Matthew Graves, the now-resigned U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, leaves behind a legacy of corruption, partisanship, and a weaponized Department of Justice (DOJ). His tenure, marked by the targeting of President Trump, his allies, and everyday conservatives, has drawn widespread condemnation. Graves’ resignation comes as the incoming Trump administration, led by Attorney General Pam Bondi, prepares to hold rogue officials accountable for their abuses of power. Graves is not stepping aside with dignity—he’s running from the justice he knows awaits him

[AG] Merrick B. Garland is the public face of the government’s unprecedented effort to identify, arrest, and prosecute those connected to the Jan. 6, 2021 protest at the Capitol. But the person handling the day-to-day management of the one of the largest and most politically freighted efforts in the history of American law enforcement has largely flown under the radar: Matthew Graves, the U.S. attorney for [DC]. [snip] The political nature of the [Jan6] prosecutions is illustrated by the long partisan history of Graves and his wife, Fatima Goss Graves. According to documents on file with the U.S. Senate, Matthew...

On Monday, U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Matthew Graves announced his resignation. In a statement, Graves outlined that he will step down from his position at the Justice Department on January 16, just days before President-elect Trump takes office, and is expected to issue pardons for many January 6 defendants. For many conservatives, this decision couldn’t have come soon enough. Graves, a key figure in the DOJ's aggressive prosecutions of the January 6 defendants, leaves behind a controversial legacy that many conservatives argue epitomizes the weaponization of the DOJ against political dissent.

Kamala Harris has strong ties to U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Matthew Graves and his activist wife. Which is why a Harris Department of Justice could be more dangerous than Biden's DOJ. Democrats ended their four-day convention on Thursday with a vacuous speech by the party’s installed candidate, Kamala Harris. Her short stint on the main stage made the regime media, which has blessed her with 84 percent positive news coverage since the Pelosi coup according to one analysis, drunk with joy. Harris, like the roster of speakers before her, spent most of the speech demonizing her general...

Maya Harris, Kamala’s sister, a radical ACLU activist, ran her 2020 presidential campaign. Maya’s husband, Tony West, who formerly served as the lawyer for John Walker Lindh, the American Taliban, is playing a major role in her current presidential campaign. Meena Harris, Maya’s daughter (but not West’s daughter), who is very close to Kamala, has tweeted in support of the pro-Hamas encampments and spread false claims of atrocities against Israel. All of this provides a certain amount of background about Kamala’s views from some of the most important people in her life who have also served as close advisers to...

Vice President Kamala Harris condemned demonstrators who voiced support for Hamas and burned an American flag near the U.S. Capitol to protest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's address to Congress on Wednesday, saying in a statement that "hate and violence of any kind have no place in our nation." Harris, now the likely Democratic nominee for president after President Biden dropped his reelection bid, denounced the protesters who engaged in "despicable acts" and "dangerous hate-fueled rhetoric." "I condemn any individuals associating with the brutal terrorist organization Hamas, which has vowed to annihilate the State of Israel and kill Jews. Pro-Hamas...

Vice President Kamala Harris's most controversial family member continues to post her thoughts on social media. Meena Harris, who makes money selling woke children's books and Dr. Anthony Fauci coffee mugs for $52 a pop, weighed in on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, equating the Palestinian cause with that of LGBT and women's rights advocates. "One cannot advocate for racial equality, LGBT & women's rights, condemn corrupt & abusive regimes and other injustices yet choose to ignore the Palestinian oppression," Meena Harris wrote in an Instagram post. "If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the...

Kamala Harris' niece has raised eyebrows with an Instagram post urging people who care about LGBT rights and women's issues to defend Palestine - despite the country's rulers being among the most repressive in the world. Meena Harris, a 36-year-old lawyer and businesswoman, on Wednesday night shared her opinions, re-posting a widely-shared image discussing the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine. Harris has, in the four months since her mother's sister became vice president, managed several times to ruffle feathers in the White House - both with her new clothing brand, that Biden administration lawyers told her came too close...

Vice President Kamala Harris’ niece is under fire for presuming the gunman in Monday’s Colorado mass shooting was white — because he was taken into custody alive. “The Atlanta shooting was not even a week ago,” Meena Harris wrote in a since-deleted tweet, Fox News reported Tuesday. “VIolent white men are the greatest terrorist threat to our country,” she wrote.

Meena Harris is Kamala Harris’ niece. So we weren’t entirely surprised to see her jump on the ‘white man bad and evil’ bandwagon exploiting the tragic shooting at a King Soopers in Boulder, CO on Monday afternoon. She tweeted this … The Atlanta shooting was not even a week ago. Violent white men are the greatest terrorist threat to our country. — Meena Harris (@meenaharris) March 22, 2021 Oops, she deleted it. Probably because the gunman’s name is Ahmad, which is not exactly the Jim Bob she and the rest of the vultures on the Left were hoping for so...

Kamala Harris' niece has told how her partner gave up his high-flying tech job in San Francisco to be a stay-at-home father to their two daughters, and free her to write feminist children's books and run her business. Meena Harris, 36, told The Times how Nikolas Ajagu, who she met while working in the tech industry, decided he wanted to be a full-time father to Amara, four, and two-year-old Leela. Ajagu left his job as the Global Head of Partnerships at Facebook to raise their children, she told the paper. It was unclear if he has since returned: his LinkedIn...

On February 26, 2018, Black Lives Matter cofounder Alicia Garza launched the Black Futures Fund, which discloses on its donations page that “Black Futures Lab is a fiscally sponsored project of the Chinese Progressive Association”. The CPA, active in areas such as San Francisco and Boston, has long and deep ties to Chinese Maoist activity in the United States. Cofounder and board chair emeritus Pam Tau Lee was active during her student days at Cal State Hayward and Berkeley with the I Wor Kuen, a Chinese Maoist counterpart of the Black Panthers which merged with the Red Guard Party, a...
