Federal Agents Bust California Human Smuggling Ring That Allegedly Involved 20,000 People

When liberals hear the phrase “mass migration,” they seem to think of it as an opportunity to virtue signal about how welcoming they are to foreigners.

For conservatives and other supporters of President Donald Trump, however, that phrase conjures realistic images of horrors for everyone involved.

According to Fox News, federal agents disrupted a massive human smuggling operation on Friday when they arrested two Guatemalan men accused of trafficking 20,000 illegal immigrants into the United States since 2019.

The arrests occurred in downtown Los Angeles, California.

Eduardo Domingo Renoj-Matul and Cristobal Mejia-Chaj now face the possibility of the death penalty if convicted.

The smuggling operation, which included two other defendants, Jose Paxtor-Oxlaj and Helmer Obispo-Hernandez, featured elements akin to kidnapping and extortion.

For instance, the defendants allegedly charged $15,000 to $18,000 for safe passage into the United States. But that passage also allegedly included unexpected charges for transport across the U.S., and the smugglers kept migrants who could not pay as hostages in order to extort more money from their families back home.

U.S. Attorney Joseph McNally explained the significance of the arrests.

“Kash Patel and Pam Bondi Will Learn About This… I Suspect Heads Will Roll” — Attorney Ty Clevenger Responds After FBI Refuses to Release Seth Rich Records on March 10

The corrupt FBI has once again refused to release crucial records related to the 2016 murder of Democratic National Committee (DNC) staffer Seth Rich.

Attorney Ty Clevenger, who has been battling for years to obtain these documents, reported that the FBI is stonewalling yet again, refusing to comply with his Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.

Rich was murdered in Washington, D.C., in the summer of 2016, shortly before WikiLeaks released the infamous Clinton emails.

On Monday, Clevenger took to X to reveal that the FBI will not be releasing Seth Rich-related records as expected on March 10th. Instead, the corrupt bureau plans to provide only a Vaughn index—a limited document listing withheld files and the reasons for their concealment.

Norway Disavows Private Company Refusing to Fuel American Ships & Russia Attacks Supply Line

A private Norwegian fuel supplier Haltbakk Bunkers, has said after the way Zelensky was treated by Trump, they are cutting off all fuel for American Ships. The Norwegian government has disavowed that policy, assuring the United States this is not a government policy and that American ships will be refueled, contrary to the statement of Haltbakk Bunkers.

Meanwhile, since Zelensky has refused to accept any cease-fire, we should expect to see the fighting now escalate. Russia has now attacked a cargo ship, Swiss-owned MSC LEVANTE F, a Panama-flagged, with missiles to “sink” it after they received reliable information that the vessel carried British weapons to aid Ukraine that included drones and weaponry loaded in Turkey before being taken to the Ukrainian city of Odesa. This demonstrates that Zelensky’s refusal to accept any cease-fire warrants an escalation that will now target the Ukrainian supply line. This is a standard military tactic, and it is surprising that Russia has waited so long to take this step.

Serbian Opposition Throw Smoke Grenades and Tear Gas at Fellow Members of Parliament — One Lawmaker in Critical Condition

Things may get heated in Congress, but never do they fall apart like this.

Opposition lawmakers in Serbia threw smoke grenades and tear gas at fellow parliamentarians in a show of opposition to the government and to express their support for current student protests.

The demonstrations were a response to the collapse of a roof at a train station several months ago that killed 15 people and now threatens to bring down the country’s government.

The attack took place during a legislative session after the ruling coalition, led by the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS), approved the parliamentary agenda.

As the agenda was approved, several opposition politicians rushed toward the parliamentary speaker, clashing with security guards.

Other individuals then threw smoke grenades and tear gas, covering the room in black and pink smoke.

Two people were injured by the attack, according to House Speaker Ana Brnabic, with one suffering a stroke and currently in critical condition.

“The parliament will continue to work and to defend Serbia,” she told the session.

Radical Reconstruction and State Omnipotence

In his book Omnipotent Government, Ludwig von Mises traces the shift in Europe from individualism to state omnipotence, highlighting the disastrous effects of empowering government to run every aspect of social and economic life:

Men now seem eager to vest all powers in governments, i.e., in the apparatus of social compulsion and coercion. They aim at totalitarianism, that is, conditions in which all human affairs are managed by governments. They hail every step toward more government interference as progress toward a more perfect world; they are confident that the governments will transform the earth into a paradise.

That insight aptly encapsulates the centralization of government power during the Reconstruction Era of 1865 to 1877 in the American South. The Radical Republicans saw the federal government as essential to the daunting task of rebuilding the south. William Dunning describes the devastation caused by the war, “the ravaged territory of the Confederacy, [as] the ancient social structure lay in obvious and irremediable ruin.” Particularly in “the heart of the Confederacy, the cotton states proper…chaos was universal.” In addition to the casualties of war, much of the South had been burned to the ground by General Sherman’s armies. The organization of labor was in disarray. While some emancipated slaves stayed at their usual work, others “wandered aimless but happy through the country, [and] found endless delight in hanging about the towns and Union camps.” The challenge of social and economic reconstruction was not inconsiderable.

