August 12, 2025 - Running down the leakers: The Kushner Leaks – "Sirens Lure"

As part of the effort to sabotage Trump and to render ineffective his staff, there were also leaks to the Washington Post, The New York Times, and CNN targeting Jared Kushner, alleging improper and shady contacts with Russia. The FBI’s investigation into those leaks was opened in September 2017 under the name Sirens Lure.

As was the case with the other leak investigations, the FBI faced a daunting task: it initially identified “over 192 individuals in the subject pool” across various parts of the government, from the Intelligence Community to Congress.

Notably, some of the media reports concerning Kushner occurred after a “Read Room” was established for members of Congress to view classified information. House Democrats restricted access to at least one HPSCI staffer from an FBI interview “based on Speech or Debate privileges.”

This led the FBI to back-off attempts to interview other Congressional Democrat staffers. Though the FBI considered search warrants but either the FBI or the DOJ decided against that course of action. Without the capabilities to pursue the investigation further, and faced with the prospects of interviewing over 192 potential subjects (the number was likely much higher), Sirens Lures was closed in May 2021.

FBI Memos –  Classified Leaks Investigation

August 13, 2025 - Victor Davis Hanson to Democrat Party: “You have been the most vicious and the most abject subverters of democracy"

PAYBACK.

Victor Davis Hanson just EXPOSED how the Left UNDERMINED democracy while pretending to defend it.

He laid out three UNDENIABLE examples.

Now they’re POWERLESS—standing atop a house of cards.

Then came one of the most BRUTAL indictments of the modern Democrat Party:

“You have been the most vicious and the most abject subverters of democracy, all for the short term gain of destroying Donald Trump.”

🧵 THREAD

Victor Davis Hanson just held a mirror up to the modern Democrat Party the reflection wasn’t flattering.

According to Hanson, their entire political strategy now hinges on a single claim: that they are “saving democracy” from Donald Trump.

But peel back the rhetoric, and the reality looks very different.

“The Democrats have a new narrative. The left in general does, that they are ‘saving democracy’ from Donald Trump, and that justifies almost any means necessary to achieve the end of destroying or preventing Donald Trump from governing effectively.”

Hanson laid out in simple terms the glaring contradiction: “The problem with all of this is they are destroying democracy to destroy Donald Trump.”

It’s not even a metaphor.

It’s a direct inversion of what they claim to stand for.

And to prove it, he walked through exactly how this mindset has played out in real-time.

Take gerrymandering.

Hanson pointed to it as a textbook example of the left projecting what they’ve already done onto their opponents.

Now that Republicans are playing by the same rules, Democrats are screaming foul.

But what’s good for the goose, is good for the gander.

“One of the issues that they are agitating is the redistricting of congressional districts in Texas, in California now,” he said.

“And the general problem that the left has is if you look at gerrymandering to make these jigsaw puzzle piece-like districts, the left is way ahead of the right.”

He pointed out that in many states where Trump won 40–50% of the vote, Republican representation in Congress doesn’t come close to matching that.

And he backed it up: “There’s been sophisticated studies of gerrymandering, and it boils down to the Republicans are short, some 6 to 10 seats in the House based on the proportion of the national vote they have received.”

So why the outrage now? Because Democrats fear losing their edge.

“The Democrats know that, but they’re angry about the Texas reapportionment and gerrymandering, and their attitude is we’ve already gerrymandered our states to the maximum. Don’t dare try to emulate us.”

When Republicans do, suddenly it’s a threat to democracy.

In response, Democrat blowhards like James Carville have doubled down on a new mantra: get tougher.

But as Hanson explained, the Democrats are already there.

“James Carville said that they have to get tougher. That’s the new mantra.”

And yet, he argued, they’ve been anything but restrained.

“Got to get tougher, got to get meaner. Cory Booker screams and yells and throws a fit about every three weeks in the Senate. Hakeem Jeffries picks up his baseball bat. There’s usually a video with the squad or representatives using the word ‘sh—’ or the F word, kind of pornographic.”

“Jasmine Crockett periodically calls Donald Trump names that are—can’t be repeated on air. But you can see the anger.”

He paused before making the point crystal clear: “They have been too tough.”

