Julie Kelly: Meet New #Resistance Hero Denise Cheung

The latest DOJ official to resign is Denise Cheung. She resigned instead of following orders and investigating -- just investigating -- whether Biden's $20 billion giveaway of taxpayer funds to leftwing "non-profits" and Democrat cronies like Stacey Abrams was legal.

She decided, without any investigation, that it was legal. She also refused to follow orders and demand that the banks holding this money freeze the funds. She defied orders and instead "recommended" they do so, leaving them free to give away the money before we could take a look at these issues.

She was told to do her job or resign. She resigned.

And immediately became the media's latest #Resistance HER-o.

In what has become the latest trend in #Resistance fashion, another government lawyer made a splashy exit from the Department of Justice this week. Denise Cheung, chief of the criminal division for the U.S. Attorney's office in Washington, sent a three-page letter to her boss explaining why she would have to quit rather than follow orders to pursue an investigation into potential wrongdoing tied to the Biden administration.
...
The so-called Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund first got attention when Lee Zeldin, the new Environmental Protection Agency administrator, laid out details of the jaw-dropping arrangement in a video posted last week. "Roughly twenty billion of your tax dollars were parked at an outside financial institution by the Biden EPA," Zeldin said on February 12. "This scheme was the first of its kind in EPA history and it was purposefully designed to obligate all the money in a rush job with reduced oversight."
Zeldin noted that the money, now understood to be "parked" at Citibank, was awarded to eight climate nonprofits who then "doled out your money to NGOs and others at their discretion with far less transparency." He referred the matter to both the DOJ and EPA inspector general:
There is no question about the political origins of the fund; the Biden White House touted the program with great fanfare months before the 2024 election. During a campaign stop last April, Kamala Harris announced the eight chosen winners of the $20 billion climate lottery. Harris also noted the unique nature of the arrangement, boasting that "for the first time in history, we are providing tens of billions of dollars directly to community lenders to finance local climate projects. This is a novel approach, it is actually the first time we have taken this approach."

There are no limits on how they money can be spent or for what purposes -- it's a literal slush-fund give-away to leftwing groups to use the money as they choose.

...
The unusual nature of the arrangement alone--a major bank rather than Congress handling a big chunk of tax dollars with no known oversight mechanism established just a few months before the election--should raise the Spidey senses of any federal prosecutor, especially one with a stellar DOJ resume that stretches back more than two decades.

...
Bove additionally sought a letter to Citibank ordering a "freeze" of funds related to the unidentified grant recipient. Cheung then contacted the famously corrupt Washington FBI field office for more guidance; she then concluded that enough evidence supported potential conspiracy and wire fraud charges.
But the letter from the FBI only "recommended" a freeze of the funds.

Is Cheung a Straight Arrow?

Hardly:

Cheung's sanctimony and sudden devotion to careful prosecutorial scrutiny is hard to swallow given her history. After years of helping the DOJ pursue clearly politically motivated investigations against Republicans, Cheung suddenly suffered an alleged attack of conscience when it came to investigating Democrats?
This is, after all, the same Denise Cheung who was part of the DOJ team that initiated the dubious investigation into Donald Trump over Jan 6; brought federal charges against Trump advisors Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro for defying an illicit congressional committee; and helped manage the largest criminal prosecution in Justice Department history resulting in the arrest of nearly 1,600 Americans for the events of Jan 6.
Cheung's "moral, ethical, and legal obligations," as she bragged in her resignation letter, never got in the way of her office's unlawful use of a post-Enron obstruction statute to turn hundreds of J6 protesters into lifelong felons. Or when her office applied federal misdemeanors such as "parading" in the Capitol for the first time against political protesters. Or when her office added terror enhancements to sentencing recommendations in order to throw nonviolent J6ers in federal prison for years. Or when her office sent women in their 70s to jail for protesting outside of abortion clinics.

If you like Julie's work, consider subscribing to her substack.

Now Ed Martin -- who fired Cheung -- sends letters to Charles Schumer and Robert Garcia that he is investigating them for making threats against the President and the President's staffers.

83 Seeing all the insane places our money has been sent, I think it's a great idea to have a "DOGE dividend". Yes, we should apply savings to debt payoff first, but sending money back to taxpayers emphasizes that it is in fact OUR FCKING MONEY. Colorado had the TABOR act before the commies took over; why shouldn't we do something similar at the fed level? And I saw at least one other Moron suggest a tax holiday for this year...

