Mark Levin Unloads on Trump Raid: ‘No Justification for Sending 30 Freaking FBI Agents’

/0 Comments/in , /by

BlazeTV host Mark Levin unloaded on the FBI Monday night, calling the raid on Donald Trump’s home in Palm Beach, Florida, “outrageous” and the “worst attack on this republic in modern history.”

Levin, a former chief of staff to U.S. Attorney General Edwin Meese, called in to “Hannity” on Fox News Monday to give his reaction to the then-breaking news that FBI agents executed a search warrant at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence. Federal agents were reportedly searching for evidence that Trump violated federal records-keeping law by allegedly taking classified documents from the White House with him to Mar-a-Lago when he left office.

“First of all, I’m a former chief of staff to a United States attorney general. We would never ever have done this. Ever,” Levin told Sean Hannity. “Number two, it’s 90 days before midterm election. That’s outrageous.” . . .

Levin said the accusations in Haberman’s book and other reports of Trump’s alleged misconduct served as a “pretext” for the raid on Mar-a-Lago.

“There is no justification for sending 30 freaking FBI agents to the former president’s compound in Mar-a-Lago in early morning and conducting themselves this way or in any other cases in which they’ve done exactly the same thing,” Levin said.

OUTRAGE: Unprecedented, Destructive FBI Raid on Former President’s Home; Are We Living in a Banana Republic?

Trump Says FBI Conducted Search at His Mar-A-Lago Estate

By AP News. The FBI searched former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate as part of an investigation into whether he took classified records from the White House to his Florida residence, people familiar with the matter said Monday. Trump disclosed the action in a lengthy statement, asserting that agents had broken into his safe in a search he decried as evidence of “dark times for our nation.”

The search, which the FBI and Justice Department did not immediately confirm, marks a dramatic escalation in law enforcement scrutiny of Trump and comes amid a separate but intensifying probe into efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.

Trump and his allies immediately sought to cast the search as part of a Democratic-driven effort to keep him from winning another term in 2024, even though the Biden White House said it had no prior knowledge of it and the current FBI director, Christopher Wray, was appointed by Trump five years ago and served as a high-ranking official in a Republican-led Justice Department.

GOP Slams ‘Weaponization’ of DOJ After Trump’s Mar-A-Lago Raided by FBI; Dems Call It ‘Accountability’

By Fox News. After former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home in Florida was raided by FBI agents, Republicans are slamming the Biden administration and accusing the Department of Justice of “political weaponization,” while Democrats are lauding the agency for holding Trump accountable for “wrongdoing.”

“The raid of MAL is another escalation in the weaponization of federal agencies against the Regime’s political opponents, while people like Hunter Biden get treated with kid gloves,” said Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. “Now the Regime is getting another 87k IRS agents to wield against its adversaries? Banana Republic.”

Multiple sources tell Fox News the FBI’s raid of Mar-a-Lago is related to the materials Trump allegedly brought to his private residence after his presidency concluded. That matter was referred to the Justice Department by the National Archives and Records Administration, which said it found classified material in 15 boxes at the residence.

House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy issued a warning to Attorney General Merrick Garland that extensive oversight by Republicans in Congress will be heading his way. (Read more from “GOP Slams ‘Weaponization’ of DOJ After Trump’s Mar-A-Lago Raided by FBI; Dems Call It ‘Accountability’” HERE)

Shock Raid of Former President’s Home; Trump: ’Democrats Who Desperately Don’t Want Me to Run for President in 2024’

By Breitbart. Former President Donald Trump’s Florida home, Mar-A-Lago, was raided by FBI agents, Trump announced in a statement on Monday.

“These are dark times for our Nation, as my beautiful home, Mar- A-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, is currently under siege, raided, and occupied by a large group of FBI agents,” Trump said. “Nothing like this has ever happened to a President of the United States before.”

Trump noted his previous cooperation with law enforcement and called the FBI raid of his home “prosecutorial misconduct.” Trump also said it is an example of “the weaponization of the Justice System who desperately don’t want me to run for President in 2024.”

Trump continued:

After working and cooperating with the relevant Government agencies, this unannounced raid on my home was not necessary or appropriate. It is prosecutorial misconduct, the weaponization of the Justice System, and an attack by Radical Left Democrats who desperately don’t want me to run for President in 2024, especially based on recent polls, and who will likewise do anything to stop Republicans and Conservatives in the upcoming Midterm Elections. Such an assault could only take place in broken, Third-World Countries, Sadly, America has now become one of those Countries, corrupt at a level not seen before. They even broke into my safe! What is the difference between this and Watergate, where operatives broke into the Democrat National Committee? Here, in reverse, Democrats broke into the home of the 45th President of the United States.

