warnings and retaliated against state employees who raised concerns. The American people deserve clear answers about how such widespread fraud was allowed to flourish under their watch,” House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) said in a statement.

“While the Department of Justice continues to investigate, prosecute, and charge those responsible, Congress also has a duty to conduct rigorous oversight of this heist and enact stronger safeguards to prevent fraud in taxpayer-funded social programs. We look forward to questioning Governor Walz and Attorney General Ellison under oath to ensure transparency and accountability for the American people and to consider meaningful reforms that prevent waste, fraud, and abuse of taxpayer funds.”

The billions of dollars stolen in Somali fraud schemes involving Minnesota daycare centers received national attention from investigating journalist Nick Shirley’s exposé late last year. It was also recently revealed that Somali fraudsters have transported nearly $1 billion in bulk cash through the Minneapolis airport alone to Somalia since 2024.

Trump has accused the Somali community in Minnesota of pillaging “an estimated $19 billion from the American taxpayer.”

“We have all the information, and in actuality, the number is much higher than that,” Trump said during his State of the Union Address.

March 5, 2026 – Congress votes to bury their own sexual harassment files and the slush fund used to payoff their victims

March 6, 2026 – Virginia Democrats will require their public schools to teach Jan. 6th as an “insurrection”

Virginia Democrats are moving to require teachers to tell students that Jan. 6th was an “insurrection” and effectively bar them from referencing “peaceful protests” or election irregularities. The characterization of the riot as an insurrection is historically and legally false. However, any parents who want to send their children to Virginia public schools would have to accept this form of indoctrination as part of their children’s education.

In the last election, Democrats campaigned as moderates, including Abigail Spanberger. Once in control of the Governor’s mansion and the legislature, however, they have moved quickly to the far left in a flurry of measures. Democratic legislators just voted themselves almost a 300% increase in salaries.  They will need it. They are moving to increase taxes on ride shares, concerts, counseling, leaf blowers, Amazon deliveries, DoorDash, Uber Eats, ammunition, and other areas.

However, HB 333, drafted by Del. Dan I. Helmer of Fairfax, raises serious concerns over academic freedom and free speech.

The summary of the bill mandates “a program of instruction on or relating to the January 6, 2021, insurrection at the United States Capitol” and further:

“prohibits any such program of instruction, any accompanying curriculum or instructional materials, or any instruction provided by a teacher as a part of such program of instruction from (i) describing, portraying, or presenting as credible a description or portrayal of the actions precipitating or involved in the January 6, 2021, insurrection as peaceful protest or (ii) stating, suggesting, or presenting as credible a statement or suggestion that there was extensive election fraud that could have changed or actually changed the results of the 2020 presidential election. The bill requires any such program of instruction, any accompanying curriculum or instructional materials, or any instruction provided by a teacher as a part of such program of instruction to describe the January 6, 2021, insurrection at the United States Capitol as an unprecedented, violent attack on U.S. democratic institutions, infrastructure, and representatives for the purpose of overturning the results of the 2020 presidential election.”

Soon after Jan. 6th, I condemned the riot but rejected the argument that this was an insurrection. However, it soon became part of an orthodoxy in politics and academia despite the fact that the public rejected it. As former House Speaker Pelosi declared, “It is essential that we preserve the narrative of January 6th.”

Yet, “insurrection” and “sedition” are legal terms. They have a meaning. The FBI investigated thousands after January 6th and charged hundreds. Not one was charged with insurrection or conspiracy to overthrow the country. The vast majority are charged with relatively minor offenses of trespass or unlawful entry or property damage- the type of charges that are common in protests and riots.

Indeed, the Supreme Court effectively reduced many of the charges to mere trespass in later litigation, rejecting obstruction claims.

Faced with a collapsing historical and legal narrative, Democrats are now moving to simply indoctrinate students that this was an “insurrection.” (Johnathan Turley, 3/6/2026)

March 6, 2026 – Matt Taibbi: The FBI’s Secret Stash Finally Uncovered

For a generation, the FBI has kept a second set of books called ‘prohibited access’ files. After a long fight, they’re finally being examined.

A Federal Bureau of Investigation task force has begun excavating the separate set of books FBI keeps using an inaccessible “prohibited access” file designation, according to multiple government sources. Though an internal fight over how to handle the files continues, embattled FBI Director Kash Patel has assigned personnel to examine decades of hidden history, Racket News has learned, with some files already turned over to Congress.

“This is it — the deep state,” one of the sources said.

Judiciary Committee Chair Chuck Grassley, whose work with whistleblowers and pressure across years was key to prying prohibited access files loose, expressed cautious optimism.

“If it weren’t for whistleblower disclosures to my office, the very existence of the FBI using ‘Prohibited Access’ files for some investigations would have remained in the dark,” he said. “I’ve asked Attorney General Bondi and Director Patel to turn over certain Prohibited Access records to Congress. I’ve received some, but am still waiting on others. I urge the DOJ and FBI to keep digging – which previous administrations apparently didn’t make any effort to do – so that the facts can come to light. The FBI’s secret stash of records is scandalous.”

Files given a prohibited access designation are not merely secret. They are “ghosts” which “do not exist,” records rigged to return false negatives when searched for in the FBI’s SENTINEL system. They’re digital descendants of paper records that as far back as Richard Nixon’s presidency were kept in locked offices, accessible to just a few officials, typically at the deputy director level and above. Currently, the number of people with the ability to access the files can be counted on one hand.

The implications of the nation’s chief federal law enforcement and counter-intelligence organization having kept a separate, non-searchable filing system are mind-boggling.

“It’s not like turning over a rock and finding a few bugs,” said retired FBI Supervisory Analyst George Hill. “It’s like turning over a manhole and finding a whole city.”

“You don’t run a Constitutional republic on secret files,” added legal analyst Margot Cleveland.

A current government source said the prohibited access designation is “literally designed to hide files from Congress and from the FBI itself. It’s really frigging bad.”

Off-books surveillance and “disruption” of political figures in the Arctic Frost and Trump-Russia investigations comprise part of the find, but the files extend at least as far back as 1999, across Democratic and Republican Party presidencies, involving as many as a thousand distinct case numbers. There are no rules for passing access to the system from one administration to the next. Instead, operation of prohibited access files is described as an oral tradition passed down among senior FBI officials, independent of agents below and political appointees above in Congress and even the White House.

Here’s how the files came to light: (Read more: Matt Taibbi/Racket News, 3/6/2026)  (Archive)

March 7-8, 2026 – IEDs are thrown at NYC protest near Gracie Mansion, two teens arrested; FBI raids suspects family homes in PA, linked to foreign radical networks

Federal authorities launched court-ordered raids in Pennsylvania after a violent protest in New York City escalated into a potential terror incident involving improvised explosive devices (IEDs).

This comes just one day after two teenage Muslim extremists hurled improvised explosive devices (IEDs) during a protest outside the mayor’s residence at Gracie Mansion in Manhattan.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, the chaos unfolded on Saturday when 18-year-old Amir Balat and 19-year-old Ibrahim Nick, allegedly launched homemade bombs during an anti-Islam protest organized by former January 6 political prisoner Jake Lang, who was pardoned by President Trump last year.

According to the New York Post, authorities said the homemade device was constructed using sports drink bottles packed with triacetone triperoxide (TATP)—a highly unstable explosive widely favored by terrorists and often referred to as the “Mother of Satan.”

Due to its extreme volatility, officials noted that TATP can detonate with minimal disturbance and typically does not require a fuse to explode.

Miraculously, the device failed to detonate. Had it exploded, officials say it could have killed or severely injured people in the crowd.

The explosive device itself is being analyzed at the FBI laboratory in Quantico, Virginia, where specialists are working to determine its exact composition and origin.

Video footage captured the second suspect, Ibrahim Nick, screaming “Allahu Akbar!” as he was arrested outside Gracie Mansion, the residence of far-left New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch announced the arrests of Balat and Nick, along with four other unidentified counter-protesters from the pro-Islam side.

“The NYPD Bomb Squad has conducted a preliminary analysis of a device that was ignited and deployed at a protest yesterday and has determined that it is not a hoax device or a smoke bomb. It is, in fact, an improvised explosive device that could have caused serious injury or death.

Further analysis will be conducted, including on a second device.

Emir Balat and Ibrahim Kayumi were arrested on scene yesterday and are in custody in connection with this matter. The NYPD is working on this investigation with our partners at the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York and the FBI through our Joint Terrorism Task Force.

I want to again thank the brave members of the NYPD who ran towards the danger without hesitation and quickly apprehended the suspects.”

But now, federal authorities are digging deeper, revealing that these aren’t just misguided kids, they’re part of a broader network with alarming links to foreign radicals.

Fox 29 reported:

The FBI and local police are investigating two Bucks County homes Sunday afternoon in connection with protests in New York City on Saturday where two people were arrested for allegedly trying to set off improvised explosive devices.

Officials are serving warrants at two homes in Bucks County — one near Durham Road and Frosty Hollow Road in Middletown Township, the other near Stoopville Road and Clymer Street in Newtown Township.

Officials said there was no threat to the public at either location, but asked that people stay away from the areas while teams investigated.

Law-enforcement sources say both suspects had become self-radicalized in recent years and had consumed extremist propaganda online.

Investigators believe the pair also traveled internationally, including trips to Turkey and other regions that have historically served as transit points for jihadist networks. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 3/9/2026)  (Archive)

Yesterday, white supremacist Jake Lang organized a protest outside Gracie Mansion rooted in bigotry and racism. Such hate has no place in New York City. It is an affront to our city’s values and the unity that defines who we are.

What followed was even more disturbing. Violence at a protest is never acceptable. The attempt to use an explosive device and hurt others is not only criminal, it is reprehensible and the antithesis of who we are.

I want to thank the brave men and women of the NYPD who acted quickly to keep New Yorkers safe. Our officers ran toward danger without hesitation, demonstrating once again the courage and dedication it takes to protect this city every single day.

My administration is closely monitoring the situation and I remain in close contact with our Police Commissioner.

News about the attempted terror attack that took place in New York over the weekend keeps coming. We learned about the families of Ibrahim Kayumi, 19, and Emir Balat, 18 earlier. Kayumi’s parents own a 5,800 square foot home in Pennsylvania and are naturalized citizens from Afghanistan while Balat’s parents come from Turkey and they were naturalized in 2017.

Now we know what charges the pair are facing, and we’re learning of a startling admission about their intent. First, we’ll get to the charges.

According to CNN, Kayumi and Balat are both facing charges of providing material support to a terrorist organization and using a weapon of mass destruction.

(…) Fox News also shared details of the complaint: “More specifically, Balat wrote on a piece of paper that he ‘pledge[d] allegiance to the Islamic state’ and Kayumi stated, in substance and in part, that he was affiliated with ISIS; watched ISIS propaganda on his phone; and was partly inspired to carry out his actions that day by ISIS.”

March 9, 2026 – CIA faces backlash after hidden document with potential cure for cancer is declassified after 60 years

A newly surfaced CIA document suggests US intelligence once reviewed research that hinted at a possible cancer treatment more than 60 years ago.

The document, produced in February 1951 and declassified in 2014, summarizes a Soviet scientific paper that examined striking similarities between parasitic worms and cancerous tumors.

The report describes how researchers believed both organisms thrived under nearly identical metabolic conditions and accumulated large reserves of glycogen, a form of stored energy.

The research also highlighted experiments showing that certain chemical compounds were capable of targeting both parasitic infections and malignant tumors.

One drug, Myracyl D, was reportedly effective against bilharzia parasites as well as cancerous growths, hinting that treatments developed for parasites might also attack tumors.

Other compounds were found to interfere with nucleic acid production, a process essential for the uncontrolled growth of cancer cells.

Experiments on mice even showed that tumor tissues reacted differently to certain chemicals than normal tissues, further reinforcing the perceived biochemical overlap between parasites and cancers.

Although the document was declassified more than a decade ago, it has recently resurfaced online, fueling outrage among some Americans who say it raises troubling questions about why Cold War research hinting at possible cancer treatments sat in intelligence archives for decades.

‘The Americans knew. They read it, classified it CONFIDENTIAL, and locked it in a vault for 60 years,’ one person shared on X, including the CIA documents in the post.

Another X user said: ‘The CIA knew from 1951 that cancer was parasites.’

However, the document itself does not say cancer is caused by parasites, only that a Soviet study noted biochemical similarities between tumors and parasitic worms and observed that some compounds affected both in experiments.

Daily Mail has contacted the CIA for comment.

The CIA document was based on a 1950 article published in the Soviet scientific journal Priroda by Professor V V Alpatov, a researcher studying the biochemical behavior of endoparasites, organisms that live inside the body of a host.

American intelligence analysts translated and circulated the paper because it was considered potentially relevant to biomedical and national defense research during the early years of the Cold War.

According to the Soviet research summarized in the report, one of the most striking similarities between parasitic worms and cancer cells was their metabolism.

Parasitic worms that inhabit the human intestine rely heavily on anaerobic metabolism, meaning they generate energy without requiring large amounts of oxygen.

March 9, 2026 – Trump targeted by four FBI code-named counterintel probes that ensnared hundreds of Americans

(Credit: Wikipedia)

President Donald Trump and his supporters were targeted by four consecutive FBI code-named counterintelligence investigations over the last decade that secretly subjected hundreds of innocent Americans to privacy-invading tactics and essentially treated the man twice elected president as a national security threat for most of the first nine years of his political career, according to interviews and documents reviewed by Just the News.

FBI Director Kash Patel has personally led the effort to review the operations code-named Crossfire Hurricane, Round River, Plasmic Echo and Arctic Frost that stretched from summer 2016 to January 2025, uncovering evidence of a far-reaching dragnet that in some cases may have been predicated on false, misleading or uncorroborated justifications, officials said.

Many of the investigative files were hidden from view, even from most FBI agents, because they were marked “prohibited access” and controlled carefully by FBI leadership.

Patel’s search has been aided by whistleblowers inside his agency, a handful of senior bureau executives close to the director and some members of Congress, particularly Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa.

FBI’s work hijacked by politics, invading citizens’ privacy

Those who have seen the records told Just the News they chronicle how the FBI’s expanded counterterrorism and counterintelligence missions after the Sept, 11, 2001, terrorist attacks eventually became hijacked by politics and led agents to deploy tools meant for terrorists and spies against everyday Americans in a bid to find a way to bring criminal cases against Trump.

One whistleblower this month told the FBI that surveillance and monitoring of Trump figures continued right up to the president’s January 2025 inauguration, according to multiple interviews.

Few inside Trump’s orbit were spared from targeting by their stature: a dozen members of Congress and their staffers, his future chief of staff Susie Wiles, journalists, campaign advisers, defense lawyers, and even Patel himself had their privacy pierced by warrants, wiretaps, FISA surveillance, phone record analysis, FBI assessments, or grand juries.

Many targets and subjects fell under the bureau’s definition of special circumstances targets because they have recognized constitutionally protected privileges – like lawyers, members of Congress, journalists, and political figures.

Even a political consultant turned documentary filmmaker who investigated Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings before joining Trump’s 2024 campaign was recently notified he was targeted in a criminal investigation that only recently was shut down, according to letters between Congress and the FBI reviewed by Just the News.

Michael Caputo had his emails and communications seized in 2023 by a “classified subpoena” issued about two weeks after he joined the Trump campaign and the email account the bureau penetrated “contained correspondence on The Trump Campaign’s private strategies and deliberations,” the correspondence stated.

Patel’s FBI has informed Congress that probe has been shut down. But the question of how so many Americans were targeted remains open.

At least 1,200 people that fall into the categories of special circumstances targets or subject were investigated under assessments by the FBI between 2018 and 2024 during Wray’s tenure, an explosive recent audit report to Congress revealed.

March 8, 2026 – Newly released body cam footage proves The Institute of Peace refused to allow government employees to enter and shut it down

Employees from the Institute of Peace attempt to block government employees from entry when they arrived to shut it down. (Credit: public domain)

In early May 2025, we learned from a FOX interview with Elon Musk and Big Balls that the Institute of Peace had nothing to do with peace. DOGE went into the office that housed the institute and found government waste, loaded weapons, and employees that tried to destroy data before they entered.

This newly released body cam footage from the March 2025 DOGE raid on the US Institute of Peace shows the insane resistance the Trump team faced from day one.

As Edward Coristine (aka Big Balls) told Jesse Watters last year, this was the “least peaceful” of all the agencies to deal with, and that it used taxpayer funds for private jets, an armory filled with weapons, and contracts with the former members of the Taliban (!!)

These are grown adults in full meltdown mode because they realized the gravy train was coming to an end. They referred to lawful orders as “jackbooted police state actions” while refusing to vacate the premises after President Trump issued an order firing them and sending in his DOGE team to clean house.

What you see in this video isn’t democracy, it’s an insight into how wild and entitled the DC swamp had grown.

Even the officers who were on the scene to ensure order became impatient after realizing these defiant bureaucrats weren’t even USIP employees when one said, “we’re their lawyers” who were trying to regain access to “classified information” pertaining to “other cases” outside of USIP’s purview.

George Foote, one of the lawyers there, even pushed to have Trump officials arrested as “unauthorized intruders.”

Elon Musk later revealed on X that USIP’s chief accountant attempted to wipe over a terabyte of financial data in a desperate cover-up – but DOGE recovered it, and it’s now with the DOJ for review.

Unelected ideologues fleecing taxpayer dollars shouldn’t block the people’s choice. This is what draining the swamp looks like, and it’s horrifying just how out of control it had all become.

March 9, 2026 – Cops swarm Jeffrey Epstein’s Zorro ranch to search for bodies of two girls strangled during rough sex sessions

The sad story of at least two girls killed during rough sex sessions at Jeffrey Epstein’s remote New Mexico ranch is closer to being told, following a massive police swoop on the 7,500 acre property.

For years talk of the deaths has swirled around Zorro Ranch in the tiny town of Stanley, 30 miles south of the state capital, Santa Fe – but the identities of the girls have never been known.

Now, law enforcement is confident it can find the bodies if they exist and put names to the dead girls.

Agents from the state Department of Justice, along with police and the local sheriff’s office, started the search on Monday and continued into Tuesday.

The investigation is running in parallel to a truth commission that was unanimously set up by local lawmakers last month to try to find out exactly what went on at Zorro.

‘We have heard years of allegations and rumors about Epstein’s activities in New Mexico, but unfortunately, federal investigations have failed to put together an official record,’ said State Representative Andrea Romero, who led the fight to establish the commission, and is one of its four members.

‘With this truth commission, we can finally fill in the gaps by investigating the failures that led to the horrific allegations of abuse and crime at Zorro Ranch, so we can learn from them and prevent such atrocities from taking place in our state going forward.’

The operation began just the day after hundreds of protesters gathered at the ranch, now renamed Rancho de San Rafael by its new owner. (Read more: Daily Mail, 3/10/2026)  (Archive)

March 10, 2026 – DC Bar Counsel initiates formal disciplinary proceedings against Ed Martin, leader of the Weaponization Working Group within the DOJ

The same DC Bar that is now trying to disbar Ed Martin for carrying out the president’s executive orders did not disbar Kevin Clinesmith, the man who literally fabricated evidence to secure a spy warrant on the Trump campaign.

We all know that the DC Bar is thoroughly corrupt (as are the DC courts) but there are ways to make them pay. Haul them before Congress, not because it will achieve anything, but to tie them down and force them to spend huge sums. Hit them with legal actions, drain their resources, and exploit every procedural lever to make their lives difficult. There needs to be far more outside-the-box thinking on these matters.

March 10, 2026 – “Hero” police officer on Hakeem Jeffries’ Jan. 6 memorial plaque placed in the Capitol, is indicted on 9 felony counts including abduction, drugging and rape

(Credit: The Gateway Pundit)

A former Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officer, hailed as a “hero” on a controversial Capitol plaque honoring law enforcement’s response to the January 6, 2021 protests, has been slapped with a superseding indictment on multiple felony counts, including rape, sodomy, and abduction.

Timothy Valentin is currently sitting behind bars facing a mountain of felony charges.

Timothy Valentin is among the officers whose names appear on the controversial January 6 memorial plaques shoved down America’s throat by radical Democrats.

This is the same plaque pushed by House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and his cronies, all while they continue to demonize peaceful Trump supporters as “domestic terrorists.”

March 10, 2026 – Left-wing activists are training juries to sabotage Trump DOJ cases

 

Last month, Townhall reported how a Left-wing activist group in Minnesota was advising citizens how to “resist” federal immigration laws by providing jury nullification training. That group, Defend612 seeks to “support resistance to the ICE occupation in Minneapolis” and ran two virtual sessions titled “The People’s Pardon or Jury Nullification” at the end of February.

It seems this push to undermine our judicial system and the Trump administration is spreading, with reports that a Leftist activist group is doing the same thing in the Washington D.C. area and in other places across the country.

Here’s more:

A left-wing activist group is teaching liberals in Washington, D.C., and “across the United States” how to increase their chances of serving as jurors on cases brought by the Trump Department of Justice so they can undermine its chances of securing convictions, training materials reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon show.

Freedom Trainers, whose fiscal sponsor is the George Soros-funded group Community Change, is working to make “jury nullification”—the practice of voting against a conviction even if the defendant broke the law—a go-to legal weapon for the Left. Its sessions and training materials, reviewed by the Free Beacon, show how the group teaches “committed people” to gum up federal prosecutions.

The group tells attendees to keep their addresses current to ensure they receive summons. Then, during the jury selection process, it advises them to “Never mention jury nullification,” “Don’t signal an agenda,” and “say you’ll listen to the evidence before forming conclusions.” Once selected, the group tells its trainees to vote “not guilty” for any reason.

There is no institution the Left won’t destroy in order to “resist” President Trump and Republicans. Of course, this can backfire on them in many ways, including leading to mistrials and legal consequences for jurors who misrepresent themselves during jury selection.

Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett’s security officer was fatally shot by Dallas SWAT officers this week.

The security officer, Mike King, was a fugitive after impersonating a law enforcement officer.

King was killed in his garage during a standoff with Dallas SWAT officers on Wednesday night.

According to CBS News, he drove a “replica undercover police vehicle” with license plates “stolen from cars outside a military recruiting office.”

King reportedly has an extensive criminal history.

March 11, 2026 – Why are important Bills passed by the House and then languish in the Senate, while both are controlled by Republicans?

Let’s talk about the real obstruction in Washington right now.

Not the Democrats.
Not the media.

It’s the Republican Senate leadership slow-walking President Donald Trump’s agenda.

And the man holding the gavel is @LeaderJohnThune.

Thune is 64 years old.
He has spent nearly three decades in Washington.

And right now, under his leadership, the Senate has become a graveyard for Trump-backed legislation passed by the House.

Bills that the American people demanded.
Bills that House Republicans delivered.

Bills that the Senate has sat on for over a year.

Let’s look at the receipts.

430+ DAYS gathering dust in the Senate:

• SAVE Act (H.R. 22) — Proof of citizenship to vote. Introduced Jan. 3, 2025. Still sitting. (~430+ days)

• Halt All Lethal Trafficking of Fentanyl Act (H.R. 27) — Crush fentanyl trafficking. (~430+ days)

• Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act (H.R. 28) — Keep men out of women’s sports. (~430+ days)

• Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act — Require medical care for babies born alive after abortion attempts. (~430+ days)

• Action Versus No Action Act (H.R. 184) — Speed up forest management and energy development. (~430+ days)

• Multiple border security and energy protection bills from early 2025. (~430+ days)

More bills rotting in Senate limbo:

• Epstein Files Transparency Act (H.R. 4405) — Release Epstein-related records. (~300+ days)

• Clear Skies Act (H.R. 4403) — Energy and environmental deregulation. (~300+ days)

• Tribal Trust Land Homeownership reforms — (~300+ days)

• BOWOW Act of 2025 (H.R. 4638) — (~250+ days)

• Stop the Sexualization of Children Act (H.R. 7661) — (~200+ days)

• Deporting Fraudsters Act of 2026 (H.R. 1958) — (~200+ days)

• DHS funding / border security bills for 2026 — sitting unfinished. (~200+ days)

• Wintergreen Emergency Egress Act (H.R. 6365) — (~100+ days)

• Housing for the 21st Century Act (H.R. 6644) — (~90-100 days)

And now the big one:

SAVE America Act (H.R. 7296)
Passed the House Feb. 11, 2026 (218-213).

Trump’s top legislative priority right now.

Proof of citizenship to vote.
Photo ID requirements.
Protections for women’s sports.
Restrictions on transgender procedures for minors.
Limits on mass mail-in voting loopholes.

And what has the Senate done?

Nothing.

About 40 days and counting.

Meanwhile President Trump has made it crystal clear:

No signatures on other legislation until the SAVE America Act moves.

Because Trump understands something Senate Republicans apparently don’t:

If elections aren’t secure, none of the rest of this matters.

So the question for @LeaderJohnThune and Senate Republicans is simple:

Why are House-passed bills sitting for 430+ days?

Why is the Senate slow-walking the very agenda voters elected Trump to deliver?

Why does the Republican Senate look like a bureaucratic parking lot instead of a legislative engine?

At some point, excuses run out.

The American people didn’t vote for a Republican Senate that behaves like a speed bump.

They voted for a government that actually moves the agenda forward.

And right now, the Senate isn’t moving.

It’s stalling.

The clock is ticking.

Pass the bills.

Or explain to the voters why you won’t.

TO THE SPINELESS FUCKS IN CONGRESS…

Listen closely, you marble-mouthed, donor-fellating invertebrates who dare call yourselves Senate Republicans.

Katie Miller just dropped the unvarnished truth like a guillotine:

“If President Trump can risk his freedom fighting for you, Senate Republicans can risk long nights and weekends.”

And yet here you sit…polished, perfumed, paralyzed…while the Republic you swore to defend hemorrhages at the border, the bureaucracy, and the ballot box.

Let us recount, with the cold precision of a historian carving open the corpse of a betrayed empire, exactly what Donald J. Trump has endured to save this nation from the abyss you helped dig.

Two grotesque impeachments, fabricated from whole cloth by the same swamp creatures he pledged to drain…pure theater, engineered to neuter the one man who refused to kneel.

Ninety-one felony indictments across four kangaroo jurisdictions:

the New York hush-money financial jihad, the Georgia RICO election-interference farce, the classified-documents entrapment trap, the January 6th Soviet-style show trial.

All of it lawfare, not justice…designed to bankrupt him, cage him, and crucify his movement before the people could speak.

Mar-a-Lago raided like a Third World dictatorship.

Gag orders.

Mugshots.

Trials deliberately timed to eclipse his campaign.

Two assassination attempts…one with a bullet grazing his skull, blood streaking his face while Secret Service agents bled beside him; the second thwarted only by raw providence.

Media bloodhounds baying for his head 24/7, painting him as everything from Hitler to a Russian asset while the real predators…open borders, endless wars, cultural castration…devoured the country he loves.

He lost businesses, friends, privacy, safety, and nearly his life.

Not for glory.

Not for money.

For you.

For the working stiffs abandoned by your bipartisan rot.

For the Republic the Founders pledged their “lives, fortunes, and sacred honor” to defend…words Trump has lived while you merely tattoo them on your sleeves for campaign mailers.

And what do you offer in return, you psychological cripples?

A masterclass in self-preservation masquerading as prudence. Your lizard brains…hardwired by decades of K-Street capture, donor dopamine hits, and terror of the next primary…compute only risk aversion.

Cognitive dissonance so profound you’ve convinced yourselves that “governing responsibly” means slow-walking the very mandates Trump just delivered in a landslide.

Extended sessions?

Too burdensome for your delicate calendars.

Abolishing the filibuster…the bastard child of Aaron Burr’s procedural sabotage, later weaponized by segregationist Democrats and now your favorite shield against real change?

God for fucking bid.

You’d rather perform midnight monologues for C-SPAN cameras than actually legislate like men who remember 1776.

This is betrayal with a smile.

Historical precedent screams the verdict:

Roman senators who stabbed Caesar while praising the Republic they murdered; Vichy collaborators clutching their privileges while the nation burned; Federalist Papers warning that ambition must counteract ambition…yet your ambition counteracts nothing except the will of the voters who just handed Trump the gavel.

You are not statesmen.

You are psychological captives…Stockholm syndrome wrapped in Brooks Brothers, terrified that matching Trump’s sacrifice might cost you a subcommittee chair or a future lobbying gig.

So twist the knife deeper, you gutless fucks.

Trump risked prison, bullets, and bankruptcy to drag this country back from the cliff.

The least you spineless reptiles can do is risk a few all-nighters and some weekend conference calls. Pass the damn bills.

Kill the filibuster.

Secure the border.

Defund the deep state.

Time to bleed for the Republic you claim to love. Or admit you never fucking did.

March 12, 2026 – Ilhan Omar’s ties to her sister’s Minneapolis Health Clinic, Somali Health Company

Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-MN) web of shady family ties goes even deeper than her alleged marriage to her brother — reportedly using her political offices to secure millions of dollars for a Minneapolis health clinic operated by her sister, who is married to a top Somali government official.

Omar’s elder sister, Sahra Noor, states on her LinkedIn profile that she was the CEO of People’s Center Clinics & Services from July 2014 to April 2018. In January 2017, Omar began her two-year term as a member of the Minnesota House of Representatives.

People’s Center is in the Minneapolis neighborhood of Cedar-Riverside, nicknamed “Little Mogadishu” for its high Somali migrant population, many of whom do not speak English.

The 2017 capital budget approved by the state legislature included $2.2 million for the clinic, which operates as a nonprofit that has received $33 million in Health and Human Services (HHS) grants since 2002.

While People’s Center has an active contract pharmacy agreement for HHS’s 340B Drug Pricing Program with “Degdeg’s Carepoint Pharmacy,” signed by Noor in 2015, the pharmacy lost its license in 2017 and is listed as “permanently closed” on Google Maps.

Omar boasted about getting the $2.2 million for the clinic that was being run by her sister at the time, celebrating the renovations it completed in 2022 along with Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey (D), state Sen. Omar Fateh (D-MN), and other Democrats:

(…) As a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, Omar secured another $1 million for clinic renovations, stating in April 2022 that “neither I nor my immediate family has any financial interest in this project.”

In April 2024, People’s Center credited Omar for getting them $1 million in congressionally directed funding.

When the media was asking Omar and her family difficult questions about the nature of her multiple marriages, one allegedly to her brother, Noor left her CEO position and moved back to Africa, running her own healthcare consultancy called Grit Partners in Kenya — which she claimed facilitated “peer learning session” projects funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).

Noor’s husband, Mohamed Keynan, held multiple positions within the Minnesota state and local governments before also moving back to Africa to work as chief of staff to then-Somali Prime Minister Hassan Ali Khayre and policy advisor to then-President Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed, commonly known as Farmaajo.

Prior to becoming one of the top advisors in Somalia, Keynan’s LinkedIn states he was a management analyst in the Minnesota Department of Human Services, a city planning commissioner in the Twin Cities suburb of Roseville, and a contracts manager for Hennepin County.

March 12, 2026 – Ex-Virginia National Guard soldier convicted of trying to provide support to ISIS, opens fire at Old Dominion University

The madman who opened fire at Old Dominion University on Thursday, killing a retired military officer instructing an ROTC class, has been identified as an ex-National Guard soldier convicted of trying to support ISIS, The Post has learned.

Mohamed Bailor Jalloh, 36, stormed into a classroom inside ODU’s Constant Hall and asked if it was an ROTC class. When someone confirmed that it was, he launched the suspected terror attack, shooting the professor several times, law enforcement sources said.

A heroic ROTC cadet at the Virginia school jumped into action to prevent more carnage, stabbing Jalloh to death after the crazed suspect gunned down the class instructor, the sources said.

(…) In 2017, Jalloh, a former member of the Virginia National Guard, was sentenced to 11 years in prison for attempting to provide material support to ISIS and the ISIL, according to the Department of Justice.

A naturalized US citizen from Sierra Leone, Jalloh left the National Guard and became a devoted follower of Anwar al-Awlaki, the slain leader of Al-Qaeda’s branch in the Arabian Peninsula, the DOJ said.

He connected with members of the ISIL during a six-month stay in Africa. During one meeting on the trip, unknowingly observed by an FBI informant, Jalloh mentioned a desire to launch his own terror attack, the DOJ said. (Read more: New York Post, 3/12/2026)  (Archive)

March 13, 2026 – All members of Texas Antifa cell convicted in first Federal terrorism trial

(Credit: Andy Ngo)

Nine defendants accused of a July 4, 2025 ambush on a Texas ICE facility faced charges including providing support to terrorists and attempted murder of federal officers.

FORT WORTH, Texas — A federal jury in Fort Worth, Texas has convicted all nine members of a North Texas Antifa cell in the first federal Antifa terrorism trial in U.S. history.

The verdict followed two full days of deliberations after a trial that lasted 12 days.

Benjamin Song, Cameron Arnold (a Trantifa known as “Autumn Hill”), Bradford Morris (another Trantifa activist known as “Meagan Morris”), Zachary Evetts, Savanna Batten, Maricela Rueda, Elizabeth Soto, Ines Soto and Daniel Rolando Sanchez-Estrada were indicted last year on federal charges including providing material support to terrorists, rioting, use of an explosive device and obstruction.

Jurors found the defendants guilty of providing material support to terrorists, rioting, conspiracy to use/carry explosives and using/carrying explosives.

The jury acquitted the group on two of the charges: aiding attempted murder and aiding firearm discharge.

Benjamin Song, whom prosecutors described as the ringleader, wasn’t charged with the explosives-related charges but was convicted of the more serious attempted murder of a peace officer as well as multiple counts related to discharging a firearm during a crime of violence. The other defendants were acquitted on those firearm counts.

Daniel Rolando Sanchez-Estrada, a Mexican national, was found guilty of conspiracy to conceal documents and corruptly concealing documents or records after the attack. His partner, Maricela Rueda, was also found guilty of conspiracy to conceal documents after telling him to hide her far-left extremist texts.

The defendants, described by prosecutors as members of a North Texas Antifa cell, were accused of carrying out an ambush-style shooting attack on the Prairieland ICE detention facility in Alvarado, Texas on July 4, 2025.

March 13, 2026 – Hillary Clinton non-profit launches Epstein deposition-related merchandise

Hillary Clinton’s political nonprofit is offering merchandise referencing contempt as the former secretary of state recently testified before the House Oversight Committee during its investigation into Jeffrey Epstein.

On the shop page for Clinton’s nonprofit organization, Onward Together, apparel, including hats, sweatshirts, and t-shirts bearing the phrase “Hold me in contempt until the cows come home,” is currently available for purchase.

The slogan references when members of the House Oversight Committee voted this year to recommend holding Bill and Hillary Clinton in contempt of Congress as part of the panel’s investigation into Jeffrey Epstein. The Clintons had previously offered to provide sworn written statements rather than appear in person, but committee chairman Rep. James Comer (R-KY) insisted they testify live before the panel.

(…) Clinton has continued political activity through Onward Together, the nonprofit organization she launched in 2017 after losing the 2016 presidential election to Donald Trump. The group, structured as a 501(c)(4), can raise funds without publicly disclosing donors, a type of political funding commonly known as “dark money.”

She criticized the influence of “dark money” during her presidential campaign and called for a constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision, which cleared the way for nonprofits to spend unlimited sums of money through the 501(c)(4) designation.

March 13, 2026 – NY Gov. Kathy Hochul voices concern over wealthy NY’ers leaving the state; appeals for their return

Kathy Hochul makes public remarks at a Politico New York Agenda Summit in Albany, and acknowledges the state’s reliance on high-net-worth residents for tax revenue and urged them to return after many had left for lower-tax states like Florida.

In response to pressures from figures like NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani to raise taxes on the wealthy, Hochul highlighted the erosion of the tax base due to out-migration of affluent residents and businesses.

Key quotes from her remarks,: “I need people who are high net worth to support the generous social programs that we want to have in our state.”

“There are some patriotic millionaires who want to step up. OK, cut me the checks.”

“If you want to be supportive, the first step would be, OK, go down to Palm Beach and see who you bring back home because our tax base has become eroded.”

In this segment from The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show, the hosts discuss and react to New York Governor Kathy Hochul’s recent public statements urging wealthy residents—particularly millionaires who have left the state to return to New York. They frame her comments as a desperate plea for high-income earners to come back and essentially subsidize the state’s expansive welfare programs and budget through their tax contributions.

The discussion highlights ongoing concerns about New York’s population and tax-base exodus in recent years, with many affluent individuals and businesses relocating to lower-tax states like Florida and Texas. Travis and Sexton criticize Hochul’s approach as tone-deaf, arguing it exposes the unsustainable nature of New York’s high-tax, high-spending policies that rely heavily on wealthy residents to fund social services and government programs.

March 13, 2026 – Data Republican dresses down retired Naval War College professor, Tom Nichols, after he tweets Pete Hegseth

Hello Professor Nichols,

You spent twenty-five years at the Naval War College. You taught the officers who would go on to run America’s wars. Famously, you never served in any of them.

In February 2003, you were at your desk in Newport when you wrote this, about Colin Powell’s presentation to the United Nations: “There is only one thing to say about Secretary Powell’s presentation at the U.N.: If this doesn’t do it, nothing will.” You were confident. You were expert. You were wrong. You acknowledged this twenty years later in The Atlantic — the invasion was, in your own words, “one of the greatest geopolitical disasters in American history.”

You wrote that from the same institution you are now defending.

The Senior Service Colleges produced the officers who managed the Afghanistan withdrawal. General Mark Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. General Kenneth McKenzie, CENTCOM commander. On September 28, 2021, both testified before the Senate Armed Services Committee that they had recommended keeping 2,500 troops in Afghanistan.

The recommendation was not followed. They did not resign or say a word publicly. Then 13 American service members died at Abbey Gate on August 26, 2021. Only after that did they testify.

Your response, in The Atlantic, August 16, 2021: “Afghanistan Is Your Fault.”

Not the generals your institutions trained and credentialed. Not the curriculum that built the career-preserving, NSC-deferring officer class that drove those decisions to their conclusion. The American public, with our short attention span and our SUVs.

General Milley, whose career your institution shaped, secretly called his PLA counterpart twice, October 30, 2020 and January 8, 2021, and assured him the US would not strike China, and that Milley would warn him personally if an attack were ordered. You wrote “Trump Put Milley in an Impossible Position.”

That’s not all. Secretary Austin concealed a cancer diagnosis from the White House and Congress for weeks while incapacitated; the DoD Inspector General documented it. At his farewell address in September 2023, Milley publicly called his former commander-in-chief a “wannabe dictator.”

You found none of this worth a column.

Anthony Tata is a retired Brigadier General. He commanded forces in Afghanistan and Iraq. He led soldiers in both wars. And now he has been asked to conduct a 90-day curriculum review of the Senior Service Colleges. Your objection is that he lacks the credentials for the job.

You wrote a whole book about credentials. The foundational knowledge of the average American is, in your assessment, “plummeting to aggressively wrong.” Institutions must be insulated from the ignorant. Expertise must not be questioned by those who haven’t earned it.

The men who earned your institution’s credentials – over twenty-plus years of your tenure – presided over two of the longest military failures in American history. They managed those failures in line with everything the War Colleges taught them: subordinate military judgment to civilian direction, preserve the relationship, testify about it later. They retired with honors.

That is what “expertise” means to you.

The question Pete Hegseth is asking isn’t whether the War Colleges have credentials. It’s whether the credentials mean anything. After twenty-five years on your faculty training generals who only know how to lose war, Professor Nichols, you are the wrong man to answer that.

You have changed the course of his life forever, and revealed him to the leftist ghouls who will demand his blood for forever. It doesn’t matter if he was planning to reveal his identity eventually. You still made that choice. And I will make sure you are remembered for this.

So, what was CP’s sin such that you saw it fit to throw him to the wolves?

Last month, he dared to write an article for American Greatness, centered around nine recommendations for War College reform. The recommendations included firing most civilian faculty and ending permanent military faculty positions.

You hold a permanent civilian faculty position at a War College. You did not mention this in your article.

In short, you named him, exposed his life to danger, because you really are arguing for your job and self-preservation.

Know what is the most disgusting, hypocritical part of this is?

In the Fall 2017 issue of eARMOR (the U.S. Army Armor Branch professional journal) you published an article. You titled it “Our Readiness Problem: Brigade Combat Team Lethality.” You opened with General Milley: “Our fundamental task is like no other — it is to win in the unforgiving crucible of ground combat.” Your thesis: “If we are to get after GEN Milley’s No. 1 priority, we must first address brigade combat team (BCT) lethality.” The word “lethality” appears in your article about fifty times. You meant it as a compliment.

Now contrast to today’s piece. You wrote this: “In staking out this Huntingtonian position, the cult of lethality does a disservice to service members and the American people.”

The same word. Nine years apart. You were a field commander then, and lethality was the mission. You are a faculty member now, and lethality is what your critics embarrassingly worship.

Frankly – and you will never realize this – but you yourself are the living, walking example of the thesis which @PeteHegseth is proving.

Also, you named a section of today’s article after Colin Powell. You called him your model of what War College education produces. Colin Powell endorsed Barack Obama in 2008, endorsed Joe Biden in 2020, and publicly called Donald Trump “dangerous for our democracy.” Powell, who infamously tipped the scales at the UN to start the Iraq war even after privately doubting the WMD intelligence, is your hero in an article about who gets to reform the military in 2026.

In addition to being a doxxer, you look a lot less like someone who’s defending institutions, and a lot more like someone who exemplifies institutional capture in the name of self-preservation. And you disclosed none of it.

Let me reiterate.

@CynicalPublius wrote under a pseudonym and identified himself as a retired Army colonel with Afghanistan and Iraq experience. He argued about curriculum policy. You responded by putting his name on the internet.

Your career depends on the institutions you are defending. Your article defending those institutions is the same article that ended his anonymity.

You taught your students about the instruments of national power, Professor Duplessis. You are now a living, breathing demonstration one of them. And why reform must happen.

Ryan Evans, CEO of War on the Rocks

We published the real name of the person writing under the Cynical Publius pseudonym, which he used to bully, insult, and direct widespread harassment. That person’s name was already widely known. Aside from mentioning that he is a veteran, something Thomas himself discusses, the article didn’t discuss any other personal information. Further, Thomas himself has said on X that he is revealing his name on Tuesday so this is all a bullshit, elaborate PR exercise in which you, Data Republican, and of course Thomas are treating your followers like they are dumbasses.

UPDATE 3/15/26:

Hello Mr. Evans,

Today, War on the Rocks published a “rebuttal” which disclosed the real-life identity of
@CynicalPublius. What the article did not mention: you had already posted his name on Bluesky before the WOTR piece published. The WOTR article cited his being “already known” as justification for printing his name. The person who made him “already known” was you. You manufactured the predicate for your own publication’s decision.

You then blocked me. And then called me out. Repeatedly. You engaged me, mentioned me, tagged me — even said publicly that you were looking forward to what I had written about War on the Rocks.

Blocking someone on a platform and then continuing to publicly engage them is not what a person who wants to be left alone does. It is what a person who wants the attention without the accountability does.

You’re framing your own just desserts as a “mass witch hunt” initiated by a Hello post I addressed to Brad Duplessis, your contributor, who named Cynical Publius in his debut WOTR piece without disclosing that Anderson’s recommendations for War College reform included eliminating the kind of permanent civilian faculty position Duplessis holds.

You are being dunked on because of what you did to Cynical Publius, not because of anything I wrote. Blaming the letter for the blowback is like blaming the smoke alarm for the fire.

Cynical Publius wrote that military institutions had drifted from their original professional mission toward ideological conformity and required reform. You responded by publishing his name. The question your letter to me does not answer — and the question a lot of people are now asking — is why an outlet that once existed to challenge that kind of institutional behavior became the one enforcing it.

You yourself provide answers to that question.

You launched War on the Rocks because you understood something true: the United States had spent two decades losing wars it shouldn’t have lost.

Twelve years later, when a pseudonymous retired Army officer argues that the War Colleges have drifted from warfighting competence toward ideological conformity, the platform you built publishes his name in the opening sentence.

That is not an accident of character. It is how institutions stop being able to learn. Armies that cannot receive criticism cannot conduct honest after-action review. Institutions that cannot correct what they’re getting wrong keep losing — and keep being surprised that they’re losing, because the people tasked with explaining the failures are the same people defending the institutions that produced them.

In short: Mr. Evans, you have been captured by the foreign policy expert class has presided over Afghanistan, Iraq, and Libya. And you don’t even realize it.

Wake up.

And be on the lookout for a Substack article where I explain your history more thoroughly.

Unfortunately Brad is a clear example of institutional capture. It’s hard to wrap my head around a retired Army officer teaching at a PME school, doxxing another retired Army officer that he disagrees with bc of his politics. It’s the equivalent of an ALO lighting up a “friendly” to eliminate the competition back home bc he felt threatened by a team mate.

He personifies the institutional rot and evil nature of ppl in a system that will sacrifice everything and everyone for “the system”. Mentioning Powell as an icon is brain numbingly retarded. I’ve met Powell a few times. Everyone I met at the Pentagon (Army of otherwise) had zero respect for him except the politicians. He was a useful tool. He, like Brad, sold his soul. Powell was referred to as a Beltway bandit. Even when he wasn’t assigned in DC he was a frequent visitor. He was a paper general and not a leader, so it’s no surprise Brad would put him on a pedestal while throwing .@CynicalPublius in front of the approaching enemy forces.

The positive: Brad exposes the danger @PeteHegseth identified as hazardous to the future of our military. Instead of intellectually engaging a peer, he picked up a proverbial weapon and stabbed him in the back. He personifies the PME cadre that are spineless, vile, intellectually weak personnel teaches our war fighters while clinging to the losers of yesteryear that spent 3 decades attriting our military in body bags.

Brad blocked me a long time ago because he is a weak man with zero balls. Fuck you Brad, may you rot in hell with the rest of your idols.

Cynical, Brad Duplessis and Ryan Evans’ actions were reprehensible—pure and simple.

Duplessis, still drawing a paycheck as an assistant professor at the Army Command and General Staff College, used his War on the Rocks debut (a platform he couldn’t wait to exploit) to doxx you—without any disclosure of his glaring conflict of interest. His own past writings gushed over “lethality” (dozens of mentions), yet now he hypocritically attacks the very reforms you advocate that threaten bloated civilian roles like his. Ryan Evans, as WOTR’s founder and CEO, approved and published this hit piece, greenlighting the exposure that invited mob harassment and death threats against a fellow veteran who simply called out institutional failures.

This wasn’t scholarship or debate; it was cowardly, self-serving gatekeeping by insiders desperate to shield their sinecures, tenure tracks, grants, and power from real accountability.

They proved your point about war colleges being captured by the wrong priorities—ideology over warfighting, conformity over lethality, bureaucracy over readiness.

Duplessis should be stripped of his taxpayer-funded position training officers at a military institution meant to build warriors, not protect academic bloat. The powers that be should ensure he slides any pension he may receiver. Boot Evans from any role influencing national security discourse.

Then sue them into eternity for the doxxing, the resulting threats, the breach of trust, and the damage done—especially since they knew (or should have known) the risks to a vet speaking truth.

This rot runs deep in these places, turning forge-of-warriors into echo chambers that helped deliver Afghanistan-level disasters.

Your raw, unfiltered X insights teach more genuine strategy, critical thinking, and reform urgency than these frauds ever will from their safe lecterns.

Props again to DR for shining the light on the hypocrisy, hidden conflicts, and defense of a broken system.

You’re not backing down, and neither should we.

America’s military deserves warriors educated by truth-tellers, not these entrenched phonies.
Keep hammering, friend.

No, Ryan.

What you did to Cynical Publius wasn’t journalism, wasn’t courage, and sure as hell wasn’t “countering bullying.”

It was a gutless, calculated doxxing of a combat veteran whose only crime was wielding a pseudonym to gut the sacred cows of your precious military-education cartel with more precision than your entire editorial staff could muster in a lifetime.

You dragged his real name into the light like some cheap tabloid hitman, not because he posed a physical threat, but because his ideas…raw, unfiltered, and surgically lethal…threatened the cozy sinecures, the civilian faculty fiefdoms, and the intellectual rot you’ve spent years polishing into tenure-track respectability.

This wasn’t about “accountability.” This was projection on steroids.

You saw a man who refused to play your polite institutional game…a man who chose anonymity not out of cowardice but out of tactical necessity, the same way special operators don’t sign their real names on every after-action report…and you couldn’t stomach it.

So you weaponized your platform to strip him bare, all while hiding behind the fig leaf of “he was going public anyway.”

Bullshit.

That’s the excuse of a bully who just got caught with his fist raised.

You didn’t expose a threat; you exposed your own fragility.

The second a pseudonymous voice started dismantling the war-college echo chamber with veteran credibility you’ll never match, your instinct wasn’t debate…it was destruction.

Classic authoritarian reflex dressed up as professionalism.

You don’t get to doxx veterans, Ryan.

Not for political disagreement, not for “harassment” you conveniently redefine as anyone who makes your faculty friends squirm, and especially not when that veteran has bled for the same institutions you now gatekeep like a fucking hall monitor with a PhD.

Cynical’s anonymity was his armor; you ripped it off not to protect anyone, but to punish dissent and send a message to every other independent mind:

toe the line or we’ll burn your cover.

That’s not defense of the realm.

That’s the behavior of a man who’s internalized the very bureaucratic cancer he claims to oppose…petty, vindictive, and terrified of real scrutiny.

You are the bully here, Ryan Evans.

Full stop.

The venom you injected into that article wasn’t righteous; it was the desperate hiss of a cornered insider watching his narrative monopoly crack.

And the rest of us…veterans, reformers, anyone who still believes ideas should be fought with ideas, not personal destruction…see it for exactly what it is:

a moral failure wrapped in editorial sanctimony.

Next time you want to play tough guy, try it with your own name on the line instead of someone else’s blood-earned service record.

Until then, spare us the lectures.

Your mask just slipped, and the face underneath is pure, unadulterated institutional cowardice.

March 15, 2026 – Virginia Gov Ralph Northam’s soft on crime policies set an Islamic terrorist loose on the Old Dominion University campus

Virginia’s former Republican attorney general, Jason Miyares, posted to social media revealing that a policy from the state’s former Democrat governor Ralph Northam prevented Old Dominion University from learning about the criminal background of the Islamic terrorist Mohamed Bailor Jalloh.

“Per Virginian law, public colleges are barred from questioning prospective applicants on their criminal histories or denying them admission on the basis of criminal history,” the post read. The provision came about via a 2019 woke social justice initiative signed into law by Northam.

If this policy had not been in place, the university would have been able to discover the criminal past of Jalloh, including when he pleaded guilty to providing material support to the Islamic State in 2017. That plea resulted in an 11 year sentence, but was cut to just two and a half years long after Jalloh completed a substance abuse program. (Read more: Townhall, 3/15/2026)  (Archive)

March 14, 2026 – The Deep State protection of the Seth Rich files may be ending

Vox used the above graphic captured from Fox News to use in a published piece titled “The bonkers Seth Rich conspiracy theory, explained” on May 24, 2017. (Credit: Fox News)

(…) On February 3, 2020, at NoisyRoom.net, I framed the Deep State as a de facto criminal enterprise under the RICO Act, committing treason, fraud, obstruction, and other racketeering acts in a continuing pattern (18 U.S.C. §§ 1961–1968).

The DNC “hack” fit the pattern: Assange denied Russian involvement and forensic analysis pointed to an insider leak, yet the FBI never inspected the DNC servers themselves, relying on CrowdStrike’s report. This misdirection fueled the Russia-Trump collusion hoax, justifying surveillance, media smears, and the Mueller probe. Under those circumstances, Rich’s potential role as a whistleblower threatened the whole house of cards.

Over the next few years, I authored a string of investigative reports, drilling down with hard evidence:

  • June 3, 2022: “Who Really Killed Seth Rich?”— Reexamined the murder as the Russia hoax collapsed, highlighting Rich’s access and Sanders loyalty.
  • July 12, 2022: “Use RICO to Get to the Bottom of Seth Rich’s Murder”— Proposed RICO as the tool to connect the hit to a broader conspiracy.
  • September 18, 2023: “Who is Seth Rich? Who Murdered Him? And What’s The Deep State Hiding?”— Linked to Durham Report findings of FBI misconduct.
  • February 2, 2024: “The FBI Again Tries to Block Seth Rich’s Laptop from Public View”— Exposed defiance in FOIA cases like Huddleston v. FBI, with exemptions claimed for “classified” or “personal” data.
  • March 18, 2025: “The FBI Must Investigate Itself And, Once Cleaned, Several Other Political Crimes”— Drew parallels to Epstein, calling for systemic reform.
  • August 2, 2025: “Was the Death of Seth Rich a Hit by the Deep State?”— Incorporated ODNI declassifications (under Tulsi Gabbard), Metro PD leaks from Officer Douglas Berlin, and the bombshell “Prohibited Access” files—a secret FBI repository shielding sensitive records.
  • August 8, 2025: “Seth Rich: Dead Men Tell No Tales”— Framed it as a murder mystery riddled with media disinformation (e.g., Michael Isikoff-style amplification of false narratives), unproven CrowdStrike claims, and urgent calls for probes under Kash Patel and Pam Bondi.

These articles relied on verifiable sources: FOIA denials-turned-admissions, court orders ignored, intelligence lapses (no crime-scene forensics pushed, devices held since 2016, but contents suppressed). Whispers persist, and in an unsolved case, such rumors are almost inevitable. The same holds for the broader possibility of a professional or contracted operative several levels removed from any decision-maker: plausible deniability is the hallmark of these operations.

Now, however, at long last, the Trump FBI is ever so slowly giving up its secrets. Senator Chuck Grassley deserves major credit. Attorney Ty Clevenger used Grassley’s discovery of hidden FBI files to advance his FOIA suits. Matt Taibbi at Racket News just posted an exclusive update on these hidden FBI files. John Solomon of Just the News just dropped an article detailing how prohibited-access files shielded politically sensitive cases, including an intriguing quote from Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon. The Federalist published these bombshell articles, too (here, here, here, and here). Whistleblower tips to Grassley’s office blew the lid off. Grassley demanded that AG Bondi and Director Patel produce records; some have been turned over amid internal resistance, and Patel’s task force is now excavating decades of hidden material.

Grassley said:

If it weren’t for whistleblower disclosures to my office, the very existence of the FBI using “Prohibited Access” files for some investigations would have remained in the dark. I’ve asked Attorney General Bondi and Director Patel to turn over certain Prohibited Access records to Congress. I’ve received some but am still waiting on others. I urge the DOJ and FBI to keep digging—which previous administrations apparently didn’t make any effort to do—so that the facts can come to light. The FBI’s secret stash of records is scandalous.

March 15, 2026 – Weirdo James Comey recalls singing Beyoncé song during 2016 FBI ‘Sandcastles’ briefing (Video)

Former FBI Director James Comey shared a story on Sunday recalling an unusual moment from his time leading the bureau, describing how a reference to a Beyoncé song during a 2016 FBI briefing was met with silence from colleagues in the room.

Comey stated in a video posted Sunday on his Substack:

As FBI director, I would get briefed all the time on serious stuff, including operations or cases that always seemed to have these strange code names that nobody could explain the origin of, at least not to the director. And so the names became a little bit of an obsession of mine.

One morning, I was sitting at the head of a big table in a crowded room to get briefed on a particular piece of work. The briefer started by saying the operation was codenamed “Sandcastles.”

Now, this was 2016, and you may know that Beyoncé’s album Lemonade had come out with a track called “Sandcastles.” So I said, “Oh, like the Beyoncé song.” Blank stares all around the FBI conference room. So I did the natural thing. I think I sang, “We rebuild sand castles that washed away.” Nope, nothing — dead silence. “Never mind,” I said, “continue.” Only when I got home and told my family the story did I get the reaction I was looking for. When I write, I listen to classical or jazz because, in ways I can’t explain, the music unlocks something. It frees me.

Comey led the FBI from 2013 until he was fired in 2017 during President Donald Trump’s first administration. His remarks come months after a federal judge dismissed a 2025 indictment charging him with making false statements and obstruction of justice related to his 2020 Senate testimony, a ruling the Justice Department has indicated it will appeal.

March 17, 2026 – Nick Shirley exposes California fraud

Here is the full 40 minutes of my crew and I exposing California fraud, Minnesota was big but California is even bigger… We uncovered over $170,000,000 in fraud as these fraudsters live in luxury with no consequences. Like it and share it, the fraud must STOP.

We ALL work way too hard and pay too much in taxes for this to be happening. These fraudsters have been able to defraud American taxpayers for years without any pushback from the public and politicians.

It is time to EXPOSE IT ALL and end America’s fraud crisis.

Gavin Newsom wants to be President. Think of it. The man who turned the Golden State into the greatest fraud factory the world has ever seen… the man who let billions and billions and billions of your tax dollars get stolen right out from under him… that man wants to run the country. Everybody sees it. Even the Democrats see it. They just don’t want to talk about it.

So let’s talk about what’s really happening in California because the numbers are so big, so staggering, so unbelievable that people can’t even comprehend them. Medi-Cal… that’s California’s version of Medicaid, their big healthcare program… has more than doubled from $108 billion to a proposed $222 billion. The population didn’t double. The spending doubled. Where did the money go? It went to the fraudsters. It went to the grifters. It went to people driving around in brand new BMWs and $200,000 Maybachs while your grandmother can’t afford her medication in the 4th largest economy in the world. Disgraceful.

A brave young journalist… Nick Shirley, great guy, incredible courage… went into Los Angeles and did what the entire state government of California refused to do. He walked up to the doors. He knocked. He asked questions. And what did he find? He found daycares with 39 children enrolled on paper and five kids actually there. He found daycares in San Diego with 14 children enrolled and zero… zero… present when the state inspectors showed up. Four different visits by state inspectors. Zero children every single time. And California kept sending the checks. Kept sending the money. Billions of dollars just flowing out the door to empty buildings and ghost children.

Think of it.

Nick found a daycare operating out of an apartment… one bedroom… supposedly caring for eight kids. He shows up and finds two small children outside completely unsupervised. No adult anywhere. His producer, a mother, broke down crying on camera because the scene was so horrifying. These are real children being used as pawns in a massive fraud scheme and Gavin Newsom’s California didn’t do a thing to stop it. Not a thing.

But the daycares… and this is the part that really gets you… the daycares are almost small compared to what’s happening with hospice. Los Angeles County has seen a 1,500 percent increase in hospice companies since 2010. That’s not a typo. Fifteen hundred percent. The elderly population went up about 40 percent. The number of hospice agencies went from 109 to over 1,800. Forty-five times more hospice agencies per senior than New York. Fifty-nine times more than Florida. Nobody’s ever seen anything like it.

CBS News… and give them credit, they actually did real journalism for once… went through every single hospice operating in LA County. Seven hundred and forty-two of them… 42 percent… showed multiple red flags for fraud as defined by the state’s own criteria. Nearly 500 hospices crammed into a three-mile radius in the San Fernando Valley. One hundred and thirty-seven along Van Nuys Boulevard alone. Eighty-nine… 89 hospice companies… registered inside one single building in Van Nuys. One building. And 72 of those showed signs of fraud.

Nick Shirley went to that very area. He walked into a place called Miracle Healing Hospice that billed $1.3 million. Knocked on the door. Nobody home. Looked through the window. Completely empty. Not a single piece of furniture. $32,000 per patient billed to the taxpayers and there’s nothing inside. Nothing. He went to Guardian of Angels Hospice… $4.8 million billed. Couldn’t even find them. Went door to door looking for this company that collected nearly five million dollars and it didn’t appear to exist.

And here’s where it gets really interesting… the “I can’t believe this is real” part. Every single one of these empty buildings, these shell companies, these ghost operations… the parking lots were full of the most expensive cars you’ve ever seen. Brand new BMW M8 Competitions. Cybertrucks. $200,000 Maybachs. Mercedes after Mercedes after Mercedes. The fraudsters weren’t even trying to hide it. They were driving around in luxury vehicles paid for with stolen Medicare dollars while hardworking Californians can’t afford their rent.

Nick went to a place that teaches people how to open their own hospice. A consulting firm. In LA. You don’t need to be a doctor. You don’t need to be a nurse. You don’t need to be anything. Just get some stolen Medicare numbers from elderly people… which are worth more than credit card numbers now, everybody in the industry knows it… bill the government, and watch the checks roll in. A medical professional told Nick on camera that hospice fraud became a trend during COVID. People were building hospices and flipping them like real estate. Building them and selling them. Using your tax dollars. Quite honestly one of the most disgraceful things anyone has ever seen in this country.

And Gavin Newsom’s big response? He says he banned new hospice licenses in 2021. Incredible. He banned new licenses while 742 fraudulent operations kept running. That’s like locking the front door after the burglars moved in and set up a furniture store in your living room. His own state auditor told him in 2022… wrote him a letter, very direct, very clear… that California’s weak controls had created the opportunity for large-scale fraud and abuse. Stolen identities of medical personnel. Abnormally high rates of living patients being discharged. The whole system was rotten. And what did Newsom do? He blamed Trump. Always blaming somebody else. Never his fault. His spokesperson actually called Dr. Oz an idiot for pointing out the fraud. That tells you everything you need to know about Gavin Newsom’s priorities.

Meanwhile an adult daycare in LA billed $19.8 million. Nick went there at 1:30 in the afternoon. No adults present. The place looked like it was falling apart. They couldn’t even produce a brochure. Couldn’t even answer the phone. A voicemail box that was full. $19.8 million of your money.

California’s own Attorney General Rob Bonta had to admit it… called hospice fraud an epidemic. An epidemic. And this is Newsom’s guy saying this. The “Califraudia” report estimates total fraud waste and abuse across the state could hit $250 billion. Billions and billions and billions. The state auditor has been flagging Medi-Cal as high risk for mismanagement since 2007. Almost twenty years of warnings and nothing changed. By March 2025, Newsom’s healthcare department needed a $3.4 billion emergency loan. A week later they came back begging for another $2.8 billion. The state is hemorrhaging money and nobody at the top cares because nobody at the top is paying for it. You’re paying for it.

The DOJ has been arresting people. Good. Four California residents just got sentenced for a $16 million hospice fraud and money laundering scheme… sham companies, fake documents, stolen Medicare numbers, shell accounts. The Armenian Organized Crime strike force dismantled five hospices in LA. But these are drops in an ocean of fraud that Newsom watched grow for years and years and years while he was busy running around the country auditioning for President.

This is the man the Democrats want to put in charge of the whole country. The man who couldn’t find 742 fraudulent hospices in his own state. The man whose government kept sending checks to daycares with zero children. The man whose citizens are getting their Medicare numbers stolen so criminals can drive Maybachs. The man whose own auditor begged him to act and he ignored it.

Gavin Newsom didn’t build the Golden State. He built the fraud state. And now he wants your vote. Go look at what he did to California. Go look at those empty buildings billing millions. Go look at those children left unsupervised in apartment daycares. Go look at those parking lots full of luxury cars outside fake hospices.

And then ask yourself… do we really want this for America?

An unassuming office building on a side street in Los Angeles is being called a “ground zero” example of suspected, widespread hospice care fraud underway in California.

The Merabi Professional Medical Plaza, a 32,000-square-foot, stucco and glass building in the Van Nuys neighborhood of the LA’s San Fernando Valley is reportedly the home to 89 licensed hospice companies.

March 17, 2026 – Honestreporting.AI Labs track the Joe Kent/Tucker Carlson narrative in real time – findings should end debate

Joe Kent goes on Tucker Carlson. Within minutes — not hours, minutes — the same clip, same caption, same outrage floods hundreds of accounts simultaneously. http://HonestReporting.AI Labs tracked every amplification event in real time, and the data is damning.

The trigger quote — 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘐𝘴𝘳𝘢𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘴 𝘥𝘳𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯 — was clipped and posted across hundreds of accounts almost simultaneously. Not after it trended. During the broadcast. Real breaking news takes time to spread organically. This had a running start.

Who amplified it? Look at the coalition:

Russian state TV (RT).
Iranian state media through HispanTV.
Hamas-aligned Quds News Network.
Turkish state broadcaster TRT.
Sputnik Brasil.

And simultaneously — Jackson Hinkle, Candace Owens, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Max Blumenthal.
Russia, Iran, Hamas, and MAGA dissidents.

All posting the same message. At the same time.

When does that happen naturally? It doesn’t.

The charts tell the story precisely. Within 2 to 4 hours of the Tucker broadcast, tracked amplification events spiked to 30 — dominated by MAGA dissident amplifiers and Pro-Palestinian/Islamist networks firing in parallel.

The second chart shows how far the narrative traveled from what Kent actually said. By the time the amplification cycle was complete, the message had escalated from Kent’s original claim all the way to “Israel controls America” — an approximately 85-90% departure from source material. That is not interpretation. That is narrative laundering.

The rollout wasn’t spontaneous. Kent resigned. Tucker booked him within hours. Real whistleblowers are chaotic. They call journalists from parking lots. They don’t have a media tour lined up before the ink dries on their resignation letter.

And here’s what got buried in all of it: from 2020 to 2024, Joe Kent publicly and repeatedly called for destroying Iran’s nuclear AND ballistic capabilities. That record was almost completely absent from the amplified conversation. Narrative laundering doesn’t only determine what to amplify. It determines what to erase.

The FBI was already investigating Kent. He resigned to control the narrative. The speed, the uniformity, and the foreign state amplification are not organic. This was a coordinated information operation — and the people pushing it included both foreign adversaries and Americans who should know better.

March 17, 2026 – National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent resigns, presumably over Iran war; FBI investigating him for possibly leaking classified info

JUST IN: President Trump responds to National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent RESIGNING over the war in Iran

“I always thought he was a nice guy, but I thought he was very weak on security. I didn’t know him well. But he seemed like a pretty nice guy. But when I read his statement, I realized it’s a good thing he’s out because he said Iran was not a threat.”

Kent said in his resignation letter: “As a veteran who deployed to combat 11 times and as a Gold Star husband who lost my beloved wife Shannon in a war manufactured by Israel, I cannot support sending the next generation off to fight and die in a war that serves no benefit to the American people nor justifies the cost of American lives.”

 

March 18, 2026

FBI just announced Investigation into Joe Kent for allegedly leaking classified information. This comes after Joe Kent rushed onto Tucker Carlson podcast to double down on his public challenge to President Trump regarding Iran.

Joe Kent appears on Tucker’s show on 3/18/2026 to discuss why we went to war with Iran.

Kent resigned Tuesday from his role as the nation’s top counterterrorism official, citing opposition to the U.S. war against Iran.

In a public statement, Kent said he “cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war,” arguing that Iran posed no imminent threat and that the conflict marked a break from the administration’s prior approach to avoiding prolonged wars in the Middle East.

A senior administration official previously told Fox News Digital that Kent was a “known leaker” who had been cut out of intelligence briefings months before his resignation.

It is unclear whether the FBI investigation is related to those concerns or to a separate matter. (Fox News, 3/18/2026)

So Joe Kent was reportedly under FBI investigation for leaking classified information before resigning — and he immediately sat down for an interview with Tucker Carlson, who said days ago that he’s under investigation for his conversations with Iranian officials.

Who knows whether either claim is true?

What information was Kent accused of leaking — and to whom?

What exactly did Tucker say to Iranian officials?

Or are both men being targeted for opposing the war?

Or is none of this accurate, and neither is under investigation at all?

The reality is that nobody on the internet knows the full truth — but you’re about to see plenty of people speak with absolute certainty as if they do.

March 17, 2026 – US intel hid Chinese 2020 election meddling from Trump because they opposed his policies

Dr. Barry A. Zulauf (Credit: World Geostrategic Insights )

Dr. Barry A. Zulauf, a member of the Senior National Intelligence Service reported that others in the intelligence community said “I don’t want my intelligence going to the White House where it will be used by that vulgarian in the Oval Office to support policies against China with which I personally disagree.”

Analysts inside the U.S. intelligence community sought to conceal evidence of Chinese influence efforts from President Donald Trump during the 2020 election, with analysts saying they didn’t want their intel used by “that vulgarian in the Oval Office” to pursue policies toward China they personally disagreed with.

The revelation is found within a January 2021 report written by — and never before reported upon comments by — analytic ombudsman Barry Zulauf, who conducted a review of the spy community’s handling of Russian versus Chinese meddling efforts during the 2020 election. Among his conclusions was that intelligence analysts downplayed China’s actions because they had disdain for the “vulgarian” Trump and did not want to support the policies and priorities of the Trump administration toward China with which they “personally disagree.”

Just the News reported this week that the U.S. intelligence community has known since early 2020 that Beijing also gained access to American voter registration data and used that information to conduct opinion analysis related to the presidential election between Trump and then-former Vice President Joe Biden.

Chinese government election influence efforts in the 2020 election

This is not the only piece of evidence pointing to Chinese government election influence efforts in the 2020 election. Although much about China’s activities in 2020 remains classified, Just the News conducted a thorough review of publicly-available intelligence assessments, federal indictments, foreign government warnings, and cybersecurity firm analyses.

There is credible evidence that Chinese government-linked cyber hackers and Chinese social media troll farms took aim at the U.S. presidential election in 2020 and sought to undercut Trump during his run against now-former President Biden. There are also indicators that Chinese intelligence and law enforcement agencies — China’s Ministry of State Security (MSS) and its Ministry of Public Security (MPS) — also played a role in 2020.

Zulauf — a longtime intelligence officer — wrote in his January 2021 report: “Given analytic differences in the way Russia and China analysts examined their targets, China analysts appeared hesitant to assess Chinese actions as undue influence or interference. These analysts appeared reluctant to have their analysis on China brought forward because they tended to disagree with the Administration’s policies, saying in effect, I don’t want our intelligence used to support those policies.”

U.S. intel analysts downplayed China assessments to avoid helping Trump

Zulauf discussed his report on a podcast later that year, where he quoted an analyst working on Chinese interference efforts as having essentially said that “I don’t want my analysis going to the White House where that vulgarian … in the White House will use it to pursue policies toward China with which I personally disagree.”

An article in the Journal of Intelligence Conflict and Warfare recounted a 2023 speech by Zulauf, who said that the intelligence analyst was quoted as saying that “I don’t want my intelligence going to the White House where it will be used by that vulgarian in the Oval Office to support policies against China with which I personally disagree.”

“Dr. Zulauf went on to point out the various errors in this way of thinking — intelligence belongs to the community, not a single analyst, and further, while analysts are entitled to like or dislike particular leaders, they are not entitled to allow that to alter the intelligence products that they put forward,” the journal article said.

The review by Zulauf also found that allegations of Russian meddling and Chinese meddling were being measured based on differing standards, meaning Russia may have taken actions that were determined to be influence or interference efforts while, if and when China took the same or similar actions, those Chinese actions likely would not have been determined to be influence or interference efforts.

“Due to varying collection and insight into hostile state actors’ leadership intentions and domestic election influence campaigns, the definitional use of the terms ‘influence’ and ‘interference’ and associated confidence levels are applied differently by the China and Russia analytic communities,” Zulauf wrote in his report.

The ombudsman found that “the terms were applied inconsistently across the analytic community” and that “failing to explain properly these definitions is inconsistent with Tradecraft Standards.”

“ODNI officials engaging with policymakers said that these customers did notice the result, particularly differences in the volume, frequency, and confidence levels of the intelligence coming from the China and Russia analytic communities on activities that, from their perspective, were very similar in their potential effects,” Zulauf added.

The analytic ombudsman noted that multiple national intelligence officers wrote an “Alternative Analysis Memo” in October 2020 “which expressed alternative views on potential Chinese election influence activities.” Zulauf said that “these alternative views met with considerable organizational counter pressure” but that then-DNI and now-Director of the Central Intelligence Agency John Ratcliffe agreed with the dissenting alternative views which argued that China had in fact attempted to influence the 2020 election to undercut Trump’s candidacy.

March 17, 2026 – James O’Keefe exposes California elections fraud – Cash for Ballots

CALIFORNIA ELECTIONS FRAUD CASH FOR BALLOTS PART I: Homeless Bribed with Cash & Drugs In Exchange For Registering To Vote & Signing Election Petitions Caught On Tape Undercover On Skid Row In California.

“You can just put Pinocchio Lane.”

California NGOs Encourage Fake Addresses To Homeless People To Sign Petitions & Register Voters, A State & Federal Felony. Footage Shows 28 Instances Of Cash Changing Hands For Ballot Signatures & Voter Registration Forms. Many of the petitioners had no understanding of the petitions’ purpose they were advertising. Circulators also instructed individuals to use fake addresses. “Oh, you can just fake an address.”

Weingart Center, which received hundreds of millions in public funding, is on tape directing people to where the fraudulent petitioners are located, and directing homeless individuals to petitioners & coaching plausible deniability. “See they say ignorance is no excuse for the law. But a lot of times, I have to say ‘I didn’t know, I had no idea.’”

We encountered 28 instances of petitioners offering cash, cigarettes, and marijuana for signatures on petitions.

Weingart employees advised: “See they say ignorance is no excuse for the law. But a lot of times, I have to say ‘I didn’t know, I had no idea.’” All happening outside taxpayer-funded housing organizations. Weingart CEO earned $432,000 before resigning from the Los Angeles County Affordable Housing Solutions Agency.

James O’Keefe and the OMG Team went undercover on Skid Row, posing as homeless individuals. On hidden cameras, petitioners admitted they are paid $7–$10 per signature, sometimes earning $1,000 or more per day, collecting signatures from individuals with minimal knowledge of what they were signing.

“$7 a signature, $5 a signature, $10 a signature.”

“We gon’ give you $2.”

Populus Inc., a political consulting firm, was circulating petitions funded by @Uber, @Delta, @United, and the American Hotel & Lodging Association (@AHLA). On camera, one petitioner said, “We have one that taxes billionaires 5%. One-time tax. 5% and that’s gonna go towards healthcare.” Other petitions sought to overturn LA’s $30 minimum wage for hotel and airline workers.

Paying per signature and encouraging fake addresses violates federal and state election law and is proof of fraud happening in California.

Weingart employees were caught directing the homeless to the location of the petitioners and coaching them on plausible deniability. Intake coordinator Jason Warren told an undercover journalist exactly where and when to find them:

“Most time they be right across the street, under that tree… Monday through Friday.”

In 2016, nine individuals were arrested on Skid Row for exchanging cash and cigarettes for signatures; in 2019 they were charged on 14 counts under the exact same California Elections Code section.

Yet when confronted, nearby LAPD officers dismissed the activity as “a civil lawsuit.”

“Paying per signature violates state election law and is evidence of election fraud in California,” the investigation concludes. On Skid Row, we captured conduct on tape that violates Federal Law 52 U.S. Code §10307 and state law California Election Code §18603.

Part II coming soon.

March 18, 2026 – Chris Wray and Chris Krebs lied to the American public for 6 years — They knew Iranians breached US election system in 2020

FBI Director Chris Wray and former CISA Director Chris Krebs hid the extent of the enormous Iranian election security breach from the American public until last month, four years after the 2020 election. (Credit: The Gateway Pundit)

In 2025, unsealed court documents completely redefined what we were told to believe about the 2020 US presidential election.

The election was billed by the Democrat Party, Joe Biden, the mainstream media, and former CISA Chief Chris Krebs as the ‘most secure election’ in US history.

Chris Krebs, the former CISA Director, testified before Congress on December 16, 2020, after he was fired by Donald Trump.

Recently, unsealed court documents first reported by The Gateway Pundit in October 2024, completely redefined what we were told to believe about the 2020 US presidential election.

The election was billed by the Democrat Party, Joe Biden, the mainstream media, and former CISA Chief Chris Krebs as the most secure election in US history.

Chris Krebs, the former CISA Director fired by Donald Trump, testified before Congress on December 16, 2020, after he was fired.

Krebs famously announced that day, “The 2020 election was the most secure in US history.”

WATCH:

But was 2020 really the most secure election in US history?

We now know definitively that Chris Krebs was lying when he made this announcement during congressional testimony in December 2020.

Today, nearly six years after the 2020 election, we have proof of a successful breach by one of America’s major enemies on our election infrastructure prior to Election Day and during early voting.

CISA officials released a report on October 30, 2020, JUST DAYS BEFORE the 2020 presidential election.

The report was never made public, and it omitted critical facts about a successful breach of a state’s election database days before the 2020 election.

Here is the CISA report, which was hidden for several years and discovered after investigative reporter Yehuda Miller obtained the information through a FOIA request earlier this year.

According to the CISA report from October 22, 2020:

SUBJECT: FBI Liaison Alert System (FLASH) – Indicators of Compromise Pertaining to Iranian Interference in the 2020 Presidential Election – TLP: WHITE

On 22 October 2020, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) published a joint Cybersecurity Advisory (Alert AA20-296B) warning that Iranian advanced persistent threat (APT) actors are likely intent on influencing and interfering with the US elections to sow discord among voters and undermine public confidence in the US electoral process.

APT actors are creating fictitious media sites and spoofing legitimate media sites to spread anti-American propaganda and misinformation about voter suppression.

The attached FLASH contains a list of indicators of compromise (IOCs) and additional threat information pertaining to a threat group, assessed to be located in Iran, conducting operations aimed at influencing and interfering in the 2020 US Presidential Election.

The October 22 alert referenced above can be found at the following URL: https://uscert.cisa.gov/ncas/alerts/aa20-296b

Here is the report released on October 30, 2020, days before the US presidential election.

Thanks to Yehuda Miller for the FOIAed document.

We now know that this CISA report was completely dishonest and omitted critical facts.

We also know that Krebs and CISA lied about the security of the 2020 election in their Cyber Risk Summary, which was released after the election in 2021.

We know this for a fact because Krebs, Chris Wray, and CISA COMPLETELY OMITTED the fact that the Iranian regime successfully breached one state’s voter roll database and used the names, Social Security, and Driver’s License numbers to fill out UOCAVA or overseas ballot registrations!

This tiny fact was omitted from Kreb’s report, and Chris Wray and DOJ Chief Bill Barr ignored it! (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 3/18/2026)  (Archive)

March 18, 2026 – Biden’s CIA Assessment: “Traditional motherhood” & “homemaking” are white “Racially and Ethnically Motivated Violent Extremism” (REMVE)

March 19, 2026 – FBI misled FISA court to spy on second Trump campaign adviser

Donald Trump and Walid Phares (Credit: public domain)

Carter Page wasn’t the only adviser from Trump’s first campaign wiretapped by the FBI. Walid Phares was electronically monitored for a 12-month period between 2017 and 2018, according to the Washington-based FBI agent who was assigned to investigate him as part of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia collusion probe.

As in Page’s case, the bureau withheld evidence exonerating Phares from the court to secure surveillance authorization, according to newly declassified FBI documents.

“I had no idea any of this was happening,” Phares told RealClearInvestigations in an exclusive interview Wednesday night. “This is shocking because they told my lawyer that I was only a ‘witness’ and that they just needed some information.”

“But these were huge abuses that I can see now,” he added. Phares said he intends to sue the FBI and Justice Department for damages.

The 68-year-old Lebanese-American scholar said case agents and prosecutors grilled him for months, questioned his employer, and even went after his bank records. As a result, he said he lost his job at a university, his livelihood, and even his bank accounts and credit card after Wells Fargo cancelled them.

“It was like a disaster for me financially and physically,” he said. “I also lost my Fox News contract” as an expert on terrorism and the Middle East, which he had held since 2007.

Phares was not hired by the Trump administration, even though he had been expected to land a high-level foreign policy position. “They scared the agencies from me so I would have problems with (obtaining) a security clearance,” he said.

‘No Corroborating Facts’

Investigators could find “nothing” criminal on Phares during their probe, according to the lead case agent, and in fact, they concluded he was “honest.” Yet Mueller’s team continued to secretly spy on Phares – without providing the powerful federal spy court any of the exculpatory evidence that could clear Phares as required by law.

The agent told investigators in a separate 2020 internal FBI review that “there were no corroborating facts that tied Crosswind [the codename for Phares’ case] to certain facts that we thought were originally true,” according to a transcript of his testimony, released after more than five years of concealment.

He added that “nothing” collected from Phares’ communications under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrants, including phone messages and emails, “aided the investigation other than to prove the target was being honest with investigators,” who had interviewed him repeatedly.

Nonetheless, the FBI continued monitoring Phares as part of a Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) investigation. He was never charged with any violations of the act. (Read more: RealClearInvestigations, 3/19/2026)  (Archive)

March 19, 2026 – Former FBI Director James Comey receives grand jury subpoena in the Justice Department’s Russiagate investigation

Former FBI Director James Comey has been subpoenaed in the Justice Department’s Russiagate investigation.

In July, it was reported that former FBI Director James Comey and John Brennan were under FBI investigation over their involvement in Russiagate.

CIA Director John Ratcliffe referred Brennan and Comey for prosecution last summer.

US Attorney in the Southern District of Florida Jason Reding Quiñones is in charge of the investigation.

According to Axios and Fox News, Comey was issued a grand jury subpoena last week.

March 20, 2026 – Bagman and enabler of ‘Spygate’ and ‘Russiagate’ receives subpoena from Florida ‘conspiracy’ investigative grand jury

In the next few days, much more about the overall investigative review underway in Florida will begin to surface.  The review has been led by USAO Jason A. Reding Quiñones, a federal prosecutor for the Southern District of Florida.

As with all investigations containing multiple players and actors, the first investigative information is extracted from testimony by those furthest away from the principals, yet closest to the granular details of the events being reviewed.  The questioning then goes upstream, using information collected to assembly more specific questions as the principal players are approached.

The widest concentric circles are questioned first. Then, using the responses and investigative information from that circle, the questioning and inquiry goes to the next inner circle of participants. The information is assembled, and more pointed questions are then targeted to the next inner circle; the process continues until the core is questioned.

Beginning with the end in mind, the biggest challenge is knowing what the correct questions are to ask of those who were closest to the corrupt activity (the outer circle). Background research is critical – CTH of value. From those pointed questions you get answers. Then, next level of more specific questions get focus, and so on, and so on.

FLORIDA – Former FBI Director James Comey has been subpoenaed in connection with a wide-ranging investigation being run by a Trump-appointed federal prosecutor in Florida, two sources familiar with the matter told NBC News on Thursday.

The probe, which focuses on an earlier investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and other prosecutions related to President Donald Trump, is being led by Jason A. Reding Quiñones, the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Florida. The sprawling probe has been dubbed a “grand conspiracy” investigation by Trump allies.

An attorney for Comey did not have an immediate comment, while Quiñones’ office did not immediately respond to a request for comment. (read more)

Please remember, there are two distinct and different aspects to the overall conspiracy and timeline.

There was surveillance of the 2016 Republican candidates by contractors working on behalf of the FBI who was institutionally collaborating with the Clinton campaign; that is known as “Spygate.”   There was then an FBI operation to target and eliminate the threat represented by the 2016 GOP primary winner, Donald Trump; that is known as “Russiagate.”

‘Spygate’ and ‘Russiagate’ are two distinctly different corrupt pathways that eventually merged due to common interests.

The Mueller investigation, an extension of Crossfire Hurricane (Russiagate) was used by Obama-era politicians and internal government officials as a mechanism to block President Trump from executing a divergent foreign policy.  The primary policy of focus was to protect the Iran deal.

Based on mounting evidence, a pattern in other international activities and U.S. participants, the Obama-Clinton-Kerry Iranian deal likely included a mechanism for return payments to U.S. officials following the release of billions in frozen Iranian asset funds and the loosening of sanctions – (ie. pallets of cash).  Qatar was the mediator/broker.

However, it is speculated, perhaps being currently evidenced, that return payments to the Obama team contained a timing mechanism and the quid-pro-quo payments were stopped after President Trump withdrew from the Iran deal and re-instituted sanctions.

Thus, a much larger background context exists for why the totality of the U.S. government and Intelligence Community opposed President Donald Trump.   Is it all about the money? Time will tell.  Current events may not be coincidental.

♦ September 2015 – Billionaire Paul Singer contracts with Glenn Simpson and Fusion GPS for opposition research on candidate Donald Trump during 2016 GOP presidential primary.  Simpson prior work during time at Wall Street journal serves as reference.

♦ November 2015 – Simpson hires Nellie Ohr to assist on Trump project.  Ohr was CIA open-source analyst.  Revelations by NSA compliance officer in April 2016 point to November 2015 as origin of multiple unauthorized searches of NSA database.

Following day Rosenstein talks to Mueller (3X) and coordinates meeting.  Robert Mueller appointed Special Counsel; Mueller chief deputy Andrew Weissmann assumes organization of investigation.

♦ June 2017 – Weissmann assembles Crossfire Hurricane team into Special Counsel.  WFO FBI Agent Brian Dugan begins to suspect SSCI leak of FISA application based on media reporting.  Agent Dugan requests and receives first warrant for cell phone records of SSCI Security Director Wolfe and NYT journalist Ali Watkins.  June 29th Andrew Weissmann requests renewal of Carter Page FISA warrant to continue surveillance of administration.  Application renewed.

♦ July 2017 – While conducting investigation of internal FBI conduct during Clinton email investigation, Office of Inspector General Michael Horowitz discovers inappropriate activity within FBI investigative team.  Horowitz informs DAG Rosenstein and SC Robert Mueller about Lisa Page and Peter Strzok compromise.  Weissmann removes Page and Strzok to avoid scrutiny by OIG of special counsel team.  President Trump White House Counsel Don McGahn discovers all 2016/2017 transition team emails, phone records, electronic communications and devices have been given to Andrew Weissmann by General Services Administration as requested by the FISA authority carried by special counsel.

♦ April 2018 – Leaks of the FISA application against Carter Page now under scrutiny.  A criminal referral from OIG toward FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe for lying to INSD investigators about his media leaks.

♦ June 2018 – The criminal indictment of SSCI Security Director James Wolfe unsealed and made public.

♦ July 2018 – The DOJ informs the FISC that despite issues surfacing about the predicate of the FISA warrant they authorized against Carter Page for being an agent of a foreign power, everything was ok.  A week later, the DOJ then releases to the public the first FISA Title-1 search warrant ever seen, …

…the publicly released version of the FISA application is the exact copy of FISA that was contained in the FBI evidence file against James Wolfe.  The same exact document hand carried from the FISC to the SSCI on March 17, 2017, was the copy released by the DOJ in July 2018 – not the DOJ-NSD copy.  How did that happen?

♦ December 2018 – Despite the DOJ refusing to indict James Wolfe for leaking the Top-Secret Compartmented Intelligence Carter Page FISA application, and after the guilty plea was entered for lying to investigators, and while the Judge was considering Wolfe’s sentencing, in December of 2018, after the midterm election and under penalty of perjury, the USAO in Washington DC swears to the Judge in the case that James Wolfe leaked the FISA application.

Cover up much?

March 21, 2026 – Robert Mueller is dead

The Clinton exoneration FBI Team became the Trump investigation FBI Team (Crossfire Hurricane) – which then became the Robert Mueller FBI Team (exact same people, plus some additions) – which then became the J6 Investigation FBI Team (exact same people, plus some additions) – which then became the Jack Smith FBI Team (same exact people).  Not only was it one long continuum, but it was also the EXACT SAME PEOPLE.

Before there was the obvious cognitive decline of Joe Biden, there was the obvious cognitive incapacity of Robert Mueller.  However, both acuity compromises were ignored because the agenda the figureheads represented was more important than their obvious compromise.  We talked about it throughout the special counsel timeframe that held his name.

Robert Mueller was a figurehead with no structural input or control over the Trump-Russia special counsel probe.  Factually, Andrew Weissmann was in control over the special counsel investigation, albeit with daily support from the entire Lawfare network.  President Trump’s notice about Robert Mueller’s death is understandable:

I’ve always said to pay attention to the people in Washington DC, specifically the republicans, who claimed Robert Mueller was an honorable figure.  As soon as you hear that sentiment, you know that is a corrupt conniving bastard speaking.

Everyone in Washington DC knew what the role of Robert Mueller was during the first-term administration of Donald Trump.  No one in Washington DC did not know.  Anyone who says the Mueller motive was to investigate Trump-Russia is a deceptive liar.  They all knew what the goal of Mueller was.

The 2017 Mueller Timeline:

♦Sunday May 14th – James Comey transmitted copies of Memos 2, 4, and 6, and a partially redacted copy of Memo 7 to Patrick Fitzgerald, who was one of Comey’s personal attorneys.  Fitzgerald received the email and PDF attachment from Comey at 2:27 p.m. on May 14, 2017, per the IG report.

♦Monday May 15th, McCabe states he and Rosenstein conferred again about the Special Counsel approach. McCabe: “I brought the matter up with him again after the weekend.”

On this same day was when James Rybicki called SSA Whistleblower to notify him of Comey’s memos. The memos were “stored” in a “reception area” and in locked drawers in James Rybicki’s office.

♦Tuesday May 16th – Per the IG report: “On the morning of May 16, Comey took digital photographs of both pages of Memo 4 with his personal cell phone. Comey then sent both photographs, via text message, to his special government employee, Daniel Richman.  Richman’a job was to use the memo to leak to media.

Back in Main Justice at 12:30pm Rod Rosenstein, Andrew McCabe, Jim Crowell and Tashina Guahar are all part of this meeting.  I should note that alternate documentary evidence, gathered over the years, supports the content of this McCabe memo.  Including texts between Lisa Page and Peter Strzok:

[Sidebar: pay attention to the redactions; they were placed by DOJ officials in an effort to protect Rod Rosenstein for his duplicity in: (A) running the Mueller sting operation at the white house on the same day; (B) the appointment of Robert Mueller as special counsel, which was pre-determined before the Oval Office meeting.]

While McCabe was writing this afternoon memo, still May 16th, Rod Rosenstein took Robert Mueller to the ¹White House for a meeting in the oval office with President Trump and VP Mike Pence.

After six prior days of phone calls, emails and in person meetings, this visit to the White House was clearly Rod Rosenstein introducing Robert Mueller to the target of the investigation.  Rosenstein already knew he was going to appoint Mueller; and Mueller, along with the small group in the FBI, already knew Mueller was going to be appointed.

Later that night (May 16th), following the Mueller visit, there was a debriefing session back at Main Justice.  This evening meeting appears to be Lisa Page, Rod Rosenstein and Andrew McCabe; along with Tashina Guahar again taking notes.

♦ Wednesday May 17th, 2017:  Rod Rosenstein and Andrew McCabe go to brief the congressional “Gang-of-Eight”: Paul Ryan, Nancy Pelosi, Devin Nunes, Adam Schiff, Mitch McConnell, Chuck Schumer, Richard Burr and Mark Warner.

… […] “On the afternoon of May 17, Rosenstein and I sat at the end of a long conference table in a secure room in the basement of the Capitol. We were there to brief the so-called Gang of Eight—the majority and minority leaders of the House and Senate and the chairs and ranking members of the House and Senate Intelligence Committees. Rosenstein had, I knew, made a decision to appoint a special counsel in the Russia case.”

[…] “After reminding the committee of how the investigation began, I told them of additional steps we had taken. Then Rod took over and announced that he had appointed a special counsel to pursue the Russia investigation, and that the special counsel was Robert Mueller.” (link)

Immediately following this May 17, 2017, Go8 briefing, Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein notified the public of the special counsel appointment.

According to President Trump’s Attorney John Dowd, the White House was stunned by the decision. [Link] Coincidentally, AG Jeff Sessions was in the oval office for unrelated business when White House counsel Don McGahn came in and informed the group.

Jeff Sessions immediately offered his resignation, and Sessions’ chief-of-staff Jody Hunt went back to the Main Justice office to ask Rosenstein what the hell was going on.

RUSSIAGATE – THEY HAD NOTHING – This investigative ‘small group’ were the people inside Main Justice (DOJ) and FBI headquarters who redacted the Lisa Page and Peter Strzok text messages; removed messages and communication antithetical to their goals; kept key documents and information away from congress; stalled any effort to expose the unlawful aspects of “SpyGate’ and the fraudulent foundation behind the Carter Page FISA application; and undermined any adverse discoveries in the leak investigations (ex. James Wolfe).

The DOJ/FBI investigative small group didn’t change when Mueller arrived, they just reorganized the focus of their effort based on lawfare leadership from Andrew Weissmann and new objectives.  Those same people who created the Trump-Russia collusion/conspiracy case of 2016, evolved into creating the Trump obstructing justice case of 2017, 2018 and 2019.

Everything Robert Mueller and Rod Rosenstein were doing in late 2017 and throughout 2018 was intended to drag-out the Russia conspiracy narrative as long as possible. There was really no Trump-Russia investigation taking place.

It was always the “obstruction” investigation that could lead to the desired result by Mueller’s team of taking down President Trump through evidence that would help Pelosi and Nadler achieve impeachment.  The “obstruction case” was the entirety of the case they were trying to make from May 2017 through to March 2019.

SPYGATE – Just as the New York Times reported, in its final days in office, the Obama Administration expanded the power of the National Security Agency (NSA) to share globally intercepted personal communication with the government’s 16 other intelligence agencies before applying any privacy protections.

The new rules were issued under section 2.3 of Executive Order #12333 after approval by two Obama Administration officials: Attorney General Loretta Lynch and Director of National Intelligence Director, James Clapper.

The new rules, which were issued in an unclassified document titled: “Procedures for the Availability or Dissemination of Raw Signals Intelligence Information by the National Security Agency (NSA),” significantly relaxed longstanding limits on what the NSA may do with the information gathered by its most powerful surveillance operations.

These operations remain as largely unregulated by American wiretapping laws. Surveillances include collecting satellite transmissions, phone calls, and emails that cross network switches abroad, and messages between people abroad that cross domestic network switches.

The changes initiated by the Obama Administration in its waning days empowered far more government agents and officials to search through raw intelligence data. As a direct consequence of the change in policy, that the prospect of intel leaks grew exponentially.

Attorney General Loretta Lynch signed the new rules permitting the NSA to disseminate raw signals intelligence information on January 3, 2017 after Director of National Intelligence James Clapper signed them on December 15, 2016.

The targeting of Donald Trump required surveillance and spying.

The surveillance of Donald Trump never stopped.

The aspect that changed was the team extracting the information.  Hence, (FBI) Raw NSA extraction => (FBI) Crossfire Hurricane => (FBI) Robert Mueller => (FBI) Impeachment => (FBI) Mar-a-Lago Raid => (FBI) Jack Smith.

My Thoughts…. Robert Mueller spent the last 8 years of his life slowly sliding into a very dark place.  He lost his ability to think, he lost his ability to communicate, he lost his ability to take care of himself, he lost his ability to walk, he lost all joy and happiness, he lost his ability to live.  His family was also dragged into a very dark and depressing place while they awaited his end-of-life process.  It wasn’t a fast death. That sounds like hell.

[FOOTNOTE: I have always wondered why no journalist has ever asked President Trump about the meeting with Robert Mueller, organized by Rod Rosenstein on the day before the special counsel was appointed.  How did Trump feel about Rosenstein when he realized the meeting with Mueller was a ¹set up? (or did he realize it?).]

March 22, 2026 – Loyola University Student is shot and killed by illegal alien from Venezuela

Another innocent young American woman has been murdered by one of Joe Biden’s illegal aliens.

Very early Thursday morning, 18-year-old Loyola University student Sheridan Gorman was shot and killed near campus in Chicago.

A masked gunman approached a group of students walking in Rogers Park and opened fire.

Gorman was shot in the head and died at the scene.

On Sunday it was confirmed that the masked gunman who killed Gorman is a 25-year-old illegal alien from Venezuela who entered the US under the Biden Regime.

Police took Jose Medina-Medina into custody.

Per Fox News reporter Bill Melugin: DHS confirms that the suspect in custody for murdering Loyola University student Sheridan Gorman in Chicago is a Venezuelan illegal alien who was caught & released at the border by the Biden administration in May 2023. DHS says he was also released from local custody after a shoplifting arrest in the sanctuary city of Chicago on June 19, 2023.

The Department of Homeland Security blasted the Biden Regime.

“Sheridan Gorman had her whole life ahead of her before this cold-blooded killer decided to end her life. She was failed by open border policies and sanctuary politicians who RELEASED this illegal alien TWICE before he went on to commit this heinous murder,” said Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis.

“We are calling on Governor Pritzker and Chicago’s sanctuary politicians to commit to not releasing this criminal illegal alien from jail back into American neighborhoods,” the DHS said. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 3/22/2026)  (Archive)

March 23, 2026 – Arizona: Former Maricopa County Recorder under investigation for obstruction

Arizona lawmakers revealed during a committee hearing that Maricopa County’s former recorder, Stephen Richer, is being investigated for obstruction.

The investigation into Richer was disclosed during last week’s House Federalism, Military Affairs, & Elections Committee meeting. The committee discussed an investigation by the office of State Rep. John Gillette (R-LD30), chair of the committee, into Arizona’s voter registrations. The findings of that investigation were packaged as part of a criminal referral to the Department of Homeland Security, Department of Justice, and Office of the Director of National Intelligence.

As part of his layout of the criminal referral packet, Gillette touched on an action by Richer in which the former recorder, while president of the Arizona Association of County Recorders (AACR) in 2023, advised other county recorders to not comply with a records request from Arizona lawmakers concerning the 2022 election.

“Stephen Richer telling recorders not to comply with the legislative public records request. That is not a glitch. That’s on purpose,” said Gillette.

State Rep. Rachel Keshel (R-LD17), vice chair of the committee, asked Gillette whether Richer reaching out to all of the county recorders qualified as obstruction. Keshel characterized Richer’s recent public engagements as a “CYA campaign.”

“Is there something there that he broke the law by telling other recorders to basically obstruct on that point? Is anything being looked into on that front?” asked Keshel.

Gillette disclosed that he discussed Richer’s actions with former DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and “her assistant,” and that Richer was being investigated for that communication with other recorders. (Read more: AZFreeNews, 3/22/2026)  (Archive)

March 22, 2026 – The taxpayer funded Nat’l Democratic Institute for Int’l Affairs (NDI) helps foreign countries set up elections; demands voter ID and proof of citizenship be required

Hello Representative Levin,

I’d like to introduce you to an organization called the National Democratic Institute for International Affairs.

NDI is one of the four core institutes of the National Endowment for Democracy, established by Congress in 1983. It is the Democratic Party’s official international arm. Its board members include Stacey Abrams, Donna Brazile, and Michael McFaul. Its previous chair was Madeleine Albright, who served until her death in 2022. Also on the board: Eric Kessler, founder of Arabella Advisors, the largest dark money network in Democratic politics.

NDI reported $181.5 million in revenue in fiscal year 2023, nearly all in government grants.

NDI’s mission, for four decades, has been to tell countries around the world how to run democratic elections. And what NDI consistently tells them, across dozens of countries, is that voter identification is a fundamental pillar of election integrity, and that proving citizenship is a basic prerequisite for participation.

Here is what NDI has demanded of other countries:

NDI’s foundational guide, Building Confidence in the Voter Registration Process (2001), describes voter ID systems as standard democratic infrastructure. It states that voter registries should contain “voters’ photographs and even their fingerprints” and that registered voters should be issued “a voter or other ID card that serves as proof of their right to vote.” NDI explains that “issuing ID cards, either national or voting, requires a second point of contact between election officials and voters, which introduces an additional safeguard into the system.” (pp. 10–11, 15)

NDI’s 2015 study of voter registration across the Middle East and North Africa goes further, laying out that voters must “prove their identity, essentially demonstrating that they are who they say they are” and must “affirm their citizenship and age.” (p. 11)

That same 2001 guide identifies married name changes as a routine voter roll maintenance challenge: “Election officials must update information about people who have moved or who have married and changed their surname.” NDI also notes that voter lists “may omit information about changes of address or name for those eligible people who have recently moved or married.” NDI’s recommendation is not to eliminate voter ID. It is to maintain clean, continuously updated voter rolls that accommodate name changes within the system.

In its 2009 Bangladesh report, NDI praised the country’s new photo-voter list and national ID card system, noting that the ID cards gave “a sense of empowerment and belonging to the disadvantaged and marginalized people of the country, particularly women.”

Read that again. NDI itself called voter identification empowering for WOMEN!

In every case, NDI’s position was identical: marriage-related name changes are a solvable administrative problem. The solution is better record-keeping and updated systems. Not fewer safeguards. Not the elimination of voter ID.

Your party’s own international arm has already solved the problem you bring up. The answer is: maintain the rolls. Update the records. Issue the IDs. Accommodate name changes within the system, don’t use them as a reason to have no system at all.

The exact opposite of what you push here – refusing to clean voter rolls.

By NDI’s own standards, by the standards of your own international soft power branch, YOUR position is the anti-feminist position.

The SAVE America Act asks Americans to do less than what NDI demands of Nicaragua, less than what NDI praises in Morocco, and far less than the biometric fingerprint-and-facial-recognition system NDI supervised in Nigeria. Eighty-four percent of Americans support photo ID to vote. Two-thirds of Democrats support it. Jimmy Carter’s own 2005 bipartisan commission recommended it.

You voted no. Your party’s international arm, funded with taxpayer money, chaired by your party’s former Senate leader (Tom Daschle), staffed by your party’s most prominent voting-rights advocate, says yes. For everyone else.

NDI’s guides are publicly available on their website. You might consider reading them before you spout mindless drivel to protect your own grift.

March 23, 2026 – Part 1 “House of Singham”: Neville Singham’s mega-exposure

March 23, 2026 – John Brennan’s former Chief of Staff during Russiagate, turns CEO vying for Dept. of War contracts

John Brennan’s former Chief of Staff At The CIA During “Russiagate” Is Now Sneakily Trying To Acquire Government Defense Contracts Under Trump’s 2nd Term🚨

Cc: @POTUS @DeptofWar @SecWar @PeteHegseth

@Bloomberg just dropped a glowing puff piece on Brian Carbaugh, portraying him as some heroic “tech-savvy spy” transitioning from the CIA to CEO of Andesite, a Virginia-based data analytics (cybersecurity/AI SOC) startup.

The article, which was followed by Brian Carbaugh’s Bloomberg TV appearance, hype his journey from his time as an undercover spy in the Middle East to now working in boardrooms, raising capital, and building a company with “human-centered” AI for security.

See archived article here.

Carbaugh wasn’t just any CIA officer. He served as Chief of Staff to John Brennan, the former CIA Director under Barack Hussein Obama who orchestrated and pushed the entire Russia collusion hoax against President Trump.

Brennan’s team, including key staff like Carbaugh, played central roles in the weaponization of intelligence to undermine Donald Trump’s 2016 Presidential campaign and presidency with spying, leaking, and pushing the bogus Steele dossier narrative that wasted millions of taxpayer dollars and divided the country.

Now, Carbaugh is running Andesite, which is actively pursuing government contracts. Shockingly, under the Trump administration, Andesite has achieved FedRAMP High “In Process” status to sell into federal agencies, and they are now positioning themselves to receive DoW/intel community work and contracts. @DeptofWar

Source

A company led by someone tied to one of the biggest political scandals and abuses of power in modern history wants access to taxpayer-funded contracts and sensitive government data.

Brian Carbaugh shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near federal contracts. People involved in the Russia collusion hoax—whether directly or as senior staff to its architects—should face permanent bans from government work, security clearances, or any role involving public funds/intel.

This is the Deep State rewarding its own. We must end the culture in Washington DC of engaging in politicized intel ops and then turning that abuse of power into lucrative startup deals from the very government they once manipulated.

America deserves better than handing the keys and massive amounts of money to more Defense contractors within John Brennan and Barack Hussein Obama’s inner circle.

How about no contracts, no clearances, and no more second chances for those who abused power and engaged in a coup against President Trump, a sitting US president?

Secretary of War Hegseth @PeteHegseth should block Andesite from obtaining any @DeptofWar contracts!

March 23, 2026 – About Data Republican exposing the Deep State…and to those who refuse to see it

I am a huge Data Republican (small r) (“DR”) fan. I know many of you are as well.

But I’m not sure everyone fully understands the sheer bravery, brilliance and audacity of this deaf every-woman.

You see, the government you elect is not what actually governs you.

For every area of government (no matter how specialized or arcane), there are powerful lobbying groups, think-tanks, non-governmental organizations (“NGOs”), specialized media outlets, university-sponsored centers and other ostensibly “independent” organizations that act and behave as an unaccountable form of government outside the reaches of the electoral process. While these organizations claim to act in the public interest, each and everyone of them is a self-serving oligarchy that is designed solely to promote the interests of those on the inside–genuine public interest be damned.

This is America of course, and freedom of speech and freedom of association are fundamental to our freedoms. However, over many decades, these organizations have found “legal” ways to obtain trillions of your taxpayer dollars in the form of “grants” for “studies,” “policy symposiums” and all manner of other taxpayer-funded activities designed specifically to circumvent the policies the American people VOTED FOR and to perpetuate policies and activities that the average American has explicitly rejected.

These activities occur on both the Left and the Right, of course, but over time they have become the near exclusive domain of the Left. These organizations serve as taxpayer/Soros-funded, income-generating activities for Leftists whenever they are out of power, and if/when Leftists seize control of the Presidency or Congress, these organizations are the proverbial bullpens from which powerful Leftists full of the ideas you thought you once eliminated can storm right back into the actual process of governance, implementing all of those dark and mysterious policies that your tax dollars were secretly funding while the Leftists were otherwise off howling in the wilderness.

Call it the Deep State. Call it unconstitutional. Call it theft of your hard-earned taxpayer dollars. Call it the evil of the Soros family. Call it what ever you will, but know this—it is a monstrous Leviathan sitting right outside the scope of your votes, dedicated to negating your votes at your own expense, in the most diabolical manner possible.

It is the state outside the state. It is self-serving. It does not care about you. It only cares about itself. And its power is VAST.

You see it right here on X—you see the swarms of fire ants that come spilling out with destruction in mind whenever anyone uncovers the anthill they are lurking under.

And right at the heart of that is our hero, DR.

I have been actively following politics virtually my entire life, and never before has there been anyone quite like DR. Through dispassionate data analysis, the smart use of AI and a relentless drive for fairness and justice, DR has done more to shine a light on the nature of this extra-governmental Leviathan than any other person I can ever recall.

For her efforts, she has been doxxed by a mendacious Rolling Stone article. She has endured a concerted effort to destroy her husband’s totally unrelated business. She and her husband have received LITERALLY THOUSANDS of death threats. She and her family had to go into hiding.

An ordinary woman would have backed down in fear.

But not DR. They just made her mad. And an angry genius is an enemy no one wants to face. She still stares them down, day in and day out.

Her book will be out soon. Buy it. Buy copies for your friends. Buy copies and leave them on street corners and airport tables. AMERICANS NEED TO KNOW THE TRUTH. DR’s book may well end up being the most important and influential American book on politics since “Common Sense.”

If America is going to survive, we must ALL shine a bright light on this extra-governmental Leviathan, grab a hold of its fangs, and drain the venom out of them.

This is not playtime people. This is life and death. We glorify the warrior who does great deeds on the battlefield, as we should. But know that bravery comes in many forms, and as DR has stood in the fire and endured real threats to her life and existence, her audacious bravery is every bit as real as those heroes we see being decorated by the President.

Right now, in the USA, no unelected person is doing more to ensure freedom than Data Republican. You can support her by subscribing to her account, but you can also support her by being as brave as she is.

I aspire to maybe show such bravery myself some day. We all should aspire to that.

One day she will earn the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Together we can defeat The Beast.

CP, Bennett’s still playing the “just give me one example” game like it’s 2016 and nobody’s mapped the NGO blob yet.

DR has dropped truckloads of receipts—taxpayer-funded grant networks, revolving-door personnel spreadsheets, 501(c)(3) money-laundering diagrams, AI-assisted org charts showing how the same handful of left-leaning foundations & “non-profits” staff entire shadow cabinets whenever Dems lose power. Not to mention how the money is distributed.

No one needs to be spoon-fed anything from her buffet of data. All this fool needs to to is scroll her feed for five minutes (which I just did) and he would see the whole monster laid bare: Atlantic Council, Aspen Institute ecosystem, New America, endless “democracy” NGOs that somehow always end up pushing censorship, open borders, or climate lockdowns while cashing seven- & eight-figure government checks.

The reason this fool or any other can’t see a “Deep State” example is the same reason fish don’t see water—it’s the entire environment they’re swimming in. DR turned on the lights. Instead of thanking her (or at least engaging honestly), he’s doing the classic lib or bot routine: demand proof, ignore the mountain when it’s handed to you, then claim it doesn’t exist.

Cynical you are 100% right: her timeline is the proof. He and everyone who doubts anything that DR says or presents should read her timeline instead of demanding someone hold their hand through it. The data doesn’t care about anyone’s incredulity.

Keep going, CP and DR—because as we are seeing, the swarms are only get angrier as the map gets more and more accurate.

March 23, 2026 – Miranda Devine: We’re still learning the full rot of the Russiagate scandal

(…) Independent journalist Catherine Herridge’s searing interview with longtime Trump ally Michael Caputo last week gives you a glimpse into the Kafkaesque nightmare he endured at the hands of Mueller and his henchmen, such as Andrew Weissman, Brandon Van Grack, Zainab Ahmad, Aaron Zelinsky and Walter Giardina.

The FBI investigation into Caputo only ended after he made a personal appeal to Trump last December, he says.

There are so many others like Caputo who deserve accountability.

First come the revelations. Gradually, we are learning more details about the unprofessional atmosphere in the Mueller office.

Walter Giardina (Credit: public domain)

One of the central players was Giardina, a “very liberal” FBI agent who was fired from the bureau last year, according to new insights from a colleague who worked with him on the Mueller probe.

Giardina, who performed financial tasks in the special counsel office, was outspokenly biased against Trump, was convinced the lurid allegations in the discredited Steele dossier were true, and believed the president was a Russian agent, said his former colleague, who has been interviewed by the FBI.

“Walter Giardina was very liberal in his politics and very biased in his discussions about political matters and in how he felt about people in the Trump administration,” said the unnamed agent.

“Giardina was convinced this [Russia collusion] was the biggest investigation in the bureau and was a true believer. Giardina read and believed the Steele dossier.”

The “Steele dossier” was a Hillary Clinton campaign smear sheet concocted by British former spy-for-hire Christopher Steele that falsely alleged Trump had participated in “golden showers” with prostitutes in a Moscow hotel and was being blackmailed by Vladimir Putin.

These new revelations about Giardina’s anti-Trump hostility confirm previous claims by Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) that he was the FBI’s “Agent Zero,” who kept popping up in numerous anti-Trump operations.

Giardina played a “significant role” in the prosecution of Trump advisers Peter Navarro, Dan Scavino and Roger Stone, the Hillary Clinton cases, and in various “Get Trump” operations such as Arctic Frost, Crossfire Hurricane — and Mueller’s investigation, for which he received an award.

Grassley last year wrote to AG Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel, providing whistleblower allegations of Giardina’s “misconduct while on the taxpayers’ dime that ought to be investigated.”

The fact that Giardina harbored animosity toward Trump and his allies comes as no surprise to one of his victims, Navarro, a trade adviser to Trump in both presidencies.

Giardina arrested Navarro at Reagan Airport in Washington, DC, in 2022 as he was about to board a plane.

“He wouldn’t let me call a lawyer,” Navarro recalls bitterly, after spending four months in prison in 2024 for failing to comply with subpoenas from Nancy Pelosi’s January 6 star chamber.

“He put me in leg irons for a misdemeanor. He perp-walked my wife.”

“Giardina is the Forrest Gump of anti-Trumpism in the deep state, and he needs to be held accountable.

“He’s the single most important witness to uncover the orchestrated attack on Donald Trump and his lieutenants.”

Navarro’s assessment appears to be buttressed by the new recollections provided by Giardina’s former Mueller colleague.

Giardina has retired into obscurity, but he just might be drawn into the “grand conspiracy” investigation led by US Attorney Jason Reding Quiñones in the Southern District of Florida.

March 24, 2026 – NJ Governor visits mosque run by a radical imam convicted of funneling money to Hamas

New Jersey’s Democratic governor, Mikie Sherrill, who ran as a “moderate,” visited a local mosque on Friday whose cofounder was convicted of funneling money to Hamas.

She met with a cleric who has called for a “new intifada” and faced deportation proceedings over his own alleged ties to the terror group, @chuckrossdc reports.

Sherrill, sporting a head covering, visited the Islamic Center of Passaic County for Ramadan services, photos posted to social media show.

She met with Imam Mohammad Qatanani and described the mosque as a “community with the five pillars of Islam that is constantly looking to do good works.”

An Israeli jury convicted him in 1993 of being a member of Hamas, according to court filings from the Department of Homeland Security, prompting federal officials to file several deportation cases against him.

The mosque’s cofounder, Mohammad El-Mezain, was convicted in 2009 of funneling money to Hamas through the Holy Land Foundation.

March 24, 2026 – Government and university officials testify about espionage threats on college campuses

Government officials, university officials, including University of Michigan interim President Domenico Grasso, and a Stanford University student who has accused China of espionage on campus, testified at a House Education and Workforce Committee hearing on national security threats on college campuses. Topics included regulating foreign influence on college campuses, securing university research and intellectual property from foreign adversaries, efforts to lure university students and researchers to adversarial nations, and reporting requirements for foreign gifts and contracts.

The Chinese Spy Pipeline at the University of Michigan is SO BAD that multi-prong federal investigations are underway — and Congress is now fully involved

The worst part? UMich Interim President Domenico Grasso didn’t even care to look into the Camp Grayling spying incident. “They are just undergrads”

Watch him admit this to Congress last week
Why won’t UM do a full audit of compromised research and IP?

Not after Camp Grayling Chinese spying
Not after Detroit airport bio-smuggling
Not after the researcher dead post-FBI questioning

Instead, UM’s own union tells suspected spies: DO NOT cooperate with law enforcement

Taxpayer-funded treason on Michigan soil. Shut it down. #UMich #ChinaThreat #NationalSecurity

Same UMich. Same Chinese nationals. How many MORE red flags?

5 Chinese UM students (Shanghai Jiao Tong spy pipeline) caught at Camp Grayling photographing military vehicles, classified gear & Taiwanese training exercises. Lied to feds, deleted WeChat evidence.

Now: researcher dead after questioning + UM union tells spies: DON’T cooperate.

Infestation. Taxpayer-funded treason. Shut it down. #UMich #ChinaThreat

March 24, 2026 – Plaintiffs win the Missouri vs Biden censorship lawsuit by a Consent Decree

Senator Eric Schmitt (Credit: public domain)

We just won Missouri v. Biden.

As Missouri’s Attorney General, I sued the Biden regime for brazenly colluding with Big Tech to silence Missouri families — censoring the truth about COVID, the Hunter Biden laptop, the open border, and the 2020 election. They tried to turn Facebook, X, YouTube, and the rest into their private speech police, labeling dissent “misinformation” while they pushed their narrative on the American people.

Today, after years of unrelenting litigation, we deep state into a historic 10-year, court-enforceable Consent Decree. It directly binds the Surgeon General, the CDC, and CISA: no more threats of legal, regulatory, or economic punishment. No more coercion.

March 24, 2026 – John Brennan on MS Now: “Well, I tend to believe Iran more than I do Donald Trump”

It’s beyond parody that a former CIA director could be so out of touch, simply because he disliked an election outcome. This was a gathering of the so-called ‘morons’ on MS Now—true, that’s often the case, but this time, it was a particular brand of idiocy. They had John Brennan, Obama’s former spy chief, who arguably went rogue during the Russia investigation, claiming he would trust Iran, the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism, over Donald Trump.

John, are we experiencing dementia, or are you just getting your shots in before your probable indictment for giving false testimony about the Russiagate hoax, especially regarding the Steele dossier?

Trump launched Operation Epic Fury almost a month ago, where we’ve destroyed Iran’s navy, its nuclear weapons ambitions, and the core of its political and military leadership. The cream of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps is gone. The Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, is dead, and his son is pretty much half dead. Its ballistic missile capability has been severely degraded; its infrastructure and manufacturing base are being dismantled. This regime will collapse. But there’s been a pause as talks reportedly resumed on a new deal between the US and Iran.

“Well, I tend to believe Iran more than I do Donald Trump, because he could not acknowledge the truth even when it—he’s slapped in the face with it repeatedly,” said Brennan on MS Now.

March 25, 2026 – Minnesota election Judge pleads guilty to letting unregistered voters cast ballots in 2024 election

In another devastating blow to the Democrats’ endless claims that there’s no election fraud, a Minnesota election judge has now pleaded guilty to a felony for deliberately allowing unregistered voters to cast ballots on Election Day.

Timothy Michael Scouton, 65, of Nevis, Minnesota, the head election judge in rural Badoura Township, Hubbard County, admitted in court on Monday that he allowed 11 unregistered individuals to vote without meeting the most basic legal requirements.

Scouton was responsible for ensuring that all voting procedures complied with Minnesota law.

Instead, prosecutors say he accepted ballots from voters who had not completed legally required registration forms, a fundamental safeguard in the election process.

The Gateway Pundit reported in 2024 that the investigation was initiated after Hubbard County Auditor Kay Rave discovered discrepancies in the election materials returned by Scouton.

Among the ballots and documents was a glaring omission: no completed voter registration forms for the 11 individuals who had reportedly cast ballots, according to KSTP.com.

According to court filings, Scouton underwent both basic election judge training and head judge training earlier this year.

On November 7, Rave alerted authorities after discovering that the required registration documentation for the 11 individuals was missing.

Scouton was then arrested and charged with two felonies for this outrageous scheme.

Scouton ultimately admitted in court this week that he allowed the votes to be cast without proper registration, acknowledging that his actions violated the law. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 3/25/2026) (Archive)

March 25, 2026 – The NSA intercepted Ukraine government messages with USAID in Kiev, discussing plot to route money to Biden re-election

The “narrative” here is a classic case of alleged foreign election interference via U.S. foreign aid — but with the roles reversed from the 2016 Russia story. According to the Just the News report (published March 25, 2026), U.S. intelligence (primarily NSA) intercepted communications in late 2022 involving Ukrainian government officials and unnamed U.S. personnel connected to USAID’s office in Kyiv. The alleged scheme used a planned “clean energy” and infrastructure project in war-torn Ukraine as a front: hundreds of millions in U.S. taxpayer dollars would flow through the project, with ~90% allegedly diverted back to the United States via opaque, hard-to-trace subcontracts to benefit the DNC and Joe Biden’s 2024 reelection campaign.

The declassified intelligence summary (obtained by Just the News) describes the plot in those terms. Officials who reviewed the files say the Biden-era IC flagged the intercepts but showed little follow-up or “curiosity” about what would constitute serious foreign meddling in a U.S. election. Gabbard’s team found no record of a substantive investigation, and they assess the communications were not Russian disinformation. Gabbard’s Actions As DNI, Tulsi Gabbard directed USAID to review its records for any matching contracts, disbursements, or subcontracting patterns that might show the plan was executed. She is also considering a criminal referral to the FBI. President Trump reposted the story, amplifying it. This fits a broader pattern of skepticism about Ukraine aid accountability during the Biden years. Billions flowed with limited real-time oversight; critics long argued some money was recycled into U.S. political or contractor ecosystems. Past inspector general reports found no massive diversion of military aid, but this intercept focuses on a specific alleged “clean energy” channel with deliberate untraceability built in. Caveats and ContextThis remains allegations based on raw intercepts of discussions — not yet proven execution or convictions.

No major legacy outlets (CNN, NYT, WaPo) have broken their own independent reporting or detailed fact-checks on this specific memo as of March 26, 2026. Coverage so far is concentrated on conservative-leaning sites (Just the News, PJ Media, Newsmax) and international wires.

It directly inverts the 2016–2017 “Russia helped Trump” narrative that dominated media and led to years of investigations. Here, the claim is Ukraine (with alleged U.S. help) schemed to help Biden against Trump using American aid money.

Broader Ukraine aid debates have included earlier unproven claims of large-scale laundering; official audits have generally pushed back on the most sweeping versions, citing oversight mechanisms.

The story is moving fast on X and right-leaning media, with calls for full transparency on USAID contracting during that period. If USAID’s review turns up matching paper trails (or a lack thereof), it could escalate quickly — potentially leading to referrals, congressional hearings, or deeper audits of 2022-era aid flows. This is consistent with Gabbard’s pattern since taking office: aggressive declassification on past intelligence controversies (including her prior releases on 2016 Russia-related docs). Whether this particular intercept leads to concrete evidence of execution or remains a “discussed but not actioned” plot will determine how big it gets.

