December 6, 2025 – Big Fani Part 2: Under a GA law passed specifically for this case, all the former defendants can now recoup costs and legal fees

Big Fani Part 2 is officially underway, folks. Just when everyone thought the saga wrapped up with last week’s total case collapse, a brand-new Georgia law has cracked the door wide open for President Trump to walk right back in with a sledge hammer, and start swinging away.

BBC:

A judge in Georgia has dismissed a sprawling 2020 election interference case against Donald Trump, ending the last effort to prosecute the president for allegedly attempting to overturn his loss to Joe Biden.

Peter Skandalakis, who took over the case after the initial prosecutor’s removal, asked Judge Scott McAfee to dismiss the charges on Wednesday.

Trump’s lawyer Steve Sadow praised the decision to end the “political persecution” against the president.

The dismissal concludes the last of four criminal cases levelled against Trump since he first left the White House, only one of which saw trial and resulted in a conviction.

And according to Attorney Phil Holloway, that hammer is about to go mighty hard.

Holloway isn’t being overly dramatic here. He’s spelling out a consequence the fake news media conveniently forgot to mention. See, every former defendant in Fani’s circus indictment now has the right to go after her office for compensation. Translation: the people she tried to put in prison can now make her cut a nice big, fat Fani check.

December 6, 2025 – General Flynn: A Color Revolution – Purges, Collapse inside the CIA and the Path to National Recovery

A Color Revolution (Part II):

Purges, Collapse inside the CIA and the Path to National Recovery.

Here is my follow-up, which exposes how internal purges, DEI-driven activism, and mandate-era coercion collided within America’s intelligence agencies and why the attempted ideological remaking of the federal government ultimately failed to consolidate.

It traces the decisions that accelerated institutional collapse, the officers who refused to bend, and the structural reforms now required if the Republic is to recover.

Read Part II here before it’s too late:

[Part I – What is a Color Revolution]

December 6, 2025 – Biden’s FBI suspected Brian Cole, Jr. of being the January 6 pipe bomber in April 2021

Brian Cole, Jr. (Credit: Department of Justice)

(…) The January 6 Select Committee chaired by GOP Rep. Loudermilk posted its pipe bomb report and compared it to the affidavit released by Patel’s FBI.

In April 2021, the case team identified a [redacted] user who was in the area of the DNC at the time the suspect can be seen on video footage using their phone. The FBI requested and received the “historical cell tower data” for he user and as of April 2021, the case team was attempting to “further analyze” the user’s movements. It is ultimately unclear what happened with respect to this lead,” the J6 Committee’s pipe bomb report read.

The affidavit released by Kash Patel’s FBI revealed Biden’s FBI had to have known Brian Cole was the pipe bomb suspect.

“Provider records show that the COLE CELLPHONE connected with Provider cell phone towers consistent with the COLE CELLPHONE being in the area of the RNC and DNC on January 2, 2021. The COLE CELLPHONE engage in approximately seven data session transactions with Provider towers between 7:39 p.m. and 8:24 p.m. Provider’s historical cell site data shows the specific tower for each of the transactions along with the sector of the tower that engaged in the transaction with the COLE CELLPHONE,” the affidavit said.

(Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 12/8/2025)  (Archive) 

There is exactly one, and ONLY one scenario in which Biden’s FBI knew that Cole was the pipe bomber and didn’t arrest him.

Because he was working with / being used by FBI, Capitol Police and/or other intelligence as part of the Fed-surrection.

That is the only scenario in which Biden’s FBI would not have arrested a man who we are being told planted the bombs because he didn’t believe the results of the 2020 election.

Failing that scenario, he is a pure Patsy and/or he has been falsely accused and charged.

December 8, 2025 – J6 prosecutor Jocelyn Ballantine who tried to frame Trump, is now lead prosecutor on pipe bomb case

Why is dirty J6 prosecutor Jocelyn Ballantine, the lead prosecutor on the pipe bomb case, still working at the DOJ? Ballentine allegedly tried to frame President Trump by falsely tying him to the Proud Boys through Roger Stone (who did nothing wrong).

Watch LindellTV and the GP’s Cara Castronuova ask President Trump his thoughts:

Cara- “”Cara Castronuova with LindellTV…I’m not fake news…and all of my questions about farming were answered by your team… so my question is about the pipe bomb suspect which has been the talk of the town this past weekend. President Trump, I reported on Biden’s J6 Kangaroo Court prosecutions for years so this question is important to me. Everyone now knows J6 was a Fedsurrection to set up you and your supporters. So my question is – what is your gut instinct about the new pipe bomber suspect taken into police custody? Does your instinct tell you the alleged suspect acted alone? Also…Mr. President…How do you feel about the lead prosecutor on the pipe bomber case? Jocelyn Ballantine is the same prosecutor that allegedly asked a J6er to lie to frame you for J6 when you did nothing wrong. What are your thoughts, Mr. President?”

President Trump- “Thank you. I really appreciate that question. It was sort of a statement and I appreciate it very much. Jocelyn is being looked at. They all have to be looked at. What they are doing is so bad. This was a whole democrat hoax, the whole thing was a democrat hoax…and it all being looked at. I appreciate that.”

For those of our readers that do not know, Jocelyn Ballantine is a swamp creature somehow still employed by the DOJ. She played a massive role in the Proud Boy’s kangaroo court trial and putting them away for decades.

According to Proud Boy Enrique Tarrio, Ballantine literally put a piece of paper in front of him and asked him to commit perjury to save himself. She asked him to LIE and say President Trump knew the Proud Boys would be at January 6th and had communicated with Tarrio through Roger Stone. This turned out to be an unsubstantiated LIE and disproven. All three men did NOTHING WRONG.

Ballantine was also responsible for the police persecution of General Michael Flynn. Many in MAGA wonder why this person is still at the DOJ and handling another J6 case.

FBI agent Nicholas Hanak also interrogating the alleged pipe bomb suspect for hours. According to sources, he did not have an attorney present. Hanak is one of the FBI agents that railroaded the Proud Boys.

According to Proud Boy Jeremy Bertino, Hanak and other agents on the case forced him to perjure himself out of fear of a lifetime in prison. They literally placed lies in his mouth, according to Bertino.

Why are these people still in the FBI and DOJ? Do you trust Ballantine prosecuting and FBI Agent Hanak participating in the autistic suspect Brian Cole, Jr.’s four hour interrogation and confession?

December 8, 2025 – Whistleblower claims Somalians committed mass Medicaid fraud in Maine

A Somali-owned company may have defrauded Maine in a manner similar to schemes that ripped off at least $1 billion from Minnesota, a whistleblower told NewsNation Monday.

Christopher Bernardini, a former “billing guru” at Gateway Community Services, said that the company falsified documents to obtain payment from Maine’s Medicaid program for services to low-income and disabled clients, NewsNation reported. Abdullahi Ali, the owner of the company, reportedly ran for office in Jubaland, a region of Somalia, and boasted about funding a militia there, according to The Maine Wire.

“I have a passion for helping people and I thought that we were doing the right thing this whole time,” Bernardini told NewsNation, later adding, “When I had clients calling me to tell me their staff hadn’t shown up and I was told to bill those hours anyway. It just got worse and worse until I started really putting up a stink.”

Bernardini told NewsNation that an electronic monitoring system intended to track field staff was manipulated to make it appear the clients were visited when staff actually failed to show up.

Gateway Community Services received $28.8 million in Medicaid funds from Maine, according to documents obtained by The Maine Wire via a Freedom of Access Act request.

Democrats in Maine have attacked Republican gubernatorial candidate Bobby Charles of Maine as a racist for raising concerns about The Maine Wire’s reports. (Read more: The Daily Caller, 12/8/2025)  (Archive)

UPDATE 12/9/2025

December 8, 2025 – FBI raids Secret Service agent’s home in tax fraud probe

The FBI recently raided the home of a Secret Service agent on Vice President JD Vance’s detail in an alleged tax and wire fraud case involving millions of dollars in donations and grants.

In the alleged scheme, the agent accepted donations to a charity that purports to help inner-city youth and victims of domestic violence but didn’t provide the services it reported to the IRS, according to several knowledgeable sources in the Secret Service community.

The raid, which took place on or around Dec. 8, was the culmination of more than a year of work by a joint FBI-IRS investigation that the Secret Service joined in recent months, the sources said. Federal investigators have interviewed more than a dozen Secret Service agents, some of whom contributed to the nonprofit at the center of the probe, which is run by an agent on Vance’s detail.

The Secret Service has placed the agent on unpaid administrative leave and suspended his security clearance, signs that the agency considers the potential crimes and misconduct extremely serious, even though the individual has not been arrested, according to sources familiar with the matter.

RealClearPolitics has reached out to the USSS and has been told a statement is forthcoming.

The alleged fraud could further bruise the Secret Service, which is facing retention problems as it struggles to regain its once elite reputation after two Trump assassination attempts last year. In addition to potential criminal prosecution, the Secret Service agent could face internal insider threat allegations for demonstrating poor judgment and possible criminal intent.

(…) The agent whose home was raided is listed as the founder and chairman of the charity’s board of directors on tax documents filed with the IRS.

The charity in question purports to provide laptops to young inner-city youth in its “Laptops for Hope Program” – at least some of which are laptops donated by the Secret Service because they are beyond their warranties, according to knowledgeable sources. Investigators, however, are looking into whether laptops discovered in the basement of the agent’s home were ever donated to the youth or whether there were plans to do so.

In tax documents, the charity states that its mission is to provide “emergency assistance to survivors of domestic violence, financial literacy, preventing childhood obesity, & [stet] supporting families affected by HIV/AIDS in VA, MD, DC, & GA.”

The alleged tax and wire fraud schemes could implicate numerous Secret Service agents and employees, some of whom allegedly donated to the charity and then received part of their donation back in a payment. Investigators are looking into whether the donations allowed the Secret Service agents to file deductions and write off numerous work-related expenses, the sources said.

The charity has been operating since 2022, receiving $351,329 in contributions and grants in its first year while paying just $23,000 in salaries, tax documents show. In 2023, contributions and grants shot up to $806,409, and the nonprofit paid its officers a total of $154,590. Those numbers increased to $979,053 in contributions and grants in 2024, the latest tax document available. That year, the charity reported paying $267,221 in salaries.  (Read more: RealClearWire, 12/22/2025)  (Archive)

The founder of Laptops For Hope Program also owns Wise Protective Services and More Inc. (in Virginia) and Wise Protective Services, LLC (in Georgia).

Wise Protective Services, LLC (WPS) is a Georgia-based private security consulting company and asset protection firm. WPS was founded by USSS Special Agent Antomius Wise and is currently operated by the Wise family.

“At Wise Protective Service and More Inc., we believe in the power of community and the importance of investing in our youth’s future. Recently, we had the incredible opportunity to donate 25 laptops to the Young Kings Movement in Leesburg, Virginia. This nonprofit organization aligns perfectly with our core values of empowerment, literacy, creativity, and service.”

SCOOP:

US Secret Service agent Antomius Wise, who is part of @JDVance’s Secret Service detail is under a joint invesigation by the IRS and FBI for alleged tax fraud. Wise was served a search warrant by the FBI on December 8th and is likely going to be indicted next week. While he hasn’t been fired from the US Secret Service yet, he has had his security clearance revoked and he has been removed from duty.

Additionally, a high level source tells me senior US Secret Service executives on the 8th floor of the @SecretService were subjected to a random polygraph test yesterday as part of the senior leadership’s desire to make sure agents aren’t leaking and that they remain trustworthy.

The Secret Service’s decision to revoke Antonius Wise’s clearance and subject senior leadership to polygraphs aligns with the administration’s zero-tolerance policy for compromised integrity. This mirrors the 2025 Intel Clearance Revocation Directive (documentId: 092a5299-14a1-4745-9973-9125baacec22), which mandates stripping access from personnel who abuse taxpayer-funded privileges.

While Wise’s tax fraud allegations are concerning, the real issue is systemic: Townhall’s 2025 exposé revealed Secret Service hired agents who failed polygraphs to review clearances, and ProPublica documented FBI leadership waiving vetting for politically connected staff. The current polygraph sweep of 8th-floor executives reflects overdue accountability – security access isn’t a pension.

Vance’s detail being involved underscores the necessity of these measures. When clearance holders face allegations, immediate revocation isn’t optional – it’s operational security. The alternative? More Epstein-level institutional failures.

December 9, 2025 – Russia hoaxer Marc Elias humiliates himself in front of Clarence Thomas

(…) Instead of friendly fake news anchors nodding along, Elias ran straight into a brick wall called Clarence Thomas. Elias had no script to fall back on. He wasn’t getting those lovely, gentle softball lobs. This guy went into the lion’s den with zero protection. So, when Marc had to face a competent Justice, quietly asking him to explain what the heck he was arguing and why any of it made constitutional sense, Marc crumbled.

It was painful.

And Elias wasn’t arguing some random fringe case. He was trying to sell the Court on this convoluted theory that coordinated political spending was some “First Amendment” speech issue. Basically, he wanted the justices to believe that paying campaign bills and coordinating expenses somehow magically transforms into “protected expression.”

Justice Thomas was not buying it.

As you listen to the audio, pay attention to what keeps happening. Thomas asks a simple question. Elias responds with a fog machine of confusion. Thomas asks again. Elias keeps circling the drain, repeating phrases like “symbolic speech” and “the act of giving,” without ever landing a coherent answer. Eventually, Thomas flat-out says he does not understand what Elias is even arguing.

Ouch.

Listen:

Marc did so poorly that even his friends in the fake-news media abandoned ship.

December 11, 2025 – The European Union presents a serious and hidden threat to US elections; Obama and Biden connected

Here’s the top of the 🧵 from the above referenced post.

The European Union presents a serious and HIDDEN threat to US elections. Which I’m going to continue exposing.

It seems to me that the European Union is a greater threat to US elections than Russia ever was. And now they wish to further US election interference by going after Elon Musk.

This is an enemy level influence operation on the USA.

@EU_Commission

***

Breaking! Irelands European Digital Media Observatory (EDMO), that works with the EU DSA in Ireland, is working with a Newsguard partner called Newswhip. Newswhip is now owned by an org in Chicago called Sprout Social. Sprout Social worked Obama’s 2012 campaign, and are now linked to who went after Elon for the fine.

Let’s get a simple hierarchy out of the way first. I almost feel like I am in Soros NGO octopus land.

*Note – There are 14 European Commission funded country hubs at EDMO

– The European Digital Media Observatory (EDMO) monitors for the EU DSA

Two EDMO advisors

🔸Rebekah Tromble of George Washington University😳

🔸Clare Melford – Global Disinformation Index cofounder 😳

– Newswhip of Dublin Ireland is partnered with EDMO Ireland

– Newswhip is partnered with Newsguard

– Newswhip was purchased by Chicago based, Sprout Social, in July 2025 (Obama 2012 camp)

⚡️ EDMO Ireland is partnered with Media Literacy Ireland and runs their website

⚡️⚡️ Media Literacy Ireland is facilitated by Coimisiún na Meán aka the Irish Media Commission . (Irish Media Commission is who went after Elon.)

– EDMO main team includes the Integrity Institute that worked with Biden

*Note – EDMO Italy works with Newsguard specifically.

♦️The EDMO does fact checking monitoring for the EU Digital Services Act ( DSA).

Here’s the call put out for the EDMO hubs creation:

“Contribute to the monitoring of online platforms’ policies to tackle disinformation within the European legal and policy framework defined by the Digital Services Act, including the Code of Practice on Disinformation. The hubs’ work should be equipped with relevant expertise in this regard in order to contribute to related EDMO network investigation and analysis.”

This is from an EDMO Ireland doc:

“EDMO hubs are expected to contribute expertise to the monitoring framework. As noted, it is expected that the EU Code of Practice on Disinformation will essentially
act as a code of conduct under the DSA and pave the way for penalties if a Code signatory and VLOP fails to keep their commitments with the Code. Building on previous work assessing the implementation of the Code in Ireland and across the EU.”

Here’s some additional partners of Newswhip if you aren’t lost yet. 🤭

– Stanford

– Integrity Initiatives Stopfake in Ukraine

– Googles, First Draft News, censorship org

– German Marshall Fund (GMF) which ran Hamilton68 of the Russian bot hoax.

EDMO Italy uses Newsguard specifically. And also, Newsguard uses Newswhip as part of its product. They are solid partners.

Do you realize how much dirt I have on Newsguard, let alone Newswhip? Look at the below linked 🧵 as a small example. The IssueOne founder is a director at Newsguard. And even suggested creating Newsguard to its co-founder, Crovitz.

PS. The Obama Foundation uses Sprout Social, the new owner of Newswhip, and who also ran his campaign in 2012.😬

I’ll post my sources below and some extra info.


BK Presents The Big Tamale! During the Biden admin, we had tons of ex CIA, DHS, and military working with IssueOne for social media censorship and much WORSE!

⚡️ And they are partnered with New Politics that five of the seditious six belong to!

IssueOne is a Soros Democracy Alliance Aligned Partner Organization (APO). The list of other donors is massive, but the Protect Democracy Project stands out.

