UPDATE: A formal letter has just been sent to Secret Service Director Sean Curran and FBI Director Kash Patel, calling for an immediate joint investigation into James Comey after he posted a disturbing message on social media using the phrase “86” in reference to President Trump. That term is widely understood to mean kill or eliminate. The letter demands a full probe into potential violations of federal law, including 18 U.S.C. § 871 (threats against the President) and 18 U.S.C. § 875 (interstate threats). It also presses for answers on whether Comey still holds a security clearance or has access...

President Donald Trump is reportedly set to receive a lavish Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet from Qatar’s royal family. The nearly brand-new aircraft, originally commissioned by Qatari royals, will be temporarily used as Air Force One during Trump’s second term and then donated to the Trump Presidential Library Foundation upon the conclusion of his presidency, according to sources familiar with the arrangement who spoke to ABC News. The aircraft, which has flown only a handful of times, is estimated to be worth upwards of $400 million and features gold-plated fixtures, private suites, and luxury lounges fit for royalty. President Trump reportedly...

In what may be the most valuable gift ever extended to the United States from a foreign government, the Trump administration is preparing to accept a super luxury Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet from the royal family of Qatar -- a gift that is to be available for use by President Donald Trump as the new Air Force One until shortly before he leaves office, at which time ownership of the plane will be transferred to the Trump presidential library foundation, sources familiar with the proposed arrangement told ABC News. The gift is expected to be announced next week, when Trump...

The O’Keefe Media Group on Thursday released undercover video of US Attorney General Pam Bondi revealing previously undisclosed information about Jeffrey Epstein. In an April 28 recording Pam Bondi revealed to a stranger in a DC restaurant that there are ‘tens of thousands of videos of little kids’ for the FBI to comb through.

Attorney General Pam Bondi on Wednesday explained the delay in releasing files on billionaire and child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. President Donald Trump on the campaign trail repeatedly promised to release the Epstein Files, including the rumored list of clients with whom the billionaire trafficked children. So far, there has been no substantive release of information about the child abuser’s crimes. While speaking with reporters, Bondi was asked whether the files would ever get released. “It’s just the volume,” Bondi answered. “That’s what they’re going through right now.” Bondi further stated that the FBI is combing through “tens of thousands...

On Tuesday, Attorney General Pamela Bondi held a press conference announcing a week-long, multi-agency and multi-law enforcement and tribal operation headed by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and the New Mexico District Attorney’s Office. The operation resulted in huge drug busts and multiple arrests of high-level members of the Sinaloa cartel. According to Bondi, the agents garnered 11.5 kilos of fentanyl, including three million fentanyl pills — the largest seizure in the nation's history. The main head of the Sinaloa cartel, Alberto Salazar Amaya, was arrested along with five others, all in the country illegally. Amaya was arrested in Salem,...

Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson 🚨Rep. James Comer Drops Epstein File BOMBSHELL: The Files Have Been Destroyed, Doesn't Think Pam Bondi and Kash Patel Have Them, "I Warned Them.": "They ordered the release.. Haven't been released. They are in there shredding documents. The government is involved.." 1:35 PM · May 6, 2025

The White House admitted it has “no specific timeline” for releasing the remaining Jeffrey Epstein files. .... Snip.... During last week’s White House press briefing, O’Handley directly questioned Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on when the remaining Epstein materials would be released or whether any arrests were imminent. O’Handley: My question is about the Epstein files. A couple of months ago, the DOJ released what they called Phase 1 of the Epstein files, and they announced that a lot of those files—the remaining files, probably the bulk of the files—were actually in the New York field office. They requested that they...

The Trump administration has seized over 22 million fentanyl-laced pills since he took office in January, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced this week. “Today is Fentanyl Awareness Day,” Bondi wrote on the X platform on Tuesday. “In President Trump’s first 100 days, we’ve seized over 22 million fentanyl-laced pills, saving over 119 million lives.” “We are fighting relentlessly for the families of loved ones lost, for those whose lives are at risk, and for the soul of our nation. ”We will not rest until this poison is off our streets and those peddling it are behind bars.”

A federal judge on Wednesday barred the Department of Homeland Security from transferring illegal aliens to other agencies like the Department of Defense. US District Judge Brian Murphy, a Biden appointee, said the Trump Administration’s DHS cannot transfer aliens to other agencies as a way to prevent them from receiving ‘due process.’ “[After] taking custody of an alien, Defendants may not cede custody or control in any manner that prevents an alien from receiving the due-process guarantees…” the judge wrote.

Epstein survivor Juliette Rose Bryant is speaking out — and she’s making it very clear: If anything happens to her, it is not suicide. The South African native, who claims she was kidnapped by Epstein 20 years ago after meeting him alongside former President Bill Clinton, is demanding a full investigation into any potential harm that may befall her, especially in the wake of fellow Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre’s reported “suicide.” ..... Snip..... Bryant reposted a video she originally shared two years ago after the death of Jeffrey Epstein victim Carolyn Adriano, who testified against Maxwell. Carolyn Andriano was found...

