Revealed: J6 Prosecutors’ Dirty Secrets

/4 Comments/in , , /by

President Donald Trump delivered on his promise, granting clemency to hundreds of January 6 prisoners and defendants via an executive order on Day One of his new administration, offering survivors of Biden’s weaponized Justice Department a second chance.

But for Proud Boys leaders – Marine Corps veteran Zachary Rehl, decorated Army veteran Joseph Biggs and Marine Corps veteran Dominic Pezzola – the fight for justice continues.

With their sentences commuted to time served, but not being fully pardoned like all the others, these men remain branded insurrectionists and even terrorists, saddled with nearly a dozen felony convictions each.

In bombshell court filings awaiting U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly’s ruling, the trio alleges federal prosecutors and the FBI broke laws to frame them with “seditious conspiracy” during their six-month trial.

Their attorney, Roger Roots, claims the Biden-led government knew the Proud Boys had no plan to “overthrow the U.S.” on Jan. 6, 2021, yet it orchestrated an informant-driven entrapment operation to “impose a one-party, slave-plantation-style government wherein political dissidents would be jailed, tormented and silenced” with wrongful convictions for merely trespassing while walking through the U.S. Capitol building.

Karen Bass’ Destroyed Text Messages Have Miraculously Reappeared

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass is still reeling from the massive wildfires that engulfed the county in January. It’s likely going to be labeled the costliest natural disaster in American history, with damage estimates ranging from $164-250-plus billion. Ms. Bass was not in Los Angeles when the fires broke out on January 7. She wasn’t even in the United States. The mayor was partying in Ghana, celebrating the president’s inauguration, which hardly seems appropriate, especially since this trip was taxpayer-funded. Bass promised she’d never leave the country during her time in the mayor’s office.

She claims to have been in contact with those on the ground as she traveled back to Los Angeles, but a record of that was initially missing. Text messages were reported to have been deleted, with aides saying Bass’ phone was not set to save text messages. That narrative—that she was hands-on with those on the ground—seemed to have imploded. It also sparked further controversy about whether the mayor violated public records laws. . .

Well, those destroyed communications have risen like a phoenix rising from the ashes (via NBC LA):

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass exchanged text messages during the early hours of the Palisades Fire that showed she struggled to communicate with her staff as she returned from a trip to Ghana.

The messages, released by the Mayor’s office in response to a California Public Records Act request, help to illustrate how she managed the city’s fire response remotely, while she was on board several flights after attending the inauguration of Ghana’s new president as part of a U.S. delegation.

On Jan. 7 at 11:20 p.m., the mayor texted her team after failing to connect on a conference call with the general managers of city departments. The Palisades Fire had started hours earlier at around 10:30 a.m. and was fanned by strong Santa Ana wind gusts to eventually become the third most destructive wildfire on record in California

“I’m listening. Don’t know why you can’t hear me,” Bass messaged.

In response, one of her staffers said they could not hear her on their end.

How Kamala Responded When Her Team Told Her There Was No Way She Could Beat Trump

/2 Comments/in , , /by

We know how Vice President Kamala Harris reportedly reacted when she was told that she wouldn’t be the next president of the United States. It’s part of a new book written by Vanity Fair’s Chris Whipple in Uncharted, which details the former vice president’s ascendency to the top of the ticket via an internal coup to her brutal crash on Election Day, where voters told her and the Democrats, they weren’t interested in them continuing this insane agenda that had destroyed the country.

Excerpts were published, and it’s a little interesting how this campaign came together on the kitchen table at Naval One Observatory. Harris had top talent from the Obama operation. Still, not even they, with their exceptional political acumen, could save this woman who was flat-out unqualified and unprepared to be president. Everything seemed to be a struggle for her; Harris was ahead of her skis, but the deed was done. The open primary option that Barack Obama had hoped for quickly died, as Joe Biden endorsed Harris shortly after he stepped down from the 2024 ticket. Was it revenge for the ouster? Who knows, but every call Harris made to the top Democrats didn’t make opposition overtures; she wouldn’t face a primary challenge. The Democrats wanted to avoid a coronation but chose one anyway.

It ended up being a $2 billion-plus boondoggle. What kills me is this feeling of elation on election night. Was drug use rampant, or was this crew so deep in the bubble that reason got squeezed out of this atmosphere? I think it’s the latter. There also appears to be a defined split between the on-air talent and the pollsters, the latter of which thought the former was insane for saying they were winning the race. Reality slammed into Harris when campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon told her that she was going to lose the blue wall states (via Vanity Fair):

Though Harris was behind in the battleground states, her spokespeople were oddly upbeat. Appearing on MSNBC back on October 27, campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon had declared, “We are very confident we’re going to win this thing.” On Friday, November 1, senior adviser David Plouffe posted on X that late-breaking undecided voters were going for Harris by more than 10 points.

