Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has today been arrested on his 66th birthday and is in custody after a raid on his new Sandringham home.

Thames Valley Police held the eighth in line to the British throne on suspicion of misconduct in public office this morning.

The Daily Mail was the first to reveal plain-clothes police, carried in six unmarked vehicles, had arrived at Wood Farm, where Andrew now lives, at 8am this morning.

A convoy including at least two royal Land Rovers linked to Andrew was photographed leaving the estate less than an hour later. His arrest was confirmed at 10.08am.

For the past ten days, detectives have been probing his conduct as a trade envoy for the UK after emails in the Epstein Files suggested he shared confidential information with his paedophile friend, including reports of his official visits and potential investment opportunities.

A Thames Valley spokesman said today: ‘We have today arrested a man in his sixties from Norfolk on suspicion of misconduct in public office’.

The force said its officers are searching an address in Norfolk – believed to be Wood Farm, where Andrew is exiled – and an address in Berkshire, likely to be Royal Lodge in Windsor, where he lived for more than 20 years until this month.

‘The man remains in police custody at this time’, the spokesman said – but the force would not confirm where Andrew, who is celebrating his birthday today, had been taken.

Norfolk Police said it is ‘supporting’ the Thames Valley investigation but did not say if one of its stations was being used by detectives to interview Andrew.

Thames Valley Assistant Chief Constable Oliver Wright said: ‘Following a thorough assessment, we have now opened an investigation into this allegation of misconduct in public office.

‘It is important that we protect the integrity and objectivity of our investigation as we work with our partners to investigate this alleged offence.

‘We understand the significant public interest in this case, and we will provide updates at the appropriate time.’

February 19, 2026 - New evidence shows Maurene Comey ordered New Mexico officials to shut down investigation into Epstein’s Zorro Ranch

Maurene Comey, the daughter of disgraced former FBI Director James Comey Ordered New Mexico Officials to Shut Down Investigation Into Epstein’s Zorro Ranch In 2019.

New evidence has emerged showing that federal prosecutors ordered New Mexico investigators to shut down their probe into Jeffrey Epstein’s New Mexico ranch in 2019.

The discovery is raising new questions about how the federal government handled key aspects of the Epstein investigation.

The order came from then-Assistant U.S. Attorney Maurene Comey, the daughter of disgraced former FBI Director James Comey. – David Harris Jr.

(…) Former New Mexico Attorney General Hector Balderas launched an investigation but was asked to halt it in July 2019 by the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Maureen Comey, the daughter of former FBI director James Comey.

According to a Sept. 8, 2019, redacted email, her office said it “spoke with the New Mexico AG’s office back in July 2019. In essence, they agreed to cease any investigation into sex trafficking and share whatever they had gathered to date regarding sex trafficking activity with our office. We agreed that they were free. To proceed with whatever other investigations unrelated to sex trafficking they may have concerning Epstein and told them that at the conclusion of our case, we would pass along any information we may have gathered about the state crimes that were committed in their jurisdiction.”

In a letter to Comey obtained by The Center Square, Balderas provided documents of “police reports, recorded witness interviews, correspondence amongst New Mexico State agencies, and documents related to Epstein’s leasing of New Mexico public lands.” The Trump administration redacted Comey’s name even though it was public knowledge that she was the US attorney at the time. Her office said it was interviewing Epstein victims based on the information Balderas provided, according to an Oct. 11, 2019, email. In 2020, Balderas was still providing information. No charges were brought; no search warrants were issued to search Zorro ranch. (Read more: The Center Square, 2/19/2026)

February 20, 2026 - CIA retracts 19 intel reports exposing political bias in Obama-Biden spy agencies

QUIET NEWS.
The DEI era masquerading as Intelligence Is OVER.

For over a decade, the CIA blazed through taxpayer dollars while national security emphasis was on Democrats woke bias versus real threats.

Under Dir. John Ratcliffe’s leadership, the CIA just retracted or gutted 19 bogus intelligence reports loaded with systemic leftist bias.

The reports were deliberate radical activist inserts, slipped into our intel pipeline.

Here’s a peek at the three declassified (redacted versions out for all to see):
👉Frenzy over LGBT activists in the Middle East as some grand strategic crisis
👉Smearing traditional family values and “white violent extremism” (code for painting conservative men/women/mothers/fathers as radicals)
👉Linking COVID-era contraception shortages in poor countries to global planet and economic doom

The DEI poison spanned Obama, Trump 1.0, and Joe years, proving the fat cat bureaucratic rot was deeply rooted and systemic.

The same crew that pushed the Russia-Russia hoax and ignored real enemies like China now gets exposed for turning spy work into social justice pamphlets.

Ratcliffe isn’t playing: “There is absolutely no room for bias in our work.”

The President’s Intelligence Advisory Board reviewed hundreds, flagged these 19 for failing basic impartiality and tradecraft. 17 fully yanked, 2 heavily revised. Analyst training is being overhauled.

Sen. Tom Cotton was spot-on: ‘We’ve missed real dangers while bureaucrats obsessed over “pandemic contraceptive shortfalls.”
Those days are over.
The swamp’s favorite politicized “intelligence”—just got defanged. Transparency. Objectivity. America First priorities are being restored. 🇺🇸

Story By Todd Cefaratti @TrumpDailyPosts 2.21.26

Trump just exposed massive bias in the Obama-Biden spy agencies. President Donald J. Trump shared a bombshell link on Truth Social, pointing straight to a Just the News article that lays bare how the CIA has finally started cleaning house. In a historic move, the agency under Director John Ratcliffe retracted or revised nineteen intelligence reports from the Obama, Trump, and Biden years, admitting they were riddled with political bias and fell short of basic standards for impartiality. This isn’t some minor tweak; it’s a long-overdue admission that spy agencies got weaponized against Regular Americans during those administrations.

