Investigative journalist James O’Keefe posted his latest undercover video report to 𝕏 Monday, exposing a fraudulent scheme where firms are reportedly ripping off taxpayers to the tune of around $100 billion. https://x.com/JamesOKeefeIII/status/1980344367014429114?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1980344367014429114%7Ctwgr%5Ea7b4e89b38fb543b04f961523d4fa0cef11fef49%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.infowars.com%2Fposts%2Fjames-okeefe-exposes-massive-100-billion-federal-contracting-scam-in-latest-undercover-video Hilariously hiding his identity with a cheap wig and eyeglasses, O’Keefe filmed a meeting he had with the director of contracts for ATI Government Solutions where the scam was openly discussed during a meal. O’Keefe explained the Biden administration’s 8(a) SBA Program is being exploited by shell companies that receive lucrative no-bid government contracts for being Native American-owned, collect around 65% of the money and pass along the...

On Fox News this morning, President Donald Trump ripped Democrat lawmakers who have kept the government shutdown for 19 days. He said that they have “Trump Derangement Syndrome." “We have a deal. We just want an extension. And the reason we want an extension is because you can’t make a deal with these people. They’re lunatics. They’re gone crazy. They’re crazed people. Trump derangement syndrome. There really is that disease. At first, I found it to be amusing. Now, I find there really is - they want $1.5 trillion for health care for illegal aliens. If we do that, it...

Gunther Eagleman™ @GuntherEagleman BREAKING: This CNN host started stuttering as she realized just HOW MANY people are FINALLY being held accountable! John Bolton, John Brennan, Lisa Cook, Chris Krebs, Adam Schiff, Jack Smith, Miles Taylor, Reid Hoffman, Mark Milley, George Soros, Fani Willis, and Chris Wray. There are HUNDREDS more that need to be indicted.

We've known for a while that the FBI and DOJ, under the Biden administration, ran an operation called "Arctic Frost" that targeted conservative figures and organizations, including the late Charlie Kirk and TPUSA. Yesterday, we learned that former Special Counsel Jack Smith was also monitoring the private communications of nearly a dozen GOP senators, including Ron Johnson (R-WI) and Josh Hawley (R-MO). In response to that revelation, FBI Director Kash Patel has started cleaning house. Here's what Fox News is reporting:The FBI has already terminated employees and abolished the CR-15 squad just one day after it was revealed that several...

“FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino briefed GOP Sens. Lindsey Graham, Josh Hawley, Ron Johnson, Marsha Blackburn and more Monday” EXCLUSIVE: Former Special Counsel Jack Smith was allegedly tracking the private communications and phone calls of nearly a dozen Republican Senators as part of his investigation into the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riots, Fox News Digital has learned. A document, reviewed by Fox News Digital, revealed that Smith and his "Arctic Frost" team investigating Jan. 6 were allegedly tracking the phone calls of GOP Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, Josh Hawley of...

The FBI has already terminated employees and abolished the CR-15 squad just one day after it was revealed that several Republicans’ private communications and phone calls had been tracked. FBI Director Kash Patel on Tuesday announced the actions the bureau had taken in response to the revelation of the "baseless monitoring" during the Biden administration and promised more actions to come. "We are cleaning up a diseased temple three decades in the making — identifying the rot, removing those who weaponized law enforcement for political purposes and those who do not meet the standards of this mission while restoring integrity...

President Trump said on Monday that he would invoke the Insurrection Act in Portland if necessary. “Portland is on fire. Portland’s been on fire for years, and that’s not so much saving it. We have to save something else, because I think that’s all insurrection,” Mr. Trump told reporters at the White House. “I really think that’s criminal insurrection.” Mr. Trump said he would do what “was necessary” if it came down to invoking the Insurrection Act in Portland. “So far it hasn’t been necessary. But we have an Insurrection Act for a reason. If I had to enact it,...

The FBI is considering carrying out a "showy" arrest and perp walk of the agency's now-indicted ex-Director James Comey, and has suspended an agent who refused to participate in the plan, three sources familiar with the matter told CBS News.Comey was charged last week with lying to Congress and obstructing a congressional proceeding, an unprecedented move that came after President Trump publicly pressured Attorney General Pam Bondi to look into his longtime adversary. A grand jury voted to indict him on Sept. 25 and hours later, Comey was issued a summons directing him to appear in federal court in northern...

More than 1,000 illegal aliens in Illinois have been arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Border Patrol officers as part of Operation Midway Blitz, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said Friday. The milestone came the same day Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem traveled to Chicago, where she joined agents on raids. One of the raids, which netted several detentions, was at a Walmart. DHS officials say the operation is pulling some of the "worst of the worst" off the streets. Arrests include pedophiles, child abusers, kidnappers, gang members, and armed robbers. The crackdown began Sept....

@unlimited_ls FBI Director Kash Patel reveals that Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin Tyler Robinson’s Discord group had more than 20 members and they may soon be questioned. “Going back to the group chats real quick, there's more than 20 individuals.” “We, the FBI, are running the investigation point on the Discord chat group. There are scores of individuals that are going to be spoken to.”

