May 22, 2025 - Ed Martin identifies ‘gatekeepers’ involved in Biden autopen scandal, says whistleblower has come forward

DOJ Pardon Attorney Ed Martin discussed Biden’s growing autopen scandal this week with journalist Mark Halperin on the “2WAY Tonight” podcast.

Last Tuesday Ed Martin said that the Justice Department is reviewing Joe Biden’s last-minute pardons since it has become increasingly clear he was incapacitated during his presidency.

Ed Martin this Tuesday revealed he wrote to the Biden family and others and a senior Democrat whistleblower came forward with shocking allegations.

A couple of people “lawyered up” Ed Martin said.

“The Biden pardons are unprecedented,” he added.

“I had a whistleblower in my office 10 day ago, senior, senior Democrat saying, ‘Look, it was these three people that controlled access, and they were making money off of it,’” Ed Martin told Mark Halperin. “I don’t know if I believe it yet, but the point is I think we have to get to the bottom of it for the American people and to protect the process. And that’s what we’re doing.”

Although Ed Martin couldn’t name names, he said the senior Democrat whistleblower worked as a high level advisor in Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign.

The three gatekeepers who were allegedly selling access to the autopen were Biden’s Chief of Staff Ron Klain, Mao lover and senior White House Advisor Anita Dunn and Biden attorney Bob Bauer.

Ed Martin said former Biden counsel Steve Ricchetti and Jill Biden were also lead ‘characters’ in the Biden White House. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 5/22/2025)  (Archive)

May 22, 2025 - DHS Kristi Noem holds Harvard accountable for fostering violence, antisemitism, and coordinating with the Chinese Communist Party

This administration is holding Harvard accountable for fostering violence, antisemitism, and coordinating with the Chinese Communist Party on its campus.

It is a privilege, not a right, for universities to enroll foreign students and benefit from their higher tuition payments to help pad their multibillion-dollar endowments.

Harvard had plenty of opportunity to do the right thing. It refused.

They have lost their Student and Exchange Visitor Program certification as a result of their failure to adhere to the law.

Let this serve as a warning to all universities and academic institutions across the country.




Former State Department official Mike Benz accused Harvard University on Thursday of acting as a central hub for anti-Trump activity, saying the school’s network of academic departments and think tanks has been “weaponized” against President Donald Trump.

The Department of Homeland Security revoked Harvard’s ability to host foreign students, citing a “toxic campus climate” and violations related to antisemitism and foreign funding disclosures. During an appearance on “The War Room,” Benz discussed Harvard’s widespread backchanneling with powerful institutions like the State Department, the Defense Department, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and various multinational corporations and NGOs.

“Virtually every center, institute and department at Harvard is weaponized against the Trump administration at every level. Through their backchanneling with intelligence, through the backchanneling with the State Department, through their backchanneling with the defense sector, through their backchanneling with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, multinational corporations, through their backchanneling with the NGOs,” Benz said.

Benz specifically named the Harvard Belfer Center and called it a “Heart of Darkness” hub within the university. He also pointed to Erica Chenoweth and Maria Stephan, both affiliated with the Belfer Center, as ideological architects of these strategies. (Read more: The Daily Caller, 5/22/2025)  (Archive)

 

May 23, 2025 - Hillary calls on Americans to bash Trump at Memorial Day gatherings

Rather than honoring the military men and women who gave their lives defending their fellow Americans’ right to live in freedom, two-time failed Democratic Party presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is calling on her supporters to bash President Donald Trump and his One Big Beautiful Bill that passed the House this week when they get together with friends and neighbors at Memorial Day gatherings this weekend:

I’m giving you a mission for this Memorial Day holiday weekend.

I want you to talk to two people—friends, neighbors, cookout attendees—about why Trump’s proposed budget would be a disaster for American kids.

We owe the next generation every chance, and this isn’t it.

How the Trump budget bill would impact kids. (It would be a disaster.)

* Drastically cut health care. 15 million Americans, including millions of children, could lose access through Medicaid cuts and ACA marketplace changes.
* Increase food insecurity. Nearly 11 million people—including 4 million kids—could lose SNAP food assistance.
* Make families poorer. The bill would kick 4.5 million American kids off the child tax credit.
* Leave AI dangers unchecked. The bill would freeze state-level AI regulation for 10 years, stripping states of the ability to protect kids from deep fakes, exploitation, and more.

May 23, 2025 - DOGE cancels $163 million in NEH grants going toward research on LGBTQ+ cartoonists and gay travel guides

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has much work underway, announcing the cancellation of several Biden-era grants that were going toward bizarre and wasteful causes, such as research on LGBTQ+ cartoonists and gay travel guides.

“During the previous administration, the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) awarded the following grants to spend taxpayer dollars, all of which have been cancelled,” DOGE wrote on social media, noting that these cancellations have resulted in an overall savings of $163 million.