March 25, 2026 – House Intel Committee releases hidden transcript of Inspector General Michael Atkinson

For the past several years I have been advocating for ‘sunlight as the best disinfectant.’ Since September of 2025 I have been working through a painfully slow and convoluted process to share research, assist truth tellers and guide those who have the authority to deliver the sunlight. Today, I can happily report on progress.

In 2019 an impeachment effort against President Trump was triggered when a member of the National Security Council named Alexander Vindman coordinated with a member of the National Intelligence Council named Eric Ciaramella to fabricate a false claim that President Trump leveraged his power and authority to demand Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy release information on Joe and Hunter Biden’s corrupt financial dealings in Ukraine.

At the time of the 2019 impeachment construct Eric Ciaramella was working for the CIA as an analyst within the National Intelligence Council (NIC).

Two years prior to the 2019 impeachment construct, in January 2017, the same CIA analyst, Eric Ciaramella, had worked on the fraudulent Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) at the behest of CIA Director John Brennan.

[SIDEBAR: In 2025 Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, working with CIA Director John Ratcliffe, removed the NIC from inside the CIA.  To provide greater overall transparency within the intelligence community, the National Intelligence Council was moved into the purview of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI)].

Key point: Eric Ciaramella was one of the key analysts who constructed the fraudulent ‘Russian interference ICA’ (2017) and later the fraudulent impeachment effort (2019).  Eric Ciaramella became the “anonymous CIA whistleblower” in the 2019 impeachment effort.

Before 2019, CIA analysts weren’t allowed to anonymously make claims against political officials. Because of the sensitive information they handled, any allegation of wrongdoing based on intelligence had to be made with their name attached.

Intelligence Community Inspector General Michael Atkinson changed or modified the ICIG rules permitting Ciaramella to remain anonymous and make a claim that ultimately led to an impeachment effort.

Eric Ciaramella allegedly fabricated intelligence information, shared it with Congress and the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI), and then remained anonymous. HPSCI Chairman Adam Schiff was said to have assisted him.

On October 4, 2019, as part of the House impeachment inquiry, Intelligence Community Inspector General Michael Atkinson gave closed-door testimony to the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) as part of their impeachment investigation. One of the key questions to ICIG Atkinson surrounded the authority of his office changing the CIA whistleblower rules that permitted Eric Ciaramella to remain anonymous.

During later questioning by then-Congressman John Ratcliffe, as part of the House impeachment effort, it came to light that Inspector General Michael Atkinson testified CIA analyst Eric Ciaramella, the anonymous ‘whistleblower’, had lied about key details when questioned by Atkinson. WATCH VIDEO: 

(The look on Dan Goldman’s face during that questioning was both priceless and insufferable. John Ratcliffe is now CIA Director)

Because the anonymous whistleblower complaint by Ciaramella was the cornerstone of the impeachment effort, Chairman Adam Schiff sealed the transcript of ICIG Atkinson testimony, classifying it under the guise of national security interests and burying it in the HPSCI control system.

It’s worth reemphasizing that Eric Ciaramella was both the analyst behind the disputed 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment for Director Brennan and, later in 2019, involved in the contested impeachment effort. Both operations involved impeding and targeting President Donald Trump.

If congress, or more importantly the American public, had known CIA Analyst Eric Ciaramella was both the key author of the fraudulent 2016 ICA and the later 2019 CIA complaint, it’s doubtful any impeachment effort would have moved forward.

Inside the Intelligence Community oversight system, the Ciaramella connection to both IC operations could have been made.  His anonymity as a whistleblower served a purpose.  [DNI Tulsi Gabbard’s 2025 decision to remove the National Intelligence Council from behind the curtain of the CIA is additionally supported with this hindsight.]

The transcript of Inspector General Michael Atkinson’s testimony becomes a key document to release because at its core we know that Atkinson testified that Ciaramella lied.  The Ciaramella lie is at the heart of the impeachment attempt.

Don’t get lost in the details or the politics of this.  When you peel back all the layers of DC, at its epicenter this was an operation to impeach a sitting President that came from within the CIA, and it almost succeeded. {GO DEEP}

When a top administration intelligence official, holding what I believe to be the best possibility of making a difference, reached out, I began the assist by citing specific documents that would reveal a much bigger story.  The Atkinson transcript was one of those documents.

I have outlined how the silo system is constructed to intentionally impede or stop review. Adam Schiff isn’t stupid. He knew what he was doing and how to use the separation of powers for his purposes.  The executive branch would not easily be able to reach into the legislative branch and extract information.  That’s why then HPSCI Chairman, Impeachment Chairman and now Senator Adam Schiff buried the Atkinson transcript in the vault of the House Intelligence Committee.

The process.

♦ First, you need a republican President in the White House √. Second, you need an aligned Intelligence Community DNI √, and third you need a Republican controlled HPSCI √:

[¹] • To extract the transcript the Executive would first need to understand its value. • Then the Executive would need to know where it was. • Then the Executive would need a qualified stakeholder, with appropriate clearances, to request to review the transcript in the HPSCI secure compartmented intelligence facility (scif).  • If the HPSCI approved, the Executive would be given an appointment date to read it (no notes, no copying, just reading).  • Then, after reading, the Executive stakeholder would then need to request the HPSCI Chair and Ranking Member for a classified copy.  • The Chair and Ranking Member would need to agree to the value of the sunlight on the Legislative Branch controlled information. • To get a copy the entire House Intelligence Committee would need to vote on the release to the Executive.  • The vote would need to be scheduled on the committee calendar.  • A HPSCI vote would then take place:

WASHINGTON, D.C.— Today, the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence held a business meeting to consider multiple Committee actions. During the business meeting, the Committee voted in favor of releasing two transcripts from 2019 hearings with the former Intelligence Community Inspector General, Michael Atkinson. The hearings were held to examine Atkinson’s role in an alleged whistleblower complaint, which ultimately led to Democrats’ first impeachment efforts against President Trump in December 2019. One transcript would be released to the ODNI for classification review, and then subsequently released to the public by the Committee with the second unclassified transcript.

“The great deal of widespread speculation about the Atkinson classified hearing transcript is indicative of the American people’s complete and warranted mistrust of the Intelligence Community,” said Chairman Crawford. “In far too many instances, the IC hides behind the veil of overclassification. Sometimes sunlight is the best disinfectant. As part of the Committee’s continued effort to balance the transparency the American people deserve and the need to protect sensitive national security information, we hope that the release of these transcripts allows the American people to make their own determinations. As Chairman, I remain committed to ensuring this Committee, where possible, is transparent as the IC works to rebuild trust with the American people.”

The transcripts will be posted on the Committee website once they undergo the standard classification review with the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.  (source)

The HPSCI has voted to release the Atkinson Transcript.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard will now walk the unhidden transcript through the declassification process. The fastest way is through President Trump’s office.   Hopefully the redactions will be minimal.  Then we will all get to see it.

This has been a long, frustrating and complicated process – but we have succeeded.

FINAL POINT: You can tell this is a long arduous process. However, once the process begins, you’ll note that certain tripwires are crossed, and people in/around DC find out what you are doing.  Yes, DC ‘interests’ realized months ago that Tulsi Gabbard was on the trail of this transcript.

Now do the recent attacks against DNI Tulsi Gabbard gain context?

March 26, 2026 – Mark Warner: “Noncitizen voting is extraordinarily rare – The SAVE America Act is a total sham”

Speaking of “problems that are not real…”

Weren’t you part of the “Gang of Eight,” who were pushing the Trump Russian collusion hoax?

Or was that a different Mark Warner?

“The top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee investigating Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election said Sunday that lawmakers have found “enormous evidence” of possible collusion between President Trump’s orbit and Russians during that election.”
Appearing on “Meet the Press,” Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., disagreed with the assertion by his Republican counterpart on the committeethat congressional investigators have found nothing “that would suggest there was collusion.”

“But Warner made it clear that he’s seriously concerned about a possible link between the Russians and Trump’s allies and campaign apparatus.
“I’m going to reserve judgment until I’m finished, but there’s no one who can factually say there isn’t plenty of evidence of collaboration or communication between the Trump Organization and Russians,” Warner said.
“I have never in my lifetime seen a presidential campaign, from a person of either party, have this much outreach to a foreign country and a foreign country that the intelligence community [says], and our committee has validated, intervened massively in our election and intervened with an attempt to help one candidate, Donald Trump, and hurt another, Hillary Clinton.”

https://nbcnews.com/politics/meet-the-press/warner-enormous-evidence-contacts-between-trump-campaign-russia-n978651

The real question is this Senator:

Did you collude with McCain, Schiff, Obama, Hillary, Brennan, Comey, Clapper and Christopher Steele, to frame a duly elected president?

Did you participate in a coup and treason?

Are you an enemy combatant?

March 26, 2026 – Tim Walz sues Trump administration over ICE-involved shootings – Builds case with leftist nonprofits and the UN

The State of Minnesota has filed a lawsuit against the Trump Administration in its ongoing attempt to investigate ICE and CBP agents who were involved in shootings during law enforcement activities.

The incidents include the shooting deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, two crazed leftists who attacked ICE agents, and Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis, a criminal illegal alien who was wounded while attacking ICE agents in northern Minneapolis in January.

Minnesota is suing for evidence and information on the shootings, for which the FBI previously denied state investigators access.

On Thursday, Tim Walz discussed the lawsuit on MSNow, revealing that he is working with the American Civil Liberties Union, pro-immigrant groups, and even the UN to build his case, while accusing the Trump Administration of human rights abuses.

He further trashed President Trump, stating that he will continue fighting for so-called justice until “the final days of this administration and beyond.”

March 26, 2026 – Whistleblower exposes massive election fraud ring in CA – State supplies stolen names, gangbangers, rigged petitions, paid homeless signatures

(…) In Part II of the “Cash for Ballots” series, O’Keefe and Higby captured hidden camera footage of petitioners paying desperate homeless individuals $2–$3 per forged signature to impersonate real registered voters using pre-printed lists of actual California voter names and addresses.

(…) During an interview with Alex Jones, investigative journalist James O’Keefe said that he and associate Cam Higby have obtained whistleblower testimony from within a Democrat Party–affiliated operation.

In an exclusive sit-down interview posted on YouTube on Thursday, Cam Higby spoke with an anonymous member of the illicit operation, who admitted EVERYTHING on tape.

According to Higby, “the gangbangers obtain the lists of names from the registration office and then distribute the names to the petitioners on the streets.”

(…) Here is how the massive fraud ring operates, according to the whistleblower:

Bribing the Homeless: Petition circulators are illegally paying homeless drug addicts a couple of bucks to sign ballot initiatives and register to vote.

Widespread Identity Theft: Because valid signatures require registered voters, the fraudsters use preprinted lists of random people’s names. The homeless individuals are then paid to forge signatures using these stolen identities.

The “75% Rule”: According to the whistleblower, circulators only get their full payout if at least 75% of their signatures come from verified registered voters, heavily incentivizing them to fake the data.

GANG INVOLVEMENT: It gets worse. The fraudsters admitted that local street gangs are heavily involved, selling lists of names and acting as enforcers on the street.

The Subcontractor Loophole: The massive organizations funding these petitions shield themselves from criminal liability by using a web of “middleman” companies and independent subcontractors, keeping their hands completely clean.

Perhaps the most terrifying revelation from the interview is where the gangs and fraudsters are getting the names of the registered voters to forge.

When Higby asked where the names come from, the whistleblower dropped a massive truth bomb: they are allegedly buying them directly from corrupt voter registration databases.

“They get it from the registration office. They pay a lot of money… from the registration office directly,” the fraudster admitted on tape, calling the state offices “corrupt as hell.”

March 26, 2026 – “Hands Off Iran” protest in Philadelphia cheers for American troops returning home ‘in caskets’

Sponsors of the Hands Off Iran protest in Philadelphia March 26, 2026 (Credit: Surge Philly)

Shocking video from a radical anti-Iran war protest in Philadelphia showed participants explicitly supporting Islamic terror groups and calling for “cheers” every time an American servicemember comes home “in a casket.”

Demonstrators at the “Hands Off Iran” protests in Philadelphia have carried signs condemning the war and attacking Israel, President Donald Trump, and even Democratic Sen. John Fetterman. One speaker in a video that went viral Thursday explicitly praised terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah and advocated for a “strong Iranian state” to maintain their “fighting capacity” against Israel.

In the clip filmed by Philadelphia-based conservative activist Frankie Scales, the masked speaker drew loud cheers as he declared they celebrate American deaths and called for bringing the U.S. “to its knees.

As of publication, seven American military personnel were killed or died from wounds inflicted by hostile action during Operation Epic Fury, while six others were killed in the crash of an Air Force refueling aircraft in support of the operation.

“Until we have done everything in our power to bring the United States to its knees, let us not lose sight of the enemy,” the speaker said. “For every US military base that crumbles and for every US soldier who returns home in a casket, we cheer. Hamas, Hezbollah, Ansar Allah, all of the resistance forces we celebrate, these popular forces on the ground spend every waking moment in direct confrontation with Zionism, and they rely on a strong Iranian state to maintain their fighting capacity.”

March 26, 2026 – The geopolitics behind Iran and beyond

3 weeks ago I argued the US goal in Iran is to seize the global oil spigot. Venezuela in January -> Iran in February.

Neutralize every supply channel outside the dollar system within 90 days. Achieve a compliant successor government and complete energy dominance.

The oil thesis was the obvious layer. However, when you zoom out & view the last four years as a single sequence rather than isolated geopolitical events, the architecture of the grander US plan becomes visible.

1st was Europe, which laid the groundwork.

The Ukraine conflict provided the justification for sanctions that collapsed Russian pipeline gas from 150 billion cubic meters to 40.

Then Nordstream was destroyed, which rewired the entire European energy system permanently. The US went from supplying 28% of Europe’s LNG in 2021 to 58% by 2025, exporting a record 111 million MTs, the 1st country in history to break 100 MT.

Europe was transformed from a customer with options into a captive market now purchasing its survival in USD.

2nd was Syria.

The fall of Assad severed the critical node connecting China’s Belt & Road Initiative to the Mediterranean.

The trilateral railway linking Iran, Iraq & Syria, designed to bypass Western maritime chokepoints, was completely destroyed.

This isolated Iran geographically & cleared the path for what came next.

3rd was Venezuela.

In January the US effectively took control of the world’s largest heavy crude reserves. The US Gulf Coast has the most advanced refining complex on earth, specifically built for heavy sour crude. Phillips 66, Valero & the rest are now positioned to process hundreds of thousands of barrels of Venezuelan crude daily.

The US captured a massive strategic reserve & solidified its position as the dominant exporter of refined petroleum products, an industry worth $110 billion in 2025 alone.

Venezuela & Iran were the two major oil supply channels that existed outside the dollar system. Both produce heavy crude sold primarily to China & evaded US financial supervision. Both now being neutralized within 90 days, which leads us to..

4th is Iran & the Middle East energy shock.

Israel struck Iran’s South Pars gas field, the world’s largest natural gas reservoir. Iran retaliated against Qatar’s Ras Laffan, the single largest LNG facility on earth, responsible for a fifth of global supply. QatarEnergy’s own assessment is that 17% of export capacity is gone and recovery will take up to 5 years. The Strait of Hormuz is closed. European gas prices spiked 70%. Asian spot prices doubled.

The only remaining scaled supplier? The United States.

If Iran falls & a successor government is installed that the US controls or influences (the Delcy model described weeks ago) then roughly 40 to 45 million barrels per day of global production out of 103 million is effectively under US control. OPEC becomes irrelevant because the US coalition is now the marginal producer. Now add the gas dimension & it goes beyond oil.

This war is solidifying the petrodollar system as it evolves into a hybrid petro/LNG-dollar. The old system was built on Saudi crude priced in USD. The new system is built on American crude plus American gas from the Gulf Coast, with no alternative supplier of comparable scale. The dependency is deeper because LNG infrastructure requires long term contracts & regasification terminals that lock buyers into supply relationships for decades. Europe & the Pacific allies (Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, etc.) cannot pivot away as there is nowhere left to pivot to. They’re now locked into the US energy system.

The market confirms this. DXY went from 96 to 101. Gold down ~20% from its January all time high. Bitcoin down 20% on the year. Brent above $100. European & Asian institutions are liquidating precious metals and crypto to buy dollars because they need dollars to buy the only remaining scaled energy supply. The world is selling its gold to buy American energy in American currency. The dollar is now being weaponized through energy dependency.

The structural repricing is happening regardless of how the conflict resolves.

But the US grand strategy goes deeper..

Artificial intelligence is a physical industry. It runs on power and chips. Data centers require massive uninterrupted baseload electricity, primarily provided by natural gas. Semiconductor fabrication requires helium & rare earths.

By choking the Strait of Hormuz & crippling Middle Eastern LNG & helium production, the US is systematically degrading China’s ability to power its data centers & fabricate semiconductors at scale.

The US is energy self sufficient, especially with newly captured Venezuelan reserves & expanding Gulf Coast capacity running on domestic gas.

On the other hand, China is import dependent & every joule it imports effectively now transits chokepoints the US Navy controls..

Iran was the Belt & Road’s overland energy bypass, the corridor that allowed China to mitigate the Malacca Trap. With Iran neutralized that corridor is severed. China faces a world where its compute infrastructure competes for scraps on a depleted global LNG market, while American data centers run at full capacity on domestic energy.

Russia is next in the sequence. A post-war Iran reopening under US influence competes directly with Russia for the same refineries in China & India at lower cost. Iran’s production costs are lower. Russia loses its last structural advantage in heavy crude & its economic lifeline. Additionally, under the Iran war cover, Ukraine has been opportunistically destroying Russian energy infrastructure & all signs point towards Russia being at the end of the line. The message from Washington becomes very simple: we dismantled two regimes in three months, your economy is about to get crushed, sign the Ukraine deal.

Then Trump sits down with Xi holding every card. Complete energy dominance. The hybrid petro/LNG-dollar fortified, Iran cleared, Russia cornered, & China facing the Malacca Trap fully closed with no remaining energy bypass.

Israel & the GCC are absorbing the kinetic cost of a conflict whose primary beneficiary, counter to the mainstream narrative, is actually America (First). Qatar offline for 5 years reprices the entire global gas market in favor of US exporters for the remainder of the decade. The Gulf states face years of rebuilding. Europe faces its 2nd energy crisis in four years.

Sure, the average American might face temporary moderate inflation & higher gas prices. But if you are the architect of the US empire & you view the rise of China & Chinese ASI as an existential winner takes all scenario, the collateral damage is acceptable cost.

Whoever controls the energy corridors controls the monetary system. Whoever controls the monetary system & the energy supply simultaneously controls the compute infrastructure that determines which civilization builds ASI first.

The US is seizing all 3.

March 27, 2026 – Ethics panel finds Democrat Rep. guilty of improperly using funds for disaster relief and faces expulsion

Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (Credit: Andrew Harnik/Getty Images)

House lawmakers just took a major step toward booting a sitting Democrat from Congress.

A bipartisan ethics panel voted to move forward with a process that could ultimately expel Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, who’s accused of funneling millions in disaster relief money into her campaign. The panel found Cherfilus-McCormick guilty on 25 counts.

An investigative subcommittee signed off on a motion for summary judgment, essentially concluding she committed nearly all the violations outlined earlier this year.

The decision followed a rare public ethics hearing Thursday — the first of its kind since 2010 — that stretched more than six hours. Lawmakers from both parties pressed her legal team as the eight-member panel, led by Rep. Michael Guest, weighed the case.

“After careful deliberation that lasted until well past midnight, the adjudicatory subcommittee found that Counts 1-15 and 17-26 of the SAV [statement of alleged violations] had been proven,” committee leaders said in a statement.

The allegations are sweeping. Investigators say Cherfilus-McCormick improperly used funds tied to disaster relief, filed false financial disclosures, and sought “special favors” tied to earmark requests. She’s also facing a separate federal indictment.

The panel will reconvene after the Easter recess to recommend punishment, with expulsion on the table.

Rep. Greg Steube has already pledged to push an expulsion vote regardless of what the committee decides. That would require a two-thirds majority in the House, meaning Democrats would have to cross the aisle.

So far, party leadership has largely stuck by Cherfilus-McCormick. But cracks are beginning to show.

“The allegations before us are extremely serious,” Rep. Mark DeSaulnier said at the start of Thursday’s hearing. “They not only concern an individual member’s conduct, they also implicate the public’s confidence in the House’s integrity as an institution.” (Read more: Trending Politics, 3/27/2026)  (Archive)

March 28, 2026 – The European Parliament approves tough deportation plan: immediate expulsions and an unprecedented shift in migration policy

Europe has just crossed a line that, until very recently, many believed was impossible to cross.

The European Parliament has approved the most radical plan for detaining and deporting illegal migrants ever proposed within the Union—an overhaul that dramatically tightens border controls and speeds up the removal of those who enter irregularly.

The approval has triggered a political shockwave in Brussels.

Not only because of how forceful the measures are, but because of how quickly they will take effect:
deportations and returns will be enforced immediately, without long bureaucratic delays, without months of waiting, and without the legal loopholes that for years allowed thousands of migrants to remain in Europe despite having final expulsion orders.

The message from the European Parliament is unmistakable: the era of vague policies, half-measures, and empty declarations is over.

Europe—pushed by national governments, overwhelmed reception systems, and growing public frustration—has decided to impose a 180-degree shift in its migration model.

This new framework places border security at the center of the debate.

It grants more power to member states, minimizes detention times, and streamlines procedures to return irregular migrants to their countries of origin or to designated safe third countries.

The change is so significant that even within the Parliament several MEPs have described it as “a before-and-after moment in the history of the European project.”

Others celebrate it as a necessary step to regain control, protect Europe’s external borders, and dismantle the human smuggling networks that for years have decided who enters the continent. (Gateway Hispanic, 3/28/26)  (Archive)

March 30, 2026 – Swalwell sends Kash Patel cease-and-desist letter as FBI Director pushes to release the Fang Fang files

Eric Swalwell is panicking as Kash Patel pushes to release salacious files related to his relationship with Chinese spy and honeypot Fang Fang.

Democrat Rep. Swalwell is currently running for Governor of California.

Lawyers for Rep Eric Swalwell sent FBI Director Kash Patel cease and desist letter.

“Attorneys for Rep. Eric Swalwell demanded in a letter to FBI Director Kash Patel that the bureau refrain from releasing decade-old investigative files involving the congressman’s purported ties to a suspected Chinese intelligence operative,” the Washington Post reported on Monday.

“Swalwell’s attorneys said in their letter that there was no justification for releasing the files, especially since the congressman had assisted the FBI in its investigation,” WaPo reported.

“The congressman has never been accused of wrongdoing in that matter and your attempt to release the file is a transparent attempt to smear him and undermine his campaign for governor of California,” the letter said, according to WaPo. “Your actions threaten to expose you, others at the FBI, and the FBI itself to significant legal liability.”

(…) Conservative reporter Nick Sortor previously confronted a drunk Swalwell about his relationship with Fang Fang.

March 31, 2026 – Judicial Watch FOIA uncovers FBI objections to Mar-a-Lago raid

(Credit: Conservative Treehouse)

BREAKING: @JUDICIALWATCH FOIA UNCOVERS FBI OBJECTIONS TO MAR-A-LAGO RAID! The documents also how leftist groups helped spur the targeting of President Trump over presidential records, FBI objections over there was “probable cause” to justify the planned raid on Trump’s home, and evidence of leaks to left media about the investigation. The documents were produced in response to a Judicial Watch FOIA on “Plasmic Echo”–the code name for the secret investigation of the Trump records issue.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• FBI’s Washington Field Office explicitly told DOJ it did not believe probable cause existed for a search warrant of Mar-a-Lago—including the former president’s residence and bedroom—yet DOJ proceeded anyway. Internal WFO emails dated July 12–13, 2022, state that WFO does not believe probable cause has been established for the search warrant at Mar-a-Lago, and that the case agent does not believe there is PC for the 45 Office or the bedroom due to recency and issues of boxes versus classified information. Despite this documented objection, DOJ directed the search to proceed on August 8, 2022.

• A senior FBI WFO official raised concerns about DOJ’s handling of the pre-search contact with Trump’s attorney, citing a DOJ official’s statement that he “frankly doesn’t give a damn about the optics.” In an August 4, 2022 email, the WFO Assistant Special Agent in Charge requested that the FBI—not DOJ—make first contact with Trump attorney Evan Corcoran before the search. The official cited the “antagonistic relationship” built by DOJ with Trump’s counsel and quoted a DOJ official’s indifference to the optics of the search.

• WFO repeatedly proposed less confrontational alternatives to a search warrant and was rebuffed each time by DOJ. Internal WFO documents outline multiple alternative courses of action rejected by DOJ: contacting Trump or his counsel directly; requesting DOJ contact Evan Corcoran; pursuing a consent search; and seeking a new NARA referral for presidential records. WFO wrote that five weeks fixated on probable cause for a search warrant have been counterproductive.

• The investigation was opened as a Sensitive Investigative Matter on February 11, 2022 following FBI Headquarters direction, after coordination with the FBI’s Deputy Director, OGC, and DOJ. Multiple Import Forms document that on February 11, 2022, the Counterintelligence Division Associate Director met with the FBI Deputy Director, OGC, and DOJ and then directed WFO to open PLASMIC ECHO as a SIM. Named HQ participants included Lisa Gentilcore and Alan Kohler of the Counterintelligence Division.

• Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) and the National Security Archive sent a letter to the Attorney General and FBI Director requesting a criminal investigation—and that letter was routed into the PLASMIC ECHO case file and acted upon within days. A February 24, 2022 Import Form records that WFO was notified of a letter from CREW and the National Security Archive, dated February 8, 2022, requesting DOJ investigate whether former President Trump violated federal criminal law by willfully mutilating and destroying critical records of his presidency. It was assigned to the FBI’s Counterintelligence Division with a Sentinel due date of March 17, 2022.

• The Washington Post was seeking confirmation of FBI outreach to witnesses in “Trump’s orbit” months before the August 8, 2022 search, and the WFO Public Affairs Officer documented the inquiry in the case file. A May 12, 2022 Import Form documents that the WFO Public Affairs Officer received a call from The Washington Post seeking confirmation that DOJ had issued subpoenas to NARA and that the FBI had begun reaching out to and/or interviewing individuals in Trump’s orbit related to the investigation. The officer provided no comment. [pp. 86–87 of 212]

• CD Assistant Director Alan E. Kohler Jr. sent an all-hands email to Counterintelligence Division staff the day after the search, defending the investigation and stating it was conducted by the book in the most professional manner possible. Kohler’s August 10, 2022 email acknowledged erroneous press reporting but stated agents were prevented by DOJ and FBI policy from sharing investigative details, and that he vowed not to repeat the mistakes of the past. The email was forwarded into the PLASMIC ECHO case file the next day.

• Director Wray sent a bureau-wide email the day after the search stating the FBI does not cut corners and does not play favorites, while the WFO’s own internal documents show field agents had formally disputed the probable cause basis for the search. Director Wray’s August 11, 2022 bureau-wide message—filed into the PLASMIC ECHO case file—stated the investigative steps taken were measured and scrupulously consistent with national security obligations. This was sent the day after WFO’s internal emails documenting its disagreement with DOJ over probable cause had already been filed into the same case record.

March 31, 2026 – Former CO Secretary of State Jena Griswold turned a state office into America’s prototype for centralized election control

The Colorado Coup You Never Heard Of: How Jena Griswold Turned a State Office into America’s Prototype for Centralized Election Control

GPS—when @TheJusticeDept is ready to proceed, reach out!

Follow the money, especially focusing on family members assisting in hiding Griswold’s alleged nefarious assets.

Free Tina Peters! @realtinapeters

Jena Griswold’s tenure as Colorado Secretary of State marks one of the clearest state‑level examples of how bureaucratic offices can be captured by national political networks under the rhetoric of “protecting democracy.”

Her initial campaigns were overwhelmingly financed by Washington‑based super PACs such as Emily’s List, End Citizens United, and the Democratic Association of Secretaries of State—an early warning that outside capital was buying influence over a state‑administered system.

Once elected, she centralized power by rewriting election procedures through emergency rules, purging career nonpartisan staff, and funneling nearly every significant contract through a single vendor: Dominion Voting Systems. She paired this consolidation with information control, branding any attempt at independent auditing or public data access as “disinformation.”

Behind the scenes, the same organizations that funded her campaigns built an interlocking structure—from legal activists to media gatekeepers—that kept the office ideologically synchronized with national agendas. Marc Elias’s Law Group and think‑tanks such as the Brennan Center produced legal templates later mirrored in Griswold’s rule‑makings.

Simultaneously, her communications team worked hand‑in‑glove with friendly outlets to portray critics as extremists, while friendly nonprofits flooded the public narrative space with “fact‑checking” pieces that repeated SoS talking points verbatim. The result was not mere partisanship but a closed information loop designed to shrink public oversight.

Financially, Colorado’s election apparatus evolved into a self‑funding ecosystem. Private capital flowed from mega‑foundations through dark‑money conduits like the New Venture Fund and Sixteen Thirty Fund into “local civic groups,” which then received state contracts or grants to implement programs that those same donors demanded.

Taxpayer dollars amplified these investments through matching state funds, while contractors such as Dominion and Google‑linked cloud services recycled profits back to consultant firms and PACs allied with the donors. Each cycle, the donors showcased these “successful reforms” to justify another round of funding, transforming democracy advocacy into a perpetual revenue machine.

The cumulative effect has been the quiet conversion of a ministerial state office into a politically networked command post: laws rewritten by decree, transparency reclassified as a threat, and independent audits criminalized. Electoral integrity was replaced by narrative control. Reversing such capture would require strict bans on private grants to election offices, full open‑source publication of voting software, and public‑ledger accounting of every vendor and subcontractor connected to the Secretary of State.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

UPDATE 4/3/2026

Trump confirms Pam Bondi is moving to a new position.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Take.

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

Action.

Take action.

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

See the theme? It’s agency.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

California is a cash machine.

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

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

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

Seemingly every state program has been compromised by criminals.

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

Welcome to Gavin Newsom’s empire of fraud.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

New Smurf Evidence

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

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

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

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

UPDATE: 4/4/2026

New York Times:

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

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

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

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

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

NYT:

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

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

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

NYT:

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

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

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

(Credit: video clipping)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

In short:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

“To me, it’s shocking.” ☠️

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

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

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

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

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

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

Middle East 24 reported:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

🔥 Neoliberal Chaos as a Governing Strategy

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

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

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

🧩 The Pattern Repeats: Ukraine and Beyond

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

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

🕸 The Logic Beneath It All

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

History will not remember it as diplomacy.

It will remember it as economic warfare against civilization itself.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

April 6, 2026 – Eric Swalwell is accused of sexual harassment and rape by former staffers

NEW: Eric Swalwell will soon face s*xual harassment accusations from his former staffers, according to lawyer and activist @CheyenneHuntCA.

Hunt says she is working with multiple women to expose his “pattern of manipulation.”

One woman says Swalwell makes all his interns, whom he has slept with, sign NDAs so they don’t say anything.

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

Swalwell is currently running for governor of California.

Rep. Eric Swalwell denied claims by a former staff member that he had sexually assaulted her, once when she was working for his office and years later when she was no longer an employee. “These anonymous election eve claims are categorically false,” his campaign said. (Credit: Rich Pedroncelli/AP)

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

Hello Representative Salazar,

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

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

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

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

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

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

And your constituents can see it.

We see you.

You are a fraud, Representative Salazar.

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

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

Pages 162-170… The Dream Act:

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

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

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

…which is literally mass amnesty

BUT THE BILL GOES EVEN FURTHER!!!

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

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

If you are an illegal aliens who:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

 

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

But that’s not the story.

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

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

Ceasefire lasts fewer hours than a domestic flight.

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

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

Iran is a country negotiating with itself at gunpoint.

Trump already knows this.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Are you paying attention?

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

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

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

1. They have zero qualms about lying.

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

Sometimes I feel like Spock gawking at Doctor McCoy.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Eric Ciaramella: The Democratic national security “whistleblower,” whose complaint led to President Trump’s impeachment. It’s not clear if Ciaramella also played a role in the drafting of the January 2017 assessment. (Credit: whitehouse.gov)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

NEW RECORDS VIA @DNIGabbard @RepRickCrawford
ATKINSON TRANSCRIPTS

– First Trump Impeachment + Whistleblower Motive

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

(U.S. Air Force graphic)

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

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

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

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

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

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

Originally, United States Senators were chosen by state legislatures.

This was not a procedural technicality.

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

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

The people would have their voice.

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

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

James Madison explained the purpose clearly:

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

The Senate was a structural mechanism for preserving that balance.

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

The 17th Amendment Removed a Structural Protection Against Federal Overreach

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

On its surface, the change sounded democratic.

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

Before the 17th Amendment:

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

After the 17th Amendment:

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

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

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

What Followed: Expansion of Federal Power Into State Domains

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

Among the commonly cited results:

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

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

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

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

The Founders Understood the Danger of Consolidated Power

Alexander Hamilton warned:

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

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

Federalism was never merely a technical arrangement.

It was a protection for liberty.

As George Mason warned:

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

The 17th Amendment blurred that boundary.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

MAGA!

With commentary from @zach_rehl

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

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

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

And the force that helped force this unprecedented reversal?

Grok.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

We won’t forget it.

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

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

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

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

Here’s the reality:

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

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

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

And guess what…

They’re ALMOST THERE.

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

This is NOT a joke.

💥No constitutional amendment.

💥No national vote law passed by Congress.

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

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

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

This isn’t some future idea.

This is happening RIGHT NOW.

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

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

These motherfuckers aren’t hiding it anymore.

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

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

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

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

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

And when it activates? Chaos.

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

Withdrawal clauses? Cute on paper.

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

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

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

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

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

The venom here is the slow boil:

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

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

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

This must be decimated. Immediately.

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

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

The Republic was never a democracy by design.

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

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

Appointed by President

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

I don’t say that lightly.

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

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

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

They were inseparable.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

THERE IT IS.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

#ClarenceThomas
I have posted brief clips of Justice Clarence Thomas’ recent remarks.
I now welcome sharing the full delivery and exhort all those who see this to view it in its entirety AND SHARE IT especially with those within younger generations. Thank you.

Justice Thomas provides RIVETING historical context and perspective on the Progressive (aka Retrogressive) Movement within America post-1900, including focus:

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

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

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

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

12:20-16:23: Justice Thomas inspires us to embrace, display and live a life of COURAGE and FAITH in an ACTIVE Defense of Liberty and the Principles of our Inalienable Rights Endowed by our Creator.

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

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

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

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

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

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

LD: experimentation!!??

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Lawsuit is being filed.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

(…)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

This is insane. We investigated. Check this out…

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

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

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

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

What is this?!

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

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

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

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

 

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

(Credit: Evan Vucci/AP)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

It says:

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

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

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

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

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

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

CONCLUSION:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

 

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

I report. You draw your own conclusions.

As always, patience as I pull together the thread

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

🔺Duke openly boasts in the video….

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

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

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

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

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

These are chants straight from Aleksander Dugin’s playbook.

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

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

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

It was Dugin’s dream come true.

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

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

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

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

❓ So here’s the real question:

🔺Were they ALL getting paid by the SPLC?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Targets included:

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

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

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

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

The real-world consequences followed.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

 

 

Grok question:

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

Answer:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Better view:

The president released a photo of the shooter:

h/t Gateway Pundit

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

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

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

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

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

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

-Believed to be the alleged shooter, taken into custody

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

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

-Trump, Melania, and all protectees confirmed safe

The questions about how he got that close start now.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Per The New York Post:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

More Manifesto:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Democrats must hold so-called Hakeem accountable.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

That’s not a bug. It’s a feature.

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

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

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

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

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

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

No more false equivalence.

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

What to do? 🇺🇸

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

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

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

 

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The floodgates are opening.

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

Here’s what it shows.

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

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

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

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

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

Some of the examples included:

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

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

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

Key figures also ensnared in the investigation:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

This may all change under FBI Director Kash Patel.

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

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

It is impossible to disagree.

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

Jennings broke it all down.

Townhall has details:

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

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

Jennings then played a clip of Lieu speaking.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

April 28, 2026 – A top adviser to Anthony Fauci has been indicted for his role in covering up the origins of the COVID-19 epidemic

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

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

April 28, 2026 – Former FBI Director James Comey indicted again for Trump assassination Instagram post

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

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

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

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

Press Conferences

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Post 2: 8647 in shells.

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

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

Comey is telling you exactly what he is doing.

Reading his book.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Obama’s Secret Stay Behind Army

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

All roads lead to Obama.

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

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

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

Key findings from the report include:

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

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

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

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

Another day, another warning sign from the Washington establishment.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

“Hahaha,” his fellow DOJ prosecutor responded.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

 

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

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

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

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

Seth Moulton, you pathetic, boot-licking disgrace.

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

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

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

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 – Justice Department files complaint against D.C. Bar disciplinary authorities

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.

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}

The files Ms. Lineberger is accused of stealing, relate to the Jack Smith case files from the Mar-a-Lago investigation that Judge Aileen Cannon previously sealed.  [Link Below] It appears attorney Carmen Lineberger was in the process of covering her tracks when she was discovered downloading the material and transmitting it outside the U.S. Attorney offices.  {INDICTMENT HERE}

After Special Counsel Jack Smith was dispatched by Judge Aileen Cannon, his team continued to organize materials to frame the hit against an incoming Trump administration.  Judge Cannon calls out this wrongdoing as part of her ruling to keep all the records sealed.  [Ruling pdf Here]

“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.”

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.

(Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 5/28/2026) (Archive)

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.”

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.

June 1, 2026 -British police release bodycam footage showing cops handcuffing and arresting Innocent stabbing victim as he dies

The case of murdered victim Henry Nowak is horrific, and representative of just how far the United Kingdom has fallen.

18-year-old Henry Nowak was violently attacked and brutally stabbed by an Indian man named Vickrum Digwa. When police arrived the attacker claimed the victim called him racist names.  The police then handcuffed the bleeding victim and told him he was under arrest.

Henry Nowak continually told police he had been stabbed by Digwa and could not breathe.  The police didn’t believe him, and fraught with political correctness that demands they protect the minority rights of the Indian attacker, the U.K. police read the victim his rights and dragged him over the ground. Henry Nowak bleed to death and died as a result of his stab wounds.

The police laughed at the white male victim and mocked Henry Nowak while he died.

Eventually, the police realized the Indian man Vickrum Digwa was -indeed- the attacker and video evidence showed young Nowak was attacked and stabbed at random.  Digwa was arrested and forced to stand trial.  With overwhelming evidence against him, he was convicted of murder.  Following the conviction Henry Nowak’s father gave a press statement.  WATCH:

When the public found out during trial that police had actually handcuffed the victim and ignored his pleas for help, outrage grew.

The entire case is stunning in just how messed up Great Britain really is. The police never even handcuffed the attacker, even after they found out he was guilty of murder. Then, adding salt to the wound of the entire matter, Digwa’s defense team sought to shift blame for the murder from their violent client to the politically correct police.

The Nowak family was barred from speaking about the murder and the police conduct during the trial. However, as evidence in the trial was shown, the public found out about it. Demands for release of the officer’s body camera footage were made. No one could believe what they were hearing. The police and courts refused to release the footage until public and political pressure became just too much.

The body-cam footage is below.

🇬🇧 @RupertLowe10 opened the rape gangs debate in Parliament by putting the real question on the table: who let this happen?

“This is some of the worst things I’ve ever heard. The people involved and the people who knew and didn’t act must be held accountable.”

That is the part Britain cannot keep dodging.

The abusers must face justice, but so must every official who had the power to stop this and chose not to.

LIBERAL PATHOLOGY SACRIFICES YOUR CHILDREN TO REWARD FOREIGN MALICE

The modern progressive state requires human sacrifice to sustain its multicultural delusion. When a dying, innocent boy is forced into handcuffs while his foreign parasite killers dictate the narrative, your civilization has officially declared war on its own citizens. Read the chilling reality of how poisonous left-wing ideology is actively cannibalizing the West before the regime censors the truth entirely….

Imagine enjoying a normal night out, walking down the street with the carefree innocence belonging to every young person in a civilized nation. You are sober and completely unaware that the shadows harbor absolute malice. Suddenly, a blade tears through your flesh, spilling your life force onto the pavement. This was the horrific reality for Henry Nowak, an innocent young man who expected safety but found a predatory nightmare engineered by the radical collectivist cult transforming our streets into active combat zones.

As you lie there hemorrhaging, the state apparatus arrives to enforce ideological programming rather than save your life. You beg for help, stating explicitly nine separate times that you cannot breathe, yet the heavily conditioned officers ignore your pleas. They force your weakening body against a wall and snap cold steel handcuffs around your wrists while the actual culprits dictate a fabricated narrative of racial grievance. You watch your own hands go white in those cuffs, dying because therapeutic tyrants prioritize progressive optics over citizen survival.

You must recognize that Henry Nowak died in those constraints because his white skin color sealed his administrative fate. The institutional gatekeepers applied immediate, calculated bias, automatically validating the fraudulent claims of a foreign culture while a native son bled to death. The legacy media apparatus executed a total blackout because a white victim offers zero political utility to the regime. Had the racial roles been reversed, every major city would be engulfed in riots, yet Henry’s agonizing final moments are met with absolute, coordinated silence from the left-wing press.

This paralysis is driven by the insidious mechanics of suicidal empathy, a psychological disease engineered by the progressive managerial elite to ensure civilizational collapse. This pathology forces a society to extend its deepest sympathy exclusively to the outsider and the offender, while showing absolute cruelty to its own people. Liberals have weaponized empathy to dismantle our defensive instincts, conditioning the public to accept its own victimization as moral righteousness while subordinating community survival to hostile actors.

Do not comfort yourself with the delusion that this horror is isolated across the Atlantic, because the exact same progressive rot is actively cannibalizing America. In every major American metropolitan center, bleeding-heart subversives have implemented the identical framework of lawlessness, disarming citizens while coddling predators. The same administrative malice that handcuffed a dying boy in England is currently releasing violent felons onto American streets, demonstrating the systematic demolition of Western order by an elite class.

Look at the tragic parallel of Iryna Zarutska to understand that this globalist experiment knows no borders. She fled the artillery fire of war-torn Ukraine, seeking refuge in the presumed safety of North Carolina, only to be brutally butchered from behind on a Charlotte transit train. Her killer was a coddled, repeat violent offender who remained free to terrorize the public due to soft-on-crime policies pushed by local liberal politicians. Just like Henry, Iryna was completely innocent, an industrious young woman slaughtered because left-wing judicial architectures prioritize predators.

We must ask how many more young men and women must bleed out alone and terrified in the streets before the public rejects this madness. Every single day, parents are forced to stand over cold caskets, apologizing to their dead children because the state stripped them of the ability to protect them from mass industrial abuse and savage violence. Children are being actively sacrificed to death by a political class eager to appease foreign cultures that maintain absolute contempt for Western civilization, normalizing rape and open slaughter to preserve their multicultural utopia.

The time for passive observation has reached its absolute expiration, and we must summon a wave of unyielding, righteous fury to shatter this entire corrupt consensus. You must look back in total, uncompromising anger at an elite class that actively imports populations that hate us while criminalizing our natural instinct for self-preservation. We must forcefully reject the psychological tyranny of the left, rebuild our borders, and permanently dismantle the administrative state.

This civilizational suicide stops the exact moment we refuse to apologize for our existence and reclaim our sovereignty.

Police Force Sought to Cast Stabbing Victim Nowak as Aggressor, Planned to Lecture Public on ‘Misinformation’: Report

June 1, 2026 – Paul Krugman: “We really need to do a thorough purging of the United States.” – “We need a deMAGAfication…similar to de-Nazification”

Democrats don’t want debate—they want domination and punishment.

Paul Krugman openly calling for a “thorough purging” and
“deMAGAfication” of America modeled on de-Nazification is one of the most depraved, un-American things a public intellectual has said in my lifetime.

This is a New York Times columnist fantasizing about persecuting and silencing half the country. The mask is gone.

The immorality is staggering. Krugman isn’t a serious thinker; he’s a vengeful partisan who spent decades being wrong about nearly everything while cashing checks from the very institutions he helped corrupt.

Now that Americans rejected their agenda, his solution is authoritarian revenge dressed up as morality.

Disgusting. And dangerous. Never forget who said this.

June 2, 2026 – Obama’s Marxist history and how DEI—Woke infiltrated the U.S. government

Here is:

Barack Obama, in the early 1990s, leads a protest at Marxist Harvard University in support of then-professor Derrick Bell.

Bell was a founder of DEI and critical race theory. He spent his career teaching that Whites are oppressors and Blacks are victims. He went on strike at Harvard, demanding the school hire more Black professors. Sounds familiar?

Over a dozen Harvard professors went to work for the Obama abomination administration after he won the election in 2008.

And that’s how Marxists—DEI—Woke—have effectively hijacked and infiltrated the U.S. government.

RealRobert… This DEI Program has within it an additional item that few may have knowledge of.
Its “IAT”… “Implicit Association Testing”.

It was Introduced into Biden’s Federal Gov. as an Intitiative to “Train Any Implicit Bias .. Out of You”.
His Exec Order 14035 was the DEI Initiative.

In my Humble opinion ..IAT is The Most Dangerous Control Mechanism ever devised by Man.
http://preservingamericaepac.com

Obama is selected as one of 40 editors of the Harvard Law Review (HLR), but he apparently writes only one article for the publication. In it, he argues against placing any limits on abortion, with the remarkable statement that abortions would “…prevent increasing numbers of children born into lives of pain and despair.” (In other words, “Their lives will be miserable anyway, so why not just abort them now?”) His fellow editors elect Obama president of the HLR, partly in sympathetic response to the demands of Professor Derrick Bell that a black woman be appointed to the law faculty—a racist and sexist demand which Obama fully supported.

Derrick Bell is a proponent of “critical race theory,” which argues that the centuries-old foundation of law in the United States should be replaced by a new system of justice that takes into account past inequities like slavery. Bell argues that the law should treat people not just as individuals; it should also have different rules for different groups. Because of the injustices of slavery and past discrimination, for example, a convicted black crack cocaine dealer should be treated less harshly in his sentencing than a white drug dealer. Bell is among a growing group of leftists who are willing to discard American laws and traditions simply because they were the achievements of “old white men,” and whose goals are symbolized by the chanting of Jesse Jackson at a 1987 Stanford demonstration: “Hey, hey, ho, ho, Western culture’s got to go!”

The syllabus for a class Obama teaches in the spring of 1994, “Current Issues in Racism and the Law,” covers the topics, “Discussion of Reconstruction and Jim Crow,” “Discussion of Black Response,” and “Discussion of Civil Rights/Backlash.” Student discussion topics suggested by Obama include, “The All-Black, All-Male School,” “Interracial Adoptions,” “Racial Gerrymandering,” “Race and the Criminal Justice System,” “Racial Bias in the Media,” “Welfare Policy and Reproductive Freedom,” “Affirmative Action,” and “Reparations.” For the slavery reparations discussion, Obama poses such sample questions as, “Do such proposals have any realistic chance of working their way through the political system?” and “Would there be any legal impediments to such a broadly-conceived reparations policy?” Required reading assigned by Obama includes works by Derrick Bell, his critical race theory professor at Harvard. If most of the classes taught by Obama are in a similar vein (another of his classes was called “Race, Racism, and the Law”), he should be considered a teacher of race and the law, rather than a professor of constitutional law. His choice of subject matter suggests that the issue of race affects every aspect of his life.

June 2, 2026 – Nick Shirley: A prime example of fraud and waste inside California’s homeless industrial complex

June 2, 2026 – Data Republican: How a Protest is Built – Delaney Hall

ORG CHART EXPOSED: Which NGOs Are Organizing the Newark Protests, and How a six-word Signal message shut down a thousand-person protest.

On the night of June 1, 2026, journalist @NickSortor drove to Delaney Hall expecting what he’d seen for ten straight days: hundreds of protesters surrounding Newark’s 1,000-bed ICE detention facility, human chains blocking federal vehicles, pepper balls and tear gas, helmets and gas masks distributed from organized supply stations, catered meals arriving on schedule. He found silence. The crowd — 200-plus the night before — was gone, with tens of thousands of dollars in pre-staged gear abandoned in place.

What happened between Sunday morning and Sunday night was a single message in an encrypted Signal group, as discovered by @bitchuneedsoap. A Cosecha NJ communicator posted a six-line announcement: “Cosecha is NOT mobilizing to Delaney Hall tonight. We are talking to strikers and their families to regroup.” No negotiation, no vote, no gradual loss of enthusiasm. Some switch had been flipped off.

The natural question is how a protest of that size can be turned off with one message. The answer is that it was never a protest in the way most people understand the word. It was an operation — assembled, maintained, and disbanded through an organizational structure that looks, once you map it, like a military deployment with a nonprofit org chart.

The structure has four layers. Each answers a different question. Layer 1 decides whether to act. Layer 2 decides how many show up. Layer 3 decides what happens on the ground. Layer 4 keeps the whole thing running across days.

Understanding these layers is understanding how every major protest in America works, because the same people built the template.

Layer 1: Strategy

Four organizations sit at the top. They don’t move bodies. They decide if bodies should be moved.

The parent node is the Ayni Institute, a Massachusetts nonprofit founded by Carlos Saavedra. Ayni incubated three organizations: Cosecha (the dispatch network that ran Newark), Momentum Community (which wrote the training curriculum), and IfNotNow (an anti-Israel movement which adapted the model for other movements). Ayni has trained over 13,000 activists globally. It reported$3.29 million in assets for 2024.

Momentum Community, based in Long Beach, California, provides the theoretical framework. Co-founded by Saavedra and Paul Engler, Momentum developed what they call “hybrid organizing” — fusing union-style discipline with mass protest energy. Their key innovation is a concept called “frontloading”: concentrating the bulk of organizing resources into a short escalation window rather than spreading them across years. This is exactly the pattern at Delaney Hall, where crowd size spiked from dozens to 200-plus within four days.

Organizations that adopted Momentum’s methodology include Cosecha, IfNotNow, and the Sunrise Movement — a lineage documented in Waging Nonviolence’s 2021 reporting on the model’s spread. The same activation mechanics used at Delaney Hall have been deployed across climate protests, anti-war actions, and campus occupations.

The third strategic player is NDLON — the National Day Laborer Organizing Network, headquartered in Los Angeles with 69 member organizations nationwide. NDLON created the “ICE Out of NJ” campaign and ran a Justice Bus tour on March 27, 2026, making six stops across New Jersey to map local organizational capacity. That tour happened 56 days before the hunger strike. It functioned as a network dry run: establishing who could do what, where, and how fast.

NDLON’s Organizing Director, Jorge Torres, coordinated the eleven-organization ICE Out of NJ collective from a national perch. NDLON’s communications director, Palmira Figueroa, handled media for the Newark protests from a 425 area code — that’s Seattle. A national LA-based organization’s Seattle-area press person was running comms for a Newark protest. The chain of command was never local.

NDLON received over $2 million in direct Open Society Foundations grants between 2016 and 2022.

The fourth strategic entity is NJAIJ — the New Jersey Alliance for Immigrant Justice, a 50-plus member coalition that provides institutional legitimacy. NJAIJ doesn’t dispatch people. It provides the respectable umbrella under which action campaigns operate. Its website hosts both the “ICE Out of NJ” and “Eyes on ICE” campaign pages. It is fiscally sponsored by NEO Philanthropy — its donate page routes through Network for Good “care of NEO Philanthropy,” and grants to NJAIJ are received by NEO Philanthropy’s entity — which reported $168.9 million in revenue for 2024. Under current IRS fiscal sponsorship rules, sponsored projects don’t file their own Form 990. The money is invisible.

Multiple organizations hold simultaneous membership in both NJAIJ’s 57-member coalition and ICE Out of NJ’s eleven-organization collective. These dual-membership organizations are the bridge between the respectable policy wing and the action wing. Directives can flow between them without a visible command hierarchy.

This is where the crowd comes from. Layer 2 is how 200 people materialize at an industrial lot in Newark on a Tuesday.

Cosecha NJ runs a cell structure borrowed from movement theory. They call them “circles” — groups of 3 to 7 people, each with a communicator whose job is to receive and relay activation messages. Circles combine into “communities,” communities into “villages.” Any three people who share Cosecha’s vision can form a circle with no permission from national leadership. Cosecha’s own documentation, published on Gitbook, describes the model.

At the 2017 Day Without Immigrants action, approximately 80 circles were coordinated nationally by a 27-member national team. If roughly 50 circles are active in the NJ/NY/PA corridor, a single message to circle communicators reaches 150 to 350 people; the math of the circle model itself. When you see a crowd appear at a protest within hours, this is the mechanism. It’s not word of mouth. It’s a relay network with assigned roles.

Cosecha also operates one of the only statewide rapid response hotlines in New Jersey — a partnership with DIRE branded “Cosecha X DIRE,” reachable at a 1-888 number. Three other hotlines cover individual counties. Cosecha covers the state. When an ICE alert goes out anywhere in New Jersey, Cosecha’s hotline is the one that activates the broadest network.

The dispatch layer also includes Signal-coordinated shuttles along the I-95 corridor bringing participants from New York and Philadelphia to Newark. In the one arrest batch with full geographic data — six arrests on Friday, May 30 — five of six were from out of state.

Cosecha claims zero paid staff. Instead, “over 30 volunteer organizers work for the movement full-time” through what appears to be communal living arrangements. This shows up on the IRS filings: zero executive compensation. The communal living model means organizers have near-zero personal expenses and can be redeployed to any geography on short notice.

Layer 3: Tactics

The people who show up have been trained. The training pipeline runs from Momentum Community’s hybrid organizing curriculum through the War Resisters League NVDA Agenda,  Beautiful Trouble tactical toolbox, and Ruckus Society direct action techniques. NJAIJ hosts the Ruckus Society’s“Direct Action & Safety” curriculum on its own website. Module titles include “Introduction to Blockades” and “Advanced Blockades.”

The Eyes on ICE Substack, with 42,000-plus subscribers, publishes a comprehensive wiki document that teaches the SALUTE report — a standard U.S. Army tactical intelligence format (Size, Activity, Location, Unit, Time, Equipment) adapted for civilian ICE monitoring. Signal is mandatory. Biometrics disabled. Metadata scrubbed.

At Delaney Hall, the tactical layer deployed human chains, de-arrest positioning, clergy blockades, and lockbox devices — all standard techniques from the documented curriculum. The crowd was executing a playbook.

A small cadre of 5 to 15 serial protest deployers traveled from outside the region. Ian Austin, an Army Ranger from Pennsylvania, had been arrested at a Minnesota church harboring migrants in January before deploying to Newark. John Rozendaal, a 65-year-old cellist from Manhattan, had four prior arrests across climate and police protests. Nicholas Scelfo from Brooklyn was tracked from BLM 2020 to the No Kings coalition to Delaney Hall, where he was charged with threatening to murder an ICE officer. DHS Secretary Mullin said agents arrested people who “came in from Portland to lead.”

These are not locals who got angry. They are repeat deployers who travel between protest sites the way consultants travel between client engagements.

Sustaining 200 people at an outdoor protest for ten days requires procurement, transportation, and supply chain management. Fox News documented pre-staged supply stations with organized containers established before the protests began. The gear included standardized kits — helmets, shields, gas masks, respirators — estimated by journalist Nick Sortor at roughly $100 per person. Catered meals arrived at the protest site on schedule. Street medics staffed medical tents.

After the stand-down, all of it was abandoned in place. You don’t leave $100 gas masks on the ground if you’re planning to come back tomorrow.

The confirmed funding floor across the network is $20-plus million: roughly $5 million from Open Society Foundationsdirectly, millions through the Arabella Advisors network(New Venture Fund),

$3.5 million from the Ford Foundation to Make the Road, and smaller grants through theFund for New Jersey. The specific line item for Delaney Hall field costs — the shuttles, the gear, the meals — has not been traced to any single grant. That’s the point. The money flows through fiscal sponsorship arrangements and intermediary organizations designed to make individual expenditures untraceable on public filings.

The Off Switch

On May 28, six days into the hunger strike and four days before the stand-down, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told the White House press room that a joint IRS-FBI investigation into protest funding networks had made “substantial progress.” Then he added the line that mattered: “If a grant recipient is violent, if they are suppressing people’s rights, then YOU are responsible for that.”

That “you” was aimed at upstream funders. NEO Philanthropy, with $168.9 million in revenue, fiscally sponsors NJAIJ. Open Society Foundations had millions flowing to network organizations. Every 501(c)(3) in the chain was suddenly exposed — not for what their staff did, but for what any grant recipient downstream of them did. Rocks thrown at horses, human chains blocking federal vehicles, mattresses thrown at ICE agents, more than 60 arrests. Under Bessent’s framework, every upstream funder was potentially liable for all of it.

Four days later, the stand-down came. A single message in a Signal group. The crowd vanished. Unions that had been holding separate pickets at Delaney Hall the same day — HPAE, 32BJ SEIU — kept going. Same police conditions, same curfew. The unions weren’t in the command structure. Their off switch was their own.

What This Means

None of this is secret. Cosecha publishes its circle model on Gitbook. Momentum describes frontloading on its website. NDLON’s press releases name its staff. The 990 filings are on ProPublica. The training curricula are hosted on NJAIJ’s own domain.

The infrastructure was built in the open because it’s legal. Nonprofits can organize. People can protest. Foundations can fund advocacy. The question was never whether any of this was permitted. The question is whether the public understands what they’re looking at when they see a “protest” on the news.

What they’re looking at is a four-layer operation with a strategic command that decides whether to act, a dispatch network that assembles the crowd through cell-based relay, a trained tactical corps executing a published curriculum, and a logistics tail that keeps the operation fed, equipped, and transported for as long as the strategic layer decides it should run. The same template — built by the same people, funded by the same foundations, trained through the same curricula — has been deployed at climate actions, campus occupations, and immigration protests across the country.

When the curfew orders came down, perhaps assisted by the machine getting a credible threat to their tax-exempt status, the machine shut down in one Signal message. That is the difference between a movement and an operation. A movement doesn’t have an off switch.

June 3, 2026 – Trump ends the ‘debanking’ of conservatives

(Credit: The NewYork Times)

During the Biden era, it felt like everything was being weaponized.

Think about it. The courts were weaponized. Federal law enforcement was weaponized. Social media companies worked hand-in-glove with government officials to suppress stories and viewpoints they didn’t like.

(…) Conservatives, religious Americans, gun manufacturers, energy companies, and other politically “naughty” groups found themselves facing the new debanking. There were no criminal charges, convictions, or due process. This punishment came in the form of an official notice that your account was closed, your services were terminated, or your business relationship was no longer welcome.

It was literally destroying people’s lives, because progressive bankers decided conservatives didn’t deserve to have an income.

That’s why this latest breaking news is one of the most important victories of Trump’s second term.

His team has been fighting weaponization in all its forms, but this latest move is about to gut and end one of the most dangerous forms of political weaponization in modern America.

The first step was getting rid of the “vague standard” that allowed regulators to pressure banks into treating certain customers differently based on politics, beliefs, or lawful business activities.

Washington Examiner:

(…) Recently, the nation’s primary regulator of national banks finally eliminated what had, over time, metastasized into an absurd and destructive intrusion of partisan politics into the country’s free enterprise system.

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, joining with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, published a final rule prohibiting federal regulators from pressuring banks to drop customers on the basis of so-called “reputation risk.”

(…) No longer will regulators be able to force banks to close accounts or withhold products or services because of a customer’s “political, social, cultural, or religious views or beliefs, constitutionally protected speech, or solely on the basis of politically disfavored but lawful business activities perceived to present reputation risk.”

It’s insane to think this happened in the United States of America. But it did. The federal government actually had a setup that allowed regulators to target people and businesses based on “reputation risk.”

What’s really scary is that this weaponized loophole has spread into major industries and some of America’s biggest banks.

WE:

Companies that had been steady, tax-paying job creators were suddenly “debanked.”

In a December 2025 preliminary report, the OCC named Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, and seven other major banks as having engaged in debanking that targeted politically sensitive industries — from oil and gas to firearms manufacturers.

If lawful businesses can lose access to financial services because powerful people don’t like who they voted for, nobody’s rights are truly safe. Because that loophole can be flipped in a heartbeat. (Read more: Revolver News, 6/3/2026)  (Archive)

June 3, 2026 – Democrats threaten to block FISA 702 reauthorization over Trump appointing Bill Pulte to replace Tulsi Gabbard as acting DNI

(Credit: Conservative Treehouse)

Oh, this is just awesome news.  Republicans are going bananas. Democrats, led by senate intel vice-chairman Mark Warner are having fits and meltdowns.  All of it because President Trump announced the appointment of Bill Pulte to replace Tulsi Gabbard at the end of the month as Acting DNI.

To make the issues even better, Democrats are now threatening to block FISA-702 reauthorization and stop the warrantless surveillance of American citizens unless Pulte’s appointment is withdrawn.  Yes, read that again slowly if needed – it’s perfect. 🤣😂🤣

WASHINGTON DC – […] Senate Intelligence Committee Vice Chair Mark Warner (D-Va.) asked Senate Majority Leader John Thune on Tuesday to use his influence with the White House to reverse Trump’s move to install Pulte as overseer of the nation’s 18 intelligence agencies, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter.

Warner, who’s been critical in building Democratic support for a bipartisan deal to extend FISA Section 702, made clear to Thune that all options are on the table to reverse what Democrats see as a dangerous Trump pick to lead ODNI. Pulte, who currently leads the Federal Housing Finance Agency, has no national security experience and has used his existing role to exact revenge on Trump’s political foes.

From Warner’s perspective, it’s impossible to convince enough Democrats to support a reauthorization of Section 702 when Pulte would be the one overseeing the program. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer has also privately told senators that the Pulte appointment makes passing a FISA deal much more difficult.

Plus, Democrats believe they’d be doing Republicans a favor because they also see Pulte as unqualified for the job, even if few openly say it. As we scooped Tuesday, the White House had indicated to top Republicans that Aaron Lukas, whom Trump announced as the acting DNI 12 days ago, would remain in the role for an extended period. Senate Republicans felt blindsided. (more)

There is a particular stupidity within Washington DC, a genuine blind spot they don’t even notice exists, when it comes to issues attached to the Intelligence Community.  I promise you folks; these IC people are genuinely ideological and not smart at all.

The bipartisan knuckleheads are so fraught with self-interest and the need for control, they cannot fathom how Bill Pulte would be elevated to Acting Director of National Intelligence just so existing Deputy Director Aaron Lucas doesn’t have to get bogged down in the quicksand of bureaucracy.

Pulte can attend the meetings, summits, foreign ministerial gatherings, go to the briefings etc. and keep Aaron Lucas completely unencumbered to continue the work begun by DNI Tulsi Gabbard.

Because the Intelligence system in Washington DC controls so much of the activity, and because DC is so territorial – filled with people who demand personal credit for everything that takes place, they have no concept that Pulte’s appointment might be something entirely different than the customary head of a silo they feel entitled to control.

The Intelligence Community in Washington, DC is filled with ideological stupid people.  Trust me on this one; you give them way more credit than they deserve.   [Watch first few minutes, it’s hilarious]

Federal agents, in a daring predawn raid Wednesday, pounced on the opulent, $35 million Newport Beach mansion of an Iranian tech boss charged with supplying US computer hardware to Iran’s military and nuclear programs.

The California Post was there as the feds arrested Jamshid Ghomi, 63, of Newport Coast, who was charged with conspiracy to violate the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and is expected to appear Wednesday afternoon in Santa Ana federal court.

The businessman, who is a dual citizen of Iran and the US, is accused of selling computer hardware to the Iranian government for use in its military and nuclear operations. Prosecutors allege Ghomi made millions on those deals and invented elaborate schemes to hide the transactions.

“Ghomi is accused of aiding our declared enemies by selling US-origin computer networking parts to Iran and earning millions of dollars in violation of US sanction laws,” said Los Angeles’ top federal prosecutor Bill Essayli.

“We will hold him accountable by seeking an appropriate prison sentence and by seizing his assets, including his $35 million Newport Beach mansion,” he added. (Read more: New York Post, 6/3/2026)  (Archive)

June 3, 2026 – Trump signs EO making senior Feds that influence policy decisions, more accountable to the American people

RESTORING ACCOUNTABILITY TO THE FEDERAL WORKFORCE: Today, President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order that makes senior Federal leaders that influence policy decisions more accountable to the American people.

  • The Order reclassifies about 8,000 senior policy-influencing positions into Schedule Policy/Career.
  • While this rule allows for heightened accountability, these remain “career” positions and the non-partisan hiring processes, competitive status, and other aspects of these roles will not change. Removal decisions will also be made without respect to political affiliation.
  • Roles listed on Schedule Policy/Career are at-will positions. Agencies can remove employees in Schedule Policy/Career for poor performance, misconduct, corruption, or subversion of Presidential directives without lengthy procedural hurdles that often prevent accountability, consistent with the ability to remove appointees responsible for implementing the President’s agenda.
    • 97% of reclassified positions are GS-15 or Senior Level positions (or the equivalent in agencies with different pay plans). These are the highest-ranking career positions outside of the Senior Executive Service.
    • These roles include agency positions such as directors, deputy directors, chiefs of staff, senior advisors and policy analysts, employees with significant involvement in drafting regulations and guidance, public affairs and legislative affairs leaders, and employees with significant involvement in determining who gets Federal grants.

FIXING A BROKEN SYSTEM: Personnel rules make removing Federal employees for any reason exceedingly difficult. Consequently, employees with significant policy-making responsibilities can stay in their jobs for years even if they perform poorly, engage in misconduct, or are unwilling to advance Presidential policy across administrations, making their agencies less capable of delivering for the American people.

  • Federal employee removal procedures are lengthy and burdensome. Removals and subsequent appeals often take a year or more to process. As a result, agencies seldom remove career employees, even at senior levels, including for egregious conduct or subversion of Presidential priorities.
    • When polled, a plurality of senior federal employees in Washington, D.C. said they would ignore a lawful order from President Trump that they considered bad policy, although all executive branch employees report to the President.
    • During the first Trump Administration, career employees refused to assist on policy matters like prosecuting racial discrimination in higher education or drafting rules regarding Title IX reform because of their personal policy disagreements.
  • Elected officials must be able to hold policy-making career employees accountable for their performance and conduct in order to operationalize the policies that voters elected them to pursue.

DRAINING THE SWAMP: President Trump is delivering on his promise to dismantle the deep state and reclaim our government from Washington ineptitude and corruption.

  • President Trump authorized buyout programs to encourage Federal employees to leave voluntarily. Adoption was large, yet unsurprisingly, the Federal government has remained more than capable of delivering on its core functions for the American people.
    • Under President Trump, the Federal workforce has been reduced to its lowest level since 1966.
  • Last year, President Trump signed an Executive Order requiring Federal hiring to follow specific policies and procedures established by agency leadership to improve the efficient delivery of government services.
  • President Trump’s Office of Personnel Management has proposed rules to improve Federal employee performance appraisals, expedite removals for serious misconduct, and streamline the cumbersome reduction-in-force process.
  • President Trump established a new Civil Service Rule XI, requiring agencies to affirmatively determine whether probationary employees’ performance warrants retention, rather than letting them become tenured permanent employees by default, which was the previous practice.
  • Today’s Executive Order builds on Executive Order 13957, which was issued in President Trump’s first term to reclassify senior federal workers in policy-related roles as at-will employees, enabling swift accountability for those in influential positions.
    • When President Biden took office, he revoked Executive Order 13957, reinstating a system that shielded unaccountable bureaucrats. The Biden Administration also issued regulations that sought to prevent such accountability measures by a future administration.
    • President Trump vowed on the campaign trail to reinstate Executive Order 13957, a promise he kept on his first day returning to office. The Office of Personnel Management has since rescinded the Biden Administration regulations that prevented Schedule Policy/Career’s immediate implementation.

June 3, 2026 – Difficult Freedom or Easy Tyranny: Which Will America Choose?

(Credit: Alonzo Chappel/National Archives via AP)

“Society cannot exist, unless a controlling power upon will and appetite be placed somewhere; and the less of it there is within, the more there must be without. It is ordained in the eternal constitution of things, that men of intemperate minds cannot be free. Their passions forge their fetters.” – Edmund Burke

Most men have never understood the point Burke made, which is why most men, down through history, have lived under government oppression. Americans, however, have absolutely no excuse for living under a tyranny like the Democratic Party is trying to establish. Our Founding Fathers constantly repeated the point so eloquently made by Burke: “Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters.” – Benjamin Franklin

We aren’t listening.

“The course of history shows that as a government grows, liberty decreases.” – Thomas Jefferson

Men have a choice—liberty or tyranny. And that is the very battle America is fighting now. And, “there is no liberty without morality” (Burke). The tyranny America is battling within its borders today is coming from the Democratic Party, not those who are trying to follow our Founders and the Judeo-Christian heritage they built the country upon. “To suppose that any form of government will secure liberty or happiness without any virtue in the people is a chimerical idea,” said James Madison. No virtue, no liberty.

Burke, and our Founders, made this as plain as can be. Personal self-control is freedom. Government control is tyranny. This is why the Left hates America’s Judeo-Christian heritage. Both religions teach self-control, which means freedom. The Left doesn’t want that because the Left wants government totalitarianism. They want promiscuity, they want licentiousness. They want as much sin in society as possible, as much self-indulgence as imaginable, because self-control means freedom. By its very definition, self-control is freedom; we freely choose to do the right things, and thus, don’t need government force to compel us to do them. But the Left is encouraging, glorifying self-absorption in America, decadents who do not control themselves, thus will need government to step in and do it. Growing government ultimately means tyranny.

June 4, 2026 – Trump appoints William Pulte as acting DNI; Mark Warner panics

William “Bill” Pulte (Credit: Wikipedia)

President Trump’s appointment of William J. Pulte to serve as Acting Director of National Intelligence is drawing praise from lawmakers in the nation’s capital. A battle-tested reformer with deep experience safeguarding highly sensitive information and overhauling massive government institutions, Pulte brings decisive leadership, proven integrity, and a fierce America First commitment to the Intelligence Community.

Pulte has a track record of transforming inefficient bureaucracies, protecting critical American assets, and confronting entrenched interests — exactly the outsider leadership needed to ensure our nation’s intelligence agencies focus on their core mission: protecting the American people and confronting global threats.

Here’s what they’re saying:

Sen. Jim Banks: “While Democrats play politics with our national security, @pulte will put the American people first. He is a friend, ally, and patriot who will fight to drain the Swamp of our intel community, and keep America safe. I look forward to working with him as Acting Director of National Intelligence.”

Sen. Marsha Blackburn: “Congratulations to @pulte on being named Acting Director of National Intelligence. I applaud his willingness to serve our nation and look forward to supporting him.”

Sen. Katie Britt: “As a member of the Senate Banking Committee, I’ve enjoyed working with @Pulte in his capacity as Director of Federal Housing. I appreciate his willingness to serve and dedication to our country. I wish him success in this critical role for our national security.”

Sen. Bernie Moreno: “A great pick by President Trump! My friend @Pulte will lead the DNI with integrity, cripple the deep state, and always prioritize America’s national security and the safety of our citizens!”

Sen. Tommy Tuberville: “I am ALL FOR Bill Pulte as the Acting Director of National Intelligence. He has done an excellent job in his role as Director of Federal Housing, and I’ve worked closely with him to get the WOKE NONSENSE out of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Bill is an America First PATRIOT, and I am confident he is the right man to drain the SWAMP in our intel community.”

Rep. Andrew Clyde: “President Trump has a phenomenal track record of making out of the box appointments that deliver results for the American people. Bill Pulte will be a great Director of National Intelligence.”

Rep. Lance Gooden: “If Democrats, RINOs, and the deep state are all vehemently against @pulte as Director of National Intelligence, he is the right man for the job.”

Rep. Paul Gosar: “The Left & DC establishment are melting down over @POTUS selection of Bill Pulte.  Here’s a reminder: @POTUS was elected to lead the Executive Branch & has every right to surround himself with America First people he trusts to carry out his agenda.  Pulte has proven himself to be a fighter, a reformer & someone willing to challenge a broken status quo.”

Rep. Abe Hamadeh: “As a former intelligence officer, I know the importance of fearless transparency and courageous leadership to keep our country safe and strengthen our national security. Bill @Pulte is a relentless fighter for the truth, a political outsider with a fresh perspective we desperately need more of in Washington. I have complete confidence in President Trump’s selection of him as the next Director of National Intelligence.”

Rep. Darrell Issa: “Congratulations to @pulte on his appointment by @realDonaldTrump as the new Acting Director of National Intelligence. Bill has successfully managed some of the most sensitive American data, as well as more than $10 trillion in assets at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. This is the right man at the right time for this critical post.”

Rep. Ronny Jackson: “CONGRATULATIONS to our next Acting Director of National Intelligence, Bill Pulte! As a member of @HouseIntel, I look forward to working with him to support President Trump’s agenda and ensure our intelligence agencies are equipped to confront the growing threats facing our nation!”

Rep. Nick Langworthy: “Congratulations to Bill Pulte on his appointment as Acting Director of National Intelligence. At a time when threats to our nation are growing more complex, strong leadership matters. I am confident Bill will serve with integrity, focus, and an unwavering commitment to protecting the American people.”

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna: “Bill Pulte will be a great ODNI! Go Bill – Go!”

Rep. Lloyd Smucker: “Congratulations to @pulte on your appointment as Acting Director of National Intelligence! Grateful for your service as you take on this key role helping President Trump and his administration protect our nation.”

Rep. Marlin Stutzman: “Bill Pulte is a smart person and a fantastic businessman. I appreciate President Trump’s confidence in naming him intel chief!”

Rep. Claudia Tenney: “Congratulations to @pulte on his appointment as Acting Director of National Intelligence. Director Pulte has managed some of the most sensitive issues in our economy and has a proven record of leadership. As a former bank attorney & member of @HouseIntel, I look forward to working with him.”

(White House Press Release, 6/4/2026)

@MarkWarner is afraid that @pulte will do what Warner and his crew has been doing for decades: interfere in US elections.

This is classic narrative seeding. The democrat plan is to launch an operation that creates threats during or on elections. The propaganda they will deploy in response to that operation will be ‘close down elections, seize polling stations’ and they will point back to this interview as SEE I TOLD YOU THAT IS WHAT THEY WERE GOING TO DO.

Newsflash, the DNI does even actually PRODUCE intelligence. They aggregate intelligence produced elsewhere. Oh, and just for giggles, the CIA does[n’t] collect intelligence either…THEY PRODUCE intelligence to justify a plan of action they’ve already decided will occur. The DNI and current CIA director just confirmed that was the case on multiple occasions.

PS, if you review the declassified CIA documents, it reveals a pattern of them doing exactly that since 1948.

June 4, 2026 – DOJ drops superseding indictment against SPLC; new details about fake bank accounts and payrolls

(Credit: Southern Poverty Law Center)

(…) The new charges expand on the original April 2026 indictment The Gateway Pundit reported, adding explosive details about how the SPLC allegedly used fictitious bank accounts and fake payrolls to funnel approximately $4.1 million in tax-exempt donor funds straight to leaders and organizers of violent extremist groups — including the Ku Klux Klan, Aryan Nations, National Alliance, and others.

According to the superseding indictment, the SPLC’s stated mission was to “dismantle white supremacy.” Instead, prosecutors say, the organization secretly paid high-level extremists to recruit new members, host rallies, purchase materials for cross burnings and KKK robes, publish racist literature, and even plan the deadly 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville.

First Assistant U.S. Attorney Kevin Davidson put it bluntly in the charging document:

“The Southern Poverty Law Center’s stated mission included the dismantling of white supremacy and confronting hate across the country. However, unbeknownst to donors, some of their donated money was being used to fund the leaders and organizers of racist groups, including the Ku Klux Klan, the Aryan Nations, and the National Alliance.”

The superseding indictment lays out a years-long scheme involving multiple “field sources” (Fs) paid through a web of fake companies like Center Investigative Agency (CIA), Rare Books Warehouse, Tech Writers Group, and others. These entities had no real employees or business — they existed solely to launder donor money to extremists.

Among the most damning allegations:

  • F-9 received over $1.2 million in donor funds. While on the SPLC payroll, this informant infiltrated the neo-Nazi National Alliance, raised money for the group, and even stole documents from an extremist headquarters. An SPLC employee (Employee-2) allegedly used the stolen material for a Hatewatch story — then paid another informant $6,000 to falsely take the blame. Employee-2 was reportedly in a romantic relationship with F-9, shared a house and joint bank accounts, and funneled donor cash that made up 66% of all deposits into their personal accounts.
  • F-37 — a member of the online leadership chat group that helped plan the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville (where a woman and two law enforcement officers were killed) — received over $300,000. The SPLC directed this informant to attend the event and arrange transportation for others. The SPLC then heavily covered the tragedy on its platforms and saw a massive fundraising windfall. The indictment notes the SPLC “more than doubled their previous year’s reported revenue” after Charlottesville — while hiding from donors that they had paid one of the planners.
  • F-30, a leader in the National Socialist Party of America, KKK member, and Aryan Nations faction leader with chapters in 17 states, was paid over $70,000 to stay in the movement and keep recruiting. He even asked the SPLC to soften the language on his “Extremist File” webpage so it wouldn’t scare off new recruits — and an SPLC employee allegedly agreed and changed it.
  • F-31 and F-32, KKK members who wanted out of the movement, were instead paid $1,200 monthly salaries plus expenses to stay in and recruit. They were told to claim they worked for the fake “Rare Books” company doing research for college students — a complete lie. Donor money reimbursed them for cross-burning supplies (wood and fuel).
  • F-27 (National Socialist Movement officer and Aryan Nations-linked Sadistic Souls Motorcycle Club) received over $350,000.
  • F-42, former chairman of the National Alliance, got over $155,000.
  • Multiple other Fs were paid to attend rallies, create racist paraphernalia for sale, and publish extremist literature — all while the SPLC told donors their money was fighting these exact activities.

To hide the scheme, SPLC employees (including future CFO-level figures) opened accounts at FDIC-insured banks in the names of completely fictitious entities. They submitted false “Sole Proprietorship Resolution of Authority” documents claiming to own these fake companies. When Bank-1 started asking questions in 2020, the SPLC’s own President/CEO and Board Chair wrote a letter admitting the accounts were operated “under the Center’s authority.”

After the accounts were shut down, the SPLC switched to masked ACH payments under names like “RAREBOOKS050” and “IPRESEARCHCON050” to continue paying the Fs.

Former national security adviser John Bolton will plead guilty to mishandling classified information while working in President Trump’s first administration, CNN reported Thursday.

Bolton, 77, was indicted in October 2025 on 18 counts of illegally hoarding or sending sensitive information. The charges largely revolved around his best-selling 2020 tell-all “The Room Where It Happened,” in which Bolton gave readers a behind-the-scenes look at his time in the White House.

Reps for Bolton and the Justice Department did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

A hearing is scheduled for June 26 in Greenbelt, Md., federal court.

A blast from the past that didn’t work out too well:

June 5, 2026 – Patel fires five FBI employees tied to anti-Catholic FBI memo

Five FBI employees tied to the bureau’s 2023 “Radical Traditionalist Catholics” memo were fired Friday, according to multiple reports. The four intelligence analysts and one supervisory analyst involved in drafting and approving the document had faced no discipline since the memo became public more than three years ago.

The news was first reported by Daily Wire reporter Mary Margaret Olohan, who said an FBI source confirmed the dismissals.

The Richmond Field Office produced the memo in January 2023. It examined what it described as a possible connection between “Radical Traditionalist Catholic” ideology and racially and ethnically motivated violent extremists, and discussed potential “tripwire and source development” opportunities within Catholic communities.

The document became public after a whistleblower provided it to Congress, triggering immediate backlash from lawmakers, religious liberty advocates, and Catholic organizations. Republicans argued the memo showed the FBI was scrutinizing Americans based on their religious beliefs.

Then-Attorney General Merrick Garland later told lawmakers he was “appalled” by the memo, while Wray repeatedly insisted the memo came from a single field office and was withdrawn once senior leadership saw it.

June 5, 2026 – Trump erupts and storms off the set of his interview with NBC’s Kristen Welker

The interview aired during Sunday’s episode of Meet the Press.

After Welker repeatedly accused Trump of making claims with “no evidence,” Trump had enough and lashed out, saying, “Your elections are crooked, and you’re crooked, and meet the press is crooked, and so is ABC and CBS and CNN.”

“You’re one-sided, crooked networks. Let’s call it quits because I’ve had enough,” Trump continued as he pulled the microphone off his jacket and tossed it on the ground, making a thud.

Trump then stood up and squashed the microphone with his foot as he walked away, making it crunch. It did not appear to be intentional, but the moment was hilariously emblematic of the entire exchange.

WATCH:

(…) “I love the idea,” he said of his $1.8 billion anti-weaponization fund, adding, “because people like you, the fake dirty press, the crooked press, people like Stupid Biden—he’s not smart enough to know what’s going on, but people that surrounded him, surrounded his beautiful, resolute desk in the Oval Office— what they did to the lives of people, they destroyed people, they sent people to jail who did nothing wrong!”

And as Welker tried to defend California’s vote counting process, claiming “that’s how they vote in California,” Trump fired back, “Do you think it’s appropriate that they have an election, and five days later, they’re nowhere close to picking a winner?… You’re either crooked or you’re stupid!”

June 5, 2026 – Judicial Watch: New FOIA docs reveal Thomas Crooks’ emails with Butler County deputy

Judicial Watch announced today that it forced the release of 48 heavily redacted pages from the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit revealing that a Butler County Sheriff’s deputy exchanged emails with would-be Trump assassin Thomas Crooks prior to the July 13, 2024, shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania. The records also indicate that a Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) officer recovered a “gray remote device” with an antenna from Crooks’ pocket after he was killed.

The records also show that a medic with the Beaver County Emergency Services Unit told the FBI that she was on the roof of the American Glass Research (AGR) building examining Crooks’s body when she was informed that a police canine had “hit” on the building and she was told to evacuate the roof where Crooks’s body remained.

Judicial Watch filed the July 2025 lawsuit after the FBI failed to respond to a July 2024 FOIA request for all records related to Crooks and the assassination attempt on then-presidential candidate Donald Trump. The request included investigative files, interview summaries, reports, communications, media, and database records, as well as any FBI communications—across all formats—between FBI personnel, sources, contractors, or assets and Crooks himself (Judicial Watch Inc. v. U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:25-cv-02216)).

A heavily redacted July 17, 2024, FBI electronic communication titled “Disc of 5 Deputies of the Butler County Sheriff’s Office that were conducted on 07/16/2024” summarizes interviews conducted with deputies from the Butler County Sheriff’s Office. One deputy revealed that she had exchanged two emails with Crooks. Further information about the nature of those emails was redacted:

On 7/16/2024, TFO [task force officer] [redacted] of the FBI TOC-West [transnational organized crime] Task Force and Trooper [redacted] of the Pa State Police conducted interviews …

***

On Wednesday, July 17, 2024, Special Agent (SA) [redacted] telephonically interviewed [redacted] … After being advised the identity of the interviewing agent and the nature of the interview, (redacted) provided the following:

(Redacted) advised she [redacted] Thomas Crooks (CROOKS) in the [redacted] was an [redacted] therefore [redacted] with CROOKS. [Redacted] advised she did not recognize CROOKS when everything was on the news over the weekend but on Sunday night, a New York Times reporter emailed her asking questions.

(Redacted] advised she checked her emails and records and only had two email communications from CROOKS and both emails were in regard to [redacted].

(Redacted) advised she did not have any personal interaction with CROOKS [redacted].

In a July 17, 2024, FD-302 interview summary a Beaver County Emergency Services Unit (ESU) first responder told the FBI that she observed a SWAT officer recover a remote device and a cell phone from Crooks’ pocket. The first responder also states that she was called to the roof of the American Glass Research (AGR) building where she examined Crooks and pronounced him deceased:

(Redacted) confirmed she was present at the Butler County fairgrounds for the Trump rally. Her responsibilities included providing medical backup for the ESU [Emergency Services Unit] team or any police response. She arrived at the fairgrounds at 9:00am and was positioned at the spectator screening area.

***

(Redacted) reported that the Beaver County ESU [Emergency Services Unit] team were provided two Butler County radios to monitor two different channels during the event, one was patrol. Beaver County ESU [Emergency Services Unit] commander [redacted] was notified to move, so the team prepared to move. During that time, [redacted] advised that the team was also aware of reporting from their sniper element of a questionable subject in the area that could not be located.

(Redacted) was in the Beavery County ESU [Emergency Services Unit] vehicle, a Bearcat, with rest of team. The vehicle, driven by [redacted] initially stopped at the command post and moved towards the first victim. The bearcat was moved between the victim and crowd. The Butler County medic, named [redacted] was first to victim. [Redacted] reported there were three health care providers with the victim, so [redacted] did not move to provide support. She then looked for others that may need medical assistance.

(Redacted) did not have access to Butler County radios and only had access to a Beaver County radio. She did not remember who told her, but there were reports for medical assistance needed at the AGR [American Glass Research] facility. She coordinated with [redacted] to request operator support to travel from stage area to the facility. She traveled with [redacted] and [redacted]. The went through a small space between a fence that separated the fairgrounds and AGR [American Glass Research] facility. She was advised that there may have been multiple operators down, a potential shootout and that the shooter was down. She encountered a uniformed officer and was told that support was needed on the roof. She utilized a black collapsible ladder to get onto the roof of the AGR [American Glass Research ] facility.

At 1823 [6:23 p.m.] [redacted] arrived on roof and did not see any officers down. She was told by others on the roof to evaluate the shooter. She observed that the shooter had injuries not sustainable for life. She checked the shooters pulse on the carotid on the right side and did not find one. She pronounced him dead at 1825 [6:25 p.m.].

(Redacted) observed the shooter laying prone, face-down and handcuffed with flex-cuffs. The rifle was off to the shooters left. There were medical supplies near the shooter, but it did not belong to her. There were two Butler County SWAT officers, one Washington County SWAT officer and a uniformed Butler County officer on the roof with her. The Washington County SWAT officer checked the shooter’s right pocket and discovered a gray remote device with numerical push buttons and an antenna and a cell phone.

(Redacted) recalls that EOD [explosive ordnance disposal] showed up on the roof to look the gray remote device. She remembers being told that a canine hit on the building beneath them and were told to evacuate the roof. The shooters body remained on the roof.

(Redacted) does not know when the shooter’s body was moved from the roof. She was provided a body bag by Butler County EMS and later provided this bag to an individual from FBI or US Secret Service. She does not recall which agency.

(Redacted) does not recall the time she left the scene, but it was after 1:00am on July 14, 2024. She participated in a debrief with the Butler County ESU team on July 15, 2024.

(Redacted) did not attend the operations briefing at 0900. She believed that Butler County coordinated with Allegheny Health Network to have a physician on site and a medical tent on site. She does not know who was in charge of the medical response for the event.

“Our federal lawsuit continues to force the release of new information from the assassination attempt at the Butler rally,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “The American people deserve full transparency about Thomas Crooks, his contacts, and why key details about this case remain hidden nearly a year later.”

In May 2026, Judicial Watch received, in response to a court order, an audio recording of a 911 call placed by the father of Thomas Crooks, who is alleged to have attempted to assassinate then-presidential candidate Donald J. Trump at approximately 6:11 p.m. during a campaign rally in Butler, PA, on July 13, 2024.

In February 2026, a separate Judicial Watch lawsuit forced the release of the first FBI records about the Butler assassination attempt, revealing that law enforcement personnel broadcast radio warnings about an “unknown male acting suspiciously” prior to the shooting.

In April 2026, Judicial Watch sued U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for records related to an August 31, 2025, incident in which a club member allegedly carried a loaded semi-automatic handgun past Secret Service screening checkpoints at Trump National Golf Club in Virginia while President Donald Trump was on site.

In April 2026, Judicial Watch’s FOIA lawsuit forced the release of records from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) that show that Crooks was reportedly involved in an altercation with a group of people and making “hateful comments” directed at President Trump at the Butler, PA.

In December 2025, Judicial Watch sued the U.S. Secret Service for communications records related to Code Pink protesters who disrupted a dinner held by President Trump at a restaurant in Washington, DC, on September 9, 2025 (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Homeland Security (No. 1:25-cv-04408)).

In September 2025, Judicial Watch filed a FOIA lawsuit for messages among top leaders of the FBI referencing social media posts of Special Agent Jeffrey Veltri, head of the Miami Field Office, which is investigating the September 15 assassination attempt against Donald Trump (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:24-cv-02740)).

In March 2025, Judicial Watch sued the Homeland Security for records related to security provided for the July 13, 2024, rally in Butler, PA (Judicial Watch Inc. v. U.S. Department of Homeland Security (No. 1:25-cv-00704)).

In August 2024, Judicial Watch uncovered documents from the district attorney’s office in Butler County, PA, detailing the extensive preparation of local police for the rally at which former President Trump was shot. The preparation included sniper teams, counter assault teams and a quick response force.

In August 2024, in response to a separate open records request, Judicial Watch obtained bodycam footage of the July 13 assassination events from the Butler Township Police Department.

In August 2024, following up on reports that the Biden Secret Service denied Trump’s requests for additional Secret Service protection, Judicial Watch filed a FOIA lawsuit for Secret Service and other records regarding potential increased protective services to Trump’s security detail prior to the attempt on his life at his July 13 campaign rally (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Homeland Security (No. 1:24-cv-02495)).

(Juducial Watch, 6/5/2026) (Archive)

UPDATE 6/7/2026

So I just read through this thing and it appears Judicial Watch dropped the Ball and owes this FBI an apology … bigly

This FD-302 form page is what Judicial Watch used to claim that Thomas Crooks emailed local law enforcement before the assassination attempt.

In it, a college instructor (someone who taught or oversaw Crooks in an academic program) is being interviewed by the FBI.

The instructor mentions they only had two email exchanges with Crooks — and both were about normal course work (syllabus stuff, assignments, etc.).

There is zero mention of any police officer, deputy, sheriff’s office, or law enforcement contact in that interview.

Judicial Watch had also included a separate cover sheet in the same file that listed “interviews of 5 Deputies” from Butler County — but that sheet is just paperwork. It doesn’t contain any emails or quotes from Crooks at all.

Basically, because everything was blacked out with privacy redactions, Judicial Watch (and a lot of people who read the headline) assumed the person emailing Crooks was a deputy. They weren’t. It was just a college instructor talking about class stuff.

Basically, Judicial Watch turned a boring, routine interview with one of Crooks’ college instructors into a dramatic “he emailed the cops!” fake headline.

The FBI in this case is correct.

June 5, 2026 – Meet the Democratic Socialists of America champagne duo who groomed rich kid Graham Platner into a ‘working-class’ candidate

If you believe Democrats and the media, you probably think that Graham Platner of Maine is a genuine, blue-collar, oyster fisherman who decided to run for U.S. Senate and has run a grassroots campaign.

That is not the truth. His entire candidacy is based on a lie.

Graham Platner was recruited to run for office by a young, wealthy couple who are members of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), and this is what they do. They have recruited and groomed candidates in the past in the same exact way.

Daniel Moraff and Leanne Fan (Credit: @danielezramoraff/Instagram)

When they first approached Graham Platner, he didn’t even want to do it. They had to convince him.

The New York Post reports:

Meet the champagne socialist duo who groomed rich kid Graham Platner into a ‘working-class’ candidate

Graham Platner has done a better job of hiding his privileged roots than the Nazi tattoo on his chest — a move which is by design.

The embattled Maine candidate for US Senate is vocal about his disabled-war-veteran, rugged-oyster-farmer, “working-class” persona — and less so about his attendance at an $80,000-a-year boarding school, his lawyer father, or his major architect grandfather.

That’s because he’s been coached on how to present himself, molded to present a specific image — and, in a sense, manufactured.

The truth is he was discovered and coached by a pair of Ivy League-educated radical Democratic socialists, replicating a playbook they’ve used in Nebraska and Iowa. That revelation could be more damaging than the tattoo, sexting women other than his wife, blasting fellow veterans and admitting to masturbating in a port-a-potty, as it strikes at the heart of Platner’s alleged authenticity…

That under-the-radar team are a couple, Yale Law School grad Daniel Moraff and his fiancée, Leanne Fan, an academic with stints at Harvard and the proudly radical University of California-Berkeley.

The pair had originally met while working for Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) in 2020 and are hardcore members of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). They have previously been behind candidates Dan Osborn, running for Senate in Nebraska, and Rep. Summer Lee (D-Pa.), a member of the Keystone State congressional delegation since 2023 and part of the DSA “Squad,” alongside Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.).

Platner actually admitted this to Jon Stewart during an interview in April.

UPDATE 6/9/2026:

June 5, 2026 – Small Business Administration chief Kelly Loeffler reports there were $200 billion in fraudulent PPP loans distributed by Biden admin

HOLY SMOKES. Trump SBA chief Kelly Loeffler exposes in the Cabinet room she found $200 BILLION in FRAUDULENT PPP loans distributed by the Biden admin…

…and they tried COVERING IT UP. People are now going to jail 🔥

“Think about at the SBA, we found $200 billion in fraudulent PPP loans that the Biden administration tried to hide and forgive and sweep under the rug.”

“We’ve turned the first $22 billion of that over to Treasury for collections and to DOJ for prosecution.”

“Our inspector general is already announcing that people are going to jail. There are jail sentences now being served.”

“We’ve announced that 140,000 people have been barred from ever getting SBA loans again defrauding the government for about $9 billion.”

“So we are going to continue our work under the great leadership of Vice President Vance and appreciate the partnership because it’s really accelerated our ability to get the job done.” 🇺🇸

U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) Administrator Kelly Loeffler has publicly detailed a sweeping crackdown on suspected fraud in pandemic-era relief programs, focusing on the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) programs.

According to Loeffler, the SBA has identified an estimated $200 billion in fraudulent PPP and EIDL loans that were meant to support small businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic Just The News. She said that $22 billion of these fraudulent loans have already been referred to the U.S. Treasury and Department of Justice for collections and prosecution, with some individuals convicted and serving prison sentences Just The News.

Enforcement Actions

  • Ohio Crackdown: In June 2026, the SBA suspended 27,486 Ohio borrowers linked to about $1.1 billion in suspected fraudulent PPP and EIDL activity. Four alleged Ohio-based fraudsters tied to over $1.4 million in fraud were indicted Markets Insider.
  • California Crackdown: Earlier in 2026, the SBA suspended 111,620 California borrowers tied to $8.6 billion in suspected fraud Small Business Administration.
  • Minnesota Crackdown: The agency also suspended 6,900 Minnesota borrowers for loans totaling roughly $400 million The Free Press – Tampa.
  • National Scale: These actions are part of a state-by-state effort, with over 560,000 suspected fraudulent borrowers referred to the DOJ in the largest fraud enforcement package in SBA history Markets Insider+1.

Loeffler’s Message

Loeffler has warned that “if you defraud federal programs at any level, we will find you” and emphasized that suspended borrowers lose access to all SBA loan programs and federal contracting opportunities Markets Insider. She has also criticized past administrations for allegedly tolerating fraud, calling for accountability and recovery of taxpayer funds Just The News+1.

Legal and Financial Impact

Prosecutions have included high-profile cases such as:

  • Jaimeka Michelle Austin (VA) – PPP/EIDL nearly $2M, sentenced to 8 years www.lolsba.com.
  • Sharhabeel Shreiteh (IL) – PPP $14M, sentenced to 10 years www.lolsba.com.
  • Stephanie Hockridge (TX) – PPP over $63M, sentenced to 10 years www.lolsba.com.

These cases illustrate the range of penalties, from probation to decades in prison, for those convicted of PPP/EIDL fraud.

In summary: Loeffler’s reports frame the SBA’s actions as a major effort to recover billions in misused pandemic relief funds, with hundreds of thousands of borrowers suspended and thousands prosecuted across multiple states

June 5, 2026 – $29 billion in taxpayer cash: EPA Chief Zeldin drops criminal referrals to DOJ for green energy heist

Obama-Biden Cronies CAUGHT Stealing $29 BILLION in Taxpayer Cash: EPA Chief Zeldin Drops Criminal Referrals to DOJ for Massive Green Energy Heist

John Solomon says EPA Chief Lee Zeldin just informed him that Obama and Biden administration officials ran a massive self-dealing scam — funneling $29 BILLION in green energy grants to their buddies. Former Cabinet secretaries, big Democrat donors, political activists — including a Stacey Abrams-linked group that got $2 BILLION despite almost zero revenue.

Zeldin blocked the money, uncovered the pass-through nonprofits used to launder it to insiders, and has now made several criminal referrals to the DOJ.

Read that again.. a $29 BILLION dollar heist, planned by Barrack Hussein Obama.

June 5, 2026 – Mar-a-Lago was raided for an Intel Community report claiming there was no evidence Trump colluded with Russia; Hillary could be blackmailed

Devin Nunes is back in play:

They raided Mar-A-Lago because they were desperately trying to find this Intelligence Community Report

“Nobody thought Trump was going to win” — and Obama’s own IC stated there was no Evidence whatsoever that Trump colluded with Russia— and in fact, the IC concluded that Russia wanted Hillary Clinton to win because they had BLACKMAIL on her

John Solomon reveals that fresh documents “Just Discovered” inside the FBI contain evidence pertaining to Barrack Hussein Obama that is about to become public:

“I think there will be a need to summon [Obama] based on some of the evidence that’s about to become public.”

BUT… “he can’t be indicted most likely, but that means he cannot claim the 5th amendment either— keep an eye on that”

I told you, “Burn Bags” were the perfect delivery vehicle to “find” whatever they want, whenever they want. Everything is timed for release.

June 5, 2026 – Georgia Rep. Clay Fuller introduces article of impeachment against federal judge for sexual misconduct

I am dropping an article of impeachment against Eleanor L. Ross, a Judge of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. I have been working on this alongside @repjimjordan since the news broke and will be introducing this on Monday.

Judge Ross is alleged to have engaged in an extramarital affair with a high-ranking official of the Atlanta Police Department inside her federal courthouse chambers during office hours, within earshot of her judicial staff, while actively presiding over criminal cases.

This radical judge has no place in power and is unfit to sit on the federal bench.

June 6, 2026 – India H-1B Visa fraud ring busted: Up to 90% of applications from India contained fraudulent information

The long-running concerns about abuse of America’s H-1B visa program are exploding back into the spotlight after a series of fraud investigations, criminal guilty pleas, and shocking allegations from a former U.S. diplomat who claims that as many as 80% to 90% of H-1B visa applications from India contained fraudulent information or involved unqualified applicants.

The revelations come as federal and state authorities ramp up investigations into alleged visa fraud schemes that critics say have displaced American workers while enriching a network of foreign recruiting firms, shell companies, and immigration middlemen.

Mahvash Siddiqui (Credit: The Times of India)

Former U.S. Foreign Service Officer Mahvash Siddiqui, who served at the U.S. consulate in Chennai, India, told Newsweek that many applicants submitted fake degrees, forged documents, or otherwise failed to meet the qualifications required for the highly coveted visa program.

Siddiqui described the problem as “industrialized fraud” during a recent interview discussing her experience adjudicating tens of thousands of visa applications.

“I would say 80 to 90 percent of the people that I encountered in each of the visa categories, especially the young people between the ages of 20 to 45 that had very few ties to India, were basically using the non-immigrant visa pipeline to essentially come and work in the United States and never go back home and essentially displace American workers,” Siddiqui stated.

She added that fraud is normalized in India in the same way bribery is normalized there.

In April, federal prosecutors announced that two California men pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit H-1B visa fraud after submitting petitions for jobs that did not actually exist at the University of California.

Prosecutors said the defendants used fraudulent job offers to obtain visa approvals and then reassigned workers elsewhere after the visas were issued.

Federal investigators concluded that the applications contained false information and that the workers were not employed in the positions described in the visa petitions. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 6/6/2026)  (Archive)

June 6, 2026 – New accusations against Graham Platner expose the hypocrisy of Democrats

Democrat Graham Platner, who is running for Senate in Maine and would face Sen. Susan Collins if he wins the upcoming primary, is facing new allegations. The New York Times reports some women who previously dated Platner say they saw disturbing behavior. Platner denies the allegations.

Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner is facing new allegations this morning. The New York Times spoke with several of Platner’s ex-girlfriends, some of whom claim the Maine politician was “volatile and toxic” during their time together. The Times also spoke with several other former girlfriends who gave a different account of Platner, calling him a “gentle giant.” Platner has acknowledged a troubled past but denied any claims of physical violence. MS NOW congressional reporter Kevin Frey talked to voters in Maine about the latest controversy.

Greg Gutfeld unloads on Democrats during The Five as new allegations surrounding Graham Platner spark controversy and raise questions about political double standards. After many Democrats recently distanced themselves from Eric Swalwell over similar accusations, Gutfeld argues that their response to the Platner story exposes a glaring inconsistency. In this heated discussion, Gutfeld examines why some political figures are quickly condemned while others appear to receive protection from the same critics. The panel debates media coverage, partisan loyalty, accountability, and whether Democrats are applying different standards depending on who is involved. Watch as Greg Gutfeld breaks down the controversy, challenges the media narrative, and highlights what he sees as another example of political hypocrisy in Washington.

@cnnDemocratic voters in Maine are grappling with new allegations against Senate candidate Graham Platner while debating whether he remains their strongest contender against Republican Senator Susan Collins in the 2026 Senate race. CNN’s Danny Freeman reports.

JAMES CARVILLE ADMITTED THE DEMOCRAT DOUBLE STANDARD ON LIVE TV: NAZI TATTOO IS FINE IF YOU’RE THEIR GUY!
Jake Tapper pressed James Carville on CNN about Graham Platner, the Maine Democrat running for Senate with the Nazi SS Totenkopf tattoo on his chest.
Tapper: “What would you say to a Republican who says if a Republican combat veteran had a Nazi tattoo, you wouldn’t be so forgiving?”
Carville: “It’s true. I would say you’re exactly right.”
Carville then added that if it were a Republican, he’d never vote for him, but quickly pivoted to claiming the real danger to America is President Trump.

 

June 7, 2026 – TN Republican congressional candidate Charlotte Bergmann discusses Elon Musk, the SPLC indictments, and Democrats in general

In this interview, congressional candidate Charlotte Bergmann joins the discussion as new allegations surrounding the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) generate controversy across the political landscape. The debate intensified after Elon Musk highlighted reports claiming the Department of Justice is investigating the SPLC over allegations involving payments connected to individuals within extremist organizations. Critics argue the claims raise serious questions about whether organizations that publicly position themselves as fighting hate may have been involved in activities that fueled division and conflict. Supporters of the SPLC strongly dispute such characterizations, making the issue a flashpoint in the broader political battle over race, activism, and public trust.

The conversation also explores media coverage of the controversy, including criticism of how major outlets have framed the allegations and whether political bias influences which stories receive scrutiny and which do not. Bergmann discusses what she sees as a double standard in how conservative and progressive organizations are treated by the media and political establishment.

Attention then turns to Tennessee’s 9th Congressional District, a district frequently discussed in racial and political terms due to its demographics and history. Bergmann addresses why Democrats have often referred to it as a key majority-Black district, the ongoing legal disputes surrounding congressional maps, and why she believes voters should be viewed as individuals rather than voting blocs defined by race.

As a longtime Memphis resident and business owner, Bergmann also discusses crime, public safety, border security, and the impact federal policies have had on local communities. She explains why she decided to enter politics after years in the private sector and what she hopes to accomplish if elected.

The interview ultimately focuses on government accountability, equal treatment under the law, election integrity, economic opportunity, and the future direction of both Tennessee and the nation.

June 8, 2026 – Justice Department moves to strip U.S. citizenship from 17 naturalized sex offenders, fraudsters, drug dealers, and more

DOJ Logo

The Department of Justice announced today that it filed denaturalization actions in various U.S. district courts against 17 individuals accused of serious offenses—including sexual abuse of a minor, wire and bank fraud, and distributing drugs wholesale without a license.

Under the Immigration and Nationality Act, a naturalized U.S. citizen’s citizenship may be revoked, and certificate of naturalization canceled, if the naturalization was illegally procured or procured by concealment of a material fact or by willful misrepresentation.

“When criminal aliens exploit the naturalization process by breaking the law, there are consequences. Criminal aliens are lying about their past crimes, including drug dealers, sexual predators, and fraudsters. Gaining U.S. citizenship is a privilege and under the steadfast leadership of President Trump, this Department of Justice maintains a zero-tolerance policy for the abuse of this process,” said Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. “We continue to work around the clock with our interagency partners to make sure U.S. citizenship is granted to those who truly deserve it.”

“American citizenship is a privilege, and it must be earned honestly. If you come here break our laws, and lie in your immigration proceedings, you forfeit that privilege,” said DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin. “DHS will not stand idly by while Americans are harmed by criminals including sex offenders, perpetrators of fraud, and drug traffickers who have exploited our generosity and gamed our immigration system. We will continue to use every lawful avenue to denaturalize and remove aliens.”

“We will not turn a blind eye to those who unlawfully obtained U.S. citizenship,” Assistant Attorney General Brett A. Shumate of the Justice Department’s Civil Division. “Anyone thinking they can defraud the naturalization process should think again. We will continue to pursue anyone who unlawfully or fraudulently obtained U.S. citizenship.”

  1. Leidys Delmas Garcia (Age 54/Cuba): Delmas Garcia is a native of Cuba who was convicted of conspiracy to commit health care fraud.  The U.S. seeks an order revoking Delmas Garcia’s naturalization based on her admission in criminal proceedings that she and her co-conspirators established and operated 30 physical therapy clinics in Florida that fraudulently billed commercial insurance provider Blue Cross, Blue Shield approximately $36,728,595 for physical therapy services that were not medically necessary and/or never provided.  During her naturalization interview, Delmas Garcia represented under penalty of perjury that she had not committed crimes for which she had not been arrested and that she had never given false or misleading information to any U.S. government official while applying for any immigration benefit.  Neither was true.
  2. Jean Claude Alfred (Age 68/Haiti): The United States filed a denaturalization action against Jean Claude Alfred, a native of Haiti who naturalized as a U.S. citizen in 1994. Beginning in September 1993, approximately one month before filing his naturalization application, Alfred repeatedly sexually abused his minor daughter and continued that conduct during the pendency of his naturalization proceedings. During the naturalization process, Alfred represented in his application and under oath that he had not committed any crime for which he had not been arrested and concealed his ongoing criminal conduct. In 1996, a Florida jury convicted Alfred of attempted sexual battery upon a child in a familial or custodial relationship and lewd, lascivious, and indecent assault upon a child under the age of 16 for Alfred’s criminal conduct that began in September 1993, before he naturalized. The denaturalization complaint alleges that Alfred illegally procured his citizenship because he provided false testimony which prevented him from establishing good moral character required for naturalization. The complaint further alleges that Alfred obtained citizenship through the concealment and willful misrepresentation of material facts concerning his sexual abuse of a minor.
  3. Andrea Marroquin (Age 44/Colombia): Marroquin is the daughter of a major Colombian drug trafficker who inherited his money when he died. She obtained permanent residence in the United States by concealing her bigamous marriage to a United States citizen. Between 2003 and 2011, she conspired to engage in wire and bank fraud and money laundering, using her late father’s drug money to finance fraudulent real estate transactions in Miami, Florida. She became a naturalized citizen in 2009 by concealing her crimes. The United States has brought four claims against Marroquin seeking her denaturalization, including claims she knowingly lied to immigration authorities and lacked the good moral character to become a U.S. citizen.
  4. Maria Lourdes Montoya (Age 63/Mexico): On June 4, 2026, the United States brought a denaturalization action against Maria Lourdes Montoya, who misrepresented her husband’s identify to secure permanent residence and later citizenship. In support of both her application for permanent residence and naturalization, Montoya represented herself to be the spouse of a U.S. Citizen—Gilberto Montoya. But Montya was never married to Gilberto Montoya, who died decades earlier. Instead, Montoya was marred to Ernesto Orozco-Viramontes, a Mexican national who had assumed the identity of Gilberto. Montoya was aware of her husband’s deception and leveraged it to obtain immigration benefits, including naturalized citizenship. The United States filed a five-count complaint against Montoya seeking to cancel her naturalized citizenship.
  5. Tahir Lekaj (Age 43/Yugoslavia): Lekaj was admitted to the United States in August 1999 and subsequently obtained permanent residence.  When he applied to naturalize in 2004, Mr. Lekaj wrote in his application that he had never committed a crime for which he had not been arrested.  He later repeated that claim orally and under oath during his naturalization interview.  His application was approved, and he naturalized in May 2005.  However, in 2022, the State of Connecticut convicted Mr. Lekaj of two counts of sexually abusing a child under the age of 15 in January 2003.  Evidence at trial indicated that the victim was 10 years old when the abuse began.  The United States filed a complaint seeking to revoke Mr. Lekaj’s citizenship because he illegally procured his citizenship because he was unable to demonstrate the good moral character required of naturalization because of the sexual abuse.  Additionally, Mr. Lekaj is subject to denaturalization because he willfully misrepresented or concealed the sexual abuse while seeking United States citizenship.
  6. Talman Harris (Age 49/Jamaica): Over an eight-year period, including during his 2012-2014 naturalization proceedings, Talman Harris, a native of Jamaica, conspired to manipulate the price and volume of shares of stock in publicly traded companies, causing more than $54 million to be invested in artificially controlled shares and an ultimate loss to investors of approximately $39 million from the scheme.  In 2016, after Harris naturalized, a jury found him guilty of wire fraud and conspiring to commit securities fraud and wire fraud, with his fraudulent wire transfers and the conspiracy occurring during the period in which Harris was statutorily required to demonstrate good moral character to naturalize.  The denaturalization complaint against Harris alleges that, during the period in which he was statutorily required to demonstrate good moral character, he committed a crime involving moral turpitude, committed unlawful acts that adversely reflected on his moral character, and falsely testified about his crime.  The complaint additionally alleges that Harris willfully misrepresented the material fact of his crimes during his naturalization proceedings.
  7. Armando Mendoza (Age 39/Mexico): Before Mendoza naturalized, he began knowingly receiving sexually explicit images of minors as early as 2009.  In his 2011 naturalization application and interview, however, Mendoza, a Mexico native, claimed that he had never committed a crime or offense for which he had not been arrested.  In 2013, after he naturalized, Mendoza pled guilty to the receipt of such images.  The denaturalization complaint against Mendoza alleges that, during the period in which he was statutorily required to demonstrate good moral character, Mendoza was precluded from doing so because he had committed a crime involving moral turpitude, committed unlawful acts that adversely reflected on his moral character, and falsely testified about his crime.  Additionally, the complaint alleges that Mendoza willfully misrepresented the material fact of his crime during his naturalization proceedings.
  8. Neeraj Sharma (Age 50/India): Neeraj Sharma, a native of India, was both the owner and chief executive officer of Magnavision LLC, a staffing company located in New Jersey.  As an officer of Magnavision LLC, Sharma signed and filed eleven fraudulent H-1B visa petitions with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”).  Each petition included false representations that the visa beneficiaries would be employed with a particular global financial institution, and also included letters on official corporate letterhead with forged signatures of the executives. In 2017,  Sharma applied for naturalization, and under penalty of perjury, falsely asserted that he had never:  (a) committed a crime or offense for which he was not arrested; (b) given any U.S. Government officials any information or documentation that was false or misleading; and (c) lied to any U.S. Government official to gain immigration benefits.  Based on these material falsehoods, USCIS approved his application, and Defendant became a U.S. citizen in December 2017.  Subsequently, Defendant was convicted of Fraud and Misuse of Visas, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1546, with the date of offense between April 25, 2015, through April 27, 2017.  The United States seeks to revoke Defendant’s naturalization, pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1451(a), as an alien who illegally procured his naturalization by:  (1) failing to disclose unlawful acts; (2) providing false testimony; and (3) concealment of a material fact and willful misrepresentation.
  9. Federico Michel Fermin (Age 54/Dominican Republic): From September 2004 through August 2005, Federico Michel Fermin, a native of the Dominican Republic, conspired with others to distribute more than $1.7 million in prescription drugs wholesale without a license.  As part of the criminal conspiracy, Fermin altered drug packaging and caused it to be altered so that the prescription drugs that were distributed to pharmacies would appear to have been purchased from persons who were licensed to distribute them.  On May 12, 2011, a jury convicted Fermin of conspiracy to distribute prescription drugs wholesale without a license, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 371.  He was sentenced to 48 months imprisonment.  However, during his naturalization process, Fermin represented, under penalty of perjury, that he had never knowingly committed any crime for which he had not been arrested and testified under oath to the same at his naturalization interview.  Accordingly, Fermin illegally procured is naturalization as a United States citizen because he misrepresented and concealed facts that were material to determining his eligibility for naturalization.
  10. Abdikadir Ali Kadiye (Age 54/Somalia): On June 3, 2026, the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Attorney for the District of Minnesota filed a civil denaturalization complaint in District of Minnesota against Abdikadir Ali Kadiye. Beginning in April of 1997, Kadiye sought admission to the United States by filing applications under two separate identities. Kadiye initially sought admission to the United States under the identity Liban M. Degel and he claimed that he was married with no children. After an immigration judge denied his application for immigration benefits, Kadiye submitted a second application under the identity of Abdikadir Ali Kadiye. After his naturalization, Kadiye admitted to a customs and border patrol agent that he had previously used two identities for admission for admission.
  11. Victor San Shing Kwok (Age 50/People’s Republic of China): On June 4, 2026, the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Attorney for the District of the Northern District of Georgia filed a civil denaturalization complaint against Victor San Shing Kwon in the Northern District of Georgia. In September 1994, Kwok sought admission to the United States under the identity of Xin Cheng Guo. After an immigration judge denied his application for an immigration benefit, Kwok sought admission to the United States by marrying a U.S. citizen. In his application to adjust his resident status, Kwok failed to disclose the prior denial of his prior application for an immigration benefit and his pending order of removal. There is no record that Kwok departed the United States as ordered by the immigration judge.
  12. Louise Hunkporti (Age 64/Congo): In 1995, Hunkporti applied for and was denied an immigration benefit. When he was denied the immigration benefit, Hunkporti adopted a new identity and submitted a falsified application using the new identity. Hunkporti naturalized as a U.S. citizen on March 2, 2010 under the adopted identity. After USCIS digitized its paper fingerprint cards, the U.S. Department of Justice discovered that the fingerprints Hunkporti submitted when she naturalized matched those she submitted when she applied for the immigration benefit in 1995. The complaint alleges eight counts for her numerous misrepresentations and unlawful acts that adversely reflect her moral character.
  13. Fernando Cristancho (Age 69/Colombia): Cristancho, an ordained Roman Catholic priest, entered the United States as a religious worker and then used his leadership position in the church to gain access to minor victims. In that capacity, Mr. Cristancho sexually groomed and abused a minor parishioner from when the victim was 11 to 13 years old. Mr. Cristancho later admitted to the crime—and egregious conduct involving other minor victims—and pleaded guilty to one count of coercion and enticement in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2422(b), resulting in a 22-year prison sentence. The denaturalization complaint filed against Mr. Cristancho charges that he hid his ongoing crime from immigration officials, thereby illegally procuring his naturalization by concealing material facts and willfully misrepresenting his unlawful sexual activity and by his inability to demonstrate the requisite good moral character in support of his application. (Park/Burley)
  14. Ronnie Price (Age 40/Trinidad and Tobago): Before his naturalization in 2016, 30-year-old Ronnie Price had sexual intercourse with a female who was under 16 – a statutory rape crime to which he eventually pled guilty.  During his naturalization proceedings, however, Price claimed he had never committed a crime for which he had not been arrested, he falsely testified to the same, and he concealed facts that would have uncovered his criminal activity.  The denaturalization complaint alleges that Price engaged in unlawful conduct during a critical statutory period during which he was required by law to maintain good moral character, that he provided false testimony during his naturalization interview, and that he did so in order to conceal his crimes and willfully misrepresent material facts that would have revealed his ineligibility for the privilege of United States citizenship.
  15. Rodger George Gurdon (Age 55/Jamaica): Prior to naturalizing in 2011, Rodger George Gurdon, a native of Jamaica, engaged in a conspiracy to steal and resell medical products from military hospitals operated by the Department of Defense.  Gurdon likewise engaged in a conspiracy to distribute and possess with intent to distribute at least 100 kilograms of a substance containing marijuana.  In 2013, after he naturalized, Gurdon pled guilty to Conspiring to Steal Pre-Retail Medical Products, Interstate Receipt of Stolen Property, and Conspiring to Distribute Marijuana, with the conspiracies occurring during the period in which Gurdon was statutorily required to demonstrate good moral character to naturalize.  The denaturalization complaint against Gurdon alleges that, during the period in which he was statutorily required to demonstrate good moral character, Gurdon was precluded from doing so because he had committed unlawful acts that adversely reflected on his moral character, and falsely testified about his crimes.  Additionally, the complaint alleges that Gurdon willfully misrepresented the material fact of his crimes during his naturalization proceedings. (McManus/Bic)
  16. Jheromell Obejera Arcilla (Age 39/Philippines): On Friday, June 5, 2026, the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Attorney for the District of Maryland filed a civil denaturalization complaint in the United States District Court in Greenbelt, Maryland, against Jheromell Obejera Arcilla, a native of the Philippines who, prior to his naturalization, began sexually abusing the 15-year-old daughter of his biological cousin, with whom he lived. The sexual abuse lasted for over a year, during which time Mr. Arcilla successfully naturalized. In 2020, a grand jury indicted Mr. Arcilla on three counts of sexual offenses in violation of the Maryland criminal code, and in 2021, Mr. Arcilla pleaded guilty to one of those counts, sex abuse of a minor. Mr. Arcilla lied about the commission of this crime in connection with his naturalization application. The United States has brought three claims against Mr. Arcilla seeking his denaturalization, including claims that he lacked the good moral character to become a U.S. citizen and that he knowingly lied to immigration authorities.
  17. Milagros Marileisis Acosta Torres (Age 40/Cuba): Before Milagros Marileisis Acosta Torres naturalized, she was part of a larger conspiracy to defraud a tribal casino in Florida.  Her husband and several others stole millions of dollars from the casino by creating false credit vouchers.  Acosta Torres subsequently engaged in various financial transactions involving the criminal proceeds to disguise the fact that they were obtained though fraud and to circumvent transaction reporting requirements imposed by federal and state law.  But in her naturalization application and interview, Acosta Torres falsely claimed that she had never committed a crime or offense for which she had not been arrested.  The denaturalization complaint against Acosta Torres alleges that she is subject to denaturalization because during the period in which she was statutorily required to demonstrate good moral character, she committed unlawful acts that adversely reflected on her moral character and falsely testified about her crime.  Additionally, she willfully misrepresented the material fact of her crime during her naturalization proceedings.

These cases were prosecuted by the Justice Department’s Office of Immigration Litigation, with assistance from USCIS, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and the U.S. Attorney’s Offices for the Southern District of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Southern District of Florida, Middle District of Georgia, Northern District of Georgia, Maryland, Minnesota, Nevada, and New Jersey.

The claims made in the complaints are allegations only, and there has been no determination of liability.

June 8, 2026 – House Oversight releases report suggesting Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and AG Ellison were aware of widespread taxpayer fraud

Chairman Comer urges President Trump’s Anti-Fraud Task Force to conduct a thorough review of Minnesota’s social services program

WASHINGTON—The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform released a staff report today titled, “The Cost of Doing Nothing: How Tim Walz and Keith Ellison Fueled Minnesota’s Fraud Explosion.” The report exposes how senior Minnesota state officials, including Governor Walz and Attorney General Ellison, were aware of widespread taxpayer fraud in federally funded social programs for years, possessed the authority to stop payments and ban fraudulent providers from participating in these programs, but repeatedly failed to act. As a result, billions of American taxpayer dollars were potentially paid to fraudulent actors. The report includes testimony and documents obtained by the Committee showing that Minnesota state leaders consistently failed to address known fraud concerns and retaliated against state employees who sought to protect taxpayer funds, allowing criminal schemes to flourish and diverting critical resources from vulnerable Americans.

“Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison are responsible for one of the most stunning oversight failures this Committee has ever examined. Today’s report is the culmination of months of investigative work and reveals hard evidence showing how the Walz Administration failed to stop widespread fraud, allowing criminals to enrich themselves at the expense of American taxpayers. Billions of dollars were stolen because Minnesota state leaders turned a blind eye to rampant fraud and retaliated against state employees who dared to raise concerns. It is now clear the Walz Administration chose to protect the system rather than protect the taxpayer. Americans are fed up with fraud and expect action from the government entrusted with their hard-earned money. The House Oversight Committee has now passed over a dozen bills aimed at protecting taxpayer funds and strengthening oversight of federal programs ripe for fraud. This Committee will continue to work alongside President Trump’s anti-fraud task force to have the backs of hardworking Americans,” said House Committee on Oversight and Government Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.).

Below are some key findings from the report:

  • Governor Walz and Attorney General Ellison were aware of credible and systemic fraud in Minnesota’s social services programs as early as 2019 but failed to take action to protect taxpayer funds.
  • Minnesota state agencies had clear authority to suspend or stop payments to providers suspected of fraud without requiring independent direction from courts, law enforcement agencies, or the federal government but failed to act.
  • Minnesota officials continued directing taxpayer dollars to Feeding our Future and other high-risk entities despite identifying serious program deficiencies, enabling hundreds of millions of dollars in federal funds to flow to fraudsters.
  • Testimony and documents show that concerns about litigation and accusations of discrimination—not legal barriers or directives from law enforcement—were cited as reasons for continuing payments to suspected fraudsters.
  • The Walz Administration retaliated against state employees who raised concerns about fraud, while senior state officials prioritized managing political and media fallout over addressing known fraud vulnerabilities.
  • Failures to prevent fraud resulted in an estimated $300 million in federal child nutrition funds being lost and potentially $9 billion in Medicaid-related funds to be lost or placed at serious risk.

Based on the Committee’s findings, Chairman Comer also sent a letter to Vice President JD Vance urging the White House Task Force to Eliminate Fraud to conduct a thorough review of Minnesota’s social services programs.

This week, the House of Representatives is slated to consider ten Oversight Committee bills aimed at protecting taxpayer funds and combating rampant fraud and improper payments in federal programs. The Government Accountability Office (GAO) estimates that between $233 billion and $521 billion is lost annually due to fraud.

The Committee is also releasing transcribed interview transcripts conducted as part of its investigation into fraud in Minnesota’s social services programs:

  • Emily Honer, Director of Nutrition Program Services for MDE (2023 to Present), previously Supervisor of Business Operations and Support Services for MDE (2019-2023)

FULL HEARING: Tim Walz & Keith Ellison Grilled About Minnesota Fraud In House Oversight Committee – March 4, 2026

June 8, 2026 – Mike Pompeo confesses to ‘planning and coordinating’ with British intelligence in the midst of Spygate and Russiagate

Within hours of being announced as the nominee to be the U.S. Director of the CIA, I received a hand-delivered message on MI6 stationery congratulating me on my nomination. It was signed simply “C” in green ink. Legendary. I shared it with my son and even he thought I was now cool!

More than that, this note, from Sir Alex Younger, Chief of the Secret Intelligence Service of the United Kingdom, confirmed what I already believed: the work that the CIA and MI6 did together mattered, that the partnership was critical, and that two leaders focused on the mission could save lives and provide tools for our nations to deter our adversaries.

Alex’s passing this week brought back so many memories of our time in service together. He flew to Langley to see me the day I was confirmed. We brought our two senior teams together in the UK to plan and coordinate and build in the first several weeks of my time on duty: making clear to them all that this relationship was more than special – it was critical for the security of our two countries.

Alex was a remarkable intelligence partner. When we needed help, it wasn’t “let me see;” it was “this matters to you and America we’ll get it done.” And he and his team always did. I think he knew we would do the same for him and his team and his nation. Many Americans are alive today because of his leadership of MI6, I never knew how to thank him enough.

Alex became a friend as well. In the years since we both left office we would see each other from time to time. He was always so kind, so thoughtful, so smart. His deep love of his country was surpassed only by his deep commitment and love of his family. Decent and proper – and funny as hell – Alex was “C.” As espionage requires, he was quiet, not attention seeking. He knew what evil was and he was ruthless in his efforts to crush it with every legal tool at his command. And he knew who his friends were and committed himself to supporting them.

I miss Sir Alex Younger. He was a role model for me and a man with whom every minute I spent was valued and savored. Blessings to you Alex. Praying for you and for your family. Well done and may you rest in peace in His hands.

June 09, 2026 – January 6 prisoner Ryan Samsel’s federal lawsuit exposes the truth

“Newly released unsealed photos that the Biden administration kept in the dark above”

For years, the Biden Department of Justice kept the full story of what happened to Ryan Samsel buried. Sealed. Classified under layers of institutional protection while a compliant media constructed a narrative that served one purpose — to destroy a man who refused to lie for them. But Ryan Samsel and his legal team never stopped fighting.

They documented everything. They preserved every medical record, every nursing report, every USMS log, every court filing that captured what was truly done to this man. And on June 9, 2026, that fight produced something the Biden DOJ never wanted the American people to see.

A federal civil complaint — Samsel v. United States, Case No. 3:26-cv-00530-DJN, filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia — is now public record. The truth is no longer sealed. And it is devastating.

What the Lawsuit Reveals

From the moment Ryan Samsel refused to provide false testimony against fellow January 6 attendee Joe Biggs — testimony prosecutors demanded, testimony Ryan knew to be a lie — the machinery of the Biden DOJ turned on him with a ferocity that the complaint now formally describes as the most sustained and severe torture of any individual in recent American government custody. The United States government has not disputed that characterization. Not once.

What Ryan Samsel endured across four years, seven facilities, and hundreds of documented days of abuse is not alleged rumor or political grievance.

It is now sworn federal court record, backed by medical documentation, nursing reports, and government logs that the Biden administration hoped would never see daylight.

At DC Jail, correctional officers zip-tied his hands behind his back, dragged him to a cell deliberately positioned away from cameras, and beat him until he lost consciousness. He was taken by ambulance to Howard University. Medical records confirmed fractured orbital bones, nasal bone fractures, possible traumatic optic neuropathy, and permanent partial vision loss in his right eye that he carries to this day.

He was falsely labeled a sex offender — a lie the prosecuting AUSA herself admitted in writing — yet that classification followed him from facility to facility, stripping him of basic protections and landing him in a three-by-six-foot cell with the lights burning 24 hours a day. A vascular surgeon ordered bilateral rib surgery for a serious pre-existing condition. The government denied it. They sent him back to his cell instead.

June 9, 2026 – Office of Special Counsel wants sanctions on Biden officials who conspired to violate court order re Title IX

Tim Mattson (Credit: public domain)

The U.S. Office of Special Counsel recommended severe sanctions for current and former Department of Education employees, “up to and including removal,” for their roles in a newly confirmed scheme to violate a court injunction against the Biden administration’s Title IX guidance, which interpreted “sex” to include “gender identity.”

Chief Counsel Charles Baldis told President Trump in a letter made public Wednesday that the department didn’t go far enough with its “corrective steps” in response to officials in the Biden administration, some of whom might have remained under President Trump, who threatened the federal funding of school districts that resisted the guidance’s novel view of “sex” after a court blocked the guidance nearly four years ago.

He called for “more robust action […] to ensure accountability and prevent recurrence,” including “expeditiously” completing its investigation and punishing employees, “including senior officials,” found to have “participated in, directed, assisted, or concealed efforts to defy the court’s injunction.”

The department should also consider “a monetary reward” for the whistleblower, Baldis said.

While his name is redacted in the letter, the whistleblower was previously identified as Kansas City Office for Civil Rights attorney Timothy Mattson. He’s represented by whistleblower advocacy group Empower Oversight, which told Just the News Wednesday it was surprised by the “stronger corrective actions” recommended by Baldis.

Catherine Lhamon (Credit: Wikipedia)

Mattson had accused national Office for Civil Rights Director Catherine Lhamon, who held the role in both Obama and Biden administrations, of “prohibited personnel practices” against him when he disclosed OCR’s violation of the injunction “to his chain of command.”

Baldis emphasized “the significance of the disclosure, his perseverance and the risks he took in coming forward, and the strength of ED’s substantiation.”

The department should also complete a “comprehensive, independent audit of all OCR enforcement actions taken in
enjoined states during the relevant period to identify and remedy any additional instances of non-compliance” and provide “full transparency” to OSC, Congress and the public on what it finds and what discipline and remedial action it takes, Baldis said.

The materials Baldis referenced are on OSC’s case page.

(Just the News, 6/10/2026)  (Archive)

Department of Education whistleblower Timothy Mattson reflects on the decision that ultimately led him to come forward with his concerns. Rather than seeking public attention, Mattson explains that he felt a responsibility to act when he believed concerns needed to be addressed.

After documenting concerns regarding the @usedgov’s Office for Civil Rights and its handling of certain Title IX matters during the Biden Administration, Mattson raised those concerns through official channels. Empower Oversight later filed disclosures on his behalf with the @US_OSC which released its final report vindicating Mattson regarding all of his disclosures. Mattson’s experience highlights a reality shared by many whistleblowers: most do not set out to become whistleblowers. They simply reach a point where remaining silent is no longer an option.

Link to the full interview and the final OSC report below.

A whistleblower report alleges Biden-era Education Department officials ignored a federal injunction and retaliated against employees who raised concerns.

June 9, 2026 – DHS approves states access to federal databases to verify citizenship – USPS will monitor all mail-in ballots – Election systems now under a federal visibility grid

Useful Idiot Kristen Welker’s PATHETIC defense of California election fraud DEBUNKED

Larry O’Connor takes Welker to task for the rigged system she’s dismissing.

“The real scandal coming out of California right now is quite possibly every single thing we are seeing transpire before our very eyes is 100% legal.”

O’Connor explains that anyone with a functional brain can see what’s happening in California and know that the election is being stolen.

“You can steal something and not break the law. And that’s what’s happening here. They are stealing it without actually breaking the law.”

As a former Californian resident, O’Connor breaks down the entire process.

“This is the election system in California as we speak. Anybody who is a registered voter gets a ballot mailed to them, and you register to vote because you walk into a DMV, and you automatically get registered no matter what. And as you know, California leads the nation in giving driver’s licenses and registrations to illegal immigrants, people who are in the country illegally, and they’re getting driver’s ed. They’re getting commercial driver’s license in California right now. And when you go through the process, they register you to vote. And there is no check for citizenship. There’s no check for ID, there’s no check for anything. And they’ll register to vote. And you’re on the voter rolls.”

O’Connor even stated he hasn’t lived in Los Angeles County since 2012, and he’s STILL being notified by email that his ballot has been mailed to him.

“I don’t know who’s got it. Whatever address I used to live in has has the Lawrence O’Connor ballot, and I’d love to know if I voted. I probably have without anyone knowing it.”

And then comes the issue of ballot harvesting…

“In California, individuals can go and collect ballots from anyone. They can go and knock on the doors and say, ‘Hey, give me your ballot. I’ll take care of it for you’ legally. And those people who knock on your door and collect your ballot, they call it ‘ballot harvesting,’ they can work for political entities. They can work for political action committees.”

“They can go and they can pick and choose what ballots they want to collect. And they bring them in or they don’t. And every mail in ballot, there is no ID required for every single mail in or drop box ballot. All you’ve got to do is sign the ballot. But of course, it would be discriminatory to allow somebody who is illiterate and can’t write their name to not vote.”

“So when you sign your ballot, you can just make a mark. You can make a smiley face if you want, but it’s witnessed. Don’t worry. There’s a little box for a witness to sign. But of course, there’s no name associated with a witness. It’s just a signature. And oh, by the way, when those ballots are collected, the witness signature isn’t checked.”

“They just check that there is a signature for a witness. So, of course, there’s nothing keeping people from making a little mark on the signature for the voter. And then that same person squiggling the witness box, putting it in an envelope and then having those votes come in. Oh, what else are they doing in California? Well, they allow ballots that come in as late as a week after Election Day to be counted. That doesn’t seem right. Oh. It’s okay. The ballot had to be mailed or put into a Dropbox or delivered by Election Day. But of course, if it’s not postmarked, they’ll overlook that. If there’s no postmark at all on the envelope, they’ll just look at whatever date you put on it and they’ll trust you, and then they’ll count the ballots.”

“Every single thing I just described for you is accurate and legal. They’re not breaking the law. They’re following the laws that they have written so that they can get away with this garbage and everyone knows it.”

Karoline Leavitt just locked the California Fraud Template into the national election conversation…

California functions as the operational scale model…

Universal mail-in ballots moving through fragmented custody chains… days of rolling vote drops… endless counting windows… weak verification standards…

Millions of ballots flowing through systems where visibility fractures the moment custody disperses across counties, contractors, facilities, and transport layers…

Now connect that to the infrastructure already sitting underneath the system…

USPS GPS telemetry… barcode custody trails… handheld scanner logs… facility routing data… timestamp sequencing across nationwide logistics networks…

Every ballot movement leaves a digital footprint… every reroute leaves a pattern… every delay creates a signal… every batch can be traced statistically…

The fight is no longer about whether the system can be manipulated… the fight is over who controls the visibility layer sitting above the movement of the ballots themselves…

Who controls custody data controls the audit field, who controls the audit field controls public reality…

California is not the endpoint, California is the template, and the template was built to scale…

***

Let’s break down what @drawandstrike and I are saying here…

The postal system is no longer just mail trucks and envelopes moving across the country… it has evolved into a nationwide tracking network built on GPS telemetry, handheld scanners, barcode custody trails, routing systems, and live operational monitoring tied into massive data infrastructure…

When ballots move through that system, every acceptance scan, transport transfer, sorting event, reroute, missed handoff, duplicate barcode read, delayed delivery, or chain-of-custody break leaves a timestamped footprint…

At scale, those footprints create an entirely different level of visibility into election mail movement that did not exist years ago… route anomalies, scan gaps, statistical outliers, delivery timing clusters, and regional irregularities can all be mapped across the network in near real time…

The real battle sits around visibility and control… who has access to the tracking data, who controls the audit layer, who can correlate the movement patterns, and who gets to interpret the billions of operational events flowing through the system every election cycle… guess who has access to the data?!?!

Don’t get us started on holographic markers and nuclear isotope ballot tagging… that’s an entirely different layer of chain of custody verification… Star Trek was narrative seeding… 😎

BQQM… the election fraud template is colliding directly into the federal visibility grid…

DHS just greenlit state access to federal citizenship databases while USPS starts helping track mail ballot movement, routing anomalies, custody trails, scan irregularities, and suspicious flow patterns…

Every mail ballot already leaves a digital footprint through barcode scans, handheld devices, GPS telemetry, sorting hubs, timestamps, and routing systems tied into massive national infrastructure…

At scale, patterns become impossible to hide…

This is the transition from blind trust into forensic visibility heading straight into the next election cycle…

***

DHS has approved a plan allowing states to verify voter citizenship through federal databases while also monitoring mail-in ballot activity for potential signs of fraud, advancing a central pillar of President Donald Trump’s election integrity agenda.

The initiative, expected to launch later this month, would give election officials access to federal citizenship records and allow voter rolls to be checked against immigration and government databases.

DHS also plans to work with USPS to track absentee and mail ballot flows, flag unusual patterns, and generate investigative leads. The move advances a major piece of President Trump’s election integrity agenda.

June 9, 2026 – The House Judiciary Committee holds hearing with the Southern Poverty Law Center

The House Judiciary Committee holds a hearing investigating the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) on Tuesday, June 9.

The hearing will “explore recently released information revealing that the SPLC has funneled money to some extremists, raising questions whether the SPLC has been artificially elevating the domestic extremist threat and misleading its donors.”

The Department of Justice said in an indictment last week that the far-left SPLC “used their donors’ money ‘to fund the leaders and organizations of racist groups, including the Ku Klux Klan, the Aryan Nations, and the National Alliance.’”

“The SPLC’s paid informants (‘field sources’) engaged in the active promotion of racist groups at the same time that the SPLC was denouncing the same groups on its website,” the DOJ said in Tuesday’s superseding indictment.

The department goes on to allege that $4.1 million worth of tax-exempt funds were used to pay these individuals whose activities even included recruiting new members and buying materials for cross burnings and KKK robes and hoods.

The far-left organization is still facing 11 counts of wire fraud, false statements to a bank, and money laundering conspiracy, all charges which were filed in April.

(Breitbart News, 6/9/2026)

It’s time to drop a MEGA decode BQMB on the SPLC, ADL, and more…

The SPLC decode was never about one organization… it was about exposing the architecture behind the modern control grid…

The allegations presented before Congress show the SPLC accused of funding and embedding field sources inside extremist groups while simultaneously fundraising, expanding influence, and driving corporate censorship off the very movements it claimed to fight…

Create the threat…
Infiltrate the threat…
Amplify the threat…
Monetize the fear…
Then weaponize the fallout to pressure banks, tech platforms, payment processors, hosting providers, donor systems, and social media companies into silencing political opposition…

That is infrastructure warfare…

Now zoom out…

The SPLC was never operating alone…

The Anti-Defamation League…
NGO influence networks…
“Trust and safety” coalitions…
Counter-extremism partnerships…
Behavioral monitoring systems…
AI moderation frameworks…

Different names… same architecture…

A distributed narrative enforcement system sitting between the population and the infrastructure modern society depends on…

Banking…
Payments…
Search visibility…
Advertising…
Hosting…
Fundraising…
Social amplification…
AI filtering layers…

Charlottesville became a massive acceleration node inside that system…

According to testimony before Congress, SPLC fundraising reportedly exploded from roughly $51 million to $133 million following the emotional shockwave surrounding those events…

Fear became the fuel… the narrative became the weapon… corporate infrastructure became the enforcement arm…

That is the real story…

Unelected NGOs influencing who can bank, fundraise, process payments, gain visibility, or exist inside the digital public square… all under the shield of “extremism prevention,” “misinformation,” and “safety” enforcement…

The old model required direct government censorship…

The new model uses partnered corporations, NGOs, media amplification, algorithmic suppression, and financial dependency systems to achieve the same outcome with plausible deniability…

This was never just about stopping hate… it was about building a scalable control architecture capable of shaping perception, restricting dissent, and engineering societal behavior at scale…

That is the decode… BQQM…

June 10, 2026 – FBI thwarts alleged drone terror attack targeting White House UFC Freedom 250 event

An alleged explosive drone terror attack destined for Sunday’s UFC Freedom 250 event on the White House South Lawn was thwarted by the FBI and five suspects are now in custody, it was revealed Tuesday.

FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed the foiled plan after Fox News first broke the news.

On June 10, FBI and our law enforcement partners became aware of a potential threat to the UFC America 250 event in Washington, D.C. involving individuals outside of the National Capital Region – and thanks to the rapid action of this FBI, our partners, and the Department of Justice in a multi-state operation, multiple individuals are now in custody and allegedly planned attacks were stopped cold.

While the result represented the best of investigative work, it was also nothing out of the ordinary for this law enforcement team – we are built to detect, respond to, and bring to justice those who threaten the lives of American citizens – particularly during large gatherings like the historic UFC 250 fight. That’s exactly what we did here. I want to thank our great agents and partners, this work remains ongoing and we will continue to update the public as permitted.

We continue to encourage any American to report anything suspicious at 1-800-CALL-FBI or http://tips.fbi.gov.”

The report further reveals possible motives for the alleged terror assault, with one suspect allegedly told investigators the goal was to target “capitalist elites,” “billionaires” or politicians who received donations from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.

Proper, 19, of Danville, Ohio; Bryan Omar Roa, 24, of Calimesa, California; Michael Alan Thomas, 32, of Pinon Hills, California; Daniel K. Eskridge, 32, of Kidder, Missouri; and Abraham Hermosillo Alvarez, 31, of Omaha, Nebraska, conspired to plan and execute a mass casualty event targeting U.S. officials in attendance at UFC Freedom 250 hosted on the White House grounds.”

June 10, 2026 – ActBlue CEO Regina Wallace-Jones appears before House Administration Committee and pleads the Fifth 22 times

(…) Jones was called to testify at a hearing titled “Preventing Fraudulent Donations: Transparency, Verification, and Accountability” after she was informed by her attorneys that she may have misled Congress in a 2023 letter to Congress about ActBlue’s vetting of foreign donations.

The Gateway Pundit has reported extensively on the dark-money Democrat donation platform and its policies that allow foreign money to be pumped into Democratic candidates. One of the tactics used to make fraudulent donations is through unsuspecting individuals or ActBlue “smurfs,” whose personal information is used to make donations without their knowledge.

During the hearing, Wallace-Jones refused to answer a single question, pleading the Fifth 22 times.

The following questions were asked by House Administration Committee Bryan Steil:

  • In 2023, I sent you this letter with five straightforward questions with a goal of confirming that foreign funds are not in our elections and that ACT Blue had adequate fraud prevention measures in place. You replied a month later with a four-page letter describing your fraud prevention policies and procedures that you had in place at ActBlue. But according to the New York Times, your response to this committee may have been false and misleading. When you signed this letter to me, did you believe that this letter was false and misleading?
  • Before you sent this letter, was it brought to your attention that this letter that you sent me was false and misleading?
  • According to the New York Times, you’ve been aware for quite a while that the response you made was likely false or misleading. Did you ever consider correcting the record for this committee when it was brought to your attention that your letter to me was false and misleading?
  • Your letter claimed that passport information is required from donors providing an address outside the United States. In November 2023, when you wrote that letter, did every ActBlue donation provided an address outside the United States require passport information?
  • Your letter also claimed that ActBlue would contact a donor to request passport information if the contribution appeared to be from a foreign address, and you told this committee that the contribution would be refunded if ActBlue was unable to make contact with the donor. Is that correct?
  • We have reason to believe that your letter in 2023 was not correct because, according to the New York Times, donations that were made through third party apps like PayPal or Venmo, passport information was not always required. So, what’s true? The 2023 letter you sent me or the New York Times article?
  • After you sent me the 2023 letter. ActBlue weakened its fraud prevention rules twice in 2024, quote, ‘even after internal assessments confirmed that these policy changes would lead to more fraudulent donations,’ End quote. Did you weaken fraud prevention standards to increase donations on the ACL blue platform?
  • You’ve been asked legitimate questions that are intended to elicit information the committee has the right to have to aid our inquiry. You’ve refused to answer the questions. Are you formally asserting your Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination today?

Wallace-Jones further stonewalled House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) and Rep. Greg Murphy (R-NC), refusing to answer the following.

  • Your board chairman said ActBlue accepted up to 38 million contributions in 2024 that had the signs of foreign origin. How much fraud is too much fraud?
  • How many foreign contributions did ActBlue accept?
  • How much money did ActBlue accept from Russia?
  • Why did your entire legal team quit, your in-house legal team?
  • Did your legal team quit because of reduced fraud standards?
  • Did you weaken your fraud standards to help Democrats?
  • Do you regret any of the things that you said or any of the things that ActBlue has done in the past in regards to foreign donations?
  • If you had the chance to pick another place to be employed, would you have joined ActBlue?

June 11, 2026 – FBI raids Ohio voting rights group, questions members across state

FBI agents raided the Cleveland office of an Ohio progressive voting-rights group on June 11 and questioned its members across the state, a board member confirmed.

Agents questioned volunteers and civil rights leaders with the Ohio Organizing Collaborative across the state, looking for evidence of alleged voter fraud, Ohio Organizing Collaborative Board Member Prentiss Haney said. MS NOW first reported about the raid on the nonprofit, which helps register voters and fights for ballot access.

Haney estimated more than 100 agents questioned people currently and previously affiliated with the group across Ohio, including in Columbus, Dayton and Cincinnati.

“They were knocking on their doors. They were calling and demanding people to come outside without warrants and using political intimidation tactics, accusing them of alleged voter fraud,” Haney said. “Yes, there was a raid, but there was not just a raid. It was a full onslaught.”

June 11, 2026 – Trump admin blocks payments to ‘obviously fraudulent’ Los Angeles homeless agency

President Donald Trump and Secretary of HUD Scott Turner on April 4, 2019. ((Credit: Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images)

The Department of Housing and Urban Development under President Donald Trump announced an “immediate suspension” on all funding to the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority, citing a “clear pattern of fraud.”

“Year after year, hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars were funneled to LAHSA with little accountability,” HUD Secretary Scott Turner said in a statement Thursday. “Meanwhile, homelessness skyrocketed. Taxpayers will no longer bankroll an organization that puts its own self-interests ahead of the Americans it was created to serve.”

The New York Post reported in March that taxpayers are paying up to $1.5 million per homeless person in Los Angeles. This amount is nearly eight times larger than the average 50-year-old’s retirement fund and more than 20 times larger than the average 35- to 39-year-old’s retirement fund, per Fidelity Investments reporting.

While much of these funds are sourced from the city and county of LA, nearly $1 billion in federal taxpayer dollars have gone toward LAHSA since 2021.

The HUD press release cites multiple instances that the agency claims “establish a clear pattern of fraud,” including poor financial management and internal controls, conflicts of interest, and false certifications and statements.

“During a 2025 assessment, LAHSA failed to provide documentation to verify the existence of nearly 2,300 housing sites for which it was responsible,” the press release said. “The agency’s former CEO resigned after she and LAHSA violated federal conflict-of-interest rules by committing more than $2 million in federal funds under LAHSA’s control to her husband’s employer.”

June 11, 2026 – Two court clerks in Utah are indicted for helping illegal alien avoid ICE custody

Jennifer Joma, left and Lauren Morrow are charged in federal court with allegedly helping an immigrant evade detention by federal immigration authorities on April 9. (GoFundMe)

Two court clerks in Logan, Utah, face federal charges with potentially up to 25 years in prison after allegedly obstructing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations.

WHAT HAPPENED: Two court clerks in Logan, Utah, have been indicted for allegedly helping an illegal immigrant evade U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

DETAIL: Described as “self-appointed ICE vigilantes,” 26-year-old Lauren Morrow and 27-year-old Jennifer Joma allegedly helped an illegal immigrant evade custody. The pair allegedly prevented ICE from executing a warrant at Logan City Municipal Justice Court in April. The two clerks went through the court’s database to check the immigration status of people on the docket, identified a Guatemalan man, the ICE target, and two women, one of whom was from Mexico, and snuck them out the back of the courthouse where Joma drove them away in her car. CCTV footage captured Morrow making a crude gesture at the security camera, with the two apparently reveling in their alleged actions. The two women were charged on Wednesday with conspiracy to transport and harbor illegal aliens and obstruction of Homeland Security proceedings. During questioning, Morrow reportedly refused to tell authorities the whereabouts of the ICE target. (Read more: The National Pulse, 6/11/2026)  (Archive)

June 11, 2026 – DHS Secretary Mullin reveals 146,000 trafficked children during Biden regime are found; many claim they were raped several hundred times

OMG. DHS Sec. Markwayne Mullin reveals some children trafficked across the Democrats’ border say they were R*PED *600-700 TIMES*

“I don’t care who you are…liberal, independent, Republican, if you can’t STAND for law enforcement to find these kids, WHO ARE YOU?!” 💯

“We found 146,000 kids so far. 146,000 kids. We still have nearly 300,000 missing. We’re investigating reports to where some of these kids claim that they were r*ped 600 to 700 times.”

The Democrats hear this and either don’t care or want to pretend it’s not happening. Traitors.

June 12, 2026 – Texas Parole Supervisor fired over racist anti-white post about Austin Metcalf case

Former Texas Department of Criminal Justice parole supervisor, Donna Murray Robinson (Credit: Facebook)

A Texas Department of Criminal Justice parole supervisor has been fired after posting vile anti-white racist comments on social media in response to the conviction of Karmelo Anthony for the murder of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf.

Donna Murray Robinson, who was a TDCJ Parole Supervisor working with the Board of Pardons and Parole, posted on Facebook shortly after Anthony’s conviction and sentencing earlier this week.

In the post, she expressed no sympathy for the Metcalf family and called for white people to start “burying their own kids.”

“I am a Parole Supervisor at TX DCJ,” Robinson began. “Karmelo will be ok I can almost assure you he will be protected on the inside. I for one don’t give fk about the family’s loss.”

Robinson continued, “It’s about time these fking bigots feel the pain that they have inflicted on other groups of people since the beginning of time!”

“I’m just glad we didn’t have to bury another black child. Let them start burying some of theirs for a change. FK’em I said what I said.”

The Texas Department of Criminal Justice confirmed her termination on Friday.

A department spokeswoman told The Dallas Morning News that Robinson was fired after a review of her public statements.

The spokesperson noted that the position “carries significant public trust and requires decisions free from personal bias.”

“These statements are incompatible with TDCJ policy and values. They demonstrate bias and a lack of the impartiality essential to the fair administration of justice in Texas,” the statement said. “Discriminatory or inflammatory conduct that erodes public confidence in the criminal justice system will not be tolerated.”

June 12, 2026 – Meet the Democratic Socialists’ paramilitary army of Red Rabbits

In 2009, Barack Obama advocated an internal, Gestapo-like security force:

“We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.”

That never came to pass, and Obama apologists whined that The Lightbringer was only talking about the sum of the enforcement arms of the Federal Government. He plainly wasn’t, but if they were correct, that goal reached fruition during Obama’s third term: Biden’s Handler’s Administration. Their “whole of government” approach to weaponization against Normal Americans—largely but not exclusively Republicans—was the closest thing Democrats have been able to manage.

What Obama, and other Democrats mean is that to impose “our Democracy,” a tyranny of the majority, on our constitutional republic, will require an actual army, as well as disarmament of citizens. They know they won’t be able to rely on our military and federal law enforcement to oppress and kill their fellow Americans. Certainly, the COVID oppression revealed some of them will, but not enough. It’s an ongoing project for them, one taken up by the Democratic Socialists—there’s a misnomer—of America:

As its national influence has risen, the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) has simultaneously grown more extreme. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the group’s “Red Rabbits” initiative. The Red Rabbits Security Commission, a subgroup within the DSA focused on “community defense” efforts, is, according to its authorizing resolution, preparing for a “national uprising against federal agents and police brutality.” In practice, that means training cadres in tactics like armed and unarmed self-defense, blocking intersections, and fighting “fascists” with umbrellas.

“Red Rabbits?” The “red”—as in communists and Mao’s Red Guard—is no coincidence. They’re thugs, enforcers, the armed vanguard of the coming revolution, the new embodiment of Obama’s “civilian national security force.” The One must be so proud. The article notes they’re worried about IRS scrutiny because they could lose their tax-exempt status and that of their funding sources. They ought to be worried about DOJ scrutiny too.

The Red Rabbits claim that their focus is on five core security skills: de-escalation, Stop the Bleed (a first aid training on bleeding control), firearm safety, unarmed self-defense, and protest marshalling (crowd management during demonstrations). The commission has set a goal of having at least five members in 40 percent of DSA chapters complete these trainings.

During the event [a meeting of the DSA’s central political committee], local chapters described a range of security preparations broader than that envisioned by the national commission. These included martial-arts sparring, evacuation planning, wound-packing, radio communications, the use of umbrellas and signs to shield participants from and block “fascists,” and even chemical-exposure training, in which participants practiced being pepper-sprayed.

As one might imagine, there’s a “queer” element to this militancy:

Some chapters already conduct in-house trainings or are working to expand them, such as the Philadelphia chapter’s plan to develop what one member called “sick” firearm-safety trainings. The DSA’s Oklahoma City Queer Fight Club has evidently become a local training hub, teaching self-defense and broader “community defense” skills. Portland DSA has organized trainings on blocking intersections with bicycles, a practice known as “corking.”

These Red Rabbits are some of the people we’re seeing at violent, anti-immigration enforcement street insurrections across the country. We’re steadily discovering more about their funding, both internal and foreign, and their connections to hostile foreign regimes.  These are not spontaneous, local, grassroots “protests,” but nationally coordinated, directed, and financed attacks against legitimate authority designed to destabilize America and replace our constitutional, representative republic with a totalitarian communist dictatorship.

Inside the DSA’s Emerging Militant Network

As its national influence has risen, the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) has simultaneously grown more extreme. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the group’s “Red Rabbits” initiative. The Red Rabbits Security Commission, a subgroup within the DSA focused on “community defense” efforts, is, according to its authorizing resolution, preparing for a “national uprising against federal agents and police brutality.” In practice, that means training cadres in tactics like armed and unarmed self-defense, blocking intersections, and fighting “fascists” with umbrellas.

A recent panel offered an unprecedented window into what the project looks like. Organizers from Minnesota, Oklahoma City, Philadelphia, Tucson, Austin, and Portland compared notes. As the discussion made clear, the DSA is trying to construct a nationwide security apparatus to support its expanding role in street protests and direct-action organizing. And in so doing, it fears drawing the attention of the Internal Revenue Service—likely with good reason.

The DSA launched the Red Rabbits Security Commission at its 2025 national convention. Organizers chose the deliberately innocuous name as a nod to the novel Watership Down, in which anthropomorphized rabbits are outnumbered and beset by enemies. Earlier branding proposals, including “National Vigilance Committee,” were deemed too politically stark, with some members concerned that they could be interpreted as an endorsement of vigilantism.

The Red Rabbits claim that their focus is on five core security skills: de-escalation, Stop the Bleed (a first aid training on bleeding control), firearm safety, unarmed self-defense, and protest marshalling (crowd management during demonstrations).

June 11, 2026 – Virginia’s Loudoun County Schools Supt. Aaron Spence testifies it’s required by Federal law to let biological boys in girls restrooms and locker rooms

Under oath before Congress, Loudoun Virginia County Schools Supt. Aaron Spence was asked if biological men should be in locker rooms and shower rooms with biological girls.

His answer: “Federal law requires it. Yes.”

It does NOT.

The Dept. of Education ruled the opposite — LCPS’s policy violates Title IX, and the district is under active federal investigation for it. This is what ideological capture looks like.

Full Hearing – Loudoun County Public Schools Superintendent Dr. Aaron Spence is set to testify before a congressional committee Wednesday. The hearing will focus on parental rights, school policies and legal issues in education. Spence’s appearance comes as LCPS remains under investigation by the U.S. Department of Education.

June 12, 2026 – DNI Tulsi Gabbard releases new information on 120 U.S. government funded gain-of-function biolabs operating worldwide

Moments ago, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard released the first batch in a series of declassified documents highlighting 120 U.S. government biolabs that are operating throughout the world.  Many of these biolabs are working on weaponized viruses and present a significant threat to public safety.

TULSI GABBARD – “Today, I’m releasing never before seen intelligence revealing new evidence of past US government funding for more than 120 biolabs in over 30 countries, including Ukraine.

In support of President Trump‘s Executive Order to end federal funding of dangerous gain of function research around the world, and increase transparency and accountability, ODNI will continue working with partners across the Administration to identify where these labs are, what pathogens they contain, and what “research” is being conducted.” WATCH:

DNI Press Release: WASHINGTON D.C. — After months of searching through Intelligence Community holdings and files, Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard is revealing new evidence of longstanding United States government funding for more than 120 biolabs in over 30 countries. These biolabs include labs in Ukraine, which may be at risk of compromise due to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war. For example, the Intelligence Community previously warned that a US-funded biolab in Ukraine likely housed dangerous pathogens and remained vulnerable to longstanding threats of Russian attack, seizure, or damage.

The newly declassified evidence can be found HERE.

Until now, evidence regarding the full existence and funding of these laboratories had been knowingly withheld from the American people. The information surrounding the existence, history, locations and funding of these US funded biolabs has been intentionally covered up by powerful people falsely, claiming that they do not exist and accusing anyone who says otherwise to be foreign assets and traitors to America.

Many of these U.S. government-funded biolabs are currently or have previously engaged in research using hazardous and highly contagious pathogens, in some cases to include dangerous Gain-of-Function research, with very little visibility or oversight.

President Trump understands the serious threat dangerous Gain-of-Function research poses to the American people, which is why he took decisive action on May 25, 2025, signing EO 14292 to end federal funding of Gain-of-Function research around the world.

“Despite the obvious potential for catastrophic global impact research on dangerous pathogens in biolabs can have, 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 U.S.-funded and supported biolabs, and threatened those who attempted to expose the truth. ODNI will continue to work closely with partners across the government to identify where these labs are, what pathogens they contain to end dangerous Gain-of-Function research that threatens the health and wellbeing of the American people and people around the world,” said DNI Gabbard.

DNI Gabbard issued new guidance to the Intelligence Community directing increased collection on these laboratories and facilities overseas. This directive is already providing new details on clinical trials that are underway at these facilities, raising significant ethical, financial, and security concerns regarding these supposed public health initiatives and U.S. national security.

June 14, 2026 – Mike Pence, Mike Pompeo, John Bolton, and Elaine Chao were paid by a Marxist-Islamist Iran group known as MEK

THREAD: What do Mike Pence, Mike Pompeo, John Bolton, and Elaine Chao have in common? They were all paid by a Marxist-Islamist Iran group that was designated as terrorist until 2012.

No, this is not a joke.

Mojahedin-e-Khalq (MEK) was founded by leftist Islamists to oppose the western-backed Pahlavi, and participated in his 1979 overthrow. Khomeini barred MEK afterwards. MEK was implicated in multiple bombings, including that of Americans, and remained an openly armed group until 2003.

Since they got de-listed as a terrorist organization in 2012 on procedural grounds, MEK and their fronts have been actively recruiting US politicians selling themselves as a moderate alternative to Khomeini. But RAND Corporation says MEK meets the qualifications for a cult, citing criteria such as forcing their members to work 16+ hour days and forced divorces.

Polls of the Iranian-American community shows that they do NOT accept Rajavi, MeK’s leader, as legitimate, with a 46-point net disapproval – numbers nearly as bad as the existing regime.

As Pence’s former Chief of Staff, Marc Short, has already weighed against Trump deal, it’s helpful to recall this.

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

June 14, 2026 – Sen. Mark Warner says intel community “terrified of showing” information to Bill Pulte

There comes a certain point when you just have to listen to the corrupt deep state operatives within the Intelligence Community openly state the nature of their activity.

Yes, I have laid it out for multiple years. Yes, people have not grasped how Machiavellian the network is. Yes, the DC denial and media obfuscation is rampant. However, just listen to them and they will eventually tell you exactly how weaponized the United States intelligence system is.  This is a quote:

…“Well, my fear is not so much the damage [Pulte] could do on Section 702, which has a full audit trail. If he misuses that, we’ll figure it out but having him exposed where he doesn’t even have a security clearance to all our nation’s classified programs, out of ignorance, he might give away information. I’ve had heads of our intelligence communities say to us they’re terrified of showing him information. I’ve had foreign governments express huge concern.“

Obviously, playing the role of guardian for the system, Margaret Brennan doesn’t immediately ask, who are these “heads of our intelligence communities?” or “who are these foreign governments?”  Likely for the same reason HPSCI member Elise Stefanik never pressed the rogue political operation issue with FBI Director James Comey on March 20, 2017.

(FULL Transcript) – MARGARET BRENNAN: We’re joined now by the top Democrat on the Intelligence Committee, Virginia Senator Mark Warner. It’s good to have you here.

SENATOR MARK WARNER: Thank you, Margaret.

MARGARET BRENNAN: As you heard from the Secretary, a lot of these very important details have to still be negotiated. What do you think, though, of the emerging ceasefire and agreement, because you favored diplomacy?

SEN. WARNER: Listen, if the President can declare victory, so be it. You heard Pete Hegseth’s pitch. Let’s look at the real facts. 107 days into Donald Trump’s war of choice, can anyone make the case that we, or our allies, are in a better spot than before this war? The regime’s leadership is more radical than ever. The ability for us to get the enriched uranium out, I believe, will require troops on the ground, which I don’t think America wants to do. The idea that we have a 60 day additional negotiation, where does that lead? We’ll be here 60 days, still won’t have access to it. Clearly, after Hegseth had said, “We’ve destroyed all their capabilities,” they still have plenty of missiles and thousands of drones, and the idea that the strait is suddenly going to be magically reopened. Look at the gas prices, they went from $2.80 to $4.20 and I believe they’ll go up more because the overall world reserves have all come down. How is that better for America or better for our allies?

MARGARET BRENNAN: Well, it’s- there are a lot of details in here that, like I said, still have to be negotiated, and when we look at Congress’s role in terms of peeling back some of these sanctions, this was hugely controversial during the Obama administration. Do you think ultimately that whatever is hammered out by Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner and JD Vance, the Vice President, will come up for approval? Do you get any say?

SEN. WARNER: Well, first of all, the idea that these three gentlemen that have very little background in terms of negotiations or the technical nature of nuclear negotiations going against a hardened Iranian team that’s been doing this for decades. I wish we had some of our experts at the table as well, but I’m not sure any of this will be coming before Congress, and it should. I mean, if the President wanted to start this war, a war of choice, there was no imminent threat from Iran. Come to the Congress, come to the people, and lay out the case. He has not, and we have not done the kind of oversight that is required.

MARGARET BRENNAN: Yeah.

SEN. WARNER: We are slowly moving along and getting additional Republicans to say stop on the War Powers Act, but Congress has failed miserably.

MARGARET BRENNAN: I- before I move on to other things, I just want to put a fine point on the U.S. intelligence assessment was not that Iran was creating a nuclear weapon, but that they wanted the possibility to make one in the future. Given what they have, the nuclear dust, the dirty bomb in the desert scenario, does that still worry you? How concerned should Americans be?

SEN. WARNER: Yes, I’m still worried. And for all his critique of JCPOA, we had international observers, we actually had an alliance there that included the Europeans, and Russia and China were all signatories. Now it is America going alone or going with Israel only, and that does not make us safer. And again, I will be happy to come back on the show and eat my words if the Iranians over the next 60 days give up that enriched uranium.

MARGARET BRENNAN: Yeah, well, we’ll watch for whatever happens next. I want to ask you about surveillance here and the lapse of a key authority. On Thursday, the President did appoint Jay Clayton, he said, who will be the next Director of National Intelligence, instead of Bill Pulte, to who I know you oppose–

SEN. WARNER: Not only I oppose–

MARGARET BRENNAN: Yeah–

SEN. WARNER: –but all of the Republican senators who will know anything about national security opposed as well.

MARGARET BRENNAN: Yes, there are some pretty colorful statements, but Clayton is the current US attorney for the Southern District of New York, a former SEC chair. How quickly can he move into the role? I mean, he doesn’t necessarily have the kind of extensive national security background that–

(CROSSTALK)

SEN. WARNER: Law enforcement, he was head of the SEC, and as Southern District of New York, that’s where we pursue a lot of our terrorists. I know Jay. I think he’s got the right temperament. I’ve got a lot of questions, like who won the election in 2020, so he at least acknowledges that truthfulness. But remember, Margaret, this was totally caused by Donald Trump.

MARGARET BRENNAN: Well–

SEN. WARNER: He could have nominated Jay Clayton a week ago–

MARGARET BRENNAN: Yeah.

SEN. WARNER: –and we wouldn’t have gone dark.

MARGARET BRENNAN: This is an extraordinary series of events that we have to take more time to talk about on the other side of the break. Let me take it, and we’ll finish it. We’ll be right back.

(ANNOUNCEMENTS)

MARGARET BRENNAN: Welcome back to Face the Nation. We return to our conversation now with Senator Mark Warner. Before the break, Senator, we were talking about the next Director of National Intelligence. The hearing for Jay Clayton is next week, this Wednesday, right? How quickly can he get confirmed, and what does that do in terms of blocking Bill Pulte from ever taking the job?

SEN. WARNER: Well, I’ve got questions for Jay, like, want to make sure that he’s going to maintain the integrity of our elections, not try to pull the things that Miss Gabbard did, where she was interfering in domestic election activities with the seizure of the ballots in Fulton County. My hope is, if we can get unanimous consent, we could even get him confirmed this week. I would hope that the President would then say to Tulsi Gabbard, who is going to stay till the end of the month, stay at least until Clayton is confirmed, or allow the number two to stay.

MARGARET BRENNAN: That’s a shocking statement from you, because you are a huge critic of Tulsi Gabbard.

(CROSSTALK)

SEN. WARNER: I am a huge critic.

MARGARET BRENNAN: How much damage could Bill Pulte actually do in a matter of days?

SEN. WARNER: Well, my fear is not so much the damage he could do on Section 702, which has a full audit trail. If he misuses that, we’ll figure it out, but having him exposed where he doesn’t even have a security clearance to all our nation’s classified programs, out of ignorance, he might give away information. I’ve had heads of our intelligence communities say to us they’re terrified of showing him information. I’ve had foreign governments express huge concern. The one thing we know about Bill Pulte is ¹he will do whatever Donald Trump says. He was able to weaponize private mortgage insurance information, giving them the keys to the 18 intelligence agencies would be a disaster and a national security threat.

[¹NOTE: So, the DNI should NOT DO whatever the President of the United States tells him or her?]

MARGARET BRENNAN: So, I’m understanding you will withhold your vote to reauthorize FISA based on this.

SEN. WARNER: Listen, we have to get FISA reauthorized. We were on a glide path–

(CROSSTALK)

MARGARET BRENNAN: This is a warrantless surveillance tool. ²This is a foreigner concern abroad.

SEN. WARNER: ²Foreigners listening in on foreigners talking to foreigners abroad. None of this needed to happen if Donald Trump had- he didn’t even come out in support of this tool until about six weeks ago. If he put forward Clayton or somebody else six weeks ago, if he would have done even Jay Clayton a few days earlier. I actually think Donald Trump wants this tool to expire because he would then try to blame Democrats if, God forbid, if anything happens. And the remarkable thing on this is normally we come on here and it’s Democrats versus Republicans–

[NOTE: Nonsense. The term “702” specifically and uniquely is applied to Americans with constitutional protection. “702” has nothing to do with intercepting or investigating foreigners – Nothing at all. Foreigners are not protected by the Constitution!]

MARGARET BRENNAN: Yeah.

SEN. WARNER: –this one is not. My Republican colleagues have worked hand in glove. If there is something that happens, God forbid, the responsibility lies with one man, Donald Trump.

MARGARET BRENNAN: That is a tremendous statement that you think the president actually wants this tool to not be accessible. I mean, it’s the congressional authorization expired on Friday. Your Republican counterpart, Senator Tom Cotton, described the consequences as severe, potentially fatal, considering all the mass gatherings in America right now. How vulnerable is the US right now? Have Google and Verizon and the rest said, if you come and ask me for information, I won’t hand it over?

SEN. WARNER: What has happened is those investigations that have already started continue.

MARGARET BRENNAN: Okay.

SEN. WARNER: Our ability to continue to listen to bad guys talking to bad guys abroad continues. The question is whether you can start new actions, and we are now, and I’ve not gotten a report yet whether the telcos and the Googles are going to continue to adhere or whether, because they don’t have the indemnification, they’ll stop participating. We don’t have, I don’t- as of Sunday morning, I don’t have an answer on that. I hope the Justice Department would use all the tools they can to try to encourage them to continue this program, for what will be, whether we like it now or not, a short-term lapse.

MARGARET BRENNAN: But Democrats are using their leverage here with FISA to force the president to change his nominees. He did that, so why do we have a Democrat standing up, and for example, blocking unanimous consent in regard to reauthorizing even a short-term surveillance too? This seems to be national security risk of huge proportion.

SEN. WARNER: National security risk caused because Donald Trump did not put forward Clayton or anyone else that was legitimate until the clock had run out. There is no question. If you got any of my Republican colleagues here, they would agree this was a White House-created problem. And finally, somebody got to Trump and said, “You got to put a rational person in, not this guy who’s not even got a national security clearance.” We will get Clayton, I hope, confirmed as quickly as possible. We will then move very quickly to get FISA reauthorized. In the interim, I hope the telcos will continue to cooperate with the government.

MARGARET BRENNAN: Senator Mark Warner, thank you for your time today.

SEN. WARNER: Thank you, Margaret.

June 15, 2026 – Gavin Newsom announces he and his wife are under federal investigation

California Governor Gavin Newsom on Monday fumed, saying he and his wife are under federal investigation.

The scope of the investigation is unclear; however, Newsom said federal agents have contacted people and organizations close to him and his wife, Jennifer Newsom.

People close to the Newsoms have been subpoenaed for records, according to the governor.

Recall that Newsom’s former chief of staff Dana Williamson was indicted on federal wire fraud charges last year.

According to Semafor, there are several investigations related to Newsom and they are focused on Jennifer Newsom’s taxes (+ his chief of staff).

Contrary to Newsom’s claims, the investigations did not originate from main DOJ in DC, but are out of Sacramento and involve whistleblowers, Semafor reported.

The California Democrat absurdly claimed that President Trump is trying to jail his political enemies.

“Today, my wife and I joined Donald Trump’s hit list. He has directed his Department of Justice to investigate us. They have not found a crime – they are simply trying to find one,” Newsom said in a video posted to X.

“If he can’t intimidate me, he’ll go after the mother of our children,” Newsom said.

“He isn’t coming after me because of mean tweets, but because I am considering running for President,” Newsom said.

“He hates that I consistently call him out. He is simply the most corrupt President in American history,” the California Democrat added.

(Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 6/15/2026)  (Archive)

(…) In March, The California Post reported that the governor had funneled millions of dollars to a non-profit organization founded by his wife through what are called “behested payments.”

(…) Gov. Newsom has “behested” donations to a variety of causes — including the California Partners Project, a nonprofit organization founded by his wife that focuses on gender equity.

Sometimes, the donors have interests at stake in decisions by the state government.

The Washington Free Beacon reported in 2025 that the governor had asked a Native American tribe to make two separate $500,000 donations to the California Partners Project. He apparently took that tribe’s side in a dispute with another tribe over a casino. (Read more: New York Post, 6/15/2026)

June 15, 2026 – Car insurance premiums rise to record highs to subsidize increased costs due to illegal alien drivers

Under the disastrous Open Border Policy of Crooked Joe Biden and his traitorous DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, TENS OF MILLIONS of criminals, including over 13,000 STONE-COLD MURDERERS, poured into our Country from Prisons and Jails, from Mental Institutions and Insane Asylums. Needless to say, they were NOT always the safest drivers! Car Insurance Premiums rose to RECORD HIGHS, forcing Law-abiding American Citizens to subsidize the “free riding” Biden Illegals. After over a year of ZERO ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, and our highly successful efforts to REVERSE the Biden Invasion, Car Insurance Premiums have come tumbling down. MAKE AMERICA SAFE AGAIN!

June 15, 2026 – British Prime Minister announces social media information control system for all Brits to protect “children”

Leftist British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has lost support among the majority of voters within the United Kingdom as evidenced by the shellacking his party took in the recent election.  However, as the embattled leader clings to power by telling law enforcement to crackdown on anti-government voices, he extends the control mechanisms under the guise of “protecting children.”

If you are a social media user or internet user in the U.K, you now have to prove your age by proving your identity. It is obvious to the non-pretenders that proving your identity is the objective; the ruse to force the mandate is to prove your age. This is the way a grand lie is deployed in order to achieve an objective.  ‘All your information are belong to us.’

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer delivers a press conference with the announcement from 10 Downing Street. He announces a sweeping ban on social media for children under 16, describing it as a “big step” to protect young people from online harm. Starmer defends the policy as necessary to tackle “addictive algorithms, cyberbullying, and mental health risks.”  Britain will follow Australia’s example in raising the minimum age to 16 for sites such as TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, X, YouTube, and Snapchat.

BIG PICTURE: Australia, New Zealand and Canada all have social media control systems in place. Now, the U.K joins with them.  What does Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the U.K have on common?  They are all part of the 5-Eyes intelligence network.  This is an IC operation. Don’t lose sight of it.

This is a freedom battle against aligned interests that have historically used the intelligence community as their main strategy.

From the western globalist perspective, you must always accept their #1 priority is information control. It doesn’t matter what the tool or technique of the day being discussed it, the #1 issue -for them- is to control information.

Look at everything, including and importantly the current AI discussions and debate, through the prism of information control. COVID-19 taught you the lesson. Information control is the objective.

Social media restrictions, internet restrictions, the terms ‘mis-dis-mal-information’ etc., the AI race, election systems they can manage, demonetizing or deboosting, CISA, NED, USAID, the payment to “influencers”, media bans, all of it, the sum of every effort, tool and technique is about controlling information.

June 15, 2026 – House Oversight Committee probes ‘pay-to-play’ concerns at Norm Eisen’s non-profit

The House Oversight Committee announced Friday that it would investigate a nonprofit linked to an anti-Trump activist for possible violations of tax laws.

House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., announced that his committee would be investigating former Ambassador Norm Eisen’s nonprofit, State Democracy Defenders Fund (SDDF), for possibly using donor funds for private financial interests.

Comer said that “The Fund’s most recently available IRS Form 990EZ describes the organization’s primary tax-exempt purpose in three parts: 1) going against ‘democracy deniers’ who break the law; 2) defending free and fair elections; and 3) shaping long-term strategy to ‘defeat autocracy.’

In practice, the Fund’s communications appear to heavily focus on opposing and building political opposition to a wide-variety of initiatives by the Trump Administration,” Comer said in a letter to Eisen. “The Committee’s request for information, however, specifically focuses on activities undertaken by the Fund to advance private financial interests that appear only loosely related to the Fund’s official stated purpose.”

SDDF appeared to advance the political interests of various unions

The Committee has requested documents that “appear to advance or target” private financial interests, including Apple, the proposed Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery merger, various unions, and the law firm Platkin LLP, a boutique law firm started by former New Jersey Attorney General Matt Platkin, who served under Democrat Gov. Phil Murphy.

Referring to the Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery merger, Comer noted that a letter opposing the proposed merger quoted Eisen as saying, “The future of free media and a strong entertainment industry in America is at stake here,” and warned that the merger would “erode the very bedrock of our democracy.” Yet, as Comer alleged, the letter only mentioned democracy once, when referring to the view that “Competition is essential for a healthy economy and a healthy democracy.”

Comer also suggested the group’s targeting of Apple was a “seemingly arbitrary attack” on the company over a gift to President Donald Trump. In other instances, SDDF appeared to advance the interests of various unions, including the Communications Workers of America, United Automobile, and Agricultural Implement Workers of America.

Comer: “Working on a pay-to-play basis”

“Through these actions, the Committee is concerned the charitable non-profit organization you lead may—possibly without the IRS’ awareness—be working on a pay-to-play basis to unethically and illegally ingratiate itself to donors and/or potential donors by taking more than incidental actions to advance their private financial interests. Indeed, 501(c)(3) entities are deemed to not be organized for a charitable purpose if they devote a substantial part of their activities to lobbying efforts and advancing private financial or other business interests are not among the legitimate purposes of a charitable organization organized under section 501(c)(3) if [sic] the Internal Revenue Code,” Comer wrote to Eisen.

The latest announcement is part of a larger investigation by the House Oversight Committee, which began on February 14, 2024, seeking information on whether the IRS had not enforced tax laws for certain activist groups engaged in political lobbying.

The investigation into the Eisen nonprofit follows a Just the News article about another nonprofit started by the former ambassador: The States United Democracy Center (SUDC). Eisen left SUDC at the end of 2024, but while he was there, the group targeted conservatives who questioned the validity and irregularities of the 2020 election. The organization was able to do so with the aid of Democrat attorneys general across the country, who essentially deputized the organization to help prosecute Trump supporters.

June 17, 2026 – President Trump suspends DNI nomination and FISA support, pending Save America Act

Delivering a statement via Truth Social returning from the G7 in France.  President Trump has suspended the nomination of SDNY U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton, cancelling Wednesday afternoon’s SSCI hearing on the nomination.

The late-night timing appears to be due to President Trump focused on the G7 discussions and now turns his focus back to the domestic agenda; DNI, Save America Act and FISA (702) reauthorization.

President Trump outlines in the Truth Social post that FISA (702) renewal must be attached to the Save America Act, and Jay Clayton’s replacement, Jamie McDonald, must be confirmed to replace Clayton in the SDNY prior to the DNI nomination moving forward. This position puts Bill Pulte’s appointment as Acting DNI back into the mix.

VIA TRUTH SOCIAL – “The Republicans agreed with Dumocrats to remove very fair, and talented, William Pulte, from serving as Acting DNI in return for getting FISA approved by the Dumocrats. However, the Republicans moved so fast with the hearings of the Great Jay Clayton, current U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, that Pulte would be gone before the Dumocrats would vote on FISA.

Now, the Dumocrats are saying they will vote against FISA — So, the Republicans wound up having fulfilled their commitment, but Dumocrats broke the Deal.

In addition, the newly nominated U.S. Attorney, Jamie McDonald, must be confirmed and blue slipped. Because of the ridiculous views of Republicans on blue slipping (Dumocrats are often willing to nix it), I may not be able to get the extraordinary Sullivan & Cromwell Partner, Jamie, approved, and I don’t want to take Jay Clayton away from the great job he is doing until Jamie is in place.

Therefore, to add a slight bit of intrigue but, for the Good of the Nation, and the People of our Country, I will not approve FISA without THE SAVE AMERICA ACT going along with it. Not complicated, actually, the Republicans fell into a trap.

Regarding the approval of our Great Patriot, Jay Clayton, we are cancelling the Senate Hearing RE: DNI today, and will not be going forward until Jamie McDonald is approved to be U.S. Attorney. In the meantime, Bill Pulte will remain as the Acting Director of National Intelligence. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”

~ President DONALD J. TRUMP

None of these back-and-forth moves would be necessary if Republican Senate Majority Leader John Thune were aligned with the Republican President. Alas, with Thune representing a dysfunctional wing of a Senate UniParty, his priorities are in alignment against the President.

This was where things stood with Thune before the Truth Social post (prompted).

In a note of irony, I think we can all thank John Cornyn for this outcome and response by President Trump. John Cornyn told AG nominee Todd Blanche he was withholding support until the DOJ gave him Trump family tax information.

However, John Cornyn was very happy with Jay Clayton and FISA renewal.

(Conservative Treehouse, 6/17/2026)  (Archive)

The second, seemingly unrelated story that unfolded right as FISA expired, was barely reported anywhere. On Friday, without any fanfare, the White House issued a dense, technical directive —it’s like an Executive Order– that was blandly titled, “National Security Presidential Memorandum NSPM-12.”

NPSM-12, known only by its acronym, could potentially be one of the most significant intelligence reorganizations in modern history. We don’t know much, since there was no press conference or signing ceremony for this one. They just slipped it in. The corporate media looked the other way. Trade media was less sanguine:

Remember how DOGE worked on a technical level? DOGE agents invaded every major federal agency and office. They linked all the important databases. They synchronized all the critical records. They mapped the payments, contracts, recipients, approvers, and contractors. They forced the big agencies to standardize on a single email platform. Throughout 2025, they fought and won lawsuits to link Social Security, Treasury, Medicaid, and ICE, so checks won’t go out to dead people, and illegals can’t get welfare or tax refunds.

In other words, DOGE tied federal agency databases together, providing the White House with a level of real-time visibility that had never existed before. In particular, DOGE made it possible to follow the money. Over about twelve months, years of deeply buried activity became a searchable evidence trail. Now, DOGE systems empower Trump’s Fraud Task Force. That’s why Democrats fought DOGE so hard.

🔥 NSPM-12 just launched the same transparency process, but this time for the intelligence agencies. The memo “is different than what we usually see,” NextGov advised. Instead of “wiggle room, vague timelines, and the ‘consistent with applicable law’ language that gives everyone room to slow walk implementation, there are named officials. Hard deadlines. A governance body with actual authority to issue binding directives.”

In other words, a control architecture.

Writ large, NPSM-12 places all national security systems under the authority of a single agency, the NSA, for cybersecurity purposes. This makes superficial sense in an age when AI chatbots are racing toward a quantum singularity that could crack any existing encryption.

But some of the NSPM’s related powers could also challenge the standard operating procedures of all clandestine work. One wonky analysis of the order said, “Agencies will be required to maintain annual inventories of all National Security Systems under their control.” And, the NSA “will be able to issue emergency directives requiring agencies to take immediate action, to protect sensitive networks.”

The first example that sprang to mind was the FBI’s alleged “Prohibited Access” files— the Bureau’s second set of books-off-the-books that Kash Patel’s team uncovered. NSPM-12 would have disclosed its existence. The parts of that dark-file system that were electronically stored, searched, transmitted, encrypted, cross-loaded, or hidden within FBI infrastructure— they now fall under the NSA’s brand-new role as National Manager.

That means the FBI’s so-secret-the-secret-is-secret prohibited access system must be inventoried, logged, audited, secured, and surfaced. Assuming the other agencies are pursuing the same “prohibited access” angle (why wouldn’t they?), it will be devastating for generations of deep state skunkworks.

June 16, 2026 – Updated: Feds unseal indictment charging 15 Minneapolis Antifa militants; chaos erupts outside courthouse

All hell broke loose on Tuesday afternoon outside the federal courthouse in St. Paul, Minnesota, after federal prosecutors indicted 15 members of Antifa.

As TGP’s Cassandra MacDonald reported earlier Tuesday, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Minnesota unsealed a federal indictment charging 15 defendants over their alleged roles in two Minneapolis-based Antifa groups that violently opposed the enforcement of federal immigration law during Operation Metro Surge.

“Today, a federal indictment was unsealed charging 15 defendants with conspiracy to impede or injure federal officers and other charges related to efforts of two Minneapolis-based ANTIFA groups that violently opposed the enforcement of federal law in our state.”

WATCH:

“Working closely with the U.S. Attorney’s Office, our investigation uncovered extensive planning, material support, and coordinated attacks against federal personnel and facilities,” DHS special agent Michael McCarthy said.

“It is not optional – we will enforce the law. Any attempt to undermine it through violence or intimidation will be met with DECISIVE ACTION,” Homeland Security Special Agent in Charge Michael McCarthy said.

WATCH:

UPDATE 6/18/2026:

(…) US Attorney for Minnesota Daniel Rosen announced that the defendants are allegedly involved with Twin Cities Direct Action, later renamed Direct Action Minnesota, or “DAMN,” a collective that organizes anti-ICE operations across the Minneapolis area. The 94-page indictment alleges the cell trained extremists in surveillance, rapid mobilization, shield tactics, blockade operations, and methods designed to interfere with federal immigration enforcement.
The indictment also identifies the Black Cat Workers Collective, a Minneapolis-based Antifa affinity group, as a key component of the network. The group promotes militant tactics, physical confrontation, and revolutionary political objectives while organizing actions against ICE and law enforcement, according to prosecutors.

Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) conducted home raids on Tuesday morning and took 12 of the 15 defendants into custody. Two defendants remain at large, and another defendant was already in jail.
The defendants have been charged with conspiracy to impede or injure federal agents and officers, alleging they worked together from January through June 2026 to prevent ICE and other Department of Homeland Security personnel from carrying out federal duties.

The defendants named in the indictment include:

  • Isaac Auman Sant, aka “Isaac Datto,” “Ike”
  • Emmett James Doyle, aka “Plotnikov”
  • Cameron Kennedy, aka “Cam,” “Olive Knife,” “Knife”
  • Callum Robinet, aka “Juliet K,” “Juliet,” “Cal”
  • Erik Davis, aka “Erico”
  • Brian Stillwell Apland, aka “Tiny”
  • Kyle Wagner, aka “Kaos”

June 16, 2026 – SPLC boss funneled $1.2 million to lover in neo-Nazi group and had a joint bank account

A top Southern Poverty Law Center official is accused of helping funnel $1.2 million in donor money to an informant in the National Alliance white supremacist group — who was also allegedly her lover.

The Department of Justice filed a superseding indictment against the SPLC accusing it of funneling donor cash to hate groups they were then telling donors they were fighting.

One figure, referred to as “Employee-2” in the indictment, is described as a “person who would become Director of the SPLC’s Intelligence Project.”

Former top SPLC official Heidi Beirich is believed to be “Employee-2” in the federal indictment against the bloated anti-hate nonprofit. (Credit: Getty Images)

It also describes how “Employee-2” wrote an article based on material stolen from National Alliance headquarters in 2014 and then paid off an informant to take the blame for the robbery.

Based on the details in the June 2 superseding indictment, “Employee-2” is believed to be Heidi Beirich, a 58-year-old fascism expert who was the director of intelligence at the Alabama-based anti-extremism nonprofit between 2012 and 2019.

The indictment alleges Beirich was very close to the informant known only as “F-9” who “infiltrated the neo-Nazi organization National Alliance.”

“[Beirich] was also in a romantic relationship with F-9. During this relationship, [Beirich] and F-9 shared a house and two bank accounts,” the indictment alleges.

“Between 2015 and 2021, approximately $140,000 in donors’ money flowed from the SPLC operating account … and was ultimately deposited into the joint bank accounts held by F-9 and [Beirich].

“This amounted to approximately 66% of all money ever deposited into their joint bank accounts. [Beirich] then used donors’ money to pay the couple’s personal living expenses.”

The indictment also claims that while getting paid by the SPLC, the unnamed informant was also raising money for the National Alliance and helping to “carry out its extremist activities.”

The indictment describes how a source broke into National Alliance’s headquarters in West Virginia in 2014 and “stole approximately 25 boxes of documents,” took them over state lines into North Carolina and copied them, before returning the originals.

In 2015, Beirich wrote an article allegedly based on the stolen materials for her group’s “Hatewatch” section of its website. That article, “Chaos at the Compound,” is still available.

The indictment then describes how the SPLC tried to cover up who their informant was by paying a second informant “approximately $6,000” to take responsibility for the burglary. (Read more: New York Post, 6/16/2026)  (Archive)

June 16, 2026 – Fulton judge rules SOS can secretly compile voting results despite Georgia election law

Judge Melynee Leftridge

ATLANTA, GA. JUNE 16, 2026 – Fulton County Superior Court Judge Melynee Leftridge issued an order Friday allowing Secretary of State (SOS) Brad Raffensperger to continue compiling election results from a secret bunker on Election Night. The order, effective for tonight’s runoff, was issued in response to a mandamus claim brought by candidates Greg Dolezal, Keli Gambrill and Chris Mora to force the SOS to comply with Georgia law.

Georgia law states:

“Superintendents, poll officers, and other officials engaged in the conducting of primaries and elections held under this chapter shall perform their duties in public.” O.C.G.A. § 21-2-406

However, Judge Leftridge noted in her order:

“And the term ‘other officials engaged in the conducting of primaries and elections’ does not expand those definitions nor does it apply to the Secretary of State”:

Judge Leftridge went on to claim:

“…the unrebutted credible testimony presented regarding the issue from the Elections Director indicates that central aggregation is not a duty the Secretary of State performs under the Georgia Election Code.”

However, even if he said that, Georgia State Election Director Blake Evans is not an attorney and is not allowed to make a legal conclusion.

Furthermore, Georgia law clearly defines the verification, aggregation, and publishing activities performed in the bunker on Election Night as a duty of the SOS, which includes:

(6) To receive from the superintendent the returns of primaries and elections and to canvass and compute the votes cast for candidates and upon questions, as required by this chapter; …” O.C.G.A. § 21-2-50(6)

Leftridge is now the second Fulton County judge in two months who allowed Raffensperger to operate above the law during Georgia elections. On May 4, 2026, Judge Belinda Edwards issued an order allowing Raffensperger to reject a challenge to his candidacy without routing it to an Administrative Court hearing as required by Georgia law. O.C.G.A. §21-2-5(b).

The Georgia Emergency Management Agency operates the bunker in metro Atlanta for state emergency purposes. No Georgia counties aggregate precinct election results in secret. Attorney David Oles, who represents the candidates, stated he will appeal the decision to pursue transparency for all voters in the November General Election.

VoterGA is a non-partisan, 501(c)3 registered non-profit organization created by a coalition of citizens working to restore election integrity in Georgia. We advocate for independently verifiable, auditable, recount capable, transparent, and tamper-proof elections.

June 16, 2026 – The deep state media is publishing fake news about Trump’s Iran deal

The 14-point draft memorandum that Bloomberg News obtained and published on or around June 16, 2026 (article titled “Read the 14-Point Draft Memorandum Between the US and Iran”). Bloomberg describes it as “the text of the 14-point draft memorandum, as seen by Bloomberg News.” It is not an officially released government document from the US or Iran — it is a draft/near-final version they obtained and reported on.

Bloomberg’s reported draft of the interim US-Iran MOU/framework. That’s the main “text” circulating and being debated. It is not an officially authenticated final MOU,

PSA:
When you see EVERY paid “influencer” on X suddenly unite and flip on President @realDonaldTrump
over a supposed “LEAKED comprehensive plan” that is still being created with regional partners — and a final agreement that hasn’t even been formulated yet……

Especially right after @VP goes on a highly publicized #MSM press tour hitting @TheView and
@MegynKellyShow

IT’S AN OP.

Most likely one designed for the enemy, not #MAGA:
“What is the common theme when bad news is about to break (against them)?”

SOMETHING ABOUT TO HAPPEN?
STAY VIGILANT.

Surrounding Middle East countries are taking control of their own region. We accomplished our mission — a weak, frail, denuclearized IRGC no longer controls the region using fear & terrorism. President @realDonaldTrump is handing any decisions about Iran’s economic future & regional stability over to the more than 200 countries in the Middle East who have a vested interest in a new, prosperous Iran.

Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Pakistan, Turkey, Egypt, Jordan, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Israel & many others.

Are people blind?!! Trump has had this in the works for damn near a decade!

JUST IN: Was just on a media briefing call with a senior US officials who confirm the MOU with Iran has been signed and outlines the following from their POV:

“In general terms, the deal says if you’re willing to behave like a normal country, we’re willing to treat you like a normal country. It’s performance based.”

– Strait of Hormuz is open, but it will take a few weeks to get travel back to normal.

– A signing ceremony on Friday in Geneva including JD Vance, Jared Kushner, Steve Witkoff, and others, and a large Iranian contigent.

– The official stressed that we’re here not just because of the last 1.5 years of the Trump administration, but because of the first 4 as well. The sanctions pressures built up and they believe created leverage.

– The reason negotiations have been “very fruitful” was because of the “degredation of [Iran’s] economy” and the “scattering of their government which created a lot of internal pressure.”

– There a significant new communication channels. The official describes the initial Islamabad meeting as very fruitful, despite not resulting in a deal. It laid the groundwork.

– Operation Project Freedom has been an “unsung hero” in this, resulting in over 7 million barrels of oil a day. That increased US leverage.

– The nuclear talks are described as “technical” in terms of how to retrieve the enriched uranium.

– Stressed this is not “pay for play.” They will not get access to markets or release of their funds just for showing up for a meeting.

– There are “fascinating” internal political dynamics playing out in Iran. There are constituencies that want different things. Iran, by all accounts, should be incredibly wealthy.

– “We go in very clear-eyed” that Iran has been a bad faith actor in negotiations for 47 years: “Everything will be verified… all released assets and sanction relief is tied to milestones.”

– The US will keep the current military force posture for now to make sure Iran “does what they say they’re going to do.” The deal contemplates a partial draw down upon the signing of the nuclear deal.”

– “One of the aspects of the negotiation that was actually easier than others was the nuclear, because they need our technical expertise to get the dust out.”

– Iran would probably love to have a nuclear weapon, but they know US intelligence is so precise that they can’t do it in secret and the threat of force is now realized.

– The Gulf States generally love this deal. They saw the JCPOA as empowering Iran to be a bad actor. They see this as a regional deal that pressures Iran to behave and bring stability to the entire region.

– “The full deal will be published soon, but we’re still in the building trust phase.”

Why is Trump waiting to put out the details of the new Iran peace deal?

The media is desperately trying to paint it in the worst possible light.

Predictable.

Do you think the “timing” of the peace deal with Iran is just a coincidence?

Just a coincidence that Trump would attend the G-7 summit right AFTER he announces that Iran agreed to a peace deal?

Why not immediately announce the details?

The Art of War.

Going back to the early 80’s, Iran has been painted as our biggest enemy.
A rogue nation fomenting terrorism and war in the Middle East.
A rogue nation that was also building nuclear weapons.

Our entire history is a lie.

While past presidents and politicians painted Iran’s regime as our sworn enemy, they were ALWAYS funding and arming them.
Proxy wars in the Middle East kept taxpayers money flowing.
Stolen and laundered into our leaders and their puppet masters bank accounts.

George H.W. Bush created this “illusion” of Iran, while at the same time arming them.

Iran Contra.

Here’s what was really exposed and swept under the rug:
————-
“Congress found out about the secret deal and then discovered at least 280 million dollars in secret Swiss bank accounts belonging to the CIA and did nothing about it. This money was outside of Congressional control, and the CIA could use it for whatever they wanted to. This removed all Congressional control or oversight.”

“Why would Congress allow them to get away with this?”
————
The Iran Contra hearings were a “charade.”

While everyone focused on the question of whether or not we should have been arming the Contras and fighting communism….
The real scandal was that the CIA, through Vice President Bush’s office, was secretly funding the CIA outside of Congressional oversight.

But here’s another big lie from history about Iran:

Remember the Beirut bombing?

Excerpt from my article:
—————-
“They had definitive proof that Iran was behind the attack on the Marine barracks that killed 241 Americans.”

“Doesn’t that raise a huge question that nobody seems to be asking?”

“If we knew Iran was behind the killing of 241 Marines, why would we be negotiating to sell arms to them just one year later?”

“You know the answer.”

“It was far more important to protect the drug trade through Nicaragua than it was to protect our Marines. It was also far more important for the CIA to be allowed to control the information flowing to the entire executive branch.”

“They were sacrificed.”

June 17, 2026 – Report: Epstein tried to offer prosecutors dirt on Trump for a deal, but didn’t actually have anything on him

Let’s all take a minute to remember the time when everyone was telling us that Trump and Epstein were besties and that this would be the scandal that finally brought Trump down.

This report is just another in the stack of evidence that Trump and Epstein were more like enemies rather than friendly acquaintances.

From Forbes:

Jeffrey Epstein’s attorneys were in discussions with prosecutors before his death about potentially trying to get him a more lenient sentence if he gave up information that could help them in other cases, The New York Times reported Tuesday — with notes suggesting Epstein wanted to pass along information about President Donald Trump.

Epstein’s whole thing was using underage girls to trap rich and influential people in blackmail schemes.

He knew that Trump was hated by the establishment, so he tried to entice his jailers with the possibility of dirt on the president.

But, guess what, nothing happened!

The New York Post has even more details:

Child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein tried to dig up dirt on President Trump in a desperate bid for leniency in the days leading up to his suicide, but was unable to deliver anything of substance, according to a report.

Epstein became fixated on the president after he was arrested in 2019, as his lawyers tried to hammer out a deal with prosecutors if the disgraced financier could provide helpful information about other defendants, according to the New York Times.

During his many marathon meetings with his parade of lawyers while he was locked up in a federal jail in Lower Manhattan, Epstein often had his nose buried in a legal pad scrawling disjointed one-liners about the commander-in-chief, such as ‘Trump is a total con artist — smoke & mirrors’ and ‘Never had money.’

The best dirt Epstein had on Trump was … that he isn’t really as rich as he claims?

Honestly, this sounds more like your Trump-Deranged aunt than it does a criminal mastermind.

His scribblings also included grousing about the difficulties he endured as a wealthy ‘Pedophile in jail,’ which he claimed included being denied phone calls and visits, according to the outlet.

(…) Since Trump’s return to the White House in 2025, political opponents who spent four years forgetting that Epstein ever existed have suddenly morphed into Torquemada-level fanatics about the affairs of the late, unlamented Epstein.

As usual for the left, the goal has nothing to do with the truth — Epstein’s associates were overwhelmingly leftish (even if you leave Bill Clinton out of it), and his political contributions all leaned decidedly in the Democratic direction.

The aim of the left instead is to try to link Epstein and his evil to Trump in any way imaginable — to make it appear the two men were friends and that Trump is somehow tainted with Epstein’s crimes. But the magazine report does exactly the opposite.

In fact, Trump’s name comes up only five times in the report’s nearly 150 paragraphs, twice as a means of establishing another person’s identity (former Trump adviser Steve Bannon, former Trump Attorney General Robert Barr), and three times in phrases that make it clear Epstein was anything but a friend of the man who’s now in the Oval Office.

In one paragraph describing the methodology behind the mammoth report, the article stated:

“We obtained about a dozen pages of other notes handwritten by Epstein in jail that were also previously unseen — including some in which he tried and failed to come up with significant information he might have on Donald Trump to offer to prosecutors,” the report stated. (Emphasis added.)

In another paragraph, buried deep in the report, the article notes that:

“His attorneys discussed with federal prosecutors the prospect of a proffer: giving them information that might be useful in other cases in exchange for the possibility of some leniency in his own. Epstein was particularly preoccupied with what he might have on Donald Trump, who was then serving his first term in office. Jotting on a legal pad, he returned to the president again and again, trying to dredge up anything to offer prosecutors. But his scribblings — ‘Trump is a total con artist — smoke & mirrors’ and ‘Never had money’— suggest that he could come up with little that wasn’t already known.” (Emphasis added.)

Handwritten Epstein Notes Found, Confirm He Wanted to Hurt Trump as Badly as Possible, Wasn’t Friend at All

June 17, 2026 – A Chicago cross burning hate hoax is committed by an Asian, anti-Trump leftist; put a MAGA hat on top of cross

(…) “University of Illinois Chicago senior Merlin Lu said he knew the implications of a burning cross and had placed a MAGA hat atop the cross, explaining his motivation was to protest Trump administration injustice — not something racist,” reports local media.

The 21-year-old admits he “did know about this historical relevance beforehand.” Then he claims, “I didn’t know the severity, how racially motivated it may seem from what I did.”

You’re in college at the height of the Woke Era and you’re claiming to not understand how visceral the sight of burning cross is? Please, son.

Merlin Lu

The far-left cross burner added that “he was protesting what he calls MAGA Christian nationalist supporters and the Trump administration ‘ruling class.’”

When asked how he spent all those years in college and still failed to learn what a burning cross meant, Lu said: “I just saw the Wikipedia page with the movie with the, like, I think it’s called like ‘Under One Nation,’ or something like that.”

Nobody believes that.

I also don’t believe his claim that he put a MAGA hat at the top of the cross to make it clear he was protesting Trump. I think he put the hat there to frame Trump supporters, never expecting to get caught by cameras as he ran from the scene.

(…) Sounds like Merlin Lu might make a perfect executive director of the SPLC.

You know, if we could eliminate the Democrat Party’s hate hoaxes and close down the demonic SPLC, that might put a permanent end to racism in America.

June 17, 2026 – A Rape Gang Inquiry Report claims mostly Pakistani grooming gangs operated in 149 UK local authority areas since the 1950’s

Inquiry highlights Britain’s treatment of grooming gangs as a series of local scandals when they were actually a national phenomenon

An independent report into group-based child sexual exploitation has claimed that organised grooming networks operated in at least 149 local authority areas across the United Kingdom, raising fresh questions about the true scale of the abuse and whether it was treated for too long as a series of isolated scandals rather than a national problem.

The findings were published by the non-statutory Rape Gang Inquiry, a separate initiative established by campaigners and parliamentarians. Its executive summary argues that organised abuse networks operated across a far wider geographical area than previously acknowledged, with victims allegedly trafficked between towns and cities over several decades.

The report’s authors contend that public attention has often focused on a handful of high-profile cases in places such as Rotherham, Rochdale and Telford, while failing to recognise what they describe as a much broader pattern of offending across the country.

Why the Inquiry Says the Problem Was National

According to the report, evidence gathered from court records, witness testimonies and previous investigations suggests organised exploitation occurred in at least 149 local authority districts.

The inquiry argues that offenders frequently operated across local authority boundaries, moving victims between different towns and cities and exploiting weaknesses in communication between police forces, social services and other agencies.

Its authors claim this allowed abuse networks to avoid detection for extended periods and contributed to repeated safeguarding failures. The report describes grooming gangs as a national issue rather than a collection of disconnected local scandals.

However, the figure of 149 local authority areas has not been independently verified by the government’s ongoing statutory inquiry, which is continuing to gather evidence using its formal investigative powers. (Read more: International Business Times, 6/16/2026)  (Archive)

A few of you will know that I am one of the girls who contributed evidence to the @rapeganginquiry report released earlier today.

I initially hid my identity because I never intended to speak about it in public or for anyone to know the horror of what I experienced.

But I feel it is now time that people understood what is driving me so hard in this fight.

I don’t need to go into details. I’m sure everyone gets the gist by now. I believe the time for talking is done; now is the time for action.

The GE 2029 is the last real opportunity we have to save our country and ensure the protection and preservation of our people.

A @RestoreBritain government will reverse the damage done to our society by repealing destructive laws, shunning ideological obscenities, and deporting those who seek to do us harm.

And this is just for starters.

It is therefore incumbent on every British man and woman to now stand and defend our nation by backing the only political solution we have left.

If we stay united in this, if we stay focused and undeterred, there is no doubt in my mind about what comes next.

We will win.

And together, as a nation, we will
@RestoreBritain. 🫡 🇬🇧

June 17, 2026 – Senator Ron Johnson: Biden health officials purposely turned a blind eye toward COVID-19 vaccine safety signals

On April 29, 2026, as Chairman of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, I held a hearing and released a report titled “Unmasked: How Biden Health Officials Purposely Turned a Blind Eye Toward COVID-19 Vaccine Safety Signals.” There has not been a bigger government scandal during my lifetime, and yet even now that we have documented proof of corruption, most of the legacy media refuses to report on it.

Peter Marks (Credit: public domain)

My report details how in March 2021, Peter Marks — director of the FDA center that approves vaccines and is responsible for safety surveillance (CBER) — was briefed that the algorithm they were using to analyze the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) would mask or hide COVID-19 vaccine adverse event safety signals. Twenty-six days later, using an updated algorithm, senior FDA officials were shown 25 safety signals, including sudden cardiac death, pulmonary infarction, cerebral artery occlusion, basal ganglia stroke, agonal rhythm, and Bell’s palsy.

For the next three months, they received updates showing more serious safety signals. Instead of warning or informing the public, they ordered the data analyst to “cease and desist” and then lied to the American public that “they weren’t seeing safety signals” and that any adverse events were “rare and mild.” The whole point of using sophisticated algorithms to analyze VAERS is to find needles in the haystack — nonobvious potential harms that doctors and patients should be alerted to.

With the COVID-19 injections, we didn’t need sophisticated algorithms. The sheer volume of adverse event reports overwhelming VAERS was enough to trigger my oversight efforts. We faced impenetrable stonewalling until Secretary Kennedy’s commitment to radical transparency provided my Subcommittee with 11 million pages of documents. The documents make clear that FDA and CDC officials did not use an “err on the side of caution” standard to alert the public. Rather, they insisted on definitive proof of causation — a standard they knew would never be met.

They were far more concerned about not causing vaccine hesitancy than they were about informing the public of adverse events. They wanted to ensure that the injections would receive full licensure approval so that President Biden could mandate them to the military and millions of civilians, including healthy college students.

Perhaps the most egregious coercion involved healthy children who had virtually zero chance of serious harm from COVID-19. That coercion was based on another false claim that the injections would stop transmission. Some children were killed and others have been permanently disabled from the COVID-19 injections. Imagine being the parent who believed all the lies they were told and decided to have their now deceased or injured child injected.

Avindra Nath (Credit: Time)

Also in March 2021, Dr. Avindra Nath, clinical director at the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), began leading a team of clinical researchers who were diagnosing and treating individuals with serious COVID-19 injection injuries. Twenty-three study participants were diagnosed and treated, then instructed to “not talk about the study” until the NIH could release its findings and conclusions. Dr. Nath maintained that early recognition and intervention were crucial for effective treatment. Yet no guidance was provided to physicians — one participant remarked that the NIH scientists had “taken the data and left us hanging.”

Adding insult to injury, in April 2021 the CDC published a report stating that similar adverse events were “anxiety” — not a problem with the shots. It was not until study participants began speaking publicly in 2022 that the NIH quietly posted its study on a preprint server that virtually no one read, leaving medical teams nationwide in the dark and the injection-injured left untreated.

We will never know the full extent of the harms (or the benefits) of the COVID-19 injections. But we do know that federal health officials were aware that serious harm was being done within months of them granting Emergency Use Authorization. We also know that those same officials turned a blind eye toward the safety signals that were screaming at them, but they refused to warn the public. The public pays federal health officials to evaluate drugs for safety and efficacy, and we have the right to be informed.

How many deaths and injuries could have been avoided had federal health officials simply done the job we paid them to do?

Currently, VAERS shows 1,676,100 cumulative worldwide adverse events and 39,099 deaths associated with the COVID-19 injection, with 9,332 (24%) of the deaths occurring within 2 days of injection. Most of these tragic adverse events occurred well after federal health officials should have informed the public about the risks they knew existed. Instead, they hid or downplayed those risks. As a result, millions were harmed after being denied their right to fully informed consent.

That’s why I consider this to be the biggest government scandal in my lifetime, and one that is crying out for full media attention and coverage.

June 17, 2026 – Canadian PM Mark Carney warns of a “global rupture” as the post–Cold War rules-based order breaks down

Ahead of the G7 in Evian, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney warned of a “global rupture” as the post–Cold War rules-based order breaks down, a claim the episode argues was underscored by Donald Trump’s summit remarks suggesting Syria should handle Hezbollah if Israel cannot without “killing everyone else,” and criticizing Israel’s actions in Lebanon.

The script says Trump’s approach reflects a sovereignty-based foreign policy that bypasses imperial proxies and multilateral institutions, highlighted by direct engagement with “the full spectrum” of the Iranian system to secure an Iran memorandum of understanding and by prioritizing Gulf leaders in public time.

It argues the real target is dismantling the “terror premium” on oil tied to Strait of Hormuz threats, and portrays Europe’s Ukraine pledges as unfunded, citing Britain’s defense leadership resignations over lack of money, fueling Carney’s alarm.

June 18, 2026 – Tulsi Gabbard releases new documents that prove Fauci funded Wuhan Lab research that sparked COVID

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Fauci worked with politicized career leadership in the Intelligence Community (IC) to suppress the truth about his actions, the virus’ lab-leak origins, and his role in directing U.S. funding for this dangerous research that caused immeasurable harm and countless lost lives. These documents expose Fauci’s direct role in influencing and manipulating IC assessments on COVID-19, and how Fauci lied to Congress in 2024, when under oath he denied knowledge of or participation in discussions with intelligence officials about viral research.

The materials released today are a result of DNI Gabbard’s yearlong declassification review in support of President Trump’s maximum transparency mandate.

COVID-19 Release Index
COVID-19 Release Part 1
COVID-19 Release Part 2
COVID-19 Release Part 3
COVID-19 Release Part 4

HOLY CRAP! DNI Tulsi Gabbard has shocked the deep state by on her last day in office releasing bombshell files that Dr. Fauci used TAX DOLLARS to fund the WUHAN LAB responsible for COVID and millions of deaths

And he purposefully covered it up.

HE LIED TO CONGRESS! Fauci deserves charges!

Tulsi is a patriot 🇺🇸

“Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth.”

“Dr. Fauci was the behind-the-scenes advisor who, alongside his hand-picked so-called experts, pushed the intelligence community to endorse a natural animal origin to hide his dangerous gain of function research that he funded using taxpayer dollars.”

“All of this in a deliberate attempt to cover up the truth and shift the blame and attention away from Fauci’s own actions.”

“The tactics that were used to hide the truth are straight from the Deep State playbook. Politicized self-serving leaders, like Dr. Fauci, covered up their own wrongdoing and abuses of power, manipulated intelligence, lied to Congress, and undermined a duly elected president by restricting his access to the vital facts he needed to keep the country safe.”

Little has been said about the Intelligence Community covering up for Fauci:

June 18, 2026 – 15 illegal aliens are charged in Boston for defrauding public benefits systems; Americans “boxed out” of collecting their own benefits due to ID theft

Assistant Attorney General Colin McDonald on today’s fraud crackdown announcement in Boston:

“Illegal immigration carries real and substantial costs to American taxpayers and places enormous strain on our public benefits systems. And the further we look, the more fraud we find. Under the leadership of @POTUS, @VP, Acting Attorney General @DAGToddBlanche, and the @WHFraudTF, @TheJusticeDept and our fraud-fighting partners are aggressively pursuing fraud no matter how small, no matter how big, and no matter how hard. We will follow the facts and the law to bring criminal actors to justice, regardless of the perpetrator’s citizenship, immigration status, position or title.”

Justice Department CHARGES 11 ILLEGAL ALIENS Among 15 in $1.4M Benefit Fraud Crackdown in Massachusetts

“These cases highlight a broader, deeply troubling pattern: the exploitation of America’s safety-net by illegal aliens,” said Assistant Attorney General Colin McDonald. “Fraud by illegal aliens carries real and substantial costs to American taxpayers and places enormous strain on our public benefits systems. The Fraud Division remains laser-focused on rooting out fraud — whether committed by illegal aliens or anyone else — and recovering money wrongfully taken from the American people.”

NOW: It’s been confirmed that ILLEGAL ALIENS are being allowed to obtain taxpayer-funded welfare in blue states — which then lets them get welfare from ADDITIONAL PROGRAMS because they got their foot in the door with STOLEN AMERICAN IDENTITIES

DEMOCRATS SAID IT DOESN’T HAPPEN!

AAG COLIN MCDONALD: “Illegal aliens stealing the identities of Americans to then steal from America. 11 of the 15 charged defendants are suspected to be unlawfully present in the United States.”

“They would assume the identities of Americans and then go to the various benefit programs to sign up for these programs and once they got in the door with one program, that then opened up the buffet of benefit programs to them such that they could receive benefits with respect to food, housing, disability, health care, and the full range of benefits.”

June 18, 2026 – The Covid cover-up ran through Xavier Becerra’s office

California Democrats just handed their gubernatorial nomination to a man whose pandemic-era résumé includes a role the party would prefer voters never examine: he was the place where the truth about COVID-19’s origins was sent to be quietly buried.

That is the picture that emerges from the trove of records Tulsi Gabbard declassified on her way out the door as Director of National Intelligence. Among the documents her office released on June 18 is correspondence describing how a whistleblower complaint, one alleging that the Intelligence Community believed COVID escaped from the Wuhan Institute of Virology and that Dr. Anthony Fauci had misled Congress about it, was routed away from an independent watchdog and onto the desk of then-Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, the very official to whom Fauci answered.

An August 19, 2021 letter from ODNI General Counsel Chris Fonzone to Gabbard’s Biden-era predecessor, Avril Haines, lays out the maneuver in the bloodless prose of government memos. Reviewers concluded the complaint concerned exchanges between Fauci and Sen. Rand Paul, in which Fauci had insisted, under direct questioning, that “the NIH has not ever and does not now fund gain of function research in the Wuhan Institute.”

Paul gave him the chance to retract it. He refused. Then came the decisive sentence in the Fonzone memo.

We’ve thus updated the draft letter to note this point and to refer the complaint to Secretary Becerra, rather than the HHS IG.

Strip away the passive voice and the meaning is unmistakable. A complaint accusing Fauci of lying to the Senate was not handed to the HHS Inspector General, the office built to investigate precisely that kind of allegation. It was handed to Fauci’s own boss. The watchdog was bypassed in favor of the man with every institutional incentive to make the problem disappear.

And disappear it did. Whatever passed for Becerra’s review of the matter produced no reckoning for Fauci. It generated instead the debarment of EcoHealth Alliance and its president, Peter Daszak, the conduit through which NIH money reached the Wuhan lab. Daszak was cut off from federal funding for five years. He was the offering. Fauci, by contrast, walked away untouched, having later collected a preemptive pardon signed by Joe Biden’s autopen against any future liability.

Had that whistleblower been allowed to testify, the entire arc of the COVID story might have bent in a different direction, toward accountability rather than the years of credentialed obfuscation Americans were instead asked to swallow. The implications would have reached well beyond one bureaucrat’s reputation, touching the question of what Washington knew about a Chinese laboratory and when it knew it. Instead, the inconvenient account went to Becerra’s office and was never heard from again. (Read more: TruthBasedMedia, 6/20/2026)  (Archive)

GAVIN NEWSOM ACCUSED OF TAKING BRIBES & LAUNDERING MONEY TO HIS WIFE’S NGO🚨

• Blue Shield donated $20 million in September 2020. Months later, Newsom awarded them a $15 million no-bid contract.

• Kaiser Foundation donated $10 million in December 2020. By 2022, Newsom signed off on another no-bid contract for Kaiser to manage Medi-Cal.

• A tribe donated $500,000 in April 2024 and another $500,000 in April 2025 — right before Newsom’s office pushed to block a rival casino project.

The casino donations are especially troubling: They were reportedly laundered directly into Jennifer Siebel Newsom’s California Partners Project charity, at Gavin’s request.

This pattern looks like pay-to-play. Californians deserve full transparency and real accountability. No one should be above the law. 🇺🇸

Gavin Newsom solicited $340M in ‘behested payments’ from special interests, filings reveal

June 22, 2026 – Elon Musk calls for the arrest of Ro ‘the Robber’ Khanna after accusing Musk of “sentencing 4.5 million kids to death” from DOGE cuts

The US government has long operated as a bloated, inefficient machine riddled with waste, fraud, and abuse on a staggering scale. Trillions in national debt pile up while billions vanish yearly through improper payments, duplicative programs, no-bid contracts, and outright corruption — from Defense Department DEI training boondoggles to USAID grants funneled into bribery schemes worth hundreds of millions. Taxpayers foot the bill for consultants studying larval fish, outsourced research on SNAP eating habits, and foreign aid programs with minimal oversight that often enrich insiders or achieve little measurable good. This isn’t abstract “inefficiency”; it’s systemic rot that erodes trust and diverts resources from actual priorities.

DOGE, led by Elon Musk, has been the most aggressive effort in decades to shine a light on this rot and slash it. By auditing contracts, terminating wasteful spending, and exposing fraud (including major bribery cases inside USAID), DOGE has already saved tens of billions and dismantled layers of pointless bureaucracy that previous administrations ignored or protected. The cuts to bloated foreign aid programs like USAID targeted documented waste and corruption, not humanitarian needs writ large.

Yet instead of engaging with those facts, politicians like Rep. Ro Khanna respond with raw political spite. In the wake of DOGE’s reforms, Khanna has resorted to grotesque hyperbole — claiming Musk must be subpoenaed and investigated for “sentencing 4.5 million kids to death” over USAID reductions — while ignoring the very waste and fraud DOGE uncovered. This isn’t serious policy debate; it’s a personal vendetta against Musk’s success and the uncomfortable truth that much of the federal apparatus was (and remains) indefensible. The American people deserve efficiency and accountability, not emotional theater from those invested in preserving the status quo.

BREAKING: Elon Musk calls for the arrest of Ro ‘the Robber’ Khanna.

The U.S. Department of Justice announced that a USAID official and several executives pleaded guilty in a bribery scheme involving more than $550 million in contracts.

Yet Ro Khanna is claiming Elon should be investigated over DOGE spending cuts.

The standard applied by DOGE was very simple: if taxpayer money is being sent as aid, there should be a way to verify who received it and make sure the money isn’t being stolen or misused.

The DOJ is uncovering corruption connected to USAID contracts, Ro Khanna is attacking the person who pushed for transparency.

Elon simply asked where taxpayer money was going and whether it was actually reaching the people it was meant to help.

Ro “the Robber” Khanna should be in prison.

June 22, 2026 – Judge quashes federal subpoenas targeting Walz, Frey, Ellison, other MN leaders

Judge Patrick J. Schiltz (Credit: Wikipedia)

A federal judge has quashed grand jury subpoenas targeting several Minnesota officials, ruling the DOJ was attempting to “harass” state leaders over immigration policy enforcement.

The subpoenas targeted high-profile Minnesota officials including Governor Tim Walz, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, Attorney General Keith Ellison, and St. Paul Mayor Kaohly Her.

The subpoenas were served in January amid Operation Metro Surge in Minnesota.

(…) In January, the Department of Justice served grand jury subpoenas to six Minnesota offices, including the offices of Governor Tim Walz, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, Attorney General Keith Ellison, and St. Paul Mayor Kaohly Her. The Hennepin County Board of Commissioners, and the Ramsey County board were also targeted in the effort.

The subpoenas were reportedly part of an investigation into an alleged conspiracy to coerce or obstruct federal law enforcement during the Department of Homeland Security’s Operation Metro Surge in Minnesota. (Read more: Yahoo News, 6/22/2026)

June 23, 2026 – DOJ announces 455 defendants charged in 45 states since June 8 for over $6.5 billion in healthcare fraud

The Department of Justice on Tuesday announced that 455 defendants have been charged with stealing over $6.5 billion in healthcare fraud schemes across 45 states.

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche announced the results of the DOJ’s “2026 national health care fraud takedown” during a press conference on Tuesday.

He credited the work to the “greatest combined federal and state effort in combating health care fraud in history.”

“This team is working tirelessly to take down fraudsters who steal from taxpayer-funded programs and prey on vulnerable Americans,” he said. Blanche further highlighted the nine “health care fraud strike forces,” 57 US Attorney’s Offices, 41 state Attorney General’s offices, and multiple federal agencies involved in the busts.

Since June 8, Blanche announced, over $6.5 billion in health care fraud has been stopped, and over $182 million worth of cash and other assets have been seized.

WATCH:

Today we are announcing federal and state charges, all of which were charged or unsealed at some point over the past two weeks, the past 14 days, coordinated nationwide action. Since June 8, we’ve charged 455 defendants across 56, like I said a minute ago, US Attorney’s offices and 45 US states and territories. As alleged in the various indictments, these individuals participated in health care fraud schemes involving over $6.5 billion in false claims submitted to Medicare, Medicaid, and other health care programs. The team around me will get into more specifics, but here are a few points that stand out.

In one indictment, we’re bringing charges against a corporate executive in Arizona in connection to over a $1 billion fraud involving unnecessary wound grafts. This alleged scheme cost Medicare over $1 million per patient. In total, our indictment charges 11 defendants for over $2 billion in fraudulent claims in connection to alleged wound care scheBulgarie indictment also alleges that these individuals then used the taxpayer money to bankroll multi million-dollar homes, luxury vehicles, like $135,000 Maserati, jewelry, like an $865,000 Bulgari necklace, and to top it all off to fund the construction of a $4.6 million hotel at a beach resort in the Philippines.

We’re taking back the money, the luxury cars, the jewelry, and these alleged fraudsters will face justice. The coordinated actions of the past two weeks have resulted in over $182 million in cash and other assets seized, making clear our health care fraud enforcement efforts generate a significant return on investment for our taxpayers.

June 23, 2026 – Elon Musk: USAID funding was central to the creation of COVID-19

USAID funneled $53 million to EcoHealth Alliance, which funded coronavirus gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

That research likely created COVID-19.

Millions died.

Trillions were lost.

Lives were destroyed.

USAID has a history of being a CIA-front organization.

Former USAID Director John Gilligan admitted the agency was “infiltrated from top to bottom with CIA people,” explaining that operatives were embedded throughout USAID’s overseas activities.

In 2013, a State Department cable published by WikiLeaks described USAID’s strategy in Venezuela as “penetrating Chavez’s political base,” “dividing Chavismo,” and “isolating Chavez internationally.”

In 2014, the Associated Press revealed that USAID secretly funded a Twitter-like platform in Cuba designed to build political opposition.

From 2009 to 2019, USAID partnered with EcoHealth Alliance on the PREDICT program, identifying 1,200 new viruses, training 5,000 people, and expanding dozens of research laboratories worldwide.

Then COVID emerged at one of those labs.

In 2022, former EcoHealth Alliance Vice President Andrew Huff alleged that Peter Daszak had ties to the CIA.

In 2023, a CIA whistleblower alleged that agency officials offered incentives to analysts to support a natural-origin assessment and downplay evidence pointing to a lab leak.

The CIA covered up the lab origin of COVID-19 because USAID funding was central to the creation of COVID-19.

June 23, 2026 – Acting DNI Pulte removes 51 from agency – Six fired and 45 “sent back to their home agencies”

William “Bill” Pulte (Credit: Wikipedia)CBS is reporting on events within the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.  As CTH previously outlined, Acting Director of National Intelligence Bill Pulte is following a very predictable path. {GO DEEP}

The part of the CBS report that tells the story is: “Six career and political intelligence staff were terminated and 45 were sent back to their home agencies, according to three sources familiar with the personnel moves.” … “One source characterized the cuts as thoughtful and methodical. No staffers have been removed from the counterterrorism group.”

So, who was removed?  Well, I’m certainly not the Nostradamus of USIC, but if I were to hazard an educated guess it looks like the National Intelligence Council – Directorate of Analysis, just lost six political staff, and 45 people from the various liaison desks were ‘sent back to their home agencies.’

As we noted last year, Tulsi Gabbard took the National Intelligence Council (NIC) out of the CIA – fired the heads, then putting the assembly back under the control of the ODNI.  However, highly political operatives within the former CIA-controlled Directorate of Analysis (the former home of Eric Ciarmella) were still problematic.  It looks like Director Pulte just eliminated the remaining DoA rats.

The 45 returned to their ‘home agencies‘ were certainly from the liaison desks inside the DNI.

I’m not sure if that represents 45 from across all the desks, or the complete elimination of some overstaffed liaison desks.  That said, given the nature of the leaking was recently to CNN (State Dept leaks to CNN), I am somewhat confident the State Dept liaison office inside the DNI is now empty office space.  [Just a hunch 😂]

Please remember, our predictive public discussions at CTH are in the strictest confidence.

(VIA CBS) – Just over 50 career and political intelligence staff at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence have been removed from their roles since Bill Pulte became the agency’s acting director, Friday.

Six career and political intelligence staff were terminated and 45 were sent back to their home agencies, according to three sources familiar with the personnel moves.

Pulte has been asking deputies and other directors for suggestions about cuts. Some of the ODNI deputies pushed for more cuts, but Pulte said that the 51 was enough for now, one of the sources said.

One source characterized the cuts as thoughtful and methodical. No staffers have been removed from the counterterrorism group.

No further firings are planned for now, two of the sources said.

The cuts follow hundreds of staff reductions last year by former Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, who stepped down last week. Last year’s planned downsizing sought to bring the office’s headcount from 2,000 to around 1,300.

President Trump has pushed for further cuts, directing Pulte to “execute the immediate and needed downsizing of the office” in a Truth Social post earlier this month.

[…] Sen. Mark Warner and Rep. Jim Himes, the top Democrats on the Senate and House intelligence panels, warned Pulte against making large-scale staff cuts, calling it an inappropriate course of action for an acting official without national security experience. (more)

Senator Warner haz sad.

Meanwhile in related news: “This sets up a stalemate as several Democrats have said they will not support reauthorizing Section 702 while Pulte remains Trump’s acting DNI pick.” {source}

No FISA (702)?

June 23, 2026 – CIA Director Ratcliffe has been on an absolute tear with mass firings and buyouts

Okay, here is the truth. CIA Director Ratcliffe has been on an absolute tear. He’s done more house-cleaning at Langley than anyone in decades — and predictably, the entrenched bureaucracy is screaming bloody murder about it.

🧹 The Purge: What He’s Actually Done

Mass Firings & Buyouts

•February 2025: Ratcliffe extended the government-wide deferred resignation buyout program to the entire CIA workforce — the first time any intelligence agency had done this. The pitch was blunt: take the deal and walk, or get on board with the new mission.

•51 DEI-related officers were targeted for termination. A judge temporarily paused the firings of 19 who sued, but a Virginia district judge ultimately ruled Ratcliffe has “sweeping statutory authority” to fire CIA employees at will.

•Probationary employees (those with less than two years at the agency) were systematically reviewed and many were cut. They were summoned to off-site locations, stripped of security credentials, and shown the door. The agency’s own statement on this was cold as ice: “Our officers face unique pressures from working in situations that are fast-paced and high-stakes — it’s not for everyone.”

•Overall headcount reduction: The plan is to shrink the CIA by roughly 1,200 positions over Trump’s term, partly through early retirements (several hundred took the deal), partly through reduced hiring, and partly through straight firings.

The DEI Purge

This was arguably the most controversial piece. Officers who’d been rotated into diversity, equity, and inclusion roles — some with 18 years in, just short of their pensions — got axed. Their attorney argued they were just “regular American intelligence officers” doing temporary DEI assignments. Ratcliffe didn’t care. The DEI apparatus was seen as a political infection, and he cut it out.

The Bias Report Scandal (2026)

This one’s especially revealing. Ratcliffe ordered a review of roughly 300 intelligence reports from the past decade. The President’s Intelligence Advisory Board found 19 reports so politically compromised they violated basic tradecraft standards under Intelligence Community Directive 203. Of those:

•17 were permanently deleted
•2 were pulled, revised, and reissued

The reports spanned the tenures of John Brennan, Gina Haspel, and William Burns — and none of those directors had ever rescinded a batch of reports over bias. Ratcliffe’s CIA official put it plainly: “There is absolutely no room for bias in any kind of the CIA’s work.”

If 19 out of 300 were bad enough to delete, what’s lurking in the thousands that haven’t been reviewed yet?

🧠 Why This Matters

This isn’t typical bureaucratic reshuffling. Ratcliffe is systematically dismantling what he and Gabbard have openly called the “well-documented politicization” and “weaponization” of the intelligence community. Gabbard has sent criminal referrals for illegal leaks, revoked 67 security clearances, and has 11 more leak investigations underway.

The pearl-clutching from the old guard is exactly what you’d expect. CNN ran breathless pieces about how fired agents might sell secrets to China or Russia. Ratcliffe’s response was savage: “You’re telling me that a professional setback could cause people to risk the consequences of treason… and your argument is that those are the kind of people who should stay inside CIA?”

The deeper question — and Ratcliffe clearly gets this — is whether an intelligence agency that spent years running DEI programs, producing politically slanted analysis, and leaking against a sitting president was ever really serving the American people in the first place. You don’t reform a captured institution with gentle memos and lateral transfers. You clean house.

Leader of ANTIFA Cell Members in North Texas SENTENCED TO 100 YEARS IN PRISON for Terrorist Attack on ICE Facility: Seven additional defendants also sentenced before one-year anniversary of attack to a combined 450 years in prison

This is the first sentencing of defendants affiliated with Antifa following @POTUS’s executive order designating the group as a Domestic Terrorist Organization in September 2025.

“The sentences handed down today make clear that Antifa terrorists who attack law enforcement and federal facilities will face swift and uncompromising justice,” said Acting Attorney General
@DAGToddBlanche. “Their violent extremism has no place in our country, and the Department of Justice will continue to aggressively investigate, disrupt, and prosecute those who threaten law enforcement officers or undermine the rule of law.”

June 23, 2026 – Mamdani’s commies win their NY primaries and incumbents are beaten

Zohran Mamdani backed three socialist candidates in New York Congressional primaries overnight. All three won. Five-term incumbent Rep. Adriano Espaillat fell to a Mamdani-backed challenger. Trump impeachment prosecutor 𝐃𝐚𝐧 𝐆𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐦𝐚𝐧 — personally backed by Hakeem Jeffries — lost his seat. 𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞.

Jeffries had campaigned personally against every one of those candidates and lost every race. Then, at the Claire Valdez victory party, the crowd turned to face him and chanted “𝘠𝘰𝘶’𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘦𝘹𝘵!

Mamdani’s winning slate ran on 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐈𝐂𝐄, blocking U.S. aid to Israel, and full socialist economics. The newly elected Congressmembers-elect have pledged a federal trans bill of rights, taxpayer-funded reparations, and a purge of pro-Israel Democrats. This is the direction the base is pulling the party.

Jeffries built his career as the competent establishment alternative to the hard left. He is now the establishment. The hard left just swept three Congressional seats in his own backyard. The chant wasn’t subtle, and neither is what’s coming.

Last night’s congressional primaries saw Mamdani’s three endorsed candidates — freak socialist prison abolitionists who want to dismantle ICE — sweep NYC. But this phenomenon is far from contained to New York.

From DC to Seattle, so-called “sewer socialists,” DSA-darlings, and your local, questionably tattooed barista are taking over the party. Say hello to the new Democrats, where AOC is the moderate.

Three candidates endorsed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani swept House Democratic primaries Tuesday in solidly blue NYC districts. Rep. Dan Goldman, a two-term incumbent, 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐋𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫, a far-left challenger who has publicly accused Israel of committing genocide in Gaza. Two other Mamdani-backed socialists knocked out Democratic incumbents. Media declared it a revolution. James Carville declared something else.

The veteran strategist who put Bill Clinton in the White House invoked the “S-word” on a panel that night: schism. “𝘓𝘦𝘵’𝘴 𝘯𝘦𝘨𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘢 𝘴𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘴𝘮 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦. 𝘔𝘢𝘺𝘣𝘦 𝘸𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘢𝘥𝘷𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘨𝘦𝘰𝘶𝘴 𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘴 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘣𝘰𝘵𝘩 𝘰𝘧 𝘶𝘴. 𝘉𝘶𝘵 𝘐’𝘮 𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘦.” He pointed out that Democrats like Jason Crow went 𝟏𝟎 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝟏𝟏 in competitive recruit races — winning repeatedly, unnoticed — while three socialist wins in deep-blue Manhattan consumed every front page. He added bluntly: “𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘦 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘥𝘰 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘋𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘴. 𝘕𝘰𝘵 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘺 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘋𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘴, 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘸𝘪𝘴𝘩 𝘋𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘴 𝘱𝘰𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘺.”

Then he drew the line that matters most for anyone following the Israel-H∗mas war. Carville made clear he has no problem criticizing Israeli government policy — he said he’s “enthusiastic” about that debate. The line was drawn at something else: “𝘐 𝘥𝘰𝘯’𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘢 𝘱𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘐𝘴𝘳𝘢𝘦𝘭 𝘵𝘰 𝘦𝘹𝘪𝘴𝘵. 𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵’𝘴 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘯𝘰𝘵 — 𝘐 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘤𝘢𝘯’𝘵 𝘥𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵. 𝘐’𝘮 𝘴𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘺. 𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘥𝘰𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦.”

His verdict on the socialist wing’s electoral performance: “𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘢 𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘨𝘪𝘧𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘋𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘥 𝘛𝘳𝘶𝘮𝘱.” That’s not conservative spin — that’s the architect of the last successful Democrat coalition telling you exactly what Mamdani’s NYC sweep means for the general election map.

A telling moment in the New York City congressional primaries on Tuesday night came when, near the end of Darializa Avila Chevalier’s victory speech, the crowd began spontaneously chanting, “Free, free Palestine!”

It’s hard to imagine how a candidate could be more anti-Israel than Avila Chevalier, who just ousted a pro-Israel incumbent. But she didn’t directly mention Israel in her speech. When the chant broke out, Avila Chevalier was delivering an energetic but boilerplate line about taking her fight to Washington, DC.

In other words, her base didn’t chant for Palestine because it’s important to her. They chanted because it’s important to them. They didn’t vote for her in spite of her opposition to Israel; they voted for her because of it.
Ben Sales, Times of Israel

Let me remind this piece of garbage what she said and deleted. Not to mention Mayor Mamdani supports her – DISGRACEFUL.

Darializa Avila Chevalier:

-Called for abolishing police: “No more police at all ever.”

-Called for abolishing prisons and borders: “A world without borders… without prisons or police…”

-Said “literally, abolish the border” and “all deportation is wrong.”

-Shared/endorsed “Israel doesn’t exist.”

-Supported seizing properties from landlords.

-Posted “Seize the means of production.”

-Referred to the U.S. as a “f—king disgrace.”

-Blamed the U.S. for “bullying Russia” before the Ukraine invasion.

-Accused U.S. service members of war crimes and mocked veterans’ homelessness.

-Reposted “ALL PIGS EVERYWHERE ARE HARAM,”
apparently referring to police.

-Posted about wiping dirty hands on the American flag.

GFY! Get out of our country…

*Brad Lander, Who Accuses Israel Of Genocide, Says In Victory Speech: “You Can Be Anti-Zionist And Not Be Antisemitic”*

Fresh off his victory over pro-Israel Congressman Dan Goldman, Mamdani-backed progressive Brad Lander defended anti-Zionism in his election night speech.

“You can criticize Israel and not be antisemitic. You can be an anti-Zionist and not be antisemitic. Many Jews are, and many non-Jews also,” Lander told supporters.

Lander, who has repeatedly accused Israel of committing “genocide” in Gaza, also blasted former President Joe Biden’s approach toward Israel.

“Our party needs to admit that Joe Biden’s ‘hug Bibi’ strategy was a catastrophic mistake,” Lander said. “We cannot keep paying for Netanyahu’s wars with our tax dollars.”

He added that Democratic voters are demanding a different approach and called for a “politics of shared safety,” comparing Palestinian children in Gaza and the West Bank to his own children.

Lander’s victory marks another win for the progressive wing of the Democratic Party, as all three congressional candidates endorsed by Mayor Zohran Mamdani emerged victorious in their respective primaries.

Founder of the Lincoln Project and Trump antagonist, George “Boo Hoo” Conway, ran for Jerry Nadler’s  NY 12th District seat and lost to Micah Lasher.

Aber Kawas just won the Democratic primary for New York State Senate District 12 — stepping into the seat of retiring senator Michael Gianaris — backed by socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Socialists of America, the Working Families Party, and Make the Road New York. She won by double digits (City & State NY; DSA; NYS Focus).

In the video above, Kawas lays out her worldview directly. She traces Islamophobia as a “𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘩𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘴𝘺𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘤 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴” rooted in colonialism — from medieval Spain through the slave trade to the present. When it comes to 9/11, she frames the attack not as terrorism requiring condemnation but as a “𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘶𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯” of U.S. foreign policy and Western imperialism.

Then she says this: “𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘢 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘢𝘱𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘨𝘪𝘻𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘢 𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘳𝘰𝘳 𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘢 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰 𝘢𝘱𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘨𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘰𝘳 𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘰𝘤𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘴𝘭𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘦𝘵𝘤 𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐 𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘥 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘩𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦.”

Read that again. She doesn’t find the attack reprehensible. She finds the expectation of an apology reprehensible. Nearly 3,000 Americans m∗rdered on September 11th reduced to “𝘢 𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘳𝘰𝘳 𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘢 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘥.” This is who the DSA and Mamdani’s machine is elevating to power in New York.

President Trump arrived at the US Capitol on Tuesday to pressure Senate Republicans on the SAVE America Act. He had already canceled the housing bill signing earlier in the day, declared the legislation a “𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘺,” and showed up in person to make the case. When reporters caught him outside, he said what Democrats have spent four years pretending is untrue.

He’s not wrong. Last night’s New York primary delivered Darializa Avila Chevalier — co-founder of a “𝘋𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘰 𝘈𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢” organization — as the Democratic nominee for a safe congressional seat. An 𝐎𝐛𝐚𝐦𝐚-𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐣𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐁𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐧 just permanently blocked Trump’s executive order requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote.

Speaker Mike Johnson didn’t reach for a press release after the New York primaries. He reached for Ronald Reagan.

Johnson invoked Reagan’s most enduring warning: “𝘍𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘥𝘰𝘮 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘯 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘸𝘢𝘺 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘦𝘹𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯.

𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘨𝘰𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳.”

Johnson’s application of the Reagan warning was direct: “𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘨𝘢𝘯 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 — 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘮 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘦𝘢𝘴. 𝘕𝘰𝘸 𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘰𝘸𝘯 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘴, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘈𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘸𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘶𝘱.”

June 22, 2026 – FBI brings back fugitive accused in $3.7B Medicare fraud scheme after capture in Turkey

A fugitive accused of helping mastermind a $3.7 billion Medicare fraud scheme — one of the largest in U.S. history — is in American custody after authorities tracked him down in Turkey and flew him back to the U.S. to face charges, the FBI announced Monday.

Ibrahim Khaldoon Hilmi was recently detained by Turkish authorities after he fled the U.S. in May 2025, the FBI said. The FBI’s Critical Incident Response Group flew out to Turkey and transported Hilmi to the U.S. on Friday through a foreign transfer of custody operation.

FBI Director Kash Patel hailed the operation as a major victory in the bureau’s effort to track down fugitives accused of stealing taxpayer dollars.

“Ibrahim Khaldoon Hilmi is charged with one of the biggest Medicare scams in history — allegedly orchestrating a massive $3.7 billion scheme to defraud Medicare,” Patel said in a statement to Fox News Digital. “He’s been on the run since May of 2025 — but we got him.”

The arrest marks the second high-profile return of an alleged Medicare fraud fugitive in less than a week.

On Thursday, the FBI announced it had brought back Herbert Kimble, who investigators say had been on the run since 2024 after allegedly orchestrating a separate Medicare fraud scheme worth approximately $1.3 billion. (Read more: Fox News, 6/22/2026)  (Archive)

June 24, 2026 – Americans will not forget the Covid 19/vaccine lies and the devastation left behind – A montage of memories

“I have to say that I don’t see a big solution other than some sort of mandatory vaccination. I know federal officials don’t like to use that term. Once people feel empowered and protected legally, you were gonna have schools, universities and colleges, and just say ‘you wanna come to this college, buddy, you’re gonna get vaccinated, lady you’re gonna get vaccinated.’ Yeah, big corporations like Amazon and Facebook and all of those others are gonna say ‘you want to work for us, you get vaccinated.’ And it’s been proven that when you make it difficult for people in their lives they lose their ideological bullshit and they get vaccinated.” ~Anthony Fauci

June 24, 2026 – Eight North Carolina tax return preparers plead guilty in almost $25M pandemic-relief fraud scheme

WILMINGTON, N.C. – A Robeson County woman who was the owner of a North Carolina tax return preparation business pleaded guilty to conspiring to prepare false returns claiming fraudulent refunds based on COVID-19 tax credits, and assisting in the preparation of false tax returns. Mitchell, 48, faces a maximum term of eight years in prison, and a $500,000 fine when sentenced later this year. She will also be ordered to pay a Forfeiture Money Judgment of $13,890,697.00. Seven other tax return preparers have already pleaded guilty for their roles in the same fraud scheme.

According to court documents and statements made in court, Nejlai Mitchell owned and operated a tax return preparation business out of Lumberton, North Carolina, and Hope Mills, North Carolina. From approximately April 2022 through May 2023, Mitchell and seven employees filed false tax returns seeking fraudulent refunds based on COVID-19 tax credits. As a result of the conspiracy, the IRS paid out approximately $13,890,697 in fraudulent tax refund claims.

Seven other co-conspirators previously pleaded guilty to preparing federal tax returns for clients that included materially false items. Tiffany Moody and Shaneen Ray pleaded guilty in December 2025; Eyoubo McBurney and Katrena Stanback pleaded guilty in September 2025; Jeannie Negron and Sylvia Swindell pleaded guilty in August 2025, and Whitnee Leach pleaded guilty in May 2026.

Ellis Boyle, U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of North Carolina, made the announcement after Chief U.S. District Judge Richard E. Myers II accepted the plea. IRS-CI is investigating the case.

A copy of this press release is located on our website. Related court documents and information can be found on the website of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina or on PACER by searching for Case No. 7:26-CR-38-M.

June 24, 2026 – Postmaster General tells congress USPS will not deliver mail-in ballots to states that refuse to comply with Trump’s Election Integrity EO

The Radical Left just got hit with another major blow to their favorite election fraud vehicle.

During testimony before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee on Wednesday, U.S. Postmaster General David Steiner confirmed that the United States Postal Service will refuse to deliver mail-in and absentee ballots in any state that fails to comply with President Trump’s March 31, 2026, Executive Order on election integrity.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, President Trump signed the landmark “Ensuring Citizenship Verification and Integrity in Federal Elections” executive order directing the Postmaster General to establish strict new rules for election mail.

The order requires states to submit detailed manifests, including voter names, addresses, and unique barcode identifiers, at least 60 days before federal elections so USPS can verify eligibility and track ballots.

States that refuse to hand over the lists or follow the new security standards (special “Official Election Mail” envelopes with intelligent mail barcodes) will simply not have their ballots delivered by the Postal Service.

Steiner made it crystal clear under questioning from Sen. Gary Peters (D-MI):

“If a state refuses to turn their absentee voter list over to the federal government, will the Postal Service still mail their ballots under this proposed rule?”

Steiner: “Under our proposed regulation, no.”