Pentagon Sends Biggest Arms Package Yet to Ukraine

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Biden administration on Monday pledged $1 billion worth of additional military equipment to Ukraine, the largest single drawdown of firepower from U.S. stocks since the start of Russia’s invasion almost six months ago. The security assistance package includes more warheads for the High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) and almost 100,000 rounds of artillery and mortar ammunition that Ukrainians say have helped turn the tide of battle in fierce fighting in the south and east.

The latest drawdown is the 18th since Russia invaded its neighbor on Feb. 24, Pentagon officials said Monday.

“This package provides a significant amount of additional ammunition, weapons and equipment — the types of which the Ukrainian people are using so effectively to defend their country,” Colin H. Kahl, undersecretary of defense for policy, told reporters. “These are all critical capabilities to help the Ukrainians repel the Russian offensive in the east and also to address evolving developments in the south and elsewhere.”

The latest round brings the total U.S. security assistance to Ukraine to $9.8 billion since the start of the Biden administration, officials said. Officials in Kyiv say even more firepower is needed to hold off the bigger and better-armed Russian forces.

“We will continue to support the Ukrainian people as they defend their country from Russian aggression for as long as it takes,” Secretary of State Antony Blinken said. “As this war stretches on, the courage and strength of Ukraine’s military and its people become even more evident and even more extraordinary.” (Read more from “Pentagon Sends Biggest Arms Package Yet to Ukraine” HERE)

Biden Says ‘Inflation’ Bill Funds Healthcare, ‘God Knows What Else’ in Bizarre Speech

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Biden seemed unfamiliar Monday with the specifics of the massive spending bill dubbed the Inflation Reduction Act that Senate Democrats passed Sunday, saying it funds healthcare “and God knows what else.”

Moments earlier, Biden misstated the size of last year’s $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure law while touring flood damage in the Kentucky hamlet of Lost Creek.

“We’ve never done this before, but because of a number of things we got done on a bipartisan basis — like a billion, 200 million-dollar infrastructure project — like what we’re doing today, we passed yesterday, helping take care of everything from health care to God knows what else,” Biden said.

“What we’re going to do is — we’re going to see, for example, they got to put a new water line in in the community,” the president went on, speaking without a prepared script.

“There’s no reason why they can’t at the same time be digging a line that puts in a whole new modern line for Internet connections. Why? Why can’t we do that? So it’s going to be different. We’re going to come back better than before.” (Read more from “Biden Says ‘Inflation’ Bill Funds Healthcare, ‘God Knows What Else’ in Bizarre Speech” HERE)

Report Shows Biden Admin Run by Former Registered Foreign Agents

/0 Comments/in , /by

More than a dozen high-ranking members of the Biden administration previously worked as registered foreign agents, according to a new report obtained exclusively by The Federalist. The report was published by the Biden administration watchdog “Inside Biden’s Basement,” itself a project of the nonprofit Transparency Action Fund.

Titled, “Foreign Agents Lurking Inside Biden’s Basement,” the group’s new report outlines the networks of at least 13 officials under President Joe Biden who were once paid to represent foreign interests and registered under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA). Their prior clients range from Iran and Kazakhstan to Canada and Mexico.

FARA records show White House Deputy Counsel Jonathan Su’s law firm paid out $30,000 a month to Mercury Public Affairs on behalf of the government of Kazakhstan in 2018. Biden Special Assistant Erin Pelton was employed with Mercury in the same year and worked on behalf of both Kazakhstan and Qatar, according to public government documents.

In 2006, Biden’s U.S. Ambassador to Poland Mark Brzezinski’s public affairs firm, McGuireWoods Consulting, was paid nearly $140,000 over a six-month period by the Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office (TECRO).

Did Nancy Pelosi Travel to Taiwan to Increase Her Family Fortune? Was Her Son Paul With Her?

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The two photographs below originated from a source in Taiwan. The circled man in the photo on the left is the same man labeled as Paul Pelosi Jr., Nancy Pelosi’s son, in the photograph on the right. That man is clearly part of Nancy Pelosi’s inner entourage, but, strangely, he does not appear in any other photographs circulating on the internet.

The photographs of the man labeled as Paul Pelosi, Jr. above have a similar tie worn by Paul Pelosi, Jr., as shown in the 2017 photograph taken in Ukraine below.

Additional pictures were uncovered of Pelosi’s travels in Asia, and one picture reportedly from Singapore looks like that is her son traveling with her.

Here’s another photo in Malaysia:

If Paul Pelosi Jr. did accompany his mother on her August 2-3, 2022 trip to Taiwan, is he playing the same role for Nancy Pelosi as Hunter Biden played for Joe Biden, enriching the family through influence peddling?

Like Hunter Biden, Paul Pelosi Jr. has been linked to many shady business dealings but has never been prosecuted.