A $350,000 NEH grant, for instance, was for “interactive gay travel guides to better understand historical LGBTQ+ spaces.” Another grant to the tune of $247,000 was set to “digitize stories of transgender adults in the Pacific Northwest.”

A $60,000 grant was allotted to “research how LGBTQ+ cartoonists innovated comics in the 1980s & 1990s,” and $75,000 was to “examine the relationship between internet live streaming and LGBTQ+ communities.”

Not all grants were LGBTQ centered, however. One grant, coming in at $150,000, was for “excavation of Egypt’s first industrial-scale brewery.” And another $350,000 grant was for creating “a Spanish version of Homosauras.org.”

“NEH grants will be merit-based and awarded to non-DEI, pro-America causes,” DOGE affirmed.

May 23, 2025 - The US government cuts funds to its first major CIA-created media network, Radio Free Europe

May 23, 2025 - Rubio eliminates more than 100 people from National Security Council

The National Security Council is a ¹cushy job inside the White House filled with bureaucratic analysts and people who are in place in an attempt to steer policy.  Many of those detailed to the NSC represent the interests of the Silo agency from which they originate.

The National Security Council contains approximately 350 full-time employees.  The National Security Advisor, now Marco Rubio, is in charge of the NSC.  Secretary Marco Rubio just fired more than 100 of them.  A few quotes from Axios are beautiful, and telling:

(…) “The NSC is the ultimate Deep State. It’s Marco vs. the Deep State. We’re gutting the Deep State,” the official said of the move, which will cut the NSC staff to about half of its current 350 members. “The right-sizing of the NSC is in line with its original purpose and the president’s vision,” Rubio told Axios in a statement. “The NSC will now be better positioned to collaborate with agencies.” [link]

WASHINGTON DC – The Trump administration has put more than 100 officials at the National Security Council at the White House on administrative leave on Friday as part of a restructuring under interim national security adviser and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, according to two US officials and another source familiar with the matter.

(…) An email from NSC chief of staff Brian McCormack went out around 4:20 p.m. informing those being dismissed they’d have 30 minutes to clean out their desks, according to an administration official. If they weren’t on campus, the email read, they could email an address and arrange a time to retrieve their stuff later and turn in devices.

The email subject line read: “Your return to home agency,” indicating that most of those affected were detailed to the NSC from other departments and agencies.

On Thursday, Rubio convened a meeting with principals, which raised speculation that it was about the re-organization, the official said. And on Friday at 3:45 p.m., shortly before the email went out, senior directors were summoned to a meeting with Rubio.

[…] Those put on leave include career officials, as well as political hires made during the Trump administration.

In recent weeks staffers were being re-interviewed by the Office of the Presidential Personnel as the reshaping of the office was taking place, sources said. One of the questions asked was what officials thought was the appropriate size of the NSC, one source said.

Staffed by foreign policy experts from across the US government, the NSC typically serves as a critical body for coordinating the president’s foreign policy agenda.

But under President Donald Trump, the NSC’s role has been diminished, with the overhaul expected to further reduce its importance in the White House. (read more)

Remember the Susan Rice Benghazi “talking points” about a YouTube video?  Remember Tommy “Dude” Vietor?  Remember Alexander Vindman?  Yeah, all from the National Security Council.

To give you an expanded perspective on how the NSC operates, compared to what the institutional DC interests tell us about it, it’s worth remembering that Tom Donilon’s daughter was appointed to the NSC after college.  lol

2022: Tom Donilon’s daughter, Sarah Donilon, who graduated college in 2019, now works on the White House National Security Council {link}

As if on cue….

“Marco Rubio: 25% then / 70% now.  Remarkably his confrontation with the Senate, with USAID, with VISAs, and calling Ukraine a “USA proxy war” were big jumps in the effectiveness and competency versus what was expected.  Still watching for direct IC confrontation with his move to NatSec Advisor, but I totally understand why President Trump is supporting him with more authority.”

May 23, 2025 - New docs reveal Biden Administration labeled opponents of Covid mandates as “domestic violent extremists”

Biden Administration Labeled Opponents Of Covid Mandates As “Domestic Violent Extremists,” Newly Released Documents Show

The designation infringed on the First Amendment and opened the door to investigating Americans for vaccine mandate skepticism.

The Biden Administration labeled Americans who opposed the COVID-19 vaccination and mask mandates as “Domestic Violent Extremists,” or DVEs, according to newly declassified intelligence records obtained by Public @shellenberger @galexybrane and Catherine Herridge Reports. The designation created an “articulable purpose” for FBI or other government agents to open an “assessment” of individuals, which is often the first step toward a formal investigation, said a former FBI agent.

The report, which the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, has declassified, claims that “anti government or anti authority violent extremists,” specifically militias, “characterize COVID-19 vaccination and mask mandates as evidence of government overreach.” A sweeping range of COVID narratives, the report states, “have resonated” with DVEs “motivated by QAnon.”

