Ever since CIA Director John Ratcliffe issued a CIA report (styled as a "CIA Note: Tradecraft Review of the 2016 Intelligence Community Assessment on Russian Election Interference"), we've seen signs that the dam of hidden corruption regarding the Russia Collusion hoax was beginning to break. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has since issued several document disclosures related to the topic. And Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) released the Department of Justice Inspector General Appendix regarding the FBI's "Midyear Exam" investigation into Hillary Clinton's emails leading up to the 2016 election.There's a lot to review and digest.

Wake me up when someone is arrested and goes to jail. It seems as if all we hear is talk, there is no action. The DOJ and FBI are moving at a slow to glacial pace. Patel and Bongino are becoming a disappointment. Internal Government actors, the ones that are hiding/hid all of these documents need to be held to answer. Names exposed, security clearances and employments terminated. both internal and external suspects need to be indicted by a Grand Jury and held to answer.

And yet, Durham did NOTHING.....it was a "carefully gather all the evidence and hide it" exercise.

FTA: "During the first stage of the campaign, due to lack of direct evidence, it was decided to disseminate the necessary information through the FBI-affiliated…technical structures… in particular, the Crowdstrike and ThreatConnect companies, from where the information would then be disseminated through leading U.S. publications," Bernardo reportedly wrote in an email, per the appendix. "The media analysis on the DNC hacking appears solid…. Julie (Clinton Campaign Advisor) says it will be a long-term affair to demonize Putin and Trump. Now it is good for a post-convention bounce," Bernardo wrote, per the appendix. "Later the FBI will put more oil into the fire." Another email reportedly from Bernardo states: "HRC (Hillary Rodham Clinton) approved Julie’s idea about Trump and Russian hackers hampering U.S. elections." "This should distract people from her own missing email, especially if the affair goes to the Olympic level," Bernardo continues. "The point is making the Russian play a U.S. domestic issue. Say something like a critical infrastructure threat for the election to feel manic since both POTUS and VPOTUS have acknowledge the fact IC would speed up searching for evidence that is regrettably still unavailable." As you can see, a lot going on with much more to come. I understand #1's frustration but the people who perpetrated this whole scheme aren't amateurs and they kept a TON of information and documents hidden. It took a while to find it and likely only as a result of someone telling the new crew. Remember, even during the first Trump term, they were able to get the AG to recuse himself, thus, allowing their people to run the investigation. Then, you had 4 years of the Biden admin continuing the scheme and cover up of information/documents.

President Trump fired back at former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev over his dismissive response to Trump's insistence that Russia take demonstrable and verifiable steps to end its invasion and occupation of Ukraine. On Monday, RedState reported that President Trump had established a new and aggressive deadline for Russia to demonstrate its willingness to bring the war to a negotiated conclusion. (snip). "I’m going to make a new deadline, of about 10, 10 or 12 days from today," Trump said. "There’s no reason for waiting. It was 50 days.

Surrogacy is problematic for a whole host of reasons. It makes procreation and pregnancy transactional, creates morally and ethically reprehensible conundrums, hurts women and babies, has strong overlap with human trafficking, and reeks of corruption. Arguably, the most alarming consequence that comes from the increasingly popular practice of renting wombs, however, is that surrogacy can be easily exploited by pedophiles and abusers to gain proximity to children.

On Wednesday, Army Secretary Dan Driscoll ordered West Point to terminate the employment of President Biden’s recently hired censorship czar.

The terms Ukraine and government corruption are synonymous regardless of who is funding the schemes. After Volodymyr Zelenskyy grabbed more power by stripping two key anti-corruption agencies, the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office (SAP), of their independence, protests erupted. European leaders immediately noticed the intent of the power move and threatened Zelenskyy with a withdrawal of support. The current dictatorship of Zelensky and his small team then quickly reversed course. However, the damage is done, and once again Ukranian corruption is center stage.

In New Planned Parenthood Ruling, Obama

Upon assuming the bench, all new federal judges take an oath to “faithfully and impartially discharge and perform all the duties incumbent upon me … under the Constitution and laws of the United States.” So, why is Massachusetts-based District Court Judge Indira Talwani flouting that pledge? On Monday, the Obama appointee (and Democrat donor) issued a revised preliminary injunction that attempts to block provisions from a recently passed law prohibiting the federal funding of Planned Parenthood. Talwani previously handed down a similar overreaching injunction in the case last week after initially granting the pro-abortion plaintiffs’ request for a temporary restraining order earlier this month.

