The United States of America v. John Roberts

The Supreme Court is under attack. It has been under attack for years, almost exclusively from the left. And by “under attack,” I don’t mean the peaceful criticism. I mean everything from challenges to its legitimacy to outright ignoring its rulings to death threats against conservative justices.

This began years ago. Chief Justice John Roberts initially responded by trying to stay apolitical and by trying to ignore the criticism. When President Barack Obama called him out during his 2010 State of the Union address, Roberts called the stunt “very troubling.” In the last two decades, that has been the entire extent of his pushback against the left.

In the last couple years, leftist district judges and leftist federal judges issue decrees and stays that directly contradict recent rulings from the Supreme Court itself. Last August, Justices Brett Kavanaugh Neil Gorsuch also publicly rebuked lower courts for having to reverse orders from lower courts regarding issues that the Supreme Court (SCOTUS) had already addressed. But not by Roberts.

Last September, a group of anonymous federal judges criticized recent emergency stays that SCOTUS granted. In interviews with NBC News, these judges said such rulings imply that the lower courts are doing shoddy work (yes, that’s the point). One judge quipped, “It’s inexcusable. They don’t have our backs.” Far be it from me to explain to this judge that the job of SCOTUS is not to “have their backs.” It’s John Roberts’ job to explain this to them. And yet, nary a peep.

District Judge Brian Murphy has twice openly flouted SCOTUS decisions. For his obstinacy, Justice Elena Kagan, of all people, publicly rebuked him. But still nothing from Roberts.

Then there is the internal drama.

It burst into the open with the Dobbs decision, which the liberal justices deliberately slow-rolled in an attempt to stave off the inevitable. The problem arises because no SCOTUS decision is binding until the justices’ opinions are finalized and publicized. If a justice happens to die in the interim, then that justice’s vote is nullified.

This rule applies even if a justice dies from assassination. Like, you know, what almost happened to Brett Kavanaugh in June 2022. An armed suspect showed up outside his home, and his presence was made known to the authorities only because the suspect got cold feet and called the police and turned himself in.

The Vindication of Ayaan Hirsi Ali and a Long Overdue Reckoning for the Southern Poverty Law Center

Ayaan Hirsi Ali has been under attack by Muslim groups for more than two decades. Her work in trying to free Muslim women from the tyranny, the beatings, the forced genital mutilation by Muslim men has resulted in death threats against her, too numerous to count.

A close friend and collaborator, Theo van Gogh, was butchered on an Amsterdam street in 2004 by a Muslim terrorist. Suffice it to say that “hate” — real, soul-destroying, all-consuming hate — is something that Hirsi Ali is quite familiar with.

Exposing the truth about Islamic societies, their oppression of women, and virulent antagonism directed against other religions became her life’s work. Yet, despite the target on her back and the need for constant protection from attack, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) branded her an “anti-Muslim extremist.”

“I have lived under armed protection for more than two decades because men with weapons and conviction want me dead—for apostasy; for writing about Islamist-driven antisemitism and the subversive actions of the Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamist groups in the West; for drawing attention to practices such as honor killings and female genital mutilation; for arguing that Muslim women deserve the same protections under the law as other women,” writes Hirsi Ali in The Free Press.

But those crimes by Islamists play a secondary role to the glorious mission of the SPLC. Groups like the Ku Klux Klan, Neo-Nazis, and other violent white supremacists are only players in a massive fundraising game by the SPLC. If individuals like Hirsi Ali are exposed to blood-curdling threats and attempts on her life, that’s just part of the game.

The SPLC placed Ali on a blacklist called “A Journalist’s Manual: Field Guide to Anti-Muslim Extremists,” along with 15 other “anti-Muslim extremists.” It accused her of using “the political bully pulpit to bash Muslims.”

“Maajid Nawaz, a reformed radical who ran a counter-extremism organization, and an array of figures also dedicated to combating Islamism and antisemitism, such as David Horowitz and Daniel Pipes,” were also on the list, according to The Free Press. Nawaz sued the SPLC and won a handsome $3.4 million settlement. The list of “anti-Muslim extremists” quickly disappeared.