The FBI, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC) coauthored the December 13, 2021 intelligence product whose title reads, “DVEs and Foreign Analogues May React Violently to COVID-19 Mitigation Mandates.”

The report cites criticism of mandates as “prominent narratives” related to violent extremism. These narratives “include the belief that COVID-19 vaccines are unsafe, especially for children, are part of a government or global conspiracy to deprive individuals of their civil liberties and livelihoods, or are designed to start a new social or political order.

“It’s a way they could go to social media companies and say, ‘You don’t want to propagate domestic terrorism so you should take down this content,’” said former FBI agent Steve Friend.

Premium content and analysis on the declassified records for subscribers @C__Herridge

A separate February 2022 report called “Special Analysis: Joint Analytic Cell” investigates the “Sociopolitical Factors Amplifying Persistent Domestic Violent Extremist Threat.”

The newly declassified report seems to draw a straight line between opposition to vaccine mandates and elevated levels of domestic terrorism.

However, a close reading of the report’s statistics reveals that of the 2950 domestic terrorism cases handled by the FBI, the vast majority were “related to the 6 January siege of the US Capitol.”

Those cases included “parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol Building.”

May 24, 2025 - Former Obama aide admits he hid Biden’s cognitive decline; “I want him to f*cking win because I care about the country!”

Former Obama aide Jon Lovett, co-host of the “Pod Save America” podcast, recently admitted in an interview with Jon Stewart that while he wasn’t “behind the scenes” like Biden’s handlers, he did stay silent about his concerns on Biden’s health and mental capabilities.

The episode of Jon Stewart’s “The Weekly Show” podcast aired on Thursday.

“I remember feeling, I want to talk about this as a huge liability,” Lovett recalled. “But I’m not going to go so far as to say, ‘I think Joe Biden must drop out. He is too old to be president.’”

“I want him to f*cking win because I care about the country!”

Lovett said he didn’t want to make too much noise and become “part of the case against Joe Biden from the Right.”

May 24, 2025 - DNI Tulsi Gabbard takes operational control of the Presidential Daily Brief (PDB)

Interestingly, just a few days before Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, took control of the National Intelligence Council (NIC) away from the CIA, Gabbard also made a move that is just as consequential and directly related.

It is pretty clear now the NIC was in the middle of a domestic Intelligence Community operation against the Trump administration when Tulsi Gabbard intercepted it (we hope with support from CIA Director John Ratcliffe, but we are not sure).  {GO DEEP} It is clear from the comments by SoS/NSA Rubio, that several media outlets were poised and awaiting leaks from the NIC in anticipation of fulfilling their role to advance the operation. [SEE HERE] DNI Gabbard essentially quashed their plan.

(Credit: Conservative Treehouse)

However, I was not aware that it was pushed into the public sphere where DNI Gabbard had taken control of the Presidential Daily Brief simultaneous to her confrontation with the NIC operation. [NYT LINK, Archive]  I am writing this update to inform and also ensure the CTH library has a reference point for future discussions.  Please familiarize yourself with the citations above as well as two very important outlines.

#1 – The unrealized power of the DNI and the possibilities for Trump’s appointed Director of National Intelligence, if a particular process was followed {GO DEEP}. #2 – The actual purpose of the Presidential Daily Brief (PDB), as well as the modern weaponization of it by the CIA. {GO DEEP}.   Those two citations are important context to understand a very visible dynamic taking place.

On the same day that DNI Tulsi Gabbard took control of the PDB away from the CIA, DNI Gabbard also removed the National Intelligence Council from the CIA.  This is very good news and highlights both President Trump and DNI Gabbard understanding the unrealized potential power of the DNI that we have discussed on these pages.

Confronting a weaponized Intelligence Community is a key facet of interest for us because it is a core component battle against the main tools of the Fourth Branch of Government.  The IC influence is in every policy related to Trump’s domestic and foreign agenda. Taking control and neutering the capabilities of the IC and CIA specifically, is a key undertaking.

With the horrible National Security Advisor Mike Waltz removed, and with Marco Rubio taking control of the National Security Council, now the moves by DNI Tulsi Gabbard begin to take on a much more deliberate context.  Now I can be somewhat more optimistic about what we are seeing unfold, albeit it will likely remain unnoticed by almost all other reviewers of politics.  Y’all are well aware the need for this IC confrontation has long been one of my biggest focuses.

The article is within the New York Times, which means the anonymous sources are from within the DHS/DNI (domestic IC) apparatus.

NYT – Tulsi Gabbard, the director of national intelligence, is moving the assembly of the president’s daily intelligence brief from the C.I.A. headquarters to her own complex, according to officials briefed on the move.