Pam Bondi Announces She Received a ‘TRUCKLOAD’ of Epstein Documents from SDNY After Being Misled by FBI

Attorney General Pam Bondi revealed in a bombshell interview with Sean Hannity on Monday that Kash Patel’s FBI has finally received a truckload of previously withheld Jeffrey Epstein documents from the Southern District of New York (SDNY).

Last Thursday’s so-called “Epstein Files: Phase One” was a colossal disappointment — heavily redacted pages handed over to a select group of MAGA influencers.

Bondi had hyped the release on Fox News with Jesse Watters the night before, promising “flight logs, names, and a lot of information” about Epstein’s depraved criminal network.

Conservatives braced for a bombshell that would finally unmask the elite swamp creatures tied to the notorious pedophile. Instead, they got a dud.

Appearing on Life, Liberty & Levin with Mark Levin, Bondi dropped the hammer: she’d been misled.

“I was assured 120 pages was all there was,” she told Levin. “I kept saying, ‘There has to be more.’ Kash Patel asked the same thing and got the same line. Then a whistleblower tipped me off—SDNY was sitting on thousands of pages.”

The FBI initially handed over only a few hundred pages, far less than expected. However, a whistleblower alerted Bondi that the bulk of the Epstein files were actually sitting in SDNY. Bondi set a firm deadline: Friday at 8 a.m. for all remaining documents to be turned over.

Chrystia Freeland Canada Needs to Arm Nuclear Against the USA

Chrystia Freeland, Klaus Schwab’s stooge, has gone rogue and is pitching to become the next prime minister of Canada. She claims that the world is looking to Canada to be the new leader of the Free World. She is advocating joining with NATO against the United States, with Britain and France adding as nuclear powers, all to protect this leftist agenda because they know they are losing support globally. She said:

“The US is turning predator, and so what Canada needs to do is work closely with our democratic allies, our military allies. I would start with our Nordic partners, specifically Denmark who is also being threatened, and our NATO European allies. I would be sure that France and Britian were there who possess NUCLEAR WEAPONS and I will be working urgently with these partners to build a closer security relationship that guarantees our security in a time when United States can be a threat.”

New York FBI Field Office Head Forced Out Days After His Office Was Revealed to Have Been Hiding Thousands of Epstein Documents

There has been a significant shake-up within the FBI as one of its top officials has been forced out.

NBC News reported Monday that James Dennehy, the head of the FBI’s New York office, threw in the towel just days after his office was revealed to have been hiding thousands of Epstein documents.

“Late Friday, I was informed that I needed to put my retirement papers in today, which I just did,” Dennehy wrote in an email obtained by NBC. “I was not given a reason for this decision.”

Two sources confirmed to NBC that Dennehy was given the choice between getting fired or resigning. He chose the latter.

She later announced that a key FBI official involved in withholding these critical documents “will not be working for us anymore.” Was it Dennehy?

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Attorney General Pam Bondi revealed that the FBI was withholding thousands of Epstein files. She ordered the FBI to provide the complete Epstein files by Friday morning, February 28, and directed an immediate investigation into the oversight.

Last Thursday’s much-hyped release of “The Epstein Files: Phase One” fell flat for many Americans hungry for the truth. The 120-page dump, handed over to a select group of MAGA influencers, was a heavily redacted dud—mostly rehashed information previously seen.

NIH Redacts Nearly 2,500 Pages Of Records On Wireless Radiation Studies

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) refuses to reveal nearly 2,500 pages of records related to the National Toxicology Program’s (NTP) decision to shut down its research on how wireless radiation affects human health, according to an investigation by The Defender.

In January 2024, the NTP announced it had no plans to further study the effects of cellphone radiofrequency radiation (RFR) on human health — even though the program’s own 10-year, $30 million study, completed in 2018, found “clear evidence” of cancer and DNA damage.

In April 2024, Children’s Health Defense (CHD) filed requests to the NIH under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to obtain records related to why the government shut down the research.

Miriam Eckenfels, director of CHD’s Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR) & Wireless Program said, “First and foremost, we want the science done.”

Zelenskyy Caught Red-Handed Misleading the United States

In a bombshell revelation that shouldn’t surprise anyone paying attention to the Ukraine conflict, we now have evidence that President Zelenskyy has been misleading the United States about his dealings with our European allies. This deception runs deep, and President Trump is having none of it.

Retired U.S. Army Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer dropped this truth bomb during a recent Newsmax interview, revealing that a “battle of dueling narratives” exists between the White House and Ukraine over a minerals deal.

During the interview, Shaffer revealed that mere days before Trump’s inauguration, “the British signed an agreement with Ukraine to have exclusive rights to those [mineral rights] deals.”

“You can go check it out,” he said. “This is on the British UK website. It talks about this 100-year Ukraine and the U.K. signed a 100-year deal over security guarantees and economic development.”