But that lawsuit began a collapse of SPLC’s fundraising juggernaut. It was described in a 2000 investigation as the “wealthiest civil rights organization in America.”

MORE TROUBLE FOR SWALWELL: Allegedly Used Campaign Cash to Pay Lawyer Representing Him Against Sexual Misconduct Accusations

The hits just keep coming for disgraced former Congressman Eric Swalwell.

In addition to facing multiple accusations of sexual misconduct and even rape, he is now facing allegations that he used campaign cash to pay a lawyer representing him in these matters. He also reportedly used campaign cash to pay babysitters.

And we’re not talking about small amounts here. We’re talking about tens of thousands of dollars.

The Washington Free Beacon reports:

Eric Swalwell Campaign Paid $40K to Lawyer Representing Him Against Sexual Misconduct Allegations, $22K for Babysitters

Disgraced former Rep. Eric Swalwell (D., Calif.) dipped into his gubernatorial campaign’s war chest to pay an attorney representing him against sexual assault charges and for babysitters for his three children, records show.

According to campaign filings released Thursday, Swalwell’s campaign paid $40,000 to Sara Azari, a veteran criminal defense attorney who specializes in “cases where liberty, livelihood, and reputation are at stake.” It is Swalwell’s first payment to Azari; he has typically relied on other lawyers. Azari is representing the former congressman against allegations that he sexually assaulted a former congressional aide and harassed staffers.

The Manhattan district attorney’s office opened an investigation on April 11 after a former aide alleged that Swalwell sexually assaulted her while she was inebriated after a political event in 2024. The same woman accused Swalwell of raping her while she was drunk in 2019. Swalwell suspended his gubernatorial campaign the same day and resigned from Congress on April 14.

In a statement before the ex-congressman’s resignation, Azari said Swalwell “categorically” denied the assault and harassment allegations, calling them a “calculated and transparent political hit job.” Azari said Swalwell would “pursue every available legal remedy” against his accusers.

Swalwell, who was the frontrunner in the governor’s race before the scandal, also relied heavily on campaign funds to take care of his three children. According to campaign disclosures, Team Swalwell paid around $22,549 in 12 transactions to Swalwell’s longtime nanny, Amanda Barbosa, between January 1 and April 18.

At this point, he will be lucky to stay out of prison.

By the way, have you noticed that the liberal media is no longer interested in talking about Swalwell anymore?

Ilhan Omar Rages at Reporter Who Confronted Her About Financial Disclosure: ‘You’re Stupid’

Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota brushed aside a journalist who asked her to explain how Omar’s net worth on reporting forms could shrink.

Last week, Congressional disclosures reviewed by the Wall Street Journal put Omar’s wealth at somewhere between $18,000 and $95,000. Previous filings put her wealth between $6 million and $30 million, Fox News reported.

Omar’s office has said accounting errors were responsible for the initial estimates, but has never explained them in detail.

A Lindell TV reporter tried to break through the stone wall of vague deflections, but was turned aside. The conversation began with Omar insisting she stood by a past denigration of the reporter, according to a video posted to X.

“I said I absolutely think you’re stupid for asking me anything,” Omar said.

When offered a chance to explain how her wealth could shrink once it became a lightning rod for criticism, she refused.

“I have explained to the American people,” she said, adding, “I have given them the explanation.”

The reporter tried again to get a response. She did.

“I don’t want to tell you jack s***,” Omar said in closing.

“How about that?” Omar said, ending the conversation by telling the journalist, “Have a good day.”

Certified Public Accountant Dan Geltrude, who founded Geltrude & Company in 1995, said Omar cannot shift blame onto others, according to Alpha News.

“Let’s call this for what it is: When a congressperson has to file these financial disclosure forms, they are signing them and by signing them, what are they saying? They are true, complete, and accurate to the best of their knowledge,” Geltrude said.

“So are you telling me that she didn’t notice that her net worth went from 100,000 to 30 million? Don’t blame the accountant. You can’t say you don’t know. Your signature on that form holds you legally accountable,” he said.

“The accountant did not make these numbers up. These numbers were provided in some form for the accountant to prepare the forms,” Geltrude said.