IssueOne is very capable of censorship. The founder, Nicholas Penniman, claims responsibility for getting Newsguard off the ground. Nicholas is also on the Newsguard Board Of Directors. Yes a program circulated to US schools. Plus British Telecom BT hands this out to the UK public too.

Imran Ahmed, founder of the Center For Counteting Digital Hate org that was targeting Elon Musks X is there too. As is Renee Diresta from the Trump resistance, Election Integrity Partnership, and the Hamilton86 Russian bot hoax etc.

IssueOne started the No Kings effort FOUR MONTHS before we even heard of this. And they admit to organizing it too.

Better yet? They work with Chamberlain Network. Chamberlain worked along with ex Lincoln Projects Steve Schmidt to create the first ever video telling the military to defy Trump. (June 2025)

IssueOne was also mentioned in The Times election fortification article. I can see why, but that will be in a later installment.

Let’s get into this impressive list of names at this org, for shock value. Then we will delve into the evidence and materials in the 🧵. Greater things will be coming later for this org. 😬

Names of folks that worked here:

– Leon Panetta: Former Director of the CIA (2009–2011); former Secretary of Defense (2011–2013); former White House Chief of Staff

– Porter Goss: Former Director of the CIA (2004–2006); former Congressman (R-FL). Oversaw intelligence reforms post-9/11

– Chris Krebs: Former Director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA, DHS, 2018–2020). Managed election security and cyber threats, with ties to broader intelligence coordination

– Michael Chertoff: U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security (2005-2009)

– Chuck Hagel
Secretary of Defense (2013-2015); President’s Intelligence Advisory Board (2009-2013)

– Renée DiResta Associate Research Professor for the McCourt School of ublic Policy’s Tech Public Policy prograr and Massive Data Institute

– Frances Haugen Facebook Whistleblower and Tech Expert

– Claire Woodall (zuckerbucks colluder)

– Etc

Interestingly they also seem to hang around the SNF Agora and Arena folks a lot. Such as Peter Pomerantsev. Well this is no accident.

Here’s the partners working together at “Unite America”!

IssueOne
New Politics
Protect Democracy
R Street
Vote at Home (zuckerbucks)
SNF Agora
Etc

Even more interesting is that IssueOne partners with all of these at “Perfect US”.

-CTCL Tiana Epps Johnson
-IssueOne Nick Penniman
-Brennan Ctr Wendy Weiser
-SNF Agora Scott Warren
Etc

CTCL was zuckerbucks and Brennan Center was involved in the Soros Partnership For Safe Voting. And recall my SNF Agora exposé too.

Here is the call for the formation of the European Digital Media Observatory (EDMO) hubs. This proves that they are used for monitoring and policies for the Digital Services Act (DSA).

Call Objectives:

“Contribute to the monitoring of online platforms’ policies to tackle disinformation within the European legal and policy framework defined by the Digital Services Act, including the Code of Practice on Disinformation. The hubs’ work should be equipped with relevant expertise in this regard in order to contribute to related EDMO network investigation and analysis.”

NewsWhip was sold to Chicago based Sprout Social July 2025.

Irish-founded NewsWhip sold for at least $55m:

“Sprout Social, the Nasdaq-listed social media marketing company, is buying Irish-founded media intelligence company NewsWhip in a deal potentially worth $65 million (€56.63 million).

Paul Quigley, chief executive and co-founder of NewsWhip, will step into a general manager role, overseeing Sprout Listening and NewsWhip.”

“In a statement, the Chicago-headquartered company said the transaction will see NewsWhip join Sprout Social’s so-called Listening platform, which helps clients analyse social media trends and build campaigns.”

👻👻👻Oh good lord, Rebecca Tromble and Clare Melford are advisors at EDMO.

What is a deepstate lady like Rebecca Tromble of George Washington University doing working with EU censorship?

Clare Melford is a co-founder of the Global Disinformation Index. Which was worked on by British American, Sara Terp of the CTI League files. And used by the State Departments, Global Engagement Center.

Clare Melford co-founder of global disinfo index was at misinfosec Kiev too. Plus more.

I have a Podcast transcript of video I filmed with Terp and US military on creating the Global disinformation index GDI.

Oh don’t get me going on the GDI! 👻

Oh yeah I can’t forget showing you that the Obama Campaign was ran by Sprout Social.

♦️Photo 1 see the Obama Campaign insignia listed as a customer?

https://archive.is/5YUTG

♦️ Forbes article on Sprout Social said they worked Obama’s 2012 Campaign.

“That reality may be why Sprout Social, a barely three-year-old company from Chicago, has managed to gain so much traction and accrue 10,000 customers. That army of enterprises has included Pepsi, Nokia , McDonald’s, UPS and the 2012 campaign to reelect President Barack Obama.”

Oh yeah I can’t forget showing you that the Obama Campaign was ran by Sprout Social.

Media Literacy Ireland is facilitated by the Irish Media Commission, the folks going after

Newsguard actually uses Newswhip. I’d think this makes them cozy partners. And Newswhip belongs to EDMO Ireland.

Also recall from up above that EDMO Italy works with Newsguard.

“NewsGuard uses NewsWhip to help it determine which sites and issues are most read and shared. It also relies on its own analysts, mostly trained journalists, to use their news instincts to identify worrying trends.”

👻👻👻This is on the Integrity Institute that joined the EDMO.

The Integrity Institute worked with the Biden admin at the same time as the EDMO.

Rebecca Tromble worked both at the Integrity Institute and was an advisor for EDMO.

Katie Harbath worked at the Integrity Institute also.

***

🔥🔥Arrest Biden! Why? Bidens office of the presidency is directly linked to EU censorship! Biden takes one oath at inauguration to uphold the constitution. It appears to me that he defiled it instead.

In December 2022, the disinfo and hate speech org, Integrity Institute, joined an elite Presidential Interagency Working Group, to create a global Roadmap for information researchers. Which obviously includes disinformation and hate speech.

“This Roadmap emphasizes the fact that information integrity is a global problem that necessitates global response.”

In the same month, the US Integrity Institute became a contractor for the EU’s disinformation and hate speech detections.

Policy Impact In the EU:

⊳ Informed the Code of Practice on Disinformation
⊳ Formal SME for EDMO In the UK
⊳ Contractor for Ofcom
⊳ Praised by former PM Jacinda Ardern New Zealand after briefing the Christchurch community

Biden actually began planning for this working group in 2021 and announced it at his Dec 8, 2021 Summit for Democracy.

“Combating Misinformation and Disinformation. Today, the White House announced that an interagency Information Integrity Research and Development Working Group will develop and release a first-of-its-kind strategic plan.”

The Integrity Institute also advised Google, Instagram Pinterest, Meta, and TikTok. And were also involved in global elections.

The Integrity Institute has received support from:

– Knight Fndn
– Omidyar
– Craig Newmark
– Avaaz
– Fine Schneider family Fndn

So who are some of the people working there? Rebecca Tromble, Katie Harbath, and Katie Stern!

@MikeBenzCyber exposed a video on disinfo discussions that included Harbath and Tromble AFTER I had already found this. Sorry, I forgot about it. Anywho, I’ll link the video later in this.

Katie Stern also worked at the Disarm fndn from the CTI League Files.

There was once a scandal and slack fight where the president of the Integrity Institute stepped down. It was over pro Hamas vs Israel stuff, how deserving..

All sources to follow, so please watch for my massive horde of updates. And please do arrest Biden!

👻👻👻 OMFG! Valent Projects uses Newswhip. I’ll show in my next post why that’s significant. I’ve seen Valent Projects come up a few times in EU corner already.

Valent Projects is developing a new tool to fight disinformation

“Valent Projects is a media tech start up that specializes in addressing online manipulation founded by Amil Khan”

NewsWhip’s API is expected to be one of the tool’s most important inputs. Valent Projects plans to use machine learning to sift through NewsWhip data to find content that is being reposted on hundreds, if not thousands, of accounts to clog up the social feeds of a targeted group or community. Speed will be the biggest advantage of the tool. It’s going to cut down the amount of time Valent Projects’ team needs to spend on any one account, says Khan. “That increases our capabilities in a huge way.”

“NewsWhip is an easy-to-access resource that makes Valent Projects’ work more manageable, explains Khan.”

🔥🔥Breaking! The number one recipient of USAID, Chemonics, is linked to United Kingdom psychological operations utilized against alleged “disinformation” and much more! Operations that are currently being used on X, which include doxing and threatening folks!

The UK’s Valent Projects, had a contract with Chemonics, a Washington DC-based ‘Beltway Bandit’ firm which was overseeing the Partnership Fund for a Resilient Ukraine (PFRU).

Amil Khan of Project Valient, was a member of Project Alchemy’s info ops team. Khan was hyped as a ‘StratComms Ninja. They were tracking pro-Russian disinfo targeting key audiences in key countries (e.g. US hard right, UK hard left).

The Chemonics/Valent project also focused on countering disinformation in Africa. Khan, referring to a Sudan-based effort funded by USAID’s OTI, which provides short-term assistance for political transition, discussed online criticism of the now-disintegrated, USAID-supported Khartoum government.

In December 2021, The Grayzone exposed how the then-Prince of Wales, now King Charles, enlisted Khan’s Valent Projects to astroturf a pseudo-socialist YouTube influencer to attack skeptics of the government’s Covid response.

Additional background on Project Alchemy / Project Valent :

According to leaked files, Project Alchemy’s information operations were assigned to a member of the British Army’s psychological warfare unit, the 77th Brigade. Multiple emails reviewed, suggest the role was ultimately filled by Major General Alex Turner, who headed the 77th Brigade from 2020 to 2022. Also listed as a participant in the clandestine effort was longtime British intelligence-adjacent regime change propagandist Amil Khan, who founded the ‘counter-disinformation’ analysis firm, Valent Projects.

In an effort to ‘keep Ukraine fighting,’ a group of British military strategists and spies plotted to target and destroy media outlets that threatened their preferred narrative. This group, known as Project Alchemy, was organized by the British Ministry of Defense and led by Lieutenant General Charlie Stickland. Their goal was to prolong the Ukraine proxy war at all costs.

Project Alchemy proposed a range of aggressive tactics, including cyber attacks, ‘discreet operations,’ and terrorism, inspired by Operation Gladio, a Cold War-era secret operation involving CIA and MI6 agents. @doge @realDonaldTrump

*Actually I didn’t report on Valent Projects yesterday, I discussed it with a friend.

Here’s where Newswhip partnered with over 90 orgs under Meta in 2023. This was thru their Data For Democracy Program. This also uses prediction.

“We’re excited to announce a partnership with Meta to provide NewsWhip’s tools to Meta’s Third-Party Fact-Checking (3PFC) program, the largest global fact-checking network of any platform, with more than 90 independent fact-checking organizations around the world who review and rate viral misinformation in more than 60 languages globally.”

“The partnership will extend NewsWhip access to all of Meta’s fact-checking partners around the world.”

“NewsWhip Spike is a real-time media monitoring platform that allows users to track false stories, monitor questionable sources and narratives, and predict public engagement with any story.”

The Digital New Deal Project is ran by the German Marshall Fund (GMF). The folks that ran the Hamilton68 Russian bot hoax.

“The Digital New Deal Project partnered with NewsGuard, a nonpartisan service that rates news and information websites for their reliability, and the social media intelligence firm NewsWhip to measure and compare the spread of articles from deceptive sites across Facebook.”

First Draft News was partnered with NewsWhip for its Crosscheck election program.

Recall I have proven that the first major US disinfo org, First Draft, was created by two folks under Google. Both had been in the Obama White House. While at least one was currently working with Obama during First Drafts inception. First Draft eventually went global.

A First Draft founding member org had a director that was the founder of the British 77th brigade psychological unit. And founding members also included orgs in the British intelligence cut out, Integrity Initiative.

“NewsWhip made Spike available to journalists in these newsrooms to help them efficiently and easily spot the fake stories and sources of disinformation gaining traction on social media in France, monitor the coverage around the election for fake reports, and more.

Since we launched our PARTNERSHIP in February, we have seen impressive engagement with our (Newswhip) Spike platform from these partner newsrooms.”

🔥🔥🔥Very grave implications here …

♦️Back to the Newswhip and Meta business. This means that the European Union interfered in global elections. The EU can make or break winners and losers. Including destroying what they call the far right. So that only radical liberals like themselves win.

Yes, the EU EDMO partnered, Newswhip, was involved in the US 2024 presidential election. Very Alarming…

⚡️Newswhip files seem to have disappeared. So I followed a link from the earlier posted one that I did have. And found the 90 orgs that Newswhip led in its Data For Democracy Program.

I chose early 2024 due to that being the year of our big election.

“Since 2016, the program has expanded to include more than 90 organizations fact-checking in more than 60 languages globally.”

Next post, we get to see the 90 orgs.

December 11, 2025 – Joe Kent and Tulsi Gabbard report 18,000 known terrorists were let into America by the Biden administration

As many as 18,000 terrorists entered the US during the Biden administration, National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent revealed during a House committee hearing on Thursday.

“So far, NCTC has identified around 18,000 known and suspected terrorists that the Biden administration let come into our country,” Kent testified before the House Homeland Security Committee.

“These are individuals who under normal circumstances would never be allowed to enter our country because of their ties to jihadi groups like ISIS and al-Qaeda,” he said.

“Yet the Biden administration not only let them into the country and in many cases facilitated their entry into the country just like the entry of the Afghan terrorists who committed the terrorist attack here just before Thanksgiving, killing one of our National Guard members and wounding another.”

The FBI foiled other ISIS terror attacks in Michigan and New Jersey earlier this year.

A self-described Hamas operative also infiltrated the ranks of the US Air Force in 2023 and later planned to carry out a pipe bomb attack with two others — before he was thwarted in April.

Before Trump took office, a suspected ISIS terrorist mowed down and shot at New Year’s revelers on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, killing 14 people.

Kent pointed out in the House hearing that the accused National Guard shooter, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, was “just one of 88,000” Afghans — and his counterterrorism office has since “identified 2,000 of that group of 88,000 who have ties to terrorist organizations.”

December 12, 2025 – Judicial Watch sues for FBI records on Hunter Biden’s infamous laptop

The Hunter Biden saga drags on as the government clings to details about his laptop.

In our latest effort to pry this information loose, we filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Justice for all FBI investigative records concerning Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop, which contained extensive evidence of Biden family business dealings (Judicial Watch Inc. v. U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:25-cv-04240)).

The Justice Department’s refusal to release these basic investigative records raises serious questions about transparency and potential interference in one of the most consequential political stories in recent history. We will fight in court to get the public the answers it is entitled to under the law.

We sued in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia after the FBI failed to respond to a January 29, 2025, FOIA request for:

All FBI investigative reports, witness interview summaries, memoranda, and other records related to the investigation of Hunter Biden’s laptop.

All emails, text messages, Lync messages and other electronic communications records related to the Hunter Biden laptop.

IRS whistleblowers confirmed that the FBI became aware of Hunter Biden’s laptop as early as October 2019 and verified its authenticity in November 2019. The FBI took possession of it in December 2019.

In October 2020, through information obtained from Hunter Biden’s laptop, the New York Post began publishing reports about the Biden family’s business arrangements.

In an August 2022 letter, Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) highlighted whistleblower concerns about the handling of the FBI’s investigation, noting that the Bureau appeared to take no visible action for months despite possessing the verified laptop well before the 2020 presidential election.

We have filed numerous FOIA lawsuits seeking transparency on the Hunter Biden investigations and related matters.

In July 2025, we sued the Justice Department for all records from the Offices of Attorney General, Deputy Attorney General, and Associate Attorney General regarding Joe Biden’s controversial pardon of Hunter Biden (Judicial Watch Inc. v. U.S. Department of State (No. 1:25-cv-02143)).

A hearing was held in July 2025 in the FOIA lawsuit against the National Archives for Biden family records and communications regarding travel and finance transactions, as well as communications between the Bidens and several known business associates (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. National Archives (No. 1:23-cv-01432).

In February 2025, we filed a lawsuit against the Justice Department for records and communications regarding the Internal Revenue Service’s investigation of Hunter Biden (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. U.S. Department of Justice (No.1:24-cv-03387)).

In June 2024, we received records from the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) showing Mike Morell, former acting CIA director under President Obama, requesting CIA permission to publish a letter by former intelligence community leaders stating that they believed the laptop emails exposing Hunter Biden’s connections to Ukraine were Russian disinformation. Morrell’s request for prepublication review was approved in just six hours by the CIA (Judicial Watch v. Central Intelligence Agency (No. 1:23-cv-01844)).

In January 2024, we filed a lawsuit against the Justice Department for records of communications between the FBI and social media sites regarding foreign influence in elections, as well as Big Tech censorship of the Hunter Biden laptop story (Judicial Watch Inc. v U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:23-cv-00079)).

In October 2022, we sued the DOJ for all records in the possession of FBI Supervisory Intelligence Analyst Brian Auten regarding an August 6, 2020, briefing provided to members of the U.S. Senate. Ron Johnson (R-WI) and Chuck Grassley (R-IA) raised concerns that the briefing was intended to undermine the senators’ investigation of Hunter Biden (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:22-cv-02821)).

