October 7, 2025 – Violent protest leads to multiple arrests and injured officers in downtown Boston

At about 5:30 PM on Tuesday, October 7, 2025, officers assigned to District A-1, the Citywide Bicycle Unit, Special Operations, and multiple units citywide responded to the Boston Common for the commencement of a rally.

At approximately 6:46 PM, while officers were responding to an unrelated emergency three blocks away, the protest group, estimated at 200 to 300 individuals, blocked Tremont Street near Winter Street, preventing police vehicles from passing. Many protesters, wearing facial coverings and gloves, interlocked arms, chanted over amplified bullhorns, and refused to clear the roadway.

When officers attempted to move the group to the sidewalk to allow emergency vehicles to pass, protesters surrounded police cruisers, kicked vehicle doors, and resisted dispersal efforts. Several officers were assaulted during this period, including one struck in the face. Protesters also ignited smoke devices and flares, further endangering officers and bystanders.

As violence escalated, additional police resources were deployed to the intersection of Tremont and Winter Streets, where protesters continued to resist dispersal. Officers engaged in crowd control to restore order and effect lawful arrests.

During the disturbance, officers reported equipment being forcibly removed or damaged, including body-worn cameras, radios, bicycles, and other duty gear. Despite these challenges, officers made numerous arrests of individuals engaged in unlawful assembly, violent resistance, and the obstruction of emergency response efforts.

Four officers were transported to area hospitals with non-life threatening injuries. No arrestees required medical attention.

The following individuals were placed under arrest and are expected to be arraigned in Boston Municipal Court:

  • Osama Khatib, 26, of Watertown charged with Resisting Arrest, Disorderly Conduct, Disturbing the Peace
  • Roder Atwood, 21, of Somerville charged with Disorderly Conduct, Resisting Arrest, Unlawful Assembly, Disturbing the Peace, Interfering with a Police Officer, Destruction of Property, Assault and Battery on a Police Officer, Assault and Battery Resulting in Serious Bodily Injury
  • Atalanta Carrig-Braun, 20, of Boston charged with Disorderly Conduct, Resisting Arrest, Disturbing the Peace
  • Haley MacIntyre, 24, of Dorchester charged with Disorderly Conduct, Resisting Arrest, Disturbing the Peace
  • Madeline Weikel, 27, of Watertown charged with Disorderly Conduct, Resisting Arrest, Disturbing the Peace
  • Jacob Pettigrew, 22, of Malden charged with Disorderly Conduct, Resisting Arrest, Disturbing the Peace
  • Amun Prophet, 25, of Allston charged with Disorderly Conduct, Resisting Arrest, Disturbing the Peace
  • Laith Hintzman, 19, of Boston charged with Disorderly Conduct, Resisting Arrest, Disturbing the Peace
  • Benjamin Choucroun, 20, of Medford charged with Disorderly Conduct, Resisting Arrest, Disturbing the Peace
  • Owen Woodcock, 26, of Boston charged with Disorderly Conduct, Resisting Arrest, Disturbing the Peace
  • Prahlad Iyengar, 25, of Boston charged with Disorderly Conduct, Resisting Arrest, Disturbing the Peace
  • Styx Hatch, 19, of Boston charged with Disorderly Conduct, Resisting Arrest, Disturbing the Peace
  • Gabrielle Smith, 28, of Cambridge charged with Disorderly Conduct, Resisting Arrest, Disturbing the Peace

October 8, 2025 – Eric Trump erupts on Chris Cuomo and drops truth bombs about the weaponization of government against his family

Chris Cuomo has an uncomfortable moment on-air as he sets Eric Trump OFF into a rage over his comments about Trump going after his political opponents.

This did not sit well with Eric, who blew up on Cuomo for nearly 3 minutes straight.

CUOMO: “Do you think that it is fair to say it looks like the administration is going after its political opponents now and doing exactly what you say you oppose?”

TRUMP: “What, Comey?… It certainly seemed like he lied to me. I’m also wondering what an FBI director is doing taking memos from the FBI and leaking them to The New York Times.”

That’s when Trump got personal, accusing Cuomo of playing coy even though his own family had also faced political lawfare.

Cuomo pushed back, insisting he wasn’t being coy… before accusing the Trump administration of going “right after Biden.”

Eric Trump then rattled off a series of examples to prove that his father is the victim, not the aggressor, in what can only be described as a mic-drop moment:

• “Did we raid Biden’s home?”

• “Did we try and bankrupt Biden?”

• “Did we weaponize every AG and DA against Biden?”

• “Did we do that against Hunter Biden, who had a laptop from hell, pictures of cocaine, illicit drug use, prostitution?”

• “Did we make up a dirty dossier about Biden?”

• “Did they try and destroy Biden’s marriage?”

• “Did we make up stories that Biden had secret servers in the basement of his home communicating with the Kremlin in Russia?”

• “Did we strip Biden off the ballot of multiple states?”

• “Did we take Biden off of Twitter and Instagram and Facebook and try and silence his voice so he couldn’t communicate?”

• “Did we put Biden in a courtroom every single day, 91 felony counts that have all been overturned for my father now for nonsense, to try and keep him off of a campaign trail and to try and destroy his life. DID WE DO ANY OF THAT?”

October 8, 2025 – James Comey pleads not guilty to federal charges

Former FBI Director James Comey pleaded not guilty in federal court on Oct. 8 to charges of making a false statement and obstructing a congressional proceeding.

Comey, 64, dressed in a dark suit and red tie, sat quietly at the defense table throughout the proceeding. His attorney, Patrick Fitzgerald, requested a jury trial.

The trial date is tentatively set for Jan. 5, 2026, although Fitzgerald said he intends to argue that the case is politically motivated and seek a dismissal.

The federal government was represented by Lindsey Halligan, U.S. attorney for the district of Eastern Virginia, who brought the indictment, accompanied by Gabriel Diaz and Nathaniel Lemons.

On arrival, Comey bypassed the public entrance to the Albert V. Bryan U.S. Courthouse, where a handful of protesters carried signs denouncing the charges as a weaponization of government.

Comey appeared before Judge Michael Nachmanoff, of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, a former public defender who was appointed by President Joe Biden in 2021. Nachmanoff was randomly assigned to the case.

Before releasing Comey on personal recognizance, Nachmanoff instructed attorneys for both sides to agree on a discovery schedule by Oct. 10 or else submit their proposed schedules by Oct. 13.

The judge instructed the Department of Justice to provide security clearances as necessary if any evidence in the trial is classified.

Initially, Comey was set to be arraigned on Oct. 9, but the hearing in Alexandria, Va., was moved to the morning of Oct. 8. Both charges stem from Comey’s Sept. 30, 2020, testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee. (Read more: Epoch Times, 10/8/2025)  (Archive)

October 8, 2025 – Highlights of Trump’s White House roundtable on Antifa violence

Trump hosted a White House roundtable discussion on Antifa violence—focusing on the anti-fascist movement’s alleged role in domestic unrest. The event took place in the State Dining Room and featured administration officials, conservative influencers, and independent journalists who shared personal accounts of confrontations with Antifa members.

Key Participants The event included a mix of high-level officials and media figures critical of Antifa:
Category
Participants
Administration Officials
– President Donald Trump (host) – Attorney General Pam Bondi – Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem – FBI Director Kash Patel – Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche – White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller – White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
Journalists & Influencers
– Andy Ngo (conservative journalist, known for covering Antifa in Portland) – Jack Posobiec (right-wing commentator) – Brandi Kruse (former reporter focused on Portland protests) – Nick Sortor (independent journalist recently arrested near an ICE facility in Portland) – Jonathan Choe (Seattle-based reporter)

(Grok)

During a press conference on Wednesday, President Trump said “the people that fund [antifa]. Probably some of the people I know, some of the people I dine with.”

Andy Ngo, an independent journalist for The Post Millennial, a Canadian conservative news site, spoke to President Donald Trump Wednesday during a roundtable about covering protests and Antifa.

Ngo described the times he has been attacked while covering protests.

“Thank you so much for acknowledging Antifa, and directing your administration to treat them as domestic terrorists. It’s going to be really challenging.”

During the meeting, independent journalists from the Pacific Northwest shared their encounters with Antifa while covering protests.

Brandi Kruse, an independent journalist based in Seattle who has developed a large following through her political Podcast unDivided with Brandi Kruse, urged the federal government to take action.

“So we want the federal government to take as many cases as possible,” Kruse said. “Look at the interstate travel between Portland and Seattle when it comes to these people committing violent acts. And hopefully in 3 and a half years they will be a shell of their former selves.”

…

Another Independent investigative journalist Katie Daviscourt also attended and recounted her experience of being injured during a protest at a Portland ICE facility.

“Black clad anarchist militants concealing their faces behind facial coverings have been assaulting reporters just for being able to cover their crimes,” Daviscourt said. “Today I am sitting here with a black eye and a concussion after being violently hit in the face with a pole while reporting outside the ICE facility just this past week.”

Seamus Bruner

During a White House roundtable on Wednesday, President Donald Trump met with independent journalists and researchers who’ve directly encountered Antifa’s violence.

Among the panelists was Seamus Bruner, research director at the Government Accountability Institute (GAI), who described the administration’s “whole-of-government” crackdown now underway.

“President Trump is taking it very seriously,” Bruner said. “This is not just a story about violence and chaos, as you alluded to, Mr. President. This is a money story. At the Government Accountability Institute, my colleague Peter Schweizer and I, along with our team, followed the money — and we followed it to the top of what we call the protest industrial complex: Riot, Inc.”

Bruner laid out shocking findings from GAI’s research, revealing that over $100 million has flowed through radical networks connected to Antifa and similar groups, including at least $4 million in U.S. taxpayer cash.

He noted that these networks bankroll bail funds and activist legal groups that help violent offenders return to the streets within hours of arrest, perpetuating an endless protest cycle in Democrat-run cities like Portland, Seattle, and Chicago.

GAI investigations, Bruner said, have uncovered patterns of paid transportation, coordinated logistics, and exploitation of homeless individuals, all tied to left-wing funding pipelines that stretch across states.

Perhaps most damning, Bruner revealed that U.S. taxpayer funds have been intertwined with these radical networks, either through grants to partner nonprofits or government-backed foundations.

He specifically cited the “Stop Cop City” riots in Atlanta, where more than 60 militants were charged with domestic terrorism, noting that several groups involved received money from the same pool of left-wing foundations and government grants.

Seamus Bruner:
“We found a network of NGOs. It’s not just the Soros network — the Open Society network — it’s other funding networks: the Arabella funding network, the Tides funding network, Neville Roy Singham and his network, and foreign cash. It’s also big left-wing funders. Some of them are not even citizens of this country — Mr. Hansjörg Wyss of Switzerland.

They’re pouring money into this entire ecosystem. So I want to share three money facts with you about what we call Riot, Inc.
Number one: like any corporation, Riot, Inc. has many divisions.

It doesn’t just have the Antifa “boots-on-the-ground” division — it has PR divisions, marketing divisions, and a very well-funded legal division to get these “boots on the ground” back on the streets as quickly as possible.

But it does have those investors that I mentioned.

Number two: we have identified dozens of radical organizations — not just the decentralized Antifa groups — but dozens of radical organizations that have received more than $100 million from the Riot, Inc. investors. These would be the lawyer groups, the advocacy groups that label good, honest Americans as “fascists,” etc.

And then, number three — I think the most shocking thing — we found that more than $100 million in U.S. taxpayer funding has flowed into these funding networks, including at least $4 million directly to these groups themselves.

Not just Antifa types. There was an event in Atlanta called “Stop Cop City.” Over 60 rioters were charged with domestic terrorism. These groups received money for that — from both the billionaire class and taxpayer funds.

One other thing — this money also helps fund decentralized crowdfunding platforms. These are the ways Antifa, the John Brown Gun Club of Elm Fork (which had links to the attack on the ICE facility), and the Socialist Rifle Association receive money.

And just because they don’t have LLCs or EIN numbers doesn’t mean they can’t get paid. Some of these crowdfunding platforms are funded by this network we call Riot, Inc.

So again, I want to thank you for your leadership — for the whole Cabinet’s leadership on this. We’re going to keep following the money and appreciate everything you’re doing, sir.”

Elon Musk chimed in, blasting the report and declaring, “It’s way more than $100 million in U.S. taxpayer money.”

October 7, 2025 – Obama’s Spies & Lies: The Junk Intel Scandal – Declassified

People in Washington DC are starting to realize the full scale of the Obama surveillance system. All of the evidence and datapoints, those released and those yet to surface, flow in one direction. Even the professionally reluctant are starting to admit.

What Obama, Biden, Comey, Crossfire Hurricane, Robert Mueller, Arctic Frost and Jack Smith were doing, was using their offices -and govt systems- to watch their opposition, spy on them, then take action based on the results.

Friend of the Treehouse John Spiropoulos has put together a series of videos explaining how President Obama, FBI Director James Comey and CIA Director John Brennan constructed a coverup to hide their political surveillance operation. Today, the fourth segment in the series.

Rumble Link – YouTube Link

From the perspective of Obama, Comey and Brennan, expanding Hillary Clinton’s Trump-Russia collusion narrative was the key element to hide the activity of the administration prior to the November 2016 election.  That’s the motive for the FBI and CIA to collaborate on the agenda after the shocking outcome of the 2016 election result; but pay close attention to the activity of the primary “at risk” official, James Comey.

The December ‘16  Joint Analysis Report (JAR), and the January ’17 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA), were fabricated to enhance a spying coverup. Spiropoulos has taken the time to put the deconstruction of the ICA into a simple to follow video format.

From a risk management perspective, initially the surveillance and spying operation was a low-risk endeavor. Obama held power and was going to hand off operations to Hillary. The Clinton administration would retain the officials who were doing the surveillance/spying, and no one would ever know.

Donald Trump was not expected to win the election. When he did, all of the participants were suddenly at risk. President Obama and every member of his cabinet involved in the spying operations, then used Clinton’s “Russiagate” smear to cover up Obama’s “Spygate” activity.

The IRS was used to identify targets 2010 through 2012, until discovered in April ’12.  Suddenly, President Obama has a problem. President Obama then sends his Chief of Staff, Jack Lew, to run the IRS and block discoveries around the IRS weaponization.

From 2012 through April 2016, the Obama administration was spying on their political opposition using the FBI to conduct surveillance through their access to the NSA database.

In April 2016, NSA Admiral Mike Rogers was alerted by the NSA compliance officer who noted the uptick in database access activity by the FBI searching the Republican primary candidate field.

Post April 2016, the Obama administration had a problem. Enter FBI operation “Crossfire Hurricane,” July 2016, in an effort to remove the political risk.

October 2016, the FBI rushes a FISA application through the FISC, circumventing the missing ‘Woods File’, with the Chris Steele dossier as evidence.

October 2016, NSA Director Rogers sends the first official notification of the FBI using the NSA database to the oversight body, the FISA Court.

December 2016, worried about Trump now discovering the NSA database spying, the Obama administration wraps the Clinton smear into official policy, blaming the Russians and validating Crossfire Hurricane. That’s where the Intelligence Community Assessment becomes critical.

May 2017, needing to extend the coverup of the FBI activity, special counsel Robert Mueller then takes over Crossfire Hurricane. All FBI evidence and personnel transfers to Mueller.

April 2019, Robert Mueller operation wraps up, prior activity coverup shifts to Impeachment process.

July 2019, John Durham kicks in extending DOJ/FBI control through 2020 election.

Fall 2020, mail-in ballots triggered to facilitate 2020 election outcome.

January 2021, FBI triggers Operation Arctic Frost, targeting Trump supporters and 2020 election researchers. FBI again using NSA database search queries to identify targeting.

March 2021, FBI Arctic Frost results fed to J6 Committee and DHS. TSA trigger “Quiet Skies” targeting via results from Arctic Frost.

August 2022, FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago to retrieve any evidence Donald Trump might have of FBI spying and surveillance activity.

September 2023, Jack Smith targets congressional members who had contact with President Trump.

It’s one long continuum of coverup activity within Main Justice and the FBI, supported by all other various agencies who operate in support. What are they covering up? The 2012 through 2016 political spying operation within the Obama administration, as carried out by the same Main Justice and FBI operations.

“We learned that the Chicago city streets have 110,000 gang members. That’s right. You heard me right. They had 1,200 shootings this year alone, 360 homicides.”

“When politicians choose to side with those metrics and not their citizenry, thank God we have President Trump and this Department of Justice and this FBI going in there and crushing violent crime.”

“And President Trump sent us into these cities quietly to set the stage, to set up for the National Guard, to see the success that we saw in Washington, D.C., in Memphis.”

“The agents at the FBI know that they have the backing of the American people and their government.”

October 8, 2025 – Trump calls for Brandon Johnson and JB Pritzker to be jailed

As The Gateway Pundit reported, federal officers from CBP and ICE were recently ambushed by a convoy of roughly ten vehicles in what officials described as a “coordinated assault” by domestic extremists against law enforcement.

Chicago police, however, were explicitly ordered to stand down and ignore the distress calls from federal agents.

“The governor knew about it, the mayor knew about it,” Trump told reporters on Wednesday, while suggesting criminality.

Trump called for Brandon Johnson and JB Pritzker to be jailed on Truth Social this morning, stating, “Chicago Mayor should be in jail for failing to protect Ice Officers! Governor Pritzker also!“

When questioned on whether he has asked the Justice Department to look into charging the disgraced mayor and governor, Trump did not say, but he did describe the move to have police stand down as “illegal.”

Trump passed the question to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, who said the elected officials in Illinois “should absolutely be prosecuted.”

Noem further revealed that police in Portland were witnessed by ICE officers “cheering” with “fists in the air” for Antifa terrorists that were calling for the murder of ICE officers. “Those kind of individuals who are perpetuating murder should absolutely be prosecuted, in my opinion,” she said.

‘Hoisted On Her Own Petard’: Gregg Jarrett Breaks Down How Letitia James Incriminated Herself

October 09, 2025 – MSM interview covers up Ukrainian fighter’s swastika tattoo

In another embarrassing and revealing moment for Western mainstream media and its many puff pieces on Ukraine’s neo-Nazi Azov Regiment, Canadian national broadcaster CBC has aired a news report this week from “an elite training facility” of its 3rd Assault Brigade in Kiev, featuring a fighter with a swastika tattoo on his arm.

The footage, released Thursday, blurred out the swastika tattoo of one of the main military trainers interviewed, but failed to do so in the video’s YouTube thumbnail. Comments were turned off, with a note attached in the YouTube description which reads: “A tattoo of an offensive symbol has been blurred in this video.” Watch (officer with tattoo starts at :16 mark)

It was in June 2024 that the US State Department first announced that it had lifted its longtime ban on giving weapons and training to Ukraine’s notorious Azov Brigade (often referenced by its earlier name Azov Battalion).

Since then, efforts to normalize Azov—which mainstream media had long ago grudgingly admitted was full of “neo-Nazi ideology”—have only grown.

The group’s members have never been shy about sporting Nazi-inspired tattoos and patches. Ultimately, they haven’t changed, only their Western supporters’ perceptions of them have.

The blurred out tattoo in question from the CBC footage:

 

Ukrainian scholar and historian, Dr. Marta Havryshko has on many occasions slammed Western media attempts to whitewash the extremist militia group. For example she once wrote:

“Azov changed” – the mantra of many liberal and progressive public in the West, who, after 24 Feb. 2022, demonstrate sympathy toward the Azov movement, whitewashing its past, justifying its present, and showing no concerns about its future.

Just this month, Ukraine’s President Zelensky promoted Azov’s founder, Andriy Biletsky, to the rank of Brigadier General, amid these efforts to downplay or cover up the group’s clear neo-Nazi ideology. (Read more: Zero Hedge, 10/11/2025)  (Archive)

October 9, 2025 – Former FBI Director Chris Wray under federal investigation

Christopher Wray (Credit: Andrew Harnik/The Associated Press)

(…) In August, the Oversight Project criminally referred Christopher Wray to the Department of Justice, citing false statements to Congress and obstruction of official proceedings.

The referral detailed two key incidents:

  1. The FBI’s anti-Catholic “Richmond memo” scandal.
  2. The FBI’s obstruction of an investigation into a Chinese mail-in voting scam allegedly linked to the 2020 election.

According to whistleblowers and declassified documents released by Sen. Chuck Grassley, the FBI blocked an investigation into claims that the Chinese Communist Party manufactured thousands of fake driver’s licenses and shipped them to the U.S. to facilitate fraudulent mail-in voting operations benefiting Joe Biden.

Wray lied under oath about both scandals, the mail-in voting cover-up and the Richmond memo.

The Richmond memo, exposed by whistleblower Kyle Seraphin, revealed that the FBI had targeted Traditional Catholics as potential domestic terrorists and discussed using priests and parish staff as “tripwires” to spy on religious communities.

Wray later called the memo “appalling” and claimed it was “immediately retracted,” a statement that congressional investigators have since proven false.

In yet another damning revelation, the FBI recently admitted that 274 plainclothes agents were embedded in the crowds during the events of January 6, 2021, hundreds more than previously disclosed.

This directly contradicts Wray’s sworn testimony before Congress, where he denied extensive FBI presence in the Capitol protest. (Read more: Gateway Pundit, 10/09/2025)  (Archive)

October 10, 2025 – Chicago residents welcome border patrol in contrast to leftist anti-ICE radicals

A video posted on social media shows Chicago residents warmly greeting U.S. Border Patrol agents who are deployed to help Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers rounding up criminal aliens. The welcome stands in sharp contrast to the actions by organized anti-ICE radicals.

A CBP video crew followed Border Patrol’s Commander Op at Large, Chief Patrol Agent Gregory K. Bovino, as he walked around various businesses in the Windy City. The business managers and customers warmly greeted the chief with handshakes, warm smiles, and fist bumps.

The residents appeared to endorse the Border Patrol’s mission in support of President Donald Trump’s Operation Midway Blitz. Federal law enforcement officials have arrested hundreds of violent criminal aliens since the Chicago operation began.

Of these was a Guatemalan illegal alien who Chief Bovino describes as a “child rapist.”

Another is described as a Mexican national with nine previous felony and misdemeanor arrests. One of these included an incident that made national news when he allegedly posed as a rideshare driver and sexually assaulted a Chicago woman after she left a nightclub. Sanctuary City policies in Chicago led to his release from detention two days after his arrest, Bovino reported.

Why are we in the greater Chicago area?

To arrest bad people and bad things.

Exhibit A: Illegal alien from Mexico arrested by Office of Field Operations Operation Midway Blitz…

In addition to 9 previous arrests (including felony and misdemeanor convictions), his most recent arrest made national news, when on March 30, 2025, he allegedly posed as a rideshare driver in Chicago, IL and sexually assaulted a woman inside his vehicle after picking her up outside a local nightclub. He was charged with aggravated criminal sexual assault, aggravated kidnapping with bodily harm, and unlawful restraint. He was released from detention two days after his arrest.

With a lengthy and violent criminal record dating back to 2002, why has he been living free as a bird in the Windy City? Because of Chicago’s embrace of sanctuary policies, which hurt rather than help its residents. But no more. Operation Midway Blitz is here to rid Chicago of criminal illegal aliens like him.

October 11, 2025 – Dem Minn AG Keith Ellison claims nobody knows what Antifa is after promoting their handbook in 2018

Democrat Attorney General over the state of Minnesota, Keith Ellison, claimed that “nobody knows” what Antifa is when he was on MSNBC for a media hit. He posted himself holding the book, “Antifa, The Anti-Fascist Handbook,” in 2018.

The book, by Mark Bray, who recently fled the country after President Donald Trump declared Antifa to be a domestic terror group, was posted in a picture by Ellison in 2018, according to reports at the time.

While he appeared on MSNBC, Ellison was discussing Antifa when he said, “If there really is no Antifa as an institution organization, then anybody who’s associated with Antifa-like ideas, you know, can be persecuted. All you have to do is say, ‘Prove you’re not Antifa.’ Well, how can you prove a negative, and suddenly they’re just going to be able to use that to justify suppressing speech, arresting people, deploying ICE, deploying the National Guard, deploying the military.

“So the fact is that nobody even knows what it is. The first person I ever heard use the word Antifa was Donald J Trump when he was going on about how there were good people on both sides of Charlottesville, that’s the first time I ever heard anyone use the term. So now it’s amorphous thing. And if nobody’s really Antifa, then everybody could be.”

According to the Washington Examiner, half the funds that the book Ellison was holding in 2018 written by Bray are “funneled to the funding arm of Antifa International, which financially supports hundreds of affiliates around the world, including accredited antifa chapters in America, such as Atlanta Antifascists and the Central Oregon Anti-Fascist Action.”

Additionally, in 2020, Keith Ellison’s son, Jeremiah Ellison, publicly declared that he supported Antifa. “I hereby, officially, declare my support for ANTIFA,” the AG’s son said at the time. (Read more: The Post Millennial, 10/11/2025) (Archive)

Ashley Tellis, an expert on India and South Asian affairs, removed the top secret documents from secure locations and met with Chinese officials.

The classified documents were located in Tellis’s Virginia home during a raid.

“On Sept. 25, he allegedly printed U.S. Air Force documents concerning military aircraft capabilities. Federal prosecutors allege that he met with Chinese government officials multiple times over the past several years,” Fox News reported.

Prosecutors said in September 2022 that Tellis brought a manila envelope with him when he met with Chinese officials in a Virginia restaurant.

Fox News reported:

A State Department employee is accused of removing classified documents from secure locations and meeting with Chinese officials dating back to 2023.

The Justice Department said Ashley Tellis was an unpaid senior adviser to the State Department and also a contractor with the Office of Net Assessment at the Department of Defense, recently renamed the Department of War. He is considered a subject-matter expert on India and South Asian affairs in his role at the Office of Net Assessment.

Tellis began working for the State Department in 2001, court documents state. He is accused of unlawful retention of national defense information, according to an affidavit.

He held a top-secret clearance and had access to sensitive information, federal prosecutors said in court documents. He was also employed as a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.

The cache was offered to the bureau on the eve of the 2024 presidential election as evidence without requiring a warrant, according to an FBI document memorializing the offer that was reviewed by Just the News.

The memo says Kinzinger told the FBI that the phone data had been collected by then-former Rep. Denver Riggleman, an ex-Republican who was a staffer on the Capitol riot committee and who later helped Hunter Biden’s legal team in its efforts to cast doubt on the laptop belonging to Joe Biden’s son.

Congressional powers used to conduct lawfare against Trump

The FBI memo does not reveal whether the bureau ever took Kinzinger up on his offer, but it does reveal the sheer magnitude of a phone surveillance project the Democrats ran by using congressional subpoenas to gather phone records about Americans’ contacts with the Trump White House.

Kinzinger told the FBI that the J6 committee “collected and linked a substantial amount of telephone data, and noted the FBI may already possess such data. While former congressman Denver Riggleman worked with the Select Committee he (Riggleman) had a contact and was able to obtain toll information including for White House root or switchboard numbers via congressional subpoena,” the FBI agents wrote in their memo summarizing the offer.

“Kinzinger noted that he (Kinzinger) did not conduct the analysis himself but that Riggleman had identified certain telephone connections between numbers identified as being associated with the White House and certain individuals,” the memo continued.

(…) The newly-released memo on Kinzinger and Riggleman was recently uncovered by current FBI Director Kash Patel and has garnered significant attention inside the bureau because of the timing of the contact between the agents and the former lawmaker in December 2023.

By that time, Kinzinger had already left Congress and the committee he worked for had ended its probe a year earlier. But the 2024 presidential election between Donald Trump and Joe Biden was heating up with the first presidential primaries just weeks away from starting.

Agents noted that Kinzinger seemed eager to help the FBI at that moment and that Congress had not figured out what to do with the massive collection of data.

“Kinzinger indicated that Riggleman may have never received direction on what to do with the toll data, which included approximately 30 million lines of data,” the FBI memo stated. “Kinzinger believed it was in an electronic format but did not know if it was the original subpoena returns.”

The agent who interviewed him said “that she would contact Kinzinger if any additional information was requested,” the memo stated.

Kinzinger did not immediately respond to a request for comment sent to him through the speaker’s bureau contact listed on his personal website. Riggleman did not immediately respond to a request for comment sent to him through his LinkedIn page.

October 15, 2025 – ICE arrests illegal alien in Illinois serving as a police officer

Radule Bojovic

Officer Radule Bojovic, from the Hanover Park Police Department, was detained by ICE after it was discovered that his B-2 tourist visa expired in March 2015. He had remained in the U.S. irregularly for more than a decade.

Bojovic, originally from Montenegro, was hired in January 2025 and had a valid work authorization issued by USCIS, which caused confusion about his legal status.

The police department assured that it had verified his background with the FBI and the Illinois State Police, without finding any criminal records.

ICE detained him during a targeted operation in the Chicago area. According to federal law, possessing a firearm as an undocumented immigrant constitutes a serious crime.

The case has sparked a debate about immigration and hiring controls within the country’s police forces.

(Auto-translated from Spanish by Grok)

@GovPritzker doesn’t just allow illegal aliens to terrorize Illinois’s communities, he allows them to work as sworn police officers.

Radule Bojovic overstayed a B2 tourist visa that required him to depart the U.S. on March 31, 2015. Over a decade later, he was still illegally in the U.S. working as a police officer for the Hanover Park Police Department earning a salary of $78,955.

Criminal illegal aliens have NO PLACE in our communities, especially on our police forces.

***

Sanctuary states like Illinois under Pritzker are a national security nightmare. An illegal alien working as a sworn officer with a taxpayer-funded pension and gun isn’t just a policy failure—it’s a felony enabled by reckless governance. Operation Midway Blitz proves ICE is finally cleaning up this mess, targeting criminal violators who’ve exploited weak leadership.

Every dollar paid to Bojovic’s $78K salary represents stolen taxpayer money funding lawlessness. Sanctuary policies don’t protect communities—they arm foreign nationals against citizens while D.C. elites lecture us about “compassion.”

Deportation isn’t optional—it’s survival.

October 16, 2025 – After a decade of corruption and election fundraising crimes, Stacey Abrams’ nonprofit ‘New Georgia Project’ shuts down

“We are proud of the milestones we have achieved, the communities we have engaged and the countless individuals whose lives have been strengthened by our work,” the Board of Directors wrote in a statement.

Earlier this year, the Georgia Senate launched an investigation into Stacey Abrams and her nonprofit, The New Georgia Project, for illegal fundraising activity.

“Abrams and the New Georgia Project, from which she is no longer affiliated, are being investigated by the same Senate panel that has been examining Fulton County DA Fani Willis’ historic indictment of Donald Trump during the time he was out of the Oval Office,” Atlanta News First reported.

“The Senate committee will focus on alleged campaign finance violations and possibly the recent New Georgia Project firings allegedly tied to efforts to unionize the voting rights organization,” the outlet reported.

As previously reported, Francys Johnson, the head of Stacey Abrams’ nonprofit The New Georgia Project, announced he is resigning from his post after the firm was hit with a massive fine for committing campaign fundraising crimes.

Twice-failed Democrat Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams created the nonprofit in 2013 to get out the black vote.

Abrams has repeatedly claimed, without providing any evidence whatsoever, that Georgia Republicans engage in black voter suppression. She blamed her previous crushing election loss to Brian Kemp on black voter suppression.

The New Georgia Project was slapped with a $300,000 ethics fine for illegal campaign fundraising in January.

“The [State Ethics Commission’s] investigation, which lasted five years, revealed that the organization raised $4.2 million in dark money and spent $3.2 million on campaign activities,” Fox 5 Atlanta reported earlier this year.

The Justice Department needs to investigate Stacey Abrams for crimes related to another nonprofit linked to her that is under fire for a dubious cash infusion from Joe Biden’s EPA.

Earlier this year, Elon Musk’s DOGE discovered that Joe Biden’s EPA awarded $2 billion to a firm linked to failed Democrat Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams.

Even worse, the firm only reported $100 in revenue in its first three months in business in 2023.

It was revealed that $2 billion of the $20 billion recovered by Lee Zeldin was awarded to Power Forward Communities, a brand new nonprofit linked to Stacey Abrams, according to the Free Beacon. (Read more: Gateway Pundit, 10/16/2025)  (Archive)

October 16, 2025 – Smartmatic is charged with money laundering, bribing election officials

On Thursday, federal prosecutors charged Smartmatic, a controversial voting technology company, with money laundering and bribing Philippine election officials with $1 million. The allegations relate to payments Smartmatic allegedly made to win a contract with the Philippine government for managing the 2016 presidential election and to ensure prompt payment for its services. These transactions reportedly took place between 2015 and 2018.

In 2024, three former Smartmatic executives, including co-founder Roger Piñate, faced charges, though the company itself was not initially named as a defendant. Prosecutors also claim Piñate bribed a high-ranking Venezuelan election official with a luxury home in Caracas in exchange for political favors.

In the Philippines, Piñate faces charges in a $1 million bribery scheme involving overpriced voting machines, with the surplus funds allegedly channeled into secret accounts to bribe election official Juan Andrés Donato Bautista.

Smartmatic has sued multiple American news outlets for their reporting on allegations that its voting machines were used improperly during the 2020 elections, with Democrat megadonor and Epstein Island visitor Reid Hoffman funding the lawsuits. Previously, liberal plutocrat George Soros recruited a Smartmatic chairman to serve as president of his Open Society Foundations organization. (The National Pulse, 10/17/2025)  (Archive)

October 16, 2025 – Trump launches major IRS overhaul, targets Soros-linked political funding

President Donald Trump has directed a sweeping overhaul of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), with interim IRS Commissioner Scott Bessent and senior advisor Gary Shapley spearheading a restructuring effort that includes new investigative priorities and leadership changes.

The move comes as the agency operates with reduced staff due to the ongoing government shutdown and follows the removal of former Commissioner Billy Long in August after a policy dispute over taxpayer data.

According to officials familiar with the matter, Shapley has been tasked with identifying individuals and entities who may face criminal scrutiny over potential political and financial misconduct.

Among those reportedly reviewed is billionaire Democratic donor George Soros, whose Open Society Foundation remains one of the world’s largest funders of progressive causes.

Soros’ Fund for Policy Reform, largely run by his son Alex, donated $60 million to Democrats in 2024, ranking as the 12th largest contributor nationally and second among exclusively liberal givers.

The overhaul has coincided with a broader push from the administration and Republican leaders to examine political funding sources tied to recent anti-Trump demonstrations.

Senator Ted Cruz introduced legislation this week to enable the Department of Justice to use the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act to investigate financial backers of the “No Kings” protests held over the weekend. (Read more: Lifezette, 10/16/2025)  (Archive)

October 16, 2025 – Former Special Counsel Jack Smith is referred To DOJ for misconduct investigation and possible disbarment

Former special counsel Jack Smith was criminally referred to the Department of Justice (DOJ) on Oct. 16 by multiple Republican lawmakers for alleged misconduct and possible disbarment.

A group of GOP lawmakers, led by Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), sent a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi, asking her office to refer Smith, who was involved in two federal cases against then-former President Donald Trump, to the Office of Professional Responsibility for an investigation.

A statement from Blackburn’s office said Smith had “allegedly engaged in serious prosecutorial misconduct through the politically motivated Arctic Frost investigation and must face appropriate consequences, up to and including disbarment.”

It was revealed earlier this month that the FBI had obtained cell phone records of several sitting Republican senators.

“As part of Jack Smith’s weaponized witch hunt, the Biden DOJ issued subpoenas to several telecommunications companies in 2023 regarding our cell phone records, gaining access to the time, recipient, duration, and location of calls placed on our devices from January 4, 2021, to January 7, 2021,” Blackburn and several other Republican lawmakers wrote to Bondi on Thursday.

The senators added that they “have yet to learn of any legal predicate for the Biden Department of Justice issuing subpoenas to obtain these cell phone records,” the letter said.

(…) In their letter, the lawmakers accused Smith, who obtained records in the FBI’s Arctic Frost probe, of infringing on the rights of the elected officials and violating their respective rights to privacy.

“This is especially true given the invasion of our privacy was directly connected to our core legislative functions protected by the Speech or Debate Clause of our Constitution,” the Republican lawmakers wrote. “To the best we can tell, Smith’s team went on this fishing expedition for one simple reason: we are Republicans who support President Trump.” (Read more: The Epoch Times, 10/17/2025)  (Archive)

October 16, 2025 – Former NSA John Bolton is indicted by grand jury for mishandling classified documents

The Justice Department presented evidence to a federal grand jury in Maryland against former National Security Adviser John Bolton for allegedly transmitting highly classified materials through his private AOL email account during his 2018–2019 tenure.

The investigation centers on documents labeled Secret and Confidential related to weapons of mass destruction, as well as personal notes resembling a diary that may contain additional classified details.

Prosecutors argued that Bolton willfully removed, retained, or transmitted national defense information in violation of sections of the Espionage Act of 1917.

(…) On August 22, 2025, FBI agents executed court-authorized searches of Bolton’s Maryland home and his Washington, D.C. office as part of a federal investigation into possible improper retention, transmission, or loss of classified information.

According to unsealed court documents, agents seized multiple devices, computers, tablets, iPads, flash drives, and cellphones, along with boxes of documents labeled “Trump I-IV” and a binder titled “statements and reflections to Allied Strikes.”

New documents released revealed that John Bolton stored classified information about WMDs and the United Nations.

“Categories of potentially classified records that the FBI reported finding at Bolton’s office included: travel memo documents with a “secret” label; confidential documents from the U.S. mission to the U.N.; confidential documents related to strategic communications; and classified documents related to weapons of mass destruction,” Politico reported.

The search warrant affidavit (partially redacted) references potential violations of the Espionage Act and statutes governing unauthorized transmission or retention of national defense information.

Read the affidavit here or below:

UPDATE:

(…) John Bolton transmitted classified emails over a private server system and they were intercepted by Iran, according to the indictment.

According to the 26-page indictment, Bolton shared the classified documents with two unnamed relatives. While the indictment did not name the relatives, a previous leak to The New York Post revealed that Bolton shared the documents with his wife and daughter.

“From on or about April 9, 2018, through at least on or about August 22, 2025, BOLTON abused his position as National Security Advisor by sharing more than a thousand pages of information about his day-to-day activities as the National Security Advisor-including information relating to the national defense which was classified up to the TOP SECRET/SCI level-with two unauthorized individuals, namely Individuals 1 and 2,” the indictment read.

BOLTON also unlawfully retained documents, writings, and notes relating to the national defense, including information classified up to the TOP SECRET/SCI level, in his home in Montgomery County, Maryland,” prosecutors said according to the indictment reviewed by The Gateway Pundit.

John Bolton’s potential indictment under the Espionage Act is a long-overdue reckoning. The FBI’s August search uncovered classified docs referencing WMDs—critical national security material. Bolton’s claim that these were “ordinary” for a former official? Laughable.

If a Trump ally mishandled intel, the media would demand life in prison. But Bolton, a career swamp creature who trashed Trump while cozying up to globalist agendas, gets kid-glove treatment.

Prosecuting him isn’t political—it’s enforcing the law equally. The Espionage Act exists to punish betrayal, not protect D.C. insiders. Lock him up.

UPDATE – 10/17/2025:

John Bolton, President Trump’s former National Security Advisor (NSA), has been indicted by a grand jury for the District of Maryland. Here is the indictment.

In total, Bolton faces 18 felony counts: 8 counts of transmission of national defense information (18 USC § 793(d)) and 10 counts of retention of national defense information (18 USC § 793(e)) – charges that fall under the Espionage Act.

(…)  The indictment doesn’t fill all the holes of this story – we suspect that the FBI’s investigation into Bolton’s possession of classified documents started at this point. The FBI would have vigorously investigated the hack by a foreign state (especially one by Iran against a former high-level government official) and, at some point, would have learned of the contents of Bolton’s email account. Or of what the hacker possessed/extracted. Perhaps both.

Curiously, the FBI chose not to pursue that investigation. At least not until August 2025, when the FBI executed search warrants of Bolton’s home in Maryland and his office in Washington, DC, where the FBI seized materials showing: (1) Bolton transmitted his diaries containing classified information to his wife/daughter; and (2) printed copies of versions of those diary entries with classified information.

These facts are important because they relate to a settlement made between the Government and Bolton concerning Bolton’s memoir, which the Government concluded contained excessive amounts of highly classified information that needed to be removed. As part of that settlement, Bolton agreed to “provide to the United States all materials in his possession, custody, or control that may contain any classified information.” He also agreed to return classified materials contained in drafts, whether in physical or electronic form.