“But again, I go back to she is responsible. So what it tells me is either she misled in some way, or she simply didn’t review the forms. Either way, there is no excuse here … None.”

How the change came about could still be revealed as House Republicans investigate, Fox News wrote.

“Ilhan Omar is even more clueless than I thought if she thinks this financial disclosure revision clears her of suspicion,” Republican Rep. Tom Emmer of Minnesota said.

Corrupt Colorado Judge in Tina Peters Case Caught in a Lie While Claiming He’s Not Biased

The corrupt and biased Judge Matthew Barrett, who sentenced Tina Peters, is caught lying in his letter to the Governor, as he sticks to his erroneous and abusive sentencing of Tina Peters. 

As the days and months go by, the sentencing judge in Tina Peters’ case doubles down on his sentencing of Tina Peters.

Here is Judge Barret during his sentencing of Tina Peters, spewing hateful, biased remarks at Tina. This is difficult for good Christian people to watch, it’s so hateful.

Judge Barrett sentenced Tina Peters to prison after a hateful rage in court. This was one of the worst courtroom rants in US history. The judge prevented Tina from providing evidence that supported her actions, ignored federal statutes like the Supremacy Clause as well as the actions of Federal employees like AG Garland and FBI Head Wray, who joined a conference call regarding Tina before her arrest.

Everything about this case reminds good people of Nazi/communist courts.  It is so difficult to believe that this would happen in this great country.

Yesterday, Judge Barrett filed a response in the case to Tina Peters’ attorneys, claiming he was not biased despite what the video above shows.

Judge Barrett was seething with rage when he sentenced Tina.

Jim Jordan demands SPLC hand over communications with Biden admin

In the wake of the Department of Justice charging the Southern Poverty Law Center with counts that include wire fraud and conspiracy to commit money laundering, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan has demanded that the organization turn over all communications it had with the Biden administration.

The letter to SPLC head Bryan Fair began by noting allegations laid out in the indictment, including that the organization paid $3 million in donor funds to people associated with the Ku Klux Klan, the American Nazi Party, as well as organizers of the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.

The letter stated, “At no point did the SPLC inform its donors that their charitable donations might be used to pay leaders of violent hate groups. To conceal the source of these payments, the SPLC allegedly opened bank accounts under the name of various fictitious entities and transferred funds from those accounts to their informants.”

Citing the indictment, Jordan noted that these entities “were never incorporated, had no bona fide employees, and conducted no actual business.” He added, “Rather, their sole purpose was to enable the SPLC ‘as if the [informants] were receiving money from the fictitious entities rather than receiving donated funds from the SPLC to conduct financial transactions that made it appear.'”

Jordan said that the Judiciary Committee has been conducting oversight regarding the Biden administration’s “close coordination with the SPLC on federal civil rights matters.” Among the things uncovered was “that an internal FBI system contained at least 13 documents, including the Richmond memorandum that labeled traditional Catholics as ‘violent extremists,’ that cited material from the SPLC.”

Ilhan Omar Given May 5th Deadline to Produce Documents on Massive Feeding Our Future Fraud Scandal After Refusing to Appear at Minnesota House Hearing

The Minnesota House Fraud Prevention and State Oversight Committee has given Rep. Ilhan Omar a firm May 5th deadline to turn over all records and communications related to her possible involvement in the infamous Feeding Our Future scandal.

The demand follows Omar’s refusal to appear at a scheduled committee hearing earlier this week, despite being formally invited.

Committee Chair Rep. Kristin Robbins, a Republican, confirmed the congresswoman “ghosted” the panel and failed to respond to multiple outreach attempts.

“The fact that she ghosted us — she would not even respond to multiple inquiries to a state legislature where she used to serve,” Robbins said, according to a report from NewsNation. “I think it shows disdain for Minnesota taxpayers that she’s unwilling to even answer these questions.”

In a formal letter sent to Omar on April 22, Chair Robbins is now requiring:

  • All written and electronic communications between Omar’s office and the convicted owners/operators of Safari Restaurant in Minneapolis (a key Feeding Our Future site where Omar held multiple campaign events).
  • Communications with more than a dozen individuals who have already been convicted in the massive fraud case.
  • Records related to Omar’s sponsorship of the MEALS Act — the 2020 federal legislation that dramatically loosened eligibility rules for child nutrition programs during COVID, which prosecutors say directly enabled the fraud.

