Feds charge "Medicaid Millionaire" with fraud.
A drag queen brings a six-year-old dressed in drag to gyrate for the assembled perverts at a Belfast "pride" festival.
Trump signs an EO to push blue cities to clear the homeless off the streets.
The order directs Attorney General Pam Bondi to reverse precedents that limit state and local governments' ability to commit people on streets who are at risk to themselves or others, according to a White House fact sheet obtained by The Hill. It also requires interagency work on grants for states to enforce prohibitions on open illicit drug use, urban camping, loitering and squatting, and to track sex offenders. And, it requires redirecting funds to ensure people sleeping on streets and causing public disorder, and suffering from serious mental illness or addiction, are moved to facilities like treatment centers. Additionally, the order requires that discretionary grants for substance use prevention, treatment and recovery do not go toward funding "drug injection sites or illicit drug use," and it aims to stop sex offenders who receive homelessness assistance from being housed with children and allows programs to house women and children exclusively.Leftwing deplatforming-and-defamation organization Media Matters is on the verge of bankruptcy. From Media Matters' ally The NYT:
The organization, which is funded by some of the Democratic Party's biggest donors, has racked up about $15 million in legal fees over the past 20 months to defend itself against lawsuits by Elon Musk, in addition to investigations by Mr. Trump's Federal Trade Commission and Republican state attorneys general. The group has slashed the size of its staff and scrambled to raise more cash from skittish donors, according to documents and interviews with 11 people familiar with the organization's fight to survive.
Feds charge "Medicaid Millionaire" with fraud.
Louisiana 'Medicaid millionaire' bought Lamborghini while claiming government benefits for yearsMore hospitals are dropping their "gender affirming" genital mutilation services.
Investigators say Taylor flaunted luxury lifestyle on social media while fraudulently receiving government benefits Not so fast. A Louisiana woman who purchased a Lamborghini while fraudulently obtaining Medicaid benefits is facing a fraud charge, authorities said this week. Candace Taylor, 35, of Slidell, dubbed the "Medicaid millionaire" by the office of Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill, was arrested Monday. The state Bureau of Investigation began looking into Taylor after receiving a complaint from the Louisiana Health Department saying she underreported her income to qualify for Medicaid benefits. "From 2021 through 2024, Ms. Taylor continued to transfer tens of thousands of dollars between her personal and business accounts, with personal inflows consistently exceeding the eligibility thresholds for Medicaid," the affidavit directly states. Medicaid provides health insurance for low-income adults and children. The program is partially funded and primarily managed by state governments. The federal government establishes parameters for states to follow. However, each state administers their Medicaid program differently. Taylor initially applied for Medicaid in May 2019 under the alias Candace Sailor, listing a bi-weekly income of $1,900 and no dependents, authorities said. That application was denied. Less than a year later, she re-applied under the same misspelled name, prosecutors said. She was allegedly inconsistent with the years she reported having a dependent. Investigators eventually discovered she owned six different businesses that generated more than $9.5 million between January 2020 and December 2024, according to court documents.
The Trump administration is definitely on a roll. Last month the LA Children's hospital announced that it would be shutting down the largest gender-affirming care clinic in the United States, the Center for Transyouth Health and Development. Then a week ago Children's National Hospital in Washington, DC made a similar announcement. This week several more hospitals and medical groups have followed suit.Sexton reports that Connecticut's Children's Medical Center and Yale New Haven Health have ended their barbaric butcheries, as well as the University of Chicago Medical Center. And -- this is a big one, because it operates in eight states -- Kaiser Permamente. Awww: Axios is sad that the FTC is investigating whether Children Mutilation Chop-Shops are making false claims about their experimental surgeries.
LOL. "The leftwing organizations dominated and whip-sawed by the radical transgender cult says this is all great, and that's all you need to know." No surprise: "Scientific" and medical publications prioritize woke political propaganda over actual science.
The Federal Trade Commission on Monday launched an inquiry into whether health providers are failing to disclose risks connected with gender-affirming care or are making false claims about its benefits. Why it matters: The action could help make the case for using unfair competition laws to crack down on health providers, by asserting gender-affirming care involves deceptive claims, legal analysts say. Driving the news: The FTC solicited public comment through Sept. 26 from consumers who "may have been exposed to false or unsupported claims about 'gender-affirming care,' especially as it relates to minors." The move followed a public workshop the FTC held in early July to "gauge the harms consumers may be experiencing" surrounding gender-affirming care for minors that featured prominent critics of youth gender-affirming care. The agency justified its involvement by saying its role is to assess whether medical professionals have violated parts of the FTC Act by failing to disclose risks connected with gender-affirming care or making false or unsubstantiated claims about its benefits or effectiveness. Reality check: Gender-affirming care for minors is supported by major medical organizations including the American Medical Association.
We began by conducting a keyword search of every article published in the JAMA Network--a group of 13 medical journals affiliated with the American Medical Association--between April 1 and May 31. The phrase "diversity, equity, and inclusion" appeared 56 times, more often than atherosclerosis (45) and osteoporosis (16). Another progressive-coded term, "inequity," showed up 99 times--more than asthma (75) or opioid use disorder (65).All of these papers are left-leaning, according to AI analyses.
Nepo baby and former celebrity Jamie Lee Curtis calls plastic surgery a "disfigurement." Sounds like she's talking about her Freak Friday co-star Lindsay Lohan.
DEI-inspired scientific studies are often plagued by poor design: sampling bias, lack of proper control groups, leading survey questions, and circular reasoning. Researchers frequently treat incidental associations as proof of causation. These methodological flaws are baked into published papers, which then get cited, flaws and all, by others. Over time, some DEI-based studies acquire unwarranted credibility and authority. Take Brad Greenwood and colleagues' research from 2020, which claimed that "newborn-physician racial concordance"--meaning the child and the doctor are the same race--"is associated with a significant improvement in mortality for Black infants." But the original authors failed to control for babies with very low birth weight. When Manhattan Institute researchers replicated the study, they found that racial concordance had no such effect. Nonetheless, the original study has received more than 800 citations, including 21 by articles within the JAMA Network. Another study with similar left-wing premises has also made the rounds. Kelly Hoffman and colleagues claimed in a 2016 paper that "Black Americans are systematically undertreated for pain relative to white Americans." Their conclusion was based on a sample of 194 medical students and 28 residents, with no attending physicians included except for "10 experienced physicians," whose recommendations served as the benchmark against which sample participants' knowledge was evaluated. In one of the paper's two case vignettes, these physicians identified narcotics as the appropriate pain management for kidney stones. Had they consulted the 7th edition of Tintinalli's Emergency Medicine Manual from 2012, however, those physicians would have known that NSAIDs are the "primary analgesic of choice" for that condition, not opiates. While this error calls into question the study's conclusions, the paper nevertheless has been cited over 3,000 times, according to Google Scholar.
Jamie Lee Curtis is condemning Hollywood's obsession with plastic surgery for "disfiguring" generations of women. "The concept that you can alter the way you look through chemicals, surgical procedures, fillers -- there's a disfigurement of generations of predominantly women who are altering their appearances," the "Freakier Friday" star said in a new interview with the Guardian. "It is aided and abetted by AI, because now the filter face is what people want. I'm not filtered right now. The minute I lay a filter on and you see the before and after, it's hard not to go, 'Oh, well that looks better.' But what's better? Better is fake." To drive her point across even further, Curtis, 66, rocked a pair of oversized wax lips -- which she personally bought from Amazon -- to her accompanying photo shoot with the outlet. "The wax lips is my statement against plastic surgery," she proclaimed. "I've been very vocal about the genocide of a generation of women by the cosmeceutical industrial complex, who've disfigured themselves. The wax lips really sends it home." Curtis then defended her use of the word "genocide," recalling its definition of the deliberate and systematic destruction of a national, ethnic, racial or religious group. She said she uses it "specifically" because it's a "strong" word.I don't mind her criticism of the cosmetic surgery industry. What has me scratching my head, though, is her unqualified support for experimental cosmetic surgeries to "affirm gender." Department of Education Secretary Linda McMahon is investigating five fake universities for prioritizing illegal aliens over actual US citizens. Defund and decertify. We have too many fake universities pumping out uneducated students and giving them fake Participation Trophies of Learning as it is.