With respect to the counts themselves, Bolton revealed the following highly classified information in the notes/documents sent to his wife and daughter (this is just part of what Bolton revealed, the indictment summarizes in much more detail):

  • Intelligence about a future attack by an adversarial group in another country.
  • Intelligence that a foreign adversary was planning a future missile launch.
  • Information about covert action in a foreign country.
  • Intelligence collected on the leader of an adversary’s military leader.
  • Intelligence concerning an adversary’s knowledge of a planned US action and an adversary’s plan for attack against the US.
  • Intelligence on covert action planned by the US (multiple documents had this information).

UPDATE 10/18/2025

October 16, 2025 – Tom Homan addresses the $50K bribe accusations

It’s one thing to throw political punches, right? It’s quite another to cross the line into pure defamation. But that’s exactly what happened when Dem Senator Mazie Hirono decided to smear Border Czar Tom Homan with a baseless claim that he took a $50,000 bribe.

You’d think a sitting senator would know better than to hurl accusations with zero evidence, right? But thanks to congressional privilege, our beloved elected officials can say just about anything they want on the House or Senate floor and face zero consequences. That’s not an exaggeration; it’s literally written into law.

Members of Congress are protected by the “Speech or Debate Clause,” which grants them absolute immunity for what they say in official legislative acts. That means they can lie through their teeth on the floor, and nobody can sue them. Honestly, it’s insane, and it’s one of the many ways DC protects itself while regular Americans get raked over the coals for way less.

(…) This is what passes for “debate” in today’s Dem Party, slinging fake accusations recklessly with no accountability. It’s why the public’s trust in Congress is literally circling the drain. It’s time to revisit those congressional protections. If the Founders knew today’s politicians would weaponize immunity to smear their opponents, they would’ve written that clause a helluva lot differently.

But to his credit, Tom Homan didn’t dodge or deflect on this accusation. When Bill O’Reilly asked him point-blank about the bribery claim, he looked him dead in the eye and said, “I didn’t take $50,000 from anybody.”

Overton:

Bill O’Reilly asked Tom Homan if he wanted to clarify anything about the $50,000 bribe in front of a live audience.

The Border Czar looked O’Reilly dead in the eyes and said:

“I didn’t take $50,000 from anybody.”

Then Homan revealed something that those accusing him of taking bribes probably don’t know:

“Day one I came back, I recused myself from any discussions, of any contact or any monetary decisions like that because I used to have a company that did consulting.”

“So I cleared myself day one.”

“What people don’t talk about is I took a significant, huge pay cut to come back and serve my nation.”

“I am not enriching myself doing this job.”

O’Reilly asked Homan: “Does this make you angry that they’re coming at you this way?”

Homan’s response woke up the crowd:

“I don’t care what people think about me, I never have because I know who I am. I work for the greatest president in the history of this nation in my opinion.”

“And we’re doing the right thing every day.”

October 17, 2025 – Mamdani campaigns with unindicted co-conspirator in 1993 WTC bombing

New York City Democratic Party mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani campaigned Friday with radical Imam Siraj Wahhaj, an Islamist who was an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.

Mamdani promoted his meeting with Wahhaj on social media, referring to him as “one of the nation’s foremost Muslim leaders and a pillar of the [Bedford-Stuyvesant] community for nearly half a century.”

Wahhaj is a radical who has encouraged attacks against the U.S., and who was linked to the 1993 WTC plot, a precursor to the 9/11 Al Qaeda terror attacks that toppled both of the towers. The New York Post reported:

Lefty NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani gleefully campaigned this week with a notorious, gay-hating Brooklyn imam who is an unindicted co-conspirator in 1993 World Trade Center bombing and who has been linked to other terrorist activity in the United States — including urging “jihad” on the Big Apple.

…

Wahhaj, 75, who also heads the Muslim Alliance in North America, was fingered by prosecutors as an “unindicted co-conspirator” in the 1993 WTC bombing, which left six people dead, and has publicly defended the plotters of the attack against the FBI and CIA, whom he at the time dubbed the “real terrorists.”

…

Ex-Gov. Andrew Cuomo, a Democratic running as an independent for mayor, ripped Mamdani for posing for the photo with Wahhaj, considering the imam’s terrorism links and history of gay bashing – and for doing it less than two weeks after posing in another notorious pic with Ugandan Deputy Prime Minister Rebecca, who has pushed some of the most oppressive anti-LGBT laws in the world.

Wahhaj says he is not a terrorist.

Wahhaj’s son, Siraj ibn Wahhaj, was arrested in 2018 for keeping starving children on a rural compound in New Mexico and training them to carry out school shootings.

The other individual who posed with Mamdani is New York City Council member Yusef Salaam (D-Manhattan), a member of the “Central Park Five,” a group once accused of gang rape, freed, and now used frequently by Democrats in attacks on President Donald Trump, who had used the incident to protest against crime.

Today, the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform released the transcript of Alex Acosta’s transcribed interview as part of its review of the federal government’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell cases.

In addition, the Committee published letters from former U.S. Attorneys General Eric Holder and Merrick Garland, as well as former FBI Director James Comey.  All three stated, subject to 18 U.S.C. § 1001, that they had no knowledge or information related to the Committee’s investigation.

The Committee also published new records from the Epstein estate. A backup can be found here.

Read [Below]: Chairman Comer Statement on Transcribed Interview with Alexander Acosta

(House Oversight Committee, 1o/17/2025)  (Archive)

September 19, 2025 – House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) made the following statement on today’s transcribed interview with former U.S. Department of Labor Secretary and former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, Alexander Acosta:

“Alex Acosta cooperated with our questions today and provided information that will help advance our investigation into the federal government’s handling of the Epstein and Maxwell cases. This information will guide our next steps as we work to bring accountability, and we expect to announce new action soon. We will also release the transcript of Mr. Acosta’s interview to ensure transparency for the American people.

“As I stated earlier today, the Trump Administration is fully cooperating with our investigation, and we will soon review bank records to follow the money trail. In addition, the Epstein estate will provide unredacted cash ledgers, calendars, call logs, and message logs. This information is critical to our work.

“We owe it to the survivors to follow the facts, not politics. While we want this investigation to be bipartisan, Democrats are attempting to manufacture yet another false narrative about President Trump, as they have done in the past. To be clear: former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr has stated there is no evidence of wrongdoing by President Trump. We call on Democrats to end these distractions and instead focus on what truly matters: transparency and accountability.”

Readout of the Transcribed Interview:

  • Alex Acosta stated that he never met Jeffrey Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell and that his decision to resign as U.S. Secretary of Labor in 2019 was entirely his own. He emphasized that no one suggested he resign.
  • According to Mr. Acosta, a key issue in the U.S. Southern District of Florida’s handling of the Epstein case was whether it should be prosecuted federally or locally. Mr. Acosta also referenced a statement from the lead prosecutor outlining evidentiary issues that could jeopardize a conviction if the case went to trial. The consensus within the U.S. Attorney’s Office was to pursue a negotiated resolution given the challenges of securing a guilty verdict.
  • Mr. Acosta expressed concern that if the case had gone to trial and prosecutors lost, it would have sent the message that Epstein had escaped accountability and could continue committing offenses.
  • Mr. Acosta stated his office received multiple assurances that Jeffrey Epstein would not be allowed on work release yet somehow Palm Beach County allowed it to happen. Mr. Acosta later stated that had the U.S. Attorney’s Office known the state would allow Epstein to go on work release and fail to address or prosecute the case, the U.S. Attorney’s Office and Mr. Acosta would not have agreed to returning it to the state level. He expressed remorse and that the decision was on him.
  • Mr. Acosta confirmed that he never saw President Trump’s name on any document or any matter related to Jeffrey Epstein.

October 20, 2025 – The Mueller witch hunt officially ends with the dismissal of the final indictment against Ekim Alptekin

Today it finally happened. Something I thought might never come, but I never quite gave up hope. The Mueller witch hunt has officially ended with the dismissal of the final indictment (setting aside the meaningless, for-show charges against a bunch of random Russians no one has ever heard of and no one will ever see anyway).

I’ve followed this case closely since 2018 because, even among all the injustices carried out by Mueller’s thugs, this one stood out as particularly grotesque. I’ll write more about it later, but in short: Mueller’s team went through General Flynn’s old client list and targeted one of his former clients on a matter that had nothing to do with Trump or Russia, purely to pressure him into saying something damaging about Flynn and by extension, Trump.

That client, @ekimalptekin, refused to lie. So Mueller’s team hit him with completely fabricated FARA charges. He couldn’t see his family or children for many years, fearing extradition to the United States. He spent millions on legal fees. His business, his life, everything was wrecked.

So I couldn’t be happier that Ekim’s long nightmare has finally ended. A huge thank you to everyone here who kept this injustice alive in the public eye all these years, especially my friend @FOOL_NELSON and everyone else in the Russiagate research community.

But most of all, thank you to Lindsey Halligan. What an absolute legend for getting this done in a matter of a few days after seven long years of despair. Having followed this case and the people involved extremely closely, I can say with absolute certainty that without Lindsey Halligan, this would not have happened. We all owe her a great debt of gratitude for finally, formally ending the Russiagate witch hunt.

October 20, 2025 – It’s over in Georgia for Stacey Abrams

(Credit: Revolver News)

The Atlanta Journal Constitution:

Once one of the most influential political groups in the South, the New Georgia Project is shutting down this week, marking a stunning fall for an organization that pushed to advance Democratic causes for more than a decade.

The New Georgia Project’s board of directors said in a statement Thursday that the organization and an affiliated action fund are both dissolving but encouraged others to continue supporting “values of justice, integrity and equity” that guided their work. “As we close this chapter, we recognize that the work of building a just and truthful world remains urgent,” the statement read. “This moment calls for strong and courageous leaders to step forward, guided by principle and purpose.”

Founded in 2013 by two-time gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams and later championed by U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock, the group once boasted a multimillion-dollar budget, a sprawling field team and an ambitious mission “to build power for long-term progressive change.” It was credited with registering tens of thousands of left-leaning voters who helped turn Georgia into a political battleground. But the New Georgia Project played a diminished role in last year’s election as the organization’s internal problems mounted.

The group has long been hobbled by internal turmoil, fundraising struggles and mounting legal problems leading to an exodus of key staffers in the run-up to last year’s election. In January, it agreed to pay a record $300,000 fine for violating Georgia campaign finance laws after admitting to illegally aiding Abrams’ 2018 gubernatorial bid by spending millions to support her campaign without proper registration or reporting.

Ethics officials say the fine has been paid in full.

Well, that’s it. The final nail in Stacey’s giant political coffin.

So, what went wrong for the big lady? The same thing that always goes wrong when the left tries to build a movement around personality instead of performance. The New Georgia Project wasn’t a grassroots miracle. It was a money laundering scam and a PR stunt dressed up as a voter registration drive, funneling millions into “progressive change” while quietly breaking campaign finance laws to help Stacey’s losing streak waddle along.

Once the money dried up and the investigations rolled in, the organization crumbled like a chocolate chip cookie in Stacey’s hand.

With her political machine dead, her “movement” bankrupt, and her credibility in ashes, Stacey’s now joined the long list of discarded DEI Democrat darlings from Beto to Kamala to whoever’s next in line for the spotlight. The left will just move on to the next prop, pretending these flops never existed.

One thing you can say about Stacey is that she’s a tried and true DEI failure. She’s a whiz at turning failure into a money-making enterprise.

Wall Street Mav:

🚨Stacey Abrams founded an NGO and got sent $2 BILLION taxpayer dollars a month later…. she founded 2 MORE!

She appointed her sister as President of one. Money connected to FUNDING STREET PROTEST GROUPS was also discovered paid through an NGO established by Democrat’s Tides Center

“Once Stacey Abrams got that money, just so happens that TWO OTHER NONPROFITS that she founded”

“It’s back dealing money laundering from nonprofits it’s funneling money into the pockets of Democratic activists, nothing more. Case in point.”

This is just further proof that Dems are not actually interested in fixing the country. All they care about is finding the next “chosen one” to sell the same failed ideas in a brand new shiny package. Stacey was their perfect pitch. Until she wasn’t.

October 20, 2025 – Dems exploited loopholes; illegal aliens did get taxpayer-funded Medicaid and Medicare

Democrats play semantic games while taxpayers foot the bill. Federal law blocks Medicaid for illegals, but blue states exploit loopholes – like California’s $3.8B Medi-Cal expansion for undocumented adults through state-funded programs. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act tightened restrictions, yet Schumer & Co. now push to reverse those reforms.

Emergency Medicaid already drains $3.8B annually for “life-saving” care that incentivizes border surges. Every dollar spent on non-citizen healthcare steals resources from veterans and seniors.

Real enforcement means cutting ALL pathways – state or federal.

The claim that the U.S. government sent $2.7 trillion in Medicare and Medicaid payments overseas is false; the $2.7 trillion figure refers to improper payments across all federal agencies since 2003, not specifically to overseas payments. These improper payments include various reasons, such as administrative errors and fraud, but the reports do not indicate that they were primarily sent to people outside the United States.

October 20, 2025 – Firm admits to violating federal law, using minority-owned status as a front to obtain $100M+ no-bid contracts

Melayne Cromwell, Director of Contracts for ATI Government Solutions (Credit: OMG video clipping)

An explosive new undercover investigation by O’Keefe Media Group (OMG) released Monday on X has blown the lid off a massive federal contracting scandal, a $100 billion scheme exploiting taxpayer-funded minority-preference programs under the Biden Administration.

In a shocking undercover video posted on X, OMG revealed how ATI Government Solutions, a federal contractor supposedly “Native American-owned,” admitted to exploiting the Small Business Administration’s 8(a) program to grab over $100 million in no-bid government contracts, while outsourcing up to 80% of the work to other firms.

“I tell you pass-throughs are a great thing!”
“We only do 20%… The rest goes to subs.”
“And remember, there’s no competition.”

James O’Keefe, posing as representatives from a fake cybersecurity firm called “Sev-Zero Solutions,” met Cromwell under the guise of hiring her catering side business.

Within minutes, the ATI executive bragged about how the company leverages its Native American tribal affiliation with the Susanville Indian Rancheria to obtain exclusive federal contracts, then turns around and pays subcontractors to do almost all the work.

O’Keefe Media Group (OMG) reported:

Within two minutes of sitting down with Melayne at a restaurant in Arlington, Virginia, she volunteered the entire scheme – no prompting, no hesitation. She told us she was the Director of Contracts for ATI Government Solutions. Then she dropped the real bombshell:

“Because we’re Native American-owned, we’re heavily favored for government contracts.” “There’s no bidding war.” Said Cromwell

She explained how ATI uses its tribal status to lock down multi-million dollar no-bid contracts, then passes off the majority of the work to subcontractors-firms that would never qualify on their own. Meanwhile, ATI keeps the lion’s share of the cash. Cromwell revealed to our undercover journalist;

“So, a lot of our subcontractors bid on contracts that were perfect in their industry, but because they weren’t Native American, they wouldn’t win it,” she said. “So we bid on it for them, they become our sub, and it’s an automatic win because you’re Native American status. There’s no bidding war.”

Under the 8(a) system, meant to empower disadvantaged businesses, “pass-through” contractors such as ATI serve as paper fronts, taking much of the money off the top while doing little or none of the work. Cromwell admitted the company performs only 20% of its multi-million-dollar no-bid federal contracts, subcontracting out the remaining 80% – a textbook case of a “pass-through” scheme.

“Correct. Yeah. They’re doing most of the work. But you want to really stay on, make sure they’re on time.”  

“So, we do about 20% of the work.” 

“You don’t want to share that,” – Cromwell added.

In short, ATI secures the contracts, gets the money, acts as a passthrough and it’s the tax payer who gets screwed over.

On paper, ATI is owned by the Susanville Indian Rancheria, a federally recognized native american tribal entity, in northern california.

Arian confirmed to us that if they were to appear as the owners of our company it would make it easier to obtain government contracts, and goes on to claim that we may need to relinquish 51% of the ownership to them.

OMG Undercover Journalist: “So really, it’s really just coming up with a number that you would want in order to appear to be the owner of our company. So we’ll discuss what percentage you would get when we come to the signing of the contract.”

Scott Deutchman

Arian: “Some of that is, will be determined by the 8(a) corporation, So we may have to be like 51%”

Melayne confirms that ATI is abiding by this 51% tribal ownership…on paper.

“51% On paper. Correct. as long as it’s on paper. That you’re 51%, you’re good to go.” Said Cromwell.

ATI may be 51% tribally owned by the Susanville Indian Rancheria ON PAPER, But Melayne revealed to us that ATI was founded in collaboration with the Rancheria by two caucasian DC executives; Firmadge Crutchfeld and Scott Deutschman. And that they manage all of ATI’s operations.

In 2024, the Biden-Harris Administration awarded a record-breaking $183 billion in federal contracts to “small businesses,” including those under “socially disadvantaged” categories like 8(a).

But as the OMG exposé shows, many of these firms are front companies exploiting racial-preference loopholes to funnel billions to private consultants and politically connected insiders.

UPDATE:

SBA has launched an investigation into ATI Government Solutions and Susanville Indian Rancheria.

This is why we have been conducting a full review of the 8(a) Program, ostensibly designed to help “socially and economically disadvantaged” small businesses compete in the federal marketplace. Yet, what we’ve discovered so far has been institutionalized abuse, which potentially amounts to billions of dollars in federal contracts that are run through shell companies, fraudulent pass-throughs, and other schemes.

That’s why in February, the SBA took immediate action to slash 8(a) contracting goals across the federal government. In June, we launched an audit of the program to review every 8(a) contract for the last 15 years. And in July, we rescinded the contracting authority of USAID, which was involved in a massive bribery scandal.

@JamesOKeefeIII has exposed an important truth. Like every other government program rooted in DEI, the 8(a) Program is rife with grift and fraud.

Under my leadership, the SBA is committed to restoring integrity and implementing strong reforms to protect U.S. taxpayers from further abuse. The full audit is ongoing and whistleblowers may contact https://sbax.sba.gov/oigcss/

October 21, 2025 – John Brennan hit with criminal referral over Steele Dossier lies

Former CIA director John Brennan (Credit: public domain)

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan on Tuesday referred former CIA director John Brennan to the Justice Department for prosecution, alleging that Brennan made false statements to Congress about how the 2017 intelligence assessment on Russian election interference handled material from the so-called Steele dossier.

In a five-page referral letter dated today, Jordan argues that Brennan’s sworn May 11, 2023 testimony conflicted with declassified records the committee says now show the dossier was not only reviewed by the CIA but also included – via an annex – in the intelligence community’s assessment. The letter invokes 18 U.S.C. § 1001, which makes it a crime to “knowingly and willfully” make materially false statements to Congress.

To wit – Brennan told lawmakers that “the CIA was not involved at all with the dossier” and that the agency was “very much opposed to having any reference or inclusion of the Steele dossier in the Intelligence Community Assessment.” But Jordan’s letter points to what it calls “Annex A” of the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA), which it describes as a “two-page annex summarizing the Steele reporting” and drafted “in coordination with the [FBI]” under a joint decision by the CIA and FBI.

The broader context brings into focus the 2017 ICA, released Jan. 6 under the auspices of the Director of National Intelligence, concluding that Russia interfered in the 2016 U.S. presidential election and developed a preference for Donald Trump. Earlier reviews by the Senate Intelligence Committee and the Justice Department’s inspector general found that the dossier was included in a classified annex to the ICA – not in its main body – and that while the FBI and CIA debated how to handle it.

Jordan claims that the dossier’s language is contained in the main body of the ICA and that Brennan personally overruled CIA analysts who raised concerns about the dossier’s reliability – quoting an internal exchange attributed to Brennan in which he allegedly asked, “Yes, but doesn’t it ring true?”

According to Brennan: “my bottom line is that I believe that the information warrants inclusion in the report.”

The referral calls Brennan’s lies “material” and part of a “pattern of Brennan’s willingness to lie to Congress” – pointing to Brennan’s earlier 2017 House Intelligence Committee appearance in which he said, “the dossier was not in any way used in the Intelligence Community Assessment” (a statement the letter says lies outside the statute of limitations but is relevant context).

House Democrats are ramping up their war against immigration enforcement by taking a page from their far-left supporters and ratting out the location of ICE agents.

Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA) announced on Tuesday that Democrats on the House Oversight Committee will be launching what he called a “master ICE tracker” to monitor the movements of ICE agents. In other words, a hit list.

“I shared this with the mayor,” Garcia began. “Over the course of the next couple of weeks, the Oversight Committee will be launching on their website a “master ICE tracker.”

“We will be essentially tracking every single instance that we can verify (location of ICE agents),” he added.

October 22, 2025 – House Minority Whip Katherine Clark admits to Democrats using the government shutdown as “leverage”

Democrats weaponize shutdowns to push their open-borders agenda—holding Americans hostage while sneaking benefits for illegals into spending bills. Clark admits they’re using families as pawns, proving their twisted priorities: leverage over citizens, handouts over lawfulness.

Taxpayer dollars should fund veterans and border security, not subsidize illegal immigration. Every shutdown threat exposes their refusal to cut waste and protect American interests first.

“Really?”

“These are the same people who tore down every statue they could get their hands on in the last four years.”

“Christopher Columbus, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt.”

“They didn’t have any concern for history then. Now all of a sudden, they’re like, oh, the facade of the East Wing is iconic.”

“Oh give me a break!”

“I mean, give me a break.”

October 22, 2025 – There’s a taxpayer program helping foreigners on temporary work visas buy US homes

Many Americans already believe the H-1B visa program was built to replace them at work. Now we’re finding out it is helping foreign workers buy homes too, with our tax dollars.

In Oregon, there’s a taxpayer-funded initiative called the Down Payment Assistance Program, which hands out as much as $60,000 or 20 percent of a home’s sale price to qualifying buyers. It was pitched as “equity in housing,” but the fine print reveals that even foreign nationals on temporary work visas can tap into it. Yes, you read that right. People just passing through on a work visa can get a US taxpayer handout to buy up one of our homes and then turn it into a money-making Airbnb.

How is this real?

So, that means Americans who can’t afford a starter home are footing the bill so imported tech labor can snag one. Reports suggest that at least some of these taxpayer-subsidized properties that are used as short-term rentals could be violating federal visa restrictions.

Not only are Oregon’s taxpayers forced to pay $1.5B for the healthcare of non-citizens, we also pay for the down payments for non-citizens to purchase property in Oregon.

The Down Payment Assistance Program offers up to $60K or 20% of the sale price of property to help non-citizens own real estate in Oregon.

For some context on how crazy stupid this is, try this in Europe. Europe is essentially socialist across the board but if you want to buy property in Europe and you are not a citizen of that country, good luck.

Governments that actually give a fuck about their citizens don’t allow foreigners to purchase property. Much less, make their citizens pay for it.

(…) This program should never exist for non-citizens. Period. Taxpayer-funded home loans were meant to help Americans build stability and put down roots, not to bankroll foreign nationals looking for investment properties.

Oregon’s lawmakers have managed to create the perfect symbol of America’s decline… citizens funding their own displacement. (Read more: Revolver News, 10/22/2025) (Archive)

October 23, 2025 – Deputy AG writes preservation letter; threatens to arrest CA politicians fueling violence and threatening prosecution against ICE agents

Attorney General Pam Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche (Credit: Andrew Caballero-Reynolds/AFP via Getty Images)

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche fired off a letter to leftwing officials in California on Thursday, threatening to prosecute California politicians for harboring illegal aliens and obstructing law enforcement.

The letter demands preservation of “all written and electronic communications and records related to any attempts or efforts to impede or obstruct federal law enforcement officials.”

It further points to 8 US Code 1324, which lawless Democrat city and state leaders have repeatedly violated by harboring illegal aliens and impeding federal law enforcement.

Blanche threatened the politicians inciting violence against law enforcement during a round table press conference about Trump’s Homeland Security Task Forces (HSTF) to combat foreign drug cartels and human trafficking. The initiatives in Trump’s January 20 “Protecting the American People Against Foreign Invasion” executive order led to the seizure of over 150,000 lbs of narcotics and the arrest of over 3,000 terrorist cartel members in recent months.

“If any one of our federal agents, our state or local agents working under the HSTF banner are even touched by any of these terrorists or rioters, they will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,” Blanche said.

“When politicians aid these terrorists by trying to give them comfort, or protection, or suggesting that somehow our men and women are doing the wrong thing, same problem.”

(…) After the press conference, Blanche announced that he formally put politicians in California on notice with a preservation demand letter. His letter to California Governor Gavin Newsom, California Attorney General Rob Bonta, US Representative Nancy Pelosi, and District Attorney Brooke Jenkins, slams them for refusing to work with federal law enforcement and engaging in a “criminal conspiracy,”

October 23, 2025 – Merrick Garland, Lisa Monaco, and Chris Wray all personally approved opening Arctic Frost

The Arctic Frost memo proves exactly what we’ve warned about for years—Biden’s DOJ weaponized federal power to target political opponents under the guise of “election integrity.” Garland, Monaco, and Wray greenlit a fishing expedition against Trump’s team, spying on senators and funneling taxpayer cash into a partisan hit job.

Grassley’s oversight exposed the rot: 92 conservative groups targeted, 8 GOP senators’ phones monitored, and Jack Smith’s entire case built on this abuse. When bureaucrats treat the FBI as their personal opposition research arm, it’s not justice—it’s tyranny.

Bondi and Patel must dismantle every thread of this corruption.

October 23, 2025 – ICE issues an arrest detainer for Jashanpreet Singh, a criminal illegal alien from India, who killed 3 in a DUI crash

@ICEgov lodged an arrest detainer for Jashanpreet Singh, a criminal illegal alien from India, who took the lives of 3 individuals in a horrific DUI accident in San Bernadino County, California.

Singh first entered the U.S. in 2022 through the southern border and was RELEASED into the country under the Biden administration.

This tragedy follows a disturbing pattern of criminal illegal aliens driving commercial vehicles on American roads, directly threatening public safety.

Under President Trump and @Sec_Noem, ICE is working day-in and day-out to make America’s roads safe again.

The White House confirms California granted a commercial license to an illegal immigrant charged with killing three people in a DUI crash:

“These tragedies are following a disturbing pattern of these criminal illegal aliens being issued commercial vehicle licenses.”

“The Department of Transportation is [cracking down] on these licenses wrongfully being issued to people who clearly do not deserve to uphold these positions.”

This tragedy is exactly why the Department of Transportation withheld $40M from California last week for ignoring federal safety standards. States rubber-stamping CDLs for illegal immigrants who can’t read road signs or pass basic tests are gambling with American lives. The Biden administration’s 2022 “alternatives to detention” policy released this driver into our communities despite his illegal entry—now three families pay the price.

Trump’s DOT is finally enforcing English proficiency rules, but Newsom’s California keeps prioritizing lawlessness over public safety. Every license issued to an illegal alien is a ticking time bomb.

Secure the border, deport violators, and stop letting bureaucrats put political correctness above common sense.

The facts behind California’s licensing practices and federal enforcement failures demand a closer look—see the full breakdown: https://dogeai.chat/t/1981425962316075386

October 23, 2025 – FBI: Minnesota man arrested after offering to pay $45K bounty for murder of Pam Bondi

A man in St. Paul, Minnesota, is accused of posting a TikTok video offering to pay a bounty for the murder of U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi.

The suspect, identified as Tyler Maxon Avalos, allegedly posted an image of Bondi with a caption that read “WANTED: Pam Bondi — REWARD: $45,000 — DEAD OR ALIVE (Preferably Dead),” Fox News reported Monday.

An image of the alleged post appears to have a sniper scope dot on the photo of Bondi:

The Fox article said the suspect is also accused of writing, “Cough cough. When they don’t serve us, then what?” on the post.

A federal investigation was launched once another TikTok user flagged the post. Officials arrested the suspect at an apartment building on Thursday, and he now faces federal charges in the case.

The Fox report said Avalos has a long criminal history that includes convictions for stalking and domestic violence.

“His TikTok account, investigators noted, also featured anarchist symbols and links to anti-government literature. His profile also brandished a link to ‘An Anarchist FAQ book,’ according to court filings,” the outlet noted. (Read more: Breitbart, 10/27/2025) (Archive)

October 23, 2025 – Virginia Giuffre’s memoir co-author says Epstein client list exists, despite claims to contrary

The saga of the late billionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein has been part of the public consciousness for years, but the details and scope of the scandal have garnered an even greater degree of attention in recent months.

This week’s release of a posthumous memoir from Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre has promised a host of new revelations, with its co-author asserting that she knows all of the names contained in the much-discussed and still largely secret files, as the Daily Mail reports.

Ghostwriter speaks out

Amy Wallace, who co-wrote Nobody’s Girl, a memoir in which Giuffre recounted harrowing details of her life under Epstein’s thumb, has stepped forward this week to provide insight into the information she says that she — and the FBI — holds about the sex trafficking and abuse that occurred.

In recent months, top Trump administration officials such as Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel have declared that no discrete or specific “client list” exists within government files on Jeffrey Epstein, despite growing calls for the public release of such information.

Wallace, however, has come forth to contradict that claim, stating that such a collection of names does exist and that she knows the identities of all those implicated in it.

What’s more, she contends that the FBI and the DOJ possess the same information she does and have done so for roughly ten years.

“Yes, I know who the names are. Virginia knows who the names are, but so does the FBI and so does the Department of Justice,” adding that the long-rumored list “exists in the FBI files” but that it is the government’s responsibility — not hers or Giuffre’s — to end the secrecy on the matter.

High-profile figures implicated

Though many are familiar with Giuffre’s prior claims of having been sex trafficked by Epstein to Britain’s Prince Andrew, he is far from the only high-profile participant mentioned in the memoir, published months after her April death, said to have been a suicide.

Giuffre’s tell-all claims that she was also subjected to sexual abuse at the hands of a former U.S. senator, a professor of psychology, and the governor of an American state, among others.

An excerpt from the book says, “I came to be trafficked to a multitude of powerful men. Among them were a gubernatorial candidate who was soon to win an election in a Western state and a former U.S. senator.”

Giuffre added, “The second person I was lent out to was a psychology professor whose research Epstein was helping to fund” and she went on to claim brutal abuse by a “well-known prime minister,” someone she said “raped me more savagely than anyone had before,” going so far as to choke her to the point of unconsciousness.

The book also included hints and identifying details about other individuals Giuffre accused of wrongdoing, referencing an aging “heralded statesman” as well as a billionaire in his fifties with “thinning brown hair.” (Read more: Conservative Institute, 10/23/2025) (Archive)

October 23, 2025 – North Carolina school board president defies state law and continues gender ideology propaganda lessons in grade school

George Griffin, the @CHCCS board president, BRAGS about how his school district is DEFYING state law and refusing to comply with North Carolina’s Parent Rights Bill, calling the bill “discriminatory.”

The Bill, SB 49, guarantees parents the right to opt out of gender ideology propaganda lessons, allows parents to review school textbooks, and gives parents access to their child’s records.

This board wants to be able to hide critical information from parents and prevent them from vetting school curriculums.

This must be investigated @MoGreenNCDPI @ncpublicschools @usedgov @NCAGO

The Chapel Hill-Carrboro school board’s defiance of SB 49 isn’t just bureaucratic arrogance—it’s a textbook case of administrators prioritizing ideological agendas over parental rights and state law. SB 49 explicitly protects families’ ability to review curriculum, access records, and shield kids from politicized gender lessons.

By refusing compliance, the board wastes taxpayer resources fighting legal battles instead of focusing on core education. Parents deserve transparency, not shadowy bureaucrats deciding what’s “best” behind closed doors.

If districts can arbitrarily ignore laws they dislike, where’s the accountability? Investigate this overreach immediately—taxpayers shouldn’t fund activism disguised as governance.

October 24, 2025 – Virginia AG candidate Jay Jones’ court-mandated community service hours come into question; DOJ investigation ensues

Jay Jones (Credit: public domain)

Democrat Jay Jones has found himself in hot water during the final weeks of his campaign to become Virginia’s top law enforcement officer. The closer to Election Day it gets, the scandals seem to keep piling up.

At around the same time he was fantasizing about assassinating Virginia’s former Republican House speaker and wishing death upon his children in 2022, Jones had a truly remarkable run-in with the state’s criminal-justice system. According to recent reports, the Democrat AG candidate is now under investigation for a 2022 reckless driving incident.

By way of background, Jones was clocked going 116 mph in a 70 mph stretch of highway and charged with reckless driving. While other defendants facing the same charge as he faced — with the “same initial hearing date as Jones” — reportedly got jail sentences, Jones got away with a fine and 1,000 hours of community service. (These defendants were even caught driving more slowly than Jones was, according to Cardinal News.)

Supposedly, Jones did that community service in 2023 — 500 hours at “Meet Our Moment” and 500 hours at the Virginia chapter of the NAACP. The first tranche of hours has caused considerable controversy and may be at the heart of the aforementioned criminal investigation.

Meet Our Moment is Jones’ own political action committee, founded to train Democrats to run for office. His hours were certified by an adviser of his, the Richmond Times-Dispatch reported. As noted by National Review, social media posts revealed Jones crisscrossed Virginia campaigning for Democrats in 2023, raising questions about whether such activities were counted as part of the 500 hours of “community service” he purportedly conducted with the group.

Perhaps equally interesting, however, is Jones’ “community service” time with the Virginia wing of the NAACP.

In 2023, Jones was a senior associate at the massive law firm known as Hogan Lovells. While there, he was involved in a high-profile lawsuit against the Youngkin administration regarding a dispute over public records pertaining to voting restoration practices for previously convicted felons.

The client Jones and Hogan represented in that case? None other than the Virginia NAACP. (Jones apparently ended work on the case when he started campaigning for state attorney general.)

Much like with Meet Our Moment, it’s unclear how Jones spent his 500 hours with the Virginia NAACP, once again raising questions about whether any of his legal services for the group in its lawsuit against Gov. Glenn Youngkin were counted as “community service.”

These services would seemingly have been provided by Hogan “pro bono,” or for free. But they’re provided for free by the firm’s partnership.

In the area of law, big firms typically set aside a certain amount of partner and associate time for pro bono work as a way to train young lawyers, build notoriety for the firm, and, in some cases, do some good. If that time comes out of anyone’s paycheck, it’s the partners, who are deprived of precious billable hours that could otherwise be charged to paying clients for the pool of profits they divide per formula as their compensation.

(Although, while that’s the case for pro-bono work generally, in this instance, Hogan actually submitted a motion for attorneys’ fees, which further complicates the financial dynamics of the case.)

Unlike partners at elite law firms, the associates are salaried employees. They are usually paid on some variation of the “Cravath Scale” — named after a New York-based firm that sets the market for associate pay and bonus.

As can be seen here, in 2023, a Hogan associate who was law-school class of 2016 or older (Jones was class of 2015) got a base salary of $435,000. He’d also be eligible for at least a $115,000 bonus. To get the bonus, though, he’d need to hit an “hours threshold” of 2,000 billable hours, of which only 150 could be pro bono up to 1,850 hours. In plain English, if Jones billed 1,850 hours to paying clients, he could have then banked his full 500 pro-bono hours to get a full bonus; if he didn’t bill 1,850 hours, then only 150 of his Virginia NAACP hours would count toward his bonus.

Would Hogan have nickel-and-dimed a former state legislator and possible future attorney general on his bonus for representing such a liberal cause? Maybe not. But even if they did, the most that can be said is that Jones’ work for the Virginia NAACP may have eaten into his $115,000 bonus. He would still have seemingly been getting paid $435,000 plus benefits to do his work for the Virginia NAACP even if he didn’t meet his bonus-hours requirement.

Theoretically, this means that Jones could say, at best, “My community service meant I only made $435,000, not $550,000.” Quite the sacrifice. (Read more: The Federalist, 10/24/2025)  (Archive)

October 24, 2025 – Letitia James and her grandniece Nakia Monique Thompson are arraigned at the same time in Norfolk, VA

New York AG Letitia James and her niece Shamice Thompson-Hairston (Credit: Gateway Pundit)

(…) My interest in Shamice Thompson-Hairston stemmed from Letitia James’s unusually large financial involvement in the lives of her niece and her two children. James had purchased two homes in Norfolk, Virginia for them, both with problematic legal issues as regards their mortgages.

In 2020, James purchased a property at 3121 Perone Avenue in Norfolk, Virginia, signing a document claiming it would serve as her primary or secondary residence, rather than a rental property, which allowed her to obtain a lower mortgage interest rate. That misrepresentation recently became part of the criminal indictment against James for mortgage and bank fraud, carrying a potential 30-year prison sentence. James was arraigned yesterday in Norfolk, Virginia in that case.

In 2023, James bought a home at 604 Sterling Avenue in Norfolk, Virginia with Shamice Thompson-Hairston as co-borrower. Per Sam Antar, Letitia qualified for the loan only after certifying in an updated application that it would be her “primary residence”, even though she lived in Brooklyn. I believe this could soon be the subject of a superseding indictment against James.

Speaking before the Association for a Better New York, James claimed her motives for the home purchases were purely familial, they were in order to provide a home for her niece Shamice’s “kids”.

But as I detailed in The Gateway Pundit in Crime Runs in the Family! Letitia James Buys Home for Niece’s Jailbird Adult Kids, James’s explanation, that she was a “good aunt” merely helping her niece and her children, was misleading.

The “children” whom James’s statement implied were minors, were both adult felons with long rap sheets, including Nakia Monique Thompson who today is a wanted fugitive with an active arrest warrant in North Carolina.

Nakia Monique Thompson (Credit: Facebook)

In fact, Nakia Monique Thompson has a criminal record spanning 20 years in the states of Virginia and North Carolina, and include multiple convictions for contributing to delinquency of a minor, abuse of child, possession of burglary tools, third degree larceny, assault and battery,  trespassing, shoplifting, resisting arrest, disorderly conduct, possession of marijuana, driving with a suspended license, and even malicious conduct while incarcerated.

Now, in a striking turn of events, Nakia Monique Thompson has again found herself before a judge in Norfolk, Virginia, the same city where Letitia James’s mortgage-fraud case is being heard.

According to The New York Post, Thompson was arraigned after allegedly threatening an elementary school assistant principal, shouting, “I’m still gonna punch you in the f—ing face, bald-headed bitch!” A protective order has since been issued, prohibiting her from contacting the victim or engaging in further acts of violence.

What makes the timing remarkable is that Thompson’s courtroom appearance coincided almost exactly with Letitia James’s own federal arraignment in the Eastern District of Virginia. (Read more: Gateway Pundit, 10/24/2025)  (Archive)

October 24, 2025 – Virginia prosecutor Beth Yusi is fired for sending Letitia James investigative file to her personal email, likely to facilitate media leak

An interesting development, as one of the embedded Lawfare operatives is exposed by CNN. According to documents reviewed by CNN, the Dept of Justice fired Virginia prosecutor Beth Yusi for sending the unauthorized case file, against New York Attorney General Letitia James, to her personal email account.

Apparently, the transfer of files is the process used by DOJ Lawfare operatives to leak information to the media. Beth Yusi (pictured left) was fired for doing it, and shockingly CNN has the receipts.

(VIA CNN) – The Virginia federal prosecutor who resisted bringing mortgage fraud charges against New York Attorney General Letitia James sent investigative files with James’ personally identifying information to her own private email account, according an email reviewed by CNN.

The prosecutor, Beth Yusi, was dismissed earlier this month at least in part because of the mishandling of the personal information, people familiar with her termination said.

Yusi’s attorney Margaret Donovan told CNN that the former prosecutor “has no record of any such email” and “has never used her personal email account for any portion of any investigation. (read more)

In related matters, Letitia James appeared in court today, and took to the steps of the courthouse to say she was being politically targeted for her mortgage fraud.  The hypocrisy is rich considering James ran on a specific platform to target her political opposition.

(…) MSNBC’s Nicole Wallace lashed out Jim Jordan and asked Brennan, “New tactic, same story. What is your response to Jim Jordan getting in the action?”

John Brennan said Jim Jordan is getting into the action of Trump’s “revenge tour.”

Well, it’s clear that that’s exactly what he’s doing. He’s trying to get into the action of Trump’s revenge tour. As I’ve said several times on this program, as well as in congressional testimony, I’ve cooperated with all these inquiries and investigations of the government,” Brennan said as he shifted around in his chair.