That set the stage for Hanson’s most serious charge.

The three earth-shattering scandals Democrats have orchestrated to cripple Trump weren’t just aggressive…they were unprecedented.

They make Watergate look like a tea party on the South Lawn.

“There’s been three great scandals in the 21st century,” he said.

“The first was the Russian collusion hoax that was prompted by Hillary Clinton and facilitated by the Obama administration on its way out, that almost destroyed the Trump campaign, sabotaged his transition, and ate up 22 months of his first two years.”

He continued:

“The second was the Biden, FBI and CIA—but especially the CIA and the intelligence agencies—got 51 people, former intelligence authorities, to LIE to the American people on the eve of the second debate to affect the 2020 election, and claimed, falsely, that Donald Trump was lying about the laptop of Hunter Biden.”

“That was a complete lie. It was Hunter’s laptop. We know, because the FBI had it in its possession and authenticated it.”

And then came the third.

“The great scandal,” Hanson said, “that the Democratic Party and the obsequious media knew that Joe Biden was non compos mentis, he was not cognitively able to fulfill the office of the presidency.”

He described how they hid it from the public…until it became impossible to hide.

“When he finally challenged Donald Trump to a debate and melted and before our very eyes, sort of like the Wicked Witch in The Wizard of Oz, he melted into a non-entity.”

What an image.

Maybe this could be used as a metaphor for the current state of the Democrat Party.

Melting.

Hanson broadened the lens.

He argued that when you line up the pattern of actions, from media lies to lawfare to ballot bans, one thing becomes clear: the Democrats aren’t protecting democracy.

They’ve been gutting it.

“If you look at the Democrats, they have staged three great scandals to try to destroy the Trump administration and by extension, democracy.”

Then he listed more.

Each transgression against democracy, stabbing like a dagger.

“They impeached Donald Trump twice. No one’s ever done that.”

“They tried him as a private citizen. Nobody’s ever done that.”

“They raided his home in Mar-a-Lago. That is a terrible precedent for an ex-president. No one has ever done that.”

“They tried to get him off the ballot in 25 states. No one had ever done that.”

“There were two assassination attempts during the campaign that had never happened before.”

“They tried to debunk him and make it impossible for Donald Trump to write a check, whether from Morgan Stanley or Bank of America or any bank.”

So when Carville says Democrats are now going to get tough?

They already did.

Hanson says it’s TOTAL gaslighting.

“When James Carville says, we’re going to get tough, we’re going to get really tough, and we’re going to let in Puerto Rico and Washington, DC to get four senators, or we might have to pack the court to 13 justices, I’m thinking, well, you always were going to do that.”

He went even further.

“If you had not lost the House and Senate during the Biden administration, had you had a normal president that was in control of his mental and physical abilities, then you would have not only packed the court and not only, as you promised, let in two states, but in addition, you would have gotten rid of the Electoral College by the hook and crook of the National Voter Compact.”

“And more importantly, you would have abolished the Senate.”

That’s why the Democrats’ narrative is collapsing under its own weight.

“So the problem, James Carville, and Democrats, is that you have sabotaged democracy, and you’ve done things that no one has ever done before to an oppositional candidate, presidential transition, and president.”

Now, the consequences are finally catching up with them…not because they were too soft, but because they pushed too far and failed.

They are both powerless and rudderless, lost at sea.

“You’re furious because you’re on the 40% side of every issue that’s dear to you, from the trans issue to the border issue to the crime issue, to the Green New Deal issue, to foreign policy, and you have no political power.”

“You don’t have the White House, you don’t have the Congress, you don’t have the Supreme Court.”

“And your institutional power—the media, academia, the foundation—they are under assault.”

So now, he said, they’re spinning a new story to distract from what’s really happening.

“You’ve created this completely false narrative that you have to get tough… In fact, the opposite is true, everybody.”

Then he delivered the final blow with the grace and eloquence only Hanson could bring. It was knockout punch after knockout punch.

It cut directly to the core of Democrat Party….bare for the world to see.

“You have been the most vicious and the most abject subverters of democracy all for the short term gain of destroying Donald Trump.”

“And now that’s boomeranging upon you, and you don’t like to see it happen to you, what you tried to do to Donald Trump.”