Speaker Pelosi’s Son Is Involved in Five Companies Probed by Federal Agencies but Somehow, He Walks Free

Paul Pelosi also was involved in Ukraine (and therefore so was his mother).

In addition, an enormous amount of money has flowed from Taiwanese government agencies to Democrat Dick Gephardt’s lobbying firm to specifically influence Nancy Pelosi.

So, the question is, what was the true purpose of Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan that has risked war with China?

My guess is that it is about computer chips and the family fortune, not diplomacy.

Liz Cheney’s Husband Is Partner at Law Firm Representing Hunter Biden

/0 Comments/in , /by

Philip Perry, who is married to Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, is a partner at the same law firm representing President Joe Biden’s scandal-ridden son, Hunter.

Last week, the Daily Mail reached out to Hunter Biden’s attorney for comment on a story unearthing new details to the extent the younger Biden leveraged the family name for lucrative overseas business ventures. In 2014, the paper reported, then-Vice President Biden met with a pair of Chinese energy executives connected to Hunter Biden’s foreign business deals.

An attorney named Christopher Clark, who is listed with the firm Latham & Watkins as partner, responded to the Daily Mail’s request for comment calling the reporter a “parasite” in an otherwise nonsensical email full of typos.

The vice president’s 2014 encounter with Chinese energy tycoons marks the fifteenth such meeting with businessmen tied to Hunter Biden’s financial interests, and contradicts Biden’s repeated claims of never discussing business with his son, “or with anyone else.” The first son is currently under federal investigation for money laundering and foreign lobbying.

Perry is also listed as a partner with Lathan & Watkins on the firm’s website while his wife runs for re-election on an anti-Trump platform ahead of the Wyoming primary next week.

Trump Roots Out ‘Deep State’: People ‘You Would Least Suspect’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

There is a “deep state” of government bureaucrats who regularly disrupt the commander in chief’s plans, former President Donald Trump said in a recent interview.

In talking with popular conservative commentator Dan Bongino, Trump opened up about how officials within his own administration created roadblocks for his agenda and put blame on recommendations he received from “RINOS,” or Republicans in Name Only, a pejorative often used to criticize fellow members of the GOP.

“Look, there is a deep state,” Trump said. “There is a group of people that are not doing a very good job for the country.”

The conversation was framed around a report by Axios journalist Jonathan Swan saying how Trump’s allies want to “radically reshape” the federal government if Trump is elected to another term as president. This includes trimming parts of the Justice Department, the State Department, and the Pentagon, sources told the news outlet.

Trump called it a lengthy and “strange story,” distancing himself from it while also noting that many of the ideas outlined in the report were “not bad.” (Read more from “Trump Roots Out ‘Deep State’: People ‘You Would Least Suspect'” HERE)

Ex-White House Official Compares FBI to KGB After Raid, Vows Revenge

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former Trump official Michael Caputo slammed the Biden administration following the FBI’s Monday raid on former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home in Palm Beach, Florida.

In an exclusive statement to Fox News Digital, Caputo compared the FBI to the Soviet-era KGB in Russia, declared the nation was in a “full-blown constitutional crisis,” and predicted the raid would lead to President Biden facing an indictment following a loss in the 2024 presidential election.

“America is in a full-blown constitutional crisis. The American people have endured a slow, creeping attack on our nation. I had a front row seat in the Russia hoax, and I’ve watched it get steadily and methodically worse ever since,” Caputo said.

“With this militant raid on President Trump’s home, we have become Russia. The FBI is the KGB. I should know. I’ve seen them both in action and I see no difference at all,” he said. (Read more from “Ex-White House Official Compares FBI to KGB After Raid, Vows Revenge” HERE)

‘Weaponizing’ the System: Trump Family Reacts to Raid

/0 Comments/in , /by

Family members of former President Donald Trump took to social media and the airwaves to respond to the news of Trump’s home in Mar-a-Lago being “raided” by the FBI, accusing the bureau of being politically motivated.

Lara Trump, wife of Donald Trump’s son Eric Trump, and Donald Trump Jr. took aim at the Department of Justice, which is the parent agency of the FBI, classifying the raid as “weaponizing the justice system” fueled by the Biden administration.

“They are terrified. He’s going to announce any day that he’s running for president in 2024,” Lara Trump told Fox News. “This is a very convenient way to just throw a little more mud on Donald Trump as though they haven’t already done enough.”

Donald Trump Jr., the eldest child of the former president, reacted on Twitter, writing: “Biden’s out of control DOJ is ripping this country apart with how they’re openly targeting their political enemies. This is what you see happen in 3rd World Banana Republics!!!” (Read more from “‘Weaponizing’ the System: Trump Family Reacts to Raid” HERE)