A campaign has a gravitational pull, and chief of staff [Lorraine] Voles was feeling it. “You get sucked into the momentum,” she said. “Like you believe it. I’ve been on winning ones and losing ones, and this felt more like [Bill] Clinton’s [in 1992] than [Michael] Dukakis’s [in 1988].” Voles wasn’t talking poll numbers or analytics, but intangibles. “The rallies were so big and so enthusiastic. People were lining the streets.” But Harris’s pollsters didn’t share the kumbaya cohesion. One ex-Biden campaign official couldn’t understand all the heady talk. “They still had consistent polling results that showed her down by two in every state,” she said, “and Trump always overperforms. How the hell were they going to make that up?”

Trump Cuts off CNN’s Kaitlan Collins Before She Can Ask Question During Press Briefing: ‘Excuse Me, I Didn’t Pick You’

/6 Comments/in , , /by

By New York Post. President Donald Trump abruptly shut down CNN’s Kaitlan Collins during a press briefing on Tuesday when she tried to raise questions about the controversial “Signal” messaging incident involving top administration officials.

During a meeting with ambassadors at the White House, the frequent Trump nemesis attempted to pepper the president with a question.

“Mr. President, you said that your national security learned a lesson after a reporter …,” Collins began.

Before she could complete her sentence, Trump interrupted, saying sharply: “Excuse me, I didn’t pick you.”

He then pointed to another reporter in the gallery and said, “Go ahead.”

The Signal controversy emerged after The Atlantic revealed that Jeffrey Goldberg, its editor-in-chief, was mistakenly added to a secret group chat where high-ranking Trump administration members discussed an upcoming military strike against Yemen’s Houthi rebels.

National security adviser takes ‘full responsibility’ for ‘embarrassing’ Signal leak — but still rips ‘vile’ Atlantic editor

By New York Post. National security adviser Mike Waltz accepted “full responsibility” Tuesday for accidentally including Atlantic magazine’s editor-in-chief in a Signal chat group where discussions about military strikes against the Houthis in Yemen took place.

“Well, look, a staffer wasn’t responsible,” Waltz told Fox News’ Laura Ingraham in his first media interview since the Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg revealed that he was privy to the Trump administration’s internal deliberations and planning of March 15 airstrikes after being added to text chain on the encrypted Signal app by the national security adviser.

“Look, I take full responsibility,” Waltz added. “I built the group. My job is to make sure everything’s coordinated.”

When pressed by “The Ingraham Angle” host on why Goldberg’s number was on his phone to begin with, the White House official claimed he didn’t know. (Read more from “National security adviser takes ‘full responsibility’ for ‘embarrassing’ Signal leak — but still rips ‘vile’ Atlantic editor” HERE)

Woman Learns Hard Lesson After Attacking Man Wearing MAGA Hat

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Bystander video of a woman launching into a MAGA hat wearer, literally, in the New York City subway has gone viral.

The unidentified woman is caught on camera calling the man wearing a red “Make America Great Again” hat a “racist.”

“If you f—-ing voted for Trump, you’re a racist!” she shouts in the video while pointing at the passenger wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat. “He’s a racist!” she added.

“How can I be racist?” asked the man in response, turning to his friend in the subway car. . .

Once the train reaches its stop, the man runs out of the subway car as the woman gives chase, seeking to remove his MAGA hat. But in her attempt to snatch the hat off his head with one big leap, the woman falls flat on her face as the man runs away.

Trump Reveals NSC Staffer Added the Atlantic Editor to Group Chat on Houthi Strikes

/0 Comments/in , , /by

President Donald Trump revealed Tuesday that a National Security Council staffer and aide to National Security Adviser Mike Waltz added the Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg to a Signal group chat on military strikes against the Houthis.

Trump told NBC News during a phone interview, “It was one of Michael’s people on the phone. A staffer had his number on there.”

The president did not reveal the name of the staffer.

He also defended Waltz for using Signal to coordinate on the strikes, saying, “Michael Waltz has learned a lesson, and he’s a good man.”

He also said Goldberg’s presence in the chat had “no impact at all” on the strikes, and expressed confidence in his national security team — most of whom were in the group chat. (Read more from “Trump Reveals NSC Staffer Added the Atlantic Editor to Group Chat on Houthi Strikes” HERE)

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth Responds to Atlantic Report: ‘Nobody Was Texting War Plans’

/6 Comments/in , , /by

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Monday addressed a report by The Atlantic that claimed he had shared sensitive details about U.S. military strikes in Yemen on an encrypted messaging app to a group chat with other cabinet members where a reporter was accidentally added.

“Nobody was texting war plans and that’s all I have to say about that,” Hegseth said to a journalist after his plane touched down in Hawaii on an official trip.

The Atlantic Editor-in-Chief Jeffrey Goldberg reported Monday that he was added to the group chat on March 13, two days after National Security Adviser Mike Waltz requested to add him as a contact on the Signal app.

The group chat was for the purpose of coordinating between the heads of different government agencies in regards to President Donald Trump’s decision to strike Houthi rebels in Yemen who had been targeting U.S. ships in the Red Sea since October 7, 2023.