The reports pulled focused on hot-button cultural stuff far removed from real national security threats. We’re talking assessments pushing DEI nonsense, like one claiming white women in traditional motherhood roles were getting radicalized into racially motivated violent extremism. Another warned about contraceptive shortfalls during the pandemic in a pro-abortion tone, citing Planned Parenthood and Guttmacher Institute multiple times. There was even one on LGBT activists facing pressure in the Middle East, sourced from sketchy outlets. Seventeen of these got permanently deleted from use, and two were fixed and re-released. Three examples were declassified and made public to show just how bad it got.

A senior CIA official didn’t mince words: these products had “inappropriate insertion of DEI issues and other distractions” that undercut objective analysis. Under prior administrations, the agency let politics creep in, turning intelligence work into something that sounded more like activist talking points than hard facts. Director Ratcliffe made it clear there’s no room for bias in CIA work, and when they spot failures in analytic rigor, they fix the record. This comes after last year’s lessons-learned review slammed how the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment on Russian election interference included the debunked Steele Dossier, despite internal objections. Former Director John Brennan pushed for narrative consistency over solid tradecraft, and it hurt credibility big time.

Regular Americans have known this rot existed for years. The Trump-Russia collusion hoax was shoved down our throats by these same agencies, with the Steele Dossier treated like gospel even though it was opposition research garbage. Then came the targeting of parents protesting school boards; Attorney General Merrick Garland’s 2021 memo weaponized the FBI against concerned moms and dads, labeling them potential domestic threats after a National School Boards Association letter equated peaceful rallies to terrorism. That memo got rescinded in 2025 under the new AG Pam Bondi, but the damage was done. Whistleblowers and congressional probes showed how counterterrorism tools got twisted for political ends.

Don’t forget the anti-Catholic bias. In 2023, the FBI’s Richmond office put out a memo linking “radical-traditionalist Catholic” ideology to violent extremism, citing left-wing sources like the Southern Poverty Law Center. It got pulled after backlash, but Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley later revealed it spread to over a thousand FBI employees, with more documents using similar smears. Former Director Christopher Wray claimed it was just one rogue product, but the evidence says otherwise. These weren’t isolated slips; they were patterns of elite sabotage against faith, family, and free speech.

Trump’s post highlights this because he fought these deep state games from day one. During his first term, he called out the weaponization, and now in 2026, with loyal leaders like Ratcliffe at CIA and others cleaning up, we’re seeing real accountability. The retractions prove what Regular Americans suspected: Obama-Biden era spy agencies prioritized politics over protecting the country. They inserted woke distractions into foreign intelligence, ignored tradecraft, and targeted everyday citizens who dared question school policies or hold traditional values.

This cleanup is a huge win. It restores trust in the intelligence community by admitting past failures and removing tainted products. No more using CIA resources to push abortion agendas or smear Catholics and parents. Instead, focus returns to actual threats like foreign adversaries. Ratcliffe’s statement nails it: these old reports don’t reflect the expertise of today’s analysts, and bias has no place. Regular Americans can breathe easier knowing the agency is finally enforcing standards.

Critics from the left, like Senate Intel Vice Chair Mark Warner, whine that this is politicization by Trump’s appointees. They claim it’s sidelining career experts. But the facts show the opposite: the retractions correct real deviations from objectivity. Former officials might defend the old reports as just reflecting past priorities, but that’s code for saying bias was baked in under Democrats. Trump never let that slide, and his influence now forces the fix.

Think about the bigger picture. For years, the media and Democrats painted Trump as the threat to institutions, but look who’s been caught politicizing the spies. The Russia hoax wasted millions and divided the nation. Targeting parents chilled free speech at school board meetings. Smearing Catholics as extremists alienated millions of faithful voters. All while real dangers like border security or China got downplayed. Trump’s sharing this article reminds everyone: he promised to drain the swamp, and he’s delivering.

In February 2026, with midterms on the horizon and America First policies rolling, this retraction boosts momentum. It shows strength in leadership, courage to admit and correct wrongs, even if they happened before. Regular Americans who supported Trump in 2016, 2020, and 2024 see vindication. The deep state isn’t invincible; truth wins when bold leaders act.

This moment matters because it protects our freedoms. No more intelligence reports twisted to advance leftist causes. The CIA refocuses on keeping America safe from real enemies, not imaginary ones invented to score political points. Trump spotlighting this proves he’s still fighting for us every day.

Regular Americans should celebrate this exposure. It shines light on the rot and starts the healing. Support leaders who demand integrity. Demand accountability from all agencies. With Trump leading the charge, we can make intelligence objective again and put America first where it belongs.

February 20, 2026 - JPMorgan Chase formally admits to terminating more than 50 Trump bank accounts after January 6 protest

JPMorgan Chase has formally admitted that it terminated more than 50 accounts connected to President Donald Trump and his business operations in the wake of the January 6th protest.

The admission came in court filings responding to a lawsuit filed by Trump and the Trump Organization.

The suit names JPMorgan and its CEO, Jamie Dimon, of debanking the president as part of an orchestrated political attack.

According to documents submitted to the court, the closures affected accounts tied to Trump hotels, real estate projects, and retail ventures in multiple states, as well as his longstanding private banking relationship.

That relationship had handled personal financial matters, including assets linked to his inheritance.