The brief, a summary of intelligence and analysis about global hot spots and national security threats, is overseen and presented to the president by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. But C.I.A. officers write much of the analysis in the document and produce it, pulling together articles and graphics on the agency’s classified computer systems.

Ms. Gabbard’s decision comes as President Trump has openly mused to aides over time about whether the office she leads — which was created after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks to improve interagency coordination — should continue to exist, according to two people with knowledge of his remarks. Ms. Gabbard has discussed Mr. Trump’s concerns with him directly and has considered how to overhaul the office, according to one official.

(…) The C.I.A. memo said that while the directorate of analysis role in supporting the daily brief would evolve, “we will remain laser-focused on the president’s and Director Ratcliffe’s priorities and our core mission — generating and delivering insight with impact, free from political or personal bias.”

It is not clear how many C.I.A. personnel assigned to the P.D.B., as the brief is called, and to the National Intelligence Council will move. People familiar with the matter, who were not authorized to discuss internal concerns publicly, said a number of employees at the agency were looking for new assignments to avoid moving to Ms. Gabbard’s office. (Link, non-Paywall Archive)

The DNI position comes as an outcome of The Patriot Act and as I have repeatedly said, that position has never been fully functionalized.  In essence, the DNI can be more powerful than all of the feeder elements into the intelligence apparatus.

The ODNI was formed in 2004, with the intent for the office to be the pivot point of a national security radar.   The DNI was intended to provide information to domestic agencies about foreign terror networks that would prevent something like 9-11 from happening again.  However, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence has never, not for one day, operated on this intent.   This is why they are such a critical position from my perspective.

I said in August of 2024, “The DNI can make the FBI, DOJ, DOJ-NSD, DoD, DoS and CIA provide anything and everything they demand.  Instead of the other silos using blocks and threats against the office of the President, use the authority of the DNI to get them without confrontation.   Then use the DNI to declassify the documents (if requested by potus), instead of the originating silo.

Can you see how the DNI office can be repurposed to be a seriously strong weapon in the toolbox of the President, against the schemes of those inside the various IC silos? The DNI becomes much more important than the CIA Director, NSA Director, FBI Director, Attorney General, etc, because the DNI can just show up and say, “give me this.”  That’s the whole functional purpose of the DNI office that has never been exerted; let’s flippin’ use it.

Let’s use the office of the DNI as the central information hub that takes information from inside the corrupt silos, then provides that information to the President who puts sunlight upon it.  Each corrupt silo penetrated with disinfectant.  This could begin a process to pull down the shadow operations and let the American public see what has been happening inside our IC apparatus.”

It would appear that President Trump and Tulsi Gabbard are doing exactly that, and I am extremely pleased/thankful to see this plan of action in place.

Now, there’s another element to this.  The Dept of Homeland Security Secretary, Kristi Noem, reports directly to President Trump.  However, for all material intents and purposes of the post-911 design, the DHS Secretary also reports to the Director of National Intelligence, that’s Tulsi Gabbard.

The DHS Secretary directly controls the Transportation Safety Administration (TSA).  Do you remember the story of Tulsi Gabbard being targeted by the Joe Biden DHS/TSA under the “Quiet Skies” operation?  All of that information is at the fingertips of DNI Tulsi Gabbard.

So, I will leave you to think of this with a little optimism.  Here is Tulsi Gabbard today discussing how Joe Biden defined “Domestic Violent Extremists,” and also a discussion about her own personal targeting on the “Quiet Skies” watch list.

Keep in mind, ODNI Tulsi Gabbard has access to every document, note, list and detail of the TSA program that targeted her.  Tulsi Gabbard knows exactly who put her on the watch list, when, why and how, as well as who else was/is targeted under this program.

May 26, 2025 - Dems second term plan was to have Biden show "proof of life" occasionally while aides ran the show

FOX News Sunday” host Shannon Bream interviews journalist and author Alex Thompson and asks about a passage from his new book “Original Sin,” where he was told the plan for a second term was to have aides run the show while President Biden occasionally made appearances for “proof of life.”

SHANNON BREAM, FOX NEWS SUNDAY: You quote a long-time Biden aide basically admitting he shouldn’t be running again. They said to you on page 85, ‘He just had to win, and then he could disappear for four years. He’d only have to show proof of life every once in a while. His aides could pick up the slack.’ Who would have been running the White House in a second Biden term

ALEX THOMPSON, CO-AUTHOR: Well, this person went on to say that when you’re voting for a president, you’re voting for the aides around him. But these aides were not even Senate-confirmed aides. These are White House aides. These were unelected people. And one of the things that really I think comes out in our reporting here is that if you believe — and I think a lot of these people do sincerely believe that Donald Trump was and is an existential threat to democracy — you can rationalize anything, including sometimes doing undemocratic things, which I think is what this person is talking about.