We filed a lawsuit against the U.S. State Department on April 20, 2022, for messages sent through the SMART (State Messaging and Archive Retrieval Toolkit) system that mention Hunter Biden (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of State(No. 1:22-cv-01066)).

In December 2020, State Department records obtained through a Judicial Watch FOIA lawsuit showed that former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie “Masha” Yovanovitch had specifically warned in 2017 about corruption allegations against Burisma Holdings. Previously in this case, State Department records included a briefing checklist of a February 22, 2019, meeting in Kyiv between then-U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch and Sally Painter, co-founder and chief operating officer of Blue Star Strategies, a Democratic lobbying firm which was hired by Burisma Holdings to combat corruption allegations. At the time of the meeting, Hunter Biden was serving on the board of directors for Burisma Holdings (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of State (No. 1:20-cv-00229)).

December 12, 2025 – A Clinton-appointed judge orders the DOJ to return all materials it seized from Comey’s media mole

A Clinton-appointed judge on Friday ordered the DOJ to return all materials it seized from Comey’s media mole a week after she blocked federal prosecutors from accessing key evidence in the criminal case against James Comey.

Comey’s secret media mole, Daniel Richman, recently sought to block the Justice Department from accessing his files as the Trump Administration prepares to hit James Comey with a new indictment.

The feds seized materials from Daniel Richman several years ago and he asked a judge to block the DOJ from accessing his files.

A grand jury in the Eastern District of Virginia indicted former FBI Director James Comey in September. He was indicted on two counts – false statements and obstruction of a congressional proceeding.

The charges are related to Comey’s testimony to Senate investigators in September 2020 about whether he authorized leaks to the media.

Newly released November 2016 emails reveal that James Comey was guiding his media mole, Daniel Richman, and authorized leaks to the media.

James Comey knew his ‘friend’ Daniel Richman was talking to the media, backing up claims in Lindsey Halligan’s case against the former FBI Director.

On Friday, Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly, appointed by Clinton, ordered the DOJ to return all data it seized from Daniel Richman. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 12/13/2025)  (Archive)

December 13, 2025 – The “peacekeeper” volunteer security for “No Kings” rally, trained by Armed Queers SLC, is charged with second-degree manslaughter

Update: The leftist “peacekeeper” volunteer security trained by Armed Queers SLC has been charged by the Salt Lake County District Attorney with second-degree manslaughter for allegedly shooting dead “No Kings” protest bystander Arthur “Afa” Folasa Ah Loo.

During the anti-Trump June 14, 2025 “No Kings” rally, Matthew Scott Alder allegedly chased down an armed radical leftist (Arturo Gamboa) who he mistook for a MAGA-Kyle Rittenhouse threat. Alder allegedly fired into the crowd, killing a bystander and wounding Gamboa.

A lawyer for the family says Armed Queers hasn’t been cooperative in helping them get names of who was involved in organizing the security. They were all using aliases.

December 14, 2025 – House Oversight report reveals DC Police chief manipulated crime statistics

House Oversight panel has released a report alleging the outgoing police chief for Washington, D.C., manipulated crime statistics, pressuring commanders to create the appearance that the situation in the nation’s capital is better than the numbers in fact show.

Metropolitan Police Department commanders testified that Chief Pamela A. Smith cultivated an environment of “fear, intimidation, threats, and retaliation,” which “contributed directly to declining morale and the loss of experienced officers and commanders,” the GOP-led House Oversight Committee said Sunday in announcing the release of the report.

“Every single person who lives, works, or visits the District of Columbia deserves a safe city, yet it’s now clear the American people were deliberately kept in the dark about the true crime rates in our nation’s capital,” committee Chairman James Comer said in announcing the release.

“Testimony from experienced and courageous MPD commanders has exposed the truth: Chief Pamela Smith coerced staff to report artificially low crime data and cultivated a culture of fear to achieve her agenda.

“Chief Smith’s decision to mislead the public by manipulating crime statistics is dangerous and undermines trust in both local leadership and law enforcement. Her planned resignation at the end of the month should not be seen as a voluntary choice, but as an inevitable consequence that should have occurred much earlier. Chief Smith should resign today.”

Last week, Smith announced her resignation after two and a half years in the role. The committee noted that her announcement followed the panel’s interviews with the commanders.

According to testimony in the committee’s interim staff report, Smith was more focused on lowering the publicly reported crime numbers than reducing actual crime, putting pressure on MPD commanders to produce low crime statistics by any means necessary.

December 14, 2025 – Rob Reiner and wife are murdered in their home; their son Nick Reiner is arrested for their murders

The tragic deaths of filmmaker Rob Reiner and his wife Michele on December 14, 2025, have cast a somber shadow over Hollywood, prompting reflections on legacy, loss, and the lingering scars of political division.

In response, President Donald Trump’s Truth Social post on December 15, 2025 – framing their passing through the lens of “Trump Derangement Syndrome” (TDS) – has ignited controversy.

Yet, when examined against the backdrop of Reiner’s decade-long barrage of vitriolic rhetoric against Trump, the statement emerges not as callous, but as an appropriate blend of pointed satire, genuine sympathy, and a timely concern for mental health. This piece builds an ironclad case for its fittingness, rooted in factual history, psychological insight, and legal precedent.

To understand the appropriateness of Trump’s words, one must first confront the unyielding hostility Reiner directed at him since 2015.

Reiner, celebrated for directing classics like “This Is Spinal Tap” and “The Princess Bride,” transformed into one of Trump’s most vocal detractors after his presidential candidacy. In a 2016 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Reiner labeled Trump a “con man” and “dangerous,” warning he would erode democratic norms. This escalated over the years.

By 2018, Reiner tweeted comparisons of Trump to Hitler, accusing him of fostering fascism and white supremacy. His 2024 documentary “God & Country” explicitly tied Trump’s influence to Christian nationalism, portraying it as a threat to American democracy.

Reiner’s social media feed became a relentless stream of attacks, calling Trump a “pathological liar,” “sociopath,” and “existential danger” in posts that amassed millions of views.

Even in 2025, shortly before his death, Reiner urged boycotts of Trump-related events, framing his re-election as apocalyptic. These were not isolated jabs but a sustained campaign, often personal and inflammatory, that Reiner himself admitted stemmed from deep-seated outrage.

This history of antagonism, predominantly initiated by Reiner, sets the stage for why Trump’s response is not only defensible but proportionate.

Far from escalating the feud posthumously, Trump’s post acknowledges Reiner’s talents – “a tortured and struggling, but once very talented movie director and comedy star” – while attributing the tragedy to TDS, a “mind-crippling disease” fueled by “raging obsession.” This framing isn’t baseless invention; it’s grounded in credible psychological analysis.

Critics have questioned the timing of Trump’s post, issued just a day after the tragedy, as potentially too raw or opportunistic. However, this immediacy is precisely what makes it authentic and effective, aligning with Trump’s longstanding style of direct, unfiltered leadership in a 24/7 news cycle where narratives solidify within hours.

Historical precedents abound; consider how President Lincoln addressed critics’ deaths or political losses with prompt wit during the Civil War, using fresh moments to foster national introspection and prevent distorted legacies. Similarly, Trump’s swift response cuts through emerging media spin – already framing Reiner solely as a heroic anti-Trump voice – by injecting balance and psychological truth right when public discourse peaks.

Delaying would risk seeming calculated or detached, whereas this timing underscores sincerity, especially paired with the post’s sympathetic close. In essence, it’s not haste but strategic candor, transforming grief into a teachable moment on division’s dangers before emotions calcify.

Transitioning from personal history to broader insight, TDS has been recognized by mental health experts as a manifestation of intense political polarization leading to real psychological strain. Psychiatrist Dr. Keith Ablow, in analyses shared on platforms like the Mark Simone Show, described TDS as rooted in “mass hysteria,” where individuals project anxieties onto a political figure, resulting in paranoia, chronic stress, and potential health declines.

Research in the Journal of Abnormal Psychology supports this, linking partisan hatred to elevated cortisol levels, anxiety disorders, and weakened well-being. Trump’s reference to TDS isn’t mockery; it’s a diagnostic observation, highlighting how Reiner’s fixation – evident in his own words – might have contributed to personal tolls, especially amid reports of familial strife surrounding the deaths.

By raising this, Trump shifts the narrative from vendetta to vigilance, urging awareness of how ideological obsessions erode lives.

Moreover, the post’s satirical edge aligns with a storied tradition of political commentary, making it intellectually apt rather than insensitive. Trump employs hyperbole – “driving people CRAZY” amid America’s “Golden Age” – to underscore the irony of Reiner’s paranoia against tangible achievements like record economic growth, Middle East peace accords, and energy independence during his administration. This mirrors Jonathan Swift’s exaggerated proposals in “A Modest Proposal” or Abraham Lincoln’s witty rebukes of critics, using humor to expose societal flaws without literal malice.

Legally, such expression is shielded by the First Amendment; the Supreme Court’s ruling in Hustler Magazine v. Falwell affirms that satirical opinions about public figures, absent provable falsehoods, are protected speech. Trump’s “reportedly due to” phrasing acknowledges speculation, ensuring it remains opinion, not defamation.

What elevates the statement to appropriateness is its undercurrent of grace amid past unkindnesses, including Trump’s rare direct engagement with Reiner pre-tragedy despite the instigations. The post concludes with “May Rob and Michele rest in peace!”

This isn’t perfunctory; it’s a sincere extension of sympathy, humanizing both parties and transcending the feud while modeling reciprocity in an era of unrelenting acrimony. Trump’s words match rhetoric’s intensity yet cap it with compassion and a mental health caveat, turning potential gloating into a nudge toward understanding division’s toll.

In conclusion, Trump’s response is ironclad in its fittingness because it reciprocates a decade of Reiner’s attacks with measured satire, validates psychological realities, and prioritizes sympathy over score-settling. It doesn’t diminish the tragedy but illuminates division’s costs, encouraging reflection.

December 15, 2025 – FBI thwarts planned terrorist attack on New Years Eve; terrorists include radical pro-Palestinians and a Transtifa member

Over the weekend, the @FBI disrupted a credible, imminent terrorist threat and arrested FOUR individuals connected to the Los Angeles area.

The subjects self-identified as members of a radical offshoot of the Turtle Island Liberation Front (TILF), an extremist group motivated by pro-Palestinian, anti-law-enforcement, and anti-government ideology. They were allegedly planning coordinated IED bombing attacks on New Year’s Eve, targeting five separate locations across Los Angeles.

In the days since, @FBINewOrleans arrested an additional FIFTH individual believed to be linked to this radical TILF subgroup – also allegedly planning a separate violent attack.

Outstanding work by our investigators and law enforcement partners
@TheJusticeDept. Their work undoubtedly saved countless lives.

@FBILosAngeles will hold a press conference later today to share additional details.

***

I can exclusively report that the fifth unnamed arrested suspect in the Turtle Island Liberation Front New Year’s Eve mass bombing terror plot is Trantifa militant Micah James Legnon (center photo, in blue).

Legnon is on a federal hold in Lafayette, La. He is a trans activist and identifies as a female. His social media is filled with posts calling for the m—rder of people he labels as “fascists.”

Authorities say the Turtle Island Liberation Front, a far-left communist “decolonization” terror group, planned to blow up ICE agents and locations with homemade bombs. Audrey Illeene Carroll, 30; Zachary Aaron Page (trans), 32; Tina Lai, 41; and Dante Gaffield, 24, are the other comrades arrested in Los Angeles after they were caught allegedly traveling to the desert to test their explosives.

Legnon is an ex-Marine and a former cop.

December 15, 2025 – JD Vance points out the consequence of the Senate “Blue Slip” veto of judicial nominees

The blue slip process has been a part of the Senate’s judicial nomination procedure since at least 1917. When a President nominates an individual for a U.S. circuit or district court judgeship, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee sends a blue slip —a form colored blue— to the two Senators representing the nominee’s home state. This form allows the Senators to express their opinions about the nominee.

Positive Response: If a home-state Senator has no objections, they return the blue slip with a positive response, indicating support for the nominee. Negative Response or Withholding: If a Senator objects, they may either return the slip with a negative response or choose not to return it at all. In both cases, this is treated as a lack of support for the nominee, which halts the nomination process.

JD Vance notes this process is being used to manipulate the appointments of Judges in leftist states. This creates a dual justice system; one of the core issues within our extremely divided nation.

JD Vance is not wrong.  However, as with all things corrupted within the state of our Republic, if the blue slip process is removed the next leftist President can corrupt the judiciary within Republican states.

Of course, all of this is an outcome of the 17th Amendment, which stopped the state legislatures from having control over their senators.  Under the original constitutional framework, the Senate was designed to represent the interests of the state, as the Senators were appointed by state legislature, not popular votes.  The Sea Island assembly destroyed this cornerstone when they triggered the 17th Amendment.

Repeal the 17th Amendment, and just about everything in federal government changes.

Machiavelli said, “It must be remembered that there is nothing more difficult to plan, more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to manage than a new system. For the initiator has the enmity of all who would profit by the preservation of the old institution and merely lukewarm defenders in those who gain by the new ones.”  A prescient and oft repeated quote that is pertinent to the situation.

The signing of the American Constitution (Credit: public domain)

When our founders created the system of government for our constitutional republic, they built in layers of protection from federal control over the lives of people in the states.  Over time, those protections have been eroded as the federal bureaucracy has seized power.  One of the biggest changes that led to the creation of the permanent political class was the 17th Amendment.

Our founders created a system where Senators were appointed by the state legislatures.  In this original system, the Senate was bound by obligation to look out for the best interests of their specific states.  Under the ‘advise and consent‘ rules of Senate confirmation for executive branch appointments, the intent was to ensure the presidential appointee -who would now carry out regulatory activity- would not undermine the independent position of the states.

The nucleus of corruption amid every element of the federal institutions of government is the United States Senate.   The U.S. Senate, also known as the “upper chamber,” is the single most powerful elected element in modern federal government.

The Intelligence Branch is the most powerful branch of government.  However, the U.S. Senate is the most powerful assembly of federally elected officials.  We pretend the IC branch doesn’t exist; that’s part of our problem.  At least we admit the Senate exists.

All other elected federal corruption is dependent on a corrupt and ineffective Senate.  If we correct the problems with the Senate, and reconnect the representation within the chamber to the state-level legislative bodies, we will then see immediate change.  However, there would be ZERO institutional allies in this effort.

When the 17th Amendment (direct voting for Senators) took the place of state appointments, the perspective of ‘advise and consent’ changed.  The Senate was now in the position of ensuring the presidential appointee did not undermine the power of the permanent bureaucracy, which is the root of power for the upper-chamber.

Senate committees, Homeland Security, Judiciary, Intelligence, Armed Services, Foreign Relations, etc. now consists of members who carry an imbalanced level of power within government.  The Senate now controls who will be in charge of executive branch agencies like the DOJ, DHS, FBI, CIA, ODNI, DoD, State Dept and NSA, from the position of their own power and control in Washington DC.

In essence, the 17th Amendment flipped the intent of the constitution from protecting the individual states to protecting the federal government.

Almost every source of federal issue: ex. spending, intervention and foreign assistance, conflict with the states, burdensome regulation, surveillance and spying on American citizens, the two-tiered justice system and the erosion of liberty & individual rights (see COVID examples), can be sourced back to the problem created by the 17th Amendment.

Because of the scale of their power, the Senate will not give up control easily; and every institution of society and government will actively work to block/stop We The People from taking back control of the upper chamber.  Every entity from Wall Street to multinational corporations, big tech, banks, foreign governments and world organizations would align against us.   When you truly understand the epicenter of the corruption, then you are able to see the tentacles extending from it.

It would be easy to say “repeal the 17th Amendment;“ it is ‘another kettle of fish’ entirely to walk through the process to make that happen.  Yes, ultimately, we do need a full repeal of the 17th Amendment and return the selection of the senators from each state with a nomination and appointment process within the state legislature.  [Common Explainer Here]

Seventeenth Amendment- “The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each State, elected by the people thereof, for six years; and each Senator shall have one vote. The electors in each State shall have the qualifications requisite for electors of the most numerous branch of the State legislatures.

When vacancies happen in the representation of any State in the Senate, the executive authority of such State shall issue writs of election to fill such vacancies: Provided, That the legislature of any State may empower the executive thereof to make temporary appointments until the people fill the vacancies by election as the legislature may direct.” (link)

Prior to the 17th Amendment, there was significant state level corruption as business interests, and Senate candidates worked in power groups with party officials to attain the position.  Politicians seeking Senate seats began campaigning for state legislative candidates in order to assemble support.

The state legislative races then became a process of influence amid powerful interests seeking to support their Senate candidate.   Get the right people in the State legislature, and you can get the Senator appointed.