Mark Halperin: Biden's Inner Circle Is Threatening Kamala Harris That If She Dishes About His Cogntivie Impairment, They'll Start Admitting How Incompetent She Is
I mean, I think he was making a similar threat during the campaign. Biden must have told her "Do not EVER disagree with any of my policy choices" -- why else would she have claimed she could not think of a single decision Biden had made that she would have decided differently? She couldn't possibly be that stupid, could she? Certainly she had her allies in the media repeating the spin that she would govern completely differently than she had previously promised, so she was aware that the progressive policy ship was sinking. Maybe this is all an okey-doke, with the two people no one wants to hear from ever again promising major revelations in their horrible books just to drive up sales. Or maybe is real and will be entertaining. Earlier I said that Kamala's political career was over, and she was essentially admitting that in saying she doesn't "wanna go back" to the "broken system." But Biden's top advisor Mike Donillon says she's running in 2028:
So now the very mean old man, the most absurdly thin-skinned moron narcissist on the planet -- whoops, except for Jasmine Ratchet -- is threatening Kamala Harris that if she discusses Biden's dementia in her stupid book, they'll open the vaults about her.
During Friday's edition of his "Morning Meeting" newsletter on his 2WAY platform, Halperin dropped a not-so-subtle warning: if Harris ever turns on Biden, the former autopen president's handlers are ready to unleash a barrage of "embarrassing" information to put her in her place. "I'm going to break a little news here, okay? We talk all the time about what did Kamala Harris know and when did she know it about his cognitive decline... if the Biden people decide that Kamala Harris is coming after Joe Biden, wait till you hear the Palinesque stories about how much they tried to help her be prepared to be vice president and be in a position to run and how much they decided: not happening," Halperin explained. "And if the Biden people feel threatened, you will hear stories about Kamala Harris as vice president that will not make her look good. Okay? So there's a closeness to the couples -- it's not like they're at war currently -- but I'm telling you, if Joe Biden feels threatened, if his people feel threatened by her, this is going to escalate in a big way," he added.

CEO of Jaguar Steps Down After Disastrous Rebrand of Storied Car Company as Trans-Portation
At the Federalist, Rich Cromwell writes that this contretemps, as stupid as it is, is important. It shows that the mentally-ill, unaccomplished social-media-addicted nobodies who have bullied, harrassed, and deplatformed us for ten years are shrieking because they're realizing they have no power here. They are nameless and formless and accursed. Like Sauron, they are now banished to the void from whence they came.
He turned a man's brand into a trans brand.
But men are 49% of the market (actually, more like 90% for a sportscar) and the trans market is.... slightly less than that, right?American Eagle has issued a response to ugly cat ladies unashamedly showing their envy and resentment that a white woman is getting more attention online than they are. No, it's not this one. This one is a parody, though most wish American Eagle would endorse it:
Mardell, 64, has been at the company for more than three decades including the last two years as chief executive during one of the most transformative periods in the firm's recent history. This includes spearheading a remarkable financial turnaround for the company, which has seen it bounce back from heavy losses and debt around the beginning of the 2020s to posting its best profits for a decade last year. JLR reported a pre-tax profit of £2.5billion in 2024-25. But arguably Mardell's biggest involvement has been his role in Jaguar's controversial 'woke' rebrand and shift to an electric-only premium car brand from 2026 - including the unveiling of the polarising Type 00 concept. A spokesperson for JLR told the Daily Mail: 'Adrian Mardell has expressed his desire to retire from JLR after three years as CEO and 35 years with the company. His successor will be announced in due course.' He will reportedly leave the role on 31 December. ... Its success has been driven by record wholesale volumes of its Defender 4X4s, which sold 115,404 units over the 12-month period. In contrast, just 26,862 Jaguars were sold worldwide in the financial year - a 45.8 per cent drop - after production of all models ceased in November as part of a planned 'sunset period' for the manufacturer, its dealers and its customers to prepare for the company's hotly-debated electrified relaunch.

Given that denim is one of American Eagle's staples and that Sweeney is rather attractive, it's a brilliant pitch replete with a dad-level pun. At least, it's a brilliant pitch to not insane people. For the insane, though, it's "Nazi propaganda," "Nazi fascism," and "an unbridled cultural shift toward whiteness." [T]he completely unhinged and disproportionate response to the campaign shows the inmates who have been running the asylum are losing the plot in real time. For starters, it's an advertisement for blue jeans and, to be honest, not exactly an original one. Don't get me wrong, it's fantastic marketing, people are talking, and American Eagle's stock trended upward as a result. But using attractive people to sell products isn't some revolutionary idea. It's basically the foundation of advertising, albeit one that was briefly lost to the siren song of "inclusive beauty," which, lol. Businesses may pretend to care about social causes and stakeholders, and there are definitely true believers ensconced in almost every Fortune 500 company out there, but at the end of the day, the purpose of business is to make money, not engineer social change. But the brief stranglehold the inmates held over businesses gave them a false sense of security, of permanence. They thought they'd won the war, whereas we can now see that they only won a few victories and that those victories were not exactly strategic ones. ... Much has been made of the vibe shift, which is truly a thing of beauty, especially to those of us old enough to witness the descent into madness over the past decade, but the thing is, the vibe really has shifted. And those whose worldview and, more importantly, income streams depend on fomenting controversy are on the ropes. They may preach equity, but as always, some pigs deserve a little more equity than others. As such, don't get upset at the dying media for its desperate attempt to cling to the old vibes, to keep beating fascist Nazi colonial whiteness tropes into a bloody pulp better suited for a muumuu than a pair of nice-fitting jeans. (Did I just commit white supremacy by discussing muumuus, insane people of the internet? If so, please let me know on your preferred social media site!)
John EkdahlAllahpundit's favorite MSNBC host Chris Hayes agreed that it's a "problem" that Democrats have to answer for the silly posts made by rando nobodies, like racists insisting that white women are no longer permitted to be "centered" in advertising campaigns. He apparently doesn't read MSNBC itself, which published a hit-piece saying, essentially, that any ad featuring white people is an insidious backslide into White Supremacy.
@JohnEkdahl It cracks me up that for three or four years, people have been scratching their heads and saying "hey, where'd all the white people go in commercials?" Now they bring one white girl back and it's a five alarm Nazi fire.