May 28, 2025 - DNC Vice Chair David Hogg reveals Jill Biden's Chief of Staff ran the Biden White House

Project Veritas today released Part One of an explosive undercover investigation revealing shocking truths about who truly controlled the Biden White House. Through covert meetings with David Hogg, Vice Chair of the Democratic National Committee, and Deterrian Jones, former staffer in the Biden White House Office of Digital Strategy, Veritas uncovered a web of influence centered around Jill Biden’s Chief of Staff, Anthony Bernal, and a tight-knit inner circle.

In candid, on-camera admissions, Hogg stated, “Jill Biden’s Chief of Staff [Anthony Bernal] had an enormous amount of power,” emphasizing that “the bigger issue was the inner circle that was around Biden.” These revelations point to a hidden power structure that operated behind the scenes, raising questions about transparency and accountability in the Biden administration.

Deterrian Jones, who worked directly in the Biden White House, described Bernal as a “shadowy, wizard of oz-type figure” who “wielded an enormous amount of power.” Jones admitted to avoiding Bernal, calling him “scary” and noting that his influence was an “open secret” among staff. These statements expose a culture of fear and unchecked authority within the administration.

Project Veritas has once again unmasked the secrets political leaders hide from the public. This investigation unveils the true power brokers behind the Biden White House, exposing truths the American people have a right to know.

In the upcoming second part of this series, Project Veritas will reveal additional inside knowledge about corruption, threats, and hidden DC secrets, as revealed by controversial DNC Vice Chair David Hogg. (Project Veritas, 5/28/2025)  (Archive)

UPDATE-5/29/2025

May 28, 2025 - Grassley releases FBI doc proving Nellie Ohr lied to Congress about her involvement in Crossfire Hurricane/Trump-Russia hoax

(Credit: Conservative Treehouse)

Despite providing demonstrably false information to Congress, Nellie Ohr was never held accountable for contributing to the FBI and DOJ’s Trump-Russia hoax

BUTLER COUNTY, IOWA – The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Department of Justice (DOJ) failed to prosecute Fusion GPS contractor Nellie Ohr for lying to Congress about her role in advancing the FBI and DOJ’s Crossfire Hurricane investigation, according to an internal FBI analysis confirming Ohr’s false congressional testimony.

The 2019 FBI analysis, obtained by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) and declassified at the chairman’s request, provides detailed evidence Ohr lied to Congress during sworn testimony and, as a result, obstructed ongoing congressional investigations, violating federal statutes 18 U.S.C. § 1001 and 18 U.S.C § 1505. The document also exposes how the FBI prevented agents from reviewing all relevant information necessary to perform a full analysis of the extent of Ohr’s false testimony and her role in the fake Russia collusion investigation.

“By lying to Congress, Nellie Ohr showed contempt for congressional oversight and the American people. What’s more, the FBI and DOJ’s failure to hold Ohr accountable for appearing to commit multiple felonies and its obstructive conduct against agents that sought additional information reveals the agencies’ deeply disturbing political bias. Ohr never suffered consequences for advancing the phony Trump-Russia narrative and attempting to cover up her involvement in the hoax. Yet time and again, the American justice system has been weaponized against President Trump and his associates with reckless abandon,” Grassley said. “The DOJ’s inaction on Nellie Ohr’s criminal referral – despite the obviously incriminating evidence provided in the FBI’s own analysis – undermines public trust in the rule of law. I applaud Director Patel, Attorney General Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Blanche for cooperating with my request to declassify this information, which is in the public’s interest, and chart a new course for transparency and accountability at the FBI and DOJ.”

Read the unclassified Nellie Ohr analysis HERE.

Background:

Nellie Ohr was employed by the political opposition research firm Fusion GPS between 2015 to 2016 to perform open-source research attempting to connect then-presidential candidate Donald Trump to Russian organized crime. This research was paid for by the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign and Democratic National Committee (DNC). Both organizations ultimately settled with the Federal Election Commission after allegations of campaign finance violations for intentionally misreporting the true purpose of the payments.

At the time of Nellie Ohr’s Fusion GPS employment, her husband, Bruce Ohr, was an Associate Deputy Attorney General at DOJ. Both Nellie and Bruce Ohr testified to the House Committee on the Judiciary and the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform in 2018 as part of the committees’ oversight of the FBI’s bogus 2016 Crossfire Hurricane investigation into President Trump’s disproven collusion with Russia.

In 2019, then-Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.), a member of the House Oversight Committee, filed a criminal referral with DOJ asserting Nellie Ohr knowingly provided false testimony to the House committees.