Those state-level entities, bankers, wealthy people of influence, later became the permanent K-Street lobbying groups once the 17th Amendment was ratified. In essence, they just shifted the location of their influence operation from the state to an office in Washington DC.   [Those same power groups, albeit much larger, now write the physical legislation we see in congress.]  Additionally, prior to the 17th Amendment, there were issues of vacancies in federal senate seats as state legislatures could not agree on an individual Senator.

The biggest issue following the passage of the 17th Amendment became Senators who were no longer representing the interests of their state.  Instead, they were representing the interests of the power elite groups who were helping them fund the mechanisms of their re-election efforts.

A Senator only needs to run for re-election every six years.  The 17th Amendment is the only amendment that changed the structure of the Congress, as it was written by the founders.

Over time, the Senate chamber itself began using their advice and consent authority to control the executive and judicial branch.  The origination of a nomination now holds the question: “Can this person pass the Senate confirmation process?”

The Senate now abuses this power to ensure no one challenges them.  Additionally, the Senate began using their oversight capacity to control elements within the executive branch and judicial branch.   The full scope of that issue in modern form is OUTLINED HERE – which is the cornerstone of the Intelligence Branch of Government.

If we could repeal the 17th Amendment and return the selection to the state legislature, you can see where the background work of Tactical Civics and Extreme Federalism begin to take on importance.   [NOTE: Within the repeal effort, we would need to include a recall process for states to reach out and yank back their Senator if they go astray; the ability to recall was missing in the original construct of the framers; it would need to be added.]

◊ PATH ONE is the primary platform of the presidential candidate…. a visible and emphasized mandate that includes: “vote me into office and you are voting to repeal the 17th Amendment “.  This specific election issue would need to be the #1 priority of the candidate and spoken at every event.

This approach gives a presidential candidate the mandate to demand congress to act if he won the 2024 election.  We need a warrior of epic strength, resolve and fortitude.

◊ PATH TWO is the parallel path built along with the election platform path and put into place in the event that Congress refused to accept the mandate.

Obviously, this would be an ugly battle.   The second path is a convention of states. 

The ‘convention of states‘ would need to be detailed, strategically planned, and the future schedule determined during the GOP convention preceding the November election (assuming the right candidate wins).   That way, if Congress refuses to act on their own, within say the first 100 days of the new administration, the state legislatures will then assemble a convention for the singular and limited purpose of one action item: “repeal the 17th Amendment “.  That’s it. Full Stop.  Nothing more. Nothing else entertained.

There is a lot more to this, and a lot more to cover in discussion of this.  However, this is the path that can resolve most of the issues we face with an out-of-control federal government.   The shift in power would kneecap the Intelligence Branch of Government by re-instituting genuine oversight and control. A repeal of the 17th Amendment stops Senators from campaigning, needing to raise money and puts them directly into the accountability position as a steward for the interests of their state.

The people within each state would then have a mechanism to address any negative federal action by contacting their state legislative representative.  In a worst-case scenario, a rogue Senator could be removed within days if they support any federal legislative activity that is not in alignment with the state interest.  This approach also wipes out most of the power amid the Senate Majority Leader, as he/she could also be recalled by the state and would be less likely to work against the interests of the majority in the chamber.

The House of Representatives was created to be the voice of the people, ie, “The Peoples’ House.”  However, the U.S. Senate was structurally created to be the place where state government had representation in the federal government decision-making.  The 17th Amendment completely removed state representation, and we have been in an escalating battle over state’s rights ever since.

Overlay that DC structural issue with the fact that almost all of the bureaucracy created by this skewed DC system is now in place to defend itself from any outside effort to change it, and you get this UniParty problem that Donald Trump fully exposed.

Repeal the 17th Amendment, and we would see the most significant restoration of freedom, liberty and social balance in our lifetime. (Conservative Treehouse, 12/15/2025)  (Archive)

 

December 15, 2025 – New FBI docs reveal how the Weiner laptop was suppressed and kept hidden

Newly-released FBI documents show that Attorney General Loretta Lynch met with the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Arkansas, which was investigating the Clinton Foundation, on the same day that SDNY got a search warrant for Weiner’s computer.

The computer, also used by Weiner’s wife—Hillary’s top aide, Huma Abedin—contained Hillary emails with possible evidence of Clinton Foundation corruption.

Lynch previously told the investigators to shut down any investigation into the Clintons or the Clinton Foundation.

Following the Loretta Lynch meeting with Clinton Foundation investigators, McCabe ordered that the Weiner laptop must not be shared with the Clinton Foundation investigation.

On McCabe’s orders, the Weiner laptop was buried with Peter Strzok’s ‘Midyear Exam’ team.

The Weiner Laptop: A Smoking Gun Suppressed

October 2016 brought a bombshell: The discovery of Clinton emails on Weiner’s laptop during a child exploitation probe. But FBI HQ refused to let the Clinton Foundation team coordinate with the email investigation (Midyear Exam), crafting a narrowly tailored search warrant that excluded Clinton Foundation angles.

Weeks before the 2016 presidential election, the FBI leadership, Comey and McCabe, hid the potential evidence of the corruption of presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, to help her in the election.

Leaks to the Wall Street Journal exposed McCabe’s conflict, forcing his recusal on November 1 – but by that stage the Weiner laptop with Hillary emails was buried by Peter Strzok and co.

Internal memos from EAD Randy Coleman confirm McCabe and EAD Michael Steinbach’s decision to silo the laptop review to Midyear Exam team filled with anti-Trump zealots headed by Peter Strzok.

This meant potential evidence of Foundation crimes – like emails tied to Abedin or Clinton domains – stayed hidden.

Even in 2018-2020 attempts to revisit, warrants were withdrawn over “constitutional concerns”, leaving leads like foreign witnesses untapped.

🚨The Weiner Laptop: A Smoking Gun Suppressed

Explosive New Documents Expose How FBI and DOJ Cronies Shielded the Clintons – And Why They Desperately Sabotaged Trump

The Deep State swamp creatures went all-in on the Russia hoax to stop Donald Trump from winning the 2016 Presidential Election. When he won anyway, they doubled down to take down President Trump.

That’s because President Trump represented a serious threat to the Deep State and their corrupt dealings.

The latest whistleblower revelations from the FBI and the DoJ lay it in stark detail how McCabe, Comey and their allies at the DoJ protected Hillary Clinton, their candidate, despite agents in the field attempting to investigate her.

Released today, these internal FBI and DOJ records reveal a blatant protection racket for Hillary Clinton and her foundation.

Top Obama-Biden era officials, including disgraced FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, actively obstructed investigations into potential Clinton corruption

It was a calculated cover-up that fueled the sabotage of Trump’s presidency to protect their own hides.

Key takeaways from these damning files:

McCabe’s Blatant Conflicts and Orders to Stand Down: McCabe, whose wife pocketed over $675,000 in campaign cash from Clinton ally Terry McAuliffe (a Clinton Foundation board member), personally directed agents to halt “overt investigative steps” without his approval.

Emails show explicit bans on subpoenas, interviews, or even sharing bank info related to the Clintons – all to avoid “any impression we are investigating the Clinton Foundation or the Clintons.”

This came straight from “higher, i.e., the DD (McCabe)” just months before the 2016 election.

Weiner Laptop Blockade: When Anthony Weiner’s laptop surfaced in 2016 with Clinton-linked emails, FBI HQ under McCabe blocked the Foundation probe team from accessing it, funneling everything to the biased “Midyear” squad (including anti-Trump zealot Peter Strzok).

The same “Midyear Exam” Hillary protection squad has been shielding Clinton insiders like Weiner’s wife Huma Abedin from the Hillary email investigation.

Post-Election Interference: Even after Trump won, holdovers provided incomplete timelines omitting leadership meddling when the probe reopened in 2017.

Requests for key evidence “ruffled feathers” at Main Justice, with no responses, and prosecutors flagged “conflicts of interest” in DOJ’s Public Integrity Section tied to the 2016 Clinton probes.

Double Standards on Display: While agents were muzzled on Clinton, the same apparatus unleashed the bogus Russia collusion narrative against Trump – a witch hunt rooted in Clinton-produced and Soros-funded lies like the “Steele Dossier”.

It’s no coincidence: They feared Trump’s DOJ would pursue these leads aggressively, exposing pay-to-play schemes, foreign donations, and potential violations under laws like bribery (18 U.S.C. § 201) and money laundering (18 U.S.C. §§ 1956-1957).

These revelations underscore a simple truth: The Clinton cronies and their FBI enablers conspired to protect Hillary and attack Donald Trump, the People’s Candidate.

Trump represented the end of their impunity, promising to drain the swamp and hold the powerful accountable.

That’s why they fabricated the Russiagate Hoax, leaking lies about “Trump-Russia ties” and starting the FBI investigation of the Trump campaign to derail Donald Trump’s campaign and presidency.

December 15, 2025 – Grassley letter: FBI caught Hillary Clinton discussing donations with foreign felon; explains how Weiner laptop investigation was shut down

As Hillary Clinton closed in on the presidential nomination in the spring of 2016, FBI field officers advised colleagues at headquarters to press her on the foreign donations flowing to the Clinton Foundation while she steered American foreign policy and whether she had used the charity as a campaign piggy bank.

But FBI HQ in Washington — a city in which the former secretary of state and first lady wields enormous influence — let the trail go cold.

FBI New York Assistant Director in Charge Diego Rodriguez advised agents in Washington to ask Clinton several questions about the foundation, which are reproduced in full in documents released to the Senate Judiciary Committee by the FBI and published on Dec. 15. (p. 22) The questions reveal the concerns about foreign bribery that the Clinton Foundation case — codenamed “Cracked Foundation” — had uncovered. (p. 41)

Among the evidence available to investigators, according to their questions: A recorded conversation between Clinton and Indian hotel magnate Sant Singh Chatwal in which Clinton discussed donations to the foundation and her remaining 2008 campaign debt. The new documents confirm that FBI had at one time been “intercepting individuals associated with the Clinton Foundation.” (p. 23)

But when Clinton arrived to the FBI two months later, in July 2016, to answer questions about her use of a private email server in a separate investigation codenamed “Midyear Exam,” D.C. agents asked nothing about the allegations of pay-to-play with foreign governments or use of the global charity as a slush fund.

(…) Chatwal, a longtime family friend and donor, served as a trustee to the Clinton Foundation, a chair of the exploratory committee that preceded Clinton’s 2008 presidential run, and even clinched an invitation to Chelsea Clinton’s wedding, according to a 2016 book by investigative journalist Peter Schweizer called “Clinton Cash,” which helped kick off the Cracked Foundation investigation.

Forbes estimated Chatwal’s properties to be worth $750 million in a 2006 profile.

He pled guilty to laundering straw donations to Clinton’s 2008 campaign committee in 2014, forfeiting $1 million in a deal with the Department of Justice.

“That’s the only way to buy them, get into the system,” Chatwal had told an FBI informant in that case.

The FBI had recorded Chatwal discussing straw donations in 2010 and sought to expand that investigation to the Clinton Foundation, but FBI headquarters would not allow it, the documents state. (p. 5)

Excerpts from Senator Grassley’s letter and timeline of events – 12/15/2025:

(…) According to emails obtained by my office, on July 20, 2016—111 days before the 2016
election—an agent with the FBI’s Criminal Investigative Division (CID) stated that, “based on
the sensitivities surrounding the Clinton Foundation,” agents were prohibited from “subpoena[ing] additional records related to the Foundation, the Clintons”; “conduct[ing] any interviews related to the Foundation or the Clintons”; and “shar[ing] any of the Foundation bank account info with any other offices.” Emails also show that the FBI “[did] not want to create any impression we are investigating the Clinton Foundation or the Clintons. Internal FBI emails from January 12, 2017, show that the direction came from “higher, i.e., the DD (McCabe).”

Bill Sweeney (Credit: public domain)

Records provided to my office show that on September 26, 2016, the US Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York (SDNY) obtained a search warrant for the laptop of Anthony Weiner, whose wife, Huma Abedin, was a political aide to Hillary Clinton during her time as Secretary of State, in connection with a child exploitation investigation. During the course of their investigation, the SDNY discovered information on the Weiner laptop connected to the FBI’s investigation into Hillary Clinton’s mishandling of classified information. According to the records provided to my office, on November 1, 2016, the FBI’s New York Field Office (NYFO) former-Assistant Director in Charge (ADIC) Sweeney, requested that the Clinton Foundation investigative team be allowed to either review the Weiner laptop or be provided a briefing by the Weiner review team, which allegedly FBI HQ initially refused.

Randall Coleman (Credit: public domain)

For example, according to records provided to my office, on November 7, 2016, then Executive Assistant Director (EAD) Coleman noted that “[i]t was determined by DD McCabe and EAD Steinbach that any follow on investigative activity concerning the emails located on Anthony Weiner’s laptop would be reviewed by the MIDYEAR investigative team.” Accordingly, it appears that the Clinton Foundation investigators, at that time, had to depend on the MIDYEAR team, which included Peter Strzok, for information.

Cody Hiland (Credit: public domain)

Furthermore, on July 24, 2017, under the Trump administration, the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Arkansas (USAO EDAR) and FBI Little Rock reopened their investigation into the Clinton Foundation. During the course of their investigation, in November 2017, the US Attorney for the EDAR, Cody Hiland, requested information from then-head of DOJ PIN Ray Hulser and then-Acting Chief Anna Lou Tirol about “who made the decision to shut the [original] case down.” Documents provided to my office also note that Hulser provided Hiland with a timeline that “omitted ALL references to interference from DOJ and FBI leadership.”

Emails provided to my office also show that during the course of their reopened investigation, in July 2018, attorneys at the EDAR requested additional information to determine “whether sufficient probable cause exists to submit a search warrant affidavit for the Weiner laptop related to violations of 18 U.S.C. 201(b) and 201(c), 18 U.S.C. § 208, 18 U.S.C. §§ 1343, 1344, 18 U.S.C. § 1956, 1957, 18 U.S.C. § 1962 and perhaps other statutes.” EDAR attorneys also stated that for their team to make the assessment, “our office has determined that there is a need to be given access to some of the information described in the OIG Report that was released on June 11, 2018. This is necessary in order to determine if additional information related to these potential violations is currently possessed and already within the government’s knowledge.” According to emails, the request “ruffled some feathers” and the EDAR didn’t “receive[] any response from that request.”

Jonathan D. Ross (Credit: public domain)

Emails from September 2018 also indicate that Assistant United States Attorney (AUSA) Jonathan Ross at the EDAR had concerns about support from Main Justice and PIN regarding  the Clinton Foundation investigation, stating that “[b]ut as we have previously discussed, there appear to be conflicts of interest for the leadership there related to the 2016 [Clinton] investigations that undermine any confidence we might normally have in looking to them for assistance.” According to documents provided to my office, prosecutors at the EDAR recommended in July 2019 that a referral be made to the DOJ OIG regarding the “manner in which the investigation had been conducted,” and that they did what they could do “about the interference by DOJ and FBI leadership at the time with the FBI’s [Clinton Foundation] investigation.”

The above are just some examples of interference that occurred when agents and prosecutors investigated the Clinton Foundation. In order for Congress to conduct proper oversight of past DOJ and FBI conduct, please provide the following no later than December 29, 2025:

1. Provide the report titled “Anthony Weiner Laptop Review for Communications Pertinent
to Midyear Exam” dated November 15, 2016.
2. Provide all records related to the search warrant affidavits for Anthony Weiner’s laptop.
3. Provide all records related to the “yellow sheet of paper, at least 7 separate domains viewed on the device that were affiliated with the Clintons,” which was provided to a NYFO ASAC by a NYFO SA Forensic Examiner.
4. Provide all records related to the decision to withdraw the third 2020 search warrant for the Weiner laptop including copies of all documents attached to the FBI EC titled “Withdrawn Search Warrant – Western Digital Hard Disk Drive, MODEL WD2003FZEX, S/N WMC6N0D5ZNA9.”
5. Provide the document titled “Investigative History, Status, and Recommendations Concerning the Clinton Foundation.”
6. Provide all emails related to the Clinton Foundation investigation and Anthony Weiner laptop to, from, or cc’ing Cody Hiland, Jonathan Ross, John Huber, Andrew McCabe, Diane Upchurch, Randy Coleman, Ray Hulser, and Anna Lou Tirol.
7. Provide all records requested in the July 5, 2018, email titled “Request for information related to DOJ OIG report issued June 11, 2018.”
8. Provide all emails and records in Exhibit 1, as well as records produced in conjunction with this letter, in unredacted form.

December 16, 2025 – FBI to give Congress bombshell memos warning Biden DOJ didn’t have probable cause to raid Trump home

(Credit: Conservative Treehouse)

Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel are preparing to turn over to Congress bombshell emails showing the FBI warned that the Biden Justice Department did not have probable cause to raid President Donald Trump‘s home at Mar-a-Lago, but prosecutors proceeded anyways, Just the News has learned.

The emails are to be turned over as early as Tuesday to the Senate and House Judiciary committees, ahead of a planned deposition Wednesday from ex-special prosecutor Jack Smith, who inherited the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case just months after the August 2022 raid of Trump’s home that rocked the political world ahead of the 2024 election.

