Spy Bosses ‘Silenced’ Defense Department, FBI Scientists From Briefing Biden on COVID Lab Leak Evidence

Spy chiefs “silenced” researchers in the Defense Department and FBI who discovered strong evidence that COVID-19 most likely leaked from a Chinese lab, The Post has learned.

As a result, their findings were kept out of an August 2021 report to President Biden on the origins of the global pandemic.

That report concluded that the virus behind COVID “was probably not genetically engineered.”

After the pandemic erupted in Wuhan, China, three scientists from the Defense Intelligence Agency began trying to figure out exactly where it came from — whether SARS-CoV-2 jumped from bats into humans, or whether the virus was man-made and came from a lab accident.

The “zoonotic origin” theory was backed by powerful members of the public health establishment, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, and questions about a possible “lab leak” were repeatedly dismissed as a conspiracy theory.

IG Report Reveals FBI Could Still Be Spying on Congress and Leaking to Help Democrats

Can you imagine the danger to our republic if the Executive Branch could secretly, for months on end, and without any clear and compelling justification, surveil the very people in Congress conducting oversight of those agencies?

That chilling constitutional nightmare transpired. And we’re only getting the details about the separation-of-powers-eviscerating, civil liberties-undermining, and transparency-imperiling activity seven years after it started.

The revelations come in a recently released Justice Department Inspector General report. Like much of this corrupt activity, the story begins with Russiagate. In the spring and summer of 2017, the first year of the Trump presidency, CNN, The New York Times, and The Washington Post published articles containing classified information concerning Trump and Russia.

Among the unauthorized disclosures to emerge was that a FISA warrant had been issued to surveil Trump’s foreign policy adviser Carter Page. The dubious warrants would be renewed four times.

Page was framed as a Russian agent through authorities’ omission of critical exculpatory information and reliance on the dodgy Steele dossier that federal investigators could never corroborate. An official would later be prosecuted for doctoring information about Page used to justify FISA warrant renewal.

Luigi Mangione’s Mom Spoke With the FBI the Night Before Accused CEO Killer Was Arrested: Sources

The FBI spoke to Luigi Mangione’s mother the night before her son’s high-profile arrest and told the feds he bore a resemblance to the suspect wanted for killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, according to law enforcement sources.

Members of the Joint Violent Crimes Task Force questioned Kathleen Mangione late Sunday night after receiving a tip from San Francisco police – four days prior – about a missing person’s report the family had filed with the department in November, the sources said.

Police tipped off the feds after they recognized the 26-year-old’s face in surveillance images put out by the NYPD after Thompson, 50, was gunned down last week – but his mother wasn’t completely confident that was actually her son in the images.

His mom reported him missing to San Francisco police on Nov. 18. She noted that she hadn’t spoken to her son since July 1 and was unaware of his whereabouts, according to the report.

The alleged assassin had reportedly vanished for several months after fleeing the US to “zen out” on a solo Asia trip before abruptly returning to allegedly kill Thompson. (Read more from “Luigi Mangione’s Mom Spoke With the FBI the Night Before Accused CEO Killer Was Arrested: Sources” HERE)

DOJ Finally Releases Suppressed IG report on Jan 6: Here’s What They’re Still Covering Up

By Revolver News. Loyal and longtime readers may recall that we began our very first major report exploring federal involvement in the January 6 Fedsurrection began with a striking exchange between Senator Amy Klobuchar and Christopher Wray, in which Klobuchar asks the FBI director if he had any informants in place prior to January 6th. . .

Early this afternoon, the Department of Justice finally released its long suppressed Inspector General report on January 6th. The substance of the report, as well as the timing help to shed light on FBI Director Christopher Wray’s seemingly abrupt and premature decision to resign (announced yesterday). Indeed, while the report must be understood in essence as a limited hangout cover-up job released under great reluctance, what it does reveal is damning enough for Christopher Wray, the FBI, and the malicious and discredited Fedsurrection narrative as a whole.

Let’s start with some of the highlights. First, the FBI IG report acknowledges the presence of multiple CHS’s (informants) some of whom were sent to DC for Jan 6 by the FBI, and some of whom went on their own accord and reported to their handlers in the FBI.

We found no evidence in the materials we reviewed or the testimony we received showing or suggesting that the FBI had undercover employees in the various protest crowds, or at the Capitol, on January 6. We reviewed the documented CHS reporting that the FBI had prior to the riot and breach of the Capitol on January 6, 2021. We determined that three CHSs had been tasked by FBI field offices in the days leading up to the January 6 Electoral Certification, with the required approval of the WFO, to travel to DC for the events of January 6 to report on domestic terrorism subjects who were possibly attending the event. Specifically: One FBI field office tasked a CHS to travel to DC to report on the activities of a predicated domestic terrorism subject who was separately planning to travel to DC for the January 6 Electoral Certification; a second FBI field office tasked a CHS to travel to DC to potentially report on two domestic terrorism (DT) subjects from another FBI field office who were planning to travel to DC for the events of January 6; and a third CHS, who had informed their handling agent that they intended to travel to DC on their own initiative for the events of January 6, was similarly tasked by their field office to potentially report on two DT subjects from other FBI field offices who were planning to travel to DC for the events of January 6. Our review 5 concluded that none of these three FBI CHSs were authorized to enter the Capitol or a restricted area, or to otherwise break the law on January 6, nor was any CHS directed by the FBI to encourage others to commit illegal acts on January 6.