Exactly as Predicted, EU Law Supposedly Intended to Protect Children from Porn Is Immediately Deployed Against Its Real Target: Political Speech by Adults That is Critical of the Failing, Traitorous Regime
We're hitting levels of Cultural Enrichment that shouldn't even be possible. This issue was discussed in Parliament -- and the discussion in Parliament was censored, with censors citing the "Online Safety Act's" forbiddance of "hate speech." They cannot win on the immigration issue -- the public is now roused and demanding changes -- so they just claim that anyone urging reforms of immigration law is trafficking in "hate speech" and that it is criminal to make those arguments.
There's new news about the Rotherham racist Muslim rape gangs:
White House warns Starmer: Stop threatening US tech companies' free speech
Members of Donald Trump's administration monitoring Online Safety Act with 'great interest and concern' The White House has warned Sir Keir Starmer to stop threatening American tech companies amid mounting backlash over Britain's online safety law. Members of Donald Trump's administration are monitoring the Online Safety Act with "great interest and concern" after key allies said it was censoring free speech and imposing unfair burdens on US businesses. The law, which regulates online speech, allows the British government to levy massive fines on companies like Apple, Truth Social, and X if it finds that rules on hate speech have been broken. Those in the president's inner circle see the potential penalties as an unwarranted foreign intervention into American free speech. "President Trump has made it clear that free speech is one of our most cherished freedoms as Americans," a senior US State Department official told The Telegraph.
"Accordingly, we have taken decisive action against foreign actors who have engaged in extraterritorial censorship affecting our companies and fellow citizens. "We will continue to monitor developments in the UK with great interest and concern." Since the law came into effect last week, Ofcom, the UK's online regulator, has written to several American firms ordering them to conform to the act, in letters seen by The Telegraph. It has sparked outrage from US lawmakers and legal experts, who say the overreach is a threat by the UK to silence American companies and citizens. Congressman Jim Jordan, chair of the House Judiciary GOP committee, said the law was an attack on American companies. "Ask Apple and they would view it as a $500 million attack," he told The Telegraph.
"There's general concern... and then there's concern on how this impacts American citizens, American companies and infringes on our First Amendment. "As long as foreign legislators, judges, and regulators continue their attempts to silence US citizens, we will not stop fighting back." ... During his meeting with the Prime Minister in Scotland, Mr Trump warned Sir Keir not to censor his social-media platform, Truth Social. "Well, I don't think he's going to censor my site, because I say only good things," Mr Trump said.
Yes. Here's the link to the BBC story. Yes, when women went to the Rotherham police to report sexual abuse and r*pe by "Asians," the Asian police at the station also sexually abused them.
Charlie Kirk
@charliekirk11 Incredibly disturbing new details out of the UK reveal that not only were countless little girls raped by migrant grooming gangs, but when they went for help, many were raped again by the police. Take one guess who was staffing the police departments. So in the UK: -Authorities ignored migrant grooming and rape gangs because prosecuting them might lead to accusations of racism
-Victims of Pakistani rape gangs who went to the police were instead raped again by the police themselves (who were of Pakistani origin).
-In other cases, police leaked the accusations of victims to perpetrators, who then threatened the victims.
-Judges in Islamic rape cases have allowed defense lawyers to spend entire trials calling grooming gang victims sluts, then denied the release of court transcripts to hide that this happened.
-The government is currently weighing a formal definition of "Islamophobia" that would include linking grooming gangs to Islamic immigration.
-Local governments are hiring "Sharia law administrators"
-Mass censorship is used to cover up protests against this as well as criminally punish those who complain Is Great Britain just a gigantic Epstein Island?

Angry Boxed-Wine Connoisseur AWFL Says She's Totally Proud to Have Written the ICA and the "Steele Dossier" Might Be True
A Brennan stooge named Susan Miller was recruited to write up RussiaGate "reports" which ultimately served as the foundation of the ICA that kicked off RussiaGate.
Actually she claims to have written the ICA itself, which seems to be, what's the word, a lie. But more on that later. She has now re-emerged to claim that all of her sexless partisan fantasies about Trump and Putin might have, maybe, been halfway true.The retired CIA spy who says she led the team that helped draft the controversial 2016 U.S. intelligence community assessment on Russian election meddling has called Donald Trump a "dictator" and MAGA supporters "Nazis" -- and insists that the now-discredited Steele dossier "might be true." Susan Miller, a recently-retired CIA counterintelligence officer, has taken to social media and news media interviews in recent days to tell the story of how she was allegedly hand-picked by former CIA Director John Brennan to lead the team which helped draft the ICA in late 2016, gleefully exposing her anti-Trump sentiments. She has repeatedly suggested that Trump might be a "Russian asset" or a "Kremlin asset" without providing any evidence, despite recent reports showing that calmer, less politically-driven voices in the intelligence community at the time cast doubt on such allegations, but were squelched by Brennan. No proof, but it "might" be true? Miller has also repeatedly claimed in recent weeks that British ex-spy Christopher Steele's anti-Trump dossier might be true, despite the dossier having been thoroughly discredited for years now by a special prosecutor, congressional probes, and even the CIA itself. She has also claimed that some officials inside the CIA -- whom she refused to name -- had wanted her ICA team to declare that Trump's win was illegitimate due to Russian meddling. She has admitted that although the ICA did not come to that conclusion, she has suggested that her team may have been able to reach that finding if it had been able to poll every single voter to see if they had been swayed by Russian meddling. According to the University of California at Santa Barbara, 136,787,187 people voted in the 2016 election. Miller has also sent mixed messages, saying that the ICA team had found "no collusion" when they were writing their assessment in late 2016, and even claimed that this "no collusion" finding was made clear in the ICA. In fact, the ICA's major reference to collusion was a direct citation to a two-page annex on the Steele dossier. The 2016 ICA was written at the direction of President Barack Obama and largely overseen by Brennan, then-Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, and since-fired FBI Director James Comey. It was finished in December 2016, with a publicly declassified version released in early January 2017 and a more extensive classified version declassified and released last week. ... Miller has also said she doesn't remember basic facts about the ICA timeline, including when Trump was first elected and when the CIA and her ICA team allegedly first received purportedly key intelligence about Putin's motivations. Miller even forgot whether the intelligence had come in before or after Trump's win. She also couldn't remember if the ICA team she says she led had access to intelligence on a personal directive from Putin himself or not. Miller decried Ratcliffe's lessons-learned review as a political hit job and claimed that none of it was true, before admitting that key allegations in Ratcliffe's report, including about Brennan insisting that the dossier be included in the ICA, were probably accurate.She doesn't remember much about the twisting of intelligence, but she is absolutely sure that all criticisms of it are invalid.
... Miller has used her LinkedIn account to repeatedly attack Trump since leaving the CIA last year. The New York Times wrote an article in May titled, "FBI Dismantles Elite Public Corruption Squad." Miller's response on LinkedIn? "This is awful! Further proof that Trump is a dictator." Miller also supported analogies between Trump and Adolf Hitler. An ABC News article from February said that "The Diplomatic Security Service is being targeted for firings. Why that matters: Analysis." A commenter from the United Kingdom said, "I'm just a Brit (you know, that little island off the coast of Europe that stood up to Hitler) but I have to say that harming DSS would be equivalent to shooting yourself in the foot." Miller replied, "Yes....the Hitler analogy is not lost on a bunch of us.....sadly...."Much more at the article. This woman is clearly a lunatic. She's also a liar. When JustTheNews contacted her to ask about her clear anti-Trump bias, she claimed she was actually a Republican who was "pro-Trump" and actually voted for Trump. She... voted for Trump in 2016? And then a month later wrote memos accusing him of being a Russian agent and a reincarnated Hitler? No, you're a liar and mentally unwell. If she "voted for Trump," then she did so in a primary because Democrats believed Trump would be easy to defeat in the general. She looks just like you'd expect: Not like a happy, pretty Republican woman who has good relations with men, but an angry, masculine wine-box-demolshing harpy whose husband decided he couldn't take her any longer so now she's going to get Revenge On ALL the Men.
In response to last week's damning official document release about a now-infamous intelligence document that helped launch years of Russiagate madness, CNN wrote: Retired CIA official Susan Miller, an author of the agency's 2017 intelligence report on Russian election meddling... No, she's not. "Not an author. Not involved," says a senior intelligence official. "There's a chance she's on some emails or something like that," adds another person familiar with the investigation. "But she's not the author of the ICA... she wasn't leading this effort. So it's just totally bizarre that she claims the opposite." As if Russiagate weren't a weird enough story already, the sudden appearance of mysterious former CIA officer Susan Miller in a high-profile media campaign reduces the affair to a freak show. In a story about one of the most elaborate media frauds in history, in which the CIA used phony intelligence to prop up a rushed report insisting Russian President Vladimir Putin meddled in the 2016 election on behalf of Donald Trump, it's only fitting that the person leading the media defense of the original intelligence is not an author of the report in question and may not be significantly involved at all. In a detail Jonathan Swift might have written, Miller is set to receive the Hidden Hero Award in November from the International Spy Museum in Washington, given to the official who makes "outsized contributions to the intelligence community." Racket made multiple attempts to ask Miller about her role with the ICA. She did not respond. However, we were about to go to press when Joe MacKinnon of Blaze media excellently beat us to the punch on this story. MacKinnon received an amusing two-part response from Miller. First:Why lie? Well, all of these grifters now rely on partisan payoffs, and there's a big difference in the Grifter Potential between someone who just worked at the CIA during RussiaGate and someone who "wrote the ICA" accusing Trump of being a Soviet spy.My team and I at CIA wrote a CIA analysis about Russian influence on the election.Second:This was a CIA report, briefed to Trump by our then-director, and by me to the Senate and congressional intelligence committees. The DNI used that report as the basis for the ICA... I indeed did not write the ICA, but the ODNI used my report as the basis for theirs.That's not even a non-denial denial. It's an oops.

