On Thursday, Chairman of the Board of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, Bill Pulte, said Fed Chair Jerome Powell may be criminally referred to the Justice Department for alleged perjury about the $2.5 billion building renovation plan. “I am told by very reliable Congressional sources that there may be a criminal referral coming from one or more Congress members to the DOJ for Jay Powell’s alleged perjury about the $2.5BN building,” Pulte said on X.

Internal FBI emails reveal that rogue agents and prosecutors in the Biden DOJ were looking for ways to pile on new criminal charges against Donald Trump over the Jan. 6 Capitol riot — this time over his involvement with the J6 prisoner choir, based on a single partisan news article. The 2023 emails obtained by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley and revealed exclusively to The Post, are an example of the nitpicking malice of anti-Trump lawfare that tainted special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation, during Joe Biden’s presidency. “Can we do some work to nail down Trump’s role in this,”...

The stunning downward spiral of Michael Madigan’s political career ended Friday with a 7 1/2-year prison sentence and a $2.5 million fine for the former Illinois House speaker and the longest-serving legislative leader in U.S. history after he was convicted of trading legislation for the enrichment of his friends and allies. U.S. District Judge John Robert Blakey sentenced the 83-year-old in U.S. District Court in Chicago. Nicknamed the “Velvet Hammer” for his quiet but hard-nosed style, Madigan was convicted in February on 10 of 23 counts in a remarkable corruption trial that lasted four months. The case churned through 60...

Rep. Kaohly Vang Her’s remarks on the Minnesota House floor have sparked intense debate. During a legislative session on MinnesotaCare eligibility for undocumented immigrants, she revealed that her family entered the United States illegally. Her stated that her father altered immigration paperwork to secure their entry, a revelation that immediately drew scrutiny. Her’s statement, “I am illegal in this country.

Senator Chuck Grassley on Wednesday released a newly declassified document proving Fusion GPS contractor Nellie Ohr lied to Congress about her involvement in Russiagate. Last month Grassley asked FBI Director Kash Patel to declassify the FBI’s analysis of Nellie Ohr’s criminal referral after she lied to Congress.

Nellie Ohr, wife of fired DOJ official Bruce Ohr was criminally referred to the Justice Department in 2019 by House Republicans after hundreds of new emails surfaced, contradicting her previous statements to...

DNI (Director of National Intelligence) Tulsi Gabbard dropped a bombshell during an interview this week with Megyn Kelly, and former NIH Director Anthony Fauci should be worried. Gabbard appeared with Kelly to discuss a variety of issues on investigating leaks from within the administration, whether she would run for president (she did not rule it out), and the origin of the COVID-19 pandemic. When the issue regarding COVID-19 came up, Gabbard had plenty of interesting news to share.

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered: Section 1. Purpose. The dishonest and dangerous activity of the law firm Perkins Coie LLP (“Perkins Coie”) has affected this country for decades. Notably, in 2016 while representing failed Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, Perkins Coie hired Fusion GPS, which then manufactured a false “dossier” designed to steal an election. This egregious activity is part of a pattern. Perkins Coie has worked with activist donors including George Soros to judicially overturn popular, necessary, and democratically enacted election...

Liz Cheney threatened Donald Trump's incoming Department of Justice on Monday, claiming that any move to investigate the now-defunct January 6th committee would be "sanctionable conduct." The statement, put out in response to Trump's recent "Meet the Press" interview, also denied allegations that she and her colleagues destroyed evidence. While speaking to NBC News' Kristen Welker, the president-elect said the following. “Cheney did something that’s inexcusable, along with Thompson and the people on the un-select committee of political thugs and, you know, creeps,” the President-elect said, referring to Mississippi Rep. Bennie G. Thompson (the committee’s chairman). “They deleted and destroyed...

District Judge Kevin Mullins, who was gunned down in his own chambers by former Sheriff Shawn “Mickey” Stines, is now at the center of shocking allegations that his courthouse was operated like a “brothel.” The revelation comes from police recordings obtained by NewsNation’s Banfield, exposing a web of abuse of power, sexual exploitation, and a justice system gone rogue. Audio recordings from the investigation into former Deputy Ben Fields, who was convicted of rape, sodomy, and perjury, have revealed chilling details of a sex-for-favors scheme that allegedly involved Judge Mullins. The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Sheriff Stines was deposed...

Between 50,000 to 65,000 illegals have voted in Oregon's elections. In the 2024 election cycle in Oregon, we have seen a total failure of any sense of fair, transparent, honest elections. We have a system that relies on “self-attestation” to provide election security. According to different sources, we have somewhere around 20 million illegal immigrants in this country who have crossed the border, breaking the laws of the United States. Yet, in Oregon, the Secretary of State, DMV officials, and all those involved in elections, like county clerks, expect these illegal immigrants and other miscreants to tell the truth and...