In other words, we see that there were at least three informants who had been tasked directly with following specific targets and informing on their plans in relation to January 6th. (Read more from “DOJ Finally Releases Suppressed IG report on Jan 6: Here’s What They’re Still Covering Up” HERE)

DOJ Inspector General Reveals Details About FBI Informants and January 6

By Townhall. Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz released a report Thursday revealing the FBI used dozens of confidential human sources in the lead up to former President Donald Trump’s speech at the Ellipse on January 6, 2021 and ahead of the congressional certification of the 2020 presidential election results at the U.S. Capitol. Horowitz also noted some of these sources were on the ground in Washington D.C. on January 6, but not authorized to enter the U.S. Capitol or to encourage attendees of Trump’s rally to commit illegal acts.

“Our review determined that none of these FBI CHSs was authorized by the FBI to enter the Capitol or a restricted area or to otherwise break the law on January 6, nor was any CHS directed by the FBI to encourage others to commit illegal acts on January 6,” Horowitz’ office released in a statement.

Many informants illegally entered the U.S. Capitol anyway, but have not been charged.

“None of the CHSs who entered the Capitol or a restricted area has been prosecuted to date,” the report states. (Read more from “DOJ Inspector General Reveals Details About FBI Informants and January 6” HERE)

Oversight Panel Probes Federal Agency Over Unhinged Post Claiming U.S. Is Devolving Into Nazi Germany

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer demanded answers from the Selective Service agency for reposting a vulgar social media screed last month suggesting the US may be on a similar trajectory to Nazi Germany.

Although the report was subsequently scrubbed from the Selective Service’s official X account, Comer (R-Ky.) is keen on obtaining additional information on the matter and wants to ensure the perpetrator is fired.

“The Committee is deeply disturbed that an independent federal agency, tasked with registering and maintaining a system of individuals potentially subject to military conscription if authorized by the President and Congress, would re-post a wholly unsubstantiated, false, and contemptible claim,” Comer wrote in a letter to Selective Service System acting director Joel Spangenberg on Thursday.

“The individual at fault for reposting such an inappropriate and disturbing message on an Agency X account should be terminated.”

One day after the Nov. 5 election, the Selective Service X account reposted a remark by user “SloJoe” likening the incoming Trump administration to Nazi Germany. (Read more from “Oversight Panel Probes Federal Agency Over Unhinged Post Claiming U.S. Is Devolving Into Nazi Germany” HERE)

Later, Deep Stater! FBI Wray Resigns; Trump Celebrates Resignation of FBI Chief With Epic Message

By Breitbart. FBI Director Christopher Wray confirmed the rumors on Wednesday, previewing his plans to resign ahead of President-elect Donald Trump’s second term.

According to the Washington Post, Wray — who replaced anti-Trumper James Comey in 2017 — made the announcement during a townhall with what the outlet described as the “FBI workforce.” Wray maintained that his stepping down is the best option for the FBI as a whole.

Wray reportedly said in part, “My goal is to keep the focus on our mission — the indispensable work you’re doing on behalf of the American people every day.”

“In my view, this is the best way to avoid dragging the Bureau deeper into the fray, while reinforcing the values and principles that are so important to how we do our work,” he continued, revealing that the decision was “not easy for me.”

“I love this place, I love our mission, and I love our people — but my focus is, and always has been, on us and doing what’s right for the FBI,” he claimed.

Trump Celebrates Resignation of FBI Chief With Epic Message

By WND. Christopher Wray, the FBI chief who oversaw the weaponization of the federal agency against now President-elect Donald Trump, with the bureau’s SWAT raid on Trump’s home, its participation in the “Russia, Russia, Russia” collusion conspiracy and more, is leaving.

The move is voluntary, but inevitable, given that Trump already had expressed his desire for a different FBI chief, and in fact already had nominated Kash Patel.

Trump responded to the word delivered by Wray to FBI employees:

“The resignation of Christopher Wray is a great day for America as it will end the Weaponization of what has become known as the United States Department of Injustice. I just don’t know what happened to him. We will now restore the Rule of Law for all Americans,” he said.

“Under the leadership of Christopher Wray, the FBI illegally raided my home, without cause, worked diligently on illegally impeaching and indicting me, and has done everything else to interfere with the success and future of America. They have used their vast powers to threaten and destroy many innocent Americans, some of which will never be able to recover from what has been done to them.” (Read more from “Trump Celebrates Resignation of FBI Chief With Epic Message” HERE)

DEI FBI Agent Convicted of Robbing People Blind During J6 Home Raid

How much lower can the FBI sink? Just when you think this disgraceful agency has hit rock bottom, they manage to dig even deeper. This time, it’s yet another DEI hire making a total mockery of the badge. Agent Nicholas Anthony Williams has been arrested and convicted for robbing people blind during home invasion raids—and yes, at least one of those raids targeted a January 6th political prisoner.

