EPA working with DOJ, FBI on NGO corruption after eight groups tied to ‘gold bars’ scheme

By Sean Moran | Breitbart Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin detailed on The Alex Marlow Show how the Biden administration protected $20 billion in “gold bars” meant for leftist NGOs, many of them with connections to the Biden administration. Zeldin sent shockwaves in mid-February after he had pledged to recover $20 billion in taxpayer funds that had been sent by the Biden administration to climate change projects and other pet projects of Democrat staffers. The EPA Administrator at the time likened it to “throwing gold bars off the Titanic,” saying that it was a “rush job with reduced oversight.” READ THE FULL STORY AT BREITBART

Kittle: Patel’s FBI could shine light on Nashville trans school shooter’s manifesto

By  M.D. Kittle | Commentary, The Federalist For those who believe politically weaponized justice is injustice, Pam Bondi running the Department of Justice and Kash Patel at the helm of the FBI feels like a warm spring breeze after a brutally cold winter. For those who turned federal law enforcement into the Stasi and cheered on the myriad abuses (I’m looking at you Schiff, you weasel), things are about to get, well, difficult.  There’s much to look forward to in the reckoning that Trump 2.0 is bringing to the people who transformed America’s DOJ into a banana republic. It’s long past time for accountability and, hopefully, justice served to the wicked.  Transparency is absolutely essential in that pursuit. Patel could go a long way on that front by ...

Pam Bondi says FBI lied to her about turning over all of the Epstein files

By  Ashe Schow | Daily Wire In a letter to FBI Director Kash Patel, Attorney General Pam Bondi accused the bureau of lying to her about turning over its files on millionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Bondi sent the letter on Thursday, after she said she learned from a source Wednesday night that she hadn’t received all the Epstein files despite the FBI’s repeated assurances that she had. “Before you came into office, I requested the full and complete files related to Jeffrey Epstein,” Bondi wrote to Patel, according to a copy of the letter posted to X by Michael Shellenberger. “In response to this request, I received approximately 200 pages of documents, which consisted primarily of flight logs, Epstein’s list of contacts, and a list of victims’ names and phone numbers.” R...

Senate Judiciary Committee advances Kash Patel as FBI director, will face vote in closed Senate executive session

By The Post Millennial The Senate took a procedural step Tuesday toward confirming Kash Patel as FBI director, voting 48-45 along party lines to begin debate on his nomination. The final confirmation vote is expected later this week. Republican senators have expressed strong support for Patel, 44, citing his background as a prosecutor and national security aide in the first Trump administration. They have also praised his commitment to addressing concerns about political “weaponization” within the FBI and refocusing the agency on its core law enforcement responsibilities. During Patel’s confirmation hearings, he vowed to end the weaponization of the FBI as well as censorship coming from the agency and said, “If confirmed I will work with congress to expose any corrupt activities ...

FBI agents may be source of leak on immigration operations like Aurora, ‘Border Czar’ Tom Homan says

By Kenneth Schrupp | The Center Square Border Czar Tom Homan says information indicates the FBI may have leaked details of an immigration enforcement operation to the media, thereby “putting officers at risk.” He says the U.S. Department of Justice has opened a criminal investigation into the matter and may criminally prosecute the responsible individuals. “[The Attorney General’s office] has promised not only will this person lose their job and pension, but they will go to jail,” said Homan in a televised interview Monday on Fox, where he also noted the possibility of an “ambush” due to the leaking of operational details READ THE FULL STORY AT THE CENTER SQUARE

U.S. District Judge Cobb, a Biden appointee, temporarily blocks release of FBI Jan. 6 agent list

By Ryan Knappenberger | Courthouse News A federal judge on Thursday issued a temporary stay to prevent the Justice Department from publicizing or sharing with other government agencies the results of an internal survey listing the FBI employees who worked on the Jan. 6, 2021, and classified documents case. U.S. District Judge Jia Cobb issued the administrative stay until she could hear further arguments at an 11 a.m. Friday hearing and determine whether the Justice Department would agree to a consent order and provide the agents prior notice before taking any steps to share the list outside the department. The Joe Biden appointee scheduled Thursday’s hearing, which required several hourslong breaks for the parties to confer in an effort to hash out a consent order, to determine wh...

Dems worry Kash Patel could weaponize FBI against political enemies like they did

By Beth Brelje | The Federalist In a Senate confirmation hearing on Thursday, feckless Democrat senators grilled Kash Patel, President Donald Trump’s nominee for FBI director, trying to paint him as a Trump henchman hellbent on seeking revenge for all the crap the FBI put Trump and American citizens through. It’s no wonder they are worried; the nation has seen how the FBI has been turned into a political weapon, and Democrats don’t want it pointed at them. The Federalist has written extensively about corruption within the FBI under Democrats’ watch, including the Russia collusion hoax that Patel helped disprove; the gun-toting dawn raids on the homes of nonviolent citizens; the overreaching invasion of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home; and the tampering in the federal election by conceali...

Davidson: The legacy of Jan. 6 should be massive reform of the FBI and DOJ

By John Daniel Davidson | Commentary, The Federalist Monday marked the four-year anniversary of Jan. 6, 2021, when tens of thousands of peaceful Trump supporters demonstrated outside the U.S. Capitol and a small number of them clashed with police before entering the Capitol itself. For Democrats and the left, Jan. 6 is the events that vindicates their hatred of Donald Trump and his supporters. They would have us believe it was among the darkest days in our nation’s history, when democracy itself hung in the balance and violent insurrectionists nearly prevented the peaceful transfer of power. Many of them actually believe and still repeat, as Sen. Amy Klobuchar did on Monday, that pro-Trump rioters killed police officers on Jan. 6. Above all, they insist that President Trump was...

FBI checks, ethics paperwork threaten to slow down Trump confirmations

By Alexander Bolton | The Hill Republican sources on Capitol Hill warn that President-elect Trump’s nominees may be delayed because of paperwork holdups and the slow start of FBI background checks, creating obstacles for the speedy confirmation of Trump’s national security team. Senate Republican leaders called on colleagues to swiftly confirm Trump’s national security team in the wake of the suspected terror attack in New Orleans on New Year’s Day, but those pleas for fast action are running up against procedural thickets in the Senate, where even routine business can take days or weeks to get done. As of Thursday evening, only Pete Hegseth, Trump’s nominee to head the Defense Department, had the date of his confirmation hearing announced — Jan. 14. READ THE FULL STORY AT THE ...
