Mike Pence may be despised by his own supporters, but it appears he has many admirers in left-wing circles. The former vice-president, who betrayed President Trump and the entire MAGA movement by refusing to challenge the widespread fraud that tainted the 2020 presidential results, collected the “John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award” on Sunday evening as recognition of his actions. Addressing the liberal audience, Pence described January 6th as a “tragic day” and took thinly veiled shots at the Trump administration. “Our institutions held that day, not because of any one person, but because leaders in both political parties,...

Show 15-17 Summary: This is one of those shows that took unexpected, fascinating turns. And it is not one to miss. We’d invited attorney Peter Ticktin, a life-long friend of President Trump, back on to discuss his lawsuit challenging the results of Florida Congressional District 14, where they found evidence of election fraud. Thousands of mail-in ballots may have been cast by modified duplicates buried in the voter rolls. Enough to overturn the results. Except that discussion turned into a deeper discussion about the Deep State and what really happened on January 6. Tune in to hear the actual, recorded...

Rep. Jamie Raskin threatened foreign leaders who “facilitated authoritarianism in our country” by currying favor with President Trump on issues like deportation — saying that Democrats will not “look kindly” on his supporters when they “come back to power.” Referencing El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele specifically, Raskin (D-Md.), 62, suggested that Dems should keep score of foreign leaders who brownnose Trump, 78, during his second term. “Implicit in it should be the idea that if and when we come back to power — and we will — we are not going to look kindly upon people who … facilitated authoritarianism...

Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) claimed Wednesday on CNN’s “News Central” ” that U.S. District Judge James Boasberg was a “great judicial hero” for finding probable cause to hold the Trump administration in criminal contempt for disobeying his order to halt deportations. Raskin said, “Judge Boasberg goes to great pains to restate the precedent going back to 1967, Walker vs. Birmingham, holding that you’ve got to comply with a court order, even if you know, they were in the wrong court, even if for some reason there’s a change. Look, Judge Boasberg, who was a President Bush appointee when he originally...

A member of the right-wing paramilitary group the Oath Keepers in the days leading up to the Jan. 6 Capitol riot proposed a plan to transport “heavy weapons” in a boat across the Potomac River, prosecutors said in a Thursday court filing. Federal prosecutors made the allegation in a memo opposing a motion for release from the attorneys of Thomas Edward Caldwell, who along with fellow Oath Keeper members Jessica Marie Watkins and Donovan Crowl faces conspiracy charges in connection with alleged plans to lead a coup ahead of the deadly pro-Trump mob attack. Days before the attack, prosecutors in...

Democrats were working with Ukraine as well as US militants (AntiFa, BLM) to stop the January 6th presentation of election fraud evidence on Donald Trump’s behalf. How far did that cooperation to destroy Donald Trump go? At the end of the article, I’ll clearly lay out AntiFa’s long relationship to Ukraine’s violent neo-Nazi groups. In Ukraine, what the world labels “neo-Nazi” are official Antifa groups. There is both direct and circumstantial evidence Ukrainian nationalists working with AntiFa were the violent parties that attacked Capitol police on January 6th. The circumstantial evidence raises big questions. The direct evidence is Pravy Sektor’s...

US government is set to return nearly $63,000 to infamous J6er John Sullivan, who also goes by Jayden X. Sullivan reportedly made the money from his filming of the protests and rioting that day. ... Antifa-BLM organizer John Sullivan was sentenced in April 2024 to six years in prison for his actions on January 6, 2021, at the US Capitol. Antifa-Insurgence leader John Earl Sullivan was arrested in Utah after the US Capitol riots. As reported previously, Antifa protester John Sullivan was caught on video posing as a Trump supporter during the rioting at the US Capitol on January 6th....

ᑕᗩ乙✓ @Paul_RevereJr Also, groups of what appear to be trump supporters roaming the halls of the capital well before the breach! Lara Logan✓ @laralogan Release the evidence & charge those responsible. These tapes belong to the American people. Lara Logan✓ @laralogan This was my interview. No one has been held responsible for this set-up. If that does not happen, they will continue to get away with treason & sedition. @Chicago1Ray 🇺🇸✓ @Chicago1Ray We have evidence of metro police and Capitol police entering rooms in uniform and coming out as Trump supporters People have to go to jail for what they...

During J6, as the FBI's Domestic Terrorism Section Chief, Jensen ran daily nationwide J6 calls, saying: "I don't give a blank, they're ***damn terrorists and we're gonna round them all up." Jensen also led the monitoring of School Board Meetings to identify parents as potential terror threats.

I am looking for links to original videos/photos from inside the capital building when Ashli Babbitt was shot. Not outside in the hallway (which are easily available) but inside the room showing the barricades. Specifically I want to see several 'claims' are true: 1. That Senators/Congress people were in the room and they had to be protected. Frequently quoted as justification for shooting. 2. That the Shooter (Michael Byrd) was alone (not with other security near the door) and he warned people not to come through. 3. Actual videos of the glass and doors being broken before Ashli Babbitt tried...