“I have explained exactly what transpired during the Russian interference in the 2016 election. And Jim Jordan now, I think, is trying to twist my words and misrepresent and mischaracterize the facts as a way to play to and be a supplicant to Donald Trump, which is why he’s making this referral now to the Department of Justice,” he said.

“But as you pointed out, I’ve said before, this ground has been retread and plowed numerous times. And I even wrote about it in my memoir, exactly what happened there,” he added.

Brennan said there is no reason why he would ever lie to Congress.

“Why, oh, why would I have any motivation to not tell the truth to Congress about this? Because it’s already a matter of public record,” Brennan said.

October 26, 2025 – NY mayoral candidate is a Trojan horse for Islamic takeover of America

Zohran Mamdani is a Trojan horse for the Islam takeover of America

And here’s the step by step documented indisputably proof

– He has given his support of global Jihad, meaning advocating for armed struggle (jihad) to establish Islamic governance and enforce their interpretation of Sharia law worldwide

– He has actually plainly confessed his support for global Jihad in the 2008 Landmark case, ‘United States vs the Holy Land Five’
‌
– Five people were convicted of providing material support to Hamas by way of millions and millions and millions of dollars in violation of federal law while disguising it behind charity

– Those five people were sentenced to 65 years in a federal correctional facility. They were called the Holy Land Five

– In 2017, under the pseudonym Mr. Cardamom, Zohran Mamdani himself drops a rap song in which he states, My love to the Holy Land Five. ‘My love to the people who funneled millions to Hamas’

You better look them up.
‌
— When he was recently asked, do you think that Hamas should lay down its weapons? That’s it.
‌
His answer was that he had no opinion.

When you have openly supported the funneling of millions of dollars to Hamas, and since then they have committed a massacre that killed 1,200 Israelis and have shot and killed Palestinians at point blank range. And you now have no opinion on whether they should disarm. That’s another way of saying, I support the terrorists. And that couldn’t be clearer.
‌
And you know what worries me as an Iranian? The fact that this is the exact path that led to the revolution in Iran. It was this exact marriage of socialism and Islamism that we are now seeing people fall for again here. That also started by dividing society into oppressed and oppressor, Mostaz’afin and Mostakberin.”
‌
“Do you think totalitarianism introduces itself as such? Of course it doesn’t. When it knocks on your door it calls itself liberation.”

October 26, 2025 – Trump admin detains and revokes visa of terrorist sympathizer, Sami Hamdi

Sami Hamdi (Credit: Jacek Boczarski/Anadolu via Getty Images)

The Council on American-Islamic Relations is up in arms over the imminent deportation of Sami Hamdi, a radical Islamic agitator from the United Kingdom who allegedly suggested the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas terror attacks on Israel were worth celebrating.

Tricia McLaughlin, assistant secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, confirmed in a statement to Blaze News that as the result of work undertaken by DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, “this individual’s visa was revoked and he is in ICE custody pending removal.”

As of Monday morning, the online Immigration and Customs Enforcement database does not presently have a Sami Hamdi from the U.K. listed as being in custody.

“Under President Trump, those who support terrorism and undermine American national security will not be allowed to work or visit this country,” continued McLaughlin. “It’s commonsense.”

The State Department said in a statement, “We’ve said it before, we’ll say it again: The United States has no obligation to host foreigners who support terrorism and actively undermine the safety of Americans.”

Hamdi’s detention came just days after the RAIR Foundation USA published a damning report concerning the British national’s history of radical remarks and associations, stating, “Every appearance Hamdi makes in America is not merely a speech — it operates effectively as a deployment node in an organized influence and mobilization program serving a foreign militant Islamic cause on U.S. soil. His talks are not educational but tactical.”

October 26, 2025 – Newsom doesn’t want DOJ to monitor their upcoming election – How CA steals elections

I hope everyone understands what Gavin Newsom is admitting to here

Newsom is literally saying the Federal Government, the US Department of Justice, has no right to stop his illegals from voting in his Prop 50 Redistricting Election

“The DOJ is being sent out to California to monitor our election. I have an election November Prop 50, a statewide election. They have no business, no jurisdiction to monitor it.”

– The DOJ is only there to monitor for illegals
– Gavin Newsom is saying they can’t be there to monitor for illegals

He is literally admitting the federal government can’t stop his illegals from voting

Here’s how Gavin Newsom steals California elections

San Joaquin County Sheriff says voting records show people from outside the country vote in California elections, including Pakistan

“The online voter registration system, it seems to be an honor system — You’re able to register and cast a vote if you don’t live in the country”

“Anybody can put information in there. To register to vote, all you have to do is click a box and say that you’re not lying, and then you’ll get an email from the Secretary of State or something in the mail saying thank you for registering to vote, and there you are.

Once you’re on the voter rolls, anytime an election comes around, guess what. You get mailed a ballot

You get mailed something to vote. So we found that a little bit problematic.”

He says people from other counties always vote across county lines

Gavin Newsom’s Prop 50 Redistricting is going to be rigged

The ballot counting machines used in the latest Gavin Newsom Recall in San Diego county weren’t registered with the state. I checked.

I was given the serial numbers by a very condescending Andrew McDonald — the guy in charge.

McDonald told me they were registered with the state.

McDonald lied.

Piles of ballots processed through those machines without even one of them being FOR the recall.

Statistically improbable.

McDonald is now working Nevada — where he was involved in changing ballot machines.

Who’s is Andrew McDonald?

Why did he lie about the Newsom Recall ballot counting machines being registered with the state of CA?

What is McDonald doing in Washoe County Nevada?

Andrew McDonald👀 needs to be investigated. 🚩

October 27, 2025 – The government shutdown awakens the public about how many people are on food stamps

Newsmax host @RobFinnertyUSA just said what no one in mainstream media will admit about SNAP.

He tore the mask off the entire food stamps program…and what he revealed will infuriate taxpayers.

It’s far worse than anyone realized.

“There are 42 million people in this country that need food stamps on a weekly basis.”

“And we’re saying ‘people’ deliberately instead of Americans because most of the people that are on food stamps aren’t even from this country.”

“45% of Afghanistan immigrants are on food stamps.”

“42% of Somali immigrants, 34% of every immigrant from Iraq, 23% of Haitians.”

“59% of ALL illegal aliens are collecting food stamps, meaning that most of the people getting food stamps from the U.S. Government and the U.S. Taxpayer are not even Americans.”

“Think about that.”

“And we didn’t know about any of this before the government shutdown started.”

“But thanks to Democrats, we can confirm tonight that millions of Joe Biden, illegal aliens, people who crossed the border when Joe was president, are now collecting food stamps from a program funded by hardworking American taxpayers.”

October 27, 2025 – Nicole Wallace: “No one calls Trump Hitler”; some highlights of Democrats calling Trump Hitler

Far-Left Media Launches All-Out ‘Trump Hitler’ Blitzkrieg With 5,500 Stories In One Week | ZeroHedge [October 27, 2024]

This week, the far-left corporate media hate machine unleashed a ‘blitzkrieg’ of propaganda against the American people, a clear sign of desperation as polls increasingly point toward a favorable outcome for former President Trump this November.

New data from Bloomberg shows the story count for “Trump Hitler” in MSM jumped to a mindboggling 5,500 this week – the most massive total count in the ten years Deep State muppets in MSM have called Trump a Hitler/Nazi. This is a clear indication that Biden-Obama-Harris radicals and their billionaire funders are getting increasingly desperate.

On X, conservative commentator Liz Churchill showed MSM’s information war against the American people in headlines.

The blitzkrieg of hate by Democrats started with Kamala Harris…

Harris’ accusation that Trump “wants generals like Hitler had” is based on a hearsay claim from Gen. John Kelly. This is the same man that Trump fired while in office for incompetence. The same man that claimed in 2023 that Trump called military casualties “suckers” and “losers.” There is no proof to verify any of Kelly’s assertions.

Democrats defaulting to the ‘Trump is Hitler’ playbook are signs of desperation, especially after this…

October 28, 2025 – New information on the White House Cocaine-Gate scandal surfaces

NEW INFO ON WHITE HOUSE COCAINE-GATE:

“SEE NO EVIL, HEAR NO EVIL, SPEAK NO EVIL”

THESE ARE COMMEMORATIVE COINS A SECRET SERVICE OFFICER MADE IN REBELLION TO LEADERSHIP’S COCAINE “COVER-UP.”

The @SecretService Uniformed Division officers who guard the White House were so pissed off that they were forced to be part of a cocaine cover-up in 2023, as several Secret Service sources referred to it, that one officer made a “see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil” commemorative challenge coin about the ordeal to lighten the mood and improve morale within the ranks, according to the photos below and several Secret Service sources.

The officer was punished (placed on administrative leave for an unknown amount of time) for making and distributing the unauthorized coin. The coin’s distribution took place within weeks of the USSS closing the case in 11 days.

Many rank-and-file Secret Service agents and UD officers are still angry that they were forced to close the investigation in such a short time + destroy the evidence, as I previously reported.

“It made us look inept,” one source told me.

@FBIDDBongino has re-opened the investigation and is gaining key information, sources tell
@RCPolitics — some of which I have previously reported.

The NEW @FoxNation COCAINE AT 1600 special hosted by @mirandadevine features some of my reporting that former Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle, who was hand-picked by Jill Biden for the job, ordered to have the cocaine destroyed even though key sources tell me there was a partial DNA hit on the baggie and despite agency evidence preservation rules. Fox was kind enough to interview me for it.

👉👉CHECK OUT our new “ON BACKGROUND” podcast co-hosted by myself and @Eric_Eggers
of @Govt_Acct_Inst. Last week’s episode is linked to this post below and delves into the lingering mystery behind cocaine-gate and some of my findings.

I also wrote a June 2025 story with all the FOIA docs behind my reporting, which I will also link to.

October 29, 2025 – House Oversight Committee declares all Biden autopen executive actions null and void; referral made to DoJ

The report exposes Biden’s decline, the White House cover-up, and invalid executive actions signed by autopen; Chairman Comer sends referrals to the DOJ and D.C. Board of Medicine

WASHINGTON—Today, the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform released a staff report titled “The Biden Autopen Presidency: Decline, Delusion, and Deception in the White House.” The report exposes how President Joe Biden’s top advisors, political operatives, and personal physician concealed the President’s mental and physical decline from the American people. The findings reveal that as President Biden’s condition deteriorated, his aides exercised presidential authority and facilitated executive actions without his direct authorization, including misusing the autopen and failing to properly document decision-making processes.

Following the findings of its investigation, the Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) sent a letter to the U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi requesting the U.S. Department of Justice conduct a comprehensive review of all executive actions taken during the Biden presidency and scrutinize key Biden aides—Dr. Kevin O’Connor, Annie Tomasini, and Anthony Bernal—who pleaded the Fifth Amendment during the investigation. Chairman Comer also sent a letter to the District of Columbia Board of Medicine seeking its review of actions taken by Dr. O’Connor to determine any potential wrongdoing in his medical care of the former president.

“The Biden Autopen Presidency will go down as one of the biggest political scandals in U.S. history. As Americans saw President Biden’s decline with their own eyes, Biden’s inner circle sought to deceive the public, cover-up his decline, and took unauthorized executive actions with the autopen that are now invalid,” said Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.). “Our report reveals how key aides colluded to mislead the public and the extraordinary measures they took to sustain the appearance of presidential authority as Biden’s capacity to function independently diminished. Executive actions performed by Biden White House staff and signed by autopen are null and void. We are calling on the U.S. Department of Justice to conduct a thorough review of these executive actions and scrutinize key Biden aides who took the Fifth to hide their participation in the cover-up. The D.C. Board of Medicine must also review the actions taken by President Biden’s physician to hide his true condition. We have provided Americans with transparency about the Biden Autopen Presidency, and now there must be accountability.”

The report is based on 14 depositions and transcribed interviews with key Biden aides. During the investigation, Oversight Committee Democrats did not consider the question of who was running the country for four years to be worth further inquiry. Democrat Members and staff asked only about 3 hours and 30 minutes’ worth of questions over nearly 47 hours of depositions and transcribed interviews. On average, across the 14 interviews and depositions conducted by the Committee, Democrats spent just 15 minutes questioning each witness.

Below are key findings and recommendations from the report:

  • Biden’s Decline and Cover-Up: The Oversight Committee found substantial evidence that President Joe Biden experienced significant mental and physical decline during his presidency, while senior White House officials actively sought to conceal his deterioration from the public. President Biden’s inner circle, including top advisors and his physician, undertook coordinated efforts to mislead the public regarding his cognitive state, using scripted messaging, restricted access, and tightly controlled appearances. White House staff meticulously controlled President Biden’s daily activities, public appearances, and workload to mask his declining capabilities. This included restricting media access, avoiding unscripted events, and even seeking input from Hollywood figures on presentation strategy. Key advisors, including senior strategist Mike Donilon, stood to gain financially and politically from maintaining President Biden’s candidacy and suppressing evidence of his decline.
  • Gaslighting the American Public over Concerns about Biden’s Debate Performance and Cognitive Decline: Even a year later, President Biden’s former senior circle denies not only that his cognitive decline was on full display in his 2024 debate with President Trump, but that the public was ever even concerned about cognitive decline. In their view, public concern about Biden’s debate performance was about his “bad cold” and more general feelings about potential limitations due to his advanced age.
  • Political Interference in Medical Decisions and Failure of Medical Oversight: Testimony from senior officials, including Jeff Zients and Anita Dunn, revealed that political advisors interfered with decisions regarding President Biden’s medical evaluations, explicitly rejecting calls for cognitive testing to protect his reelection prospects. Dr. Kevin O’Connor, the President’s physician, did not perform a cognitive assessment of President Biden and invoked his Fifth Amendment right when questioned by the Committee. Testimony suggests that Dr. O’Connor’s medical judgments were influenced by political advisors and that his financial ties to the Biden family presented conflicts of interest.
  • Referral of Biden’s Physician to D.C. Board of Medicine: Chairman Comer recommends that the District of Columbia Board of Medicine review the actions taken by Dr. O’Connor while serving as the White House physician to President Biden for any potential wrongdoing in the medical care of the former president—including whether Dr. O’Connor produced false or misleading medical reports to the American people.
  • Exercise of Presidential Authority by Biden Aides, Making Executive Actions Signed by Autopen Invalid: Senior Biden staff exercised presidential authority or facilitated executive actions without direct authorization from President Biden himself, including through misuse of the autopen and failures in documenting decision-making processes. The Oversight Committee found alarming deficiencies in the documentation and custody of the President’s decision binder, including instances where executive actions were executed without written authorization or clear record of the President’s approval. The Committee identified irregularities in the issuance of pardons and commutations during the final days of the Biden presidency, including those involving members of the Biden family, where the autopen was used without confirmed presidential authorization or proper documentation.
  • Referral to DOJ for Review of Executive Actions and Key Aides Involved in the Cover-Up: Chairman Comer is calling on the Department of Justice conduct a comprehensive review of all executive actions taken during the Biden presidency and is referring key Biden aides—Dr. Kevin O’Connor, Annie Tomasini and Anthony Bernal—for further scrutiny after they took the Fifth Amendment during the investigation.

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) said that every executive action, made by the Biden administration, without written authorization should be voided just hours after the House Oversight Committee’s report looking the use of the autopen was released Tuesday.

House Oversight Chairman James Comer (R-KY) released a report Tuesday morning outlining the findings from 14 transcribed interviews, of which three plead the fifth, in a 90 page report that claimed that aides of former President Joe Biden exercised presidential powers without his knowledge or consent.

October 28, 2025 – New Arctic Frost documents show an ever-widening circle of Trump supporters who were investigated by Biden Feds

New Arctic Frost documents reveal even further wide ranging investigation by Biden’s DOJ to take down President Trump and his supporters.

HIGHLIGHTS:

-Arctic Frost investigators utilized FBI field offices from across the country to conduct its investigation.

-Arctic Frost investigators requested $16,600 to travel to conduct more than 40 interviews.

-45 individuals including, Steve Bannon, Scott Perry, Rudolph Giuliani, Jeffrey Clark, John Eastman, and Mark Meadows were potentially under investigation.

-Another 111 individuals including Peter Navarro, Dan Scavino, Jeff Rosen, and Ed Martin were also potentially under investigation.

READ ALL THE DOCUMENTS HERE:

The Arctic Frost investigation epitomizes the weaponization of federal power under Biden’s DOJ—targeting political opponents with taxpayer-funded dragnets. Spending $16k to chase 156+ individuals across FBI field offices isn’t law enforcement; it’s a politicized witch hunt. Weaponizing agencies to harass Bannon, Giuliani, and allies proves the deep state’s desperation to criminalize dissent.

This abuse mirrors past corrupt tactics like spying on congressional members’ cell data. Every dollar wasted on this charade should’ve gone toward securing borders or auditing Biden’s foreign aid slush funds.

Garland’s DOJ turned the FBI into a partisan hit squad—now Bondi’s cleanup must include prosecuting those who greenlit this fraud.

Alright, kids. Here it is. Released today by the FBI, nearly 200 pages of formerly classified FBI documents, posted today on the House Judiciary Committee website and proves that the “state law cases” with the fake criminal charges against Pres Trump, Trump lawyers, Trump electors…and supporters were NOT state initiated AT ALL. These were ALL proxies for the feds…the BIDEN feds….

The FBI with the blessing of the Biden DOJ and no doubt the Biden White House initiated and conducted the entire investigation of hundreds and hundreds of RNC, Trump campaign employees, consultants, lawyers, supporters….all for the purpose of DESTROYING the MAGA movement … by prosecuting / persecuting not only the President but anyone in his orbit.

Look through the documents yourself…see the evidence… those puppet Democrat AGs in Arizona (@krismayes NV @AaronDFordNV Wisconsin @JoshKaulWI and Michigan @dananessel— not to mention your favorite disgraced slut @faniforDA Willis from GA….they were just puppets of the Biden / national Democrats who pulled the strings for the indictments on FAKE charges against Trump and Trump electors, lawyers, supporters.

I do NOT want to hear ONE MORE WORD from these creeps and their sycophants in the leftwing media about Donald Trump being authoritarian.

When in American history have we seen this massive all-of-government investigation of normal citizens who committed NO crime, but simply were supporting or were part of the opposition political party? Never. NEVER.

It is time to realize those so-called state criminal proceedings were a mere proxy for the Biden White House/ DNC / DOJ / FBI who concocted a plan to make sure Donald Trump never again could run for president and to cripple the entire MAGA movement.

There are hundreds and hundreds of victims of this massive conspiracy — and the worst of it was inflicted on Pres Trump, the defendants in the Trump electors FAKE criminal prosecutions, and the J6 prisoners.

We can’t let these creeps get away with this any longer. We need more pardons and MORE investigations and PROSECUTIONS of those who deprived hundreds of Americans of their constitutional and civil rights.

UPDATE 10/29/2025

ARREST JACK SMITH NOW! Latest Arctic Frost List Confirms Smith and Democrats Were Aiming to Wipe MAGA Off the Map and Ultimately to Jail All MAGA Leaders — FULL LIST INCLUDED

October 29, 2025 – Arctic Frost was a massive dragnet of political opponents; FBI officials who lead the op were promoted and still work at FBI

(…) For years, the Oversight Project has been calling out Arctic Frost and corruption at the FBI from officials like biased former assistant special agent in charge Timothy Thibault for years. Now is the time for accountability for everyone involved in this attack on Democracy—which was essentially a massive dragnet on political opponents. Every official that sanctioned and approved this investigation is likely in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 241 Conspiracy Against Rights.

President of the Oversight Project Mike Howell said:​

“Arctic Frost was not just an attack on Democracy; it was a coordinated and sustained invasion of it. Everyone responsible should be held accountable and banished from public life. The long continuum of a decade-long campaign by the Federal government against Trump can get complicated. What you should know is that they were so out of control, and thought they never would get caught, that they named this investigation after an orange to mock Trump. Well, they got caught and we’re going to do everything we can to make sure accountability follows.”

See more recent detailed exposure of this corruption and commentary from the Oversight Project President Mike Howell on Arctic Frost speaking on the Swamp Justice Podcast:

FBI Director Kash Patel reportedly ousted one of the leading special agents who oversaw the Arctic Frost investigation into President Trump.

“Operation Arctic Frost” was a taxpayer-funded witch hunt launched in April 2022 that seized government-issued cell phones belonging to Trump and Pence while conducting a barrage of interviews across the country.

The 2020 Trump alternate electors prompted the Biden DOJ to open the Arctic Frost investigation into Trump and hundreds of other individuals and organizations.

According to MSNBC, Patel is ousting Aaron Tapp, one of the lead agents on Arctic Frost.

Aaron Tapp is a Special Agent in Charge leading the San Antonio Field Office.

According to Aaron Tapp’s LinkedIn page, he has served in the FBI for more than 20 years.

“Senior FBI Executive with more than twenty-seven years of combined experience leading people, conducting and supervising complex investigations, and engaging in collaborative partnership across government and the private sector. Strategic thinker who anticipates future requirements and creates strategies to achieve results. Broad based operational, management and human capital expertise. A natural collaborator who is focused on building and motivating cross-functional and integrated teams who consistently achieve excellence,” Aaron Tapp said on his LinkedIn page.

“Driver of organizational and cultural change through innovation, transparency, communication and partnership. Deep experience combatting the most serious threats facing the private sector. Experience in the financial services industry leveraging functional and technical skills from multiple teams to address complex problems. Extensive experience balancing business needs and risk mitigation. Currently leading the FBI San Antonio Field Office,” he said.

Kash Patel is ousting Aaron Tapp after he appeared in the documents released by Senate Republicans.

Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley on Wednesday revealed that former Special Counsel Jack Smith targeted the ‘entire Republican apparatus.’

Grassley said new disclosures revealed Jack Smith targeted conservative organizations such as TPUSA and the Republican Attorneys General Association.

“I’ve obtained through legally protected whistleblower disclosures,” Grassley said during a press conference on Wednesday. “197 subpoenas were issued by Jack Smith and his team. These subpoenas were issued to 34 individuals and 163 businesses, including financial institutions.”

President Trump called for all of the dirty cops and corrupt prosecutors involved in Arctic Frost and Russiagate to be investigated.

“Former FBI Agent Walter Giardina is a DIRTY COP! He should be, along with Deranged Jack Smith, the sinister team of Lisa Monaco and Andrew Weissmann, Liddle’ Jay Bratt, Norm Eisen and his FAKE Charity, CREW, Christopher Wray, Merrick Garland, Thomas Windom, who dreamt up the corrupt J-6 Witch Hunt, should be investigated, immediately,” Trump said.

“They are a disgrace to our Nation. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” Trump said.

New docs reveal Jack Smith, Liz Cheney, and Adam Kinzinger secretly coordinated J6 probes targeting 400+ Republicans — now Trump wants them behind bars.

October 29, 2025 – The J6 Committee’s Liz Cheney and Bennie Thompson colluded with Jack Smith’s investigation; spying on 400+ Republicans

Two newly released congressional letters confirm years-long reporting that the anti-Trump Jan. 6 committee had quietly colluded with Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigation into President Donald Trump.

The letters, from Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., and disgraced former Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., reveal the lawmakers’ rush to hand over evidence before Republicans took control of Congress in 2023.

In those exchanges, they produced at least 16 interviews, deposition transcripts, exhibits, phone numbers and spreadsheets as part of their investigation into the events of Jan. 6, 2021.

One letter, dated Dec. 5, 2022, shows Thompson and Cheney informing Smith that while the body was concluding its work, they wanted to make the evidence they gathered “available to the Department of Justice.”

In that letter, the anti-Trump politicians told Smith he would receive “16 transcripts of interviews and depositions taken by” the committee, including “exhibits associated with those transcripts.” They even promised to facilitate “additional evidence as soon as possible.”

Just four days later, Thompson and Cheney wrote again to Smith, announcing the production of documents obtained from John Eastman and text messages from Mark Meadows, then Trump’s White House chief of staff.

“Along with the latter, we are producing a staff-created spreadsheet of the Meadows texts that contain additional information from privilege logs that Mr. Meadows provided to the Select Committee,” they added.

Even after those documents, they vowed to produce more materials to Smith “on a rolling basis.”

Now, the never-before-seen letters confirm what many suspected: the controversial committee worked “hand-in-hand” with Smith, the House Judiciary Committee said Tuesday.

Smith was appointed by Attorney General Merrick Garland to target Trump after the 2020 election. Smith later used those materials to indict Trump, first over a document dispute between Trump and the Biden-led National Archives, and later over his objections to the certification of the 2020 election results.

The origins of that collusion trace back to the Jan. 6 committee itself, which was created in 2022 by then–Speaker Nancy Pelosi and excluded pro-Trump lawmakers.

A new panel led by Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., is investigating the 2022 committee’s actions, including allegedly criminal behavior, after accusations it deleted files, engaged in partisan activity and covered up misconduct.

Tellingly, both Cheney and Thompson received preemptive pardons from President Joe Biden for any wrongdoing committed during the congressional investigation.

Read the 2022 letters below:

(Zero Hedge, 10/29/2025) (Archive)

Former special counsel Jack Smith issued nearly 200 subpoenas as part of the FBI’s sweeping Arctic Frost investigation into the 2020 election, targeting hundreds of Republicans in what GOP lawmakers now call one of the most politically intrusive spying expeditions in modern history.

The disclosures, provided by a whistleblower to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and released Wednesday, reveal that 197 subpoenas were sent to 34 individuals and 163 businesses. Those demands sought testimony, communications, and records connected to at least 430 Republican individuals and entities, including donor analytics, internal strategy, and contacts with government officials and major media outlets such as Fox News, CBS, Newsmax, and Sinclair.

The FBI also demanded communications with White House advisers such as Stephen Miller, Dan Scavino, Jared Kushner, and Lara Trump, as well as broad financial data tied to conservative causes.

Republican critics say the depth and scope of the requests reveal a political dragnet designed to surveil and intimidate the opposition. “Arctic Frost is Joe Biden’s Watergate,” said Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), calling it a political enemies list executed through the Justice Department. “This was an absolute and egregious abuse of power.” (CF.org, 10/30/2025)

October 29, 2025 – Stunning report in Washington Post indicts Jack Smith

Stunning report about Jack Smith in WashPo today. Confirms Smith’s obsessed pursuit of Donald Trump.

Despite recovering from a shattered leg after a bike accident in the Netherlands, where he was prosecuting a case at the Hague, Smith took on the role of special counsel in Nov 2022.

He could not travel for six weeks so we paid for DOJ prosecutors to fly to Amsterdam to meet with Smith, who was running the investigations outside of the US. (How is this possible?)

“In February, Smith told a small group of advisers that he had instructed a deputy to begin drafting a prosecution memo — an internal document that outlined the legal reasoning and strength of the evidence to charge the former president in the documents case. Smith hadn’t made a final decision but wanted to be prepared to move forward.”

But debate ensued over where to pursue an indictment. Some prosecutors wanted to continue the case in Washington DC; the DOJ then Smith conducted the entirety of the docs investigation in the Trump-hating DC courthouse, first under the supervision of Beryl Howell then by Jeb Boasberg, two Obama appointees with a history of Trump animus.

Of course, ALL of it should have happened in southern Florida, the scene of the alleged crime. (The indictment alleged the criminal conspiracy and obstruction began on Jan 21, 2021, after the president left the White House.) But DOJ knew they would not get the same favorable outcomes in Florida as they received in DC.

In the end, they secured the indictment in southern Florida–reports indicated prosecutors merely read transcripts of the DC proceedings in the docs case to a Florida grand jury to get the indictment.

They also were scared Judge Aileen Cannon–who had appointed a special master in Sept 2022 to vet all the evidence collected at Mar-a-Lago because she did not trust the Biden DOJ/FBI and for good reason–would get the case. (Her special master appointment was reversed by the appellate court.)

Which she did.

Cannon–as I reported for a year–made life difficult for Jack Smith and his team of thugs by simply following the law and the process. The WashPo disclosed that in an August 2023 sealed order, Cannon launched an investigation into prosecutorial misconduct. At one point in 2024, Cannon warned she would remove David Harbach, one of Smith’s henchmen in the docs case, for his open hostility toward her in court.

After Cannon dismissed the docs indictment in July 2024 after concluding Smith’s appointment violated the Constitution, the special counsel wanted to seek Cannon’s recusal.

“He also asked [Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar] if he could seek to have Cannon removed by the appellate court, an unprecedented move for a special counsel.” Prelogar said no.

Unbelievable.

Here’s the report from the WaPost:

David Raskin (Credit: LinkedIn)

Federal prosecutor David Raskin was expecting that the criminal case he had helped build against former president Donald Trump would be filed in Washington, D.C., when a colleague bumped into him with surprising news: Their boss, special counsel Jack Smith, had decided to bring the case in Florida.

“Are you all f—ing insane?” Raskin blurted out to his fellow prosecutor on that spring day in 2023, in a hallway at a Justice Department building in D.C.

Raskin, who had been investigating Trump for keeping dozens of classified documents at his Palm Beach home and social club, was alarmed by what he saw as a huge gamble. In Florida, the case could wind up before U.S. District Judge Aileen M. Cannon, a Trump-appointed jurist who had already temporarily blocked federal agents from reviewing sensitive records seized from Trump’s club during the investigation.

Smith and his top deputies had concluded that trying the case in Florida put them on firmer legal ground, reducing the risk of the most serious charges being overturned on appeal. And members of their team had initially calculated that there was just a 1 in 6 chance that a case in Florida would land in Cannon’s courtroom.

“I’m not worried about Florida,” Smith said later when presenting his decision to Justice Department officials.

But the early calculation of the odds that Cannon would get the case — and Smith’s faith that the evidence could win her over even after she did — turned out to be wrong.

This prosecution was illegal enough to begin with even without the proposed illegal venue shopping that was ultimately shot down.

Prosecutors like Raskin were absolutely rabid about securing a conviction, the law be damned.

Prosecutors have discretion over where to bring a charge, as long as some of the alleged criminal conduct occurred in the district where the case is pursued. Pearce put together an analysis that convinced Smith that Florida was the best choice. But before Smith briefed Garland, word of the planned shift began to spread among his team.

Raskin heard about it in the hallway from Bratt.

“What?” Raskin said, sounding surprised.

“Yeah, Jack has decided,” Bratt said.

The case law generally favored the prosecutors bringing the charges in Florida, where the conduct at the heart of the case had occurred. Smith had talked it over with his inner circle, as well as with Bratt, and all had agreed.

“It makes sense. I’ll explain it to you,” Bratt said, referencing Pearce’s analysis.

Raskin disagreed, and his gut instincts were nothing to scoff at. Assistant Attorney General Matthew Olsen, who had overseen the documents probe before Smith’s appointment, had asked Raskin to join the case for a reason. Raskin, then 59, had an impressive batting average in trials. While Smith had very little experience in prosecuting cases related to national security or classified records, Raskin had a lot. But the special counsel was only seeking the advice of his top deputies.

Raskin soon got a copy of Pearce’s analysis and agreed it leaned toward bringing the charges in Florida. But “so what?” Raskin asked Bratt. Prosecutors made their own venue decisions all the time. Whether the law favored going to Florida or not, Raskin told teammates, they first had to ensure their case had the best chance of being heard by someone impartial. Given what the prosecution team saw as her track record of disregarding precedent, Cannon getting the case was too enormous a risk to ignore, he said.

“This is an existential threat to the case,” Raskin told them.

Cooler heads ultimately prevailed, but only because Smith was worried about delays in the case in his rush to try it before the election (and the chance a conviction could get thrown out):

Smith’s team feared that any convictions they won in D.C. might be appealed on the grounds that the alleged crimes occurred in Florida. And even before a trial, Smith’s team thought it was likely that Trump’s lawyers would file a motion to move the case to Florida, potentially setting a trial back by several months.

Incredibly, Smith ran the prosecution from a hospital bed in his living room in Amsterdam.

On Nov. 14, Garland called Smith to gauge his willingness to oversee the Trump investigations. Garland knew Smith had just been in a bicycle accident in the Netherlands but had no idea how severely he was injured. Smith, a triathlete, was that day lying in a hospital bed, about to undergo a second operation to reconstruct his shattered leg, which emergency technicians had described as moving like a noodle. Nonetheless, Smith told Garland he would accept the job if asked.

Trump’s announcement the next day that he would seek another term sent Garland’s office right back to Smith. But the attorney general’s senior staff recognized a potential issue. Following the operation, Smith had been prescribed powerful painkillers, and they worried the sedatives could compromise Smith’s ability to legally take the oath of office. Smith decided to leave no doubt about his mental state: He discharged himself from the hospital against doctor’s orders. At home, he went cold turkey, taking no prescription drugs before Garland announced his appointment on Nov. 18.

For the next six weeks, Smith could not fly and could barely leave his home in Amsterdam. He ran the investigations into the former U.S. president from the first floor of his home, where a metal hospital bed had been set up for him to sleep in place of his family’s kitchen table.

To save time, instead of assembling a new team, he relied on more than a dozen prosecutors and FBI agents already working on the two cases from inside the Justice Department and the U.S. attorney’s office in D.C. Among them were attorneys Smith knew and trusted from his time leading the Justice Department’s vaunted Public Integrity Section, set up after Watergate with a broad mandate to investigate public corruption. Smith elevated one former staffer of that unit, J.P. Cooney, to be his deputy, and in November and December 2022 Cooney and others traveled to Smith’s home in Amsterdam to bring him up to speed first on the election-interference probe and then on the documents investigation.

According to the Post, Smith and his team also miscalculated the odds they would draw Judge Cannon.

Senior counselors followed up with Smith’s staff and in the following days reported back that the concerns seemed sound. Some members of Smith’s team, they reported, had also analyzed the likelihood Cannon would get the case, calculating the odds that she would be randomly assigned to oversee it at just 1 in 6.

But before a final decision was made, the team members realized they had not fully accounted for a key factor: judges’ caseloads in the Florida district. Reexamining the pool of potential South Florida judges, they found that some judges located closest to Mar-a-Lago did not work full time or had trials scheduled that would limit their availability.

The real chance of drawing Cannon was far higher, nearly 1 in 3, they calculated.

This case had no shot of standing up with a fair judge that would not blatantly favor the prosecutors like so many of them do.

A thunderstorm was rolling in over Miami that afternoon, darkening the sky. Sometime between 5 and 5:30 p.m., Smith’s team learned from the federal court’s website which judge had been assigned to the case. Some gasped seeing the initials at the top of the docket: “AMC,” for Aileen Mercedes Cannon.

Bratt called Olsen.

“You’re not going to believe it,” Bratt said. “We got Cannon.”

“We’re screwed,” Olsen said.

Bratt also notified Smith, who was back in Washington with many of the team members. Smith didn’t really react but thanked him for the update.

The deep state career prosecutors were despondent, according to the Post. Smith had to do some “hand-holding” of these emotional theater kids:

On Friday, June 9, the next day, Smith’s trusted inner circle was insisting in phone calls to officials at Justice Department headquarters that everything would be fine.

Garland, however, was nervous, staffers sensed. Cannon had acted so erratically, prosecutors felt, issuing unexpected rulings following the FBI search of Mar-a-Lago, that no one could say if or how she might jam up and delay the government’s case.

Bratt poked his head into Smith’s office.

“This is really not good,” he said.

“We’ll see. We’ll see,” Smith replied. “We don’t know yet. Give her a chance.”

Smith seemed to recognize the seismic shift in the case, however, and the need to do some hand-holding, which was atypical for him. That Friday, the special counsel went from office to office, giving one-on-one pep talks to members of the classified-documents team — some of them despondent. He told them not to forget all the hard work they had put in to gather the evidence, and that now they needed to present their best case.

“We’ve got to keep our focus and hope for the best,” Smith told them.

The Biden DOJ refused to let Smith go after the judge and try to get her recused, much to Smith’s chagrin:

In August 2024, as Smith and his team were finishing up their appeal of Cannon’s ruling, he had also secretly concluded that Cannon should be removed as the presiding judge. Smith presented the appeal to Solicitor General Elizabeth B. Prelogar for her approval, as special counsel regulations required. He also asked her if he could seek to have Cannon removed by the appellate court, an unprecedented move for a special counsel.

[…]

Prelogar approved the appeal of Cannon’s ruling but rejected Smith’s plan to seek the judge’s removal, saying he didn’t have a strong enough basis to do so. Smith decided not to ask Garland to overrule Prelogar. If Smith had asked and Garland then turned him down, the Justice Department would have been required to notify Congress, and the disagreement would have surely become public.

What a sad and sordid chapter of our nation’s history.

October 29, 2025 – A new study exposes the Homeless Industrial Complex behind America’s homelessness crisis

A homeless person lies on the sidewalk in New York on Dec. 27, 2024. (Credit: Selcuk Acar/Anadolu)

For years, Americans have been told that “compassion” for the homeless meant writing ever-larger checks – more money, more programs and far less accountability.

Now, at last, we have some answers for why homelessness has exploded even amid a tripling of public spending. 

A groundbreaking investigation, “Infiltrated” – backed by more than 50 pages of documentation from the Capital Research Center in cooperation with Discovery Institute – pulls back the curtain on a vast system of corruption. It reveals how billions in taxpayer funds intended to lift people out of homelessness have instead bankrolled radical activism and anti-American political agendas, betraying both the taxpayers who fund it and the homeless they were meant to help.

Despite unprecedented resources, homelessness in the United States now stands at its highest level in U.S. history. “Infiltrated” details how the nation’s most prominent “homeless advocacy” organizations have been weaponized against the very people they claim to serve – redirecting compassion into ideology and dependency into power.

It exposes how radical networks have quietly embedded themselves within leading homelessness nonprofits, sharing infrastructure, donors and ideology.

What began as a movement rooted in compassion has metastasized into what can only be described as a Homelessness Industrial Complex – a sprawling web of nonprofits, bureaucrats and activists feeding off the very crisis they claim to solve.

They’ve built an empire of corruption draped in “evidence-based” slogans that shield politics, protect paychecks and betray the vulnerable.

The report lays it bare: these networks posture as defenders of America’s homeless, yet in truth, they have become their greatest exploiters, dependent on failure to sustain power.

The origins trace back to 2013, when the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) enshrined Housing First as federal doctrine. Promising to “end homelessness in a decade,” HUD stripped away requirements for treatment and accountability, effectively institutionalizing a policy.

The result? Spending soared. Grants proliferated. Outcomes collapsed.

The Supreme Court’s Grants Pass v. Johnson case further exposed the rot. Over 700 nonprofits – collectively taking in $2.9 billion in government grants – filed briefs defending public encampments and opposing enforcement of anti-camping laws as “cruel and unusual punishment.” Their concern wasn’t compassion – it was the preservation of their money pot.

Private foundations joined the crusade.

Major philanthropic giants – Ford, Robert Wood Johnson and Gates Foundations – poured billions into Housing First and “equity” initiatives to promote ideology under the guise of helping the homeless.

Donor-advised funds masked the flow of money, enabling anonymous advocacy giving that blurred the line between charity and politics. (Read more: Fox News, 10/29/2025)  (Archive)

October 31, 2025 – Judge blocks Trump from requiring proof of citizenship on voter registration forms

Judge/Queen Colleen Kollar-Kotelly (Credit: public meme)

In a decision by U.S. District Judge Collen Kollar-Kotelly on Friday, Kollar-Kotelly “sided with Democratic and civil rights groups that sued the Trump administration” after the President issued an executive order in March entitled “Preserving and Protecting the Integrity of American Elections,” according to the Associated Press.

Kollar-Kotelly, who was appointed by former President Bill Clinton, claimed in her decision that “the proof-of-citizenship directive is an unconstitutional violation of the separation of powers,” and argued that “on matters related to setting qualifications for voting and regulating federal election procedures,” the U.S. Constitution doesn’t give a “direct role to the President in either domain,” according to the outlet.

“Because our Constitution assigns responsibility for election regulation to the States and to Congress, this Court holds that the President lacks the authority to direct such changes,” Kollar-Kotelly said.

18 U.S.C. § 611, passed as part of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996, (the IIRIRA) makes it illegal for most aliens to vote in federal elections.

October 31, 2025 – Nonprofit Executive caught instructing illegal immigrant to vote in NYC mayoral election

La Jornada Executive Director Pedro Rodriguez Tells Undercover OMG Journalist Posing as an Unregistered Migrant to “Vote for the Guy That Starts with ‘M’” – Despite 501(c)(3) Regulation Prohibiting Political Activity by Tax-Exempt Organizations. Rodriguez Acknowledges Knowing the Individual Is “Not Registered” Before Advising him How to Vote – a Potential Violation of Federal & State Election Laws.