President Trump on Sunday called for the person or persons who operated Joe Biden’s autopen to be jailed. “Hopefully ACTBLUE, the Democrats ILLEGAL SCAM used to raise money, including from not allowed “foreign contributions,” is being looked at by authorities. The Dems only know how to win by CHEATING, something which they do better than any group or party in history. But now, with their terrible policies and candidates, and with people like Crooked Adam Schiff, who demanded a full Pardon from Sleepy Joe, leading the way, it is almost impossible to reach their money goals. The USA is wise...

'ActBlue has become notorious for its lax standards that enable unverified and fraudulent donations.' President Donald Trump is reportedly expected to sign a memorandum on Thursday directing the Department of Justice to open an investigation into the Democratic fundraising powerhouse ActBlue. A fact sheet on the memo was obtained by several news outlets, directing Attorney General Pam Bondi to "investigate and take appropriate action concerning allegations regarding the use of online fundraising platforms to make 'straw' or 'dummy' contributions and to make foreign contributions to U.S. political candidates and committees, all of which break the law." The fact sheet reportedly...

Judge Paula Xinis postponed discovery in Kilmar Abrego Garcia for one week in response to the Trump Administration’s request for a delay. The judge did not give a reason for her decision to postpone the discovery. “The Court has reviewed Defendants’ Motion to Stay and Plaintiffs’ Response. With the agreement of parties, the Court hereby ORDERS that discovery shall be stayed until April 30, 2025, at 5:00 PM,” the judge wrote.

BOTTOM LINE: Garcia isn’t a ‘Maryland man,’ he’s a member of MS-13 and an illegal, who is now back in his native country of El Salvador where he belongs. On Wednesday, Attorney General Pam Bondi released police records showing Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, the “Maryland man” who was deported to his native El Salvador by the Trump administration, was in fact a member of MS-13 and was in the United States illegally.Contrary to the assertions of Garcia’s lawyers (and many in the corporate press) that there’s no evidence he’s a member of MS-13 and that the cops just made it...

As noted by Politico, within the ruling Boasberg goes on to say: …”if the administration doesn’t rectify the issue, the judge said he may require administration officials to testify under oath so that he can identify the specific individuals responsible for violating his order. He would then request that those individuals be prosecuted. The judge signaled he could appoint an outside lawyer to prosecute the contempt case if the Justice Department declines to do so.” (link) I think we all know the very select group of “beach friend” people whom Boasberg would lean toward in appointing someone to prosecute Pam...

New damning details have emerged regarding an alleged MS-13 gangster from El Salvador that the corporate media affectionately calls a “Maryland man.” ...... Snip...... The new information revealed by the document should put to rest any doubt that Abrego Garcia is nothing more than a violent and prominent member of one of the most brutal gangs on Earth. Per the document, here are the details: 1. When Garcia was arrested in March 2019, he and three of his cronies were found in possession of marijuana and discarded several other items at the scene. As Det. –approached the individuals, two of...

New York Attorney General Letitia James was hit with a federal criminal referral for instances of alleged mortgage fraud on Tuesday, according to a letter obtained by The Post. Federal Housing FHFA Director William Pulte sent the missive to Attorney General Pam Bondi and Deputy AG Todd Blanche, alleging that James had “falsified records” to get home loans for a property in Virginia that she claimed was her “principal residence” in 2023 — while still serving as a New York state prosecutor. In February 2001, James also purchased a five-family dwelling in Brooklyn — but has “consistently misrepresented the same...

Judge Paula Xinis is setting the stage to hold Trump officials in contempt. Attorneys for Kilmar Abrego Garcia demanded the Trump Administration ‘comply’ with the Supreme Court order and release the MS-13 gang member from the CECOT prison. In a new court filing on Tuesday Abrego Garcia’s attorneys said the Trump Administration has to at least request his release from the CECOT prison and help ‘facilitate’ his return from El Salvador. The attorneys said, “There is no evidence that anyone has requested the release of Abrego Garcia.”

Attorney General Pam Bondi confirmed on Monday that an arrest has been made in connection to a firebombing of a New Mexico Tesla dealership and a subsequent attack on the New Mexico Republican Party headquarters. “BREAKING: We have made an arrest in connection to the February firebombing of a New Mexico Tesla dealership and the March attack on the New Mexico Republican Party Headquarters,” Bondi said in the announcement. “We will be prosecuting to the fullest extent of the law. We are seeking up to 40 years in prison — no negotiating. Outstanding work by @FBI, @ATF, and @USAO_NM!” she...