Key Findings of the FBI’s 2019 Nellie Ohr Analysis: 

  • Nellie Ohr may have been involved in drafting aspects of the Steele Dossier and conspired with her husband, Bruce Ohr, to ensure high-level FBI officials received her work product, while Fusion GPS coordinated with media entities to legitimize the FBI’s opening of its now discredited Trump-Russia investigation.
  • Nellie Ohr may have falsely testified to Congress that she had no knowledge of the DOJ’s Trump-Russia investigation (pg. 13).
    • Nellie Ohr gave a thumb drive containing her Fusion GPS work to her husband, Bruce Ohr, which he then provided to the FBI as part of its ongoing investigation (pg. 14).
    • Nellie Ohr’s email traffic shows she emailed her Russian investigative research directly to Bruce Ohr. Nellie’s research closely mirrored the DOJ and FBI’s Trump-Russia investigation (pgs. 15-16).
    • Bruce Ohr only shared information with the FBI relating to the Trump-Russia investigation after receiving it from his wife, Nellie Ohr (pgs. 15-17).
    • Nellie Ohr and Bruce Ohr met personally with British intelligence officer and Fusion GPS contractor, Christopher Steele, in 2016 (pg. 21).
    • Fusion GPS pitched Nellie Ohr’s research to the Department of State (DOS) for additional investigation, per DOS emails (pg. 23).
    • Nellie Ohr deleted emails with Russia-focused DOJ prosecutors, indicating an effort to conceal her exchanges with DOJ officials involved in the Trump-Russia investigation (pg. 24).
  • Nellie Ohr may have falsely testified to Congress that she was not involved in drafting the Steele Dossier (pgs. 25-28).
    • Nellie Ohr made an analytical error in her own research identical to that in the Steele Dossier (pgs. 29-30).
    • A report deleted from a thumb drive owned by Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson and provided to the FBI via Bruce Ohr contained the same subject matter researched by Nellie Ohr (pg. 31-33).
  • In direct contradiction to her congressional testimony, Nellie Ohr disseminated Fusion GPS research to DOJ prosecutors beyond those identified in her testimony (pg. 33).
    • Nellie Ohr repeatedly sent information to the following DOJ officials: Lisa Holtyn, Ivana Nizich, Joseph Wheatley (pgs. 34-37).
  • In direct contradiction to her congressional testimony, Nellie Ohr took six ham radio classes and an exam during her time as a Fusion GPS employee (pg. 37). Ham radios can facilitate international communication without the use of a cell signal.
    • Nellie Ohr claimed her ham radio training occurred before she was employed by Fusion GPS. However, per records from the Fairfax Fire and Rescue Department and Federal Communications Commission, Nellie Ohr’s entire ham radio training occurred between March to May 2016, while working at Fusion GPS.
  • Nellie Ohr may have been involved in the “Alfa dossier,” an additional sham document attempting to connect Trump to Russian crime (pg. 40).

May 29, 2025 - Bongino discovers a trove of evidence from multiple cases under James Comey, hidden within the agency

Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino reveals that they discovered a trove of evidence from multiple cases under James Comey, hidden in a secret room within the agency:

“There was a room, and we found a lot of stuff, A hidden room. I wouldn’t call it hidden, but hidden from us, at least, and not mentioned to us. We found stuff in there, and a lot of it’s from the Comey era.”

“We are working our damnedest right now to declassify. I totally understand people saying, ‘well do it now.’ The process is not all the information is ours to declassify some as other intelligence agencies. It’s not. We literally can’t do it.”

“Once that gets done and gets out there… And you read some of the stuff we found in bags hiding under James Comey.. You’re going to be stunned.”

May 29, 2025 - An IT Specialist at DIA attempts to transmit national defense info to what he thought was an agent of a foreign government

An IT specialist employed by the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) was arrested today for attempting to transmit national defense information to an officer or agent of a foreign government.

Nathan Vilas Laatsch, 28, of Alexandria, Virginia, was arrested today in northern Virginia, and will make his initial court appearance in the Eastern District of Virginia tomorrow.

According to court documents, Laatsch became a civilian employee of the DIA in 2019, where he works with the Insider Threat Division and holds a Top Secret security clearance. In March 2025, the FBI commenced an operation after receiving a tip that an individual — now known to be Laatsch — offered to provide classified information to a friendly foreign government. In that email, the sender wrote that he did not “agree or align with the values of this administration” and was therefore “willing to share classified information” that he had access to, including “completed intelligence products, some unprocessed intelligence, and other assorted classified documentation.”

After multiple communications with an FBI agent — who Laatsch allegedly believed to be an official of the foreign government — Laatsch began transcribing classified information to a notepad at his desk and, over the course of approximately three days, repeatedly exfiltrated the information from his workspace. Laatsch subsequently confirmed to the FBI agent that he was prepared to transmit the information.

Thereafter, the FBI implemented an operation at a public park in northern Virginia, where Laatsch believed he would deposit the classified information for the foreign government to retrieve. On or about May 1, 2025, FBI surveillance observed Laatsch proceed to the specified location and deposit an item. Following Laatsch’s departure, the FBI retrieved the item, which was a thumb drive later found to contain a message from Laatsch and multiple typed documents, each containing information that was portion-marked up to the Secret or Top Secret levels. The message from Laatsch indicated that he had chosen to include “a decent sample size” of classified information to “decently demonstrate the range of types of products” to which he had access.