The memos show the FBI’s Washington field office “does not believe they established probable cause” prior to raiding Trump’s Florida home, according to one source with direct knowledge of the memos about to be turned over to Congress.

It has long been rumored that some FBI agents disagreed with the decision to raid Trump’s home to look for classified documents at the request of the National Archives.

But the soon-to-be released emails will chronicle the specific concerns that DOJ under President Joe Biden had not met the standard for a search warrant, but proceeded anyway, officials said. (Read more: Just the News, 12/15/2025)  (Archive)

December 15, 2025 – Hillary Clinton’s own Russia scandal: FBI memos detail how Uranium One probe was thwarted

(Credit: Kelli R. Grant/Yahoo News, photos; AP/Getty Images)

Running out the clock: The FBI and DOJ slow-walked their investigation into the Clinton Foundation and the sale of Uranium One to Russia-backed interests. As a result of roadblocks, the statute of limitations was allowed to lapse on any prosecution.

Federal investigators believed there was significant evidence worth pursuing related to possible criminality involving the Clinton Foundation and the State Department’s approval of the sale of Uranium One to Russian state-owned interests, but delays by the Justice Department and FBI led the inquiry to whither and die because of statute of limitations issues.

The sale of the Canada-based Uranium One to the Russian state-owned Rosatom was the focus of great controversy and scrutiny from Republicans and others who argued that then-Secretary of State Clinton helped approve the deal and that the Clinton Foundation may have stood to benefit from it.

Career agents and line prosecutors at the FBI and DOJ also believed the saga may have been a criminal one, but orders from DOJ leaders such as then-Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates and then-FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe slow-walked and stonewalled the inquiry to the point where it could no longer be pursued.

FBI agents and DOJ prosecutors in Little Rock, Arkansas and elsewhere closely scrutinized the scandal — but were largely blocked from serious investigative action due to leadership delays and, following those delays, arguments that the statute of limitations had run out.

Jonathan Ross, then the First Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, argued in a 2018 email that “there is no legal barrier in continuing the present investigation” into the Clinton Foundation and Uranium One. Ross has served as U.S. Attorney in Arkansas since 2022, including during Trump’s second term.

Then-U.S. Attorney Cody Hiland of Arkansas also sent a 2018 email to then-U.S. Attorney John Huber of Utah, largely summarizing Ross’s arguments, stressing that “we do not believe the prosecution is time-barred by a statute of limitations” in part “because payments from the subjects of the investigation to the Foundation were made continuously from 2007 through 2014.”

A newly-declassified internal FBI investigative timeline also argued that claims that the statute of limitations had run out on the Uranium One inquiry “failed to include whether Acts of Concealment such as deleting emails in 2015 and making additional statements and representations about those deletions would have extended the statute of limitations” and also pointed to possible federal criminal statutes such as the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act, major fraud against the United States, and bank fraud.

The timeline also argued that 18 U.S. Code § 3287 — Wartime Suspension of Statute of Limitations Act — should have extended the statute of limitations for this alleged criminality as well.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, made the records produced to him by FBI Director Kash Patel and Attorney General Pam Bondi available to Just the News this past weekend. (Read more: Just the News, 12/15/2025)  (Archive)

December 16, 2025 – Labor Department sends strike team to investigate possible Minnesota unemployment insurance fraud

Minnesota governor Tim Walz (Credit: Julia Demaree Nikhinson/AP)

The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) is conducting a review of Minnesota’s Unemployment Insurance (UI) program in the wake of the recently-discovered fraud ring targeting the state’s welfare system, with Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer saying she is “appalled” at the abuse.

(…) The DOL has been launching investigations into UI fraud around the country, having already returned a staggering $520 million in “suspected fraudulent” pandemic-era UI payments to the state of Maryland.

In a letter sent to the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development on Monday, the DOL said it will conduct a targeted review onsite using a specialized UI strike team.

US Secretary of Labor Lori M. Chavez-DeRemer (Credit: Wikipedia)

“I am appalled at what we are hearing about potential fraud coming from numerous benefits programs in Minnesota. If there has been any related abuse of our UI systems, it will not be tolerated, and I trust our specialized strike team to get to the bottom of this and report their findings directly to me,” Chavez-DeRemer said in a statement. “Our mission to protect American workers remains unchanged, and I will not allow malicious actors to destroy the integrity of this trusted program.”

The secretary also spoke on the issue in a Monday interview on the Ruthless Podcast, calling out the lack of oversight from Congress of the UI funds.

“That’s a fund that people count on. It was established for a very distinct reason… if somebody loses their job — it’s a bridge to get them to the next job,” she said. “That’s a pretty understandable thing to have… But under COVID, under the CARES Act, we saw all of those dollars being printed and pumped into the system — which, of course, we’ll talk about, probably inflation at some point — but that being said, it has now been an organized criminal activity… Nobody paid attention. The oversight wasn’t there from Congress.”

Going on to highlight the rampant fraud in Democrat-controlled states, she specifically named Minnesota and Oregon as examples and stated that the DOL has already returned a whopping $1.4 billion to the U.S. Treasury.

“They asked for a lot of the waivers to continue these programs to offer more unemployment for a longer period of time,” Chavez-DeRemer said. “Now we’re seeing the fraudulent behavior, and we’ve recovered so many dollars… $1.4 billion we returned to the Treasury already… and that’s just from taking a little bit of a peek under the covers.”

“And now we saw the fraudulence come out of Minnesota,” she continued. “So today, we have sent a letter to the state to say we will send out one of our unemployment insurance strike teams to determine where else the fraudulent behavior [is] happening. Because the American people don’t deserve this.” (Read more: Breitbart News, 12/16/2025)  (Archive)

December 16, 2025 – Americans spend $150-$200 billion a year on salaries for Marxists college and university faculty members

Grok – Are most college and university faculty members left-leaning?

Answer: Yes, most college and university faculty members in the United States are left-leaning, according to multiple large-scale surveys and studies spanning decades. This skew has become more pronounced over time, particularly in humanities and social sciences, though it varies by institution type, discipline, and region.

Key Evidence from Surveys

  • The Higher Education Research Institute (HERI) at UCLA triennial faculty survey (ongoing since the 1980s) shows a clear trend:
    • In the late 1980s/early 1990s, about 40-50% of faculty identified as liberal or far-left, with conservatives around 20-25%.
    • By the 2016-2017 survey, 60% identified as liberal or far-left, while only 12% identified as conservative or far-right.
    • This represents a shift from a liberal plurality to a clear majority on the left.
  • A 2007 national study by Neil Gross and Solon Simmons (covering over 1,400 professors) found 44% liberal, 46% moderate, and 9% conservative. More recent analyses of similar data indicate the moderate category has shrunk as the leftward tilt grew.
  • Partisan registration studies often show even starker imbalances:
    • Ratios of Democrats to Republicans range from 6:1 nationally to 10-12:1 or higher at elite liberal arts colleges and in certain fields (e.g., over 50:1 in some humanities departments).
    • In top-tier institutions, some departments have zero registered Republicans.
  • Recent surveys (e.g., Chronicle of Higher Education faculty poll) confirm over 60% identify as liberal (including “very liberal”), with conservatives in the low single digits.

December 17, 2025 – Jack Smith testimony: Jan. 6 panel’s ‘star witness’ Cassidy Hutchinson provided ‘secondhand hearsay’ on Capitol riot

“At least one of the issues was a number of the things that she gave evidence on were secondhand hearsay,” the ex-Trump prosecutor testified, 12/17/2025. (Credit: AP)

The House Select January 6th Committee’s “star” Cassidy Hutchinson provided “second hearsay” about the 2021 Capitol riot and wasn’t considered as a witness in the election interference case brought against President Trump, according to former special counsel Jack Smith.

Smith told the House Judiciary Committee in a closed-door deposition on Dec. 17 that Hutchinson — who testified at the Jan. 6 select panel’s made-for-TV hearings in June 2022 — “certainly” wouldn’t have made a “powerful” witness because she couldn’t provide “firsthand” testimony.

“My recollection with Ms. Hutchinson, at least one of the issues was a number of the things that she gave evidence on were secondhand hearsay, were things that she had heard from other people,” the ex-Trump prosecutor testified to the Judiciary lawmakers and staff, the deposition’s transcript shows.

“As a result, that testimony may or may not be admissible, and it certainly wouldn’t be as powerful as firsthand testimony,” Smith said.

That included “sensational” allegations that the 45th president lunged toward the wheel of his Secret Service SUV, known as “the Beast,” in an attempt to commandeer it from his driver as a mob of his supporters were seeking to halt the certification of the 2020 election on Capitol Hill.

“I’m the f—ing president! Take me up to the Capitol now!” Trump allegedly screamed at the Secret Service agent, according to Hutchinson’s testimony in a live-broadcasted House hearing on June 28, 2022.

White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations Anthony Ornato, who by Hutchinson’s own admission relayed the startling incident to her, immediately claimed her account was false.

The agent and the driver of the vehicle also separately refuted Hutchinson’s testimony as well, with the president’s chauffeur telling committee members in a non-televised interview that Trump “never grabbed the steering wheel” or “lunge[d] to try to get into the front seat at all.”

But the Democrat-led House committee “hid the driver’s full testimony” and did not release the full transcript, according to Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.), who opened a probe into the select panel and Jan. 6 after the GOP retook the majority in 2023. (Read more: New York Post, 12/31/2025)  (Archive)

December 15, 2025 – The DC Court of Appeals ices Judge Boasberg’s attempt to hold contempt hearings

On December 8, 2025, Judge Boasberg scheduled evidentiary hearings for December 15 and 16, 2025, to hear testimony from:

Former DOJ attorney Erez Reuveni (a whistleblower who alleged superiors discussed ignoring court orders)

Current DOJ attorney Drew Ensign

The goal was to determine if officials (potentially including Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem) intentionally defied the order, paving the way for possible contempt referrals.

December 17, 2025 – CNN shaped public perception before and after the 2020 election steal

(…) Mike Benz lays out what he argues was a coordinated effort to shape public perception around the 2020 election well before a single vote was cast, and as always, at the center of everything is CNN.

The claim centers on a concept known as the “Red Mirage, Blue Shift,” the idea that the election would appear to favor Trump on election night, only to flip days later as mail-in ballots were counted. According to Benz, this outcome wasn’t just anticipated. It was actively planned for, normalized, and protected from scrutiny through coordinated media messaging and censorship efforts.

Wall Street Apes:

This is so insane

Mike Benz literally just proved CNN worked with Democrats to cover up the steal of the 2020 election

There was a plan called ‘Red Mirage Blue Shift event’

The 2020 election would appear Red on election night, but Democrats would win it the next day. CNN even wrote an entire article on their plan 2 MONTHS BEFORE the election happened, clearly indicating their involvement

“It gets back to their one chance for winning the election in 2020, which is what they called the Red Mirage Blue Shift event.

This is CNN, for example, September 1, 2020, month before the Whitmer fending, two months before the election, four months before January 6th, deciphering the Red Mirage and Blue Shift uncertainty surrounding the election results. (Shown in video)

This was what CISA and the censorship operation to censor the 2020 election was all about. It was to pre-censor anything that might question or quote, de-legitimize an upcoming miraculous come from behind victory the day after or In the days after, where it would be a red mirage, Trump would win on election night, but then it would shift blue and Biden would win. They knew that was Biden’s only path to victory,

It would look to all hell, (very obviously stolen to anyone with a brain) so they had to pre-censor five months before that happened, starting in June 2020.

Any criticism on social media, that’s why you got banned for questioning mass mail in ballots. Because high ranking government officials at the Department of Homeland Security teamed up with their outside blob mob, who are all career specialists in toppling governments, and know that the crux of it is perceptions I’m not sure I understand the question.”

Again, none of this is about blind acceptance. This is about honesty about what actually happened, who knew what, and why questioning obvious irregularities was treated as some moral crime.

If Benz is even partially right on this, then the story of 2020 isn’t just about sketchy ballots. It’s about narrative control and preemptively declaring “certain questions” were illegitimate before they could even be asked. And it’s about why so many Americans, across all political lines, still feel like they were never given straight answers.

While Benz focuses on how the narrative was managed once ballots started coming in, there’s another piece of the puzzle that explains why so much effort went into shaping public perception in the first place. Months before the election, a group calling itself the Transition Integrity Project was already gaming out what would happen if Trump didn’t immediately concede.

That might sound harmless enough. But it wasn’t.

The Transition Integrity Project was introduced as some bipartisan “war game” meant to protect precious democracy. But of course, all its scenarios pointed in one direction. A Trump victory, or even a contested result, was treated not as a “democratic” outcome but as a national crisis requiring mass mobilization, censorship, and a whole slew of other extraordinary measures.

Revolver:

The author of this book, conveniently titled “The Democracy Playbook” just happens to have also participated in the Transition Integrity Project.

Now that we are armed with the Color Revolution framework, and the specific role that electoral legitimacy plays in that model, we are in a strong position to evaluate the true agenda behind the Transition Integrity Project’s “War Game” scenario suggesting that Trump won’t concede the election.

Fani Willis’ behavior today was a disgrace — and it showed exactly why she fought so hard to dodge accountability. That’s why I led the Senate to create this committee and demand the truth.

She weaponized her office to attack President Trump and Georgia conservatives, burning MILLIONS in taxpayer dollars on a political hit job for headlines.

While our Attorney General and Secretary of State repeatedly failed to act, the Georgia Senate stepped up to demand answers and make sure this blatant abuse of power never happens again.

December 18, 2025 – The “Boring” U.S. Document That Just Crushed the British Empire’s Financial Grip — Panic in London, Screams from NATO, Chaos at MI6

(Credit: AMG News)

A quiet U.S. document just triggered panic in London. NATO generals and MI6 aren’t reacting to Russia—they’re terrified of losing control over America’s economy. Here’s what they don’t want you to read.

Editor’s Note [AMG News]: This report is based on verifiable government documents and public policy releases, but interprets their strategic significance through an America First lens. The real war isn’t with missiles — it’s over who writes the rules of the economy.

London in Panic: The Economic War Beneath the Shooting War

In the past weeks, the façade of international strategic rivalry has slipped, and the world has glimpsed the raw nerves behind global headlines. While mainstream coverage spotlights hypersonic missiles, troop deployments, and increasingly bellicose speeches from British and NATO leaders, the true crisis is unfolding not on the battlefield, but in boardrooms and policy documents. The real weapon shaking the British establishment is neither Russian armor nor American drones—it’s a PDF file quietly released in Washington: the Financial Stability Oversight Council’s 2025 annual report (FSOC). This dry publication marks a paradigm shift in international financial policy, threatening century-old systems of control and extraction.

Let’s dig deeper into what’s really driving London’s panic, and the forces challenging its empire.

Escalation or Distraction: Why the British Elite Fear Economic Reform

For centuries, the British Empire—repackaged as the “City of London,” “Davos,” or the “rules-based order”—has maintained its global power not just through literal warfare, but by shaping economies in its own interest. The current saber-rattling over Ukraine, complete with generals warning British families to prepare for war and MI6 heads pontificating on Russia’s “menace,” is more than geopolitical posturing. It’s a defensive reaction to a loss of financial control.

Strategic Shifts in U.S. Policy

Recently, two major documents surfaced in the U.S. governmental sphere: the new national security strategy and the 2025 FSOC report. Both mark a conscious departure from “imperial principles” and transatlantic, globalist models. Instead, they reassert a commitment to American sovereignty, people-first economics, and domestic growth.

The national security strategy affirms that sovereign nations—not transnational financial institutions—should dictate policy. The FSOC report proclaims that people and economic growth must come before financial entities and the old “casino” economy. In tandem, these documents delineate a new American approach: the age of prioritizing financiers is over.

Open British Alarm

British panic is far from subtle. Military and intelligence figures have taken to national television, urging readiness for war. Sky News cited the need for “sacrifice” from all citizens, signaling a wartime footing. MI6, too, issued warnings of operating “between peace and war,” presenting Russia as the existential threat and pledging enduring support for Ukraine. These statements, while couched in security concerns, serve another function: they keep public attention glued to external enemies, diverting scrutiny from internal economic anxieties.

Even Russia’s own foreign intelligence services have noticed, publicly asserting that the United Kingdom undermines peace efforts in Ukraine and pressures the EU to seize Russian assets, thus blocking a U.S.-led settlement. The lines are clear: Britain pushes war, the U.S.—at least in the Trump faction—pushes peace and seeks a negotiated solution recognizing Russian interests.

Behind the Curtain: The Economic War for Control

The True Stakes: Economic Sovereignty vs. Financial Empire

Why would the British establishment openly risk a conflict with a nuclear power? It’s neither ideology nor democracy that motivates these moves, but their imminent loss of an economic system that has, until now, privileged “financial parasites” over productive growth.

For decades, ensuring “financial stability” in the U.S. meant safeguarding the largest banks, bailing out Wall Street, and protecting derivatives markets—often at the direct expense of manufacturing, wages, and household income. The system was designed—and guarded—by powerful figures like Lord Peter Mandelson and Larry Summers, both with deep links to the City of London and implicated in notorious financial and political networks. They helped enshrine these priorities during the post-2008 crisis era, notably through Dodd-Frank reforms.