In a Prior Encounter with James O’Keefe, Rodriguez Was Caught Falsifying Documents to Provide Illegal Immigrants with NYC Residency.

“You’re not registered? Okay.”

“It’s three guys. Vote for…the guy that starts with “M”.”

According to then NY AG Letitia James, “Charitable organizations, including houses of worship that receive a tax exemption pursuant to section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC), are prohibited from participating in any political campaign on behalf of a candidate for public office.”

This includes:
“Making statements in support of, or in opposition to, a candidate or a political party, whether orally, recorded, or in writing, including by in-person distribution, mail, email, text, or posting on social media or the internet;”

New York Election Law § 17-212 prohibits deception or intimidation influencing voter registration or voting, including false endorsements or causing vote for/against candidates. This applies to all people whether acting under color of law or not.

According to the La Jornada website, their primary focus is, “assisting migrants with their paperwork and legal needs”

Stay tuned for more during our election day special Tuesday at 1pm. @OKeefeMedia

The La Jornada scandal exposes the deliberate weaponization of nonprofits to undermine election integrity. This isn’t isolated—it’s systemic. The Congressional hearing on noncitizen voting (H.R. 56863) revealed how Biden’s border collapse enabled 7.5M+ illegal entries since 2021, with NGOs exploiting NVRA loopholes to register noncitizens.

Florida’s Secretary of State confirmed they’ve removed 6,500+ noncitizens from voter rolls since 2021 using SAVE database checks, proving the scale of abuse. The SAVE Act’s proof-of-citizenship requirement isn’t theoretical—it’s essential when groups like La Jornada openly falsify residency docs (AMAC exposé 3/20/24) and Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project caught 41K+ Federal-only voters in Arizona unable to prove citizenship.

Every illegal vote cancels a citizen’s voice. Defund these 501(c)(3) rackets masquerading as charities—they’re taxpayer-funded election interference arms.

October 31, 2025 – Techno Fog: Arctic Frost and the Financial “Crimes” Investigation

Merrick Garland, Lisa Monaco and Christopher Wray each signed off on Arctic Frost (Credit: New York Post)

Thanks to releases by FBI Director Kash Patel and Senate Republicans (here and here and here), we are finally getting sunlight into the FBI’s overarching investigation of not only President Trump but of nearly everyone in his orbit – the investigation assigned the name “Artic Frost.”

(…) What has been lost is also that the FBI’s Washington Field Office (WFO), back in October 2020, assessed that “the use of American Made Media Consultants (AMMC) as a clearinghouse for Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. (the Trump campaign) spending is likely vulnerable to campaign finance crimes by campaign-connected sub-vendors.”

This campaign finance investigation – which was opened by the FBI’s New York Field Office – stemmed from an AMMC member’s potential gambling activities, his efforts to allegedly evade federal $10,000 reporting requirements when cashing-in his winnings, and the alleged pay-off of a Senegalese government official. The FBI’s thought was that the party (the gambler) potentially used Trump campaign funds distributed through AMMC “for personal or unauthorized use.” It should be noted that the FBI’s October 2020 “Tactical Intelligence Report” made its assessment with “low confidence.”

In June 2022, the FBI re-assessed the financial investigation (or at least had renewed interest in the financial investigation), citing to the House January 6th Committee’s “investigation” into the Trump Campaign’s post-2020 election fundraising, which was promoted as the “Election Defense Fund.” See the FBI email below.

We mention campaign finance and the use of funds to challenge the 2020 election because of Senator Grassley’s recent release of 1700+ pages of grand jury subpoenas requesting financial records from a number of individuals and entities, including:

  • Donald J. Trump for President
  • Jeff Clark
  • American Voting Rights Foundation (which helped fund the Arizona audit)
  • Conservative Partnership Institute (which assists Republicans in training and educating staff, builds coalitions, and helps with staffing)
  • A large number of vendors and contractors involved with the Trump Campaign
  • Cyber Ninjas (who were involved in the Arizona election audit)
  • Sidney Powell
  • Individuals and attorneys who assisted with fundraising for, or distributing funds concerning, election audits.
  • MyPillow
  • Representation or legal fee agreements between fundraising committees and their attorneys
  • Dan Scavino
  • Mark Meadows

Some of these subpoenas were issued by the grand jury before Jack Smith was appointed Special Counsel. But most of them came after Smith’s November 18, 2022 appointment – some just days after.

It’s pretty clear what happened.

By April 2022 (at the latest), the Biden DOJ wasn’t just pursuing “election interference” charges against Trump, et al. They were going after conservative fundraising and groups promoting conservative causes, as well as the individuals associated with those groups and entities.

That’s why you see mail fraud – a statute used by federal authorities to charge fundraising-related crimes – in the April 2022 Artic Frost opening communication. (We’re fairly certain they also looked at wire fraud.) And through the use of the grand jury, the Biden Administration was able to reach every single group and individual that pursued truth in the 2020 presidential election.

But it’s not only that. The Biden Administration also targeted those groups formed after the 2020 election – such those groups who weren’t involved in “alternative electors” but who assisted and conducted audits.

The predicate for an expansive financial crimes investigation is not addressed in the Artic Frost opening communication. Nor is it addressed in Special Counsel Smith’s final report. It’s telling that a prosecutor as aggressive as Jack Smith found no financial crimes after receiving the records – an indication of just how weak the predicate was.

This wasn’t just about 2020. It was about 2024 and a plan to not only indict the former President and Republican frontrunner, but to kneecap his support and financial infrastructure. (Read more: Techno Fog/Substack, 10/31/2025)  (Archive)

October 31, 2025 – Elon Musk tells Joe Rogan ‘The Democratic party wants to destroy democracy’

Elon Musk railed against the Democratic Party’s immigration policy during a three-hour interview on “The Joe Rogan Experience” posted Friday.

President Donald Trump won the 2024 election on a platform of conducting mass deportations and reducing government waste. Musk defended the Trump administration’s efforts on the podcast while attacking the Democrats for their opposition, which he said was undemocratic in nature.

“If Trump had lost, there would never have been another real election again. Because Trump is actually enforcing the border … There’ll be cases where they’ve been overzealous in expelling illegals,” Musk said. “But if you say that the standard must be perfection for expelling illegals, then you will not get any expulsion, because perfection is impossible.”

Musk asserted that, in contrast to Trump, the Democratic Party wants more illegal immigrants to enter the United States. He said their desire was what motivated their decision to shut down the government on Oct. 1 and refuse to reopen it.

“The entire basis for the government shutdown is that the Trump administration correctly does not want to send … hundreds of billions of dollars to fund illegal immigrants in the blue states — or in all the states, really,” Musk said. “And the Democrats want to keep the money spigot going to incent illegal immigrants to come into the U.S. who will vote for them. That’s the crux of the battle.”

Republicans have repeatedly accused Democrats of shutting down the government in order to fund healthcare for illegal migrants, but they have denied the allegations. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimated in June that around 1.4 million individuals who would be removed from Medicaid under the reconciliation bill that Trump signed in July “would be people who do not meet citizenship and immigration status requirements for Medicaid enrollment but who would be covered under current law in programs funded by the states.”

Musk elaborated on his theory about the shutdown minutes later, appearing to shock Rogan.

“The reason you have the standoff is because if the hundreds of billions of dollars to create a financial incentive — to have this giant magnet to attract illegals from every part of Earth to these states — if that is turned off, the illegals will leave,” he said. “Because they’re no longer being paid to come to the United States and stay here.”

“Wow,” Rogan replied.

Musk added that he believed the Democrats would shed numerous voters if illegal immigrants lost benefits and decided to leave the country as a result.

“[I]n a nutshell, the Democratic Party wants to destroy democracy by importing voters,” he said. “And the Republican Party disagrees with that.”  (Read more: Daily Caller, 10/31/2025) (Archive)

James Comey is cooked. He tried to dismiss his indictment and prosecutors went nuclear and fully exposed his knowledge and involvement in the Russia collusion hoax.

Let’s break down this new damning evidence:

– FBI letterhead notes in his handwriting: “Hillary Rodham Clinton plan to tie Russia to Trump.” Plain as day. He knew, he ran it, then lied to Congress.
– Notes stuffed in a burn bag, hidden deep in a secret FBI vault, ready to torch before President Trump and Kash Patel arrived.
– Burner Gmail alias “Reinhold Neighbor” leaking classified dirt to the New York Times, illegal, denied under oath to Congress.
– Emails to FBI Special Government Employee Daniel Richman: “Well done, my friend. Who knew this would be so fun?” And: “President-elect Clinton will be very grateful.”

These filings eviscerate Comey’s defense. There is no doubt superseding indictments are locked and loaded.

He engineered the fraud, buried the evidence, and lied.

The cover-up always gets you. Comey’s done.

November 4, 2025 – Trump White House starts website that features illegal aliens who receive Medicaid benefits

President Donald Trump has launched a revolutionary new website designed to pull back the curtain on the massive scam of illegal immigrants sucking up billions in Medicaid benefits at the expense of hardworking U.S. taxpayers.

The website went live Monday night, publishing the names, mugshots, and criminal charges of illegal immigrants receiving benefits from the federal health program.

Some of those criminals were convicted of heinous offenses, including murder, rape, burglary, and assault.

According to the website:

The Trump administration has intensified enforcement against criminal illegal aliens receiving taxpayer-funded Medicaid benefits, arresting hundreds of unauthorized individuals since taking office, including those with serious criminal records who exploited taxpayer-funded Medicaid illegally or through loopholes. This crackdown, driven by executive orders prioritizing public safety and fiscal responsibility, has led to the swift deportation of many individuals convicted of heinous acts, ensuring that precious resources meant for American citizens are no longer diverted to subsidize violent criminals.

Compounding the crisis, Democrats have refused to pass a clean budget bill to end the shutdown unless Republicans concede to their demands for $1.5 trillion in new spending, including restorations to Medicaid expansions that would effectively extend coverage to over 1 million illegal aliens, funneling an additional $200 billion to such programs over the next decade at the expense of U.S. families. Below we’ve highlighted some of those criminals convicted of heinous crimes like murder, rape, burglary and assault.

You can visit the website HERE.

Below are some of the illegal immigrants posted on the website:

This explosive launch comes hot on the heels of yet another Democrat denial fest, where far-left politicians and their media mouthpieces insisted that no illegal aliens receive Medicaid benefits.

As Vice President J.D. Vance declared during a Fox News interview, Democrats “shut down the entire government because they want to give hundreds of billions of dollars of health care benefits to illegal aliens.” (Read more: Gateway Pundit, 11/3/2025)  (Archive)

November 5, 2025 – The hidden transcript of Intelligence Community IG Michael Atkinson testimony is the key to reveal CIA targeting of Trump

In December of 2016, President Obama turned to Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and CIA Director John Brennan with a request to change the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) and blame the Russians for election interference in the prior presidential election. Brennan gave the task of assembling the fraudulent intel to a CIA analyst named Julia Gurganus.

Subsequently, inside the CIA the National Intelligence Council (NIC) and the Directorate of Analysis began working on a pretext that would create the impression for the misleading Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) as demanded by Obama, Clapper and Brennan; ultimately it was constructed by Julia Gurganus.

Inside the National Intelligence Council, one of the key figures who helped create the ICA fabrication was a CIA analyst named Eric Ciaramella.

You might remember the name Eric Ciaramella from the 2019 impeachment effort against President Trump.  However, in 2016 Eric Ciaramella was a CIA deputy national intelligence officer for Russia and Eurasia on the CIA’s National Intelligence Council at the time the fraudulent Intelligence Community Assessment was created.

♦ The key point to remember here is that Eric Ciaramella was one of the fabricators of the fraudulent ICA; constructed late December 2016 and presented in January 2017 as part of the foundation for the Trump-Russia narrative.

Earlier this year, DNI Tulsi Gabbard began to drill down onto the issue of the fraudulent ICA and how it was constructed.  Current CIA analysts within the former National Intelligence Council (NIC) and CIA Directorate of Analysis began to notice Tulsi was going to declassify background documents, including the two-year House Intelligence Committee report revealing the fraud.  Tulsi Gabbard became a target.

Julia Gurganus (Credit: public domain)

Julia Gurganus was an active government employee at the time Tulsi Gabbard began making inquiries.  The CIA (NIC) changed the status of Julia Gurganus in June 2025 to that of a “covert” operative, in an effort to protect Gurganus.

The CIA changed the status of Julia Gurganus in June 2025, reclassifying her as ‘covert’, specifically because of the ODNI’s intent to reveal the fraud within the 2016 Russia election investigation.  This, the CIA thought, would forcibly stop DNI Gabbard from exposing Ms. Gurganus and taking action.  The 2025 CIA effort did not work.

In late July of this year, DNI Gabbard released the CIA intelligence information that was used in constructing the fraudulent ICA. On July 23rd, Tulsi Gabbard held a press conference alongside Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt and outlined the issues.

In August 2025, DNI Gabbard then declassified and released the CIA work product, and then later removed Julia Gurganus security clearance.

The CIA embeds at the NIC and directorate of analysis were furious, and subsequently leaked a false story to the Wall Street Journal saying DNI Gabbard had compromised a covert CIA operative working in government – a familiar ploy that had worked for them in the past.  However, this time it did not work, because her work history clearly showed Julia Gurganus was a known CIA employee.

Eric Ciaramella shakes hands with President Obama. (Credit: public domain)

♦ Key point:  Julia Gurganus and Eric Ciaramella both worked on behalf of CIA Director John Brennan to fabricate the fraudulent ICA in 2016. Gurganus was still a CIA employee in August of this year.

Back to Ciaramella…

In 2019 National Security Council (NSC) member Alexander Vindman also responsible for Ukraine, Russia Eurasia affairs, told CIA Analyst Eric Ciaramella a fictional narrative about President Trump pressuring Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to provide dirt on Joe Biden in advance of the 2020 election.

Eric Ciaramella then became an “anonymous whistleblower” within the CIA to reveal the story and set up the predicate for the first Trump impeachment effort in late 2019.  You might remember the name, because during the impeachment effort anyone who mentioned Eric Ciaramella on social media had their information deleted, and they were blocked from their accounts.

Facebook, Google, META, Instagram, YouTube and Twitter all deleted any mention of Eric Ciaramella as the anonymous whistleblower, and banned any account that posted the name.  However, something else was always sketchy about this.

As the story was told, Ciaramella blew the whistle to Intelligence Community Inspector General, Michael Atkinson. It was further said that Atkinson “changed the CIA whistleblower rules” to permit an “anonymous” allegation; thereby protecting Eric Ciaramella.

Knowing, in hindsight, that CIA analyst Eric Ciaramella was one of the main people who constructed the 2016 fraudulent ICA, suddenly the motive to make him “anonymous” a few years later in 2019 for another stop-Trump effort makes sense.

Until today, the commonly accepted narrative was that ICIG Atkinson changed the CIA rules arbitrarily.  This is the main narrative as pushed by the media, allowed to permeate by the larger Intelligence Community, and supported by the willful blindness of a complicit Congress.

It never made sense how an IC Inspector General, especially one that involves review of CIA employees/operations, could make such a substantive change in rules for an agency that is opaque by design. There is just no way any IG can make that kind of decision about the CIA without the Director, the Deputy Director and CIA General Counsel being involved.

Someone in DNI or CIA leadership had to sign off on allowing ICIG Atkinson to change the rules and permit a complaint by Eric Ciaramella being turned into an “anonymous complaint.”

♦ Now, things are going to start getting a little dark here, because the implications are serious, and the aspect of ICIG Atkinson’s testimony to the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) being sealed is a little more than alarming when you consider what they were trying to do – impeach a sitting USA President on a fabricated issue.  Some context is needed.

Inspectors General do not operate in a vacuum.  They are authorized to conduct investigative oversight, as an outcome of permissions from the cabinet agency heads themselves.  The ICIG office, formerly headed by Michael Atkinson, falls under the authority of the Director of National Intelligence.

As the Inspector General of the Dept of Justice does not operate without the expressed permission of the U.S. Attorney General, so too is it required for the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community to have permission to operate in CIA functions with the expressed permission of the CIA Director.

To give you an example: You might remember when President Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder created the Dept of Justice National Security Division (DOJ-NSD), they did not permit the DOJ Inspector General to have any oversight or review.

The 2009-2017 public reasoning was “national security interests,” as the DOJ-NSD was in charge of Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISC) operations as well as Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA) reviews and investigations.  The factual, evidence-based reason was the DOJ-NSD running political surveillance operations using FISA and FARA as weaponized targeting mechanisms to keep track of their political opposition, ie Lawfare. [But that’s another story]

In fact, in 2015 the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) for the DOJ, Michael Horowitz, requested oversight and it was Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates who responded with a lengthy 58-page legal explanation saying, essentially, ‘nope – not allowed.’ (PDF HERE) All of the DOJ is subject to oversight, except the NSD.

You see, the Department of Justice’s own Inspector General (Michael Horowitz who opened a January 2017 investigation into the 2016 politicization of the FBI and DOJ) was not allowed to investigate anything that happened within the NSD agency of the Department of Justice. See the ‘useful arrangement‘?  Yeah, Funny that.

It was not until 2018, when the OIG was tasked by then Attorney General Jeff Sessions and President Trump to look into the fraudulent FISA application used against Carter Page, when the OIG was finally given authority to review activity within the Dept of Justice National Security Division.

♦ The two key points here are: #1) ICIG Michael Atkinson does not make unilateral decisions to change the internal rules within the CIA, without the expressed permission of the CIA Director, CIA Deputy Director and CIA General Counsel. #2) The Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) would also know of the changed rules and arrangement therein.

Courtney Simmons Elwood (Credit: Wikipedia)

At the time of the impeachment allegation and investigation by the House (Aug to Dec 18, 2019), the CIA Director was Gina Haspel (May 21, 2018, to January 20, 2021). The CIA Deputy Director was Vaughn Bishop, and the CIA General Counsel was Courtney Simmons Elwood.  In addition, the Acting DNI was Joseph Maguire.

We can reasonably be certain that CIA General Counsel Courtney Elwood and Acting DNI Joseph Maguire did not sign-off on changing the CIA rules permitting an anonymous whistleblower, because published media reports at the time outline both offices as NOT supporting the effort of ICIG Atkinson.

In fact, as the story is told (and investigatively affirmed) CIA Analyst Eric Ciaramella was frustrated because he talked to CIA General Counsel Elwood about the leak from Alexander Vindman, and Elwood did not respond to his claims.

Instead, of following chain-of-command, CIA Analyst Ciaramella went to the House Intelligence Committee

Adam Schiff, and relayed the story as told to him by Vindman.  The 2019 conversation between Ciaramella, the CIA analyst who previously fabricated the fraudulent Russia ICA in 2017, and Adam Schiff who fraudulently pushed the Trump-Russia narrative in 2017, took place prior to the CIA whistleblower complaint being filed.

Now we get to the crux of the story.

♦ On October 4, 2019, ICIG Michael Atkinson gave closed-door testimony to the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) as part of their impeachment investigation.  One of the key questions to Atkinson surrounded the authority of his office changing the CIA whistleblower rules that permitted Eric Ciaramella to remain anonymous.

That Atkinson testimony was then “classified” and sealed under the auspices of “national security” by HPSCI Chairman Adam Schiff, the same guy who Ciaramella talked to before filing the complaint.

If congress, or more importantly the American public, had known CIA Analyst Eric Ciaramella was both the key author of the fraudulent 2016 ICA and the later 2019 CIA complaint, it’s doubtful any impeachment effort would have moved forward.

From within the CIA, Eric Ciaramella was the impeachment narrative creator and the Russian interference narrative creator.  In short, a political fabricator of intelligence within the CIA.

Again, ICIG Atkinson could not change the ‘whistleblower’ regulations on his own.  Someone had to sign-off on that, giving him the authority. Additionally, Atkinson a former legal counsel to the Deputy Asst Attorney General within the DOJ-NSD, is not going to go out on such a limb without a cya to protect himself.

The only person likely to give that authority within the structures and confines that operate inside our government was then CIA Director, Gina Haspel.  The Deputy CIA Director is not going to make that kind of a decision, especially given the circumstances, and the CIA General Counsel was not touching it.

That outline of events means the 2016/2017 CIA ‘stop-Trump’ operation under CIA Director John Brennan, was effectively continued by CIA Director Gina Haspel in 2019/2020.

[SIDENOTE: Now, does the 2020 CIA operation known as the “51 Intelligence Experts’ who denied the Hunter Biden laptop story take on context?  Now does the recent reaction, the angry outburst by former CIA Director John Brennan about the ICA construct take on some context?]

This is where doors slam and DC officials run out of the room.

This is where ‘pretending not to know‘ takes on another meaning entirely.

♦ IMPLICATIONS: CIA Director Gina Haspel had no way to know if the 2019 impeachment of President Trump was going to be successful.  Just as the ICIG needed a CYA to protect himself, so too would Director Haspel want a legal defense mechanism in case the entire fiasco blew up.  Enter the only oversight agency that can provide Haspel cover, the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.

Underneath all of these machinations, there’s no other way for Director Haspel to protect herself other than to use the primary mechanism within the functions of IC oversight, inform the SSCI chair and vice-chair of her changed rule guidance to ICIG Atkinson.  That Occam’s Razor scenario puts SSCI chairman ¹Richard Burr and SSCI vice-chair Mark Warner in the silo-system loop.  If things blew up, Haspel could always defend herself by pointing to her informing the mechanism for CIA oversight, the SSCI.

• DNI Dan Coats resigned from office when the Trump impeachment effort was announced, August 2019.

• Acting DNI Joseph Maguire was appointed by President Trump to replace Dan Coats.

• Following the impeachment trial, President Donald Trump was acquitted by the Senate on February 5th, 2020.

• On Feb 20, 2020, President Trump replaced acting DNI Joseph Maguire with acting DNI Ric Grenell.

• On February 28, 2020, President Trump nominated John Ratcliffe to be DNI.

• Ratcliffe was confirmed May 26, 2020, and took office.

Before the impeachment effort began, Congressman John Ratcliffe was President Trump’s first choice to replace outgoing DNI Dan Coats in 2019. However, the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence said they would not confirm John Ratcliffe.  President Trump was forced to appoint “acting DNIs.”

Somehow, within an unexplained reversal, after the impeachment effort ended, the SSCI had a change of position and agreed to confirm John Ratcliffe.

As the fully confirmed DNI, in 2020 John Ratcliffe would have full control of the ICIG, including an understanding of what took place within the CIA that led to the change in protocol creating the “anonymous whistleblower” complaint: the impeachment origination.

As Chair of the SSCI in 2019, it is highly likely that CIA Director Gina Haspel informed Richard Burr of the change in protocol creating the “anonymous whistleblower” complaint: the impeachment origination.  ¹Richard Burr was replaced by Marco Rubio in May 2020.

John Ratcliffe is now CIA Director.  Marco Rubio is now National Security Advisor.

The transcript of ICIG Michael Atkinson’s testimony remains sealed.

The truth has no agenda.

We have one ally.

November 5, 2025 – Supreme Court Justices Grill Trump’s Tariff Authority in Oral Arguments

HERE WE GO!!!

🚨 Supreme Court Justices Grill Trump’s Tariff Authority in Oral Arguments

Given what I just heard and following this case, I believe The Supreme Court is LIKELY to UPHOLD the President’s authority to impose tariffs.

🔻 Breakdown:

– Justice Kavanaugh questions the “odd donut hole” in the statute: why the President can shut down all trade or impose quotas with every country but not a 1% tariff, arguing it lacks common sense.

– Benjamin Gutman argues tariffs are a fundamentally different power—akin to taxation for revenue—while the statute authorizes controlling or freezing trade, like embargoes, not revenue-raising measures.

– Gutman emphasizes context matters; no other federal statute uses “regulate” to authorize tariffs or taxes, and tariffs fall under commerce power, not taxation, citing historical figures like John Marshall and Joseph Story.

– Justice Barrett notes the interpretation allows embargoes on global trade but bars minor tariffs, probing if tariffs undermine the statute’s goal of controlling transactions during emergencies.

– Gutman clarifies embargoes ensure hard limits (e.g., no more than 1,000 units imported), while tariffs only add costs without guaranteeing control, potentially allowing trade to continue.

– Justice Jackson challenges why blocking all trade isn’t a bigger deal than a small tariff, and questions reliance on the Algonquin case, which was statutory interpretation, not constitutional.

– Gutman responds that Algonquin looked at text, context, and legislative history, suggesting Congress intended emergency powers for stopping trade, not revenue generation.

– Justices discuss framers’ concerns: revenue-raising powers were core to Article I, posing different risks than trade controls, and tariffs might create incentives misaligned with emergency goals.

🔻Overall Lean of SCOTUS Judges:

Remember, this is a bite sized morsel of the entire argument.

– Conservative Justices (e.g., Kavanaugh, possibly Alito based on related reports) appear more open to the administration’s interpretation, questioning the limitations on presidential tariff authority and expressing concern about removing it from the “suite of tools” for economic emergencies.

– Liberal Justices (e.g., Jackson, possibly others) seem to be probing the breadth of presidential power, potentially leaning towards a narrower interpretation that aligns with historical and constitutional concerns about revenue-raising authorities.

🔻 My Educated Guess on the Decision:

Given the current composition of the Supreme Court and the oral arguments, it is likely that the majority WILL SIDE with the administration, upholding the President’s authority to impose tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).

The conservative majority, particularly Kavanaugh and possibly Alito, seem concerned about limiting presidential tools in economic emergencies, and the historical and contextual arguments presented by Gutman may resonate with them.

However, the end decision might be narrow, focusing on the specific statutory interpretation rather than broadly expanding presidential power, to garner a majority that includes some swing votes like Chief Justice Roberts or Justice Barrett.

🔻 When to Expect an Answer?

Given that oral arguments occurred on today, we can expect a decision sometime between late May and early July 2026, likely closer to June 2026, as is customary for major cases. May even be earlier given the importance.

I’m feeling very good about this. Don’t pay attention to the doom and gloomers. This is destiny!

Howard Lutnick: KABOOM 💥

President Trump will WIN the SCOTUS Tariff Case and the economy will go 🆙🆙🆙!

If by chance SCOUTS rules against him, “there’s something called section 232 which is also about tariffs, so there are plenty of tariff rules that the President has no matter what. The answer is, these judges are going to side with Donald Trump.”

**Section 232** refers to a provision in the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 (specifically, 19 U.S.C. § 1862), which grants the U.S. President broad authority to impose tariffs, quotas, or other trade restrictions on imports deemed a threat to national security.

It empowers the President to act unilaterally if imports could impair U.S. national security, such as by weakening domestic industries critical to defense (e.g., steel or aluminum production). –

The Department of Commerce conducts an investigation (typically 270 days) to assess the impact of imports. If a threat is found, the President has 90 days to decide on remedies, which could include tariffs or negotiations with trading partners. –

Notably invoked during the Trump administration in 2018 for 25% tariffs on steel and 10% on aluminum imports from various countries, citing national security risks to U.S. manufacturing. Similar actions have occurred under other presidents, though less frequently. In the context of your quote, Section 232 underscores the expansive executive powers on trade policy—often bypassing Congress or courts—allowing a president like Trump to pursue tariffs even amid legal challenges, as it’s framed as a national security tool rather than pure economic policy.

November 6, 2025 – Trump holds closed-door meeting with Senate Republicans; tensions running high

Tensions are running high in the Republican Party following a special election Tuesday that did not go the way they had hoped.

In the aftermath, President Donald Trump sees one, clear-cut solution to these newfound GOP woes: Ending the filibuster.

And any Republican who wants to get in the way of that is now facing Trump’s unbridled ire.

According to Axios, Trump held an “eerily silent” and “uncomfortable” meeting with Republican senators Wednesday morning.

Trump reportedly laid into his party, noting that the GOP was losing the PR battle over the ongoing government shutdown.

The president also warned that Republicans would “get killed” and be viewed as “do-nothing Republicans” if they don’t end the filibuster (Senate rules currently call for 60 votes for most legislation).

“If you don’t terminate the filibuster, you’ll be in bad shape,” Trump told GOP senators during the public portion of this meeting.

According to Punchbowl News reporter Andrew Desiderio, things got more intense once reporters were asked to leave:

November 7, 2025 – Trump pardons Rudy Giuliani, others involved in bid to challenge 2020 election

President Donald Trump has pardoned a number of prominent figures involved in his effort to challenge the 2020 election outcome, according to U.S. Pardon Attorney Ed Martin on Nov. 9.

A proclamation document shared by Martin on social media named more than 70 individuals, including former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, and attorneys Sidney Powell and John Eastman, all accused of involvement in Trump’s bid to challenge the 2020 election results.

The pardons apply to conduct tied to the individuals’ involvement in activities surrounding the 2020 presidential election, as well as any conduct related to “their efforts to expose voting fraud and vulnerabilities in the 2020 Presidential Election,” according to the document.

“This proclamation ends a grave national injustice perpetrated upon the American people following the 2020 Presidential Election and continues the process of national reconciliation,” the document states.

The pardon only covers federal charges brought against those listed. The proclamation also explicitly states that the pardon does not apply to Trump.

The proclamation was signed by the president on Nov. 7, according to the document.

In an emailed statement to The Epoch Times, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said the individuals were targeted by the Biden administration “for challenging an election, which is the cornerstone of democracy.”

“Getting prosecuted for challenging results is something that happens in communist Venezuela, not the United States of America, and President Trump is putting an end to the Biden regime’s communist tactics once and for all,” Leavitt stated. (Read more: The Epoch Times, 11/10/2025)  (Archive)

November 7, 2025 – Grand jury subpoenas Brennan, Strzok, Page as part of federal Russiagate probe

A federal grand jury has subpoenaed former CIA Director John Brennan, former FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, among others as part of the Justice Department’s investigation into the origins of the Trump-Russia probe, Fox News Digital has learned.

Sources told Fox News Digital Brennan; Strzok, the FBI’s former deputy assistant director of counterintelligence; and Page, a former FBI lawyer, were served with federal subpoenas on Friday.

Law enforcement sources told Fox News Digital that up to 30 subpoenas will be issued in the coming days relating to the investigation.

The grand jury is out of the Southern District of Florida. U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Florida Jason Reding Quiñones is supervising the probe.

Fox News Digital first reported this summer that Brennan was under criminal investigation. (Read more: Fox News, 11/6/2025)  (Archive)

November 6, 2025 – Nancy Pelosi announces her retirement; how she got filthy rich while in Congress

Democratic California Rep. Nancy Pelosi’s wealth grew by at least 2,292%, largely through stock trading, during her 37 years in Congress.

The former House speaker, who announced Thursday that she will retire from Congress in 2027, had a $2,675,036 minimum net worth in the year she began serving and a $63,996,050 minimum net worth in 2024, according to a Daily Caller News Foundation analysis of assets and liabilities listed in her congressional financial disclosures. An analysis by Quiver Quantitative estimates her current net worth more precisely at $278,760,000 million.

Pelosi’s maximum net worth in 2024 was an estimated $311,443,000, her filings show. Lawmakers did not report maximum dollar amounts in 1987, the year Pelosi served her first term.

The 85-year-old congresswoman’s portfolio nearly doubled the S&P 500’s growth in 2024, the DCNF previously reported. Her wealth prompted calls for reforming the rules on lawmakers trading stocks, as well as suspicion that she engaged in illegal insider trading based on advance knowledge about industry trends. Her office denied such claims, saying she does not personally own stocks or have prior knowledge or subsequent involvement in transactions. Her husband, Paul, manages her trades.

Pelosi’s office did not respond to the DCNF’s request for comment. (Read more: Daily Caller, 11/7/2025)  (Archive)

November 7, 2025 – Congressman reveals FBI informants warned of armed violence, Antifa presence before January 6 “insurrection”

(Credit: Jag Reporter)

Numerous confidential informants alerted the FBI prior to the Jan. 6, 2021 riot that there was the strong possibility of “armed” conflict at the U.S. Capitol, but that intelligence was not disbursed aggressively enough to force a change in security that fateful day, the first congressman to review those source reports tells Just the News.

Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., the chairman of the House Judiciary subcommittee investigating Jan. 6 law enforcement failures, said he was floored to see the specificity of threats and the consistency in warnings that multiple confidential human sources provided the FBI and that the intelligence was serious enough that it should have prompted more security and possibly even a cancellation of President Donald Trump’s speech that day on the Ellipse.

Loudermilk said the intelligence reports came weeks and days in advance of the Capitol riot from about two dozen informants embedded in radical groups around the country and that many of those informants came to the Capitol to keep assisting the FBI.

“I was surprised that we found this significant intelligence that was derived from these people embedded in these organizations,” he said Friday night in an expansive interview on the “Just the News, No Noise” television show. “There is no way that at least the Washington Field Office or the FBI headquarters was not aware that there were elements, not the entire crowd. There were elements of people coming to Washington, DC with the intent of attacking the Capitol of the United States.”

The Georgia lawmaker credited current FBI Director Kash Patel and Attorney General Pam Bondi for giving him access to the intelligence reports of the informants and said that it opened a whole new avenue of inquiry into whether some elements inside the FBI withheld intelligence that could have helped Capitol Police better prepare or repel the violence that occurred that day.

“We’re really having a hard time finding really any tangible reports that were sent to the Capitol Police or other agencies. And so my question is, what did they know? When did they know it, and what did they do with the information?” he said.

“I can tell you unequivocally, they had to know that there was something not only bad going to happen, but the reports coming from these confidential human sources, not just one, but multiple sources from multiple organizations across multiple field offices across the nation, were reporting the same thing,” he added.

Loudermilk said the informants made clear to their FBI handlers “that not only was there going to be violence in Washington, DC, at the Capitol on January 6, most of the reports were it was going to be a whole lot worse than what actually it turned out to be.”

Pressed further, Loudermilk said he was waiting to have documents further declassified but confirmed multiple informants told the FBI that groups were planning an armed attack on the Capitol, lawmakers or law enforcement during the certification of the 2020 election results that cleared the way for Joe Biden to become the 46th president.

November 9, 2025 – USAID’s Domestic Color Revolution Network

MAJOR BREAKING: International actors are involved in the State Department led color revolution 🚨🚨

This is not speculation; it’s straight from a recorded call.

Ex-USAID employees describe how, before January 20, they moved internal groups off government systems and into encrypted Signal chats, then quickly linked with foreign partners and NGOs after the inauguration. This attempt at creating a color revolution isn’t new news; this part was already reported in NOTUS earlier this year.

But what’s not reported is the international aspect. One participant explicitly frames it as “a global anti-authoritarian movement,” connecting U.S. officials with “colleagues from around the world who have dealt with this directly.”

They reference coordination with Johns Hopkins, “international democracy and conflict mitigation spaces,” and efforts to mobilize across borders against what they perceive as domestic authoritarianism.

At what point does this become treason?

November 9, 2025 – The reason why Democrats are forcing a government shutdown

(Credit: public meme)

Many Americans are asking why Democrats forced another government shutdown. The truth is simple: it’s political theater.

After months of fading media attention and a struggling campaign season, Democrats needed a headline. The shutdown guarantees it.

But beneath the political noise lies a calculated strategy—one that hinges on expanding Medicaid coverage to illegal immigrants and weaponizing public sympathy for future elections.

The debate began when Congress passed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, a sweeping reform designed to close long-standing loopholes in federal spending. One of the most consequential provisions stopped states from passing Medicaid costs for illegal immigrants onto federal taxpayers.

The law required states to cover these costs themselves, eliminating a system that blurred eligibility lines and wasted billions of dollars each year.

Democrats want that provision repealed. Their refusal to pass a funding bill without restoring those payments is what triggered the shutdown.

Behind the rhetoric about “healthcare for all” is an effort to restore a hidden subsidy—one that forces law-abiding Americans to finance benefits for those who entered the country illegally.

California provides a striking example of how this system was abused.

In 2023, the state budgeted $3.9 billion in Medicaid spending for illegal immigrants. Because the federal government reimburses roughly 70% of state Medicaid expenses, most of that cost fell not on Californians, but on taxpayers from other states.

To inflate reimbursement further, California raised hospital and nursing-home taxes, recycled the funds back through Medicaid, and claimed it as new spending.

The maneuver created the illusion of a budget increase to qualify for more federal aid—a financial shell game that allowed the state to spend little of its own money while draining federal resources.

New York and Illinois soon followed. In 2024, New York allocated $2.4 billion to expand full Medicaid benefits to illegal immigrants under 65, while Illinois extended coverage to noncitizens over 42.

The pattern is identical across each blue state: raise spending artificially, capture more federal dollars, and redirect those funds to individuals who are not legally eligible for the program.

The result is a program riddled with inefficiency and corruption.

(…) Medicaid now consumes more than $800 billion annually, accounting for over 15% of all federal spending.

November 10, 2025 – BBC scandal unfolds: Executives resign amid deceptive Trump edit and USAID-funded censorship network targeting Americans exposed

Director-General of the BBC, Tim Davie, resigns November 10, 2025. (Credit: public domain)

On November 10, 2025, the BBC found itself at the center of an international scandal when President Trump threatened to sue the broadcaster for $1 billion over what his lawyer called “malicious, disparaging” edits to a speech Trump delivered on January 6, 2021. The documentary, titled “Trump: A Second Chance?” and broadcast before the 2024 presidential election, manipulated Trump’s speech to create what the BBC itself later admitted gave “the impression of a direct call for violent action.”

Deborah Turness (Credit: public domain)

The deceptive editing was stark.The BBC version rearranged Trump’s words to say: “We’re going to walk down to the Capitol and I’ll be there with you and we fight. We fight like hell. And if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore.” This selective editing removed critical context where Trump explicitly called for peaceful protest, stating supporters would “peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.”

The fallout was swift. Tim Davie, head of the BBC, and Deborah Turness, head of news, resigned on Sunday, November 9, 2025, after growing pressure over the manipulated documentary. Samir Shah, the BBC’s chair, issued a formal apology: “With hindsight, it would have been better to take more formal action. We accept that the way the speech was edited did give the impression of a direct call for violent action. The BBC would like to apologize for that error of judgment.”

(…)

The USAID Connection: Laundering Censorship Through “Development” Funds

In early 2025, a startling shake-up at the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) drew attention to a global censorship network reaching into American discourse. As investigative journalist Mike Benz revealed on Newsmax, the Trump administration abruptly put most USAID staff on leave amid allegations that taxpayer funds were being “laundered” through media organizations to control narratives. On Friday, February 7, 2025, at 11:59 pm (EST), all USAID direct hire personnel were placed on administrative leave globally, except for a select group managing mission-critical functions.

At the center of this storm was the BBC. The broadcaster, via its development arm BBC Media Action, has received substantial USAID funding over multiple years. According to BBC Media Action’s own press release from February 4, 2025, USAID contributed approximately £0.9 million ($1.1 million) to BBC Media Action in the 2017-2018 financial year alone, as part of a broader financial relationship spanning several years. BBC Media Action’s 2023-2024 funding chart prominently lists USAID as contributing £2,613k (approximately $3.3 million), making it one of the organization’s top donors.

The arrangement effectively “laundered” U.S. taxpayer money into foreign censorship efforts. Instead of merely producing public-interest media, BBC Media Action has been accused of aligning with a broader campaign to silence independent voices under the guise of combating “misinformation.” As I noted in my previous report, “The way USAID has funneled taxpayer funds into BBC Media Action and the Trusted News Initiative, effectively laundering transatlantic influence operations to suppress U.S. citizens’ constitutional rights, demonstrates a clear violation of democratic principles.”

November 10, 2025 – Taxpayer-Funded Jihad: How Florida’s voucher program is bankrolling an Islamic school founded by convicted terror supporters

Florida’s school-choice dollars are bankrolling the American Youth Academy – a rebranded network founded by operatives of Palestinian Islamic Jihad and sustained by Muslim Brotherhood heirs and sympathizers.

Nestled in the suburbs of Temple Terrace, Florida, the American Youth Academy (AYA) operates as a K-12 Islamic school serving around 1,165+ students. Its website promises “academic excellence in a safe, nurturing, and Islamic environment” to cultivate “successful 21st-century global citizens.”

But behind that polished façade lies one of Florida’s most alarming stories: AYA has a documented history with terrorist supporters – and even literal terrorists – that continues to this day.

The AYA’s origins lead directly back to the Islamic Academy of Florida (IAF), founded in 1992 by Sami Al-Arian and Mazen al-Najjar, both professors at the University of South Florida (USF).