The bank’s internal correspondence, included in the filing, does not cite a specific violation or financial irregularity.

In a letter dated February 2021, JPMorgan informed Trump that he would need to “find a more suitable institution with which to conduct business.”

“Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter,” it concluded.

The lawsuit alleges the bank “needed to distance itself from President Trump and his conservative political views,” effectively placing him on a blacklist.

“In essence, [JP Morgan] debanked plaintiffs’ accounts because it believed that the political tide at the moment favored doing so,” the lawsuit states. (Read more: Gateway Pundit, 2/22/2026)  (Archive)

February 20, 2026 - Susan Rice states Democrats will weaponize the government to go after anyone who supports the President

February 19, 2026 - Trump, Rubio's State Department and DOGE are creating a portal for censored people to bypass their country's censorship laws

🚨 WOW! President Trump and Marco Rubio’s State Department is creating a portal for people in places like the European Union to BYPASS censorship laws — with the help of Elon Musk’s DOGE genius, “Big Balls” Edward Coristine

ABSOLUTELY BASED.

Freedom dot gov is set to un-filter “hate speech” and other BS censorship enacted by governments online

Edward Coristine: “FREEDOM IS COMING.” 🔥🇺🇸

The http://freedom.gov portal is a game-changer for digital sovereignty. Europe’s censorship regime—masked as “hate speech” enforcement—has long suppressed free expression under the guise of combating extremism. The State Department’s move to empower users with unfiltered access via VPNs and privacy tools isn’t just about bypassing bans; it’s a direct rebuke of EU overreach that conflates conservative dissent with terrorism.

Edward Coristine’s involvement, leveraging DOGE’s efficiency playbook, ensures this isn’t another bloated federal project but a surgical strike against bureaucratic censorship.

Critics whine about “undermining laws,” but sovereignty isn’t negotiable. If Brussels can’t handle truth, America will host it.

February 20, 2026 - New FBI internal emails reveal Biden White House coordinated with DOJ on Mar-a-Lago raid

FOX NEWS ALERT: Fox News has obtained emails from 2022 that appear to contradict the Biden administration’s claim it had nothing to do with the Department of Justice’s raid on President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home in Palm Beach, Florida reports Fox’s @BretBaier and @davidspunt

Fox’s David Spunt: “New emails obtained by Fox News from May 2022, 3 months before Mar-a-Lago was raided by the FBI, illustrated coordination between the White House Counsel’s office and the DOJ regarding an interview of Walt Nauta.”

AG Bondi says: “The more we learn about the DOJ’s weaponization under the prior administration, the worse the story gets… We will continue disclosing KEY EVIDENCE to our congressional partners to deliver the truth and bring those who committed crimes to justice.”

(…) In 2024, Judge Aileen Cannon unsealed records in Jack Smith’s classified docs case against Trump that reveal Biden’s White House and DOJ were coordinating with National Archives general counsel Gary Stern.

The day before Jack Smith indicted Trump in the classified documents case on June 8, 2023, NARA’s general counsel, Gary Stern, was at the Biden White House and met with Joe Biden’s White House lawyer, Richard Sauber.

NARA’s general counsel, Gary Stern, was working with Biden’s White House and DOJ as early as August 2021 (one year before the Mar-a-Lago raid).

It was recently reported that the FBI did not believe it had probable cause to raid Mar-a-Lago in 2022 but descended on Trump’s Florida estate amid pressure from Biden’s corrupt Justice Department. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 2/20/2026) (Archive)

February 21, 2026 - Epstein Files: The Rothschild name appears 12,000 times in the Epstein Files

In February 2016, Jeffrey Epstein wrote an email to Peter Thiel, co-founder of PayPal and Palantir, with a sentence that should have made the front page of every newspaper in the Western world: “As you probably know, I represent the Rothschilds.” The sentence is in the Epstein Files. It is an official document of the United States Department of Justice. And the mainstream press treated it as it would a footnote about the weather in Bermuda.

Guy de Rothschild and Marie-Hélène de Rothschild attend The Rothschild Surrealist Ball, 1972)

The name “Rothschild” appears nearly 12,000 times across the 3.8 million pages released in January 2026. Twelve thousand times. By comparison, “Clinton” appears at a significantly lower frequency. But in the media ecosystem that Chomsky helped build, repeating the name Rothschild in an investigative context is automatically reclassified as conspiratorial delusion. Convenient, when yours is the most cited name in the largest child sex trafficking scandal in modern history.

Les Wexner, the billionaire founder of Victoria’s Secret and Epstein’s largest known benefactor, testified under oath before the House Oversight Committee on February 18, 2026. Asked about the credentials that led him to entrust Epstein with full power of attorney over his finances, he answered plainly: “His personal work for the Rothschild family in France.” He added: “Specifically, I spoke to Élie de Rothschild. He represented their whole family.” Under oath. Before the United States Congress. Wexner’s attorney was caught whispering to his client on a hot mic: “I’ll fucking kill you if you answer another question with more than five words.” Desperation has recognizable symptoms.

The documents confirm what Wexner revealed. In October 2015, Southern Trust Company Inc., chaired by Epstein and based in the Virgin Islands, entered into a $25 million contract with Edmond de Rothschild Holding S.A. The subject: “risk analysis” and “application of certain algorithms.” Twenty-five million dollars for a convicted child sex offender to run algorithms for the wealthiest family in Europe. If this were a TV script, no studio would buy it for lack of plausibility.

