🚨 HUGE JUSTICE WIN! President Trump just announced Michael Cohen, the prosecution’s star witness and in reality the only witness in the New York AG and Manhattan DA witch hunts, has fully RECANTED. Not clarified. Not walked back. RECANTED. Pressured. Coerced. Said things that were not true. Trump is demanding every remnant of those politically weaponized cases be terminated and dismissed. Letitia James and Alvin Bragg built the whole thing on a witness who now says it was wrong and unlawful. Such a thing can never be allowed to happen again.

Svetlana Lokhova@RealSLokhova October 27, 2019I flew to NYC at my own expense to give very important testimony to the American people on Maria Bartiromo’s show. I stayed in a hotel near the studio, again at my own expense. This was during the Special Counsel Durham investigation, which I assisted.I am an eyewitness to the Grand Conspiracy against President Trump, which started in 2015, directed by Obama and implemented by the CIA, MI6, the FBI, and the media.I spoke to Maria and her producers for weeks in advance to make sure they understood the importance of the story. I was not...

Will Letitia James face any consequences for using the Attorney General's office to persecute political opponents? Or will voters in New York reward her for doing, well, pretty much what she explicitly promised to accomplish?I know which way I'm betting.Two days ago, one of James' assistant AGs went public to accuse her of ordering political vendettas, almost all of them without cause. The New York Post's editorial board called Daniel Wiesenfeld "the Whistleblower of the Year," but perhaps he might end up as the Jeremiah of the Empire State. Make no mistake, though – these allegations would certainly be abuses...

Anthony Fauci’s division at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) provided cover for sensitive CIA research on bioterrorism threats, according to documents obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation. An undated interagency agreement between the CIA and Fauci’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) appears to shed light on the origins of the institute’s involvement in biodefense. The CIA’s Biological Technology Center (BTC) initiated the collaboration on “forensic microbiology” on bioterrorism bugs for the intelligence community (IC). CIA funds would be used to leverage pre-existing civilian research efforts in a way that would benefit both CIA and NIH,...

The Census Bureau’s own Post-Enumeration Survey, the internal audit that checks the official count against a sample of households, found that Tennessee was undercounted by 4.78%, Florida by 3.48%, and Texas by 1.92%. On the other side of the ledger, Delaware was overcounted by 5.45%, Rhode Island by 5.05%, and New York by 3.44%, with Hawaii and Minnesota padded as well. These figures are the Bureau’s own, and they are not rounding artifacts. A 3.48% miss in a state of 22 million people is roughly 750,000 residents who were never recorded. The Bureau published these figures, described them as...

It didn’t happen all at once, but the timelines and the new document dumps paint a disturbing picture of what we knew would appear on the canvas long before Trump’s second presidency and the disclosures that exposed the whole deep state circus. We have former presidents, including Obama, ordering intelligence assessments to thread in Russian collusion nonsense; a former CIA director who lied about how the Steele Dossier, the document responsible for this hoax, was used in analyzing the intelligence; and the media’s incessant and destructive crusade to make this ruse legitimate. They failed because there was no evidence, and...

Three officials working in the U.S. Secret Service communications office were placed on administrative leave and stripped of their security clearances Monday, pending an investigation reportedly involving the CIA and FBI. While the Secret Service has not officially disclosed the names of the individuals or the specific nature of the allegations, multiple reports indicate the probe involves leaked classified or sensitive information to the media. According to RealClearPolitics reporter Susan Crabtree, controversial Chief of Communications Anthony Guglielmi is among the three officials placed on leave. Guglielmi and the other officials were reportedly escorted out of their offices in Washington D.C....

A major theme of President Trump’s critics is that he is corrupt. As a couple of examples, here is Elizabeth Warren on July 26 calling Trump “the most corrupt president of the United States any time in American history”; and here is a piece from the Guardian on August 11 calling Trump’s second term “the most openly corrupt” presidency ever. There are hundreds more where those came from. But is there anything to this? As long time readers here are aware, my view is that politics is inherently corrupt. In this way, politics differs from business, because in business it...

I note over at Townhall the always-worthwhile Matt Vespa's latest, wherein we read:President Trump was interviewed by his former attorney, Michael Cohen, the star witness in the hush money case, which verdict is under appeal. Trump said Cohen was weaponized against him by the Justice Department. Cohen agrees, adding that he felt coerced by the Feds. The case stems from the president's effort to pay adult film star Stormy Daniels $130,000 during the 2016 election.CNN legal analyst Elie Honig effectively pronounced the case dead, leaving its former cheerleaders with nothing but a pile of sad confetti. There's a reason federal...

Lead Anchor at CNN Jake Tapper comes out and admits THEY ALL KNEW Joe Biden wasn’t really President and calling the shots. He says there was an elite inner circle of advisors who would make the decisions and “steer the country.” He gives the names of the people in that group. Again, the mainstream media ALL KNEW Joe Biden wasn’t making decisions. “Tell me about the word choice, and then tell me about those people who were really calling the shots around the president.” Jake Tapper “So the Politburo, not a term we came up with, it's a term from...