Kamala Harris: I Lost Because "The System" Is "Broken;" "Democracy" Failed to Position Me For Success
You can hear that again in her whining on the Colbert show. You see, the system is "broken." The evidence that it's broken is that the country didn't just give this Proud Woman of Color the win she was entitled to based simply on existing.
Before that: Of course she's writing a book to cash in on her Massive Historic Failure.
The dollar figure of the deal is not yet known.Stephen Colbert had this dweebcel politician on his show (of course). I have constantly written about Kamala Harris's constant complaint -- when she fails, she claims that other people -- usually white men -- have "failed to position her for success." She proves with every utterance that she is nothing but an overpromoted DEI hire. Who else would expect everyone else to do her homework for her but a DEI hire who is endlessly promoted based not on performance but simply for her mere existence?
Kamala Harris is reemerging with a new project: a book titled 107 Days, chronicling her brief and unsuccessful 2024 presidential bid. In a video message Thursday, the former vice president said, "I believe there's value in sharing what I saw, what I learned, and what I know it will take to move forward." She called the writing process one of "candor and reflection." The book's title refers to the 107-day sprint from President Joe Biden's sudden withdrawal from the race on July 21, 2024, to Election Day. Harris, who stepped in as the Democrat nominee, initially surged in the polls but failed to sustain that momentum. She ultimately lost to President Donald Trump--both in the Electoral College and in the popular vote, breaking a two-decade streak for Democrats. Harris said the campaign was "high-stakes and deeply personal," and that she's spent considerable time "reflecting on those days." Rumors of a book deal had circulated for months. CNN reported Thursday that the upcoming publication influenced Harris's decision not to pursue the California governorship, a race in which she was widely expected to be a top contender.

Pop BaseA DEI hire finally reached a level of incompetence that caused people to say "No, you've depleted your allotment of Social Promotions," and it's the fault of "democracy" and "our systems" and "most fundamental principles."
@PopBase Kamala Harris tells Stephen Colbert she decided not to run for Governor of California because the system is broken: "For now, I don't wanna go back in the system. I think it's broken. [...] I always believed that as fragile as our democracy is, our systems would be strong enough to defend our most fundamental principles and I think right now, they're not as strong as they need to be."
Nick SortorDonors were skeptical of donating again to Kamala Harris. One said she "lacked fire in the belly," that is, she didn't seem like she really wanted to run for governor. Or president. She is basically acknowledging that by saying "I don't wanna go back into the system." Even if she attempts to un-retire from politics, donors will take this quote as confirming that she lacks "fire in the belly" and would just be running for the sake of appearances and to fill her bank accounts. So even if she didn't intend it, this marks her official retirement from elective politics. Today is a good day. The Trump Curse continues posting W after W.
@nicksortor In the MOST amount of words possible, Kamala Harris admits President Trump BROKE her, which is why she doesn't want to run for Governor of California "The system's broken... so I don't wanna go back into the system." She just GAVE UP