Of course it was a setup but he stupidly took the bait. He can't NOT know that the Capitol brownshirts will have a perpetual raging hardon for him.

96 I can think of worse places to be sent than Huntsville, Alabama. The last time I drove by it seemed nice.

But I am a redneck so that does not count vs the dining and parties of DC.

I used to be in DC often with my husband. Saw these congress critters out dining at the same places. I wanted to mess with them but my husband said no.

After I said I wanted to trip Katherine Sebelius, and he said no, (I mainly just wanted to ask here where the $ from Obamacare was coming from)...a couple of years later he said he should have let me. I'd probably still be in jail.

Now the Dems are forced to dig on in ephemeral issues, things that have no legs. If anyone remembers anything about egg prices in January 2025, it will be that it was a brief spike cause by Biden.

Six months from now, the Ukraine War will be over, Zelenskyy will be in exile, and the people screaming about Putin will be under investigation for stealing aid.

175 Seeing all the insane places our money has been sent, I think it's a great idea to have a "DOGE dividend". Yes, we should apply savings to debt payoff first, but sending money back to taxpayers emphasizes that it is in fact OUR FCKING MONEY. Colorado had the TABOR act before the commies took over; why shouldn't we do something similar at the fed level? And I saw at least one other Moron suggest a tax holiday for this year...
Posted by: Helena Handbasket

I agree. It is a good PR op to tax payers that have been screwed royally for decades to get a little something back. FYI - CO still has TABOR although the commies tried hard to claw it back but lost. I got a measly $100 back this year but it was something.

On Insty someone posted an idea that instead of DOGE, it should have been named the Federal Agency for Financial Oversight. FAFO. Perfect.

The bullying worked fine with Biden and the EU. If he wanted something and got denied, a few months would pass and Biden would give permission. You know that there was a tacit rule agreed on early in the war to limit the fighting to Kharkov and south, because neither side had enough men at the time to guard the front.

223 The bullying worked fine with Biden and the EU. If he wanted something and got denied, a few months would pass and Biden would give permission. You know that there was a tacit rule agreed on early in the war to limit the fighting to Kharkov and south, because neither side had enough men at the time to guard the front. Z would regularly break that red line when he needed good press, or his "Russian insurgents"

Z was told that Trump is a spineless bully, all bluster, no substance, and so he walked right into a yard full of rakes.

One of the most remarkable elements of present-day liberals is their complete ignorance of everything. They don't know who is winning the war in Ukraine, they don't know why black men hate them, and they think that defending trannies in girls' locker rooms is a winning issue.

241 Here is how these grant mechanisms work, according to a friend on the inside who has access to information:
1) The organization that receives the grant has not been in existence very long.
2) The organization is run by people who have a connection to a Democrat administration, and a lot of them receive six-figure salaries.
3) Many of these organizations are based in the DC suburbs, often Maryland.
4) 80-90% of the money is slated to go to unspecified "subrecipients."

Some will see this as a capitulation on the part of SCOTUS, but what I see is them forcing the district judge to clean up this mess and try to justify the retarded TRO in the first place.

In the mean time, the IG will be completely distracted with litigation and a non-factor.

This underlines my point about why these TROs are self-defeating. Okay, you get a pause, but now you have to do the actual work in court and face getting crushed by a Mt. McKinley of precedent showing your order was ludicrous.

EL PASO, Texas (Border Report) — Since the start of the year, border officers in El Paso have encountered more than 90 people attempting to import eggs from Mexico.

On Friday, U.S. Customs and Border Protection warned border crossers to be aware that raw egg imports from Mexico are prohibited.

According to a news release, CBP agriculture specialists have issued 16 civil penalties totaling almost $4,000 linked to the attempted smuggling of prohibited agriculture and food products, including raw eggs.

I do think that some of this relaxing of pressure / rejection of crap argument is because of under the table orders from the Supremes. Even Roberts isn't thrilled with having to publicy crack the whip on the lower judges, so Trump's stat of saying "we will comply but its destroying the executive" while moving to another cesspool to expose the corruption daily is paying off big.

The flu is spread by wild birds, Mallards if I understand it correctly. By culling the flocks it guarantees that no flock will build up resistance to the infection brought by the wild ducks.
However, it will encourage farmers to get the chickens immunized by the newest Pfizer veterinarian grade jab to avoid continual financial disasters. Which will be an incredible windfall for the company since demand for their previous Covid shot has been falling off.