If Omar fails to comply, the committee has signaled it will explore further legislative and congressional options, though state lawmakers have limited direct enforcement power over a member of Congress.

The Feeding Our Future case involved the theft of more than $250 million in federal child nutrition funds meant for meals during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Prosecutors have described it as one of the largest fraud schemes in American history.

Much of the money went to luxury cars, jewelry, real estate, and even overseas accounts, primarily funneled through Minnesota-based nonprofit organizations tied to the local Somali community.

Safari Restaurant was identified as a major “meal site” that submitted millions in fraudulent claims. Omar has long had public ties to the restaurant, including holding campaign events there and appearing there to promote related programs.

The Minnesota House committee has repeatedly accused Omar of helping enable the fraud through her sponsorship of the MEALS Act, which removed key guardrails on reimbursements for meal providers.

“She created the conditions that allowed all these bad actors to come in and bill for thousands of meals a day,” Robbins said. “One little tiny restaurant serving 5,000 meals a day, seven days a week — it was incomprehensible numbers.”

Omar has not publicly responded to the committee’s deadline or her refusal to appear at the hearing.

‘Our candidates are fat Jewish Zionists!’ Trump aide Paul Ingrassia under fire again as leaked group chat reveals slur-filled rant targeting fellow Republican with vile AI-altered photo

A Trump administration official with a history of inflammatory remarks is once again under fire after newly leaked texts appear to show him ranting about fellow Republicans for supporting ‘fat Jewish Zionists’, the Daily Mail can exclusively reveal.

In the explosive messages obtained by the Daily Mail, Paul Ingrassia, the then White House liaison to the Department of Homeland Security, lashes out in a group chat with other Trump aides, titled ‘Team DOJ/DHS/WH’.

The exchange – which took place around April 2025 – escalated after a Justice Department employee sent a text fuming: ‘How the f**k are we losing Wisconsin‘, before adding: ‘Republicans are so stupid and lazy.’ 

The complaint was likely referring to Wisconsin’s 2025 Supreme Court election, in which liberal circuit judge Susan Crawford defeated Catholic, Republican circuit judge and former state attorney general Brad Schimel.

Ingrassia, a 30-year-old attorney and Trump loyalist, then chimed in with an anti-Semitic comment taking aim at Florida congressman Randy Fine, a pro-Israel Republican who had been elected that same day. 

‘It’s because our candidates are fat Jewish Zionist f**ks,’ Ingrassia replied, after sending an altered, unflattering image of Fine speaking at an event. 

The photo showed Fine, a proudly Jewish candidate, addressing a crowd with a grotesquely bulging stomach and baggy jeans.

‘That’s our candidate?!?’ the DOJ staffer replied incredulously, apparently not recognizing the newly elected congressman representing Florida’s 6th congressional district. 

Ingrassia’s lawyer Edward Andrew Paltzik said: ‘These accusations against Mr. Ingrassia are false and fabricated. No such group chat called ‘Team DOJ/DHS/WH’ exists on his phone.’

The Daily Mail has verified that the original photo of Fine was taken at an RNC meeting in Marion County, Florida in January 2025, but had been altered with AI to make him appear significantly larger. 

In a statement to the Daily Mail, Fine said: ‘I hope these text messages are fake. But if they are not, I know President Trump has a zero tolerance for antisemitism and will fire those involved immediately.’ 

Ingrassia’s text tirade, leaked to the Daily Mail, is not the first example of Ingrassia getting embroiled in controversy over his remarks.

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna Demands Full Pardon for U.S. Special Forces Hero Prosecuted by DOJ for ‘Insider Trading’ on Maduro Raid – “Skewed Justice” While Congress Members Illegally Profit Every Single Day

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna is demanding a full pardon for a U.S. Special Forces soldier now facing decades in prison after allegedly profiting from classified information tied to the takedown of Venezuelan strongman Nicolás Maduro.