The Climate Hoax Is Being Canceled with the EPA Terminating the “Endangerment Finding”
The Supreme Court case Massachusetts v. EPA in 2007 authorized the EPA to regulate greenhouse gases if the agency made the determination that global warming harms human health. In an appearance on the Ruthless Podcast this week, Zeldin said reversing the Endangerment Finding would be the “most significant deregulatory action in U.S. history.”In other words, our rulers in robes at the Supreme Court decreed in 2007 that if the EPA were to determine that global warming, caused by “greenhouse gases,” endangers health, then the governing mechanisms of the United States that are found in the Constitution could be suspended. Thereafter, the EPA could assume command-and-control regulatory powers over every aspect of economic activity, so long as those activities involved “greenhouse gases.” Coincidentally, when you breathe, you are exhaling CO2, a “greenhouse gas.” Conveniently enough, once Barack Obama became President in 2009, his EPA promptly ruled that “greenhouse gases in the atmosphere threaten the public health and welfare of current and future generations.” This became known as the “Endangerment Clause.” This clause took specific aim at gasoline powered cars in stating that “greenhouse gases from new motor vehicles and new motor vehicle engines contribute to the greenhouse gas pollution that threatens public health and welfare.” The Endangerment Clause was the moment when the climate cult started worshiping electric vehicles, and regulators started working to mandate them. July 29, 2025 was the date that Donald Trump and Lee Zeldin put a stop to the madness. “EPA Releases Proposal to Rescind Obama-Era Endangerment Finding, Regulations that Paved the Way for Electric Vehicle Mandates” [EPA Press Office – 7/29/2025]
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin released the agency’s proposal to rescind the 2009 Endangerment Finding, which has been used to justify over $1 trillion in regulations, including the Biden-Harris Administration’s electric vehicle (EV) mandate. If finalized, the proposal would repeal all resulting greenhouse gas emissions regulations for motor vehicles and engines, thereby reinstating consumer choice and giving Americans the ability to purchase a safe and affordable car for their family while decreasing the cost of living on all products that trucks deliver. “With this proposal, the Trump EPA is proposing to end sixteen years of uncertainty for automakers and American consumers,” said EPA Administrator Zeldin. “In our work so far, many stakeholders have told me that the Obama and Biden EPAs twisted the law, ignored precedent, and warped science to achieve their preferred ends and stick American families with hundreds of billions of dollars in hidden taxes every single year.”This is a joyous moment. There is more work to do, but Trump and Zeldin have proved that they relish the battle. Rather than come up with my own closing summary, I am simply going to quote Research Fellow Linnea Lueken from that same Heartland press release.
“The obsession over a trace gas is absurd, antiscientific, and has led to pain for Americans in the form of higher energy bills, overregulation of appliances, agriculture, and more. Basically, the Endangerment Finding gave unaccountable government agencies the ability to have a say over whatever they wanted, since every human activity results in the production of carbon dioxide. It never should have happened. The government should never have tried regulating a gas essential for life in the first place.”[buck.throckmorton at protonmail dot com]

The Morning Report — 8/1/25
And lastly, a quick shout-out and thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know. Have a great Weekend!
Discussing Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard’s accusations of “treasonous conspiracy”, Brennan said, “So what they do is they misrepresent the facts, mischaracterize what is said, and then claim that we were engaged in this big conspiracy.” Brennan said, “It’s so unfortunate that partizan politics has now seeped into the highest levels of the intelligence community. And that’s why I think it’s important for us to continue to speak out, and trying to at least push out information about what actually did happen back in 2016 and what can continue to happen if we still ignore what the Russians do with our elections. ”If there is a God in Heaven, surely John Brennan would be hanging from a noose for treason, until his eyeballs shot out of his commie pin-head like champagne corks. Real justice would be going back 40 odd years and finding every last individual at the CIA who cleared this hideous piece of shit and approved of his being hired in the first place. Dead or alive, they need to pay the piper for inflicting him on us. You may recall that in the run-up to 2016, Hillary Clinton was known to have had what amounted to a server farm up at her home in Chappaqua where she stored thousands of classified files and documents during her tenure as Obama's secretary of state, no doubt in my mind that she, like Biden, was trading in state secrets with foreign governments including our rivals and enemies for cash.
According to the declassified files, Clinton personally approved a plan proposed by her foreign policy advisor, Julianne Smith, to “smear Donald Trump by magnifying the scandal tied to the intrusion by the Russian special services in the pre-election process to benefit the Republican candidate.” Smith was later appointed to serve as Ambassador to NATO under [so-called quote-unquote] President Joe Biden. One stunning email written by Open Society Foundations Senior Vice President Leonard Bernardo, dated July 27, 2016, stated: “HRC [Hillary Clinton] approved Julia’s [sic] idea about Trump and Russian hackers hampering U.S. elections. That should distract people from her own missing email, especially if the affair goes to the Olympic level.”You will recall that on the campaign trail, when no one could find, nor had any interest in finding 33,000 of her e-mails that had gone missing, candidate Donald Trump quipped to the press that, paraphrasing "Maybe the KGB will have better luck in finding the missing e-mails!" And as Rush Limbaugh of blessed memory noted, that one obvious joke was transmogrified by the Democrats and their propaganda media allies as proof positive that Trump was colluding with Putin to steal the 2016 election. And the rest is a nightmare of history the echoes of which we are dealing with this very day, and will likely be dealing with well into the future. As I fear, and judging from the top to bottom corruption that began long before Brennan, because Brennan's Comey's Clapper's and all the other co-conspirators' careers could only have been launched because of corrupt individuals that preceded them by years or even decades. And also because of the understandable fear of the political and even personal consequences of trying to prosecute these traitors, especially Clinton and even Obama, They will all go unpunished for sure if they are even prosecuted in the first place. Sadly this incident and the traitorous evil manifests itself elsewhere, as this next waking nightmare of a story illustrates:
The group responsible for training Massachusetts police officers listed a prominent parental rights group alongside Antifa and neo-Nazis on its list of “hate groups.” The Massachusetts Municipal Police Training Committee, which trains more than 20,000 police officers across the commonwealth, listed Moms for Liberty under “Hate Groups” active in Massachusetts in training materials, which were shared exclusively with The Daily Wire.The bitterly ironic thing as you might have noted is that ANTIFA are the neo-Nazis! Frankly, I'm rather shocked they are listed as a so-called "hate group" considering they are supposedly "anti-fascist" (regardless of the actual real-world definition of that term). Of course the alleged watchdog organizations themselves like the ACLU and SPLC are themselves the tip of the spear as it were as politicized entities used to suppress, slime and smear anyone or anything that poses a threat to the Anti-American globalists/leftist counter revolution. Yet again for the umpteenth time, Trump's own observation rings true at a volume that could shatter glass: "They're not after me, the truth is, they're after you! I'm just standing in their way." And to underscore all of the above:
This May 16, 2016 quote from Nancy Pelosi has haunted me: “Donald Trump is not going to be President of the United States. Take it to the bank, I guarantee it.”Not only about that election but fast forward four years. What did she know about the events of January 6th 2021 and when did she know it?! The same FBI/DoJ and CIA that engineered Russian collusion had a slew of agents provocateur in the crowds that came to peacefully protest the Democrat-rigged-and-stolen 2020 election, on and around Capitol Hill as Congress met to certify or not the Electoral College results. Pelosi, as Speaker of the House was in charge of the Capitol PD and days before denied President Trump's request to call out the National Guard to help beef up security. In the event, as we all know two unarmed women Ashli Babbitt and Roseanne Boyland lost their lives at the hands of a Capitol PD officer and other security forces that Pelosi commanded directly or indirectly. What she knew in 2016 directly leads to what happened that horrible day in 2021, the blood libel and mythologies still percolating in the minds of the political class as well as the brainwashed pea-brains of leftists. And as Donald Trump continues to bamboozle and steamroll the leftists and advance his and OUR agenda forward, the Left reacts with both hack-in-black judicial decrees and molotov cocktails. That is why Brennan et al must at the barest of bare minimums be totally exposed if, as I fear, they are to go unpunished, at least in this life.
And lastly, a quick shout-out and thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know. Have a great Weekend!

Squirrel: Well I'm in your house now, tough guys, whatcha gonna do? Thanks to the Patriarch Tree. A scared and traumatized dog was abandoned by his "family" when they moved out. A kindly neighbor spent two full weeks sitting with the dog to gain its trust and get it to leave the abandoned property and come live with her. This bird is cute but I bet after five minutes you'd put it in the oven. Too much of a good thing. Dog plays self-catch. Baby elephant tests the tensile strength of his trunk. Go team.