“There’s a whole vocabulary cross-culturally for what is happening to you now. It’s called payback is a ‘blank’, karma, boomerang, do unto others as you should do unto you, only eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth.”

“But this is called retribution and it’s fully earned for what you’ve done to democracy, as long as it’s legal and it’s necessary.”

“You’re angry because you’re impotent, and you created false narratives that Donald Trump is doing what you have actually done.”

“And what is that? Destroying democracy.”

Wow, that was BRUTAL, but accurate.

VDH: Democrats Betray Democracy to Stop Trump

The Left claims they’re “saving democracy” from Donald Trump—but their actions tell a different story.

Democrats have pushed some of the most brazen political scandals in modern history—from the Russia collusion hoax, to burying the Hunter Biden laptop, to hiding President Biden’s cognitive decline—all in the name of stopping Trump.

@VDHanson exposes how the Left has undermined democracy in the very process of claiming to defend it on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

“  The problem, James Carville and Democrats, is that you have sabotaged democracy. And you’ve done things that no one has ever done before to an oppositional candidate, presidential transition, and president. And now you’re furious because you’re on the 40% side of every issue that’s dear to you—from the trans issue to the border issue, to the crime issue, to the Green New Deal issue, to foreign policy. And you have no political power. You don’t have the White House, you don’t have the Congress, you don’t have the Supreme Court. And your institutional power—the media, academia, the foundation—they are under assault.”

August 13, 2025 - The Clinton Foundation cover-up timeline the FBI didn’t want you to see

Credit where it’s due: investigative journalists John Solomon and Jerry Dunleavy at Just the News have just pulled the curtain back on one of the most brazen examples of political interference in law enforcement we’ve seen since the bad old days of J. Edgar Hoover’s private files. And, just like back then, the stakes were presidential.

Thanks to a newly declassified 2017 FBI memo—kept hidden until now—we have a play-by-play timeline of how the Obama-era Department of Justice and FBI brass ran interference for Hillary Clinton during the 2016 election, smothering a serious investigation into the Clinton Foundation while going full throttle on the Trump–Russia “Crossfire Hurricane” probe.

The memo lays out, in black and white, the internal orders to “shut it down.” That’s not my paraphrase. According to the memo, then–Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates literally told agents to stop pursuing the Clinton Foundation case—even as field offices in New York, Little Rock, and Washington believed they had enough to move forward.

Key Timeline Events

As documented by John Solomon and Jerry Dunleavy, Just the News:

  • Feb. 2016 – DOJ signals to FBI that it “would not be supportive” of investigating the Clinton Foundation.
  • Mid-Feb. 2016 – Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe orders that “no overt investigative steps” be taken without his personal approval.
  • Spring–Summer 2016 – Agents in Little Rock move to a full investigation but are denied permission to collect even basic documents.
  • June 2016 – Attorney General Loretta Lynch meets privately with Bill Clinton on the tarmac in Phoenix; both deny discussing the case.
  • July 2016 – FBI Director James Comey announces “no reasonable prosecutor” would bring a case against Clinton, effectively ending the investigation in public view.
  • Late Oct. 2016 – McCabe leaks details of the Clinton probe to The Wall Street Journal.
  • Nov. 1, 2016 – McCabe recuses himself from the case, days before the election.
  • Contrast – At the same time, the FBI opens “Crossfire Hurricane” against Trump in a matter of days based on minimal evidence.
  • 2025 – AG Pam Bondi authorizes a strike force and grand jury to investigate possible criminal conspiracies tied to the 2016 suppression.

Meanwhile, over in the Trump camp, the bureau opened a full investigation within days based on the flimsy “Australia tip” about a bar conversation involving George Papadopoulos. The Durham Report later called it “immediate.” In other words, when it was Trump, they floored the accelerator. When it was Clinton, they yanked the emergency brake.

August 13, 2025 – The Clinton Foundation cover-up timeline: FBI was investigating 19 Clinton Foundation bank accounts for campaign finance fraud before DOJ shut it down

The newly released Clinton Foundation Investigation Timeline reveals that the FBI Los Angeles Field Office was investigating 19 Clinton Foundation bank accounts for ‘campaign finance fraud’ in 2016-2017, but the investigation was shut down.

