No Manifesto Destiny

Featured image Today marks six months since Audrey Hale, a woman who thought she was a man, shot her way into the Covenant School in Nashville and gunned down nine-year-olds Hallie Scruggs, William Kinney and Evelyn Dieckhaus, and adults Mike Hill, Katherine Koonce, and Cynthia Peak. Hale, a former student at the school, carefully planned the attack for months. The killer left a manifesto explaining her actions but six months after the »

Why Johnson draws Biden’s fire

Featured image Why did President Biden make a point of disseminating demagogic lies about Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson during Biden’s visit to Milwaukee on Tuesday (see “Translate this”)? It’s the modus operandi of the team that is pulling Biden’s strings, of course, but I think an additional element is at work in this particular case. Biden is lying about Johnson because Johnson has been telling the truth about the corrupt Biden family »

No relation to Minerva McGonagall

Featured image Former FBI Special Agent Charles McGonigal helped kick off the Russia collusion hoax and appears to have been engaged in some serious projection. McGonigal was charged this past January in the Southern District of New York with committing federal crimes in exchange for “concealed payments” for illegal services provided to sanctioned Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska. McGonigal was separately charged with taking $225,000 in cash from a naturalized citizen with business »

The buried FD-1023: Key quotes

Featured image Thanks to Senator Grassley, we can take a look at the FBI’s suppressed — suppressed by the FBI! — FD-1023 in the matter of the Biden family business. John posted the document here. It makes for interesting reading. It is not merely a report of what Burisma insiders told a highly trusted FBI source, it is (or should be) a key investigative document that can be set against known facts »

A Kinsley Gaffe

Featured image A Kinsley gaffe, of course, is when a politician inadvertently tells the truth. So, a footnote to yesterday’s IRS whistleblower hearing: Congressman Kweisi Mfume of Maryland denounces the Republicans’ criticisms of the Department of Justice, the FBI and the IRS. Why? Because it is the job of those agencies to “keep this democracy in check.” That is perhaps, in a single sentence, the clearest statement of the difference between the »

The Wray Ultimatum

Featured image I might have gone further in life if I didn’t think in terms of song lyrics and the titles of Robert Ludlum novels. Fortunately, however, Bob Dylan opened things up for me when he incorporated modernist poetry into his songwriting and the Ludlum titles are adaptable to a variety of circumstances. Yesterday I noted the retired FBI Supervisory Special Agent who has confirmed part of the IRS whistleblower testimony. Both »

Confirming the IRS whistleblowers

Featured image In the matter of the Biden family business and the protection thereof, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer announced that staff conducted a transcribed interview with a former FBI Supervisory Special Agent assigned to the FBI’s Wilmington office and the Biden criminal investigation. Comer let it be known that the former agent confirmed key portions of the IRS whistleblower testimony — i.e., on December 7, 2020, “[t]he night before the »

Where have all the left-wing flowers gone?

Featured image Matt Taibbi has made a valuable contribution to the documentation of the government’s suppression of heterodox and nonconforming speech on Twitter. He is an honest and dogged journalist. I have therefore sought to draw attention to his work in face of such denials and evasions as those to which FBI Director Christopher Wray testified under oath on July 12 before an occasionally showboating congressional committee last week. Taibbi wrote in »

The Secret Service Gives Up

Featured image After an 11-day alleged investigation, the Secret Service announced today that it cannot identify the person who left cocaine in the White House. The Service says that there were no usable finger prints on the bag that held the cocaine, and not enough DNA for an identification. So the investigation is being closed. No one is going to buy this. The general area is under video surveillance, and there is »

Wrinkles of Wray

Featured image FBI Director Christopher Wray testified before the House Ways and Means Committee yesterday. Republican representatives did not distinguish themselves in their ability to wring the truth from Wray in their allotted five minutes. Indeed, they were more or less pitiful. Had they been allotted more time, however, they would still have found themselves up against a hard case. Wray is incorrigible. We know that the FBI was instrumental to the »

Senator Grassley inquires

Featured image Senator Grassley worked over the weekend to crank out some questions for United States Attorney David Weiss in connection with his shambolic “investigation” of Hunter Biden. Senator Grassley has posted his July 9 letter to Weiss online here. The operative principle governing the Weiss investigation seems to have been that no harm was to be done to Hunter or the Biden family business. Indeed, no one was to look too »

Gal Luft speaks

Featured image Miranda Devine’s most recent New York Post column on the Biden family business is “‘Missing’ Biden corruption case witness Dr. Gal Luft details allegations against president’s family in extraordinary video.” The New York Post has published the video on which Devine’s column is based and I have posted it below. The Post draws on Devine’s column to provide the accompanying summary with the video on YouTube: The “missing witness” from »

Sen. Grassley unredacted

Featured image Senator Grassley took to the floor of the Senate to make a statement with several notable items in it on the investigation of the Biden family business and the related FBI’s coverup. The statement is posted here. This is the heart of it (emphasis in original): With respect to the 1023 shown to that House Committee, from what I’ve been told by folks who’ve reviewed it, it’s filled with redactions. »

Why is this man laughing? Devine’s take

Featured image Last week I asked “Why is this man laughing?” President Biden was yukking it up about the House Oversight Committee’s digging on the FBI FD-1023 passing on the allegation that he took a $5 million bribe from a Ukrainian energy company in return for a policy decision when he was vice president. I think Biden is laughing in our face because the fix is in. In her New York Post »

Trump, Biden, and the Collapse of American Institutions

Featured image Last night I was on Sky News Australia’s wonderful Outsiders show. I talked about the corruption of the Department of Justice and the FBI, the most recent criminal charges against Donald Trump and the charges yet to come, and the patent influence peddling of President Joe Biden. It was a hard-hitting segment; I think you will enjoy it: »

Comey’s hip new media tour

Featured image Matt Taibbi posted his subscribers-only assessment of “Jim Comey’s hip new media tour” on May 31 at his Racket News site. On a day when the perversion of American law enforcement is the only story, Comey has earned another moment in the sun. Taibbi’s eloquent derision of Comey and his media hosts is now available in the video narrated by Jared Moore below. Quotable quote: “This stuff makes Central Television »
