In Feb 2021, then DC chief judge Beryl Howell created a special framework for judges to use in determining pre trial detention for J6ers—meaning keep them behind bars awaiting trial.. What became known as the “Chrestman factors” turned due process and standard bail rules on their head. Even nonviolent J6ers charged with conspiracy or obstruction with no criminal record could be held in a federal prison—often hauled cross country to the DC gulag—because as part of the “mob that attacked the Capitol,” they represented a danger to their community. A J6er’s release was not considered on a case by case...

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is under attack once again. Anonymous sources told The Wall Street Journal that Pete Hegseth brought his wife, Jennifer Hegseth, to two meetings with foreign military officials, during which they discussed sensitive information. According to The Wall Street Journal, Jennifer Hegseth, a private citizen, was present at a meeting at the Pentagon when Pete Hegseth met with U.K. Secretary of Defense John Healey in early March. Hegseth’s wife was also present at a meeting last month at NATO headquarters in Brussels. Spouses of high-ranking presidential administration officials usually have a low-level security clearance, at minimum. The...

Per @POTUS directive, I have revoked former President Joe Biden’s security clearance, and revoked clearances and access to classified information for Kamala Harris, Hillary Clinton, Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, Fiona Hill, and Alexander Vindman.

President Donald Trump announced that he had revoked security clearances and access to classified information from people such as former President Joe Biden, former Vice President Kamala Harris, and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, as well as several others. Trump also revealed that he had also revoked the security clearances of former Secretary of State Antony Blinken, former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY), and “any other member” of the Biden family. “I have determined that it is no longer in the national interest for the following individuals to access classified information: Antony Blinken, Jacob Sullivan, Lisa Monaco, Mark Zaid, Norman...

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard revoked security clearances from the 51 ‘spies who lied,’ several Biden-era officials and Deep State lawyers. Joe Biden is also no longer receiving his Daily Brief. Last month, President Trump stripped the security clearances of at least eight corrupt ‘antagonists’ who worked for Biden or targeted him for ruin over the last several years: Former Secretary of State Antony Blinken Former NatSec Advisor Jake Sullivan New York Attorney General Letitia James Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg Biden’s Deputy AG Lisa Monaco Corrupt prosecutor Andrew Weissmann Deep State lawyer Mark Zaid Norm Eisen – the man...

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...

President Donald Trump is expected to sign an executive order Thursday suspending security clearances held by employees of the law firm that hired Fusion GPS, which produced the infamous Steele Dossier in 2016, Breitbart News has learned. A White House document provided exclusively to Breitbart News by a White House official states that clearances held by those who work at Perkins Coie LLP “will be immediately suspended, pending a review of whether their access to sensitive information is consistent with the national interest.” “The Federal Government will halt all material and services, including sensitive compartmented information facility (SCIF) access provided...

Jack Poso 🇺🇸 @JackPosobiec BREAKING: President Trump suspended all security clearances and contracts with Covington and Burling Guess who else works there now:

But former colleagues of the terminated “G-men” say this narrative is backward. FBI officials, past and present, have marshaled significant evidence via whistleblower complaints and testimony indicating that several terminated leaders routinely used their offices for partisan purposes.

President Trump has ordered security clearances stripped from a new hit list of antagonists. Just days after revoking Joe Biden’s access to classified information and secure federal buildings — “because I don’t trust him” — Trump said his new top target is ex-Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, who orchestrated the “Dirty 51” letter from former intelligence officials on the eve of the 2020 election. .. New York Attorney General Letitia James and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg join the new group of eight Democrat foes Trump plans to punish by revoking any access to classified information and barring their entry...

President Trump on Saturday stripped the security clearances of 8 ‘antagonists’ who have targeted him for ruin – including at least two of the Deep State lawyers representing the FBI officials suing to block the DOJ from releasing names of officials involved in January 6 cases. Last Tuesday, two groups of FBI agents anonymously filed a lawsuit to block the Justice Department from accessing their names. President Trump stripped security clearances of Norm Eisen, the key architect behind the color revolution and 180 lawsuits against Trump – and Mark Zaid, the Deep State lawyer who represented Trump impeachment ‘whistleblower’ Eric...