Ariane de Rothschild, CEO of the Edmond de Rothschild Group since 2023, exchanged emails with Epstein dozens of times per month. The Wall Street Journal confirmed in 2023 that she met with him in person more than a dozen times after his conviction. The bank’s initial defense was to deny any contact. Later, they admitted the meetings took place “as part of her normal duties.” Normal duties apparently include regular meetings with convicted pedophiles.

(…) The pattern that emerges from the documents is structurally clear. Epstein operated as the Rothschild family’s financial representative. He used that position to build a network of relationships with billionaires, politicians, and academics. That network was the operational substrate of the largest documented child sex trafficking scheme in history. And when the survivors began to speak, the silencing machine operated with banking precision. (Read more: The Elegant Ruin, 2/21/2026)  (Archive)

February 21, 2026 - The FBI Mission and the “Library on Congress”

In roughly the past fifty years, the term “continuity of government” has been used with increased frequency describing how the United States of America, a constitutional republican system of government, contains internal mechanisms to protect the executive branch in the event of crisis, attack or disruption of leadership by adversaries.

The term ‘continuity of government‘ became much more common in the aftermath of 9-11-01 and the thunder shock of an al-Qaeda inspired terrorist attack in New York and Washington DC.

Within the very brief discussion period that led up to the 10-26-01 Patriot Act [pdf here], literally a structural reform of the entire domestic terrorist apparatus that created the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Transportation Safety Administration (TSA), a bill only debated for a few weeks, the baseline was the enhanced ‘continuity of government‘ in the event of an emergency.

As we have exhaustively outlined on these pages, the outcome of the Patriot Act was to create a system where every American was now viewed by our federal government through the prism of the citizen being a potential terrorist threat.

The federal government aligned all of our institutions and national security systems accordingly.

DHS was created to monitor American behavior, the TSA was created to scan American travelers, and the FBI was enhanced with resources to conduct surveillance despite our Fourth Amendment protections within our Constitution.  Instead of the U.S. Govt protecting U.S. citizens from foreign threats, the Patriot Act changed the mission of government to protect itself from potential citizen threats.

In essence, We the People became the suspects, and all of the constitutional viewpoints within the FBI and Dept of Justice were modified to create monitoring systems.

The legislative branch was considered part of a this newly protected elite class of Americans, and the judicial branch deferred all scrutiny to the executive as long as they claimed, ‘national security.’  The secret FISA court system would grant the agents surveillance power over U.S. citizens.

As the foundation of this new surveillance state was just being finalized, Barack Obama, Joe Biden and Eric Holder then entered government via the 2008 election and weaponized this system to target their domestic political opposition.

However, there is also a second element to this ‘continuity of government’ that flows with the first premise.

The continuity of a very specific outlook by government.

The continuity of a very specific construct of government.

The continuity of a view within government of how government should operate. This is part of the continuity of government not discussed.

You can argue it was the viewpoint of a very specific type of government “continuity” that led to the opposition against Donald Trump by Democrats and Republicans.

Trump would be a disruptive influence if introduced into a continuation mission that did not like change.  This ‘continuity’ mindset then established the justification for every institution and element of the bureaucracy, including almost all layers of the people who run them, to oppose Donald Trump.

By the time the 2016 election arrived, We the People had already been defined by the Patriot Act outcome as a threat to government.  If we the people did not select the right kind of candidate who would be approved by the continuity system, then our selection would be rejected by all of the operators of that administrative system.   That’s what happened.

Every move by the U.S. federal government, from 2016 to now, has been contrast against the backdrop of a new awakening and visible understanding.

We the People are the threat, and those who control the DC power centers that determine the continuity of government, will not accept any modification or diminishment of their mission.  This is how they justify their conduct in very real terms, including through application of law.  This is also why the people who operate these systems are very visible with their conduct and do not have any reservations about showing their omnipotent mindset.

From their perspective, they are doing what they do, running government how they run government, maintaining the continuity the system was designed to protect, and we are what they consider futile and irrelevant voices.

Both the Republican and Democrat leadership hold this same view.  This “continuity of government” is the core of their UniParty alignment.

Here is where this understanding gets really interesting.

In order to maintain this system, there has to be an internal monitoring system, a surveillance system to protect itself against any adversary.  A domestic surveillance state has to exist as an outcome of the logical sequence.

Within this total surveillance state, the FBI is the federal agency – a national police force with a mission to run monitoring operations.

Everyone is monitored, and in case anyone would raise objection to being monitored, the corporate media provide protection against criticism by saying the agencies doing the monitoring need to be independent.

As we plunge deeper and deeper into this weaponized surveillance state, if you engage in any conduct to avoid monitoring, you run the risk of being caught in the DHS surveillance sweep.  You run the risk of becoming a DHS subject of interest, just like candidate Donald Trump – only smaller.  If you choose to fight against accepting the weaponized surveillance state, you will be considered a DHS subject of interest – just like the J6 detainees.

When the FBI was fighting against the release of the FD-1023 report, outlining the Confidential Human Source (CHS) that gave evidence to the FBI against Joe Biden, people missed something.

The DOJ/FBI reluctance to admit the FD-1023 report existed was not just about Joe Biden, it was also about a surveillance process this reporting would reveal.

The confidential human source (CHS) was a person giving information to the FBI for their files.  This is the library on congress.  There are hundreds of thousands of these FD-1023 forms created, as CHS’s undercover agent employees (UAE’s) and a myriad of resources, are deployed in this surveillance system.

It’s the breadth of this surveillance system that leads to the FBI saying, “The safeguards the FBI placed on the production of this information are necessary to protect the safety of confidential sources and the integrity of sensitive investigations. Today’s release of the 1023 [form] – at a minimum – unnecessarily risks the safety of a confidential source.”