He added that USPS would inform non-compliant states: “We would tell the state that we need the manifest.”

June 25, 2026 – A plumbing subcontractor is forced to lay off 25 union workers after being stiffed by Obama of $4 million owed for work on Presidential Center

A Chicago plumbing subcontractor who poured years of work into the Barack Obama Presidential Center has suspended operations and laid off 25 union workers after being left nearly $4 million in the hole, just weeks after the star-studded grand opening of Barack Obama’s monument to himself.

Mike Owen, owner of Adamson Plumbing Contractors (which performed work under the name Marsh-Adamson), told Fox News the financial devastation from delays, endless design changes, rework, and unpaid invoices forced him to abandon roughly half a dozen other jobs and push the company to the brink of collapse.

He described the decision as painful but necessary to avoid outright bankruptcy.

“It was in the company’s best interest to suspend all operations. Moving forward until we could get back on solid financial ground. It was not an easy decision to make. Laying off close to 30 people is something that no owner in our industry wants to do,” Owen said.

“We actually had about a half a dozen other projects that I had to make the decision and walk away from. It’s a hard thing to do, especially when you know you can finish them and the company can still make money. But we were put in a pretty bad corner, and I also felt that the responsible thing to do was to talk to those other clients, explain the situation, and just say, “It’s best if we allow another contractor to come in and finish.”

June 26, 2026 – A new movie, Citizen Vigilante, delivers the warning western governments desperately need to hear

On the landscape of contemporary film, Citizen Vigilante arrives less as entertainment than as a cultural artifact that captures a fracture already visible in official records across Europe. Directed by Uwe Boll and starring Armie Hammer, the movie follows a wealthy American veteran who becomes a masked avenger in European cities. He hunts violent criminals, rapists, and the corrupt officials who shield them. The narrative centers on gang rape and predation tied to unchecked migration from Islamic societies. It portrays indigenous citizens who never consented to the demographic and cultural transformation of their countries. These citizens watch perpetrators from migrant backgrounds receive lenient treatment or escape justice while natives who complain face prosecution or ruin. The film does not invent this world. It dramatizes one that government statistics, independent inquiries, and public polling have documented for years.

The core claim is straightforward. European elites imposed a civilizational transformation without asking the people who would live with the results. Citizen Vigilante gives artistic form to the resulting sense of stolen sovereignty. When the state will not defend the native population, individuals step forward. That premise rests on a factual foundation that begins with specific events and scales to national patterns.

Consider the night of December 31, 2015, in Cologne and other German cities. Coordinated groups of men, predominantly North African and Middle Eastern, many of them asylum seekers or illegal aliens, sexually assaulted approximately 1,200 women. Cologne alone recorded around 650 assaults, including 22 rapes. Police communications initially instructed officers to downplay the ethnic profile of the perpetrators. Media outlets followed suit for days. Only sustained public pressure forced fuller acknowledgment. The attacks were not an isolated outburst. They served as an early, public demonstration that the 2015 open-door policy carried immediate, foreseeable costs to women’s safety. Authorities had been unwilling to discuss those costs honestly beforehand, during or even after.

The United Kingdom presents a longer and more systematic record. Between 1997 and 2013 in Rotherham, hundreds of children, overwhelmingly white British girls as young as eleven, were groomed, gang-raped, trafficked between towns, beaten, and in some cases threatened with guns or petrol by predominantly Pakistani men. Taxi drivers and takeaway workers used alcohol, drugs, and intimidation to control victims. Police and council officials received repeated, detailed reports yet refused to act decisively. The independent inquiry led by Alexis Jay concluded that a widespread perception that authorities should downplay the Islamic dimensions of the abuse, for fear of racism accusations, paralyzed effective response. Similar organized networks operated in Rochdale, Telford, Oxford, Oldham, and elsewhere. Thousands more victims suffered under the same pattern.

Rupert Lowe’s Rape Gang Inquiry Report, released in June 2026, extends this record across the entire country. The 219-page document identifies evidence of identical grooming gang operations in at least 149 local authority areas. It traces the pattern back to documented cases in Bradford as early as 1955. Extrapolating from established local patterns, the report estimates at least 250,000 predominantly white British girls have endured repeated rape, gang rape, trafficking, torture, and in some instances forced Islamic conversion attempts since the middle of the last century. The gangs operated with the active or passive consent of public authorities. Police, social services, the NHS, and local councils treated victims as promiscuous or problematic rather than as targets of organized crime. Warnings were ignored. Files were not pursued. Perpetrators from recent migrant backgrounds were rarely deported even after conviction. The report describes this history as a rotting stain on Britain’s past and states that many citizens no longer trust the government to investigate its own failures without external pressure.

Germany’s Federal Criminal Police Office data reveals a consistent national pattern since the 2015 migrant influx. Non-German nationals, who comprise roughly 15 to 16 percent of the population, account for approximately 35 to 42 percent of crime suspects overall in recent years, excluding pure immigration violations. The disparity sharpens in violent and sexual crime. In 2024, of 11,329 identified suspects in rape and sexual assault cases, 4,437, or about 39 percent, were non-Germans. Asylum seekers and recent arrivals have been overrepresented by factors of 3.9 to 4.2 times or higher in sexual offenses. Certain North African and sub-Saharan groups have recorded rates ten to twenty-one times the German average for rape and sexual assault in some datasets. Rape and serious sexual assault cases rose steadily, reaching 13,320 in 2024 with further increases into 2025 and 2026.

These numbers sit alongside a two-tier system of enforcement. Native citizens who post on social media about crime patterns or criticize migration policy have faced fines, job loss, or prosecution under hate-speech provisions. Meanwhile, many perpetrators from favored migrant groups receive de facto protection through institutional reluctance to name ethnic or cultural patterns. The asymmetry produces the precise sense of inverted justice the film dramatizes. Equal protection under law yields to selective enforcement that shields one set of groups while criminalizing dissent from another. (Read more: The Enterprise/Amuse, 6/27/2026)  (Archive)

I watched Citizen Vigilante on Amazon Prime (Banned in Germany).

The US/Canadian release is today. It is playing at a tiny number of theaters and is available on Amazon Prime, Apple TV, and Fandango. Amazon Prime charges $6.99 and you can watch it for 30 days.

It was entertaining. There definitely are not any boring parts. It is not a mega-budget movie from one of Hollywood’s Big Five. More like an adequately funded indie movie.

The character is like the Punisher, but with a wealthy background like Batman. Unlike Batman, there is no personal catalyst like the Joker killing his parents.

The main character is obsessed with wanting a high trust society. He is also angry about blind obedience to authority. He believes the people in power don’t give a shit about you and law enforcement and the justice system exist more to control the law abiding than to stop, catch, or punish actual criminals.

The film was effectively banned in “democratic” Germany by the Freiwillige Selbstkontrolle der Filmwirtschaft [FSK]. This is Germany’s version of America’s Classification and Rating Administration [CARA].

Both the FSK and CARA are billed as independent, voluntary, private regulatory boards free of government imposed censorship.

However, in the case of the FSK, they have been empowered by the German government to completely block a movie from being shown in theaters, sold on DVD, or streamed in Germany. It is a way for a movie to be banned, while the German government says, “we didn’t ban anything, we had nothing to do with it.”

The FSK is allowed to simply refuse issuing any rating and it is illegal to exhibit, sell, or stream the movie.

What makes the film unique, and why it is banned in Germany, is twofold. It is inspired by real-life crimes. However, unlike the BBC in Britain or American media companies, the filmmakers do not race-swap all the non-White criminals into White people. The criminals in the movie are a mix of African, Middle Eastern, and White Europeans.

Second, unlike traditional vigilante movies, the main character goes after both the criminals and the people in the criminal justice system who coddle and protect them.

In one scene, it shows a judge explaining to the media how a group of teenage immigrant gang rapists are just as much victims as the 14-year-old girl they brutally raped. Sending them to jail would supposedly just make things worse. The scene is based on real dialogue from real judges.

I believe this is what sparked the meltdown at the FSK.

June 26, 2026 – The Democratic Socialists of America call for ending capitalism, deportations, defunding the police, open border, and Medicare for all, to name a few

The NYC chapter of the largest socialist organization in the U.S., the Democratic Socialists of America – DSA. (Credit: public domain)

The Democratic Socialists of America have adopted a strategy to exploit the Democratic Party’s ballot access to boost their own candidates at the expense of incumbents, a plan which achieved remarkable success in New York City this week.

The victory of two DSA-backed candidates and one former member delivered a shock to the Democratic Party establishment, which has begun to call for better policing of the party’s primaries against candidates who are only seeking to exploit it, not join it.

“I say this with no ill will or animosity: if you hate the Democratic Party, then please don’t run for our nomination,” said Jaime Harrison, who served as the Democratic National Committee Chairman from 2021 to 2025.

“Don’t use our resources. Don’t rely on our volunteers. Don’t use our infrastructure. Don’t ask Democrats to invest their time, money, and energy in your campaign,” he added. “Focus on building the party you actually support.”

The DSA – which calls for abandoning capitalism, defunding the police, and nationalizing key industrial sectors – has long publicly stated its intent to do just that.

(…) The platform: Abolishing ICE, ending deportations, opposing the state of Israel, Medicare for all, and creating federal job guarantees

The candidates centered their campaigns on radical changes that have become the calling card of a new brand of socialist Democrats. Their platform includes abolishing ICE, ending deportations, opposing the state of Israel, implementing Medicare for all, and creating federal job guarantees.

In Washington, D.C., Janeese Lewis George, another DSA member, is poised to become the next mayor of the nation’s capital city. In Los Angeles, DSA-backed Nithya Raman has advanced to a runoff election against incumbent Mayor Karen Bass.

The rapid success of these socialist candidates within the Democratic Party primary system has alarmed many establishment and traditional Democrats.

June 26, 2026 – Scott Bessent: Investigators are tracking nonprofit networks, donors, and organizations allegedly linked to foreign terrorism

I asked Grok: Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Real America’s Voice that investigators are tracking nonprofit networks, donors, and organizations allegedly linked to foreign terrorism. Can you tell me more about this?

Grok reply:

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent made this statement in a June 26, 2026, interview on Real America’s Voice (in the “Just the News – No Noise” segment with John Solomon and Amanda Head).

In the clip, Bessent stated that investigators are actively tracking nonprofit networks, donors, and organizations with alleged links to foreign terrorism. He warned that groups designated as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs) could face loss of tax-exempt status, asset freezes, or forfeiture. He also emphasized unmasking anonymous donor networks involved in such activities. @RealAmVoice

Broader Context

This fits into the Trump administration’s wider efforts on terrorist financing, nonprofit oversight, and fraud:

  • Counter-Terrorism Focus: Treasury has taken actions like sanctions on individuals tied to pro-Hamas flotillas and Muslim Brotherhood/Hamas-aligned networks (e.g., May 2026 OFAC designations). Bessent has spoken at events like the “No Money for Terror” conference, stressing disruption of financial networks supporting groups like Hamas, Hezbollah, or others. home.treasury.gov
  • Nonprofit Scrutiny: The IRS (under Treasury oversight) and FBI are examining grant-making nonprofits for funding violent activities (e.g., Antifa-linked networks) or foreign influence. New Form 990 guidance holds funders responsible for recipients engaging in violence or rights suppression. washingtontimes.com

Specific Cases:

  • Probes into COVID-era fraud (e.g., Minnesota welfare schemes) where funds allegedly reached places like Somalia or the Middle East, with possible terror links (e.g., Al-Shabaab). facebook.com
  • Calls to review groups like CAIR for alleged Muslim Brotherhood/Hamas ties, with requests to revoke tax-exempt status.gov.texas.gov
  • Concerns over foreign influence, including CCP-linked nonprofits or other donor networks. waysandmeans.house.gov

Policy Tools:

This involves following the money via Treasury/FinCEN, potential sanctions under EO 13224, IRS audits/revocations under 501(c)(3) rules (especially §501(p) for terror ties), and interagency work with DOJ/FBI. home.treasury.gov

Critics (e.g., left-leaning groups) view this as politically motivated targeting of progressive nonprofits or advocacy. Supporters see it as necessary accountability to prevent U.S. tax benefits or donations from subsidizing terrorism, fraud, or foreign adversaries. democracydocket.com

The story is ongoing, with more details likely in Treasury press releases or congressional oversight. For the full RAV segment, check their site or podcast (it covers nonprofit fraud probes broadly).

June 26, 2026 – After the raid on Mar-a-Lago, John Bolton accuses Trump of mishandling classified info; today Bolton pleads guilty to mishandling classified info

This FBI’s investigation proved that John Bolton knowingly transmitted top secret information using personal online accounts and retained said documents in his house – all in direct violation of federal law.

Despite an onslaught of false claims by the fake news stating this case was ‘retribution,’ this investigation was based on meticulous work from dedicated professionals at the FBI who followed the facts without fear or favor – and Bolton chose to admit his guilt and pled guilty.

He is now a convicted felon for violating one of the most consequential trusts placed upon government officials.

June 26, 2026 – The RNC sues Colorado’s Secretary of State for allowing people who have never lived in the state to vote in their elections

Press Release

“Yet again, Democrats are trying to let people vote in a state where they’ve never lived,” said RNC Chairman Joe Gruters. “Jena Griswold is ignoring Colorado’s Constitution and allowing non-residents to cast ballots in Colorado elections. The RNC is fighting these unconstitutional schemes across the country, and we’re suing to stop this one.”

Background:

  • Today, the RNC, Congressman Jeff Crank, and Douglas County Clerk and Recorder Sheri Davis sued Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold.
  • The lawsuit challenges a Colorado law and election policy that allow certain people who have never lived in Colorado – and in some cases have never lived in the United States – to vote in Colorado elections.
  • Colorado’s Constitution is clear: voting is reserved for Colorado residents.
  • Griswold’s policy allows people to vote based solely on the past residency of a parent, guardian, or spouse, despite never having lived in Colorado themselves.
  • The lawsuit seeks to strike down Colorado’s unconstitutional “never-resident voter” law and stop its enforcement.
  • The lawsuit also seeks the removal of ineligible never-resident voters from Colorado’s voter rolls.
  • This lawsuit builds on the RNC’s successful record defending voter eligibility requirements across the country, including a major victory in North Carolina stopping non-residents from voting and a recent lawsuit challenging a similar policy in Nebraska.

June 26, 2026 – Tina Peters declares Democrats are going to “cheat” again and no one is addressing the “vote flipping” election machine vulnerabilities

June 27, 2026 – Prominent education reform advocate, Katharine Birbalsingh: How schools are destroying the moral core of the West

British educator, author, and prominent advocate for education reform, Katharine Birbalsingh, delivered a recent speech for The Alliance for Responsible Citizenship, and her frank assessment of modern education has taken the internet by storm.

In her address at the ARC Conference, Birbalsingh, Britain’s “strictest headmistress,” argued that the West is experiencing a profound civilizational decline driven by the erosion of traditional moral values in the younger generation.

Citing incidents like the death of Henry Novak and the assassination of Charlie Kirk, she blamed “white guilt” and an oppressor-versus-oppressed worldview taught in schools and reinforced online.

Birbalsingh criticized how education now frames history primarily through lenses of slavery, colonialism, and victimhood, sidelining stories of duty, gratitude, and Western achievement. She holds older generations (Boomers, Gen X, older Millennials) responsible for failing to instill small-c conservative values of personal responsibility, hard work, and moral clarity, and warns that this has left young people paralyzed by fear of being labeled racist.

She urges parents and educators to actively transmit traditional values to “inoculate” children against victimhood culture and save the West.

June 28, 2026 – A million phantom people are enrolled in Obamacare plans with no Social Security number attached

When Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services chief Mehmet Oz announced that roughly a million people had been enrolled in Obamacare plans with no Social Security number attached, the figure landed like an immigration scandal. It is something worse.

The number is not primarily a story about who slipped onto the rolls. It is a confession about how the rolls were built, and about an architecture the previous administration engineered to be impossible to audit.

CMS identified, in its words, 1 million highly suspicious agent and broker assisted enrollments through HealthCare.gov with no Social Security number on the application and no premium being paid. Read that again. The common thread is not a border. It is a broker.

Insurance agents and brokers earn between five and thirty dollars per member per month, and by 2024 they were steering 78 percent of all marketplace sign-ups, up from 55 percent three years earlier. Hand a salesman a commission for every warm body he enrolls, strip away the requirement that the body verify its own identity, and design the plan so the enrollee never receives a bill that might tip him off. What did anyone expect would happen? The program was not defrauded despite its rules. It was defrauded because of them.

The fraud left fingerprints, and the report lifts them cleanly. If a million people are enrolled in coverage they never sought, the simplest tell is that they never use it. Sure enough, 40 percent of enrollees in zero-premium cost-sharing plans filed no medical claims whatsoever in 2024, roughly double the rate for plans carrying even a token premium. People do not pay for insurance they forget they have, and they do not visit doctors under a policy they never knew existed.

The second fingerprint appears the moment a bill arrives. When phantom enrollees were automatically rolled into plans that finally charged a premium, the share who failed to pay jumped from a historical norm of 18 percent to roughly 50 percent across 2024 through 2026. A ghost cannot write a check. The brokers, meanwhile, had already collected.

CMS says it has already cleared about 2.9 million of them from the books while estimating that 2.6 million remain, the equivalent of roughly $10 billion a year siphoned from taxpayers between 2021 and 2024. (Read more: Patriot.tv, 6/28/2026)  (Archive)   (h/t X22Report)

June 29, 2026 – DOJ opens grand jury investigation into communist China’s billionaire, Neville Roy Singham, for laundering money into far-left American nonprofits

DOJ opens grand jury investigation into Marxist tycoon Neville Roy Singham and alleged money laundering or other financial crimes from his base in China to funding far-left nonprofits in the U.S. and the world

WATCH how the money flows.

READ our @FoxNews Digital exclusive: 

What I’ve learned from people familiar with the investigation:

🚨 U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton for the Southern District of New York, one of the country’s most powerful districts for federal prosecutions, has launched a federal grand jury investigation into American Marxist tycoon Neville Roy Singham’s financial network, examining potential financial crimes including wire fraud, bank fraud and money laundering from his base in Shanghai, where he funds groups supporting the Chinese Communist Party.

🚨 Acting U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche authorized the investigation as the Trump administration seeks to crack down on fraud, money laundering and other financial crimes in the multibillion-dollar nonprofit industry.

🚨 Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent traveled to New York City earlier this year for a meeting with Goldman Sachs Chairman and CEO David Solomon. The men discussed the role of a Goldman Sachs philanthropic arm — GS Donor Advised Philanthropy Fund For Wealth Management Inc. — that facilitated the movement by Singham of millions of dollars into a network of U.S. nonprofits. At that meeting, sources said, Bessent delivered a blunt ultimatum: Goldman Sachs could face scrutiny for alleged conspiracy in the funneling of the Singham money and urged Solomon to cooperate with federal investigators. Goldman Sachs is cooperating with the investigation.

🚨 Federal prosecutors are examining a financial structure that follows the three stages investigators often analyze in alleged money laundering: placement, layering and integration. Treasury, DOJ and Goldman Sachs declined to comment. Singham, his wife Jodie Evans — also under investigation — and the organizations in the Singham network didn’t respond to numerous requests for comment.

STEP 1: ALLEGED PLACEMENT
According to the reporting, approximately $278 million entered the U.S. financial system through three entities:

🔴 Mutod LLC — $164,040,000
🔴 GS Donor Advised Philanthropy Fund for Wealth Management Inc. (Goldman Sachs) — $110,376,701
🔴 Likewise Conceptions LLC — $3,500,000

STEP 2: ALLEGED LAYERING
Those funds were then allegedly routed through six nonprofit organizations:

🔴 $167,540,000 to People’s Support Foundation Ltd., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit established with a hotel address in 2017 in Chicago and Singham’s wife, Evans, on the board.
🔴 $68,748,701 to Justice and Education Fund Inc., a 501(c)(3) established with a UPS Store address in 2018 in New York City with self-avowed communists, including Manola De Los Santos, on the board.
🔴 $22,440,000 to People’s Forum Inc., a 501(c)(3) established in 2017 on W. 37th Street in New York City with Evans and De Los Santos on the board.
🔴 $16,760,000 to Tricontinental Ltd., a 501(c)(3) established in North Hampton, Mass., in 2017 by Singham friend and fellow Marxist ideologue Vijay Prashad.
🔴 $1,330,000 to CodePink Women For Peace, a 501(c)(3) established in 2009 in Marina Del Ray, Calif., by Singham’s wife, Evans, and her friend, Susan Medea Benjamin.
🔴 $1,098,000 to Breakthrough BT Media Inc., a 501(c)(3) established in New York City in 2020 at the People’s Forum headquarters with longtime American communist leader Brian Becker’s son, Ben Becker, as editor-in-chief of its pro-communist propaganda outlet, Breakthrough News.

STEP 3: ALLEGED INTEGRATION

According to the reporting, those organizations then distributed funding and support into a broader activist network that included:
🔴 People’s Welfare Association
🔴 ANSWER Coalition
🔴 Party for Socialism and Liberation
🔴 Numerous organizations operating across Sub-Saharan Africa, Central America, North America and other regions.

Federal prosecutors have issued grand jury subpoenas seeking bank records and financial documents as they determine whether criminal charges are warranted.

A grand jury investigation is an investigative process, not a finding of guilt.

For this reporting, I traced hundreds of financial transactions, nonprofit filings and corporate records documenting how money allegedly moved through this network. WATCH the money flow.

2/ WATCH. Neville Roy Singham in his own words supporting the ‘new world order’ of Xi Jinping and the Chinese Communist Party

The grand jury investigation follows a five-part series we published @FoxNewsDigital in March. In the series, I unearthed a 4:13 speech in which Neville Roy Singham stood on a stage at the Golden Tulip Hotel on Nov. 13, 2025, for a conference of the “Global South Academic Forum,” coincidentally just days after the Goldman Sachs’ chief was in Beijing.

Tricontinental Ltd., a Singham-funded nonprofit, co-sponsored the event with academic institutions administered by the Chinese Communist Party.

On stage, Singham openly supported a “new world order” promoted by Chinese President Xi Jinping and the Chinese Communist Party.

During the speech, he called the United States a “fascist” nation, echoing the propaganda of the Chinese Communist Party now also parroted on the streets by communist, socialist and Democratic Party activists.

Thank you to @DataRepublican and @XVanFleet for their intelligent support throughout this investigation, connecting data points in history and the modern day.

Full transcript of this clip:

28: 10 — This fascist lie that the West says that there is a battle between fascism, democracy and communism.

28:18 — They make a fake argument that there are three systems. I think Vijay has done a very good job of explaining that in fact fascism is actually a face of capitalism and imperialism as is colonialism.

28:28 — These are the three faces of a system that quite now is getting very very dangerous for us. The reason I think this study and the role of the global south academic forum and of China is this moment of history if we want to understand international rules-based order which is their favorite term.

28:49 — It was the Americans who took the uh Japanese uh scientist who conducted biological experiments against the Chinese, put them in in off of any uh uh punishment.

29:02 — It was the English who took the Italian fascists and made sure they were not charged. The international rules-based order was created by another lie which was that the fascists were all protected by the Americans and put into power in their countries in Japan and in Italy.

29:19 — If we want to therefore have a new world’s order that is based on multilateralism that President Xi and CPC and China have proposed, we have to undo the ideological damage that has been done by the narrative of World War II.

3/ WATCH. RED LINE: Today, as we reported on @FoxNewsDigital that the @TheJusticeDept has launched a grand jury investigation into alleged money laundering, bank fraud, wire fraud or other financial crimes by communist tech tycoon Neville Roy Singham, @POTUS @realDonaldTrump identifies a threat that Singham represents: the spread of communism.

🇨🇳 I would never have believed this myself except for the past decade I have been watching, reading and digesting every bit of the propaganda put forward by Democratic Socialists of America and then the Singham network.

Trust me when I tell you that they 💯 percent espouse communism.

Asked about “democratic socialism,” Trump said today:

‼️ “I think it’s a big threat to our nation actually.”

‼️ “They use the word social democrat because it sounds so nice, but it’s really communism you’re talking about.”

‼️ “I think it’s the biggest threat to our nation there is, maybe since our founding. That includes World War I, World War II, September 11th. It includes the Pearl Harbor attack.”

‼️ “I think this is the biggest threat to our nation. People will smile when I say that, but the smart people are going to say, ‘You know he’s probably right.’ It’s basically introducing communism into the United States of America.”

‼️ “There’s never been anything so dangerous.”

💰 Over the past decade, Neville Roy Singham has funneled $278 million into the U.S. to spread communism in the United States, according to our Fox News Digital investigation. This money has stoked discord, dissent and chaos on the streets, promoting the propaganda of the Chinese Communist Party.

President Trump is laying witness to a reality that the propagandists have tried to 🙈 hide behind the cloak of “socialism” but watching them and reading their treatises, I can tell you what they espouse: communism.

June 29, 2026 – Labor union leader calls for the execution of a Democrat who questions Graham Platner

Andy O’Brien, the communications director for the Maine AFL-CIO, a statewide federation of 160 local unions, posted on social media, suggesting Democrats who refuse to support Democrat U.S. Senate nominee Graham Platner should face execution after a “revolution.”

O’Brien shared a link to a the Hill opinion piece titled, “I’m a Democratic Strategist. I Won’t Stay Silent About Graham Platner,” by Democrat strategist Laurie A. Watkins. Watkins wrote that a career spent fighting for Democratic causes does not mean blindly supporting every candidate with a “D” by their name.

O’Brien’s response was brutal, saying political consultants like Watkins would be “first up against the wall when the revolution comes.”

Before supporting Platner, O’Brien was known for publicly calling out people he accused of holding extremist or neo-Nazi views.

After facing backlash, O’Brien said the post was meant as a joke referencing a science fiction novel, not a call for violence. He apologized to anyone offended and said he never intended to suggest harming people over their political views.

June 30, 2026 – Supreme Court decisions on: Birthright Citizenship; Trump vs Slaughter; Boys in Girls Sports; Mail-in Ballots

Birthright Citizenship

WOW! Justice Alito is absolutely FUMING over SCOTUS giving the green light to birthright citizenship

“In my judgment, the court has made a mistake that will seriously affect the country’s future.”

“Suppose that a person’s only connection to this country is that he was born here to a mother who was present just long enough to give birth and then quickly return to her native country.

Suppose that country is a strategic adversary or enemy of the United States. Suppose the child NEVER visited the United States while grow and was inculcated with hatred of this country.

According to this court, now, that person is a citizen of the United States. He can enter and leave the country as he pleases. He can travel the world on a United States passport.

Even if he plots to harm this country, he cannot be deprived of his status as a citizen, at least under current precedent.” — Justice Samuel Alito in his dissent

BREAKING NEWS: The Supreme Court upholds birthright citizenship, and Justice Thomas pens a POWERFUL dissent.

Thomas accuses the majority of “repurposing” the 14th Amendment “to protect its own set of preferred rights that the Reconstruction Congress never contemplated and that cannot find support in its text.”

“Today, the Court does so again by recognizing a constitutional right to citizenship for the children of all foreign birth tourists and illegal aliens.”

“I am not sure that today’s opinion will stand the test of time. The Citizenship Clause ‘added greatly to the dignity and glory of American citizenship.’ Today’s opinion devalues that citizenship.”

“I respectfully dissent.” ⬇️

Aside from legislation to end birthright citizenship, there are other bills proposed to end the birth tourism industry. These bills would disrupt profit-driven networks arranging travel, housing, medical care and visas for pregnant foreigners seeking U.S. citizenship for their children.

Key bills include Sen. Marsha Blackburn’s Ban Birth Tourism Act (S. 1812, 2025), which amends the INA to deem such visitors inadmissible on B visas, and Sen. John Cornyn’s BACK OFF Act (2026), which imposes criminal penalties on facilitators for fraud and organized schemes while creating a dedicated enforcement task force. (Just the News)

Congressman Chip Roy (TX-21) issued the following statement after the Supreme Court’s ruling on birthright citizenship in Trump v. Barbara.

“The Supreme Court, led by Chief Justice Roberts, failed the American people, the Constitution, and the rule of law today—not to mention the national security of the United States.

The 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution in no way stands for the proposition of creating a dangerous cottage industry of traveling to our soil to manufacture United States citizenship. That’s insane. The Supreme Court today should have said so explicitly and ended this damaging exploitation of our laws.

Congress must now immediately do at least two things it should have done long ago. First, define the phrase ‘subject to the jurisdiction thereof’ very specifically to make clear that citizenship is tied to the citizenship of the parent, not the soil. Second, completely restrict funding from DHS or any other agency or state that provides documentation and status to anyone not subject to the ‘jurisdiction thereof.’ In other words, Congress must act immediately and must not hide behind the fiction that it must amend the Constitution to fix this abuse of our laws. To do otherwise would be an abject failure of the United States Congress,” said Rep. Roy.

QUADRUPLE BQQM… this is absolutely YUGE… follow me in this… it’s worth it…

This is a Supreme Court exposure operation as much as it is a senatorial pressure campaign…

The official ruling was 6–3 against Trump’s executive order, yet the constitutional wall beneath it stands only 5–4… that distinction is the decode…

Roberts, Barrett and the three liberal justices ruled that the Fourteenth Amendment guarantees citizenship to children born here even when their parents are unlawfully or temporarily present…

Kavanaugh supplied the sixth vote to stop the order while rejecting the majority’s constitutional reasoning. In his view, the order does not violate the Fourteenth Amendment… it fails because it conflicts with the federal citizenship statute enacted by Congress…

Four justices are now publicly on record that the Constitution leaves Congress room to restrict birthright citizenship… Kavanaugh then moved the pressure upstream by making clear Congress can amend 8 USC §1401(a), create exceptions for children born to foreign citizens unlawfully or temporarily inside the country and force the question back before the Court…

Trump forced the issue through the executive branch, the Court exposed its internal fault line, Kavanaugh identified the statutory barrier and placed the legislative key in the hands of the Senate…

The order was blocked because Congress left the law untouched… now every senator owns that decision…

Thomas followed with a 91-page constitutional foundation tracing citizenship through allegiance, jurisdiction, domicile, the Civil Rights Act of 1866, the Fourteenth Amendment debates and the limits of Wong Kim Ark…

He was building the record for the next case while warning that this ruling may not stand the test of time because it devalues American citizenship…

Alito translated the doctrine into national security reality… a mother enters long enough to give birth, returns to a strategic adversary, raises the child outside America and teaches that child to hate the United States… yet under the majority’s ruling, that person remains an American citizen with the passport, entry rights and political privileges attached to that status…

Thomas built the record, Alito exposed the consequence and Kavanaugh revealed the congressional mechanism… Roberts and Barrett supplied the decisive votes preserving the barrier…

Now follow the ladder…

Citizenship establishes membership, membership opens voter registration, registration creates ballot access, ballots determine representation, representation controls Congress and Congress writes the laws governing citizenship and elections…

That is why birthright citizenship legislation and the SAVE America Act are separate rails inside the same sovereignty system…

One determines who enters the political body… the other verifies citizenship before political power is exercised…

Birthright legislation defines membership, while the SAVE America Act protects the franchise through documentary proof of citizenship, voter identification, voter roll controls and election safeguards…

SCOTUS has exposed both ends of the political power chain… who becomes a citizen and how ballots are accepted and counted…

Senators can no longer hide behind the Court, presidential authority or claims that Congress lacks power… the ruling exposed the fracture, Kavanaugh explained why executive action was insufficient and the sixth vote identified Congress as the institution capable of changing the law…

The ruling did not close the issue… it exposed the entire ladder…

A 6–3 loss became a 5–4 constitutional fracture, a four-justice roadmap, a 91-page foundation, a national security warning and a direct legislative handoff to senators who must now place their names beside action or surrender…

The order was blocked… the architecture was revealed… the pressure moved upstream…

The Senate owns the outcome, watch video and read below…

Trump vs Slaughter

Democrats everywhere:

“You MAGAs are really going to regret Trump v. Slaughter when a Democrat gets elected President and he/she fires all the Republicans😡😡😡😡!!!!!”

NOPE.

They just do not get it. We already have a federal administrative bureaucracy already completely and totally controlled by Democrats in every imaginable way.

At least now when a Republican is President we’ll have some modicum of control, and when a Democrat is President it will be the current status quo.

Big improvement.

The biggest and most consequential Decision issued by the Court, by far, is the Slaughter Case, which overturned the very famous Humphrey’s Executor Rule. This whole concept of “Power” has been fought over for nearly 100 years, going all the way back to Franklin Delano Roosevelt, where a large slice of his Power was taken away. He fought to regain it, even wanting to “pack the Court,” but was unsuccessful in doing so. This Decision gives tremendous additional Power back to the Presidency, where it belongs. It is an Honor to be the sitting President who, after all these years, WON this very important, and hard fought, Case. We had other good Victories, too, and we also had the Birthright Citizenship loss, which we will work to correct in Congress, but the big SLAUGHTER, was SLAUGHTER. The Republican Party was treated very fairly by the United States Supreme Court. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Mail-in Ballots and Election Day 

Election Integrity: Does Election Day Mean Election DAY?

SCOTUS: Nope https://supremecourt.gov/opinions/25pdf/24-1260_g3cn.pdf

WATSON, MISSISSIPPI SECRETARY OF STATE v.
REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE ET AL.

Held: The federal election-day statutes do not prevent Mississippi from counting absentee ballots postmarked by election day but received up to five days thereafter; nothing in the federal election-day statutes requires ballots to be received by election day. The question before the Court is narrow: whether counting ballots postmarked by election day, but received up to five days later, violates the federal election-day statutes.

The electorate’s choice is made when voting is complete, not when ballots are received. The most recent amendment to the Presidential election-day statute bears this out. While inserting the phrase “election day” into the statute and marking that date as a specific Tuesday, Congress also provided that when States “modif[y] the period of voting” in response to certain force majeure events, the term “election day” shall “include the modified period of voting.”

The federal election-day statutes do not preempt Mississippi’s law because the defining element of an “election” has always been the electorate’s choice of candidate. And a related federal statute—the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA)— confirms that while federal law dictates when ballots must be cast, state law governs when they must be received.

July 1, 2026 – Governor Tim Walz pardons criminal illegal alien convicted of sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl and prevents his deportation

Tou Lue Vang

Governor Walz’s pardon removes this child rapist’s qualifying convictions that made him removable from the United States.

WASHINGTON – The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released the following statement condemning Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and his fellow sanctuary politicians after they granted a pardon for an illegal alien who had been convicted of repeatedly sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl.

On June 10, 2026, the Minnesota Clemency Review Commission voted to grant a pardon for Tou Lue Vang, a criminal illegal alien from Laos. Vang had been convicted in 2006 offirst-degree criminal sexual conduct.

Vang was set to be removed from the country imminently after the pardon was announced. Now, the pardon could thwart his removal from the United States.

The letter from the Minnesota Clemency Review Commission announcing Vang’s pardon

According to court filings, Vang repeatedly sexually assaulted a girl between 2002 and 2004. On one occasion, he tried to offer his victim $10 to keep quiet about the sexual assaults. While being interviewed by police, he tried to justify his actions by saying that for him “it is a cultural thing…to marry and have sex with girls as young as 12.” He also claimed that the victim was just as guilty as him and should also be arrested.

Following his conviction, a Department of Justice (DOJ) Immigration Judge issued Vang a final order of removal on October 31, 2006.

“Governor Tim Walz’s decision to pardon an illegal alien convicted child rapist so he can remain in our country is disgusting,” said Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis. “These are the criminal illegal aliens he and his Minnesota sanctuary politicians are protecting. Tou Lue Vang lost his legal status following his conviction for repeatedly sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl. Following the conviction, he was placed in removal proceedings and issued a final order of removal by a judge. This pardon will take away this child rapist’s qualifying convictions that made him removable from the United States.”

Vang entered the United States in California in 1994 and was granted legal status by the Clinton Administration. That status was revoked upon his conviction and final order of removal in 2006.

This is not the first instance of the Clemency Review Commission granting a pardon to an illegal alien with a dangerous criminal history. In May, Minnesota pardoned Jai Vang, a criminal illegal alien from Laos, whose criminal record includes convictions for robbery, robbery of a business with a gun, and driving under the influence of liquor.

July 1, 2026 – Buffalo city hall in NY raises a Somalia flag one day after canceling July 4th fireworks

July 1, 2026 – John Brennan sues Trump administration over Russiagate probe – Lawsuit assigned to anti-Trump Judge Jia Cobb

Former CIA Director John Brennan filed a lawsuit against President Trump, the Justice Department, and senior administration officials on Wednesday over the Justice Department’s criminal investigation into him.

Brennan filed the lawsuit in the US District Court for the District of Columbia, claiming that he has been “vindictively singled out for investigation and prosecution.”

He is seeking a court order requiring the White House, Justice Department, ODNI, and the CIA to “preserve materials and communications potentially relevant to Director Brennan’s legal and constitutional challenges to any future criminal charges.”

Judge Jia Cobb (Credit: public domain)

The case has been assigned to far-left Biden-appointed Judge Jia Cobb. Cobb previously oversaw Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook’s lawsuit against the Trump Administration, blocked the Trump Administration from carrying out expedited deportations of illegal aliens under his “Protecting the American People Against Invasion” Executive Order, and blocked Trump’s National Guard deployment in Washington, DC.

“This Administration has adopted a policy of using criminal process and prosecution to punish the President’s perceived adversaries,” the 46-page filing begins. “It is against this backdrop that former Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, John O. Brennan (“Plaintiff” or “Director Brennan”), is being vindictively singled out for investigation and prosecution.”

It further points to the investigation of former Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell and an ongoing investigation into Minnesota officials, arguing that, likewise, “the evidence of vindictiveness in this matter is overwhelming.”

“President Trump has been condemning and calling for Director Brennan’s prosecution for years,” it reads. “Given these strong indicia of vindictiveness, Director Brennan expects that he will forcefully challenge any eventual indictment as the product of an unconstitutionally vindictive and selective prosecution.”

July 2, 2026 – Kash Patel reports 29,000 violent gang members have been arrested and 2,700 gangs nationwide are dismantled

“We’ve arrested 29,000 violent gang members since President Trump was sworn in.”

FBI Director Kash Patel says the bureau has helped dismantle 2,700 gangs nationwide since President Trump took office, calling it a 365% increase over the same point in the previous administration.

Patel also said arrests tied to Venezuela’s Tren de Aragua gang are up 519%, with hundreds of alleged members arrested on charges ranging from kidnapping and murder to drug trafficking and firearms offenses.

“We are safeguarding American citizens and American communities because President Trump decided to put law enforcement first.”

For those who don’t understand, the Deep State essentially had a standing army within our walls, in the form of MS13, TdA, ISIS, etc., that walked freely across our southern border.

The Trump FBI have been quietly cleaning up this network of Deep State insurgents that have embedded themselves within our nation. This is a necessary step before any high-profile arrests can take place.

We were told this is exactly how it would go down also, if you cared to pay attention. Q told us that we would first have to secure the nation, safeguard the public, shift the narrative, remove the rats in DC, remove ISIS/MS13 to prevent their fail-safes (widespread violence/chaos), etc.

We have to clean up all the pawns, knights, bishops, and rooks, before we can safely take the king.

So for those complaining where the big arrests are, you have to see the big picture. But you should also be excited, because the prerequisite steps to carry out the big arrests, are happening. US MIL/NG around the country, the MS13/ISIS insurgency network is being cleaned up, and public opinion has been shifting in our favor for years.

It’s happening.

July 2, 2026 – The National Legal and Policy Center files a bar complaint against Roberta Kaplan (E. Jean Carroll’s attorney) for violating the Rules of Professional Conduct

NLPC today filed a complaint with the Attorney Grievance Committee (AGC) of the New York State Supreme Court against Roberta Ann Kaplan for violating the Rules of Professional Conduct regarding the outside funding of E. Jean Carroll’s two defamation lawsuits against President Trump. The lawsuits were funded by left-wing billionaire Reid Hoffman through a nonprofit called American Future Republic.

July 2, 2026 – Hillary Clinton urges federal employees to defy Trump’s acting DNI Bill Pulte

Bill Pulte — the FHFA director tapped as acting Director of National Intelligence after Tulsi Gabbard stepped aside at the end of June, holding the seat until Trump nominee Jay Clayton is confirmed — drew a remarkable response from Hillary Clinton. She called him “𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘥𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘴” and a “𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯𝘯𝘰𝘯”, then went further than criticism.

“𝘐 𝘩𝘰𝘱𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘳 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘱𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘦𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘴𝘭𝘰𝘸-𝘸𝘢𝘭𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘳 𝘳𝘦𝘧𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘗𝘶𝘭𝘵𝘦. 𝘐 𝘥𝘰𝘯’𝘵 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘸𝘩𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘴𝘯’𝘵 𝘣𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘢 𝘭𝘢𝘸𝘴𝘶𝘪𝘵 𝘣𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵.

Set aside the merits of Pulte’s qualifications for a moment and read what Clinton actually said: a 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 publicly hoping that federal employees withhold information from their own director and inviting a lawsuit to block him. That is not policy criticism. That is a former Cabinet official encouraging the intelligence bureaucracy to obstruct a lawfully appointed official.

Pulte, for his part, has not been shy about using the post — he has already sent criminal referrals to DOJ alleging mortgage fraud against several of the administration’s political opponents. Clinton’s complaint may be less about his resume and more about what he’s been doing with the job.

July 3, 2026 – The FBI infiltrates CA governor Newsom’s inner circle and uses Alex Podesta to secretly record conversations

Newsom’s former chief-of-staff Dana Williamson (l) and Alexis Podesta (r) (Credit: public domain)

Where the bodies are buried in the biggest political and financial scandal in California history: The federal investigation of Greedy Gavin Newsom and his main squeeze “first partner” Jennifer Siebel Newsom and their inner circle, and the prosecution of state operatives linked to Newsom and Democrat gubernatorial candidate Xavier Becerra is about to get a whole lot bigger, as in “off the charts” bigger.

The FBI had a mole inside Greedy Gavin Newsom’s political orbit before the FBI’s corruption probe expanded into Newsom and his wife.

Democrat insider and Newsom ally, Alexis Podesta, 45, secretly recorded conversations during the criminal probe into Newsom’s then-chief of staff, Dana Williamson, 53, who pleaded guilty to federal fraud and tax charges in May, according to Williamson’s attorney.

The revelation that Podesta was wearing a wire as far back as June 2024 explains why a swath of Sacramento political insiders and lobbyists were stunned to receive FBI letters last fall informing them that their phone calls had been intercepted during the investigation — despite many having little or no connection to Williamson.

“Alexis wore a wire, and Dana did not,” said McGregor Scott, Williamson’s lawyer and a former US attorney for the Eastern District of California, which is now investigating the Newsoms.

The federal investigation involving Alexis Podesta is far bigger, deeper and wider than anyone could imagine.

Alexis Podesta has worked inside of the Sacramento Swamp and the DC Swamp for decades.

Every corrupt, catastrophic and disastrous policy in Sacramento during Greedy Gavin Newsom’s tenure as governor has Alexis Podesta’s fingerprints on it.

The archives from former California Governor Jerry Brown’s administration from 2015 reveals Alexis Podesta’s lengthy, paid role in Sacramento and Washington DC.

On Jun 05, 2015, Gov. Jerry Brown made the following appointment:

Alexis Podesta, 34, of Sacramento, has been appointed undersecretary at the California Business, Consumer Services and Housing Agency. Podesta has served as director of external affairs and international affairs and chief of protocol in the Office of Governor Edmund G. Brown Jr. since 2011. She was a special assistant to the senior vice president of public affairs and senior advisor to the chairman and chief executive officer at Pacific Gas and Electric Company from 2009 to 2011 and was manager of government relations at the Walt Disney Company from 2007 to 2009. Podesta served as director of scheduling in the Office of U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein from 2002 to 2007. This position does not require Senate confirmation and the compensation is $141,024. Podesta is a Democrat.

The database Transparent California reveals that Alexis Podesta has raked in a fortune from California taxpayers. Between 2015 and 2024, Alexis Podesta was paid nearly $1.6 million during her California state bureaucratic appointments (Screenshot 1).

Alexis Podesta’s company, Podesta Company, LLC, is a Sacramento-based strategic government affairs, regulatory consulting, and public policy firm. The list of California governmental agencies that Podesta’s firm has been involved with reads like a who’s who of every disastrous bureaucratic nightmare in California under Gavin Newsom (Screenshot 2).

Screenshot 3 reveals the depth of Podesta’s involvement in the Sacramento Swamp. A delegation of California Democrat bureacrats linked to Jerry Brown and Gavin Newsom for a gubernatorial trade mission to Mexico included Alexis Podesta.

Alexis Podesta’s injurious claws in Sacramento have inflicted great damage on California taxpayers and residents. Irrespective of her revealed cooperation with the FBI in the agencies growing investigation, she does know where all the bodies are buried, but she deserves no sympathy.

Podesta’s maiden name is Alexis Wilson. Her husband is Joshua Podesta. Joshua Podesta is registered as a co-manager with Alexis is their firm Podesta Company, LLC (Screenshot 4).

July 3, 2026 – Mamdani gives speech on America’s 250th birthday; calls Americans small, weak and unoriginal

This isn’t patriotism.

Mamdani is a deliberately attempting to redefine patriotism into opposition to the country itself: its history, its institutions, and its authority.

Mamdani calls patriotism “every act of righteous dissent,” then yesterday framed the country through a lens of oligarchs, exploitation, exclusion, monopolies, and even “masked agents terrorizing streets.”

Mamdani made it clear to his Marxist followers that America isn’t something worth honoring or defending.

He portrayed America as fundamentally corrupt, something that must be constantly attacked, dismantled, and remade.

Patriotism cannot be reduced to endless grievance, protest, and opposition.

You don’t preserve a nation by teaching people to see its own country as an enemy.

Keeping the symbols (sitting behind Washington’s desk) while hollowing out their meaning is exactly what makes Yuri Bezmenov’s warning resonate decades later.

Demoralization doesn’t always look like burning flags.

Sometimes it’s convincing people that contempt for their own country is the highest form of loyalty.

President Trump is GOING OFF on communists like Mamdani, who are attacking our country on our 250th

“Communism is a MORTAL THREAT to American liberty. It is the greatest threat to our country.”

“It’s the enemy of the CONSTITUTION. Above all, it’s the enemy of July 4, 1776.”

“Even while the radicals and extremists attack our incredible history at every turn, they are silent on the MISERABLE history of Communism itself.

Because it NEVER worked for thousands of years.”

“Our heroes died to win, build and to save and to build truly a great country.

“The greatest country ever in the WORLD.

So on the eve of this 250th anniversary of American heritage, we resolve and swear for all to hear that the citizens of the United States of America will vanquish Communism quickly.

Don’t let them take too much of your time.” 🇺🇸

Everyone’s clowning on Commie Mamdani for having Washington’s desk backwards in this hostage video, but it’s deliberate.

It’s meant to be this way: you are Washington, looking at the carpetbagger who came to your desk to tell you he hates your country and he’s got demands.

I asked Anthropic’s most expensive and intelligent model, Fable 5, to write a response to Mamdani’s speech as if it were George Washington…

To the Mayor of the City of New-York
Mount Vernon, 3d of July, 2026.

Sir,

Intelligence has reached me that you have lately seated yourself at my desk in the City Hall of New-York, with its face turned toward the publick eye, and that from this station, upon the eve of the 250th anniversary of our Independence, you delivered an address to the Citizens of that City. I have read it with attention. I confess I did not expect that these memorials would be employed in the service of principles so opposite to those by which I endeavoured to govern my publick life; and he who makes use of the memorials of the dead assumes an obligation to the principles for which they are remembered. It is upon that obligation, Sir, that I now address you, with a plainness the occasion demands.

Let me first render what justice requires. Your account of the retreat from Brooklyn is correct in its facts; I was the last to leave that shore, and the deliverance was as providential as you describe. Nor shall I quarrel with your praise of those who have passed through the Narrows in hope of beginning anew; I have myself written that the bosom of America is open to receive not the opulent and respectable stranger only, but the oppressed and persecuted of all nations and religions. Had you stopped there, I should have had no cause to write. You did not stop there.

For having borrowed my desk, my city, and the memory of my retreat, you proceeded to employ them in the service of the very doctrine against which I spent the labour of my publick life. Your address divides the People of America into two nations: the many, whom you flatter, and the few, whom you teach the many to abhor. You speak of soft hands and calloused hands, of men of immense fortune who have taken what the multitude have made. I have seen this rhetorick before; it was old when I was young. It is the eternal grammar of the demagogue, under every government and in every age; and I warned my Countrymen, in the last address I ever gave them, that the disorders and miseries of faction gradually incline the minds of men to seek security in the absolute power of an individual, and that cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men would ride that spirit to their own elevation upon the ruins of Publick Liberty. I ask you plainly, Sir: when you teach the labourer that his prosperous neighbour is his enemy, whose elevation do you serve?

You will answer that you speak for the poor, the sick, the tenant beneath the leaking ceiling; and the condition of that man commands my sympathy as it commands yours. But the remedy you propose has been tried, in the centuries since my time, with a thoroughness I could never have imagined. Wherever men have been persuaded that property is plunder, property has fled, and want has remained; wherever the State has been made the master of industry, it has soon made itself the master of the men who labour in it. An hereditary aristocracy I opposed, and I hold no tenderness for privilege; but the security of property is among the first objects of Government, and the man who would make one class of Citizens the spoil of another has abandoned republicanism for a science older and darker, whatever new name the age may fix upon it. Nor can I pass over the manner of the thing. To greet new Citizens, upon the very day of their adoption, with an inventory of their Country’s crimes, is to give them a most unhappy first lesson in the duties of citizenship; and I know of no household, no army, and no Republic that was ever held together by such instruction.

Permit me, before I close, one observation upon the desk itself. It was at such a desk, in Annapolis, in December of 1783, that I performed the only act of my life in which I take an unmixed pride: I returned my commission to the Congress, and with it every power the war had gathered into my hands, and went home to my farm. The desk of a republican officer is a place for the laying down of power; the men of my generation understood this, and it is the whole of what we added to the history of government. I observe in your address a great fluency concerning what the People are owed, and a great silence concerning what their Magistrates must surrender. When you have sat at my desk long enough to learn its principal lesson, Sir, you will be welcome to it.

I do not question your talents, which are considerable, nor the sincerity of your attachments, which is no defence; the most dangerous errours have ever been sincerely held. I tell you, with the freedom of a man who has nothing further to seek from any publick, that he who kindles the jealousy of Citizen against Citizen, though he kindle it in the name of Liberty, is burning the timbers of the ship he claims to steer. May Providence grant you the discernment to know it, the firmness to act upon it, and the candour to acknowledge it; and may the Union, purchased by so much sacrifice, never be surrendered to those who would divide it in the name of saving it.

I have the honour to be, with due respect, Sir, Your most obedient and most humble servant,

Go: Washington

July 3, 2026 – Spencer Pratt responds to Mamdani speech; Elon Musk responds with Reagan speech on communism

HOLY SMOKES. Spencer Pratt just OBLITERATED Communist Ugandan Mayor Mamdani for 5 minutes straight

“F*CK YOU, COMMUNIST! This is OUR HOME and YOU CAN’T HAVE IT.”

“Commie Mamdani’s ancestors NEVER BLED FOR THIS COUNTRY. He has no history here. So he has no attachment to our home. He has no place to rewrite our history and lecture us about what our country stands for!” 🔥🔥🔥

“We aren’t cowards. We don’t turn our backs on the painful memories because they make us who we are. Be proud of our country, damn it!”

“We all had to sit and watch that vile commie mayor sit on the wrong side of our founding father’s desk to try and lecture us about our own history!”

“Notice how the communists always attacks your history. The communists must attack YOUR history.”

“Why? Because history is what anchors you. It’s what makes us attached to something.”

“Erasing history is how you demoralize people, how you unmoor them, and detach them from their society, so you can take it from them and rewrite it in your image!”

“Communism is an evil anti-human religion. So it must destroy what makes us human. The Communist destroys your history so he can take your home and rebuild it in his image.”

“That’s why it’s your patriotic duty to celebrate today unashamed. It’s okay to love America. Not only is it okay to love America, it’s necessary to love America.”

“Our history is violent. F*ck yeah it is. And that’s why we love it!”

“Not only is it a miracle that this radical experiment itself, governance even survived past 1776. But we are the champions of the world. Be proud of that.”

“Be proud of your history. Millions of your ancestors fought and died to preserve it.

“So celebrate today. Show some American pride. Honor your history. Raise your flag”

“Today we celebrate our Independence Day. God bless America.”

July 4, 2026 – Bill Clinton writes a nasty message to half the country on America’s 250th anniversary

Bill Clinton wrote an extremely disappointing statement today and politicized the 250th anniversary of the United States. Here is one excerpt:

Our road from 1776 to today has been, in Abraham Lincoln’s words, piled high with difficulty. At every turn, there have been forces of reaction seeking to claw back the extension of our rights and liberties to more people, but by and large, thanks to celebrated leaders and everyday Americans alike, we have stumbled in the right direction, widening the circle of opportunity, deepening the meaning of freedom, and strengthening the bonds of our community.

Today we celebrate the milestone amid another period of deep division, renewed questions about America’s future and role in the world, and serious threats to our institutions and our democracy itself. The people in charge have unleashed masked agents on American communities to seize people from their homes, workplaces, and the street. They have started an unconstitutional war on a whim with no clear objectives or exit strategy and zero regard for the consequences to the lives of millions of people around the world.

With the help of lifetime appointees to the Supreme Court and a compliant Congress, they have weaponized government to settle personal scores, prosecute enemies, stamp out free speech, and make the federal government a new profit center for themselves and their allies. Their new deal is socialism for the super-rich and their own enrichment, even if it means increasing poverty, inequality, and illness at home and around the world. world. They also want to rewrite history to ignore

Where would you start in rebutting this? It sounds like he is talking about their socialist/communist selves. The unleashed masked agents are ICE, trying to deport the illegal alien criminals they unleashed on us with open borders and no vetting. They are masked to protect their lives and their families’ lives. They were being doxxed and attacked.

The Democrat Party has sunk so low and fallen so far. They are unrecognizable. Democrats changed when they realized foreigners voted for them. They don’t care if they are criminals killing Americans.

Hello Mr. Clinton,

I’m not going to extend to you the courtesy that your paragraph about lawfare extends to Trump supporters. Because I’ve studied enough of you, to know what you are truly about.

You were President during the post-Cold War sugar high. I have it thoroughly documented that you and your administration met with George Soros frequently, and in short term changed your policy positions to fit whatever George Soros proposed.

Which was: continuous military intervention all over the world. Starting with the bombing of Yugoslavia. You were the original neoconservative. Madeline Albright used “open society” phrasing in communicating your foreign policy documents. You are a part of the long string of failures of nation-building in the name of democracy, the Western interventions that resulted in millions of mass migrants overwhelming our borders, artificial famines, and us building the infrastructure that enabled China to take over the Africa continent and extract African resources for themselves.

But. Most of all. Those of us — and there are a good deal many of us — who have been ruined by lawfare. @GenFlynn sacrificed everything. @JeffClarkUS has had his life ruined and is still rebuilding. At the end of the day, only one President has been the subject of repeated assassination attempts and eighty-plus indictments – and it’s President Trump. Not anyone in your orbit.

Seriously, Bill. What do you think when you see that a Democrat gets indicted by a grand jury, and a judge inevitably overturns that indictment on grounds that nobody has heard of? “Oh wow the judges are so wise and saw right through a jury of peers! And that wisdom coincidentally happens to always fall on party lines!” Give me a break.

Every single one of us on the right-wing side knows that when your side regains power, your side will turn the full might of lawfare on us. You will cheer on mass incarcerations. You openly brag about that. You even toe the line of threatening to jail current military members if they don’t refuse orders from Pete Hegseth.

You are the evil one here. You cheer on the burning of our cities. You cheer on lawfare of Republicans. You never apologized for the millions of lives disrupted all over the world. You never say a word about the billions or even trillions of dollars that have been robbed by your friends through corrupt NGOs.

The fact that none of you are in jail, proves that we are the powerless ones here. You’re just afraid that someone sees you for you who are, and you secretly know that image is ugly.

July 4, 2026 – Patriot Front goobers appear in DC on America’s 250th birthday; Elon Musk and Senator Mike Lee say it’s another SPLC false flag

The left needs to believe that the Patriot Front goobers are MAGA because it satisfies their delusional confirmation bias.

For starters, we don’t wear masks much less march around like uniformed idiot feds in disguise.

And then you have the fact that no one in MAGA nation knows anyone associated with these losers. And I mean NO ONE.

But what we do know that the SLPC (and those aligned with them) fund activities and interests that help them frame their ideological foes (us) via astroturfed “conservative” operations.

This rancid theater production plays into the narratives their partners in crime over in the fake news industry sell to the dopes that swallow the manufactured slop they generate hook, line, and sinker… thus completing the frenzied orgy of manufactured self-fulfilling outrage that fuels the left.

It true to them b/c they need to believe that it is.

Rosa Parks Volume 2: Bernita Bowlding.

In the latest chapter of manufactured outrage, a single photo from a Washington D.C. Metro train on July 4, 2026, has been hailed as an iconic image of modern America.

A Black woman sits calmly, surrounded by masked members of the white nationalist group Patriot Front. A Reuters photographer conveniently ready with camera in hand to capture the moment.

Viral posts from left-leaning activists and media outlets quickly dubbed it a powerful symbol, a modern-day Rosa Parks staring down extremists on America’s 250th Independence Day.

The widely shared image shows Bernita A. Bowlding, 33, a patient worker for the Maryland Department of Health, seated upright and composed amid the sea of tactical gear, masks, and patriotic patches.

News outlets framed it as one unmasked commuter versus a group of nationalists. But video circulating from the same train paints a different picture.

In segments posted online, Bowlding appears on the floor, kneeling, displaying erratic, and distressed behavior before the main group draws focus. Once the Patriot Front members are on board, she sits among them with no reported incident. No heroic confrontation. No stand for justice. Just a packed train journey on a holiday weekend.

Bowlding isn’t some random everyday hero. On July 18, 2024, she was arrested in Arlington County, Virginia, and booked on a charge of indecent exposure. Her mugshot is now making the rounds alongside the Metro photo.

Bowlding herself hasn’t publicly commented, and the full police report or court outcome from her 2024 arrest remains limited.

The whole saga illustrates how quickly a random, mundane subway encounter can be seized upon, inflated, and transformed into powerful political symbolism, especially when it aligns so neatly with the preferred framing of racial tension and one-sided victimhood.

The real story isn’t heroic, it’s how quickly facts and context are discarded when the optics serve the preferred script.

July 4, 2026 – Profound quotes by James Madison on America’s 250th anniversary

James Madison

James Madison (1751-1836) is arguably the greatest political thinker ever. No one else has anywhere near as many profound quotes on the operation of government.

Madison got a quick start in politics, and on May 15, 1776, 25-year-old Madison voted for independence at the 5th Virginia Revolutionary Convention. The vote was unanimous, and then Richard Henry Lee famously presented the news to the Second Continental Congress in Philadelphia! Once Virginia was on board for independence, the Declaration of Independence soon followed.

Madison is the Father of the Constitution and the original author of the Bill of Rights. He co-authored the Federalist Papers.

He wrote the most celebrated essays of the Federalist Papers, Federalist #10 and # 51. He wrote other gems, including Federalist #45 and #62.

James Madison, along with his best friend Thomas Jefferson, was the driving force for religious liberty in America.

And as President of the United States (1809-1817), Madison actually followed the Constitution during the War of 1812.

James Madison had a long retirement of almost 20 years, answering questions about the Constitution from people all over the nation. Here are some of his most profound statements, with short commentary.

“Democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention; have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property; and have in general been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths.”

Federalist # 10

Thankfully, we are a republic, not a democracy.

I believe there are more instances of the abridgment of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power, than by violent and sudden usurpations.”

Virginia Ratification Convention, June 16, 1788

The convention eventually voted to ratify by a vote of 89-79, on June 25.

“Wherever the real power in a Government lies, there is the danger of oppression.”

Letter to Thomas Jefferson, October 17, 1788

Madison was warning Jefferson that oppression can come from other entities of government besides just a tyrant or dictator. This quote has manifest meaning for today, when it is often difficult discern who or what has the real power. (Read more: Joe Hoft/The Gateway Pundit, 7/4/2026)  (Archive)

July 5, 2026 – Graham Platner is accused of breaking into woman’s house and sexually assaulting her

Graham Platner and Jenny Racicot (Credit: public domain)

Jenny Racicot, 41, told Politico that while she and Platner had been involved in an “on-and-off relationship,” in 2021 he allegedly “entered her rural Maine home uninvited one night” while intoxicated. Platner allegedly “forced himself on her while she repeatedly told him to stop.”

“I remember him grabbing my pelvis and being really forceful of me,” Racicot explained to the outlet. “I remember the specific moment where I thought to myself, like, ‘This is no longer my choice.’”

Breitbart News reported in June that several women, including Lyndsey Fifield, and Racicot spoke to the New York Times about their past relationships with Platner.

While Fifield told the outlet that Platner “could be rough with her” and described an instance in which they were in an argument and “he twisted her arm behind her back, shoved her into a bedroom and held the door closed from the other side,” she said he “never hit” her.

The outlet said that according to Racicot, “In 2021 he arrived at her house drunk, after she had asked him not to come over.” Racicot also told the outlet that she found his behavior to be “reckless” and “unsettling.”

July 5, 2026 – CNN: It’s partisan to condemn communism

We are fresh off CNN’s sympathetic coverage of the funeral of terrorist Ali Khamenei and his family, when they come up with another humdinger. CNN thinks it’s partisan to condemn the totalitarian system of communism. It’s also partisan to push the SAVE Act, which calls for voter ID.

You can’t hate CNN enough.

We also have CNN’s Dana Bush defending the Olympian canoeist who ripped up a couple of feet of the reflecting pool. There were reputable eyewitnesses.

July 5, 2026 – How Ideological Capture at the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of American History Erases Our Heritage

The Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of American History

President Trump’s administration has been in an escalating public and policy conflict with the Smithsonian Institution—particularly its National Museum of American History (NMAH)—over how U.S. history is presented. This centers on accusations that the museum promotes “extreme political activism,” “radical” or “woke” ideology, and a narrative of national shame rather than balanced or patriotic storytelling. The fight intensified in 2025–2026 amid preparations for America’s 250th anniversary (July 4, 2026).

Timeline of Key Events

March 27, 2025: Trump signed Executive Order 14253, “Restoring Truth and Sanity to American History.” It directed the removal of “improper, divisive, or anti-American ideology” from Smithsonian museums and programs. The order criticized efforts to portray America’s founding principles and history as “inherently racist, sexist, oppressive, or otherwise irredeemably flawed,” aiming instead for content that celebrates liberty, individual rights, and national progress.

Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution Lonnie G. Bunch III (Credit: Wikipedia)

August 2025: The White House sent a letter to Smithsonian Secretary Lonnie G. Bunch III launching a comprehensive internal review of exhibits and materials across multiple museums (including NMAH). It demanded alignment with celebrating “American exceptionalism,” removing “divisive or partisan narratives,” and content corrections. Trump posted on Truth Social criticizing Smithsonian museums for focusing excessively on negatives like “how bad slavery was” while ignoring “Success, Brightness, [and] the Future.” He described them as “OUT OF CONTROL.”

Ongoing 2025–early 2026: Pressure continued with demands for exhibit plans (especially for the 250th anniversary), record submissions, and threats related to funding or oversight. Some exhibits were reportedly adjusted (e.g., reduced emphasis on certain modern political topics in other Smithsonian venues).

Director of the Smithsonian Instution Anthea Hartig (Credit:New York Times)

July 4–5, 2026: The White House Domestic Policy Council released a detailed 162-page report titled Saving America’s Story. It specifically targeted the NMAH, accusing its leadership (notably Director Anthea Hartig) of ideological capture, prioritizing activism over scholarship, and erasing or distorting America’s heritage.

Core Accusations in the July 2026 White House Report

The report’s main thesis is that the NMAH has shifted from objective history education to political activism rooted in frameworks that view America as fundamentally defined by injustice, oppression, and division (e.g., systemic racism, colonialism, gender/sexuality issues). It allegedly minimizes or omits inspiring elements of the founding era while emphasizing regret, tragedy, and shame.

Key criticisms include:

Downplaying the Founding: No major dedicated exhibits on the Founding Fathers (George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, etc.), the Continental Congress, the Revolution, or core documents like the Declaration of Independence and Constitution in a celebratory context. Founders are often introduced primarily through connections to slavery rather than their achievements or principles.

Specific exhibit examples (as cited in the report and coverage): Reframing of Pilgrims/Thanksgiving as colonial oppression or a “National Day of Mourning”; Columbus portrayed negatively; immigration exhibits (e.g., “Many Voices, One Nation” or Center for Restorative History initiatives) allegedly promoting pathways to citizenship for undocumented immigrants, “Abolish ICE” themes, or framing America as having “no single culture/narrative”; gender/sexuality content presenting fluidity or transgender topics in youth-oriented exhibits; emphasis on racial inequality, Indigenous displacement, and legacies of slavery/colonialism without sufficient counterbalancing of progress or unifying ideals.

Leadership critique: Hartig is quoted or referenced as viewing history as a “prime tool of social justice,” stating “loving America is very complicated,” and shifting the museum’s mission toward “empowering a just and compassionate future” by exploring “complexity” (often interpreted as focusing on flaws). The report alleges anti-white bias in staff training or framing (e.g., treating objectivity or traditional values as “white supremacy culture”) and partnerships or curricula seen as activist-oriented.

Broader impact: The museum allegedly divides Americans, fosters national shame, and fails its role as a federally supported institution to inspire unity and informed patriotism—especially problematic ahead of the 250th anniversary.

The report frames this as part of a larger pattern across the Smithsonian and calls for reforms to restore “truthful” history centered on achievements, founding principles, and a coherent national story while still acknowledging injustices.

July 6, 2026 – Ty Clevenger: A government attorney confirms several hundred pages of documents related to Seth Rich were found in a previously-hidden room at FBI headquarters

SETH RICH UPDATE: Today an attorney for the government told me that I would soon be getting confirmation that several hundred pages of documents related to Seth Rich were found in a previously-hidden room at FBI headquarters. You may recall that on July 30, 2025, Fox News Digital reported that newly-installed FBI Director Kash Patel and his leadership team had located an unmapped/sealed area within the J. Edgar Hoover Building’s SCIF.

Last year’s Fox report described “burn bags” that contained thousands of pages of classified files intended for destruction, and those files were linked back to the 2016 “Crossfire Hurricane” investigation. Now it appears the Seth Rich records were among the files designated for destruction.

Mind you, I don’t have anything in hand yet. I don’t even know whether the FBI will agree to release a single page of what it found. Nonetheless, any confirmation that the files were in the secret SCIF raises a lot of questions. At the very least, some very high-level people had something to hide.

The FBI originally told me in 2017 that it had no records whatsoever about Seth Rich because it was not involved in the investigation of his death. We were told he died in a “botched robbery” and only the local police were investigating it.

Since that time, the FBI has gradually admitted to possession of several thousand pages of documents about Seth, his work laptop, an image of his personal laptop, and another DVD. Nonetheless, on June 15, 2026, I had to file yet another motion  explaining how the FBI is withholding records in violation of court orders.

If the FBI is still fighting transparency so hard on other fronts (and it is), then why would it acknowledge that records about Seth had been hidden in the SCIF? I don’t know. Maybe Joe DiGenova’s grand jury investigation in Miami is putting some heat on the players in DC?

I can tell you this much for sure: nobody on Capitol Hill has been willing to touch this subject with a ten-foot pole. The murder of Seth Rich – and the resulting cover-up – is as radioactive as any topic I’ve ever seen. I hope that changes soon, and I’ll post updates as soon as I know more.

BTW, I’m not suicidal. I feel great.

July 6, 2026 – Police officer reveals “there’s 350 FBI agents on the scene” on Jan. 6 in newly released police body-cam footage

On Monday, Judicial Watch announced that the Washington, DC, Metropolitan Police Department released over 1,000 hours of body-worn camera footage in 1,630 videos from the January 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol event.

The videos were finally released recently, following the filing of the initial FOIA lawsuit in June 2024.

The videos are available via the Judicial Watch website.

** judicialwatch.org/january6bodycam
** judicialwatch.org/january-6-body

Already — We have a MAJOR FINDING from the police bodycam footage.

January 6 defendant and investigative journalist Tommy Tatum discovered police officers discussing the FBI agents in the crowd that day.

Tommy tweeted this out on Monday evening.

As one example of new information. At roughly 5:14PM that afternoon, bodycam footage from X6039BF3H contains audio of an officer saying “Do you have 350 FBI agents there right at this moment?” Background noise prohibits a clear understanding of the entire conversation. However, this proves some of the DC Metro Police were aware a large contingent of FBI representatives were onsite. Audio starts at 12:30 mark.

Tommy sent The Gateway Pundit the full VIMEO video from where this was taken – at the 12:30 minute mark.

Recall that former FBI Director Chris Wray lied and lectured House Republicans for accusing the FBI of planting informants/operatives/agents/cutouts inside the massive crowd of Trump supporters on January 6, 2021.

In a bold statement that directly contradicts multiple official sources, FBI Director Christopher Wray testified before Congress in July 2023 that he “does not believe” undercover FBI agents were present at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.

July 6, 2026 – Elon Musk supports the deportation of Islamic X streamer Sneako

@elonmusk has called for the deportation of Islamic streamer Sneako after Sneako was on video 4th of July weekend calling for an Islamic takeover of the US and for every household in America to become Muslim.

A couple months ago, I raised my concerns when Sneako said he had a direct line to @nikitabier at X and that he was an X streamer. I showed X how Sneako regularly promotes Islamic terrorism and violence, and I am glad their eyes have been opened. I am so grateful Elon Musk speaks out about the threat of Islam and I am grateful Nikita has started to crack down by demonetizing foreign accounts that are pretending to be American to divide America. We need to see a crackdown on X of the promotion of Islamic terrorism, and two of the biggest offenders are @sneako and Hasan Piker @hasanthehun.

Additionally, we really need to put pressure on Kick, whose CEO @BijanTehrani is Iranian! What type of Iranian CEO who claims to have family that fled Iran tolerates this pro-IRGC poison on their platform? Are you kidding me, Bijan?

Why does @kick pay Sneako nearly $200,000 per month to poison the minds of young men?

Also, how does Amazon @amazon AWS feel about this? Kick relies on AWS.

Is AWS really ok with Kick promoting Sneako as he encourages Islamic terrorism?

Sneako is a national security threat.

Please advocate for Hasan Piker to [b]e deported to Turkey next, @elonmusk!

July 6, 2026 – Kash Patel reports Operation New Dawn in Chicago executed 305 arrests and 24 children rescued

Operation New Dawn represents a massive, whole-of-government approach under President Trump’s leadership to cracking down on violent crimes and crimes against children in great American cities.

This was a sweeping operation in Chicago that brought together 11 different federal agencies across the government who worked together to execute 305 arrests and recover 24 children — many of whom had been reported kidnapped or missing — as well as charging subjects with robbery, kidnapping, drug trafficking, child exploitation and more.

The success of this op and more to come through initiatives like Summer Heat 2.0 should be a clear message that this FBI, our partners and the @TheJusticeDept led by @DAGToddBlanche are full throttle on crushing criminal networks in this country no matter where they are.

July 7, 2026 – An AI platform called GovGreed analyzes 190,000 congressional stock trades

For years, Americans have suspected that members of Congress were profiting from information unavailable to everyone else.

Now an AI platform called GovGreed has analyzed 190,000 congressional stock trades, 45,000 bills, campaign finance records, committee assignments, and voting histories, and the numbers are staggering.

According to the analysis:

📊 56% of all congressional stock purchases over the last 16 months, 6,170 out of 11,016 purchases, were in companies directly affected by legislation the buyer later voted on.

🏛️ 343 of 540 sitting members of Congress (63.8%) actively trade individual stocks while serving in office.

🚨 The AI identified 752 active “Triple Signals”, cases where a lawmaker:
• Sat on the committee overseeing a bill
• Traded stock in a company affected by that bill
• Received campaign donations from that same industry

According to the platform, bills with all three indicators passed at 5.4 times the normal rate.

And here’s what may be the most unbelievable statistic of all…

💵 The penalty for violating the STOCK Act is often just a $200 fine, and the analysis states no member of Congress has ever been prosecuted under the law.

Whether every conclusion drawn by this AI stands up to scrutiny remains to be seen. But the underlying trade disclosures, votes, and campaign finance records it analyzes are public.

The AI didn’t claim to uncover secret files.

It claims it organized public information into patterns that are difficult to ignore.

👀 Should members of Congress be permanently banned from trading individual stocks while in office?

July 7, 2026 – Arizona Supreme Court clarifies election authority in Maricopa County dispute

July 7, 2026

PHOENIX – The Arizona Supreme Court today issued an order in Heap v. Galvin, vacating a June
18, 2026 Court of Appeals stay and reinstating, with modifications, superior court injunctions governing the allocation of election-administration responsibilities between the Maricopa County Recorder and the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors.

The dispute concerns which county office has authority to perform election duties that Arizona statutes assign to “the county recorder or other officer in charge of elections.” Maricopa County Recorder Justin Heap argued that those duties belong to the Recorder or to an officer designated by the Recorder. The Board of Supervisors argued that its budget and administrative authority permitted it to assign those functions to a Board-appointed elections director.

The Court concluded that the Recorder is likely to prevail on the statutory-interpretation issue. Relying on Arizona precedent, the Court explained that a county board of supervisors may not use its funding authority to assume or reassign statutory responsibilities entrusted to an independently elected county officer. The Court reaffirmed that the Board has a nondiscretionary duty to fund necessary expenses of the Recorder and may not use budgetary control to displace duties assigned by law to the Recorder or an officer acting under the Recorder’s authority.

The Court also addressed election-timing concerns. The Court recognized that courts should exercise
caution before altering election procedures close to an election, particularly when early voting for the 2026 Primary Election is underway. But it concluded that those concerns do not replace Arizona’s stay analysis or determine which official has legal authority under Arizona law.

To minimize disruption, the Court reinstated the superior court injunctions as modified by the Recorder’s 12-point interim operational protocol. Those temporary procedures are intended to preserve continuity in the ongoing Primary Election while the appeal proceeds. The Court stated that either party may seek further interim modifications from the Court of Appeals.

The Court encouraged cooperation between county officials and emphasized the importance of
transparency, lawful administration, and public confidence in Arizona elections. Neither the reinstated, modified injunctions, nor this Court’s order, interferes with the public’s ability to vote in the primary or general elections. (Arizona Supreme Court, 7/7/2026)  (Archive)

July 8, 2026 – Justice Department vows criminal action against states that allow noncitizens to vote

Director of DOJ’s Civil Rights Division, Harmeet Dhillon (Credit: CQ-Roll Call via Getty Images)

The Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division sent letters to election officials across all 50 states, asking the state officials how they intend to comply with federal law to ensure that noncitizens do not vote. The DOJ gave every state five days to respond to the Department’s demands.

Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon wrote in the letters to state elections officials, “Any election officer, including the chief election officer of the state, who knowingly retains noncitizens on the state’s [state voter registration list] or facilitates noncitizens in receiving and casting ballots could be subject to criminal liability.”

She noted that it is a crime for two or more people to coordinate to deprive Americans of their constitutional rights.

“We encourage you to contact us to discuss what steps your state should take to maintain clean voter lists as required by law,” she continued.

The Justice Department sent their letters to the state elections officials as President Donald Trump has demanded that the Senate passes the SAVE America Act, a bill that would require Americans to show proof of citizenship in person to register to vote. He has vowed not to sign other bills into law unless the Senate passes his election integrity bill. “The Department sent these letters to all 50 states and the District of Columbia, asking for voluntary compliance in a timely manner with their obligations under federal law to ensure only citizens vote in federal elections,” a Justice Department spokesperson said.

July 8, 2026 – Members of Democratic Socialists of America: “The most important thing we can do is take America down from within”

July 8, 2026 – NYT tells adversaries that Airforce One did not have anti-missile countermeasures yet; journalists are subpoenaed to appear before grand jury

Four New York Times journalists have been subpoenaed to testify before a federal grand jury in Manhattan on Wednesday.

Julian E. Barnes. Eric Lipton. Tyler Pager. Eric Schmitt.

The subpoenas are connected to the leaking of confidential information involving Air Force One.

This is not about the First Amendment. It’s about accountability, the facts, and protecting the President and those serving in his Cabinet.

National security must always come first.

The subpoena was for four journalists for the New York Times who filed a PUBLIC report that President Trump’s new Air Force One airplane DID NOT HAVE anti-missile defense systems at the time it was used in the trip to the 2026 NATO Summit in Ankara, Turkey.

The FBI requested that the NYT not publish their article because it would compromise the presidential security detail in a designated hostile environment.

The NYT refused to withhold their reporting and did so KNOWING that it was compromising the security of a United States President. The NYT wanted to grouse about President Trump’s decision to convert a gifted Air Force One from Qatar, knowing that their report was a severe security compromise that would put the lives of those aboard the airplane at risk.

July 9, 2026 – A top official in Zohran Mamdani’s administration made plans to meet with Iran’s UN ambassador

Commissioner Ana María Archila was scheduled to meet with Amir-Saeid Iravani, Iran’s permanent representative to the United Nations, at 2 United Nations Plaza, alongside two other senior officials in the Mayor’s Office for International Affairs on July 7 at 11 a.m.—this according to screenshots of a calendar invitation reviewed by City Journal and confirmed by a source connected to the international affairs community and another familiar with Archila’s office. Another official within the State Department also confirmed awareness of the Mamdani administration’s impending engagement.

The meeting between Archila and Iravani was called off after the State Department—which was not informed ahead of time—met with the Mamdani administration to clarify acceptable conduct, according to the State Department official. City Journal learned that Commissioner Archila allegedly did not inform Mayor Mamdani of the meeting; she was reprimanded for the move and directed to cancel the meeting according to the source familiar with the office.

“This meeting did not and will not take place,” a spokesperson with the Mayor’s Office for International Affairs said in a statement. The Iranian mission did not return multiple requests for comment.

The development is a continuation of Commissioner Archila and the Mamdani administration’s ongoing use of public resources to advance an agenda that extends well beyond New York City. On April 16, a message seen by City Journal was sent to staff within the Mayor’s Office for International Affairs asking them to prioritize diplomatic engagement in part based on whether foreign officials “are . . . in political alignment/leftist.” The message confirms previous reporting by El País, noting that Archila has “focused . . . on deepening relations with foreign leaders who share Mamdani’s worldview.”

New York City officials did not originally envision the Mayor’s Office for International Affairs as a means of shaping foreign policy. Its purpose is to exchange best practices with other global cities, bring foreign businesses to the city, and support city government’s relationship with the entire diplomatic community residing in New York City, without regard to political ideology or party.

That makes Archila, who has no prior diplomatic experience, an unusual choice. Mamdani appointed her as commissioner after she had had an exhaustive career in activism and served as co-director of the progressive Working Families Party, whose official position is that the war in Iran “can and must be stopped.” (Read more: City Journal, 7/9/2026)  (Archive)  

July 8, 2026 – Sen. Grassley: Jack Smith team repeatedly mishandled classified information in his investigation into Trump’s mishandling of classified documents

(Credit: Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images, Alex Brandon/ AP)

Jack Smith’s team repeatedly mishandled classified materials in his investigation into Trump’s mishandling of classified documents.

Jack Smith indicted Trump on 37 federal counts in Miami in June 2023 for lawfully storing presidential records at his Mar-a-Lago estate which was protected by Secret Service agents.

(…) On Wednesday, Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley released messages showing Jack Smith mishandling classified documents.

“Messages obtained by U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) show personnel at the Biden U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), including personnel assigned to Jack Smith’s Special Counsel Office (SCO), potentially mishandled classified materials themselves amid Smith’s own investigation into President Trump’s alleged mishandling of classified documents,” Grassley’s office said.

The messages, provided by DOJ in response to Grassley’s oversight requests, reveal:

1) An individual was given access to classified materials without confirming they had the requisite “need to know.”

2) There was at least one instance in which the potential movement of classified materials housed in a DOJ sensitive compartment information facility (SCIF) was unaccounted for.

3) A “violation and incident” occurred when a SCIF accessible to SCO personnel was left open at least overnight and potentially longer.

“Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. According to these messages, Biden DOJ personnel may have committed the very offense for which Jack Smith was prosecuting President Trump,” Grassley said.

“These records expose yet another double standard of justice. While Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden escaped accountability for mishandling highly classified information, Jack Smith and the Biden DOJ set out to paint President Trump as a felon and ruin him politically. These and other records I’ve made public show the Biden Justice Department was unquestionably careless, not to mention highly hypocritical,” Grassley said.

July 9, 2026 – Trump calls for a SC rehearing on birthright citizenship after Texas hospital billboards in Mexico and in Spanish, offer foreign nationals “birth packages”

President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday that he will ask the Supreme Court to rehear its recent decision striking down his executive order restricting birthright citizenship, citing reports of billboards from US hospitals advertising childbirth packages to foreign nationals in Mexico.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump argued that such advertisements are an exploitation of birthright citizenship.

“Signs and Billboards are being put up all over our Southern Border, and Mexico, advertising BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP, with ‘Deliveries starting at $4000,’” Trump wrote. “Likewise, similar signs going up all over our Country. Billions of Dollars will be illegally made by this SCAM, with Citizenship going to anyone willing to pay. It will be, by far, the number one way of becoming a citizen, and then the entire family will be allowed to follow. Not sustainable. NOBODY SAW THIS COMING!!! AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP IS NOT FOR SALE!”

“In fact, that is a crime, and therefore, the Supreme Court’s ruling is wrong. I will be asking for a Rehearing by the United States Supreme Court, IMMEDIATELY,” Trump continued. “This miscarriage of justice will destroy America if they don’t change their absolutely insane decision.”

Trump’s comments refer to a reported advertising campaign by Mission Regional Medical Center in South Texas. On Tuesday, Texas Governor Greg Abbott called on the Texas Health and Human Services Commission to investigate the hospital.

NEW: A Texas hospital confirms to Fox News its behind billboards at the U.S.-Mexico border advertising childbirth services and encouraging expectant mothers to give birth in Texas. The Spanish-language billboards directed people to go to “http://havemybabyinTEXAS.com.”

The billboards put up by Mission Regional Medical Center featured a pregnant woman and promoted “Birth Packages in South Texas,” with deliveries starting at $3,950 for a natural birth and $5,525 for a C-section.

A spokesperson for the hospital said they had two billboards within five miles of the hospital near the border crossing but removed them Monday, along with the website, due to the “potential for unintended misunderstanding.”

The decision to take down the campaign follows backlash on social media after pictures of the billboard started to circulate.

The spokesperson also told me the campaign was initiated in 2021 but said it is unclear when the actual billboards were put up.

Official statement:

“Mission Regional Medical Center is committed to providing high-quality, compassionate healthcare and expanding access to care for the communities we serve. Like hospitals across the country and throughout the region, we share information about the healthcare services we provide. We do not support or facilitate any unlawful activity and work to comply with all applicable federal and state laws and regulations. The marketing materials regarding maternity services are no longer in use due to any unintended misunderstanding. We intend to work cooperatively and transparently with local and state officials. Our focus remains on delivering safe, high-quality care to every patient who seeks our services.”

July 9, 2026 – 12 different Somali gangs have committed gun violence all over Minnesota

Somali gangs in Minnesota committed murder and shootings on the 4th of July

12 different Somali gangs have been identified committing violence all over Minnesota, The majority of it is gun violence

“A Wilmer soccer coach was killed as part of Somali gang violence — There was 300 young Somali kids there, and some of them were gangsters”

“Investigators say Somali gang violence is growing fast and spans the metro with 12 Somali gangs from Minneapolis and St. Paul to St. Cloud to Apple Valley and Burnsville. Ramsey County tracking the violence within the Somali community. The majority of it is gun violence”

WOW I looked into this and found the 12 Somali gangs being tracked have already been linked to 14 homicides and over 100 shootings just in the last 2 years

Somali clans are traditional patrilineal kinship groups that structure identity, alliances, marriage, and mutual support in Somali culture. They stem from nomadic pastoral history in the Horn of Africa and often split into rival factions over resources and power, fueling Somalia’s civil wars. These divisions persist in diaspora communities.

In Minnesota’s large Somali population, some gangs (Somali Outlaws, Somali Mafia) form along clan lines. Ramsey County tracks 12 such gangs tied to gun violence, 14 homicides, and 100+ shootings in two years, driven by clan rivalries, youth status fights, social media, and refugee integration strains.

Similar clan-aligned gang issues appear in Ohio (Columbus, linked to MN groups), Washington (Seattle area), and California (San Diego), though Minnesota reports the most activity. (Grok)

July 10, 2026 – DOJ announces criminal indictment against 8 people for plotting terrorist attack against the White House during the UFC Freedom 250 event

BREAKING: DOJ has just announced a criminal indictment against 8 people for plotting a massive violent terror attack against the White House while President Trump was there

Up to LIFE IN PRISON.

NO MERCY. Maximum punishment!

“This alleged plot was DISRUPTED before it could be carried out.”

The plot was meant for the Freedom 250 UFC White House event — which went on AS PLANNED because the plot was foiled.

“The first count is a conspiracy to provide material support to terrorists by way of money, firearms, ammunition, body armor, explosives, drones, medical and communications equipment, as well as personnel with the knowledge and intent that those resources were to be used in preparation for and to carry out the m*rder of federal officers and employees in the course of an attack on a federal facility and the use of a weapon of mass destruction.”

“The second count is a conspiracy to commit m*rder on federal government territory and to m*rder a federal government official, including the President of the United States, the Vice President of the United States and members of Congress.”

“That second count is punishable by up to a lifetime of imprisonment.”

“The indictment details several overt acts allegedly committed by the defendants in May and June of this year, including acquiring and maintaining firearms, ammunition and body armor, meeting to train in marksmanship in combat tactics, meeting to provide firearms and other gear to each other, purchasing a 3D printer to make drones, making plans to travel together to Washington, D.C., and actually beginning travel to Washington, D.C.”

“The allegations in this indictment we allege show that these men were not simply airing grievances from behind their keyboards and sharing like-minded political ideologies.”

“Rather, they took action to carry out a plot to attack the UFC Freedom 250 event and to m*rder federal officials at the highest levels of our government.”

(…) The indictment alleges the defendants established a tiered structure for participants, with so-called “Tier One” members agreeing to “put themselves ‘in harms [sic] way, break the law, and potentially go into hiding.’”

Authorities say the group selected targets at the White House event and developed operational plans for both carrying out the attack and escaping afterward.

The eight defendants are Abraham H. Alvarez, 31, of Omaha, Nebraska; Daniel K. Eskridge, 32, of Hamilton, Missouri; William L.S. Falkner, 21, of Belfair, Washington; Tycen J. Proper, 19, of Danville, Ohio; Jordan W. Rincker, 28, of St. Joseph, Missouri; Bryan O. Roa, 25, of Calimesa, California; Chandler D. Scaggs, 21, of Chapmanville, West Virginia; and Michael A. Thomas, 32, of Pinon Hills, California.

Scaggs, who was arrested this week in West Virginia, was allegedly assigned to serve as one of the snipers during the attack.

Court documents allege he remained committed to participating even after Proper was arrested, and that he sought alternative transportation to Washington, D.C.

The indictment replaces earlier criminal complaints filed against the defendants in multiple federal districts.

If convicted, conspiracy to provide material support to terrorists carries a maximum sentence of 15 years in prison, while conspiracy to commit murder on federal property carries a potential sentence of life imprisonment. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 7/11/2026)  (Archive)

July 10, 2026 – The Texas Two Step: How Trump is Dealing with Senate Obstruction

Aaron Reitz (Credit: public domain)

On July 9, 2026, Aaron Reitz raised his right hand in Houston and took the oath as US Attorney for the Southern District of Texas. “Things are about to get very bad for criminals,” he promised, and given his record as a Marine, as Ken Paxton’s deputy in the Texas Attorney General’s office, and as head of the Justice Department’s Office of Legal Policy, there is little reason to doubt him. What deserves more attention than the oath itself is the elegant legal machinery that put him there. Two days earlier, Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche had appointed Reitz as interim US Attorney under 28 USC § 546, an appointment expressly limited to 120 days. Then the federal judges of the Southern District of Texas voted to appoint Reitz under a separate provision of the very same statute, an appointment that runs until a Senate-confirmed successor takes office. Call it the Texas Two Step.

Critics have already reached for the familiar vocabulary of scandal. They call it a loophole, a workaround, an end run around the Senate’s advice and consent role. Each of these words carries the same insinuation, that the administration found a crack in the law and squeezed through it. The insinuation is false, and demonstrating why it is false requires nothing more than reading the statute Congress wrote.

Begin with the ordinary process. Under 28 USC § 541, the president nominates a US Attorney, the Senate confirms, and the appointee serves a four-year term subject to presidential removal. But Congress understood that vacancies do not wait politely for the Senate calendar, so it built a second track. Under § 546, the attorney general may appoint an interim US Attorney for up to 120 days. If those 120 days expire without a confirmed successor, the statute is explicit about what happens next: the district court may appoint a US Attorney, and that appointee serves until the vacancy is filled through the normal presidential nomination and Senate confirmation process. The judicial appointment is not an improvisation. It is the statutory default that Congress itself selected for precisely the situation the Southern District faced.

A skeptical reader might pause here and ask whether judges appointing prosecutors can possibly be constitutional. It is a fair question, and it has a settled answer. The Appointments Clause permits Congress to vest the appointment of inferior officers “in the Courts of Law,” and it says so in exactly those words. The First Circuit upheld the judicial appointment mechanism for US Attorneys in United States v. Hilario in 2000, and no appellate court has held otherwise. The pedigree runs deeper still. Congress has authorized court appointment of interim US Attorneys in one form or another since the 19th century. When Congress briefly stripped the courts of this power in 2006 and handed the attorney general indefinite interim authority instead, the arrangement proved so unpopular that a bipartisan Congress restored the judicial mechanism in 2007 by overwhelming votes. In other words, the current statute reflects a deliberate, recent, and bipartisan congressional judgment that district judges should serve as the backstop when confirmations stall. The Trump administration did not discover a loophole. It read the instructions.

Now consider why the Southern District’s judges held this authority in the first place. The vacancy dates to January 19, 2025, when Biden appointee Alamdar Hamdani resigned. The Trump Justice Department installed Nicholas Ganjei as interim US Attorney on January 29, 2025, and when his 120 days ran out, the Southern District judges unanimously appointed him under § 546(d) on May 28, 2025. Ganjei was later elevated to the federal bench, First Assistant John Marck ran the office in an acting capacity, and Marck himself was confirmed to a district judgeship on June 24, 2026 by a 52 to 45 vote. Through all of it, no presidentially nominated and Senate-confirmed US Attorney ever filled the original Hamdani vacancy. The judges’ appointment power, having attached to that continuing vacancy, remained available. When they exercised it for Reitz, they were doing in 2026 exactly what they had done, unanimously and without controversy, in 2025.

Why, then, the second appointment from Blanche? Here the strategy shows its sophistication rather than any sleight of hand. Blanche’s July 7 order gave Reitz immediate authority to act, since a judicial appointment takes time to organize and a US Attorney’s office cannot sit headless while judges schedule a vote. The judicial appointment then supplies durability. There is a live legal question, sharpened by a 2025 ruling from a federal district court in Virginia, about whether the attorney general receives a fresh 120-day clock each time an interim appointee departs, or whether the appointment power shifts permanently to the district court once the first clock expires. That Virginia decision does not bind Texas courts, but a prudent litigator plans for the possibility that Texas judges might find it persuasive. By securing both appointments, the administration gave Reitz two independent legal foundations. A defendant who challenges Blanche’s authority runs into the judges’ appointment; a defendant who quibbles with the judges’ order runs into Blanche’s. Every indictment Reitz signs rests on redundant footings. This is not evasion of law. It is respect for law carried to the point of engineering.

The honest critic will raise Blanche’s own words against him. During a February 2026 fight over a court-appointed prosecutor in New York, Blanche wrote that judges do not pick US Attorneys, the president does. As a description of § 546(d), that statement was too broad, since Congress plainly gave judges an appointment role. But the underlying principle Blanche defended survives the rhetorical overreach. The constitutional concern with judicial appointments arises when courts install prosecutors over the executive’s objection, setting the judiciary against the president’s Article II control of law enforcement. Nothing of the kind happened in Houston. The judges reportedly appointed the very man the administration had already installed, and the president retains statutory removal authority over him regardless of who signed the appointment. Executive control was never diminished for a moment. The distinction between judges overriding the executive and judges cooperating with it is not a lawyer’s trick; it is the whole ballgame.

Nor should anyone accept the claim that Reitz now holds a permanent, unaccountable office. A court-appointed US Attorney serves only until a Senate-confirmed successor qualifies. The White House could send up a nominee tomorrow, the Senate could confirm him, and Reitz’s judicial appointment would dissolve by operation of the statute. The Senate has not been stripped of its advice and consent power. It has been stripped of something it never legitimately possessed, the power to keep one of the nation’s most consequential prosecutorial offices vacant indefinitely. Reitz himself, it is worth adding, has already faced the Senate and won, confirmed 52 to 46 on March 26, 2025 to lead the Office of Legal Policy. That confirmation does not carry over to the US Attorney post as a legal matter, but it demolishes the suggestion that the administration is hiding an unconfirmable radical from scrutiny. The Senate examined this man 15 months ago and consented. (Read more)

July 10, 2026 – DC judge drops J6 seditious conspiracy charges against Proud Boys

(Credit: The Gateway Pundit graphic))

On Friday night dirty DC Judge Tim Kelly dropped all seditious conspiracy charges against high-ranking members of the Proud Boys members.

Politico reported Judge Kelly “reluctantly” dropped the bogus seditious conspiracy charges.

As The Gateway Pundit has reported numerous times in the past five years, the Biden regime brought the charges against the Proud Boys without any evidence except for the document the FBI planted in a Proud Boys chat group that was never read and never opened.

In May, the Trump Department of Justice moved to dismiss the seditious conspiracy charges against the Proud Boys for their actions on January 6, 2021.

This was long overdue.

July 10, 2026 – Marco Rubio steps in and deports the child rapist Tim Walz recently pardoned

(Credit: Revolver News)

If there’s one thing the left loves, it’s a criminal. Bonus points if it’s an illegal alien who’s targeting children. They really go hard for those types. Just look at what Tim Walz and his buddies recently did when they pardoned an illegal alien who was convicted of child rape.

Steve Guest:

DEPRAVED: Tim Walz just pardoned a child sex abuser who was set to be deported per The New York Times:

“A three-person Minnesota panel including Gov. Tim Walz granted a pardon to an immigrant convicted of sexually abusing a child, drawing accusations that he and other Democrats are impeding federal efforts to expel dangerous foreign criminals eligible for deportation.

The Minnesota Board of Pardons granted the reprieve on June 10 to Tou Lue Vang, 42, who came to the United States as a child and was set to be deported to Laos imminently. Mr. Vang had submitted a letter to the board expressing regret for the actions that led to his 2005 conviction, and said a pardon could help him stay in the country with his wife and six children.”

We also covered this disturbing story.

Revolver:

It turns out a three-person Minnesota panel that includes Mr. Walz granted a pardon to Tou Lue Vang, a man convicted in a child rape who was reportedly set to be deported back to his home country.

Yes, you read that correctly.

This is a disturbing and twisted left-wing worldview that keeps popping up in the worst possible ways. The left’s soft-on-crime agenda is always dressed up with words like mercy, rehabilitation, compassion, and second chances. We get it, clemency matters. But not for child molesters.

And even stranger is how the same people who cheer for molester pardons were never quite as generous when the target is a political dissident, like a nonviolent J6 defendant, or some regular American who got targeted by the Biden regime.

There’s a really creepy hive mind of left-wing thinking that treats prison as some kind of oppressive relic, while they bend over backward to treat criminals like the “real victims.” But like we said earlier, when the “criminal” is someone on the right, suddenly all that warm and fuzzy compassion dries up, all nuance disappears, and the system becomes really hard-nosed again.

This all has a very “Marxist” vibe. They believe that prison is fascism, and all bad guys can be rehabilitated by the community, unless they’re political prisoners. There’s no hope or clemency for those types, they can’t be rehabilitated.

When you think of it that way and look at what’s happening in the Dem Party, which is literally voting for straight-up communists, it shows the warped priorities of the people running the all-new, communist Democrat Party. A convicted child sex abuser gets mercy, while ordinary citizens get lectures, and political enemies get the Gulag.

And yet again, Tim Walz is standing right in the thick of it.

Well, thankfully, justice will finally prevail.

Rubio spoke out on this disturbing story.

Nick Sortor:

🚨 BREAKING: Secretary of State Marco Rubio has REVOKED the legal status of Tou Lue Vang, the Laotian child raplst pardoned by Tim Walz

He’s now been DEPORTED by ICE, Rubio says

Tim Walz tried to shield him from deportation. Didn’t work!

You’re a scumbag, Tim.

July 11, 2026 – Lindsey Graham dies of a heart attack; what his death sets in motion

Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina died Saturday evening at his Capitol Hill home at the age of 71. His office attributed the death to a “brief and sudden illness,” and police scanner audio from Saturday night indicates emergency personnel were dispatched to the residence for cardiac arrest. No further details have been released, and funeral arrangements have not been announced.

The suddenness is difficult to overstate. Graham had returned from Kyiv that same day after meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Friday and touring a Ukrainian drone production facility. He was booked to appear on NBC’s “Meet the Press” this morning.

Track One, the Appointment

(…) Under South Carolina Code Section 7-19-20, the governor fills a Senate vacancy by appointment, with the appointee serving until January 3 following the next general election. Because Graham’s term was already set to expire on January 3, 2027, McMaster’s appointee will serve less than six months, and no special election is required to fill the seat itself. McMaster can act immediately, and given the Senate’s legislative calendar, he has every incentive to do so.

The politics of the pick are more complicated than the mechanics. McMaster is term-limited, not on any future ballot, and co-chaired Graham’s reelection campaign. A lame-duck governor making a high-stakes appointment answers to no electorate, which cuts both ways.

He can choose a caretaker who simply holds the seat and casts reliable votes through December, or he can choose someone who intends to run for the seat in November, effectively putting a thumb on the scale of the primary that must now follow. Names circulating in early speculation include Lieutenant Governor Pamela Evette, Representative Ralph Norman, and Attorney General Alan Wilson, though nothing has been announced and none of it should be treated as more than conjecture at this point.

Track Two, the Ballot

The appointment and the nomination are separate questions. Graham won his primary on June 9, defeating challenger Mark Lynch, and was set to face Democratic pediatrician Annie Andrews in November. His death vacates the Republican line on the ballot, and state law does not allow the party to simply designate a new nominee. An expedited Republican primary is required, with an election expected by August 11 and a possible runoff on August 25.

That gives South Carolina Republicans roughly 30 days to organize a statewide primary for one of the most coveted openings in American politics, a Senate seat with no incumbent in a state that has not elected a Democrat to the chamber since 1998.

The appointee and the eventual nominee can be the same person, but they do not have to be, and whether McMaster’s choice enters the primary will shape the entire field. The seat remains safe on paper. Andrews was already running against a well-funded incumbent in a state where Jaime Harrison outspent Graham by $25 million in 2020 and still lost by more than ten points. But an open seat with a compressed, potentially fractious primary is a different race than the one Republicans planned for, and Democrats will test whether the disruption creates any opening at all.

The Committee Dominoes

Inside the chamber, the effects run deeper than one vote. The Budget Committee is now without a chairman in the middle of appropriations season, with government funding deadlines and the defense authorization bill compressing the fall calendar. Graham had also been the leading advocate for a third party-line budget reconciliation package in this Congress, and Roll Call reports that prospects for such a bill are dwindling with his death, given the shortened timeline before the midterms.

The succession plans for the next Congress are scrambled as well. Under Republican term-limit rules, Senator Chuck Grassley was slated to rotate back to the top spot on Budget in the 120th Congress, with Graham in line to take the gavel at Judiciary.

With Graham gone and Senator John Cornyn departing, the senior Republican on Judiciary is now positioned to be Senator Mike Lee of Utah, a meaningful shift for the committee that processes every judicial nomination the administration sends up. Anyone who watched Graham steer Supreme Court confirmations through that committee understands that its chairmanship is not an interchangeable part.

Lindsey Graham in Kyiv Days Before His Death

Good meeting with U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham @LindseyGrahamSC in Kyiv. This is already his 10th visit to our country, and we appreciate this support.

I’m grateful to Lindsey for recognizing our warriors. The stronger Ukraine is on the battlefield, the greater the chances that diplomacy will ultimately succeed. And right now, it is important that our long-range sanctions pressure on Russia be reinforced through new sanctions steps by our partners. Lindsey briefed me on the work underway in Congress on the relevant bill. We also discussed our urgent air defense needs to protect our people. During the NATO Summit in Ankara, President Trump and I reached political agreements on licensing the production of Patriots in Ukraine. It is now crucial to implement all of this at the team level.

I thank the United States, the President, and Congress for bipartisan and consistent support from both chambers.

Radio traffic from response to Sen. Graham’s home: Emergency radio traffic indicates that Senator Lindsey Graham suffered chest pains before going into cardiac arrest Saturday night. Efforts to revive the South Carolina lawmaker were not successful. Graham died two days after his 71st birthday.

This is the second time within a month that the DC Fire & EMS Department was dispatched to the Capitol Hill home of a Republican U.S. Senator reported to be in cardiac arrest. The first was Senator Mitch McConnell from Kentucky on June 14th.

The radio traffic from http://OpenMHz.com indicates that the 911 caller last night was a woman in Baltimore. The crew from Engine 7 arrived and could not get anyone to answer the door. They apparently forced entry into the home. The radio traffic gives the impression that Senator Graham may not have immediately been in cardiac arrest when they arrived, but there is no confirmation of that information. Here’s the unofficial timeline for the call:

· 8:27:34 Engine 7 and Medic 7 (a paramedic ambulance) were dispatched to Graham’s home on South Capitol Street SE (I’ve omitted the street numbers).
· 8:32:34 Engine 7 requested a callback to get someone inside to open the locked front door.
· 8:33:34 (timestamp missing on video) Dispatcher reported that the caller said she was not in the home and the door is unlocked.
· 8:34:15 Dispatcher reported that the caller asked if they knocked on the door, believing the patient would answer. Engine 7 responded, “Yes. Repeatedly.”
· 8:35:05 Dispatcher said the caller is coming from Baltimore. The dispatcher asked Engine 7 if they would like a ladder truck company to force entry and asked about the need for DC Police. Engine 7 said they will need police, but they could handle forcing entry into the home.
· 8:53:28 Engine 7 reported CPR was in progress “now” and requested an EMS supervisor (standard on cardiac arrest calls).
· 8:54:00 EMS 6, an EMS supervisor, was dispatched.
· 9:13:41 Battalion Chief 2 told the dispatcher to attach him to the run with Engine 7 (this is not routine on most cardiac arrest calls and is likely an indication of who the patient was).

July 11, 2026 – John Thune is accused of taking $1.58 million from cheap labor interests, exposing why he refuses to pass the Save America Act

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) is one of the GOP senators receiving funds from industries dependent on cheap foreign & illegal labor, and she’s helping BLOCK the SAVE America Act.

Per American Accountability Foundation report (part of $8.3M+ to 11 senators from construction, hospitality, agriculture & senior housing):
– These sectors back amnesty (DIGNITY Act) and oppose strong E-Verify/enforcement.

Murkowski has voted against advancing citizenship proof for voting and election integrity measures.

Senior Republican holdout stalling what 80%+ Americans support.

America First means secure elections, not donor priorities!

The GOP senators named in the report include Majority Leader John Thune, Majority Whip John Barrasso, Katie Britt, Bill Cassidy, Susan Collins, John Cornyn, James Lankford, Mitch McConnell, Lisa Murkowski, Thom Tillis, and Dan Sullivan.

New Report Raises Questions About Industry Influence on SAVE America Act Fight

July 11, 2026 – Mamdani planned to meet with Iran at the same time they were plotting to kill Trump; legal options to battle communists and subversive influence

I think Mamdani might end up being the best thing that ever happened to us.

Why? Because he is openly collaborating with our enemies in wartime. He is paving the way for Trump to declare the Dems as UNLAWFUL ENEMY COMBATANTS!

The Dems are collaborating with our direct enemies in wartime, and that’s not even mentioning aiding and abetting our enemies with their consistent stream of anti-American and pro-Iran MSM propaganda and disinformation. Also, the Dems refused to enforce US law and defend our borders, allowing our enemies’ insurgents to walk across our border, in which the Dems harbor them in “sanctuary” cities.

Well over 99% of people have no idea just how severe our situation is. This is a zero-sum game between the American People, and Communist/Globalist insurgents seeking to overthrow this nation from within.

And if anyone thinks Trump doesn’t have the stones to do something about it, you are mistaken. The process is already long underway. Trump and the US MIL have been setting the stage this entire time. Trump is going to save this nation, and he told us many times he is willing to use the full array of powers as Commander in Chief to do it.

Bookmark this post. One day, the Dems will be officially labeled as “unlawful enemy combatants”, and we will try them as literal terrorists via military tribunal.

July 11, 2026 – James Carville on Democratic Socialists of America: “These people are so f-king stupid I don’t know what to say about it”

James Carville thinks Democrats are making the same mistake that helped elect Donald Trump in 2016 – and he says they’re doing it all over again.

In a Politicon video posted Friday, the veteran Democratic strategist blasted the party’s growing crop of Democratic socialist insurgents, arguing they’re more interested in defeating fellow Democrats than Republicans and warning they’ll hand the GOP more victories in the process.

He pointed to a string of primary defeats that have unseated sitting Democratic members of Congress in favor of candidates running even further to their left. In New York, Brad Lander defeated Rep. Dan Goldman, and Democratic socialist Darializa Avila Chevalier ousted Rep. Adriano Espaillat. Democratic socialist Melat Kiros beat sitting Rep. Diana DeGette in Colorado. Carville also singled out Michigan candidate Abdul El-Sayed as the case study of what worries him most, accusing him of running a campaign that treats both parties as enemies rather than just Republicans.

For Carville, the roots of today’s fight go back nearly a decade. He called the 2016 election when President Donald Trump was elected the most catastrophic event of this century and put the blame on Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), whom he described as an insurgent liberal who dragged the Democratic primary into the summer long after the math had settled that race.

“How did Trump win? I’ll tell you how, because goddamn Bernie Sanders is the reason that Donald Trump is president. You hear me, listen to me, I’m telling you the truth.” By Carville’s read, the prolonged primary bled working-class voters out of Pennsylvania and into Trump’s column. “Because Sanders is telling working people in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin… that somehow or another it was corporate America. Yeah, it’s corporate. The Democrats are a corporatist party. There’s no difference between the establishment Democrats… Are you kidding me?”

Now Carville sees the sequel writing itself. He argues the new class of socialist challengers is running the same play against Democratic incumbents that Sanders once ran against Clinton, and he wants no part of the popular argument on the left that establishment Democrats and establishment Republicans are interchangeable.

“These people are so f-king stupid I don’t know what to say about it,” Carville said. “So now we have this idea that these insurgent Democrats – and what is their solution?”

His actual complaint runs deeper than a stray insult. Carville argues these candidates aren’t trying to beat Republicans at all. They’re running against their own party as if it were the obstacle, a strategy he considers self-defeating on its face.

“Is their solution to beat Republicans, to run against Republicans? No! Their solution is to beat Democrats like they’re part of the problem. You are part of the problem because you’re a f-king idiot!”

Carville warned Democrats against what he called false prophets, accusing far-left candidates of marketing themselves as superior to both parties in a pitch he thinks collapses under its own weight once the general election arrives.

July 12, 2026 – FBI fires Atlanta-based husband and wife analysts who refused to assist Georgia 2020 election investigation

FBI Headquarters-Atlanta   (Credit: FBI)

The FBI has reportedly fired two intelligence analysts after they refused to participate in the bureau’s investigation into Georgia’s 2020 presidential election.

According to multiple reports, the Atlanta-based analysts, a husband and wife, told colleagues they did not believe the investigation was justified and declined to work on the case.

They were reportedly escorted from the FBI office after refusing the assignment.

The FBI did not confirm the firings but defended its decision.

“The FBI will always investigate credible allegations of matters related to federal elections,” an FBI spokesperson said.

“Every employee at this FBI is to uphold our mission and adhere to our standards, any deviation will not be tolerated.”

Earlier this month, the FBI assigned 260 investigative analysts to assist with its ongoing investigation into the fraud that took place in Fulton County, Georgia, during the 2020 presidential election.

According to an internal FBI memorandum, the analysts were tasked with completing approximately 708 records checks by July 17th.

July 12, 2026 – In Memoriam – The Most Interesting Revelation Released by Senator Lindsey Graham

Many people have specific citations for the impact of Senator Lindsey Graham. Several people have noted his importance in releasing information associated with the fraudulent “spygate’ and “Russiagate” operations. However, to me, the most interesting release from Senator Lindsey Graham was the release he could never again mention.

Senator Graham released a highly compartmented letter [STILL ACTIVE LINK] that proved the depth of the fraud targeting President Trump. The letter formally outlined a complete governmental fraud using all three branches of government, and as a consequence it could never be discussed in public.

In/around April 2020 (the letter is technically undated) the Senate Judiciary Committee (Graham and Feinstein) along with the Senate Intelligence Committee (Burr and Warner) received a copy of a letter previously transmitted secretly by the Mueller-led Dept of Justice to the FISA Court in July 2018.

BACKGROUND: The Mueller led DOJ (Rosenstein compliant, Sessions recused) had previously sent a notification to the FISA Court, July 12, 2018, saying despite the Office of the IG investigation showing clear manipulation of Carter Page FISA application process, there was still “sufficient predication” to believe the FISA warrant was appropriate.

The Mueller team were covering their ass, and racing against the clock while hiding information from the public. The letter clearly establishes in July 2018 the Mueller team were lying to the FISC.

After the December 2019 OIG Horowitz report that exposed how the Mueller probe, DOJ and FBI having clearly manipulated information to continue using the FISA warrant, despite information showing the warrant was obtained using fraudulent information, the FISA Court demanded the DOJ, now under Bill Barr, inform the Legislative Branch (Judiciary Committee) of the July 12, 2018, lie told to them by the Mueller team.

The DOJ had to comply and send the secret letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee. That’s how Graham received a copy of it in early 2020, which he then made public.

Until that moment in 2020, no one knew the Mueller team was saying one thing to the FISA Court, and another thing entirely to the media and public.

The FISC was angered, but the only oversight mechanism they had was to force the DOJ to give a copy of the letter to the Judiciary Committee.

The Judicial Branch (Judge Collyer) demanded the Executive Branch (AG Bill Barr) send the Mueller team letter to the Legislative Branch (Judiciary Committee).

Unfortunately, no one (except Graham) ever brought this up in the subsequent hearings on the matter, and when John Durham testified about his review, he was not questioned about it.

The Mueller team (Weissmann and McCord) successfully used the silo process to hide the deception, and John Durham was instructed by AG Bill Barr NEVER to investigate internal DC actors within the Legislative or Executive branches for their conduct, participation or role in the Trump targeting effort.

Bill Barr was trying to protect corrupt institutions, specifically the DOJ and FBI – and by extension the Mueller team, against sunlight upon their corrupt activity.

The lengthy letters remains -to this day- sitting in the Judiciary Committee data library (link below), as a permanent physical record of direct lies told to the FISC by a corrupt DOJ, and to this day no one has been held to account.

The 2020 cover letter itself is undated, because Bill Barr was trying to coverup what had taken place.

READ FOR YOURSELF.

Amid a series of documents released by the Senate Judiciary Committee [SEE HERE] there is a rather alarming letter from the DOJ to the FISA Court in July 2018 that points toward an institutional cover-up.   [Link to Letter]

Before getting to the substance of the letter, it’s important to put the release in context.  After the FISA Court reviewed the DOJ inspector general report, the FISC ordered the DOJ-NSD to declassify and release documents related to the Carter Page FISA application.

In the cover letter for this specific release to the Senate Judiciary and Senate Intelligence committees, the DOJ cites the January 7, 2020, FISA court order:

Keep in mind that prior to this release only the FISA court had seen this letter from the DOJ-National Security Division (DOJ-NSD).  As we walk through the alarming content of this letter I think you’ll identify the motive behind the FISC order to release it.

First, the letter in question was sent by the DOJ-NSD to the FISA Court on July 12, 2018.  It is critical to keep the date of the letter in mind as we review the content.

Aside from the date the important part of the first page is the motive for sending it. The DOJ is telling the court in July 2018: based on what they know the FISA application still contains “sufficient predication for the Court to have found probable cause” to approve the application.   The DOJ is defending the Carter Page FISA application as still valid.

However, it is within the justification of the application that alarm bells are found. On page six the letter identifies the primary participants behind the FISA redactions:

As you can see: Christopher Steele is noted as “Source #1”.  Glenn Simpson of Fusion-GPS is noted as “identified U.S. person” or “business associate”; and Perkins Coie is the “U.S-based law firm.”

Now things get very interesting.

On page #8 when discussing Christopher Steele’s primary sub-source, the DOJ notes the FBI found him to be truthful and cooperative.

This is an incredibly misleading statement to the FISA court because what the letter doesn’t say is that 18-months earlier the sub-source, also known in the IG report as the “primary sub-source”, informed the FBI that the material attributed to him in the dossier was essentially junk.  That primary sub-source was Igor Danchenko.

Let’s look at how the IG report frames the primary sub-source, and specifically notice the FBI contact and questioning took place in January 2017 (we now know that date to be January 12, 2017):

Those interviews with Steele’s primary sub-source Denchenko took place in January, March and May of 2017; and clearly the sub-source debunked the content of the dossier itself.

Those interviews were 18-months, 16-months and 14-months ahead of the July 2018 DOJ letter to the FISC.   The DOJ-NSD says the sub-source was “truthful and cooperative” but the DOJ doesn’t tell the court the content of the truthfulness and cooperation.  Why?

Keep in mind this letter to the court was written by AAG John Demers in July 2018.  Jeff Sessions was Attorney General, Rod Rosenstein was Deputy AG; Christopher Wray was FBI Director, David Bowditch is Deputy, and Dana Boente is FBI chief-legal-counsel.

Why would the DOJ-NSD not be forthcoming with the FISA court about the primary sub-source?  This level of disingenuous withholding of information speaks to an institutional motive.

By July 2018 the DOJ clearly knew the dossier was full of fabrications, yet they withheld that information from the court and said the predicate was still valid.  Why?

It doesn’t take a deep-weeds-walker to identify the DOJ motive.

♦ In July 2018 Robert Mueller’s investigation was at its apex.

This letter justifying the application and claiming the current information would still be a valid predicate therein, speaks to the 2018 DOJ needing to retain the validity of the FISA warrant…. My research suspicion is that the DOJ needed to protect evidence Mueller had already extracted from the fraudulent FISA authority.  That’s the motive.

In July 2018 if the DOJ-NSD had admitted the FISA application and all renewals were fatally flawed Robert Mueller would have needed to withdraw any evidence gathered as a result of its exploitation.  The DOJ in 2018 was protecting Mueller’s poisoned fruit.

If the DOJ had been honest with the court, there’s a strong possibility some, perhaps much, of Mueller evidence gathering would have been invalidated… and cases were pending.

The solution: mislead the court and claim the predication was still valid.

This is not simply a hunch, because that motive also speaks to why the FISC would order the current DOJ to release the letter.

Remember, in December 2019 the FISC received the IG Horowitz report; and they would have immediately noted the disparity between what IG Horowitz outlined about the FBI investigating Steele’s sub-source, as contrast against what the DOJ told them in July 2018.

The DOJ letter is a transparent misrepresentation when compared to the information in the Horowitz report. Hence, the court orders the DOJ to release the July letter so that everyone, including congressional oversight and the public can see the misrepresentation.

The court was misled; now everyone can see it.

The content of that DOJ-NSD letter, and the subsequent disparity, points to an institutional cover-up; and as a consequence the FISC also ordered the DOJ to begin an immediate sequestration effort to find all the evidence from the fraudulent FISA application.  The proverbial fruit from the poisonous tree…. And yes, that job fell upon Bill Barr.

Bill Barr could not follow that FISC instruction because doing so would have opened up the entire Mueller operation to further scrutiny.  The FISC told Barr to sequester evidence fraudulently obtained by false affidavits to the court.  However, by early 2020 the Mueller cases were complete.

Reopening the cases would have been catastrophic to the institutional credibility that was predicated on the special counsel.

Moving on…

Two more big misstatements within the July letter appear on page #9.  The first is the DOJ claiming that only after the application was filed did they become aware of Christopher Steele working for Fusion-GPS and knowing his intent was to create opposition research for the Hillary Clinton campaign.  See the top of the page.

According to the DOJ-NSD claim the number four ranking official in the DOJ, Bruce Ohr, never told them he was acting as a conduit for Christopher Steele to the FBI.   While that claim is hard to believe, in essence what the DOJ-NSD is saying in that paragraph is that the FBI hoodwinked the DOJ-NSD by not telling them where the information for the FISA application was coming from.  The DOJ, via John Demers, is blaming the FBI.

The second statement, equally as incredulous, is at the bottom of page nine where the DOJ claims they had no idea Bruce Ohr was talking to the FBI throughout the entire time any of the FISA applications were being submitted.  October 2016 through June 2017.

In essence the claim there is that Bruce Ohr was working with the FBI and never told anyone in the DOJ throughout 2016 and all the way past June 29th of 2017.  That denial seems rather unlikely; however, once again the DOJ-NSD is putting the FBI in the crosshairs and claiming they knew nothing about the information pipeline.

Bruce Ohr, whose wife was working for Fusion-GPS and assisting Christopher Steele with information, was interviewed by the FBI over a dozen times as he communicated with Steele and fed his information to the FBI.  Yet the DOJ claims they knew nothing about it.

Again, just keep in mind this claim by the DOJ-NSD is being made in July 2018, six months after Bruce Ohr was demoted twice (December 2017 and January 2018).  If what the DOJ is saying is true, well, the FBI was completely off-the-rails and rogue.

Neither option speaks well about the integrity of either institution; and quite frankly I don’t buy the DOJ-NSD spin.

Why?

The reason is simple, the DOJ is claiming in the letter the predication was still valid… if the DOJ-NSD genuinely didn’t know about the FBI manipulation, they would be informing the court in 2018 the DOJ no longer supported the FISA application due to new information.  They did not do that.  Instead, in July 2018, they specifically told the court the predicate was valid, yet the DOJ-NSD knew it was not.

The last point about the July 2018 letter is perhaps the most jarring.  Again, keep in mind when it was written Chris Wray is FBI Director, David Bowditch is Deputy and Dana Boente is FBI chief legal counsel.

Their own FBI reports, by three different INSD and IG investigations; had turned up seriously alarming evidence going back to the early 2017 time-frame; the results of which ultimately led to the DC FBI office losing all of their top officials; and knowing the letter itself was full of misleading and false information about FBI knowledge in/around Christopher Steele; this particular sentence is alarming:

“The FBI has reviewed this letter and confirmed its factual accuracy?”

Really?

As we have just shared, the July 2018 letter itself is filled with factual inaccuracies, misstatements and intentional omissions.  So who exactly did the “reviewing”?

Here’s the Full Letter.  I strongly suggest everyone read the 14-pages slowly.  If you know the background, this letter is infuriating…

There is no apple, it’s all worms!

July 13, 2026 – Trump uses the recent SCOTUS Slaughter ruling and purges the Elections Assistance Commission

Rebecca Slaughter (Credit: Wikipedia)

Trump once again brings attention to the importance of the Slaughter ruling.

This gave POTUS the power to purge the Elections Assistance Commission, which he just did.

Now the EAC operates like other Executive agencies, meaning they now answer to POTUS. Trump can now implement more aggressive security measures in the 2026 midterms, and more aggressive enforcement of our already existing laws.