Senators Ron Johnson and Rand Paul on Monday released the first batch of text messages from Dr. Fauci’s Covid-era iPhone. The text messages revealed that Fauci privately knew that the Covid vaccine caused miscarriages in pregnant women. Fauci covered up the data that revealed an 82% miscarriage rate in women vaccinated during the first trimester. Dr. Anthony Fauci privately discussed concerns about COVID-19 mRNA vaccines for pregnant women in January 2021, including questions about fever after a second dose and a theoretical risk of miscarriage during the first trimester, according to newly released text messages. The exchange involved Fauci, then-Centers...

As part of its Russia collusion hoax lawfare attacks on President Donald Trump, the FBI opened a “subcomponent investigation” of Crossfire Hurricane, treating Trump as a criminal subject based on already-debunked information linking him to Russia, according to a Trump administration official. The sub-investigation, known as “Oxferd Comma” was predicated on the idea that Trump, “the newly elected president, was acting as a Russian asset when he fired James Comey on May 9, 2017,” the administration official said. The case was marked as a “‘sensitive investigative matter,’ which was generally to keep it off the books from other agents to...

Rand Paul released some bombshell documents on Monday proving that the authors of the now-infamous "Proximal Origins of COVID-19" were never confident that the virus was not engineered and had not escaped from a lab, and that their suspicions grew over time that it was. You may have missed this story because...almost nobody covered it, and those who did were all in the conservative media. The paper, used by the media and the COVID mafia to insist that COVID had a natural origin, was a total fraud, as were the authors who maintained in public the line Anthony Fauci wanted...

Agents with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) were preparing to question a British zoologist and disease ecology expert upon his return to the United States from the World Health Organization’s investigation into the origins of COVID-19, before the FBI intervened and asked agents to stand down, according to files released Monday by Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky. "They told the public a COVID lab leak 'wasn’t plausible,'" Rand wrote on X. "Their own private messages say otherwise. Today I’m launching The Reading Room where the public can review records related to my ongoing investigation – not just conclusions but the...

We have all heard it many times. According to “journalists,” claims made by President Trump regarding election cheating are “unfounded,” “disproven,” and/or “debunked.” However, irrefutable evidence of large-scale 2020 election fraud exists. On Thursday night, the president outlined four specific areas of election concern. I’d like to address one of them: corrupt Michigan voter registrations in the 2020 election. Trump said, “Even when significant evidence of fraud has been detected, it has been buried and covered up.” The president is correct: Widespread evidence of Michigan fraud was detected before the 2020 election. After it was discovered and reviewed by the...

Two nights ago, President Trump went on national television and again called out the vulnerability of electronic voting machines to manipulation. The White House election-integrity page puts it bluntly: “For years Americans were blatantly lied to about the security of our election infrastructure, including electronic voting machines and ballot-counting systems.” In its typical smokescreen tactic to distract the public from the facts, the left immediately dismissed the concerns as a “conspiracy theory.” But in this case, not so fast... The left should have asked federal democrat Judge Amy Totenberg first. In October 2020—just weeks before the presidential election—U.S. District Judge...

Strange to relate, in last night’s speech to the nation on election chicanery, President Trump managed to both overwhelm and underwhelm public expectation. He touched on voting machine shenanigans, registration skullduggery, cyber-fuckery, labor union toolery, ballot fraud, and especially China meddling.Internal CIA / FBI docs at the time said that China’s policy around the 2020 US election was to “leverage all domestic and foreign elements” opposed to the President to prevent his re-election. The Intel bunch never sent that memo to the White House. They were too busy pushing fake Russia meddling, fake impeachment, and a fake Covid-19 pandemic. Then...

Trump’s speech didn’t make the case, while sowing voting distrust. President Trump broke into prime-time TV on Thursday night to talk to the nation about election security, but it must have been a letdown for anybody expecting a thrilling plot twist in Mr. Trump’s long yarn about his 2020 defeat. Instead he made a sales pitch for a bill that can’t pass, using doubts it wouldn’t address. Mr. Trump released documents that he said show vulnerabilities in U.S. election systems, and some of them are real, though they run the gamut. He said voter files on millions of people, including...

Layout of convergent assault on our national election infrastructure. A newly released 799-page report titled “An Attack Upon U.S Critical Infrastructure” details the 2020 election corruption and beyond. It provides a list of 18 prioritized and recommended election investigations, along with 8 search warrants. Entities named include Runbeck Election Services, Elections Group LLC, The Office of Georgia SOS, Tyler Technologies, Associated Press, and many others. All assertions in the report are drawn from forensic analyses, sworn legislative testimony, court filings, IG investigations, vendor invoices, open-source intelligence, government communications obtained through litigation and FOIA, and more. Recommended Search Warrants by title,...

His knowledge and expertise may be the final thing necessary to bring the years-long Russia Collusion hoax to a just conclusion. It started back in 2019 with an article by Thomas Lifson, co-founder of American Thinker. Lifson highlighted stunning revelations from former U.S. Attorney Joe DiGenova (DC District) about RICO and the Russia Hoax. That piece crystallized what so many sensed: powerful players were bending rules, narratives, and investigations to protect themselves while targeting threats to the status quo. I wrote to Lifson framing it as evidence of a silent coup—a RICO-style criminal enterprise. He encouraged me to explore using...