August 14, 2025 - Solomon reports there are multiple grand juries investigating conspiracy involving Clintons, Bidens and Obama administration

Megyn Kelly is joined by John Solomon, founder of “Just The News,” to discuss reports of multiple grand juries investigating alleged conspiracy involving the Clintons, Bidens, and figures in the Obama administration, the key dates in the timeline involving possible corruption, and more.

August 15, 2025 - The New York Times is pro-military coup and then calls for the destruction of the Constitution within 48 hours

Over the course of the last 48 hours, the supposed ‘paper of record’ has advocated for a military coup against Trump and called for the abolishment of the U.S. Senate and the Electoral College, and to pack the U.S. Supreme Court.

These are the people who claim to want to save Democracy? Really?

This column by two members of the Obama administration was published yesterday:

From the column:

We Used to Think the Military Would Stand Up to Trump. We Were Wrong.

By ordering 800 National Guard troops to Washington, on the pretext of an illusory crime wave, President Trump has further dragged the U.S. military into domestic law enforcement, in a move credibly perceived as an ominous “test case.” This continues what the administration started in California in June as part of the its deportation efforts.

Unfortunately, though we (and others) had hoped that the military would only respond to calls to action in American cities and states kicking and screaming, we no longer expect resistance from that institution. Once, perhaps, traditionalist officers might have leaned on protocol and refused to heed a lawless order, taking inspiration from the generals — Mark Milley and James Mattis — who resisted the uprooting of established military standards in the first Trump term.

Then today, the New York Times published this:

These are the same people who will then turn around lecture the rest of us about democracy. They are basically admitting that they can’t win unless they radically change the rules. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 8/15/2025)  (Archive)

August 15, 2025 - Federal Housing Director Bill Pulte refers Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook to DOJ for possible mortgage fraud

Trump Federal Housing Director Bill Pulte issues bombshell revelation that Biden-appointed Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook likely committed MORTGAGE FRAUD.

“[Jerome] Powell must look into it or he is complicit.”

“Ms. Cook: why did you designate your Atlanta Condo as your primary residence two weeks after declaring your Michigan home as your primary residence?”

Another mortgage fraud investigation may be opened. Wow.

August 16, 2025 - ActBlue money laundering operation exposed through fake home mortgages and is under investigation

MASSIVE ActBlue money laundering operation exposed through home mortgages and is now officially under investigation.

ActBlue is laundering cash through phantom real estate deals, turning thousands into hundreds of millions of dollars. You just can’t make this stuff up.

Democrats get a $200,000 home, create a fake $200,000,000 mortgage on the home and then launder the money through wire transfers.

This is just ONE layer of the Democrats enormous money laundering operation through ActBlue.

Over 400 carbon-copy donations on a single day led investigators to tons of hyper inflated property “sales” in California and Texas.

It was all made up. Multiple transfers in a single day, private cash lenders, no public loan records, and addresses that don’t exist.

The pattern mirrors classic Bank Secrecy Act violations, pumping millions into federal races around each election cycle, and is now in the Justice Department’s hands for potential charges under the Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2020.

This also ties into everything currently transpiring including the 2020 election, the fake IDs, ballots, and every NGO and non-profit, including connections to cartels, and big banks, such as TD Bank, who was already fined over $3 billion for letting dirty money be laundered through their systems completely under the radar or with proper oversight.

You wonder why they’re so desperate and begging for cash. USAID and ActBlue are two of their largest cash flow operations and they are either completely shut down or under investigation and about to be.

It’s only a matter of time.

August 17, 2025 - James Comey declares himself a ‘Swiftie’; says her music helps him oppose Trump

Former FBI Director James Comey declared himself a Taylor Swift fan, a.k.a. “Swiftie,” in a video posted to social media on Sunday, saying the pop star’s music gives him the strength to oppose President Donald Trump.

“I’m in a family’s Swiftie group chat. I know all her music, and I listen to it in my headphones when I cut the grass,” Comey said in the video, adding that his favorite songs are “All Too Well” and “Exile.”