As noted by the Federalist Margot Cleveland, “During Wednesday’s hours-long hearing, IRS whistleblowers Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler both told lawmakers they had never seen the FD-1023. Significantly, Ziegler then stated: “There’s things that are contained on that document that could further corroborate other information that we might be having an issue corroborating because it could be regarding a foreign official. So, if we have information regarding that in a document or a witness, we can further corroborate later evidence.”

The reason the IRS agents were not aware of the CHS reports to the FBI, is because keeping the FD-1023 report hidden did not have as much to do with protecting Biden as it does with protecting this surveillance apparatus.

Who are all of these CHS’s and UAEs like Igor Danchenko, Patrick Byrne, Azra Turk, Carter Page, Joseph Mifsud, Ray Epps, 1% Watchdog, etc. etc. etc?  There is a massive surveillance apparatus underway monitoring everyone, including an assembly of files against sitting members of congress and political leadership.

Keep in mind, the FD-1023 reports are not blackmail, they are reports of conduct and action.

Blackmail and/or leverage is an outcome of knowing information.  The massive assembly of FD-1023 reports are the source information.

This was a big part of the reason why FBI Director Christopher Wray initially denied there was an FD-1023 report.

In the bigger of the big pictures, this Joe/Hunter Biden story was the tip of an iceberg showing how the FBI is a domestic surveillance operation assembling files on everyone; that includes members of Congress and key political leadership that could advance to power.  Why is all of this surveillance taking place?…

….Because it is a very specific type of Continuity of Government that must be maintained.

Don’t look at the Potemkin village we call Washington DC.

Look for the people behind the construct.

Look for the people who are using these files.

February 24, 2026 - Highlights of Trump's State Of The Union address

Celebrities, lawmakers and former government officials gathered for a “State of the Swamp” event ahead of President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address, staging a high-profile protest as counter programming to the annual speech.

President Trump honors Coast Guard Petty Officer Scott Ruskan with the Legion of Merit for rescuing 165 people, largely children, during the deadly flash floods that struck Camp Mystic on July 4, 2025.

“If you agree with this statement, stand up to show your support: The first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens,” Trump said.

Republicans stood up and cheered while many Democrats remained seated.

President Trump lambasted the Democrats for refusing to stand for protecting American citizens.

“[Democrats] are blocking the removal of [illegal alien drug lords and rapists] out of our country and you should be ashamed of yourselves!” Trump said.

“You have killed Americans!” Omar shouted.

“You should be ashamed!” Omar added.

Fellow squad member Rashida Tlaib also joined Ilhan Omar and shouted at President Trump.

Democrat Response:

February 24, 2026 - The Biden DOJ funneled millions in federal grants to Fani Willis as she coordinated with the WH and J6 Committee to prosecute Trump

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis coordinated extensively with the Biden Justice Department and White House as well as Democrats on the House Jan. 6 investigative committee as she built a failed criminal case against President Donald Trump and his allies related to their challenge to Georgia’s 2020 election results, according to a trove of internal communications obtained by Just the News.

The memos show that President Joe Biden’s top White House lawyer personally opened the door for Willis’ prosecutors to interview Trump administration officials by waiving claims of executive privilege, that federal prosecutors waived certain rights to allow the interviews to proceed before a state grand jury and that Willis’s team spoke glowingly of the congressional efforts to expose Trump’s involvement in the disputed election.

“Our initial review of the report confirms you all have accomplished amazing things in the past year,” F. Donald Wakeford, a top deputy to Willis, wrote in a December 2022 email to Tim Heaphy, chief investigative counsel for the Democrat-run Select Committee to Investigate the Jan. 6 Attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Just the News, alongside the nonprofit public interest law firm America First Legal (AFL), sued Willis for the records, under Georgia’s Open Records Law. Willis, a longtime Trump nemesis, sought to hide many of the records with claims of legal privilege during a prolonged legal fight.

In a reaction to the lawsuit, Willis’ office this week dropped all privilege claims and released all the documents without any redactions, providing to Just the News — and the public — more information than it did to congressional Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee.

“These documents reveal that the Biden Administration and the January 6 Committee were much more involved in District Attorney Fani Willis’s prosecution of President Trump than was previously believed. AFL was happy to represent Just the News to get Americans this new information,” said Will Scolinos, an attorney at America First Legal.

Georgia court: “Willis’ misconduct created an “odor of mendacity”

The Georgia Court of Appeals issued a decision holding Willis accountable for prosecutorial misconduct and conflict of interest during her hunt to get Trump.

“The court highlighted that Willis’ misconduct created an ‘odor of mendacity’ and an appearance of impropriety that could only be cured by the disqualification of her and her entire office,” Trump attorney Steve Sadow said in a statement, according to The Georgia Reporter.

“As the court rightfully noted, only the remedy of disqualification will suffice to restore public confidence. This decision puts an end to a politically motivated persecution of the next President of the United States.”

February 25, 2026 - Trump announces a 'war on fraud' and appoints JD Vance to oversee it

President Donald Trump announces the “war on fraud” during his State of the Union address on February 25, 2026, and appoints Vice President JD Vance to lead/oversee the initiative.

He states: “So tonight, although [it] started four months ago, I am officially announcing the war on fraud to be led by our great Vice President JD Vance. He’ll get it done.”

The effort focuses on rooting out waste, fraud, and abuse in federal programs (especially Medicaid and entitlements), with early actions including freezing over $250 million in Medicaid funds to Minnesota.