Trump now has substantially more power to prevent the Dems from cheating in the midterms, even without Congressional assistance. The only thing we need Congress for, is Senate confirmation of Trump’s new appointees, which only requires a simple majority.

Trump just assumed massive power over election security, right on time.

I think the investigation/raids going on in Fulton County related to the 2020 election, might have had something to do with this ruling.

@POTUS @DevinNunes @VDHanson President Trump, With your decisive action firing the troubled EAC members and their resignations, America now has a historic opportunity to finally secure our elections.

No more politics. No voluntary guidelines. No popularity contests.

Run the EAC like the successful business operator you are: facts, enforceable contracts, ironclad standards, and accountability. My team and I have identified over 200 vulnerabilities, all fixable through simple contractual requirements with zero new laws needed.

I stand ready to serve our nation on the EAC to protect every legal voter and restore trust in our Republic.

Let’s deliver election integrity. Just great American business managed by the enforceable rule of law.

July 13, 2026 – Trump discusses Iran and says “Obama went to their side” and then, “let’s leave that for another time”

Trump says that Obama “went to their side”, referring to Iran, and then catches himself before he reveals some information about Obama that he is not supposed to say yet, and says “let’s save that for another time”.

Trump has been preparing the public for the massive reveal of world-altering information pertaining to Obama, and his relationship with Iran.

One day, Trump will reveal to the world that Obama is Muslim, and a traitor to the United States, who helped supply Iran with the means to obtain nuclear weapons.

All roads lead to Obama.

July 13, 2026 – Mamdani’s affordability agenda flops as NYC rents surge to record highs

New York City’s socialist mayor, Zohran Mamdani, and his radical-left lieutenants in City Hall promised voters free bus rides, government-run grocery stores, cheap housing, and much more. Yet the dream of a left-wing utopia has not materialized. In fact, rents in the NYC metro area just hit a record high.

New data from The Corcoran Group, a major residential real estate brokerage founded in NYC, shows that rents in the metro area have climbed to a new record high.

Manhattan’s median rent rose 8% from a year earlier to $5,295, while Brooklyn reached $4,350, also up 8%, according to the report. Manhattan’s vacancy rate narrowed to 1.49%. In Queens, Rego Park posted particularly sharp increases, with one-bedroom rents up 12% and studio rents up more than 20%.

“Manhattan renters are chasing a shrinking pool of available apartments, and the result has become predictable — record rents. Available listings dropped 16% year-over-year in June, while the borough’s median rent climbed to a new high of $5,295 . Leasing activity clocked in 7% below last year’s pace due to the lack of inventory, causing competition to remain fierce. Additionally, June marked one year since implementation of the FARE Act, a milestone that may still be influencing pricing trends, particularly within the non-doorman market. Across the board, quality apartments are commanding a premium, and renters have little room to negotiate,” Corcoran COO Gary Malin wrote in the report.

Malin continued, “Brooklyn’s rental market is also rewriting the record books. Median rent jumped 8% year-over-year to an all-time high of $4,350 and apartments spent 30% fewer days on the market. This steep annual decline underscores how tight the market has become, with flat inventory and strong demand strong causing available units to rent far faster than a year ago. While lease signings were lower on an annual basis, activity picked up from May as renters moved quickly to secure apartments ahead of the busiest stretch of the summer season. Throughout the borough, competition.”

City Comptroller Mark Levine commented on the new report, saying, “NYC’s housing affordability crisis is at DEFCON 1. We need to push harder on every front to address our housing shortage.”

“Update zoning, invest more City $ in affordable units, lower the time & cost City bureaucracy imposes on construction, get 1000s of vacant regulated units back on the market. We need bold action. This is a crisis,” Levine added.

Yet, as Libs of TikTok on X pointed out, “We don’t have a housing shortage. We have an illegal alien invasion,” adding, “Forty percent of NYC rentals are occupied by people born outside the US.”

Last week, the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas published a new report showing that the “unprecedented boom in unauthorized immigration” sparked a nationwide housing demand shock in the presence of a relatively fixed short-run housing supply, accounting for 30% of home price growth and 20% of rent growth in the average local market during the boom period.

Mamdani and the Democratic Socialists of America bloc at City Hall will never acknowledge the illegal alien invasion has played a major role in tightening NYC’s housing market. Instead, the response from far-left clowns is blaming “racist capitalism” and arguing that the existing system must be dismantled for one that actually has never worked anywhere in the world – look at Cuba.

That leaves a fundamental policy contradiction: Mamdani and his socialist allies claim they can solve the affordability crisis by building more housing, yet that will take years. The easiest solution would be to cooperate with ICE or support deportations, which could reduce pressure on housing, schools, and other public services almost immediately. Good luck reconciling those positions. (Zero Hedge, 7/13/2026) (Archive)

July 13, 2026 – Rubio launches a plan to destroy the International Criminal Court (ICC) threats to American sovereignty

Secretary of State of Marco Rubio has just stunned the world, launching a plan to DESTROY the International Criminal Court (ICC) threats to American sovereignty

Marco just confirmed it: NO GLOBALIST JUDGE HAS ANY AUTHORITY OVER AMERICANS, “international law” has NO EFFECT in the USA 🇺🇸

“As we speak, the ICC and its friends are waging a war against our country, not with bullets or missiles, but with statutes and compacts and the force of so-called international law!”

“They believe that they should be in charge of YOUR laws, of YOUR country, YOUR life, and they don’t care whether or not you agree.”

“Halfway across the world, there’s an institution that calls itself the International Criminal Court. Maybe you’ve heard of it, maybe you haven’t. The chances are you don’t know the names of its judges, of its prosecutors, or its president!”

“It was a global tribunal staffed by unelected globalist bureaucrats who claimed their power is almost unlimited. The danger of this global court has only continued to grow.”

“It threatens every aspect of our political and legal system. Border Patrol agents removing violent criminals from our country, American Marines risking their lives to defend our homeland, prosecutors working to dismantle terrorist plots to attack and kill Americans.”

“If we stand idle, all of them would be at the mercy of foreign judges thousands of miles away facing the constant risk of prosecution and even imprisonment for the so-called crime of defending their own country.”

“The American people never agreed to any of this, and they never will. Read the words of our Declaration of Independence. We fought a revolution against a foreign power transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offenses!”

“Independence is our birthright. We will never let foreign bureaucrats take that away from us. This administration will not sit by as the ICC and its allies seek to threaten our people.”

“If they believe they can deprive us of our sovereignty, we will teach them the full meaning of American resolve.”

BASED.

The ICC is really, the DEEP STATE international criminal court – run by those who have given themselves ‘EXEMPTION’ from the laws of different nations. They are UNELECTED, UN-OFFICIALS – whose sole purpose is to defend the ‘human’ institutions and the CORRUPT and VILE ways of the deep state. It’s “the complete OPPOSITE” of what they SAY it is. Those who are “guilty” of committing CRIMES against the deep STATE STRUCTURE and globalist STAKEHOLDERS – are the ones whom they will ‘go AFTER’.

President Donald Trump is the one they’ve set their EYES on, along with Benjamin Netanyahu and Putin. They want to prosecute the three of them for “war crimes” and then lock them up forever.

The ICC is a CRIMINAL organization run by ‘criminal empaths’. They are like the courts that were set up in the time of the Christ during the time of the Pharisees and Sadducees, looking for ANYTHING to Crucify Him over. They are like the modern day Sanhedrin; they see themselves as the highest court of appeal.

It’s important to note that Canada’s newly appointed Governor General, Louise Arbour, is a former Chief Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court. This explains the Canadian government’s HOSTILITIES towards America, and Canada’s RESOLVE to stand against the President – UNTIL he is locked up by the ICC. She would definitely be functioning as “a liaison” between the ICC and the Canadian government, ready to coordinate Canadian government support for any and all actions that are now ‘ready to be launched’ by the ICC against President Trump.

This post is a public call for the U.S. Secretary of State to use his authority to impose immediate sanctions on the Governor General of Canada.

Image text: The Deep State Owned and Operated International Criminal Court, Conveniently located at 8647 Injustice Way

The ICC aka International Criminal Court—that shiny Hague-based clubhouse where self-appointed global hall monitors get to play judge, jury, and sternly worded press release over the world’s worst atrocities. Buddy, it’s not just un-American; it’s the judicial equivalent of a European tourist lecturing you on freedom while sipping espresso and wondering why you won’t surrender your sovereignty at the door.

Let’s break it down:

1. Sovereignty? What’s that? America was literally founded on “no king but God and definitely no foreign bureaucrats telling us what to do.” The ICC says, “Hold my gavel.” It claims the right to prosecute U.S. citizens—soldiers, officials, hell, maybe your uncle who once visited Kabul—for war crimes if Uncle Sam decides the American justice system isn’t “willing or able.” That’s not complementarity; that’s “we’ll take it from here, colonizer.” The U.S. looked at that Rome Statute and said, “Pass.” China, Russia, and India did too. Real recognize real.

2. No jury, no problem (for them). The U.S. Constitution understands due process, trial by jury of your peers, and not getting renditioned to some Dutch courtroom where the judges rotate based on which continent feels most morally superior this week. ICC? Three-judge panels, prosecutor with self appointed god-mode investigative powers, and zero elected accountability. It’s like if the UN had a judicial branch and forgot the entire Bill of Rights existed.

3. “Court of last resort” my ass. In theory, sure. In practice, it’s the favorite toy of activists and rival states who want to lawfare American power into irrelevance. Remember when they sniffed around U.S. forces in Afghanistan? Or floated warrants for Israeli leaders while cozying up to situations that conveniently skip certain permanent UNSC members? Selective outrage is the ICC’s love language. America prefers its own system: messy, political, but at least the voters can yell at their own idiots instead of some Belgian prosecutor with a Napoleon complex.

4. Enforcement theater. The ICC has no army, no cops, no way to actually drag anyone to The Hague unless the target country cooperates or gets invaded (lol). So it’s basically a fancy press release generator that lets Europeans and NGOs feel like they’re ending impunity while America does the heavy lifting on actual security. Then they try to arrest warrants on sitting heads of state. Bold strategy, Cotton.

In short, the ICC is a bunch of self appointed turds who created thier own rules claiming they have some kind of authority over the world, including America (Ha!)

America is built on the radical idea that we govern ourselves, thank you very much. We don’t outsource justice to an unaccountable supranational body that treats national sovereignty like an outdated suggestion. It’s the legal version of asking France for military advice—technically international, practically insulting, and guaranteed to produce more sanctimony than results.
God bless the USA for telling that particular emperor he’s not wearing any clothes.

July 14, 2026 – The Florida DOGE team has become the leader for accountable and efficient governance to its citizens – A playbook for all states

On July 14, the State Leadership Initiative was honored to host the Florida DOGE team and their tech partners, Vulcan, Echelon, and DigiBuild, for the Florida DOGE Showcase in Washington, D.C. Spearheaded by Governor Ron DeSantis, the state has become the leader for providing accountable and efficient governance to its citizens.

Since its creation in 2025, the Florida DOGE team has identified nearly $1 billion in waste and abuse at the local government level and sent over $878 million back to the federal government. But the team’s work extends beyond fiscal savings and budgetary cuts – it also includes auditing university curriculum and state union programs and reining in rogue municipalities that had adopted woke-left policies. Take Florida’s SB 1134, which banned counties and municipalities from using government funds for discriminatory DEI programs and activities. Florida DOGE found that local governments were forcing employees to undergo “Transgender Humility” training, which included the use of a “wheel of power/privilege” that singled out certain ethnic groups as being worse than others. In some extreme cases, the team found that local governments were directing taxpayer dollars to immigration lawyers who represented criminal illegal aliens. All of this was identified by Florida DOGE and prohibited by law.

This ideological audit was most prevalent in universities, where the team examined over 74,000 syllabi and 100,000 research articles for left-wing ideological content. Funding for these DEI-related activities was effectively halted through SB 266 and SB 7044. While the federal DOGE program failed to codify reform through legislation, Florida DOGE succeeded.

Florida DOGE has proven it is the model to emulate. The next step is to provide the blueprint for bringing it to other states.

Enter the State DOGE Playbook, a collaborative effort between the State Leadership Initiative and the Florida DOGE team. This is a step-by-step guide to ensure that these reforms are not merely a temporary win for a single executive’s tenure, but a long-term fundamental shift in how red states govern.

Instead of Elon Musk drawing from his own stable of engineers, Florida hired volunteers and tech-minded interns to leverage new technologies to conduct investigations and root out waste and ideological indoctrination previously unheard of at the state level. Many of Florida DOGE’s accomplishments were secured with a team of only three full-time employees, supplemented by a staff Florida put together. SLI is proud to be part of this effort; we even sent two of our own to act as special government employees, at no cost to the state, to help identify shadow government organizations funded by the state, local governments, and universities.

All that’s needed are a few liaisons for law enforcement and legislators, and the rest is bulk data analysis. Add to this that Florida DOGE implemented these reforms on just a six-figure budget. Rarely have government initiatives accomplished so much in such a cost-effective manner.

None of these accomplishments would’ve been possible without the power of new AI tools and data-analysis technologies provided by three partners: Echelon, Vulcan Technologies, and DigiBuild. While varying in scope, each was instrumental in identifying waste and abuse during the audits, leading to the most significant reforms in Florida.

Echelon was used to analyze spending and waste in the Lee County school district. Florida DOGE identified up to $80 million in potential savings through contract reviews and more than $8 million in savings by eliminating 170 unnecessary positions spanning 30 departments. Programs like this can restore public schools to their proper mission rather than serving as a patronage scheme for overeducated administrative staff.

Vulcan Technologies was utilized to conduct top-to-bottom payment transaction audits across the state. It was so effective that local governments throughout Florida are implementing it to find opportunities for savings. In a time when property taxes are a dominant issue among voters, AI and DOGE principles are bridging the gap, fulfilling the public’s demand for making cuts and providing the services local governments owe their citizens.

Many other states have similar programs. Texas’s Office of Regulatory Efficiency has generated over 400 reductions in administrative code, and Oklahoma’s DOGE office has produced over $19 million in cuts. But Florida’s success remains unparalleled, and SLI’s State DOGE Playbook explains how to emulate its success.

Blue states across the country continue to bankrupt themselves by allowing endless fraud and overfunded programs that never deliver on their promises. It’s not enough for red states to avoid these pitfalls – red states need to match Florida’s pace and provide the governance their citizens deserve. With this playbook, there are no more excuses, only the will to act. (AmericanMind.org, 7/31/2026) (Archive)

July 14, 2026 – The Chancellor of a top American medical school testifies a transgender woman (biological male) can have baby

.
@RepMaryMiller gets right to the heart of the issue by asking the Chancellor of UC San Francisco whether a BIOLOGICAL MAN could have a baby.

HE REFUSED TO ANSWER THAT BASIC QUESTION WITHOUT USING THE WORD ‘TRANS’! I bet he couldn’t even define what a woman is without using the word ‘woman’.

WeThePeople LOST FAITH in the medical profession during and after COVID due to them being more concerned for wanting to make money over the Treatment Truth! They let people die to collect the big government paychecks.

Now we have to apply another Litmus test when seeing a doctor. If they believe a biological man could have a baby, then we will automatically know that their treatments are based on politics and NOT true science.

If this is the leadership of one of America’s top medical schools, then we can be guaranteed that our med schools are NO LONGER teaching actual scientifically proven medicine.

Science is being sacrificed for woke ideology at the highest levels.

July 14, 2026 – Grassley reveals Jack Smith spied on 44 members of Congress and read their text messages

Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley on Tuesday revealed that former Special Counsel Jack Smith spied on 44 members of Congress and actually read their text messages.

It was previously reported that Jack Smith obtained “toll records” or ‘call logs’ of members of Congress.

In fact, Jack Smith said under oath that he did not read any text messages – but this is not true.

Here are the 44 members of Congress who were spied on:

(…) “Jack Smith has answering to do, and I intend to have him before the Senate Judiciary Committee in the coming months to hold him accountable,” Grassley said. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 7/14/2026) (Archive)

A second death threat comes from a July 22, 2026 nameless “Speak Your Piece” call that was published by the newspaper.  The caller states Trump  is sending “Gestapo” agents to the polls and then calls for the deaths of federal agents.

July 15, 2026 – Texas mayor arrested on five felony charges – Illegal voting, tampering with government records, fraud

Fred Burton (Credit: public domain)

A Texas mayor was arrested and charged with five felonies.

Houston-area Arcola Mayor Fred Burton was charged with illegal voting, fraud, tampering with government records, and misuse of official information.

The illegal voting charges arise from two different elections: Arcola Municipal runoff election in June 2025 and City of Arcola special election in April 2026.

“According to the grand jury indictments, Burton is accused of helping, encouraging, or failing to prevent three people from voting when he knew they were ineligible to do so,” Fox 26 Houston reported.

The three remaining charges against Burton go back to 2023.

KHOU reported:

The mayor of a small Texas town is facing several felonies, according to Fort Bend County court records.

Mayor Fred A. Burton, 68, is charged with two counts of illegal voting, one count of misuse of official information, one count of fraud and one count of tampering with government records, all of which are felonies. He was arrested Tuesday night, according to the Fort Bend County District Attorney’s Office.

In the illegal voting charges, Burton is accused of telling at least three people to vote in a runoff election while knowing they weren’t eligible to do so.

In the misuse of official information charge, Burton is accused of using insider information to affect a $15,000 City of Arcola contract bid.

In the tampering with government record charge, he’s accused of presenting a fake estimate to defraud the City of Arcola in 2023.

The fraud charge, also stemming from an incident in 2023, alleges Burton got some councilmembers to sign off on two checks with a combined value of between $30,000 and $150,000. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 7/15/2026)

July 15, 2026 – President Trump confirms he will make an announcement tomorrow regarding election security – “It’s really big news”

Can’t help but wonder if Trump announcing the big speech more than 3 1/2 days in advance is the Art of War/Thirty-Six Stratagems, “Beat the Grass To Startle the Snakes”.

If this is the burn bag 2020 Election stuff Trump and Tulsi were talking about last June, it being announced this early could be an attempt to see what certain parties do in response, how they try to launch certain narratives to counter.

Are you paying attention?
Note the timing.

Trump will address the nation Thursday (July 16th) and will reportedly speak about foreign influence helping steal the 2020 election in Georgia.

Then, the next day (Friday, July 17th), the fruits of the Fulton County, GA investigation that he’s referring to as proof are due to be made public.

Now, the new National Security State spending bill is set for a cloture vote tomorrow (Tuesday, July 14th)… which is expected to meet the 60-vote threshold with 7-8 Democratic crossovers. That’s important because the SAVE America Act will now be included therein.

From there, based on history, it’s expected to take 1-2 weeks to reach a final vote on the bill. And since the Senate is in session for another month before its fall (August) recess, there’s an additional two-week cushion available to ensure it gets through.

Remember, once we’re past cloture, that only a simple majority is required to pass a bill… which we have.

Oh, and just in time to be fully implemented before the November election.

BREAKING: The Senate GOP will officially add the SAVE America Act to the National Security-State spending bill, per @JakeSherman.

This comes after reports the late Senator Lindsey Graham intended to support reconciliation to pass the election integrity bill with a simple 50-vote majority plus Senate President @JDVance.

The Senate maneuver comes amid escalating political pressure to ignore or dismiss the Senate parliamentarian and to pass the SAVE America Act.

July 16, 2026 – Highlights of Trump’s speech on the security of our election infrastructure; includes WH link to declassified intelligence documents

TRUMP: “For many years, Americans were blatantly lied to about the security of our election infrastructure, including electronic voting machines and ballot counting systems. Dishonest, almost all. They are vulnerable and easily compromised, and people within our government knew that.”

“We judge that the United States adversaries, including at a minimum Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, as well as non-state groups, have the capability to compromise U.S. Election infrastructure.”

.
@POTUS: Compounding the travesty, the second set of documents we are releasing reveals that members of the Deep State in our intelligence agencies worked to actively suppress and downplay information about the extent of China’s sinister election meddling—covering it up from both the President and the American People.

U.S. spy agencies began learning about the compromise of voter registration files in 2020, when they discovered that tens of millions of voters’ data in 18 states had been bought, stolen, or hacked by China. Yet those responsible for sounding the alarm instead kept the information hidden. They did not disclose it to me as president, and to the best of our knowledge, they did not inform Congress. In fact, all they kept saying is, “This is the most secure election in the history of our country.”

The coverup of this colossal security breach is even more disturbing in light of additional information showing that China engaged in other election-related activities to undermine my first administration and our 2020 campaign. They did not want Donald Trump to win, and for good reason.

As the documents we are releasing show, CIA reporting explicitly stated, “In mid-2018, the Chinese Communist Party’s policy was to leverage all domestic and foreign elements that were opposed to the U.S. President in an effort to reduce the U.S. President’s votes and make him resign or prevent his re-election. Also in mid-2018, China was working to influence the results of the U.S. mid-term elections, and later, the results of the 2020 Presidential Elections.

Separately, in mid-2019, the Chinese Government’s strategy against the United States was focused on undermining domestic confidence in the U.S. president”—and they did everything possible to do so. Going on, it says “The strategy included efforts to use Chinese contracts with big U.S. companies to influence U.S. business leaders to turn against the U.S. President. The Chinese government sought to identify U.S. journalists who had reported negatively on the U.S. President, and pay them large sums of money to write more negative articles about him. The Chinese Government wanted the U.S. president to lose the next election.” And the reason they wanted me to lose is because they knew I was wise to them, charged them billions of dollars’ worth of tariffs, and built the strongest military anywhere in the world.

These are exact quotes from CIA reporting—the name of the person doing the quote is under review. But it gets even worse. Raw intelligence obtained by the FBI in 2020, yet buried by rogue bureaucrats, stated that China’s activities even included an attempt to manufacture illegal ballots for Joe Biden.

Documents show that during this period, dozens of significant CIA and NSA reports about China’s election targeting were kept out of the Presidential Daily Briefing. One email among intelligence analysts admitted they had ‘deliberately massaged’ the Presidential Daily Briefing to withhold information regarding Chinese activities related to the election. Another official inside the FBI wrote that she was running ‘a shadow government’ to keep intelligence about China’s election meddling from becoming known. Other officials who witnessed such efforts perceived the motivations to be blatantly political.

Recently, we found significant numbers of burn bags, information given by President Barack Hussein Obama to be burned. These bags were supposed to be incinerated, but it never happened. We believe this was not done purposely, but rather through incompetence. But the findings are stunning.

Today, I am asking the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the Department of Justice, the FBI, and the CIA to investigate how and why such crucial information was hidden, to fire those involved in the coverup, and to file criminal charges, if appropriate, against them.

HOLY CRAP! President Trump reveals the CIA, FBI, and NSA KNEW in 2020 that China was attempting to manfacture FAKE BALLOTS to have Joe Biden elected.

BUT THEY HID IT FROM PRESIDENT TRUMP. TRAITORS.

Newly declassified documents reveal the 2020 FBI and intelligence agencies colluded and bragged amongst each other for running a “SHADOW GOVERNMENT” by keeping critical intelligence from Trump

EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM need to be thrown in PRISON and ROT.

They KNEW the 2020 election was at risk of being stolen. And they even supported it.

WHOA: President Trump calls on the DOJ, FBI, CIA and DNI to investigate and prosecute those involved with the massive intelligence cover-up over election security.

TRUMP: “But the findings are stunning.”

“Today, I’m asking the office of the Director of National Intelligence, the Department of Justice, the FBI and the CIA to investigate how and why such a crucial information was hidden.”

“To fire those involved in the cover up and to file criminal charges, if appropriate, against these people.”

NOW: President Trump just DROPPED this line then WALKED OFF his election fraud primetime address

“To all Americans, I ask you to pick up your phone tomorrow, call your representatives and the House and Senate, and DEMAND THAT THEY PASS THE SAVE AMERICA ACT WITHOUT DELAY.” 🇺🇸

“Together we will restore faith and confidence in our country, and we will be bigger, better, and stronger than ever before. Thank you, God bless you, God bless our great military. And God bless America. Thank you very much.”

MOVE FAST, GOP.

THEY CALLED US LIARS. THEY CALLED US INSURRECTIONISTS. NOW THE WHITE HOUSE IS RELEASING THE FILES.

For more than five years, Americans who dared question the security of the 2020 election were mocked, censored, investigated, deplatformed, and—in the case of January 6 defendants—dragged through the full machinery of the federal government.

We were told to shut up.

We were told there was nothing to see.

We were told our elections were secure.

We were told questioning any of it was a threat to democracy.

NOW READ WHAT THE WHITE HOUSE IS RELEASING.

According to the Trump White House’s newly published Election Integrity disclosures, previously classified intelligence assessments warned that foreign adversaries—including Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea—possessed the capability to compromise portions of America’s election infrastructure.

The White House says intelligence showed centralized voter-registration databases, electronic pollbooks, and official election websites were vulnerable to exploitation.

It says China illicitly acquired an astonishing 220 MILLION U.S. VOTER FILES through data that was bought, stolen, or hacked—and allegedly established a data-exploitation unit dedicated to the project.

It says FBI files document an investigation into alleged fraudulent voter-registration activity in Michigan, including claims that canvassers admitted signing other people’s names and submitting registrations for people who did not exist.

And according to the White House, a DHS review identified approximately 278,000 noncitizens registered to vote in federal elections.

Think about that.

Then think about January 6.

I was there.

I know what happened to those of us who went to Washington believing something was deeply wrong and demanding answers from our government.

For five years, they tried to make January 6 the end of the conversation.

Maybe it was only the beginning.

These disclosures do not, standing alone, prove that enough votes were electronically changed to reverse the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. But they absolutely demand a question that every American should be asking:

IF THE GOVERNMENT KNEW OUR ELECTION INFRASTRUCTURE FACED THESE THREATS AND VULNERABILITIES, WHY WERE AMERICANS WHO QUESTIONED ELECTION SECURITY TREATED LIKE ENEMIES?

Donald Trump refused to stop asking questions.

Millions of Americans refused to stop asking questions.

And many January 6 defendants paid an unimaginable price in the years that followed.

So release it all.

Every intelligence assessment.

Every FBI report.

Every email.

Every communication.

Every document concerning foreign access to American voter data.

Every record concerning election-system vulnerabilities.

Every page of the Michigan investigation.

Every record used to calculate the alleged 278,000 noncitizen registrations.

NO MORE SECRETS.

If crimes were committed, prosecute them.

If government officials buried legitimate investigations, expose them.

If intelligence was withheld from the President or the American people, tell us who made that decision and why.

And if any allegation turns out to be unsupported by the evidence, tell us that too.

Because Americans don’t need another government official telling them what to believe.

WE NEED THE FILES.

The people who stood up and demanded transparency in 2020 and 2021 deserve answers.

The January 6 families deserve answers.

And every American—Republican, Democrat, or independent—deserves elections they can trust without being ordered to simply take the government’s word for it.

President Trump has opened the door.

NOW OPEN EVERY FILE.

Because after five years of being told there was nothing worth investigating, the American people deserve to see the evidence and reach their own conclusions.

WE ASKED QUESTIONS.

THEY CALLED US INSURRECTIONISTS.

NOW THE FILES ARE COMING OUT.

And this story is far from over.

July 16, 2026 – Intelligence documents show the investigation into 2020 Michigan democratic voter registration fraud operation was shut down by Biden FBI and DOJ hacks

GBI Strategies was not just located in several Michigan cities but had operations in several states in 2020.

President Trump brought up the MUSKEGON, MICHIGAN 2020 coordinated election fraud scheme – buried by Biden admin – during his address to the country on Thursday.

This massive ballot registration scandal was first reported by The Gateway Pundit in August 2023 thanks to Michigan activists who tipped us off to this massive voter registration scandal.

The Gateway Pundit showed that a left-wing outfit named GBI Strategies was attempting to fraudulently register up to 10,000 voters in a city with only 30,000 people.

This report on systemic voter fraud in the 2020 election has never been refuted or debunked; it was simply ignored and suppressed by legacy media. The blithe answer from Michigan’s corrupt far-left Attorney General is that they ‘referred it to the FBI.‘

Yet all the information is there in the Muskegon Police report, as well as another police report from the Michigan State Police, and yet there have been zero prosecutions of those involved.

The Muskegon fraudulent ballot registration case was not in suspended animation, and it certainly didn’t close itself.

It was deliberately buried under layers of AUSAs, FBI supervisors, DOJ Public Integrity Section (PIN) officials, redactions, and bureaucratic fingerprints.

The case agent objected, cited DOJ’s own election-crimes manual, and kept dragging the file back out of the grave. Everyone above him seemed determined to bury it again, only this time with a bigger shovel.

Investigators Internally Objected to Closing the Muskegon Case. We know this from a document released last week by the Trump Administration.

Loading Viewer...

On page 1, an FBI agent writes:

“I’m not really comfortable closing the case at this point without raising these issues.”

On pages 1–2, the agent cites DOJ’s Federal Prosecution of Election Offenses manual. He argues that submitting false voter-registration information may be a prosecutable election offense even without proof that fraudulent votes were cast or that the election’s outcome was affected.

On page 2, he concludes:

“I wanted to raise my concerns before closing the case.”

The same page contains a November 3, 2021 email from DOJ’s Public Integrity Section stating that PIN would memorialize its agreement with the USAO and FBI decisions “not to seek prosecution.”

Trump Highlights Illicit Democrat-Aligned Michigan Voter Registration Group in Thursday Address – But Several More Similar Leftist Groups Are Operating Throughout the Country

July 16, 2026 – Marco Rubio: “Communism doesn’t work!”

July 16, 2026 – ABC and NBC refuse to air Trump’s speech on 2020 election fraud calling it a rehash of “baseless conspiracies,” despite US intelligence receipts

ABC and NBC showed the entire world that they’re basically nothing more than leftist state-run media. The two broadcast giants decided not to air an address from the president of the United States to the American people because they decided it was a “conspiracy theory” to suggest any wrongdoing with the controversial, sketchy, and ridiculous 2020 election.

Earlier reports that we shared with you stated that the networks were “pushing back” because Trump would be pushing “baseless conspiracies.”

This X post sums up the frustration shared by millions of Americans:

(…) Here’s what folks online are saying about this:

“THREE ENEMIES OF AMERICA; (1) ISLAM (2) The Democrat Party (3) The American Media CRUSHING all three – should BE a priority if America is to survive!”

“I don’t think ABC, NBC and CBS should have further access to our President in the Whitehouse.”

“For all the talk about nazi this and fascist that, they didn’t know fascism when it was staring them in the face.”

“So, the networks think Trump supporters are actual domestic terrorists. Good to know”

“Bar all networks from the White House!”

“So Biden’s Hitler speech calling half of America terrorists is ok ABC and NBC”

“A Legacy Media Outlet that ignores a U.S. President’s request for a live platform, is a traitor that must be severely punished! Broadcasting inside the United States is a PRIVILEGE that carries responsibilities. It’s not a right! “

Hiding information because you personally or politically deem it “unfavorable” is itself a political act, and that isn’t what our nation’s broadcast news media is supposed to do. If these networks exist solely to push left-wing propaganda while burying US intelligence about election interference, then they’re not functioning as news organizations. They’re operating more like political action committees, and their broadcast privileges should be treated accordingly.

Furthermore, how are we supposed to take these broadcasters seriously? The same people who pushed the Russia hoax for years now expect to be treated as the final authority on what is and isn’t true. These are also the people who told Americans that Hunter Biden’s laptop was a Russian psyop.

July 16, 2026 – Highlights of the White House declassified intelligence assessments and the NIC on vulnerabilities of 2020 election infrastructure

The White House has released a new Election Integrity portal containing declassified intelligence assessments, investigative files, and reports covering 2020–2026.

Among the claims:

• Foreign adversaries had the capability to target election infrastructure.
• China obtained massive amounts of U.S. voter data.
• A Michigan voter-registration investigation is being reopened.
• DHS says it identified approximately 278,000 noncitizens on state voter rolls.

Trump DHS EXPOSES Chinese Election Hacking & BLM Support | Tim Pool

 

BLM EXPOSED As Chinese OP To STOP TRUMP | Tim Pool

This is wild. The former FBI official, Nikki Floris, who wrote in an email that she was “basically running a shadow government across the FBI,” testified in front of the House Judiciary Committee in October of 2019 on…. wait for it….

ELECTION SECURITY! You can’t make this shit up.

Here is a clip of Ms. Floris being asked if she knows of any foreign countries trying to hack into or interfere with the 2020 election. Her answer?

“Today we have not seen anything specific regarding hacking into the electorial systems of the 2020 election.”

Insane. They knew the whole time and actively hid it from the President of the United States.

They never thought they would get caught. Boy were they wrong!

And Nikki Floris was one of the agents who gave Senators Ron Johnson and Chuck Grassley a bogus “defensive” briefing in August 2020, undermining their Hunter Biden investigation by framing it as a Russian disinformation operation (heard that before), after which *somebody* leaked to the Washington Post, making it harder to subpoena witnesses and convince their RINO colleagues to support their efforts.

HOLEE SHIZZLES‼️A TRAP IS SET!

🚨 Obama Can now be summoned before a Grand Jury, but he CANNOT Plead the 5th because he has immunity from Prosecution

“He HAS TO TELL THE TRUTH… if he lies as a private citizen about what he did as President, he will not longer have that immunity. And that is the TRAP that Obama is potentially facing.

The irony is that on January 5, 2015, Obama presided over a meeting in the White House where the FBI just cleared General Mike Flynn of any wrongdoing.. and they schemed in that meeting how they might jam up.

That’s when they came up with the idea to lure him into an interview, catch him in a lie, and then prosecute him that way.

Barack Obama now is about to face a similar situation,”

Reviewing the White House fact sheet:

Top 10 Facts Revealed by the Declassified Intelligence

The Conservative Critique:
China Election Interference: Declassified documents show China targeted the U.S. election system to compromise infrastructure and influence voter behavior.

Massive Data Breach: China successfully breached and compromised data files containing information for approximately 220 million American voters.

Historical Scale: The Chinese data breach represents the largest recorded compromise of election-related data in American history.

Deep State Concealment: Intelligence agencies and specific federal officials deliberately hid the extent of this foreign interference from the public.

Withholding Evidence: Key elements within the intelligence community buried actionable data regarding external cybersecurity vulnerabilities before major elections.

Undermining Election Integrity: By withholding this information, federal bureaucrats actively prevented states from securing their local voting systems against foreign state actors.

Bypassing Oversight: Executive branch agencies purposely avoided congressional transparency requirements to keep the cover-up intact.

Selective Leaking: Government officials selectively leaked unrelated information to media outlets to distract from the reality of the Chinese data compromise.

Weaponization of Classification: The administrative state abused security clearance guidelines to lock away evidence of their own operational failures.

Political Protection: Bureaucrats protected specific political narratives by hiding evidence that directly contradicted mainstream media reports on election security.

Strategic Logic and the Principles of Consequences

Smart Thinking: Forcing the release of primary intelligence files cuts through administrative spin, forcing the public conversation to rely on documented facts rather than bureaucratic narratives.

Long-Term Thinking: Declassifying these files establishes a precedent for government transparency, ensuring the permanent records of institutional cover-ups remain accessible to prevent future overreach.

Understanding Consequences: Recognizing that leaving foreign interference hidden compromises national security, weakens public faith in elections, and leaves critical digital infrastructure permanently vulnerable to future attacks.

Defending Against Progressive Critiques

Exposing Narrative Hypocrisy: Critics who spent years demanding investigation into election interference are now attacking the actual declassification of foreign election interference data.

Revealing Selective Transparency: Left-wing arguments label the release of official files as a political threat, demonstrating they favor government secrecy when it protects the administrative establishment.

Confronting Double Standards: Progressive networks frequently rely on anonymous administrative leaks while simultaneously condemning the legal, authorized declassification of documents meant for public review.

Declassified: Michigan Voter Fraud and Chinese Influence Ops – Techno Fog

 

July 16, 2026 – NSA admits to withholding the China election intrusion from Trump

ATLANTA, GA. AUGUST 3, 2026 – Several newly declassified intelligence documents released by President Trump on July 16, 2026 clearly expose the existence of a dreaded intelligence “shadow government” as previously reported. One set of documents show that the National Security Agency (NSA), along with other groups in the Intelligence Community, withheld election manipulation evidence from Congress and the Presidential Daily Briefing (PDB) throughout the 2020 Presidential election cycle. One such document shows an NSA Strategic Intelligence Analyst admitting that: “We have deliberately massaged our one pending PDB to avoid any direct links to the election.”

Those direct links that were withheld define an in-depth intrusion by the Chinese Communist Party into U.S. elections beginning in 2018. For example, the intelligence shows how:

China hacked, bought or stole access to 220 million voter records to mine the Personal Identifying Information of Americans;

China imported 20,000 fake drivers’ licenses to be used for 2020 voter registrations;

China conducted a massive election influence initiative to denigrate President Trump using social media, U.S. journalists and pressure on political and financial supporters.

In spite of such dangerous foreign interference, much of the Intelligence Community (IC) chose to withhold virtually all intelligence confirming it throughout 2020. Agencies involved in this coverup included the NSA, Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), and the Bureau of Intelligence and Research (INR) for the State Department. This “deep state” coverup was instituted over objections from career staffers at the NSA and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), one of whom wrote: “The PDB isn’t going to tie to the election? The mind boggles”.

Garland Favorito, co-founder of VoterGA, read all newly released documents and concluded: “The declassified intelligence documents overwhelmingly prove we are in a national election security crisis and our own intelligence agencies have been compromised. Congress and the states have proven unable to protect American voters. We urge President Trump to declare a national emergency as the only way to secure future American elections.”

VoterGA is a non-partisan, 501(c)3 registered non-profit organization created by a coalition of citizens working to restore election integrity in Georgia. We advocate for independently verifiable, auditable, recount-capable, transparent, and tamper-proof elections.

July 20, 2026 – The Senate Homeland Security Committee releases docs that show FBI intervened and stopped BCP from questioning Peter Daszak returning from China

@SenRandPaul,  the Chairman of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, has just released internal federal documents which he says show that the FBI intervened and stopped CBP from searching and questioning Peter Daszak upon his return to the US from China at JFK airport in 2021 during the WHO’s investigation into the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The documents show that CBP’s National Targeting Center had flagged Daszak, President of EcoHealth Alliance, as an “extremely high person of interest” ahead of his arrival in the US, citing his more than 15 years of collaboration with the Wuhan Institute of Virology and his role as principal investigator on NIH grants funding bat coronavirus research in China, and that “much of the funding DASZAK receives is put towards gain of function research.”

The documents reveal that CBP had a series of questions they planned to ask Daszak when he landed and were going to search his media, until they were told to stand down by the FBI.

In an email dated 2/4/2021, a CBP official notifies others within CBP:

“Please be advised that FBI New York has requested we do not stop the subject below.”

Chairman Paul says as a result, the stop, search, and questioning of Daszak never happened.

Thank you for leading this report.

It’s so important that your agency is shining a spotlight on Antifa legal nonprofit the National Lawyers Guild and its links to terrorism, terrorists and Cuban state interests.

The NLG has chapters across nearly all law programs at both taxpayer-funded and private American universities. They teach future and current lawyers how to subvert the legal system to help violent far-left terrorists using unethical tactics. Unsurprisingly, one of the past lawyers for the trans death cult the Zizians is an NLG leader.

July 20, 2026 – Trump exposes the National Academy of Sciences for publishing fraudulent climate manuals used by federal judges

“The National Academy of Sciences has historically published analytical Scientific Manuals expressly for our Federal Judiciary. Of course, the Academy has been run by Radical Left Dumocrats who, it turns out, published fraudulent, biased, and misleading Manuals on Climate Change.

These bogus Manuals were used by Judges to decide massive “Climate Change” Cases, and have created huge losses across our Country. These Manuals have been totally DISCREDITED.

Our Nation’s Federal Judges deserve Facts and Science, not Political Fraud and False Science on Climate.

With this TRUTH, I hereby order Federal Suspension and Debarment Officials to review this conduct. Our Taxpayers should not be funding Climate Fraud, and Judges should never have relied upon it.”

Since the Johnson administration, numerous predictions have been made regarding the Earth’s future, yet none have materialized. Notably, the ozone layer was predicted to be depleted by 1999 during the 1970s. Furthermore, the 1970s also saw the prediction of an impending “Ice Age” that would lead to human extinction. Coral reefs were forecasted to be completely destroyed, and in the 1990s and early 2000s, California and coastal states were predicted to be submerged due to the melting of the North and South Poles. Interestingly, this prediction coincided with the acquisition of coastal properties by the elite, often at a reduced cost. Recently, AOC and Kerry predicted the end of the world due to “climate change,” despite the fact that climate change occurs four times annually: winter, spring, summer, and fall.

The climate agenda has always been touted to place fear in our society and as a bonus to the elites they make billions if not trillions of dollars off the backs of WE THE PEOPLE!
God created earth and He will decide if or when earth will be destroyed! The arrogance of humanity thinking that we can destroy what God created is the most stupid hoax perpetrated by the governments across the world.

July 21, 2026 – Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent reveals Biden HHS fired dozens of staff responsible for blocking fraud

WTF?! Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent just revealed that the Biden HHS FIRED dozens of staff responsible for blocking fraud

They de facto legalized fraud by doing this!

“The Biden administration HHS got rid of about 50 or 60 of the people who were charged with monitoring fraud!”

“And what’s important here is that we are stopping the money from going out. So once the money gets out trying to retrieve it’s very, very difficult so stopping it at the source here is our goal and there’s hundreds of billions of dollars here and this is the start. We are off to a great start.”

July 22, 2026 – Communist streamer Hasan Piker calls Mao “one of the greatest leaders” – Survivor of Mao responds

𝐗𝐈 𝐕𝐀𝐍 𝐅𝐋𝐄𝐄𝐓 𝐒𝐔𝐑𝐕𝐈𝐕𝐄𝐃 𝐌𝐀𝐎’𝐒 𝐅𝐀𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐄—𝐇𝐀𝐒𝐀𝐍 𝐏𝐈𝐊𝐄𝐑 𝐂𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐒 𝐇𝐈𝐌 ‘𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐆𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐓 𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐄𝐑𝐒’

Streamer Hasan Piker sparked backlash this month after a resurfaced clip showed him praising Mao Zedong — “𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥, 𝘢 𝘮𝘢𝘯 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘳𝘦 𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘦, 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘳𝘦 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘦𝘵” — days before he addressed the College Democrats of America convention on July 18 wearing a Mao-style suit (Fox News).

Xi Van Fleet, who survived Mao’s rule as a child in China, was asked what she thought when she heard the clip. Her answer didn’t need editing.

“𝘏𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘣𝘴𝘰𝘭𝘶𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘺 𝘢 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘴𝘮 𝘪𝘴 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵.

In 2022, I made a life-changing decision. I walked away from my job to do something I never imagined — write a book.

That book became Mao’s America: A Survivor’s Warning http://a.co/d/01jk7Q1i — about two Cultural Revolutions: one I survived in China 50 years ago, and one is unfolding in the United States.

But a bigger question remained: How did Communist China become America’s most powerful adversary?

That led me to write Made in America: The Hidden History of How the U.S. Enabled Communist China and Created Our Greatest Threat. http://a.co/d/0aCpDOfa

July 22, 2026 – Whistleblower says Native Americans were drugged, locked up in fake rehab, billions stolen from Medicaid

Reva Stewart says she began investigating the Medicaid fraud scheme after her cousin was allegedly lured with drugs and alcohol and kidnapped by operators posing as treatment providers.

A massive Medicaid fraud scheme in Arizona has left up to 2,000 Native Americans feared dead or missing, with whistleblowers and attorneys sounding the alarm that the nightmare is still ongoing.

New whistleblower allegations claim vulnerable Native Americans were allegedly lured into white vans with promises of treatment, then plied with fentanyl, methamphetamine, alcohol, and other drugs before being imprisoned inside fake behavioral health homes where operators allegedly billed Medicaid for months of fraudulent “treatment.”

Arizona officials have previously estimated the fraud exceeded $2.5 to $2.8 billion, while the latest whistleblower allegations contend the broader network may have generated up to $12 billion in fraudulent Medicaid claims over time.

Even more chilling, as many as 2,000 Native Americans may be dead or missing as a result of the sprawling scheme, according to NewsNation Now.

Arizona officials knew about the fraud as far back as 2019, according to the lawsuit.

The news outlet reported:

A Navajo advocate who has blown the whistle on fraudulent “sober living” homes in Arizona says she began shining a light on the Medicaid scam targeting Native Americans after her own cousin was kidnapped by operators who plied her relative with drugs and alcohol.

“They told her she would go to Phoenix for the day and (they would) take her home. All throughout the ride they gave her alcohol,” Reva Stewart told “Jesse Weber Live” on Friday.

She said the people who took her cousin demanded personal information from her as they tried to persuade her to stay at a residence. When her cousin refused, Stewart said, they gave her a fentanyl pill and “told her that she would have to find her way home.”

When Stewart learned of her relative’s ordeal, she realized there was a connection between other missing Native Americans and white vans that were observed cruising around tribal communities.

A civil lawsuit against the Arizona government says state officials enabled what essentially was a plot to divert as many as 7,000 Native Americans to fake sober living homes in Phoenix.

Operators allegedly charged billions in Medicaid services that were not provided as handlers plied residents with drugs. An estimated 2,000 victims are still missing, attorneys have said.

During a recent interview, Stewart detailed the ongoing lawsuit and whistleblower testimony, describing conditions that resemble human trafficking more than addiction treatment.

According to whistleblower accounts, recruiters allegedly drove through tribal communities in unmarked white vans looking for vulnerable people struggling with addiction.

Victims were allegedly offered food, shelter, and treatment before being transported to bogus treatment centers.

Once inside, many never received legitimate medical care.

Instead, whistleblowers say patients were deliberately kept addicted because every additional day meant another Medicaid reimbursement.

According to the testimony:

  • Patients were allegedly given fentanyl pills, methamphetamine, alcohol, and other drugs.
  • Doors were reportedly locked from the outside.
  • Security cameras monitored nearly every room.
  • Fences surrounded the properties.
  • Some victims allegedly escaped only by breaking windows or jumping over fences.
  • There are also allegations that people attempting to flee were shot at and that some victims were buried in unmarked graves, allegations that have not been independently verified in court.

July 22, 2026 – Senior Pentagon Director on hidden camera plots to “undo whatever’s been done” after Trump leaves office

O’KEEFE UNDERCOVER: Senior Pentagon Director Caught On Hidden Camera: Spills On A “Gay” Date With O’Keefe That He WILL “Undo Whatever’s Been Done [at the Pentagon]” After Trump Leaves Office To Reverse His Agenda…

“I’ve seen some things. In true D.C. nature, you don’t always reveal everything in D.C.”

“I have the influence…., I can undo whatever’s been done.”

“I think Trump is a narcissist.”

“Yeah. I think it’s [War in Iran] completely stupid, but it’s driven on one man’s [President Trump] ego to me, in my own personal opinion.”

“I mean, you [O’Keefe] could be a news reporter.”

Meet Brandon Newsom, a senior official in the Office of the Secretary of the Navy for 16 years. He oversees corporate operations supporting Secretary Hegseth, including HR, IT, security, facilities, records management, and implementation of executive orders.

This is our latest installment of exposing dissent within the deep state. Our hidden-camera investigations pull back the curtain on how the government operates behind closed doors.

In this undercover investigation Brandon discusses exact policies he would like to see changed under a future administration, including the federal government’s faith service program and schedule policy/career workforce reforms.

The first program policies he would seek to reverse is the Pentagon’s monthly voluntary faith service policy. This is a Christian monthly prayer worship service, readings from the Bible, and sermons from pastors. Brandon would like to provide a prayer service for all religions instead of just Christian faith services.

The second policy Brandon says he would seek to reverse is the schedule policy/career reform, a federal workforce change that moves certain senior career employees in policy-related roles into a new personnel category. Supporters argue it gives elected leaders more accountability over officials who help shape policy, while critics argue it could weaken protections traditionally afforded to career civil servants.

When I ask whether he has the authority to reverse said policies, the official responds: “I don’t have the authority to do that, but I have the influence.”

He argues that the real power of long-serving career bureaucrats lies in the positions they hold, saying, “It’s not about me, it’s about the position.”

Explaining why he has remained in government for 16 years despite disagreeing with the administration’s direction, Brandon says, “The way I look at it is… when the election changes… I want to stay and stick it out so that when the time comes, I can undo whatever’s been done.”

Brandon also shares his personal views on President Trump, telling me, “I think Trump is a narcissist.” He further criticizes the administration’s decision-making on Iran, stating, “Yeah. I think it’s [War in Iran] completely stupid, but it’s driven on one man’s ego to me in my own personal opinion.”

Brandon hints that he knows more about what goes on behind the scenes in Washington, telling me, “I’ve seen some things. In true D.C. nature, you don’t always reveal everything in D.C.”

Brandon also claims many of the Pentagon contracts cut under DOGE were data-related before major data contracts were later awarded to Palantir. When asked why, he suggests the company’s relationships with senior Pentagon officials may have played a role, stating, “That’s what it appears.” Palantir was later awarded up to $10 billion in U.S. Army data contracts.

Ironically, Brandon even acknowledges that I could be a reporter. “I mean, you could be a news reporter,” he says before continuing the conversation.

This begs the question: If a government director says he can slow or reverse a sitting President’s agenda, who really governs the country? Is it the individual Americans elect or the career officials who outlast every administration?

And maybe the biggest mystery of all: Why do government officials in D.C. keep spilling secrets to me when I’m just wearing a mustache.

For the record, Brandon Newsom is not related to California Governor Gavin Newsom.

We reached out to the Pentagon and Brandon for comment.

The Department of the Navy takes the conduct shown in this video extremely seriously. Such statements and apparent intent to leverage a position to undermine the policies and direction set by our elected leaders are inappropriate and incompatible with the standards expected of Department personnel.

Effective immediately, this individual has been placed on administrative leave while we determine next steps to ensure accountability and protect the integrity of our mission.

July 23, 2026 – New Jersey registered 6,600 noncitizens to vote, hundreds of them cast a ballot; DHS reports there are far more illegal voters on NJ voter rolls

New Jersey Democrat Governor Mikie Sherrill reports finding thousands of non-citizens improperly registered to vote, and hundreds who illegally voted.

Instead of taking responsibility for her state’s failure, Sherrill did what Democrats always do: lash out at Trump, Putin, and January 6.

Just hours after New Jersey Democratic Gov. Mikie Sherril blamed a software glitch for thousands of non-citizens being registered to vote, the software company involved issued a statement disputing the claim.

IDEMIA, the software vendor for the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission, issued a statement saying it was the responsibility of the state government, which is completely controlled by Democrats, to verify eligibility to vote.

“IDEMIA works with the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission, and has for more than 40 years, to support the process through which eligible individuals may indicate their interest in registering to vote when applying for or renewing a driver’s license or state-issued identification card. IDEMIA’s role is to transmit information through the motor vehicle system,” IDEMIA said in a statement to Just the News.

“The voter registration information is transmitted to the New Jersey Department of State, Division of Elections, which is ultimately responsible for verifying eligibility to vote. Information submitted by IDEMIA must still be validated and adjudicated by the Division of Elections.”

On July 17, 2026, DHS reported a much higher number of illegally registered voters in New Jersey:

The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Markwayne Mullin sent letters to the secretaries of state in four states warning them about tens of thousands of non-citizens who are illegally on the states’ voter rolls.

Secretary Mullin sent letters to California Secretary of State Shirley Weber, New Jersey Secretary of State Dale Caldwell, Nevada Secretary of State Francisco Aguilar, and Pennsylvania Secretary of State Al Schmidt.

“Election security is national security,” said DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin. “As President Trump announced last night, DHS has identified over 250,000 potential non-citizens illegally registered to vote in just 4 U.S. states. Only Americans should be electing American leaders.”

Through preliminary reviews of the four states’ records, DHS found that there may be as many as:

190,832 non-citizens registered to vote in California.
35,152 non-citizens registered to vote in New Jersey.
15,903 non-citizens registered to vote in Nevada.
14,576 non-citizens registered to vote in Pennsylvania.

July 23, 2026 – Investigators have extensive wiretap evidence on Jennifer Newsom and additional people are implicated

July 24, 2026 – After years of the mainstream media lying to the American public, they blame Trump for their demise

Here was how Chris Hayes opened the 8pm Eastern hour of MS NOW’s coverage of the #WHCD.

Chris, show me on the doll where Trump hurt you…

“Donald Trump famously has been hostile to the free press, almost implacably so. He believes it to be the enemy of the people and literally says as much almost every chance he gets. He thinks critical, accurate coverage of his presidency is tantamount to treason. He’s bullied and harassed reporters individually and gone after them in a million different ways. The last time he went to one of these things, he got roasted so bad it forever altered the political trajectory of our entire country.”

“There’s a significant amount of reporting to indicate that our very thin-skinned President was so humiliated that very night that he decided to run for president in 2016. And, well, we’ve been forced to live with the consequences of Trump’s vanity and thin skin for the past decade, day in, day out, night in, night out. Tonight, 15 years later, he will be back. He appears to be there on the dais, ready to show his face at the Correspondents Dinner once again. Of course, why are we doing this in the middle of the summer, which we don’t usually? He wanted to do so back in April. That event, as you might remember, was cut short when Trump was rushed off stage. Journalists took cover under tables, and shots were fired after a man identified by law enforcement as 31-year-old Cole Allen. You see him there sprinting through that security checkpoint, tried to storm the event, which is being held at the Washington Hilton, with a gun and other weapons. Prosecutors say the suspect fired a shotgun and struck a Secret Service agent’s protective vest. Thankfully, no one suffered any serious injuries. Allen has pleaded not guilty to federal charges, including attempting to assassinate the president. He faces life in prison should he be found guilty. But the president and the White House Correspondents Association decided the show must go on, that they weren’t going to be cowed by this awful act of attempted violence. The dinner rescheduled for tonight, and it is underway. As you can see as we speak now, we expect some really fantastic reporting to be acknowledged against the backdrop of Donald Trump’s war on the free press and against the backdrop of the man himself, sitting there and glowering at everyone. Just yesterday, his Department of Justice was excoriated by a federal district court judge who successfully, basically pushed them to quash their ill-conceived and harassing, I might say, subpoenas against journalists from The New York Times. The administration was trying to intimidate the paper for covering that private jet he was gifted by Qatar. One of those times reporters who was subpoenaed, Tyler page [sic] will be accepting an award tonight in recognition of courageous reporting by him and his colleagues. Trump, as you won’t be surprised, for his part, remains unrepentant.”

“I mean, that was just today, just a few hours ago. There he is at the White House Correspondents situation up on the dais. It’s gonna be a weird room tonight, I think it’s fair to say. And of course, I mean, the intimidation campaign doesn’t end there, right? This has been one of the most consistent themes of Trump’s whole political life, but particularly second term. I mean, attempting to coerce the press, threatening the First Amendment, acting like an authoritarian at every turn. His FCC is currently trying to shake down broadcast networks for refusing to air his low-energy White House address about fake voter fraud allegations last week. That might be top of mind for networks when deciding whether or not to take the President’s remarks tonight. He’s also suing the BBC for 10 billion — with a B dollars — over a documentary on his attempts to overthrow the 2020 election that he claims was deceptively edited. That might be headed to discovery soon, which will be pretty interesting. And that’s in addition to the lawsuits he’s settled with other networks like ABC and CBS, the latter of which is now run by his buddies, the Ellison family, who are big Trump supporters and donors. Trump’s DOJ is also trying to clear the way for them to buy CNN. He’s been almost explicit about the fact that he wants CNN under the aegis of his friends and supporters, so he can control the reporting there, although that today is facing some legal hurdles. We got an announcement that that’s going to stop moving forward for now. Tonight, I think it’s important to acknowledge the real courage of many, many journalists just to sort of line reporters and editors and producers in the face of Trump’s intimidation campaign, like those Times journalists who were harassed and subpoenaed, and The Times management that went onto war footing immediately to push back vigorously in the courts. And also all those folks at CBS, we’ve seen a bunch of high profile producers and reporters quit in protest, follow their conscience after they said that the new Trump friendly leadership again sort of installed after Trump allies took over the network with the regulatory blessing of the Trump administration, that that leadership of the network was stifling their editorial freedom, in some cases directing them to report things that weren’t true. And also, we should give some kudos to reporters at the well, the conservative Murdoch-owned Wall Street journal, a great newspaper, I gotta say, even if I don’t really like its editorial page, because they beat back a defamation lawsuit after they reported on a big scoop. Remember that? That thing there, you’re never going to get that out of your mind the rest of your life. As long as you live that insanely unnerving and creepy birthday card that Trump apparently sent to his old pal Jeffrey Epstein, making jokes about secrets and about how some things never age. Trump denies it was him. He sued over it. You can judge the signature for yourself. In fact, get this those Wall Street Journals who broke that story, stuck to that story, stared down the lawsuit? They’re going to be honored at tonight’s ceremony. In that very room. They’re all there together. We may dip in to listen to their stories. The larger context here is what the evening is about, as far as I can tell. As you can see there, this is sort of a perfect tableau of my next line. Trump seems to both love, attention and hate the press, right? There it is.”

“He enjoys public scrutiny from journalists about as much as he enjoyed being roasted by Obama back in 2011. He wants people to pay attention, but he wants to dominate and control the fourth estate, so it only reports on him positively and turns a blind eye to his flagrant, increasingly impossible to ignore historic corruption, his disregard for democracy, his flirtations with violence and the politics of violence. Now, he has seen, I think it’s fair to say, some real success at eroding, and cowing the press at the level of ownership. This is important. He has gotten corporate suits to kowtow to his demands, but what he cannot do and what he is unable to do, and what drives him crazy, and what you’re going to see tonight in that room, is that he cannot quash the regular reporters and journalists who refuse to be intimidated. And these are not like people with, you know, household names or a lot of money, a lot of cases. These are — these are just everyday folks, reporters, editors whose names you don’t know in newsrooms, big and small, lots of incredible local reporting we’ve seen through this age who’ve been working tirelessly to report on this administration accurately and fairly, despite the threats. That’s who is in the room tonight, along with Donald Trump sitting there on the dais.

July 24, 2026 – Ilhan Omar’s sister is linked to central figures In Minnesota’s fraud scandal

July 25, 2026 – A female police supervisor in Georgia is arrested for using Flock cameras to stalk her boyfriend

Paige Forte (Credit: public domain)

Every new surveillance tool arrives wrapped in the same shiny little sales pitch…

It’ll fight crime, find missing children, catch dangerous suspects before they can hurt anyone else, blah, blah, blah. All you have to do is hand over more of your privacy, trust the ghouls behind the curtain, and don’t ask too many questions.

Then, right on schedule, somebody uses it to spy on their boyfriend.

That’s what police say happened in Conyers, Georgia. A female supervisor inside the department’s Real-Time Crime Center reportedly used the Flock Safety license plate reader system to stalk the car driven by her boyfriend.

(…) Officials say Forte uses the cameras to do some old-fashioned girlfriend stalking.

Paige was placed on leave, investigated by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, arrested, and charged.

CBS News:

After auditing its Flock Safety Automated License Plate Reader system, the Conyers Police Department says it discovered one of its supervisors was misusing the technology.

The department said it launched an internal investigation and found that Paige Forte, a supervisor in the Real-Time Crime Center, allegedly accessed the system to track a vehicle driven by her domestic partner.

Forte was placed on administrative leave while the Georgia Bureau of Investigation conducted a criminal investigation. Conyers police said the GBI’s findings confirmed that Forte used the system for purposes unrelated to her law enforcement duties.

Forte has been arrested and faces charges related to the alleged misuse of the Flock Safety system.

“The integrity of our department depends on the public’s confidence that we use technology responsibly and within the law,” Chief Scott Freeman said in a statement. “When we discovered information suggesting our policies may have been violated, we acted immediately by launching an internal investigation and requesting an independent criminal investigation by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. No employee is above the law, and we will continue to hold ourselves to the highest standards of accountability.”

This is a breathtaking abuse of access, authority, and public trust.

(…) And it turns out across Atlanta, dozens of law enforcement officers have been fired or punished over misusing Flock cameras. These officers are accused of doing exactly what the public feared would happen… using a massive police database to search for people in their personal lives.

July 25, 2026 – Rand Paul: “Anthony Fauci kept a diary – What he wrote privately and what he told the country are two different stories”

UPDATE 8/1/2026

Obama described Trump as an ‘idiot’ and Don Jr a ‘f****** moron’ in call to Fauci, diaries reveal

Comments:

If you notice In Fauci Diary a guy name Christian Drosten is at the Feb 2020 call. Here is some important background. Christian Drosten is the literal person who “created the first PCR test for covid”. It came from a computer model and not a viral isolate.

He is also the same guy who Created the first PCR test for Ebola, Anthrax and others. His ” PCR” test is key to the creation of the false pandemic.

I am not surprised about him being at the meeting. Christian Drosten’s Paper that “established it as a valid covid test” was peer reviewed and determined to be an invalid test.

Of course, that peer review was then apparently forced to be retracted.

Here is that peer review paper

That is the peer review conclusion in second pic.

Now we’re finally getting to the damn core of it. All those so-called scientists, perched up high in their ivory towers, flapping their arrogant traps wide open to lecture and mock anyone who dared have an opinion on that massive Gain-of-Function experiment they ran on a herd of gullible sheep; they weren’t doing science at all. Just stroking their own egos the entire time.

Meanwhile a handful of actual scientists were grinding day and night, chasing down all these never-seen, unknown horrors triggered by that abominable C-19 jab and fighting tooth and nail to warn people about the toxic medical wreckage it caused. But this pack of mainstream-media scum just strutted around flaunting their total illiteracy and slammed the door shut on anyone who called out their criminal bullshit.

Unbelievable that the general public never woke up to how this rabble was drowning in insane conflicts of interest, or how they treated any open scientific debate with us like it was the fucking plague.

We are fed up with the false hope clown show. @DAGToddBlanche where are the covid era crimes against humanity trials?

Trials and proper punishment are necessary to protect us from those who wish to cull and control us… Otherwise, the town halls that @SenRonJohnson runs, and the hearing that @RandPaul has lined up are all a joke. We demand justice, or at minimum, be men and admit to us that the covid crimes are too large to confront and prosecute, because the country would collapse if trials are held and justice is carried out.

@SecKennedy Your book The Real Anthony Fauci is strong but what’s the plan for justice?

The corruption here is off the charts. Rand Paul has just released a trove of emails showing Fauci soliciting various so-called scientists to nominate him for awards, many of which Fauci then went on to win, receiving substantial prize money in the process.

This needs to be forensically dissected, preferably by the DOJ. But even looking at just one example, Barton Haynes of Duke, the questions are staggering. Fauci personally petitioned Haynes to nominate him for an award, which Fauci ultimately won, including $1 million in prize money. That alone raises serious ethical concerns.

But what really knocked me off my chair is that Haynes has received something like $1.2 billion (with a “B”) in funding from Fauci’s NIAID. The entire system is totally compromised, with a small circle of elites effectively doing favors for one another, all at taxpayer expense.

UPDATE 7/27/2026:

Fauci’s diary confirms that Fauci vastly over exaggerated C19’s death rate.

Why would he do that? Because they needed to create the narrative that C19 was dangerous enough to declare an emergency and overhaul the entire election system with mass mail-in ballots.

Fauci lied about how dangerous C19 was, because it was part of their plot to implement mass mail-in ballots, steal the 2020 election, and overthrow the sitting President of the United States.

This news about Fauci coming out just after we learned about CCP interference in 2020, is not an accident. These two things are very much connected. Fauci and USAID gain-of-function research created the virus, that the Deep State used to manufacture a global biological event, and steal the 2020 election.

This is as big as it gets. Crimes against humanity is an understatement.

(…) Multiple entries record his reactions to praise, media profiles, public adulation, and celebrity status amid the unfolding crisis.

In one entry, Fauci writes that during a White House Task Force meeting in the Situation Room, President Trump publicly praises him as “really a famous guy… the smartest, knowledgeable and outstanding persons he knows.”

He records being “surprised and very pleased” and “stunned and impressed” by the reactions of deputies, despite the meeting’s topic being evacuations, quarantines, and rising case numbers.

After congressional briefings amid discussions of expanding quarantines and a Public Health Emergency declaration, Fauci notes praise such as from former Rep. Anna Eshoo (D-CA) calling him a “national hero” and saying she “felt safe in his arms.”

Fauci also tracked growing media profiles and public gratitude, including noting positive media profiles from Politico and The New York Times, as well as an “amazing outflow of thanks from hundreds of people.”

He describes feeling “pretty safe” due to public adulation while cases surge.

On March 10, 2020, Fauci wrote, “For better or worse, I am becoming an international celebrity. Calls from all over the world.”

In late March–April 2020 entries, Fauci highlighted examples of the ‘adoration’ coming his way even as more and more Americans died and the elderly were trapped in away from loved ones.

He notes stories about “grandmothers who have crushes,” petitions for him as “Sexiest Man Alive,” coverage of his college basketball career, SNL spoofs, bobbleheads, fan merchandise (ie. beers named after him), an Instagram Live with celebrities like Steph Curry, and public “thirst”/fandom described in outlets like The Atlantic.

July 26, 2026 – Police departments across the country are switching the race of suspects to white

WHAT ON EARTH?!!!

Angelvis Jesus Quintero Fernandez, a “WHITE MALE” illegal immigrant FROM VENEZUELA who was arrested for TWO m*rder sin Charlotte NC…

…bizarrely had his “race” change from “WHITE” to “HISPANIC” ONLY AFTER the ICE detainer was placed on him!!!!

Whatever the true “WHITE” crime stats actually are, they are so much lower than any of his could possibly imagine.

This happens literally all the time.

WHAT ARE WE EVEN DOING HERE?!!!!!!

It has been revealed that the man who smashed into the car of 3 people in North Carolina, k*lling all of them…

…IS A MULTI-TIME CONVICTED CRIMINAL ILLEGAL ALIEN FROM EL SALVADOR!!!

He is labelled as a “WHITE MALE” in the charging documents.

One passenger was still alive, but Sola FLED THE SCENE… the passenger didn’t make it.

Witnesses say they heard a person screaming in pain at the crash, but by the time EMS got there and airlifted the passenger, it was too late.

Police had to bring in a K-9 team to track Javiel Sola down after he fled the scene of the crash, leaving all three victims.

Javiel Sola has been not just arrested, but CONVICTED for reckless endangerment, failure to stop after accident involving damage to attended vehicle, and driving without a license in Maryland in July 2015 + he ALSO has an arrest for escaping from custody.

Despite all of this… he was never deported.

July 27, 2026 – The Oversight Project releases 3 hours of Biden biographer audio tapes recorded between November 2015 and April 2016

The Oversight Project has finally received the recording of President Joe Biden’s interview with his ghostwriter, Mark Zwonitzer. The interviews occurred in 2016 and 2017 while the pair was writing Biden’s memoir, Promise Me, Dad. Special Counsel Robert Hur declined to prosecute Biden for mishandling classified information because he determined that a jury was unlikely to convict Biden because he presented as a “sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.” Biden’s conduct in these interviews contributed to Hur’s determination.

Today’s release of the tapes caps more than two years of litigation to bring transparency to the American People about the Autopen President. Since March 2024, the Oversight Project and the Heritage Foundation fought tooth and nail to bring these tapes to light. Together, we defeated both the Biden-led Justice Department and his high-price private attorneys. These tapes we are releasing today should have come out a long time ago. The Oversight Project will never stop fighting for transparency in government. These records belong to you, because It’s Your Government.

Key takeaways:

1 – The extent of Biden’s disclosure of classified information is much more egregious than previously disclosed by Special Counsel Hurr. At several points in the tapes, Biden references the information he is reviewing is likely classified, which is followed by significant audio redactions for classified information. This was not just once or twice, these classified redactions cover significant portions of the audio files released. The listener shouldn’t overlook the audio redactions because those redactions are intended to cover the disclosure of classified information, so the silence of the redactions loudly demonstrates that Biden knowingly and willfully disclosed classified information to his ghostwriter. As confirmed by the redaction code in the transcripts, Biden disclosed classified CIA, DOD, and other serious national security information to his ghostwriter as part of the process of writing his book.

2 – Within six months of leaving office, either Biden’s decline was already so progressed that he didn’t recognize the limitations of sharing extensive classified information, some of it highly compartmentalized national security information, or his decline was already well underway in early 2017.

3 – Biden was already demonstrating significant cognitive decline. In the sections of the audio tapes that were not redacted, Biden references his confused state of mind on many days. As we know occurred during his Presidency, Biden was clearly experiencing good days and bad days as far back as 2017. From forgetting the name of Congressman Jim Clyburn to multiple statements of “I’m so confused” and “I can’t remember”, it was clear that Joe Biden was not sharp in 2017.

4 – This 2017 audio proves why his campaign used the cover of Covid to hide Biden in the basement because if he was forced to speak in public and off the cuff throughout the campaign, Biden’s cognitive decline would have been as obvious as it was in his debate with President Trump in 2024.

5 – Not only do these audio tapes prove that Biden lied when he previously claimed that “[he] did not share classified information” with his ghostwriter, but it proves the entire Biden White House orchestrated a willful coverup of the facts to the American people when they tried to discredit the Hur report in 2024.

Oversight Project Vice President of Litigation Jeff Clark gave this statement:

“Two and half years ago, the Oversight Project began a lonely project trying to get access to Biden’s ghostwriter tapes where he disclosed classified information to writer Marc Zwonitzer. To date, Biden has paid zero consequences for betrayal of the country. The release of the tapes today, after the Oversight Project won pitched battles with the Biden DOJ and then against Joe Biden’s white-shoe lawyers in D.C., should cause a thorough reexamination of the non-prosecution recommendation of Special Counsel Robert Hur in February 2024. On the tapes, (in audio gaps/transcript redactions) Biden clearly gives away secret after secret to someone not authorized to hold such secrets. And he did it all for personal and family profit to the tune of $8 million! Americans want to see accountability. Now you know why Biden’s lawyers fought so hard to keep these tapes and transcripts out of the public’s watchful eye!”

Oversight Project President Mike Howell gave this statement:

“The tapes have always belonged to the American People, the Oversight Project just delivered them to their rightful owner. We now know what has been long assumed: the autopen scandal extends far back beyond just when Joe Biden “ran” for president from his basement. These tapes have so many pauses and “ums” that it sounds like Biden is buffering like a dial-up Internet connection. The knowledge of his deterioration was well-established. The sin of the autopen administration is corporate and accountability should be had on all enablers. We can never have a presidential administration run by machinized fiat again. Only one person can be president at a time, and ideally that person should actually win a credible election.”

July 27, 2026 – Gavin Newsom appoints CAIR-backed Sharia warrior as judge

CONQUERED: AMERICA BOWS TO SHARIA

California’s Gavin Newsom Installs CAIR-Backed Sharia Warrior as Judge

America….They want you to believe this is just another “diverse” left-wing appointment.

It’s not.

California just handed a black robe to Haaris M. Syed – a devout Muslim who spent over 13 years refusing to assimilate and forced our government to submit to Islamic finance law. – AKA SHARIA!

He turned down hundreds of thousands in taxpayer-funded retirement matching because “Riba is haram.”

Then he sued Los Angeles County until they created special Sharia-compliant investment options just for him.

Stanford’s tax-funded Legal Clinic helped. Terrorist Group CAIR celebrated. Left-Wing Gavin Newsom appointed him.

This is how it works: One lawsuit. One “religious accommodation.” One black robe at a time.

Syed didn’t bend to America.

He made America bend to Sharia.

And now he sits in judgment over the rest of us.

The Red-Green Alliance is no longer a theory. It’s wearing a judicial robe in Los Angeles.

July 27, 2026 – Investigative reporter Natalie Winters: Dozens of American journalists are on China’s payroll

The New York Times, CNN, MSNBC, The Washington Post, NPR, the Associated Press, Vox, The Atlantic, the Los Angeles Times, the Chicago Tribune, and more…

The identities were buried.

Foreign-agent filings reveal that operatives working for a Chinese Communist Party-linked influence organization planned free trips for American journalists based on the potential for “favorable coverage” and sought to “effectively disseminate positive messages” about Beijing.

But the filings did not plainly identify the reporters who received the access.

By cross-referencing the filings with archived newsletters, annual reports and contemporaneous accounts, this investigation has uncovered the names of prominent American journalists who participated in China trips organized or funded by the China-United States Exchange Foundation, or CUSEF.

The roster includes current and former journalists from The New York Times, CNN, MSNBC, The Washington Post, NPR, the Associated Press, Vox, The Atlantic, the Los Angeles Times, the Chicago Tribune and other major American news organizations.

In several cases, the trips were followed by columns and reports defending Chinese government policies, attacking President Trump’s confrontation with Beijing or presenting the decline of American manufacturing as unavoidable.

CUSEF was founded by Tung Chee-hwa, a former vice chairman of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, a central component of the Chinese Communist Party’s United Front system.

A bipartisan congressional report explains that the United Front seeks to “co-opt and neutralize sources of potential opposition to the policies and authority” of the CCP. Its targets include foreign governments, universities, businesses, media organizations and other institutions capable of shaping public opinion.

CUSEF’s own foreign-agent records reveal how that strategy was applied to the American press.

Washington lobbyists and public-relations firms working for the organization described plans to recruit influential journalists, generate “favorable coverage” and “effectively disseminate positive messages to the media, key influencers and opinion leaders, and the general public” regarding China.

The identities of the journalists were not presented together in the filings. They emerge only after matching those records with CUSEF’s own publications and accounts from the trips.

July 29, 2026 – Dr. Deborah Birx must be next focal point in Covid mitigation policy investigations

With Dr. Anthony Fauci now under renewed fire after pleading the Fifth during a U.S. Senate hearing this week, I would argue that more attention should be directed to Dr. Deborah Birx, the former White House COVID coordinator and essentially Fauci’s partner in thrusting their experimental pandemic policies on the American public.

As a reminder, I reviewed a documentary that offered chilling details on Birx and her direct role in creating the lockdown disaster that still impacts this country to this day.

…Birx continued to issue lockdown policies using White House stationery and scuttling Trump’s attempts to reopen the country.

The kicker: Pence allowed Birx to use Air Force Two to fly around the country and undermine the efforts of Atlas and the other serious and well-qualified scientists who disagreed with the Birx model.

Perhaps the most chilling aspect of the documentary was the audio of Birx herself bragging about how she subverted Trump and his advisors.

Well, with a little help from Pence: “I made it very clear to the Vice President, and I said, “You know I’m saying exactly the opposite of what the president is saying, and what Scott Atlas is saying. And the Vice President said, “You do what you need to do.

Now, during her appearance on CBS News‘ “Takeout” With Major Garrett, Birx is desperately trying to distance herself from the mitigation monstrosity she created. Her position should have… evolved.

“I think all of us need to be quite honest with ourselves about how not only the information evolved, but the needs for the relevant, what we call, countermeasures, should have also evolved,” Birx responded.

“What do I mean by that? When this first hit, we didn’t have enough testing out there. We couldn’t stop the spread in any way. Hospitals were being overrun. We didn’t have a supply chain that matched the need.

“And so the first part in the few months were a crisis,” she said. “But once we got additional therapies, monoclonal antibodies, long-acting monoclonal antibodies, Remdesivir, where there were actually additional treatments, then you can pull back on some of the mitigation.”

Birx tossed both Fauci and Blue States under the bus. She asserts the response became “political” and that Democrat-led states “over-closed.”

There were solutions, but it became very political, and we all have to be aware because it was a presidential election year, it was really important for blue states to show that they were taking this very seriously. And they over-closed. And we just have to be honest that that happened. And that’s why that discussion from both sides of the aisle and a resolution and a way to go forward is critical so that we can do this right in the future.

Dr. Deborah Birx, who worked closely with Dr. Anthony Fauci on the COVID-19 White House task force, told NewsNation Democrat-led states “over-closed” in 2020 in an effort to show they were serious about the pandemic.

I will simply note that Birx did not receive one of those handy Biden Autopen pardons, and as David Strom of Hot Air notes, she is every bit as culpable as Fauci. (Read more: Legal Insurrection, 8/1/2026) (Archive)

July 29, 2026 – Mainstream Media keeps public in the dark and provides cover for Fauci claiming the hearing was partisan; Social Media responds with truths

CNN’s Erin Burnett asks an NYU law professor if Fauci is in real trouble after pleading the Fifth 111 times.

His answer: It made things WORSE.

BURNETT: “112 times to invoke the Fifth Amendment. I mean, you can’t even string all that together… Will that strategy work? Because he says, well, ‘I had to do that because, you know, they’re looking for perjury traps,’ or does that just make it worse and is he in real trouble?”

GOODMAN: “I think it makes it worse. It’s even a curious way in which you wonder what his legal advice was, why they decided to do that. Because he does not face criminal jeopardy for the pardon. In all likelihood, he’s pardoned for all actions before January 2025. But that also means that you’re forced to testify.”

“That’s how prosecutors use immunity or pardons. And they say now you’re forced to testify because you don’t have any criminal liability… So then to plead the Fifth is actually he could then be held in contempt. There could be theoretically, at least, a Justice Department that goes after him for not answering when he is not really facing that criminal charge.”

BURNETT: “And also when the reason [to plead the Fifth] is perjury traps… to the layperson, it’s saying, well, ‘Why wouldn’t you just say the truth? What would be the problem in that?’ So… it doesn’t sound good.”

RFK Jr. fights through Fox News’ commercial break music to expose Dr. Fauci for funding research designed to HIDE human fingerprints on lab-created bugs.

Kennedy says Fauci paid Ralph Baric to develop a technique called “no-see-em,” which makes pathogens more dangerous and covers up the evidence of human manipulation.

Baric went on to teach this technique to the “Bat Lady” at the Wuhan Lab.

Fauci knew this. Then spent years telling the public COVID came from a “natural origin.”

RFK JR: “He was lying about the origins from day one. Why was he lying? Because he funded those studies at the Wuhan lab, and he funded the studies at the University of North Carolina that developed the techniques for weaponizing COVID-19.”

“And then [he] gave those to Ralph Baric, his funded scientist at the University of North Carolina, gave those to Shi Zhengli, the scientist, the ‘bat lady’ scientist in the Wuhan lab. And he taught her a technique that Anthony Fauci had paid him to develop called seamless ligation, which is also called ‘no-see-em.'”

“It’s a way of manipulating the virus to make it deadly to human beings and then covering up the evidence of human manipulation.”

“And why would anybody spend NIH money developing that kind of technology?”

“It’s bioweapons technology. It has nothing to do with public health. It’s the opposite. It’s the inverse of anything you would want to do with public health.”

“Well, he took that, and he gave it to the Chinese military lab at Wuhan.”

HANNITY: “Mr. Secretary, it’s chilling what you’re describing. Chilling that this all happened.”

Ron DeSantis says Fauci calling him a jerk in his private diary is one of his PROUDEST moments as governor.

DESANTIS: “He would come down to Florida and do TV hits on local news, attacking me for mandating that schools be open, for allowing restaurants to function and all this other stuff. And he would even host conference calls with mayors and counties, as a way to circumvent our policies and to impose mandates. And we BLOCKED it.”

“And… one of the most proud things that I can say since I’ve been governor is reading the diary entry, you know, where he was attacking me for blocking local mask mandates that he was trying to engineer around our back.”

WATTERS: “He called you a jerk!”

DESANTIS: “I think it was a disgraceful performance. He did do that… I think he’s probably the most destructive bureaucrat in the history of the United States of America.”

Joe Rogan just went off on Anthony Fauci with lead actor from Shawshank Redemption Tim Robbins for mandating masks and lockdowns during the 2020 pandemic which caused severe developmental damage to children:

ROGAN: “Children weren’t even susceptible to the virus. Why are they in lockdown wearing a mask? What are we really doing here?”

ROBBINS: “Science became a religion.”

ROGAN: “Fauci said that when you are criticizing Anthony Fauci you are criticizing science. That’s such a wild thing to say.”

ROBBINS: “If you questioned the religion, you got kicked out of the cult.”

ROGAN: “Science is supposed to evolve from hypothesis to hypothesis based on new data. Science isn’t supposed to be a brick that you aren’t allowed to question.”

ROBBINS: “I don’t believe in experts anymore. If you consider yourself an expert that means you’re done learning. I can’t trust people who have stopped challenging themselves.”

ROGAN: “Real experts from MIT and Harvard were getting deplatformed for saying that the lockdown was bad for children.”

ROBBINS: “Those kids had two years of socialization robbed from them.”

ROGAN: “Imagine if that was your senior year of high school.”

ROBBINS: “Kids stopped making eye contact with each other when the lockdowns ended. They were completely desocialized. All they would do is look at the floor.”

ROGAN: “It’s so critical for toddlers to develop by reading people’s faces. Imagine being a toddler and seeing everyone with a mask on. Everyone is robbing a bank now? This is nuts.”

History repeats itself because human behaviour doesn’t change…

1980’s: Bactrim, a repurposed drug for AIDS patients was banned by Dr. Fauci because he wanted his designer drug, ‘AZT’ to get Emergency Use Authorization. Millions died.

2021: Hydroxy and Ivermectin, a repurposed drug for ‘Covid’ was banned by Dr. Fauci because he wanted his designer drug, ‘Remdesivir’ to get Emergency Use Authorization. Millions died.

ARREST HIM NOW

The Real Anthony Fauci became the #1 non-fiction hardcover bestseller despite being the most censored book of the decade. Bookstores, including national chains, refused to carry it. Libraries refused to carry it. Every major newspaper declined to review it. The New York Times refused to publish a paid advertisement for the book and made it #7 on its bestseller list, even though it outsold any other book by thousands of copies.

YouTube took down videos of a book signing. Amazon shadow banned it. Twitter wouldn’t let the publisher promote it.

Despite all of that, 1.4 million Americans bought the book because they were tired of the lies and they wanted their freedom back.

Then today, with hundreds of millions of Americans demanding the truth, Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment 111 times at his Senate hearing. The American people waited six years for answers. Today, they got silence. But that silence told us all we needed to know.

Thank you, @SenRandPaul, for your relentless pursuit of truth, transparency, and accountability. 🇺🇸

Mainstream Media Bias in Fauci Hearings: Republicans Were Mean To Him 8/2/2026

July 29, 2026 – Anthony Fauci invokes the Fifth Amendment to all questions – Highlights

Fauci refused to answer and questions, and invoked the 5th Amendment 111 times.

Is this the behavior of an innocent man?

He has a blanket pardon, what is he afraid of? Is he afraid his autopen pardon won’t hold?

Is he protecting himself? Or is he protecting his co-conspirators?

If Fauci actually cared about public health and “science”, wouldn’t he do everything in his power to help us understand where he went wrong, so we can prevent it in the future?

One thing is for certain. Fauci, and the Obama/Biden administration, know they have been caught and they know they are being hunted.

Dr. Fauci says Rand Paul has an “UNHINGED OBSESSION WITH ME,” all while he can’t keep his paper still during his opening statement.

“Given Senator Paul’s obvious obsession with calling for my prosecution, his repeated slanderous comments about me, and recently his publicly releasing my unredacted personal diary aimed at embarrassing and intimidating me, the only conclusion I can reach is that the sole reason he is calling me before this committee is to get me to say something, anything, that could vindicate his repeated public pledges that I end up, in his words, quote, ‘behind bars,’ unquote.”

“Any reasonable person who has followed his unhinged obsession with me would readily come to the same conclusion. Therefore, although it pains me to do so, because of the respect I have for the legislative branch of government and my decades-long record of cooperating with Congress, under the advice of my attorneys, I will invoke my right under the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution to refrain from answering your questions.”

An angry Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) says Dr. Fauci needs to be ARRESTED and LOCKED UP before he even leaves Capitol Hill today

“He should be LOCKED UP before he leaves this BUILDING today, put in prison and put on trial! We lost 20,000-30,000 in Alabama ALONE, and I hope every damn one of them sues Fauci! If we can’t put him in prison, put him in court for the rest of his life where he can listen to the death he caused!”

“He KlLLED PEOPLE!”

Ron Johnson confronts Dr. Fauci with a huge stack of papers, each one showing that ivermectin WORKS.

JOHNSON: “You said there’s no evidence that ivermectin is helpful.”

“On that exact same day… There was a website that was tracking the randomized controlled studies.”

“Here they are showing 60, 70% efficacy of ivermectin. The same day you say there’s no evidence. There was all kinds of evidence.”

If you only watch ONE video from the Fauci hearing today, it should be this one…

Bernie Moreno: “It was about six years ago today that I decided I’m going to give up my businesses, sell them all, run for office, run for the United States Senate.

Here I am sitting in front of you six years later, saying, “Who the fuck do you think you are for doing that?”

It is a total disgrace what you did to this country and my Democrat colleagues are standing there defending you.

I hope the voters of the United States of America watch the clips of every one of you doting on a guy who is more interested in being a celebrity than saving American people.

I will make it my mission to make certain that every single one of those Democrats who did that will see that clip over and over and over again.

Because there is no defense of what you did. You may have had a 50+ year legacy of public service, but it ends in total and complete disgrace.”

Absolute MIC DROP!!!!!

Josh Hawley brings the receipts and exposes Dr. Fauci for using 8 different federal employees on federal time to chase over $1,000,000 in cash prizes for himself.

“You got RICH while people were dying.”

“You were using federal employees with TAXPAYER MONEY to apply for and solicit cash prizes for you personally. Cash prizes totaling over a million dollars.”

“And what were these individuals doing in the depth of the pandemic in November of 2020 when millions of Americans were suffering from COVID? What were they doing? I tell you what they’re doing. Folkers was on your behalf soliciting and gathering information for a cash award.”

“Let’s look at it. We’ve got his email right here. Right over my shoulder. Folkers says, ‘I’m working on this nomination for the Dan David award for Fauci. We need to beef up the COVID part. Do you have language in the that you could share that delineates how we responded in new ways to Covid.'”

“He sends this to multiple federal employees. What was the Dan David award? Do you remember, doc?”

FAUCI: “On the advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.”

HAWLEY: “It was a $900,000 cash award. $900,000 cash award. And he got it because he used federal employees to get it. And this wasn’t the only award, was it, Dr. Fauci? In fact, you applied for and received at least eight other federal cash prizes on federal time using federal employees and federal resources.

“Here they are over my shoulder. Besides the Dan David award, you’ve got the Partnership for Public Service. You’ve got the Adelson prize, you’ve got the Smithsonian award, you’ve got the National Academy of Medicines award, you’ve got the CDC Foundation. In fact, you turn your staff into a full-time application machine.”

“You actually wrote to people and said, ‘Do you think maybe I’d qualify?’ And you got cash for all of this. And it wasn’t just one or two employees, was it? In fact, you used eight separate federal employees on federal time using federal resources to solicit cash awards. Isn’t that true?”

FAUCI: “On the advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.”

HAWLEY: “Here they are, right over my shoulder. Here’s all of them. The people that you use federal employees so that you could go and get cash money.”

[Names listed on board]

– Lawrence Tabak
– Holli Jaffe
– Patricia Conrad

– Katherine Miller
– Hugh Auchincloss

“And the most hilarious part is that you weren’t content to even dragoon them into applying for all of these cash awards. You then had them go out to the ethics agencies and ethics watchdogs and demand that you be able to get the money. That’s right.”

“We’ve got it in your emails. Your staff and employees on federal time using federal resources, being paid with federal dollars, are soliciting cash for you. And then they’re turning around and saying to the agency, ‘We don’t want just an answer. We want to get to yes.’

“Because Fauci wants the money.”

Full Hawley:

Rand Paul announces the committee will be voting to hold Dr. Fauci in CONTEMPT OF CONGRESS after Fauci invokes the fifth amendment over 80 times

This carries up to a YEAR of prison time.

Paul argues that Fauci does NOT have a fifth amendment right against self-incrimination, as Biden’s autopen pardon protects him. Therefore, Fauci can be COMPELLED to answer questions.

PAUL: “My question was limited to the period of your pardon only. I find your objection UNSUPPORTED and DIRECT YOU to answer the question.”

FAUCI: *pleads fifth*

PAUL: “Because you refuse to answer citing a privilege unsupported because of your pardon and after being denied to do so this committee has scheduled a vote next week on a resolution certifying your contempt”

Why was Fauci pardoned “for any offenses against the United States which he may have committed or taken part in”, beginning January 1, 2014?

That’s precisely when Fauci and the Obama administration offshored US gain of function research, to black sites like Ukraine.

Hunter was pardoned beginning the exact same day, January 1, 2014, just before Metabiota received a massive DoD contract for operations in Ukraine. Hunter Biden was the bagman, or proxy, for Obama/Biden’s corrupt dealings in Ukraine, to include their nefarious biological activity at Metabiota.

All of this made possible right after the Maidan coup, regime change in Ukraine in early 2014, and the beginning of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and the annexation of Crimea.

Fauci and the Biden Administration admitted their guilt when they issued these pardons. They know they’ve been caught, and they tried to cover their tracks.

Whatever they were doing in Ukraine, it’s what they fear most, and all signs seem to point to Metabiota.

30 Years ago, Dr. Robert Willner accused Dr Anthony Fauci of GENOCIDE stating Anthony Fauci’s AZT drug, which was heavily promoted and fast-tracked under Fauci’s influence for AIDS treatment in the late 1980s, was highly toxic and actually killed many patients rather than helping them.

He claimed AZT caused severe side effects and deaths, amounting to mass harm enabled by Fauci and federal health authorities and called out thd media for protecting Dr Fauci.

“I think Hitler would ENVY the job being done by members of the National Institute of Health, & even the media in this country.

I will put the Light of the individuals of the NIH, Galo, Fauci, Hazeltine, Essexx & the rest of these scoundrels of the worst order, guilty of GENOCIDE.

They have been putting out a KILLER drug KNOWINGLY!”

30 years later, we watched a media owned by Big Pharma, protect Anthony Fauci once again as history clearly repeated itself! 😡

To justify mRNA vaccine mandates, Americans were told the shots would stop infection, block transmission, and end the spread of COVID.

None of that was true, and Fauci knew it.

Trust collapsed not because Americans became “anti-science,” but because Fauci misled the public, moved the goalposts, and worked with Big Tech to silence dissent.

In August 2022, Fauci wrote in his own diary that he pushed the CDC to avoid saying the vaccines were “not effective at all in preventing infection and transmission.”

Why?

Because it “would undermine the DOJ’s efforts at mandates.”

He suppressed the truth to protect the mandates, not the public.

Meanwhile, the people chanting “trust the science” were silencing scientists:

Dr. @RWMaloneMD: banned from Twitter.
Dr. @P_McCulloughMD: smeared and deplatformed.
Dr. @DrJBhattacharya: smeared and shadowbanned.

Millions of other Americans were censored, mocked, or branded “conspiracy theorists” for questioning lockdowns, school closures, treatment protocols, natural immunity, or vaccine efficacy.

The same Left and media that attacked them still runs cover for Fauci and his agency’s funding of GOF coronavirus research in Wuhan.

Science advances through skepticism, open debate, and challenges to established claims.

Fauci and the Left’s COVID playbook relied on the opposite: captured agencies, Big Tech, and corporate media working together to crush dissent and protect the official narrative.

Fauci wanted to become the world’s most famous scientist.

Instead, he did more to destroy public trust in science than anyone in our lifetime.

July 30, 2026 – FCC Chair Brendan Carr exposes ‘The View’ with a video montage of the hosts campaigning for Democrats

Federal Communications chief Brendan Carr posted a montage video to social media of some of ABC daytime talk show The View’s most biased, left-wing chatter and electioneering for Democrats as the agency considers whether the show has broken federal equal time rules.

Carr posted the video on Thursday and wrote that, “Disney is arguing to the FCC that its ABC show The View is a ‘bona fide news program.’”

“Disney claims that its decisions are based on “newsworthiness”—rather than partisan purposes—and thus exempt from political equal time rules,” he added to the video post.

“The FCC will make its decision based on all relevant evidence and precedents,” he concluded on his July 30 X post.

The video shows various members of The View’s panel advocating exclusively for the Democrat Party and denigrating Republicans.

Still, in other comments Carr also said that he does not view the FCC as the “speech police.”

Appearing recently on The Conversation podcast, hosted by POLITICO’s Dasha Burns, Carr said that his job is to apply the laws Congress has passed.

“I don’t view the FCC as the speech police,” Carr told Burns. But he added, “we should be appropriately applying and enforcing the laws that Congress passed,” and noted that broadcasters are obligated to use their programing to advance the “public interest.”

“I think in the media space in particular, the FCC over the last 20 or 30 years really backed away from the regulatory framework that Congress put in place,” Carr said. “And I don’t think it’s been a good thing, either in terms of our job of administering the law or the outcome that we’re seeing across the media sector.” (Read more: Breitbart News, 7/31/2026)  (Archive)

July 31, 2026 – The “Board of Peace” reaches an agreement “for the complete disarmament of Hamas and all other armed groups in Gaza

BQQM… the Board of Peace is no longer a theory about what comes after the old order…

It is now exercising the authority the UN claimed, the security role NATO claimed and the coordination role the WEF tried to seize… bringing sovereign nations, regional powers, military enforcement, reconstruction capital and political settlement into one operating structure that can actually move…

Gaza is the proof point… disarm the armed factions, replace the governing regime, phase out the occupation, deploy a stabilization force, install local security and rebuild under one command architecture…

The UN talks… NATO expands conflict… the global institutions divide authority until nothing can be solved…

The Board of Peace consolidates the mission, the leverage and the consequence… turning the BRICS+ sovereign realignment, the Abraham Accords and Trump’s bilateral deal network into a functioning global peace architecture…

The old institutions are not being reformed… they are being made obsolete by a structure that can end wars they were built to manage…

August 1, 2026 – Only a small number of Democrats speak out against the communist infiltration of their party

Bill Maher TORCHES Communists Democrats: “Two Democratic congressmen released an open pledge that they wanted their fellow Democratic members to sign. It said, ‘We are capitalist, not socialist. We want safety, not lawlessness. We are proud, not ashamed of America.’”
“You know how many did [sign onto the pledge]? 8 out of 212.”
“Guys, really there’s got to be an easier way to LOSE the swing states.”

Democrat Infighting Intensifies: Carville Threatens Exit Over Socialist Streamer

Veteran Democratic strategist @JamesCarville recently declared he will not remain in the same party as progressive streamer @hasanthehun (Hasan Piker) if the latter becomes a major force within the Democratic movement, stating one of them would have to leave.

The remarks, captured in a @FoxNews interview and amplified by accounts including @MorseReport, come amid ongoing clashes over whether the party should pursue centrist strategies or shift further left ahead of the midterms.

This episode serves as further evidence of deepening division in the Democrat party, pitting longtime establishment figures like @JamesCarville against rising socialist-leaning influencers such as @hasanthehun, a tension that @FoxNews and other national conservative outlets have highlighted as a growing risk to party unity and electoral prospects.

The following 13 individuals have reportedly signed the “Promise to America” pledge as of June 26, 2026:
Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-NY) — Co-leading the initiative
Rep. Adam Gray (D-CA) — Co-leading the initiative
Rep. Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ)
Rep. Susie Lee (D-NV)
Rep. Don Davis (D-NC)
Rep. Vicente Gonzalez Jr. (D-TX)

August 2, 2026 – HiTOPS, a nonprofit of LGBTQ+ groomers who teach queer theory and gender ideology, say it’s critical to “catch kids when they’re starting puberty”

This is the most disturbing video you will see all day. Director of education for HiTops, an LGBTQ+ nonprofit focused on bringing queer theory and gender ideology into schools, says that the most critical time to get in the classroom are grades 5-8, to “catch kids when they’re starting puberty.”

She goes on to say the most rewarding experience for her was after going into an elementary school,  5 of students went to the principal’s office and “came out.”

This is simply demonic. But they’re not coming for your kids, right?

Investigative journalists spoke with HiTOPS leadership in 2023, where they revealed how they sneak woke LGBTQ+ curriculum into elementary schools and indoctrinate children without parental knowledge.

During their conversation with HiTOPS executive director, Lisa Shelby, and Hannah Wiers, a health educator, the journalists uncovered the deceptive tactics they use to brainwash children and further a key goal of eliminating the opt-out clause for parents when it comes to the curriculum they push.

“That’s our real, I guess, that’s our, like, real sort of goal would be to remove opt-out class, or like, opt-out policies,” Wiers told the journalists.

(Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 8/2/2026)  (Archive)

HiTOPS, Inc. (Princeton, NJ) is mainly funded by private foundations. Its largest recent funder is the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation ($408k across grants 2020-2024). Others include Curtis W. McGraw Foundation, Princeton Area Community Foundation, Macmillan Family Foundation, and Fidelity Charitable. Seed funding came from Betty Wold Johnson in 1987; it has also received past federal grants from HHS.

August 3, 2026 – The Islamic call to prayer conquers another American city – Minneapolis

In case you did not know about this, the Adhan, or Islamic call to prayer, is now blasting across Minneapolis five times per day.

The Minneapolis City Council – with Muslim members – approved a resolution unanimously back in 2023 that changed the city’s noise ordinance to accommodate this public disruption.

Minneapolis is the first major US city where the adhan has become law. Minneapolis set a precedent for other Muslim communities to follow.

The Council of American Islamic Relations (CAIR) celebrated the passage of the resolution at the time.

Of course, Christian and Jewish groups also reportedly supported the development. Wow.

According to the CRC Network, the Adhan is the announcement of a number of key doctrines in Arabic as a call to prayer.

It states:

​​​​​​Allahu akbar= Allah is greater than… 4x
Ashadu an la ilaha illa Allah= I bear witness that there is no god but Allah…2x
Ashadu anna Muhammadan rasul Allah= I bear witness that Muhammad is the apostle of Allah…2x
Hayya ala s-salah= Come to prayer…2x
Hayya ala l-falah= Come to success/prosperity…2x
…only at the pre-dawn prayer…As-salatu khayru min an-nawm=Prayer is better than sleep
Allahu akbar= Allah is greater than…2x
La ilaha illa Allah=There is no god but Allah…2x
New York City also broadcasts the Adhan on Fridays and during Ramadan. The broadcasts have to follow the city’s noise rules and not go over a certain number of decibels. There are more than 285 mosques today in New York City and 450,000 Muslims living there.

Amy Mek posted more on this on her X page.

🚨How Islam Just Conquered a Major U.S. City

The Islamic call to prayer – the Adhan – now blasts across Minneapolis five times a day on public loudspeakers. Even at 3:30 a.m.

This didn’t happen overnight.

It began in Dearborn (1981), spread to Hamtramck (2004), then Paterson, NJ (2020).

Minneapolis just made it law.

This is not “religious freedom.”

The Adhan publicly declares every other faith false. It is a proclamation of Islamic supremacy, now written into city ordinance.

Behind it: CAIR’s Jelani Hussain, Keith Ellison’s son, three Muslim city council members who rewrote the rules, and a left-wing mayor working alongside them.

From Little Mogadishu to City Hall – Minneapolis has been transformed.

This precedent will spread.

Town by town, city by city, the same pattern repeats until the Adhan echoes coast to coast.

This is civilization jihad – the Muslim Brotherhood’s blueprint to subvert America from within, using our own laws against us.

Left-wing politicians enable it.

Conservatives leaders stay silent.

It ends when Americans stand up.

Call your leaders.

Demand legislation that stops this noise jihad – before it’s too late.

August 3, 2026 – FBI agent admits he leveraged classified intel in $1 million crypto theft

Patrick Steven Yaroch (Credit: NBC4Washington)

A former FBI supervisor charged with stealing cryptocurrency during national security investigations later confessed his actions to colleagues and FBI officials, according to an affidavit.

Patrick Steven Yaroch, a former FBI supervisory special agent who worked in counterintelligence, was charged with interstate transportation of stolen property and receiving stolen property.

According to the affidavit, Yaroch had access to information about cryptocurrency wallets linked to a foreign adversary during FBI investigations. He allegedly used information stored in FBI systems to gain access to those wallets and transfer funds into cryptocurrency accounts he controlled.

Yaroch later told a Justice Department employee and FBI personnel that he began taking cryptocurrency in late 2024 or early 2025 and conducted roughly 10 to 12 transfers. According to the affidavit, he believed the value was less than $1 million. He also said he felt guilty and wanted to confess because the situation was “eating him up inside.”

He allegedly said he became frustrated during a counterintelligence investigation and decided to “take matters into his own hands” by accessing cryptocurrency tied to an adversarial nation.

The FBI began its investigation July 29 after Yaroch voluntarily reported his actions to FBI officials and submitted a self-report to the FBI’s Security Division. FBI agents later went to his home in Ashburn, Virginia, where he initially handed over a piece of paper containing information related to cryptocurrency wallet access before asking for it back.   (Read more: WUSA9, 8/3/2026)

August 3, 2026 – Migrant girl testifies she was sent to child sex traffickers after Xavier Becerra dismantled HHS vetting procedures

NEW TESTIMONY: “I was sexually abused because of Xavier Becerra.” Migrant girl sent to child traffickers after Becerra dismantled HHS vetting procedures. Forced to work 20 hour days—no pay, no water. Slept on ceramic floor surrounded by men. Sexually assaulted. “They kept me like a slave. Becerra failed to protect me.”

BREAKING: Becerra Migrant Child Abuse Camps

Whistleblower confirms Xavier Becerra dismantled vetting to speed up release of migrant children.

Kids sent to sex traffickers, abusive workplaces, fake relatives. “We were constantly getting information that was false, and we were supposed to go with it.”

Becerra ‘lost’ 319,000 children. 140,000 are still missing.

“Sometimes [the sponsor] didn’t know the name of the child.” “Children were sent to sponsors who provided a fraudulent form of identification.” “We still have no proof that the child went to that address.”

More “Becerra Tapes” to follow.

November 19, 2024 – DHS child sex trafficking hearing: One NGO raked in $600 million every 2-3 months to run the biggest child sex trafficking op in US history

Leaked recording of Xavier Becerra at HHS under Biden saying he was putting illegal migrant children “in an assembly line”

He clearly says the American people will be upset knowing how much Democrats were spending on children who shouldn’t even be here in America, and he’s instructing his staff to place them as quickly as they can without doing the proper checks

How is this guy not rotting in prison

“This is not the way you do an assembly line”

“We need to get discharges up — Every time we have to go to the Hill and explain why we’re spending so much money when most people are struggling to spend a little bit of money for their kids on a daily basis, we try to explain how we’re spending more than $1,000 a day for kids who may not even have the legal right to be here”

This is your reminder he was also called out in official testimony for placing children with sponsors using strip clubs as addresses

Arrest him

August 4, 2026 – Journalists aggressively defend Fauci, despite his diaries showing he repeatedly lied to the public

August 4, 2026 – A fake news leak to the media claims the U.S. military has used up nearly 80% of its interceptors for a key missile defense system

New: The US military has used up nearly 80% of its interceptors for a key missile defense system during Iran war as senior military commanders are warning the Pentagon’s munitions stockpile is “dangerously low,” multiple sources tell me, @jimsciutto & @halbritz.

Indicates US pre-war inventory of THAAD interceptors more depleted than previously known.

What kind of American are you, really?

Let’s assume what you say is true. You’ve now put a target on the heads of every American still in the Middle East.

You’ve emboldened our enemies to fire more to test the conclusions in your article.

Either way, you’ve increased the risk to your fellow countrymen.

How does that make you feel? Pretty good I bet.

It’s a win/win for you after all. You get to provoke Iran, then you get to cover the images of flag draped caskets coming back to the states of their attacks succeed.

All while blaming the military even though you were the one who helped provoke the attack.

I want America to see this message and react accordingly to you. To see what kind of “journalist” works for her enemies.

There is a special place in hell for your ilk.

I was at Camp David with President Trump and Secretary Hegseth. This literally never happened, and we told the Washington Post that repeatedly. This B.S. story was shopped to many outlets by someone clearly out to disparage the Secretary, for whatever reason. Unfortunately for them, the President loves the Secretary and thinks he’s doing a tremendous job. FAKE NEWS!

That’s true.

Each set of players wants a different outcome.

The issue is, all but Trump in some way want to stick with the old geopolitical paradigm that existed for the last 100+ years, the ‘Strategy of Tension’ paradigm that assures conflicts, wars, and proxy state shenanigans.

Neocons, IRGC and the faction currently in control of Israel’s government are all the same at the foundation – Forever War Machine proxies of the City of London worldwide criminal conglomerate.

As Trump continues to move the world closer to peace, these factions in the US, UK, NATO, EU, Israel, and Iran are all furiously trying to maintain the status quo and fight him off.

He is exhausting them.

August 4, 2026 – Senator Rand Paul posts his contempt resolution for Anthony Fauci

August 4, 2026 – Top American generals (and Hillary) met with a CCP spy front’s backchannel pushing China’s military agenda in Washington

For more than a decade, former chairmen of the Joint Chiefs, combatant commanders, Cabinet officials and members of Congress participated in a military dialogue organized with a Chinese group identified by congressional investigators as a front engaged in “intelligence collection” and “propaganda and perception management.” Some ended up on China’s payroll shortly after.

The Chinese Communist Party did not need to penetrate the Pentagon to gain access to America’s military leadership.

It built a private network around it.

For more than a decade, some of the most powerful retired officers in the United States participated in closed-door meetings with senior Chinese military leaders. The discussions covered Taiwan, the South China Sea, missile defense, cybersecurity and the future of relations between the two militaries.

The American participants included:

  • Gen. Peter Pace, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff
  • Adm. William “Bill” Owens, former Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff
  • Gen. John Abizaid, former commander of U.S. Central Command
  • Gen. Raymond Odierno, former Army Chief of Staff
  • Adm. Jonathan Greenert, former Chief of Naval Operations
  • Adm. Timothy Keating, former commander of U.S. Pacific Command
  • Gen. Ronald Fogleman, former Air Force Chief of Staff
  • Gen. Dennis Reimer, former Army Chief of Staff
  • Adm. Joseph Prueher, former commander of U.S. Pacific Command
  • Gen. John Keane, former Vice Chief of Staff of the Army
  • Gen. Walter Sharp, former commander of U.S. Forces Korea
  • Gen. Charles Jacoby, former commander of U.S. Northern Command
  • Gen. Charles Wilhelm, former commander of U.S. Southern Command

The program was called the Sanya Initiative.

Its glossy brochures framed it as a peaceful exchange between retired American and Chinese generals. Photographs showed senior officers chatting in Hawaiian shirts, touring military institutions and sitting across from Chinese commanders in ornate meeting rooms.

But the initiative was not organized with an ordinary veterans’ association.

It was funded by the China-United States Exchange Foundation, or CUSEF, and conducted with the China Association for International Friendly Contact, or CAIFC.

Congressional investigators have described CAIFC as “a front organization” for the People’s Liberation Army’s former General Political Department.

The U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission found that the group performed the dual roles of “intelligence collection” and “conducting propaganda and perception management campaigns.”

The commission specifically cited CAIFC’s work through the Sanya Initiative.

Put simply — America’s most senior former military leaders spent years collaborating through a program organized with a Chinese military front that U.S. government investigators linked to intelligence gathering and foreign influence operations.

(…)

From Retired Generals To The State Department

The first Sanya Initiative gathering took place in China in 2008.

CUSEF’s annual report named the original American delegation:

  • Bill Owens
  • Ronald Fogleman
  • Dennis Reimer
  • Joseph Prueher
  • Charles Wilhelm
  • John Keane

Their Chinese counterparts included former senior PLA commanders such as Xiong Guangkai, Li Qianyuan, Yu Zhenwu, Pei Huailiang, Zhao Guojun and Zhu Wenquan.

The following year, the initiative moved beyond meetings among retired officers.

CUSEF brought the combined American and Chinese delegations through Hawaii, Washington, D.C., and New York.

According to the foundation’s own brochure, they met:

  • Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
  • Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Adm. Mike Mullen
  • Assistant Secretary of State Kurt Campbell
  • Rep. Rick Larsen
  • Rep. Mark Kirk
  • Adm. Timothy Keating
  • Hawaii Gov. Linda Lingle

CUSEF published a photograph of the Chinese and American generals meeting Clinton in Washington.

Its report said the conversations ranged from nuclear proliferation and terrorism to “military educational exchange programs.”

This was no longer merely a discussion among retirees.

A program involving a Chinese military influence front had gained face-to-face access to the sitting secretary of state, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, members of Congress and senior officials responsible for U.S. policy in Asia. (Read more: NatalieWinters/Substack, 8/4/2026)  (Archive)

August 5, 2026 – Sister recounts horrifying moment her brother wept as he was being prepped to have his organs harvested

My God… this is horrific 💔

🚨 Sister Recounts Horrifying Moment her Brother Wept as he was being prepped to have his Organs Harvested

Donna Rhorer— “TJ was crying on the operating table, his eyes were tracking me and they told me it was just reflexes— then during the heart cath, he was thrashing and crying, grabbing the doctors hands to stop him”… as they were preparing to harvest his organs after he had been FALSELY declared brain-dead.

TJ, who survived was present in the audience crying uncontrollably…

The post shares Donna Rhorer’s testimony from an HHS event describing how her brother TJ Hoover was wheeled into surgery for organ harvesting in 2021 after a drug overdose and false brain death declaration, despite showing clear signs of life including crying, eye tracking, thrashing, and grabbing doctors’ hands.

TJ survived the incident after the procedure was halted; he attended the event in tears while Rhorer recounted how medical staff dismissed his responses as reflexes during preparation for donation through Network for Hope.

The account ties directly to HHS Secretary RFK Jr.’s same-day decertification of Network for Hope, following federal reviews of 351 cases that identified 103 concerning instances, including 73 patients with neurological signs incompatible with organ donation protocols.

They stopped the organ recovery procedure after TJ Hoover (Anthony Thomas “TJ” Hoover II) began showing clear signs of life—crying, eyes tracking, thrashing, and grabbing at the doctors’ hands—while he was being prepped on the operating table in October 2021.

Staff halted the process, he survived the ordeal, and he was later discharged from the hospital. He remains alive (as confirmed in reporting years afterward), though he has significant lasting neurological impairments and requires ongoing care. His sister Donna Rhorer has publicly recounted the events, and the case helped spur investigations and, more recently, the decertification of the organ procurement organization involved.(Grok)

As founder, Hospital Hostage Hotline, a FREE national hospital patient advocacy helpline and Covid patient rescue, this is my advice to protect yourself from Organ Donation aka Harvesting: Document
“I DO NOT CONSENT TO ORGAN DONATION” using a document called an Advanced Directive https://caringinfo.org/planning/advance-directives/

To remove your “I am an organ donor” on your Driver’s License, State Registry, National Directory etc:

August 5, 2026 – Twenty-five Democrat-run states: Foreign sweatshops and forced labor come before protecting hardworking Americans

Jamieson Greer (Credit: Ludovic Marin/AFP via Getty Images)

U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer accused Democratic-led states challenging President Donald Trump’s new tariffs of putting foreign sweatshops ahead of American workers and siding with China against U.S. efforts to eradicate forced labor from global supply chains.

“It’s official: Twenty-five Democrat-run states, spanning from Michigan to California, have made their priorities clear: foreign sweatshops come before protecting hardworking Americans,” Greer said in a statement obtained exclusively by Breitbart News.

The statement is the Trump administration’s most forceful response yet to lawsuits filed by 25 states seeking to overturn tariffs of 10 percent to 12.5 percent imposed last month on goods from more than 80 countries.

The states, led by New York, California and Illinois, filed their complaint Monday in the U.S. Court of International Trade. They argue the administration used forced labor as a pretext for rebuilding the global tariff system invalidated by the Supreme Court in February.

“After losing at the Supreme Court, the administration is once again trying to illegally raise taxes on families and businesses with a new round of tariffs,” New York Attorney General Letitia James said when the lawsuit was filed.

Greer rejected that characterization, saying the states are asking courts to give countries that tolerate forced labor in their supply chains a free pass. (Read more: Breitbart News, 8/5/2026)  (Archive)

BQQM… Russiagate just got its wiring ripped out into the open…

Crossfire Hurricane was dying on the evidence… Trump fires Comey May 9… seven days later the FBI opens “Oxferd Comma” directly into the sitting President… Baker and Priestap approve it… McCabe and Rosenstein know… ONE DAY LATER Rosenstein appoints Mueller… Oxferd Comma gets folded into Mueller and the operation survives for nearly two more years…

That’s the machine…

One investigation loses oxygen… the next predicate fires… a new investigation opens… the baton moves forward… the entire operation stays alive…

DECLAS is exposing the actual wiring now… names… dates… approvals… predicates… internal doubts… handoffs…

They spent years making America debate Russiagate… now we get to watch the machinery that sustained it come apart piece by piece…

WE CAUGHT THEM ALL…

Have you ever seen a politician, journalist, or deep-state operator post something that makes zero sense… or uses weirdly specific, out-of-place language?

This is how they signal to one another. And it grants them perfect plausible deniability.

May 9, 2017: Trump fires Comey.

May 16, 2017: FBI opens a full criminal probe into the sitting President as a possible Russian asset — code-named Oxferd Comma.

Six months later, Nov 2, 2017, while that secret investigation was still live and still targeting the man who removed him, Comey stupidly tweeted: — “Check the actual cover. I’m all about Oxford commas.” https://x.com/comey/status/926075654197731333?s=46

That phrasing closely resembles the EXACT code name of the investigation. Oxferd Comma, which they were investigating Trump, the sitting president, as a foreign. Holy Crap!

That tweet wasn’t about a book cover. It was a status check. A loyalty signal. A quiet high-five to the people involved trying to target the President who removed him.

He publicly claimed ownership of it — while it was still highly classified and when he had absolutely zero business knowing.

The files that dropped today just destroyed him.

FBI general counsel, the disgraced James Baker, opened “Oxferd Comma” criminal investigation into President Trump for allegedly acting as a Russian agent in his firing of James Comey.

Baker–who at the time worked for acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe–used Comey’s own “memos” allegedly documenting private conversation with the president between Jan 2017 and May 2017 as evidence against Trump.

Those same “memos”–which the DOJ IG later determined contained some classified information and slammed Comey for keeping them in his private residence–were leaked to the NYT by Comey BFF Dan Richman to prompt the appointment of Robert Mueller.

UPDATE 8/9/2026 – John Solomon includes previously declassified documents in chronological order to accompany the Oxferd Comma : 

The FBI opened a criminal probe specifically targeting Donald Trump in May 2017, alleging the newly elected president may have been acting as a Russian asset when he fired then-Director James Comey even though the bureau’s own evidence overwhelmingly showed at the time there was no collusion with the Kremlin.

Internal FBI memos newly declassified by the White House show the investigation – codenamed Oxferd Comma – was launched in the immediate aftermath of Comey’s May 9, 2017 firing and was predicated on an allegation that previously released records show the bureau’s own agents had mostly dismissed.

“The FBI is opening a full investigation based on an articulable factual basis that reasonably indicates that President Donald J. Trump may be or has been, wittingly or unwittingly, involved in activities for or on behalf of the Government of the Russian Federation which may constitute violations of federal criminal law or threats to the national security of the United States,” the electronic communication opening the probe on May 16, 2017 stated.

“The goal of the investigation is to determine if President Trump is or was directed by, controlled by, and/or coordinated activities with, the Russian Federation in a manner constituting a threat to the national security of the United States and/or a violation of federal criminal statutes,” it added. “In addition, this investigation will also seek to determine whether President Trump and others yet to be named obstructed and/or conspiracy to obstruct any associated FBI investigation.”

OXFERD COMMA – Opening EC

The memo, written by the FBI’s counterintelligence division and approved by then-FBI General Counsel James Baker and then-Assistant Director for Counterintelligence William Priestap, made clear the concerns about Russian influence and obstruction included Comey’s firing, in part because of the public explanations Trump gave for it.

“This alternative explanation can be reasonably read to imply that the FBI’s counterintelligence investigation was a factor in President Trump’s decision to terminate Comey,” the memo stated.

Both the Acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein were advised that the probe had been launched, the memos show.

OXFERD COMMA – FBI Informs DOJ

The FBI marked the investigation as a “sensitive investigative matter” and declared it was “the least intrusive method to address the serious national security risk posed by the activities alleged.”

But that decision proved anything but nonintrusive: it prompted the appointment of Special Counsel Robert Mueller by Rosenstein and a nearly two-year probe that hampered the start of the Trump presidency even though Mueller’s team, like the FBI before it, was unable to substantiate any collusion between Russia and Trump’s campaign during the 2016 election.

Mueller Report

A subsequent investigation by Special Counsel John Durham – released by the Biden Justice Department in 2023 – concluded there was no basis for the FBI to even open the original Crossfire Hurricane investigation into alleged Trump-Russia collusion.

Durham Report

The newly declassified Oxferd Comma memos show the case was closed on April 9, 2019, a few weeks after Mueller’s probe was sunset with a final report and no charges against Trump.

“The Special Counsel provided the Attorney General with a confidential report explaining his prosecution and declination decisions,” the closing memo noted.

OXFERD COMMA – Closing Communication

The memos are being released as federal prosecutors in Fort Pierce, Fla., reportedly investigate whether the FBI, DOJ and intelligence agencies engaged in an ongoing conspiracy to violate the civil rights of Trump and his followers through repeated criminal investigations that lacked evidence of wrongdoing.

It was well known that the FBI wanted to investigate Comey’s firing by Trump as an act of obstruction and that such concerns led to Mueller’s special counsel appointment.

Records would later show Comey was fired on the merits because the DOJ believed he mishandled the Hillary Clinton email investigation, and the department’s independent inspector general would later conclude that Comey “violated long-standing department practice and protocol” with his conduct in the Clinton case.

DOJ OIG Clinton Case

The new FBI memos, identified and declassified by the White House Government Transparency Task Force, reveal for the first time that the FBI predicated the obstruction case against Trump – and gave it a codename — on the concern the then-president may have been an asset of Russian leader Vladimir Putin.

But previously released FBI and DOJ records show the notion of Trump being a Russian asset had already been widely dismissed by agents and analysts working for months beforehand on the Crossfire Hurricane case that examined Russia-Trump collusion.

In fact, the lead agent in the Crossfire Hurricane case texted his colleague the same week that Oxferd Comma was opened suggesting he did not believe the allegations were substantiated.

“I hesitate in part because of my gut sense and concern there’s no big there there,” then-Deputy Assistant Director Pete Strzok wrote FBI special counsel Lisa Page on May 19, 2017.

Strzok Text Messages

Strzok’s text sentiments were confirmed by another key colleague working the case, Special Agent William Barnett, who would later tell the Justice Department that by early 2017 the FBI had mostly ruled out that the Trump campaign and its various players like retired Gen. Mike Flynn or advisers Carter Page and George Papadopoulos had colluded with the Kremlin, according to an FBI interview report of Barnett released in 2020.

“BARNETT still did not see any evidence of collusion between the TRUMP Campaign and the Russian Government,” the summary of the agent’s interview revealed.

FBI Barnett Interview

By the time the FBI tried to portray Trump as under Putin’s grip to justify the opening of the Oxferd Comma investigation, it had also learned that the original allegations of collusion came from Hillary Clinton’s campaign, were funneled to the FBI in a dossier written by a former British spy named Christopher Steele, who was paid by Clinton campaign’s law firm, and that the Steele dossier’s contents had mostly been uncorroborated or debunked and were part of a political dirty trick.

The first warning signs of those concerns actually emerged in late summer 2016 when CIA Director John Brennan personally briefed then-President Barack Obama and the FBI that U.S. intelligence had intercepted Clinton’s plan on or about July 26, 2016 to manufacture a scandal alleging Trump was conspiring with Russia to hijack the 2016 election.

“We’re getting additional insight into Russian activities from [REDACTED],” Brennan notes of his conversation with Obama stated. “CITE [summarizing] alleged approved by Hillary Clinton a proposal from one of her foreign policy advisers to vilify Donald Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference by the Russian security service.”

Brennan Notes

The intelligence made clear Clinton’s plan was to “smear” Trump, and it was shared directly with the FBI, including Comey at an Aug. 3, 2016 briefing, according to a classified annex to a DOJ report made public last year. That briefing occurred just four days after the Crossfire Hurricane probe was launched into alleged Russia collusion.

