Declassified Doc: FBI, DOJ Declined To Charge Russia Collusion-Hoaxer Who Allegedly Lied To Congress

A newly declassified analysis reveals that the FBI and Department of Justice (DOJ) were aware of allegations that Russia-collusion hoaxer Nellie Ohr lied to Congress regarding her role in the infamous Crossfire Hurricane investigation but chose not to pursue charges.

According to the declassified 2019 analysis by the FBI, Ohr — who was working for Fusion GPS– allegedly lied to Congress on multiple occasions regarding her work attempting to link then-candidate Donald Trump and Russia. Fusion GPS was the opposition firm hired by Hillary Clinton’s campaign to dig up non-existent dirt on Trump. Fusion GPS hired ex-British spy Christopher Steele and eventually compiled what became known as the Steele Dossier. The dossier became the basis for the Russia collusion hoax.

Ohr’s husband, Bruce, was an Associate Deputy Attorney General at the DOJ at the time of Ohr’s employment with Fusion GPS.

Ohr and her husband testified before the House Committee on the Judiciary and the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform in 2018 as part of the committee’s investigation into the Russia collusion hoax.

Then-Rep. Mark Meadows of North Carolina filed a criminal referral with the DOJ alleging that Ohr knowingly lied to Congress during her testimony. (Read more from ” Declassified Doc: FBI, DOJ Declined To Charge Russia Collusion-Hoaxer Who Allegedly Lied To Congress” HERE)

Elon Musk Formally Departs From DOGE Following a Tumultuous Tenure

Elon Musk is officially stepping down from President Donald Trump’s administration after 128 days of heading the Department of Government Efficiency.

Although his tenure was brief, Musk had his fair share of controversy and criticism from legacy media, even bucking the administration at times. Despite the dramatic saga, Musk was celebrated and commended by the administration and its allies after he announced his departure.

“As my scheduled time as a Special Government Employee comes to an end, I would like to thank President Donald Trump for the opportunity to reduce wasteful spending,” Musk announced Wednesday night. “The DOGE mission will only strengthen over time as it becomes a way of life throughout the government.” . . .

Whether it’s outrage over the United States Agency for International Development or the scandal surrounding the teenage engineer formally known as “Big Balls” and all the subsequent trolling, the DOGE has been a constant fan for the flames of controversy. Most recently, Musk defied the administration and expressed disapproval over Trump’s “big, beautiful bill,” which barely passed the House last week.

Nevertheless, administration officials and MAGA allies praised Musk and his mission at the DOGE. (Read more from “Elon Musk Formally Departs From DOGE Following a Tumultuous Tenure” HERE)

3 City-Killing Asteroids Could Strike Earth Within Weeks — Generating a Million Times More Energy Than Hiroshima Atomic Bomb

. . .Venus is concealing at least three city-killer asteroids that could strike Earth in weeks without warning, potentially wreaking havoc upon our planet before we can react.

“Twenty co-orbital asteroids [space rocks in the orbit of two celestial bodies] of Venus are currently known,” the authors warned in the arockcalyptic study, which was published in the journal “Astronomy & Astrophysics.”

The international research team, led by Valerio Carruba of São Paulo University in Brazil, wrote that at least three of the asteroids — 2020 SB, 524522 and 2020 CL1 — that circle the sun in tandem with our twin planet have unstable orbits that take them dangerously close to Earth, the Daily Mail reported.

If this shaky trajectory is shifted only slightly by a small gravitational change or other force, the asteroids could be set on a collision course with our planet, per the study.

“Co-orbital status protects these asteroids from close approaches to Venus, but it does not protect them from encountering Earth,” the researchers warned, according to the Daily Galaxy.

FBI Tells Employees No ‘Pride’ Activities on Company Time

Pride month celebrations at the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) will not be permitted this June, leadership told agents and directors Thursday.

“I’ve received several questions about the FBI’s stance on Pride Month and what related activities FBI divisions and employees should or should not participate in,” FBI Assistant Director for Public Affairs Ben Williamson said in an email to assistant directors in charge and special agents in charge on Thursday morning. “So, I want to take the opportunity to make FBI leadership’s expectations clear: There should be no official FBI actions, events, or messaging regarding Pride Month.”

The email told employees that while they are not to engage in any celebration in the office, they are “free to do as you like” in their “personal capacity” or “on your own time,” according to a Fox News report.

“But on FBI time, using FBI resources and your Bureau affiliation, you and your divisions are expected to take no official actions or issue any specific messaging,” Williamson said.

The announcement is a shift from the FBI’s stance on Pride Month under the Biden administration, which openly promoted Pride Month, including decorating the White House with rainbow pillars and hosting Pride celebrations on the South Lawn.

REPORT: School Investigates After Teenager Records Teacher Comparing Trump To Hitler, Sends Video To News Station

An Arizona high school student alleged that a teacher compared President Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler during a history lesson, prompting the school district to investigate the matter, KVOA News 4 Tucson reported Tuesday.

The student, who attends Cholla High School in Tucson, recorded parts of the lecture on World War II in which the teacher allegedly said, “your generation with the lowest information level is the biggest supporter of Donald Trump, he has that in common with Hitler too,” the outlet reported.

The student’s father, presuming that the school authorities would ignore his report if he made one, sent the video recording to investigative reporters at the news outlet.

The student alleged that the teacher had a penchant for infusing her lessons with personal opinions.