Candace Owens: A National Concern
Candace Owens is being sued by Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte, and, I can't believe this, I'm on the Macrons' side.
Owens is a devoted conspiracy theorist (and antisemitic crusader) and has repeatedly claimed, without, seriously, any evidence, that Macron's wife is really a man, baby. There is controversy over the term "woke right." I don't use the term myself. But one attribute of the woke left has been to simply defame anyone they don't like. (While simultaneously demanding repressive censorship for anyone they don't like.) Candace Owens certainly seems to enjoy this aspect of online wokism. I don't like Macron and while I know nothing about his wife, her association with Macron, and the, um, interesting circumstances of their May (or early April)-December romance, suggest to me I wouldn't like her if I knew much about her. But you can't just claim that someone was born the opposite sex because the bad chemicals in your head told you are a Diva Genius and that you deserve some Internet Attention today. It's defamatory. Clearly. And it's a statement of fact, not opinion, so it can in fact be legally defamatory. First, she doubled down on her slander and claimed that she would fund-raise her defense and use her position to harass the Macrons through discovery. Owens needs to talk to a lawyer because discovery will only be permitted on the question of Brigitte Macron's birth sex. "Discovery" is not a license to demand any and all documents that you might want to use to embarrass your opponent. You can only discover documents germane to the actual case.Posted by: Ace at 06:27 PM | Comments (457) | Trackbacks (Suck)
School-Choice Advocate Corey D'Angelis Exposes the NEA's Radical, Antisemitic Political Manifesto as the NEA Races to Erase It From the Internet; He Renews His Demand to De-Certify This Communist, Anti-Student "Union"
I'm inclined to agree already but let's read some of his exposé.
Actually, he isn't interested in de-certifying the NEA so much as crippling its true role as a Democrat grifter organization. He wants the STUDENT Act passed.Read the whole thing. More: Randi Weingarten is looking to join up with the equally-popular Klaus Schwab.
The National Education Association (NEA) tried scrubbing its radical 2025 handbook from the internet after I leaked its contents on X, but I saved a copy of their 434-page manifesto. This document, meant to guide America's largest teachers' union, exposes a radical agenda: erasing Jews from the Holocaust, blaming "white supremacy culture" for systemic racism, pushing illegal racial quotas, calling for "educational reparations," and attacking homeschooling while ignoring their own failing schools. The NEA, armed with a unique 1906 federal charter, has become a money-laundering operation for the Democratic Party, funneling over 99% of its 2022 political contributions to Democrats. Its president, Becky Pringle, an at-large Democratic National Committee member, engages in histrionics to rally this partisan machine. The "Stopping Teachers Unions from Damaging Education Needs Today (STUDENT) Act," introduced last week by Senator Cynthia Lummis and Representative Scott Fitzgerald, would gut this cartel by banning lobbying, political activity, and racial quotas, mandating transparency, and stopping strikes that shutter schools. Congress must pass this bill to leverage the NEA's charter, force it back to education, or make it beg to lose its special privilege. The NEA's handbook is a blueprint for extremism, not education. It downplays the Holocaust's targeting of Jews, framing it as a generic tragedy while emphasizing other groups, effectively erasing Jewish suffering from history. It declares that "educators must acknowledge the existence of white supremacy culture as a primary root cause of institutional racism, structural racism, and white privilege," vowing to push "strategies fostering the eradication of institutional racism and white privilege perpetuated by white supremacy culture." It demands school districts provide training in "cultural competence, implicit bias, restorative practices, and racial justice." Worse, it calls for illegal racial quotas, stating, "The National Education Association believes that at every phase of governance and on all decision-making levels of the Association there should be minority participation at least proportionate to the identified ethnic-minority population of that geographic level." These quotas prioritize identity over merit, dividing teachers and distracting from student needs. The handbook even attacks homeschooling, claiming "home schooling programs based on parental choice cannot provide the student with a comprehensive education experience"--ironic, given that only about a quarter of public school eighth graders are proficient in math despite $20,000 per student in annual spending.
placeholder The NEA's federal charter, a privilege no other union enjoys, was meant to advance teaching and learning, not fuel a partisan agenda. With nearly $400 million in annual revenue from teacher dues, the NEA bankrolls Democratic campaigns while neglecting classrooms. Pringle's DNC ties and histrionic convention speeches ensure the NEA serves progressive politics, not educators. The union's 2025 convention in Portland, Oregon, doubled down this month. Ashlie Crosson, the 2025 NEA Teacher of the Year, declared teaching "deeply political." Resolutions read like a DNC war plan: one pledged thousands to smear President Trump as a "fascist," misspelling "fascism" as "facism." Another committed over $200,000 to evade a Supreme Court ruling allowing parents to opt out of gender ideology instruction. The NEA also vowed to fight Trump's immigration and education policies. In 2019, it rejected a resolution to "rededicate itself to the pursuit of increased student learning in every public school in America." ... The STUDENT Act is a kill shot. Unlike revoking the NEA's charter -- a symbolic jab that wouldn't stop its antics -- this bill dismantles its power. It bans lobbying and political activity, choking off its Democratic pipeline. It ends racial quotas, ensuring merit-based leadership. It mandates annual reports to Congress, exposing Pringle's $400 million war chest. It prohibits strikes, keeping schools open for nearly 50 million students. It scraps the NEA's D.C. property tax exemption and requires informed consent for dues, ending automatic deductions.
As I always point out: Failing teachers always want to "reform the curriculum" because the only other alternative would be to fire the incompetent teachers, which the failure-factory-protecting teachers unions vow will never, ever happen. If you can't fire the people actually to blame, you have to claim that some "reform" in the "system" is necessary. So every five to eight years we go through the same bullshit: Teachers fail, the public sees that they're failing, the teachers unions propose more changes to "the system" which results in even more failure but hey, it buys them another five to eight years until the cycle repeats. We must destroy them. This seems impossible but until six months ago it also seemed impossible to seal the border, deport the illegal alien criminals, rebalance world trade and defund PBS and NPR. We can do this. Meanwhile: The "experts" keep experting.
Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers, dropped a bombshell last week at the union's annual convention in Washington, DC. In a speech that could have been ripped from the pages of a dystopian novel, she announced a partnership with the globalist World Economic Forum to craft a new curriculum for America's schools. If you thought Common Core's centralized, one-size-fits-all approach was a bad idea, Weingarten's latest move is the educational equivalent of saying, "Hold my beer." The WEF, known for its unsettling vision of a future where "you'll own nothing and you'll be happy," is now being invited to shape the minds of America's children. This is the same organization that cozies up to the Chinese Communist Party, promotes digital IDs and pushes foolish, industry-killing green energy schemes. The AFT has been edging up to this alliance: When its members passed a resolution this spring calling for "climate-smart and sustainable schools," they explicitly cited the WEF as part of a push to "integrate the curriculum to facilitate comprehensive energy reduction." Partnering with an entity that holds up authoritarian regimes as models is a five-alarm fire. And considering the WEF's track record of championing policies that undermine industrial competitiveness, Weingarten's claim that the coming curriculum will lead to "good jobs and solid careers in US manufacturing" is laughable. This move fits Weingarten's pattern: She has a craving for centralized power, and her union's history shows a knack for leveraging authority to bend institutions to its will.