Goldberg claimed that the morning of the strikes, on March 15, Hegseth had “texted [him] the war plan at 11:44 a.m. The plan included precise information about weapons packages, targets, and timing.” (Read more from “Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth Responds to Atlantic Report: ‘Nobody Was Texting War Plans’” HERE)

Watch Tucker Carlson: Pilots Are Afraid to Leave Cockpit for Fear of What Their DEI Co-Pilots Will Do Unattended

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Sherry Walker, a seasoned commercial airline pilot with nearly 35 years of experience, is speaking out about the concerning effects that Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies have had on safety standards within the aviation industry. According to Walker, the focus on DEI has led to a disturbing erosion of critical safety measures, to the point where pilots now fear for their safety while in the cockpit.

Walker, who has spent most of her life navigating commercial flights and mentoring new pilots, argues that the push for diversity initiatives has undermined rigorous pilot training and competency standards. She claims that pilots, including herself, are sometimes afraid to leave the cockpit during flight for fear of what might happen when the co-pilot is left in charge.

“The pressure to meet DEI quotas has reached a point where the qualifications and skills of pilots can no longer be the only consideration,” Walker said. “I’ve worked alongside many amazing pilots of all backgrounds, but the shift towards inclusivity over competency has compromised the integrity of our profession.”

Trump Demands ‘Full-Throated Apology’ From Maine Gov on Trans Sports Flap

/0 Comments/in , , /by

President Trump on Saturday demanded a “full-throated” apology from Maine Gov. Janet Mills (D) before his administration can settle its dispute with the state for defying his executive order banning transgender athletes from competing in women’s sports.

The University of Maine System (UMS) backed down earlier this week and promised to follow the executive order on transgender competition, but Trump suggested the dispute over federal funding won’t be resolved until Mills’ mea culpa.

“While the State of Maine has apologized for their Governor’s strong, but totally incorrect, statement about men playing in women’s sports while at the White House House Governor’s Conference, we have not heard from the Governor herself, and she is the one that matters,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“We need a full throated apology from the Governor herself, and a statement that she will never make such an unlawful challenge to the Federal Government again, before this case can be settled.”

On Feb. 5, Trump signed an executive order that effectively banned transgender athletes from competing in women’s sports or else get cut off from federal funds. But top athletic associations in The Pine Tree State quickly resisted Trump’s order. (Read more from “Trump Demands ‘Full-Throated Apology’ From Maine Gov on Trans Sports Flap” HERE)

Wife of Activist Trump Wants to Deport Just Tried to Blow Up the Whole Case Against Him

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Mahmoud Khalil, the Columbia University anti-Israel activist whom the Trump administration has targeted for deportation, has become a darling of the left, as people who hate America so often do. The New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU) claimed Friday that Khalil’s arrest “has created a speech-chilling atmosphere of fear,” and charges that “the Trump administration’s actions represent a dangerous escalation of the president’s attempts to choke off the free speech rights of people on American soil.” And on Sunday, Khalil’s wife attempted to blow up the entire case against him, asserting that it was “ridiculous” and “disgusting” to say that Khalil supports Hamas.

This is all-important, because if Khalil is found to be a Hamas supporter, the case against him would be nearly open-and-shut. U.S. Code § 1182 states that “any alien” who is “a representative” of “a political, social, or other group that endorses or espouses terrorist activity” is “inadmissible.” U.S. Code § 1227 adds that such an alien “is deportable.” The Associated Press described Khalil two weeks ago as one of the “student leaders of Columbia University Apartheid Divest” (CUAD). The Washington Post reported last Tuesday that “No one disputes that Khalil was the face of Columbia University Apartheid Divest.”

Khalil was CUAD’s chief negotiator with Columbia administrators. Politico explained: “Khalil was a lead negotiator representing the student protesters to the Columbia administration during the school’s ‘Gaza Solidarity Encampment’ last spring. The student group behind the encampment — Columbia University Apartheid Divest, or CUAD — had two main demands: that Columbia cut all its ties to Israel, including divesting and halting plans to build a ‘global center’ in Tel Aviv, and that the protesters themselves receive amnesty for their actions.”

However, apparently aware of how damaging that fact is to his case, Khalil himself disputes this. The BBC framed Khalil’s connection to CUAD as if it were merely something his opponents claimed: “Activists supporting Israel have accused Mr Khalil of being a leader of Columbia University Apartheid Divest (Cuad), a student group that demanded, among other things, the university to divest from its financial ties to Israel and a ceasefire in Gaza. Mr Khalil has denied that he led the group, telling the Associated Press (AP) that he only served as a spokesperson for protesters and as a mediator with the university.”

It’s easy to see why Khalil would want to distance himself from CUAD. In August 2024, it posted this on Instagram, then removed it once it started getting appalled notice from saner quarters: “We are Westerners fighting for the total eradication of Western civilization.” During the anti-Israel protests at Columbia, the demonstrators screamed “Death to America.” (Read more from “Wife of Activist Trump Wants to Deport Just Tried to Blow Up the Whole Case Against Him” HERE)
