FBI agents raided a building on Dorrance Street in downtown Providence on Thursday morning. "There is court authorized activity at that location," said Jim Martin, a spokesman for U.S. Attorney Zachary A. Cunha's office. He declined to elaborate. The 127 Dorrance St. building houses the offices of Joseph Molina Flynn, an immigration lawyer in Massachusetts and Rhode Island who serves as a municipal court judge in Central Falls. Molina Flynn's office is the focus of the search, according to multiple sources. Molina Flynn was the first openly gay person and the first formerly undocumented person to serve on the bench...

A law enforcement expert is poking holes in the now-former Biden administration Department of Justice's repeated claims that violent crime sank to a 50-year record low, saying the agency "manipulated data" to reach its conclusion. In 2024, the Biden administration repeatedly claimed that violent crime was at a 50-year low, based on FBI statistics. The FBI defines the following as "violent crime": murder, manslaughter, rape, robbery and aggravated assault. But Ken Alexandrow, a security expert who served for 26 years as a Nashville, Tennessee, police officer, said the former administration "manipulated data" to reach a certain outcome. "The way crime...

President Donald Trump’s blanket pardon for more than 1,500 defendants convicted on charges related to Jan. 6 includes Ray Epps. Epps, who was recorded encouraging others to enter the Capitol, was sentenced to a year of probation and ordered to pay $500 restitution in January 2024. Prosecutors offered Epps a misdemeanor plea deal after he cooperated with the investigation, recommending a six month jail sentence. Other Jan. 6 defendants received harsher sentences for their actions at the Capitol. (RELATED: ‘Clearly Got A Break’: Legal Experts Weigh In On Ray Epps’ Probation Sentence) In one of his first actions Monday, Trump...

A federal judge on Tuesday ruled that the Justice Department cannot share special counsel Jack Smith's classified documents report with members of Congress. U.S. District Court Judge Aileen Cannon extended the hold she had placed blocking the DOJ from sharing with four lawmakers Smith's report on his probe into President Donald Trump's alleged mishandling of classified documents. "In short, the Department offers no valid justification for the purportedly urgent desire to release to members of Congress case information in an ongoing criminal proceeding," Cannon wrote in an order published Tuesday, the day after Trump returned to office. Cannon, who dismissed...

President Biden’s commutation for Leonard Peltier, who killed two FBI special agents, drew sharp criticism from the FBI Agents Association. Natalie Bara, president of the FBIAA, said the organization was “outraged by then-President Biden’s decision to commute the sentence of Leonard Peltier, a convicted cop killer responsible for the brutal murders of FBI Special Agents Jack Coler and Ronald Williams.” Ms. Bara said that while Mr. Biden’s “last-second, disgraceful act” does not change Peltier’s guilt, it “does release him from prison is cowardly and lacks accountability.”

Just moments before leaving office, President Joe Biden commuted the life sentence of Indigenous activist Leonard Peltier, who was convicted in the 1975 killings of two FBI agents. Peltier, the so-called "activist" was a violent communist "revolutionary" who was part of the murder of two fbi agents via contact shots to the head following an extensive gun battle.

The Justice Department did little, if anything, to stop the millions of illegals that the Biden administration openly allowed to come across the border. The illegals crossing included gangs, terrorists, killers, rapists, and tens of thousands of young Chinese men. And now, on Joe Biden's, Merrick Garland's and Christopher Wray's way out, we learn that Chinese "transactional criminal organizations" are getting licenses to sell marijuana in Maine. Anyone who would think this is only going on in Maine needs to have his head examined. The Chinese have been allowed to essentially infiltrate America in many ways, including the Biden administration...

A January 6th defendant on the run from the Biden Regime that was granted political asylum and refugee status by the President of Belarus is asking President Trump for help. In an exclusive interview with the Gateway Pundit, Evan Neumann of California is pleading with President Trump for a pardon so he can return home to United States to be with his two children. Neumann has spent the past 3 and a half years as a political refugee in Belarus after escaping Biden’s FBI and the Ukrainian SBU (Secret Service) by ditching his electronics and walking 18 hours through a...

Jeffrey Epstein was offered a sweetheart plea deal by federal prosecutors in return for incriminating information that would lead to President Trump’s impeachment, according to the late pedophile’s cellmate. Ex-Westchester cop and convicted killer Nicholas Tartaglione, Epstein’s bunkmate at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan weeks before his death in August 2019, said the disgraced financier dished on the dirt-digging expedition after a confab with the feds. “He said, ‘When you were a cop, what do you know about proffers and cooperating?’ I said, ‘Jeff, it’s pretty simple, the prosecutors, you know, they caught a fish — you. They’re not...

The Federal Bureau of Investigation closed its Office of Diversity and Inclusion last month ahead of President-elect Donald Trump’s entry into the White House. The announcement comes as Trump and his allies have pledged to purge the diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) agenda from the federal government and military. “In recent weeks, the FBI took steps to close the Office of Diversity and Inclusion (ODI), effective by December 2024,” the federal agency said in a statement to Fox News, though it did not provide any additional information as to why it made the decision to close the office. The FBI’s...

The FBI has closed its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) office ... The decision follows growing criticism from Republican lawmakers. Earlier this month, Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) sent a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray, condemning what she described as “radical” DEI initiatives that she argued had “endangered” Americans, citing the New Year’s Day terrorist attack in New Orleans as an example. "While the facts surrounding this unconscionable attack continue to emerge, what we know is deeply troubling: the suspect was in possession of weapons, improvised explosive devices, and an ISIS flag. This horrific incident constitutes a blatant act of...

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO), during Pam Bondi's attorney general confirmation hearing, highlighted an often overlooked aspect of the Biden-Harris administration’s efforts to prosecute political opponents. Democrats grilled Bondi over suspicions that she would use her position to target President-elect Donald Trump’s enemies. Republicans smartly countered this by pointing out how the current administration has used the state to target Trump and his allies. However, Hawley focused on how Biden’s White House prosecuted Christians based on their religious beliefs. In the last four years, this administration has carried out an unprecedented attack and campaign against people of faith. If you look...

Mannina mentioned he worked for a “top consulting firm”, which the video states is Booz Allen Hamilton (BAH), one of the largest contractors for the United States government.

VIDEO"There's a First Amendment in this country," asserts James O'Keefe when confronting Jamie Mannina, former advisor to the Joint Chiefs of Staff at the Pentagon, former FBI Special Agent, and self-proclaimed “spy hunter,” after O'Keef eMedia released undercover footage showing Mannina admitting discussing plans with retired generals to ‘protect people from Trump.’When pressed by O’Keefe on his comments, Mannina became defensive, saying, "Get the f*** out of here," denying his statements by claiming, “I didn’t say anything,” despite O’Keefe presenting the video evidence."You’re on video saying these things," O’Keefe responded.
