The most famous structure and institution that bears its name, the Kennedy Center, is now being run on an interim basis by Richard Grenell, one of the Trump’s closest allies. And when it gets reformed, who’ll be one of the first acts playing there? According to Steve Bannon’s speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Thursday, it’ll be the J6 Prison Choir. The group, which is comprised of men who spent time behind bars for their roles in the Jan. 6. 2021 Capitol incursion, has been invited to the Kennedy Center by Grenell, according to Bannon.

Donald Trump’s special envoy yesterday publicly slapped down Nato’s chief over the idea that Ukraine could be admitted to the alliance. Richard Grenell told secretary-general Mark Rutte he would ‘run into a big buzz saw in America’ if, as Mr Rutte suggested, he tried to make it happen. The spat broke out during an annual Ukraine breakfast on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos.

President-elect Donald Trump is considering Keith Kellogg, a retired lieutenant general who has presented him with a plan to end the war in Ukraine, to serve as a special envoy for the conflict, according to three sources with knowledge of the matter. Kellogg, who was the chief of staff for the White House National Security Council during Trump's 2017-2021 term and national security adviser to then-Vice President Mike Pence, would likely play a central role in attempting to resolve the conflict if he is selected. Kellogg's plan for ending the war, which began when Russia invaded Ukrainian sovereign territory, involves...

Dana Bash was none too impressed after she interviewed Kamala Harris and her Emotional Support Governor, Tim Walz. We suppose even she couldn't argue with the fact that out of 41 minutes all they could use was a whopping 18 minutes. Hard to claim the interview went well when Americans saw it and could tell differently. But still, this is surprisingly honest from Bash, watch: The post continues: 'Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me' should be the approach of the American people towards the Biden-Harris administration. Wow. Sounds like Dana is more than willing...

@RichardGrenell This is yet another war that wouldn’t be happening if Donald Trump were president. Trump 2024.

For nearly four years, Washington foreign policy experts and Obama administration alumni warned that the Trump administration was jeopardizing any prospects for Middle East peace. By withdrawing from the Iran nuclear deal, we were told, the U.S. would alienate itself from its allies. By moving the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem, it would inflame the anger of millions of Arab Muslims. By recognizing Israeli sovereignty in the Golan Heights, it would estrange the Arab states. By maintaining close relations with the Israeli government, it would imperil the lives of Palestinians. With such a grim record of prediction, Thursday’s historic announcement that...

Former US Ambassador to Germany Richard Grenell Explains How Jack Smith Nearly Rekindled Conflict in the Balkans to Get Trump Richard Grenell was one of the Donald Trump administration’s brightest stars.

Former Deputy Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Cliff Sims on Monday ripped Politico for publishing a “fake headline” that claimed the “Biden admin offers to brief Trump officials on past Chinese spy balloon incursions.” To distract from President Joe Biden’s hesitation to shoot down the Chinese spy balloon until it crossed the continental United States, the establishment media has claimed in recent days that at least three Chinese spy balloons flew over U.S. airspace during the Trump administration. Former Trump administration officials have denied those claims. The Politico article from Sunday alleged the “Biden administration is willing to brief former...

One of the former CIA officers who signed a letter claiming stories about a laptop allegedly belonging to Hunter Biden were disinformation says he helped swing the 2020 election from former President Donald Trump. “I take special pride in personally swinging the election away from Trump,” John Sipher, who served for decades as a senior operations officer at the CIA, wrote in a recent post on Twitter. “I lost the election for Trump? Well then I fell [sic] pretty good about my influence,” he also wrote. Sipher and 50 other former U.S. intelligence officials signed the letter on Oct. 19,...

A former CIA officer recently took to Twitter to gleefully boast about how he took a “special pride” in his efforts to discredit the Hunter Biden laptop story as being part and parcel of Russian disinformation aided in “swinging” the 2020 election “away from Trump.” The comments coming from this ex-CIA officer, John Sipher, stem from a back-and-forth between him and former Trump White House official Richard Grenell over the Hunter laptop discrediting efforts. Sipher was one of many so-called intelligence experts who slapped their name and reputation on alleging that the Hunter Biden laptop story from the New York...

The former head of US intelligence blasted one of the officials who signed the letter casting doubt on Hunter Biden’s laptop - calling him a lying “phony” and igniting a Twitter war over the weekend. The spat erupted Saturday when Richard Grenell, the former Trump-appointed acting director of national intelligence, reacted to a post from John Sipher, who retired from the CIA in 2014, about ethical behavior among public servants. “Didn’t @john_sipher sign a letter 3 weeks before the 2020 elections saying don’t look at Hunter Biden’s laptop because it’s Russian disinformation?” Grenell tweeted Saturday. “Now he’s lecturing people about...

Former Acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell is pouring cold water on new reporting from Bob Woodward, detailed in the Washington Post Tuesday, that General Mark Milley vowed to give China a heads up if President Donald Trump ordered an attack. He's also dismissing calls from Alexander Vindman, the "whistleblower" behind Trump's first impeachment over a phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, for Milley to resign. From the Washington Post's reporting on Woodward's book: In the book’s account, Milley went so far as to pledge he would alert his counterpart in the event of a U.S. attack, stressing...

For 7 months now, people have wondered who the hell is running this dog & pony show known as the Biden admin. It’s a circus full of clowns, but who is the “top bozo?” Well, Trump loyalist Richard Grenell has always said that he knows who it is – and the person who he claims is the puppet master is disgraced liar Susan Rice. It makes sense – she’s an Obama stooge, who will do literally anything for the cause. She’ll lie, cheat, and steal, to make sure her team wins – we’ve seen her in action. Well, now, Rickard...

As recriminations fly among Biden officials over who bungled the Afghanistan withdrawal, some are questioning the responsibility of Russell Travers, who was fired by the Trump administration as acting head of the National Counterterrorism and subsequently rehired by President Joe Biden to lead the interagency process on the evacuation operation. In March 2020, then-Acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell fired Travers as acting head of the NCTC as part of the Trump administration’s efforts to streamline a bloated agency and remove ineffective individuals. The move was decried by former officials as a “purge” of career professionals, the Washington Post...

He exposed the connections between the highest officials in the Serbian government, Serbian leaders in technology and telecommunications, George Soros, former Vice President Joe Biden, the CIA and other government agencies in the United States. Among the figures Nogo mentions in his articles for the...