The New York Archdiocese Organist Training Program enrollee’s musical gifts had her booking gigs across the city. But for years, Salomé’s bashful smile and angelic voice concealed a secret — one not even known in the shadows of the confessional. She was a he; Salomé was born Miles. His story is one that’s becoming all too familiar: A child with unconventional interests, swayed by strange ideologies on the Internet, is hustled by doctors into a life of medical dependency — only to find himself questioning everything years later.

WASHINGTON — Hillary Clinton approved a plan hatched by a top campaign adviser to “smear” then-candidate Donald Trump with false claims of Russian collusion and distract from her own mounting email scandal during the 2016 campaign, according to explosive intelligence files declassified Thursday. The intelligence came from two memos obtained by the Obama administration in the lead-up to the Clinton-Trump contest and laid out “confidential conversations” between members of the Democratic National Committee and liberal billionaire George Soros’ Open Society Foundations.

Hello, this is Victor Davis Hanson for The Daily Signal. I’d like to talk about illegal immigration, but specifically about the new president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum. She’s been very vocal about U.S. policy toward Mexico. For example, she said she would offer legal counsel to her citizens that were here illegally that were picked up, she thought, unfairly or too violently by Immigration and Customs Enforcement.She also said that the United States had no business taxing remittances—that is money that Mexican nationals here, for the most part illegally, send back to Mexico. She said, “Do not come into Mexican national ground if you’re going after the cartels.”

WASHINGTON — Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has privately discussed the idea of running for political office next year in Tennessee, according to two people who have spoken directly with him about it. If Hegseth were to follow through on the discussions, it would amount to a major leadership shake-up at the department that oversees the American military and millions of federal employees. The Defense Department bars civilian employees from running for political office, meaning Hegseth would have to resign to do so. In a statement, Sean Parnell, the Pentagon’s chief spokesman, said, “Hegseth’s focus remains solely on serving under President Trump.”

President Donald J. Trump has expressed his commitment to solving this problem on behalf of future Administrations and the American people. The White House is one of the most beautiful and historic buildings in the world, yet the White House is currently unable to host major functions honoring world leaders and other countries without having to install a large and unsightly tent approximately 100 yards away from the main building entrance.

Nancy Pelosi appeared rattled and visibly annoyed during a CNN interview this week when anchor Jake Tapper confronted her with Donald Trump’s accusations of insider trading. The former House speaker had joined the program to discuss the 60th anniversary of Medicaid, but things quickly went off-script when Tapper tried to bring up Trump’s pointed remarks. Tapper began to quote Trump, saying, “Nancy Pelosi became rich—” before Pelosi abruptly cut him off. “Why—why do you have to read that?” she snapped, clearly not happy with where the discussion was going. Tapper attempted to defuse the tension, saying he just wanted

France, the United Kingdom, and Canada have now joined hands to proclaim they will recognize a "Palestinian state" in September if Israel doesn't surrender to Hamas. That comes despite calls from the United States to release the hostages as a precondition for any negotiations regarding a "two-state solution." In response, Hamas immediately pulled out of talks regarding a ceasefire, emboldened by a move that they see as assuring their survival as the governing authority in Gaza. In other words, Macron just doomed what hostages remain alive

International law — particularly Article 1 of the 1933 Montevideo Convention — defines the criteria for statehood: a permanent population, a defined territory, an effective government, and the capacity to engage in relations with other states. Yet neither of the two Palestinian political entities meets these criteria. By choosing to recognize a "Palestinian state" that clearly fails to meet these established criteria, France departs from any international law. Macron's declaration is not a matter of legal recognition, but a political gesture — ideological and electoral — masquerading as diplomacy.

Denver is in financial trouble. They ran a $50 million deficit this year, which is projected to balloon to $200 million next year. Denver’s expenses are systematically exceeding its revenues. Real-world entities would address this problem with a combination of (1) increasing their revenues and (2) decreasing their expenses. But Denver is not a real-world entity. It’s a government entity. It plans to do what governments do in government-world: It plans to borrow money. A lot of it. They’re putting on the ballot a bond proposal amounting to almost a billion dollars. By the time the bonds are paid off with interest years down the road, it would amount to nearly two billion.

Brom was 16 years old when he killed his mother Paulette, his father Bernard, his younger sister Diane and younger brother Richard at their home in Rochester, Minnesota.