President Trump is not done laying down the law on corrupt officials who sought not only destroy his political career and but also lock him in prison for life. As The Gateway Pundit’s Kristinn Taylor reported, Trump announced Friday evening he has revoked Joe Biden’s national security clearance and is stopping his courtesy presidential daily intelligence briefings. The president cited Biden’s precedent of doing the same to him in 2021, as well as the report by Special Counsel Robert Hur on Biden’s “poor memory” in his investigation about Biden stealing and mishandling classified documents as reasons for his action. Trump...

If they did nothing wrong, what are they afraid of? After all, that's what they said about Donald Trump for years. Now that the script flipped, their tune has changed--dramatically. As I reported last week, former and current apparatchiks for the Department of Justice are making plans to resign in advance of Donald Trump’s return to the White House in January. Those headed for exits include Special Counsel Jack Smith and his top team of prosecutors, who just withdrew their appeal of Judge Aileen Cannon’s order dismissing the classified documents indictment in Florida and asked for a halt to the...

There is no need for Joe Biden to continue receiving access to classified information. Therefore, we are immediately revoking Joe Biden’s Security Clearances, and stopping his daily Intelligence Briefings. He set this precedent in 2021, when he instructed the Intelligence Community (IC) to stop the 45th President of the United States (ME!) from accessing details on National Security, a courtesy provided to former Presidents. The Hur Report revealed that Biden suffers from “poor memory” and, even in his “prime,” could not be trusted with sensitive information. I will always protect our National Security — JOE, YOU’RE FIRED. MAKE AMERICA GREAT...

SNIP The two officials, who spoke to Reuters on condition of anonymity for fear of retaliation, said some senior career employees at OPM have had their access revoked to some of the department's data systems.SNIPOfficials affected by the move can still log on and access functions such as email but can no longer see the massive datasets that cover every facet of the federal workforce.SNIP"This makes it much harder for anyone outside Musk's inner circle at OPM to know what's going on," Moynihan said.MUSK INFLUENCEA team including current and former employees of Musk assumed command of OPM on Jan. 20,...

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump is taking further action against the 50 former intelligence officials who falsely suggested Hunter Biden’s laptop was “part of a Russian disinformation campaign,” instructing agencies to also ban those individuals from stepping foot in secure U.S. government facilities, according to a memo obtained by The Daily Wire. The Jan. 29 cabinet memorandum, first obtained by The Daily Wire, expands Trump’s day-one executive order, which revoked the security clearance for the 50 individuals. Sent “on behalf of the President,” it orders the country’s top national security agencies to “revoke unescorted access to secure U.S. Government facilities...

Since his election victory, President Trump has said he would not seek retribution against his perceived enemies. “I’m not looking to go into the past,” he said last month on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “Retribution will be through success.”But in an executive order he signed on Monday night, Mr. Trump made clear that he has every intention to seek out and possibly punish government officials in the Justice Department and America’s intelligence agencies as a way to “correct past misconduct” against him and his supporters.It would be justice, the order said, against officials from the Biden administration who carried out...

President Donald Trump on Day One of his second administration stripped former National Security Adviser John Bolton of his security clearance over the publishing of his tell-all memoir detailing his time in the Trump administration. Trump on Monday evening signed an executive order that read: National security is also damaged by the publication of classified information. Former National Security Advisor John R. Bolton published a memoir for monetary gain after he was terminated from his White House position in 2019. The book was rife with sensitive information drawn from his time in government. The memoir’s reckless treatment of sensitive information...

Fox News reports Trump will sign an executive order tomorrow suspending the security clearances for the 51 ex-intel officials who signed onto the bullshit Hunter Biden laptop letter in an effort to help Biden win. A totally justified & long overdue move.