The former FBI Director said that Swift’s music has been a major part of his family for several years as they have dealt  “with adversity and celebration,” saying that the pop star’s example has helped him to resist “bullies.”

“But I gotta be honest, it also leaves me with a strange feeling at times because I don’t want us to become like Trump and his followers,” he said. “There are far more decent, honest, kind people in America than there are mean jerks. And don’t get me wrong, we have our jerks, millions of them.”

(…) In July, the FBI launched an investigation into former Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director John Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey over their roles in the investigation surrounding President Donald Trump and Russia’s alleged collusion.

August 17, 2025 - Trump warns rampant judge-shopping Is the left’s ‘final weapon’ that could ‘take down America’

In a piece published yesterday, I documented how anti-Trump activist Judge James Boasberg was assigned a series of “Trump cases” in the early weeks of the second Trump administration. He then blocked and stalled part of the president’s first wave agenda.

So, how did one left-wing judge get assigned so many sensitive cases? Part of the answer is the legal tactic known as “judge-shopping,” which was patented by lawfare general and activist attorney Marc Elias.

In an exclusive interview I conducted as part of my research for Breaking the Law, President Trump has called out the practice and warned that “judge-shopping is rampant at levels never seen before. You know the outcome of a case as soon as the judge is picked.”

“And the radical left is using this, their final weapon, to take down America,” the president told me.

Judge-shopping is a straightforward idea: A politically interested party will bring a case to a court with mostly favorable judges to make it likely they get their desired outcome. For example, some courts have only one judge, so it can be easy to anticipate how a judge will rule if you bring the case to that judge’s court. Other powerful courts, such as the D.C. District Court, is composed of mostly of judges who appear to be ideologically on the left. The venue rules for federal cases (28 U.S.C. § 1391) make it so that virtually every case brought against the federal government can be filed in that court since it is often where the defendant resides or where the relevant events occurred.

Breitbart News Senior Contributor Peter Schweizer credits Marc Elias, a high priest of lawfare if there ever was one, with popularizing the venue-shopping tactic. According to Schweizer, Elias was able to swing the highly contested 2008 Minnesota senate race for Democrat Al Franken over Republican Norm Coleman by finding a specific court to legitimize over a thousand ballots that had previously been rejected because they had potentially been cast by convicted felons.

(…) The left has used Elias’s tactic to great effect, politicizing the courts and ensuring there is no equal justice under the law for political conservatives.

It is imperative we move to end judge and forum-shopping immediately. The damage a politicized judge can do goes beyond injunctions and TROs. These judges decide the rules of the court, who and what goes in and out, what decisions juries can and can’t make, etc. As was the case in Judge Juan Merchan’s courtroom, the jury instructions and other peculiarities of a particular judge’s courtroom can determine the outcome of the case.

August 17, 2025 - Ed Martin puts Jan 6 Committee members and Adam Schiff on notice: “When this comes out, it’ll take the whole of these people’s hoaxes down”

On Sunday, Ed Martin, DOJ Pardon Attorney and Director of Weaponization, appeared on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo to discuss Adam Schiff’s mortgage fraud, the Trump-Russia hoax, January 6 Committee members and the Biden autopen scandal.

Ed Martin revealed the DOJ is investigating members of the unconstitutional January 6 Committee.

The nine members of the January 6 Select Committee included: Chairman Bennie Thompson, Vice Chair Liz Cheney and other members were: Adam Schiff, Zoe Lofgren, Jamie Raskin, Pete Aguilar, Stephanie Murphy, Elaine Luria and Adam Kinzinger.

Separately, Rep Loudermilk recently announced he will be creating a subcommittee with subpoena power to investigate the January 6 Committee.

Ed Martin suggested January 6 Committee members will be subpoenaed… they… should ‘keep an eye on their mailbox.’

“Trust me – a lot of people did not get a pardon that were involved in the Select Committee. They ought to be keeping an eye on their mailbox because there’s a lot to be asked about,” Ed Martin said.

“Pam Bondi has let us loose and when this comes out, it will take the whole of these people’s hoaxes down and we’re doing it bit by bit,” he said.

“There’s a referral from Bill Pulte about mortgage fraud…but now there’s more on Adam Schiff. And all we’re gonna again and get to the facts of this,” he added.