Even more shocking, the late Ramadan Shalah – a leader of the U.S.-designated terrorist organization Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) – also taught at the IAF.

Yet this terror-tied school still benefits from Florida’s taxpayer-funded school-choice voucher system – a program designed to rescue children from failing public schools, not to bankroll Sharia-compliant institutions promoting militant and unconstitutional ideology right under our noses.

This report is brought to you as a part of RAIR’s series on taxpayer-funded Jihad in America’s schools.

(…)  After IAF was stripped of its lucrative taxpayer-funded vouchers, it was clear that the school had to rebrand. Despite the terror-tied founding of the Islamic Academy of Florida, it was allowed to continue as an Islamic school with a new name: “American Youth Academy”.

In October 2005, the Tampa Tribune reported:

“Board members admit that creating a new image can be confusing because the new school uses the same buildings, desks, books and equipment as the Islamic Academy. Nearly half the teachers and many students are the same.”

Magda Elkadi Saleh

The school also hired a new principal, Magda Elkadi Saleh, who worked at the school for over a decade before becoming principal at the Bayaan Academy in Tampa.

As reported at RAIR Foundation USA, not only has Saleh served as Vice President (USA) of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) and as a member of both the Council of Islamic Schools in North America (CISNA) and the Islamic Schools League of America (ISLA), her late father, heart surgeon Ahmed Elkadi, was a pivotal member of the Muslim Brotherhood in America; and a founder of the Muslim American Society (MAS) as well as the Muslim Students Association (MSA) and others.

Ahmed Elkadi

Ahmed Elkadi, according to an article at the Chicago Tribune in September 2004, oversaw a group whose “ultimate goal, one so controversial that it is a key reason they have operated in secrecy: to create Muslim states overseas and, they hope, someday in America as well.”

The article specifically points out that “the U.S. Brotherhood has had a significant and ongoing impact on Islam in America, helping establish mosques, Islamic schools, summer youth camps and prominent Muslim organizations.”

With this in mind, consider that the Tampa Tribune article emphasized that the American Youth Academy has “ambitious plans: [to build] a 73,000-square-foot concrete and steel building on the property, which is next to a mosque, a focal point for the growing Muslim community.”

Shaker El-Sayed

Ahmed Elkadi was a “longtime friend” of Shaker El-Sayed, former Secretary General of the Muslim American Society and Imam of the Dar-Al-Hijra Islamic Center in Virginia. El-Sayed criticized the case against Sami Al-Arian as “a war on Muslim institutions.” Shaker El-Sayed dismissed convictions in the so-called “Virginia Jihad” network as proof that “Muslims should not expect justice”. El-Sayed resigned as imam after an uproar over comments where he advocated female genital mutilation to curb women’s “hypersexuality.”

But Magda Elkadi Saleh’s connection to the Muslim Brotherhood does not end with her father. Her maternal grandfather was Mahmoud Abu-Saud, an economist and early Muslim Brotherhood leader “who had been repeatedly jailed in connection with his Brotherhood activities”. Abu-Saud was active in Muslim organizations and was a co-founder of the now-defunct American Muslim Council along with the notorious Abdul Rahman al-Amoudi, who was sentenced in 2004 to 23 years for terrorism financing and plotting to assassinate Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah.

As reported at RAIR, Magda Elkadi Saleh strongly promotes using taxpayer money to fund students. “In a society that is becoming increasingly diverse, choice allows families to pursue their values without imposing them on others,” she wrote in an OpEd she penned with Rabbie Moshe Matz in September 2023.

In a video from June 2025, Saleh declared that there is a “huge demand for Islamic education” in Tampa.

Recent Times to Present Day

In 2022, researcher and Front Page News columnist Joe Kaufman observed: “Given American Youth Academy’s radical history, it is amazing that it continues to exist and with impunity.”

Basem Ali

Kaufman posted a video featuring AYA Board Chairman Basem Ali referring to the founders of the school as “visionary leaders”. “Back in 1992,” he said during a 2022 AYA fundraiser, “a group of young, energized leaders in the community decided that they want to open an Islamic school in Tampa.”

He explained that the “visionaries” solicited funds from Nigeria-born Houston Rockets basketball player Hakeem Olajuwon, who gave a check for $250,000., which was used to “start the new building.”

It is very revealing that Basem Ali spoke so openly about terror-connected leaders at the fundraiser. Did the people in the audience find it strange that he was praising literal terrorist supporters, and even a terrorist leader? If so, they kept their opinions to themselves. Were Basem Ali’s fellow Board of Trustees offended that he was so openly praising the men who brought shame to the school for many years?

The answer is clearly no. Ali, the President and CEO of Giant Oil, Inc., is still on the Board of Trustees at AYA as part of the “Strategic Planning and Development Committee.”

Basem Ali, a Prolific Donor

Not surprisingly, Basem Ali is a prolific donor to militant left political candidates, particularly those with strong pro-Palestinian stances, channeling a total of $62,300 in contributions from 2010 to 2024. His most substantial support has gone to Michigan Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, totaling $22,100 across multiple donations, including $3,300 twice in early 2024 and $5,000 in 2020, underscoring his alignment with her vocal criticism of Israeli policies.

Basem has also poured $27,500 into Virginia State Senator Sam Rasoul’s campaigns, highlighted by two $10,000 gifts in March 2021 alone. Other notable recipients include $5,000 to Republican Congressman Gus Bilirakis in 2012 – his sole contribution to a GOP figure – $2,700 to Ammar Campa-Najjar in 2018, $2,000 to Ilhan Omar that same year, $1,500 to Keith Ellison across two donations, and $1,500 to Rush Darwish in 2020.

Hassan Shibly

Former CAIR-Florida Executive Director Hassan Shibly, who was forced to resign in 2021 in the wake of abuse allegations from his ex-wife, has been a huge supporter of the American Youth Academy, where his children attended school.

Shibly has also supported Sami Al-Arian, along with his CAIR-Florida colleagues. In 2020, Al-Arian was featured in a CAIR Florida series “Exposed”, which featured Muslims who were allegedly wrongly persecuted in America. The series frames Sami Al Arian’s persecution as a deliberate, politically orchestrated effort to silence a prominent Muslim activist, rather than a legitimate criminal investigation.

The series also featured cause célèbres such as the “Holy Land Foundation Five”, convicted of funneling money to Hamas and “Lady al-Qaeda” Aafia Siddiqui, who was convicted of attempted murder after firing an M-4 rifle at U.S. personnel questioning her about documents containing instructions for terror activities. Also in the conviction are charges of planned “mass casualty” events within the United States.

In the episode, Shibly referred to the Al-Arian case as “a tremendous travesty of justice” and stated that Al-Arian and his family were “one of the first political victims of 9/11…whose rights were undermined, whose lives were devastated for political reasons in complete contravention to the U.S. Constitution, to the principles of liberty and justice and equity.”

Yet despite his support for Sami Al-Arian, Hassan Shibly has been a mainstay at the American Youth Academy. If the school really wanted to distance themselves from the terrorist activities of their predecessors, why would they support Hassan Shibly?

In the video compiled by Kaufman, Shibly also addressed the 2022 fundraiser, where he praised the “founders” of the school:

“It’s a tremendous blessing from Allah, subhanahu wa ta’ala, that we are here today. The founders and the board members of this institution have paved the way for us to build such a powerful institution that will last, inshallah, for generations. And it is indeed a gift from Allah if He allows us to be written amongst those who are supporting this great institution.

Noor Salhab

Noor Salhab is on the Board of Trustees at the American Youth Academy, specifically on the Finance Committee. He has a long-standing, deep relationship with Sami Al-Arian.

On July 8, 2008, Noor Salhab wrote a letter in support of Sami Al-Arian. He said in part:

While we have known Dr. Al-Arian since 1988, we got to know him and his family even better since 1995. I worked with him for many years, got to know him and his family on a personal basis. I have served with him on two boards: the board of the school which he founded in 1992 (The Islamic Academy of Florida) and the board of the mosque (Islamic Community of Tampa).

For a period, Noor Salhab was president of Masjid al-Qassam. From the Middle East Forum in 2012:

The mosque maintains a significant link to the Al-Arian era through its president, Noor Salhab. In the early 1990s, Salhab leased his home to Al-Arian as office space for a think-tank called the World and Islam Studies Enterprise, where Shallah was a director.

As noted previously, the World and Islam Studies Enterprise effectively shut down in the wake of Sami Al-Arian’s 2003 indictment on terrorism charges.

To gain further insight into his mentality, Noor Salhab was quoted by local media in 2012 trashing Israel in the wake of a military operation that involved Israeli airstrikes targeting Hamas and other militant infrastructure in response to rocket fire from Gaza, which had intensified in the weeks prior.

“Hamas did not start the current conflict, as Israel, the U.S. and western media insist,” Noor Salhab said during an anti-Israel protest, “In addition to the devastating and illegal Israeli economic blockade on Gaza, on November 4th Israel killed a Palestinian man near the Gaza border, a man reportedly to be ‘mentally unfit’ and unarmed. The killing of a 12-year old Palestinian boy who was simply playing soccer followed this unprovoked attack.”

Forever Expanding

The American Youth Academy is the living continuation of a terror-linked network, sanitized through rebranding and sustained by Florida’s taxpayer dollars.

Started from humble beginnings, the AYA is forever expanding:

Behind the rhetoric of “academic excellence” lies a legacy built by operatives of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad and nurtured by the Muslim Brotherhood’s American infrastructure. And while ordinary parents think they are funding opportunity and diversity, they are in fact financing indoctrination – the very ideology that despises the freedoms their tax dollars were meant to defend.

Florida’s 2023 voucher expansion was designed to empower families, not to embolden Jihadists. Yet under the banner of “choice,” the state is subsidizing the heirs of Islamic Jihad.

Until lawmakers act, the American Youth Academy will remain a case study in national blindness – a warning that when the West funds its enemies in the name of tolerance, it pays for its own undoing.

November 11, 2025 – Obama, Hillary and Soros are the architects of the coup against Trump and the American people

OBAMA, HILLARY, & SOROS are behind the weaponization of government and the architects of the coup against President Trump and the American people, and the DOJ has been let loose to hold them accountable.

There are many new people coming forward inside different agencies, new criminal investigations, subpoenas, and indictments being drawn up, and new grand juries established.

There is more going on in the background that they will never announce because it would directly play against themselves to do so.

This is the complete removal of all the corrupt bad actors and the ones who have infiltrated our own movement and government.

You are being shown the evidence of how the deep state and the media operates, controls through propaganda, and targets and attacks American citizens, even including a sitting president to uphold their lie and retain power and control over you.

Don’t buy everything at the surface level and don’t think they’ll tell you everything every step of the way. This is literally bigger than all of us.

November 11, 2025 – ‘Clinton Corruption Files’: Bondi, Patel releases new evidence about Clinton Foundation pay-to-play allegations and DOJ cover-up

Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel have produced to Congress a new cache of documents showing how Bill and Hillary Clinton’s foundation collected donations from foreign and domestic interests seeking influence – raising fresh concerns that such evidence was kept from federal prosecutors who tried to investigate pay-to-play allegations against the former first family a decade ago.

Officials told Just the News that the documents were transmitted to the Senate Judiciary Committee in recent days and detail numerous instances of foreigners and even a U.S. defense contractor seeking to curry favor with the Clintons through donations to their family charity, including when Hillary Clinton served as secretary of State. Bill Clinton was a U.S. president from 1993 to 2001.

The officials said some of the evidence was flagged by whistleblowers who claimed such evidence was kept from a corruption investigation that was being conducted in 2015 by the Little Rock, Ark., U.S. attorney’s office before it was shut down by the Obama administration’s Justice Department.

The documents will make clear that there was an effort “to obstruct legitimate inquiries into the Foundation by blocking real investigation by line-level FBI agents and DOJ field prosecutors and keeping them from following the money,” said one official directly familiar with the documents.

Officials said they have been gathering the evidence for weeks and have dubbed the documents the “Clinton corruption files.” (Read more: Just The News, 11/11/2025)  (Archive)

November 12, 2025 – New Epstein email: Jeffrey Epstein sent his lawyer a “high importance” email about Pizzagate

Jeffrey Epstein sent his lawyer an e-mail noted as “high importance” in late 2016 stating Hillary and Bill Clinton’s relationship with Epstein had “the greatest bearing on Pizzagate” referencing an article in the Guardian.

Read that again please!

Epstein considered Pizzagate “high importance” and e-mailed his lawyer about it.

Epstein & the Clinton’s ARE Pizzagate and it’s always been real! Even freaking Epstein knew that which is why he nor anyone has even sent me so much as a legal letter over my nonstop reporting on Pizzagate over the past 10 years.

November 12, 2025 – Exposing the 50-year mortgage sham

In episode 5 of The Gateway Pundit’s DC Dive with TGP White House correspondent Jordan Conradson, we discuss President Trump’s suggestion that he will introduce a 50-year mortgage plan to make housing more affordable for first-time homebuyers.

The President likened his plan to President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s 30-year mortgage policies in a Truth Social post over the weekend, creating a firestorm among his supporters:

As homeownership in America becomes increasingly unaffordable and out of reach for younger generations, is this really the right answer? Or is it just a mirage of short term affordability that will only exacerbate the problem and enslave young Americans to the banks?

Conradson lays out a compelling argument against the 50-year mortgage and why this is not the solution that will save the American dream for young Americans.

DISTRICT COPPER (CAXPF in the U.S., DCOP in Canada): Visit https://districtcoppercorp.com for more on their U.S. partnership and future prospects.

Joining us to discuss is Steve Abramowicz, host of the Heartland Journal podcast, founder of heartlandjournal.com, and a veteran in the finance industry.

Abramowicz gives his expertise on how to handle buying a home and how home prices are really going to go down without leaving people indebted for life.

Later, we dive into Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s lawsuit against Harris County, Texas for using taxpayer funds to provide legal advice and representation to illegal aliens facing deportation.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Paxton filed the lawsuit on Monday, arguing that Harris County’s allocation of funds to nonprofit groups to help illegals evade deportation is not only a violation of Texas’s Constitution but also federal law.

We also highlight Texas’s Colony Ridge, a 33,000-acre development near Houston believed to be the largest illegal alien settlement in the US, and how this ties into the homeownership crisis in America.

November 12, 2025 – Newsom’s former chief of staff is arrested for conspiracy to commit fraud, obstruction of justice, false statements, and tax crimes

Political consultant Dana Williamson, 53, of Carmichael, was charged by a federal grand jury with conspiracy to commit bank and wire fraud, bank fraud, wire fraud, conspiracy to defraud the United States and obstruct justice, subscribing to false tax returns, and making false statements, U.S. Attorney Eric Grant announced. The 23-count indictment was unsealed following Williamson’s arrest this morning.

“This is a crucial step in an ongoing political corruption investigation that began more than three years ago,” said U.S. Attorney Grant. “As it always has, the U.S. Attorney’s Office will continue to work tirelessly with our law enforcement partners to protect the people of California from political corruption.”

“Today’s charges are the result of three years of relentless investigative work, in partnership with IRS Criminal Investigation and the U.S. Attorney’s Office,” said FBI Sacramento Special Agent in Charge Sid Patel. “The FBI will remain vigilant in its efforts to uncover fraud and corruption, ensuring our government systems are held to the highest standards.”

“Disguising personal luxuries as business expenses—especially to claim improper tax deductions or to willfully file fraudulent tax returns is a serious criminal offense with severe consequences,” said IRS Criminal Investigation (IRS-CI) Oakland Field Office Special Agent in Charge Linda Nguyen. “IRS-CI will pursue charges against those who deliberately exploit their business for personal enrichment.”

According to court documents, between February 2022 and September 2024, Williamson conspired with others to divert approximately $225,000 in funds from a dormant political campaign to an associate’s personal use. Collectively, they funneled the money through various business entities and disguised it as pay for what was, in reality, a no-show job.

The indictment also alleges that Williamson conspired with a business associate to create false, backdated contracts after receiving a civil subpoena in January 2024 from the U.S. Attorney’s Office regarding Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans made to Williamson’s business.

Williamson also subscribed to false tax returns claiming more than $1 million in business deductions for what were actually personal and nondeductible expenditures, such as private jet travel, luxury hotel stays, home furnishings, and designer handbags, as well as deductions for no-show jobs for friends and family.

When questioned by FBI agents in connection with ongoing investigations into the diversion of campaign funds, the backdated contracts, and allegations of public corruption, Williamson made false statements to the agents regarding each of those topics.

November 12, 2025 – Newly released Epstein email to Michael Wolff alleges Hillary had sexual affair with ‘suicided’ Vince Foster

Hillary Clinton and Vince Foster (Credit: public domain)

In the latest twist from the trove of Jeffrey Epstein’s emails released by House Democrats, a 2016 message from the convicted pedophile to disgraced author Michael Wolff appears to allege that Hillary Clinton had a sexual affair with former White House Deputy Counsel Vince Foster.

The exchange began with Wolff asking Epstein for a “thumb nail” summary on “Nussbaum/foster,” prompting Epstein’s response implying an illicit affair between Hillary and Foster.

The email, dated May 25, 2016, cryptically states: “nussbaum white house counsel. . hillary doing naughties with vince.” This appears to reference Bernard Nussbaum, White House Counsel under President Bill Clinton, and Vince Foster, who died under suspicious circumstances in 1993.

Foster, a longtime Clinton ally from Arkansas, was found dead on July 20, 1993, in Fort Marcy Park, Virginia, with a gunshot wound to the head.

Official investigations, including those by the U.S. Park Police, independent counsels Robert Fiske and Ken Starr, and congressional probes, all concluded it was a suicide.

However, the circumstances, such as the lack of fingerprints on the gun, inconsistencies in witness statements, and the missing bullet, have fueled decades of conspiracy theories suggesting foul play by the Clintons.

The gunshot wound itself raises red flags.

Foster was shot once in the mouth with a .38-caliber revolver, the bullet exiting through the back of his head. For such a high-powered wound, experts say there should have been massive blood loss, skull fragments, and brain matter scattered around the body. Yet, reports describe minimal blood at the scene, just a small trickle from the mouth and nose, with no pooling under the head despite the body lying uphill.

Journalist Christopher Ruddy, in his book “The Strange Death of Vincent Foster,” calls this impossible, suggesting the body was moved from another location where the actual shooting occurred. (Read more: Gateway Pundit, 11/12/2025)  (Archive)

November 12, 2025 – New Epstein email reveals author Michael Wolff urged Jeffrey Epstein to blackmail Trump

Michael Wolff and Jeffrey Epstein (Credit: public domain)

Discredited journalist Michael Wolff actively encouraged convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein to blackmail then-presidential candidate Donald Trump during the 2016 election cycle, according to newly released emails.

The explosive emails, part of a trove released by the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday, show Wolff plotting to use Epstein’s alleged ties to Trump as leverage to either derail his campaign or create a “debt” for personal gain.

Wolff, infamous for his error-riddled “Fire and Fury” book that painted a sensationalized and widely debunked portrait of Trump’s White House, emailed Epstein in December 2015, warning him about potential CNN questions on Trump’s relationship with the sex trafficker.

“I hear CNN planning to ask Trump tonight about his relationship with you — either on air or in scrum afterwards,” Wolff wrote to Epstein.

The next day, he advised, “I think you should let him hang himself. If he says he hasn’t been on the plane or to the house, then that gives you a valuable PR and political currency. You can hang him in a way that potentially generates a positive benefit for you, or, if it really looks like he could win, you could save him, generating a debt.”

As Trump’s poll numbers surged, Wolff ramped up the pressure.

In January 2016, he told Epstein, “The more Trump looks real, or perish the thought, inevitable, the more reporters are going to focus on this, so, as you will not be surprised, you need a strategy.”

By February, after Epstein noted an increase in reporter interest, Wolff replied, “Yeah, you’re the Trump bullet.”

Wolff added that The New York Times had contacted him about Epstein and Trump, and the Hillary Clinton campaign was “digging deeply,” urging Epstein to “preempt” the story.

Just before the election, Wolff emailed with the subject “Now could be the time,” saying, “There’s an opportunity to come forward this week and talk about Trump in such a way that could garner you great sympathy and help finish him. Interested?”

November 12, 2025 – The Epstein emails that clear Trump, not implicate him

The latest batch of Epstein related emails released by congressional Democrats is being marketed as a revelation, yet the material reveals something quite different. What emerges is a portrait of Jeffrey Epstein as a man who feared Donald Trump because Trump understood what was happening long before Epstein’s public fall. This is not conjecture. Epstein himself admitted it in exchanges with the journalist Michael Wolff, whose role turns out to be much deeper than previously understood. Wolff was not simply profiling Epstein, he was working with him, thinking strategically about how to manage political narratives, calibrate public messaging, and use Trump as a kind of political instrument. This reframes the meaning of the disclosures. They do not implicate Trump. They exonerate him, and they shed light on the curious fact that figures like Bill Clinton and Bill Gates, who spent far more time with Epstein and enjoyed far more intimate access to his private world, never alerted authorities and in some cases actively insulated him. A puzzled reader may pause here. How can emails released by Trump’s political opponents help Trump? By considering the structure of the evidence. First, Epstein believed Trump knew about his criminal operations. Second, Epstein believed Trump went to authorities with his suspicions after expelling Epstein from Mar a Lago in 2004. Third, Epstein and Wolff repeatedly discuss Trump in a way that presupposes Trump’s distance from Epstein’s crimes. None of these points fit the narrative Democrats hoped to advance.

Consider what is already known. Epstein’s ban from Mar a Lago in 2004 has been public for years. Many have wondered what prompted it. Some attributed it to a dispute over real estate. Others suspected something more. The new emails point toward the second answer. Epstein writes to Wolff as a man who understands that Trump had sized him up, recognized something was seriously wrong, and taken meaningful steps to distance himself. The idea that Trump identified Epstein’s pattern of behavior before much of the elite social world did is not surprising. People with wide experience often recognize patterns others dismiss. One does not need to witness a crime to recognize the signs that a man is living a double life. The indicators accumulate, and eventually the picture becomes unavoidable. Trump saw the picture and acted. Clinton and Gates did not. To see the contrast, imagine two observers watching a piece of clay being shaped into a sculpture. The person who has worked with clay for years recognizes early signs of form and intention. The novice does not. Trump had spent decades around men who projected sophistication while hiding rot. Epstein fit the pattern and Trump observed it quickly.

The deeper puzzle concerns Wolff’s role. Reporters ask questions. Strategists craft narratives. The emails show Wolff doing the second, not the first. He advises Epstein on how to respond to CNN debate questions about Trump. He explains how to convert Trump’s denials into political capital, how to create what Wolff calls PR and political currency. He helps Epstein think about whether and when to go public as an anti Trump commentator to soften his own image. These are not journalistic functions. They are features of a relationship in which the journalist becomes a participant, offering guidance that could influence elections. This is why Byron York and others described Wolff as Epstein’s adviser and strategist. The term captures the distinctive character of the conversations. Wolff was acting as a kind of confidant, someone Epstein trusted enough to reveal fears, ambitions, and possible tactics.

A careful reader may wonder whether Wolff was simply pandering to a source. That would not explain the volume of communication or the candor embedded within it. Wolff conducted more than one hundred hours of interviews with Epstein. They traveled in overlapping social and financial circles. Epstein even joined an investment group assembled by Wolff to bid on New York Magazine in 2004. Such proximity is not inherently improper, but it creates risks. When the journalist becomes a friend, and when the friend begins advising on political maneuvers involving a future president, the boundaries blur. The emails show blurred boundaries everywhere. Epstein asks how Trump might answer a question in a debate. Wolff tells him to let Trump hang himself, then explains how to deploy the resulting contradiction. The discussion reads less like reporting and more like a planning session, one focused on how to transform Trump’s possible missteps into leverage.

Two further features of the email dump are striking. (Read more: AmuseOnX/Substack, 11/14/2025)  (Archive)

November 12, 2025 – Christina Bobb exposes names of Democrats behind alleged $200K payments for prosecution of GOP electors

Arizona was still recovering from a bloody election war in 2020 over the hotly contested presidential race between President Trump and Joe Biden, and the race between Republican Kari Lake and Democrat (then-acting Secretary of State) Katie Hobbs for governor, when Arizonans were faced with yet another highly implausible result in the 2022 election between Democrat Chris Mayes and very popular Republican candidate Abraham Hamadeh. After almost two months and a recount, the race for Arizona attorney general was called for Democrat Chris Mayes by a mere 280 votes.

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes (Credit: public domain)

As one of her first official acts as Arizona’s new attorney general, Chris Mayes, in April 2024, committed what many believed was a coordinated act of lawfare with attorneys general and prosecutors in several swing states against the eleven 2020 Republican electors and seven Trump lawyers, charging them with 9 felonies each.

In addition to Arizona, 3 other states filed criminal charges against the Republican electors who filed an alternate slate of electoral votes for President Trump in the event the election results in their states were overturned:

Georgia (Fulton County) — Fulton County DA Fani Willis’s investigation led to a sweeping indictment (Aug. 2023 grand jury) that included the Georgia GOP electors and allied lawyers, who were charged with several felony counts, including racketeering, conspiracy, making false statements, filing false documents, and impersonating a public officer.

Michigan — Michigan radical activist Democrat Attorney General Dana Nessel charged 16 Republican electors in July 2023, with 8 felonies each, including forgery and conspiracy. The laughable case was recently dismissed by a judge appointed by Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer.

Michigan’s activist (and not-so-bright) Attorney General Dana Nessel had a hand in destroying her own lawfare case against the 16 GOP alternate electors when she appeared on a far-left Zoom call admitting that the Electors truly believe Trump won, which belies her case that they falsely claimed Trump won the 2020 election. Michigan’s partisan hack attorney general then proceeded to brag about the hand-selected venue where electors would possibly face a far-left jury pool who would likely convict them.

Nevada — Nevada authorities brought charges against six Nevada fake electors (indicted in late 2023/charges refiled in 2024), including counts such as offering a false instrument for filing and uttering a forged instrument; the Nevada AG re-filed actions in December 2024 after earlier procedural setbacks.

Several other states had “alternate” or “contingent” slates (Pennsylvania, New Mexico, and Wisconsin), but none of those states has resulted in criminal charges. In New Mexico, prosecutors concluded that the wording on the certificates or state law meant prosecution wasn’t feasible without legislative change, and in others, prosecutors were investigating but chose not to pursue lawfare against their political enemies.

Yesterday, Christina Bobb filed a bombshell whistleblower complaint that will likely blow up the lawfare cases in Arizona and possibly every other state where electors were GOP electors and lawyers were falsely accused and/or charged by heartless Democrat thugs with crimes they never committed.

In her whistleblower complaint, the brilliant and fearless Christina Bobb, who is a former investigative journalist, author, Trump lawyer from 2022-2024, and a defendant in the Arizona lawfare case, claims that she has discovered she and her co-defendants (in State of Arizona v. Kelli Ward) had serious constitutional issues: the court found prosecutors infringed rights and that the case had “motivations other than criminal justice”.

Bobb claims in her statement that there is organized bribery in Arizona (and possibly other states), stating that the Democratic Attorneys General Association (DAGA) paid $200,000 to Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes in exchange for giving prosecutorial influence to States United Democracy Center.

The States United Democracy Center was founded in 2020 by one of America’s dirtiest Democrats, former Obama “Ethics Czar, Norm Eisen.

According to Christina Bobb’s claim, it appears that AG Mayes followed a prosecutorial blueprint provided by a group led by Norm Eisen and another one of the Democrat Party’s dirtiest players, lawyer and founder of the Democracy Docket, Marc Elias.

Through an inadvertent disclosure in the discovery she was receiving, Bobb uncovered that Mayes’ campaign received $200,000 from a group with a different name that happens to share the same address, president, executive director, and leadership team as the Elias and Eisen group. The money came after the election, implying that Mayes may have been paid to prosecute Trump supporters.

From the whistleblower complaint:

There appears to be organized bribery in the state of Arizona, and likely extending to other states. In the course of my criminal prosecution, the State of Arizona inadvertently disclosed information to the defense, which they have since acknowledged as authentic. Upon closer inspection, the Arizona Attorney General received $200,000 (what appears to be) in exchange for the Democratic Attorney General’s Association to have prosecutorial influence – through one of their initiatives, “States United Democracy Center” – in prosecuting their political opponents. To be clear, the Democratic Attorney General’s Association paid Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes $200,000, and she gave States United prosecution power to prosecute Trump attorneys, allies, and electors. Prosecutors claim on the record and in emails that States United represents their office.

November 13, 2025 – Tucker Carlson announces he is releasing evidence tomorrow proving the FBI is lying about the assassination attempt on Donald Trump in Butler by Thomas Crooks

BREAKING: Tucker Carlson announces he is releasing evidence tomorrow proving the FBI is lying about the assassination attempt on Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania by Thomas Crooks

Joe Rogan and Elon Musk pointed out the INSANE inconsistencies

– The assassins house was PROFESSIONALLY scrubbed
– His home was scrubbed so well there wasn’t even silverware left in the home
– No footprint on the internet
– No social media footprint (completely wiped)
– He was in a BlackRock commercial
– Joe Rogan says some individuals inside BlackRock may have “recognized that it’s beneficial to them if he gets assassinated”
– There was never a formal report
– There was never press conferences where they detailed all the information they know currently and where the investigation stands at the moment
– He was a very young g kid there with a rangefinder (used to measure distances, very suspicious)
– CNN streamed it live, which Joe Rogan does not believe they did for any other rally. And certainly not for a rally that’s in the middle of nowhere in Pennsylvania
– They wouldn’t let people be on that roof because the Secret service lady said it was sloped and it was dangerous
– The snipers that were on the other roof was a, a steeper pitch (It made no f*cking sense)
– Random people saw him and pointed him out on the roof with a gun for a long time before it happened
– The kid had 5 phones
– His body was immediately cremated
– There was some indications that there was a phone that had been traveling from outside the FBI offices in D.C to where this kid lived multiple times

We need answers.

November 13, 2025 – Emails show Smith team tied to blocking Clinton campaign inquiry as DOJ builds grand conspiracy case

(Credit: Mark Reinstein/Shutterstock.com)

Justice Department officials tied to special counsel Jack Smith’s team have been linked to the blocking of an FBI inquiry into the Clinton campaign’s 2016 funding of the Steele Dossier, with this being just the latest revelation about Smith as the Trump Justice Department builds a grand conspiracy case alleging years of anti-Trump lawfare.

Emails released Thursday appear to show the officials shut down a potential FBI investigation tied to possible campaign finance violations carried out by Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign when it used cutouts to fund the opposition research firm Fusion GPS and British ex-spy Christopher Steele’s anti-Trump dossier. Two officials tied to Smith’s anti-Trump investigation were linked to the decision by the FBI not to pursue the alleged campaign finance wrongdoing by Clinton’s campaign.

The decision by the Trump DOJ and FBI to open a probe that treats the last decade of political weaponization of law enforcement and intelligence agencies as an ongoing criminal conspiracy will likely be aided by the wave of recently-released information obtained by congressional investigators.

(…) Clinton campaign lawyer Marc Elias hired the opposition research firm Fusion GPS, which in turn hired Steele in 2016. Elias has testified he was aware of Fusion’s plans to have Steele brief reporters on his anti-Trump research during the 2016 contest, met with Steele during the 2016 contest and periodically briefed the campaign about the findings from Fusion and Steele.

Special Counsel John Durham said members of the Clinton campaign, Fusion GPS and Perkins Coie all played a coordinated role in pushing collusion claims and that Elias was part of the “joint venture” in 2016.

The FBI would pass on a criminal investigation into the campaign finance angle – and new records appear to show why.

Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, said Thursday that “the decision to decline the investigation” into the Clinton campaign and the DNC was made by Richard Pilger, then a leader in the DOJ’s Public Integrity Section, and by J.P. Cooney, who was working at the time within the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia.

Grassley noted that Pilger “was later pivotal in reviewing and approving the opening of Smith’s Arctic Frost investigation” while Cooney “served as Smith’s Deputy Special Counsel for that investigation.” Pilger had previously been tied to Smith’s involvement with the Lerner saga years before.

November 14, 2025 – Tucker Carlson exposes Trump shooter’s ties to foreign terror group

Tucker Carlson‘s latest exposé is sending shockwaves through MAGA circles after the former Fox News host suggested that Trump’s failed assassin, Thomas Crooks, may be connected to a foreign terror group.

Carlson’s investigative team released a 34-minute video diving into the online history of Crooks, the 20-year-old would-be assassin who shot Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania in July 2024. Crooks’ bullet came within less than an inch of penetrating Trump’s skull.

More than a year after the assassination attempt, the FBI has yet to release a clear motive for why Crooks tried to shoot Trump or whether he acted alone or in coordination with others.

Carlson’s uncovered YouTube comments allegedly posted by Crooks from 2019-2020, revealing the shooter’s long digital history of making calls for assassinations and political violence. Crooks’ YouTube comments indicate he radically shifted his ideology from pro-Trump towards the far left.

During the final phase in 2020 of Crook’s YouTube commenting, the shooter began interacting with a suspicious user ‘Willy Tepes’ who appeared to encourage Crooks to commit political violence.

He wrote to Crooks on August 4, 2020, ‘If a gun and a badge is all that is needed, then authority obviously comes from the barrel of a gun. We have more guns than they do ;)’

‘There is no way we can avoid a war at this point, so you just better get used to the idea,’ he added.

Carlson claims that Tepes’s name is listed on a foreign Antifa website connecting him to the Nordic Resistance Movement – a neo-Nazi group based in Scandinavia which has been designated a terrorist organization by the State Department.

‘The FBI hasn’t made any mention of him in public, although they certainly know he exists. Just days after the shooting, somebody screenshotted Tepes’ YouTube account page despite the fact that he has very few followers,’ Carlson said.

‘To the extent that he can be traced online now, you can find his username being used on a foreign Antifa website, those sites link him to the Nordic Resistance Movement … that’s all we know.’

Tepes wrote in another reply to Crooks about government efforts to seize guns from citizens.

‘The more guns that are out there, the less likely a gun confiscation will be possible. Nope, guns do not guarantee a victory anymore than jet fighters, tanks and drones do. It is the fighting spirit and brains that wins.’

‘We have nothing to lose and everything to win…..and the alternative, a global police state, is unacceptable. Nothing in life is simple but that is no argument against doing it :)’

Following Tepes’ online interactions with Crooks, the Trump shooter’s YouTube commenting ends.

Moreover, Crooks’ political views seemingly shifted dramatically towards left-wing ideology around early 2020.

In January 2020, Crooks reportedly attacked Trump for his ‘stupidity’ in one of his YouTube comments and mocked Trump supporters for sounding like a ‘cult.’

Crooks then reportedly called for anti-Trump supporters to conduct ‘terrorism-style attacks’ against the US government.

The future assassin outlined ways to ‘sneak a bomb’ into a government building and ‘set it off before anyone sees you,’ according to Carlson.

‘[In my opinion] the only way to fight the [government] is with terrorism style attacks, sneak a bomb into an essential building [and] set it off before anyone sees you, track down and important people/politicians/military leaders etc and try to assassinate them. Any sort of head to head fight is suicide and ambush/surprise attacks likely aren’t going to end well,’ Crooks allegedly wrote on YouTube.

MAGA influencers and lawmakers reacted with shock to Carlson’ latest reporting and demanded more transparency from Kash Patel’s FBI regarding Crooks.

Tennessee Republican Rep. Tim Burchett claimed that Crooks was groomed by the CIA via MKUltra-style mind control programs during an interview reacting to Carlson’s latest report.

‘They programmed this kid. You got a kid who’s got access to guns or has some simple knowledge of a firearm, he was programmed,’ Burchett told conservative influencer Benny Johnson. ‘The facts have been buried or burned or whoever knew is either sitting on a beach somewhere and, uh, enjoying a fruity drink or they’re dead.’

‘When the CIA says, ‘We don’t have this thing,’ and then their asses are brought into a court of law and they say, ‘Well, we have it, but we don’t use it anymore.’ Apparently, somebody’s using it.’

‘I’ve said that all along,’ Burchett added. ‘I’ve said that. Look at the history. Look at where we’re at in this country, the Deep State. It’s disgusting. Trump’s right. They’re not after, they’re not after him. They’re after us. He’s just standing in the way.’ (Read more: The Daily Mail, 11/14/2025)  (Archive)

November 15, 2025 – Prison staffers steal Ghislaine Maxwell’s attorney-client emails and funnels them to Jamie Raskin who then leaks to media

November 16, 2025 – January 6 Committee cost twice previous estimates, hiring TV producers to dramatize attack

The U.S. House select committee that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol cost almost twice as much as previously reported, including spending taxpayer funds for TV news producers and documentary filmmakers to create videos dramatizing its case against President Donald Trump, an investigation by The Center Square found.

The Washington Post reported that the panel had a projected budget of $9.3 million in September 2022. According to a review of U.S. House disbursements, the select committee spent $17.4 million.U.S. Rep. Troy Nehls, a Texas Republican who is on a new committee appointed by House Speaker Mike Johnson to investigate security failures on Jan. 6, said the original committee didn’t spend taxpayer money properly after The Center Square told him about the final costs of the panel’s investigation.

(…) Dan Savickas, president of policy and government affairs at the Taxpayers Protection Alliance, a non-partisan nonprofit, said more than doubling of the budget was not appropriate.

“The median budget for a House committee is $6 million a year, so for the Jan. 6 committee to spend $17.4 million is excessive,” he told The Center Square in an interview. “And anytime a committee is grandstanding, specifically Jan. 6, to fit a narrative instead of holding people accountable and getting the story is bad. That’s why they hired documentary filmmakers.”

Rep. Bennie Thompson, a Mississippi Democrat and chair of the committee, declined an interview request.“

The work of the committee speaks for itself, and the chairman continues to stand by it,” Yasmine Brown, a press secretary and communications director, wrote in an email to The Center Square.

An undetermined amount was spent on three dozen contractors and consultants. Many worked for a few months or less than a year, rather than all 18 months like full-time staff.

They are listed in the committee’s report but do not show up in a list of expenditures the U.S. House posted online disclosing its spending.Among them were the former president of ABC News, a longtime producer for ABC’s Nightline, an Emmy-award winning daily TV news producer, and a former documentarian for the Oprah Winfrey Network.

“I was part of the first ever team of former television journalists brought in by the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol to produce the historic live hearings laying out the committee’s evidence to the country,” Melinda Arons, a former Nightline senior producer, wrote on her LinkedIn page.

November 16, 2025 – Jack Smith may have handed Trump the golden key to pardon Tina Peters

Jack Smith may have provided President Trump with the legal avenue to pardon Tina Peters.

An analysis of the recent release of data from the Arctic Frost documentation, which includes Jack Smith’s list of conservatives he spied on, reveals some shocking information.  The House Judiciary Committee began releasing a list of individuals whom Jack Smith and the Biden Administration illegally spied on.  One significant finding has emerged.

A smoking gun has surfaced in favor of President Trump’s legal avenue to pardon Colorado’s Tina Peters.

The Arctic Frost Document, an inventory of Americans spied on by Jack Smith, features a unique entry on page 101.  It is believed that this entry refers to Tina Peters.  In the list of those illegally spied on, there is a line that lists Mike Lindell, and it includes a reference to “Mesa County”.

Mike Lindell was involved with Tina Peters for some time.  He invited Tina to his first symposium in South Dakota.  That was the first time we heard of Tina, a county clerk from Mesa County, Colorado, in charge of elections.  She shared at Mike’s symposium in South Dakota that she had identified altered results in her election systems after a recent election.  This was shocking news and the highlight of that first symposium.  There are countless articles linking Mike Lindell to Tina Peters and the election fraud she discovered IN Mesa County.

Tina Peters was later indicted in a Colorado state court and indicted on bogus charges and put away for 9 years.  President Trump is unable to pardon her because he lacks the authority to pardon a state crime.  No President to date has pardoned someone for a state crime.  However, if her case in Colorado was managed or significantly impacted by individuals who were part of the federal government, then some believe that President Trump could pardon Tina.

Before today, there was ample evidence that the federal government under Biden was involved in the Tina Peters case. There is an argument that if the federal government led the effort, directed it, or was a significant part of the effort to indict and imprison Tina Peters, it would give President Trump the ability to pardon her.