After receiving confirmation that the thumb drive had been received, on May 7, Laatsch allegedly sent a message to the FBI agent, which indicated Laatsch was seeking something from the foreign government in return for continuing to provide classified information. The next day, Laatsch specified that he was interested in “citizenship for your country” because he did not “expect[] things here to improve in the long term.” Although he said he was “not opposed to other compensation,” he was not in a position where he needed to seek “material compensation.”

On May 14, the FBI agent advised Laatsch that it was prepared to receive additional classified information. Between May 15 and May 27, Laatsch again repeatedly transcribed multiple pages of notes while logged into his classified workstation, folded the notes, and exfiltrated the classified information in his clothing.

On May 29, Laatsch arrived at a prearranged location in northern Virginia, where Laatsch again allegedly attempted to transmit multiple classified documents to the foreign country. Laatsch was arrested upon the FBI’s receipt of the documents.

May 29, 2025 - Nevada DHHS Specialist is caught on camera admitting to “bending the rules” to provide benefits for illegal immigrants

Deshaun Eli Mack, a Family Services Specialist with the Nevada Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), has been caught on hidden camera admitting to intentionally violating state policies to provide government-funded benefits to undocumented immigrants.

Mack detailed how he manipulates the system to offer extended emergency Medicaid coverage to illegals, stating, “I get them emergency medical all the time… just because I want to.”

According to Mack, emergency Medicaid for undocumented immigrants is supposed to be granted on a month-to-month basis and only for severe, qualifying conditions. However, he confessed that he bypasses this process entirely. “They’re supposed to apply every month,” he said, “so I just approve them for 12 months… because I can.”

When asked if that kind of discretion was allowed, Mack responded bluntly: “I make it so. I bend the rules a lot.” He added later, “I will twist and turn our provisions to fit the way that I want them to be.”

Mack also acknowledged a culture within the agency of avoiding cooperation with federal immigration authorities, stating, “We would never call ICE. We do not work with them ever.”

When pressed on whether this behavior amounted to subverting the law, Mack didn’t hesitate: “I do that a lot.”

Mack’s conduct could potentially violate multiple Nevada laws, including statutes related to misappropriation of public funds and the Nevada False Claims Act, which prohibits knowingly approving or submitting false claims for state payment.

OMG has reached out to Mack and the Nevada Department of Health and Human Services for comment on Mack’s remarks.

When contacted by OMG, Mack initially denied wrongdoing, stating, “I don’t [break the law], because I’m not.” Presented with his own recorded statements, Mack shifted his position, claiming, “I say a lot of things that I don’t mean” and eventually admitted, “I lie all the time.” He suggested he may have exaggerated to impress the undercover journalist, saying, “Absolutely,” when asked if that was the reason for his comments. Despite the specificity of his original statements, Mack ultimately claimed, “None of those words I said were true.”

More revelations to come. Stay tuned for part 2. (O’Keefe Media Group, 5/29/2025)  (Archive)

May 29, 2025 - A USDA employee and five others are busted in one of the largest food stamp frauds in American history

The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York announced on Thursday that a longtime USDA employee and five others were busted in one of the largest food stamp frauds in U.S. history.

A short time ago, Perry Carbone, Attorney for the United States, Charmeka Parker, the Special Agent in Charge of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Office of Inspector General and Christopher G. Raia, the Assistant Director in Charge of the New York Field Office of the FBI revealed a superseding indictment was unsealed charging six people in connection with a $66 million-plus fraud and bribery scheme under the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) aka food stamp program.

Michael Kehoe, Mohamad Nawafleh, Omar Alrawashdeh, Gamal Obaid, Emad Alrawashdeh, and Arlasa Davis have been hit with multiple charges, including conspiracy to steal government funds and to misappropriate USDA benefits. Davis, a USDA employee who worked as a program specialist, was employed in the division of the agency responsible for identifying SNAP fraud.

As the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York explains, Kehoe started a network in 2019 that handed over roughly 160 illegal EBT terminals to stores across the New York area to steal more than $30 million in EBT transactions. With the help of his co-conspirators, Nawafleh, Omar Alrawashdeh, Obaid, and Emad Alrawashdeh, Kehoe submitted approximately 200 fraudulent USDA applications, misappropriated USDA license numbers, and even forged application documents to acquire EBT terminals for unauthorized stores.

The stores included smoke shops and other businesses not eligible for USDA funds.

Davis was critical to the scheme. The Southern District of New York Attorney’s office notes that she took advantage of her position to sell hundreds of EBT license numbers.