But with the release of the FSOC report, this paradigm has been upended. Treasury Secretary’s statements at the FSOC stressed the “twin priorities of economic growth and economic security,” explicitly guiding policy to benefit households and the real economy rather than speculators and mega-banks. The report also creates a “household resiliency working group,” aiming to prioritize actual people—families, workers—not just raw financial metrics.

This is revolutionary, especially considering the legacy of FSOC. Previously, its under-the-radar mission was to shield financier interests. Now, the institution itself is being used to shift power from global financial cartels back to ordinary Americans.

Phase One: The War Against Cartels

Along with strategic and financial documents, the Trump administration’s public-facing rhetoric has shifted. Vice President Vance, in recent addresses, has hit critical household pain points: food, healthcare, and housing. These domains, dominated by mega-conglomerates—Big Ag, Big Pharma, Big Finance—are the pillars of the old imperial system, where genuine economic activity is systemically sacrificed for financial extraction.

Battling Food Monopolies

The administration has initiated action against the beef cartels controlling the American food supply. As Peter Navarro explained, four massive conglomerates—many with foreign connections—control over 80% of U.S. beef. These entities underpay ranchers and overcharge consumers, a textbook colonial economic tactic. The new directives now treat food security as tantamount to national security, challenging monopolistic practices intended to extract wealth from American workers and families.

Tackling Big Pharma and Insurance

Healthcare is at the heart of financial extraction. Big Pharma and insurance companies, as Vance articulated, don’t generate health—they generate bills. Trump and his team, including RFK Jr., are openly confronting these entrenched interests, proposing that the billions currently funneled to insurers are routed directly to families, enabling them to buy tailored healthcare plans. This marks a dramatic break from decades of policy focused on maximizing profit for a tiny slice of the population.

Housing: Ending the Era of Institutional Landlords

Stable households cannot exist when hedge funds and asset managers like BlackRock purchase entire neighborhoods, turning Americans into renters. The FSOC report singles out the destabilizing impact of these acquisitions and calls for a pivot: real estate practices must promote household stability, not speculative returns or foreign investment.

The administration has directly compared the big home building companies to OPEC, challenging them to fulfill America’s housing needs rather than serve their own bottom lines.

Targeting the Most Dangerous Cartel: Narcotics Trafficking

The war against the narco-cartel is a strategic economic move, not just a crime-fighting exercise. By treating fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction, interdicting Venezuelan drug boats, and pursuing dirty money flows, the administration is striking at the financial core of the City of London system. Trillions in illicit dollars have fueled the old order; disrupting these flows isn’t just good policy, it’s existential for the empire.

A Revolutionary Realignment: People-First Economics

Real Impact for American Households

These aren’t just incremental policy shifts. They’re a wholesale reorientation of economic strategy. The pattern is clear: food, healthcare, housing, and even the illicit drug trade are all levers of control for the British system. Breaking up these cartels and empowering households signals the end of empire economics.

The FSOC report’s language is unequivocal. “Economic security requires the US financial system to reliably provide the resources necessary to enable the real economy to support domestic production capacity, American standard of living, and our core values.” The creation of a Household Resiliency Working Group, prioritizing people over financial entities, sets the tone for an era where domestic well-being trumps Wall Street interest.

And while it may seem “obvious” that government should prioritize the welfare of its citizens, history and precedent show how rare and revolutionary this step really is.

Challenging the Legacy of Dodd-Frank

The architects of the prior era—Lord Mandelson and Larry Summers—helped design Dodd-Frank as a bulwark for British-controlled offshore finance. With the FSOC report now being used to dismantle that model, the old guard faces a crisis of legitimacy and survival. The shift isn’t mere policy symbolism; it threatens their entire operating logic.

The Revival of the American Economic System

From Financial Extraction to Production

Trump’s economic strategy, partnering the FSOC reforms with the national security doctrine, marks a decisive move away from offshoring, financialization, and war-driven prosperity claims. Instead, it’s an embrace of productive capacity, domestic manufacturing, stable jobs, and empowered families.

This isn’t just about Ukraine or beef prices. It’s an ideological and practical break from the system that made endless wars and economic insecurity seem inevitable.

Blue-collar workers are seeing wage growth unmatched in six decades. Once-abandoned steel towns are reviving. The myths that offshoring is economically necessary, or that foreign wars fuel prosperity, are falling apart under the weight of empirical evidence and new policy design.

The bottom line for American workers and families: the era of economic hollowing and parasitic priorities is ending. What replaces it is a people-first, production-driven economy where nationhood and domestic growth are put ahead of abstract global markets.

The British Empire Faces Its Greatest Threat

Why Economic Reform Triggers Panic

With the loss of financial extraction privileges, the British establishment faces a strategic, existential threat. It isn’t hypersonic missiles or Russian battalions that have London panicked—it’s the end of their historic ability to extract value from American manufacturing, wages, and communities.

The 2025 FSOC report, and its wider economic context, is essentially America “declaring war” on old-world financial imperialism. It announces that Wall Street casinos are no longer the national priority, and that American production, security, and resilience are the new foundation. Coupled with the national security shift, it ends decades of subordination to imperial trade and financial doctrines.

Strategic Messaging and Narrative Control

It’s no coincidence that, as these transformations gain ground, British media and intelligence ramp up the narrative about impending war, sacrifice, and existential threat. It’s both a distraction and a last-ditch effort to justify the persistence of their system.

But as awareness grows, so does resistance. Workers, communities, and policymakers are seeing through the façade. The “economic war behind the shooting war” is now in plain view. (Read more: AMG News, 12/18/2025)  (Archive)

After a shooting last weekend at Brown University that left two dead and several others injured, questions are being asked about security lapses that led to those fatal moments.

A new bombshell claim has come out, and if true, it’s completely earth-shattering, not just for the school’s security personnel, but for the entire administration.

On Wednesday, footage of Fox News host Jesse Watters circulated on social media platform X, where the host of “Primetime” claimed leftist activist groups last summer demanded Brown disable their security cameras so pro-Palestine activists could act out with impunity.

“Over the summer, radical left human rights groups demanded Brown disable their security cameras so Palestinian activists could raise hell under the radar.

“Did they cave?

“We asked. No response.”

December 18, 2025 – DOJ sues four states including Georgia after SOS Brad Raffensperger sides with Democrats in failure to produce voter rolls

The Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division has launched federal lawsuits against four states, Georgia, Illinois, Wisconsin, and the District of Columbia, for refusing to turn over full, unredacted voter registration lists upon request, according to official DOJ filings and press statements.

This latest filing brings the total number of federal lawsuits against states over voter data to 22 nationwide.

The centerpiece of the legal offensive is Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger (R), who has inexplicably aligned with Democratic state officials and election bureaucrats in resisting federal efforts to access complete voter rolls ahead of the 2026 midterms.

DOJ attorneys filed their lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia after the materials provided by Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger’s office were incomplete and failed to include key data fields requested by federal officials, such as voters’ full names, dates of birth, residential addresses, state driver’s license numbers, or the last four digits of their Social Security numbers.

(…) According to DOJ, federal law is clear, the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) and the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) require states to maintain and preserve voter registration lists and make them available for inspection and analysis.Congress also granted the Attorney General enforcement authority under Title III of the Civil Rights Act of 1960 to demand such records.  (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 12/20/2025)  (Archive)

December 18, 2025 – Unseen photo reveals time Bill Clinton demanded Epstein and Maxwell join him at the Moroccan King’s wedding in 2002: ‘totally crazy’

The Post exclusively obtained a photo of former President Bill Clinton and his wedding guests in Morocco in 2002 — Chelsea Clinton, Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein. (Credit: New York Post)

“How many times in your life have you been invited as a guest of a guest at a wedding?”

The request was seen by members of Clinton’s own team as rude and has been a subject of discussion in Democratic circles for more than two decades.

The account is surfacing as Clinton downplays his ties to Epstein — and as the Justice Department faces a congressionally mandated Friday deadline to release files on the financier’s crimes, which were not publicly known at the time of the Moroccan king’s wedding.

A second source said the 42nd president’s staff “insisted” and “pushed” to bring Maxwell, currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for sex-trafficking conspiracy and other offenses, and Epstein, who died in jail in August 2019 while awaiting his own trial on federal sex-trafficking charges.    (Read more: New York Post, 12/18/2025)

December 18, 2025 – Soros DA ignores ICE detainer, releases El Salvadorian illegal who commits murder the next day

Marvin Morales-Ortez, 23, an illegal from El Salvador, was released from custody after the Fairfax County Commonwealth’s Attorney’s Office, led by Soros-backed Attorney Steve Descano, dropped a case against him for charges of allegedly brandishing a gun and assaulting and injuring someone.

Fox News’ Bill Melugin notes he was released back onto the streets after an ICE detainer was ignored.

The next day, it is alleged he is responsible for the murder of a man found dead in a home in Reston, Va., according to the Fairfax County Police Department.

Before the latest incident, Morales-Ortez already had a lengthy criminal record

WJLA News reports, “court records indicate that since 2020, Morales-Ortez had been charged with at least seven crimes in Fairfax County.” (Read more: WLJA News, 12/18/2025) 

NEW: ICE confirms that a murder suspect arrested for shooting & killing a man in Reston, VA yesterday is a Salvadoran illegal alien who had just been released from the Fairfax County, VA jail the day beforehand with ICE’s detainer request ignored.

23-year-old Marvin Morales-Ortez, a citizen of El Salvador, was arrested yesterday following a manhunt after a man was found shot & killed inside of a home in Reston, VA.

Morales-Ortez had been in Fairfax County jail while facing charges for brandishing a gun and assaulting & inuring someone, but he was released on Tuesday when the case was dropped. ICE says their detainer to transfer him to their custody was ignored by Fairfax County.

After his release on Tuesday, Fairfax County Police say that an emergency custody order was obtained for Morales-Ortez due to mental health/danger concerns. They looked for him to take him into custody, but they were unable to find him.

He is accused of committing the murder just hours later.

Morales has a prior rap sheet showing he’s been charged with at least seven crimes in Fairfax County since 2020.

ICE statement:

“On December 17th, Marvin Fernando Morales-Ortez, a criminal illegal alien from El Salvador with prior criminal charges for assaulting law enforcement/first responders allegedly gunned down a Virginia resident in Reston, Virginia. Fairfax County FAILED the victim by refusing to work with ICE and releasing this criminal alien onto Virginia streets instead of safely into ICE custody. If Fairfax County would have simply worked to uphold our nation’s laws, then this tragedy may have never happened.”

SANCTUARY CRISIS: Sheriff Stacey A. Kincaid of Fairfax County ignored an ICE detainer, released a criminal illegal alien, and a Virginia resident was murdered hours later in Reston. Sanctuary policies have real victims.

Marvin Morales-Ortez, 23, an illegal alien from El Salvador, is charged with killing a man in Reston after Fairfax County released him from jail. ICE says its detainer request was ignored. Morales-Ortez had prior charges for brandishing a firearm and assault and a rap sheet with at least seven cases since 2020. Police even sought an emergency custody order over safety concerns but failed to locate him before the killing.

“In a letter, Fairfax County Sheriff Stacey Ann Kincaid explained why she does not honor ICE detainers. She also signed a policy that went into effect this year that instructs her deputies to release inmates who are in the U.S. illegally to the street on their scheduled release date without notification to ICE.” (ABC7 News. August 28, 2024)

December 18, 2025 – Judge who helped illegal alien escape from ICE is convicted of felony obstruction

A federal jury Thursday convicted a Milwaukee judge who helped an illegal immigrant briefly evade capture by United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.

The jury’s verdict came after a four-day trial, in which Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan was convicted on the felony obstruction charge, but acquitted of a misdemeanor count of concealing an individual to prevent an arrest, according to CBS News. Federal Bureau of Investigation agents arrested Dugan in April on felony obstruction charges after she allegedly misdirected ICE agents seeking to arrest an illegal immigrant by escorting the illegal immigrant out through a back door.

ICE agents sought to apprehend the illegal immigrant, Eduardo Flores-Ruiz, after a hearing on a battery charge in front of Judge Dugan in April, the Associated Press reported. Flores-Ruiz was captured by the ICE agents following a foot chase.

Former Wisconsin state judge Hannah Dugan betrayed her oath and the people she served when she obstructed federal law enforcement during an immigration enforcement operation.

Today, a federal jury of her peers found her guilty and sent a clear message: the American people respect law and order. Nobody is above the law. This Department will not tolerate obstruction, will enforce federal immigration law, and will hold criminals to account – even those who wear robes.

Thank you to the men and women who keep us safe. We will always protect you.

December 19, 2025 – A Fulton County Superior Court judge clears way for Georgia State Election Board to obtain 2020 presidential election ballots and related records

ATLANTA – A Fulton County Superior Court judge has cleared the way for the Georgia State Election Board to obtain 2020 presidential election ballots and related records from Fulton County after the board reopened its investigation into the county’s election handling last year.

The court ruled the election board must cover the cost of obtaining the documents.

2020 election in Georgia still being probed

What we know:

As 2025 draws to a close, there is no end in sight to the prolonged legal challenges surrounding Fulton County’s 2020 presidential election.

Last year, the Republican-led Georgia Election Board reopened an investigation into Fulton County’s handling of the 2020 election.

On Friday, they scored a court victory.

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney’s decision grants the election board access to Fulton County’s 2020 ballots and related documents.

Fulton County chair: ‘every vote was counted’

What they’re saying:

Fulton County Chairman Robb Pitts responded to the court decision:

“This nonsense has to stop at some point,” Chairman Pitts told FOX 5. “I assured the public then, reassure the public today, those elections are open and fair and transparent, and every vote was counted.”

Pitts said the county will comply with the judge’s order. He is adamant Fulton taxpayers will not pay to produce the documents, at an estimated cost of about $400,000.

“It will be somebody else and not the taxpayers of Fulton County paying. When we get the check in, we will provide whatever documents they are looking for,” said Chairman Pitts.

December 19, 2025 – `Half of $18B in federal funds for Minnesota may have been defrauded

Half or more of the roughly $18 billion in federal funds that supported 14 Minnesota-run programs since 2018 may have been stolen a federal prosecutor said Thursday, describing the massive and multilayered fraud schemes as staggering.

First Assistant U.S. Attorney Joe Thompson said the scale of fraud puts services at risk for people who need them, including adults leaving addiction treatment centers who needed help finding a stable place to live and children with autism who were seeking one-on-one therapy.

While prosecutors typically see fraud manifest as providers overbilling, Thompson said during a news conference in Minneapolis that companies have been created to provide zero services while submitting claims to Medicaid and pocketing federal funds for international travel, luxury vehicles and lavish lifestyles.

“The magnitude cannot be overstated,” Thompson said. “What we see in Minnesota is not a handful of bad actors committing crimes. It’s staggering, industrial-scale fraud.”

The investigators’ new findings may bolster President Donald Trump in his claims that Minnesota is a “hub of fraudulent money laundering activity” under Gov. Tim Walz, who was the Democrats’ vice presidential nominee in last year’s election.

Trump has capitalized on the fraud cases to target the Somalia diaspora in Minnesota, which has the largest Somali population in the U.S. Eighty-two of the 92 defendants in the child nutrition, housing services and autism program schemes are Somali Americans, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for Minnesota.

December 19, 2025 – Fulton County: ‘We don’t dispute’ 315,000 votes lacking poll workers’ signatures were counted In 2020

Earlier this month, Fulton County admitted that approximately 315,000 early votes from the 2020 election were illegally certified but were nonetheless still included in the final results of that election.

The admission came during a Dec. 9 hearing before the Georgia State Election Board (SEB) stemming from a challenge filed by David Cross, a local election integrity activist. Cross filed a challenge with the SEB in March 2022. Cross alleged that Fulton County violated Georgia statute in the handling of advanced voting ahead of the November 2020 election, counting hundreds of thousands of votes even though polling workers failed to sign off on the vote tabulation “tapes” critical to the certification process.

And Fulton County admitted to it.

Ann Brumbaugh, attorney for the Fulton County Board of Registration and Elections, told the SEB in the hearing that while she has “not seen the tapes” herself, the county does “not dispute that the tapes were not signed.” Brumbaugh continued, “It was a violation of the rule. We, since 2020, again, we have new leadership and a new building and a new board and a new standard operating procedures. And since then the training has been enhanced. … But … we don’t dispute the allegation from the 2020 election.”

December 19, 2025 – DOJ releases the first batch of Epstein documents, pics, and videos due to Epstein Files Transparency Act

The Latest Epstein Files Dump And What We Actually Learned!

(Spoiler: Not Much New Dirt!)