At this point, the left isn’t even trying to hide their lawfare. Judge James Boasberg—the Deep State loyalist and rent-a-gavel—has now been handed his fourth Trump-related case. ... And we’re supposed to believe that this is just a coincidence? No. The left’s shameless weaponization of the judiciary has moved from subtle plots and plans to straight-up Soviet Union-type chess moves. Judge Boasberg is no longer pretending to be impartial—he’s the go-to hitman for the Deep State regime, and he’s happily rubber-stamping whatever political prosecution the DC Swamp throws his way. And these power players couldn’t care less that the American...

ames Boasberg isn’t just some random DC judge—he’s the Deep State’s go-to gavel. He’s a loyal foot soldier in the left’s lawfare machine. When the Swamp needs a ruling to punish the right and protect their own, Boasberg always delivers. And nowhere is that more obvious than in the case of the very mysterious character Ray Epps. ..... So, the guy who helped lead the charge on January 6 and who, for years, somehow avoided the DOJ’s obsession with J6 prosecutions while grandmas and peaceful protesters were hunted down and dragged through the mud ended up getting the lightest slap...

In Feb 2021, then DC chief judge Beryl Howell created a special framework for judges to use in determining pre trial detention for J6ers—meaning keep them behind bars awaiting trial.. What became known as the “Chrestman factors” turned due process and standard bail rules on their head. Even nonviolent J6ers charged with conspiracy or obstruction with no criminal record could be held in a federal prison—often hauled cross country to the DC gulag—because as part of the “mob that attacked the Capitol,” they represented a danger to their community. A J6er’s release was not considered on a case by case...

James Boasberg isn’t just some random DC judge—he’s the Deep State’s go-to gavel. He’s a loyal foot soldier in the left’s lawfare machine. When the Swamp needs a ruling to punish the right and protect their own, Boasberg always delivers. And nowhere is that more obvious than in the case of the very mysterious character Ray Epps. ... After Epps was finally charged—with a single count of disorderly conduct—he was rewarded with a wrist slap from Boasberg: one year of probation. No jail. No lectures. No talk about mobs or responsibility. Just a quiet walk out the back door.....

Julie Kelly 🇺🇸 @julie_kelly2 Yesterday Biden appointee Jia Cobb granted Norm Eisen/Mark Zaid request for expedited discovery in their lawsuit against Trump adm over inquiry of FBI employees who worked on Jan 6 cases. So another judge now decides these partisan lawfare thugs are entitled to info about the internal workings of the White House and DOJ. 10:26 AM · Mar 23, 2025

A former US Attorney who served under President Joe Biden was found dead Saturday morning at her home in Alexandria, Virginia. Jessica D. Aber, 43, stepped down on January 20 after being appointed to one of the most high-profile federal prosecutorial posts in the country by Joe Biden. She assumed the role as the top prosecutor for the Eastern District of Virginia in 2021. Alexandria police confirmed that officers responded to a call early on Saturday morning but are withholding further information pending notification of Aber's family. No cause of death has yet been released. Aber, a longtime federal prosecutor,...

A liberal activist and organizer coordinated with reporters from the conservative news site Breitbart during the primaries to cover his disruptions of events for candidates such as Sen. Marco Rubio. Aaron Black, an associate with Democracy Partners and a former Occupy Wall Street organizer, worked with the pro-Trump site Breitbart, tipping it off about his stunts, exchanging raw video and coordinating coverage, according to a source with direct knowledge of the situation. Black has resurfaced recently as one of the people featured in undercover video from the Project Veritas group. In the video, he claims to work for the Democratic...

Jack Posobiec spoke with investigative journalist Julie Kelly about why the wife of the US attorney for Washington, DC, Matthew Graves, has had an "all-access" pass to the White House, despite President Joe Biden insisting that the White House and Justice Department are completely separate entitites. Graves refused to allow Hunter Biden to be prosecuted in his district, according to IRS whistleblower Gary Shapely. (snip) "According to that IRS whistleblower, Matthew Graves made that decision in March of 2022. That month, according to White House visitor logs, his wife visited the White House five times. Is she discussing this criminal...

Blaze News’ Steve Baker exposes Aaron Black, who he has dubbed “Pelosi’s precious,” for allegedly lying about his role at the Capitol on January 6, 2021. Did Black, known to associates as Nancy Pelosi’s “fixer,” orchestrate agitators at the riot and skew the narrative to benefit Democrats? And did he lie about his presence at the Capitol during the riot? Baker joins Glenn Beck (‪@glennbeck‬) to break down the findings recorded in a Blaze News exclusive report, including Black’s history of fomenting unrest using CIA-style color revolution tactics and his deep connections to Pelosi.

Well, looks like another Deep State darling is biting the dust. This time, it’s Capitol Police Chief Thomas Manger—and let’s just say, the timing is more than a little suspicious. ... Chief J. Thomas Manger will retire from the U.S. Capitol Police on May 2, his office announced Tuesday. […] Manger’s four years on the Hill weren’t without incident. In January, a man managed to slip a handgun past security while on a Capitol tour. The incident provoked bipartisan condemnation from House Administration Chair Bryan Steil, R-Wis., and ranking member Joseph D. Morelle, D-N.Y. “The USCP has requested a nearly...