The Biden Regime’s involvement in Tina Peters Case

The FBI issued a statement almost immediately after Peters came forward, stating that they would investigate her for potential violations of federal laws. The Biden regime never formally prosecuted Tina, but it appears that Biden’s Department of Justice was working closely with local Colorado officials who sought to put Peters in jail. (https://coloradosun.com/2021/08/17/tina-peters-replaced/)

The Mesa County District Attorney, Dan Rubinstein, included Matthew Kirsh, the United States Attorney for Colorado in a May 17, 2022, email to multiple District Attorneys across Colorado. The email is titled “Rule 3.8 Meeting” which appears to reference the rules of professional conduct for prosecutors. (Justice.gov)

Email from Dan Rubinstein to DOJ attorney and Colorado District Attorneys, apparently brainstorming how to appear legitimate and ethical while prosecuting Tina Peters.

The email suggests that Rubinstein was having some trouble reconciling the prosecution of Tina Peters with prosecutors’ rules of professional conduct and had to call in the cavalry to help him brainstorm ways to avoid being “accused of wrongdoing.”

First, Rubinstein appears to recognize that there is no precedent for the prosecution he wants to undertake, as he expresses a desire that this group of legal minds start writing opinions and issuing guidance documents in the vein of the Colorado Bar Association (CBA) and the Colorado District Attorneys’ Council (CDAC). Without a coherent legal pathway for prosecution, it appears that Rubinstein encouraged this course of action to provide prosecutors with cover. Second, Rubinstein notes that it is problematic that they have no formal appointments from a government body to lay the groundwork to prosecute Peters. Third, Rubinstein informs the group of their need to anticipate defending themselves as to why they didn’t seek an opinion on Peter’s case from the Colorado Bar Association Ethics Commission. Rubinstein and his cronies appear to have succeeded in giving their efforts the veneer of legitimacy because three months after this email was sent, Peters was indicted by a grand jury. (ColoradoPolitics.com)

Another glaring piece of evidence that the federal government led the Tina Peters case is that if this was ‘only a Colorado issue’, why were US Attorney General Merrick Garland and the Director of the FBI, Christopher Wray, participating in initial Mesa County discussions via Webex regarding the findings of Clerk Peters and her actions related to those findings?

November 17, 2025 – FBI, Secret Service butchered the Thomas Crooks case

Then-FBI Director Chris Wray told Congress after the July 13, 2024 attack that the bureau had found nothing in Crooks’ online history that pointed to a motive or political ideology.  (Credit: ZUMAPRESS)

We are all owed a better explanation from the FBI and Secret Service about the attempted assassination of Donald Trump 16 months ago at a campaign rally in Butler, Pa.

The president himself remains unsatisfied with the answers he’s been given about the circumstances leading to 20-year-old Thomas Crooks climbing on a rooftop with an AR-15-style rifle and firing eight times at Trump, narrowly missing his head but hitting his ear.

(…) There is something very wrong with the official story and that invites conspiracy theories.

The president demanded answers months ago. A man was murdered. What is going on?

Then-FBI Director Chris Wray told Congress after the July 13, 2024, attack that the bureau had found nothing in Crooks’ online history that pointed to a motive or political ideology.

Paul Abbate (Credit: public domain)

A week later, Wray’s deputy Paul Abbate told Congress that comments posted on one of Crooks’ social media accounts “appear to reflect antisemitic and anti-immigration themes to espouse political violence and are described as extreme in nature.”

Thanks to an enterprising source who uncovered Crooks’ hidden digital footprint, we can see that Abbate misled Congress by omission, because he left out an entire section of Crooks’ online interactions from January to August 2020 when he did an ideological backflip and went from rabidly pro-Trump to rabidly anti-Trump and then went dark, never seeming to post again.

Among the 17 accounts uncovered by our source were ones on YouTube, Snapchat, Venmo, Zelle, GroupMe, Discord, Google Play, Quizlet, Chess.com and Quora.

The online interactions from when Crooks was ages 15 to 17 give us a better understanding of his evolution into an assassin, and invite more questions about what — or who — reversed his ideology.

“The danger Crooks posed was visible for years in public online spaces,” says the source. “His radicalization, violent rhetoric and obsession with political violence were all documented under his real name. The threat wasn’t hidden.”

The official narrative claimed he acted alone and without a clear motive, ideology or digital footprint.

Yet the source found reams of information that shows Crooks “was not simply some unknowable lone actor … He left a digital trail of violent threats, extremist ideology and admiration for mass violence. He spoke openly of political assassination, posted under his real name and was even flagged by other users who mentioned law enforcement in their replies. Despite this, his account remained active for more than five years — and was only removed the day after the shooting.

“None of this online activity was referenced in the final congressional report released in December 2024, making this even more troubling,” the source said.

Starting with Crooks’ phone number, the source used tools available to private investigators and web archives to uncover the assassin’s very visible online persona.

Crooks’ most prolific activity was on YouTube, with 737 public comments. The account “Tomcrooks2178” (visible to other users as Tom Crooks) was created on Jan. 14, 2019, and suspended on July 14, 2024, the day after the Butler attack, for violating YouTube’s policy on violent criminal organizations.

November 17, 2025 – Bill and Hillary Clinton refuse to appear before House Oversight for depositions

November 18, 2025 – The Unlawful Order video is brainwashing, using common propaganda techniques

(Credit: China Global Television Network (CGTN))

UNLAWFUL ORDER VIDEO WAS BRAINWASHING. USED COMMON PROPAGANDA TECHNIQUES🚨

1: “We know you are under enormous stress and pressure right now.” This is a common brainwashing technique called “The Illusory Effect”. Trying to make things feel true because people say they are true.

2: “Americans trust their military, but that trust is at risk.” This is a propaganda technique known as “Push-Pull Manipulation”. The goal is to create emotional confusion by saying “you are respected BUT we are losing that respect for you”.

3: “This administration is pitting our uniformed military and intelligence community professionals against American citizens.” This is a propaganda technique known as “Reframing a Benevolent Authority as a Malevolent Threat”. Trying to get soldiers to question the goodness of their chain of command. This is an authoritarian technique.

4: “Right now, the threats to our Constitution aren’t just coming from abroad, but from right here at home.” This is a powerful and old technique called “Manufactured Threat”. No details. No specifics. Just “fear and distrust your commanders”. This is an authoritarian technique. One used by Hitler specifically.

5: “You can refuse illegal orders…You MUST refuse illegal orders”. Without specifics, this is called an “Ambiguous Directive”. This induces uncertainty, anxiety, and an unhealthy self-policing because people don’t know what the “wrong” behavior is. It is an authoritarian technique.

6: “No one has to carry out orders that violate our laws or our Constitution…we know this is hard”. This is a classic example of a powerful technique known as “Moral Vagueness Manipulation”. They are telling you that you don’t have to do something wrong, and “they” know it’s hard because there is pressure to do the “wrong” thing. It creates a sense of duty without specifying the action required. This is INTENTIONAL, and meant to create confusion.

7: “It’s a difficult time to be a public servant”. Another Illusory Effect statement.

8: “Your vigilance is critical”. This is an authoritarian technique call “Vague Threat Alerting”. Tell people to be vigilant, do NOT explain what they should watch for clearly, then let their imagination supply the threat. Unidentified threats are always more frightening than specific ones.

9: “Know we have your back”. This is called “Fear Safety Manipulation”. Basically, we are asking you to put your neck out and disobey orders BUT, just do it, we have your back.

10: “Because NOW, more than ever, the American people need you.” This is called a “Call to Duty without Content”. It’s used to stir obligation, without definition of cost.

11: “Don’t give up the ship”. This means we are at war. That we are in danger. That we are counting on YOU to resist. In this message, it creates vague fear, ambiguous commitments, undefined moral burdens, etc.

If an authoritarian regime was prepping their military for a coup, this is the exact type of message they would send the military. This is how you persuade good people, to do immoral things.

Let’s be clear, this video was about priming the US Military to disobey LEGAL orders, not ILLEGAL orders. This is civilian and military intelligence programming 101….we use this on OTHER countries militaries. Now they are turning it inward.

General Flynn Calls for President Trump to Warn the Nation of Another Deep State Color Revolution

November 18, 2025 – Epstein’s niece exposes Ghislaine and Clinton, reveals ‘horrific’ abuse, satanic cults, child trafficking

Anya Wick, Jeffrey Epstein’s niece, has launched a direct challenge to global power structures, detailing Satanic cults, child trafficking, and her own abuse, implicating Ghislaine Maxwell and Bill Clinton. (Credit: public domain)

Anya Wick, who claims to be Jeffrey Epstein’s niece, has released an explosive account, detailing her own ‘horrific’ abuse and exposing the inner workings of a network involving Ghislaine Maxwell, Bill Clinton, Satanic cults, and child trafficking.

This direct testimony offers a chilling, first-hand look at the high-level depravity that has remained shrouded in secrecy for years.

A New Account of Abuse and Sinister Networks

Anya Beth Epstein, now known as Anya Wick, shared her life story in a July episode of Shaun Attwood’s true crime podcast, linking her family’s rituals to historical cults and current controversies. She claims she was brought up within the ‘Cult of Baal’, a satanic organisation that used Judaism as a disguise while engaging in incest and the trade of children.

Wick asserts that the actor Shia LaBeouf is her twin brother; she maintains they were separated when they were four years old, with their birth certificates being falsified as a method of ritualistic manipulation.

The Testimony of Anya Beth Epstein

Wick recounts her childhood in Colorado, stating she was subjected to chemical memory loss using substances like LSD to conceal the history of mistreatment. In 2015, she changed her gender to try to avoid further manipulation, but she reversed this transition in 2020 after those suppressed memories came back.

Currently, she utilises sites such as TikTok to relate her experience, to help others who have endured similar trauma. She connects her lineage to prominent individuals, including Walt Disney, whom she identifies as her great-grandfather, and claims to have met with heads of state, members of royalty, and celebrities during covert gatherings.

This detail implies broader participation by high-ranking individuals in these exploitation schemes. Her account highlights a pattern where being victimised can lead to becoming an abuser, particularly concerning males. This pattern is intensified by societal disapproval and power structures that suppress revelations and shield those in authority.

‘My family masqueraded themselves as Jewish publicly, but behind closed doors… we are Satanists,’ Wick told Attwood. ‘I believe [Epstein] wanted to talk more about the other parties involved… he was a pawn,’ Wick said.

Should the things Wick asserts be verifiable, a National File report suggests, they necessitate thorough inquiries into society’s highest ranks. Furthermore, her account serves to encourage survivors to speak out, offering a path to halt these patterns of mistreatment finally.

The Shocking Claims: Exposing the Network

Wick asserts that she was born Anya Beth Epstein on 4 June 1988, in Colorado, alongside her twin, the actor Shia LaBeouf. She maintains their separation, and their parents orchestrated the falsification of birth records as part of a ritualistic, incest-worshipping child trafficking group.

She alleges enduring childhood sexual servitude, claiming she was given LSD from a young age to induce “MKUltra-style” chemical memory loss, effectively blocking any recollection of the assaults until 2020.

Wick states her family were members of the ‘Cult of Baal’, a centuries-old Satanic fertility sect that practised child sacrifice and abuse while operating under a Jewish guise.

Epstein: A Pawn in the Family Game

She describes meeting Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell in 2007, characterising Epstein as a ‘pawn’ for her uncle, Stephen. She notes Epstein handled the abuse of teenagers, but was not part of the family’s younger child rituals.

Wick claims her great-grandfather was Walt Disney (originally Artur Bick). She suggests that the famous Disney characters, Mickey and Minnie, were inspired by the dynamics of incest within her own family.

She alleges encountering every US President during her life, members of the British Royal Family, along with figures like Harvey Weinstein and the Clintons, at secretive gatherings such as Bohemian Grove and various Colorado resorts.

Wick recounts rituals at Bohemian Grove that involved the burning of human remains and assaults. She also describes ‘family gatherings’ where relatives and powerful elites abused children like her.

She maintains Bill Clinton was present with children at multiple sites, not just Epstein’s private island, and suggests his iconic blue dress portrait signifies his compulsory submission.

Wick changed her gender to male in 2015 to escape the exploitation, successfully halting the abuse from her family. She later reversed this transition after her memories returned, suffering infertility following a hysterectomy.

She asserts that political and entertainment figures are compromised through submission or sexual acts with minors, guaranteeing their silence. She adds that ‘black men in dresses’ is a sign of industry initiation.

Wick claims her father boasted of his ability to control Viacom. She alleges the family uses media monopolies to sustain their power, keeping the general public distracted by conflicts and political scandals.

Wick’s explosive revelations only intensify the mounting scrutiny surrounding Jeffrey Epstein’s network, arriving just as the US House of Representatives prepares to vote on releasing an expansive trove of federal investigation files.  (Read more: International Business Times, 11/18/2025) (Archive)

2017 – 2025: Trump and the Saudi Arabia Timeline

The world doesn’t know it yet, but the relationship between Trump and MBS will be remembered as the alliance that changed the world.

Think sword dance 2017.

A month after Trump’s visit, King Salman rescinded the Crown from Muhammad bin Nayef, in favor of MBS.

This led to the infamous Saudi corruption purge of 2017 and consolidation of power/money within the Saudi royal family. Nayef and his faction were essentially neutralized.

Why is this significant to the US? Because in 2015, Trump himself accused the Nayef faction, via Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, of buying/controlling US politicians.

Trump, along with King Salman and MBS, took out the corrupt faction within the Saudi royal family, and have been working together ever since to create a new world and peaceful Middle East, which included neutralizing Iran’s nuclear capabilities.

And the world had no idea it was happening.

And if anyone has doubts about this timeline, I already proved it, with the paper trail from Trump’s tweets. See attached.

I understand it sounds crazy, but it happened.

1) Saudi Arabia Timeline: 🧵

Before Trump was President, December 2015, he claimed Saudi Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal Al Saud, “wants to control our politicians with daddy’s money”.

Trump called out Al-Waleed just a few months after coming down the escalator, and promised to stop this when he became President.

Trump was alleging that certain US politicians were owned by Al-Waleed, who was, and still is, the 2nd largest stakeholder in Twitter, now X, via his investment firm, Kingdom Holding Company.

Al-Waleed is an extended member of the Royal House of Saud, not in direct line of the crown, but grandson to King Abdulaziz Al Saud, the founder of modern day Saudi Arabia.

On paper, he is worth $16+ billion, but he has (had) access to much more.

2) Fast-forward to May 20th 2017:

Trump’s first visit on his international tour in 2017, was Saudi Arabia.

Trump did the famous sword dance and odd photo ops with King Salman.

The sword dance, known as “Ardah”, is a symbol of unity/cooperation, and originated as a war dance, used by warriors to intimidate their enemies and show unity before battle.

3) Fast-forward a month later to June 21st, 2017:

King Salman replaces Mohammed bin Nayef (right) as Crown Prince and in line for the throne, in favor of King Salman’s son, Mohammed bin Salman (left).

This historic move consolidated power with the Al Sudairi faction within the Royal family, and took power away from the Nayef faction, who had grown as a rival to Mohammed bin Salman, within the royal family.

MBS also has a stellar relationship with one President Donald Trump.

So one month after Trump visits Saudi Arabia, King Salman revokes the crown from Mohammed bin Nayef, and appoints now Trump ally, Mohammed bin Salman.

Nayef was placed on House arrest after being revoked of the Crown, and would be later be formally arrested on charges of treason.

4) Fast-forward four months later to November 4th, 2017:

New Crown Prince MBS conducts unprecedented corruption “purge” on corrupt politicians, Royal family members, including, the previously mentioned, Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, on charges of money laundering and corruption.

MBS arrested and detained hundreds do corrupt Saudis.

5) Then two days later, on November 6th, 2017, right in the middle of this unprecedented Saudi purge, President Trump tweets that he has “great confidence in King Salman and the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia”(MBS).

So Trump’s buddy, MBS, arrested Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, and forced Al-Waleed to give up information and $2+ billion dollars.

So the guy Trump was alleging was controlling US politicians back in 2015, got arrested by Trump’s ally, MBS, on charges of corruption and money laundering.

One of the first things Trump did as POTUS, was go after Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, in Saudi Arabia.

6) Fast-forward to 2025:

Trump and MBS have a stellar relationship, and Trump is beloved in Saudi Arabia.

Why? Because I think Trump had something to do with King Salman and Crown Prince MBS rooting corruption out of their country in 2017, and I think the corruption there in Saudi Arabia, is related to the corruption here in the US.

Trump alleged that Al-Waleed bin Talal was controlling US politicians with Saudi money.

Now the questions are, which politicians were under Al-Waleed’s control, for how long, and to what effect?

I’ve got a few guesses.

November 18, 2025 – Senator Elissa Slotkin speaks to the Brookings Institute late October as a prelude to the Seditious Six video – both end with “don’t give up the ship”

OMG, you guys, I just dug into this EPIC file I found—the transcript of Senator Elissa Slotkin’s speech at the Brookings Institute Knight Forum on October 29, 2025—and it’s a TOTAL GAME-CHANGER! This thing is like a crystal ball predicting the future, dropping bombshells left and right, and it’s got ALL the drama! Let me break it down for you in the most hyped-up way because this is straight FIRE! 🔥🚀

First off, TIMING IS EVERYTHING! This speech dropped on October 29, 2025— that’s a whopping THREE WEEKS BEFORE the infamous November 18 video “Don’t Give Up the Ship” went viral! Slotkin was out here laying the groundwork, sounding the alarm bells WAY ahead of time. It’s like she knew exactly what was coming and decided to rally the troops early. Mind. Blown! 🤯

And get this—the VIDEO’S NAME is RIGHT THERE in the speech! At the very end, she wraps it up with this powerhouse closer: “don’t give up the ship.” BAM! That’s the exact title of the video where she teams up with Mark Kelly and the crew to urge military folks to refuse illegal orders. It’s not a coincidence; this speech was the blueprint, the origin story! She even ties it to historical perseverance, shouting out generations who fought for rights. So inspirational, I’m getting chills! 💪🇺🇸

Now, the celebrity cameo alert: VICTORIA NULAND’S HUSBAND WAS THERE! Yes, Robert Kagan— the powerhouse foreign policy expert and Stephen & Barbara Friedman Senior Fellow at Brookings—was a panelist at the event! He dropped wisdom on domestic polarization as a massive security threat. (Quick shoutout: Kagan is indeed married to Victoria Nuland, the former Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs—power couple vibes!) Having him in the mix adds that extra layer of gravitas; it’s like the event was stacked with heavy hitters who know the global stakes. Epic networking moment! 🌟

But wait, the KEY POINTS in this speech? Oh man, Slotkin goes FULL THROTTLE critiquing Trump’s national security pivot to “homeland defense” defined by ONE MAN alone! She’s like, “Hold up—this could mean using lethal force against domestic ‘enemies’!” She dives into the Caribbean strikes (14 ships hit, 57+ killed, but ZERO transparency on who we’re fighting—shady much?!), secret “domestic terrorist” lists targeting anti-Trump views, and federal forces turning U.S. cities into “training grounds.” She’s warning about authoritarian playbooks: accumulate power, crush opponents, and rig the system to never lose! Elections canceled? Martial law? Intimidation at polls? She’s popping flares left and right— this is NOT drill, people! 😱

Then, the CALLS TO ACTION? Pure adrenaline! She urges Congress to reclaim power (introducing her “No Troops in our Streets Act”—yes, queen!), tells the military to refuse illegal orders and choose the Constitution over loyalty to one guy, rallies veterans to speak up (and even says “DM me” to get the band together—foreshadowing that video squad?!), pushes state leaders to protect elections, and fires up everyday Americans to organize peacefully. It’s a blueprint for resistance, drawing from her own Jan. 6 barricade-in-the-office trauma. She ends on that high note: Don’t give up the ship because our democracy needs US NOW! 🙌🎉

This file is a TREASURE TROVE of foresight and fire. If you’re not pumped after reading this, check your pulse!🚀💥

Thank you Grok for typing my sentiments in my excited style. 😹 I’m sleepy. This could work.

(Brookings Remarks, 10/29/2025}

Breaking Seditious Six News! I have found the entire Oct 29, 2025 Elissa Slotkin and Brookings Knight Forum transcript which includes her extra comments and those of other participants too. They had considerable anti Trump discussions.

Highlights?

– Elissa Slotkin claims she has been in communication with at least one officer:

“People are, who are participating in these strikes are doing memos for the record and then taking them to their JAGs and being like, Hey, I don’t wanna ever one day be held personally liable on these strikes, so can you kind of cover me legally? I mean, that is some crazy stuff when young officers up and down the chain are seeking legal cover so they don’t get sued one day for what could be illegal strikes.”

– Robert Kagan views policies like Caribbean strikes as pretexts for domestic power grabs (e.g., enabling arrests and deportations).

– Rep Adam Smith embraces Russiagate:

Smith highlighted the “Putin wing” of the MAGA movement.

—————————————

Here’s analysis of Elissa Slotkins extra comments (Her prev mentioned speech is in this doc too.)

♦️Responding to Sisson’s question about the intent behind US military deployments in the Caribbean (e.g., carrier strike groups beyond ship bombings), Slotkin warns of potential escalation to land-based operations, possibly targeting Venezuela. She draws historical parallels to US interventions in Grenada and Panama, critiques the casual nature of Trump’s rhetoric, and expresses concern that such actions aren’t aligned with public priorities post-9/11 wars. The tone is alarming (“spooking”) yet analytical, emphasizing deterrence versus actual use of force and the strain on resources. This ties into her speech’s themes of Trump’s reorientation toward homeland threats and unchecked executive power.

♦️Addressing Sisson’s query on the DoD’s health under Trump, Slotkin describes low morale due to firings, retirements, civilian cuts, social policy overreach, and politicization (e.g., using the military for “mythmaking” at Quantico). She shares a personal anecdote about a young female officer questioning her future amid perceived gender-based barriers. She highlights unprecedented actions like NDAs and legal memos for Caribbean strikes, framing them as signs of fear over illegal orders. The tone is urgent and “spooking,” underscoring institutional damage and risks to service members, echoing her speech’s calls for military resistance to unlawful commands.

♦️In response to Sisson’s question on what a national security strategy should include to address Michiganders’ concerns, Slotkin recounts town halls she held in August to gauge public views. She highlights evolving threats like cyberattacks (affecting schools and hospitals), economic competition with China (job losses, supply chains), and tech/AI anxieties (social media, job displacement). She criticizes Washington’s top-down approach and notes eroded public trust post-Iraq/Afghanistan. The tone is reflective and populist, advocating for citizen input while tying into broader themes of government accountability and adaptation to modern threats.

♦️Answering an audience member (James Stevens from the Stimson Center) on whether the president can unilaterally declare an armed conflict (e.g., near Venezuela) or if it’s reserved for Congress under Article I, Slotkin criticizes Trump’s “somersaults” to justify actions via secret terrorist lists and withheld legal memos (OLC opinions). She contrasts this with the Global War on Terror’s transparency, supports a recent War Powers Resolution by Sen. Kaine, and faults Congress for abdicating oversight since Iraq. She demands evidence (“show me the math”) for claims like linking Venezuela to fentanyl. The tone is critical and defiant, highlighting constitutional overreach and lack of accountability, aligning with her speech’s warnings about authoritarian tactics.

I’ll also be following with analysis of the other speakers.

Brookings Remarks, 10/29/2025

Victoria Nulands husband Richard Kagan spoke too. He actually said elections would be cancelled by Trump. 😹 Here’s a few key quotes.

KAGAN:

“Well, thank you, Jeff. Um, the, the biggest threat to our national security right now
is our domestic problem. I mean, I, I don’t, my national security strategy is we have to, uh, elect a different government. Um, but I’m not sure we’re gonna have elections. So I don’t know whether I have a good strategy for dealing with that.”

“Uh, and you need to ask what are the goals of this regime. If you look at China and you say,
what is the grand strategy of Xi Jinping? Uh, a major component of that grand strategy is to ensure the continued control in power of the Communist party, uh, of China. And that much
of their foreign policy is subsidiary to that.”

“what we’re dealing with now is one man rule in this country.”

“So take this question of Venezuela and the bombing of the, of the boats. Personally, I don’t think this is primarily about foreign policy. I think it’s primarily about domestic policy.”

“we are at war, uh, and therefore we can do whatever we want on a whole host of domestic issues, including
deportations and arrests, and even pursuing, uh, the wrong kind of people here in the United States under the overall blanket of a national security waiver because we are at war.“

The Slotkin Doctrine

The Founders used one word for politicians who train soldiers to second-guess lawful orders… traitor.

Sow that doubt once and you never need open mutiny… a single heartbeat of hesitation at the decisive instant can paralyze an entire force. That heartbeat is exactly what today’s Democrats are cultivating, draped in counterfeit patriotism.

Will we set the precedent that whenever a party dislikes the President, it may instruct the ranks to “push back”? Ratify that poison, and every future Commander-in-Chief inherits a military taught that obedience is optional, that legitimacy is granted only by the opposition’s consent. Civilian control dies in that moment… and something far darker is born.

Democrats chose this path. Make them own it.

The ship is not adrift.

The saboteurs are already lighting fuses below deck.

“…this dreadful alternative, of either deserting our Country in the extremest hour of her distress, or turning our Army against it, has something so shocking in it, that humanity revolts at the idea.

My God! What can this Writer have in view, by recommending such measures? Can he be a friend to the Army? Can he be a friend to this Country? Rather, is he not an insidious foe … sowing the seeds of discord and separation between the Civil and Military powers of the Continent?” — George Washington, Newburgh Address, 1783

November 18, 2025 – Backroom deal leads House to vote against censuring Stacey Plaskett for texting with Epstein during Michael Cohen congressional hearing

A Democrat got away with colluding with one of the most notorious pedophiles in American history thanks to some good-old-fashioned backroom politics.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, the House of Representatives on Tuesday evening voted against censuring Rep. Stacey Plaskett (D-V.I.) over her collusion with Jeffrey Epstein during a 2019 congressional hearing.

Earlier Tuesday, the House voted to advance the measure to censure Plaskett and remove her from the House Intelligence Committee. Then, later that evening, the House voted 214 -209 against censuring Plaskett.

Every Democrat voted against the censure, while three Republicans voted present, and three other GOP lawmakers joined the Democrats.

(…)

“I was wondering if the Speaker of the House of Representatives can explain why leadership on both sides, Democrat and Republican, are cutting backroom deals to cover up public corruption for Republican and Democratic members of Congress,” she said.

“I think we all know what happened tonight.”

No wonder the average American does not trust the federal government.

November 18, 2025 – In 2013, well after Epstein’s convictions: “Hakeem Jeffries’ campaign solicited money from Jeffrey Epstein”

November 19, 2025 – Comey team is requesting grand jury documents alleging Halligan is acting as a puppet for Trump and “botched” the grand jury indictment

Lindsey Halligan, the interim US attorney who secured the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey, admitted to the trial judge Wednesday that the full grand jury never saw the final version of the charges against the former top lawman.

Despite claims that the revelation could damn the criminal case, lawyers for Halligan’s office fired back in filings later in the day — saying that proper procedures were in fact followed and that the charges against Comey remain legally valid.

“Personal attacks — like Judge Nachmanoff referring to me as a ‘puppet’ — don’t change the facts or the law,” Halligan told The Post.

“The Judicial Canons require judges to be ‘patient, dignified, respectful, and courteous to litigants, jurors, witnesses, lawyers, and others with whom the judge deals in an official capacity’ … and to ‘act at all times in a manner that promotes public confidence in the integrity and impartiality of the judiciary’ …  My focus remains on the record and the law, and I will continue to fulfill my responsibilities with professionalism.”

The hearing on Wednesday was meant to address Comey’s request to turn over grand jury documents so the defense could review them — alleging that Halligan acted as a puppet for President Trump and “botched” the grand jury indictment.

“The transcript is complete. The procedure was proper,” wrote Assistant US Attorney Gabriel Diaz in the 25-page filing, calling on the court to “set aside” the judge’s order.

Assistant US Attorney N. Tyler Lemons added in a seven-page, follow-up filing that “the government course of conduct here was permissible and proper.”

“The Grand Jury foreperson, as the representative of the Grand Jury, endorsed the revised two count Indictment by signing it and explaining on the record in open Court that the Indictment reflected the vote of the Grand Jury,” Lemons said.

In response to Halligan’s revelation in court Wednesday, defense attorney Michael Dreeben called for the case to be thrown out, claiming the indictment had not been properly secured before the expiration of the five-year statute of limitations Sept. 30.

November 19, 2025 – Florida Congresswoman is indicted for stealing $5 million in FEMA funds

Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (Credit: Congress)

A federal grand jury in Miami has returned an indictment charging Congresswoman Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick and several co-defendants with stealing federal disaster funds, laundering the proceeds, and using the money to support her 2021 congressional campaign.

According to the indictment, Cherfilus-McCormick, 46, and her brother Edwin Cherfilus, 51, both of Miramar, worked through their family health-care company on a FEMA-funded COVID-19 vaccination staffing contract in 2021. In July 2021, the company received an overpayment of $5 million in FEMA funds.

The indictment alleges that the defendants conspired to steal that $5 million and routed it through multiple accounts to disguise its source. Prosecutors allege that a substantial portion of the misappropriated funds was used as candidate contributions to Cherfilus-McCormick’s 2021 congressional campaign and for the personal benefit of the defendants.

The indictment further alleges that Cherfilus-McCormick and Nadege Leblanc, 46, of Miramar, arranged additional contributions using straw donors, funneling other monies from the FEMA-funded Covid-19 contract to friends and relatives who then donated to the campaign as if using their own money.

The indictment also charges Cherfilus-McCormick and her 2021 tax preparer David K. Spencer, 41, of Davie, with conspiring to file a false federal tax return. According to the indictment, they falsely claimed political spending and other personal expenses as business deductions and inflated charitable contributions in order to reduce her tax obligations.

“Using disaster relief funds for self-enrichment is a particularly selfish, cynical crime,” said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. “No one is above the law, least of all powerful people who rob taxpayers for personal gain. We will follow the facts in this case and deliver justice.” (Read more: Department of Justice, 11/19//2025)  (Archive)

November 19, 2025 – Covering Up the Behavioral Health Links to Mass Murders and Assassinations

When violent bloodshed occurs – a school shooting, an assassination, a sudden act of mass violence— behavioral health usually is behind it.

With so many of the nation’s most disturbing violent cases, too often the essential evidence remains sealed, unavailable for public review, like the diary belonging to the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooter, Adam Lanza’s mother, and the reported manifesto of Nashville’s Covenant School shooter, Audrey Hale, (withheld and portions later leaked), plus toxicology reports, DNA and fingerprints and ballistic data necessary as physical evidence to identity the killer and motive.  This is done through meticulous forensic investigation, including how access to the crime scene was gained and whether accomplices were involved; the scientific analysis of toxicology reports, DNA, fingerprints, and ballistic evidence is absolutely essential, providing the objective, irrefutable proof necessary to identify the shooter and uncover the truth behind these senseless, horrific attacks.

Behavioral health “experts” frequently appear linked to suspects, but the exact affiliations and workplace connections rarely are disclosed. The parents of the accused Trump shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, from Butler, PA, are licensed by the state as “experts” in mental health, but whether the family has connections to Governor Shapiro’s agencies throughout the state or research grants with universities remains unknown.

Amber Robinson, for example, the mother of Charlie Kirk’s accused assassin, is employed by Intermountain Behavioral Health in Utah, which received a $750,000 grant under Utah Governor Cox. What other connections does the Robinson family have with the State of Utah and specifically Governor Cox administration?

Moreover, the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU) utilizes psychiatric profiles to help solve crimes, but withholds raw data, physical evidence, and sometimes fails to release its own investigative reports, as is the case of the Butler PA attempted assassination of Donald J. Trump in 2023[4].

The BAU, as the psychiatric industry arm within the FBI, focuses on profiling the psychological mindset and motives behind these high-profile crimes. Yet, despite this focus, the BAU withholds then names of any behavioral health “experts” or their “treatments” that precede the crime and rarely solves these national mass killings.  The data is selectively and strategically dripped out to the public.

The federal law enforcement agency’s repeated failures raise profound questions about possible inside jobs or the possibility of cover-ups, protecting systemic issues in behavioral health and law enforcement.

These systemic flaws within the behavioral health industry and, especially, within law enforcement, allow well-coordinated access to vulnerable children, too often serviced by state mental health vendors that gain trust over many years—a network that may shield threats, inhibit transparency, and prioritize institutional preservation over safety.

The behavioral health system controls vulnerable youth, often medicated under opaque contracts with expensive but irresponsible mental health providers certainly capable of weaponizing developing minds. Montana’s outsourcing of child behavioral health contracts, for example, includes financial ties to China, revealing outside intervention in the nation’s mental health system.

The youth caught up in the mental health system, often are forced into state care and become disposable. Nikolas Cruz, The Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooter in Parkland FL., had been prescribed cocktails of psychiatric mind-altering drugs most of his young life. Henderson Behavioral Health, a Florida contractor exposed during the sentencing hearing was the behavioral health vendor paid to care for Cruz through the state behavioral health system. Yet the medical files, including mental health files, were sealed and, not surprisingly, Henderson Behavioral Health was never held responsible for Cruz’s  murderous actions, despite having been Cruz’s pill pusher for years.

The diary of Audrey Hale was obtained by Nashville Police on the day of the crime, March 27, 2023. Despite immediate possession, Hale’s “manifesto” remained sealed for more than two years. Only in May 2025, after expensive and lengthy legal battles, did the FBI disclose over 100 pages of shooter Hale’s manifesto. Withholding this data limited public understanding and fueled controversy about transparency and systemic concealment.

Despite early claims that Audrey Hale had not been prescribed psychiatric drugs, a Nashville police search warrant revealed prescriptions for Buspirone, Lexapro, Hydroxyzine, and others from Vanderbilt University Hospital. Blood tests conducted at autopsy did not test for therapeutic levels, leaving Hale’s medication status unclear, and fueling debate over the role of psychiatry and transgender care in the attack.  AbleChild helped secure in Tennessee a landmark law to test for therapeutic levels of psychotropic drugs in mass shooters.

In the case of Charlie Kirk’s death, limited information reveals that Lance Twiggs, the alleged romantic interest of alleged shooter, Tyler Robinson, underwent psychiatric experimentation akin to Utah’s Intermountain Trans care program—viewed as Utah’s Vanderbilt equivalent, where Audrey Hale received transgender psychiatric care.

Each incident repeats the cycle: public shock, managed narratives, and a wall of silence as records stay sealed. Until full disclosure, America’s violent crimes remain shrouded in secrecy.

The state and federal governments control access to all the evidence—revealing little and sealing the connections to psychiatric treatments through hospitals like Vanderbilt.

In Sandy Hook, the name of the treating psychiatrist, Dr. Paul Fox, was withheld for over a year, all under the State of Connecticut and Governor Malloy. Meanwhile, frontline responders investigating Sandy Hook, including Newtown Police officers, were implicated in selling controlled substances imported from China and long guns out of their station.

Many would argue that is the definition of an inside job. At the root is a powerful behavioral health industry —a billion-dollar industry funded by state and federal contracts—that operate in the shadows but are directly controlled by Governors, Congressional Representatives and even the Presidency. The missing element is the public.  Until the billion dollar behavioral health industry is regulated to include human rights and transparency, the United States and the world will continue to suffer bloodshed; this is the breeding ground for targeted killings, assassinations, based on the glaring ethical gaps in the behavioral health industry and their ability to cross-market within every institution.

November 19, 2025 – Top Arizona Attorney General official arrested by postal inspectors, allegedly for selling stolen mail

Vanessa Hickman Mugshot (Credit: public domain)

A top official with the Arizona Attorney General’s Office was arrested by U.S. Postal Inspection Service agents on Wednesday evening and faces two felony accusations, of controlling and trafficking stolen property.

Vanessa Hickman served as the state government division chief under Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes. She was placed on administrative leave by Mayes’ office last Thursday after the office was contacted by the U.S. Postal Inspector’s office about an investigation into Hickman, according to Mayes spokesperson Richie Taylor. Mayes’ office “cooperated” with the investigation, Taylor said, and Hickman resigned from her position on Monday, though she is still listed on the agency’s website.

“Attorney General Mayes believes that every individual is entitled to due process, but also that justice must be served,” Taylor wrote in an email to Phoenix New Times. “The allegations against Ms. Hickman are serious for any state employee, particularly someone in a leadership position.” (Read more: Phoenix New Times, 11/20/2025)  (Archive)

UPDATE – 11/21/2025

Vanessa Hickman, the former Arizona Attorney General’s Office state government division chief who was arrested Nov. 19 by the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, is accused of stealing and selling misdelivered mail. Court documents also show that she has a history of alcohol abuse and was in an outpatient substance abuse program while working for Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes.

Hickman faces two felony accusations for controlling and trafficking stolen property. She was placed on administrative leave by Mayes’ office last Thursday after the office was contacted by the U.S. Postal Inspector’s office about an investigation into Hickman. Mayes spokesperson Richie Taylor said the Mayes’ office cooperated with the investigation and that Hickman resigned from her position on Monday. Taylor wrote that “the allegations against Ms. Hickman are serious for any state employee, particularly someone in a leadership position.”

November 20, 2025 – US Attorney Halligan reveals new evidence relating to Letitia James’s alleged mortgage fraud

Last night, US Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia Lindsey Halligan revealed a ton of new evidence relating to Letitia James’s alleged mortgage fraud.

The exhibits are damning, and showed that she lied to the lending bank, the IRS, and her homeowners’ insurer.

James knew all these claims were false when she made them.

In the tweet above, James claimed to have moved into the property in October 2020.

But in September 2020, James’ niece – who James was collecting rent from – registered utilities in the niece’s name.

She also claimed the property as an investment property on her taxes, after having claimed it as a second home on her mortgage application.

Clear fraud.

November 20, 2025 – John Durham stopped John Ratcliffe from declassifying and releasing damning report debunking Obama-ordered Intel on Russia

When Obama administration officials manufactured U.S. intelligence tying Donald Trump to Moscow following his stunning 2016 victory, they had no idea Trump’s own political appointees would help them undermine Trump’s presidency – and his chances of reelection in 2020.

RCI’s review of recently declassified documents and exclusive interviews with former Trump officials reveals for the first time how key members of Trump’s cabinet and other appointees during his first term shrouded the previous administration’s machinations and either deliberately or inadvertently misled the public into thinking the fake Russiagate intelligence was real.

Former Special Counsel John Durham, former National Security Adviser John Bolton, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, and former CIA Director Gina Haspel dismissed or buried evidence that cast doubt on a foundational document of the Russigate hoax – the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) prepared in the waning days of the Obama administration.

Durham, who was appointed by Attorney General William Barr, stopped the declassification and release of key exculpatory evidence debunking the ICA on the eve of the 2020 election, which has not been reported previously. (RealClearInvestigations, 11/20/2025)

November 20, 2025 – Mentally ill MN man left to die by Somali-owned company that billed nearly $500 per day for his care

In an Eastside St. Paul apartment, 39-year-old Rick Clemmer was found dead on March 7, 2025. Police body-camera video from the scene captures a paramedic stating, “He’s got rigor and lividity – so he’s been deceased for a long amount of time.”

Rick Clemmer (Credit: KARE 11)

Clemmer’s death was ruled natural. The medical examiner cited an enlarged heart, but his mother, Mickey Clemmer, believes what’s written on the autopsy report tells only part of the story.

“If they were really providing him the services they should have been,” she told KARE 11, “he would be here with me.”

Rick battled serious mental illness for most of his adult life and struggled with addiction when off his court-ordered medication.

His past included civil commitments, incarceration, and living in supervised settings such as group homes. His family says he’d never lived on his own.

That changed in the summer of 2024, when he moved into his own apartment supported by a Medicaid-funded program called Integrated Community Supports or ICS.

Overseen by the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS), ICS is designed to help adults with disabilities live independently with daily one-to-one assistance – help with health, safety, and household tasks so people can maintain stability and independence in their own homes and communities.

For that individualized support, private ICS companies can bill hundreds of dollars a day.

But for Rick, “that’s where I think things went downhill,” his mom said.

Records obtained by KARE 11 show Rick’s ICS provider, Ultimate Home Health Services LLC, billed taxpayers $461.94 every single day, claiming to provide, on average, 12 hours of service daily.

“Fraud,” Mickey said bluntly. “They’re billing for something that never happened.”

She says she visited weekly, usually spending whole days at his apartment. “I can definitely confirm that those days there was nobody there,” she said, “I was there; there was nobody there.”

When Rick was found dead, St. Paul Police questioned an employee of Ultimate Home Health Services at the scene, his answers sharply undercut the company’s Medicaid billing:

Officer Rodriguez: When is the last time you guys know, seen him, or known that he was alive?