Patrick Byrne @PatrickByrne Your DOJ: Pam Bondi works remotely from Florida, flies up for announcements. Todd Blanche runs Pam's DOJ, was a Dem until Jan 2025, and has blocked: Tina's release Investigation into Dominion Restitution for J6 political prisoners Pardons Trump wants done cf. Ticktin (below) Also see: Post Conversation LindellTV @RealLindellTV EXCLUSIVE with Peter Ticktin: “Todd Blanche is blocking Trump's agenda at DOJ” Peter Ticktin, former attorney for President Trump, breaks his silence, accusing President Trump’s current legal advisor Todd Blanche of intentionally stalling pardons, blocking access to whistleblowers, and suppressing justice for J6ers and election integrity fighters like...

EXCLUSIVE: The FBI responded on Saturday to a report that 274 plainclothes agents were at the U.S. Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021, clarifying the role of bureau personnel while still blasting former Director Christopher Wray.While the agents were on hand, they were sent in after the riot had begun to try to control the unruly crowd, officials told Fox News Digital. That is not the proper role of FBI agents, and Wray was not forthcoming about what happened when he testified numerous times on Capitol Hill, Director Kash Patel said."Agents were sent into a crowd control mission after the...

I expressed my reservations about the indictment of James Comey here. Former federal prosecutor Andrew McCarthy takes a deep dive into the facts relevant to the indictment, and concludes that it should be thrown out of court. This is what the indictment says: On or about September 30, 2020, in the Eastern District of Virginia, the defendant, JAMES B. COMEY JR., did willfully and knowingly make a materially false, fictitious, and fraudulent statement…by falsely stating to a U.S. Senator during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing that he, JAMES B. COMEY JR., had not “authorized someone else at the FBI to...

Today a grand jury in northern Virginia indicted James Comey on two criminal counts that I take to be essentially the same. The indictment has nothing to do, at least directly, with Comey’s misconduct in connection with the Russia Collusion Hoax. He deserves to go down in history as a betrayer of his office and of the American people for that shameful conduct. Here, he is charged with a single misdeed: lying when he told a Senate committee, in response to a question from Ted Cruz, that he did not authorize someone at the FBI to be an anonymous source....

Vigilant Fox 🦊 @VigilantFox REPORT: As America grieved Charlie Kirk’s death, California rammed through one of the harshest censorship bills in U.S. history. SB 771 gives the state sweeping power to police online speech—with penalties so crushing they could bankrupt ordinary citizens. Lawmakers approved $500,000 fines for “hateful” posts, and $1 million for willful violations. In under a week, the bill shot through both chambers and now sits on Gavin Newsom’s desk. If signed, politicians—not the people—will decide which words are allowed, and which could destroy your life. This isn’t just a California problem. The same playbook is already silencing...

In the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, the media and Democratic Party politicians have pointed to the 2020 scheme to abduct and assassinate Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer as evidence that political violence comes from both sides of the political spectrum. News organizations routinely cite the plot in a timeline of recent incidents of political violence in this country; Whitmer herself mentioned the plan to “kidnap and kill me” in a video message posted on X last week while condemning Kirk’s murder. But the two examples aren’t comparable, and not only because Gretchen Whitmer was never harmed – nor ever in...

@FBIDirectorKash As the Director of the FBI, I am committed to ensuring the investigation into Charlie Kirk’s assassination is thorough and exhaustive, pursuing every lead to its conclusion. The full weight of America’s law enforcement agencies are actively following the evidence that has emerged, but our efforts extend beyond initial findings. We are examining every facet of this assassination. We are meticulously investigating theories and questions, including the location from where the shot was taken, the possibility of accomplices, the text message confession and related conversations, Discord chats, the angle of the shot and bullet impact, how the weapon was...

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller and Vice President J.D. Vance discuss their effort to combat political violence and radicalization: VANCE: A lot of people are very worried about how we got here in the first place and you have the crazies on the far left who are saying, "Oh, Stephen Miller and JD Vance, they're gonna go after constitutionally protected speech." No, no, no, we're gonna go after the NGO network that foments, facilitates and engages in violence -- that's not OK. Violence is not OK in our system, and we want to make it less likely...

Defending Kash Patel from HimselfSeptember 14, 2025 | Sundance Many people were thrilled with the nomination and eventual confirmation of Kash Patel to be Director of the FBI. However, with decades of researching the political weaponization of the FBI and against the known capabilities of the nominee, we were not part of the thrilled group.The non-pretenders looked at the challenge, contrast the scope of work against the skillset of the person selected to confront the institutional corruption, and warned people there was more reason to be apprehensive than optimistic.Do you remember us outlining how the various FBI field offices would...

A bionic arm, a chicken coop and three botched arrests. As Kash Patel's reputation as FBI chief hung in the balance following the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the alleged assassin's father turned him. Donald Trump on Friday announced that the suspect was finally in custody - 44 hours after the fatal shot that killed Kirk at Utah Valley University on Wednesday. A bionic arm, chicken coops and the wrong men: The wild 44-hour search that almost turned Kash Patel into a laughingstock The Assassination of Charlie Kirk: Listen to the latest on the Daily Mail podcast By JOE HUTCHISON, US...