“On August 3, 2016, during a meeting at the White House, CIA Director Brennan briefed President Obama, Vice President Biden, DNI Clapper, FBI Director Comey, and other U.S. officials regarding Russian interference efforts as well as the T1 intelligence received concerning the referenced plan by the Clinton campaign,” the annex noted.

Durham Annex Released by Chairman Grassley

By early 2017, well before the launch of the Oxferd Comma probe, the FBI had evaluated every statement in the Steele dossier, concluding that some were provably false and most others were either internet rumor or unable to be corroborated, according to a spreadsheet that FBI analysts created.

Steele Spreadsheet

Some of the subsources and sources in the dossier distanced themselves from what Steele claimed they said. In fact, the FBI knew that Steele’s primary subsource, Igor Danchecnko, was suspected for years of being a Russian asset.

AG Letter to Chairman Graham

In an interview with the FBI in February 2017, Danchecnko claimed some of the information attributed to him in the Steele dossier was simply hearsay, according to FBI interview memos released back in 2020.

Danchenko Interviews

By early January 2017, the FBI also cleared another of the targets of the Russia collusion probe, then-National Security Adviser Mike Flynn. “No derogatory information was reported back to the FBI,” a Jan. 4, 2017 FBI memo closing down the Flynn investigation stated.

The FBI would invite Flynn into an interview after clearing him of wrongdoing, then charged him with false statements in that interview. Their conduct with Flynn concerned some of the agents in the case, including Priestap, the FBI’s counterintelligence chief.

“What’s our goal? Truth/Admission or to get him to lie, so we can prosecute him or get him fired?” Priestap wrote at the time.

Flynn Notes

In his interview with the FBI years later, Agent Barnett described the FBI’s investigation into Russia collusion as a misguided effort to “get Trump” that resembled a bad version of the popular game of Clue.

“BARNETT and others joked about how the investigation into collusion could be made into a game, which they referred to as ‘Collusion Clue,’” the interview summary of Barnett stated. “In the hypothetical game, investigators are able to choose any character conducting any activity, in any location, and pair this individual with another character and interpret it as evidence of collusion.”

(Timeline editor’s note: Although the date of the documents is May 16, 2017, we chose to include them in the timeline on the day they were declassified and released. That’s a general rule we adhere to throughout the timeline. Be sure and check our May 2017 tag timeline to see what else was happening at the time these documents were written.

August 5, 2026 – Michigan Senate candidate, Abdul El-Sayed, uses loaded military term ‘No Quarter’ in speech against Senate candidate Mike Rogers

(…) It’s become a regular staple in interviews and speeches by leftist politicians to call ICE agents “the Gestapo,” Brownshirts and worse. The predictable effect? A massive rise in threats against law enforcement.

They’ll tell you that what Michigan Democrat Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed said in a fiery — meaning incredibly obnoxious and vitriolic — speech Wednesday following his Tuesday night primary victory is just standard speechifying and not at all incendiary.

It was directed at his Republican opponent, former congressman Mike Rogers, and it sure sounds like a call to violence to me:

El-Sayed ended his remarks by publicly challenging Rogers to a series of debates but taunting that he believed his rival was too much of a “coward” to accept: “So, Mike I’m going to say it right here, I know you’re gonna say no because you are a coward – Five debates! Alright?” he said. “If you’re willing to stand with me and have a conversation, you and I both know that you will wither in front of your own crimes.”

He continued: “But I’m gonna make sure Michiganders know about them, because by the time we’re done, you are not going to have safe quarter from people holding you accountable to what you’ve done for them here in Michigan. We will send you back to Florida where you belong.”

No safe quarter? Are you kidding me? That certainly could be interpreted as an out-and-out call to violence.

August 5, 2026 – Muslims in America openly boast of their true plan: Sharia law for everyone

ALERT TEXAS – A WOMAN WHO LIVED UNDER SHARIA JUST DROPPED THE HARD TRUTH

Tonight in McKinney, she stood before the City Council and spoke from a place most Americans will never know.

She grew up in a Muslim country.

She grew up under Sharia.

And she warned us:

Americans are sadly mistaken when we look at this from our own Judeo-Christian frame of reference.

We cannot fathom a system like Islam.

There is no separation of church and state.

Muslims see themselves as a nation – the Ummah.

They feel more connected to a Muslim in Indonesia than to their own American neighbors.

A mosque is not just a place of prayer.

It can function as a military center, a weapons storage facility, a government office, a city hall.

That is where political candidates are found and funded.

The mosque is the nation, and the nation is the mosque.

Every activity exists to protect and advance Islam.

The Quran demands Sharia [Islamic Law].

Sharia is incompatible with our Constitution and the rule of law.

It is an all-encompassing system that dictates marriage, diet, government, criminal law, civil law, and education.

It is the path to Allah, and Islam teaches that it is the final religion.

Listen to her, America – SHE lived it.

She is not theorizing.

She is warning McKinney, Texas, and AMERICA — from experience.

I AM LITERALLY BLOWN AWAY AT WHAT WE ARE WITNESSING IN AMERICA – PATRIOTS ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY ARE RISING UP AS ONE AND SAYING NO – WE WILL NOT ACCEPT THE ISLAMIZATION OF OUR COMMUNITIES!

THIS IS SIMPLY AMAZING! THANK YOU, TEXAS! THIS IS WHY I FIGHT SO HARD!

August 5, 2026 – Trump judges are turbocharging deportation orders

(Credit: ICE/Flickr)

President Donald Trump’s deputies have tripled the monthly number of judicial deportation orders, enabling officials to exceed their recent deportation records during the next few months.

“They are plowing through these cases like a freaking snowplow in Utah snow,” said Andrew Arthur, a former immigration-court judge who now works with the Center for Immigration Studies. “They’ve dropped the backlog from nearly 4 million down to less than 3.5 million,” he added. 

The Justice Department’s immigration-court judges ordered the removal — or deportation — of 79,000 migrants in June, up from roughly 25,000 in December 2024 when President Joe Biden’s deputies were pulling migrants across U.S. legal barriers.

Migrants with deportation orders can be quickly arrested and deported because they have few legal options to stay in the United States. Under prior administrations, the deportation orders were routinely ignored by both migrants and deportation agencies, Arthur told Breitbart News.

The deportation orders were likely higher in July, and will likely be even higher in August, paving the way for even more deportations in early 2027.

Just 1.9 percent of the court cases provide migrants with some legal status, down from roughly 25 percent in Biden’s term.

The June data was shared by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC), which is sympathetic to migration and migrants. The site noted that the administration’s courts have a backlog of 3.2 million migrants after Biden’s migration boom.  (Read more: Breitbart News, 8/5/2026)  (Archive)

August 6, 2026 – The Senate finds Fauci in contempt of Congress; letters to prosecute him are sent to DOJ and U.S. attorney Jeanine Pirro

Every step was designed to inflict maximum harm:
• Splicing HIV into a coronavirus.
• Blocking access to hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin.
• Removing NAC from Amazon and supermarket shelves.
• No early treatment.
• Ventilators that killed 90% of patients.
• Seeding nursing homes with Covid+ patients.
• Blanket Do-Not-Resuscitate orders for the disabled.
• “15 days to flatten the curve” that slowed the rate of natural immunity.
• Closing schools for two years.
• Masks that reduced oxygen.
• Shutting down gyms.
• Keeping liquor stores open.
• Closing hiking trails and parks thus preventing people from getting vitamin D.
• Remdesivir and Paxlovid that are expensive, useless, and deadly.
• The most toxic and deadly vaccines in history on a new platform that will never work.
• Billions of dollars spent on propaganda to convince people to accept every step of this nefarious plan.
• Firings, censorship, and blacklisting of critical thinkers.

Covid is a world war, launched by the ruling class, against humanity.

August 6, 2026 – More than 600,000 voter files ripped off Arizona site in 2020 by hacker, but DOJ didn’t prosecute

Arizona’s largest county suffered a significant breach of its election data in the days before the 2020 presidential election when a self-described hacker foiled security and obtained 633,000 voter registration files but the Biden Justice Department and local prosecutors declined to bring charges even after the FBI got the suspect to confess, according to declassified documents made public Thursday by the White House.

The scraping of Maricopa County’s voter registration files was the most flagged security incident in a cyberintrusion log kept by U.S. spy agencies in the days around the Nov. 3, 2020 election, and it caused an extensive FBI investigation that led agents to a home in Fountain Hills, Ariz., the memos show.

The man the FBI confronted admitted he wrote a computer script to exploit the county voter systems security and scraped the files, which included 930 with “sensitive voter information like domestic violence victims, judges and law enforcement officers,” according to the FBI case files declassified and made public by President Donald Trump’s White House Government Transparency Task Force.

FBI Director Kash Patel sent a letter to that task force this week stating the bureau spent “significant resources” but could not get the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Phoenix, the Arizona Attorney General’s Office, the Maricopa County Arizona Attorney’s Office or the Pinal County, Arizona Attorney’s Office to bring charges despite an admission from the alleged hacker.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office declined to prosecute the alleged hacker on July 12, 2021, under the Biden Administration, according to the FBI. The newly released memos do not state when the other prosecutorial agencies made similar decisions not to bring charges,  but the full case was officially closed in 2023.

Just one day before the Nov. 3 election, the Maricopa County Recorder’s Office submitted a tip through the Arizona Counterterrorism Intelligence Center that there had been “an attempt to scrape voter registration information,” according to one FBI summary.

According to that memo, an unidentified intruder gained access to voter registration data on the recorder’s website by using a “Powershell script” that exploited a weakness in security. More than 633,000 voter records were exfiltrated between Oct. 21, 2020, and Nov. 2, 2020, the memos state.

 According to Microsoft, “a PowerShell script is a plain text file saved with a .ps1 extension that contains a sequence of commands (called cmdlets), variables, and logic to automate tasks.”

Voter registration files do not include ballots, and there’s no evidence votes were changed in the incident, But the U.S. intelligence community has been warning since 2020 that if bad actors gained access to such files they could hamper the ability of voters to cast ballots in the future. China has obtained about 220 million such files, documents released last month by President Donald Trump show.

The Maricopa County incident appeared frequently in the Intelligence Community’s cyber instruction logs in the days leading up to and on the day of the presidential election. Those logs were also made public, with redactions for sensitive information, by the White House. They show that by 7:15 AM on Election Day, the Intelligence Community knew that the Maricopa intrusion had scooped up non-public information.

At the time, Maricopa County election officials said that the suspect accessed the website where people could register to vote, but could not pierce the server where the county’s voter registration files are actually stored. The county also said that the only information obtained on individual voters were voter registration numbers, but this is contradicted by the FBI, which identified more than 900 voter records that contained private information, like domestic violence victim status.

The FBI traced the intrusion to a Fountain Hills, Ariz., home and agents were dispatched several days after the election to interview the subject and execute a search warrant on the premises.

The man was forthcoming, telling federal agents exactly how he discovered the vulnerability in the Maricopa County Recorder’s website and how he wrote a computer script to exploit it, according to an FD-302 memorializing the interview. An FD-302 is the official FBI form used by special agents to write down a summary of an interview with a witness, suspect, or informant.

The suspect, who described himself as a “hacker or tinkerer,” told the agents that he first discovered the vulnerabilities in Maricopa’s website about two months earlier, in September 2020. “He noticed his voter ID appeared in the URL” after entering his own voter information and “tested the vulnerability by entering several seven-digit numbers into the URL path resulting in access to different voter registration information,” the agents wrote.

The man said that after discovering the vulnerability, he developed a “PowerShell script” that he ran from the beginning of October until around November 2, 2020, the day before the election. At that point, Maricopa County had detected the intrusions and “fixed their firewall,” according to the FBI memo.

The man estimated he obtained between 1 million and 2 million voter files.

The FBI agents noted that the suspect eventually “realized the gravity of the situation and became scared,” knowing that “he would get a visit from [law enforcement].” Though he considered telling the media about his actions, he decided to keep his breach a secret and scrubbed his hard drives and deleted files from his Google Cloud, according to the FBI-302.

The same day of the interview, FBI agents executed a search warrant on the suspect’s home. The search was publicly reported by Forbes in December 2020. The Arizona Daily Independent also reported that a home was targeted by FBI agents seeking evidence of a cyberattack on a then-unnamed organization.

The agents reportedly seized eight hard drives, three computers, and a bag of USB sticks.

Forbes reported that a man who lived at the address was previously investigated by police in 2011 when he lived in Wisconsin. While working as the IT administrator for the City of Ashland, local police questioned him over a series of spoof emails sent out ahead of a local election.

After both federal and state prosecutorial agencies declined to bring charges using the FBI’s findings, the investigative team requested that the bureau close the case in May 2023, nearly three years after the intrusions were first detected, an additional FBI memo shows. The agents cited the declinations to justify closing the file.

August 6, 2026 – Joe Rogan explains why radical DSA policies are doomed to fail: ‘You can’t just steal people’s money’ (Video)

Joe Rogan exposes the fatal flaw behind the Democratic Socialist platform to his 21 million listeners.

Their big government playbook always ends in the exact same outcome.

ROGAN: “And they think that this idea of Democratic socialism is a really good idea because there are some examples of socialist policies that do work, like the fire department, and there’s a bunch of stuff that makes sense.”

“But the PROBLEM with enforcing any of this stuff that they don’t understand is it always comes down to power.”

“You have to have massive authority and usually guns, because you can’t just steal people’s money.”

“They’re not going to let you.”

“They’re not going to let you just come in and decide, hey, we just devised a new tax where everybody who makes more than $500,000 a year… everything over that, you have to give 100% to the state.”

h/t The Gateway Pundit, 8/6/2026

GREG GUTFELD just said it PERFECTLY:

“It reveals an essential truth about socialism…it cannot exist unless you enforce it aggressively, which means it is antithetical to human nature! If this stuff is so INNATE, WHY do you have to FORCE it down our throats?!”

“CAPITALISM doesn’t need a movement. There’s no Republican capitalist society. Socialism needs a movement because they need to FORCE it!”

“Capitalism — flaws and all — most resembles human behavior, which is where we are, we live by incentives and disincentives.”

“We like to trade by and sell goods. We need that. We’ll give you this. That’s how it works.”

“Socialism has to aggressively tell you that this is superior because you won’t buy it!”

August 6, 2026 – Trump signs two executive orders disqualifying many illegals from receiving birthright citizenship

BREAKING: President Trump just signed two MAJOR executive orders DISQUALIFYING large amount of illegals from receiving birthright citizenship, using the Supreme Court’s own ruling

“That includes, for example, alien enemies of the United States, members of foreign terrorist organizations and large categories of people who lobby and act on behalf of foreign governments,” per Stephen Miller

“This ensures that large numbers of people who wrongly would be getting birthright citizenship will NO LONGER be eligible for those benefits.”

POTUS also put MASSIVE restrictions on birthright citizenship.

CONTINUING TO PROTECT THE MEANING AND VALUE OF AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered:

Section 1.  Purpose.  The privilege of United States citizenship remains a priceless and profound gift.  Since my first day in office, my Administration has guarded against the risks posed by malign foreign actors who attempt to swindle American citizens by taking advantage of the generosity of our Nation.

On June 30, 2026, the Supreme Court decided in Trump v. Barbara, 609 U.S. ___, 146 S. Ct. 2438, 2449 (2026), that the Citizenship Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution extends the privilege of citizenship to children born to parents in the United States “for whom no extraterritorial fiction applie[s].”  This order identifies, non-exhaustively, and prescribes action concerning certain categories of children of aliens who do not fall within the rule of birthright citizenship as announced by the Supreme Court.

Sec. 2.  Policy.  It is the policy of the United States that no executive department or agency shall issue documents recognizing United States citizenship to, or accept documents issued by State, local, or other governments or authorities purporting to recognize United States citizenship regarding, persons when neither parent of that person is a citizen and any of the following applies:

(a)  either parent of that person is an alien enemy, defined to include any member of a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization under 8 U.S.C. 1189 or Specially Designated Global Terrorist, consistent with the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq., and Executive Order 13224 of September 23, 2001 (Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism), as amended;

(b)  either parent of that person is a foreign government employee, defined to include:

(i)    ambassadors;

(ii)   persons employed by a foreign embassy or consulate who are nationals of that foreign country;

(iii)  persons employed by a foreign government in an official capacity; and

(iv)   persons employed by an international organization that possess international-organization immunity;

(c)  either parent of that person engaged in a commercial transaction to purchase or access birthright citizenship for the person, or engaged in fraudulent activity to obtain citizenship, to include:

(i)   when the parent(s) of the person engage in a commercial transaction to ensure that the person’s mother is present in the United States, or a territory of the United States, to give birth; or

(ii)  when the parent(s) engage in a commercial transaction with a surrogate present in the United States, or a territory of the United States, to give birth;

(d)  the person is born in a territory or territorial waters of the United States where citizenship is not conferred by Federal statute.

Sec. 3.  Enforcement.  (a)  The Secretary of State, the Attorney General, the Secretary of Homeland Security, and the Commissioner of Social Security shall take all appropriate measures to ensure that the regulations and policies of their respective departments and agencies are consistent with this order, and that no officers, employees, or agents of their respective departments and agencies act, or forbear from acting, in any manner inconsistent with this order.

(b)  The heads of all executive departments and agencies shall issue public guidance within 30 days of the date of this order regarding this order’s implementation with respect to their operations and activities.

Sec. 4.  Severability.  If any provision of this order, or the application of any provision to any individual or circumstance, is held to be invalid, the remainder of this order and the application of its other provisions to any other individuals or circumstances shall not be affected thereby.

Sec. 5.  General Provisions.  (a)  Nothing in this order shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:

(i)   the authority granted by law to an executive department or agency, or the head thereof; or

(ii)  the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.

(b)  This order shall be implemented consistent with applicable law and subject to the availability of appropriations.

(c)  This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.

(d)  The costs for publication of this order shall be borne by the Department of Justice.

THE WHITE HOUSE,

August 6, 2026 – Today is the 15th anniversary of Extortion 17 – At the ramp ceremony, a Muslim iman was allowed to pray over their caskets and “damned the fallen American warriors as infidels”

Thursday, August 6, 2026, marks the 15th anniversary of Extortion 17—the single greatest loss of American military life in one incident during the entire Afghanistan War. On that dark night in 2011, a CH-47 Chinook helicopter, call sign Extortion 17, was shot down in Afghanistan’s Tangi Valley. All 30 Americans aboard perished, along with a military working dog.

Among the dead were 17 Navy SEALs (including members of SEAL Team Six/DEVGRU’s Gold Squadron), Naval Special Warfare support personnel, Army crew, and Air Force special tactics airmen. It remains the deadliest day in the history of Naval Special Warfare.

(…)

The Vaughns and others have also pointed to the public outing of SEAL Team 6 after the bin Laden raid roughly 90 days earlier. Media leaks to outlets including the New York Times and Washington Post, followed by then-Vice President Joe Biden’s public acknowledgment of the SEALs’ role at a high-profile event, violated long-standing special operations protocol for protecting the identities of those who carry out high-value missions.

A bullseye was placed on the backs of SEAL Team 6. Immediately afterward, Aaron Vaughn called his mother. Karen Vaughn has recounted that his tone was extremely serious: he told her to wipe her social media clean of any reference to him or his buddies because there was chatter and all of their lives—including hers—were possibly in danger. Ninety-three days later, he and his teammates were dead. The Vaughns and others have described this sequence as creating the conditions for payback.

Adding further insult, at the ramp ceremony at Bagram Air Base as the flag-draped caskets of the fallen prepared for their final flight home, a Muslim imam was allowed to offer a prayer. When the Vaughns obtained a translation of his Arabic words, it included language declaring that “the companions of the fire, the sinners and the infidels who are fodder for hell fire are not equal with the companions of heaven. The companions of heaven, Muslims are the winners.” The prayer damned the fallen American warriors as infidels destined for hellfire while proclaiming Muslims the winners and mocking the God of Moses. Billy Vaughn has called it a desecration of the bodies of American heroes by their own military’s decision to permit it.

These concerns center on a mission that was not required as framed, rules that constrained the ability of supporting aircraft to neutralize known threats, the choice of aircraft and force package, the public exposure of SEAL Team 6 that placed a target on their backs, an investigation that left families with more questions than answers, and the final indignity of the prayer over their caskets. Fifteen years later, the single largest loss of American life in the Afghanistan War still carries unresolved issues about how risk was managed and whether political constraints and decisions cost American lives.

August 6, 2026 – Blue state AGs are jacking up your energy bill – Nothing is out of bounds if it means sticking it to Trump, even raising energy costs

Credit: Dailywire graphic)

When President Trump took office last year, he rightfully declared an energy emergency and ushered in orders to accelerate domestic production. The Biden administration had used the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to hamstring American energy companies with burdensome regulations disguised as “fighting climate change.”  These actions stifled new energy initiatives, contributing to a nationwide rise in electricity rates. Now, with its new Trump-appointed members, FERC has instituted major reforms to cut red tape and hasten energy dominance.

One such reform, voted 5-to-0 by the Commissioners, proposes to reform the “Blanket Program,” streamlining the approval process for infrastructure projects that improve existing systems. For example, if a company already received FERC approval for a natural gas storage facility and wants to build a second, it is common sense that most of the paper-pushing, box-checking bureaucracy was well established the first time. The Blanket Program expedites the process for “brownfield” project sites that are already in use.

But here come the blue states, hellbent on stopping anything Trump. Fifteen Democratic Attorneys General (AG), led by Washington’s AG Nick Brown and Massachusetts AG Andrea Campbell, have petitioned FERC to keep permitting slow, tangled, and expensive, calling the new FERC reform a threat to “ratepayers.” That’s the pot calling the kettle black. The other state AGs who are joining this letter — California, New York, Maryland, Connecticut, Illinois, Maine, Oregon, Colorado, Arizona, Michigan, Minnesota, Vermont, and the want-to-be-state Washington, D.C. — have no credibility on this topic. FERC should recognize that they represent a who’s-who of the nation’s highest electricity prices. Just ask their own ratepayers how “protection” is working out for them.

Since 2021, electricity prices in Washington have risen 32.8%, and in neighboring Oregon, 37.6%. Massachusetts leads New England in price increases, up 38.7% over five years, with neighboring states Connecticut up 29.4% and Maine up a stunning 65.3%.  To lower energy costs, these states should be begging FERC to expedite the infrastructure they need to heat homes and generate electricity.    

D.C. residents have seen their electric bills climb 73.7% since 2020. California, home to some of the priciest power in the country, is up 59.1%. Maryland’s AG, Anthony Brown, wants to protect ratepayers from “unjustified” cost increases, even as his own state has seen electricity prices rise nearly 50%. Colorado is up 28.2%, and even Arizona (not exactly a coastal blue-state stronghold) is up 24.9%. Michigan and Minnesota round out the list, both up over 20%, both states that mandated 100% “clean energy” deadlines their grids can’t and won’t actually meet. Now their Attorneys General want to make sure the natural gas infrastructure that could steady those prices gets buried.

New York’s AG Letitia James, a person who has never missed an opportunity to use her office to attack President Trump, is defending red tape on gas pipelines while New Yorkers eat a 43.7% rate hike. New York State, home to one of the world’s largest natural gas deposits(though asinine green mandates forbid developing it), continues to push the green agenda. Somewhere in NY, Governor Kathy Hochul is nodding along, hoping the media continues to ignore her delay in implementing her celebrated energy-crushing climate initiatives until after her November election. The latest poll has the incumbent leading only by four points, answering the age-old question: when is a climate crisis not a climate crisis? When it hurts re-election.

This is the same script the climate fringe has run for years: block energy initiatives like new pipeline developments, mandate expensive wind and solar, then act shocked when the bill triples. Europe has been doing this for nearly 30 years, and they pay three to four times as much as Americans for electricity. One would think our elected leaders would learn a lesson here, but they have not.

One blue state whose Attorney General did not join this effort is New Mexico. During the same period, its electricity prices increased by only 11%. Home to part of the natural gas mega site, the Permian Basin, even its AG knows who butters the state’s bread. (Read more: Dailywire, 8/6/2026)  (Archive)

August 6, 2026 – Senate investigators say it has obtained copy of the iPhone Fauci used during the pandemic

This is Yuge… we have Fauci’s COVID era government iPhone backup…

Think bigger than Fauci… this can become a digital map of the entire COVID command structure…

Who talked to whom… what they knew… when they knew it… NIH, NIAID, HHS, scientists, universities, grants, contractors and the people shaping the public narrative…

Cross-reference the phone against emails, diaries, testimony and money trails and the network begins drawing itself…

Now Florida, Alabama, Louisiana and Oklahoma are investigating at the state level… where “Biden’s” federal pardon carries no protection against state charges…

The phone maps the network… the states create the exposure… this could blow the COVID accountability story wide open…

August 7, 2026 – A federal judge denies the Southern Poverty Law Center’s bid to toss the criminal indictment on vindictive prosecution

Judge Emily C. Marks (Credit: public domain)

A federal judge on Friday denied the Southern Poverty Law Center’s bid to toss the criminal indictment on vindictive prosecution.

In May, the SPLC filed a motion arguing vindictive prosecution.

The hate group argued that the charges brought against them were a result of targeting by the DOJ and violated the organization’s right to due process.

US District Judge Emily Marks, a Trump appointee of the US District Court for the Middle District of Alabama, said it is just speculation that President Trump and Justice Department officials had a role in the criminal indictment.

“The SPLC has failed to offer some evidence tending to show animus on the part of the prosecutors involved in bringing this case and that such animus resulted in the prosecution, the showing required for discovery. Because it cannot satisfy that standard, it necessarily fails to satisfy the higher standard that would entitle it to dismissal of the indictment. Accordingly, the SPLC’s motion is due to be denied,” the judge wrote in a 36-page opinion reviewed by The Gateway Pundit. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 8/7/2026) (Archive)

August 7, 2026 – The Air Force One leaker has been identified; Pentagon revokes access to classified information for Biden-era Air Force Secretary

The Department of War on Friday revoked former Secretary of the Air Force Frank Kendall’s eligibility for access to classified intel after he leaked classified information about Air Force One to the media.

The Biden-era Air Force Secretary leaked sensitive information about President Trump’s Qatari-gifted Air Force One jet to The New York Times.

Full statement from Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell:

Effective immediately, the Department of War has REVOKED former Secretary of the Air Force Frank Kendall’s eligibility for access to classified information and his ability to hold any sensitive position.

This action follows his unauthorized disclosure of classified information regarding Air Force One’s capabilities to a media outlet.

Safeguarding classified information is a non-negotiable duty. Those who violate that trust forfeit the privilege of access and any role requiring it.

August 8, 2026 – “We’re here to destroy the white race”: Democratic Socialist of America hero, Hasan Piker, declares war on West

Marxist streamer Hasan Piker has emerged as an increasingly visible, if unofficial, spokesman for the Democratic Socialists of America’s rapidly expanding political action network. He campaigned for Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed and Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Francesca Hong while cultivating close ties with socialist New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

From an electoral-risk perspective, Piker is becoming a liability for Democrats. His far-left, anti-American rhetoric provides Republicans with what we called “a gift” last week. Even Hillary Clinton warned on Friday that the GOP’s “anti-communist messaging is very effective.”

The Democratic Party’s failure to formally denounce Piker and distance itself from his agenda…

Hasan Piker says he wants to FLOOD illegals into the United States so they can “f*ck your sisters and daughters” to “destroy the white race”

I am demanding the Democratic Party voice PUBLICLY that they denounce Hasan Piker’s comments.

If they don’t, let this post be proof that they support every single thing he has ever said.

“We want more immigrants to come into your countries and then they’re gonna f*ck your sisters and then your daughters.”

“We’re here to destroy the White race, b*tch.”

Piker’s close proximity to DSA-aligned candidates, combined with anti-American rhetoric and revolutionary Marxism that is hostile to America’s political and capitalist system, has federal investigators examining the possibility that revolutionary activity is being supported by foreign subversion networks:

Piker is becoming such a liability for America’s left that a potential inflection point may have been reached.

JNS reports that the University of Washington has decided to cancel a scheduled Piker event. This taxpayer-funded institution offers extensive coursework shaped by Marxist, feminist, and other far-left frameworks while placing limited emphasis on capitalism. If even one of America’s most progressive universities now views Piker as a liability, it may signal the beginning of a broader retreat from America-hating communists who spread hateful and violent rhetoric among America’s youth.

“I’m happy that the University of Washington, for literally the first time ever, has made the correct decision to not have an America-hating communist spread his hatred and terrible ideology to young people at our taxpayer-funded universities,” Travis Couture, a Republican state representative, told JNS.

“Obviously universities are a place for First Amendment free speech, but someone who said that America deserves 9/11 and that capitalist blood should spill in the street should not be someone we are promoting with our tax dollars,” Couture said.

“Every elected official and taxpayer-funded organization should be asked to condemn socialism, communism and Democratic Socialists of America people like Hasan Piker,” Couture told JNS. “If they will not condemn those people, actions and extreme ideology, then they should be disqualified from serving the people of Washington state.”

The cancellation suggests that his political toxicity may now outweigh his usefulness in mobilizing socialist and Marxist candidates who campaign on positions that denounce America and capitalism and are deeply unpopular with mainstream voters. (Zero Hedge, 8/8/2026)  (Archive)

August 8, 2026 – Undercover video shows non-U.S. citizens from Iran allowed to vote in Michigan primary without ID

Undercover Video Shows Non-U.S. Citizens from Iran Allowed to Vote in Michigan Primary Without ID

The Non-Citizens Allowed to Vote Are Sex Offenders, on DHS’s “Worst of the Worst” List, and Previously Arrested by ICE

Iranian Subject Confirms With OMG He Voted in the Last Three Elections and Intends to Vote on Primary Day

“All I know is you’re [Afshin Masheli] registered to vote here. The rest of the information is not important to me.”

“Yes, this is the right place. You [Fazlollah Haritash] are registered to vote here.”

OMG’s undercover journalists investigated two Michigan registered voters identified as non-U.S. citizens in federal court and DHS records. One of them, Afshin Masheli, is identified in federal court records as an Iranian national and non-U.S. citizen. DHS has previously featured Masheli on its publicly released “Worst of the Worst” list, which highlights noncitizens arrested by ICE for serious criminal offenses. According to United States District Court records, Masheli is a registered sex offender.

OMG proved that at Masheli’s assigned polling location, election workers confirmed a voter registration under his name appeared in the poll book and stated that a registered voter listed there could cast a ballot. Our undercover journalist spoke to Afshin Masheli himself and Masheli said he planned to vote later that day.

Our investigation also identified another registered voter, Fazlollah Haritash, whose federal records identify him as a non-U.S. citizen. Public court records and Michigan’s public sex offender registry showing the criminal convictions, and the registry lists him as incarcerated. At the polling location associated with Fazlollah Haritash’s voter registration, an election worker confirmed that a voter registration under his name appeared on Michigan’s voter rolls.

On July 6, 2026, Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon sent a letter to Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson stating that knowingly retaining noncitizens on Michigan’s statewide voter registration list, issuing ballots to them, and counting those ballots violate Section 12(2)(B) of the National Voter Registration Act. The letter urged the state to ensure its voter rolls comply with federal law.

Michigan law limits voting to eligible U.S. citizens. This investigation should make you question how U.S. voter registration records are maintained and whether individuals identified in federal records as non-U.S. citizens remain registered to vote.

O’Keefe Media Group has contacted the Michigan Secretary of State, the Department of Homeland Security, ICE, and the Department of Justice for comment and will update this report with any responses.

EXCLUSIVE: Stunning Report — 6 Non-Citizens on DHS “Worst of the Worst Criminal Aliens” List Are Registered Voters in Michigan — 2 Voted in Multiple Elections

Excerpt from Gateway Pundit article:

Meet AFSHIN MASHELI – A green card holder and rapist from Iran. Afshin is on the DHS “Worst of the Worst” List.

He was arrested on Feb. 25, 2003, for First Degree Criminal Sexual Assault and was sentenced to 2 1/2 years to 50 years, then resentenced to 5 1/2 to 25 years. He was released from jail, but there is no record of when. Afshin Masheli was arrested again on June 25, 2025, by ICE while living at 8837 Gary St, Dearborn, the same address where he is registered to vote in Michigan.

(Timeline editor’s note: Masheli’s race is listed as being White)

Not only is Afshin illegally registered to vote, but he is also a regular voter. According to CMV (Check My Vote), which pulls records directly from the monthly Michigan Secretary of State’s QVF (Qualified Voter File), he has voted in at least 3 federal elections in Michigan. Ashfin Masheli registered to vote in 2013. He voted in person in 2016, by absentee ballot in 2020, and again in the 2024 general election. Green card holders are NOT US citizens, and it’s against the law for anyone other than a US citizen to vote in our elections. It’s a felony for a non- citizen to vote in a federal election.

Masheli is a native and citizen of Iran who was admitted to the United States on December 19, 1991, in Chicago, Illinois, on a visitor’s visa, with authorization to remain until June 19, 1992. On May 24, 1993, he was convicted of first-degree retail fraud in the 20th Circuit Court in Grand Haven, Michigan. On October 29, 1993, Afshin Masheli was granted advance parole to travel to Mexico to complete his application for adjustment of status to lawful permanent resident status. On November 12, 1993, he was paroled into the United States at El Paso, Texas, and on July 26, 1995, Masheli became a lawful permanent resident.

On February 25, 2003, Afshin Masheli “was convicted in the 17th Circuit Court in Grand Rapids, Michigan for the offense of Criminal Sexual Conduct – 1st Degree (Personal Injury), as well as for the offense of “Criminal Sexual Conduct – 3rd Degree.” Masheli received prison sentences of “between 5 years and 6 months to 50 years” and “between 3 years to 15 years.”

As a result of the convictions, the Iranian citizen was charged with removability under section 237(a)(2)(A)(iii) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). On May 25, 2005, an immigration judge in the Detroit Immigration Court denied his applications for relief and ordered him removed to Iran. Masheli’s subsequent appeal was denied on July 3, 2007, resulting in a final order of removal to Iran.

According to public records, Ashfin’s deportation has been stalled for years, and the court ordered his release in January 2026 because Iran has long refused to cooperate with the repatriation of its nationals, especially those with criminal convictions.

Masheli’s case reveals a well-documented, long-standing problem that predates recent tensions with Iran, which rarely issues travel documents or accepts deportees from the United States, particularly convicted felons.

The court (Magistrate Judge Phillip J. Green) applied the Supreme Court’s Zadvydas v. Davis ruling, which says that once a final removal order has been in place for 6 months and there is “good reason to believe” removal is not reasonably foreseeable, the person must generally be released from detention. The judge found that Iran’s historical non-cooperation made removal unlikely in the foreseeable future.

August 09, 2026 – Texas Children’s Hospital nurse and whistleblower Vanessa Sivadge speaks about Medicaid fraud linked to gender affirming treatment for minors

Texas Children’s Hospital Nurse Vanessa Sivadge Speaks For The First Time Since Historic $10 Million Settlement After Blowing The Whistle on Alleged Medicaid Fraud Linked to “Gender-Affirming” Treatments on Minors @V_Sivadge was the principal government witness in the False Claims Act case that forced a landmark $10 million settlement.

In this exclusive, first interview, Sivadge details the alleged multi-layered Medicaid fraud used to fund gender-affirming treatments on minors, details the FBI showing up to her home under the Biden DOJ, and reacts to the hospital’s agreement to open America’s first hospital-funded detransition clinic.

(Your subscriptions @C__Herridge make my independent journalism possible.)

Vanessa’s attorney Marcella Burke calls it a “watershed” settlement that sets a national precedent. TX AG Ken Paxton: “This settlement sends an unmistakable message: if you put radical ideology over children’s health, my office will go after you. We will continue to lead the way in stopping the far-left’s radical gender agenda.”

Justice Department Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward: “The Department of Justice is committed to protecting America’s children. Today’s resolution furthers that commitment and puts providers of so-called ‘gender affirming care’ on notice that this Department will vigorously enforce federal law where children are put at risk.”

Texas Children’s Hospital: “Last week we finalized a settlement agreement with the Texas Attorney General and the U.S. Department of Justice bringing a close to this chapter to focus our resources on life-saving care and discoveries. We are grateful for and proud of our renowned physicians and nurses whose clinical excellence makes us the nation’s leading pediatric and women’s health system. Our focus remains on creating a healthier future for children and women across Texas and the world.”

02:05 Sivadge: “I was the government witness…In this this false claims act case against TX Children’s Hospital”
02:58 How alleged fraud with taxpayer dollars worked 03:30 Sivadge: “…a 15 year old girl had a testosterone deficiency and a boy had an estrogen deficiency…”
04:30 Vindicated: “I didn’t know if I would end up in jail …our faith carried us through..”
05:48 Lawyer Marcella Burke: “Monumental settlement,” detransitioners clinic, doctors fired 07:22 Sivadge: “…I would be facing prison under a Kamala Harris presidency.”
07:44 Sivadge: “FBI came to my door and they told me that if I did not collaborate with them, that they could not protect me and that my safety and my career were at risk.”
10:25 Lawyer: Texas Children’s claimed they were not performing gender affirming services
11:24 Sivadge: “I think the biggest risk of all is that children, their reproductive sexual health is utterly destroyed.”
12:10 What was driving this? Parents, Kids, Doctors…
13:10 Alleged fraud with Medicaid Dollars, low income families “suicide or treatment, suicide or surgery”
14:48 In the settlement, does Texas Children’s Hospital admit fault?
15:50 Did any doctors lose their licenses?
16:14 Sivadge: I was fired after going to journalist @christopherrufo17:12 Cost of coming forward
17:57 Sivadge: “The institution that once sanctioned the harm of these kids is now reversing course and offering them help.”
18:55 Sivadge: “I think this is the type of story only God can write…”
19:29 Sivadge: “I’m a nurse and I believe in biological truth…this is me trusting the science.
19:57 Burke: “It is setting a precedent within the Department of Justice as they move to settle these cases across the country.”

Texas Children’s Hospital nurse Vanessa Sivadge deserved justice. I remember the video of the FBI showing up at her door. It was horrific! I didn’t know what country I was living in.

AG Merrick Garland’s DOJ was the most lawless admin in history. This pattern—weaponizing federal law enforcement against parents and medical professionals who challenged the “official” view on gender ideology—was pure authoritarianism.

Garland directed the FBI to investigate parents who spoke out at school board meetings against the LGBT curriculum as “domestic terrorists.” And targeted Sivadge after she blew the whistle on Medicaid fraud connected to “gender-affirming” care for adolescents.

The DOJ’s clear objective was to chill dissent and FORCE acceptance of medicalized gender transitions for minors.

Both situations were a textbook ABUSE OF POWER. Democrats and their media sycophants still refuse to acknowledge it.

August 10, 2026 – Code Pink founder Medea Benjamin’s California charity, Arc of Justice, is ordered to cease operations

Medea Benjamin and Neville Roy Singham (Credit: (@medeabenjamin/X)/Getty Images)

Arc of Justice—the California-based charity established by Code Pink cofounder Medea Benjamin to dole out millions to Code Pink and other far left activist groups—was recently ordered by the state’s attorney general to cease all operations after failing to file taxes for three consecutive years and account for more than $51 million in assets that still remain a mystery, according to documents reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon.

Since California first revoked the foundation’s charitable registration 18 months ago and ordered it to provide a full accounting of $51,445,599 in outstanding assets it held as of 2023, “no public document establishes what has happened to the money, where it is held, or whether any of it has moved,” according to an investigation by the Intelligent Advocacy Network (IAN) watchdog group that was shared exclusively with the Free Beacon. California’s punitive measures are particularly noteworthy given that they were issued under liberal Attorney General Rob Bonta, who has aligned himself with the Democratic Party’s far-left progressive wing.

The silence from Arc of Justice raises unanswered questions about a foundation that has long served as the financial backbone for a network of radical advocacy groups tied to Benjamin and her Code Pink cofounder, Jodie Evans. Evans is married to Neville Roy Singham, a Maoist American tech mogul who funds far-left causes from his base in Shanghai and who’s currently the subject of a Justice Department criminal probe.

Code Pink, which has had up to a quarter of its operations funded by Singham, is one of the left’s most visible agitators, sending its supporters to disrupt high-profile congressional proceedings where they accuse Israel of “genocide.” Code Pink, which brims with anti-American sentiment, is also notorious for backing dictators, strongmen, and authoritarian regimes—meeting with Cuban communist officials in Havana, cooperating with Hamas, defending Nicolás Maduro, and explaining away Chinese atrocities against the Uyghurs.

August 10, 2026 – The first of Fauci Covid texts are released; Fauci, Vivek Murthy, Rochelle Walensky ignore a 4,070% increase in miscarriages

Senators Ron Johnson and Rand Paul on Monday released the first batch of text messages from Dr. Fauci’s Covid-era iPhone.

The text messages revealed that Fauci privately knew that the Covid vaccine caused miscarriages in pregnant women.

Fauci covered up the data that revealed an 82% miscarriage rate in women vaccinated during the first trimester.

The Gateway Pundit reported in 2022 that VAERS showed a 4070% increase in miscarriages and stillbirths since mRNA roll-out.

(…)

On Monday, Senator Johnson released the first batch of texts from January 2021, and it reveals that Dr. Fauci had concerns about the Covid vaccine for pregnant women.

The first batch of texts was between Dr. Fauci, former CDC Director Rochelle Walensky, and Biden’s Surgeon General, Dr. Vivek Murthy.

Fauci said a second dose of the mRNA Covid vaccine “theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the 1st trimester.”

Fox News reported:

Dr. Anthony Fauci privately discussed concerns about COVID-19 mRNA vaccines for pregnant women in January 2021, including questions about fever after a second dose and a theoretical risk of miscarriage during the first trimester, according to newly released text messages.

The exchange involved Fauci, then-Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky and Dr. Vivek Murthy, who would later become former President Joe Biden’s surgeon general.

Fauci said, because many people experience significant cytokine-related symptoms and fever after a second dose, that reaction “theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the 1st trimester,” according to the messages shown on page two of documents released Monday by Sens. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., and Rand Paul, R-Ky.

Murthy initially asked whether there was any reason to favor vaccination earlier or later in pregnancy and whether officials had seen evidence of adverse outcomes among pregnant women who had already been vaccinated.

Fauci responded that there were “no data or theoretical reason” to believe vaccination earlier in pregnancy should be preferred over later vaccination. He also said concerns that an mRNA vaccine could alter a person’s genes were a misconception.

(Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 8/10/2026) (Archive)

Dr. James Thorp – a board-certified OBGYN and Maternal Fetal Medicine Physician with over 43 years of clinical experience – joined Dr. Kelly Victory and Dr. Drew to discuss recent studies on mRNA Covid vaccines and the adverse effects they have had on pregnant women since they were introduced.

In the past two years (since the mRNA vaccine was introduced), Dr. Thorp explained that he has seen an “off-the-charts” rise in sudden fetal death and adverse pregnancy outcomes, such as fetal malformation and even fetal cardiac arrest, among his patients.

From Dr. Thorp:

“Miscarriage has increased by a massive number… Fetal malformation…fetal cardiac abnormalities… fetal cardiac arrhythmias…fetal cardiac arrest…severe placental problems causing inter-uterine growth restrictions (unable to grow fetuses)… [it’s] a significant increase, and this is all compared with appropriate controls (like the influenza vaccine)… it’s way off the charts.

So, the CDC and the FDA say that if you have a relative risk of [p-value**] 2 or greater, that’s a severe danger signal that should be looked at. Ours are way, way beyond that, with some of the p-values [above] 1,000,000.”

**p-value: the probability, for a given statistical model that, when the null hypothesis is true, the statistical summary would be equal to or more extreme than the actual observed results

In his expert opinion, the culprit for the unprecedented spike in tragic outcomes can be nothing other than the experimental Covid-19 vaccine. To back up his claims, he cites several recent studies that compared miscarriage rates to other vaccines, such as the flu vaccine, and recent studies that have shown the mRNA spike protein from the Covid jab can be passed from mother to child, both in utero and through breastmilk.

However, to make matters even worse, Dr. Thorp warned of an extremely troubling outcome for the babies who are being born – many of them have VAIDS, or vaccine-acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.

Dr. Thorp continued:

“I’m convinced that the reason many of the children… we are seeing VAIDS – vaccine-acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. I suspect the cause of that is because of the thymus gland. The thymus gland is under the sternum, and it’s massive in the fetus – very tiny in us [fully-grown adults]. But, it’s the organ that’s responsible for seeding all of the t-cell clones. And, if you look at that Japanese biodistribution [study] data, it also [shows it] concentrates in the thymus.

[according to that study] I think there was a four-fold increase in the thymus, but that’s in an adult… if you look at a newborn thymus it’s probably more like 120-fold because it’s so vascular and lipophilic… and these children might have lifelong VAIDS because of that insult to the thymus in utero.”

Dr. Thorp told The Epoch Times that he sees anywhere between 6,000–7,000 high-risk pregnant patients a year and has seen many complications among them due to the COVID vaccines.

“I’ve seen many, many, many complications in pregnant women, in moms, and in fetuses, in children, offspring,” he said, “fetal death, miscarriage, death of the fetus inside the mom.

In the same month, The Washington Post FINALLY got around to discussing the pregnancy complications during the pandemic.

The far-left paper, which relies on Big Pharma advertising, would not point out the obvious -that women started having these complications only AFTER the experimental vaccines were introduced on a mass scale across the population.

In December 2022, 4,070% increase in miscarriages and stillbirths was reported to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS).  The VAERS system is the federal government’s method of monitoring vaccine injuries through real-time reporting.

(…)

Fauci himself raised the alarm about the second dose, writing that because “many people have significant cytokines storm and fever after the 2nd dose, this theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the 1st trimester.” Walensky replied that it was “definitely a good point, esp after dose two.”

Then Murthy piled on. In a follow-up text, the man who would soon become Biden’s Surgeon General responded to Fauci’s concern by adding: “I’ve been hearing the concern about the mRNA causing mutations in the developing fetus as well. That’s a really good point re the cytokine storm post second dose.”

The very next day, Murthy flagged a World Health Organization announcement advising against pregnant women taking the Moderna vaccine due to lack of data, asking Fauci and Walensky for their take because “I imagine we will all get asked about this.”

Fast forward just days later. On February 3, 2021, Fauci publicly declared the FDA had found “thus far… no red flags about that, about pregnant women.”

By August 2021 he was even more aggressive, insisting there was “no indication whatsoever” of any increase in adverse issues and that it was “pretty clear that pregnant women should get vaccinated.”

Murthy followed the same script, later telling the public the vaccines were safe at any stage of pregnancy and that it was “all the more important” for pregnant women or those trying to conceive to get the shot.

“It’s all the more important for you to get vaccinated if you are pregnant or if you are trying to become pregnant … The data points show that the vaccines are safe during these various stages before and during pregnancy … They found generally that anytime during your pregnancy is actually fine [to get the vaccine], and that’s why the recommendation is just to get it,” said Murthy.

August 10, 2026 – Mike Benz: Obama’s USAID was never “aid” but color revolutions using American tax dollars

OBAMA’S USAID WAS NEVER “AID”

It was a full-blown color revolution factory funded by your tax dollars.

Mike Benz just laid it out cold on Joe Rogan:

Under Obama, USAID pumped $1.2 BILLION into rogue operations in Cuba. They built a Twitter clone called Zunzuneo — same interface, same buttons, designed to look 100% Cuban. Started with sports, music, and weather updates to build the user base… then flipped the switch to political propaganda, hashtags, coordinated street protests, and “Rent-a-Riots.”

The money never went to the countries it was labeled for. It was routed through Cayman Islands bank accounts — earmarked as “Pakistani aid” — while the actual cash funded the entire operation to overthrow a government.

Contractors trained activists on Facebook, Twitter, slogans, and how to create the perfect “pro-democracy” optics. Data was harvested for micro-targeting. The whole thing was structured to fool Congress, fool the White House, and fool the American people paying for it.

This wasn’t charity.
This was regime-change theater paid for by the U.S. taxpayer.

Same playbook. Same players. Different target next time.

The receipts are public.
The storm doesn’t forget.

August 10, 2026 – State Department revokes over 175,000 Visas for criminal activity

Those foreign nationals “violated the terms of their visas, committed crimes, called for violence against U.S. citizens, defrauded Americans, abused our immigration system, or endangered national security.”

“The majority of these visas were revoked due to law enforcement encounters for a range of criminal activity, with assault, driving under the influence, theft, and drug crimes being the leading causes,” according to the press release. “A significant share of visas were revoked for reckless driving, sexual assault, child abuse, fraud and embezzlement, and other crimes.”

The criminals include (emphasis mine):

  • A foreign national who was charged with felony rape and sexual battery – including of a victim who was mentally disabled.
  • A foreign national charged with felony kidnapping, human trafficking, and sexual exploitation of a minor.
  • A U.S. embassy in North Africa revoked over 100 visas for “birth tourist” parents who came to the United States primarily to give birth so their children would get U.S. citizenship.
  • A foreign national charged with sodomy of a child and aggravated sexual battery.
  • A foreign national charged with over a dozen counts of possessing child sexual abuse material.
  • A foreign national who claimed to operate a legitimate business helping vulnerable patients access healthcare helped orchestrate a massive Medicaid scam – billing for over $5 million of fake services.
  • A foreign national who came to the U.S. to teach young students and was then arrested for sexually assaulting one.

Multiple foreign nationals had their visas revoked when they celebrated Charlie Kirk’s assassination. One person said Kirk “died too late. (Read more: Legal Insurrection, 8/11/2026)  (Archive)

August 10, 2026 – Meet Abdul El-Sayed, his wife Sarah Jukaku, and their connections to Muslim Brotherhood organizations

Abdul El-Sayed and his wife Sarah Jukaku (Credit: Times of India)

Shocking Information! It’s a family affair. Meet Abdul El-Sayed. Many speak about his past and his father in-laws too. But does anyone have even the faintest idea of how serious it is? We are talking Islam taking over western society! And my compelling documents and other evidence will scare the bajeebers outta you.

Abdul El-Sayed was Vice President, and his wife, Sarah Jukaku, was President of the Muslim Student Association (MSA) together at the University of Michigan.

The MSA is also the fore father of a massive list of Muslim Brotherhood orgs. I’ll explain this more in a bit.

❗️Remember this list.

“MSA National was the precursor of ISNA, ICNA, MAYA, IMA, AMSS, AMSE, MYNA, Islamic Book Service, and the North American Islamic Trust (NAIT).

NAIT is one of the largest Muslim funding orgs in America. NAIT holds the title to more than 300 mosques, or approximately 27 percent of the estimated 1,200 mosques in the United States.

Oh but it gets so much better. So MSA was the precursor to the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), right?

Well, El-Sayed’s wife’s father, Tayeb Jukaku, has served on the 20-member founding committee of ISNA since at least 2007. And he has also served in various capacities within CAIR Michigan, including serving as a former President of the Board of Directors for several years. Lastly he was Board of Directors for the Michigan Muslim Community Council.

*So El-Sayed and his wife were both VIP’s at MSA which was a parent to an org that wifeys father was a VIP at (family affair).

But hold on, it gets better. Here I have a 1991 list from the Muslim Brotherhood itself of partner orgs. Do any of these sound familiar yet from a few paragraphs up? 😁

Every org that was fore-fathered at Abdul El-Sayed’s and his wife’s MSA is partners with the Muslim Brotherhood.

Muslim Brotherhood Partners 👇🏻

– ISNA (Father in law too?)
– MSA, Muslim Student Association (ah ha!)
– NAIT (eek!)
– MAYA (wow)
– ICNA (even more?)
– AMSS (keep going)
– AMSE (seriously?)
– MYNA (OMFG)
– IBS (yup all of them)

But let’s not stop yet. I also found the first ever Muslim Student Association (MSA) guide. Where they discuss taking over western society.

♦️ A GUIDE ON HOW TO RUN A SUCCESSFUL MSA

FIRST EDITION March, 1996

Here’s a few choice quotes:

“We must come together, local MSAs and MSA National, to advance the cause of Islam in this continent. We are commanded by Allah “And hold fast, together, by the Rope which Allah (stretches out for you), and be not divided among yourselves””

“First, it should be the long-term goal of every MSA to Islamicize the politics of their respective university.”

“Secondly, the politicization of the MSA means to make the MSA more of a force on internal campus politics.”

“It is very tempting and easy to succumb to western pressure and “water-down” Islam to fit a more western perspective. This is especially the case with topics like jihad and women in Islam.

Surely we don’ t want our reward of doing daw’ ah to be transformed into punishment for speaking about Allah without knowledge, or attempting to change His religion.”

The attached video is the MSA Pledge of Allegiance. Here’s a few sentences from it:

Jihad is my spirit
Paradise is my goal
And I will die to establish Islam

Sources to follow, and expect 1-2 more threads. Yeah there’s more.

Guess I should start at the top and work my way down with the evidence.

Abdul El-Sayeds wife, Sarah Jukaku, was president of the Muslim Student Association (MSA) at the University of Michigan.

“Sarah Jukaku, a fifth-year senior at the University of Michigan and president of the school’s Muslim Student Association.”

https://archive.is/1ExWR

The Muslim Student Association (MSA) started in Obama’s Illinois. 😏

The first ever financial trust for Muslims was created by the MSA.

“MSA National was the precursor of ISNA, ICNA, MAYA, IMA, AMSS, AMSE, MYNA, Islamic Book Service, and the North American Islamic Trust (NAIT).”

“It was under MSA that the first ever Muslim financial trust company — North American Islamic Trust (NAIT) was formed.”

“It was in January 1963 that now some of the most respected personalities in the Islamic movement came together at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and formed the MSA of the United States and Canada. Over seventy people from across the country, including Brs. Ahmad Sakr, Mahdi Bhadori, Ahmad Totonji, Ilyas Ba-Yunus, and others, then all students, met in what would be the first of a number of historic gatherings to discuss the state of Muslims in North America.”

“MSA was the first to establish a book depository and resale effort — the Islamic Book Service (IBS).”

“A significant portion (of students) realized that they would still have the responsibility of spreading Islam as students in North America. The main goal was always Da’wah. When the chapters realized that working on a national level, in a coordinated and concerted effort may be advantageous, they decided to put their heads together. MSA of the US & Canada was the result.”

Abdul El-Sayed’s father: Tayeb Jukaku has served on the 20-member founding committee of Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) since at least 2007.

NAME OF SPOUSE: Faiziya Tayeb

Ok I got some sleep. Here’s some sources I forgot. This is Abdul El-Sayeds father in law listed on the CAIR website.

“Dr. Jukaku Tayeb has served in various capacities within CAIR Michigan, including serving as a former President of the Board of Directors for several years. He is a practicing nephrologist and the CEO of his group. He serves on several committees in area hospitals. He is a member of the ISNA Founders Committee, a former president of the Islamic Association of Greater Detroit. He is a board of director, and past chairman of the Board of the Huda Clinic, a free charitable health clinic in Detroit where he volunteers at. He is also a member of the Michigan Muslim Community Council (MMCC). He obtained his medical degree from Bangalore Medical College in India in 1976, and completed his training in nephrology at Henry Ford Hospital, Detroit.”

Now I told you that there’s new stuff. Hopefully you read the bottom of my top post. 1-2 more threads will be coming. Likely two.

Anywho the ISNA and NAIT were both unindicted co conspirators with terrorists. Both started from the Muslim Student Association. And El-Sayeds father in-law has been at ISNA long term.

“However, in a 2007 Texas criminal prosecution of the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development, a case in which the government alleged the defendants had conspired to provide material support to Hamas, the U.S. attorney named an astonishing 246 people and organizations as “Unindicted Co-conspirators and/or Joint Venturers” and made the list public. Some of the country’s largest, mainstream Muslim organizations were listed, including the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) and the North American Islamic Trust (NAIT).”

August 10, 2026 – New docs show the FBI opened a probe and schemed to have former AG Jeff Sessions recuse from Russiagate investigation

New revelations about the FBI pulling out all the stops to try to destroy the Trump 45 Administration just keep on coming.

Now we learn that in 2017 they started Operation MARCH TOLL targeting former AG Jeff Sessions. Few men are as upstanding as Jeff Sessions but as part of the Russiagate Hoax, even he could be targeted by his own FBI subordinates.

This is likely why Sessions recused himself from Russiagate, paving the way for Rosenstein to appoint Robert Mueller Special Counsel, a man who would be exposed as senile when he went before Congress. Instead, his smear operation was really run by Andrew Weissmann, a deadly partisan schemer veteran of many lawless actions including destroying Arthur Andersen and thousands of jobs.

So the maneuver worked. Sessions would never have authorized a Special Counsel aimed at Trump for the stupid Russiagate Hoax, so they created MARCH TOLL to put Sessions in jeopardy himself, so they could argue to him that he was self interested and therefore needed to recuse (step aside from the investigation).

They have schemes within schemes.

Imagine the professional thrill of being named Attorney General and then being told almost immediately — about a month after being confirmed — that you should be investigated by your own Department. And then by May 10, 2017, you are under such an investigation.

Why call it MARCH TOLL? My working theory is that that is a reference to the month when Sessions decided to recuse. March 2017 is also when Senators Leahy and Franken argued Sessions was somehow compromised by Russia.

Why a “Toll”? Could be that the investigation was the penalty for recusing. Or it could have been the penalty Leahy and Franken helped unleash on their former ostensible brother in the Senate. Or both.

Whatever the reason for the name, Sessions didn’t do anything wrong, MARCH TOLL was eventually closed, its purpose satisfied: getting an unobstructed ball rolling in the Russiagate area against Trump.

Sidelining an AG was the means to that end.

4) DAG Rod Rosenstein called Robert Mueller to discuss the special counsel appointment on Wednesday May 10th, 2017, at 7:45am.

According to his own admissions (NBC and CBS), Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe immediately began a criminal ‘obstruction’ investigation.

Wednesday May 10th McCabe immediately enlisted Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.

A few hours after the Rosenstein-Mueller phone call James Comey’s office was being searched by the SSA Whistleblower per the IG report on Comey’s memos.

https://scribd.com/document/423684273/IG-Report-on-James-Comey

(…) Just the News reported last week that the FBI also opened another investigation – codenamed “Oxferd Comma” – the following week into President Trump, alleging the newly elected president may have been acting as a Russian asset when he fired Comey.

The FBI’s probe into Sessions for possible false statements has been public since 2018, when Session’s lawyer told the media that Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team had interviewed the Attorney General and decided not to move forward. Mueller, who was appointed to investigate allegations of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia shortly after Comey’s firing, concluded in his final report that his office could not prove Sessions was “willfully untruthful.”

Sessions told lawmakers that he “did not have communication with the Russians”

Mueller’s Trump-Russia collusion probe has since been discredited. An investigation by Special Counsel John Durham – released by the Biden Justice Department in 2023 – concluded there was no basis for the FBI to even open the original Crossfire Hurricane investigation into allegations of Russia collusion, for example.

In January 2017, Sessions told lawmakers that he “did not have communication with the Russians” when asked whether anyone affiliated with Trump’s campaign communicated with that country’s government. Later reporting showed that Sessions met with the Russian ambassador to the United States on at least two occasions during the Trump campaign and while he represented Alabama in the Senate.

Sessions sent a letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee on March 6 to supplement his prior testimony, confirming that he did, in fact, meet with the Russian ambassador twice during the campaign season, but that his answer, “I didn’t have–did not have communications with the Russians (…} ” was truthful because Franken asked about a “continuing exchange of information during the campaign” between agents of the campaign and the Russian government.

“I did not mention communications I had had with the Russian Ambassador over the years because the question did not ask about them,” Sessions wrote in the letter.

The supplementary testimony was not enough to satisfy Leahy and Franken, who then wrote to Comey raising concerns about Sessions’ statements to their committee and accusing him of possibly committing perjury.

FBI opened probe into AG Jeff Sessions at Democrats’ request even after he updated his testimony

August 11, 2026 – Wisconsin rejects communism – DSA’s Francesca Hong loses Wisconsin’s Dem primary for governor

Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley narrowly won Wisconsin’s Democratic gubernatorial primary on Tuesday night, defeating far-left state lawmaker Francesca Hong despite her backing from Marxist streamer Hasan Piker.

Hong’s loss raises a broader question for the democratic socialist movement: Has Piker’s support become a political liability?

His incendiary, anti-American rhetoric, including calls to “kill capitalists,” has handed Republicans a potent line of attack against the socialist and Marxist candidates he promotes. In addition, leaders of the Democratic Socialists of America routinely call for undermining the nation and collapsing capitalism.

It increasingly appears that the DSA’s ultimate goal is not affordability, opposition to data centers, or whatever issue its members happen to be promoting that day to rile up fellow Marxists. It is really about ending the American empire.

Hong’s loss is a major sigh of relief for the Democratic Party establishment, which initially welcomed socialists and Marxists into their “big tent” DEI kingdom, but that has since turned out to be a terrible idea as the far-left seizes political power from establishment candidates in several primaries across the country this summer. (Read more: Zero Hedge, 8/12/2026) (Archive)

August 11, 2026 – James O’Keefe and Cam Higby, disguised in Muslim attire, expose the corrupt vouching system in Minnesota

CAUGHT INSIDE MINNEAPOLIS POLLING BOOTHS: Minnesota Poll Workers Tell O’Keefe, Dressed in Muslim Garb, & @camhigby, in a Burka, That They Can Vouch for Eight Unregistered Voters Without ID, Allowing Them to Vote in Minnesota Primary Election

Election worker says, “You’re the ID,” referring to the registered voter serving as identification for the people they are vouching for.

Election worker confirms O’Keefe’s question about unregistered voters being vouched for: “I can vouch for them. They are not registered… That’s okay. That’s fine. Yeah!”

Election worker explains that a registered voter in the same precinct can vouch for up to eight people: “If you’re all in the same precinct and you are already registered, you can vouch for them as ID. Eight people.”

More reports coming soon from the Justice League.

@realmuckraker @anthonyjrubin @camhigby @ctznjusticelg

went undercover in Minneapolis, [Minnesota] on Primary Election Day with @anthonyjrubin, founder of @realmuckraker and @camhigby, members of the Justice League and OMG undercover journalists to put Minnesota’s voter “vouching” system to the test.

Under Minnesota’s Statutes § 201.061, a registered voter can sign an affidavit affirming that they know another individual resides in the same precinct, allowing that person to register at the polls without presenting standard proof of residence. One registered voter can vouch for up to eight people.

We wanted to find out what this actually looks like inside a polling place and how far election workers would let us take it.

Disguised in traditional Muslim attire, we entered polling locations across Minneapolis and presented an intentionally extreme scenario to expose the sheer lunacy of Minnesota’s ‘vouching’ system. I told workers that the people accompanying me were unregistered and repeatedly pressed them about identification, how many people I could bring in, and what would be required for them to register.

Again and again, workers explained the vouching process to us.

At one location, after I made clear that the people with me were not registered, a worker told me I could vouch for as many as eight people. I told them I would leave, get additional people and return. The worker explained that because I was already registered, I could serve as the voucher.

At another location, a poll worker explained that if everyone was in the same precinct and I was already registered there, I could vouch for their residency.

When I pressed her about identification, she put it plainly: “You’re the ID.”

At White Park Recreation Center, a worker explained that a voucher must personally know the individuals and know that they live within the precinct. The worker also explained that the voucher signs a legal oath affirming their residency, while the individuals being vouched for sign an oath affirming their own identity and eligibility to vote.

I asked whether their eligibility was actually verified. “After the fact, yeah,” the worker responded.

We wanted to put the process to an extreme real-world test and document what election workers would tell us when confronted with the scenario firsthand. The purpose wasn’t simply to ask what Minnesota law says on paper.

Not every worker reacted the same way. Some became suspicious of our team and challenged what we were doing.

But across the locations captured in our investigation, we documented workers explaining how Minnesota’s vouching process could be used to establish residency for people registering at the polls without standard identification.

The investigation is part of an ongoing @ctznjusticelg series, with additional follow-up reporting from @anthonyjrubin, founder of @realmuckraker & @camhigby coming soon.

Minnesota Secretary of State Steve Simon and O’Keefe Media Group full statements: 

Steve Simon:

“During Minnesota’s Primary on August 11, 2026, members of a widely discredited Florida-based political group visited several polling places in Minneapolis impersonating Minnesota voters. Dressed in what they called ‘Muslim’ costumes, and imitating foreign accents, they falsely claimed to be registered Minnesota voters. The group used concealed cameras to record their interactions with poll workers, releasing a heavily edited video of their encounters. Their apparent goal was to cast doubt on one or more Minnesota election laws that have been in force for over fifty years. Instead, they revealed their ignorance of how those laws actually work – while putting themselves in legal jeopardy.

“Poll workers immediately reported these visits to local election officials and law enforcement is reviewing the situation.

“The misconduct by this group is outrageous and totally unacceptable. We have zero tolerance for lying, lawbreaking, and disruptions at our polling places.

“Voters deserve better, as do the tens of thousands of our neighbors and friends who serve as poll workers. Our aim, as always, is to ensure that our polling places are islands of calm. Minnesota laws are there to ensure that outcome.”

O’Keefe Media Group:

“The Justice League did not impersonate anyone. At no point did we claim to be William Pomerantz or any other voter. We stated a name and asked election workers questions about Minnesota’s vouching process.

This type of investigative reporting is not new. Project Veritas released a similar investigation involving Eric Holder’s ballot in 2012 and elections in New Hampshire in 2012 and 2016.

The Justice League asked whether a registered voter could vouch for up to eight unregistered individuals without identification. And to that the poll worker responded saying yes and when pushed on whether they needed identification, she claimed “you’re the ID.”

This is not outrageous conduct. Our investigative reporters asked questions, documented the answers, and published them — exactly what a newsroom does. No ballot was cast.

Those answers exposed a vouching system that millions of Americans were previously unaware of and have every right to scrutinize.”

August 11, 2026 – Former Bush White House spokesman: Barack Obama got on the 2008 Indiana primary ballot with fraudulent signatures

A Bush White House spokesman drops a bomb on CNN that nobody saw coming: Barack Obama got on the 2008 Indiana primary ballot with FRAUDULENT signatures.

And he says it to Obama’s own strategist, David Axelrod, sitting three feet away.

AXELROD: [Mocking] “In Arizona, [Trump] hired the cyber ninjas…”

SEAT: “I’ll give you an example of where it [election fraud] has been determinative. And that’s in my home state of Indiana, Saint Joseph County. The gentleman you previously worked for, David Axelrod, Barack Obama got on the ballot because Democrats in that county submitted fraudulent ballot petition signatures. People, including the Democrat county chair, went to jail over that. Barack Obama should not have been on the primary ballot in the state of Indiana.”

KINZINGER: “But that’s not a voting issue. Like that’s something—”

PETE SEAT: “It is a voting issue because he was on the ballot and people could vote for him, and he shouldn’t have been.”

AXELROD: “How did how did that get determined?”

SEAT: “It was finally exposed two years later. It went through the courts, and several people found themselves in jail. But that’s the problem. It didn’t happen. They didn’t find it before he was on the ballot. It took years after.”

Pete Seat is right. In 2013, four Indiana Democrats were convicted for forging signatures on the 2008 presidential primary petitions, and county party chair Butch Morgan went to jail for orchestrating it.

They literally copied names off old petitions, including a former governor who confirmed he never signed.

Election fraud is not a conspiracy theory. It happens, and a county chairman of a major party sat in a jail cell for it.

August 12, 2026 – Blanche busts Chinese sham marriage ring – 11 “naturalized” citizens arrested for over 1,000 fake marriages to obtain green cards

The Trump Justice Department announced that 11 defendants have been charged in a sprawling, decade-long scheme that allegedly arranged more than 1,000 sham marriages, primarily between Chinese nationals and American citizens, to fraudulently obtain green cards.

Ten defendants were arrested Wednesday morning, according to the Justice Department. The eleventh was charged in the same two-count federal indictment.

(…)

According to the indictment unsealed in the Southern District of New York, the network operated from at least 2016 through July 2026. Chinese nationals paid facilitators as much as $100,000 each to be paired with willing U.S. citizens.

The American “spouses” received up to $30,000, often in installments tied to milestones in the green card process. Recruiters pocketed commissions around $5,000 per match.

Prosecutors say the defendants ran a full-service fraud machine: facilitators who identified Chinese customers, recruiters who hunted for Americans willing to play along, assistants who prepared the fraudulent immigration paperwork, and even officiants who staged the fake ceremonies. Sham weddings were arranged across the country — Connecticut, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, Florida — and even overseas in China and Vanuatu.

(…)

BREAKING: Attorney General Todd Blanche just announced the ARRESTS of 11 “naturalized” US citizens from China who arranged over 1,000 SHAM MARRIAGES between Chinese nationals and Americans

De-naturalize EVERY SINGLE ONE of them

“This is one of the largest marriage fraud prosecutions in United States HISTORY,” Blanche said

“This scheme was not a quick fly by night operation but rather a years long multimillion dollar cottage industry to criminally assist people who would not or legally could not otherwise become citizens of the United States.”

August 12, 2026 – Former SPLC intel project director Heidi Beirich is arrested on fraud charges

Heidi Beirich (Credit: public domain)

Beirich was charged with fraud conspiracy, conspiracy to submit false statements to a federally insured bank, and conspiracy to conceal money laundering.

Heidi Beirich, a former chief financial officer at the embattled Southern Poverty Law Center, has been arrested on fraud charges for her alleged role in overseeing the organization’s payments to white supremacist group informants. One of those informants the SPLC paid out was allegedly her romantic partner.

Attorney General Todd Blanche said on Wednesday, “I believe she was part of the effort to open bank accounts in completely fictitious companies’ names and make payments to individuals for reasons that were not accurate as described. This is exactly what we said would happen in a case like this, which is that our investigators and the US attorneys and the agents working the case will … keep on working it even after the initial indictment,” per CNN.

Beirich was charged in a superseding indictment with fraud conspiracy, conspiracy to submit false statements to a federally insured bank, and conspiracy to conceal money laundering. The SPLC was indicted on similar charges earlier in 2026.

Beirich, who was the director of the SPLC’s Intelligence Project between 2012 and 2019, is accused of funneling over $1 million to a “field source” that was part of the neo-Nazi group National Alliance. Beirich is identified as only “Employee-2” in the superseding indictment that revealed the payments in June. The superseding indictment alleged that around $140,000 was deposited into a joint bank account owned [by] the field source and Employee-2, who owned a house together. The employee is alleged to have “then used donors’ money to pay the couple’s personal living expenses.”

The indictment alleged that F-9 broke into the organization’s headquarters and stole “approximately 25 boxes of documents.” The contents of those documents were allegedly the basis of an article Beirich wrote in 2015 for the SPLC’s Hatewatch section of its website titled “Chaos at the Compound.” The indictment also alleged that the SPLC paid a second informant around $6,000 to take responsibility for the burglary and cover up who their informant was.

August 12, 2026 – New WH Transparency Task Force docs: FBI had 14 informants on Biden corruption but ran secret op to dismiss evidence as disinformation

OPERATION ROUND RIVER

The FBI ran a secret 2020 operation that labeled Biden family critics as Russian “conduits” while protecting the Bidens as “targets.”

Newly declassified documents show the Bureau had at least 14 confidential human sources reporting negative information on Joe Biden.

Analysts marked some of that reporting as Russian DISINFORMATION — without first determining if the allegations were even TRUE.

Conservatives investigating Burisma were branded conduits.
Democrats connected to the scandal were treated as victims.

This was the reverse of Crossfire Hurricane.

Kash Patel has dismantled the team and opened an investigation.
More documents are coming.

When intelligence agencies decide which evidence is allowed to surface during an election, the system is no longer NEUTRAL.

What happens to a country that lets its own spy agencies pick the winners?

Just The News reports:

The FBI and U.S. spy agencies received derogatory evidence about Joe Biden from 14 different informants but embarked on a secret operation to tamp down a Ukrainian corruption scandal engulfing his family during the 2020 election by formally designating Attorney General Bill Barr, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, key members of Congress and journalists as Russian disinformation “conduits,” according to explosive intelligence community documents declassified by the White House.

A spreadsheet that was recovered from U.S. intelligence agency files and made public Wednesday by the White House Government Transparency Task Force shows that spy agencies and the FBI created a list of more than six dozen prominent organizations, Americans or foreigners who became figures in the Biden family Ukraine scandal and the 2019 impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump.

The spreadsheet neatly divided figures along political lines, with Democrats like the Bidens, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Barack Obama and George Soros listed as victimized “targets” of Russian disinformation and conservatives like Fox News, One America News, filmmaker Michael Caputo and Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani as “conduits” for disinformation.

The FBI also labeled two of President Donald Trump’s first-term Cabinet secretaries, Pompeo and Barr, as well as Republican Sens. Chuck Grassley, Ron Johnson and Lindsey Graham and House GOP committee chairmen Devin Nunes and Jim Jordan as “conduits” even while they all investigated whether the allegations of corruption against the Biden family were true.

The designations were part of a secret counterintelligence operation codenamed “Round River” that was launched during the 2020 election by a task force of FBI analysts claiming to be fighting “malign foreign influence” in the 2020 election, according to an administration official.

The Foreign Influence Task Force (FITF), based in FBI headquarters, concurred with each of the assessments in the spreadsheet with a “no objection” designation, the documents state.

Many of the Americans were identified as potential candidates for defensive briefings, though the spreadsheets and documents found so far do not identify how many Americans ultimately were given such briefings.

In some ways, the Round River operation is a mirror opposite of the Russia collusion probe known as Crossfire Hurricane in which the FBI pursued unsubstantiated allegations spread by Democrats that Trump and his allies conspired with Vladimir Putin to hijack the 2016 election. In Round River, FBI analysts sought to dismiss significant evidence in the bureau’s possession, including Hunter Biden’s own laptop, pointing to possible corruption by the Bidens.  (Read much more: Just the News, 8/12/2026)  (Archive)

John Solomon was asked today by @ericbolling if he believes we will ever see perp walks.

“I think so. There is a very active grand jury in Fort Pierce, Florida. You don’t call a grand jury and start hauling witnesses before it unless you have a crime, or two, or three, or four that you’re investigating.

The activity down in Fort Pierce has been very fast paced. It’s really accelerating under Joe diGenova… It looks to me like an operation that probably would be in a position to make some indictment decisions before Labor Day, or just after Labor Day…

I think you may see multiple people charged over the next six months to a year.”

It’s definitely coming, but the question is when?

President Trump doesn’t continuously remind the American people about what they did for no reason.

@jsolomonReports

Fort Pierce is much bigger than Brennan and Comey… this is where ten years of government weaponization may finally be assembled into one continous conspiracy…

We knew Durham was laying the foundation for what would come… he gathered the records… questioned the players… exposed the unverified intelligence, FISA abuse and collapsed safeguards… then preserved the evidence while narrow prosecutions left the larger machine untouched…

Now Round River exposes the other half… the FBI chased weak information against Trump through Crossfire Hurricane… while at least 14 confidential human sources were reporting derogatory information about Joe Biden…

Round River analysts moved through those files… marked intelligence as Russian disinformation… buried records behind restricted access… and branded the people investigating Biden family corruption as Russian conduits…

Bill Barr… Mike Pompeo… Chuck Grassley… Ron Johnson… Lindsey Graham… Devin Nunes… Jim Jordan… journalists and government officials… anyone carrying the evidence toward public view was pulled inside the counterintelligence frame…

The FBI reportdly identified 53 sources potentially exposed to foreign intelligence… 14 had reported information against Biden… Hunter’s laptop had already been authenticated… and the U.S. attorney assigned to review the Biden-Ukraine allegations reportedly never knew Round River was operating through the same Pittsburgh office…

That is the machine… investigate anything that could damage Trump… discredit anything that could damage Biden… bury the files… smear the witnesses… target the investigators… then hide the operation behind intelligence classifications…

Crossfire manufactured the Trump narrative… Round River buried the Biden evidence… media flooded the country with both outcomes… censorship sealed the information environment… Mueller, impeachment, Arctic Frost, Mar-a-Lago and Jack Smith carried the pressure forward…

Same machine… same protected outcome… now the flow is reversing… this reaches far beyond Trump…

If federal power was used to investigate one candidate… protect the other… control what Americans were allowed to know… and disable the president they elected… then the constitutional voice of the American people was the real target…

Durham documented how it began… Round River shows how they protected the outcome… Fort Pierce will finally connect the whole machine…

August 13, 2026 – HHS Report: Wolves in White Coats – How Doctors and Hospitals Pushed and Profited from the Fraud of “Gender Medicine”

Today, @HHSGov released “Wolves in White Coats,” a comprehensive commissioned report that presents HHS’ findings and recommendations about the industry pushing and profiting off so-called “gender medicine.”

Pursuant to its recommendations, today @VP, as Chairman of @WHFraudTF, and @SecKennedy referred hospitals and clinics identified by the report to @TheJusticeDept and @OIGatHHS for possible violations of federal law.

As physicians, our first obligation is to do no harm.

But when ideology, profit, and political pressure come before patients, that trust is broken.

Following the release of Wolves in White Coats from the HHS Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health, @AaronKheriatyMD and I explain in our new op-ed what the report uncovered, why the medical establishment must reckon with what happened—and why protecting children must come first.

Read the article here ➡️https://nypost.com/2026/08/13/opinion/doctors-profited-from-fraud-and-mutilation-in-minor-trans-treatments-hhs-report/

Our children were harmed, mutilated, and then cast aside for profit and politics.

Our @HHSGov commissioned report, Wolves in White Coats, exposes what happened to the most vulnerable among us.

Their stories deserve to be heard. Their suffering demands accountability.

To view their testimonies, click here ➡️ https://youtu.be/OjuFx9Pd_Vo

HHS just dropped a bombshell report exposing the gender clinic industry.

Hospitals and clinics allegedly used shady billing codes to push sex-change procedures on kids that insurance might not have covered.

Then locked them in as lifelong patients for hormones, labs, and complications.

Detransitioners are speaking out:

• Testosterone destroyed livers at 14
• Genital atrophy
• Urinary issues
• Constant nerve pain
• Bone density loss

One was pitched a $200,000 facial surgery like a car salesman.

JD Vance is sending the findings to the DOJ.

Any hospital that broke the law will be held accountable.

This wasn’t medicine.

It was a business model built on vulnerable kids.

The cover-up is ending. 🇺🇸

August 13, 2026 – A senior Chinese Communist Party (CCP) intelligence official buys a historic building overlooking the White House Complex

(Credit: The Gateway Pundit)

SCOOP: A senior Chinese Communist Party (CCP) intelligence official is the new owner of a historic building overlooking the White House Complex, a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation discovered.

Located approximately 650 feet northeast of the White House grounds, the 100-year-old Securities Building on 15th Street was purchased on July 21, 2026 for $8.4 million by the Philip Qiu and Family Foundation, filings show. The building’s new owner, Philip Qiu, has held numerous positions within Chinese intelligence and state security arms, according to university records and DCNF translations of Chinese government announcements.

Read more from @LenczyckiPhilip below.

More from The Daily Caller:

Qiu’s ownership of The Securities Building poses an urgent national security threat and must be investigated by federal authorities, multiple intelligence experts told the DCNF.

“This property allows access for big splashy intel ops as well as for more classic ops — like a listening post or Stingray-like systems to collect phone calls, text messages, and digital exhaust,” Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA operations officer, told the DCNF. “That’s all great for collecting targeting information to later ‘bump’ or recruit targets out in the world, who otherwise work inside a key U.S. government building.”

“But what’s especially alarming are emerging ops that properties like this allow — like hidden drone swarms or shipping container missiles,” said Wright, who hosts The Wright Report podcast. “This kind of property is where the next 9/11 will come from. It’s coming.”

Qiu, whose Chinese name is Qiu Feili, has held at least four Chinese government positions, beginning with a “career as a detective in the Criminal Investigation Team in Shanghai,” a 2024 University of New Haven (UNH) Instagram post states.

[…]

“Classmate Qiu Feili, who has undergone special forces training, served as a commander in the Red-Blue Battle, and not only directed his troops to successfully capture enemy positions, but also killed one-third of the opposing forces with 42 shots, achieving the best individual sniper record,” according to a DCNF translation of SJTU’s announcement concerning the training exercise.

[…]

The Shanghai native has also held at least three positions in arms of a CCP influence and intelligence agency called the United Front Work Department (UFWD), according to DCNF translations of Chinese government announcements. The UFWD’s operations are a “blend of engagement, influence activities, and intelligence operations” that Beijing uses to steer foreign policy and “gain access to advanced foreign technology,” according to the House Select Committee on the CCP.

Among other roles, Qiu has served on the executive committee of the Shanghai branch of the UFWD’s All-China Federation Of Returned Overseas Chinese (ACFROC), according to a DCNF translation of a Chinese government announcement.

August 13, 2026 – Former Columbus Mississippi vice mayor indicted in alleged city contract scheme

Joseph Mickens (Credit: public domain)

COLUMBUS, Miss. (WTVA) — A former Columbus city councilman and vice mayor is facing felony charges after a Lowndes County grand jury returned an indictment accusing him of participating in a scheme involving city contracts and money laundering.

The Lowndes County Sheriff’s Office announced the arrest of Joseph Mickens, who served as the Ward 2 councilman for more than 15 years.

Mickens is charged with laundering a monetary instrument and offering inducements to influence an award of contracts.

Marcus Dawson (Credit: public domain)

A second man, Marcus Dawson, owner of HVAC & Mechanical Co. LLC, was also indicted in connection with the case.

Authorities arrested both on Thursday morning.

The investigation was conducted by the Mississippi State Auditor’s Office, which presented its findings to the Lowndes County grand jury in July.

According to the allegations in the indictment, Mickens and Dawson are accused of working together to manipulate the city’s contracting process for their own financial benefit.

Investigators allege Mickens worked to secure flooring contracts through the city, despite allegedly being ineligible to receive those contracts.

In exchange, prosecutors allege Dawson would receive future city HVAC contracts, along with cash payments that the two allegedly worked together to conceal. (Read more: WBLT, 1/13/2026)  (Archive)

August 13, 2026 – Marco Polo documents 69 lies and/or false statements from Hunter Biden in just the first half of his discussion with Tucker Carlson

August 13, 2026 – The Ukrainian Prosecutor Biden had fired claims in his book hundreds of billions of American taxpayer dollars went to globalist interests

In 2019, a sitting president was impeached after pressing Ukraine to investigate matters involving Joe Biden and his son Hunter. Viktor Shokin’s explosive new book, “Biden’s Corruption and War,” offers a first-person account from one of the figures at the center of that controversy.

No freedom-loving American can forget the video of then-Vice President Joe Biden recounting how he threatened to withhold U.S. loan guarantees unless Ukraine fired its prosecutor general.

Americans deserve to know how their government uses power abroad, how foreign aid is distributed, and whether politically connected families benefit.

“Well, son of a bitch. He got fired,” Biden said. “And they put in place someone who was solid at the time.”

The clip has been replayed for years because it sounds, at minimum, astonishingly cavalier: a sitting vice president boasting that American leverage forced the removal of a foreign prosecutor.

(…) Shokin presents a stark thesis: He argues that the war in Ukraine became a vehicle for corruption and hidden agendas extending far beyond the battlefield.

Among his most explosive allegations are claims that $350 billion in U.S. taxpayer money was recycled through political and globalist networks, that arms arrangements were tainted by corruption, and that wartime chaos facilitated the trafficking of Ukrainian women and children.

Those are grave allegations. They come from a man who says he paid a personal price for getting too close to uncomfortable truths. But they remain allegations, and the book should be read as Shokin’s case — not as independent proof of every charge.

[…]Shokin in the book gives his account of the pressure campaign that ended with his removal.

He writes that Joe Biden was known in Ukraine as the “Vice King” and portrays the vice president as wielding extraordinary influence over then-President Petro Poroshenko and the Ukrainian government.

The book lays out names, dates, meetings, and episodes that Shokin says connect the Burisma investigation to the effort to fire him. (Read more: The Blaze, 8/13/2026) (Archive)

August 13, 2026 – Two former Metro Nashville teachers say administrators directed them to change failing grades

Two former Metro Nashville Public Schools teachers say district administrators directed them to change failing grades for students, according to internal emails and documents obtained by WSMV4 Investigates.

Samira Hardcastle, who was named the 2025-2026 Teacher of the Year at John F. Kennedy Middle School, resigned in May after eight years of teaching art in Metro Schools. In her resignation letter, she cited grade fabrication at the direction of district administrators as one of the reasons for leaving.

“And they just want me to shut up and go along with the game that they’re playing,” Hardcastle said. “And I’m not.”

Hardcastle said she believes administrators pushed grade changes for one reason.

“It makes our scores look better,” she said. “I mean, as a district, it makes things look better.”

Hardcastle said a student failed to complete an art project, so she gave the student a failing grade. She said the student’s parent then intervened, and the dispute reached the district level, where three administrators met with the parent. Administrators determined Hardcastle had not provided a proper rubric for the assignment.

“So they all came to the conclusion that I had to change her grade,” Hardcastle said. “I did not change her grade. They did. I refused.”

Second teacher raises similar concerns

Emails obtained by WSMV4 Investigates show former John Overton High School math teacher Diana Wills also disputed orders to change failing grades. In one email, Wills wrote, “What is being done is unethical and could very well be interpreted as illegal.”

The emails show administrators told Wills she had failed students without alerting their parents to their failing grades, as required by district policy, and that because of it she needed to pass the students by giving them a D.

Wills pushed back, writing that one student was told many times to make up exams and never did. She also noted she was on medical leave for much of one semester. In another email, she wrote, “You are latching onto a very vague line in the policy so you can cook the books to have the data look the way you need it to.” (Read more: WSMV4.com, 8/13/2026)  (Archive)

Investigative reporter Paul Sperry posted a damning update to the Jim Comey “86 47” beach story on Friday.

According to Paul, there is evidence that Jim Comey’s wife Patricia sent him a Google screenshot of a non-violent definition of the term “86” two minutes before Comey posted his infamous rock picture of “86-47” on Instagram.

Paul Sperry: BREAKING: An FBI affidavit for a search warrant in the James Comey presidential threat case reveals his wife Patrice Comey sent him a Google screenshot of a nonviolent definition of the term “86” two (2) minutes before Comey posted the alleged threat against President Trump, indicating some forethought his posting could be construed as a threat.”

86 is a common street term for murder. Comey and his wife thought they were being cute.

Comey was also one of the leaders along with Barack Obama and John Brennan who decided to run a coup against the US President during Trump’s first term in office.

James Comey posted his threatening ‘8647’ Instagram post last May.

“Cool shell formation on my beach walk,” Comey said.

“86 47” is a threat to ‘eliminate/kill’ the 47th president.

August 14, 2026 – Massachusetts mayor, Brian DePeña, is charged with Covid small business loan fraud and money laundering

Brian DePena (Credit: NBC Boston)

BOSTON – The Mayor of Lawrence, Mass. was arrested and charged today with fraudulently obtaining over $1.5 million in COVID small-business loans and using the proceeds to fund his campaign account, pay personal taxes, and pay off over $880,000 in high-interest, hard-money mortgages that encumbered various properties he owned in Lawrence.

Brian Depena, 61, is charged with one count of wire fraud and one count of money laundering. Depena will make an initial appearance in federal court in Boston later today. Depena was elected as Mayor of Lawrence in November 2021 and was reelected in November 2025. He previously served on the Lawrence City Council from 2016 until 2021.

“Mayor DePena was elected to be a leader for the City of Lawrence. He was looked up to and trusted by his constituents, but he betrayed that trust through his alleged corruption and lies,” said United States Attorney Leah B. Foley. “Today’s arrest is just another example of our determination to root out fraud by anyone, even public officials and holding elected officials accountable.”

“Today’s arrest highlights IRS CI’s continued commitment to safeguarding emergency relief programs and holding accountable those who abuse them,” said Thomas Demeo, Special Agent in Charge of the Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation, Boston Field Office. “CARES Act funds were created to help small businesses survive an unprecedented national crisis — not to bankroll personal debts, political ambitions, or real estate ventures. IRS Criminal Investigation remains committed to protecting taxpayer dollars, pursuing those who exploit federal relief funds, and ensuring that financial integrity is upheld at every step.”

“Today, the FBI arrested Mayor Brian Depena for allegedly cashing in on a public health crisis and blatantly defrauding a government program meant to keep businesses afloat during the pandemic. It’s alleged the Mayor fraudulently obtained over $1.5 million in small business loans which he then used as his own slush fund to pay his personal taxes, fund his mayoral campaign, and pay off $883,000 in high-interest mortgages on several properties he owned. This was emergency financial assistance meant to be a safety net for struggling businesses, not Mr. Depena’s own personal ATM,” said Ted E. Docks, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI’s Boston Division. “When elected officials misuse federal funds for personal gain, they’re breaking the trust of their constituents – and breaking the law. Together, with our partners, the FBI will continue to doggedly pursue anyone who defrauds the federal government. You’ll be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, and that ‘easy money’ won’t seem so easy after all.”

According to the charging documents, in 2020 and 2021, Depena applied for Economic Injury Disaster Loans (“EIDL”) for Tenares Tire Services Inc., a tire sales and automotive services business he owned in Lawrence. During COVID, the U.S. Small Business Administration offered taxpayer-funded EIDLs to eligible small businesses experiencing substantial financial disruptions due to the pandemic. The interest rate on EIDLs was 3.75%, and the loan use was limited. A business could only use EIDL proceeds as working capital to alleviate economic injury caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Working capital did not include funding a political campaign, paying personal taxes, or paying off mortgages.

Depena allegedly caused Tenares Tire to apply for and obtain an EIDL in the amount of $150,000 in June 2020 and then used the majority of those funds as working capital for the business. However, according to the charging documents, Depena needed cash by early 2021. It is alleged that his mayoral campaign was struggling to pay bills, he owed the IRS for back taxes and he owed almost $900,000 to two private, hard money lenders who were charging Depena 12% and 8% interest – significantly more than the EIDL rate of 3.75% – on loans that encumbered various properties Depena owned in Lawrence.

In April 2021, Depena allegedly caused a request for an increase of the Tenares Tire EIDL. On July 14, 2021, the SBA approved an increase of the loan by $350,000, bringing the total Tenares Tire EIDL to $500,000. However, the SBA did not release the funds for another month. While waiting, Depena allegedly sent the following texts (originally in Spanish, here translated to English) to his accountant and financial advisor, who had been assisting Depena with the EIDL application and modification.

According to the charging documents, the $350,000 in EIDL funds were electronically deposited into the Tenares Tire bank account on Aug. 16, 2021. The pre-deposit balance in the account was only $20.23. Shortly thereafter, Depena allegedly paid $85,000 of the EIDL funds to the IRS to pay off personal tax debts. He also allegedly transferred $120,000 of the EIDL funds to a personal account and used that money to write checks totaling $90,000 to “The Committee to Elect Brian Depena.” It is alleged that these checks were deposited in the Depena mayoral campaign account, and characterized as loans to the campaign, in September and October 2021.

While the hard money, high-interest loans were still outstanding, and while his campaign continued to struggle financially, Depena allegedly caused a request for a second EIDL modification in October 2021. On Oct. 27, 2021, the SBA approved a modification that would increase the loan by $1,154,400, bringing the total Tenares Tire EIDL to $1,654,400.

On Nov. 30, 2021, $1,154,188 in EIDL funds were electronically deposited in the Tenares Tire account and Depena allegedly transferred the entire amount to one of his personal accounts – which had a balance of only $1,401 – the same day. It is alleged that Depena allegedly used $42,112.96 of the EIDL funds for his mayoral campaign, writing checks to the campaign for $10,000 and $32,112.96. The first check was deposited in the campaign account on Dec. 2, 2021, when the account allegedly had been overdrawn for approximately 20 days.

Finally, it is alleged that Depena used $883,293 of the EIDL funds to pay off his debts to the hard money lenders. On Dec. 9, 2021, Depena bought a $538,109.03 treasurer’s check and used it to pay off one of the loans. On Dec. 18, 2021, he bought a $345,184.13 treasurer’s check and used it to pay off the other loan.

According to the charging documents, as of Aug. 5, 2026, Depena had made only 16 payments on the Tenares Tire EIDL. The outstanding principal balance was approximately $1,654,420.

August 14, 2026 – Ex-ABC News correspondent claims network overhauled his COVID lab leak report after sending copy to Fauci

Ex-ABC News correspondent Terry Moran made an explosive claim this week about his former employer and how it allegedly overhauled a report he led on the COVID lab leak theory after running it first by Dr. Anthony Fauci.

In an interview published Friday by “The Fifth Column” podcast, Moran recalled a time he said he felt the “heavy hand of censorship” at the Disney-owned network.

Moran said in early 2021, he had seen discussions from “smart and serious” people online floating the possibility that COVID had leaked from a lab and that ABC’s “Nightline” allowed him to pursue a story about the theory.

Moran recalled talking to various scientists and Trump administration officials in a piece that he said did not make any conclusive claims but nevertheless “laid it out.”

“We broke a little news that that lab had been funded by the Chinese military, despite the ‘Bat Lady’ [Chinese virologist Shi Zhengli] saying no, it hadn’t… And we kind of laid it out,” Moran said. “And at the end of the day, my own personal feeling was, you know, it’s probably a little bit more likely it’s natural. But if you told me it had leaked from the lab, fine. It’s probably not cooked up. It’s probably not a ‘Frankenvirus.’”

“And the day that it’s supposed to air, it gets reviewed, and it comes back to me, and it is incomprehensible,” Moran continued. “And I had never been angrier. I’m in the booth–”

August 15, 2026 – Trump unloads on “treasonists” behind WH ballroom lawsuit — Says preservation group exposed ”top secret” military details

President Donald Trump dropped the hammer Saturday on the private preservation group trying to stop construction at the White House, branding its leaders “TREASONISTS” and accusing them of exposing sensitive military information tied to the protection of the President.

The National Trust for Historic Preservation, a privately funded activist outfit that pretends to be a government agency, filed a lawsuit to halt the East Wing modernization and ballroom project.

In the process, they exposed top-secret military features of the project to America’s enemies around the globe. They were warned. They were shown the plans.

The United States Military and Secret Service told them the facility was vital to the safety of the President and every future President. They did it anyway.

Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton warned in a declaration cited in the administration’s new Supreme Court filing that the project is critical to securing meetings of the President, senior government officials, and other gatherings vital to American interests.

“The Project is critical for ensuring that the White House can serve as a secure location for the gathering of the President, gathering of senior government officials, and gatherings that further the interests of the United States.”

August 15, 2026 – FBI agents confront Eric Swalwell at San Francisco Airport and seize his electronics as part of sexual misconduct investigation

Credit: The Associated Press)

FBI agents confronted Eric Swalwell with a search warrant when he landed at San Francisco Airport Saturday and seized the former congressman’s electronic devices, including his cell phone, as part of a federal criminal investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct, the Daily Mail can exclusively reveal.

The agents, armed with additional court-approved search warrants, then entered his house in Washington, DC, on Sunday, seizing additional undisclosed potential evidence, well-placed sources tell the Daily Mail.

Sources say the former representative started his day Saturday in Washington, where he still maintains a residence with his wife and three children.

He headed to the airport later in the day and flew to his home state of California. The feds were waiting for him when he stepped off the plane.

According to sources, Swalwell was cooperative.

The following day, neither he nor his wife, Brittany Watts, was home when the feds rolled up to their property in Northeast DC.

Swalwell, 45, faces multiple sexual assault allegations.

At least four women have made sexual misconduct allegations, including a former staffer who claimed the married politician raped her twice when she was too intoxicated to consent in 2019 and 2024. (Read more: Daily Mail, 8/20/2026)  (Archive)

THE PARTY OF FRAUD AND CORRUPTION

August 17, 2026 – Newly released FBI memos show former congressman Eric Swalwell received illegal donations from Chinese spy Fang Fang

A curtain is about to be pulled back.

The entire seamy world of foreign influence operations that the shadow government DELIBERATELY SET UP around our US Congress.

The Transnational Crime Syndicate wants it’s foreign based operatives that work inside of/around the US Congress, the US Executive Branch, and the US federal courts to have easy access.

The best way to HIDE the ‘influence operations’ targeting key members of your US Congress is to make sure your shadow government operatives embedded inside of the DOJ/FBI/IC keep a LID on anything that goes awry as all that sex happens, all that bribery changes hands, the deals get done, the foreign interns are inserted, etc.

And the American people pay the bill for all of it.

Never underestimate the awesome power of a hostile takeover of the Executive Branch, when Team Patriot takes control of the FBI/DOJ/IC away from the shadow government, and starts SHOWING YOU all the stuff that shadow government was ‘containing’.

The FBI was recruiting Fang to be a confidential informant through an undercover agent, assigned her the code name Rusty Thumbs, planned to hire her through a cutout company and was still evaluating her suitability as a confidential human source when they discovered her alleged criminal behavior.

(…)

The FBI knew early on during the recruitment that Fang was tied to China’s Ministry of State Security (MSS), Beijing’s notorious intelligence service. The bureau also identified her parents as MSS agents, knew she was raising money for California Democrats and was willing to use sex as a means of getting ahead in politics.

FBI had evidence that Swalwell got illegal donations from a suspected Chinese spy, bombshell memos show

The newly declassified investigation files also show that the FBI had initially tried to recruit the infamous Fang Fang as a source who could share information on Chinese influence operations targeting public officials in the United States.

INSIDE BASEBALL: She was a double agent who may have, in turn, recruited Swalwell.

August 17, 2026 – Bernie Sanders and DSA are part of a global communist network called the “Progressive International,”; it was created by the Sanders Institute

Massive news! Bernie Sanders, the squad, and DSA are part of a global communist network created by the Sanders Institute. And this global communist network is called, Progressive International.

Off and on, Bernie has been a part of his “wives” Sanders institute. And he participates quite often in it. But this doesn’t matter, because the DSA is involved too. So this includes Mamdani and nearly everyone else too.

Let’s first give you a list of some of the fellows involved in the Sanders Institute:

– Yanis Varoufakis, founder of DiEM25 and General Secretary of. And is former Syriza MP and Finance Minister and Greek Marxist (he joined the Communist Society at the University of Essex) and Croatian Marxist Srećko Horvat, whose 2017 book Subversion! was praised by Noam Chomsky and the rest of the usual Marxoid chorus.
– Jane sanders
– AOC
– Pramila jayapal
– Bill Mckibbon
– Rho Khanna
– Abdul El-Sayed
– Robert Reich
– Harry Belfonte
– Cornel West
– Ben Jealous, executive dir Sierra club
– plus more

Board

– Danny Glover, United Nations
– Etc

Drumroll.

🔥 DiEM25 teams up with The Sanders Institute to launch the Progressive International. (Founder of Diem25 was Yanis Varoufakis.)

Progressive International is a heck of an org. But let’s start with a small sampling of their partners first. It’s a communist mess, and someone is helping to run those in a comparison chart for me.

Partners:

– Code pink (Roy Singham Chinese network)
– Democratic Socialists of America (DSA)
– Palestinian youth movement
(This is 100% Hamas and Iran)
– Sunrise movement (uses children)
– Luchemos
-Brand workers
– Coalition for Revolution
– Momentum (Trump resistance trainer and was trained by Serbian otpor founder)
-Plus tons more, and the list is overwhelming.

Now Diem25 is involved in a political party called MeRA25. MeRA25 was founded in March 2018 by former Greek Minister of Finance Yanis Varoufakis. (Who is a Marxist). Its main campus is in Brussels. But they are located in Greece, Germany, Italy, Sweden and the Netherlands.

And if you recall, Marxist and former Syriza MP, Yanis Varoufakis, is part of the Sanders Institute also.😏

Progressive International doesn’t hide their communism.

“For Building the Future, a research collection on contemporary socialist construction, we look at the Communist Party Marxist – Kenya — a project to build a vanguard party equipped to lead the Kenyan people towards socialism.”

Progressive International is a communist and terrorist mess. Including having Cuba events and delegates. (Cuba is an enemy by the way.)

“On 27 January, the Progressive International will convene scholars, diplomats, parliamentarians, and policymakers from across the world for the Havana Congress on the New International Economic Order (NIEO).”

“The Progressive International inaugurated a new global process to answer these questions. It began in New York in Dec 2022 alongside UN ambassadors from around the world. Now, it heads to Havana, upon an invitation from the Cuban authorities to continue this dialogue at the V International Conference For World Balance.”

They also tout communist Chinas rule and without elections.

“The Chinese model demonstrates that democracy need not be confined to periodic electoral exercises or formal procedural rights divorced from material conditions.”

“The transformation of Minzhu Village — one of thousands of cases across China — provides a concrete illustration of how “whole-process people’s democracy” operates as a reality for China’s 1.4 billion people.”

They also have the People’s Academy where they quote Lenin. (See photo)

“Engage in the fundamental analytical methodology of Marxism, gaining clarity on political economy, philosophy and class struggle, in particular from the perspective of the Global South.”

“You will be guided by movement leaders and leading scholars of contemporary Marxist thought.”

There are hundreds of .is archives. I think they are under DOJ investigation.

Ok break over. Yeah the Global Berners and Marxists are after the right.

🔹DiEM25 teams up with The Sanders Institute to launch the Progressive International

DiEM25 is teaming up with The Sanders Institute to launch the Progressive International, a movement that will mobilise people around the world behind a shared vision of democracy, prosperity, sustainability, and solidarity.

The announcement will take place at The Sanders Institute Gathering in Burlington, Vermont (November 29 – December 1), which will bring together an array of activists, thinkers and politicians to discuss pressing issues like climate change, workers rights, and healthcare.

DiEM25’s Yanis Varoufakis will participate in an international roundtable with Bernie Sanders (Vermont Senator), Niki Ashton (Member of Canadian Parliament), and David McWilliams (Irish author and economist) that will discuss the need for international cooperation in an age of rising authoritarianism.

Following the roundtable discussion, Sanders Institute Founder and Fellow Jane Sanders will join Yanis Varoufakis in issuing an ‘Open Call’ to progressives around the world, inviting individuals and organisations to join as signatories.

A Bernie Institute member is key:

♦️The Mamdani-DSA Comrades: São Paulo Forum Terrorists, Progressive International Communists

“Progressive International
The Progressive International was launched in 2020 by the Sanders Institute and the Democracy in Europe Movement 2025 (DiEM25). As one might guess, the eponymous institute was founded by Bernie. DiEM25 is the creation of Yanis Varoufakis, a Greek Marxist (he joined the Communist Society at the University of Essex) and Croatian Marxist Srećko Horvat, whose 2017 book Subversion! was praised by Noam Chomsky and the rest of the usual Marxoid chorus. (For more on the Progressive International, see Loudon’s Keywiki entry.)”

On 27 January, the Progressive International will convene scholars, diplomats, parliamentarians, and policymakers from across the world for the Havana Congress on the New International Economic Order.

The Progressive International inaugurated a new global process to answer these questions. It began in New York in Dec 2022 alongside UN ambassadors from around the world. Now, it heads to Havana, upon an invitation from the Cuban authorities to continue this dialogue at the V International Conference For World Balance.

“It is critical for progressive forces from around the world to challenge the old order. We believe that the Progressive International’s Congress is well-positioned to help thinkers and leaders from across the Global South shape a common vision and build a strategy to win the policies and proposals necessary for a new, just world order,” said Dr. Héctor Hernández Pardo, Executive Coordinator of the Conference.

Read.. Bernie is propagating global communism.

“For Building the Future, a research collection on contemporary socialist construction, we look at the Communist Party Marxist – Kenya — a project to build a vanguard party equipped to lead the Kenyan people towards socialism.”

In the Marxist tradition, the vanguard party is an indispensable vehicle in the struggle for liberation. In a world structured by imperialism, democracy is severely constrained, especially in the global periphery. It serves, primarily, the interests of imperial powers and those national elites who work on their behalf. These social relations not only determine the daily lives of billions of people but also maintain a tight grip on the spheres of politics, culture, education, and information. For the most part, elections offer a choice between political parties that are all, in various ways, committed to the preservation of capitalism. In this context, workers, peasants and the urban poor are forced to align with political horizons established by their oppressors, which do not fundamentally challenge the social relations imposed by capitalism and imperialism.

That is why the oppressed need a political vehicle that can represent them as a class. This is the role of the revolutionary party, which seeks to develop, advance and carry the aspirations of working and oppressed people on the road towards socialism.

Why is a revolutionary party needed? In The Communist Manifesto, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels wrote that capitalism “creates its own gravediggers”. The concentration of capital in the hands of one class also creates a working class, which is the creator of all wealth in society. This class, Marx and Engels showed, can seize the means of production and redirect profit towards bettering human life. But this process does not arise spontaneously. Workers initially experience their exploitation individually rather than collectively, and ruling class ideology permeates society, making collective organisation difficult. The revolutionary party serves as the vehicle to overcome these limitations, concentrating working class experience; engaging, developing and sharing revolutionary theory; and providing strategic direction to class struggle.

The 1917 October Revolution provided a testing ground. Vladimir Lenin showed that the working class, limited to trade union activism, which tended to focus narrowly on questions of wages and working hours, did not on its own develop broader demands for political representation. It was not aware of its capacity to govern an entire state. It required a party of professional revolutionaries to introduce socialist consciousness into the labor movement, to help it organize, and to help it realize its mission of seizing state power. In this way, the revolutionary party becomes the concentrated expression of class consciousness, the institution that transforms the working class from a “class in itself” (an objective economic category) to a “class for itself” (a conscious political actor and an agent in history). This mission cannot be brought about by an NGO, a debating club, or a hollow electoral vehicle. It demands a party grounded in historical experience, rooted among the people, and reinforced by theory.”

https://archive.is/m3Ze3o

Bernie’s Progressive International – No need for elections. And Communist China does things better. And capitalist republicans and democrats alternating is not only bad, but corrupt because communists don’t get a turn.

“The Chinese model demonstrates that democracy need not be confined to periodic electoral exercises or formal procedural rights divorced from material conditions. ”

“The approach fundamentally challenges the prevailing narratives in the West about the Chinese government’s lack of democracy and popular legitimacy — suggesting, instead, that the Chinese democratic process is in many ways more responsive and more participatory than Western models of liberal democracy.”

“In the US, for instance, power is passed back and forth between two establishment parties, both of which are explicitly pro-capitalist and committed to the interests of the capitalist class. Third parties — including socialist parties — are effectively frozen out of the national political process; they face serious obstacles when it comes to getting on ballots and securing airtime in official political debates. What is more, elites and corporations can spend unlimited money on campaign finance, to promote and install politicians who will shape policy to their benefit, in what can only be described as institutionalized political corruption. Democracy is meaningless under these conditions.”

Even going to Cuba is illegal for Americans, let alone working with them. Sanders, Progressive International, held events there for nearly a week.

There’s a bunch of American speakers on this list, I couldn’t fit in photos of all of them.

“From 28 April to 1 May 2024, the National Capitol of Cuba will host the 50th Anniversary Congress on the New International Economic Order.

The Congress — co-convened by the Progressive International and the Asociación Nacional de Economistas y Contadores de Cuba — will bring the world’s leading scholars, diplomats, and policymakers to Havana for three days of intense discussion, deliberation, and preparation of a Program of Action to secure peace through sovereign development in the twenty-first century.”

Is Bernie Bros in hot water? Marco Rubio is sanctioning a Cuban front group, ICAP, that works with Bernie and Jane Sanders Progressive International. Such Cuban front groups are used to radicalize Americans.

The Cuban Institute of Friendship with the Peoples (ICAP) and the Progressive International collaborated to organize the “Nuestra América Convoy” to Havana in March 2026. Hasan Piker and Code Pink etc were there.

❗️What’s interesting is that Hasan Pikers friend, Abdul El-Sayed belongs to Progressive International.

Also recall that Jeremy Corbyn, Pramila Jayapal, and AOC etc belong too. As does the entire DSA.

♦️ Here’s a personal account:

March 2026: “In March, I travelled to Cuba with Jeremy Corbyn and Richard Burgon as part of the Nuestra América Convoy, joining more than 600 delegates from across the world delivering over 35 tonnes of humanitarian aid.

Organised by Progressive International, the convoy brought together activists, trade unionists, politicians and journalists from the United States, Latin America and Europe. The scale of that mobilisation – across continents, in a short space of time and under difficult logistics – was a significant achievement, matched on the ground by Cuban organisations, particularly ICAP (Cuba’s international friendship institute), who coordinated the programme under extremely challenging conditions.”

The Cuban regime has spent decades using front groups to infiltrate, corrupt, and radicalize Americans. Today, I’m sanctioning the leadership of ICAP, which is one of the primary organizations involved in these efforts—including convicted Cuban spy Fernando González Llort—and nine entities that sustain and fund the regime’s repressive apparatus.

Anyone supporting, sponsoring, or providing services to these sanctioned actors is at risk of being sanctioned themselves. Foreign banks and other companies that provide services to, or hold funds for, these entities should take immediate action to cease their support.

As I said, I feel that the communist colluding Sanders, squad, DSA, etc are currently under a DOJ investigation.

Today, ActBlue that Sanders, Progressive International, uses for small donations testified to Congress.

Today also ICAP that colludes with Sanders Progressive International was sanctioned. Everyone remembers that recent trip with Americans to Cuba.

Hasan Piker is friends with the director, David Adler, of Sanders Progressive international.

“What makes Progressive International so dangerous is that, by co-opting progressive values, it provides political legitimacy to authoritarian regimes with longstanding records of repression and gross human rights violations and whose purpose is to destroy the United States,” said Gelet Martinez Fragela, a Cuban American journalist based in Boca Raton, Florida.”

Zohran Mamdani’s calls for arrest of Netanyahu was thru collusion with foreign governments and terrorist orgs.

Bernie and Jane Sanders, Progressive International, thru its created org called The Hague Group, is working with; terrorists, and foreign governments.

Zoran Mamdani is in the DSA which is an official partner of Progressive International, correct? 😏 And so is just about everyone else in the communist left including the squad.

But recall, these folks are directly in the communist country colluding, Progressive International:

– Rho Khanna
– Abdul el-sayed
– AOC
– Pramila jayapal
– Bill Mckibbon
– Jeremy Corbyn
– Robert Reich

The Hague Group was created by Sanders, Progressive International.

Co-Chairs: Colombia (led by President Gustavo Petro) and South Africa (led by President Cyril Ramaphosa.

Because international courts lack an independent police force, The Hague Group acts as an enforcement mechanism. Guided by the UN Charter, member states have pledged to implement collective actions:

– Uphold the arrest warrants issued against Israeli officials by the International Criminal Court

– Prevent provision or transfer of arms, munitions and related equipment to Israel, where there is a clear risk that they might be used to violate international law;

– Prevent the docking of vessels at any of their ports where there is a risk of the vessel being used to carry military fuel and weaponry to Israel.

Americans colluding with foreign governments have already prevented the docking of ships thru the Progressive International, “No Harbors for Genocide”, program.

“International Activists Target Oil Tanker Supplying Military Fuel to Israel”

“The effort to (successfully) block the ship from docking is part of the No Harbour for Genocide campaign, which was launched by a coalition of groups including Progressive International, Disrupt Power, the Palestinian Institute for Public Diplomacy, Valero out of Corpus, the Arab Group for the Protection of Nature, and the BDS National Committee.”

🔹The Hague Group’s terror links exposed

On a webinar on 30 April, Executive Secretary (Hague Group) Varsha Gandikota-Nellutla said that The Hague Group, and its South Africa and Colombia co-chairs, are advised by “a variety of Palestinian organisations [sympathetic to Hamas]”, from “Al-Haq to Al-Shabaka, both based in Ramallah”, as reported by Jewish news site http://JNS.org. Gandikota-Nellutla went on to say that these groups have been present at “every single ministerial meeting”.

She said the groups have not been “formally” included in The Hague Group “because that’s precisely what would scare away the Europeans ‒ to see this as a radical campaign group, not as a diplomatic bloc”.

Gandikota-Nellutla’s comments were made during a webinar hosted by United Staff for Gaza, an organisation that consists of current and former United Nations (UN) staff members, who push for boycotts of Israel. She may have thought she was speaking confidentially. On the call, Andrew Gilmour, United Staff for Gaza Chair, told her “not to tell us anything that you would rather was not made public”.”

🔹Video by Progressive International and held at The Hague.

Here’s the complete video of Sanders Progressive International at The Hague in the Netherlands.

Here they announced the debut of Hague Group:

🔴 LIVE FROM THE HAGUE: States Coordinate Measures Against Israel’s Violations of International Law

Progressive International

“Today, nine nations convene in The Hague to discuss their shared commitment to upholding international law, responding to threats against the International Criminal Court and defending Palestinian rights.

Following the meeting, nations are set to form The Hague Group and announce coordinated legal, economic, and diplomatic measures to hold Israel accountable for its violations of international law, including its ongoing actions in Gaza.

Convened by the Progressive International, the meeting between state representatives of Belize, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Honduras, Malaysia, Namibia, Senegal and South Africa will explore collective action at both national and international levels to support Palestinian rights.”

August 18, 2026 – New court filing: Patrice Comey lied to the SS about when she googled James Comey’s alibi; claims it happened after he posted the “86” photo

BREAKING: In a new court filing, prosecutors suggest James Comey’s wife Patrice deliberately misled investigators by omitting the fact she texted her husband a possible alibi just two minutes before he posted his “86” threat against President Trump, in the form of a Google screenshot of a benign definition for “86.”

Federal investigators learned of her omission from search warrants to obtain iCloud data and Google search history related to the Comeys.

Former FBI Director Comey was fired by Trump in 2017 over the #RussiagateHoax he orchestrated. Patrice Comey and her daughters campaigned for Hillary Clinton in 2016 while her husband opened multiple unpredicated investigations against her GOP opponent.

I asked Grok:

I’m looking for this court filing. Can you help find it?

“In a new court filing, prosecutors suggest James Comey’s wife Patrice deliberately misled investigators by omitting the fact she texted her husband a possible alibi just two minutes before he posted his “86” threat against President Trump, in the form of a Google screenshot of a benign definition for “86.”

Key details from the filing

Prosecutors note that search warrants for iCloud/Apple data and Google search history showed Patrice Comey texted her husband a screenshot of a benign/restaurant definition of “86” (e.g., “to get rid of or refuse service” / item out of stock) at about 3:12 p.m. on May 15, 2025—two minutes before James Comey posted the “86 47” seashell photo on Instagram at 3:14 p.m.

In her short (unrecorded) May 17, 2025, Secret Service interview, she described googling the term after an acquaintance (“Person-1”) contacted her later that day about a possible violent interpretation, and she mentioned the restaurant meaning based on her prior work experience. The government states she did not mention the earlier pre-post search/text. The filing characterizes this as an omission of the pre-post Google screenshot/text (described in some secondary reporting as a possible “alibi”), while arguing the agent simply recited facts supporting the need to obtain the search history and that any implication of lying is the defense’s characterization. It maintains this does not justify a Franks hearing or suppression.

Where to find the full documents

These are public court records. The exact phrasing in the query closely matches recent secondary reporting/summaries (e.g., an X post by Paul Sperry on or about August 20, 2026) of the government’s arguments in these filings. Defense filings from late July 2026 had previously argued the opposite—that the warrant affidavits falsely implied Patrice Comey lied about the timing. (Read more: Grok, 8/20/2026)

August 18, 2026 – Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, owner of LA Times, raises alarms about the COVID-19 vaccines and the increase in cancers and deaths of children

Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, owner of the LA Times and a renowned transplant surgeon, is raising alarms about the fallout from mRNA COVID-19 vaccines and linking them to unprecedented deaths and cancers in CHILDREN!

“For the first time in my career, I’ve seen an 8-year-old, 9-year-old, and 10-year-old with colon cancer.”

“A 13-year-old child died of metastatic pancreatic cancer.”

He has thrown his support behind Robert F. Kennedy Jr., stating Kennedy “knows more about the science than most doctors.”

It’s heartbreaking to know and see that so much cancer could have been prevented DECADES ago now, by allowing us access to science and doctors who tried to speak out but were cancelled, censored, harassed and murdered!

August 18, 2026 – New court filing: A relative of James Comey sent blistering text to wife Patrice Comey for posting “call to violence” against President Trump

BREAKING: A new court exhibit reveals a relative of James Comey sent a blistering text to wife Patrice Comey lambasting them for posting “a call for violence” against President Trump, asserting: “I have held my tongue for a long time, but I just can’t do it anymore. You guys have really gone off the deep end over the years with your TDS. “86 47″ is a call for violence no matter how you spin it. You should be ashamed of yourselves. I am thoroughly embarrassed to have ever defended the absolute coward that is your husband. You and Jim are some of the least accepting, most hypocritical people I’ve had the displeasure of knowing. I hope Jim goes to jail for his crimes.”

August 18, 2026 – DSA communist Angie Nixon triumphs over historic loser Alexander Vindman in bid for the Senate

How confident was Vindman he would win tonight? He already planned a fundraising event August 23 in swanky Nantucket, of all places (that’s in Massachusetts, not Florida).

Vindman spent 16 times more in his primary than the winner, Angie Nixon, the New York Times reports.

Ouch.

Not to throw salt in Alex Vindman’s wounds, but let’s throw salt in Alex Vindman’s wounds.

Vindman was feted by Democrat elite donors all over the nation, outraising the eventual winner 16-to-1, according to the New York Times.

But this is the shocking number: Vindman spent a staggering 36 times more on ads than Nixon.

This is a historic loss, making Vindman a historic loser.

As predicted below, Trump couldn’t help but join in the fun.

“SleazeBag Vindman loses tonight to a Radical Left Lunatic,” he posted on Truth Social. “How cool is that?”

Indeed, Mr. President.

DSA radical Angie Nixon’s triumph over historic loser Alex Vindman could be a boon to other Florida Republicans running statewide and down the ballot, particularly in the handful of Republican districts diluted during redistricting to create other Republican-leaning districts to better represent the state’s growing Republican majority.

Here’s Nixon screaming in a bullhorn during a special legislative session to approve those new districts in April.

In a concession statement, Vindman thanked Florida, although it is unclear if he will continue living in the state he adopted as his own just several months ago. A return to the Washington suburbs may be more likely.

The historic loser also endorsed the DSA candidate who defeated him. What a legacy!

August 18, 2026 – An Anchorage, Alaska poll worker offers James O’Keefe the ballot of Senator Lisa Murkowski’s brother, and without an ID

BREAKING NEWS: O’Keefe Offered Senator Lisa Murkowski’s Brother Ballot at Alaskan Polling Location With No ID Required

Anchorage Polling Worker Also Offers Lisa Murkowski’s State Director, Karina Waller’s Ballot Without ID on August 18th, Primary Election Day

Murkowski Opposes the SAVE Act, Arguing Voter Documentation Requirements Could Be Difficult for Rural Alaskans

Lisa Murkowski Calls For Prosecution of O’Keefe

I asked the poll worker, “Would it be possible to vote without it [ID]?” They confirmed, “Absolutely possible.”

“You can vote if you’d like to.” The poll workers reassured me that I would still be able to vote without having to show ID.

Poll workers stated, “We’re trying to figure this [voting system] out.”

On Election Day in Anchorage, Alaska, I entered a polling location and gave election workers the name Brian Murkowski, Sen. Lisa Murkowski’s brother. I repeatedly told them I did not have identification and asked whether Brian could still vote.

After finding Brian Murkowski’s name on the voter rolls, election workers told me I could vote without presenting ID and offered me a question ballot, telling me it was “Absolutely possible” to vote without ID and later, “You can vote if you’d like to.”

Under Title 15 of the Alaska Statutes, a question ballot can be issued when a voter cannot provide sufficient identification. The voter fills out the ballot in the same manner as other voters, but the ballot is placed in an envelope and subject to further review. When the ballot box is opened, the envelope is segregated, counted, compared with the voting list, and delivered to the election officials responsible for reviewing the ballot.

I did NOT check in as Brian Murkowski, cast a ballot, or sign his name. We documented what happened when I gave his name, said I had no ID, and asked whether Brian could still vote.

At another Anchorage polling location, a member of my team used the name Karina Waller, Sen. Murkowski’s state director, and said she did not have identification. The worker confirmed they were at the correct polling place and offered the question ballot option after the person said they did not have ID.