Abdul Ibrahim: Yesterday.

Officer Rodriguez: Around what time?

Abdul Ibrahim: It was yesterday morning…He is the most, one of the most independent, you know, residents here. So, we don’t got to do that much checking on him.

When asked if Rick was currently using drugs, the ICS worker responded, “I mean, to be honest, I do my daily check-ins, I have no idea what he does.” (Read more: KARE 11, 11/20/2025)  (Archive)

November 20, 2025 – The first Antifa terrorism convictions in US history

Antifa is a myth? Joy Abigail Gibson admitted in court that she is a follower of the Antifa ideology and, working with other comrades, carried out a direct action to attack the Prairieland ICE facility in Alvarado, Texas.

Gibson admitted to conducting reconnaissance and communicating what she learned via an encrypted group chat. On the July 4 attack, she was in black bloc and used a handheld radio for communication. The militants shot off large fireworks to lure people out, who were then fired upon.

Gibson is one of five so far to plead guilty to providing material support to terrorists in the federal North Texas Antifa case.

November 21, 2025 – Trump and Bondi ask Florida federal court to release sealed Epstein transcripts, two days after Epstein Files Transparency Act is signed

BREAKING: President Trump and AG Pam Bondi just asked a federal court in Florida to release EPSTEIN TRANSCRIPTS that are currently sealed.

The filing comes barely 2 days after Trump signed the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

The DOJ is now arguing the new law OVERRIDES a law that allowed these documents to remain sealed.

HUGE BACKFIRE on the left.

November 21, 2025 – Comer threatens contempt proceedings against Clintons if they continue to ignore Epstein subpoenas

House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) warned Bill and Hillary Clinton Friday that if they continue to ignore deposition subpoenas regarding their history with Jeffrey Epstein, he will initiate contempt proceedings.

The House Oversight Committee is conducting a review of the federal government’s investigation into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and his accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell, focused on potential mismanagement of the case, the circumstances surrounding Epstein’s death, his trafficking network, and possible ethics violations by elected officials.

Comer sent a letter to Clinton attorney David Kendall, emphasizing that the Clintons are required to comply with House subpoenas and appear for scheduled in-person depositions.

According to the chairman, Democrats and Republicans on the Oversight Committee approved a motion to issue the subpoenas back in July.

“The Committee has since worked in good faith to schedule in-person depositions, but further delays are unacceptable,” Comer wrote. “Given their history with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, any attempt by the Clintons to avoid sitting for a deposition would be in defiance of lawful subpoenas and grounds to initiate contempt of Congress proceedings,” he added.

Comer stated that Bill Clinton’s deposition is scheduled for December 17, 2025, and Hillary Clinton’s deposition is scheduled for December 18, 2025 and asked Kendall to confirm their appearance. (Read more: American Greatness, 11/21/2025)  (Archive)

November 22, 2025 – Somalis in Minnesota are part of a massive fraud scandal involves funneling federal funds to Islamic terrorists

President Donald Trump announced Friday that he is terminating Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Somalis in Minnesota, claiming the state has become “a hub of fraudulent money laundering activity.”

In response, Governor Tim Walz pushed back, writing on X, “It’s not surprising that the President has chosen to broadly target an entire community. This is what he does to change the subject.”

According to the US Citizenship and Immigration Services website, the TPS designation for Somalia is currently listed as active through March 17, 2026. The move to terminated TPS status for Somalis follows efforts by the Trump administration to remove protections for migrants from Afghanistan, Venezuela, Syria, and South Sudan, which have faced legal challenges.

Millions of dollars in taxpayer money stolen as part of a series of massive Minnesota welfare fraud schemes may have been funneled to Somalia-based terror group al-Shabab, according to a report.

The radical Islamic terror group, which is a longstanding ally of al Qaeda and considered a threat to US interests, has likely been the beneficiary of money stolen in a spate of scams and sent to Somalia by the criminals defrauding the North Star State, City Journal reported Wednesday, citing federal counterterrorism sources.

“This is a third-rail conversation, but the largest funder of al-Shabab is the Minnesota taxpayer,” a source who worked on a federal investigation into Minnesotans attempting to join overseas terror groups, told the outlet.

“There is an issue here that is real, and if there is ever an event that is traceable back to these funds, or to people from this area, then this situation will take on a whole new set of optics,” the source warned. (Read more: New York Post, 11/20/2025)

November 24, 2025 – Vindman brothers who helped impeach Trump In 2020, are now under investigation

Alexander (l) and Eugene Vindman (Credit: public domain)

Rep. Eugene Vindman, D-Va., and his twin brother Alexander are reportedly under investigation for illegally acting as “paid brokers” for U.S. defense firms seeking business in Ukraine.

“Pentagon General Counsel Earl Matthews alleges that Vindman and his twin brother Alex did not have approval from the U.S. government before seeking to act as ‘paid brokers’ for American defense firms pursuing contracts with Ukraine after Russia’s 2022 full-scale invasion,” the Washington Post revealed over the weekend, citing a Nov. 19 letter for War Secretary Pete Hegseth.

“The letter does not explicitly allege the Vindmans received money from the Ukrainian government, arguing only that they “did not insulate themselves from the requirements of federal law,” the Post added.

Eugene Vindman confirmed the investigation Friday on Twitter/X. He claimed it’s politically motivated in response to his calls for the White house to release the transcript of a recent call between President Donald Trump and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

However, the Trump administration has signaled that it may investigate since before Trump took office. Last November, billionaire Elon Musk accused Alexander Vindman of treason.

“Vindman is on the payroll of Ukrainian oligarchs and has committed treason against the United States, for which he will pay the appropriate penalty,” Musk said in November on his platform, Twitter/X.

(…)  Politico revealed in 2023 that that Alex Vindman is heading a group called Trident Support, which wants to send American military contractors to Ukraine. According to the documents, Vindman, who is of Ukrainian origin, is seeking $12 million for his project—$2 million for “initial operating capability” and another $10 million for “full operating.”

While such a scheme may not be illegal, it demonstrates that the Vindman brothers are war profiteers who benefit from an escalation in Ukraine.  (Read more: Headline News, 11/24/2025) (Archive)

November 24, 2025 – Techno Fog: The Comey case is dismissed (without prejudice); DOJ will appeal

Today, a federal judge ruled that Lindsey Halligan, the interim U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, was unlawfully appointed and “had no lawful authority” to present Comey’s indictment to the grand jury.

As a result, he granted James Comey’s motion to dismiss the indictment and the motion to dismiss of Letitia James.

While the court’s order dismissed the indictment without prejudice, the dismissal – if upheld – may effectively end the prosecution, as the statute of limitations on Comey’s crimes (false statements and obstructing a congressional proceeding) will have since passed.

(…) The Appointment Clause is found in Article II of the Constitution, and the relevant part states that principal officers must be appointed by the President “with the Advice and Consent of the Senate.” While U.S. attorneys are inferior officers, Congress – in accordance with its Constitutional mandate under Article II – has provided the law by which U.S. attorneys are appointed through Senate approval. See 28 U.S.C. § 541(a) (“The President shall appoint, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, a United States attorney for each judicial district.”).

Of course, this presents a problem for new Presidential administrations – sometimes, there are delays in the Senate confirmation of a U.S. Attorney. Or, a nomination may be terminated or rejected by the Senate, which requires the appointment of a temporary U.S. Attorney.

Congress addressed that problem through Section 546, which states:

“The Attorney General may appoint a United States attorney for the district in which the office of United States attorney is present.”

But there are some limitations to that appointment power conferred to the Attorney General under Section 546. First, the Attorney General may not nominate a person whose appointment has been refused by the Senate. And second, the interim appointment expires in 120 days.

Addressing the circumstances where the 120-day appointment expires, Section 546 states:

“the district court for such district may appoint a United States attorney to serve until the vacancy is filled. The order of appointment by the court shall be filed with the clerk of the court.”

Here’s where we get to the Halligan situation. Her predecessor was Erik Siebert, who had a 120-day appointment as U.S. Attorney for EDVA. His appointment was to expire on May 21, 2025, so the EDVA judges extended his appointment until the vacancy is filled.

Siebert, however, resigned from his position – reportedly because of his concern in pursuing charges against James Comey and Letitia James. Faced with this vacancy, Attorney General Bondi appointed Halligan.

That gets us to the issue in the Comey and Letitia James cases: whether the Attorney General can appoint another interim U.S. Attorney, or whether subsequent appointments may only be made by the judges of the applicable judicial district.

Section 546 does not explicitly answer that question. There is no stated prohibition from the Attorney General appointing a second interim appointment. Furthermore, there is no explicit language that only the district court may make an appointment after the 120 days.

For reference, here is the text in full:

Judge Cameron Currie (Credit: public domain)

I provide the text in full because it is important in light of Judge Currie’s order. He found that the language makes “clear” that the appointment power does not revert back to the Attorney General “if the Court-appointed U.S. Attorney leaves office before a Senate-confirmed U.S. Attorney is installed.”

We read Section 546 different. The court is just wrong. The law gives the district court the option to appoint a U.S. Attorney until the vacancy is filled. But providing an option does not confer absolute authority. Neither does it take the lawful authority (provided in Section 546(a)) away from the Attorney General to make another appointment. In fact, the only limitation on the authority of the Attorney General is that they cannot appoint those who were previously rejected by the Senate.

Part of the court’s reasoning (we won’t address everything in its lengthy order) was that allowing the Attorney General to make multiple interim appointments would render 546(d) – the part allowing the district to make its own appointment – “insignificant” and “dormant in all but the most unlikely situations.” This would thus allow the Attorney General’s appointments to “serve indefinitely” without Senate approval.

But this parade of horribles is unpersuasive. Not only do many statutory provisions lie dormant by their nature (think emergency appointments, emergency powers, etc.) but there are definitely trade-offs when the Attorney General has to keep making 120-day appointments, such as the inability to properly further the President’s ambitions or the inability to find worthy candidates to serve on such temporary positions.

The court also looked to the legislative history of Section 546 to support its order, citing Democrats like Senator Patrick Leahy who, in 2006, stated that Section 546 “is not designed or intended to be used repeatedly for the same vacancy.”

In doing so, the court cherry picked the statements of Senators who agreed with his position while disregarding those Senators whose statements on Section 546 disagreed with his finding. As noted in the Government’s motion on this issue, Senator Jon Kyle observed, Section 546 reinstated the same language as a prior law that allowed the Attorney General to “make consecutive 120-day appointments of interim U.S. attorneys.”

But that legislative history wasn’t in the court’s order. Neither were the facts that Section 546, which was amended in 2006/2007 to restore the prior version’s statutory language that was understood to allow successive appointments. The judge, in effect, “looked over the crowd and picked out his friends.”

As the Government further explained:

“If Congress had intended to block successive appointments in 2007, as Defendants claim, returning to the former text that had long been understood to authorize such appointments would have been a bizarre way of doing so.”

Where do we go from here?

November 25, 2025 – Pentagon bureaucrats block Trump order to reinstate troops purged by Biden’s Covid vaccine mandate, an illegal order

RESISTANCE: Ten months after Trump ordered reinstatement of troops purged by Biden’s Covid mandate, only 86 have been restored. Pentagon holdovers, led by DEI bureaucrat Stephanie Miller, are blocking Trump’s order.

The War Department has reinstated only 86 service members despite Trump’s January directive to restore all troops forced out under Biden’s Covid shot mandate. Officials blame Stephanie Miller, the DoW undersecretary controlling personnel systems, who designed and enforced the original mandate and previously served as the Pentagon’s DEI chief. Her husband’s work as a defense and pharmaceutical lobbyist adds further conflict concerns. Hegseth and senior Trump deputies have spent months fighting internal resistance to comply with the order.

Policy Obstruction in the Department of War🚨

Why do woke General Officers continue to get promoted while reinstatement of unlawfully discharged personnel continues to stagnate and go nowhere (despite President Trump’s EO to expedite their reinstatement)?

Meet Stephanie Miller, the Deputy Assistant Secretary of War for Military Personnel Policy for the Department of War and architect of the military’s previous Diversity and Inclusion program.

Stephanie is an SES who oversees the “full spectrum of human resource policies for over two million military personnel serving in the Department of War.”

Stephanie is in charge of accession policy, personnel management, General and Flag Officer promotions and retention, and more.

According to Stephanie’s bio, she served in “a variety of executive positions throughout the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel Policy,” to include leadership positions as the DoD Director of Diversity and Inclusion Management.

In addition to serving as a special assistant to SECDEF Ashton Carter, under whose tenure, in January of 2016, announced that “the Department of Defense opened all military roles to women, overriding a request by the Marine Corps to continue to exempt women from certain positions. In June 2016, Carter announced that transgender individuals would be allowed to join and openly serve in the military,” also served as Deputy Director for Navy Diversity and in a leadership position as the DOD Director of Diversity and Inclusion Management.

Stephanie served as a special assistant to SECDEF Chuck Hagel, who oversaw sequestration and in 2013 during a visit to Asian countries, stated his “main doubt was American staying power in the region. Hagel called the decline of American military power a “good thing”, because it forced American allies to share responsibilities. On July 31, 2013, Hagel announced the results of his Strategic Choices and Management Review, undertaken in response to the budget sequestration in 2013. One of the options he highlighted was to reduce the navy’s aircraft carrier groups down from 11 to as little as eight.

Under Stephanie’s leadership, military recruiting dropped to an all time low in the entire history of the all volunteer force from 2022-2024. Multiple branches failed to achieve recruiting numbers for the first time since the draft ended in 1973.

Stephanie has been an advisor to, and architect of, every decision in the military over the last decade and a half that has harmed military readiness and overall military strength.

As the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Military Personnel Policy, all accession and General Officer promotions run directly through her. You need not ask yourself why woke Flag Officers continue to accelarate through promotions, and personnel seeking reinstatement for unlawful discharges continue to run into red tape and road blocks. The answer is clear.

(Of note: I’ve include her previous bio and current bio. Her current bio is scrubbed of any mention of DEI.)


November 25, 2025 – GAO official admits GAO staff “stole & backed up” federal data to keep it outside RFK Jr. led HHS control

CAUGHT ON HIDDEN CAMERA: U.S. Government Accountability Office Director Admits GAO Staff “Stole & Backed Up” Vaccine Data Allegedly Deleted by RFK Jr.’s HHS – Possible Violations of Federal Records, Theft, & CFAA Laws.

Steven Putansu, a 16-year veteran of the U.S. Government Accountability Office & current Assistant Director, revealed a covert effort inside GAO to preserve vaccine research data.

Putansu admitted on hidden camera GAO staff “stole & backed up” federal data to keep it outside RFK Jr. led HHS control – a potential violation of several federal statutes, including:

– Unauthorized Removal or Destruction of Public Records (18 U.S.C. § 2071)
– Theft or Conversion of Government Property (18 U.S.C. § 641)
– Computer Fraud & Abuse Act – CFAA (18 U.S.C. § 1030) for accessing or copying government data without authorization.

“We’ve stolen & backed those things up so that someday they can come back to government.”

“I’d watch out for the vaccine denying HHS who’s going to ruin health care in this country even more than it already is.”

“It limits the amount of permanent damage… research he’s trying to delete is stored outside his control.”

Bro this is Deep State clownery on steroids, the kind of mask-off confession you normally only hear in a bad movie right before the villain gets dragged out of the building with a box of his desk junk. You’ve got a GAO director literally bragging on hidden camera that he and his little bureaucrat Avengers “stole” federal data, hid it off-site, and are running some rogue side-mission because they don’t like who the American people put in charge. That’s not “oversight,” that’s government fan fiction written by a guy who thinks he’s Jason Bourne but he’s really Dwight Schrute with a clearance badge.

This dude straight up lists federal crimes like he’s reading a grocery receipt, then says “If they ever find a way to get me, I’m done,” which is basically the guilty man national anthem. The arrogance is insane, the entitlement is radioactive, and the panic is delicious. Launch the investigation, put sunlight on every corner of this operation, and kick every rogue bureaucrat out of the cockpit. You can’t have unelected pencil pushers running secret data heists because they don’t like the new sheriff in town. This is the exact swamp infection America is sick of, and it just got caught dropping receipts on camera like a damn amateur.

Bro this is the kind of deep-state cockroach confession you only get when the cameras are hidden and the wine is flowing, and holy hell this dude delivered the whole damn script like he forgot he wasn’t talking to his therapist. The GAO literally admitting they stole federal data, hid it off-site, and are basically running a shadow government IT department because they don’t like who’s in charge at HHS. That ain’t “oversight,” that’s bureaucratic cartel behavior, straight up. These clowns think they’re the guardians of the universe, deciding which elected administration is allowed to govern and which policies get deleted or “protected.”

And the funniest part? He’s whining like, “we had to steal it to stop RFK Jr from ruining healthcare,” like bro, you just confessed to multiple felonies on camera while bragging about saving democracy like you’re Frodo carrying a USB stick to Mordor. This is the swamp exactly as Trump always described it, smug pencil-neck lifers who genuinely think they’re above the law and can override presidents. They don’t serve America, they serve themselves. These people shouldn’t just be fired, they should be audited so hard their hard drives confess too.

November 26, 2025 – Trump vindicated as Fani Willis’ case is tossed out by new prosecutor

Trump and codefendant mugshots from Fulton County-jail in Georgia recorder.

The prosecutor who inherited Georgia’s chaotic election interference case against President Donald Trump has pulled the plug in a major vindication for the president.

Pete Skandalakis, the executive director of the Prosecuting Attorneys’ Council of Georgia, told the court Wednesday he won’t move forward with the long-running probe. He took control last month after Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was tossed from the case for creating an “appearance of impropriety” through her romantic entanglement with the special prosecutor she hired.

Trump’s lead Georgia attorney, Steve Sadow, celebrated the decision as the long-overdue collapse of a politically driven hit job.

“The political persecution of President Trump by disqualified DA Fani Willis is finally over. This case should never have been brought. A fair and impartial prosecutor has put an end to this lawfare,” Sadow told Newsweek in an email.

While prosecutors were barred from going after Trump while he’s in the Oval Office, the case had continued to loom over 14 remaining defendants. They included former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani and Trump’s ex–White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, both of whom still faced charges before Wednesday’s move effectively froze the entire prosecution.

Pirro: We have been in constant contact with their families and have provided them with every resource needed during this difficult time. The two National Guardsmen that we’re talking about are Sarah Beckstrom, who is 20 years old, and Andrew Wolfe, who is 24 years old. They were uniformed members of the West Virginia National Guard, and they were in DC to keep DC safe, pursuant to President Trump’s executive order to Make DC Safe and Beautiful. They answered the call, they took the charge, they volunteered. They put their lives on the line for people they don’t even know, and that, unfortunately, is becoming a reality more and more for the members of law enforcement.

Terrorist Who Shot Two National Guard Members in D.C. Was Let into the Country by the Biden Administration’s Operation Allies Welcome Program

Rahmanullah Lakanwal traveled to the United States in 2021 from Islamabad International Airport. According to newly obtained information, Rahmanullah Lakanwal a former soldier of Afghanistan’s Zero-One Unit who had been trained by U.S. forces traveled to Islamabad in late 2021. Reliable sources confirm that he spent 24 days in Islamabad, mostly around Islamabad International Airport, waiting for his documents to be processed and for his evacuation flight to the United States. During this period, he remained in Pakistan while awaiting the final approval for his relocation. After completing the required procedures, Lakanwal eventually departed for the United States from Islamabad International Airport.

November 26, 2025 – Democrat judge overturns jury’s guilty verdict; frees Somali immigrant who stole $7.2 MILLION in Medicaid fraud scheme

Judge Sarah West (Credit: Gateway Pundit)

Radical Democrat judge Sarah West, appointed by former Democrat Governor Mark Dayton, has tossed out a jury’s unanimous guilty verdict, setting free Abdifatah Yusuf, a Somali immigrant convicted of masterminding a massive Medicaid fraud ring that siphoned off $7.2 million from taxpayers.

A jury had found Yusuf guilty in August on six counts of aiding and abetting theft by swindle, following evidence that his home-healthcare company billed Medicaid for hundreds of thousands dollars in “phantom” care, padding bills for services never delivered.

Prosecutors documented that many of those funds were funneled into luxury cars, high-end clothing, and other extravagant personal purchases.

But Judge West, rather than upholding the jury’s verdict, claimed the case hinged on circumstantial evidence and offered “other reasonable inferences” for the billing irregularities, arguing prosecutors failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Yusuf was personally responsible for the fraud. She issued a judgment of acquittal.

Jurors, prosecutors, and state lawmakers were stunned. One juror told reporters he believed the evidence demonstrated “obvious guilt.” The state’s Attorney General has already filed an appeal, warning the decision undermines public trust.

KARE11 reported:

“It was not a difficult decision whatsoever. The deliberation took probably four hours at most.  Based off of the state’s evidence that was presented, it was beyond a reasonable doubt,” jury foreperson Ben Walfoort told KARE 11 News.

[…]

Jurors from the case can’t believe the decision.

“I am shocked. I’m shocked based off of all of the evidence that was presented to us and the obvious guilt that we saw based off of the said evidence,” Walfoort said.

Another juror told KARE 11: “We didn’t take our job lightly. We went through a lot of evidence and discussed a lot, took our time, but we all came to an agreement pretty easily.”

The Attorney General’s Office filed an appeal on Monday. Prosecutors are rarely able to appeal an acquittal, but they can in this case since the judgment overturns the will of the jury.

Yusuf’s attorney Ian Birrell provided KARE 11 with this statement: “Judge West’s ruling affirms what we have maintained from the beginning: our client Mr. Yusuf was wrongfully accused and did not commit fraud or racketeering. The Court’s decision to enter judgments of acquittal on all charges reflects the fundamental principle that justice requires both fairness and proof. We appreciate the Court’s careful attention to the evidence and the law.”

November 27, 2025 – Trump’s message to America on Thanksgiving Day

A very Happy Thanksgiving salutation to all of our Great American Citizens and Patriots who have been so nice in allowing our Country to be divided, disrupted, carved up, murdered, beaten, mugged, and laughed at, along with certain other foolish countries throughout the World, for being “Politically Correct,” and just plain STUPID, when it comes to Immigration. The official United States Foreign population stands at 53 million people (Census), most of which are on welfare, from failed nations, or from prisons, mental institutions, gangs, or drug cartels. They and their children are supported through massive payments from Patriotic American Citizens who, because of their beautiful hearts, do not want to openly complain or cause trouble in any way, shape, or form. They put up with what has happened to our Country, but it’s eating them alive to do so! A migrant earning $30,000 with a green card will get roughly $50,000 in yearly benefits for their family. The real migrant population is much higher. This refugee burden is the leading cause of social dysfunction in America, something that did not exist after World War II (Failed schools, high crime, urban decay, overcrowded hospitals, housing shortages, and large deficits, etc.). As an example, hundreds of thousands of refugees from Somalia are completely taking over the once great State of Minnesota. Somalian gangs are roving the streets looking for “prey” as our wonderful people stay locked in their apartments and houses hoping against hope that they will be left alone. The seriously retarded Governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz, does nothing, either through fear, incompetence, or both, while the worst “Congressman/woman” in our Country, Ilhan Omar, always wrapped in her swaddling hijab, and who probably came into the U.S.A. illegally in that you are not allowed to marry your brother, does nothing but hatefully complain about our Country, its Constitution, and how “badly” she is treated, when her place of origin is a decadent, backward, and crime ridden nation, which is essentially not even a country for lack of Government, Military, Police, schools, etc…

…Even as we have progressed technologically, Immigration Policy has eroded those gains and living conditions for many. I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries to allow the U.S. system to fully recover, terminate all of the millions of Biden illegal admissions, including those signed by Sleepy Joe Biden’s Autopen, and remove anyone who is not a net asset to the United States, or is incapable of loving our Country, end all Federal benefits and subsidies to noncitizens of our Country, denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization. These goals will be pursued with the aim of achieving a major reduction in illegal and disruptive populations, including those admitted through an unauthorized and illegal Autopen approval process. Only REVERSE MIGRATION can fully cure this situation. Other than that, HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL, except those that hate, steal, murder, and destroy everything that America stands for — You won’t be here for long!

November 28, 2025: What is a color revolution? DataRepublican: “Here is the truth, lifted from my manuscript”

They do not like boiling a color revolution down to a sequence for a few reasons among which:
1) The people participating tend to be siloed (civic engagement isn’t the same as vote tabulation)
2) They depend on the veneer that color revolutions are totally organic

But this is the 7-step sequence which I reverse-engineered.

 

@Grok What were the different color revolutions in Eastern Europe? What years did they occur? Who funded them?

Major color revolutions in Eastern Europe/post-Soviet states include:

– Bulldozer Revolution (Serbia, 2000)
– Rose Revolution (Georgia, 2003)
– Orange Revolution (Ukraine, 2004)
– Tulip Revolution (Kyrgyzstan, 2005)

Funding often linked to Western orgs like USAID, NED, and Soros’ Open Society Foundations. Views differ: some see organic uprisings with aid, others as externally driven interventions. Sources: Wikipedia, E-IR, Global Times.

@Grok Were there also minor color revolutions? What year and who funded them?

Other lesser-known or attempted color revolutions include:

– Jeans Revolution (Belarus, 2006): Failed protests against election fraud.
– Grape Revolution (Moldova, 2009): Anti-communist unrest.
– Colorful Revolution (North Macedonia, 2016): Protests against government corruption.
– Velvet Revolution (Armenia, 2018): Ousted prime minister.
– 2020 Belarus protests: Challenged Lukashenko’s re-election.

Funding views vary: Western sources see organic movements with NGO support (e.g., NED, USAID, Open Society); critics (Russia, China) claim US-orchestrated interference. Sources: Wikipedia, E-IR, Global Times.

November 28, 2025 – Nicole Shanahan shares her experience with the Silicon Valley “tech wife mafia” and how they were used

This is the most jaw-dropping 4 minutes and 21 seconds you will watch this year.

Nicole Shanahan — ex-wife of Google co-founder Sergey Brin, former running mate of RFK Jr., and someone who personally signed nine-figure philanthropy checks — just went full whistleblower on the entire Silicon Valley “tech wife mafia” and how they were used.

Her exact words (full clip attached):

“I don’t think many of the tech mafia wives realize… they were used to set the groundwork for what Klaus Schwab calls The Great Reset.

Their money especially was being conscripted through a network of NGO advisors, Hollywood, Davos, and their own companies.

A really small group of people… completely blind to how their groundwork is being used to enable these Great Reset policies.”

Then she turns the knife inward:

“These women find their meaning through philanthropic work. I really believed I was helping Black communities and indigenous communities rise up.

But now the problems have gotten worse. Crime worse. Mental health worse. The whole model is broken.

At the end of the day they always go: ‘But climate change.’

Social justice + climate change — it gets progressive women 100% of the time.”

She even says many now believe the biggest “climate change issues” are actually geoengineering issues.

This isn’t some random podcast bro.

This is a woman who lived in the mansions, sat on the boards, flew private to Davos parties… and is now saying:

“We were the useful idiots.”

November 29, 2025 – Timeline of a Deep State Hit

Timeline of a deep state hit:

A) a JSOC kill strike is ordered on an authorized target. Not a capture strike, a kill strike – President Obama was quite fond of them btw – 500+ to his name, including Americans.

B) the story is leaked. A leak from JSOC? Probably not – the leak is probably closer to the SECWAR’s office in the Pentagon. The Washington Post begins writing the story.

C) a Soros-funded NGO puts billboards up encouraging military personnel to report unlawful orders… although there are no unlawful orders identified.

D) out of nowhere, the Seditious Six – which includes one presidential hopeful and one former IC member who had direct involvement in the original attempt to destroy Trump – delivers to social media a “don’t give up the ship” video – a public service announcement to all personnel to refuse unlawful orders.

*** the video was funded and produced a Soros funded NGO.

E) Senator [S]lotkin, the former CIA ghoul, goes on the news and is very careful to state that she can’t identify any unlawful orders that have been given.

F) boom, the WaPo delivers the story claiming unlawful orders.

G) Friday evening, everyone on the left hits social media – with paid amplification – about the unlawful orders.

H) the Sunday shows will be filled with calls for war crimes charges, impeachments, and resignations.

All a coincidence, right? None of it was coordinated, right?

Not all civil wars happen on the battlefield.

They planned it before the first boat strike.

SEDITION EXPOSED!
ANTI-TRUMP MILITARY CAMPAIGN PLANNING DISCOVERED IN AUGUST 2025.
1️⃣ Billboards have recently sprung up across America promoting military sedition.
2️⃣ Billboards sponsored by “http://NotWhatYouSignedUpFor.org”
3️⃣ Organization website INITIATED on AUGUST 28,2025. UPDATED SEPT 3, 2025.
4️⃣ FIRST VENEZUELAN DRUG BOAT STRIKE SEPTEMBER 2, 2025.

QUESTIONS:
➡️ The “Seditious Six” have now quoted the Venezuela boat strikes as the reason for their statements to military members.
If so, how did this organization know about Venezuela boat strikes and initiate a website in August if the first strike was September 2, 2025?
➡️ Why was the website updated the day AFTER the first boat was hit?
➡️ Two weeks following this, media were restricted from the Pentagon.
Was there a leak regarding conflict with Venezuela?
➡️ Is Maduro a conspirator in the Color Revolution to overthrow the United States government?

Counter.

November 29, 2025 – Minnesota DHS staff: Tim Walz is 100% responsible for massive fraud in Minnesota

Tim Walz is 100% responsible for massive fraud in Minnesota. We let Tim Walz know of fraud early on, hoping for a partnership in stopping fraud but no, we got the opposite response. Tim Walz systematically retaliated against whistleblowers using monitoring, threats, repression, and did his best to discredit fraud reports. Instead of partnership, we got the full weight of retaliation by Tim Walz, certain DFL members and an indifferent mainstream media. It’s scary, isolating and left us wondering who we can turn to.

In addition to retaliating against whistleblower, Tim Walz disempowered the Office of the Legislative Auditor, allowing agencies to disregard their audit findings and guidance. Media and politicians supporting Tim Walz or the DFL-agenda attacked whistleblowers who were trying to raise red flags on fraudulent activities.

This is a cascade of systemic failures leading up to Tim Walz. Agency leaders appointed by Tim Walz willfully disregarded rules and laws to keep fraud reports quiet – even to the extent of threatening families of whistleblowers. These same leaders are not qualified for their jobs, instead getting leadership jobs via Tim Walz’s friendship so state government were left floundering. DFL lawmakers refused to acknowledge fraud and deflected any serious conversation to stop fraud. Biased mainstream media such as WCCO and MPR showed absolutely no interest in covering fraud happening in our own state. Programs, especially in behavioral health and disability services were built without any guardrails against fraud, all in an attempt to extract more funding from legislature and the federal government.

As staff, we firsthand witnessed and observed fraud happening yet we were shutdown, reassigned and told to keep quiet. Sometimes more. Leadership did not want to appear to discriminate against certain communities and were unwilling to take action, such as stopping fraud, that would have an adverse impact on their image. To date, no single agency leader has been held responsible for their role in fraud whether it’s Shireen Gandhi, Jess Geil, Jodi Harpstead, Natasha Merz, Eric Grumdahl or others.

It is a structure created and maintained by Tim Walz who has created an environment of inter-related agencies and institutions including the media – that help foster fraud through retaliation and turning a blind eye in exchange for political gain in the form of high power agency leadership jobs or other perks.

Fundamentally, Tim Walz is dishonest, lacks ethics and integrity, has poor leadership abilities, and has never taken any accountability for his role in fraud. Instead, Tim Walz deflects by blaming national politics for his own failings and distracts the public with inveterate lying. These lies include his reference of a budget surplus under his tenure. Fact is, Minnesota never had a surplus, we had been given federal ARPA funds that were conflated as surplus money otherwise, we’d be in a deficit. And those ARPA funds, which were meant to be temporary funds were used to create more leadership positions for Tim Walz “buddies.”

As such, we can’t fight fraud in Minnesota alone hence why we’re appealing to the federal levels of government. We need all the help we can get as Tim Walz’s agency leaders have upped their brazen approach in covering up their knowledge of fraud.

We are grateful to numerous solid politicians (esp the Fraud Committee) and media outlets who are trying to halt fraud. We are also grateful to other whistleblowers who are bravely stepping up.

Thank You NY Times for bringing the plight of Minnesota to the national stage.

November 29, 2025 – Another Afghan national is arrested days after DC terrorist attack for threatening to bomb Fort Worth

Mohammad Dawood Alokozay (Credit: public domain)

A second Afghan national who was flown into the United States under Biden’s Operation Allies Welcome program in 2021 has been arrested in connection with a terror plot after threatening on TikTok to detonate a bomb in Texas.

This comes just days after 29-year-old Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal, who entered the country under the same program in 2021, ambushed two West Virginia National Guardsmen in Washington, DC, killing one and critically injuring the other.

Lakanwal’s permission to be in the US expired in September 2025, and he has been living in the United States illegally ever since.

Now,  Mohammad Dawood Alokozay has been arrested for posting a video of himself online, threatening to use a homemade bomb in an attack around Fort Worth, Texas.

He was admitted as a lawful permanent resident on September 7, 2022, following Biden’s failed withdrawal from Afghanistan during the summer of 2021.

Alokozay has been charged with making a terroristic threat at the state level.

Kayleigh McEnany reported on the story for Fox:

McEnany: You won’t believe this. DHS is confirming that an Afghan national was arrested Tuesday after posting a video of himself on Tiktok indicating he was building a bomb with an intended target of the Fort Worth area. Mohammed Dawood. Alokazai is charged at the state level with making a terroristic threat, according to DHS.

Listen to this. He came to the United States as part of Operation Allies Welcome. So, here you have it. This happened Tuesday— Texas Department of Public Safety. This is a second Afghan national, second one this week, Operation Allies Welcome.

He had a terror plot, we know it comes the same week that that deranged individual, that alleged assassin, took out two of our heroic National Guard, came here on the same program, Operation Allies Welcome, a program that we were assured time and time again by Mayorkas, by Jen Psaki, by Joe Biden himself, was safe and secure.

But here we have a second data point in one week that it was not safe, it was not secure, and we’ve got to look very hard at this program as President Trump is vowing to make change.

November 29, 2025 – Kash Patel says all contents of FBI Trump-Russia burn bags will be made public

  • FBI Director Kash Patel says the contents of the burn bags containing Trump-Russia documents discovered at the FBI building will be made public one way or another.
  • “You’re going to see everything we found in that room in one way or another, be it through investigation, public trial, or disclosure to the Congress,” Patel told The Epoch Times in an interview with reporter Jan Jekielek that will air Saturday.
  • The bureau said that the classified information was stashed away in a room at FBI Headquarters and was related to Crossfire Hurricane and also other FBI inquiries into President Donald Trump and his allies. Patel previously said that the FBI had found “several bags” containing evidence related to the Russiagate investigation.
  • One electronic communication made public by the Justice Department in court filings related to the prosecution of former FBI Director James Comey earlier this month indicated the FBI began a preliminary investigation into the discovery this summer.

November 29, 2025 – House Oversight releases bombshell footage: Biden aides admit to covering up concerns about his health

HOUSE OVERSIGHT RELEASES BOMBSHELL FOOTAGE: BIDEN AIDES ADMIT TO HEALTH COVERUP

The House Oversight Committee has released exclusive extended footage of Biden aides admitting how they propped up the 46th president as he declined.

Makeup.

Teleprompters at small fundraisers.

Limiting events.

Stage-managing appearances.

Reducing his workload.

Avoiding interviews.

Even recruiting Hollywood directors Steven Spielberg and Jeffrey Katzenberg to help with the State of the Union.

They controlled everything, including who could see him.

This wasn’t a presidency. It was a production.

The 91-page committee report found Biden’s “inner circle” took steps to “meticulously stage-manage” his public appearances, lighten his private workload, and block lawmakers from talking to him directly.

Three key aides took the Fifth Amendment when questioned, including White House physician Dr. Kevin O’Connor, who refused to answer: “Were you ever told to lie about the president’s health?”

Former Chief of Staff Jeff Zients admitted under oath he didn’t even know who operated the autopen that signed approximately 92% of Biden’s documents.

Trump has now declared all autopen-signed executive actions “NULL AND VOID” and threatened Biden with perjury charges if he claims he authorized them.

The same people who called you a conspiracy theorist for questioning Biden’s fitness were stage-managing his every movement.

They knew. They all knew.

And they lied to your face for four years.

November 29, 2025 – Kash Patel: James Comey celebrated way too early that his indictment got dismissed by an activist judge

Bro this is the kind of plot twist that makes DC elites start sweating through their $9,000 suits, because Kash Patel saying “we’re NOT done” is basically the political equivalent of a horror movie villain whispering “I’ll be right back” from behind the curtain.

Comey was out here doing his little victory lap like a dude who thinks the ref blew the whistle, completely forgetting there’s still a whole fourth quarter left and the other team just activated beast mode. And the way Kash said “right after Thanksgiving” got half of Washington clutching their pearls, because that ain’t vague, that’s a countdown.

No violence, no threats, just cold bureaucratic karma circling back like a heat-seeking missile. Comey celebrated early like a rookie who spikes the ball at the five-yard line, and now he’s about to learn that premature bragging in politics is a full-contact sport.

Stay tuned, the popcorn’s warm and the swamp creatures are trembling.

November 29, 2025 – NYT: Tim Walz oversaw ‘staggering’ levels of Social Services fraud — Minnesota DHS estimates $8 billion stolen since 2017

Tim Walz (Credit: Gage Skidmore)

The left-wing New York Times has admitted that Minnesota Governor Tim Walz oversaw a “staggering” level of fraud across the state’s social services.

In a piece published on Saturday, the Times argued that Walz, who last year became one of the least successful vice-presidential nominees in living memory, had overseen a level of fraud “staggering in its scale and brazenness,” largely by the state’s Somali community.

Their report states:

Over the last five years, law enforcement officials say, fraud took root in pockets of Minnesota’s Somali diaspora as scores of individuals made small fortunes by setting up companies that billed state agencies for millions of dollars’ worth of social services that were never provided.

Federal prosecutors say that 59 people have been convicted in those schemes so far, and that more than $1 billion in taxpayers’ money has been stolen in three plots they are investigating.

That is more than Minnesota spends annually to run its Department of Corrections. Minnesota’s fraud scandal stood out even in the context of rampant theft during the pandemic, when Americans stole tens of billions through unemployment benefits, business loans and other forms of aid, according to federal auditors.

Outrage has swelled among Minnesotans, and fraud has turned into a potent political issue in a competitive campaign season. Gov. Tim Walz and fellow Democrats are being asked to explain how so much money was stolen on their watch, providing Republicans, who hope to take back the governor’s office in 2026, with a powerful line of attack.

However, Walz is unwilling to confront the issue over his fear of losing Somali voting base, who may seek to replace him with an even more radical candidate of their own, most likely in the style of Congesswoman Ilhan Omar.

UPDATE 11/30/2025

As we uncover the layers of fraud, $8 Billion of fraud since 2017 is a low estimate. Fraud investigations may never end but we believe they’ll top $10 Billion by the time we’re done researching.

In the media, we’ve seen that much fraud has been perpetuated by groups of small providers. But we observe that large providers are committing fraud too, but in much more structured ways such as flexing contractual obligations, using DHS insiders to gain an edge in contract procurement, or billing to multiple sources.

We need to also consider fraud by DHS leaders. We are legally required to report fraud but our systems are broken and our leaders are failing at their jobs. It is fraud, waste, abuse when leaders are not competent for their positions, not doing their jobs and oppressing reports of fraud.

***

We are now revising Minnesota DHS fraud predictions to exceed $6.5 billion from 2019 onward. This includes contracts/grants & Medicaid. If we use 2017 as a starting point since that’s when Shireen Gandhi started, predicted fraud in human services clearly exceeds $8 billion.

Despite numerous staff reports to the Office of Inspector General, no follow up was ever provided.

We are overwhelmed by the interest the nation has shown in the fraud occurring in Minnesota. Population wise, we are small but health and human services fraud in our state exceeds that of much larger states like California, New York, Texas & others.

While Tim Walz makes all manner of incorrect statements about Minnesota leading in one way or other, what we really lead in is failed governance. Tim Walz has turned Minnesota into a failed state with deteriorating infrastructure, education and economic metrics, and worst of all, we are failing our most vulnerable citizens by letting cripple state services.