The soldier, identified as Gannon Ken Van Dyke, was indicted by the Department of Justice on Thursday.

According to the DOJ, Van Dyke, an active-duty Army soldier stationed at Fort Bragg, participated in the planning and execution of a covert mission dubbed “Operation Absolute Resolve,” which resulted in the capture of Maduro earlier this year.

Prosecutors allege that Van Dyke used his access to classified intelligence to place wagers on the prediction platform Polymarket, ultimately netting approximately $409,000 in profits.

Read the Shocking Story of A Obama and Hillary Criminal Scandal, Conspiracy and Coverup- That Until Now No One Knew About. I Have the American Hero and Whistleblower Who is a Witness to the Crime and is Willing to Testify.

This is a shocking story that every American needs to read.

More importantly, this is a story that President Trump and whoever is his new Attorney General of the United States needs to study.

This is a massive Obama and Hillary criminal conspiracy case we’re handing you, wrapped in a bow, ready for prosecution.

I’ve got the whistleblower and witness for you. His name is Bradley Birkenfeld. And he’s not just any whistleblower.

Brad is single-handedly responsible for uncovering the largest and longest-running tax evasion in IRS history.

He’s also the only whistleblower in the history of America to recover $40 billion for the US Treasury and US taxpayers.

That’s more than all the IRS whistleblowers in American history COMBINED.

And because of that, President Trump, my great friend Brad Birkenfeld, is the most deserving candidate for a pardon in the history of presidential pardons. Hint, hint.

Get ready. Here’s his remarkable story.

Brad was a successful Swiss private banker with many of the wealthiest American businessmen and women as his clients. These wealthy Americans were hiding their money offshore, in Swiss banks, to evade U.S. taxes.

After resigning from his comfortable job at UBS in Switzerland, Brad made the decision to voluntarily walk into the DOJ in Washington, DC, to reveal the secret numbered bank accounts of 19,000 Americans hiding tens of billions of dollars at UBS in Switzerland.

It turns out that most of them were large donors to Obama, Hillary, and the Democrat Party.

In one remarkable act, Brad brought down the entire veil of hundreds of years of Swiss banking secrecy.

Do you remember who the leaders of America were back in 2009 when Brad was negotiating with the DOJ? President Obama, Vice President Biden, and Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State.

Brad naturally assumed he would be celebrated, thanked, and protected by the U.S. government for risking his life and giving up his lucrative banking career to help the US government collect tens of billions of dollars in stolen tax money.

Instead, the Obama Department of Justice persecuted and prosecuted Brad, putting him in prison for thirty months. Why would they do that?

To protect thousands of Democrat donors in these files of tax cheats. They didn’t want the files. They wanted to protect their big Democrat donors. They wanted to shut Brad up.

As a result of Brad’s testimony and evidence handed to the DOJ, not only was $40 billion recovered by the IRS, but 130 Swiss banks signed formal agreements and were fined by the US government to end their decades-long criminal conduct.

Three IRS amnesty programs were implemented, resulting in over 100,000 (and counting) US citizens now in tax compliance.

UBS agreed to a deferred prosecution agreement, paid a $780 million fine to the U.S. Treasury Dept. (a slap on the wrist to them), and agreed to release the names of only 4,700 American tax evaders. That’s out of 19,000 tax cheats on Brad’s file.

So, where did the other 14,300 names of tax cheats go? Obama sent Hillary Clinton to Switzerland to negotiate a deal with UBS to erase those names- and in return, Obama and Hillary gave UBS a sweetheart deal.

How evil and criminal was the Obama/Hillary cabal in Washington DC? On the very day my friend Brad was sent to prison (and remember, he is the hero who handed in these names of tax cheats), Obama was playing golf with the Chairman of UBS.

This is how crimes are covered up among friends in Washington DC.

Instead of making Brad a national hero, Obama’s DOJ forced Brad to accept one charge of conspiracy to commit tax fraud and put him in prison for 30 months. This was their way of shutting him up.

In all these years since my friend Brad exposed this massive criminal conspiracy and 19,000 tax cheats, the only person to go to prison is Brad Birkenfeld.