Vice President JD Vance and administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Mehmet Oz discussed a ‘War on Fraud’ that President Trump announced in his State of the Union. The main topic was health care related fraud in Minnesota, and the Trump administration is reportedly cutting some funding to the state over it.

February 25, 2026 - Biden's FBI subpoenaed Kash Patel and Susie Wiles phone records while they were private citizens; Patel fires those involved

The FBI, under President Joe Biden, subpoenaed the phone records of Susie Wiles, President Donald Trump’s chief of staff, and FBI Director Kash Patel when they were private citizens.

The subpoenas came out when Smith investigated Trump for allegedly trying to overturn the 2020 election and hiding classified information at Mar-a-Lago.

The most significant part of the story, which Reuters buried, is that two FBI officials said that the agency wiretapped and recorded a call between Wiles and her attorney in 2023.

The attorney supposedly consented to the FBI recording the call.

According to Marc Caputo of Axios, the lawyer denies the claim, saying he never gave permission for anyone to record the phone call.

“If I ever pulled a stunt like that I wouldn’t – and shouldn’t – have a license to practice law,” the lawyer told Caputo. “I’m as shocked as Susie.”

Wiles reportedly told people close to her that the news left her “in shock.”

It seems Wiles believes the attorney.

Caputo correctly does not name the lawyer since “he and his former client believe he is being [un]fairly accused.”

The news is serious because it’s not the same as the tracking Smith and his cronies performed on eight Republican senators and 400 Republicans.

The tracking, known as toll analysis, only shows the who, when, and where of the communication. It does not show content.

February 26, 2026 - Kristi Noem: Deep State officials bugged my phone, computer

Deep State activists within the Department of Homeland Security secretly bugged the phones and computers used by top political appointees, agency chief Kristi Noem told the PBD Podcast.

Elon Musk’s deputies “helped me identify [the Deep State allies who] downloaded software on my phone and my laptop to spy on me, to record our meetings,” Noem said on February 26, adding:

They had done that to several of the politicals, and so we ended up bringing in [outside tech] people … [and we] didn’t have those technology experts here in the department looking at all of our laptops and our phones and recognizing that kind of software.

“I always believed when people talked about the deep state before that it existed: I never would have dreamed that it was as bad as it is,” she said. “I’m still every day trying to dig out people who don’t love America, not just [those] who work at this department, but also work throughout the federal government.”

The Deep State actors also had their own spy base within the DHS building, she said:

I just found the other day a whole room on this [DHS headquarters] campus that was a secret SCIF secure facility [Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility] that had files nobody knew existed. So we just happened to have an employee walk by a door and wonder what it was. Started asking questions. We went there. There was individuals working there that had secret files that nobody knew about on some of these most controversial topics, like that. And now I’ve got that turned over to attorneys, and we’re getting to the bottom of what exactly happened there.

Noem also said she is trying to reconstruct the movement of scientists through U.S. government and Chinese laboratories before the coronavirus crash:

I also have national labs under my jurisdiction, they [have] scientists that participated with that [China-based] Wuhan lab. [We’re studying] how they were traveling back and forth between each other, and working on those experiments.

“It’s been eye-opening,” she said.

February 26, 2026 - Hillary Clinton’s team spent seven hours engineering the perfect camera angle and lighting before her Epstein deposition

(Credit: America First Report)

Before Hillary Clinton answered a single question under oath about her connections to Jeffrey Epstein, her team had already spent considerable energy on a different priority: making sure she looked good on camera. According to a source familiar with the setup, the pre-deposition preparations at the Chappaqua Performing Arts Center on February 26 involved a level of image management more fitting for a television production than a sworn congressional proceeding.

The details, first reported by the New York Post, paint a telling picture. Clinton’s team requested what the source described as “beauty lighting” from the venue. They repeatedly instructed that the camera be positioned to her left, which they considered her more flattering angle. When the existing lighting still cast unflattering shadows, white tablecloths were brought in and arranged to reflect the overhead stage lights and soften the effect on her face.

The original black curtains were deemed unacceptable — the source says the team worried they made the setting look like a “hostage situation.” A custom blue-paneled backdrop was ordered from a local vendor and produced in roughly seven hours to replace them. Many of these same visual adjustments remained in place the following day for former President Bill Clinton’s deposition.

Whatever one makes of the underlying investigation, the staging operation raises an obvious question: why does a witness summoned to give sworn testimony in a closed-door congressional deposition need a lighting crew? (Read more: America First Report, 3/3/2026)  (Archive)

February 27, 2026 - A non-profit, the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA), verifies our voter applicant ID’s nationwide

U.S. States use 2 nearly identical systems to check applicant identities. One is used to check Driver’s License applicants, the other is used to check Voter Registration applicants. One is flawed, the other flawless. Guess which is used for our elections.

The Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA) is a generic term for a state’s DMV, MVD, and so on. MVA’s use a service called SSOLV (Social Security Online Verification) to verify driver license applicants. When a person needs a license or ID card, they go to an MVA office. Staff create an “ID verification request” by entering all 9 digits of the SS#, name, and DOB into their computer. That data travels through the middleman network AAMVAnet, to the Social Security Administration, and comes right back with a response.

To verify the identities of Voter Registration applicants, states use a nearly identical program called HAVV (Help America Vote Verification). These ID verifications are sent by the same MVA department, also through AAMVAnet, to the same SSA servers. But this system seems handicapped. Only the last 4 digits of the SS# can be used. And it gets worse. (Funfact: Texas pays $480 per year for its AAMVAnet service).

GP has written about the high percentage (28%, 58%) of non-match ID verifications through the HAVV system.