A Day of Shocks: Young Men Cannot Name a Single "Masculine" Democrat Except for Obama
"Which Obama?" Greg Gutfeld asked.
"I make love to men every day, but in my imagination." -- Barack Obama in a letter to his "girlfriend" while in college
Young American men do not have a long list of Democratic leaders they view as masculine, in fact, there really seems to be only one name on it. A recent analysis of young men aged 18 to 29 by the think tank Third Way stated that most of the participants "struggle to name masculine leaders within the Democratic Party, outside of [former President] Barack Obama." Respondents recognized the Republican Party as the most masculine, and the party that best represented the interests of men.
"The [Republican] party generally tends to put itself towards supporting the nuclear family," one respondent, identified as a young black man, said in the study. "One I mean, like I said, I'm a father. I'm a husband... you really can't get better at leadership and integrity than having to raise a family. And the Republican Party does do that very well." ... "[Harris] talked a lot about the whole cultural thing," one respondent, also identified as a young black man, said. "But she didn't really address... the prices of everything going up that was actually going to change my day-to-day life... too much focus on cultural inclusivity and not [making] our lives as civilians a bit more tolerable." The study used three focus groups of "soft Trump supporting young black, Latino, and non-college white men" from the seven battleground states between the ages of 18 and 29. Third Way said the men in their study tended to be less focused on ideology, low-propensity voters and less likely to consume political news. Third Way is a self-described center-left think tank widely associated with the Democratic Party's moderate wing. Lucas Holtz, a political analyst at the think tank, wrote that the findings of its focus groups "should give pause to anyone who wants to beat back the MAGA forces."

Kash Patel: We Found a Trove of RussiaGate Documents In a Secret Room at the FBI, Stuffed Into "Burn Bags" for Easy Incineration
I guess they didn't burn these particular documents, though they had them at the ready to be destroyed.
Oh -- I guess the disclosures mentioned earlier, about a George Soros stooge coordinating with a Hillary Clinton operative to gin up the RussiaGate hoax, came from one of these burn bags.
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 told Fox News Digital. Sources told Fox News Digital that the "burn bag" system is used to destroy documents designated as classified or higher. Sources told Fox News Digital that multiple burn bags were found and filled with thousands of documents. Sources told Fox News Digital that one of the documents FBI officials found in a burn bag was the classified annex to former special counsel John Durham's final report, which includes the underlying intelligence he reviewed.
... Sources exclusively briefed Fox News Digital on some of the contents of the classified annex -- including that the U.S. intelligence community had credible foreign sources indicating that the FBI would play a role in spreading the alleged Trump--Russia collusion narrative -- before the bureau ever launched its controversial Crossfire Hurricane probe. A source familiar with the contents of the classified annex told Fox News Digital that while it may not have been exactly clear in the moment what the intelligence collection meant, with the benefit of hindsight, it predicted the FBI's next move "with alarming specificity." "Ultimately, the release of the classified annex will lend more credibility to the assertion that there was a coordinated plan inside the U.S. government to help the Clinton campaign stir up controversy connecting Trump to Russia," the source, who was granted anonymity to discuss sensitive intelligence matters that have not yet been made public, told Fox News Digital.Dan Bongino says there is so much corruption he can't barely keep it together.
FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino posted a lengthy message on his official X account in which he vowed to bring the American people "the truth" after saying that he had learned things that "shocked" him. "During my tenure here as the Deputy Director of the FBI, I have repeatedly relayed to you that things are happening that might not be immediately visible, but they are happening," Bongino wrote. "What I have learned in the course of our properly predicated and necessary investigations into these aforementioned matters, has shocked me down to my core. We cannot run a Republic like this. I'll never be the same after learning what I've learned." It is unclear what exactly Bongino was referring to in his post.
Dan Bongino
@FBIDDBongino During my tenure here as the Deputy Director of the FBI, I have repeatedly relayed to you that things are happening that might not be immediately visible, but they are happening. The Director and I are committed to stamping out public corruption and the political weaponization of both law enforcement and intelligence operations. It is a priority for us. But what I have learned in the course of our properly predicated and necessary investigations into these aforementioned matters, has shocked me down to my core. We cannot run a Republic like this. I'll never be the same after learning what I've learned. We are going to conduct these righteous and proper investigations by the book and in accordance with the law. We are going to get the answers WE ALL DESERVE. As with any investigation, I cannot predict where it will land, but I can promise you an honest and dignified effort at truth. Not "my truth," or "your truth," but THE TRUTH. God bless America, and all those who defend Her.
Respectfully,
Dan

SHOCK: National Crime Rate Falls as Gang-Members, Child Molesters, R*pists and Killer Illegal Aliens Are Deported
I don't know how, but this must be Racism.
If some of you are Racism Experts and can explain to me why this is Racism, please let me know. I just know it's Racism but can't figure out how. Is it Racist to object to violent crime? I think it is. Cincinnati's Big Fat DEI Police Chief sure seems to think it is.Pour one out for all the innocent, good Americans who have been killed by criminal foreign invaders that the Democrat Party (and also, the vanquished GOPe) invited into the country to murder us and our children.
FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL--Violent crime is on the decline in the U.S. following the arrest and removal of criminal illegal aliens, the Department of Homeland Security announced Monday. "Under President [Donald] Trump and [DHS Secretary Kristi] Noem, our law enforcement is working at lightning speed to remove violent criminal illegal aliens from the U.S.," Tricia McLaughlin, DHS assistant secretary, said in a press release given first to The Daily Signal. "Every single day we are arresting gang members, murderers, pedophiles, and violent predators," McLaughlin said, adding, "70% of [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] arrests are of illegal aliens who have been convicted or charged with a crime. These arrests and deportations of criminal illegal aliens are having real impact on public safety." During the first six months of 2025, homicides fell 17% across 30 U.S. cities when compared with the first half 2024, according to the Council on Criminal Justice, an independent research organization, which has just published its midyear report on crime trends in U.S. cities. In the first six months of 2025, there were "10% fewer reported aggravated assaults, 21% fewer gun assaults, 10% fewer sexual assaults, and 3% more domestic violence incidents" when compared to the time last year, according to the report. Robberies are also down 20% and carjacking fell by 24%. Vehicle theft was rising from the summer of 2020 through 2023, according to the Council on Criminal Justice, but the trend began reversing in 2024. Since Trump returned to office on Jan. 20, the Trump administration has arrested nearly 300,000 illegal aliens and deported more than 239,000, according to DHS.
A pair of Wisconsin teens who were killed in a wrong-way drunk driving crash caused by an illegal migrant "would be alive today" if she hadn't been allowed into the US, President Trump's Department of Homeland Security raged in an online post Monday. Honduran national Noelia Saray Martinez-Avila, 30, was drunk and driving her SUV the wrong direction on a highway outside Madison, when she allegedly struck a vehicle and killed the two teens on July 20, according to police. Passenger Hallie Helgeson, 18, died at the scene, while 19-year-old Brady Heiling, who was behind the wheel, ultimately succumbed to his injuries five days later. "Hallie Helgeson and Brady Heiling had their whole lives ahead of them--and they would still be alive today if it weren't for Noelia Saray Martinez-Avila--a criminal illegal alien from Honduras," DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement. But it wasn't Martinez-Avila's first rodeo. She was convicted of driving drunk in November 2020 and has several subsequent traffic violations for driving without a license, speeding, following too closely and inattentive driving, according to the Wisconsin State Journal. Due to her rap sheet, Martinez-Avila was supposed to have a device in her car that blocks the engine from starting if the driver has alcohol in their system, according to the local news outlet. However, she didn't have the device installed at the time of the fatal crash. "Martinez-Avila recklessly drove the wrong way on a highway while intoxicated and killed these two teens." DHS also raged over sanctuary policies in Dane County, where Madison is located. "Unfortunately, this sanctuary jurisdiction has a history of not honoring ICE arrest detainers often leading to the release of murderers and other heinous criminals," McLaughlin said. Cops found multiple open beer cans in the Chevy Suburban, which reeked of booze, according to the State Journal. Martinez-Avila also had glassy eyes and couldn't complete a sobriety test.A San Francisco helped this illegal alien criminal avoid capture by ICE by issuing a retraining order against federal agents enforcing the law of the land. Then he attempted to steal a car with a three-year-old inside of it.