August 19, 2025 - An FEC complaint is filed against US Senator Amy Klobuchar for "smurfing" millions $ from ActBlue funds

BREAKING: an FEC complaint has been filed against US Senator Amy Klobuchar today.

$9,633,912 is what she Smurfed into her three campaign committees. I know it is more however, a lot more and that will probably be an addendum.

Stop Smurfing, its criminal money laundering by politicians.

More details in retweet here:

The Fox News video I re-posted was from April 24th. But something brand new: by next week I will have filed an FEC complaint against US Senator Amy Klobuchar.

KLOBUCHAR FOR MINNESOTA takes $3,946,364 USD in 46,448 Smurfing Contributions, from 5,160 Contributors.

AMY FOR AMERICA takes $4,880,382 USD in 66,796 Smurfing Contributions, from 7,724 Contributors.

AMY KLOBUCHAR VICTORY COMMITTEE takes $807,166 USD in 309 Smurfing Contributions, from 239 Contributors.

Totaling $9,633,912 of her federal campaign committees Smurfing, i.e. criminally laundering money into her campaigns. And I know it is higher yet. @amyklobuchar @SenAmyKlobuchar

Meaning Klobuchar cheated, she committed massive election fraud and in no way is the duly elected US Senator from Minnesota. Resign now Klobuchar.

President Trump orders US DOJ to launch full scale investigation into Actblue. America you’re welcome from: @immutablechrist @TheTVConsPiracy @smurfsearch @PatriotsACT @jewelsHND @JamesOKeefeIII, myself and many others who spent years researching, exposing, getting criminal investigations opened at the states’ level and then federal level against Actblue.

NOTE: @Actblue is just one campaign committee committing Smurfing, i.e. structured criminal money laundering typically using computer bots. There are over 1,300 identified committees committing Smurfing.

Including @WinRed – with US Senator Lindsey Graham being a big one out of many as just one example.

August 19, 2025 - Tulsi Gabbard strips security clearances from 37 Deep State officials tied to the Trump-Russia hoax

Being entrusted with a security clearance is a privilege, not a right. Those in the Intelligence Community who betray their oath to the Constitution and put their own interests ahead of the interests of the American people have broken the sacred trust they promised to uphold. In doing so, they undermine our national security, the safety and security of the American people and the foundational principles of our democratic republic.

This is why, at @POTUS’ direction, @ODNIgov directed the revocation of the security clearances of 37 current and former intelligence professionals who have abused the public trust by politicizing and manipulating intelligence, leaking classified intelligence without authorization, and/or committing intentional egregious violations of tradecraft standards.

Our Intelligence Community must be committed to upholding the values and principles enshrined in the US Constitution and maintain a laser-like focus on our mission of ensuring the safety, security and freedom of the American people.

August 20, 2025 - Tulsi Gabbard axes a Biden-era censorship office that was working with social media companies to censor conservatives

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard just AXED a Biden-era censorship office that was working with social media companies to censor conservatives and anti-establishment voices.

“This Center was going and working with different social media companies saying… ‘we have to censor these dissenting voices.'”

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard just delivered a win for free speech by dismantling Biden’s censorship pipeline. The Biden-era Domestic Terrorism Prevention Center wasn’t about security—it was a taxpayer-funded censorship factory. Their strategy weaponized federal agencies to pressure Big Tech into silencing dissent under the guise of “countering misinformation.” Section 3.2 of their declassified plan even pushed digital literacy programs through USAID, blurring lines between national security and ideological control.

Gabbard’s move exposes how bureaucrats hijacked counterterrorism funds to police speech instead of threats. This is why audits matter: $50M+ wasted on policing tweets while real security gaps fester.

Defund the thought police, refocus on actual threats.

August 20, 2025 - Kash Patel exposes Obama-Clinton Grand Conspiracy; confirms Russiagate, FISA court abuses, and Mar-a-Lago raid were a political hit job

FBI Director Kash Patel joined Larry Kudlow in a bombshell interview this week, and it’s ten minutes every American needs to see.

On Larry Kudlow’s show, FBI Director Kash Patel unleashed a series of bombshells that confirm what millions of Americans have long suspected: Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton were the masterminds behind the phony Russiagate hoax and the illegal invasion of President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home.