“Michael Kehoe and his co-conspirators misappropriated tens of millions of dollars in taxpayer funds meant to help low-income families put food on the table,” Carbone explained. “This fraud was made possible when USDA employee Arlasa Davis betrayed the public trust by selling confidential government information to the very criminals she was supposed to catch.” (Read more: Gateway Pundit, 5/29/2025)  (Archive)

May 28, 2025 - Nashville Mayor Freddie O'Connell’s office doxxed the names of ICE and DHS agents

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and U.S. Senator Marsha Blackburn are slamming Nashville’s mayor after his office posted the names of ICE agents and Homeland Security Investigators.

FOX 17 News first reported this on Wednesday.

After our story aired, the mayor’s office removed those names and told FOX 17 News the names were “mistakenly included in the information posted online.”

Critics of Mayor Freddie O’Connell say releasing the names was no mistake and puts federal agents at risk.

Supporters of Mayor O’Connell insist it was not malicious.

The names of ICE officers and Homeland Security Investigators are no longer visible on the Office of New Americans’ website, following our discovery of the public data.

This stemmed from Mayor O’Connell’s amended Executive Order 30.

The mayor’s office previously told FOX 17 News it made the interactions with ICE agents public in the name of transparency. (Read more: Fox17 Nashville, 5/30/2025)  (Archive)

May 30, 2025 - Whistleblower claims Biden decline was so bad he would sometimes get lost in White House closet

As more reports emerge about former President Biden’s alleged cognitive decline during his time in office, a Republican senator has made an explosive new claim: that Biden would sometimes get lost in a closet inside the White House while serving as commander-in-chief.

Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., made the stunning claim on “Hannity” Friday, citing an unnamed Secret Service whistleblower who Hawley said was assigned to Biden.

“He [Secret Service member] told me that Biden used to get lost in his closet in the mornings in the White House,” Hawley said. “I mean, the guy literally stumbling around in the White House residence couldn’t find his way out of his own closet. The president of the United States. I mean, this is outrageous. We were lied to.”

May 30, 2025 - U.S. cancels contracts worth $766 million for Moderna Bird Flu vaccine after ‘rigorous review’

“After a rigorous review, we concluded that continued investment in Moderna’s H5N1 mRNA vaccine was not scientifically or ethically justifiable,” HHS Communications Director Andrew Nixon told The Defender.

“This is not simply about efficacy — it’s about safety, integrity and trust. The reality is that mRNA technology remains under-tested, and we are not going to spend taxpayer dollars repeating the mistakes of the last administration, which concealed legitimate safety concerns from the public,” Nixon said.

May 31, 2025 - Musk ally Jared Isaacman’s Democrat donations torpedoes NASA appointment; Sparks speculation over Elon’s angst

“We don’t confirm Schumer donors in this administration,” said a source close to the Trump team — referencing the quiet but decisive move to pull billionaire entrepreneur Jared Isaacman from consideration as the head of NASA under the second Trump Administration. 

Isaacman — a close ally of Elon Musk, SpaceX collaborator, private astronaut, and founder of Shift4 — was under serious consideration for a high-level appointment. But his name was withdrawn after campaign finance records revealed over $200,000 in donations to prominent Democratic politicians, committees, and super PACs.

The donations, all made in recent election cycles, include contributions to some of the most powerful Democrat operatives and institutions:

Jared Isaacman’s Political Donations (2021–2024):

  • $100,000 to Senate Majority PAC (10/28/2021) — aligned with Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY)
  • $50,000 to Josh Shapiro for Governor (3/2/2022)
  • $10,000 to the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (3/29/2022)
  • $10,000 to the Democratic Party of Pennsylvania (7/22/2024)
  • $10,000 to the Michigan Democratic State Central Committee (8/1/2024)
  • $2,500 to George Whitesides for Congress (6/28/2022)
  • $2,500 to George Whitesides for Congress (11/8/2022)
  • $1,000 to Rep. Susan Wild (D-PA)
  • $500 to Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA)
  • $5,000 to Keystone America PAC (Democrat-aligned PA PAC)
  • $5,000 to Mitten PAC (Democrat-aligned MI PAC)

Notably absent from Isaacman’s financial history: any donations to President Donald Trump, his campaign, or any Trump-aligned political action committee.

(…) President Donald Trump officially withdrew Jared Isaacman’s nomination to lead NASA on May 31, 2025. The announcement came just days before the Senate was scheduled to vote on Isaacman’s confirmation, which had already advanced with bipartisan support. Following the withdrawal, Trump indicated that a new nominee aligned with his “America First” space policy would be announced soon. Retired Air Force Lt. Gen. Steven Kwast has been mentioned as a potential replacement.

Isaacman’s donations, all on record with the Federal Election Commission and compiled by OpenSecrets.org, leave little doubt about his political leanings in recent cycles.

The takeaway from the Trump team, according to insiders: if you back Chuck Schumer with six-figure donations, don’t expect to be appointed in a Trump administration.