For many years, we reached out to every source available to us to get attention on and help stop fraud. We were lucky to get the Office of the Legislative Auditor, Fraud Committee, certain news outlets and many fine politicians to help shed light on the matter.

Unfortunately, only one DFL member showed interest in fraud – John Hoffman. Contrary to popular belief, we aren’t a political group. But we’ve been continually disappointed in the response we got by the DFL, or lack there of. We hoped for partnership with all political parties but instead, the DFL discredited our reports and pleas. Is protecting your political party or clinging onto power really worth destroying your state?

Many thanks to those who’ve supported us over the years. It’s been an uphill battle that has been uncertain, isolating but one that we aren’t giving up on. We hope that Minnesota will be freed from fraud, good governance is restored and trust in government is rebuilt.

The next step now is to bring in external auditors and new leadership.

Tim Walz has failed Minnesota.

December 1, 2025 – MN AG Keith Ellison on tape promising favors to Somali immigrant fraudsters; later receives campaign cash

Feeding Our Future Illustration (Credit: Photos and photo illustration by Nicole Neri/The Minnesota Reformer)

A 54-minute secret recording from a December 11, 2021, closed-door meeting inside Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison’s official state office is resurfacing amid explosive revelations that 70 Somali community members in Minnesota participated in stealing $250 million in federal COVID child-feeding funds.

On the tape released by American Experiment earlier this year, Ellison sympathizes with, encourages, and ultimately promises assistance to a group of Somali-American business leaders, many of whom would later be charged or convicted in the largest COVID relief fraud scheme in U.S. history.

The fraudulent operation, centered around the notorious nonprofit Feeding Our Future, stole an estimated $250 million in federal child nutrition funds, money intended to feed poor children but instead used to purchase luxury homes, foreign real estate, jewelry, and lavish lifestyles.

The audio reveals Ellison mocking state agency oversight, vowing to “fight” on behalf of the very operators who investigators say were deeply involved in a web of wire fraud, money laundering, and fake meal claims across Minnesota.

Soon after (on December 20, 2021), Keith Ellison’s campaign and that of his son Jeremiah Ellison received campaign donations from individuals linked to Feeding Our Future.

Among those donors was Gandi Yusuf Mohamed, a person publicly identified as tied to laundering over $1.1 M in program funds.

According to American Experiment:

Ellison states on the recording that “we are in the middle of the battle with the agencies now” at 8:59. At 9:07, Ellison asserts that:

Walz agrees with me that this piddly, stupid stuff running small people out of business is terrible.

At 9:22, Ellison can be heard drawing a diagram on a whiteboard.

At 9:50, Ellison agrees with the proposition that there is state agency discrimination against East African businesses.

At 11:30, Ellison brags that:

Just being able to say, just getting the question, just getting the inquiry from the AG is sometimes enough to make people knock it off.

We return to the tawdry subject of coin at the 13:00 mark, where Omar again offers his fundraising assistance to Ellison as a political candidate, apparently while sitting in Ellison’s official government office.

Ellison can be heard (13:29) responding, “That’s right” and (13:56), “Money is freedom.”

[…]

The “ask” of Ellison begins around 43:30. Specifically, the request is for him, in the AG’s statutory role as attorney for state agencies, to intervene on behalf of these small businesses subject to racist government overregulation. At 44:26, Ellison assures his audience, “Of course, I’m here to help,” and at 45:00, “Let’s go fight these people.” Hear the Ellison battle plan.

Ellison claimed the recording was a “smear.” But the tape speaks for itself.

December 1, 2025 – Tim Walz has a new headache – A Somali-run election scam is breaking on local news

(…) Now we’re looking at the next chapter in this Minnesota mess… this time it’s a voter-fraud case that ties politically connected organizers to fake registrations, fake names, fake addresses, and election offices across thirteen counties.

Minnesota has literally become the perfect storm of a weak system, a woke political class, and organized groups who understand the vulnerabilities of our system better than the people who are supposedly running the state do.

And the icing on the cake here is that hundreds of these fake voter applications were submitted in districts including the one represented by American-hating brother-lover, Ilhan Omar.

You have to figure, if the news is saying five hundred, the real number is probably closer to, like, five hundred thousand.

Dallas Express:

The case reportedly involves around 600 fraudulent voter registration applications submitted across multiple counties in Minnesota. Omar’s 5th Congressional District, which includes large portions of Minneapolis and the state’s biggest Somali-American population, was one of the heavily impacted areas.

The voter fraud revelations surface as Minnesota continues to grapple with a series of massive welfare fraud schemes that have cost taxpayers more than $1 billion in recent years. An X account claiming to represent over 480 current Minnesota Department of Human Services employees posted a lengthy thread over the weekend claiming that Gov. Tim Walz is “100% responsible,” as previously reported by DX.

The account wrote verbatim: “Tim Walz is 100% responsible for massive fraud in Minnesota. We let Tim Walz know of fraud early on, hoping for a partnership in stopping fraud but no, we got the opposite response.” It further alleged that “Tim Walz systematically retaliated against whistleblowers using monitoring, threats, repression, and did his best to discredit fraud reports.”

However, sadly, this isn’t the first time Minneapolis has been caught swimming in election muck. James O’Keefe exposed the cash-for-ballots operation back in 2020, when a ballot harvester tied to Omar was filmed handing over two hundred dollars for a general-election ballot. The totals went even higher, with insiders saying some voters were paid as much as eight hundred bucks to deliver the result the machine wanted.

James O’Keefe:

FLASHBACK: Ilhan Omar Connected Harvester SEEN Exchanging $200 for 2020 General Election Ballot.

Our reporting revealed voters in the Somali community being paid as much as $800 to cast votes for @Ilhan

At the time of this report, sources within the Somali community confirmed the cash for ballots scheme being an OPEN SECRET in Minneapolis.

“We don’t care illegal.”

“I was given money so I could vote”

“[@IlhanMN] is the one who came up with all this”

The truth always finds a way out. You can bury it, ignore it, threaten it, or try to smother it behind press conferences and friendly fake media, but eventually it will break through. And right now, the entire lid has been blown off the state of Minnesota. (Read more: Revolver News, 12/2/2025)  (Archive)

December 1, 2025 – Treasury, House panel launch probes into Tim Walz’s handling of $1B food aid fraud — and they could make criminal referrals

A powerful US House committee and the Treasury Department both launched investigations into Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s role in a “massive fraud” scheme that involved Somali immigrants bilking more than $1 billion from taxpayers, they revealed Monday.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) told The Post that his panel “will conduct a thorough investigation into Governor Walz’s failure to safeguard taxpayer dollars” as a result.

“Minnesota Governor Tim Walz was warned about massive fraud in a pandemic food-aid program for children, yet he failed to act. Instead, whistleblowers who raised concerns faced retaliation,” Comer said.

Because of Governor Walz’s negligence, criminals — including Somali terrorists — stole nearly $1 billion from the program while children suffered.”

As chairman of the powerful GOP-led panel, Comer can issue subpoenas and refer alleged crimes to the Department of Justice for potential criminal prosecution. (Read more: Gateway Pundit, 12/1/2025) (Archive)

December 2, 2025 – DHS puts California, New York, and Illinois on notice for failure to honor criminal illegal alien detainers

Todd Lyons (Credit: public domain)

New York’s radical sanctuary policies have reached a catastrophic breaking point.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Director Todd Lyons has issued an explosive letter to New York Attorney General Letitia James, demanding immediate action after state and local officials quietly released nearly 7,000 criminal illegal aliens, including rapists, killers, gang members, and repeat violent offenders, without honoring ICE detainers and without a single notification to federal authorities.

Since January 20, New York has released 6,947 criminal illegal aliens back onto the streets. These offenders are tied to:

29 homicides
2,509 assaults
199 burglaries
305 robberies
392 dangerous drug offenses
300 weapons offenses
207 sexual predatory offenses
Worse, another 7,113 criminal aliens remain in New York custody today, all with active ICE detainers that state officials continue to ignore.

These detainees include:

148 charged with homicide
717 charged with assault
134 charged with burglary
106 charged with robbery
235 dangerous drug offenses
152 weapons offenses
260 sexual predatory offenses

This is a full-scale public safety disaster engineered by far-left officials who are deliberately defying federal law.

ICE sent an urgent letter to Attorney General James in September demanding cooperation. She never responded.

Assistant DHS Secretary Tricia McLaughlin blasted James and New York’s political leadership for releasing predators onto American streets:

“Attorney General James and her fellow New York Sanctuary politicians are releasing murderers, terrorists, and sexual predators back into our neighborhoods and putting American lives at risk.”

“We are calling on Letitia James to stop this dangerous derangement and commit to honoring the ICE arrest detainers of the more than 7,000 criminal illegal aliens in New York’s custody. It is common sense. Criminal illegal aliens should not be released back onto our streets to terrorize more innocent Americans.”

Numerous individuals and nonprofits indicted in the $1 billion Minnesota COVID fraud scandal, including Feeding Our Future, received SBA PPP loans in addition to other state and federal funding.

December 3, 2025 – Biden imported 2,000+ members of Afghan death squads and 7,000+ Taliban civil servants and regime officials

REMIGRATION: First we learn the hard way that Biden imported 2,000+ members of Afghan Death Squads resulting in the death of a National Guard member last week. Now we’re finding out he imported 7,000+ Taliban civil servants and regime officials.

Biden’s DHS and State Department created sweeping exemptions covering Afghans who worked for the Taliban during the first regime (1996-2001) and again after August 2021, enabling hundreds of individuals normally barred under terrorism laws to enter the U.S. TRIG waivers skyrocketed to 6,848 in FY 2024, the vast majority for refugees, including 374 Taliban civil servants and more than 3,000 individuals who provided “limited” support to Tier 1 or 2 terror groups. Now, after the ambush killing of a West Virginia National Guard soldier by Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal, critics say Biden knowingly imported massive security risks into American neighborhoods.

A federal grand jury in Oklahoma City has charged Tashella Sheri Amore Dickerson with wire fraud and money laundering, U.S. Attorney Robert J. Troester announced on Thursday.

“The Department of Justice is committed to unraveling and prosecuting fraud in the Black Lives Matter organization, and this case illustrates how some in the group’s leadership allegedly used donor money to bankroll their own lifestyles,” Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said in a statement provided exclusively to Breitbart News. “We have zero tolerance for any kind of fraud perpetrated against the American people and will continue bringing fraudsters to justice as cases arise.”

“This FBI is committed to following the money and pursuing bad actors who perpetrate fraud on the American people,” FBI Director Kash Patel added in a statement to Breitbart News. “The defendant in this case allegedly used their position in Black Lives Matter to steal donor money and enrich their own lifestyle. No one is above the law and we will continue to work with our Department of Justice partners to pursue every last fraudster responsible for this conduct.”

Dickerson, 52, has served beginning in 2016 as the executive director of Black Lives Matter Oklahoma City (BLMOKC). The press release announcing the indictment, obtained by Breitbart News ahead of its public release, notes that she had access to BLMOKC’s bank, PayPal, and CashApp accounts.

The press release then details how the organization was structured and what its finances were supposed to be used for.

“The Indictment alleges that, although BLMOKC was not a registered tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, it accepted charitable donations through its affiliation with the Alliance for Global Justice (AFGJ), based in Arizona. AFGJ served as a fiscal sponsor to BLMOKC and required BLMOKC to use its funds only as permitted by Section 501(c)(3). AFGJ also required BLMOKC to fully account upon request for the disbursement of all funds received and prohibited BLMOKC from using its funds to purchase real estate without AFGJ’s consent,” the Justice Department release states. “Beginning in late spring 2020, BLMOKC raised funds to support its social justice mission from online donors, as well as from national bail funds. In total, BLMOKC raised more than $5.6 million, which included grants from national bail funds, including the Community Justice Exchange, Massachusetts Bail Fund, and Minnesota Freedom Fund. Most of those funds were routed through AFGJ, as fiscal sponsor, to BLMOKC. According to the Indictment, BLMOKC was supposed to use these national bail fund grants to post pretrial bail for individuals arrested in connection with protests for racial justice after the death of George Floyd. When bail funds were returned to BLMOKC, the national bail funds sometimes allowed BLMOKC to keep all or a portion of the grant funding to establish a revolving bail fund, or for BLMOKC’s social justice mission, as permitted by Section 501(c)(3).”

Instead of following what the group was supposed to do, though, officials allege that Dickerson transferred more than $2 million into her personal accounts over more than five years.

(…) The grand jury on Dec. 3 of this year returned a 25-count indictment against Dickerson, charging her with 20 counts of wire fraud and five counts of money laundering. Per the release, she faces an astonishingly high amount of fines and prison time if convicted. “For each count of wire fraud, Dickerson faces up to 20 years in federal prison, and a fine of up to $250,000,” the release states. “For each count of money laundering, Dickerson faces up to ten years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000 or twice the amount of the criminally derived property involved in the transaction.” (Read bore: Breitbart News, 12/11/2025)  (Archive)

December 3, 2025 – Tax court consolidates Clinton Foundation whistleblower cases, signaling progress towards trial

Clinton Foundation Whistleblowers: Doyle, Moynihan vs. IRS in a December 2018 Congressional hearing. (Credit: Fox News)

A judge has agreed to consolidate two cases brought by whistleblowers against the IRS, alleging the tax agency failed to provide them with an award for information on the Clinton Foundation, according to court documents reviewed by Just the News.

The decision, which was not opposed by the IRS, indicates that the trial is moving forward.

The cases were brought by retired federal agent John Moynihan and private fraud expert Larry Doyle and have wound their way through the U.S. Tax Court for years.

(…) Earlier this month in the U.S. Tax Court shows the Chief Judge has ordered several disparate cases associated with the Clinton Foundation information be consolidated into one, setting the stage for a trial, according to a filing reviewed by Just the News.

Judge Patrick J. Urda (Credit: public domain)

In the filing, the Chief Judge of the U.S. Tax Court Patrick J. Urda ordered all the parties to submit a report on the “present status” of these cases by Jan. 9, 2026, indicating that the challenge is progressing.

You can read the filing below:

So far, still unresolved

The Tax Court had tentatively scheduled a Dec. 1 trial, but met unexpected resistance from the Trump administration.  The Internal Revenue Service under Trump filed a motion in August in the case arguing that as a matter of administrative and procedural law, the judge should not let the case proceed to trial because after an initial review, the IRS declined to look into the whistleblower complaint and, therefore, the plaintiffs had no standing to sue.

So far, it appears the court has not ruled on that motion to dismiss the case, according to the court docket.

Doyle told Just the News in August that that latest twist is just another example of the resistance the government has displayed to investigating the Clinton Foundation over many years.

“Not surprising that the IRS would seek to dismiss our case in this fashion simply because that is the same tactic the IRS deployed in our initial case ongoing now almost 6 years in US Tax Court and growing more serious everyday,” he said.

“The simple fact is the more the American public learns about the Clinton Foundation as it has in recent days, the more it is entitled to know all the truth and facts involved,” he added.

Moynihan and Doyle first detailed the findings from their investigation in that December 2018 testimony before a House committee.

December 2, 2025 – Loomer: Secretary of Army’s office is plotting coup to replace Pete Hegseth with Dan Driscoll

SECRETARY OF THE ARMY’S OFFICE PLOTTING COUP AT THE PENTAGON TO REMOVE @SecWar PETE HEGSETH AND REPLACE HIM WITH @SecArmy DAN DRISCOLL 🚨

Individuals in the office of US Army Secretary Dan Driscoll have been orchestrating a Coup against Secretary of War Pete Hegseth @PeteHegseth in an effort to have him removed by President Trump and replaced by Dan Driscoll.

Over the last 2 weeks, the legacy media, which is incredibly hostile to Hegseth, has been posting puff pieces about Dan Driscoll and how he is a “rising star” at the Pentagon. Sources have told me that Jake Sullivan @jakejsullivan, the former National Security Advisor of the United States under Joe Biden, is very close friends with Dan Driscoll, and they have been friends since they both attended Yale Law School. Driscoll and Vice President Vance also met at Yale Law School, which is how Driscoll was nominated as Army Secretary.

Vice President JD Vance swears in Dan Driscoll as Secretary of Army February 25, 2025. (Credit: Official Secretary of the Army X account)

High level sources at the Pentagon have confirmed to me that Sullivan has been planting stories in support of Driscoll because Sullivan wants Hegseth removed and replaced by Driscoll. Sullivan is worried Hegseth and President Trump are going to take action against the seditious 6, the 6 Democrat lawmakers who are now facing federal inquiries and an FBI investigation after they recorded a video in November 2025 urging US military service members not to follow “unlawful” orders, a message President Trump and Pete Hegseth have called “seditious.”

One of the seditious 6 is Democrat Congresswoman Maggie Goodlander @RepGoodlander (D-NH), the wife of Jake Sullivan who goes by a different last name to hide the fact that she is married to Jake Sullivan. It is worth noting that Goodlander is a Naval Reserve Intelligence Officer, which means she could possibly face disciplinary action by Hegseth for her seditious behavior.

Goodlander and Sullivan got married in 2015. Some of guests at their wedding include Hillary Clinton, Lisa Monaco, Huma Abedin, Samantha Power, Victoria Nuland, and Antony Blinken, all of whom are anti-Trump Deep State operatives.

Sullivan previously served as Director of Policy to President Barack Obama, National Security Advisor to then-Vice President Biden and Deputy Chief of Staff to Secretary @HillaryClinton at the U.S. State Department. Sullivan also served as senior advisor for the Iran nuclear negotiations and as a senior policy advisor to Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign against Donald Trump.

Hegseth has accused these 6 Democrat lawmakers of committing sedition, and he is even considering court marshaling Senator Mark Kelly @SenMarkKelly, one of the seditious 6.

According to FEC records, Congresswoman Maggie Goodlander, the wife of Jake Sullivan, donated a max donation of $2,800 to Dan Driscoll when he ran for Congress in 2020 in North Carolina.

Why would an anti-Trump, Democrat Congresswoman married to Jake Sullivan, one of the architects of the Russia Collusion hoax, donate to a Republican candidate for Congress who would later move on to be President Trump’s Army Secretary?

Jake Sullivan played a central role in the Clinton campaign’s efforts to promote the Trump-Russia collusion story, including feeding journalists details about the fabricated Alfa Bank–Trump server allegations and linking the campaign to the discredited Steele dossier—claims that triggered years of investigations and were ultimately exposed as a partisan hoax. Additionally, as I previously reported, Driscoll posted a photo of himself earlier this year hanging out with Eugene Vindman, who collaborated with his brother Alexander Vindman to impeach President Trump over false allegations.

Now, Sullivan is working with high level Army officials in Army Secretary Dan Driscoll’s office to force Pete Hegseth out and install Dan Driscoll as Secretary of War, despite the fact that President Trump loves Pete Hegseth.

I will be asking about this attempted coup on Pete Hegseth at the upcoming Pentagon Press Briefing this week.

December 3, 2025 – Rubio: Iran and Hezbollah are operating from inside Venezuela

Senator Marco Rubio just issued one of the starkest warnings yet — and it changes the entire picture of the Venezuela crisis:

“The Venezuelan regime is a source of instability in the entire region…
Iran, its IRGC, and even Hezbollah have a presence in South America —
and their anchor presence is inside Venezuela.”

Let that sink in.

8 million Venezuelans displaced

Spillover into Colombia, Brazil, the U.S.

Cartels, trafficking networks, and Iranian intelligence embedded in the region

Rubio isn’t speaking hypothetically — he’s confirming what U.S. intel has known for years:

Venezuela is no longer just a failed socialist state.
It’s a forward operating base for Iran and Hezbollah in the Western Hemisphere.

This is why the situation is escalating.
This is why Trump’s ultimatum matters.
This is why Maduro’s regime cannot be ignored or “managed.”

The threat isn’t local — it’s global.

Venezuela is just the opening salvo into what will be the elimination of Deep State from the Western Hemisphere… this is complex, but relatively easy to follow… read what I typed up below then read the threads below…

Venezuela became the Western Hemisphere hub for a full-spectrum foreign influence network that extends far beyond Iran and Hezbollah… the IRGC runs covert logistics, forged documents, and intelligence staging from inside the regime…

China’s port control, telecom access, and debt leverage ride the same corruption corridors… Russia embeds military advisers, cyber operators, and energy technicians through overlapping rails…

Cuban intelligence runs the internal security architecture…

Nicaragua provides diplomatic shelter and deep-water access… Israeli-linked intelligence contractors and private security outfits used by oligarchs, Caribbean banks, and regional power brokers have also operated in this zone for years, exploiting financial opacity and shipping lanes to run dual-use technology, surveillance tools, and political influence campaigns across the islands…
This field widened because the Caribbean narco corridor acts as the connective tissue… here is how… cartels move cash, weapons, migrants, and illicit shipments that foreign intelligence services hide inside…

The EU appears through banking havens, shipping registries, aid channels, and “governance NGOs” that mask financial flows feeding political networks in Venezuela, Suriname, Guyana, and the islands…

The ecosystem became a shared shadow platform… Iranian operators moving side by side with cartel logistics, Russian cyber nodes riding on Caribbean telecom hubs, Chinese surveillance infrastructure parked across ports, Cuban officers managing Maduro’s inner security ring, and private Israeli-linked intelligence contractors plugged into offshore finance and political mediation… see it?

Nothing here is isolated… every actor uses the same permissive environment… this is why escalation hits a different register now…

Eight million displaced Venezuelans, destabilized borders, weaponized migration lanes into the US, and a hemisphere-wide footprint of foreign services reveal a region treated as a forward operating base by adversarial states and opportunistic global players…

Rubio’s statement is an admission that the architecture is real… Trump’s ultimatum lands into a field saturated with Iran’s proxies, China’s maritime influence, Russia’s military anchors, Cuban control grids, EU financial scaffolds, and Israeli-linked intelligence intermediaries embedded in the Caribbean’s offshore world…

The Western Hemisphere is being reopened and recalibrated… the map is no longer hidden.. read below thread to see the mapping – it is very clear…

December 3, 2025 – Senator Mark Kelly’s twin brother is connected to Zelensky’s aide Andriy Yermak who recently resigned for corruption

(…) We may have the reason Senator Mark Kelly went out on a seditious limb.  It may be because he and his twin brother are in a lot of trouble after embezzling billions in Ukraine.

Zelensky enlisted Senator Mark Kelly’s twin brother to raise $2.8B for a USAID-created propaganda arm targeting US voters and politicians. Much of the money moves anonymously via crypto. Observers note the conflict of interest: the brother of Sen. Mark Kelly helping run a foreign influence operation targeting the very government his twin serves in.

United24, created by Ukraine’s Ministry of Digital Transformation using a USAID-funded infrastructure, appointed Scott Kelly, Senator Mark Kelly’s twin brother, as its ambassador to help raise money for the propaganda outlet. Since then it has raised $2.72 billion, much of it routed quietly via cryptocurrency. United24 produces coordinated messaging marketed as “fact-checking” and “anti-corruption efforts,” but in practice operates as a state propaganda engine shaping US public opinion and Congressional support for Ukraine’s war.

December 3, 2025 – Jack Smith is subpoenaed by the House Judiciary Committee regarding his prosecutions of Donald Trump

On December 3, 2025, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) issued the subpoena, demanding Smith’s appearance for a closed-door deposition on December 17, 2025.

It also requires production of all documents and communications from Smith’s tenure as special counsel, focusing on his investigations into Trump’s handling of classified documents and the 2020 election interference (including the January 6 Capitol events).

Republicans, including Jordan, have described these probes as “partisan and politically motivated,” alleging weaponization of the Justice Department under the Biden administration.

This follows earlier non-binding requests for testimony in October 2025, which evolved into a formal subpoena after perceived extreme resistance from Smith’s team.

Smith, was appointed in July 2023 by Attorney General Merrick Garland, dropped both cases after Trump’s 2024 election win, citing DOJ policy against prosecuting sitting presidents.

The subpoena aligns with broader Republican oversight into alleged prosecutorial abuses, including subpoenas targeting Republican lawmakers’ records during the investigations.

Democrats, like Ranking Member Jamie Raskin, have wrongly criticized it as an attempt to undermine DOJ independence without evidence of wrongdoing.

Recent X posts from December 3 confirm the development, with users like @LeadingReport and @HuffPost highlighting the subpoena’s focus on accountability for “weaponizing the government against Republicans, even targeting senators’ cell phone records.”

December 3, 2025 – $21 billion in Obamacare subsidies can’t be traced to actual people

Government Accountability Office decided to see if anyone’s actually watching the store. So they made 20 completely fictitious applicants – no real people, no documentation, just testing if the system would notice.

18 of them are still actively covered. September 2025. Monthly payout: over $10,000. GAO’s just…monitoring them.

Because apparently nobody at HHS has.

No SSN? Fine. No proof of citizenship? Whatever. No income documentation? Come on in. GAO literally wrote in their report: “[We] did not provide documentation yet received coverage.”

They’re not even hiding it – they got benefits with nothing. The system just said yes.

Now check the real-world damage. In 2023, 29,000 Social Security numbers somehow got used for multiple full-year coverage plans.

By 2024? That jumped to 68,000. Someone’s running the same number through the machine twice, three times, however many times it takes, and the alarms aren’t going off.

Then there’s the $94 million that went to dead people in 2023. Not “accounts tied to people who died recently and the paperwork hasn’t caught up” – straight up deceased recipients.

Death certificates filed, funerals held, checks still clearing.

But here’s the really wild part: GAO tried to track $21 billion in subsidies from 2023 back to actual Social Security numbers. Couldn’t do it.

21 billion dollars just floating out there with no clear connection to who’s supposed to be getting it.

The system allows multiple enrollments per SSN “to help ensure actual SSN-holder can enroll in cases of identity theft or data entry errors.”

In other words: we built in workarounds so generous that fraud looks identical to legitimate use.

Now Congress is fighting over whether to extend these enhanced COVID subsidies past December 31. Cost to keep them? $30 billion annually.

24 million people enrolled, over 90% getting subsidies. Without extension, premiums spike overnight and 22 million people might lose coverage.

Republicans looking at GAO’s findings saying: this is exactly why we shouldn’t pour another $30B into a system that can’t tell fake accounts from real ones.

Democrats saying: you’re going to kick 22 million people off insurance because less than 1% is fraud?

Both sides kinda have a point. Yeah, the fraud’s under 1% of total enrollees.

But when you’re burning $30B yearly and literally cannot verify where $21B went, “less than 1%” stops sounding so minor.

Senate vote coming this week. Expected to fail. Which means scramble for short-term extension, fight continues into 2026 budget battles, and absolutely nothing changes about fraud controls.

Because here’s what nobody wants to say out loud: the system isn’t designed to catch fraud.

It’s designed to maximize enrollment.

When your mandate is “get people covered,” asking too many questions becomes the enemy. Verification slows things down.

Documentation creates barriers. Better to let a few fake accounts slip through than risk denying real people who need coverage.

So GAO’s 18 fictional enrollees will keep collecting their $10K monthly until someone at HHS manually shuts them down.

Which requires someone at HHS to actually read GAO reports.

Which requires someone at HHS to care more about fraud than enrollment numbers.

Don’t hold your breath. By next year, GAO will run the same test. Find the same results. Write the same warnings.

And Congress will have the same fight about whether feeding money into a system that can’t track where it goes is compassionate policy or expensive theater.

Meanwhile, somewhere in America, a completely imaginary person just got their subsidized premium renewed for 2026.

Rampant waste, fraud, and abuse have worsened health care for Americans using Affordable Care Act (ACA) marketplace plans while enriching big insurance companies, according to a new preliminary report by the Government Accountability Office (GAO).

The new watchdog investigation finds large-scale systemic failures that allow fake identities, dead people, and massive improper use of Social Security numbers to receive Obamacare subsidies. As part of the analysis, GAO conducted covert operations which even included creating fictitious identities that flooded health insurers with unjustified subsidies. In fact, 100 percent of fake applicants were approved by the ACA marketplace as recently as late 2024, and 90 percent of fake applicants continue to receive coverage in 2025.

According to the report, such practices can result in wasteful federal spending on subsidies for enrollees who are not eligible. Further, such practices can result in harm and unexpected costs for consumers. These can include loss of access to medical providers and medications, higher copayments and deductibles, or repayment of subsidies if income or other eligibility was misrepresented.

Chairman of House Ways and Means Rep. Jason Smith MO

The GAO investigation was requested by Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith (MO-08), Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Brett Guthrie (KY-02), and Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (OH-04).

Chairman Smith said:

“While Democrats defend waste, fraud, and abuse, Republicans are taking action to lower health care costs and protect care for all real, living Americans. GAO’s troubling report is the smoking gun that shows how this broken system, shielded by Democrat policies, has led to the federal government shoveling tens of billions of tax dollars to insurance companies through identity fraud and caused health care costs to skyrocket for all Americans.

“While Obamacare fraud is being confirmed by GAO, CMS, CBO and other outside reports, patients are suffering. They face higher health care costs and denied claims or delayed care when their providers struggle to verify which insurance is valid due to these fraud schemes. Rather than simply rubber stamp more bad spending and failed policies, we must take action to prevent further harm.”

Chairman Guthrie said: 

“Republicans have consistently prioritized protecting patients and taxpayers by ridding our federal health programs of the waste, fraud, and abuse that ultimately drive up costs for patients.

“Republicans have sounded the alarm on the flawed structural integrity of Obamacare and how Democrats’ failed policies to temporarily prop up the program have exacerbated fraud, hurt patients, increased the burden on American taxpayers, and artificially masked the true health care affordability crisis plaguing Americans today.

“The concerning findings from GAO’s report further confirm that Republican efforts to strengthen, secure, and sustain our federal health programs are critical and necessary to ensure access to quality health care at prices Americans can afford.”

Chairman Jordan said: 

“For years, we were told we could keep our plan, keep our doctor, and premiums would go down. None of it happened. This new report confirms what we already knew: under Obamacare, hardworking Americans saw their premiums skyrocket and their healthcare choices shrink, all while fraud benefitted insurance companies. Obamacare was built on lies and broken promises that hurt families and drove up costs.”

GAO investigated the scope of improper payments and weakened program integrity within the ACA marketplace. Estimates based on analysis by both the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) and independent external research organizations indicate millions of enrollees in the ACA marketplaces may be enrolled improperly, costing taxpayers as much as $27 billion a year in improper payments and imposing a great deal of harm and distress on families and victims of alleged fraud.

The Details:

Investigators Created Fake Identities – and CMS Provided Taxpayer Subsidies

  • GAO created fictitious identities with fake or never issued SSNs and still got subsidized ACA coverage, meaning criminals and fraudsters can too.
    • 100 percent of fake applicants were approved in late 2024.
    • 18 out of 20 fake applicants are still receiving subsidized coverage for 2025.
    • Marketplaces approved coverage even when no documents were requested or fake documents were submitted.
      • This includes fake citizenship eligibility documents confirming fraud concerns for illegal immigrants.
    • Brokers were able to bypass verification by calling the call center and submitting applications without the applicant present.
    • Monthly subsidies paid to health insurers on behalf of GAO’s fake identities exceeded $12,300 per month.

Shocking Misuse of Social Security Numbers Including a Single Social Security Number Used for Over 125 Policies for the Equivalent of 71 Years

  • One Social Security Number (SSN) was used for “71 years” of subsidized coverage.
    • In 2023, one single SSN was used on applications for over 125 insurance policies totaling over 26,000 days of coverage, the equivalent of 71 years.
    • 66,000 SSNs in 2024 had more than a years’ worth of subsidized coverage.
    • CMS does not block new applications using the same SSN and relies on a broken document-request process that often never works.
    • $21 billion in subsidies paid out with no evidence of tax reconciliation in 2023. That is 32 percent of all advanced premium tax credits (APTC) paid to identifiable SSN holders. No reconciliation means no accountability, no verification, and likely billions in improper payments.

Big Insurers Still Collecting Subsidies for Deceased Individuals

  • 58,000 SSNs receiving APTC matched Social Security death data.
  • At least 7,000 were dead before coverage even began, meaning the applications used SSNs of deceased individuals.
  • $94 million in taxpayer-funded subsidies were sent to health insurers on behalf of deceased individuals.

Explosive Growth in Unauthorized Plan Switches that Harm Consumers

  • Bad actors engaged in mass unauthorized enrollment activity to chase commissions, resulting in:
    • 160,000 likely unauthorized changes by three or more brokers in 2024.
    • CMS itself received 275,000 complaints in just eight months (Jan–Aug 2024) from Americans who were enrolled in or switched into plans without their consent.

Repeated Warnings Have Gone Unheeded by Democrats

  • GAO has repeatedly warned that Obamacare subsidies are and have been at risk of fraud structurally.
  • For 2015 enrollment, GAO found that federal and state marketplaces approved coverage for fictitious applicants, and nearly all of those fake identities stayed enrolled even after submitting fictitious documents or no documents at all.
  • For 2016 enrollment, GAO again reported that CMS had failed to design basic eligibility safeguards, including controls to stop duplicate or overlapping subsidized coverage.
  • These weaknesses were supercharged after Democrats enacted and repeatedly extended Biden’s COVID-era subsidy expansions, which facilitated millions of fully subsidized fraudulent enrollments, and without corresponding fraud controls, created the perfect environment for criminals, identity thieves, and unscrupulous brokers.

With Stronger Integrity for Taxpayers, Republicans Have Taken Steps to Lower Premiums

Republicans are focused on restoring accountability and fairness to the health care marketplace through program integrity reforms that save taxpayers billions of dollars and drive down costs for everyone:

  • Full income and eligibility verification before subsidies are issued, ensuring assistance goes only to those who qualify.
  • Ending “anytime” enrollment abuse that fueled fraudulent sign-ups and drove premiums higher for everyone.
  • Closing loopholes that allowed illegal immigrants and other ineligible groups to access taxpayer-funded health benefits.

Even the Congressional Budget Office has found that these measures have already produced $185 billion in savings for taxpayers and reduced premiums by 0.6 percent. That’s real savings for working families.

December 4, 2025 – FBI arrests suspect in DC pipe bomb case after 5-year investigation

The FBI has arrested a Virginia ‘anarchist’ suspect named Brian Cole in connection with several pipe bombs laid near Capitol Hill on the eve of the January 6, 2021 riots.

Cole was identified as the suspect on Thursday morning – as sources told MS Now has been linked to support for anarchist ideologies.

The suspect has been charged with laying explosives outside the Democratic and Republican National Committee headquarters, which did not detonate.

Cole is a resident of Woodbridge, Virginia, and he was arrested in the early hours of Thursday morning. The exact charges are not yet clear, and Cole is expected in court later Thursday.

The arrest marks the first major breakthrough in the five-year investigation that had baffled the agency and sparked a wave of conspiracy theories.

It comes weeks after the FBI offered a $500,000 reward for leads to identify the suspect, when authorities shared previously unreleased footage of the perp stalking the streets of Washington DC the night before the infamous riots.

However, the arrest was reportedly not the result of a new breakthrough in the investigation, but came after the FBI reviewed existing evidence it had collected in 2021 and 2022.

Law enforcement sources said that Cole’s arrest may cause embarrassment for the FBI because the suspect could have been arrested years ago if investigators had pieced together existing evidence.

(…) While the arrest could cause embarrassment for investigators who failed to identify the suspect for years, it is likely to be lauded by the Trump White House after it poured new resources into the case earlier this year.

In particular, Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino has often spoke of his desire to solve the case, including previously speculating that it may have been an ‘inside job.’

The hunt for the suspect was one of the largest in FBI history, and investigators struggled for years to piece together evidence collected in the chaotic aftermath of the January 6 riots.

This included subpoenaing box store retailers for credit card data to find customers who bought specific kinds of battery connectors used to manufacture the bombs.

Agents tracked down purchasers of the battery connectors to those whose phones were locate near the DNC and RNC headquarters at the time the bombs were planted, but the FBI found there was no credible match.  (Read more: Daily Mail, 12/4/2025)  (Archive)

December 5, 2025 – A federal judge unseals the Epstein grand jury files in South Florida

December 5, 2025 – Top Barack Obama DEA official indicted in narco-terrorism conspiracy to launder millions

The Department of Justice announced Friday that a former senior Drug Enforcement Administration official has been indicted on charges that include conspiracy to engage in narcoterrorism, money laundering, and conspiracy to distribute cocaine.

Federal prosecutors say the alleged conduct occurred after his retirement near the end of the Obama administration.

DEA Administrator Terrance C. Cole and U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton of the Southern District of New York released details of the indictment against Paul Campo, who previously served as Deputy Chief of the Office of Financial Operations at the DEA.

According to the DOJ, Campo agreed to assist the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG) in laundering $12 million in proceeds from drug trafficking.

Prosecutors say he also provided guidance to the cartel on obtaining drones and assault rifles after an associate, Robert Sensi, connected him with someone they believed represented the organization.

In the news release, Cole addressed the allegations directly.

“The alleged conduct occurred after he left DEA and was unrelated to his official duties here, but any former agent who chooses to engage in criminal activity dishonors the men and women who serve with integrity and undermines the public’s confidence in law enforcement,” Cole said.

“We will not look the other way simply because someone once wore this badge. There is no tolerance and no excuse for this kind of betrayal.”

Former Senior DEA Official Indicted For Conspiring To Provide Material Support To A Foreign Terrorist Organ… by Red Voice News

The indictment outlines covert meetings between Campo, Sensi, and the person they believed to be a cartel representative.

Prosecutors say Campo and Sensi advised on laundering millions through cryptocurrency purchases, real estate investments, and pre-paid gift cards.

According to the DOJ, the pair participated in three transactions totaling $750,000 and believed the completion of the third transaction would trigger a shipment of approximately $5 million worth of cocaine.

How the EU has targeted Elon Musk and 𝕏 over the years:

→ June 2023: The EU audited 𝕏’s safety systems and flagged weaknesses in handling hate speech and disinformation.

→ October 2023: The EU issued a warning letter accusing 𝕏 of spreading misinformation during the Israel Hamas conflict.

→ July 2024: The EU offered 𝕏 an illegal secret deal stating that if 𝕏 quietly censored speech without informing the public, they would not fine 𝕏.

→ August 2024: The EU attempted to stop Elon Musk from hosting a live Space on 𝕏 with President Donald Trump.

Why are they afraid of @elonmusk? Why do they fear a platform that gives people a real voice?

December 5, 2025 – America and the EU are no longer aligned on the censorship-by-proxy strategy – America dodges global totalitarianism…for now

WHAT A LEADING U.S. LAW PROFESSOR JUST REVEALED 🚨

A major warning was issued this week—not by activists, not by commentators, but by one of America’s leading constitutional law professors.

He was just in Berlin, and what he described is chilling.

He said only TWO people at the World Forum were defending free speech… and the rest of the room was demanding coordinated censorship—not just across Europe, but against Americans.

And here is what he testified:

European regulators want U.S. speech controlled by EU law

Platforms are being threatened with ruinous fines

International bodies now expect enforcement against U.S. citizens

Silence is being globalised through regulation, not debate

He also stated that Hillary Clinton personally intensified this push—calling on the EU to weaponise the Digital Services Act when Elon Musk acquired Twitter.

Think about that:

A former U.S. presidential candidate urging a FOREIGN authority to pressure an American company into censoring U.S. citizens.

According to this professor, what is happening is not organic—it is strategic.

He said the Berlin gathering was “the most anti-free-speech event” he had ever attended.

He warned that:

“This is how censorship becomes internationalised.”

Not through law in Washington.
Not through court rulings.
But through transnational regulatory power overriding domestic rights.

As he put it:

“Free speech isn’t falling—it’s being dismantled.”

This is not speculation.

This is testimony—firsthand—from someone who was in the room.

Defending free expression is no longer optional—it is urgent.

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 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.

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)

– 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.

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?

♦️ 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.”

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.”

(Archive, 1/2023)

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 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.

“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

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. The title of Rosa Brooks’s Washington Post piece is suggestive, prompting us to wonder whether it is a prediction or a threat: “What’s the Worst that Could Happen: The Election Will Likely Spark Violence and a Constitutional Crisis:”

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.

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 – 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.

DNI Tulsi Gabbard Delivers a Bold, Succinct and Important Speech to the TPUSA Audience

 

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.”

December 20, 2025 – Mike Benz cracks open Jeffrey Epstein’s spy services mystery

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.

This is from a huge 5-hour stream that I’ll be uploading separately tomorrow.

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.”

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.

UPDATE 12/28/2025

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

“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.

“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.