As if it wasn’t bad enough that the regime weaponized the FBI to go after non-violent Americans, now we find out that during those raids, Agent Williams was lurking around like a common thief, helping himself to their belongings.

Honestly, this is what the DEI agenda does: it takes our once-esteemed agencies and institutions and turns them into a colossal joke. And sadly, it’s still going strong, as this shameful story proves.

Liberty News:

A former FBI agent, Nicholas Anthony Williams, has been convicted of stealing cash, valuables, and other property while executing search warrants, including items taken from the home of a non-violent January 6 defendant. The conviction, tied to a series of thefts spanning years, has further fueled scrutiny of federal law enforcement practices.

Williams, 36, worked in the FBI’s Houston field office since 2019. He was indicted in January 2023 in the Southern District of Texas on charges of theft, fraud, and making false statements. According to court documents, Williams exploited his role as a federal agent to steal money and property during searches, which he then converted for personal use.

The stolen items included cash, silver bars, cell phones, and government-issued property. Williams also made false claims about fraudulent charges on his FBI-issued credit card, alleging they were legitimate case-related expenses. His actions culminated in a September guilty plea, in which he confessed to five thefts committed between 2020 and 2023.

Suspect in Child Molestation Videos Posted to Dark Web Identified by His Tattoos, FBI Says

A suspect in a child molestation video was identified in part by his tattoos that had been recorded in another molestation case, according to the FBI.

Agents of the FBI Dallas Field Office in San Angelo arrested 48-year-old Christopher Lynn Driskill on Nov. 26 and charged him with production of child pornography.

Driskill was living with his parents in Coleman, Texas, according to the FBI.

The FBI said Driskill was identified by his tattoos after someone he had been dating told Coleman Police that Driskill said while drunk that he had molested a child in Coleman and recorded the molestation. Driskill denied the allegation when interviewed by investigators, and the child did not make an outcry when interviewed, so police closed the case due to lack of evidence.

However, Driskill’s video interview with police led to images of his tattoos being uploaded to a FBI database and were used to link him to a heinous case of child molestation. (Read more from “Suspect in Child Molestation Videos Posted to Dark Web Identified by His Tattoos, FBI Says” HERE)

An FBI Agent Refused To Go Along With The Biden Admin’s Anti-‘Extremism’ Agenda — It Cost Him His Career

When Zach Schoffstall, a former supervisory senior resident agent in the FBI’s Salt Lake City Division, heard his bosses wanted to focus more on “domestic terrorism” and “hate crimes,” he tried to work with them. He brought the U.S. Attorney in Idaho two hate crime cases.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office (USAO) declined to prosecute both. Instead, Schoffstall told the Daily Caller, the Attorney for the District of Idaho, Josh Hurwit, said he was more interested in appeasing the Biden administration by hosting seminars to talk about hate crimes. Later on, when the FBI pushed Schoffstall to execute a search warrant against a “domestic extremist” group protesting LGBTQ activists, he refused. It eventually cost him his career.

“I had been told I brought embarrassment to the bureau because of all the pressure that DOJ placed on the bureau to get that warrant,” Schoffstall told the Caller.

In June of 2022, 31 Patriot Front members were arrested and charged with conspiracy to riot after they were found carrying poles and shields in a U-Haul at a Coeur d’Alene “Pride in the Park” event. Schoffstall said the group is known to protest BLM, LGBTQ, and anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) events.

Pride in the Park generated outrage after it was revealed that Idaho’s Satanic Temple chapter and sexualized drag queens would be present at the “family-friendly” event. Christian pastors, however, were removed for allegedly trespassing. The Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office said that month that it was investigating whether a performer’s genitals were potentially exposed, according to the Idaho Dispatch.

WATCH: Powerful Democrat Pushes Twisted Definition of ‘The Deep State’

Democratic Maryland Rep. Jamie Raskin on CNN Sunday said he had not seen “proof” the FBI was being weaponized against one political party, while calling out President-elect Donald Trump’s pick of Kash Patel as his FBI director.

Trump announced Saturday his plans to replace current FBI Director Christopher Wray, whom he appointed during his first term, with Patel, whom he said would help the agency “end the growing crime epidemic in America, dismantle the migrant criminal gangs, and stop the evil scourge of human and drug trafficking across the border.” On “State of the Union,” guest host Kasie Hunt began by asking for Raskin’s reaction to Trump’s pick.

“Well, Christopher Wray, of course, is a Republican, appointed by a Republican, as he has said. But apparently he has demonstrated too much independence and objectivity in the job for Donald Trump, who wants much more of a personal loyalist in the position, and that’s why he’s gone to Kash Patel,” Raskin said.

Hunt then jumped in and questioned the Democratic lawmaker on whether he believed there were “any issues” inside the FBI under its current leadership, to which Raskin did not deny historically, but claimed there was no current proof for one party being targeted, as he listed Democrats who had been charged federally.