Sen. Murkowski remains opposed to the SAVE Act, citing concerns that its voter documentation requirements could disenfranchise or alienate voters in rural parts of Alaska and create logistical challenges for some voters.

OMG went to Alaska to expose what happens when someone shows up at the polls without identification and gives the name of someone already on the voter rolls.

OMG has reached out for comment to Brian Murkowski, Lisa Murkowski, and Karina Waller.

August 18, 2026 – Ballot-Box Jihad — Islamic networks are weaponizing elections to conquer America from within

Elections Are Their War. Jihad Is Their Vote.

The new jihad is at the ballot box.

Islamic networks flipped the script. Voting is no longer haram – it’s pure Islamic conquest.

Mosques turned into polling stations. Massive Islamic get-out-the-vote machines run by the Islamic community. Templates shared nationwide. They’re mobilizing every Muslim voter while most Americans stay home.

Razor-thin wins in PA, Texas, Michigan, Virginia, New York. Islamic candidates who prioritize Islam and reject American values are sliding into office on low turnout.

This is Islam conquering America by ballot.

Wake up.

Show up in November. Or lose the country to Islam.

August 18, 2026 – A confidential informant in the Michigan Secretary of State’s office shares evidence the state automatically registers non-citizens to vote

Barry County Sheriff Dar Leaf just released this video press statement.**

A confidential informant who works for the Michigan Secretary of State’s office came to him with evidence that the state’s CARS (Customer and Automotive Record System) is programmed to automatically register non-citizens to vote when they change their address. The system even congratulates them and notifies them that they are now registered.

When the informant showed this to her supervisor, the response was that the county clerk would catch the non-citizenship status and remove them.

Sheriff Leaf says that is not true. County clerks only get access to the Qualified Voter File *after* the Secretary of State has already registered the person. The QVF itself does not contain a citizenship status field.

Once someone is on the roll they can request a mail-in ballot or vote in person with their state ID. Poll workers do not verify citizenship.

Leaf’s office has referred the matter to the U.S. Department of Justice as a possible conspiracy to violate 18 U.S.C. § 611 (voting by aliens) and to place non-citizens on both the voter rolls and jury pools. He is also asking the Michigan Legislature to act immediately to stop it.

He is encouraging anyone with additional evidence to contact his office or their local sheriff.

August 18, 2026 – Fauci’s senior advisor Dr. David Morens, pleads guilty to “conspiracy to commit offenses and to defraud the United States”

Today, Fauci’s Senior Advisor Dr. David Morens plead guilty to “Conspiracy to Commit Offenses and to Defraud the United States” in connection with his conspiring with Peter Daszak, President of EcoHealth Alliance, Dr Gerald Keusch, associate director at Boston University’s National Emerging Infectious Disease Laboratory Institute and a recipient of funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), together with others to defraud the public about NIH-funded gain-of-function research and the origin of COVID.

Peter Daszak (Credit: public domain)

Morens and others plotted to conceal/destroy federal records re: COVID-19 and federal grants to avoid FOIA and the Federal Record Act.  Morens admits to using his gmail account to intentionally defraud the U.S. government and conceal communication and records about his activities.  In addition, Morens admits to receiving “gifts” of material value in exchange for his efforts on behalf of the co-conspirators.

The conspiracy involved a “kickback” scheme in which Morens accepted and was promised gifts – including bottles of wine and meals at Michelin-starred restaurants – in exchange for performing “official acts that were favorable” to his co-conspirators.

VIA CBS – Washington — A former senior adviser at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases has pleaded guilty to a charge stemming from a scheme to hide federal records during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Under a deal reached with federal prosecutors in Maryland, David Morens, 78, agreed to plead guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit offenses and to defraud the United States. He faces up to five years in prison.

Morens, a senior adviser at NIAID’s Office of the Director from 2006 to 2022, was indicted in April and charged with five counts for what prosecutors said at the time was his role in a scheme to defraud the U.S. by shielding federal records related to the COVID-19 pandemic from the public.

Tim Belevetz, a lawyer for Morens, said, “By pleading guilty today, Dr. Morens has taken responsibility for what he did and will continue to do so.”

Prosecutors said Morens worked with two co-conspirators. The first, “co-conspirator 1,” served as the president and CEO of a New York-based nonprofit that received a grant in 2014 titled “Understanding the Risk of Bat Coronavirus Emergence.” The Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan, China, received a subaward from the New York group on the coronavirus grant, prosecutors said, though the National Institutes of Health terminated the award in April 2020 following allegations that COVID-19 emerged from the lab. The NIAID is part of the NIH.

The second co-conspirator was described in charging documents as a physician, scientist and professor who worked for an academic institute that received federal grants.

Emails made public by the GOP-led Select Committee on the Coronavirus Pandemic indicate that the New York-based nonprofit is the EcoHealth Alliance and co-conspirator 1 is its president, Peter Daszak.

The indictment stemmed from several Freedom of Information Act requests NIAID received between April 2020 and December 2022 that sought communications between Morens, the New York-based nonprofit and its president. (read more)

August 19, 2026 – ActBlue co-founder pleads Fifth Amendment in closed-door House GOP grilling

Matt DeBergalis (Credit: InfluenceWatch)

ActBlue co-founder Matt DeBergalis pleaded the Fifth Amendment during his closed-door deposition before three key House committees, sources familiar with the matter told Fox News Digital.

The Committee on House Administration, House Oversight Committee, and House Judiciary Committee are conducting a joint investigation into ActBlue, a massive fundraising platform for Democrats, over allegations that lax fraud prevention standards may have allowed foreign donations to seep into U.S. campaigns.

DeBergalis’ deposition, which was scheduled for Thursday morning, lasted less than half an hour. Fox News saw DeBergalis entering and exiting the committee room within roughly 25 minutes.

(…)

The Committee on House Administration, which has jurisdiction over U.S. election laws, first opened a probe into ActBlue in 2023. Chairman Bryan Steil, R-Wis., accused the group of potentially accepting foreign or fraudulent donations for not requiring a credit card CVV number for contributions.

ActBlue has since updated its donation requirements with a CVV mandate. (Read more: Fox News, 8/20/2026)  (Archive)

August 20, 2026 – Jocelyn Benson’s SOS worked with SPLC on Michigan public school DEI and voter registration efforts, called it ‘food assistance’

Revelations continue to trickle out regarding Secretary of State and 2026 gubernatorial candidate Jocelyn Benson’s long relationship with the disgraced Southern Poverty Law Center that cast doubt on her claim that her SPLC board membership was “mostly ceremonial” and that she ended her relationship with the organization in 2019.

In fact, SPLC tax filings between 2018 and 2024 reveal the group was heavily involved in funding its own Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion education programs in Michigan public schools. The SPLC grants to state schools for its Learning for Justice DEI program amounted to approximately $91,000 between 2018 and 2024. Michigan’s nine grant recipients from the SPLC, currently facing federal indictments, included Carmen-Ainsworth in Flint (three separate years), Adrian, Muskegon Heights, César Chávez Academy, U-M’s regents, Plymouth-Canton, and Grand Haven.

Additionally, the Michigan Department of State under Benson’s leadership, named an SPLC high school voting initiative an official partner in the MI Vote Matters High School Voter Registration Challenge, which focused on registering or preregistering eligible voters in 92 schools throughout the state. The SPLC provided a $50,000 grant in the fiscal year ending October 31, 2020 to When We All Vote, an initiative within Civic Nation, an official partner in the SOS effort that state records report resulted in 2,252 student registrations during the 2022 program.

Perhaps most alarming about the grant was the SPLC mislabeling it as “food assistance,” which set off red flags undergirding the current federal investigations of the organization.

As Michigan Secretary of State officially in charge of the state’s election process, Benson is essentially overseeing her own election in November. She resigned from the SPLC board in 2019, the year she assumed office as SOS. She told Detroit PBS in 2015 she was “very proud” of her work on the SPLC board, but has since scrubbed references to the nonprofit from her campaign website.

The Midwesterner previously reported that Benson maintained a working relationship with SPLC after 2019, when she cohosted a National Association of Secretaries of State tour of historical sites and the SPLC offices in Alabama. The trip was funded by the progressive Center for Secure and Modern Elections, the SPLC, the Ford Foundation, and the Democracy Fund only months after Benson told SPLC leadership she was stepping down.

 

(…)

Benson has been persistently hesitant to explain her SPLC ties after her board resignation.

Former Michigan Attorney General Mike Cox in April submitted a public information request for Benson’s communications with the SPLC, and the Secretary of State responded a $10,309.94 fee and estimated delay of up to 10 weeks to produce the documents.

Cox paid an upfront deposit of more than $5,000, but was forced to file a lawsuit to compel Benson to release the documents 11 weeks later. Cox wants the Michigan Court of Claims to order the Secretary of State to immediately release any records related to the SLPC to inform voters ahead of the 2026 midterm election.

“There’s only two options: either Jocelyn Benson knew about the SPLC’s funding of hate groups like Nazis and the KKK or she was completely asleep at the wheel of this organization she bragged about overseeing,” Cox said when he filed suit last month. “Neither answer is acceptable for someone running to be Governor of Michigan.” (Read more: The Midwesterner, 8/20/2026)  (Archive)

PICK A CRIME: That’s the choice Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson handed to my client, a township clerk. I laid it out this morning on @wjrradio with @kevincdietz.

Delete them? Face up to 1 year of imprisonment under federal law. Refuse? Up to 90 days imprisonment under Michigan law. Every path carries a penalty aimed at my client personally. For trying to follow the law.

She asked the Secretary of State how to obey both. 37 days. NO ANSWER.

So we filed Wednesday. Thursday the Court ordered the records PRESERVED. The State has to respond by August 20.

ORDER ENTERED STOPPING DESTRUCTION: Less than 24 hours after we filed, the Michigan Court of Claims just ordered the August 4 election records PRESERVED, despite Michigan Secretary of State’s Jocelyn Benson’s voter record deletion rule.

The Court’s own words: defendants are DIRECTED to preserve “the electronic pollbook software and associated files” in a secure manner pending the resolution of this matter.

Translation: nothing gets deleted while a judge decides which law controls.

The Court also put the whole case on an expedited schedule. The State’s response is due August 20. Because, in the Court’s words, the deletion date “is fast approaching.”

That’s how fast this moved: filed Wednesday afternoon. Preservation order Thursday morning.

The records exist. They stay existing. And a court will answer the question my client asked the State 38 days ago.

August 20, 2026 – A Dearborn Michigan pastor accuses city leaders of operating under Sharia law

“America, we have lost this city.”

Pastor Lorenzo Sewell unloaded during a Dearborn, Michigan, city meeting, accusing the city of operating under Sharia law.

“This is a city that is no longer up under American laws; we are up under Sharia law. We will not have it anymore,” Sewell said. “Enough is enough.”

The outburst, which came amid a series of other anti-Islam protests in Dearborn, vocalizes fears that Muslim populations in Michigan are working to bring their communities more in line with their religious worldview, views Sewell believes are at odds with the vast majority of the country.

August 21, 2026 – Arizona AG Kris Mayes 2-year bribery investigation covers up for Gov. Katie Hobbs

Arizona AG Kris Mayes will not prosecute Gov. Katie Hobbs after a 2-year bribery investigation.

No evidence of quid pro quo found involving contractor Sunshine Residential Homes, which donated hundreds of thousands to Hobbs/Dems and later received major rate increases from the state.

Mayes: Timing raised questions, but no crime. Calls for legislative reform on contractor donation transparency.

$580,840 in political contributions.

Special treatment worth millions.

An alleged offer involving political influence.

And now, a second former DCS official backing up the account.

So why did Kris Mayes leave this out of her report clearing Katie Hobbs?

Watch yesterday’s press conference. It’s time to release the files.

One of their major donors, allegedly tried to bribe the head of DCS — he said NO, so Hobbs fired him

The donor gave Hobbs/Dems $550k

Then Hobbs increased the donor’s state contract by TENS OF MILLIONS

A second former DCS official, former Deputy Director Shalom Jacobs (who spent 23 years at the agency and left shortly after Hobbs took office), has now corroborated Faust’s account. Senate Republicans released her statement describing a November 2022 call in which Faust told her about Kottoor’s alleged offer and appeared “clearly shaken” by the conversation. kjzz.org

Attorney General Kris Mayes’ investigation concluded there was no evidence of a quid pro quo sufficient for bribery charges and did not highlight Faust’s allegation in its public report. House Republicans have criticized that omission and are conducting their own probe. (Grok, 9/4/2026)

The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) haven’t exactly been shy about their intentions for America should they ever gain majority power. They will destroy America’s founding documents, the Senate, the presidency and the Supreme Court. They want to undo our immigration laws, abolish our borders, end ICE, and put the kibosh on law enforcement.

Of course, they’re also aware that tens of millions of Americans own guns and that many of us will put up a resistance to the commie takeover of the U.S.A. That just means the DSA is promising the revolution will be bloody and violent, as they usually are.

“We have seen that the Democratic Party establishment that we have has to be ripped out,” said Michael Beyer, a DSA activist and streamer. “We can actually start to grab hold of the ship of state and steer it in our direction, but it’s going to be a, you know, violent process.”

Oliver Larkin, who is running for Congress in Florida’s 25th Congressional District, added, “Our country needs to change and this Democratic Party needs to change. I was more than glad to go on Hasan’s stream. This is we need, as Democrats, we need to go into these spaces.”

They’re not even hiding it.

August 24, 2026 – Former CDC researcher whose studies were used to debunk ‘vaccine-autism’ link, will plead guilty to wire fraud and money laundering

Poul Thorsen, a researcher whose work was used to reassure millions of parents that vaccines do not cause autism, is expected to plead guilty to fraud on Sept. 1.

Thorsen worked on major studies examining vaccines and autism that were cited by the CDC and became part of the scientific foundation used to dismiss concerns about a possible connection.

He was later accused by federal prosecutors of stealing more than $1 million in CDC grant money intended for research, using fabricated documents and fraudulent invoices to divert the funds for his own use.

For years, we’ve been told not to question the science on vaccines and autism. We were told the evidence was overwhelming and the people conducting the research could be trusted.

When the integrity of the people producing that science comes into question, so should our willingness to accept their conclusions without scrutiny.

Poul Thorsen, a Danish researcher who was one of the U.S. Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General’s top ten most wanted fugitives, was arraigned today on federal wire fraud and money laundering charges after his extradition from Germany.

“Poul Thorsen allegedly stole more than $1 million in federal grant money by submitting fabricated invoices and diverting funds to his personal bank accounts,” said U.S. Attorney Theodore S. Hertzberg. “International fugitives who think they can avoid responsibility for serious federal crimes by living overseas are wrong. Due to the unwavering persistence of my office and our law enforcement partners, Thorsen has been extradited to the United States and will face justice in federal court.”

“Thorsen is alleged to have diverted more than a million dollars designated for critical public health and autism research. These funds were entrusted to advance scientific understanding and support children and families; instead, these tax dollars were exploited for personal gain, a serious breach of law and profound betrayal of public trust,” said Kelly Blackmon, Special Agent in Charge with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Inspector General. “Thorsen’s extradition reinforces a core principle: individuals who are accused in an indictment of defrauding the American people and misusing federally funded research will be pursued wherever they flee. HHS-OIG, alongside our law enforcement partners, remain committed to safeguarding the integrity of federal programs and ensuring that those who steal from the public are held accountable.”

According to U.S. Attorney Hertzberg, the charges, and other information presented in court: From 2000 to 2009, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Division of Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities, awarded over $11 million to two governmental agencies in Denmark to study the relationship between autism and exposure to vaccines, between cerebral palsy and infection during pregnancy, and between childhood development and fetal alcohol exposure. In 2002, Thorsen, who had worked as a visiting scientist at the CDC when it was soliciting the grant applications, became responsible for administering the research money awarded by the CDC.

Thorsen allegedly stole more than $1 million of the CDC grant money by submitting fraudulent documents to the Danish government, Aarhus University, and a Danish hospital where scientists performed research under the grant. From February 2004 through June 2008, Thorsen allegedly submitted over a dozen fraudulent invoices, containing the forged signature of a CDC laboratory section chief, that falsely claimed a CDC laboratory had performed work and was owed grant money. Based on these invoices, Aarhus University transferred hundreds of thousands of dollars to CDC Federal Credit Union accounts the university believed belonged to the CDC. In truth, the credit union accounts were personal accounts held by Thorsen. After the money was transferred, Thorsen allegedly withdrew the fraudulent proceeds for his own use, obtaining cashier’s checks and buying a home in Atlanta, a Harley Davidson motorcycle, and Audi and Honda vehicles.

A federal magistrate judge issued an arrest warrant after a grand jury in Atlanta indicted Thorsen on April 13, 2011, but Thorsen evaded apprehension for nearly 14 years by remaining in Denmark. On June 4, 2025, Thorsen, 65, was arrested in Passau, Germany, pursuant to an INTERPOL Red Notice based on the April 2011 arrest warrant.

Earlier this year, Germany agreed to extradite Thorsen to face trial on two counts of wire fraud and nine counts of money laundering. On May 7, 2026, Thorsen was flown to the United States in federal custody. He was arraigned today before U.S. Magistrate Judge J. Elizabeth McBath and will be held without bail pending further proceedings.

This case is being investigated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General.  The Justice Department’s Office of International Affairs secured the arrest and extradition of Thorsen from Germany.

Members of the public are reminded that the indictment only contains charges.  The defendant is presumed innocent of the charges, and it will be the government’s burden to prove the defendant’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt at trial.

August 24, 2026 – Three Secret Service officials are walked out of their offices as part of a criminal investigation into media leaks

@RCPolitics EXCLUSIVE and BREAKING: Three Secret Service officials/agents were walked out of their offices on Monday and made “do not admits” as part of a criminal investigation into leaked classified information to the media, according to two sources familiar with the matter.

It’s unclear if the leaks to the media pertained to the controversy over President Trump’s secret evacuation from Turkey because of intelligence about a surface-to-air missile threat to Air Force One from Iran.

The FBI and the CIA are involved in the investigation, one source told RCP.

Calls to Secret Service Communications Director Anthony Guglielmi were not immediately returned.

An email to the Secret Service press office also was not immediately returned.

DEVELOPING…

Yes, my sources said Secret Service spokesman/Communications Director Anthony Guglielmi was one of the three placed on admin leave as part of the FBI/CIA media leak probe.

Anthony Guglielmi (Credit: public domain)

The other two were also USSS officials in media-related positions.

As you recall, Guglielmi direct tweeted me the day after Butler that I was “very wrong” about Jill Biden’s Pittsburgh event the same night getting higher level security assets than Trump got at Butler and more post-standing positions.

A week later, an investigation by Sen. @ChuckGrassley proved my reporting correct.

August 24, 2026 – SCOTUS allows Trump to move forward with order imposing restrictions on mail-in voting; Marc Elias melts down

Loading Viewer...

Oh how things have changed.

Marc Elias used to be “feared” in the courtroom when it came to election lawsuits.
He has been the democrats champion for stealing elections for decades.

Then Trump became president and he flipped the courts.

Marc Elias no longer has a majority of leftwing judges to help him change election laws in the courtroom and ignore federal law.
He is limited in the number of leftwing judges that he can shop for to bring lawsuits.
And clearly, this judge is not very smart.

Elias thought the judge could put a stop to the USPS setting new rules for mail in ballots.

That didn’t happen.

Elias is on a huge losing streak now and it shows.
He’s panicked.
He used to win these cases with ease.
He thought that he could “prevent” the USPS from implementing the new mail in ballots rules because of his lawsuit.

Trump called his bluff and so did the USPS.

“Elias publicly criticized the USPS for “caving to Trump” by finalizing the rule despite existing court injunctions.”

The “court injunctions” were supposed to stop and delay everything.

The USPS didn’t “wait” for a FINAL court decision to FINALIZE the new rules.

They aren’t going to delay things because of Elias.

These “court injunctions” couldn’t stop them and now the Supreme Court has told the leftwing judge that she overstepped her boundaries.

Here’s a great observation by @shipwreckedcrew on what the Supreme Court majority said in this decision.

“The point is that the Executive branch can suffer “irreparable harm” at the hands of district judges who meddle and interfere with Executive branch operations at the very beginning of Executive branch activity such as that involved here.”

“The three liberals response to that was “Well, what the Executive was about to do is patently illegal so interfering right at the start is justified.”

“But the Majority disagreed — whether the proposed conduct would ultimately be illegal is a question for another day.”

https://x.com/shipwreckedcrew/status/2092327985231929827?s=46&t=i-EHntqLXsNF65QcOaZA6w

The Supreme Court majority is slapping down district judges for doing “irreparable harm” to the Executive Branch in their operations.

It’s a separation of powers.

The USPS is part of the Executive Branch.

Marc Elias and a leftwing district judge, don’t get to tell the USPS how to do their job.

This is all coming down to Trump’s Executive Order, that Elias says is illegal.

The Supreme Court said that will be decided in the near future.

And that’s what Elias really fears.

He knows that Trump’s Executive Order is just enforcing “existing federal laws” against non citizens voting.

Elias knows that the Supreme Court majority will approve of this move on mail in ballots and that’s why he’s bashing the Supreme Court’s decision.

They aren’t delaying the implementation of the new mail in ballot rules, they’re speeding them up before the midterms.

Elias knows that the democrats can’t win without mail in ballot fraud.

Their entire election fraud system is based on fraudulent mail in ballots and fraudulent registrations.

The PLAN was ALWAYS to flip the courts and cement federal law as safeguards for future elections.

The democrats were FORCED to file lawsuits that they were never going to win.

Trump is following the law and enforcing laws that have NEVER been fully enforced.
The Supreme Court majority is backing him.

August 25, 2026 – Philadelphia DA Larry Krasner discusses blowing up WH ballroom and keeping piece as a souvenir

Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner appeared to suggest blowing up the White House Ballroom while delivering remarks on Tuesday.

Krasner attended the 24th annual slavery commemoration at President George Washington’s Home in Old City, according to NBC 10 Philadelphia. He proposed blowing up the ballroom during the same event.

“There will not be a ballroom. There will not be a ballroom. There will not be a Kennedy Center renamed for a fool. That will not be happening. What is going to be happening is that in about 10 to 15 years, we are all going to be sitting here with smiles on our faces, because we will have won. They will have lost.”

“And I’m going to have a paper weight sitting on my desk. And do you know what that paper weight’s going to be? It’s going to be a piece of the ballroom after we all blow it up. That’s what it’s going to be,” he said.

Krasner said the White House ballroom would be blown up in an official ceremony, with pieces of the rubble being sold as paperweights, and the money used to fund the ballroom being returned to the taxpayers.

In addition, Krasner referred to President Donald Trump as a “pain in the ass” and “the embodiment of hate, the embodiment of ignorance, and the embodiment of depriving people of their vote and education.”

August 26, 2026 – Canada pulls out of trade deal with America; Two Canadian Premiers call it a disastrous policy decision

Cut or tariff Canada’s oil exports to the US? Horrible idea.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith does a fantastic jobs breaking it down:

“I cannot think of a more disastrous policy decision than cutting off or taxing Alberta’s oil to the United States.”

> US will respond with a 50%–100% tariff on fuels supplied to Ontario and Quebec.
> US refineries would replace Alberta heavy crude with Venezuelan oil, cutting Canada off as a supplier permanently.
> At least 500,000 jobs would be wiped out across Alberta, Ontario, and Quebec.
> Retaliatory US cuts to gasoline and diesel exports would leave eastern Canada stranded without fuel right as fall and winter begin.
> Canada has no reserves to supply Ontario and Quebec.
> The Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) would nose-dive, devastating Canadian investments, and pensions.

What most Canadians don’t seem to realize is that the current oil prices is generating substantial taxes for governments that softens the blow of the tariffs, and big portion of it comes from the US.

August 26, 2026 – Justice Department shuts down two hacking platforms operated by a Chinese state-sponsored group that breached sensitive U.S. institutions

They Hacked the Fed, the Senate, and the Department of Justice

On August 26, the Justice Department announced it had seized and shut down two hacking platforms operated by a Chinese state-sponsored group that breached some of the most sensitive institutions in the United States government.

The victims: NASA. The Federal Reserve. The Department of Energy. The Department of Justice. The Department of Health and Human Services. The National Institutes of Health. The United States Senate.

Not private companies. Not defense contractors. The actual institutions that run the country.

The group is called QTFY. It’s employed by a company called Nanjing Xinjiuwei Network Technology, based in China. It built two platforms QScan and QTRouter that worked together. QScan automatically infected thousands of internet-connected devices around the world. QTRouter chained those infected devices into a network that disguised where the attacks were actually coming from. The hacking looked like it was coming from local devices. It was coming from China.

The customers: the PRC’s Ministry of State Security and the People’s Liberation Army. Both of China’s intelligence services, buying hacking-as-a-service from a private Chinese company. State-sponsored hacking, outsourced to a contractor.

This had been running since at least 2018. Eight years of operations before the FBI shut it down.

The court-authorized seizures made both platforms inoperable. The domains were hard-coded into the malware seize the domains, kill the tools.

Attorney General Blanche called it “the latest in a series of technical operations to dismantle indiscriminate hacking activities sponsored by the People’s Republic of China.”

He said the latest. Because this is the fourth year in a row.

In 2023, the FBI disrupted a botnet used by the Chinese group Volt Typhoon to hide its exploitation of U.S. critical infrastructure. In 2024, the FBI disabled a botnet of hundreds of thousands of infected devices run by the Chinese group Flax Typhoon. In 2025, the FBI removed surveillance malware from over 4,000 U.S. computers after they’d been infected by the Chinese group Mustang Panda.

2023. 2024. 2025. 2026. Four consecutive years of court-authorized takedowns against Chinese cyber infrastructure targeting the United States. A new group. A new platform. A new disruption. Every single year.

Now hold two things in your mind at the same time.

The People’s Liberation Army one of the two customers buying these hacking services is simultaneously being gutted from the inside. Over 100 senior PLA officers have been purged since 2022. Sixty percent of the military’s representatives on China’s anti-corruption commission didn’t show up to the last meeting. The head of the military’s internal discipline body was removed. Three officers who attended a meeting in January vanished before August.

The same military that’s buying hacking tools to breach the U.S. Senate is losing its own officers by the dozen. The PLA is running offensive cyber operations against American government infrastructure while its own leadership is being purged at a rate that has no precedent in modern Chinese history.

And the Federal Reserve one of the confirmed victims of this eight-year hacking campaign is the same institution that has been systematically excluded from the new American financial architecture. The Fed wasn’t invited to rewrite bank lending rules. The Fed is banned from issuing a digital dollar. The Fed doesn’t appear in any stablecoin licensing framework. The Fed Chair volunteered to give balance sheet authority back to Treasury before he was even confirmed.

The Fed is being routed around in the new system. And it was being hacked in the old one.

The Department of Justice another confirmed victim is the same department that just stood up a 500-prosecutor National Fraud Enforcement Division with sanctions evasion in its mandate. DOJ was breached by the same Chinese state apparatus it’s now building the capacity to prosecute.

FBI Director Patel said the bureau is “surging efforts to shape adversary behavior and defend the homeland in cyberspace.”

Four years. Four takedowns. Four different Chinese groups. And the target list includes the institutions that make American laws, set American interest rates, and enforce American justice.

They weren’t hacking random companies. They were hacking the architecture.

Timelines. Patterns. The general’s words, not mine. All I did was read the receipts.

I am the guy on the couch, and you have been debriefed.

Timing is everything.

Remember what happened yesterday?

AG Blanche announced that they had “seized” the servers and domains of a major Chinese “hacker” group that was infecting major infrastructure involving “national security.”

Then DHS announces this today:

“The Homeland Security Department will require random audits of paper ballots in the midterm elections, citing long-simmering concern that the nation’s largest voting technology companies use Chinese parts in their voting machines, according to a letter from Secretary Markwayne Mullin released Thursday.”

“Mullin sent the letter to the White House Transparency Task Force earlier this week outlining the dangers posed by Chinese components in American voting machines and the way that these components could be exploited by hackers or other malicious actors.”

Chinese components in VOTING MACHINES can be exploited by Chinese “hackers.”

Are you seeing the table being set?

The EVIDENCE is being declassified and laid out before the American people, PROVING that our entire election system is ALREADY compromised.

It’s a “national security” issue and Trump is ALREADY making the case to the American people.

Leading right up to the moment, where they PROVE the 2020 election was stolen and Trump declares a “national emergency.”

A declaration that will require ALL the “safeguards” for our elections, that Trump has been talking about since his first term.

The groundwork is being laid and the people prepared for what’s coming.

Everything will change.

A stolen election will lead to the prosecution phase as those responsible are held accountable.

And there is a possibility that the midterms don’t happen as scheduled.

There’s also a possibility that the military “helps” oversee the election, in order to make sure all the new “safeguards” are implemented.

The case against the fraudulent election system is building on a daily basis now.

Overwhelming evidence that will get the backing of the Supreme Court majority, when Trump declares a “national emergency.”

The president has plenary authority over “national security.”

He will use that Constitutional authority to take control of the election system and protect the Constitutional right of the American citizens to vote for their representatives.

We will not certify another unconstitutional election.

August 26, 2026 – A new report reveals Obamacare enrollment of ineligible people cost US taxpayers $65 billion in 2024

Improper enrollment across Affordable Care Act exchanges cost American taxpayers billions of dollars in 2024, according to a Paragon Health Institute analysis released Wednesday.

Combining Paragon’s previous estimates of improper exchange enrollment and Medicaid expansion enrollment suggests that 14.3 million individuals enrolled in these programs in 2024, or 34% of total ACA enrollees, were actually ineligible, according to the report. The analysis also projects that improper enrollment across the two ACA programs cost the federal government approximately $65 billion in 2024.

Moreover, improper exchange enrollment rose by over 26% from 2024 to 2025, up to an estimated 6.5 million total enrollees, according to Paragon.

“The combined $65 billion cost shows that improper enrollment is not a trivial administrative error,” Paragon’s report states. “It is the predictable result of programs that reward enrollment while weakening incentives to verify eligibility. Until policymakers change those incentives, improper enrollment will persist in both the ACA exchanges and Medicaid expansion.”

A separate Paragon study released in June claimed that almost 27% of all ACA exchange sign-ups were improper in 2026. It also projects taxpayers will pay up to $25 billion in improper subsidies this year, nearly a quarter of total projected ACA subsidy spending for the year.

August 26, 2026 – Pentagon: ‘Highly relevant’ documents on Afghanistan withdrawal were ‘stashed and hidden in safes’

A Pentagon review panel examining the Biden administration’s disastrous 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan says it has recovered highly relevant classified documents that were allegedly “stashed and hidden away in safes” where investigators would not find them.

War Department spokesman Sean Parnell, who leads the Afghanistan Withdrawal Special Review Panel, announced the discovery in a video message.

The statement was released around the fifth anniversary of the Abbey Gate bombing at Kabul’s Hamid Karzai International Airport.

That suicide attack, carried out by an ISIS-K terrorist, killed 13 U.S. service members and roughly 170 Afghan civilians during the chaotic evacuation.

“The deeper we look, the more there is to look at. We are finding things that we did not expect,” Parnell said.

“Recently, my team recovered highly relevant classified documents, material that should have been disclosed, stashed and hidden away in safes where they would not be found.”

“And after the team reviewed these documents, it became clear why someone tried to hide them.”

Panel Reviewing Millions of Documents

Parnell did not reveal what the recovered records contain, where exactly they were found, or who was responsible for storing them.

He also did not say whether the documents would eventually be declassified or released publicly.

The special review panel was established under War Secretary Pete Hegseth to examine decisions made before and during the August 2021 withdrawal.

According to Parnell, the investigation has included interviews with military officials involved in planning and carrying out the operation, along with a review of approximately 9 million documents.

The panel is examining the broader collapse of the U.S.-backed Afghan government, the abandonment of facilities including Bagram Air Base, and the chaotic evacuation from Kabul.

‘We Are Following the Evidence’

Parnell said the investigation would not settle for a sanitized account of what happened.

“They are owed the full picture of how and why those decisions were made, and we’re going to give it to them,” he said, referring to the service members who participated in the withdrawal.

“I’m not going to give you a convenient version of the truth, nor will I give you a rushed one.”

“Here is my commitment. We are following the evidence to wherever it leads and to whoever it touches.”

Parnell added that the panel would not accept “incomplete or comfortable answers.”

Earlier Review Accused of Over-Classification

The current investigation follows previous after-action reviews conducted by the Pentagon and other federal agencies.

Some of those materials remain classified.

Parnell has previously criticized an earlier probe as having been “over-classified at the highest levels,” arguing that the classification decisions kept critical information away from public scrutiny.

The newly discovered documents could intensify those concerns if investigators determine that relevant records were deliberately kept from prior reviewers.

Questions Remain Over Who Hid the Records

The 2021 withdrawal followed the U.S.-Taliban agreement reached in 2020 and the Biden administration’s decision to complete the military exit.

The result was a rapid Taliban takeover, the collapse of the Afghan government, and a desperate evacuation operation at Kabul airport.

The Abbey Gate bombing became the deadliest single moment of the withdrawal for U.S. forces.

Five years later, the Pentagon’s latest review is now raising fresh questions over whether important evidence about how the withdrawal was planned and executed was concealed inside the department.

Parnell has not yet identified who allegedly hid the records.

But according to Parnell, the panel believes the documents were placed where investigators would not find them, and that their contents explain why.

Pentagon: ‘Highly Relevant’ Documents on Afghanistan Withdrawal Were ‘Stashed and Hidden in Safes’

March 8, 2023

Emotional testimony from Sgt. Vargas-Andrews on suicide bombing outside of Kabul airport: “I opened my eyes to marines dead or unconscious lying around me…The withdrawal was a catastrophe in my opinion. There was an inexcusable lack of accountability. and negligence.”

August 27, 2026 – Trump admin set to target George Soros nonprofit, Southern Poverty Law Center and CAIR in major tax crackdown

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and the IRS could revoke the tax-free status of left-wing nonprofits such as George Soros’ Open Society Foundations, the Southern Poverty Law Center, and the Council on American-Islamic Relations, three sources familiar with the matter have told The Post.

It is part of a Trump-backed crackdown on “bogus” charities, and Treasury officials are drawing up a sweeping audit of outfits deemed to be using and abusing Uncle Sam’s tax code, the three people briefed on the Treasury Department’s internal policy deliberations said.

Bessent’s inner circle is drafting a blueprint that could ultimately strip non-compliant organizations of their 501(c)(3) status, according to two of the people familiar with the plans. The reviews could result in massive back payments and civil penalties, the same sources said.

The initiative leans in part on a 2025 executive order signed by President Donald Trump targeting nonprofits operating with a “substantial illegal purpose,” paving the way for the IRS to issue fines or even strip the tax-exempt status of charities allegedly tied to political violence, protests or radical ideologies.

Officials have also scrutinized a number of anti-corporate and labor-aligned advocacy groups that could end up on the blacklist, including the Private Equity Stakeholder Project, the anti-Amazon Athena Coalition, left-leaning watchdog MediaJustice, and the Strategic Organizing Center alongside its parent union, the SEIU, according to the three insiders briefed on the matter.

August 27, 2026 – Europe’s Digital Euro is coming in 2029; America has temporarily blocked a central bank type digital currency (CBDC) like China has

The European Central Bank is moving ahead with the digital euro and expects to begin a 12-month pilot during the second half of 2027. Thirty-six banks and payment providers have already been selected to participate, legislation is expected to be completed by the end of 2026, and the ECB intends to be ready for a potential first issuance during 2029. Brussels is spending approximately €1.3 billion to prepare the system, with projected operating costs of €320 million annually beginning in 2029, while pretending the final decision has not already been politically engineered.

The ECB insists the digital euro will never be “programmable money,” but in the same breath admits that it will facilitate “conditional payments.” This is the word game they always play. Programmable money is defined narrowly as currency restricted by where, when, or with whom it may be spent. Conditional payments, meanwhile, occur automatically only after predefined conditions have been satisfied. Brussels claims these are completely different concepts because the condition is attached to the payment service rather than the currency itself. To the person whose transaction is blocked until the system approves it, that distinction is meaningless.

The first examples sound harmless. A customer orders a product online, the money is reserved, and payment is released after delivery. Funds could be transferred according to milestones, pay-per-use arrangements, or other automated terms. That may offer convenience and reduce fraud, but the infrastructure does not possess morality. A system capable of withholding a payment until a commercial condition is satisfied can also withhold it until a regulatory, tax, identity, geographic, or political condition is satisfied. The technology only executes the rules written by those who control it.

The ECB also says the digital euro will complement rather than replace cash, just as every government program begins as voluntary before the alternatives are slowly made inconvenient, expensive, or unacceptable. (Read more: Armstrong Economics, 8/27/2026) (Archive)

Yes. A U.S. central bank digital currency (CBDC, or “digital dollar” issued by the Federal Reserve) is currently banned. President Trump signed Executive Order 14178 in January 2025 prohibiting federal agencies from establishing, issuing, or promoting a CBDC and requiring any related plans to be terminated. In July 2026 this was strengthened by statute.

The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act (enacted July 11, 2026) amended the Federal Reserve Act to bar the Fed from issuing or creating a CBDC or any “substantially similar” digital asset, whether directly or through banks or other intermediaries, through December 31, 2030. After that date the Fed would still need explicit new authorization from Congress. Private stablecoins are carved out.

There was never an active retail CBDC project; the Fed had only done research and limited pilots. Current Fed leadership and the Treasury have also publicly opposed one. The ban is temporary, and some wholesale/tokenization research (such as participation in Project Agorá) has continued in limited form, but a publicly available retail CBDC for everyday use is prohibited.

The CBDC ban that became law was temporary (through the end of 2030) because a permanent ban could not get through the Senate on its own, so lawmakers used a compromise version as a rider on a popular bipartisan housing bill.

A permanent ban bill has been introduced but has not become law. The current prohibition can be renewed, allowed to expire, or changed by future Congresses and administrations. (h/t X22 Report)

August 27, 2026 – The mistress of ex-FBI special agent who investigated Trump-Russia collusion is found dead in her Florida home

The alleged mistress of the ex-FBI special agent who investigated Trump-Russia collusion was found dead in her Florida home, her family said on Facebook.

Allison Guerriero, 52, was found dead in her Boynton Beach, Florida, home last Thursday evening after firing off a flurry of mysterious X posts.

“I turned in two time convicted traitor, former head of Counterintelligence for FBI, Charles McGonigal. I’ve been sick with illnesses and injuries for 8 years,” Guerriero’s X bio reads.

Guerriero posted 75 X posts last Thursday before she was found dead in her home later that night.

AS A MATTER OF PUBLIC CONCERN – Anyone who ever witnessed Charles McGonigal and me together should NOT hop into the comments because I never told anyone what I suspected because I was attempting not to fuck over the people who were loyal to me and helped me. Don’t create a witness out of yourself now.

She’s discovered what I’m saying all along that Bob will listen to be a a not a household name. the first MOST important person involved in the investigation was also a WITNESS and PARTCIPITANT in every area of mine and Charles’s life. . Just let her do it. I don’t care what she says about me. I just want to get my information out there. Have somebody investigate Doug Leff! Why does HE get to have the final say?

Now THIS the exhale after praying rosaries every day, Saint Jude Novena’s, embarrassing myself, and humiliating myself on social media, so people will pay attention to me, and somebody will start paying attention to all the names you do not know and never heard regarding the Charles McGonigal Matter.

A fellow American who treasures her First Amendment Rights to shittalk whoever the fuck she wants named Jackie Singh who is equally conniving as I am met that mentally disabled (and please know Tony really doesn’t know anything it will always “create a witness” if I were ever to discuss anything that I observed firsthand and documented during the course before during and after the period of time when I was romantically involved with Charles McGonigal.

I don’t really give a shit if Jackie wants to demean me God gave her that right to do that. Who am I to supersede Him? Is that the whole point of the entire constitution that is by the way only four pages long if you fucking read it!

Start looking for names you never heard of. #ConnectTheDots

According to The Daily Mail, Guerriero’s father said the circumstances surrounding his daughter’s death are still a mystery.

“We really don’t know yet. We’re waiting to get access to the autopsy report. I believe they’re going to issue a death certificate within the next day so we can get her home and have her put to rest,” William Guerriero told The Daily Mail.

“It could have been an accident. She could have slipped. It could have been anything. We’re waiting for the death certificate so we know what happened,” he said.

Boynton Beach police do not believe foul play was involved. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 8/31/2026) (Archive)

(Timeline editor’s note: I looked up Jackie Singh and found she published a very long piece about McGonigal and Guerrier shortly before she died. She was far more than just Mcgonigal’s mistress.) 

August 28, 2026 – Trump is quietly reinforcing America’s infrastructure in several sectors

Something massive is moving beneath the surface…

Oil is shifting closer to home, borders have been shut down, the grid is being hardened, military bases are being given power that cannot be easily cut, communications are moving into space and the industrial backbone underneath all of it is being rebuilt at the same time alliances begin rearranging across the world…

None of this feels isolated anymore… it feels like pressure building across every layer of importance, as if the country is being quietly reinforced before a moment that will demand far more resilience than normal conditions ever would…

You can feel the old dependencies being stripped away while something much stronger takes their place… once you see the whole pattern together, it hits differently…

Check out my thoughts on this below…
(…)
Give me a couple minutes of your time… something has been bouncing around in my head for the past couple weeks… I keep seeing signals, then larger signals, then these signals converge… etc…

Then just now, it hit me… I thought… holy smokes… is Trump hardening America or what? Then BQQM…

A thread… 🧵 9 short posts that end with 2 videos and a map that shows it all… buckle up…

At some point the individual headlines stop mattering on their own and you have to look at the architecture forming underneath them, because Trump is no longer just rebuilding sectors… he is systematically removing the points where America can be cut off, shut down, starved of resources, disconnected, infiltrated or forced back into dependence on the very systems he has spent the last decade trying to unwind… why?

Start with energy because everything else sits on top of it… the administration is negotiating around Venezuelan fields holding roughly 90 billion barrels of oil, including assets previously tied to Chinese interests, while Trump simultaneously moves to secure the American power grid against foreign vulnerabilities and Project Janus begins pushing hardened nuclear microreactors directly onto military installations… why?

That is strategic depth being built from both directions… oil gives America fuel, industrial capacity, logistics depth and far less exposure to foreign chokepoints, while microreactors begin removing the civilian grid as a single point of failure for command, communications, weapons systems and military deployment… more…

Holy smokes… Trump is prepping hard… I mean really hard…

He is pulling massive oil reserves closer to the American sphere while hardening the military infrastructure that would have to keep operating if the global system takes a serious hit…

The oil matters because everything runs through energy… industry, transport, logistics, military movement, supply chains and the ability to keep the country functioning without being strangled by foreign chokepoints…

Then Project Janus moves the bases themselves off the weakest part of that system by giving them hardened nuclear power that can keep command, communications, logistics and deployment running even if the civilian grid goes dark…

Now put it together… strategic oil depth in the hemisphere, hardened power on military installations, manufacturing moving home, supply chains tightening and critical infrastructure being reinforced at the same time…

Trump is not building for stability… he is building for endurance… something big in on the horizon…

2/ Then look at what has been happening underneath the industrial layer… critical minerals are being pulled closer to home, domestic manufacturing is being rebuilt, shipbuilding is being expanded, the Navy is being recapitalized and foreign supply dependencies are being forced out of the systems that matter most when a country actually has to sustain itself under pressure… why?

Now look up… SpaceX and the Space Force are building a hardened communications and data layer above the battlefield, connecting sensors, command systems and weapons through space while Starshield and the larger military satellite architecture begin creating redundancy outside the old terrestrial communications grid… why?

Golden Dome fits directly into that same canopy… the country is being wired so information can still move, targets can still be tracked, commands can still be issued and forces can still operate even if traditional communications infrastructure is degraded…why?

…more…

3/ Then the cyber layer suddenly lights up… DOJ and FBI take down Chinese state linked infrastructure tied to attacks against NASA, the Federal Reserve, Energy, Justice, the Senate, health systems, defense contractors and critical infrastructure while DHS begins openly warning that Chinese components inside American voting equipment create national security vulnerabilities and federal election funding starts getting tied to physical paper ballot verification… why?

That is not one isolated Chinese threat… that is foreign access being pushed out of the political, cyber, infrastructure and communications layers at the same time the physical economy underneath them is being hardened… why?

…more…

4/ Now widen the aperture beyond America… Trump has spent nearly ten years building direct relationships with sovereign governments while weakening the old structures that kept countries dependent on transnational institutions, centralized financial systems and security arrangements they did not fully control… why?

The Middle East is reorganizing around new sovereign defense relationships, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan are building their own security architecture, Iran’s military capability has been hammered and its financial lifelines are under increasing pressure while Washington keeps squeezing the networks connecting Tehran back into China and the wider system supporting it… why?

The hemisphere is moving the same direction as Venezuelan energy, Panama, Colombia, Mexico and the wider regional security architecture get pulled tighter toward the United States while Chinese/Crown influence is pushed farther away from the strategic base surrounding America… …more…

5/ Then August 25 happens… CIA Director John Ratcliffe quietly flies into Moscow for an extraordinary intelligence meeting while the Vatican’s foreign policy chief is also in Moscow opening another channel with Russia… why?

That does not happen in a vacuum…whatever was discussed behind those doors, two completely different Western channels arrived at the same geopolitical pressure point while Trump was trying to keep another major front from exploding and Russia was increasingly directing its pressure toward London over Ukraine… why?

Put that beside everything else moving and the pattern becomes much harder to dismiss as coincidence… more…

6/ There is another layer underneath all of this… Trump spent years breaking the assumption that sovereign nations have to route power through institutions sitting above them…

He pulled America out of the WHO, rejected its pandemic framework, walked away from parts of the UN system, sanctioned the ICC and pushed NATO away from permanent U.S. dependency by forcing Europe to carry more of its own defense… why?

Then other countries started doing the same thing in their own way… Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan began building direct defense architecture outside the old global bodies… regional coalitions started forming around geography, trade, energy and security instead of waiting for the UN, NATO or Washington to organize them… why?

The financial layer is shifting too… Trump blocked a U.S. CBDC while countries elsewhere expand local currency settlement, bilateral payment systems and direct trade arrangements that reduce dependence on the old financial plumbing… why?

That is the deeper move… not isolation… sovereign nations dealing directly with sovereign nations… this equates to less power concentrated in global institutions… more power pushed back down into countries, then reconnected through direct alliances, trade corridors, defense pacts and regional coalitions… much like Trump is doing in this nation… power back to states… power back to the people…

That is a very different world system forming underneath the old one… more…

7/ Trump has spent years pulling countries closer, reducing chokepoints, securing resources, rebuilding industrial capacity, hardening the grid, moving military power off vulnerable infrastructure, pushing communications into space, tightening election security, ripping hostile cyber access out of critical systems and keeping direct channels open with Russia while new sovereign alliances form across the world… the “whys” point to patterns…

Then comes Dallas… Trump walks into the Republican convention on September 10, exactly one year after Charlie Kirk was assassinated, with the convention explicitly honoring Kirk’s legacy and the stakes of the coming midterms… one day before the 25th anniversary of 9/11… there are no coincidences…

I have no idea what form the next phase takes, and I am not going to manufacture a specific event just to make the pattern fit… if you followed me for a while you know, I am not a doomer, or someone that instill fear, and I don’t claim to have a crystal ball…

The posture of all this is telling me enough… something is being prepared for… more…

8/ Q drop 140 is impossible not to remember inside this arc because it asked, all the way back in November 2017, what the world would look like if Trump, Russia, China and other sovereign powers were coordinating against a much larger transnational structure while events unfolded on an enormous scale…

Whether every interpretation of Q was right was never the point for me… the point was learning to watch systems instead of headlines…

Nearly nine years later, energy, money, communications, intelligence, elections, military infrastructure, industrial capacity, strategic geography and sovereign alliances are all moving at once…

That is the signal… more…

9/ Sovereignty means nothing if you cannot power it, defend it, communicate across it, manufacture for it, secure its elections, move its military, control its resources and survive the shock of separating from the system that once controlled those dependencies…

Trump has been stripping those dependencies out one layer at a time… whatever battle is coming… political, financial, cyber, economic, military or some combination we still cannot see clearly… America is being positioned to absorb the hit and keep moving…

This is much bigger than oil… much bigger than Janus… much bigger than one election… the entire system is being hardened… why?

I don’t claim to know… but if we have learned anything over the past 10 years, Trump does nothing without a reason… he has secured our nation… he has made us safe within our borders… trust in what he has done and will do… we will get through this together…

Remember his promises (videos)… he has delivered and will continue to deliver…

God bless you, and God bless America…🙏 🇺🇸🙏

August 28, 2026 – The DOJ’s Weaponization Working Group releases report on FBI spy campaign against traditional Catholics

(Credit: DOJ Weaponization Working Group)

The ’s Weaponization Working Group released a bombshell report detailing how the Biden-era FBI expanded an investigation of one dangerous criminal suspect into a disturbing intelligence operation targeting Catholic priests, traditional Catholic churches and constitutionally protected religious beliefs.

The 231-page Richmond Domain Perspective Report concludes that personnel responsible for the disgraceful intelligence product have now been removed.

“The FBI personnel involved in the creation of the Richmond Catholic Memo have been terminated from their positions,” the report states.

The Justice Department did not publicly identify the terminated personnel.

The DOJ announced Thursday that investigators reviewed more than 1,800 pages of internal emails, intelligence assessments and investigative records concerning the FBI Richmond Field Office’s infamous January 2023 memorandum.

The report reveals that FBI personnel:

  • Opened investigative “Guardian” assessments on two Catholic priests.
  • Examined the priests’ travel and communications.
  • Pulled airline and credit-card information.
  • Searched one priest’s phone at Boston Logan International Airport.
  • Followed that priest from the airport to a private residence.
  • Conducted surveillance outside another residence associated with him.
  • Proposed cultivating Catholic clergy and church leaders as “tripwires” and sources.
  • Considered elevating the Richmond memo into a national intelligence product for senior FBI leadership.
  • Continued revising the project even after FBI headquarters ordered the original memo removed from bureau systems.

The FBI eventually closed both assessments after finding no national-security threat or evidence linking the priests to violent extremism.

“This Department of Justice will not tolerate a weaponized bureaucracy that chills First Amendment activity,”  said.

“The individuals who developed the Richmond Domain Perspective are no longer with the Department, and our Working Group’s efforts to investigate weaponization under the previous Administration will continue.”

August 28, 2026 – Fauci testimony and submitted documents reveal the CIA funded the gain-of-function research

JUST RELEASED: The official hearing record of Anthony Fauci’s “testimony” before my Committee—which ultimately led the Committee to hold him in contempt.

Beginning on page 96: previously unreleased documents I entered into the permanent congressional record, like this one showing CIA funds were transferred to Fauci’s NIAID.

Read them for yourself here:

An undated interagency agreement obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation confirms that Fauci’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases worked directly with the CIA on sensitive research involving viruses and biological threats.

The eight-page agreement shows that the CIA’s Biological Technology Center initiated a collaboration with NIAID involving “forensic microbiology” research for the intelligence community.

Fauci served as director of NIAID from 1984 until 2022.

According to the documents, the CIA planned to leverage existing civilian research programs at NIH to support intelligence-related biological research.

Unclassified NIH virus research would be used to “augment and complement” the CIA’s own research and development.

The CIA would even help Fauci’s agency obtain the pathogens needed for the research.

The arrangement also gave the spy agency control over what could be released publicly.

Although the resulting research was reportedly considered sensitive rather than classified, NIAID could not share the data without first receiving permission from the CIA.

In other words, Fauci’s supposedly civilian public-health institute was working alongside America’s premier spy agency on research involving dangerous biological agents, with the CIA controlling access to the findings. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 8/29/2026)  (Archive)

August 28, 2026 – Trump declares war on the foreign meatpacking monopoly and the high cost of meat

BREAKING: In a MASSVE move against the meatpacking monopoly, President Trump is hereby authorizing farmers and ranchers to DIRECTLY PROCESS their OWN FOOD

Trump is declaring WAR on artificially high meat prices! 🔥

“For years I have heard that they have had a tremendous problem with the Big Processors, who many say are a nasty Monopoly.”

“There are, essentially, 4 of them, a very non competitive number, and they make life miserable for our wonderful Farmers and Ranchers, and I can’t let that happen, can I?”

“So, in order to break this powerful monopoly, with much of its ownership based outside of the U.S., I am authorizing legal documents to be drawn in order to allow Farmers and Ranchers to be given the right to PROCESS THEIR OWN FOOD.”

“This should move quickly. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP”

TRUMP GOES ALL IN FOR AMERICA’S FARMERS! 🇺🇸🚜💥
President Trump just authorized legal documents so farmers and ranchers can PROCESS THEIR OWN FOOD — and smash the foreign-controlled meatpacking monopoly that’s been crushing them for years.
The Big 4 packers (Tyson, Cargill, JBS, National Beef) control 85% of the market. Trump says enough.
“I can’t let that happen, can I?”
This is America First in action. Ranchers first. Monopoly last.

August 28, 2026 – Iraqi national is placed on FBI Terror Watchlist; Rubio revokes her visa

Taif Sami Mohammed Al Shakarchi (Credit: public domain)

The U.S. government has not publicly disclosed the specific intelligence, evidence, or criteria that led to Taif Sami Mohammed Al Shakarchi’s placement on the FBI Terror Watch List. No criminal charges have been announced in connection with the designation. state.gov

The State Department announced on August 28, 2026, that it revoked her U.S. visa after the placement. Officials stated she was no longer in the United States at the time. A watchlist designation is an administrative/intelligence tool used for screening and travel restrictions; it is not equivalent to a conviction or public “Most Wanted” listing. iraqinews.com

Background and public allegations Al Shakarchi is a career Iraqi finance official who served as Minister of Finance from 2022 to mid-2026 (previously Deputy Minister and longtime budget director). In 2022 the Biden administration awarded her the International Women of Courage Award, describing her as an “Iron Woman” who fought budget corruption. en.wikipedia.org

In the year before the 2026 announcement, Republican members of Congress—including Reps. Joe Wilson (R-SC) and Greg Steube (R-FL)—publicly accused her of being a “key enabler of terrorist funding in Iraq” by facilitating terrorist financing through the country’s financial system. They urged sanctions. Reports have linked such concerns to broader U.S. scrutiny of Iraqi banks, U.S. dollar flows, and possible transfers involving Iran-backed groups. The State Department has not confirmed whether those allegations formed the basis of the watchlist decision. noticias.foxnews.com

Separately, Iraqi authorities summoned her in 2025–2026 as part of a domestic corruption investigation into former officials. U.S. sources have described the watchlist action as distinct from that probe. iraqinews.com

Al Shakarchi has denied the U.S. watchlist reports, the visa revocation characterization, and related claims, describing some coverage as politically motivated or unsubstantiated. shafaq.com

In short: the official “why” remains classified or unreleased. Public discussion centers on congressional allegations of terrorist-financing facilitation through Iraq’s financial system, occurring against a backdrop of her earlier U.S. recognition for anti-corruption work and later Iraqi corruption inquiries.

August 28, 2026 – Trump’s historic oil deal with Venezuela realigns global energy and puts OPEC, Canada on notice

President Donald Trump’s historic deal to secure rights to 65 billion barrels of Venezuelan oil not only doubles America’s energy reserves but also puts pressure on OPEC and Canada in the race for energy supremacy.

Trump announced the deal Friday night, saying it would not cost American taxpayers any money, and experts immediately predicted the move substantially realigns global energy in the favor of the United States.

“What I think you’re seeing is really, truly a long-term vision for how our country, the United States of America, wants to be the leader in the oil markets — American energy dominance. And this means getting out of this OPEC cartel. It means trying to free the world from the the craziness in the Middle East,” said Sam Romain, the chairman of Americans for Energy Dominance.

Romain said Trump’s announcement also exposed the silliness of a recent threat by Canada to stop sending crude oil to the United States over a trade dispute.

“Here’s how this trade works with Canada: they don’t have any refining capacity. They don’t have a strategic oil reserve,” he said. “They pull out of the ground a very thick, heavy crude oil, and we in the United States we have a very light suite, and we have to mix that together, blend it together.

“So they send 4 million barrels per day, but what they get in return is gasoline. And so if they want to shut down the crude pipeline, fine, go ahead. But you’re not going to get any gas, and so it’s it’s a paper tiger,” he added. (Read more: Just the News, 8/28/2026)

Trump is going heavy at Canada, but Canada is the pressure point… the CCP and Crown financial architecture behind Carney are the deeper targets…

Canada opened itself to Chinese vehicles, investment, energy and finance while expecting protected access to the American market… creating a northern gateway where CCP production could embed inside Canadian industry and move south under continental privilege…

Trump just slammed that gateway shut…

“Build in the U.S. and there are zero tariffs”…

That is the ultimatum, every corporation must choose between entering the sovereign American system or remaining outside with the global structure feeding through Canada…

Then he drives the break home…

“Canada will be treated like a State no longer” and “We don’t need Canada, they need us”…

Iran is being isolated through oil, shipping and financial channels… Canada is being hit through manufacturing, trade and market access… different terrain, same operation… same thing happened in Venezuela, only different…

Canada takes the pressure… the machinery behind it takes the damage… [THEY] are the target…

We know who [THEY] are… the CCP, the Crown’s offshore financial empire, central banks, intelligence cutouts, global institutions, multinational corporations, cartels, long-lived bloodlines… secret societies, and the captured political class protecting the machine from within…

Now watch how the machine is being choked… tariffs break its trade corridors… sanctions freeze its financial arteries… blockades sever its energy flows… intelligence operations expose its intermediaries… cartel strikes remove its enforcement arms… reshoring destroys its dependency model… sovereign alliances replace the institutions it controlled…

Venezuela shows the territorial layer being dismantled… cartels, ports, political command and China bound oil…

Iran shows the energy financial layer being strangled… shadow fleets, banks, insurers, traders and Chinese refineries…

Canada shows the institutional trade layer being forced into the open… Chinese transshipment, protected industries, resource controls and Crown financial plumbing…

Three live examples… one systemic operation unfolding worldwide… the choking operation is rather simple…

Cut the money… cut the energy… cut the trade routes… remove the internal gatekeepers… and [THEY] lose the machinery they used to capture nations…

August 29, 2026 – CA judge rules Rubio can’t deport foreign students who cheer Hamas and terrorize Jewish classmates

Biden Judge Noël Wise just spent 90 pages telling Secretary of State Marco Rubio he can’t yank a visa over “protected speech.”

Plaintiffs: the Stanford Daily and two of its international students.

She didn’t like that visas were getting pulled when noncitizens went after this government, Israel, or Charlie Kirk.

A visa is permission to be here. It is not citizenship.

The First Amendment is not a guest pass.

Deportation is immigration law, not censorship.

UPDATE: ONE BIDEN JUDGE just stepped in and ruled AGAINST Sec. Marco Rubio having noncitizen students deported if they advocate for Islamism and other anti-American ideology

Judge Noël Wise just said those students have to stay here under the 1st Amendment.

UNBELIEVABLE!

REMOVE FROM THE BENCH and DEPORT!

I know Marco will find a way to overcome this rogue judge like he’s done before.

Noncitizens who come here on a VISA are pure VISITORS and if we find out they lied on the visa to get here, DEPORT 👋🏻

Under 8 U.S.C. § 1201(i), the Secretary of State or a consular officer may revoke a visa “at any time, in his discretion.” The Supreme Court has treated these revocations as largely unreviewable discretionary decisions.

In practice the State Department uses this for:New derogatory information (criminal records, even arrests without conviction)

National security or public-safety concerns
Fraud or misrepresentation on the application
“Prudential” revocations based on intelligence or law-enforcement tips
The foreign-policy ground in INA § 237(a)(4)(C) — presence or activities the Secretary believes would have “potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences”

August 30, 2026 – State prosecutor blows whistle on NY AG Letitia James’ office, says he was ordered to “find crimes” committed by Trump despite zero evidence

A federal prosecutor blew the whistle on New York Attorney General Letitia James’ office and said he was ordered to “find crimes” committed by President Trump and people affiliated with Trump – despite zero evidence.

AG bureau chief Shamiso Maswoswe  (Credit: Facebook)

According to the Times Union, Assistant Attorney General Daniel Wiesenfeld sent an agency-wide email to thousands of employees in the New York Attorney General’s office claiming his supervisor, Shamiso Maswoswe instructed him to target “Trump himself, Truth Social, Hewlett Packard (DOJ approved merger) … without having a credible reason for targeting this organizations and individuals.”

The Times Union obtained the email that was sent out on Friday. The email was immediately deleted and wiped from the office’s servers.

Daniel Wiesenfeld wrote a follow-up email after his original message was deleted.

“If you believe Trump is using (Department of Justice) attorneys to prosecute his enemies and further his political interests, you should find it equally troubling that Tish (James) is doing exactly the same thing,” Wiesenfeld wrote, according to the Times Union.

“I ask that you not serve as Tish’s personal attorneys by targeting her political enemies. Instead, I hope you choose to prosecute crimes and find the individuals accountable, rather than targeting individuals and then finding crimes,” he wrote.

The Times Union reported:

A prosecutor in the New York attorney general’s office sent an agency-wide email to hundreds of colleagues Friday claiming that he had been instructed by his supervisor “to find and pursue crimes committed by specific individuals and organizations affiliated with Donald Trump,” according to a copy of the email obtained by the Times Union.

Kumiki Gibson

The prosecutor, who was assigned to the Investor Protection Bureau, alleged in his email that his bureau chief, Shamiso Maswoswe, had directed him to target “Trump himself, , Hewlett Packard (DOJ approved merger) … without having a credible reason for targeting this organizations and individuals.”

The email sent early Friday by Assistant Attorney General Daniel Wiesenfeld, who officials said has worked for the attorney general’s office for about two years, was quickly deleted from the office’s servers and vanished from the inboxes of more than 2,000 employees. A follow-up agency-wide email subsequently sent by Attorney General Letitia James’ general counsel, Kumiki Gibson, informed employees that it was an “internal” matter and that no one in the office was “in danger,” according to three people familiar with the communication.

Letitia James previously sued President Trump and tried to secure a $400 million+ judgment against him and seize his assets, even though no victim was identified. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 8/30/2026)  (Archive)

August 30, 2026 – Congresswoman Claudia Tenney speaks of a memo sent by Susan Rice re the challenges of getting illegal aliens to vote “in the Belt”

Here it is:

A memo sent by Susan Rice to the entire federal government on how to teach the 20+ million illegal aliens they imported to vote in U.S. elections.

Susan Rice:
“We’ve gotta figure out how we’re gonna get these illegal immigrants. It’s gonna be challenging to teach them how to make sure we get their votes in the Belt.”

📝 Every single illegal alien imported—including amnesty—is part of an effort to overthrow the Constitutional Republic of the United States.

August 31, 2026 – Army Secretary Dan Driscoll resigns for many reasons

As a third-generation Army veteran, it has been the honor of a lifetime to serve as the Secretary of the Army under President Trump and Secretary Hegseth. Tomorrow is my last full day in the role.

Our Soldiers, Civilians, and their Families are our Nation’s very best, and they have inspired me every day. I am sincerely thankful for their service and sacrifice.

I had the privilege of working with them to modernize and accelerate how the Army mans, trains, and equips the most lethal fighting force on the face of the earth. We could not have made the progress we did without the support of Secretary Hegseth.

I am forever grateful to President Trump for the opportunity to once again serve my country.

Dan Driscoll
26th Secretary of the Army

December 5, 2025

Earlier this week, I released an exclusive report about how Army Secretary Dan Driscoll @SecArmy has been aggressively working to undermine Secretary of War Pete Hegseth in an effort to steal his job. My report has since gone viral, and high level sources at @DeptofWar tell me it is the talk of the town at the Pentagon this week.

Source: https://x.com/lauraloomer/status/1995659808205111780?s=42

.@SecWar @PeteHegseth recently went on @katiemillerpod and talked about the differences between men and women in combat.

He said, “My stance has been the standards need to be universally high, and I mean at the male standard high. If that excludes females, then so be it. That’s not the intent, but it could be the effect. And that’s okay.”

That’s not what Army Secretary @SecArmy Dan Driscoll recently said.

Driscoll told Politico’s @DashaBurns in a recent interview there is “no difference” between men and women in combat because he “couldn’t tell the difference between the men and women” at a Ranger school training.

Wow. The Army Secretary is pushing woke gender nonsense while Hegseth is trying to create elite, super warriors who can defend our nation from our enemies.

I really hope we never see a day where Dan Driscoll replaces Pete Hegseth, or else we’re going to have a bunch of feminists on the battlefield and our nation will be captured.

That’s the ultimate fantasy of Driscoll’s best buddy Jake Sullivan @jakejsullivan.

What is going on?

Why is the Secretary of the Army Daniel Driscoll hanging out with Trump hater @YVindman
Eugene Vindman and thanking him for joining the kickoff celebrations for the Army’s 250th birthday today?

Eugene Vindman and his twin brother, Alexander Vindman, testified in the impeachment trial against President Donald Trump.

This is shameful, and @SecArmy should apologize to President Trump for including Trump hating Vindman in this post today. https://x.com/SecArmy/status/SecArmy/status/1933533814719930643

Sources inside the Pentagon tell me that @SecArmy Army Secretary Dan Driscoll was told he needs to stop undermining @PeteHegseth and “stay in his lane”.

Admin officials are growing concerned after planted hit pieces against @PeteHegseth were allegedly being leaked out of the Army Secretary’s office to @jakejsullivan, the architect of Biden’s Auto Pen, and after Driscoll took a secret trip to Ukraine on November 19th, 2025 without notifying anyone at the Department of War. Driscoll traveled to Kyiv on an unannounced visit to discuss military tech and present a Trump administration peace plan to Ukrainian President Zelenskyy.

Driscoll is cosplaying as the Secretary of War, and I’m told he was finally told “stay in your lane”.

There is growing tension at the Pentagon between Hegseth and Driscoll.

In a rare moment of bipartisan “unity” at Dover airport on March 7th, Trump Derangement Syndrome afflicted Congressman Eugene Vindman @YVindman stood beside President Trump at the dignified transfer of the six US Service members who were just killed in Kuwait by an Iranian drone strike.

Vindman and his brother @AVindman Alexander Vindman (who is currently running for US Senate in Florida) were participants in the Russia Collusion hoax and the impeachment trial against President Trump.

Both Vindman brothers are constant critics of President Trump’s military actions:

The Dignified Transfer was arranged by Army Secretary @SecArmy Dan Driscoll.

Why did Dan Driscoll place a Trump hater and outspoken critic of President Trump’s military action in Iran right beside President Trump??

There is zero reason to distract from the solemn nature of a dignified transfer by placing Vindman so close to President Trump. This unnecessarily politicized such an event.

In June of 2025, I previously reported on the weird friendship between @SecArmy and Eugene Vindman, who Driscoll went jogging with and posed for pictures with.

However, when I posted about Vindman jogging with Driscoll and asked why Driscoll posted a photo of himself jogging with Vindman right before the military parade in DC, Driscoll’s advisors called me and frantically begged me to delete my tweet and said it was an “honest mistake” because the Army Secretary “doesn’t know much about politics”.

I was stunned. How can an Army Secretary not know anything about politics?

Driscoll then deleted his X post.

https://x.com/lauraloomer/status/1933555711755321772?s=46

In June 2025, Driscoll’s advisors assured me it would never happen again and that Driscoll now understood who Eugene Vindman was. I gave them a chance, knowing it was a mistake to believe them.

Well, it clearly happened again.

In June 2025, Driscoll’s advisors also claimed he had no idea who he was and that he never knew Vindman was involved in the impeachment of President Trump… even though he posted a photo of himself jogging with Vindman!!!

Don’t forget—Driscoll was also admonished in December 2025 for cosplaying as
@SecWar by secretly traveling to Ukraine to negotiate an end to the Russia-Ukraine war. Vindman is also ethnically Ukrainian.

Strike 4. I am actually counting….

August 31, 2026 – A federal grand jury subpoena’s James Comey advisor Daniel Richman

FIRST ON FOX: NEW GRAND JURY SUBPOENA ISSUED FOR COMEY ADVISER: Per multiple law enforcement sources- a new federal grand jury subpoena has been issued to Daniel Richman, James Comey’s longtime friend and former adviser, as part of a new investigation involving Comey, Richman and the alleged disclosure of classified information to the NY Times.

The subpoena to Richman revives scrutiny of the Comey/Richman classified-leak matter, which was investigated at the end of the first Trump administration and then closed during the Biden administration

The significance here is that federal prosecutors have now opened a new grand jury investigation into the leaking of classified information and are again seeking information from Richman, one of the central figures in the prior Comey leak probe. This adds to the list of federal investigations into alleged misconduct by James Comey.

The woman killed by a knife-wielding maniac in Times Square was a young executive at Bank of America — who had recently celebrated her wedding anniversary, The Post has learned.

Erin Piacenti, 32, of Chester, New Jersey, was fatally stabbed near the Crossroads of the World on Monday afternoon before the suspect, who also wounded an elderly man in the violent rampage, was shot dead by police.

Piacenti was employed by Bank of America in New York City, working as the Vice President of Business Selection and Conflicts, sources told The Post.

She was a 2016 graduate from the University of Pennsylvania and 2021 graduate of Fordham Law School, according to her LinkedIn profile.

The successful career woman had also just celebrated her second wedding anniversary on Aug. 10, according to social media posts.

Piacenti was knifed in the abdomen in the “unprovoked attack” near 42nd Street and Seventh Avenue around 4:30 p.m., NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch told reporters after the attack.

August 31, 2026 – The student senate at Whitman College in Washington, unanimously rejects Republican Club

Whitman College/ Creative Commons Attribution 2.0 Generic license./Author: Adamsofen at English Wikipedia.

Whitman College, located in Walla Walla, Washington, promises every student on its campus “freedom of expression and association.” Unless, it seems, they are Republican.

According to the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE), when members of the Whitman Republican Club applied to become a college-affiliated student organization, “they had every reason to expect approval through the same review process as any other group.”

After all, ideological groups such as Climate Justice Coalition and  Generation Action have a formal affiliation.

The student senate, however, unanimously rejected their application. 25-0.

Per FIRE:

Was it something they had done? Was it something they forgot? No, the record points somewhere else: It was what they believed.

Immediately before the vote, members of the Associated Students of Whitman College’s Senate grilled the club’s representatives about their political views rather than limiting their questions to the club’s organization, constitution, or eligibility. Instead of using viewpoint-neutral criteria, senators asked probing, ideological questions like, “On the 2024 republican party platform subsection 18, what is your club’s take? Will you call the republican party out for things like this?” and “President Trump has made life hard for all international students. When you don’t get affiliated, what is your plan?”

At the end of the discussion, one senator made their objection remarkably explicit: “You can name yourselves whatever you want, but the language of your constitution is in direct contrast to our own constitution. I would suggest that you scrub the title and make a debate club.”

The senators didn’t identify any problem with the group’s application or reason it would not be eligible for recognition. Despite “creating equal and inclusive opportunities” in the ASWC’s own mission, they told the students to scrap their plans, scrub their name, and make their mission more palatable to the senators reviewing it.

FIRE notes it is “viewpoint discrimination, pure and simple.”

September 1, 2026 – Birth tourism mastermind pleads the Fifth

The doctor behind a Miami company that markets services to foreign nationals seeking to give birth in the United States was subpoenaed to testify before Congress Tuesday. He invoked the Fifth Amendment 11 times, answered none of the committee’s substantive questions, and was promptly dismissed from the hearing.

Dr. Wladimir Lorentz, founder and chief medical officer of Miami Medical Concierge Services, also known as “Have My Baby in Miami,” initially refused to voluntarily appear before the House Oversight Committee’s Task Force on Defending Constitutional Rights and Exposing Institutional Abuses. Chairman Rep. James Comer (R-KY) responded by subpoenaing Lorentz on August 26 to appear at Tuesday’s hearing, titled “Protecting American Citizenship: Confronting Birth Tourism.”

But Lorentz’s testimony lasted only a few minutes. In his opening statement, Lorentz said he was appearing in response to the subpoena and, on the advice of his attorney, would decline to answer questions related to a pending federal investigation. “I will respectfully decline to answer any questions touching the subject matter of a pending federal investigation on the grounds that a truthful answer may tend to incriminate me, and I invoke my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution,” Lorentz said.

Lorentz invoked the Fifth in response to every substantive question brought by Task Force Chairman Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX), including questions about whether Have My Baby in Miami facilitated the entry of foreign nationals seeking to give birth and obtain U.S. citizenship for their children, how many foreign nationals had used the service, and whether the company had assisted members of the Chinese Communist Party or foreign criminal organizations.

September 1, 2026 – DHS Markwayne Mullin accuses Kathy Hochul of releasing 13,000 illegal aliens who are gang members, rapists, murderers, and child predators

Markwayne Mullin stepped to the podium in New York City this week and didn’t hold back. “𝘚𝘩𝘦’𝘴 𝘢 𝘓𝘐𝘈𝘙!” the DHS Secretary said of Governor Kathy Hochul. “𝘞𝘦 𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘨𝘦𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 13,000 𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘴𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘦𝘵 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘰𝘯 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘑𝘢𝘯𝘶𝘢𝘳𝘺 20𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘮∗𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘳𝘴, 𝘳∗𝘱𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘴, 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 𝘱∗𝘥𝘰𝘱𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘦𝘴, 𝘥𝘳𝘶𝘨 𝘣𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘳𝘴, 𝘥𝘳𝘶𝘨 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘧𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘬𝘦𝘳𝘴, 𝘨𝘢𝘯𝘨-𝘢𝘧𝘧𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘥 𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘴.”

The operation Mullin was defending is called 𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐑𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐀𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐞, a five-week ICE sweep that ran from July 27th through August 29th and resulted in 𝟐,𝟏𝟗𝟕 𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐬 across New York state, including violent felons with existing criminal records (Department of Homeland Security).

Mullin didn’t stop at the governor. He also went after New York City’s socialist mayor, Zohran Mamdani, accusing him of trying to cut NYPD’s budget by $𝟐𝟐 𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 while refusing to let local police cooperate with federal agents under the 𝟐𝟖𝟕(𝐠) 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦 — the exact partnership that lets local cops help ICE remove criminal aliens.

This is the pattern in every sanctuary state: officials release violent criminals back onto the street, then feign outrage when the federal government does the job they refused to do. Hochul terminated New York’s 287(g) agreements outright — the tool that could have kept those 13,000 individuals off the street in the first place.

September 2, 2026 – A former senior USCIS immigration officer and aide are charged with accepting money for approving and expediting immigration applications

Lukman Owolabi Ganiyu and Adeniyi Akeem Somoye

 

A federal employee has been arrested related to a multi-year immigration fraud scheme in Texas.

Lukman Owolabi Ganiyu, a former Senior Immigration Services Officer with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, and Adeniyi Akeem Somoye were arrested on federal charges for their roles in an alleged multi‑year scheme to receive illegal gratuities in exchange for manipulating and expediting immigration applications.

A federal criminal complaint filed Aug. 31 charges the duo with conspiracy to receive illegal gratuities by a public official. Federal agents arrested both on Sept. 2.

“Selling immigration benefits for cash is a blatant abuse of public trust,” said U.S. Attorney Ryan Raybould. “When a federal official puts a price tag on lawful status, we will intervene immediately. Public corruption will never be tolerated in the Northern District of Texas.”

According to the complaint, from December 2019 through March 2026, Ganiyu used his official position to approve immigration applications — including Forms I‑130: Petition for Alien Relative; I‑485: Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status; I‑751: Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence; and N‑400: Application for Naturalization — in exchange for money.

“The alleged manipulation of immigration decisions for personal gain undermines the integrity of a process essential to our national security,” said FBI Dallas Special Agent in Charge R. Joseph Rothrock. “The FBI and our law enforcement partners remain committed to holding accountable anyone who abuses their position of trust.”

Investigators allege that Ganiyu bypassed required interviews, supervisory review, jurisdictional limitations, background checks and standard USCIS processing protocols to unlawfully expedite approvals for applicants, many of whom were not eligible under federal law.

(…)

The complaint alleges that Ganiyu and Somoye together collected hundreds of thousands of dollars in payments from applicants, several of which correspond directly with immigration approvals issued by Ganiyu.

September 3, 2026 – Zohran Mamdani hires army of influencers paid with tax dollars pushing propaganda for his administration

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is giving special access to a network of approximately 200 social media influencers who take City Hall talking points and videos to promote municipal programs online to residents, according to a new report.

The report, by the Columbia Journalism Review, highlights that the online personalities get their talking points through an encrypted Signal group text, called “NYC Creators Announcements.”

Signal offers a disappearing-messages feature that can automatically delete messages after a set period of time if enabled. It is unclear whether that feature is active in the Mamdani administration’s group, raising questions about compliance with city record-keeping laws.

Questioned by reporters whether the use of Signal possibly breaks city laws, Mamdani said, “My administration will always strive to fully comply with all legal requirements, including those that relate to the preservation of city records.”

The use of Signal for government communications made major headlines last year, when then-Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth came under fire after sensitive, real-time details about U.S. military strikes were shared in a Signal group that included a journalist.

The Columbia Journalism Review report also said influencers are not paid by the city for participating in the group or for their coverage, although some receive payments from marketing and advertising firms with contracts from city agencies for work on specific messaging campaigns. The municipal programs promoted include voting, healthcare, immigration and tenants’ rights, participatory budgeting and composting. (Read more: Fox News, 9/3/2026)  (Archive)

September 3, 2026 – Former top Virginia Democrat official sentenced to 10 years for distributing child sexual abuse material

Randon Alexander Sprinkle (Credit: public domain)

A Richmond man was sentenced today to 10 years in prison for distribution of child sexual abuse material (CSAM).

According to court documents, on May 22, 2025, Randon Alexander Sprinkle, 31, used a dating app to contact another user who purportedly was the father of a nine-year-old son, but in actuality was an undercover agent with the FBI Child Exploitation and Human Trafficking Task Force. Sprinkle immediately invited the user to communicate via the Telegram app. After alluding to a sexual interest in minors, Sprinkle sent a video depicting two adults sexually abusing a minor. Sprinkle then expressed his interest in travelling to Washington, D.C., to meet the other user and sexually abuse his purported nine-year-old son.

On Oct. 16, 2025, FBI agents searched Sprinkle’s residence in Richmond and seized two laptop computers and a cellphone. Sprinkle’s cellphone contained 43 CSAM files and one of the laptops contained two additional files. The files included depictions of the abuse of toddler-aged children.

Theophani K. Stamos, First Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, and Ian Kaufmann, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI’s Richmond Field Office, made the announcement after sentencing by U.S. District Judge Roderick C. Young.

Assistant U.S. Attorneys Ellen Hubbard Theisen and Janet Jin Ah Lee prosecuted the case.

This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse. Led by U.S. Attorneys’ Offices and the Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section (CEOS), Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to better locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who exploit children via the internet, as well as to identify and rescue victims.

September 3, 2026 – Maria Bartiromo is out at Fox News and Fox Business Network

On Thursday, news broke that beloved news anchor Maria Bartiromo was out at FOX News and FOX Business Network.

Maria has been a trusted morning anchor at FOX Media for over 12 years.

The morning star reporter was noticeably absent from her time slot for weeks.

As Cristina Laila reported earlier, FOX News Media released a statement on her departure.

Last night, there were reports that Maria was “fired” after FOX Media nixed her segment on election fraud in the 2020 election.

Veteran investigative journalist and Just the News founder John Solomon reported Friday that claims Bartiromo was “fired” by Fox News are not true.

According to Solomon, Bartiromo will not return to the air but remains under contract and will continue receiving compensation through 2029.

Bartiromo’s attorney, Bryan Freedman, also issued a blistering denial of reports that the veteran anchor had been fired.

“The irresponsible reports that have been published stating that Maria Bartiromo was fired or is no longer an employee of Fox are absolutely and unequivocally false,” Freedman told TheWrap.

Freedman warned that Bartiromo’s team has “the receipts and witnesses” to support its position and suggested the evidence could emerge in court.

(…)

What we are hearing: Multiple reports, citing people familiar with the matter, said the trigger was that she shared confidential internal Fox guidance with the Trump White House. After President Trump’s July 2026 speech containing election-related claims, Fox executives instructed staff not to give those claims airtime. Bartiromo reportedly passed that directive (described in some accounts as a text message) to White House officials. Fox treated the disclosure as a violation of her employment agreement. She had not appeared on air since August 9. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 9/4/2026)  (Archive)

And now the enemy’s media proxy is taking center stage.

The “Big Lie” was that the 2020 election was legitimate and the most secure election in history.

It is still the enemy’s biggest fear.

They know that if the 2020 election is proven to be stolen, a whole lot of people are going to go to prison.

And EVERYTHING will change.
It will destroy the democrat party and ruin FOX News election coverage propaganda and their bullshit polls.

It’s coming and Maria Bartiromo’s suspension is going to help focus the American people on our fraudulent election system.

The case is being made daily to the public, that our ENTIRE election system is unconstitutional and a threat to “national security.”

The table is being set for an “emergency declaration” to transform and safeguard the election system in every state.

The Maine  this week upheld a lower court ruling preventing a mother from taking her 13-year-old daughter to a church it referred to as a “cult.”

The decision could set a bad precedent for other jurisdictions to grab onto nationwide. But the religious liberty law firm representing the mother, Emily Westbrook, in the case has promised an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.

A look at Calvary Chapel of Greater Portland’s doctrines and description in the court opinion makes it sound like it believes in pretty standard Bible-based teaching: the Old and New Testaments are the Word of God; the Trinity (Father, Son, Holy Spirit); original sin; salvation through Jesus Christ; the Second Coming; and the rest.

Maine affiliate WMTW-TV reported that Westbrook challenged a 2024 custody order prohibiting her from taking her daughter to Calvary Chapel, arguing it violates her right to free exercise of religion guaranteed under the First and Fourteenth Amendments.

“A district court judge sided with the child’s father, Matthew Bradeen, ruling that some of the church’s teachings could be psychologically harmful to the girl. The order allows Bradeen to solely decide on his daughter’s involvement with Calvary Chapel Church. When it comes to any other religious organization, the order states that the parents share rights and must discuss decisions,” WMTW further noted.

Janja Lalich (Credit: public domain)

The Maine Supreme Court, in its unanimous decision Tuesday upholding the lower court’s order, said, “We are also unpersuaded by Bickford’s claim that the court evinced hostility toward her religion by describing her church in offensive terms, including referring to it as a ‘cult.’ The court used the word ‘cult’ only in describing the testimony of [Janja] Lalich, the stipulated expert on ‘cults.’”

“The court noted that ‘cult’ serves as a shorthand for what sociologists like Lalich call ‘closed social systems’ and that Lalich identified Bickford’s church as one of these systems. The court used ‘cult’ in summarizing Lalich’s testimony, but it did not otherwise refer to Bickford’s church as a cult or a closed social system,” the justices added.

“In these circumstances, we are satisfied that the court neither evinced hostility toward Bickford’s religion nor cast any legitimate doubt on its impartiality,” the court said.

With so many references to “cult,” it sure seems like hostility. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 9/4/2026)  (Archive)

September 4, 2026 – Blue state school district accused of defying Supreme Court, hiding gender transitions from parents

(Oliver Contreras/AFP via Getty Images)

A New Jersey school district is being sued over a policy allowing students to change their name and gender identity at school without notifying their parents.

Under the School District of the Chathams’ policy, students are able to change their name in official school records, use the bathrooms and locker rooms that align with their gender identity, and the school guidance counselor decides “whether, and to what extent” parents are involved in the decision.

The school’s policy flies in the face of the Supreme Court’s ruling in Mirabelli v. Bonta in March, which granted an injunction against California over state policies that keep students’ gender identities confidential from parents while the issue works its way through the lower courts, according to Christopher Ferrara, senior counsel for the Thomas More Society, who filed the lawsuit.

“Well, the court has made clear in the Mirabelli case, and the Third Circuit has a decision along the same lines, that parents have standing to challenge a policy like this, which would hide a gender transition from the parents, whether or not the child is actually transitioning,” Ferrara told Fox News Digital. “And the Supreme Court indicated that the reason parents have standing is that the parents are the objects of this policy.”

“The policy provides that this information will be hidden from them, so they have the right to object to it, whether or not their particular child or children is at that moment being transitioned. And there’s always a risk, of course, that the child under peer pressure, or the influence of teachers, or social media, will go along with this ridiculous trend and decide that his gender is not the biological one that parents believe is God-given and immutable, but some other gender.”

Ferrara noted that the policy could have major consequences for students who aren’t seeking to transition their gender because they could be forced to share locker rooms and bathrooms with members of the opposite sex.

Moms for Liberty CEO and founder Tina Descovich, whose organization is one of the plaintiffs in the lawsuit, also alleged that students who refuse to use other students’ preferred pronouns could face disciplinary action under the school’s code of conduct.

“They have a policy in the school district that will actually punish children that don’t use the demanded new gender identity pronoun and name of another student,” Descovich told Fox News Digital. “They can do that just one time on accident, and they can be punished up to suspension just for using the wrong pronoun or the wrong name of someone that is identifying as something other than they actually are.”

September 4, 2026 – A Missouri GOP State House candidate is charged with trying to plant cocaine and Adderall on his primary opponent

Thomas Ross (Credit: public domain)

There are political dirty tricks, and then there are really dirty tricks: A candidate for the Missouri legislature has been charged with trying to plant cocaine on his Republican primary opponent.

For good measure, the attempted dirty trick also included planting the frequently abused stimulant Adderall,  a form of “speed” in the amphetamine family of prescription drugs.

Louise Secker

Federal authorities have charged Thomas Ross, 37, with conspiracy to distribute a controlled substance for allegedly asking his former campaign manager to plant the substances on his opponent, Louise Secker, in the weeks leading up to the August 4 Republican primary, news outlets are reporting per court documents.

Ross, of Joplin, defeated Secker by fewer than three dozen votes, NBC reported.

The two Republican candidates were competing for the nomination for a house seat representing Missouri’s 161st District, which primarily covers Joplin.

Ross did not respond Thursday to the Associated Press asking for comment on the charges filed mid-week. The federal public defender’s office assigned to the case also did not comment when asked how the nominee planned to plead.

In a statement issued this week, Missouri’s Republican Party chairman, Peter Kinder, called on Ross to drop out of the race, calling the allegations “serious and deeply troubling.”

AP reported:

A former campaign manager for Ross told law enforcement officers that Ross provided him with a black nylon glove that contained a small, plastic bag of white powder and a pink and white capsule. He said Ross told him to place it in Secker’s purse or vehicle while Ross was out of state on vacation, according to a probable cause statement signed by an FBI agent.

September 5, 2026 – DHS hands DOJ the smoking gun on QR/BARCODE ballots, ERIC data theft, and 42k dead voters in Georgia.

For years, Democratic states currently challenging the Trump administration’s access to voter and motor vehicle driver data over privacy concerns have been turning that data over to a nonprofit accused by the Homeland Security Department of violating privacy laws.

The Justice Department has sued dozens of states since last fall to force them to hand over unredacted voter rolls, including driver’s license numbers and partial Social Security numbers, and several Democratic-led states have refused, citing privacy statutes and warning the data could be misused.

But a letter Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin sent Attorney General Todd Blanche this week shows some of those same states have long belonged to a data-sharing consortium that funneled comparable motor vehicle records to a nonprofit with ties to Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg.

Mullin’s letter, released by the White House on Friday, asks the Justice Department to investigate whether the Electronic Registration Information Center violated the Driver’s Privacy Protection Act by disclosing Social Security and driver’s license numbers to “unknown contractors, subcontractors and agents.”

ERIC, Mullin wrote, later passed that data to the Center for Election Innovation and Research, a nonprofit co-founded by the same official who helped start ERIC and that is funded, in part, by a foundation run by Priscilla Chan and her husband, Zuckerberg.

ERIC and CEIR were each founded and organized by David Becker, a former government lawyer who later became a director for the progressive People for the American Way.

Twenty-seven states and the District of Columbia belong to ERIC, according to the group’s own membership list. Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New York and Pennsylvania, all Democratic-led states that have either sued the Trump administration or been sued by it this year over demands for unredacted voter files, are members of ERIC.

The Justice Department has filed at least 31 lawsuits against 30 states and Washington, D.C., seeking full voter registration lists. Michigan, Minnesota, New York and Pennsylvania were among the six states the Justice Department sued in September 2025 after they refused to comply. Massachusetts was sued that December along with 17 other states. (Read more: Just the News, 9/5/2026)  (Archive)

THIS IS BIG FOR ELECTION INTEGRITY🚨🚨
A newly released September 2, 2026 letter from DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin to Attorney General Todd Blanche reveals that the Department of Homeland Security has referred major election-security concerns to the Department of Justice for legal review.

Among the issues raised:

🔥 BARCODES & QR CODES ON BALLOTS — DHS asked DOJ to determine whether voting systems that count votes encoded in barcodes and QR codes comply with the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) requirement for a voter-verifiable paper record capable of being manually audited. The letter warns that some systems can be configured so the human-readable text and barcode represent different programming.

🔥 DHS CITES A CISA WARNING stating researchers found that hackers could potentially alter votes encoded in a barcode without physically accessing the machines.

🔥 ERIC IS UNDER SCRUTINY — DHS also asked DOJ to examine whether states’ sharing of motor-vehicle and voter-registration information with private nonprofit organizations could violate the Driver’s Privacy Protection Act (DPPA). The letter specifically discusses ERIC and CEIR and raises questions about the handling of sensitive motor-vehicle data.

🔥GEORGIA IS NAMED.
The letter says Georgia has shared DPPA-protected information with ERIC since 2019 and states that a 2026 SAVE-system analysis identified more than 42,000 deceased registrants on Georgia’s voter rolls. That is the DHS Secretary’s assertion in the letter and deserves close examination of the underlying data.

This isn’t a social-media rumor or somebody’s theory.

This is an official DHS letter to the Attorney General of the United States asking DOJ to review previously made referrals involving election systems and voter data.

For years, Americans have asked serious questions about QR/barcode voting systems, voter-verifiable paper records, ERIC, private organizations accessing government data, and voter-roll maintenance.

Now those questions are sitting in front of the U.S. Department of Justice.

👀 Georgia — PAY ATTENTION.

Read the four-page letter yourself:

THIS LETTER IS THE RECEIPT.

DHS just handed DOJ the smoking gun on QR/BARCODE ballots, ERIC data theft, and 42k DEAD voters in Georgia.

Not theory. Official referral from Sec. Mullin to AG Blanche.

— Machines can print one vote and encode ANOTHER in the barcode.

— CISA already warned hackers can flip those codes without touching the machine.

— ERIC vacuumed DMV files (SSNs + licenses) and fed them to Pew/CEIR — the same Zuck-funded operation that mailed 30k non-citizens in Colorado.

Georgia stayed in ERIC since 2019 and STILL has 42,000 deceased on the rolls.

Previous DOJ sat on it.

@AGToddBlanche — investigate the pipeline.

Ban the codes. Dismantle ERIC.

Only legal votes count.

ERIC and CEIR used protected state motor-vehicle data, with state cooperation, to build and work nationwide lists of unregistered residents and to drive millions of new registrations. The Citizens had no idea this was being done with their money. Both ERIC and CEIR must absolutely be dismantled and those responsible for these crimes held accountable for the damages caused.

Voter Registration MUST be moved back to the Counties as SOLE CUSTODIANS of their records, sharing what is legal in READ-ONLY format with the public for oversight (and to allow other counties to cross-reference).

It is laid out in the PEP (https://x.com/PatriotMarkCook/status/1986823687337877696)

As far as the other issue in the letter:

Non-human-readable content on a ballot (regardless of the format) cannot exist, because it can be used to hide what Citizens cannot see, inhibiting their ability for OVERSIGHT. This is QR, Barcode, AND what everyone is MISSING right now: The Code Channel.

The code channel (blue box below) is the extra column next to the timing track that encodes precinct/style. What people must understand is that there are many creative ways that non-human-readable information can be put on a piece of paper. (i.e. machine identification codes that most printers already use). Close one, and they’ll use another. If I were the bad guys, I’d just use something like MIC to get the job done.

Attention all states – ERIC paid SaaS Opportunity Capital $281,677 for IT Services for 2025.

ERIC (Electronic Registration Information Services NGO) has our personally identifiable information: social security number, driver’s license no., birthdate and much more – even of people who are not registered to vote!!

SaaS Opportunity Capital LLC lists an address of 400 South Akard Suite 100, Dallas,TX 75202.

Twist 1 – they are not located at that location, instead it is DataBank Co. They are a data center in the former regional Federal Reserve Bank Building.

Twist 2 – DataBank reports 46 onsite communications carriers, whose complete identities are not publicly disclosed.

This is a dire concern for our critical infrastructure as ERIC receives personal information from the 27 state members’ DMV’s to your top state election official, to ERIC, to unknown parties, but….

is it DataBank Co. where all of ERIC’s voter data from their 27 state members is stored, in Dallas TX?

🚨Twist 3 – SaaS Opportunity Capital LLC gives an address of 4230 N. Oakland Ave, Ste 201, Milwaukee. A UPS store!! Address is from the Sec. of State of Wis.

Twist 4 – SaaS Opportunity Capital LLC is shown in ERIC’s 2026 IRS 990 filing, with the Dallas TX address not the Wis. address.

Twist 5 – Larry Hitchcock is the verified managing director of SaaS Opportunity Capital. He is from Wisconsin, attended US-Madison, but lived in California for 30 years.

🧨Twist 6 – Saas is a startup company! Only founded since March 30th of 2023.

Do they have our personally identifiable data? What are they doing with IT services of hundreds of thousands of dollars to ERIC…who has YOUR social security number and driver’s license number?

Twist 7 – On June 5, 2025 SaaS announced it acquired Celera Systems. Here is some of what Celera does:

Celera delivers targeted innovations designed explicitly for enterprise-level needs, surpassing traditional print-focused solutions. Our capabilities include:

I’m REALLY GLAD the rest of the country is catching up on stuff I knew 6 years ago.

September 5, 2026 – Michigan govt. emails expose which law officers closed the GBI Strategies voter registration fraud case

(…) President Trump laid bare the massive GBI Scandal in his Nationwide Address on election fraud in July, 2026.

The liberal media, including FOX News for some reason, have ignored the accusations from Trump’s address, pretending like the documents he released on election fraud were not newsworthy!

Recently,  has obtained MI government emails showing who shut down this “Muskegon Voter Fraud” investigation into GBI Strategies, and when.

The emails include 12 staff members from MI Attorney General Dana Nessel’s office and one detective from the Michigan State Police.

There are numerous instances where DOJ/FBI work hand in hand with state law enforcement (AG) on investigations. This includes election cases in TX, NC, KY, PA, NJ, and so on. So why did the Michigan Attorney General and State Police completely walk away from this case?

In the first couple of weeks of this investigation, there was a flurry of activity by the Muskegon Police, the MI State Police (MSP), and the MI Department of the Attorney General’s office (AG). They executed search warrants at 3 locations across the state and conducted several interviews.

Initial Voter Fraud Investigation Timeline:

  • Oct. 8 – GBI Strategies employee delivers 10K applications to Muskegon
  • Oct 16 – Muskegon City Clerk notifies local Police of voter fraud
  • Oct. 20 – GBI delivers more forms. Muskegon Police grab the employee
  • Oct. 22 – State Police obtain T-Mobile GPS warrant
  • Oct. 23 – Joint /State Police (MSP) investigation initiated
  • Oct. 23 – GPS identifies Southfield, MI, Tel Nine Office Plaza.
  • Oct. 28 – Grand Haven search warrant executed at 10:00 AM.
  • Oct. 29 – Muskegon Heights search warrant executed at 2:30 PM.
  • Oct. 29 – Southfield search warrant executed at 3:00 PM.
  • Nov. 2–5th – MSP Detectives create reports on searches and interviews.
  • Nov. 5-24th – Digital evidence processed by the Computer Crimes Unit.

Note that several of these actions took place AFTER the 2020 election on November 3rd.

After Biden won the election, from November through January 2021, there’s little investigation activity. Then on January 25th, just five days after Biden is sworn into office, AG Special Agent Stephen Morse contacts the MI State Police.

He asks Detective First Lieutenant Michael Anderson for an investigation update. Morse says “AG executives want a status report”. The image explains the timeline.

About one week later, Agent Morse (AG) and Detective Anderson (MSP) are looking to collaborate. They want to compare reports, review evidence, and schedule a meeting with Muskegon Police, who initiated the investigation. This suggests the matter was still under active investigation.

Richard Cunningham

About 6 weeks later (March 16), a significant development occurs. Michigan AG Special Agent Peter Ackerly tells Stephen Morse (AG) the Feds are now involved. The DOJ U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Michigan has opened an investigation file. Because of this, the FBI is requesting copies of reports and search warrant affidavits created by the MI Attorney General’s office.

Just seven weeks later (May 6), the MI AG lead investigator Richard Cunningham sends a formal “REQUEST TO CLOSE FILE”. He was told the matter was turned over to the feds and the MI State Police were out of it. There was no further need for MI AG involvement, so he requested their legal file be closed.

Danielle Hagaman-Clark (Credit: public domain)

Later that evening, Danielle Hagaman-Clark responded: “You can close this out.” She was the Acting Division Chief, Criminal Trials and Appeals Division, of the MI Attorney General. She was elevated to this position in February. She was appointed to the role of full Chief in May, roughly the same time this case was closed.

To recap, 3 months after the investigation was opened, an update was requested by “executives” in the MI Attorney General’s office. Two months later, the DOJ gets involved. Two months after that, the case is closed by Michigan officials, ending all their law enforcement activities.

It should be noted that the subject line in many of the emails includes the terms “Muskegon Voter Fraud Case” and “GBI (Gary Bell Inc.)”. These are the state’s top law enforcement agencies and top lawyers admitting there was voter fraud. But when the DOJ took over the case, they closed it.

About 18 months later, in October of 2023, Detective First Lt. Anderson of the MI State Police was promoted to Inspector.

The Gateway Pundit spoke with Lt. Anderson back in August 2023. He was very open with us about his role in the investigation. Lt. Anderson said you would not expect to find the guns and silencers in a normal business that were discovered during a raid at one of the offices.  He also agreed with us that it was easier to hide information when you are paying people with prepaid cash cards.

Contributions from independent investigator Yehuda Miller.

Below are over a dozen email communications between staff at the MI Department of Attorney General and Michigan State Police.

September 6, 2026 – Georgia SOS Raffensperger spins a devastating new audit that exposes 466,000 illegal ballots and phantom voters from Georgia’s 2020 election

As you read this report, keep in mind why President Trump told Raffensperger in the infamous phone call, ‘I just want to find 11,780 votes’ after the 2020 election fraud occurred in Georgia.

Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger attempts to spin a devastating new audit that accidentally exposes hundreds of thousands of illegal ballots and phantom voters from the 2020 election.

#Georgia #VoterRolls #ElectionIntegrity

 

The Senate Appropriations Committee requested this special examination of voter registration and list maintenance procedures. Based on this request, we reviewed: (1) name and address validation procedures for voter registration; (2) list maintenance policies and procedures; and (3) the extent to which these procedures align with statutory requirements and best practices.

(…)

Controls over voter registration are generally effective; however, opportunities for improvement exist.
Georgia’s voter registration system utilizes automated processes to verify applicant identity and eligibility with thirdparty sources, as well as to restrict the entry of invalid residential addresses. Based on our review, we estimate no more than 0.1% of the voter registration records would have allowed an individual to vote despite an unverified identity, invalid residential addresses, or unverified eligibility due to citizenship issues.

• Unverified identities – We confirmed the identity of 99.8% of the 7.9 million voter records containing a REAL ID number, matching name components and other identifying information such as date of birth. Most of the 17,855 unmatched records either include a social security number, which can be used to verify identity, or have been placed in a registration status that requires further documentation before they can vote. Nevertheless, we estimate between 790 and 1,160 voters’ identities cannot be confirmed with information listed on the registration, yet their status does not indicate further documentation is needed prior to voting.

We did not attempt to confirm identity associated with the approximately 129,000 voter records that did not contain a REAL ID number. For these, the county registrar could have used the reported social security number— which most of the 129,000 have—to verify identity.

• Invalid addresses – State law requires voters to register using the address associated with their
permanent residence. We identified 2,784 registrations with residential addresses for P.O. boxes
(or similar companies), which are prohibited from being used to establish residency.
Additionally, we identified 965 registrations listing a Georgia Department of Corrections facility
or county jail. Finally, we identified 3,027 registrations with address errors (e.g., placeholder
terms indicating missing or invalid information such as “missing street address”).

• Unverified citizenship – State and federal law require U.S. citizenship to vote in elections.
When REAL ID records indicate individuals do not possess U.S. citizenship, state law requires
county registrars to obtain proof. Among the 7.9 million voter records with a driver’s license
number, we identified approximately 2,600 voters currently or previously in active status who
could not be verified as U.S. citizens on their REAL ID, through federal database searches, or in
the voter registration system.

Some of these problematic registrations were due to operational control weaknesses within the
Department of Driver Services (DDS) that created REAL IDs with incorrect citizenship status or
submitted voter registrations prior to REAL ID approval. After identifying these weaknesses, DDS
reviewed records for all active driver’s licenses with U.S. citizen status and identified 3,285
additional REAL IDs that were issued without necessary identity and citizenship documentation.
After further research, DDS reported it confirmed U.S. citizenship for 750 and lawful presence (but
not U.S. citizenship) for 678; DDS canceled the remaining 1,857 IDs that could not be verified.

Approximately 17,900 registrations (or 0.2% of the population reviewed) could not be matched with DDS records to confirm identity using our criteria, either because they had an invalid driver’s license number or the number provided did not match the individual’s information, as described below. A portion of records may be identified with other data or a detailed visual inspection. Others have already been flagged by SOS as problematic and placed in a status of “Missing Identification and Documentation Required” (MIDR17), which requires the individual to provide proof of identity prior to voting. However, we estimate between 786 and 1,163 voters whose identities cannot be verified with the reported REAL ID number or a social security number and have not been flagged in the voter registration record as requiring additional identity documentation.1

• Invalid REAL ID Number – For 7,121 registrations, DDS had no match for the listed REAL ID number, and we could not find the individual using other criteria such as name and date of birth. The majority (5,064 or 71%) included a social security number that the county registrar could have used to verify identity and approve the registration. 19 Among the 2,057 with no social security number, 1,502 (73%) are in MIDR status or pending. The remaining 555 registrations are problematic because their identity cannot be verified using a valid driver’s license or a social security number; 166 have a voting history (see text box below for a description of voting history). It is possible that county registrars verified some of these registrations through information not available in the registration data obtained for this audit.

• Unmatched Information in DDS – For 10,734 registrations, a record was identified in DDS, but the identity could not be confirmed using the criteria listed in Exhibit 7. We conducted an in-depth visual examination for a representative sample of 988 registrations. 20 In 583 records (59%), we observed slight name differences (e.g., Betsey vs. Elizabeth21) that would validate identity and explain why the record failed our data matching criteria.

Among the 405 without a match, the majority (311 or 77%) included a social security number that the county registrar could have used to verify identity. Among the 94 with no social security number, 56 were in MIDR status. Of the remaining 38 registrations that were not in MIDR status, 12 have a voting history. Again, it is possible county registrars verified identity through other information not available in the registration data.

To ensure the sample we used was representative of the population, we calculated a sample size necessary to yield a 95% confidence interval with a ±3% margin of error for the population proportion. Our resulting sample was randomly selected and did not include duplicates.22 Based on the sample review, we estimate between 231 and 608 individuals have not been flagged in the registration data as requiring additional identity documentation despite having identities that cannot be verified with driver’s license or social security numbers. We estimate no more than 281 of these have likely voted.

We provided SOS with a list of the unverified records for further review. After their review, any remaining registrations that cannot be verified based on current information can be placed in MIDR status.

Over 19,000 fraudulent ballots that were counted in Fulton County were found in the 2020 Georgia election, but even worse, the people who were hired to count the ballots turned out to be a company whose parent company is partially owned by Stacey Abrams herself, who let the fake ballots slide in the first place.

So, Stacey Abrams’s temp firm was the one counting the votes, who also played a key role in “voter registrations” for Joe Biden through a political activist group against Donald Trump. You just can’t make this stuff up. They had everything set up from the inside from the start.

Remember, the most important people are the ones who count the votes. This incident alone was enough to flip Georgia to Trump, with Biden’s margin of “victory” only being 11,779 votes.

September 7, 2026 – $8 million in taxpayer dollars earmarked for Ohio charter school, was spent on Miami vacation property

Leondo Ramone Davenport, 50, of Cincinnati, and Jonathan Larry Ballew, 62, of Phoenix are accused of taking part in an $8 million kickback scheme, according to federal officials. (Credit: WKRC)

Taxpayer dollars intended for a public charter school in Ohio were instead spent on $30,000 per month in rent on a luxury vacation property near Miami, according to a new federal indictment.

Leondo Ramone Davenport, 50, of Cincinnati, and Jonathan Larry Ballew, 62, of Phoenix, Arizona, have been charged in a $8 million fraud and kickback scheme, according to prosecutors.

Davenport was superintendent of Dohn Community High School from 2015 to 2019. The school was incorporated as a non-profit addiction recovery program for high school students.

“This indictment alleges a brazen scheme that stole from both taxpayers and students,” U.S. Assistant Attorney General Colin McDonald said in a statement. “Education dollars exist to support the learning and development of American children – not to fund the lifestyles of unscrupulous school officials.”

According to the indictment, from 2021 to 2024, “Davenport and Ballew participated in a kickback scheme to defraud the school,” a news release said. “Ballew allegedly submitted false and fraudulent invoices to Dohn on behalf of the entities he controlled. Davenport allegedly authorized Dohn to pay the invoices and received a kickback in return. In total, during this time, Davenport allegedly authorized Dohn to pay over $8 million to Ballew and Ballew correspondingly paid over $4 million back to Davenport.” (Read more)

September 7, 2026 – Michigan test scores fall to new lows despite increased spending

Recently released test results show new lows for Michigan students on standardized exams, even as the state continues to spend historic amounts on education.

State Superintendent Dr. Glenn Maleyko said more work is needed—especially on reading.

“It will take continued hard work from everyone and a strong Students First approach to improve student achievement across Michigan,” Maleyko said. “That means we must emphasize teamwork involving MDE, the State Board of Education, local school districts, parents, the governor, the legislature, the business and philanthropic communities, education associations, labor, higher education and libraries.”

The results of the 2026 Michigan Student Test of Educational Progress, also known as M-STEP, found that 61.8% of all third-graders scored below proficient on the state’s English language arts test. That was up slightly from 61.1% in 2024.

This has been an ongoing trend over the last few years, with fourth-graders seeing a similar increase this year in the percentage of students scoring below proficient.

In the exam’s 12-year history, the 2026 results are the worst scores ever recorded among third-graders. (Read more)

September 7, 2026 – LA professor Melina Abdullah identifies an ICE agent, tells crowd where he may be, and repeatedly says to “fuck him up”

Why is @CalStateLA professor Melina Abdullah identifying a specific ICE agent, telling a crowd where he may be staying, giving the street address, and repeatedly saying to “fuck him up”?

“Brian Palacios may be staying at the Hilton Garden Inn at 2000 Solar Drive… fuck him up.”

She later urges the crowd to read Blood in My Eye and “study guerrilla warfare.”

Abdullah later tried to broaden the meaning of “fuck him up,” saying it can include exposing agents or making them uncomfortable.

But that qualification comes only after she names a specific person, gives a possible location and street address, and repeatedly tells the crowd to “fuck him up.”

You can argue about the legal threshold. It is much harder to argue that this sequence would not reasonably be understood as putting a specific person in danger.

And yes, this all happened at yesterday’s PSL-affiliated La Defensa del Pueblo summit.

Abdullah was speaking on the summit’s closing panel alongside California State Senator Sasha Renée Pérez (@SashaReneePerez), The People’s Forum founder Manolo De Los Santos, PSL Central Committee member Karina Garcia, and moderator Kameron Hurt, himself a PSL organizer.

Former Irvine mayor Farrah Khan had also been advertised as a panelist, but did not participate on this panel.

The university’s own bio describes Melina Abdullah as a “womanist scholar-activist” and a leader of Black Lives Matter Los Angeles.

Abdullah has been celebrated again and again by the same institutions that are supposed to confer legitimacy.

Abdullah has received the YWCA’s Racial Justice Award, two Fannie Lou Hamer Awards, the California Teachers Association Human Rights Award, the Ella Baker Award, the Freedom Now Award, the Communitas Award, and the Sacred Sistahs Award.

She was also named one of LA Weekly’s ten most influential Los Angeles leaders, “Urban Girl of the Year” by 2UrbanGirls, and one of Fierce’s “15 Fiercest Sisters.”

September 8, 2026 – Mitch McConnell’s wife Elaine Chao held appointments from Chinese Communist Party organizations while serving in cabinet

Do you ever wonder how your country was sold out? Why the jobs left the rust belt and never came back? Why chinese companies get to outcompete American businesses through “engagement” on Chinese terms? Wonder why we never got an inquiry into Covid origins in Wuhan?

Elaine Chao is emblematic of the elite capture. She held appointments in CCP organizations while serving as Labor Secretary for the entire Bush administration and Transportation Secretary in the first Trump term. Oh and don’t worry about her marriage to Mitch McConnell – he’s only the most powerful Republican for a generation.

(Surprise surprise, he voted to support China’s Permanent normal trade relations status with the US back in 2000)

Her family also happens to own a shipping company called Foremost Group, whose fleet is overwhelmingly oriented toward Chinese ports, whose ships are built in Chinese state yards, and whose financing includes Chinese government-linked loans. Campaign contributions and multimillion-dollar gifts flowed from that family into McConnell’s political world. Why would they want a trade war?

She is just the tip of the iceberg by the way. There are MANY MORE, and some who have already passed (like Diane Feinstein). US-China policy ran on a single script for decades until Trump broke the mold in 2016.

“She has never held a position with a foreign government or acted on behalf of one. We are not aware she has met with representatives from UFWD entities,” Chao’s spokesperson told @Dailycaller after being sent Chinese government and state media photos published between 2010 and 2026 showing Chao meeting with officials from the CCP and/or UFWD. “Such a suggestion disregards her nearly five decades of faithful service to the United States and is both unfounded and deeply insulting, hurtful and racist.”

September 8, 2026 – Fox censors Trump’s primetime address, muzzles Maria Bartiromo for trying to cover it, and censors the truth from viewers

New details revealed about who was behind Maria Bartiromo’s departure from Fox.

Ralph Giordano, Fox Business SVP of Programming, reportedly instructed Maria’s producers NOT to cover President Trump’s upcoming primetime speech on election integrity and China on her show.

Maria disagreed.

She wanted to cover the story because Americans deserved to know what the President actually said. They deserved the chance to hear his message and judge it for themselves.

She reportedly screenshotted Giordano’s directive and sent it to the White House.

The White House called Fox.

And suddenly, Maria was the problem.

Her executive producer was also let go.

After 12½ years, Fox parted ways with Maria. No goodbye. No farewell. Her name was stripped from the shows almost overnight.

Fox calls it a “business decision.” Her attorney says reports that she was fired are “absolutely and unequivocally false” and says they have the “receipts and witnesses.”

Whatever happened behind the scenes, Maria did what she believed journalists should do: stand her ground and fight to get information to the public.

President Trump called her a true warrior.

Maria Bartiromo proved exactly why.

This may be one of the most important media stories you’ll ever see. Too many conservatives assume Fox News speaks for Trump and MAGA.

It does not.

The Maria Bartiromo story, and what happened after President Trump’s July 16 address, shows you exactly how the Fox censorship machine works.

2/ President Trump was preparing a rare primetime address on Communist China’s VAST capabilities to interfere in American elections.

Maria Bartiromo booked me for the next morning.

Hours later, she sent me a message from Fox Business programming chief Ralph Giordano: “We don’t want to promote it” and “We don’t want to do 2020 election segments.”

POTUS censorship from the belly of the Fox anti-Trump beast.

September 8, 2026 – Ukrainian Prosecutor General Kravchenko is raided by anti-corruption cops, they find a safe full of money, then he flees country before arrest

Another day, another top Ukrainian official is in deep trouble with the country’s corruption agencies.

This time, it’s the Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko, accused of being part of a criminal organization that offered protection to scam call center gangs.

NABU and SAPO raided his office and found a safe filled with dollars and euros, allegedly the fruit of his criminal activity.

Kravchenko has reportedly fled Ukraine via Poland, and it’s now said to be in France.

Today, Ukraine’s parliament dismissed Kravchenko, a day after he announced ‘charges’ against the head of the country’s anti-corruption bureau, the very agency that raided him.

Ukraine’s Prosecutor General Has Fled the Country!

Ukraine’s Prosecutor General, Kravchenko, who resigned from his post, signed a notice of suspicion against the director of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU), allegedly with Zelensky’s approval.

This was reported by the Ukrainian Anti-Corruption Action Center. According to its information, Kravchenko has already left the country—something that was possible only “with Zelensky’s consent.” The media claim that he fled in an official vehicle.

At the same time, the head of the Kiev regime said that he had asked the Verkhovnaya Rada to “urgently support Kravchenko’s dismissal”:

“This prosecutor general has only one possible course of action—dismissal from office.”

It was previously reported that, in addition to the NABU director, a person close to the head of Ukraine’s Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office was also notified of suspicion.

September 9, 2026 – Arkansas Democrat Hallie Shoffner tells voters she’d trade five Americans for one illegal alien farm worker

Arkansas Democrat US Senate Candidate Hallie Shoffner @hallieshoffner let it slip during a recent interview that she values illegal aliens over American workers.

She shockingly said she would trade 5 Americans for 1 illegal alien!!!!

Shoffner proclaimed her love for illegals on video, saying:

“Every farmer will tell you, ‘Yeah, at one point, we did, or still do, employ undocumented immigrants,’ and it’s absolutely ridiculous that these folks are being rounded up, because they’re hardworking people, they’re some of the best people we know, and honestly, we’d trade five Americans for just one of them.”

Shoffner suggested during the interview that she has paid illegal immigrants “well”:

She said,

“Because of how hard they work, and why is it that there’s no pathway for them to work here legally when they’re good workers? We pay them well, they spend money here, they have family here.”

Shoffner then shamelessly stated that she would allow her 7-year-old child to be in the presence of illegal immigrants:

“We’re acting like all Republicans like what’s happening with ICE, and Tom Cotton’s basically saying, ‘You, Andy, if you’re a Republican and you disagree with my position on ICE, or if you’re asking any kind of questions about it, well, you must be anti-American and anti-safety.’ And I’m like, “I have a seven-year-old boy, all I think about is safety.”

Hallie Shoffner is running around Arkansas yelling about “defunding ICE” while at the same time saying she never made those remarks which are on video below. 👇🏻

The facts are clear: Farmer Hallie loves putting illegal aliens first, which is why she is UNFIT to serve in the US Senate.

Arkansas voters, BEWARE!

September 10, 2026 – An illegal alien is arrested in Kansas after voting in 2024 presidential election

They continue to arrest illegals and noncitizens, who voted in our elections.

Next, they get deported.

“Any non-citizens registering to vote in our elections continues to pile up. Any non-citizens found registering and voting in our elections will be arrested and held accountable. Only Americans should be electing American leaders,” she added.

The administration has made numerous arrests for similar charges across the country. In July, federal authorities arrested and charged an illegal alien in New Jersey for voting in a federal election, the Caller learned first. While a number of academic studies have found that such cases are uncommon, othershave shown that illegal votes can still make an impact in local and some state-level elections.”

The media always tries to downplay the impact of noncitizens voting in our elections.

Calling it “uncommon” and claiming it only has “impact” in “some” local and state elections.

That’s downplaying this illegal act.

Every single noncitizen that votes, just canceled out an American citizen’s vote.

They VIOLATED an American citizen’s Constitutional right to vote.

It doesn’t matter whether or not they “impacted” an election.

What matters, is that they broke the law and stole a vote from an American citizen.

The government officials who allowed them to vote need to be prosecuted too.

So do the people registering them to vote.

September 10, 2026 – DOJ sends letters to 30 states demanding they retain election records, and their election chiefs are under investigation

No subtilty about this at all.

They are LITERALLY telling these state election official officials they are being investigated on the patterns in which they conducted their PREVIOUS elections for federal offices.

And that how they conduct these UPCOMING elections for federal offices in their states is going to be subjected to a detailed examination.

NOBODY is going to be able to say this snuck up on them.

(…)

BREAKING: Trump’s DOJ drops the hammer, escalating threats by sending letters to around 30 states demanding that they retain election records, and that their election chiefs are under investigation.

– Multiple states failed to turn over complete, unredacted statewide voter registration lists.

– Demands access to all 2024 election records for investigation.

– Chief election officials are currently under investigation and subject to ongoing litigation.

– Election irregularities, including machine anomalies and noncitizen voting.

– Noncitizens registered and voting, and being used to create fraudulent ballots.

September 10, 2026 – DHS Secretary confirms Ilhan Omar did marry her brother

BREAKING: DHS Secretary Just Confirmed That Rep. Ilhan Omar Did Marry Her Brother

“We know that she married her brother to try to bring him into the United States. There may be more to this, possibly some illegal activity.”

I asked DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin about Omar’s further legal and immigration problems and his response: “Something’s Gonna Happen. This is an ongoing investigation.”

“When we move forward it’s not political it’s because you chose to break the nations laws. I don’t make the law as anymore, I’m in charge of enforcing the laws. I will not pick and choose which laws to enforce and which I’m not. We are going to enforce all of them regardless of who you are.”

September 11, 2026 – Children of Somali dictator living quiet suburban lives in Ohio and among victims of his regime

The children of former Somali dictator Mohamed Siad Barre, whose brutal regime has been linked to the deaths of as many as 200,000 people, are reportedly living quiet suburban lives in Columbus, Ohio.

According to an investigation by the New York Post, Barre’s son, Ayanle Mohamed Siad, and daughter, Deka Mohamed Siad, settled in the United States after their father was overthrown in 1991.

Their presence has reportedly caused deep pain within Columbus’ Somali community, which includes refugees and families who suffered under Barre’s 21-year dictatorship.

“Siad Barre and his men committed so many war crimes, so I was shocked to see his son in the mosque enjoying his freedom,” Ali-Guban Mohamed, whose family members were reportedly executed by Barre’s forces, told the Post.

Barre seized power in a 1969 coup and ruled Somalia through repression, political persecution, and military violence. His regime’s campaign against the Isaaq people in northern Somalia included mass killings, destroyed cities, poisoned wells, and widespread displacement. Estimates of those killed range as high as 200,000.

Ayanle, 61, has been described by historian Mohamed Haji Ingiriis as his father’s “right-hand man.” Ingiriis told the Post that Ayanle exercised significant power during the final years of the dictatorship and at one point acted as the de facto ruler while his father was incapacitated.

September 11, 2026 – NBC News Boston effectively doxxes black man who was the holdout juror in the Lindsay Clancy case

The campaign to name and shame the holdout juror in the Lindsay Clancy case is just 50 shades of disgusting and, frankly, un-American.

As we reported, it started with some of the 11 other jurors, some of whom ran to the mainstream media at the first chance they got to complain about the fact that the holdout juror, who we were informed is a man, didn’t see eye to eye with them “on acquitting Clancy (finding her not guilty by reason of lack of criminal responsibility [i.e., insanity]).”

One of them was admittedly miffed over the fact that, in her words, the man “had the hardest time getting off the fact that Lindsay viciously killed her children.” Well, yeah. Wouldn’t most people in a similar situation?

Then there was Clancy’s unhinged defense attorney, Kevin Reddington, who, as my colleague Bob Hoge correctly pointed out, “crossed just about every ethical line possible” with a direct and pointed attack on the juror outside the courtroom after a mistrial was declared, proclaiming that his fellow jurors “were robbed by one man for whatever his agenda was, who stole seven weeks from the life of these other jurors.” He then added, “I hope that guy can sleep well at night.”