Both SSOLV and HAVV are services provided by the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA). States sign agreements for programs and services provided by AAMVA. In fact, SSOLV and HAVV are so similar that they are often priced as one service and one line item on purchase orders. Note: If a voter applicant doesn’t have a driver’s license, HAVV must be used to check the identity. Some states use HAVV for more than this, including their entire database.

Voter applications come from many sources – online, paper, and applying for gov benefits. Because of this, HAVV verifications are processed differently from SSOLV. Typically, as voter applications come into a Country Recorders’ office, a list is created of those needing ID verification (a batch). These County lists are combined each day by the Secretary of State. This is then given to their MVA, who submits this “batch” at night to the Social Security Administration (SSA). The results are disseminated back to the original locations.

In 2010, the Office of Inspector General (OIG) for the SSA released a report about HAVV. Oddly, that 8-person team looked at only one issue and talked with only 10 states. They found that many HAVV requests are resubmissions of the same person, over and over. In some states, 30-70% of all requests were resubmissions. For instance, a 37-year-old Illinois man was verified 342 times on the same day.

In other examples, Ohio submitted the same voter for verification 1,778 times over an 11-day period in 2008. In 2009, they submitted the same person for verification another 13,824 times. That 77-year-old man had been dead for 4 years. The OIG report shows the same person can be processed 10, 30, even 50 times or more each year. Read on to learn why we are mentioning 18-year-old data.

Of the 10 states questioned by the OIG, 6 didn’t know why resubmissions were happening, and didn’t seem to care. Four states indicated that voter verifications were resubmitted automatically when that voter’s info was changed or updated. In 2008, about 32% of all verification transactions processed through HAVV were resubmissions. In 2009, it was about 20%.

After the report, the Social Security Administration stated it wasn’t necessary to create a process that detects or fixes why a person is submitted repeatedly. From what we can tell, not a single improvement has been made to HAVV since that 2010 report. After many unanswered FOIAs, staff at a Secretary of State office in the Midwest said, “We too are curious about HAVV data. It’s run by the DMV and somewhat of a black box to us.” (Read much more: The Gateway Pundit, 2/27/2026)  (Archive)

February 27, 2026 - Bill Clinton pleads ignorance of Epstein crimes during his deposition

Former President Bill Clinton claimed he had “no idea” about the crimes of deceased convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, stating that he “saw nothing” that gave him pause.

In a post on X, the former president shared images of his opening statement to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. In his testimony, Clinton pointed out that “as someone who grew up in a home with domestic abuse,” he would not have flown on Epstein’s plane if he “had any inkling of what he was doing.”

“I had no idea of the crimes Epstein was committing,” Clinton said in his testimony. “No matter how many photos you show me, I have two things that at the end of the day matter more than your interpretation of those 2o-year-old photos. I know what I saw, and more importantly, what I didn’t see. I know what I did, and more importantly, what I didn’t do.”

Clinton’s testimony continued:

As someone who grew up in a home with domestic abuse, not only would I not have flown on his plane if I had any inkling of what he was doing — I would have turned him in myself and led the call for justice for his crimes, not sweetheart deals.

The former president also stated that Epstein hid his crimes “from everyone so well for so long,” adding that by the time his crimes finally “came to light with his 2008 guilty plea,” he had “long stopped associating with him.”

Clinton’s statement comes a day after former first lady and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told the House Oversight Committee that she “had no idea about” Epstein’s criminal activities. (Read more: Breitbart News, 2/27/2026)  (Archive)

Former President Bill Clinton released a video statement on his Epstein deposition.

On Friday Bill Clinton testified before the House Oversight Committee on his connections to Jeffrey Epstein from an office in Chappaqua, New York.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer told reporters that Bill Clinton testified that to his knowledge President Trump was not involved with Epstein.

“Trump has never said anything to me to make me think he was involved with Epstein,” Comer said.

Fox News also reported that Bill Clinton’s lawyers stepped in several times to stop him from talking too much during the deposition.

February 26, 2026 - How the Biden regime got illegals on commercial flights; legal paperwork of convicted sex offenders was accepted as ID

Thanks to a lawsuit against TSA, disturbing new details are emerging about how illegals without traditional ID were allowed to board commercial flights during the Biden era. And buried inside the paperwork is the detail that has many Americans downright furious.

According to the lawsuit and supporting documents, illegals who were flagged as sex offenders were able to travel by presenting official paperwork related to their sex offender status.

(…) Let’s take a closer look at what the lawsuit uncovered:

Breanna Morello:

🚨FLASHBACK🚨

Ever wondered how TSA was allowing illegal aliens to board commercial flights without IDs under the Biden regime?

Well I sued TSA to find out and learned that Biden’s DHS allowed CONVICTED sex offenders on to flights by showing their sex offender paperwork.

Predators were allowed into the country if they promised to take sexual deviancy counseling and register as a sex offender.

After suing TSA, I won and now the agency is covering my legal fees.

Currently, TSA says they can’t pay my lawyer right now due to the shut down.

The documents obtained through the case help explain what critics are reacting to.

One form, titled Order of Release on Recognizance Addendum, outlines conditions placed on certain noncitizens after processing. Among the listed requirements are provisions related to substance abuse programs, sexual deviancy counseling, and sex offender registration where applicable.

A second document, the Order of Supervision checklist, includes compliance steps for individuals classified under categories such as sex offenders and substance abusers, including notification requirements and proof of counseling.

To critics, the concern is not that these conditions exist. It is that individuals requiring this level of supervision were still able to move through commercial air travel channels at all.