“She’s trying to put her beliefs onto us,” he told the outlet, “telling me that me and my generation are Nazis for voting [for] or for being the biggest Trump supporters.” (Read more from “REPORT: School Investigates After Teenager Records Teacher Comparing Trump To Hitler, Sends Video To News Station” HERE)

‘Pure Evil’ Transgender ‘Woman’ Who Fatally Stabbed Postal Worker Inside NYC Deli Sentenced to 15 Years

The knife-wielding transgender [man] who viciously stabbed a postal worker to death in a Harlem deli earlier this year was sentenced Thursday to 15 years behind bars.

Jaia Cruz, 24 — who ruthlessly killed USPS worker Ray Hodges after an argument in January — was given the sentence after striking a plea deal, infuriating relatives of Hodges at the Manhattan court hearing who wanted more time.

“This is pure evil. This is a disgusting excuse for a human being and you allowed a second chance,” the mother of Hodges’ children, whose name wasn’t immediately clear, told Judge Gregory Carro.

“When people like this are allowed plea bargains, you get broken families, you get us. I’m not happy with fifteen years,” she raged. “To all these postal workers, be careful when you are out there working your route.”

In April, Cruz pleaded guilty to first-degree manslaughter in the Jan. 2 slaying of Hodges, a 36-year-old father of two, at Joe’s Deli Grocery. (Read more from “‘Pure Evil’ Transgender ‘Woman’ Who Fatally Stabbed Postal Worker Inside NYC Deli Sentenced to 15 Years” HERE)

‘Trump Just Did the Impossible’: Rasmussen Finds That for First Time in Its Polling History, a Majority Reckons Country ‘Is on the Right Track’

By New York The Sun. Recent polls are music to President Trump’s ears, but Democrats are deaf to the melody. They’re wedded to the fallacy that Americans see the president as they do and will dance to their tune in next year’s midterm elections.

Ever since 2015, foes have denied that Mr. Trump has any appeal beyond what President Theodore Roosevelt dubbed “the lunatic fringe.” This is the “false consensus effect,” the belief that everyone shares your viewpoint. It’s manifesting in Democrats assuming that almost all Americans disapprove of Mr. Trump.

The numbers tell a different story. “Trump just did the impossible,” the Rasmussen Reports pollster, Mark Mitchell, wrote Tuesday on X. “For the first time in our polling history, a majority says the country is on the right track.”

In September, Rasmussen found the right-track number at just 34 percent. Mr. Mitchell noted that President Biden’s “approval was never higher than Trump’s is now,” at 42 percent. President Obama was also lower throughout his second term.

Since Democrats don’t think they need to persuade Mr. Trump’s voters, he’s free to play offense. He raids constituents like union members, minorities, and blue-state residents, pickpocketing Democrats who act as if they have voters to spare.

New Rasmussen Data Shows 48% of Americans Optimistic About US Direction Amid ‘Uncharted Territory’ Status

By Just The News. A Rasmussen Reports poll on Monday found the pollster in “uncharted territory,” after nearly half of respondents believed that the United States was heading down the right track, and a rolling average overnight showed 50% of respondents said the same. . .

The numbers mark the highest rating for the country since Rasmussen Reports began conducting its “right track, wrong track” surveys nearly 20 years ago, according to the Daily Signal.

A rolling average of the past four nights also found that 50% of respondents believed the country is heading in the right direction, the pollster posted on X.

The numbers are a boost from the Biden administration, where only 32% of respondents believed the country was heading in the right direction last year, and 63% said it was heading in the wrong direction.

Rape and Human Trafficking Charges Filed Against Andrew Tate and His Brother in the U.K.: ‘Actual Bodily Harm’ Claims

Controversial internet personality Andrew Tate and his younger brother Tristan Tate are facing a total of 21 criminal charges, including rape and human trafficking, in the U.K., prosecutors announced Wednesday, May 28.

The Crown Prosecution Service said Andrew, 38, is charged with rape, human trafficking, actual bodily harm and controlling prostitution for gain related to allegations from three women, according to BBC, The Telegraph, and ABC News.

Meanwhile, Tristan, 36, faces charges related to one alleged female victim, including rape, human trafficking and actual bodily harm.

It’s unclear if the brothers have entered pleas or retained attorneys to speak on their behalf.

In a statement shared with The Telegraph, the CPS said, “These charging decisions followed receipt of a file of evidence from Bedfordshire Police. A European Arrest Warrant was issued in England in 2024, and as a result the Romanian courts ordered the extradition to the UK of Andrew and Tristan Tate. However, the domestic criminal matters in Romania must be settled first.” (Read more from “Rape and Human Trafficking Charges Filed Against Andrew Tate and His Brother in the U.K.: ‘Actual Bodily Harm’ Claims” HERE)

Vladimir Putin Issues His Conditions for Ending the War in Ukraine

Russian President Vladimir Putin has put out a list of demands for ending the war in Ukraine — and they’re almost entirely unchanged from even before he launched his brutal invasion more than three years ago.

The authoritarian wants a written letter by Western leaders that they would not allow Ukraine to join NATO — a red line for the security alliance whose charter holds that any country can join if they are approved unanimously by its member states, three Russian sources told Reuters on Wednesday.

Putin further wants NATO to disavow more expansion to the east, also barring Georgia and Moldova from joining the alliance.

He also wants the West to lift sanctions on his country, whose economy has taken a harsh hit since the world protested his invasion of its sovereign neighbor.

Two other conditions — the unfreezing of Russian assets and “protection” for Ukraine’s Russian speakers — are also key desires, according to Reuters. (Read more from “Vladimir Putin Issues His Conditions for Ending the War in Ukraine” HERE)