Revealed: Formerly Classified Archive of the Durham Report Reveals That George Soros' Operatives Were Coordinating With Hillary Clinton -- and the FBI? -- to Push the False Russiagate Op and the Subsequent Coup
Leonard Bernardo, a senior vice president in George Soros' communist subversion organization "The Open Society Foundation," wrote to Hillary Clinton's foreign policy advisor to tell them that the Russiagate Op would "distract from her missing emails" scandal and also that the FBI would "pour more oil on the fire" to boost the op.
Newly-declassified so-called Clinton Plan intelligence included intercepted communications from a George Soros ally which suggested that Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign against Donald Trump was plotting a "long-term affair to demonize" Trump by linking him to Russian leader Vladimir Putin, and that the Clinton campaign expected that "the FBI will put more oil into the fire." The revelations, including intercepted purported communications from Leonard Benardo, a top official at George Soros's Open Society Foundations, and communications by Clinton foreign policy adviser Julianne Smith, provide new insight into information that the U.S. intelligence community received in July 2016 -- just before the FBI launched its politicized Crossfire Hurricane investigation. The bombshell allegations about a plot to falsely link Trump to Putin in an effort to distract from Clinton's classified emails scandal are found within a formerly classified but now largely-unredacted appendix from special counsel John Durham's 2023 report on the origins and conduct of the Russiagate investigation. The intelligence received by the U.S. intelligence community, including the FBI, included information and analysis from purported emails from Benardo which detailed an alleged plot by Smith and others, with the approval of Clinton herself. "During the first stage of the campaign, due to lack of direct evidence, it was decided to disseminate the necessary information through the FBI-affiliated...technical structures... in particular, the Crowdstrike and ThreatConnect companies, from where the information would then be disseminated through leading U.S. publications," the classified annex said. "The media analysis on the DNC hacking appears solid.... Julie [Campaign Advisor] says it will be a long-term affair to demonize Putin and Trump. Now it is good for a post-convention bounce. Later the FBI will put more oil into the fire." The purported emails added: "HRC [Hillary Rodham Clinton] approved [Campaign adviser Julie's] idea about Trump and Russian hackers hampering U.S. elections. That should distract people from her own missing emails." "The point is making the Russian play a U.S. domestic issue... In absence of direct evidence, Crowdstrike and ThreatConnect will supply the media, and GRU [Russia's Main Intelligence Directive] will hopefully carry on to give more facts," the alleged emails from Benardo said. Durham said there is evidence to believe the Clinton Plan intelligence was authentic and that the Clinton campaign did carry out such a dirty trick. "The office's review of certain communications involving Smith provided possible additional support ... to the notion that the Clinton campaign was engaged in an effort or plan in late July 2016 to encourage scrutiny of Trump's purported ties to Russia, and that the [Clinton] campaign might have wanted or expected the FBI or other agencies to aid that effort ('put more oil into the fire') by commencing a formal investigation of the DNC hack," Durham's classified annex stated. The Durham classified annex also assessed that "it is a logical deduction [REDACTED] [Julianne] Smith was, at minimum, playing a role in the Clinton campaign's efforts to tie Trump to Russia" and that the communications reviewed by the special counsel "certainly lends at least some credence that such a plan existed."
As mentioned in the sidebar, former CIA case officer (and an important figure in the capture of high-value Al Qaeda terrorists like al-Zawahri) John Kirikou says that CIA agents are legally obligated to go to the Inspector General if other agents are politicizing intelligence. This whistleblower did go to the IG -- and was apparently ignored. This may be why so few other agents blew the whistle -- because they knew that the agency was so corrupted that there were literally no uncorrupted high-ranking officials or Inspector Generals they could turn to without becoming targets of the Russiagate coupists themselves.
EXCLUSIVE: Clapper Crew Threatened Whistleblower Who Refused To Sign Off On Fabricated Intel Assessment 'You need to TRUST ME on this,' Clapper's crony told the analyst, saying he 'would need to demonstrate [his] ability to "outgrow"' the refusal to sign off on assessments he did not concur with.
A crony of then-Director of National Intelligence (DNI) James Clapper threatened to withhold a promotion from a senior intelligence official unless he concurred in the fake Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) on Russia's meddling in the 2016 election, notes obtained exclusively by The Federalist show. The notes made public for the first time today recount a conversation the top analyst in the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) had with an unnamed superior who worked closely with the then-Director James Clapper, according to sources familiar with the document. ...
Those notes capture the analyst claiming in early January that his supervisor told him, "There is reporting you are not allowed to see," adding that "if you saw it, you would agree" with the ICA. After noting he concurred "with varying confidence with most of the 2017 ICA's Key Judgements," the analyst explained that he "would need to review any reporting myself in order to consider it."
"You need to TRUST ME on this," Clapper's crony countered, stating to the analyst he "would need to demonstrate [his] ability to 'outgrow'" his refusal to sign off on assessments he did not share, in order to be recommended for a promotion. The analyst remained firm, according to the notes, which led his exacerbated superior to reply, "I need you to say you agree with these judgements, so that DIA will go along with them!"
The DIA is the Department of Defense's "Defense Intelligence Agency," and the notes explain that ODNI sought "to bring DIA on board as an additional IC Agency signing on to the 2017 ICA." The ODNI whistleblower then relayed that the conversation turned to the "DIA's supposed trust in me, and the necessity of me proving my 'corporate IC officer' bona-fides by doing what it took to bring DIA on board ..." The analyst refused to alter his assessment, and the DIA did not join the CIA, FBI, and National Security Agency (NSA) in signing off on the final non-compartmented versions of the ICA. "I remember this conversation very clearly," the analyst explained, stressing "it was a difficult situation and I listened, and chose my responses, with care." "I was aware that I was defying the [National Intelligence Officer's] direction to me (to misrepresent my views to DIA) based on a conscious decision to adhere to IC standards, tradecraft, and ethics," the notes concluded.