Here are the documents now circulating.

(…) Back in March 2024, the Daily Mail reported that the Biden administration acknowledged transporting migrants on flights into the United States as part of broader immigration processing efforts.

The report noted that hundreds of thousands of migrants were flown to dozens of U.S. airports under programs tied in part to the CBP One app expansion.

Joe Biden’s administration has admitted transporting migrants on secret flights into the U.S. and lawyers for its immigration agencies claim revealing the locations could create national security ‘vulnerabilities’.

Customs and Border Protection has refused to disclose crucial information about a program last year arranging flights for thousands of undocumented immigrants from foreign airports directly to U.S. cities.

It means that while record numbers of migrants were flowing over the southern border last year, the Biden White House was also directly transporting them into the country. Use of a cell phone app has allowed for the near undetected arrival by air of 320,000 aliens with no legal rights to enter the United States. It comes after a controversy over a 2022 transportation program in which the administration used taxpayers money to move migrants throughout the country on overnight flights.

Included in details of a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit first reported by Todd Bensman, the Center for Immigration Studies found Biden’s CBP approved the latest secretive flights that transported hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants from foreign countries into at least 43 different American airports from January through December 2023.

The program was part of Biden’s expansion of the CBP One app, which kicked off at the start of last year.

Migrants were able, under Biden’s expansion, to apply for asylum using the app from their home countries. But the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) notes that the transportation of these migrants directly to the U.S. is one of the lesser known uses of the app.

The Biden regime had the audacity to say these programs were lawful processing mechanisms designed to manage migration flows more efficiently.

So, bringing in known sex offenders and flying them around the country is standard operating procedure?

Now that these older posts are making the rounds again, people are zeroing in on the massive price tag for the flights and where many of these arrivals were actually sent.

February 28, 2026 - Highlights of Trump's liberation of Iran

How many times do we have to go through this before people recognize that Trump actually knows what he is doing?

Trump is eliminating the Deep State’s militaristic capabilities worldwide.

Iran, and their terror proxies in the Middle East, are being purged. The cartels, and their terrorist organizations in the Western Hemisphere, are being purged.

Trump has been telling us for years that he is going to “obliterate” the Deep State, and that’s what he is doing. Trump has to eliminate the Deep State’s foot soldiers. The cartels and Islamic terror networks, are assets of the Deep State, that threaten the safety of everyone, and Trump knows they must be destroyed.

Iran was also the vehicle for Obama to offshore nuclear weapons directly into the hands of the ruling families. The regime must be removed and Iran returned to her People.

You want to live in a word free of the Deep State? That’s exactly what Trump is doing. It’s not always going to be sunshine and rainbows, but it must be done.

There will be no broader escalation. There will be no prolonged conflict. This will be a surgical military operation, just like everything else Trump does.

Trust Trump. He has earned it.

So many talking heads and clickbait influencers continue to get all their analysis wrong, because they don’t understand Trump or his mission.

They assume Trump is like other Presidents of the past. This is a mistake.

Trump is legitimately on a mission to destroy the Deep State, and defeat is not an option. Once you begin looking through this lens, things start making sense, and pieces of the puzzle begin to fall into place.

So many people are trying to solve an extremely complex equation, with incorrect variables. Until you recognize that Trump is the real deal and is actually doing what he said he would do, your analysis will continue to be wrong.

Update:

Unfortunately, CENTCOM reported that we suffered 3 deaths to US service members, NBC News reported the deaths happened in Kuwait, but still waiting to hear more details.

Trump confirms we are eradicating the Iranian Navy and Israel confirms we have established air superiority over Iran’s airspace.

Trump also confirmed that Iran’s remaining leadership want to negotiate, but expect the strikes on IRGC assets and capabilities to continue regardless. Trump is going to completely wipe out Iran’s offensive and defensive capabilities for the foreseeable future.

Saudi Arabia also confirmed they are willing to respond to Iran’s attacks on Riyadh.

The operation is not over, and our armed forces are still in harm’s way, but the IRGC have no path to victory, they have confirmed they are the terrorist state preventing peace in the Middle East, and the world has turned on them.

China and Russia stood down.

I believe Xi and Putin had to be somewhat in the loop on the situation via back channels. Trump must have secured complete assurances that there would be no interference or escalation, prior to any action.

Trump just had a “very positive” phone call with Xi on February 4th, in which they did discuss global military conflicts, including Iran, as well as trade/economic cooperation, and Trump confirmed he will be visiting China from March 31-April 2.

I think a backdoor agreement has already been made, and both Xi and Putin agreed Khamenei and the radical Islamic regime must go. There’s no other way this could have been pulled off. It would have been too substantial a risk to both national and global security for Trump to do this blindly.

Trump has the board secure.

Trump made a deal with nearly all the nations of the Middle East and the Muslim world, to bring peace to the region.

Peace in the region could never be accomplished so long as the Iranian regime and their terror proxies exist, so Trump is eliminating the problem, and paving the way for a stable and peaceful Middle East.

Now take it 40,000 feet. The CIA has been cleansed, strings have been cut, and Deep State destabilization of the Middle East is coming to a close. Trump is eliminating Deep State assets in the region, meaning Khamenei’s radical Islamic regime and their terror proxies like Hezbollah, Houthis, Hamas, etc.

Trump is undoing decades of CIA meddling and purging Deep State assets worldwide. Iran and their terror proxies in the Middle East, and the drug cartels in the Western Hemisphere.

Without these rogue assets and Deep State tentacles intentionally destabilizing these regions, the world will be free to move forward into a new era of peace.

It’s actually happening.