I mean, a defense attorney vociferously advocating on behalf of their client is something they are supposed to do. But as George Washington Law School Professor Jonathan Turley observed, Reddington’s repeated attacks on the juror went way too far and were “utterly reprehensible,” and possibly warranted “a communication from the court.”

In an update to all of this, we learned from another juror on Friday that the holdout juror was black – and the only person of color on the jury – which shattered rabid Clancy defenders who wanted to blame the mistrial on an angry white male.

But, not content with the information that was supplied by other jurors about the holdout’s physical characteristics, NBC News Boston has stooped to new levels, effectively doxxing the juror, who they alleged has previously been accused of domestic violence:

UPDATE 9/23/2026

September 11, 2026 – Trump asks the Smithsonian to honor George Washington with a five-year exhibition at the American History Museum

I am calling on the Smithsonian Institution to honor the Life and Legacy of George Washington, America’s Greatest Hero, with a five-year exhibition at the National Museum of American History, beginning now, and continuing through, February 22, 2032, the 300th anniversary of Washington’s birth.

I am also calling on the Smithsonian to erect a 30-foot “Colossus statue” of the Father of Our Country outside the Museum, to replace the so-called “Infinity” sculpture that stands there today. That strange modernist sculpture tells visitors nothing about America, inspires no one, and honors none of our Great American Heroes.

George Washington does. He is easily America’s Greatest Hero. Without him, our Country and our Freedoms wouldn’t exist.

And yet, during our Nation’s 250th Anniversary Year, the Museum has failed to give George Washington and our other Founding Fathers the celebration they deserve. Washington’s Heroic Crossing of the Delaware on December 25, 1776—One of the greatest moments and turning points of the Revolution—is not even mentioned in the Museum. His Victory at Trenton, and the stories of the Americans who fought and died for our Independence, deserve far more attention.

Under recently ended leadership, the Smithsonian created a “Center for Restorative History,” and commissioned a “Decolonization Plan,” to focus attention overwhelmingly on those who have been oppressed, but there is almost no attention paid to those who triumphed over great oppression, and against great odds.

One current exhibit describes the period of 1492 to 1776, including Christopher Columbus’s discovery of the New World, and the European settlement of America, as the “Great Unsettling” of the Continent.

That tells you all you need to know about how twisted the thinking is today at the Smithsonian.

Instead of a Center for Restorative History, America’s National History Museum should have a Center for American Heroes.

Tell the stories of Americans who faced great challenges, overcame them, built great things, defended our Country, made America better, and helped our Nation more fully live up to our Founding Ideals.

That is a History worth teaching, because it is America’s story.

Instead of focusing on ideological activism, the leaders of America’s taxpayer-funded, National History Museum should be focused on telling America’s story—fairly, accurately, and coherently—and there is no better person to start with than George Washington.

(…)

So, I’m asking for the Smithsonian to install the 11-foot Washington statue that was featured at the recent Freedom 250 Grand Prix Race in the Museum’s Flag Hall, and dedicate it this Constitution Day, September 17, 2026.

Immediately design and display a five-year exhibition worthy of the Life, Sacrifice, and Contributions of George Washington.

Then, as soon as it is ready, install a 30-foot Washington Colossus where “Infinity” stands today.

Replace a sculpture that says nothing about America with the man who, more than anyone else, says everything about America.

This is how we should begin to honor George Washington in the lead-up to his 300th birthday in 2032. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP

September 11, 2026 – Bill Maher delivers a brutal 9/11 reality check to Democrats

Bill Maher used the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks to say something that once required no courage at all: terrorists are terrorists. That the observation now counts as provocative says something about how far we’ve come since 2001.

On Real Time with Bill Maher, in a segment titled “Clash of Civilizations,” Maher walked through what has happened in the 25 years since 9/11.

“Since it’s the 25th anniversary of 9/11, and since, for 25 years, we’ve been kept relatively safe from anything close to another 9/11, how about a hand for the Americans who made that happen? Because it didn’t just happen; there was a war on terror, and we won,” he said. “And yet so much has changed since 9/11; for example, back then we were against the terrorists.”

The audience laughed, but he was being serious.

Around the 20th anniversary, for example, four American journalism associations issued guidance insisting that “terrorism should only be used in quotes because it’s emotionally and politically loaded.” Canadian state broadcasters instructed staff, “Do not refer to the September 11th attacks as terrorist attacks.” The BBC told its reporters that using the word “terrorist” can be a “barrier rather than an aid to understanding.”

The pattern shows that the media establishment many years ago concluded moral clarity amounted to a kind of bigotry and that to name an ideology responsible for mass murder was the same as harboring hatred towards all those who happen to share that ideology.

Maher made that distinction himself by dividing radical Islamism from Islam in general and also separating both of them from the issue that liberals consistently avoid, which is why so many of them came to sympathize with the side that attacked the West rather than with the side that was attacked.

Maher revisited his own history on this point, playing a clip of himself from shortly after the attacks on his ABC show Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher in which he argued that political correctness “is something we can no longer afford” because “feelings are going to get hurt so that actual people won’t.”

Maher lamented that the idea of “ditching political correctness and actually being honest” never “even got off the ground.”

He then pointed out that after 9/11, there was a big debate over whether it was a “clash of civilizations.” According to Maher, “it was, and it still is.” But that clash isn’t between Muslims and Christians, but rather radical Islamism and Western liberalism.

Maher then referred to a poll that showed that one in five young Americans now holds a positive view of Osama bin Laden (which would have been unthinkable 25 years ago) and compared it to how Luigi Mangione came to be seen as a folk hero; he assassinated Brian Thompson, the CEO of UnitedHealthcare. In both cases, a killer becomes a symbol of grievance, and the actual victims become a footnote to a woke narrative about systemic injustice.

“You hear it in a lot of places now that the worst thing about 9/11 was innocent Muslims came under suspicion,” Maher continued. “Yeah, where that did happen, it’s wrong, but the worst thing about 9/11 was 3,000 people got roasted at the office. But the prevailing view of so many young people is that ‘Well, come on, we’re the worst country ever, so if someone attacks us, they can’t be all bad.’ That certainly wasn’t the attitude 25 years ago. In fact, I know a guy whose show got canceled just for saying that terrorists weren’t cowards, and that guy was right; they weren’t cowards. But I’ll tell you who is: Democratic Party politicians. And I’ll tell you why, because nowhere has this moral confusion become more obvious than in a place called Gaza.”

September 11, 2026 – CIA Director John Ratcliffe releases 71 Presidential Daily Briefs outlining intelligence discussions before and after 9/11

Today the CIA released an unprecedented 71 Presidential Daily Briefs given to the Executive Branch before and after the 9/11 terrorist attacks.  You can review the material [HERE – CIA LINK]

I would remind readers, in 2010 George W Bush’s campaign manager, aide and senior staff, Karl Rove, revealed [“Courage and Consequence“] that then CIA Director George Tenet had been trying for several weeks to get a personal meeting with President Bush to outline an intelligence concern about an international terror threat.

According to Rove, White House National Security Advisor, Condoleezza Rice, had been blocking Tenet from meeting with President Bush.  Director Tenet sent several requests using alternate channels to reach Bush.  Eventually, in the late spring or early summer 2001, Tenet overcame the Rice block and was given time to brief President Bush.

CIA Director George Tenet then told President Bush the CIA had intercepted telephone “chatter” pointing to an al-Qaeda terrorist threat that somehow involved airlines.  However, the details and the specifics of the threat were unknown.  The only thing Tenet knew with certainty was that some type of plot was underway and airlines were involved.

George W Bush responded to Tenet by saying it appeared the CIA director was just trying to “cover his ass” in case something happened.  Bush was angered at the vagueness of the warning and told Tenet to consider his ass covered, but essentially the information was useless without specifics.

The rest, as they say, is history.  The matter did not surface again until after the 9/11/01 plot was carried out.

September 12, 2026 – Corrupt federal prosecutor, Jocelyn Ballantine, is STILL working in the DC Court

SWAMP CREATURE OF THE WEEK ALERT!🐊

Career DOJ prosecutor Jocelyn Ballantine – a familiar name in the most draconian MAGA political persecution cases – is BACK.

🔴 SPOILER ALERT! 🔴
BALLANTINE ALLEGEDLY TRIED TO FRAME PRESIDENT TRUMP FOR J6!

…and MAGA is asking the question:

❓ WHY is this dirty deep stater still working at the DOJ?

⬇️ 🎥 TALE OF THE TAPE 🎥 ⬇️

⏺️ Assistant U.S. Attorney — Washington, DC
⏺️ Longtime DOJ career prosecutor
⏺️ Undefeated record prosecuting Trump supporters & allies
⏺️ Now serving as lead prosecutor in the case of the alleged J6 Pipe Bomber

⏺️ Accused by J6 defendants of attempting to frame President Trump
⏺️ Allegedly pressured Enrique Tarrio to perjure himself to frame President Trump
⏺️ Alleged demand: Tarrio falsely testify President Trump knew the Proud Boys would go inside the Capitol in advance to tie Trump to the fedsurrection
⏺️ Alleged and fabricated “intermediary” named by Ballantine: Roger Stone
⏺️ Tarrio REFUSED to lie under oath
⏺️ Result: 23-year prison sentence

Ballantine was also:
⏺️ Previously involved in the prosecution of General Michael Flynn
⏺️ Case later collapsed after DOJ/FBI misconduct
⏺️ Exculpatory evidence was withheld from the defense

⏺️ J6 whistleblower Jeremy Bertino confessed Ballantine and her team successfully coerced him to commit perjury in exchange for leniency

⏺️ On January 6, 2026, Ballantine rushed a federal grand jury
⏺️ Timing: just before the statute of limitations expired
⏺️ Case: the alleged J6 Pipe Bomber

And now critics are asking the obvious question:

❓REAL QUESTION- Shouldn’t a grand jury be examining dirty deep state prosecutor Jocelyn Ballantine instead?

⬇️ Critics say potential areas for review include: ⬇️

⏺️ Prosecutorial misconduct
⏺️ Subornation of perjury
⏺️ Witness tampering
⏺️ Abuse of authority
⏺️ Obstruction of justice

⚠️ To be clear: No charges have been filed.
⚠️ Ballantine has declined to respond to reporters’ questions.

Our reporter @CaraCastronuova attempted to question Ballantine at a DC courthouse – she avoided the press and literally hid in a courthouse conference room until reporters finally left.

So here’s the bottom line 👇

If January 6 is truly about accountability, then accountability must apply to EVERYONE —
including DOJ prosecutors THAT BROKE THE LAW.

Do you think “Swamp Creature of the Week” Jocelyn Ballentine should be fired or indicted?

Please share this video everywhere to hold bad actors like Ballantine accountable and tag President Trump, Elon Musk, and anyone else you think should see it!

🎥 WATCH THE FULL VIDEO PACKAGE 📺 and follow our White House Correspondent @CaraCastronuova 🇺🇸

#JocelynBallantine

I don’t think people fully appreciate the depths of the depravity of Jocelyn Ballantine.

Loyalty to @realDonaldTrump is not smiling while scoundrels sink his administration.

Loyalty is calling out those scoundrels.

Why is Jocelyn Ballantine still employed at the DOJ?

Why is she pursuing the patsy persecution of Brian Cole Jr.?

This is going to be the biggest black eye of this administration, and everyone involved in that case.

It’s on you @JudgeJeanine

Don’t repeat your own history by keeping an innocent person locked up for no reason.

September 12, 2026 – Chinese CBP supervisor arrested after FBI catches him tearing apart and modifying Homeland Security computers

Terry “Jiajia” Liu (Credit: Slay News)

A Chinese-born Customs and Border Protection (CBP) supervisor stationed along America’s border with Canada has been arrested after FBI investigators caught him on hidden cameras allegedly tearing apart Homeland Security computers, removing and replacing components, and reconnecting the altered machines to the federal government’s network.

Terry “Jiajia” Liu, 39, of Calais, Maine, was charged with theft and destruction of government property after investigators discovered that dozens of CBP computers at three border facilities had been tampered with.

Liu, who described himself as a native of Guangzhou, China, worked as a CBP supervisor at the Calais Port of Entry, with responsibilities extending to the Ferry Point and Milltown crossings.

Federal CBP officers are required to be U.S. citizens.

Yet the extraordinary case is now raising serious questions about how Liu obtained a sensitive Homeland Security position that allegedly gave him after-hours access to government computers along America’s northern border.

FBI Finds 46 Border Computers Altered

The investigation began after CBP information technology personnel discovered in late 2025 that computers at three Maine border facilities had been modified without authorization.

According to an FBI affidavit, investigators eventually identified 46 affected machines.

(…)

Liu admitted during an FBI interview on September 9 that he had used CBP computer components through Newegg’s trade-in program in exchange for store credit.

He initially told investigators that he was attempting to make the computers “more efficient.”

Liu later offered another explanation, saying he had become frustrated by how long CBP computer repairs were taking.

However, the FBI affidavit states that Liu knew his modifications were actually degrading the computers’ performance.

September 14, 2026 – SNAP fraud crackdown stops $5.8 billion loss: USDA

Since President Trump took office, @USDA has cracked down on SNAP fraud — delivering real results and protecting American taxpayers.

💰 $5.8 billion in taxpayer losses prevented

🚫 1,840 illegal SNAP devices shut down

❌ 5,335 fraudulent retailers disqualified

Those who defraud SNAP are stealing from taxpayers and taking resources away from Americans who genuinely need assistance.

We have zero tolerance for this abuse, and we will continue pursuing bad actors and protecting the integrity of the program.

More than 5,300 retailers have been disqualified as part of the department’s SNAP integrity efforts because they were STEALING.

Shortly after taking office, President Trump ordered federal agencies to be granted “unfettered access” to SNAP data and set up a team to identify potential food stamp fraud.

Since then, the federal government has shut down more than 1,800 illegal devices that processed benefits payment cards and disqualified more than 5,000 fraudulent retailers. The result, according to the agriculture secretary, is almost $6 billion in food stamp dollars saved.

Think about what $6 billion could do.

September 14, 2026 – NY Democrat Gov. Kathy Hochul pardons a convicted illegal alien to protect him from mandatory deportation

New York’s Democrat Gov. Kathy Hochul intervened in a U.S. Supreme Court case by giving an official pardon to a migrant who was convicted of a felony to try and prevent the Trump administration from deporting him.

The U.S. Supreme Court had agreed to hear the case of Dominican Republic national Keisy Guerrero Mariano, who was at the center of an argument on bond rights for noncitizens detained for lengthy periods.

Mariano was convicted of second-degree assault in 2015 and actually served time for the crime. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) later arrested him in 2020 and marked him for deportation for being a migrant with a dangerous assault conviction on his record, which is a violation of immigration rules. But by 2024, the Second Circuit Court ruled that prolonged detention can allow a migrant to claim a constitutional right to a bond hearing.

The Trump administration had appealed the Second Circuit’s ruling allowing Mariano to seek bond and further insisted that noncitizens, even those with green cards, do not have a legal right to a bond hearing for a prolonged detention if they have committed crimes that are grounds for mandatory deportation, Fox News reported.

Apparently fearing that Mariano would lose his case and then be deported, New York’s left-wing governor jumped into action to protect the dangerous migrant convict from being deported.

Hochul issued Mariano a full state pardon for his criminal record, thereby quashing the Supreme Court case against him and protecting him from deportation.

Iowa solicitor general Eric Wessan blasted Hochul for working to protect migrant criminals and for working to free these dangerous foreigners into the American population.

September 14, 2026 – Supreme Court blocks Trump’s mail-in ballot order assuring fake ballots will be counted in 2026 mid-term election

The Supreme Court blocked President Donald Trump’s mail-in voting order on Monday, allowing a lower court’s ruling to remain in effect.

The ruling, which marked a major blow to the Trump administration, blocked proposed changes to the United States Postal Service that would require states to submit mail-in voter lists to the service. The service would then refuse delivery of ballots to recipients not on the list.

The majority of justices determined that the administration’s position was unlikely to succeed, while Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh said in a separate opinion that “state and local election officials do not have sufficient time to reasonably implement the rule before the election.”

Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented.

(Just the News, 9/14/2026)  (Archive)

Trump responds:

Republicans just got another bad decision from the United States Supreme Court, one that the Court System took forever to give, and then blamed it, in part, on no time left to implement a solution to our totally CORRUPT and out of control Mail-In voting “disaster,” which is a laughing stock all over the World, and where we are the only country that has to endure such a Nation Destroying SCAM. Justices Alito and Thomas, legends both, strongly disagreed with this horrible, highly political, ruling. It is a big loss for Republicans, and America itself, and makes cheating by the Radical Left “Dumocrats,” on Mail-In Ballots, a much easier thing to do – And now they have an open field to do so!

The Supreme Court has really let our Country down! Certain Justices are petrified of these crazed and depraved Democrats, and are totally unable to show the courage necessary to save our America. Their horrible decision on Tariffs will be costing the U.S.A., for many years to come, Trillions and Trillions of Dollars. They didn’t even state, “money paid does not have to be paid back,” much to the benefit of entities that truly hate our Country, and have been RIPPING IT OFF FOR YEARS, unnecessarily costing us, immediately, Billions of Dollars.

Likewise, the Supreme Court’s Decision on Birthright Citizenship is a complete and total disaster for America, and has already led to massive corruption with respect to “citizenship” in our Country. The damage done to America is incalculable, and they know this, just as everyone else does – It is an irreparable and unrecoverable harm! The Court’s inability and unwillingness to do the right thing for our Country will go down, in a very negative way, in the annals of History.

This Supreme Court is bullied and cajoled by the Radical Left into making decisions that have set America back at least a hundred years. These are not the people I interviewed to serve on the United States Supreme Court, they are merely a shell of their original selves, a Court that is costing the United States Trillions of Dollars with shockingly bad rulings that are of such magnitude that it won’t be easily possible for our Country to recover or heal. It is a Court that will go down as having rendered some of the most destructive, hurtful, and damaging decisions in our Country’s history.

It is not easy for me to write this criticism of the United States Supreme Court – it will likely cost me dearly for years to come – but I feel it my obligation and duty, as President, to do so for the America we love! Thank you for your attention to this very important matter. God bless the U.S.A. President DONALD J. TRUMP

September 14, 2026 – Former CIA Director John Brennan subpoenaed over Russiagate conspiracy against Trump

Former CIA Director John Brennan must testify under oath about his role in a grand conspiracy to frame President Donald Trump as a Russian puppet, according to a new legal filing.

Brennan will be compelled by a subpoena to testify on Oct. 15, 2026, before a federal grand jury sitting in Fort Pierce in Southern Florida, the legal filing shows.

The filing reveals the Justice Department (DOJ) is pursuing two probes, including a far-reaching conspiracy investigation to include “issues at Mar-a-Lago and beyond,” an apparent reference to the 2022 FBI raid of Mar-a-Lago over classified records, and another narrower one related to Brennan’s sworn statements before Congress.

Brennan’s attorney Ken Wainstein revealed the subpoena in a filing in Brennan’s case against the Department of Justice. Brennan has accused Trump’s Justice Department of violating his constitutional rights in pursuit of “phantom criminal conduct.”

Reached through his law firm, Wainstein declined to comment.

The subpoena was signed by former Counselor to the Attorney General Joseph E. diGenova on Sept. 9, 2026. diGenova abruptly resigned as top prosecutor on the Russiagate conspiracy case the next day, on Sept. 10. (Read more: The Daily Caller, 9/14/2026) (Archive)

September 14, 2026 – NY Mayor Mamdani files lawsuit against Trump administration over new rule that will deny green cards for welfare recipients

New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced a lawsuit against the over a new rule that would allow the denial of green cards to immigrants who use welfare programs like food stamps, Medicaid, and public housing assistance.

Several other liberal jurisdictions, including Chicago, San Francisco, and Seattle, are involved in the suit.

Mamdani, in a press conference on Monday, railed against the policy that “makes it possible for someone to be denied immigration status based on the likelihood of their need for public benefits.”

He thinks you should be able to come to this country from Africa, China, India, the Middle East, or South America and just feed off of native Americans’ tax dollars.

He says this creates “uncertainty and fear to isolate immigrant New Yorkers to force them to make an impossible choice between meeting their own basic needs and continuing to live in the city that they love”

“This is an undisguised effort to strip New Yorkers of the services they rely on, the public benefits they are entitled to,” the Communist mayor said, claiming that actual Americans must now fear that officers will come after them if they use welfare programs.

“People could die,” he claimed.

WATCH:

“Hardworking families should not be forced to go without the support they need because they fear asking for assistance will get them deported,” New York Attorney General Letitia James said in a press release.

“This rule preys on that fear and counts on families forfeiting the food assistance, health care coverage, and other public benefits to which they are legally entitled. My office fought this exact policy once before and won, and we are leading the nation to ensure the Trump administration cannot inflict this harm on families again.”

President Donald Trump said Tuesday that the failed assassination attempt on his life in Butler, Pennsylvania, was a “Democrat Plot” and added that new information “was just found.”

In a post on Truth Social, Trump criticized the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) under former President Joe Biden for failing to “do what they should have with respect to the Lunatic” who shot him.

“Everybody knows the Crooked Joe Biden FBI didn’t do what they should have with respect to the Lunatic who shot me in Butler, PA,” Trump said. “By the time I got into Office, on January 20th, most of the information was missing, altered, corrupted, or gone. New info was just found!”

Trump continued to question why the information was not “seen long ago.”

“This was all a Democrat Plot, to get me out of the Election, that failed,” Trump continued. “Dirty Cop Christopher Wray should pay a price for the way he handled this assassination attempt, and certainly for the things he said.”

The 10 Weirdest Things I Found in the Latest Thomas Crooks FBI Drop

1. The FBI had the ladder. A private citizen found it in a wood lot in Bethel Park on July 17, 2024, along with Crooks’ rifle bag and his gun-club ID. A week later Christopher Wray told Congress “we did not find the ladder at the scene.” Technically accurate, but misleading. The ladder was 40 miles away, in FBI custody.

2. Agents were searching a specific dumpster for a third Crooks phone. They had two of his phones already.

3. A gun store in Edinboro, two hours from home, reported someone who looked like Crooks browsing for an hour with two other men, a month and a half before Butler. The file gives us no further details, but the suspect’s ammo purchase matched one of Crooks’ rifles.

4. The day before the shooting, he spent two hours on the range talking with an unidentified man. Agents ran plates. No follow-up included in the file.

5. Crooks’ apparent bag had weird stuff: a Stanley 12-foot tape measure, a red Sharpie, a Hyper Tough stapler, and a box of light-duty staples.

6. He accessed four encrypted Belgian email accounts. The FBI sent formal requests to two foreign governments for records on them. The files does not include whatever came from those requests.

September 15, 2026 – Federal Judge refers Philly Soros DA Larry Krasner for federal criminal investigation for providing false information to the court

In a stunning move, a federal judge on Tuesday referred Soros-backed Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner for federal criminal investigation to determine whether he should be charged with conspiracy or obstruction of justice in his efforts to overturn a murder conviction.

U.S. District Judge Paul Diamond (Credit: public domain)

U.S. District Judge Paul Diamond, a George W. Bush appointee, said testimony from the DA’s staffers described conduct by Larry Krasner and his top deputy, Matthew Stiegler, as “troubling.”

Larry Krasner and his attorneys are now being accused of committing crimes, such as suborning perjury, after they received a court petition to overturn a 2009 second-degree murder conviction.

Dennis Johnson was convicted of second-degree murder in 2009 for the slaying of Kenyatta Smith at a Philadelphia convenience store.

Johnson was sentenced to life in prison without parole. Over the last ten years, Johnson has been fighting his conviction.

Four prosecutors in the DA’s office alleged that Krasner pressured staffers to provide false information to the court to shield a supervisor from blame.

“I have thus reluctantly concluded that Philadelphia’s highest official and one of his top assistants may have violated the law,” Judge Diamond wrote.

“In these circumstances, with the issuance of this Memorandum, I refer the DAO, Mr. Krasner, and Stiegler to this District’s United States Attorney’s Office for investigation and other appropriate action,” the judge said.

Krasner and Stiegler are both barred from any further participation in Johnson’s ongoing bid to overturn his murder conviction. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 9/15/2026)  (Archive)

UPDATE:

A federal judge refers progressive Philadelphia DA Larry Krasner to the DOJ for a criminal investigation, citing explosive evidence of perjury and a conspiracy to release a convicted murderer.

September 16, 2026 – House report drops ActBlue Slack messages showing staff knowingly waved through foreign donations

House Republicans just released the third installment of their ActBlue investigation, and the internal messages are worse than the Democrats’ money machine has admitted.

On Wednesday, the House Judiciary Committee, House Administration Committee, and House Oversight and Government Reform Committee published a joint interim staff report titled “Fraud on ActBlue, Part III: ActBlue’s Failure to Prevent Illegal Foreign Political Contributions.”

The report includes internal communications, including Slack-style staff traffic and supervisor notes, showing ActBlue analysts were trained to look for reasons to accept money, not block it, even when the donation screamed foreign origin.

The “verification” Congress was sold

ActBlue CEO Regina Wallace-Jones previously told House Administration Chairman Bryan Steil (R-WI) that donations tied to addresses outside the United States required a U.S. passport number.
Internal ActBlue procedure documents produced to the committees tell a different story, according to the report.

The so-called verification “uses very basic validation, number of characters, to ensure that the number entered is a valid passport number, but we do not verify the information in any other way.”
Staff did not check the number against any government database. They stored whatever string of digits the donor typed and kept the money moving.

If a donor had no passport, an employee could invent an “alternative method” of confirming citizenship and drop a placeholder into the account: ACTBLUEXX. After that, future donations from the same account skipped the passport prompt entirely.

One supervisor overruled a rejection with this logic: the donor is foreign, but they entered a billing address, “so they would be prompted for a passport number.”

Another wrote that a foreign contribution to a political organization was “okay” because the donor used the correct country code and therefore “would need to enter a passport number.” The number itself never had to be real.

That is the security theater Democrats have been waving around as proof foreign money cannot enter American elections.

Slack culture: “Give the donor the benefit of the doubt”

h/t X22Report

September 16, 2026 – Germany’s former Chancellor Merkel reveals how Bill Gates exerted pressure on policymakers regarding vaccinations

BQQM… Angela Merkel just exposed the operating system of global control from inside the room…

An unelected billionaire could enter sovereign capitals as an equal, select the priority, pressure elected leaders, unlock public money and use international reputation to punish resistance…

Vaccines gave us one visible node… follow the mechanism outward and the entire organism appears as foundations fund, experts legitimize, institutions standardize, media conditions, corporations deliver and governments enforce…

This four part thread maps the admission, exposes the machinery, closes the control loop and shows why sovereignty has become the countermove sweeping the world…

Once you see who shaped the choices before elected leaders announced them, the global realignment becomes impossible to misunderstand…

(…)

Let’s not miss the meta signal in the noise here… Merkel is demonstrating (see video) how the whole transnational control organism works… this is an admission of guilt… a 4 part thread…🧵

People will make this about Bill Gates, vaccines or COVID because that keeps the revelation trapped inside one compartment…

Merkel is describing how private money accumulated enough institutional power to stand beside sovereign governments, select which problems received attention, pressure elected leaders into supplying public money and impose reputational costs upon those who resisted…

Gates (and many others) never needed to win an election… his foundation gave him access equal to heads of government and enough leverage to tell African leaders that Merkel had been “stingy” when Germany failed to contribute enough to the vaccine alliance…

Merkel admits this placed her in a bad position and allowed Gates to acquire great power through money…

Her exchange with Gates about education reveals how the priorities were selected… education was decentralized, constantly changing and difficult to measure, while vaccination offered a standardized intervention that could be financed, counted and scaled across countries…

Whatever can be standardized, measured and monitored attracts centralized capital, while everything local or difficult to quantify gradually loses funding and attention…

Private capital selects the priority, foundations finance the institutions surrounding it, experts legitimize it, multilateral bodies convert it into international consensus,..

NGOs create moral pressure, media presents it as the responsible position, corporations deliver the product and governments provide taxpayer money, legal authority and nationwide enforcement…

By the time the elected leader announces the decision, the acceptable choices have already been shaped upstream…

Merkel just opened the door… now let’s walk through it and map the organism…

2/4… The transnational control organism requires no single headquarters because its specialized parts are connected through money, personnel, standards, technology and access…

Its brain is concentrated capital held by billionaire foundations, multinational corporations, major banks and asset managers that determine which priorities receive funding…

Its nervous system is the multilateral layer of the UN, WHO, World Bank, IMF, OECD, EU and related institutions that translate those priorities into standards, targets and policy frameworks…

Its intellectual layer consists of universities, think tanks, consultancies, professional associations and expert panels that produce the approved research, language and measurements…

Once this layer defines the problem, controls the evidence and establishes the acceptable solution, governments enter a policy environment already constructed for them…

Its circulatory system moves money through grants, development loans, earmarked contributions, public-private partnerships, procurement contracts, pension funds and sovereign wealth funds…

Beneath that sits the global financial plumbing of central banks, settlement systems, correspondent banking, credit ratings and reserve currencies, determining which governments can borrow, which industries receive liquidity and which countries can be isolated from global capital…

Corporations become the muscles that manufacture the products, operate the platforms, build the infrastructure and fulfill the contracts…

Data networks become the senses that measure populations, assign risk and track compliance…

Cloud platforms, payment systems, digital identity, telecommunications and government databases become the memory that allows policy to be administered through access, permissions and automated conditions…

Capital selects the mission while the connected institutions build the world required to administer it…

That is the anatomy… now let’s follow how it protects itself, reproduces itself and converts influence into enforcement…

3/4… Every functioning system needs a control loop…

The organism protects itself through a communications layer of media organizations, NGOs, advocacy groups, corporate public relations and credentialed experts that transforms institutional preferences into moral imperatives…

Treaties, regulators, courts, procurement rules and permanent bureaucracies then form the legal shell that preserves policy long after the politicians who announced it have disappeared…

Its recruitment system keeps the machinery alive across generations… “elite” universities, fellowships, foundations, think tanks and leadership programs identify personnel, provide credentials and circulate them through government, media, finance, technology and international institutions…

Elections replace the faces while the same professional class continues administering the system…

Controlled crisis accelerates the process by creating urgency, reducing deliberation and opening the door for emergency partnerships, new infrastructure and permanent standards…

The machinery only needs prepared solutions, trusted messengers and financing vehicles ready to expand when the opportunity arrives…

Elected government becomes the public facing enforcement layer because foundations cannot tax a nation, banks cannot pass legislation and multilateral institutions cannot independently deploy domestic agencies…

Government supplies those powers as politicians sign the checks, regulators write the rules, bureaucracies administer them and the public absorbs the cost…

This is how elected leaders can function as figureheads while retaining enormous formal authority…

They remain visible enough to absorb public accountability while operating inside a system whose priorities, financing, expertise and legitimacy were assembled elsewhere…

Many became willing participants because the network supplied money, access, prestige, protection and ready made policy…

The deepest layer is us… citizens provide the taxes, pension savings, consumer data, national credit and institutional legitimacy that power the organism…

Public wealth is pooled into funds, those funds finance corporations and policy vehicles, and those institutions return with the power to shape the lives of the people whose capital created them…

Distributed control makes the architecture durable… its power centers can compete over territory, profit and tactics while preserving the same operating system through shared funding, personnel, standards, infrastructure and incentives…

Once we see where the leverage comes from, the worldwide return to sovereignty begins making sense… let’s look at that now…

4/4… The sovereign countermove is what we are all starting to recognize…

Merkel exposed far more than Bill Gates… she exposed the architecture of governance without democratic ownership…

Vaccines were one visible node inside an operating system reaching through finance, energy, food, education, technology, defense, media and global development…

Capital selected the priorities while finance disciplined, experts legitimized, multilateral institutions standardized, technology observed, media conditioned, bureaucracy preserved, corporations delivered, intelligence protected and government legalized and enforced…

The citizen supplied the money, data and consent while being shown the elected leader as the person supposedly in control…

Now the worldwide sovereignty movement comes into focus…

Nations are reclaiming borders, energy, industry, food, money, data, health policy and critical infrastructure because those are the pressure points through which the transnational organism accumulated leverage…

Dependency allowed outside institutions to influence domestic priorities, attach conditions to capital, control essential systems and narrow the choices available to elected governments…

Every sovereign capacity rebuilt at home removes another pressure point… domestic energy weakens external coercion… independent food and industrial systems reduce supply chain leverage… and national control over data, communications and financial infrastructure limits the ability of private networks to administer policy through access and permissions…

Rebuilding internal expertise allows governments to evaluate policies without depending upon institutions financed by the same interests proposing the solution…

This is the larger realignment underway… sovereignty is becoming the organizing principle of a world that has seen what dependency eventually becomes…

Merkel showed us the old control system from inside the room… the next chapter is about nations dismantling its leverage from the outside in… we are witnessing this happen all over the world…

September 16, 2026 – Three employed at L.A.-area homeless nonprofits arrested on federal charges alleging misuse of millions of taxpayer dollars

Michael Young, 46, Lakiya Malone, 48, and Donye Mitchell, 55, were charged in the federal fraud crackdown in California (Department of Justice)

Law enforcement today arrested two defendants, out of three total, who have been charged in separate federal homelessness corruption and fraud cases, including a founder of a Culver City, California,-based nonprofit who allegedly misappropriated more than $7.5 million in taxpayer funds, and used this money for commercial real estate and to finance the construction of a nightclub and adjacent bingo hall.

Today’s enforcement action is the latest effort by the Homelessness Fraud and Corruption Task Force to investigate, combat, and prosecute fraud, waste, abuse, and corruption involving funds allocated toward the eradication of homelessness within the seven-county jurisdiction of the Central District of California: Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, and Ventura.

“Today the Department of Justice, with the full force of the federal government, is announcing charges in a major fraud takedown targeting schemes that stole millions from programs meant to house California’s homeless,” said Assistant Attorney General Colin M. McDonald of the National Fraud Enforcement Division. “As alleged, Michael Young, through Home at Last, received more than $100 million in taxpayer funds and misappropriated more than $12 million, diverting that money into shell companies, real estate, and even a nightclub and bingo hall. That scheme is now halted in its tracks. My message to every fraudster who steals from the vulnerable is clear: We will track you down, bring charges where the evidence leads, and work relentlessly to reclaim every taxpayer dollar you stole.”

“These defendants are accused of systematically diverting over $12 million in taxpayer funds for personal gain – robbing hardworking American citizens and directly hurting the people those funds are intended to support,” said FBI Director Kash Patel. “Thanks to President Trump’s leadership and our interagency partners, fraud no longer has a safe haven in America. This FBI will act to hold those responsible accountable for their fraud – and today’s arrests demonstrate our continued commitment to protecting every dollar of taxpayer resources and ensuring that public funds are used exactly as intended.”

“Today’s arrests mark a major success for our Homelessness Fraud and Corruption Task Force and this Administration’s commitment to protecting taxpayers,” said First Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli for the Central District of California. “The scale and brazenness of these fraudsters expose a profound failure by the State of California and Los Angeles County to safeguard public funds. Millions intended to house the homeless allegedly financed private real estate, a nightclub, a bingo hall, and personal expenses. Taxpayers deserve accountability. We will follow the money, expose the corruption, and prosecute those who exploit the American people for personal gain.”

“Today’s actions reflect our commitment to protecting taxpayer dollars and ensuring accountability of public funds,” said Special Agent in Charge Darren Lian of the IRS Criminal Investigation’s Los Angeles Field Office. “The evidence uncovered by IRS Criminal Investigation and our law enforcement partners reveals a deliberate scheme to defraud government programs designed to support vulnerable community members who are experiencing homelessness. We will continue to pursue those who steal from the public and hold them accountable.”

“Stealing from programs meant to feed, shelter, and support people experiencing homelessness isn’t just a financial crime – it’s an attack on the most vulnerable communities provided for by HUD programs,” said Acting Inspector General Brian D. Harrison of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Office of Inspector General (HUD-OIG). “HUD-OIG is steadfast in pursuing those who exploit federal housing programs, and this case underscores the strength of our partnerships with law enforcement and prosecutors. Together, we protect taxpayer dollars and deliver justice for victims.”

The two defendants arrested today are expected to make their initial appearances this afternoon in United States District Court in downtown Los Angeles.

The three new criminal cases being announced today are described below, as well as a guilty plea in a previously charged case:

United States v. Young

Michael Young, 46, of Baldwin Hills, a founder of the Culver City-based nonprofit Home At Last (HAL), was arrested today on a federal criminal complaint alleging he engaged in a years-long, complex scheme to defraud taxpayers and public entities providing funding for homeless housing. Some of the affected programs were administered by the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA), the lead agency that coordinates housing and social services for the homeless in Los Angeles County.

Young is charged with wire fraud, a felony that carries a statutory maximum penalty of 20 years in federal prison.

According to the complaint, Young used a web of shell corporations and fraudulent billing practices to misappropriate millions of dollars in taxpayer funds earmarked for homeless housing, including through programs administered by LAHSA.

Among other gross misuses of taxpayer money, Young spent more than $1 million to open and operate a high-end restaurant and nightclub in Inglewood called Six Seven Five Lounge.

Through numerous contracts with LAHSA and other public entities, Young received more than $118 million in public funds from LAHSA, the City of Los Angeles, the County of Los Angeles, and the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development. LAHSA alone paid HAL over $75 million for homeless housing services. Young allegedly used a sham vendor fraud to misappropriate more than $7.5 million of these funds.

Young lied repeatedly during the fraud, according to allegations in the complaint, claiming funds would be used for homeless housing or for vendors providing services for homeless housing, when he diverted large amounts of taxpayer money for personal use and unrelated businesses. He created sham vendors to hide self-dealing transactions, submitting fake bids, forged signatures, and fraudulent invoices to make it appear the sham vendors were legitimate, third-party companies, offering fair market services, when in reality, the vendors had no employees, no locations, no legitimate operations, and existed only to funnel public money back to Young.

Young allegedly controlled the sham vendors’ bank accounts and used millions in taxpayer funds for his personal enrichment, including spending millions for his lounge, luxury vacations, vintage car restorations, and commercial properties unrelated to homeless housing.

In June 2026, LAHSA cancelled its contracts with HAL.

Assistant U.S. Attorneys Kerry L. Quinn, Sarah E. Spielberger, and James C. Hughes (Major Frauds Section), and Tara Vavere (Asset Forfeiture and Recovery Section) for the Central District of California are prosecuting this case.

United States v. Mitchell

Donye Mitchell, 55, also known as “Danya Mitchell,” of Orange, the CEO of a Los Angeles-based homelessness nonprofit, is charged in a federal criminal complaint alleging he was fraudulently awarded more than $1.2 million in grant money from a Los Angeles County-funded nonprofit.

Mitchell is charged with wire fraud, which carries a statutory maximum penalty of 20 years in federal prison. He is considered a fugitive.

According to the complaint, Mitchell is the CEO and executive director of The Big Blue Umbrella (BBU), a Los Angeles-based nonprofit. In January 2024, Mitchell allegedly applied for over $9 million in grant money – and several months later was awarded over $1.2 million – from a separate nonprofit funded by the County of Los Angeles called Epidaurus, which does business as Amity Foundation, to provide housing and mental health services to vulnerable people.

The complaint alleges that Mitchell falsely claimed to Amity that BBU was a major homeless housing provider and misrepresented its work with Special Service for Groups (SSG), through its HOPICS division, a nonprofit administering large amounts of LAHSA funds, despite having no contract and previously displacing SSG clients by failing to pay rent.

After receiving grant funds from Amity Foundation, Mitchell allegedly lied about staffing and spending, instead using the money for personal expenses including inflated salary payments, paying his own bail bond costs, credit card debt, family transfers, rent, and PlayStation charges.

In May 2025, after Amity had disbursed approximately $315,000, it terminated BBU’s contract over concerns that Mitchell was misrepresenting his spending and failing to meet agreed-upon milestones.

Assistant U.S. Attorneys Sarah E. Spielberger and Kerry L. Quinn (Major Frauds Section) and Juan M. Rodriguez (Public Corruption and Civil Rights Section) for the Central District of California are prosecuting this case.

United States v. Malone

Lakiya Malone, 48, of South Los Angeles and an employee of SSG, was arrested on a 21-count federal indictment accusing her of taking more than $180,000 in bribes and kickbacks from Alexander Soofer, the executive director of the nonprofit Abundant Blessings, who is separately charged and has agreed to plead guilty.

In exchange for the bribes and kickbacks, Malone allegedly provided priority referrals of homeless housing participants, including “ghost” participants who never lived at the sites.

Malone’s role at SSG involved referring homeless individuals to housing sites funded by HUD, LAHSA, and the City and County of Los Angeles. According to the indictment, Soofer paid her through checks made out to her and an entity she controlled, Grateful Hearts Realty & Consulting, disguising the payments as consulting fees. In reality, the payments were tied to the number of referrals Malone sent and to “ghost clients” whose files she helped fabricate with fake welcome letters, forged sign in sheets, and falsified eligibility forms.

Soofer allegedly received more than $17 million from SSG during the scheme, inflated substantially by these fraudulent referrals. Malone faces up to 20 years in prison per wire fraud count, 10 years per bribery count, and five years on the conspiracy charge.

Assistant U.S. Attorneys Kerry L. Quinn (Major Frauds Section) and Juan M. Rodriguez (Public Corruption and Civil Rights Section) for the Central District of California are prosecuting this case.

United States v. Soofer – Guilty Plea

Relatedly, Soofer has agreed to plead guilty to one count of wire fraud and one count of money laundering. Soofer admitted in a plea agreement filed today to his role in the bribery scheme with Malone.

He further admitted that he obtained $23 million in public money intended to combat homelessness, at least some of which he admits he obtained through fraud, pocketing at least $2 million in taxpayer money for his own personal enrichment and for businesses unrelated to homeless housing.

Soofer has agreed to forfeit his ill-gotten gains to the U.S. government and is expected to plead guilty to the felony charges in the coming weeks.

Assistant U.S. Attorneys Kerry L. Quinn (Major Frauds Section), Juan M. Rodriguez (Public Corruption and Civil Rights Section), and Mariam Kaloustian and Thi Ho (Asset Forfeiture and Recovery Section) for the Central District of California are prosecuting this case.

The FBI, IRS Criminal Investigation, and HUD-OIG are investigating these cases.

An indictment or complaint is merely an allegation. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.

September 17, 2026 – Judge Boasberg was a nine-time host for Chinese exchange backed by CCP “political warfare” group

September 17, 2026 – 60–65% of the recent spike in fuel comes from Ukraine’s bombing campaign on Russian-refineries

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says Ukrainian forces struck the Yaroslavl oil refinery overnight. The operation involved the SBU, Unmanned Systems Forces, Defense Intelligence (HUR), and Foreign Intelligence Service (SZR). Ukraine’s Security Service also struck a military airfield in Rostov. Confirmed damage includes one An-12, two An-26s, and three helicopters.

The strike comes days after President Donald J. Trump posted to Truth Social on Sept. 14 that Russia and Ukraine had agreed to halt strikes on each other’s energy infrastructure. Zelenskyy disputed that any deal was finalized. He said Ukraine would only pause strikes if Russia genuinely stopped hitting Ukraine’s power grid and other critical infrastructure.

Russia has continued striking Ukrainian civilian infrastructure in the same window. A Sept. 12 Russian strike killed nine people and damaged infrastructure across several regions. Attacks on Ukraine’s energy grid have also intensified as winter approaches.

Zelenskyy Brags About NATO Missile Systems Being Used to Attack Moscow and Russian Refineries

(…) Four days ago, the EU oil disruption from Saudi Arabia’s East/West pipeline event was noticed. In the four days between event day and policy day (#4) the EU have been beating the drumbeat for war against Russia.  However, you will notice the shift in tone and policy now that we have reached day four.  Analysis has reached policy makers. You might say reality sets in.

Europe now recognizes a vulnerability that was not in their policy briefs 96 hours earlier.  Things change {SOURCE}, and the quiet stuff starts to become visible. Russia has been sending France oil/gas energy products, quietly. Macron needed the internal stabilization because he’s been up against a wall.  On top of all his other issues, Macron could not afford an energy crisis.

Simultaneously, despite what we have been told by Western media, the 5,000 strike drones into the Moscow region should again be taken in context.  Russia is an analog system in a digital world. Russia is exceptionally resilient and can repair and recover much faster than western analysts ever fathom.  Again, apply the ‘rule of 96.’

Russia is now overproducing diesel fuel. Wait, what(?) you might ask.  It’s true.  Russian strategic diesel fuel reserves are now full and overproducing 15% beyond storage capacity. {SOURCE} So, where is the excess capacity going?  To the “stans” in Central Asia, from there it ships to forward destinations. Turkey is a dependent beneficiary. Do you remember the strategic agreement between the USA and Kazakhstan? {Source}

Russia increased diesel supplies to Mongolia by 73.4% in August from July to 215,000 metric tons, while shipments to Kyrgyzstan surged 16.4 times to 72,000 tons and deliveries to Tajikistan rose 3.5 times to 56,000 tons. Russia also exported 28,000 tons of diesel to Kazakhstan after making no deliveries there in July. {source}

As the Saudi energy disruption, a problem that travels like boxcar impacts in a train collision, now reaches the EU, the NATO alliance begins to react.  Their policy briefs are different than they were four days ago.

Saudi Arabia is now producing again on the previously closed East/West pipeline; however, it will take time to reach the EU.   A policy window is opened by the disruption.  This is the window where President Trump is operating, and it is timed with the UN General Assembly meeting.

Ukraine has attacked at least 27 of Russia’s 32 major oil refineries (those with significant processing capacity). Only five remote plants in eastern Siberia and the Far East remain unhit, as they currently lie beyond the range of Ukraine’s longest-range drones (roughly 3,500–6,500 km from the border).

This figure comes from the International Energy Agency’s September 2026 assessment (data as of late August) and has been cited in subsequent reporting. Many of the targeted plants have been struck repeatedly—some as many as 15 times. Smaller refineries have also been hit, bringing the total number of unique facilities attacked even higher when counting all plants rather than just the major ones. iea.org

The campaign intensified sharply from mid-2025 onward. By mid-2026 Ukraine had already struck all 11 of Russia’s largest refineries, including the previously out-of-reach Omsk plant (Russia’s biggest) in July 2026. Additional strikes continued into September 2026 on previously targeted sites such as the Moscow, Ufa, and Samara-area refineries. united24media.com

Exact counts vary slightly by source depending on how “major” is defined and whether smaller plants are included, but the IEA’s 27-out-of-32 figure for large refineries is the most consistent recent benchmark.(Grok, 9/22/2026)

September 18, 2026 – Trump announces he has banned CNN, MSNOW, and Politico from the White House for constantly reporting “fake news”

I am proud to announce that, effective immediately, I am banning Fake News CNN, MSNOW (who recently changed their name from MSNBC due to lack of viewership and credibility!), and Politico (The recipients of an illegal and ridiculous $8 Million Dollar subscription, an All Time Record, directly from the United States Government, under Crooked Joe Biden, in order to keep them “alive.” Seems like corruption to me!), from the White House as a result of their constant “reporting” FAKE NEWS! Media Outlets shouldn’t be able to constantly write or report FICTION and LIES when they’re covering the President of the United States, the Trump Administration, or the United States of America. Other Fake News Media Outlets to follow. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP

On Saturday, September 19, journalists from the three outlets were denied entry to White House grounds and had their badges confiscated. CNN, Politico, and MS NOW all said they would continue reporting and would challenge the restriction as a violation of the First Amendment. Legal analysts have noted that viewpoint-based exclusion from White House access is likely to face court challenges.

But that’s exactly what @BarackObama did.

— Oct. 22, 2009: Treasury planned to make “pay czar” Kenneth Feinberg available to every network pool member except Fox.

— The Washington bureau chiefs of ABC, CBS, CNN & NBC said they wouldn’t interview Feinberg if Fox was shut out, noting it broke pool rules. The administration relented.

— This came amid the broader feud, with Anita Dunn saying “we’re not going to legitimize them as a news organization.”

— At the time, Treasury called it “much ado about absolutely nothing” & denied any plot.

— In 2011, Judicial Watch FOIA’d emails showing otherwise: White House broadcast media director Dag Vega wrote Treasury that they’d prefer Fox be skipped, & Josh Earnest wrote that they’d shown their willingness & ability to exclude Fox from significant interviews.

@jrpsaki called Bret Baier a “lunatic” & joked about putting dead fish in the Fox cubby.

He also spent most of his presidency complaining about Fox News, saying they’re bad for the country, likening them to terrorists, etc.

Trump admin welcomes new media to White House Briefing Room, vows to restore 400+ press passes revoked by Biden (1/28/2025)

If only we had Supreme Court precedents on this exact issue.

Talk to SCOTUS about it.

Houchins v. KQED (1978): The First Amendment does not require the government to give the press access to information or places under government control. It “is neither a Freedom of Information Act nor an Official Secrets Act.” The press’s core protection is the right to communicate information once obtained, not a right to collect it from the government.

Pell v. Procunier (1974) and related cases: The press has no constitutional right to information or locations not available to the public generally.

Zemel v. Rusk (1965): “Entry into the White House [is not] a First Amendment right. The right to speak and publish does not carry with it the unrestrained right to gather information.”

September 18, 2026 – AI doomers at work: Anthropic opens ‘wet lab’ for biology experiments

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei  (Credit: Ludovic MARIN / AFP)

Dario Amodei’s Anthropic, which has spent the last week pushing a campaign of fear about AI advancement, has revealed it built a “wet lab” to conduct AI-driven biology experiments.

Reuters reports that Dario Amodei’s Anthropic has confirmed that it operates a wet biology laboratory in the Bay Area where the company uses its AI models to conduct physical experiments. A wet lab is a facility that specifically deals with hazardous liquids or biological samples.

The revelation comes at an interesting time, as Amodei has led a campaign of AI doomers calling for a slowdown on AI technology across the board. Critics like the Big Short’s Steve Eisman argue that Amodei’s goal is to create a moat around his business to protect it from competition.

Eric Kauderer-Abrams, Anthropic’s head of life sciences, explained the company’s approach to biological research. “We believe that to do biology, the final test is still, and will be for a while, in real lab work,” Kauderer-Abrams told Reuters. “We absolutely are doing that today.” He described the laboratory’s operations as similar to typical biotech facilities, with Anthropic conducting some research internally while also collaborating with external partners.

In April, the company acquired Coefficient Bio, a stealth AI biotech startup, signaling its intentions to expand into biological research. The company indicated that its primary focus is fundamental biology rather than drug discovery. This positioning appears strategic, as Anthropic maintains numerous relationships with major pharmaceutical companies as both customers and partners. The company recently announced a collaboration with Novo Nordisk focused on joint drug discovery efforts.

Last weekend, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei shocked the AI community with a call to slow down AI development in the [n]ame of safety:

Amodei’s essay lays out a three-step plan meant to temper the AI industry’s development pace without stopping it outright. “To be clear, pacing does not mean halting model training or technical progress, but ensuring companies take adequate time to align and safeguard their models, and for third party evaluators to confirm this,” he wrote.

Anthropic claims it has already taken the first step itself. The company has “unilaterally” committed to giving third-party evaluators employee-level access so they can verify its safety practices and report incidents, a move Amodei said comes without “sacrificing commercial advantage or the United States’ lead in AI.” The second step calls on leading AI companies in democratic countries to coordinate around common safety standards. The third, and most ambitious, asks for coordination between democratic and authoritarian governments.

The contrast between these stark warnings and the establishment of a wet biology laboratory has not escaped notice within the technology sector. Investor and AI coding startup founder Chamath Palihapitiya commented on the situation through social media platform X, posting with apparent irony: “The group behind such hits as: ‘We’re All Going To Die’ and ‘Regulate Me Now’ are building a wet lab in SF. I do not recommend this.”

September 17, 2026 – The chief judge of Minneapolis federal bench discloses the collaboration of all judges to obstruct legal proceedings related to immigration cases

In a stunning political move, the chief judge of the Minneapolis federal bench disclosed the behind the scenes collaboration between all judges to thwart legal proceedings related to immigration cases this year.

Patrick Schiltz, who admitted his longtime involvement in a pro-migrant nonprofit, reveals how judges remained on their cell phones nonstop to halt deportation proceedings. And rather than evaluate each case individually—as is required—the judges developed pro forma orders (as I predicted) to immediately stop cases in their tracks.

This is something:

Schiltz: “Some judges built templates of legal orders so they could respond quickly to some of the detention issues that were arising again and again.”

I covered Schiltz’s bogus list of alleged “contempt” by the Trump DOJ earlier this year.

Now Schiltz is backpedaling on his accusations. What appeared to be at the time—according to Schiltz—intentional defiance of court orders, Schiltz now describes as incompetence by prosecutors.

Never mind that Schiltz has now revealed stunning cloakroom collaboration to sabotage each case and create unreasonable deadlines and demands in the process.

“My impression was that most, if not all, of the noncompliance was due to incompetence not due to conscious defiance of orders.”

Correction to first post: It appears Schiltz recently stepped down as chief judge.

According to Schiltz, Schiltz and his colleagues are the only ones stopping the U.S. from turning into a brutal regime.

This is some level of megalomania:

Schiltz: “The rule of law to democracy is like oxygen to a human body. It is something that you absolutely need to survive, and yet it’s something that people just take for granted.

Obedience to court orders, Judge Schiltz said, is why people feel secure owning a home, saving money, getting married and having children.

‘You walk down the street, and you assume you’re generally safe because of the law. It’s the rule of law. If you don’t have it, you have either anarchy or you have authoritarianism. You have Russia or you have China or you have North Korea.”

Judge Patrick Schiltz, an appointee of former President George W. Bush, and his wife were listed in a 2019 annual report for the organization, the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota, which routinely condemns the Trump administration and advertises free legal advice for immigrants, refugees and people detained by ICE.

Schiltz told Fox News Digital in a statement he has “donated for many years to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota.”

September 19, 2026 – NY AG Letitia James seized nuns’ $19 million two years ago and won’t release it so they can care for aging members

For 123 years, the Sisters of the Congregation of Divine Providence devoted their time and money to help young women in Manhattan through the Jeanne D’Arc Residence.

Jeanne d’Arc Residence is dedicated to creating a welcoming and caring environment for women seeking safe, affordable and temporary housing in . Through the ministry provided at Jeanne d’Arc Residence, the Sisters of Divine Providence are committed to ensuring a Christian environment which serves women of all nationalities, cultures and religions. In this setting, the good news of Jesus Christ is lived and proclaimed in the spirit of Providence.”

The nuns, whose order is based in Kentucky, have seen their number shrink and their population age.  The cost of continuing to run the residence has become too much to bear as they face caring for their own elderly sisters.

The sisters sold the property to John Catsimidis for $22.5 million. Because the property is part of a registered charitable organization, Letitia James’ office must, and did, approve the sale.

But devoting over a century to vulnerable women in the city is not enough for James.  Her office seized the proceeds of the sale and, for two years, has refused to release it to them.

James’ reason? She doesn’t like what the nuns will do with their money.

Per The Free Press:

The ’s office told The Free Press that the religious order never provided “a breakdown of what they plan to do with the funds,” even though Christine Sama, the sisters’ lawyer, had told state officials in a January letter that the money would be used “to carry out the exact same activities as Jeanne d’Arc.”

In an interview, Sama told The Free Press that state officials objected to plans by the religious order to use the money to care for aging sisters at Holy Family Home, the order’s retirement home in Kentucky. They also plan to support their other ministries, which include running a local emergency shelter, supporting immigrant resettlement, and operating health clinics and schools in rural Madagascar.

“They are saying that use is not sufficiently similar” to the building that the sisters sold, Sama said.

James has a history of targeting Catholics. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 9/19/2026)  (Archive)

The property at issue was owned by a New York not-for-profit, The Jeanne d’Arc Residence (originally the Jeanne d’Arc Home for Friendless French Girls), which ran a women’s boarding house in Manhattan for 123 years and planned to dissolve after the sale. James’s office approved the $22.5 million sale to John Catsimatidis’s Red Apple Group and released some funds for carrying costs, taxes, and fees. It has not released the remaining ~$19.3 million because it contends the proposed uses—supporting the Kentucky-based Congregation of Divine Providence’s retirement home for aging sisters plus other ministries (a shelter, immigrant work, and clinics/schools in Madagascar)—are not sufficiently similar to the original New York purpose of housing young women in the city.

That is how the charities-oversight statute works: the AG can condition or withhold release of proceeds until a plan is accepted as consistent with the dissolving charity’s purposes. Whether the AG is applying that standard too rigidly here is a policy and legal dispute; the legal authority being used is the standard N-PCL asset-sale provision, not a one-off targeting law.

September 20, 2026 – Michigan Sheriff Dar Leaf refers SoS Jocelyn Benson’s chief attorney to feds for interfering In criminal investigation

In his first of a series of videotaped explanations about his ongoing investigation into a Secretary of State employee’s whistleblower claim, Barry County Sheriff Dar Leaf explains how the whistleblower — “now a protected confidential informant” — brought his office evidence that “non-citizens were automatically added to Michigan’s voter roll when they changed an address at an SOS branch,” and that his office sent that evidence to the federal government. An SOS manager, Leaf says, admitted knowing about the automatic placements and told the employee not to worry: city clerks would pull the non-citizens off. Leaf calls that a lie. Municipal and county clerks, he says, cannot see citizenship on the Qualified Voter File. “They do not have the data to do so,” he said. Sheriff Leaf says the criminal investigation is ongoing, his office is working with the Department of Justice and Homeland Security, and those agencies have already interviewed witnesses. He calls the case “extremely serious.”

“My office has continued its investigation and is cooperating with the federal government,” Leaf said, adding, “The federal government — the United States Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security — have spoken and interviewed witnesses.”

Watch:

In his second video, Sheriff Dar Leaf says Michigan Department of State Chief Legal Director Khyla D. Craine wrote him that branch staff are not authorized to give law enforcement information on a verbal request, accused him of contacting Elections Director Jonathan Brater outside official channels, and accused him of harassing SOS staff. Leaf posted her letter on his X account.

Sheriff Leaf explained to Benson’s chief legal counsel that he does not need her permission to interview witnesses in a criminal investigation that includes SOS management and the automatic placement of non-citizens on the voter roll — and that going through her “chain of command” is how obstruction happens. The sheriff says he is referring Craine to the federal government for “obstruction of justice, witness intimidation, and related charges.”

“Ms. Craine, your law license does not give you permission to violate the law or obstruct criminal investigations. The non-citizen investigation is a federal investigation. Michigan just held a primary election for federal offices, and in November of 2026 a general election will be held. You may not interfere with any law enforcement investigation,” Sheriff Leaf warned.

In his next video, Sheriff Dar Leaf hits Jocelyn Benson’s Director of Elections, the same incompetent election official who was behind ensuring the Citizens Only Voting petition with over 700K signatures from citizens across the state was rejected in the 11th hour by the Board of Canvassers after he and his crack staff of “signature experts” determined that the petition was 3 signatures short of being qualified after their “random sampling” turned up signatures that they deemed to be mismatches with the QVF.

Barry County Sheriff Dar Leaf says the purge started as soon as he went public with the whistleblower’s claim. In the clip he calls “part two,” Leaf says that immediately after his press release about a Secretary of State whistleblower, Michigan Elections Director “Jonathan Brater and staff working under him began pulling people off the Qualified Voter File and told municipal clerks to delete the local master cards.” He explains, “Those cards,” Leaf says, “are the clerk’s proof that a person was on the roll.” He cites MCL 168.514, which requires a canceled master card be kept for years, and calls Brater’s instruction unlawful. Leaf says “Brater has testified under oath that the state does not keep a permanent QVF record — so the master card is the evidence of who is being removed.” Leaf says, “Ordering those cards destroyed is destruction of evidence of illegal registrations.” He says “his investigation, like the federal investigation, is ongoing.”

Watch

My investigation has been obstructed by Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson and her staff!”

The third and final video says his investigation — like the federal one — is ongoing and he is required to interview witnesses. He went to talk to a manager who, Leaf says, documented the automatic registration of non-citizens on the voter roll. The man gave him a scripted answer: the Secretary of State’s office would not let him speak. Leaf says asking for a full name and date of birth is standard in any case, including a murder investigation, and that he will document every witness and suspect the same way. He says that an employee and a district manager were told in advance not to cooperate. He recorded the interviews.

“I went to interview a critical witness — a manager who documented the non-citizen automatic registration on the voter roll. I was polite to this witness, and he gave me a scripted response that he was not permitted by the Secretary of State’s office to speak with me,” Sheriff Leaf explained.

Watch:

In his final video, Barry County Sheriff Dar Leaf claims there is a cover-up that includes gagging witnesses and wiping poll books. In his latest video he says his office has evidence that Melissa Thomas and other managers are telling whistleblowers they may not report crimes to law enforcement — conduct he calls a crime — and that Thomas will be referred for a federal investigation. Leaf says that on September 16, 2026, a Court of Appeals judge told Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson to notify all clerks that electronic poll book data must be preserved and issued an injunction barring deletion of that data in Washtenaw County. Municipal clerks, he says, report they never got that email. The Barry County Sheriff’s Office is now telling every clerk to keep electronic poll book data from all elections for 22 months, as required by federal law and MCL 168.811. Anyone with information, Leaf says, can contact his office and be treated as a confidential informant.

September 21, 2026 – Paramount CEO David Ellison clears final legal hurdles to purchase CNN and CBS

While MAGA celebrated and approved of Trump’s action to kick CNN, MSNOW and Politico out of the White House press pool, I think there’s something bigger happening.

Does anybody think the timing was a coincidence?

What are the odds that Trump knew all about this coming agreement?

(Brave search)

“On September 21, 2026, Paramount reached a settlement with a 12-state antitrust lawsuit, clearing the final legal hurdle for the deal.”

“CEO David Ellison stated the acquisition is expected to close in approximately two weeks, placing CNN and CBS News under the same corporate ownership by early October.”

David Ellison is a huge Trump supporter and a “strategic partner” in Trump’s PLAN.

If you don’t have a Paramount+ account, I would encourage you. It’s going to continue to grow and rival all the leftwing streaming and Hollywood propagandists.

Landman and Lioness are two excellent series with more conservative themes and truth.

But how do you transform the Mockingbird media and how do you PREVENT it from becoming centralized and controlled in the future?

COMPETITION.

Trump included CNN in the White House ban for a reason.

They are about to get a new “boss” that is going to demand fair and honest news reporting.

What does that ultimately mean?

Many of the current broadcast personalities on CNN, aren’t going to be working there much longer.

Bari Weiss has ALREADY started a house cleaning at CBS News and the left was having a stroke.

Trump placed CNN, who touts themselves as a “news” organization, in the same category as MSNOW and Politico, which everyone knows are partisan rags.

Even fake FOX News is objecting.

Why would FOX News stand with their “competitor” instead of celebrating their demise?

Because politics is just a GAME.

A GAME of division to pit one side against the other and distract the people.

Left vs right.

Liberal vs conservative.

It’s a joke. Both sides lie to their audiences in order to influence them rather than just reporting the TRUTH.

I don’t believe FOX News would be protesting Trump’s move if he hadn’t included CNN.

Both networks create “material” for each other, while preaching to the choir.

And at the same time, downplaying and ignoring everything that’s important.

Especially Trump’s many unprecedented accomplishments.

By kicking CNN out of the White House, Trump has helped “set the table” for Ellison to step to the plate and demand a complete transformation of CNN and a return to news reporting.

We are only at the beginning.

Wait till FOX News has to compete with CBS and CNN for “fair and balanced” news coverage.

Ellison’s purchase is THE GAME CHANGER.

The PLAN in action for anybody willing to see it.

Trump is looking far into the future.

September 21, 2026 – Biden DOJ buried photos exposing the two-tiered “justice” system that shielded Joe Biden while trying to destroy Donald Trump

The Oversight Project secured and is releasing photographic evidence from the search of the Penn Biden Center and Joe Biden’s Wilmington, Delaware home — images the government fought for years to keep hidden, and pried loose only after sustained litigation by the Oversight Project. The pictures confirm what many suspected all along: Joe Biden got the kid-glove treatment, while President Trump was presumed guilty.

The newly released photos show FBI agents at the Penn Biden Center and Biden’s Wilmington home handling classified materials with visible care — organized, contained, undisturbed, and literally wearing gloves. Compare that to Mar-a-Lago, where agents dumped documents across the floor for cameras to capture — images that were leaked and blasted across every front page within days, priming the public to see Trump as guilty before a single charge was filed. Two completely different postures — one designed to protect a reputation, the other to destroy one.

At Mar-a-Lago, agents laid classified cover sheets on top of Trump’s documents before photographing them — a choice that manufactured the visual impression of grave, top-secret material, feeding a media narrative before any legal process had run its course. At Biden’s properties, no such cover sheets appear. The documents were cataloged without the theatrical markers that had turned Trump’s search into a media event — even though, by DOJ’s own admission, Biden retained genuinely classified material too, even though as a prior Senator and Vice President, he had zero authority to declassify documents by oral or written order or by course of conduct, distinguishing him from President Trump in January 2021. The message the photos send is unmistakable: create the appearance of danger when it’s Trump, but quietly minimize it when it’s Biden.

As the photographic evidence demonstrates, Biden commingled the classified information in his desk drawer as part of his notes gathering process for writing his book “Promise Me, Dad.” This establishes that Biden not only removed classified information from the White House when he left as Vice President (18 USC 1924), but he did so for the purpose of disclosing that information (18 USC 798) to make money. With these facts established, the Department of Justice should immediately renew its investigation to determine if it is proper to claw back the profits that Joe Biden made from the book because those profits were made as a result of his unauthorized retention and disclosure of classified information.

These photos are not just historical curiosities — they are proof. Proof that the FBI and DOJ made deliberate choices at every stage of these two investigations: how documents were handled, how images were staged, and how those images were released to the public. Every one of those choices broke in the same direction — toward protecting Joe Biden and toward incriminating Donald Trump in the court of public opinion before he ever saw the inside of a courtroom. The American people deserve equal justice under the law. These images show they didn’t get it. The Oversight Project will continue to pursue records the government would rather keep buried.

Oversight Project President Mike Howell gave this statement:

“The Oversight Project is a dog on the bone. We don’t get accountability as much as we should because people simply move on. We don’t. What Biden did to this country was awful and so many people in positions of authority looked the other way or gave him amnesty for blatant abuse of our laws.”

Oversight Project Vice President of Litigation Jeff Clark gave this statement:

“The photographic evidence released today lays bare a glaring double standard in how the Department of Justice and the FBI conduct high-profile investigations. While President Trump was subjected to a public spectacle designed to prejudge his guilt, the Biden handling was managed with kid gloves to protect a reputation. The American people expect and deserve equal justice under the law, and we will continue using every legal avenue to ensure transparency and accountability. DOJ should now claw Joe Biden’s book profits from him.”

Democracy Restored sent a letter to DHS Secretary Mullin calling for a review of the department’s contracts with Microsoft.

Recently declassified documents revealed the company’s director of insider risk, former FBI official Nikki Floris, allegedly withheld CCP election interference intelligence from the president ahead of the 2020 election. Floris also claimed that she was “basically running a shadow government across the FBI.”

Floris’ alleged activity and subsequent employment with one of the largest government vendors that handles critical digital infrastructure and services necessitates serious scrutiny. Especially in light of Microsoft’s recent history with contracting engineers based in China.

September 22, 2026 – DHS releases a list of false claims about the shooting of illegal alien in Texas

DHS releases a bullet-point list of what they say are false claims about the shooting of a Venezuelan illegal alien in Austin, TX. They say claims that he was legal and had a valid work permit are false.

Per DHS:

“CLAIM: ICE refused to remove the bullet from the illegal alien’s body.

FACT: This is false. ICE does not and would not advise, nor be the authority on, a medical procedure for an illegal alien at a hospital.

CLAIM: The illegal alien had a valid work permit.

FACT: This is false. The illegal alien’s work permit expired in 2025. Furthermore, a work permit does NOT grant legal status.

CLAIM: The illegal alien was ordered removed in absentia.

FACT: Yes. This is why aliens must show up to their removal proceedings. Legal obligations do not end because someone’s address changed.

CLAIM: This illegal alien is here legally.

FACT: This is false. This person is in the U.S. illegally. He entered illegally under the Biden Administration. The illegal alien had no valid work permit, had no protective status, and had a final order of removal from a Department of Justice (DOJ) Immigration Judge.

CLAIM: This illegal alien has received no pain medication.

FACT: This is false. This illegal alien is receiving medical care around the clock, including pain medication.

CLAIM: The illegal alien has been forced to sleep on the floor.

FACT: This is false. This alien was released from the hospital and arrived at the detention facility just a few hours later, where he slept on a bed. Aliens in ICE custody receive a higher standard of living than most prisons that hold U.S. citizens.

CLAIM: This illegal alien was indiscriminately targeted by ICE.

FACT: This is false. This illegal alien was the subject of a targeted vehicle stop. What makes someone a target for immigration enforcement is whether or not they are illegally in the U.S.

DHS Sec. Mullin statement:

“Sanctuary politicians and the mainstream media have wasted no time in spreading lies about an ICE officer-involved shooting of an illegal alien in Austin, Texas,” said Secretary Markwayne Mullin. “Contrary to their claims, this person is an illegal alien who has no legal status to be here and has been given some of the best medical care he’s ever received in his life. No amount of smears and false narratives will slow down ICE from doing its job by removing dangerous illegal aliens from our communities and making America safe again. Sanctuary politicians may continue to shamelessly protect illegal aliens, but the Trump Administration will remain focused on protecting the American people.”

AUSTIN’S POLICE CHIEF JUST TORCHED THE LEFT’S ICE SHOOTING NARRATIVE IN REAL TIME.

A city councilman ran to the cameras claiming ICE sideswiped a man and shot him five times through the back window. The chief said that is not what he’s hearing. There was a small foot pursuit. It was one gunshot wound. The man’s wife already admitted he tried to drive off while agents were on him, even with an ICE vehicle blocking his car.

He is alive and stable. The activists still got their smear out first. This is how they operate. Lie early, print loud, correct never.

Wait for the facts. Back the officers. Stop letting city hall write the crime scene before the police do. https://x.com/nicksortor/status/2101789607964889248/video/1

September 22, 2026 – Secretary Hegseth directs the Department of War to treat foreign election interference as a priority mission for the 2026 midterms

Secretary Hegseth is directing the Department of War to treat foreign election interference as a priority mission for the 2026 midterms. 🔥

In a Sept. 22nd memo to U.S. Cyber Command, NSA, DIA, and NGA, he ordered three things:

1. Prioritize intel and cyber work so foreign actors cannot meddle in U.S. voting systems.

2. Have the Defense Intelligence Enterprise collect and produce on foreign threats to the elections, within existing law and policy.

3. Have Cyber Command work with DHS to counter foreign cyber threats aimed at the elections.

“As President Trump has emphasized, “free and fair elections are the foundation of our republic” and we must always work to protect our voting systems because “no country can be great without fair elections.””

“Freedom does not happen by accident. It requires constant vigilance, and today, that responsibility falls heavily on the DIE.

I am therefore directing the entire DIE to mobilize every authorized asset, capability, and partnership under your command to defend our election infrastructure from foreign malign influence and ensure that every lawful voter can cast their ballot free from foreign intimidation, coercion, or fear. In America, the people rule — and we must ensure that their voice remains sovereign, secure, and entirely undiluted.”

September 22, 2026 – Trump admin eliminates 760,000 bogus Obamacare enrollments

Vice President JD Vance’s anti-fraud task force is poised to boot more than 700,000 individuals from the Affordable Care Act’s exchanges amid alleged fraud, The Wall Street Journal first reported Tuesday.

Vance and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz plan to announce they are halting subsidy payments for allegedly improper and fraudulent ACA enrollments for 760,000 individual accounts, the WSJ reported, citing anonymous Trump administration officials. The move comes as the administration has been cracking down on healthcare fraud ahead of November’s midterm elections.

According to the administration officials, the enforcement action would save an estimated $2.2 billion in taxpayer funding, the WSJ reported.

Officials also told the outlet that those enrollees include individuals who did not realize that they were enrolled in Obamacare, are ineligible to be enrolled in the ACA’s exchanges because they already have employer-sponsored healthcare or earn an annual income more than 400% above the federal poverty level.

September 22, 2026 – Sunny Hostin of The View was a holdout juror for man who killed girlfriend, boiled her, and fed to the homeless in a NY park

In the same episode, Sara Haines says she can’t understand WHEN Patrick Clancy’s “marital love” for Lindsey ended and WHY he wanted to get a divorce. She hopes her husband Max wouldn’t leave her if she killed their kids:

“How did the marital love end so quickly when you admit openly your wife got sick, she got sick. It doesn’t mean you can be with them and it doesn’t mean it doesn’t remind you of the worst day of your life. (…) They were tragically, their arms were around her as she was going down the drain. I would hope that my husband wouldn’t sit there and just move right along.”

(Archived link to NYT article)

UPDATE 9/25/2026

There are conflicting stories as to Sunny Hostin being the holdout juror:

This is the funniest thing on the internet this morning.

Turns out Sunny Hostin was lying about being the lone holdout juror who got The Butcher of Tompkins Square Park off on murder charges.

The holdout was an unemployed guy who wanted the $15/day juror stipend to continue, and Hostin is quoted as being upset he got off:

“He knew what he was doing.”

Earth to Sunny, the truth makes you look far better than the lie!

(…) NewsBusters Associate Editor Nicholas Fondacaro reported on the story as well, noting that while multiple sources had written about an unemployed male holdout juror, multiple sources had also said that there were two holdout jurors.

“Outside the courtroom at State Supreme Court in Lower Manhattan, jurors said that at the end of deliberations, 10 members of the panel wanted to convict Rakowitz of murder, but two others insisted he was mentally ill and should not be held responsible for Beerle’s death. They said the 10 decided to defer to the two holdouts to avoid a hung jury,” the Newsday article said.

The news article had gone on to indeed mention Hostin, under the surname of Cummings at the time.

“The jurors said that one of the two panel members seeking the insanity acquittal wanted the deliberations to drag on for days.

“‘He was unemployed and liked the $15 a day and the three free meals. He liked that we were arguing on and on,’ said juror Valerie Holmes, a 35-year-old clerk,’” the article continued. “‘We had to compromise,’ said Asuncion Cummings, a 22-year-old paralegal. ‘But it is obvious to me he butchered the body and he literally got away with murder. He attempted to commit the perfect crime.’” (Read more: WFMD, 9/25/2026)  (Archive)

September 22, 2026 – Judge Kelly does not restore press passes for CNN, MS NOW and Politico; press credentials remain revoked – Update: Judge issues 14 day TRO

PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED IN COURT TODAY.

Judge Timothy Kelly (Credit: Wikipedia)

Judge Timothy Kelly did NOT automatically restore CNN, MS NOW, or Politico’s White House press passes. He heard the arguments, did not issue a ruling from the bench, and their credentials remain revoked for now.

That matters.

Because the DOJ’s argument was NOT simply that these reporters were rude to President Trump.

The administration accused these outlets of publishing sensitive or classified information and reporting that raised serious national security concerns.

And DOJ laid out specific examples.

🔴 MS NOW: Reporting involving the Iran war, U.S. military munitions, and an alleged leak investigation.

🔴 Politico: Reporting involving Secret Service security improvements connected to the ballroom, discussions over Russia sanctions, and a story based on anonymous sources about the Republican congressional midterm convention.

The administration argued that publishing sensitive information can create national security risks and force officials to determine whether information is classified and what consequences its disclosure could have.

DOJ also made a much broader legal argument: “Access to the White House is a privilege — not a right.” The government is asking the court to recognize broad presidential authority over White House press access and has even argued that the precedent governing White House press credentials should be overturned.

And after hearing all of this today, THE BADGES STAYED PULLED.

So no, this case is not simply about Trump being upset because reporters asked tough questions.

We’re talking about allegations involving classified information, national security, military operations, White House security, and the scope of presidential authority over press access.

Read the filings. Read what was actually argued in court.

UPDATE 9/24/2026

BREAKING OVERNIGHT: A federal judge has hereby RESCINDED President Trump’s block on CNN, MSNOW and POLITICO accessing the White House

Trump SAW THIS COMING and already said he’d be appealing it when that decision was handed down

Looks like they will return TODAY unless they want to keep throwing a fit.

“The Judge’s name is Tim Kelly, and he was, sadly, appointed by “TRUMP.” In other words, almost without question and, as usual, we’ll go for appeal because Fake News people and publications that only write negatively, and who violate our National Security by writing false and defamatory stories with unknown “sources,” shouldn’t be allowed access to the most important Office anywhere in the World.”

Yes. U.S. District Judge Timothy J. Kelly granted a 14-day temporary restraining order early on September 24, 2026. (variety.com}

The order directed the White House to immediately return, reinstate, and restore the “hard pass” press credentials of CNN, MS NOW, and Politico employees that had been revoked around September 18. It remains in effect for 14 days (or until a further court order) while the lawsuit proceeds.
(politico.com)

Kelly, a Trump appointee, found the outlets were likely to succeed at least on their Fifth Amendment due-process claim because they received no notice or opportunity to be heard before the revocations. He was also skeptical of the administration’s later national-security rationale, noting that President Trump had publicly cited the outlets’ “lack of truthfulness and negativity.” (krdo.com)

September 23, 2026 – The new leftwing Prime Minister of Britain, Andy Burnham, plans to create a “Ministry of Truth” to control news and opinions

September 23, 2026 – Resolution 26: The Socialist plot to radicalize Democrats across America

BlazeTV host Liz Wheeler is joined by Stu Smith, investigative analyst at City Journal, a publication of the Manhattan Institute, to discuss Resolution 26, the DSA’s radical plot to form a mass revolutionary force and uprising against law enforcement.

The document people are referring to as “Resolution 26” is R26: Fight Fascist State Repression & ICE, a resolution submitted to and adopted at the Democratic Socialists of America’s 2025 National Convention.⁠Rocdsa

It is a real DSA convention resolution, not a leaked secret plot. It was submitted by members from chapters including Philadelphia, New York City, Portland, Denver, East Bay, and Connecticut, gathered hundreds of member signatures, and passed on the consent agenda.⁠Docs.google

What it actually does
The resolution frames Trump-era immigration enforcement and political crackdowns as “fascist repression.” Its main directives are:

Make a national Abolish ICE campaign a 2025–2027 organizational priority.
Support local/state campaigns for abolitionist demands (cut police budgets, end cash bail, etc.).
Strengthen internal “security” infrastructure, including the Red Rabbits group (protest marshaling, jail support, community defense training).
The line that generated the “revolutionary uprising” framing is this resolved clause:

The National Abolition Working Group and Red Rabbits will … submit a report … detailing immediately actionable steps that DSA can take on local, regional, and national levels to better prepare the organization for a national uprising against federal agents and police brutality.⁠Docs.google

That sentence is in the adopted text. Critics (New York Post and others) treat it as a plan for an uprising against law enforcement. DSA authors treat it as language about mass protest, rapid response to ICE raids, and “community defense” in the style of 2020 protests and sanctuary organizing.⁠NY Post

Where to read it
The controlling source is the official 2025 DSA Convention Proposals Compendium:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dQO_nuhN-DdlpbvrlaGuFwIbUYIGRRb1T0bNdvLNDwU/mobilebasic

Search that document for “R26: Fight Fascist State Repression & ICE”. Chapter summaries also appear on Springs of Revolution and in convention recaps.⁠Sordsa

Follow-on work after passage included forming an Abolish ICE steering committee and expanding Red Rabbits training (de-escalation, first aid, protest marshaling, self-defense). That is public organizational follow-through, not a hidden annex.⁠City-journal

If you want the exact full “whereas / resolved” text pasted section by section from the compendium, say so and I can pull the remaining clauses. (Links/Grok, 9/29/2026)

September 23, 2026 – Marco Rubio: The rules-based international order is failing and America will continue to act alone when necessary

The rules-based international order is failing and America will continue to act alone when necessary, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Wednesday, in a stark assessment of the post-Second World War system the US was key in building.

, Mr Rubio said countries had been unable to work in unison to tackle crises around the world, including a war between Thailand and Cambodia, Sudan’s civil war and the conflict with Iran.

“There’s unanimity and consensus here in this gathering, and broadly, that the international system is broken,” he said. “It’s broken because it broke itself. It needs to be brought back to its proper focus and its proper role.”

He added that it was “failing because it has grown beyond its mandate”.

The US was a primary architect of an international system that was supposed to encourage co-operation between countries to manage crises. Instead, the UN and other bodies have struggled to take meaningful action in averting or ending wars, refugee crises and other international issues.

Mr Rubio said the US would continue to operate unilaterally if need be, if it is in its own interests.

September 23, 2026 – How Jack Smith and the Biden-Harris DOJ disregarded the separation of powers to spy on their political opposition: Report

Today, the House Judiciary Committee released an interim staff report titled, “How Jack Smith and the Biden-Harris Department of Justice Disregarded the Separation of Powers to Spy on their Political Opposition.” The report reveals new information obtained by the Committee in the 119th Congress that shows the Biden-Harris Administration’s efforts to use the Department of Justice (DOJ) as a weapon against its political opponents.

During the Biden-Harris DOJ’s investigation of the 2020 election, codenamed Arctic Frost, and the subsequent Special Counsel investigation, investigators unconstitutionally subpoenaed phone records for over a dozen Republican Members of Congress and obtained gag orders to prevent the Members from knowing that the Biden-Harris Administration had obtained these records. Because the subpoenas and gag orders were obtained ex parte—meaning only the prosecutors presented to the grand jury and judge—the Members had no meaningful opportunity to challenge the Biden-Harris Administration’s actions.

The evidence available to the Committee shows that Special Counsel Smith’s team barely considered the constitutional protections surrounding this material—and to the extent that it did, it concluded that its subpoenas might be unconstitutional. Yet, Special Counsel Smith’s team forged ahead, issued the subpoenas, and at one point, violated the DOJ’s own procedures to review the content of private text messages between 44 Members of Congress and Executive Branch officials.

Arctic Frost investigators and Smith’s team paid no attention to the Constitution’s “absolute” bar on compelled disclosure of documents related to Members’ legislative acts. Special Counsel Smith and his prosecutors admitted that the gag order deprived Members of the chance to appear in court to assert their constitutional rights under the Speech or Debate Clause. As Special Counsel Smith admitted privately to Attorney General Merrick Garland, “members . . . likely have a valid Speech or Debate privilege immunizing them from compelled testimony.” Yet he, with Attorney General Garland’s blessing, issued subpoenas compelling the production of Members’ protected legislative records.

At best, these prosecutors ignored key legislative protections enshrined in the Constitution to guarantee that Members of Congress may freely deliberate on the questions of public policy. At worst—which seems likely in context with the other abuses of Special Counsel Smith’s office—these prosecutors weaponized their law-enforcement authority to violate a key constitutional provision to gather reams of information about their Administration’s political adversaries.

The abuses uncovered demand legislative reforms to prevent a future Jack Smith from similarly violating the Constitution. On July 15, 2026, the Committee passed H.R. 9098, the Congressional Records Protection Act, introduced by Rep. Mike Kelly (R-PA). The bill seeks to protect the separation of powers enshrined in the United States Constitution and end the weaponized surveillance of Members of Congress. The Committee will continue to pursue the truth about this critical set of events in our nation’s history.

September 23, 2026 – Kamala Harris says cleaning the voter rolls is “cheating” – “They’re trying to take our tools, but we are a creative people”

September 24, 2026 – Dems use the old impeachment tactic to help in midterms: House Democrat drops 26-article impeachment resolution against Trump

As the battle for control of the House of Representatives intensifies ahead of the 2026 midterms, a lame-duck House Democrat dropped a comprehensive blueprint for how a potential Democratic majority could target the White House come January.

Representative Steve Cohen (D-TN) introduced 26 articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump, signaling that House Democrats are preparing to unleash aggressive oversight and potential impeachment proceedings if they reclaim the speaker’s gavel this fall, according to a Newsweek article. The sprawling resolution targets nearly every pillar of the administration’s second-term platform—including military operations off the coast of Venezuela, the deployment of federal forces to domestic cities, executive orders ending birthright citizenship, and mass deportation policies.

“Trump is clearly the most impeachable President our country has ever endured,” Cohen wrote in a statement on Thursday. “His continued presence in office is a danger to our democracy. That the sycophantic Republican majority in Congress is derelict in its duty does not mean that I must abandon my responsibilities.”

“I took an independent oath to support and defend the Constitution,” he continued. “That commitment compels me to introduce this resolution today. When historians write about this period, and our constituents ask who stood up to President Trump’s lawlessness, this resolution is the answer.”

While the measure stands virtually no chance of moving in the current Republican-controlled House, Cohen openly framed the resolution as a roadmap for the incoming 120th Congress, warning that a shift in congressional power will immediately trigger a high-stakes constitutional showdown.

Nine days before the unveiling of Cohen’s articles of impeachment, the House rejected Representative Al Green’s (D-TX) motions. The House voted 232-147 on September 15 to shelve the Houston, Texas, representative’s motions.

Cohen’s articles of impeachment break down as follows:

  • Elections & Democratic Integrity:

    • Article I: Undermining Democracy—Sowing Doubt in Elections.

  • Military & Foreign Operations:

    • Article II: Waging War on Iran Without Congressional Approval.

    • Article III: Extrajudicial Killings in International Waters of Venezuela.

    • Article IV: Deploying Military Forces Against United States Cities.

  • Immigration & Civil Rights:

    • Article V: Birthright Citizenship Executive Order.

    • Article VIII: Disregard of Courts involving the Alien Enemies Act and Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

    • Article IX: Cruel and Unusual Punishment at CECOT detention facilities.

    • Article XII: Defying Court Orders in Immigration Enforcement.

  • Executive Power & Agency Control:

    • Article VI: Canceling Federal Grants to Punish States for Their Votes.

    • Article VII: Imposing Loyalty Tests on the Federal Workforce.

    • Article X: Unlawful Withholding of Appropriated Funds and Dismantling Congressionally Established Programs.

    • Article XI: Obstructing the Lawful Appointment of United States Attorneys.

    • Article XIII: Abolishing a Congressionally Mandated Agency (The Department of Education).

    • Article XIV: Mass Termination of Inspectors General Without Statutory Notice.

    • Article XXIV: Illegal Impoundment of Appropriated Funds.

  • Economic & Financial Authority:

    • Article XV: Unilaterally Taxing U.S. Citizens Through Emergency Powers Tariffs.

    • Article XVII: IRS Settlement and Corruption of the Judgment Fund.

  • Justice Department & Executive Clemency:

    • Article XVI: Political Prosecutions of James Comey, Letitia James, and Adam Schiff.

    • Article XVIII: Corrupt Use of the Pardon Power.

  • Free Press & Speech Restrictions:

    • Article XIX: Banishing Reporters from the White House over Disfavored Coverage.

    • Article XX: Coercing CBS and ABC to Change Editorial Content.

    • Article XXI: Retaliatory Executive Orders Against Law Firms.

    • Article XXII: Coercing Universities Through Withheld Federal Funds.

  • Ethics, Infrastructure, & Emoluments:

    • Article XXIII: Demolishing the White House East Wing Without Congressional Approval.

    • Article XXV: Self-Aggrandizement through Renaming Public Institutions, Seizure of Civic Property, and Personal Appropriation of National Currency.

    • Article XXVI: Emoluments Violations—Profiting Personally and Directly from the Presidency.

September 24, 2026 – Judicial Watch: Judge orders hearing in lawsuit against the CIA for January 6 records

Judicial Watch announced today that a federal judge in Washington, DC has ordered a status conference in its lawsuit against the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) for all records related to events on January 6, 2021, in the U.S. Capitol. The status conference is set for today, September 24.

U.S. District Judge Jia M. Cobb ordered the hearing at the request of Judicial Watch in its August 2024 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) for all records related to any shots fired inside the U.S. Capitol building on January 6, 2021, and records of requests for CIA support including bomb technicians and bomb-detecting dogs placed on standby or used in response to the massive protests in and around Washington, DC (Judicial Watch v. Central Intelligence Agency (No. 1:24-cv-02172)).

In March 2024, Judicial Watch received 88 pages of Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) records from the Department of Justice in a FOIA lawsuit that show the CIA deployed personnel to Washington, DC on January 6, 2021.

The records include a series of text messages under the heading “January 7 Intel Chain” in which two separate references to participation by the CIA are made. One states that “two CIA bomb techs” are assisting with “a pipe bomb scene on New Jersey and D ST SE.” Another record references “several CIA dog teams on standby.”

In a Joint Status Report filed with the court on September 2, 2026, Judicial Watch argues:

More than two years after this lawsuit was filed, the agency states that it is still not finished with its search. Notably the agency does not claim that this is because the request was overbroad or otherwise unmanageable. It simply has not finished the search after more than two years.

***

Accordingly, pursuant to the Court’s June 15, 2026 Minute Order, Plaintiff proposes that the agency be ordered to provide a detailed description of the status of its efforts, including but not limited to descriptions of the searches conducted and remaining to be conducted, and a date certain when the searches will be complete. The agency also should be ordered to disclose the number of records located and reviewed, the rate at which the records are being reviewed, and a date certain when the review will be complete. Finally, the agency should be ordered to provide a date certain when interim productions will begin. Alternatively, Plaintiff requests an in-person status conference to further address these matters.

“The CIA has demonstrated absolute contempt for the people’s right to know what it was up to on at the US Capitol on January 6,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said. “Why is the CIA stonewalling the release of any documents about this important issue for over half-a-decade!”

Judicial Watch has pursued details of January 6 on several fronts.

In July 2026, it forced the release of over 1,000 hours of Washington, DC, Metropolitan Police Department body-worn camera footage   from the January 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol event.

In April 2026, Judicial Watch filed a (FOIA) lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to obtain records related to possible improper targeting of January 6, 2021, Capitol protesters, their supporters, and related nonprofits.

In July 2025, Judicial Watch sued the U.S. Department of Justice for records on accelerated January 6 prosecutions after Donald Trump was elected president in November 2024.

In October 2023, Judicial Watch received the declaration of James W. Joyce, senior counsel in the Office of the General Counsel for the Capitol Police, in which he describes emails among senior officials of the United States Capitol Police (USCP) in January 2021 that show warnings of possible January 6 protests that could lead to serious disruptions at the U.S. Capitol.

In June 2025, Judicial Watch concluded a $4.975 million settlement in the wrongful death lawsuit against the U.S. Government filed on behalf of the family of Ashli Babbitt, the U.S. Air Force veteran who was shot and killed inside the U.S. Capitol by then-Capitol Police Lt. Michael Byrd on January 6, 2021. Ashli Babbitt was the only January 6 homicide victim. (Judicial Watch, 9/24/2026)  (Archive)

September 24, 2026 – Several former FBI agents/ analysts involved in the raid of Mar-a-Lago in 2022, have received requests for interviews and subpoenas

Lots happening this week.

According to a new filing in the old classified documents case (h/t@joshgerstein), several former FBI agents/ analysts involved in the raid of Mar-a-Lago in 2022 have received requests for interviews and subpoenas related to the “grand conspiracy” investigation into the raid ongoing in southern Florida.

The investigation, now led by the US Attorney for the Southern District of Florida following the recent departure of Joe diGenova, appears focused on at least two potential crimes: Conspiracy Against Rights and Deprivation of Rights Under Color of Law.

Defense attorneys–including Abbe Lowell and Mark Zaid–representing the unnamed FBI employees believe any testimony would run afoul of Judge Cannon’s gag order in the matter, which relates to any leaks of Volume II of Smith’s final report.

This sounds like a stretch but at least confirms significant movement in the investigation.

Here is the gist of Judge Cannon’s Feb 2026 order prohibiting the release of Volume II after it was litigated for nearly a year.

This clearly covers the PUBLIC dissemination of Volume II in a case that had been dismissed by Cannon in July 2024 based on the unconstitutional nature of Smith’s appointment as special counsel.

Cannon further reminded the public how Jack Smith flouted her dismissal order for months…

Before the media and some federal judges caterwauled about how Trump-appointed US Attorneys allegedly acted without authority…there was Jack Smith.

Despite Cannon’s lengthy July 15, 2024 order dismissing the documents case and her reasoning why, Smith violated her court order for months, continuing to act in that official capacity in the docs case, signing an appeal of her order, and authoring both volumes of his final report (the J6 portion of the report was released prior to Inauguration Day.)

Still not too late to charge Smith with impersonating a federal officer and/or contempt of court.

September 25, 2026 – Judicial Watch sues Director of National Intelligence for Biden era documents exposing 2020 election corruption

Judicial Watch announced today it filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) for Biden-era documents discovered by former Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard after she took office, which she said contain information regarding corruption of the 2020 election (Judicial Watch Inc. v. Office of the Director of National Intelligence (Case 1:26-cv-03277)).

Judicial Watch sued in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia after the ODNI failed to respond to a July 31, 2026, FOIA request “for records concerning the discovery, location, contents, and handling of the materials referenced by Director Gabbard, as well as communications about their discovery and records about any inquiry into why the materials were designated for destruction.”

On August 26, 2025, Gabbard confirmed to President Trump during a cabinet meeting that ODNI had identified burn bags containing information regarding corruption in the 2020 presidential election. “We are finding documents literally tucked away in the back of safes in random offices, in these bags and in other areas—which, again, speaks to the intent of those who are trying to hide the truth from the American people.” She added that the documents revealed the politicization of intelligence and caused immeasurable harm to the American people.

Judicial Watch said in its suit:

As of the date of this Complaint, ODNI has failed to: (i) determine whether to comply with the request; (ii) notify Plaintiff of any such determination or the reasons therefor; (iii) advise Plaintiff of the right to appeal any adverse determination; or (iv) produce the requested records or otherwise demonstrate that the requested records are exempt from production.

“There is no legitimate reason to continue sitting on these documents that will likely add further evidence of the corruption at the top of the Biden administration,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said.

Judicial Watch has another similar suit pending.

In August, a federal judge ordered the U.S. Department of Justice to provide answers about nearly 2 million pages of FBI records discovered in a “hidden room” at FBI headquarters, including whether the records have already been reviewed in response to other Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests and whether the newly uncovered records had been stored in other government record systems.

In July, the FBI told a federal court that, at a rate of 500 pages a month, processing records from the “hidden room” at FBI Headquarters would take approximately 158 years. The room — now dubbed the “burn bag room” —  holds over 2 million pages of records, according to the FBI’s own filing. Then-Deputy Director Bongino said in May 2025 that some of the records were found stashed “in bags.”

In February, Judicial Watch filed a FOIA lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Justice concerning the discovery and contents of “burn bags” found in a secured Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) at Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) headquarters in Washington, DC.

September 25, 2026 – CA Assemblywoman Mia Bonta collected a large nonprofit salary while her husband AG Rob Bonta steered the money to groups that employed her

California Assemblywoman Mia Bonta collected a six-figure 501(c)3 nonprofit salary while her husband Attorney General Rob Bonta steered more than half a million dollars to the groups that employed her. She allegedly used these funds to purchase multiple Gucci bags.

That is not a rumor from a random account. CalMatters documented it years ago. While Rob Bonta sat in the Assembly, he solicited $517,500 in behested payments for nonprofits that paid his wife. The bulk was a $500,000 Google grant to Bring Me a Book, where she was a top executive. He also sent $21,000 in campaign cash to Literacy Lab while she was CEO there, then more money to Oakland Promise after she took that CEO job. They got letters saying the funds would not go to her salary. That is how you know the conflict was obvious.

Bob Stern, who helped write California’s Political Reform Act, said the law should be changed so politicians cannot do this. The law was not changed. Rob became Attorney General. Mia took Rob’s Assembly seat. She later chaired the budget subcommittee that oversees his Department of Justice.

Then she wrote AB 2624, the bill nicknamed the Stop Nick Shirley Act, after reporters started digging into the same family money trail.

He asks donors with business before the state to fund her nonprofits. She draws the paycheck. He becomes the state’s top cop. She writes a law that makes it harder to put cameras on the network.

That is not public service. That is a corrupt family business.

September 28, 2026 – Citizens vs. the System: School Mental-Health Contracts

Screenshot

Parents should not have to sue, face down public officials, or fight for access just to learn what mental-health programs are doing in schools and how public money is being spent. From Florida to Connecticut and Tennessee, citizens are challenging behavioral-health providers and contracts they believe have been protected from meaningful public scrutiny.

Jack Knocke, a citizen advocate, and Marsha Metzger of Parents On the Level sent FBI Director Kash Patel a detailed September 17  letter requesting federal scrutiny of school-based mental-health and social-emotional-learning platforms. The letter asks what students are shown, what information is collected, who can access it, and whether parents can inspect the programs and records.

Knocke won. After challenging Nassau County, Florida, over access to Ripple Effects curriculum records, Knocke obtained a court order requiring access. The judge also awarded attorney’s fees.

The letter’s questions echo national headlines:

  • Can parents inspect what their children are shown? Knocke and Metzger report barriers to reviewing school materials. Recent reporting has described disputes over parents’ ability to obtain copies of school mental-health surveys after being allowed to view them.

  • Are students asked sensitive questions without meaningful parental notice and consent? The letter says review notes identified topics including sexual abuse, relationships, sexual consent, and pregnancy services. The authors want officials to verify what content exists and which students can access it. In August, the U.S. Department of Education issued guidance about PPRA and parental rights concerning mental-health screenings and sensitive surveys.

  • What happens to children’s answers and personal information? Knocke and Metzger ask what student journals and profiles collect, who can access the information, and whether parents can inspect their child’s records. Recent coverage of an Illinois school-screening initiative raised questions about how student information may connect to behavioral-health portals and follow-up services.

Parents need informed consent, a meaningful opportunity to understand a program and its questions before a child participates. Parents should have “PPRA” tattooed on their foreheads, figuratively speaking. The Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment gives parents rights concerning certain student surveys and instructional materials, including sensitive topics such as mental health, sex, and religious beliefs.

AbleChild’s concerns about school-based mental-health programs are rooted in years of advocacy. In Killingly, Connecticut, a survey of students in grades 7–12 reported that 14.7% of respondents had seriously considered suicide. AbleChild questioned whether the survey gathered important context, including whether students reporting suicidal thoughts were already receiving psychiatric treatment. The survey did not establish that. AbleChild argued that parents should have been told how the survey would be used, including its potential role in the campaign for school-based mental-health services.

September 25, 2026 – 300 of 400 DOJ Civil Rights attorneys quit rather than clean America’s voter rolls and end DEI

Harmeet Dhillon (Credit: public domain)

Assistant Harmeet Dhillon just confirmed what every honest observer already knew: the old Civil Rights Division was a woke fortress inside Main Justice.

When President Trump’s team told those lawyers the American people had voted to end illegal DEI discrimination and scrub dirty voter rolls, about 300 of the division’s 400 attorneys walked out.

Dhillon did not mourn them. She called it what it was.

In an interview this week with Col. Kurt Schlichter filling in on the Hugh Hewitt Show, Dhillon said the Civil Rights Division is one of the largest shops at Main Justice in Washington.

When she arrived, it had about 400 attorneys. After her office made clear it would implement the president’s , “prioritizing getting rid of DEI and cleaning up voter rolls,” “eventually about 300 of those attorneys quit, and so they self-deported.”

Then she rebuilt.

“We then had the task of, while we had DOJ restrictions and budgetary constraints, building back the Civil Rights Division,” Dhillon said. “And I’m really happy to say that I recruited over 100 great legal professionals here to the DOJ.”

September 26, 2026 – The political calculus behind Obama’s anti AI speech – “The world is about to endow 3-6 companies with about $10 trillion of wealth”

Chamath explains the political calculus behind Obama’s anti AI speech

“This is a very important moment for a very simple reason, which is that the world is about to endow 3-6 companies with about $10 trillion of wealth.”

“And what Obama knows very well is that most of those companies are overwhelmingly left leaning. And what he also knows is that there is a huge portion of that money that will then get put into philanthropic and charitable causes that then he and the people around him will be beneficiaries of.”

“That is the truth. We already know this because we know that some of these frontier corporations actually ask you to sign up DAFTs and have a portion of your stock that you’re willing to pledge. So this money is going to go to things other than consumption or savings. It’s going to go into PACs, it’s going to go into political movements, and they stand to disproportionately benefit.”

“So this has nothing to do with prosperity. This is a very simple political calculus. If you freeze frame the economy the way it is today, a handful of organizations that will disproportionately be able to affect the Democrats will win, they will capture the lion’s share of the economic gains. And then they will help the Democrats win power. That’s all this is.”

September 27, 2026 – Anti-Trump group rehearsed an election crisis – Now it’s launching a 15-state midterm operation

Interfaith Alliance has already gathered religious leaders to rehearse an election crisis. Now the organization is taking its operation nationwide—and explicitly identifying the Trump administration as the threat.

In a September 17 announcement, the group disclosed that it recently held a:

“mock election crisis response exercise.”

The rehearsal accompanies a six-week training program, a pledge of $200,000 for local election-protection activities, and a 15-state bus tour. The announcement says local religious communities will receive training about:

“election interference threats coming from the Trump administration.”

Interfaith Alliance calls the campaign nonpartisan. Its own announcement makes clear which administration participants are being mobilized to scrutinize. Interfaith Alliance’s announcement.

The rehearsal is part of a larger operation

The campaign’s website supplies details beyond the press release. It links an election-crisis planning toolkit, described as a 90-minute exercise with six scenarios for 2026, developed with Protect Democracy.

The operation combines voter registration and canvassing with a trained, peaceful presence at polling places. One of its four advertised components is bluntly titled:

“Fund the local organizers.”

Its training partners include the League of Women Voters, Interfaith America, Protect Democracy, and Sojourners. The fall schedule includes instruction for trusted messengers, election engagement by houses of worship, and a September 23 session on de-escalation and bystander intervention at the polls.

Dr. James P. Miller told Sen. Ron Johnson’s (R-WI) roundtable, “COVID-19 Hospital Protocols: Real Stories from Real People,” that the head of infectious disease at his hospital privately admitted he was working with state government to restrict the civil rights of unvaccinated Americans.

“The head of infectious disease medicine at my hospital privately told me that he was working with the state government to restrict the civil rights of unvaccinated people,” Miller said.

“Including their ability to drive and therefore work, by making their driver’s license renewal contingent on their COVID vaccine status.”

That is not a conspiracy theory from a comment section. That is a licensed physician and surgeon, under oath in the Senate, describing what he said he heard from the man running infectious disease at Providence Regional Medical Center in Everett, the same hospital that treated “Patient Zero” in January 2020.

In a sworn attestation Miller previously filed for criminal investigations, he identified that official as Dr. George Diaz and said Diaz told him unvaccinated people should not be allowed to engage in society or hold a driver’s license, and that Diaz claimed he was working with the Washington governor’s office to turn that view into state policy.

Those remain Miller’s allegations. Diaz was the public face of Everett’s first-case response and an early champion of remdesivir.

The hospital that launched the national panic, and the doctor who says the panic was manufactured.

Miller was a staff surgeon and ICU provider at the Everett hospital. He also contracted independently to perform ICU quality reviews. What he found, he told Johnson’s panel, was not a heroic system stretched to the breaking point. It was fraud, fear theater, and protocols that killed.

He said his reviews uncovered fraud extending to senior hospital leadership. He reported it. Then the retaliation started.

After federal authorities sent remdesivir to the hospital, Miller said medical leadership handed physicians “misleading and inaccurate information” about the drug. When a young trauma patient looked like a textbook candidate under the official guidelines, the infectious disease doctor on call told him privately not to give it to her, because, quote, “she seemed like a nice girl.”

“Any physician honestly reviewing the real-world data at that time could have recognized early that remdesivir caused more harm than good,” Miller testified.

Read his statement below:

“During COVID-19, I was a staff surgeon, ICU provider at the hospital where the first diagnosed COVID patient in the United States was treated. I cared for hundreds of COVID patients and also contracted independently to perform ICU quality reviews at the hospital, in addition to my surgical and ICU duties as a physician.

My reviews uncovered fraud extending to senior hospital leadership. I reported these findings. There were protocols put in place that caused—thank you—that caused demonstrable harm and increased mortality.

After our hospital was given remdesivir by federal authorities, we were provided misleading and inaccurate information about the drug by medical leadership. When I had a young trauma patient just after remdesivir was released, she appeared to be a perfect candidate based on the guidelines. The infectious disease doctor on call told me privately not to give it to her because, quote, “She seemed like a nice girl,” unquote.

Any physician honestly reviewing the real-world data at that time could have recognized early that remdesivir caused more harm than good.

I observed messaging by the hospital that falsely inflated COVID infections and deaths, contributing to public fear and generating misleading headlines. In my experience, we never faced shortages of equipment or staff. I witnessed nurses being sent home because there were not enough patients, while headlines about our hospital were simultaneously running, stating that we were overwhelmed by COVID patients.

I further observed that mask and PPE protocols initiated during COVID lacked scientific basis and did not medically work, but the mask and PPE protocols did dehumanize patients and staff.

I witnessed patients who died from trauma and other causes being reported as COVID-19 deaths on their death certificates. I watched previously compassionate and devoted doctors and nurses become cruel and ambivalent about the well-being of patients as the COVID experience evolved.

The head of infectious disease medicine at my hospital privately told me that he was working with the state government to restrict the civil rights of unvaccinated people, including their ability to drive and, therefore, work, by making their driver’s license renewal contingent on their status.

Hospital leadership, including the chief medical officer of our medical group, endorsed the local medical establishment’s refusal to provide healthcare to unvaccinated patients. Primary care and urgent care physicians refused to see unvaccinated patients with the chief medical officer’s knowledge and approval, through policy.

In response, I opened a free clinic to care for those denied care through my local church. The church became a licensed clinic.

I observed that many of the alternative treatments that were censored by medical societies, pharmacists, social media, the press, and established health agencies were highly effective. Treatments including ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, vitamin D, zinc, quercetin, and just physical exercise were highly effective at treating COVID.

When I advocated for patient care rather than harmful protocols and spoke against the fraud, I was targeted for removal through baseless disciplinary actions, with a stated goal of taking away my medical license and ability to ever practice medicine again.

I endured countless unfounded disciplinary hearings, show trials, and sham peer review procedures, which included the threat of me being arrested. This was all in retaliation for me speaking out.

I defeated every attack. I remained in good standing, and I told the truth.

I witnessed physicians and nurses who observed the harms done by the COVID protocols either remain silent or be forced out of our community.

The public health officials, hospital leaders, and physicians who implemented these treatments and protocols should be held accountable. The data were available, and the harms were obvious.

Accountability is necessary if we’re going to maintain public trust and a functioning healthcare system.”

WATCH:

Buffalo attorney Ralph Lorigo walked into Sen. Ron Johnson’s Capitol Hill roundtable Monday with numbers the corporate press will spend the next week trying to bury.

He represented 212 families in 40 states after hospitals refused to let dying COVID patients try ivermectin while Remdesivir and ventilators rolled on.

Of the 72 cases Lorigo won in which the drug was actually given, only three patients died. That is a 95.8 percent survival rate. Of the 140 cases he lost or could not get into court in time, every single patient died.

Twenty-four days after Raymond Hokett walked into an Oklahoma City emergency room in August 2021, the 58-year-old was dead. On Monday, his widow sat before Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) and told the country what she says happened in between, remdesivir, a doctor who blamed his vaccine status, a ventilator she never approved, armed guards on the COVID floor, and hospital staff who asked her, again and again, to make him a DNR and hand over his organs. https://x.com/MJTruthUltra/status/2104662960983482876/video/1

September 28, 2026 – General Flynn reposts Svetlana Lokhova’s new book “THE GRAND CONSPIRACY: How Obama Weaponized the Deep State to Destroy Donald Trump”

OUT NOW!
THE GRAND CONSPIRACY: How Obama Weaponized the Deep State to Destroy Donald Trump https://grandconspiracybook.com

November 10, 2016. The White House.

Obama shook President-elect Trump’s hand by the fireplace and said he wanted him to succeed. Obama had a secret warrant on one of Trump’s advisers, an FBI informant already working Trump’s men and a file on President-elect Trump’s National Security Adviser, and Obama said nothing.

Obama’s people built the case to destroy Donald Trump, and they wrote it down. Brennan’s pad, with Obama’s order in the margin. Strzok’s note of the Oval Office meeting, fifteen days before Obama left office: “Do cases w/ right people.” Comey, Brennan, Clapper, Rice, Yates. Their notes of what Obama told them to do are the spine of this book.

Hillary’s plan was to tie Trump to Russian intelligence to win the election and bury her emails. Obama took it over on July 28, 2016, and in August his FBI opened its case on the man President-elect Trump would name National Security Adviser, on a story of an affair with a Russian spy. When Obama shook Trump’s hand in the Oval Office, that file, with my name in it, was still open.

I was at the dinner the story was built on. The only woman at the table, and home with my husband when it ended. The informant who told Obama’s FBI about it wasn’t in the room, and Obama’s Pentagon and Obama’s FBI paid him anyway.

Obama’s officials fed the Trump-Russia fabrication to five newsrooms, swore it to a secret court, and kept the file open past the election on his order. Then they did it to President Trump twice more: a special counsel in 2017, and the raid on his home in 2022.

The prosecutors in Fort Pierce call it the Grand Conspiracy case. I kept their title and added the one name they left out: Obama’s. He left nothing in his own hand. His people recorded his orders.

200,000 words. Every document named and dated. Every person named. No anonymous sources; the sources are theirs. It ends in a grand jury room in Florida with John Brennan under subpoena, and Barack Obama not yet sent for.

September 29, 2026 – Jack Smith testifies before the Senate Judiciary Committee

Jim Jordan drops a 57-page report accusing Jack Smith and the Biden DOJ of trying to tilt the 2024 election with public disclosures of his probe’s findings.

The report alleges DOJ’s own Public Integrity Section warned subpoenas to lawmakers could be unconstitutional but approved them anyway, calculating there was little “litigation risk” because the gag orders would keep lawmakers in the dark. Members of Congress were reportedly unaware of the surveillance for more than two years.

Jordan says Smith’s team “ran roughshod over key constitutional protections” and broke protocol by releasing a massive trove of alleged evidence weeks before the 2024 presidential election to sway public opinion. The report also claims Smith privately admitted to then-AG Merrick Garland that lawmakers “likely have a valid Speech or Debate privilege” — but Garland gave his blessing to proceed anyway.

Story here:

@SenMikeLee said Jack Smith’s collection of lawmakers’ records and preservation orders for the Special Counsel probe into President Trump “implicates the Fourth Amendment in a very direct way.”

Fourth Amendment guards against unreasonable searches and seizures by the government

During the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing:

– Senator Lee revealed that Jack Smith’s team issued “preservation” requests to Apple
– Can include ALL devices attached to Apple account
– Ordered Apple NOT to disclose the request
– Smith’s team should be alerted first

Smith, “I don’t have a recollection of specific requests”

Smith confirmed Federal Judge (Boasberg) who signed off on gag orders/non-disclosures was kept in the dark about the subpoenas’ target

BREAKING: Statement From Sean Davis, CEO and Co-Founder of The Federalist:

Corrupt cop Jack Smith spied on The Federalist and accessed our communications during his lawless anti-Trump witch hunt. We are still working to determine which of our reporters were targeted by Jack Smith and which journalistic communications he and his thugs seized.

The latest facts about Jack Smith’s illegal jihad were released by Sen. Charles Grassley during a Senate Judiciary Committee oversight hearing on Tuesday.

The Federalist’s team of investigative reporters exposed the Russian collusion hoax. We exposed the Kavanaugh hoax. We exposed the Ukraine impeachment hoax. And The Federalist’s Editor-in-Chief Mollie Hemingway wrote the definitive account of how Democrats seized control of election infrastructure and destroyed the integrity of American elections in 2020.

For over a decade, The Federalist has fearlessly exposed Deep State corruption and DOJ lies and lawfare. Spying on us was apparently part of Jack Smith’s plot to get revenge against us.

The First Amendment is the bedrock of the American Constitution. A free press is integral to the American republic and our entire way of life. And Jack Smith fed the whole thing through a shredder in his insane and illegal attempt to rig the 2024 elections through lawfare, intimidation, and unconstitutional attacks on free speech and the First Amendment.

As shocking as this news may be to some, I am not surprised to learn of this behavior by Jack Smith and the Biden administration. At the direction of the Biden administration, the federal government illegally censored The Federalist, tried to bankrupt us, and was eventually forced to admit it had zero legal authority to do any of it.

We took these thugs to court and won when we learned of their illegal censorship efforts, and we will explore all legal options going forward to deal with Jack Smith’s lawless and un-American attempts to silence us by spying on us.

Nobody in corporate media said a word in our defense when we were illegally censored. Outlets like CNN and the New York Times, which posture as First Amendment purists, had nothing to say about the Biden administration’s illegal attempts to punish us for our rigorous and accurate journalism.

I have zero doubt that they will be similarly silent today, because they are partisan hacks who supported Jack Smith’s egregious lawfare every step of the way.

Unlike corrupt corporate media, The Federalist will always fearlessly and accurately report the news, even in the face of never-ending Democrat assaults on the First Amendment, free speech, and freedom of the press.

We will never back down, and we will never stop reporting the facts and defending the greatest nation and greatest people on earth. Hillary Clinton couldn’t stop us, Joe Biden couldn’t stop us, and Jack Smith’s corrupt thuggery won’t stop us.

Jack Smith spent today telling the Senate he was righteous. The record Grassley dropped says his team scooped up the personal checks of almost 5,000 small-dollar Trump donors and handed their home addresses and bank details to the Biden DOJ and FBI. That’s not a case against Trump. That’s a fishing net over people who wrote $10 checks. It also looks terrible for Smith and anyone who defended his work. He spent tax dollars looking into people who did nothing more than make a tiny donation to Trump. That’s absurd. It should be illegal.

Smith testified this morning that he had proof beyond a reasonable doubt Trump committed serious crimes and that he’d do it again to a president of either party. Smith can argue the two Trump cases. That’s his prerogative. Don’t pretend a $10 donor in Osage, Iowa, was part of a plot. Grassley’s committee says Smith’s Arctic Frost team collected at least 4,782 checks from September 2019 through August 2023, from all 50 states. The checks show addresses, account numbers, routing numbers, and signatures. That’s a gross invasion of privacy and an abuse of power.

Arctic Frost started as the FBI’s election investigation and became Smith’s case. Investigators can follow money in a criminal probe. That part is normal. What’s not normal is treating every small donor like a suspect and parking that person’s banking information inside the FBI. Once those records are in the building, they don’t leave.

Smith said he won’t be silenced. Nobody’s asking him to be silent. They’re asking why a special counsel needed the checking account of a person who sent Trump ten dollars. If the answer is “because we could,” that’s the abuse. That abuse should be a crime if it isn’t already.

A government that collects the bank info of its political opponents’ small donors isn’t enforcing the law. It’s building a list. Smith can keep reciting “beyond a reasonable doubt.” The $10 check is the part the public understands.

September 29, 2026 – 100% proof of CNN deceptively editing Trump’s January 6th speech

This video is 100% proof of CNN deceptively editing Trump’s January 6th speech.

It’s significant because Trump sued the BBC for doing the same thing (splicing together two sections of his speech).

CNN took two clips and joined them by overlaying B-roll footage of the January 6th crowd. CNN did not use a transition to join the clips because people would then know that the clips were not successive. Instead, CNN joined it like this to make people believe that Trump said:

“Nobody until I came along had any idea how corrupt our elections were. And we fight, we fight like hell.”

Any responsible person would watch what CNN aired and believe he said that. In fact, he did not. Sections were cut out.

We all know exactly why CNN did this. Trump should sue them too.

September 30, 2026 – ‘From death to America’ to ‘vote Democrat’: Iran’s IRGC issues midterm endorsement

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is tampering in another American election, but this latest endorsement tells you everything you need to know about how the Trump Administration’s vise grip is tightening on the mullahs. You might characterize it as a backdoor endorsement of Trump.

Indeed, in every metric, Iran‘s Maoist-inspired Shia “twelvers” are losing.

Now it seems words are among the most potent weapons they have left.

In a 26-page sternly worded letter, the IRGC asked Americans to vote against President Donald Trump and Republicans because, well, it turns out that he’s just too mean to the former largest state sponsor of terror (Turkey has taken its place).

The “Open Letter to the Honorable People of the United States of America” released Tuesday urged Americans to vote for the Democrats and to give up fighting the Iranian mullahs because, among other things, we’re winning. Indeed, Iran has had “remarkable strategic wins,” the English version of the letter declares. There’s no telling what possible Persian or Arabic versions actually say.

“Although American politicians often win your votes through deception and false promises, as Trump did, you can change the makeup of the government,” the letter stated. “Remove from power the evil, deceitful, and violent politicians who are responsible for America’s current state.”

As George Washington School of Law scholar and Fox News analyst Jonathan Turley noted, “It’s not a good sign when the IRGC shifts from “Death to America” to “Vote Democratic.”

The letter purports to set the record straight on the big questions about Iran and underlying premises for the war.

“Why do Iranians chant, ‘Death to America’? Are they hostile to the American people? The U.S. government claims that the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) is a terrorist organization. Is this true?” the letter asked. The propaganda piece hilariously answered, “it should be fairly obvious that the phrase ‘Death to America,’ which Iranians have been chanting since the triumph of the Islamic Revolution, does not in any way express any ill will toward the American people.”

It’s like a script for a Monty Python sketch.

“The letter accused Trump of concealing the peaceful nature of Iran’s nuclear program, which Israel in particular sees as an existential threat, and the effectiveness of Tehran’s blockade of Gulf oil,” news outlet Alarabiya reported. “IRGC spokesperson Hossein Mohebbi,” the Baghdad Bob of Iran, said, ‘the American people are not knowledgeable about many developments. We believe if they knew more, they would think differently and take other decisions.’”

“The enemy [U.S.] knows that Iran is not after nuclear weapons,” Mohebbi said.

“Remove from power the evil, deceitful, and violent politicians who are responsible for America’s current state,” the Indian-based Deccan Herald reported. “Make sure your politicians understand that the world has changed.”

Never mind that its missiles, most nuke plants, army, navy, air assets, a swath of drone factories, and many IRGC leaders repose under rubble or at the bottom of the Strait of Hormuz. They’re not entirely vanquished, but after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and War Secretary Pete Hegseth get done with them, the IRGC strongmen will probably wish they’d skedaddled to a Russian dacha while the getting was good.

Sadly for the terrorists, the oil is flowing at almost pre-war levels through the Strait, and Saudi Arabia has resumed Red Sea oil shipments after Houthi (Iranian proxy) attacks. (Read more: PJ Media, 9/30/2026)  (Archive)

September 30, 2026 – Immigration judge rules US can deport leader of large mosque over national security concerns

The U.S. can deport the leader of a large mosque in Wisconsin on the grounds that he is a threat to national security, an immigration judge ruled on Wednesday.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents detained Salah Sarsour, an outspoken supporter of Palestine, in March. Sarsour alleged the federal government was targeting him for speaking out against Israel and advocating for Palestinian rights. In June, a federal judge agreed and ordered Sarsour released, the Associated Press reported.

Sasour was born in the Israeli-occupied West Bank and was imprisoned in Israel in 1988 after confessing to throwing a Molotov cocktail and stones at Israeli military personnel. He was also convicted in 1995 of attempting to possess weapons.

He denies committing the crimes, and his attorneys allege he was tortured into confessing to them.

Government attorneys argue that Sarsour’s convictions in Israel, along with allegations he lied on his green card application, make him a threat to national security.

September 30, 2026 – The Justice Dept files a judicial misconduct complaint against Minnesota federal judges

@TheJusticeDept has filed a judicial misconduct complaint against the Minnesota federal judges who spoke to the NYT in an unethical partisan press tour on immigration cases. Judges who covet publicity undermine public confidence in the rule of law.
(…)
Aside from what is an obvious bias against @DHSgov and immigration authorities in Minnesota, these judges are commenting publicly on pending and impending cases and making political statements on matters that are or have been before them. This is a flagrant violation of the Code of Judicial Conduct, and when judges repeatedly exceed their authority—then launch a partisan press campaign—that is a threat to the rule of law.
