Paul Sperry @paulsperry_ Just as Obama ordered post-election intel to smear Trump, he ordered pre-debate intel to help Hillary. Obama approved the "joint statement" manufactured by Clapper conveniently on Oct. 7, 2016 -- 2 days before the prez debate -- and Clinton used it to tar Trump as a Russian agent 5:15 PM · Jul 21, 2025

In an explosive interview with Benny Johnson, former National Security Advisor General Michael Flynn issued a fiery demand for immediate federal action, calling on the FBI to raid Barack Obama’s Washington, D.C., mansion as part of a long-overdue investigation into the criminal conspiracy behind the now-exploded Russia collusion hoax. Flynn, citing the same standard used to justify the unprecedented and disgraceful FBI raid on President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence, demanded that Obama and his deep state cabal be treated the same way—raided, investigated, and prosecuted. Flynn says this should be just the first step: revoke passports for all involved in the...

Somali gangs have become a serious and growing threat to public safety in Minnesota, with most of them being involved in violent crimes, drug trafficking, and disrupting neighborhoods, putting countless families at risk. However, left-wing politicians seem more interested in protecting politically correct narratives than reporting the hard truth. House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-MN) highlighted the growing trend of Somali gangs wreaking havoc in his state. "Unfortunately, the failing press in Minnesota, especially in the Twin Cities, is not. These Somali gangs are incredibly dangerous," Emmer said. "We had an attack at a high school basketball game last spring...

The Trump administration released a huge batch of previously classified documents on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination on Monday as Americans clamor for information about Jeffrey Epstein. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard announced that the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) was publishing 230,000 pages worth of documents relating to the civil rights leader's April 1968 assassination. The release was in accordance with Donald Trump's executive order earlier this year mandating the release of files on former President John F. Kennedy, former Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy and MLK. The release comes as the Trump administration...

"She doesn't get to give the Senate two weeks' notice," Senate Minority Leader Mark Johnson said of Mitchell's plan to resign by Aug. 4 .... Senator Nicole Mitchell, DFL-Woodbury, has announced she will resign from the Minnesota Senate next month. Her announcement comes just days after she was convicted of two felonies, first-degree burglary and possession of burglary or theft tools. In April of 2024, Mitchell was arrested after breaking into her stepmother’s Detroit Lakes home with the intent to take items that once belonged to her late father. A jury convicted Mitchell of both felonies after a week-long trial...

former President Barack Obama judge has reportedly been assigned to President Donald Trump's $10 billion defamation lawsuit against Rupert Murdoch and The Wall Street Journal. U.S. District Judge Darrin Gayles in the Southern District of Florida was nominated by Obama in February 2014, and became the first openly gay Black federal judge. Gayles was also assigned a Trump $500 million lawsuit against embattled former attorney Michael Cohen in 2023, but Trump was forced to temporarily pause that case due to court-date conflicts in the Democrat prosecutor-led cases he faced before the 2024 presidential election. Gayles has filed dissent against voter...

James Comey broke his silence on Sunday evening and went off on President Trump after the Justice Department fired Maurene Comey. Maurene Comey, daughter of James Comey, was fired as a federal prosecutor in the Manhattan US Attorney’s office last Wednesday. “There was no specific reason given for her firing from the U.S. attorney’s office in the Southern District of New York, according to one of the people who spoke to the AP on the condition of anonymity to discuss personnel matters,” the AP reported.

Legal and migrant advocacy groups fighting to block New York from helping the Trump administration enforce US immigration laws have been awarded more than $600 million in taxpayer dollars from the city and state governments, a Post review of contracts revealed.

Noted attorney Alan Dershowitz said Sunday he could be called as a witness in President Donald Trump’s suit against The Wall Street Journal, arguing that he could help “prove malice” in the case. Trump announced he’d filed suit against the WSJ and its owner, Rupert Murdoch, Friday over an article that claimed he sent disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein a bawdy letter celebrating his birthday. Dershowitz told “Sunday Agenda” host Lidia Curanaj he also was contacted by the WSJ over a letter he reportedly sent, which the outlet couldn’t produce. “I’ll probably be called as a witness in the case, because...

WASHINGTON — Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg failed to replace outdated air-traffic-control systems while in office — with his agency instead shelling out tens of billions of dollars on a DEI agenda, according to federal spending records and airline-industry insiders. What his department was really interested in was handing out hundreds of diversity, equity and inclusion grants totaling more than $80 billion over four years — at least half of the DOT’s entire budget for a typical fiscal year, records show.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) acting director Todd Lyons said in an interview that aired Sunday that his agency will crack down on American companies hiring unauthorized workers. “Not only are we focused on those individuals that are, you know, working here illegally, we’re focused on these American companies that are actually exploiting these laborers,” Lyons said on CBS News’s “Face the Nation.” “These people that came here for a better life. You know, either, you know, forced labor, child trafficking, you know, a lot of these work site cases — just isn’t a victimless crime of someone here...

President Trump on Sunday called for Adam Schiff to be prosecuted and dropped receipts on the Democrat Senator’s mortgage fraud. “Adam Schiff is a THIEF! He should be prosecuted, just like they tried to prosecute me, and everyone else — The only difference is, WE WERE TOTALLY INNOCENT, IT WAS ALL A GIANT HOAX!” President Trump said on Truth Social. President Trump attached a screenshot of a signed and notarized affidavit that Schiff signed proclaiming the mortgaged property in Maryland is his “principal residence.” Adam Schiff also has a condominium in Los Angeles, California, that he claims is his “primary...

This comes after the DNC invested $20 million into her youth engagement campaign targeting young male voters—a campaign that has, to date, produced little to no measurable results.

The walls are closing in on Obama’s Deep State. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard dropped a political nuke Sunday morning on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo. Gabbard confirmed that multiple intelligence whistleblowers—some of whom helped compile the now-debunked 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA)—are “coming out of the woodwork” and preparing to hand over sworn affidavits to the Department of Justice.

Democrat panic is reaching a boiling point. Democrat Congressman Jim Himes (D-CT), the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, went into full-blown panic mode, demanding that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard stop releasing documents that expose Obama-era Deep State collusion and abuse of power. Gabbard’s move follows a stunning declassification of documents that expose how Barack Obama’s intelligence cronies — including John Brennan — used Hillary Clinton’s phony Russia dossier to frame Trump and orchestrate an illegal coup attempt. But Rep. Himes doesn’t want the truth to see daylight. In a truly unhinged interview, Himes lashed out at...
