CIA Director John Ratcliffe told the press that officials from the Barack Obama administration—including former CIA chief John Brennan and FBI Director James Comey—may be charged for their role in Russiagate, the spy operation designed to topple the first Donald Trump administration. With FBI Director Kash Patel reportedly overseeing a criminal conspiracy case involving Brennan, Comey, and others, there’s reason for optimism that those who targeted the president, his aides, and supporters from 2016 to 2024 will finally be held accountable. Naturally, those with the most to lose, such as former Obama officials implicated in the biggest political scandal in...

EXCLUSIVE: FBI Director Kash Patel found a trove of sensitive documents related to the origins of the Trump–Russia probe buried in multiple "burn bags" in a secret room inside the bureau, sources familiar with the incident told Fox News Digital.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Chairman Rick Crawford (R-AR) have dropped a political nuke on Washington: Smoking-gun thumb drives containing unreviewed evidence in the Hillary Clinton email scandal have been sitting in an FBI office collecting dust for over SIX YEARS. The letter, addressed directly to FBI Director Kash Patel, demands that the unevaluated materials — which include sensitive intelligence, foreign communications, and damning evidence related to the Clinton Foundation and Barack Obama — be immediately reviewed and exposed to the American people. “Thumb drives containing unreviewed info on the Clinton...

The director of national intelligence gave the Justice Department little warning before she demanded an investigation. President Trump made clear this week that Tulsi Gabbard was back in his good graces. A few weeks ago, Mr. Trump excoriated Ms. Gabbard, one of his top intelligence officials, over a video she filmed during a trip to Asia that he saw as self-promotional, and she was left out of some meetings in the lead-up to the U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, according to two people with knowledge of what happened. But on Tuesday...

Former DNI James Clapper Says He Has Concerns That He'll Be Prosecuted for His Role in the Russia Collusion Hoax

FIRST ON FOX: A $250 million fraud scheme that exploited a federally funded children's nutrition program during the COVID-19 pandemic has been described by FBI Director Kash Patel as "one of the worst" in Minnesota history. The FBI director told Fox News in a statement that 70 people in Minnesota have been indicted for their role in the sprawling "Feeding our Future" fraud scheme during the COVID-19 pandemic, which exploited a federal program designed to reimburse states for the cost of feeding children. Conspirators falsely claimed to have served millions of meals during the pandemic, but instead used the money...

I have been speaking to Coca-Cola about using REAL Cane Sugar in Coke in the United States, and they have agreed to do so. I’d like to thank all of those in authority at Coca-Cola. This will be a very good move by them — You’ll see. It’s just better!

According to analysis conducted by two different forensic experts working with WIRED, at least 3 minutes were cut from the “raw” Epstein prison video posted to the DOJ website last week. The Gateway Pundit was the first to report that an entire minute was cut from the DOJ video that was released last Sunday. If you follow the full video you can see for yourself that the video is cut off at 11:59:00 and there is a ‘missing minute.’ During the White House Cabinet meeting last Tuesday, AG Pam Bondi was asked about the missing clip in the Epstein video....

🚨EXCLUSIVE: Lara Trump says the Trump administration Will Release more Epstein Evidence and Will Have More Transparency. She says that President Trump Hears the Base on this Issue and knows how "Important" it is and Trump will "set things right." "There needs to be more transparency. I think that will happen. I know this is important to the President. He is frustrated." "He is going to want to set things right. I believe there will be more coming and anything they are able to release they will try to get out. They hear it and understand it." "To anyone worked...

A day after a leaks war played out in the media over the (mis)handling of the Epstein files by Attorney General Pan Bondi that started with reports that a disgruntled Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino had not come to work on Friday and featured rumors of threatened resignations and demands for her firing, FBI Director Kash Patel finally spoke out about the controversy. Patel’s comment, posted to his personal X account, will not put the matter to rest, but his statement on his tenure as FBI director is pretty definitive: “The conspiracy theories just aren’t true, never have been. It’s...

A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit filed against the U.S. federal government has revealed that the Department of Justice (DOJ) is still secretly investigating the Jeffrey Epstein case, despite claims to the contrary. Despite previous denials and public statements suggesting the Epstein case had been closed, federal court filings now confirm that the DOJ and the FBI are actively continuing their investigation. The federal investigation includes reviewing documents related to Epstein’s network of associates and clients. The revelation came in a July 7 joint status report filed in response to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit from government...

The White House released a statement on the Bondi, Bongino clash on Friday afternoon. Earlier Friday it was reported that FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino took a day off from work after a clash with Attorney General Pam Bondi over the handling of the Epstein files. The blowup between Bondi and Bongino happened after the FBI, DOJ released a 2-page memo on Sunday concluding Jeffrey Epstein did not have a “client list” and that he committed suicide. “Bongino did not report to work Friday amid speculation about his whereabouts, said a source familiar with the perspectives of DOJ leaders who...

FBI deputy director Dan Bongino took a day off from work Friday after clashing at the White House with Attorney General Pam Bondi over their handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files, four sources familiar with the conflict told Axios. Why it matters: The dispute erupted Wednesday amid the fallout of the administration walking back its claims about Epstein by determining the convicted sex offender didn't have a celebrity "client list," and that he wasn't murdered in his New York City prison cell in 2019. Bongino didn't come to work Friday, leading some insiders to believe he had quit. But administration...

On Tuesday, President Trump took umbrage at a question about the Justice Department’s assertion that there are no Epstein tapes, there is no client list, and there is nothing more to be released. The Twitterverse has been brutal towards AG Pam Bondi, FBI Director Kash Patel, and his #2, Dan Bongino. Many people were saying they felt betrayed, given the fact that, before the election, we were told that the files would be released and the criminals held to account. The president has a point. There is a lot going on in Washington. There are natural disasters with dozens dead...

Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson 🚨WATCH: CNN’s Jake Tapper says the Epstein case is NOT closed and there’s a trove of evidence being hidden from the public. He then demands it all be released: “There's a trove of information that the Trump administration is right now refusing to share, information that could well point to the powerful folks who availed themselves of the sex trafficking victims of Jeffrey Epstein.” “So, while there may not be an official client list to be released.. There's a lot of extra information that is not being made public.. This isn't going to go away. The public…...

The Wall Street Journal welcomed FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino to the “rotten establishment” in a new editorial about the ongoing MAGA civil war over the Trump administration’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case. On Sunday night, a Department of Justice and FBI memo concluding that Epstein did, in fact, commit suicide and there was “no incriminating ‘client list'” or “credible evidence … that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals” was reported on by Axios to the dismay of many of President Donald Trump’s biggest fans. “I’m going to go throw up actually. And this only happens every...

Mike Benz is asking the right questions..

On Sunday night AXIOS reported on a new FBI, DOJ memo obtained by Axios concludes Jeffrey Epstein did not have a client list that he used for blackmail. The FBI earlier determined that Epstein did commit suicide in August 2019. And the DOJ-FBI also released a 10-hour video on Sunday from outside Jeffrey Epstein’s jail cell. But now we can confirm that an entire minute was cut from the DOJ video that was released last night. Why? What are they hiding? If you follow the full video you can see for yourself that the video is cut off at 11:59:00....