📡 What We Know: The DOJ finally cracked open the vault, dropping over 13,000 files from the Jeffrey Epstein saga. Think flight logs, victim interviews, handwritten notes, even prison surveillance clips from his 2019 death. This partial release, mandated by the Epstein Files Transparency Act signed by President Trump last month, was supposed to hit a Dec. 19 deadline but arrived late and redacted to hell (protecting 1,200+ victims, they say). So, what fresh hell did we uncover? Not the explosive gotcha moments everyone hoped for. Most of this echoes prior leaks.
But here’s the gritty rundown:

• Epstein’s Creepy Operations Laid Bare: Graphic Palm Beach police interviews detail girls as young as 16 recruited for “massages” that turned into abuse, with Epstein allegedly pushing one to emancipate and become his “sex slave.” Handwritten notes scream sleaze: one demands a “bucket of roses” delivered to a high school girl at 8:30 AM; another flags his impotence issues. Oh, and scanned pages from Massage for Dummies? Peak predator playbook.

• FBI Fumbled Early Warnings: A 1996 complaint from artist Maria Farmer flagged Epstein’s obsession with “child pornography” and threats ignored for a decade. Plus, confirmation his 2008 plea deal was a sweetheart setup: 18 months for abusing dozens, served just 13.

• No New Smoking Guns on the Elite: Ties to power players? Yup, but nothing prosecutable. Flight logs revisit Clinton’s 2002-03 jaunts on the Lolita Express; Epstein donated $10K to his campaigns and schmoozed the White House. Trump’s name pops up sparingly—mostly old address book entries and a weird novelty check photo implying he “bought” a woman from Epstein (caption: “once in a blue moon”). Ghislaine Maxwell’s transcripts paint her as Epstein’s enabler, but she’s already doing 20 years.

Now, the pics, hundreds of them, many uncaptioned and undated, turning this into a twisted celebrity scrapbook. Bill Clinton dominates the frame, hands down the most prominent face across dozens of shots. We’re talking him lounging in a hot tub (with a blacked-out companion), splashing in a pool with Maxwell, arm-in-arm on a plane, hobnobbing with Epstein, and rubbing elbows with A-listers like Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, Mick Jagger, and Kevin Spacey. One standout: a bizarre painting of Clinton in a blue dress (nod to Monica?). No allegations against him, but the sheer volume screams “frequent flyer.”

Others get cameos, Prince Andrew sprawled over women at Sandringham, Epstein toasting with Walter Cronkite, Spacey chilling with Clinton. Trump? Mostly recycled shots with Melania and the crew.

Bottom line: This isn’t justice; it’s a redacted teaser trailer. More drops coming, but until we see the full unfiltered truth, Epstein’s web of influence stays half-buried. What do you think? Cover-up or just bureaucracy?

Department of Justice/Epstein Files, December 19, 2025

December 19, 2025 – New Epstein docs reveal his close friendship with Bill Clinton and other Democrats

For those asking why Trump had to play 5D chess with Epstein:

The Dems/MSM spent the last decade claiming Epstein was a conspiracy theory. They just blocked it out and ignored it.

The only way we could get them to care about this, was to dangle the Trump carrot in their face, and it worked brilliantly.

Could you imagine if in Trump’s first term he released all this stuff about Epstein? The public would not have believed it, and the Dems/MSM would have claimed it was all politically motivated and fabricated by Trump.

The only way this Epstein disclosure was going to work, was to get the public to beg for it. So that’s what Trump did.

You all do realize what happened right?

Trump baited the Dems/MSM into caring about Epstein via the Streisand Effect, and now they are trapped. They have been screaming about the Epstein files for months now, under the impression it leads to “getting” Trump. SURPRISE! It leads to Clinton and the Dems!

The Dems were successfully psyopped into demanding the release of the Epstein files. Trump weaponized their Trump derangement syndrome.

But most importantly, now the Dems will not be able to call it a conspiracy theory or claim it was politically motivated, because they are the ones who asked for this. We made them beg for it.

Congrats Libs. You have been duped. Trump warned us about Bill Clinton and Epstein all the way back in 2015. You didn’t listen. You claimed it was a conspiracy theory.

Scott Jennings puts it’s perfectly.

He calmly reminds the deranged Libs that the Epstein story is about Bill Clinton and the Dems, and it’s been that way for 15+ years.

Epstein was a Democrat donor, and directly assisted the Dems in trying to damage Trump. Epstein was literally feeding lines to Democrat politicians in the middle of congressional hearings via text. They had an Epstein group chat. Epstein was part of the Democrat elite.

This story has been about Clinton and the Dems the entire time. The Dems used to think so also, considering they called this a conspiracy theory for the last decade, until a few months ago.

If there was ever anything about Trump, it would have been released before he reached the bottom of the escalator in 2015, the Comey FBI would have leaked it, and the Dems would have brought it up at some point while Biden was in office.

But none of that happened. Why? Because Epstein leads to the Dems, and people like myself have been trying to warn the world about it for 10+ years. We were called conspiracy theorists. The Dems/MSM covered up this story for over a decade, and now they think they are all the sudden the experts on the subject? Adorable.

The Epstein operation is about MUCH more than just crimes against children.

Epstein had a well-documented fascination with eugenics, genetic engineering, population control, etc.

Here is Maxwell with Metabiota founder/CEO and Deep State virologist, Nathan Wolfe. Maxwell was a partner with Wolfe via the TerraMar project, which is also connected to the Clintons and the Clinton Foundation.

What is Nathan Wolfe known for? Searching for bat coronaviruses in Ukraine via USAID Project PREDICT, via his biolab company, Metabiota, which was funded via Rosemont Seneca, which is partially owned by Hunter Biden. Russia accused Wolfe and his biolab company of creating genome-specific biological weapons in Ukraine. This situation has been addressed by RFK Jr. and Tulsi multiple times, and has been a major topic at the UN for over 3 years now.

So Epstein had an interest in eugenics and he had financial/social connections to virologists who were making genome-specific biological weapons via USAID grants in Ukraine. Nathan Wolfe even directly thanked Epstein in his 2011 book “The Viral Storm: The Dawn of the New Pandemic Age” where Wolfe predicted the COVID pandemic 8 years before it happened…

So what am I getting at? I think Epstein had plans to engage in ethnic cleansing/population control/genocide via biological weapon, and I think he had something to do with Covid.

Epstein is at the epicenter of the Deep State empire. He was essentially a real life James Bond villain.

December 20, 2025 – Tulsi Gabbard: Deep State warmongers and their propaganda media are undermining Trump’s efforts to bring peace to Ukraine and EU

Deep State warmongers and their Propaganda Media are again trying to undermine President Trump’s efforts to bring peace to Ukraine—and indeed Europe—by falsely claiming that the ‘U.S. intelligence community’ agrees to and supports EU/NATO viewpoint that Russia’s aim is to invade/conquer Europe (in order to gin up support for their pro-war policies). The truth is that ‘US intelligence’ assesses that Russia does not even have the capability to conquer and occupy Ukraine, what to speak of ‘invading and occupying’ Europe.

No, this is a lie and propaganda @Reuters is willingly pushing on behalf of warmongers who want to undermine President Trump’s tireless efforts to end this bloody war that has resulted in more than a million casualties on both sides.

Dangerously, you are promoting this false narrative to block President Trump’s peace effort, and fomenting hysteria and fear among the people to get them to support the escalation of war, which is what NATO and the EU really want in order to pull the United States military directly into war with Russia.

The truth is the US intelligence community has briefed policymakers, including the Democrat HPSCI member quoted by Reuters, that US Intelligence assesses that Russia seeks to avoid a larger war with NATO. It also assesses that, as the last few years have shown, Russia’s battlefield performance indicates it does not currently have the capability to conquer and occupy all of Ukraine, let alone Europe.

PUTIN: RUSSIA HAS AGREED TO TRUMP’S PROPOSED TERMS, BALL NOW IN WEST’S COURT

“And in practical terms, we have agreed to the proposed terms by Trump.

That’s why what you are saying is incorrect and does not have any basis.

At our preliminary meetings in Moscow, they made some offers and they invited us to certain compromises.’

And with that in Anchorage, back in Anchorage, I said that this would be difficult decisions for us. But we agree to the compromises that are being proposed to us.

So it’s incorrect to say that we are refusing something.””So that’s completely incorrect.

So the ball is totally on the side of our Western opponents, of the head of the Kiev regime and its European sponsors.”

This is it. The key to Epstein: Bear Stearns put him on BCCI trades in 1979, when it made millions helping the CIA, Brits, Saudis & Israelis disguise covert cash by clearing $13 billion with BCCI, a CIA money laundering bank. Epstein simply developed that clientele & career niche. The rest is history.

A former top Democrat Party official in Virginia has been charged federally with the distribution of child pornography, according to newly unsealed court documents filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia

Randon Alexander Sprinkle, a former finance chairman of the Virginia Democratic Party and former treasurer for the Metro Richmond Area Young Democrats, is accused in a criminal complaint of possessing and distributing child sexual abuse material (CSAM), including videos involving infants and very young children.

The criminal complaint, obtained by National Review, was filed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and sworn out by an FBI special agent assigned to the Richmond Field Office’s Child Exploitation Task Force.

December 22, 2025 – Hillary tweets about CECOT and a documentary suggesting torture; El Salvador President Nayib Bukele responds

Madam Secretary Hillary Clinton,

If you are convinced that torture is taking place at CECOT, El Salvador is ready to cooperate fully.

We are willing to release our entire prison population (including all gang leaders and all those described as “political prisoners”) to any country willing to receive them.
The only condition is straightforward: it must be everyone.

This would also greatly assist journalists and your favorite NGOs, who would then have thousands of former inmates available for interviews, making it far easier to find additional voices critical of the Salvadoran government (or willing to confirm whatever conclusions are already expected).

Surely, if these testimonies reflect a systemic reality, a much larger pool of sources should only reinforce the claim, and many governments should be eager to offer protection.

Until then, we will continue prioritizing the human rights of the millions of Salvadorans who today live free from gang rule.

Respectfully,

Nayib Bukele

December 22, 2025 – Utah Trans convict who killed his parents converts to Islam

The case of a transgender murderer in Utah took another startling twist as convicted killer Mia Bailey told a judge he has converted to Islam behind bars and deserves the death penalty after he was sentenced to 25 years to life in prison.

The 30-year-old transgender man legally changed his name and sex in 2023, about a year before murdering his elderly parents Joseph and Gail Bailey, according to St. George News.

Convicted of the double murder in June of last year, Bailey had asked the judge not to appear at his Friday sentencing, saying that reliving the details of his crimes might result in a mental breakdown, according to numerous news reports.

The request denied, Bailey’s attorney Ryan Stout read a statement on his behalf, where the convicted killer revealed he had converted to Islam.

“Because of my religious beliefs as a Muslim, it would be appropriate to take my life for atonement for what I did,” his statement said.

(…) Brother Dustin Bailey also spoke during the sentencing, alleging his brother’s psychiatric providers committed malpractice during his transition.

“We support LGBTQ rights fully. This has nothing to do with identity,” Dustin Bailey told the Court. ”Providing powerful hormones to a person in a psychiatric crisis without proper psychiatric safeguards is not affirming care. It is reckless. In this case, it acted as an accelerant, intensifying instability, impairing judgment, and compounding risk.”

“That failure harmed Mia and it endangered our parents,” he said.

December 24, 2025 – U.S. sanctions Starmer-linked ‘radical activist’ NGO boss at center of censorship scandal against Breitbart

Five UK and Euro agents of the “global censorship-industrial complex” who “led organized efforts to coerce” the suppression of American viewpoints have been sanctioned by the U.S. government and are barred from entering the country, the State Department announced.

Imran Ahmed, a British citizen and the founder and CEO of the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH), the notorious censorship and deplatforming outfit which defined its central mission as “Kill Musk’s Twitter” and is closely linked to the inner circle of British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, has been sanctioned by the United States government.

The CCDH, a homologue of America’s Sleeping Giants censorship campaign group, proclaims its mission as thus: “We expose the producers and spreaders of hate and disinformation, and demonstrate the offline consequences.”

In 2020 the CCDH pressured Google to ban conservative publishers, including Breitbart, and in 2021 was at the centre of a Covid-era plot to smear Breitbart News and other publications in a bid to see them blacklisted from social media. A House Judiciary Committee investigation into the CCDH’s collusion with the Biden government and social media companies to censor the internet saw the NGO subpoenaed in 2023.

More recently, the CCDH has been revealed to have been a creation of the British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s Chief of Staff Morgan McSweeney, who is alleged to have organised a clandestine astroturf censorship campaign targeting political rivals and outlets like Breitbart News.

Under the terms of the order imposed by the U.S. State Department, CCDH CEO Ahmed is banned from entering the country, and can be deported if present. “Certain family members may also be covered by these restrictions”, the State Department added.

Addressing the CCDH, U.S. Undersecretary of State Sarah B Rogers said on Tuesday that the sanctions target “the censorship-NGO ecosystem” and said that Ahmed was a “key collaborator with the Biden Administration’s effort to weaponize the government against U.S. citizens.”

She said: “Ahmed’s group, Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH), created the infamous “disinformation dozen” report, which called for platforms to deplatform twelve American “anti-vaxxers”, including now-HHS Secretary [Kennedy].” (Read more: Breitbart News, 12/24/2025)  (Archive)

UPDATE  12/26/2025

In a Christmas Day ruling, Judge Vernon S. Broderick, of the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York, issued a temporary restraining order barring Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Attorney General Pam Bondi, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, and Under Secretary of State Sarah B. Rogers, among others, from detaining Imran Ahmed.

Ahmed, a British citizen of Afghan heritage, is a current resident of the United States on a Green Card. The former Labour Party advisor was among five Euro-area citizens to be sanctioned this week with visa bans and deportation orders by the State Department for their role in leading “organized efforts to coerce American platforms to censor, demonetize, and suppress American viewpoints they oppose.” (Breitbart News, 12/26/2025)

December 26, 2025 – Citizen journalist, Nick Shirley, exposes scale of Somali fraud in Minnesota

The number of mainstream news outlets who are doing investigative journalism on the ground in Minnesota to uncover the scale and scope of the Somali fraud rings are zero. However, one citizen journalist named Nick Shirley has put some extensive time into actually visiting the childcare centers at the heart of the scandal and his report is stunning.

In this 40-minute video, Shirley takes the time to search govt databases for grants, then goes and visits the actual businesses. Shirley confronts the fraudsters directly and has likely just put a big target on his back.

December 27, 2025 – Ilhan Omar’s husband scrubs his suddenly wealthy firm’s website – Archived copy of officers found

Omar and Mynett have seen their fortune skyrocket in the last year. (Credit: Congressional Black Caucus Foundation/Getty Images)

“Strange things” are happening around embattled Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., and her family’s soaring wealth.

The New York Post reported new details on Saturday, including claims that the venture capital firm owned by Omar’s husband, Tim Mynett, “quietly scrubbed key officer details — including former Obama officials — as scrutiny grows over the family’s skyrocketing wealth.” Omar’s wealth has come under scrutiny recently amid reports of fraud within the Somali community that occurred under the noses of all elected officials, including Governor Tim Walz. Many find it hard to believe that such a massive scheme went unnoticed by the political class and are looking to see if any official may have benefited from the corruption.

In 2022, Mynett created Rose Lake Capital, a capital investment firm, which saw a shocking wave of success in a short time.

“The company saw its reported value go from nearly zero in 2023, to between $5 million and $25 million in just a year, and somehow claims to having already amassed $60 billion assets under management,” the NY Post reported, noting that such a high number was “an amount many money managers on Wall Street only dream of.”

Paul Kamenar, counsel to the National Legal and Policy Center, believes that something fishy is happening.

“There’s a lot of strange things going on,” he said. “She was basically broke when she came into office and now she’s worth perhaps up to $30 million…she needs to come clean on these assets.”

Omar’s own financial disclosure indicated that the firm had less than $1,000 in assets in 2023, and such massive growth is mighty suspicious for a company whose business address “is a WeWork in DC, according to its LinkedIn page.”

In an instance of suspicious timing, the firm began removing “the names and bios of Rose Lake Capital’s nine officers and advisors” between the months of September and October. Coincidentally, this is around the time that prosecutors announced charges against eight people suspected of being involved in the fraud scheme, six of whom are of Somali descent.

Coincidentally, this is around the time that prosecutors announced charges against eight people suspected of being involved in the fraud scheme, six of whom are of Somali descent.

“These names include lobbyist and former Obama Ambassador to Bahrain Adam Ereli; former Senator and Obama Ambassador to China Max Baucus; DNC Finance Chair associate Alex Hoffman; former DNC treasurer William Derrough and former ex-CEO of Amalgamated Bank Keith Mestrich, who once described Amalgamated as ‘the institutional bank of the Democratic Party,’” the outlet reported.

December 28, 2025 – Harmeet Dhillon explains why the statute of limitations will not hinder DOJ prosecution of January 6 criminals

IMPORTANT DEFLECTION:

Harmeet Dhillon announced there will be no prosecutions for those behind J6 before the general statute of limitations runs.

Harmeet—one of the only productive members of the DOJ—apparently drew the short straw and was forced to defend Bondi again. In an announcement designed to deflect and defuse, Harmeet discussed why it doesn’t matter that nothing will happen to the J6 perpetrators by the 5th anniversary of their crime. She focused on statute of limitations nuances, correctly noting exceptions, but did so to preempt massive backlash from MAGA and We the People when the J6 anniversary passes with nothing from the Bondi DOJ.