Now, Patel has confirmed it on national television, Obama and Hillary Clinton were at the very top of the conspiracy.

Kudlow pressed Patel on how the FBI could justify invading the private home of a former president, something unprecedented in American history.

Patel laid it out plainly: Russiagate, the FISA Court abuses, and the Mar-a-Lago raid were all connected. A “political operation,” not a legitimate investigation.

Kudlow also asked Patel point-blank if Obama and Hillary were the architects of this grand conspiracy.

August 20, 2025 - Peter Navarro: Time to investigate the FBI agent who tried to take down Trump and me

(Credit: Pete Marovich/NYT/Bloomberg via Getty Images)

They call Walter Giardina a Marine hero. The media portrayed him as a martyr in FBI Director Kash Patel’s recent “purge” of politicized FBI agents.

In my new book, I Went to Prison So You Won’t Have To, I call Giardina something else: the tip of the spear in a weaponized FBI campaign to destroy Donald Trump — and a disgraced FBI agent who personally targeted me and my fiancée.

(…)

Target: Navarro

In early 2022, the Democrat-controlled January 6 Committee subpoenaed me. I refused their witch hunt, citing executive privilege — not as a tactic, but because it has long been the Department of Justice’s settled policy that senior White House advisers to the president have absolute testimonial immunity from compelled congressional testimony about their official duties.

This protection exists to preserve what the Supreme Court calls candor and confidentiality in presidential communications. This is the very essence of George Washington’s doctrine of executive privilege, first asserted in 1796 to protect sensitive deliberations from legislative intrusion.

But in my case, a partisan and weaponized Biden DOJ turned its own policy on its head and indicted me anyway. I was Giardina’s huckleberry, and he went after me like a jackal — discarding over two centuries of Constitutional separation of powers protection to score a political hit.

On May 19, 2022, at 4:50 PM, Giardina emailed a group of FBI agents with the news: DOJ wanted to indict me within two weeks. His email read like a military op order: find my location, get my phone and iCloud data, plan the “knock-and-talk,” time the arrest. Every detail accounted for.

By May 24, the plan was locked: indictment on June 2, arrest on June 3 or June 7. “Media attention is anticipated,” one of the emails noted. They weren’t just planning an arrest — they were scripting a Perp Walk Media Circus.

Internal FBI emails later released by Sen. Grassley would show that after Walter Giardina updated everyone on the DOJ’s indictment plan, Assistant Special Agent in Charge Timothy Thibault replied, “Wow. Great” — a revealing glimpse of the partisan enthusiasm behind the operation. (Read more: Breitbart, 8/20/2025)  (Archive)

August 21, 2025 - Peter Schweizer: "Clinton's Russia vulnerabilities were turned into Trump's burden, projected onto his campaign in a haze of innuendo"

(…) Appearing on an OANN program this week, Schweizer told host Matt Gaetz that the government’s double standard is unmistakable. “At the same time, they are killing an organic investigation into Clinton corruption… they were also creating a completely fictional investigation tying [Donald] Trump to Russia,” he said.

Five FBI field offices had been involved before being shut down, including a satellite office in Africa. Schweizer called the saga proof of a new kind of corruption — “offshored, globalized corruption,” complete with political dynasties selling access and foreign oligarchs buying influence.

The contrast between the scuttled investigation of the Clinton Foundation and the “Crossfire Hurricane” investigation into the Trump campaign’s purported ties to Russia is glaring. While the Clinton probes were heavily throttled, the FBI raced to open a full investigation into Trump’s campaign on the flimsiest of tips — a conversation in a London wine bar — green-lighting it within three days. Clinton’s Russia vulnerabilities were turned into Trump’s burden, projected onto his campaign in a haze of innuendo.

Put together, the picture is damning: an IRS that dropped the ball in 2019, and an FBI and DOJ that throttled their own field offices in 2016. The whistleblowers are still pressing their case, six years later.

But the old memos are now re-surfacing, and the “deep state” may yet face a reckoning from what may prove the largest political scandal of modern times. (Read more: Zero Hedge, 8/22/2025)  (Archive)