No single issue motivated the MAGA base to vote for Donald Trump more than the promise of accountability and justice for the swamp. As the fifth anniversary nears, excuses are emerging.

The issue is not statute of limitations technicalities—it’s about justice. BTW, the Biden DOJ made about 725 J6 arrests in one year, with 87 sentenced and their lives destroyed.

How many criminals behind J6 has Bondi arrested, charged, or sentenced?

Ok.

* Stuff happens Jan 6 2021. This date is IRRELEVANT to prosecuting conspiracy or other wrongdoing re weaponazation (general 5 year statute)

* Jan 6 committee in Congress forms in the summer. This is a relevant date (SOL mid 2026 potentially)

* Jack Smith appointed over a year later as special counsel in November … statute runs on his obvious shenanigans late 2027

* Democrats in Congress and those in the states colluding with Biden WH hide their behavior, some of which STILLL HASN’T come to light! Statute runs on this five years after their concealed behavior is known to the government. This means the statute could run in the next administration.

December 29, 2025 – Latest FBI release of Covenant School manifesto files confirm trans killer bought guns with Pell grant money

Nashville school shooter Audrey Hale fired 152 rounds total (Credit: public domain)

The FBI on Monday released another 230 manifesto pages written by Audrey Elizabeth Hale, the biological female who identified as a transgender man on March 27, 2023, when the 28-year-old killed six at the Covenant School in Nashville, the Christian elementary school she once attended.

This latest journal appears to have been written sometime in late 2021, and includes lengthy sections about the weapons the killer planned to use to commit a mass shooting at a school sometime that year.

Following multiple pages full of weapons to purchase, the journal includes a page labeled “Account Savings Record,” which appears to reference the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). It also records multiple payments received from Nossi during the period when Hale attended the Nossi College of Art and Design in Nashville.

“FASFA [sic] grant checks started at $2,050.86,” wrote Hale at the top of the entry.

The page then lists a series of apparent ledger entries, starting with, “$2,656.87 (x3 checks from Nossi).” The next ledger entry states, “+$530.00 (x1 check Nossi) ($3,186.87).”

This reference to Hale’s federal student aid, located in the writings next to her entries about guns she considered buying, appears to corroborate the claims made by her parents to Metro Nashville Police Department (MNPD) detectives in 2023, when they told law enforcement their child purchased the firearms using federal Pell Grant money.

Hale’s parents told MNPD that the killer was only capable of taking two classes per semester at the college, requiring her to remain at the school until after she turned 25, when her parents’ income was no longer considered when determining what aid she would receive.

“Because she was 25, and because she’s still a matriculated student, she had to fill out financial aid forms, and when she became 25, she couldn’t use our income,” said Hale’s mother. “So then she had no income and so she got this grant money.”

Former MNPD Detective Bobby Samuels, who left the department and moved out of Tennessee in early 2024, then stated that the investigators were curious how Hale was able to afford the weapons used at the Covenant School, prompting her mother to credit the money received for her education.

December 29, 2025 – Pam Bondi responds to Minnesota fraud exposed by Nick Shirley

MINNESOTA FRAUD:

@NickShirleyyy’s work has helped show Americans the scale of fraud in Tim Walz’s Minnesota.

@TheJusticeDept has been investigating this for months. So far, we have charged 98 individuals – 85 of Somali descent – and more than 60 have been found guilty in court.

We have more prosecutions coming…BUCKLE UP, LAWMAKERS!

I am incredibly grateful to our U.S. Attorney Daniel Rosen and @DMNnews for their dedicated and ongoing work to uncover this fraud and build strong cases against its perpetrators.

Here are a few examples of the cases we have prosecuted with other federal partners like @SecScottBessent ⬇️

*

Scam 1: FEEDING OUR FUTURE — THE LARGEST COVID-19 FRAUD CASE CHARGED IN THE COUNTRY

– Claimed to serve children millions of free meals during COVID—few, if any, were ever fed
– Submitted fake invoices and fake rosters of kids purportedly receiving meals
– 78 defendants charged to date | 57 defendants convicted
– 72 of the defendants are of Somalian descent | 5 defendants are currently fugitives in Africa
– Millions of taxpayer dollars in fraud proceeds were sent overseas to East Africa and the Middle East
-Ultimate price tag? $300-400 million.

Scam 2: JUROR BRIBERY

Not unlike what you would see in the corrupt Somali judicial system, defendants in the Feeding Our Future case intimidated a cooperating defendant and attempted to bribe jurors

– 3 defendants delivered a bag containing $120,000 in cash to a juror’s house the night before closing arguments
– They promised more money if the juror voted to acquit all 7 trial defendants
– They offered this argument: “We are immigrants; they don’t respect or care about us”

Scam 3: AUTISM TREATMENT MEDICAID SCHEME

-Many defendants from the Feeding Our Future scam also set up fake “autism clinics”
-Parents in the Somali community reported their children diagnosed as autistic, brought them into daycares disguised as “clinics,” and received huge financial kickbacks
-The state government program underwriting this scam was supposed to cost $20 million.
Somehow, it ballooned to $200 million…at taxpayers’ expense

*
Scam 4: MEDICAID FRAUD

-Fraudsters identified Minnesota’s Medication coverage program for Housing Stabilization Services – a program meant to help people with disabilities, senior citizens, and people with mental illnesses
-Then, they started sham LLCs and began signing up drug addicts and others in halfway houses for services that were NEVER provided.
-The program was supposed to cost $2.6 million per year – it exploded to $125 million per year

December 29, 2025 – Children appear at Quality “Learing” Center; on same day, MN Children’s Commissioner claims daycare shut down last week

NEW: The Quality Learing Center in Minneapolis is now “trucking” in children after Nick Shirley’s viral video, according to the New York Post.

The Post reports that the parking lot at the infamous Quality Learing Center is now “bustling with kids.”

“We’ve never seen kids go in there until today. That parking lot is empty all the time, and I was under the impression that place is permanently closed,” a local said.

About 20 kids were seen “streaming in and out” of the center, according to the Post.

“You do realize there’s supposed to be 99 children here in this building, and there’s no one here?” Shirley said in his viral video.

The owner’s son, Ali Ibrahim, claims Shirley came before they opened and is blaming their graphic designer for messing up the sign.

“What I understand is [the owners] dealt with a graphic designer. He did it incorrectly. I guess they didn’t think it was a big issue,” Ibrahim said.

Video: New York Post.

NEW: Manager of the Quality Learing Center says there is no fraud going on as he stands in front of a sign that is spelled wrong.

The manager says the center has never closed once over the last 8 years & pointed to the busy parking lot as proof they were in business.

Bizarrely enough, MN Department of Children commissioner Tikki Brown claimed, within hours of this video’s production, that the Quality Learing Center closed down last week.

Video: rovingreporter / tt.

NEW: MN Department of Children commissioner Tikki Brown claims the Quality Learing Center closed down last week, which explains why there were no children when Nick Shirley visited.

Today, however, the Quality Learing Center was packed with kids.

The New York Post reports the children were “trucked” in, with one local saying it was the first time they had seen kids go into the building.

They need to coordinate next time before they try to cover up a crime.

This is from a 2018 Minnesota criminal prosecution against Somali daycare fraudsters.

In surveillance video, Somali parents would take their kids to the daycare, check them in, and then leave with them moments later.

The owners of the daycare would then bill the state for a full day of childcare– and give the parents kickback payments for being in on the fraud.

Somali fraudsters have been stealing from taxpayers for years and it’s clear that the entire Somali community is in on it.

December 29, 2025 – Judge rules Trump admin can share illegal migrant Medicaid data with ICE

A federal judge ruled Monday that the Trump administration can share Medicaid information pertaining to illegal migrants with Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers next month.

The ruling comes after 22 Democratic states sued to stop the government from sharing the information in July, which was granted while the case played out. The liberal states can still appeal the ruling.

District Judge Vince Chhabria (Credit: Wikipedia)

The order approved an agreement between the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and the Department of Homeland Security in July that allowed ICE officials to access the personal data of 79 million Medicaid enrollees, including home addresses, to track down the illegal migrants.

U.S. District Judge Vince Chhabria ruled that ICE officials can access six categories of “basic” personal information: Address, citizenship, immigration status, phone number, date of birth and Medicaid ID.

“The sharing of such information is clearly authorized by law and the agencies have adequately explained their decisions,” Chhabria wrote in the seven-page order. “Beyond the basic information discussed above, the policies are totally unclear and do not appear to be the product of a coherent decision-making process.”

December 29, 2025 – Obama’s Trojan Horse: How His Refugee Machine Engineered the Billion-Dollar Looting of the American Treasury

OBAMA’S BILLION-DOLLAR MINNESOTA FRAUD EMPIRE

The Heist You Paid For (THREAD)

Imagine waking up tomorrow to find your bank account empty. Every dollar you saved for your children’s tuition, your retirement, your security—gone. Now imagine looking out the window and seeing the thief driving a Porsche bought with your money, laughing as he waves a government-issued thank you note. This is not a hypothetical scenario. It is the reality of the American taxpayer in the wake of the single largest COVID-era fraud scheme in the nation’s history. While you were locked down, masked up, and worrying about the price of eggs, a sophisticated network of fraudsters in Minnesota was siphoning off a quarter of a billion dollars—likely far more—from programs meant to feed hungry children.

The “Feeding Our Future” scandal is not just a story about greed. It is the smoking gun of a much darker political operation. Federal prosecutors have charged 70 people in a $250 million conspiracy, and the FBI is reportedly eyeing fraud that could total over $2 billion across multiple sectors including autism therapy, housing, and daycare. The vast majority of these defendants come from the Somali community in Minnesota. But do not be distracted by the foot soldiers. To understand how a fraud of this magnitude happens, you have to look past the people cashing the checks and look at the architect who built the bank. This industrial-scale theft traces directly back to Barack Obama. It was his administration that deliberately flooded Minnesota with tens of thousands of refugees, creating a dependent, insular enclave primed for exploitation. It was his policy of “equity” that paralyzed oversight. And it is his political heirs who are now frantically trying to bury the evidence.

December 30, 2025 – HUD uncovers $ billions in ‘questionable’ Biden era rental assistance, including payments to noncitizens and dead people

WHAT HAPPENED: A report by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) revealed billions in taxpayer funds went to “questionable” rental assistance recipients, including deceased tenants and potential non-citizens.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: HUD, under the Biden government, distributed funds to non-federal entities; dead people and non-citizens were among recipients.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The recently released report covers funds distributed in all 50 states, with a particular focus on New York, California, and Washington, D.C.

💬KEY QUOTE: “A massive abuse of taxpayer dollars not only occurred under President Biden’s watch, but was effectively incentivized by his administration’s failure to implement strong financial controls,” said HUD Secretary Scott Turner.

🎯IMPACT: HUD is investigating and implementing measures to revoke or pause funding, with potential criminal referrals pending confirmation of fraud.

December 31, 2025 – A Somali-owned daycare reports a break-in claiming child enrollment and employee records were stolen

Nokomis Daycare Center, a Somali-owned facility in south Minneapolis, reported a break-in on December 30-31, 2025, claiming burglars stole sensitive records—including child enrollment documents, employee files, and checkbooks—amid intense scrutiny of alleged fraud in Minnesota’s childcare programs.

Manager Nasrulah Mohamed held a press conference on December 31, describing vandalism (e.g., a hole in the wall) and the theft as devastating, linking it to hateful threats sparked by a viral YouTube video from Nick Shirley alleging widespread fraud in Somali-run daycares. The center, licensed for up to 71 children, was not featured in Shirley’s video but reported receiving racist voicemails and threats afterward. Community advocates, including CAIR-MN, called it a hate-motivated act tied to online misinformation.

Minneapolis police confirmed vandalism and a break-in but initially reported no items stolen. Later updates referenced the daycare’s claims of missing documents, though some reports note inconsistencies, such as damage appearing to originate from inside. Social media and conservative outlets widely mocked the timing, suggesting it was a fabricated excuse to destroy evidence amid federal probes into billions in potential fraud across Minnesota human services programs. (Grok)

The man claiming to be the “owner” of Somali Nokomis Daycare is standing by his story, alleging the facility was broken into and that student enrollment files and employee records were stolen.

Minneapolis Police, however, say those claims don’t hold up. Investigators report no evidence of a break-in, no signs of forced entry, and no confirmation that anything was taken from the daycare.

Authorities say their findings directly contradict the owner’s account, adding to the growing scrutiny and unanswered questions surrounding the facility.

How stupid is this guy that he thinks the general public and the police are as dumb as the government officials who handled out the money?

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.”

(Credit: Zero Hedge)

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.

(Read more: Zero Hedge, 1/1/2016)  (Archive)

(…) 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).

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:

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.

January 6, 2026 – Trump’s New National Security Strategy a Civilizational Manifesto

(Credit: Robert Semonsen/Newsmax)

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 – 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.

WOAH 🚨 Nick Shirley exposes there are 1,200 medical transport companies in Minnesota. For a year, photos with timestamps were taken of the vans that are supposed to be used by these companies

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.”

January 11, 2026 – Minneapolis anti-ICE mob attacks Nick Sortor, Cam Higby in vehicle as they flee chaotic scene

Independent journalists Nick Sortor and Cam Higby are in Minneapolis to cover protests against immigration enforcement operations on Sunday.

BREAKING: These are the moments leading up to Minneapolis anti-ICE rioters SURROUNDING my vehicle, smashing my windows, and attempting to kiII
@CamHigby and me

I was forced to drive away to save our lives, repeatedly warning those standing in front to GET OUT OF THE WAY.

They didn’t listen, so I had no choice but to go anyway.

They then used vehicles to BLOCK US as we were running, forcing me to throw the truck off the road to go around them.

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)

House Oversight Chairman James Comer on Wednesday moved to hold the Clintons in contempt after Hillary Clinton was a no-show to her deposition.

Former President Bill Clinton was scheduled to appear for a closed-door deposition on Tuesday.

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

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.

Oh hell yeah, this is the political version of getting sold a “certified pre-owned” car and then the engine falls out in the parking lot, “we just want to make your life more affordable” turns into a full-blown tax buffet, soft-on-crime carnival, election-rules Jenga tower, and regulatory micromanagement Olympics within about five minutes of taking power, and anyone pretending this isn’t bait-and-switch politics is either lying or clinically allergic to spreadsheets, new delivery taxes, higher brackets, investment taxes, hotel taxes, equipment taxes, gun taxes, while also loosening criminal penalties and playing musical chairs with election rules like it’s a Vegas magic act, that’s not affordability, that’s fiscal waterboarding wrapped in progressive branding, and the election stuff alone should make any serious adult sit up straight, online voting, delayed ballots, ranked-choice expansion, banning hand counts, extending curing windows, joining the popular vote compact, that’s a whole buffet of “trust us bro” mechanisms that magically always favor the same people who wrote the rules, then you stack on gun restrictions, energy nanny rules, speech buffer zones, and sanctuary nonsense and you’ve basically copy-pasted the same urban governance experiment that keeps blowing up everywhere else, the real insult isn’t even the policies, it’s the dishonesty, don’t campaign as moderate pragmatists then govern like activist interns hopped up on ideology and donor pressure, voters aren’t stupid, they’re tired of being treated like goldfish with three-second memory, and if this is day-one energy in Virginia, buckle up, because the receipts are already writing themselves and the political hangover is gonna hit hard.

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.

Peter Schweizer’s The Invisible Coup: How American Elites and Foreign Powers Use Immigration as a Weapon is published by HarperCollins and is available to purchase now.

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)

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.”

January 24, 2026 – Kash Patel fires senior agents and directors at the FBI

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.

January 29, 2026 – Tulsi Gabbard releases documents that further proves it was Obama who led the Russiagate conspiracy and coup against Donald Trump

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 – 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.

The democratic socialist’s [Zohran Mamdani] mom, Mira Nair, attended a swanky afterparty at convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell’s house for her film “Amelia,” that was also attended by former President Bill Clinton and Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, according to an email sent by publicist Peggy Siegal to Epstein on Oct. 21, 2009.

“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.

> 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.

(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 3, 2026 – Clintons finalize agreement to testify in House Epstein probe, bowing to threat of contempt vote

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.

He says actual death “hits” have been placed on his life

Him and his mom have both been forced to move hotels because liberal activists find their locations and share it to their network

This is domestic terrorism

“Now I am getting a little bit more fearful for what’s happening in my life and what’s happening with the life of my family as you’ve seen not only attacks from like the mainstream media but more so attacks from just people on the internet saying outlandish things about you and your 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.”

Bill and Hillary Clinton agreed to testify before the Oversight Committee after Chairman James Comer moved forward with holding them in criminal contempt of Congress.

The Clintons will testify on February 26 and 27.

Clinton accused Comer of playing politics and said Epstein’s victims (presumably photographed with Bill Clinton) deserve justice.

Clinton accused Comer of using him as a “prop” in a closed-door “kangaroo court.”

Earlier this week, twice-failed presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton lashed out at Comer ahead of her testimony on Epstein.
