It Turns Out Fang Fang Wasn’t the Only Chi Com Spy in California Politics

California is fertile ground for what the Chinese Communist Party spies call “elite capture” of American politicians. It didn’t begin or end with California Congressman Eric Swalwell’s Fang Fang, either, not by a long shot. 

There’s Joe and Hunter Biden’s cozy relationship and payoffs from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)-connected corporations; California Senator Dianne Feinstein’s 20-year-long relationship with her aide and chauffeur, the Chinese spy; California Congressman Eric Swalwell’s paramour and political advisor Fang Fang; a former anti-Second Amendment California state senator who brokered guns to the underworld; and now this. 

Now, a campaign manager for a 2022 California city council candidate is in the FBI crosshairs. 

The FBI reported that an unnamed city council member in an undesignated city won office in 2022 with the help of a Chinese spy. Reading the entrails left behind in the somewhat cryptic 24-page indictment, the effort shows the spying happened in San Bernardino’s Chino Hills —since the spy claimed to have lived with the council member. 

The unidentified Chino Hills 2022 City Council candidate, who was an apparent pawn of the Chi-Coms whether he knew it or not, was not indicted. The FBI says the investigation continues.

The council member’s campaign manager, who claimed to live at the candidate’s home, is Mr. Yaoning “Mike” Sun. Sun worked with his PRC handler in L.A., John Chen, and a “Big Boss” in the PRC and acted as unregistered foreign agents in the U.S.

Victor Davis Hanson Calls Out Dems and Media for Hiding Biden’s Condition: ‘Greatest Presidential Fraud and Deception Since Woodrow Wilson’

Victor Davis Hanson, the revered conservative historian and scholar, appeared on the Jesse Watters show on FOX News this week and called out Democrats and the media for hiding Joe Biden’s condition from the American people.

Hanson suggested that it’s the worst presidential scandal since Woodrow Wilson had a stroke in 1919 and the White House hid the news from the public for months.

He also summarized Biden’s entire presidency as nothing more than a stand-in for the real power players in Washington like the Obamas.

Partial transcript by the Western Lensman on Twitter/X:

“This was the greatest presidential fraud and deception since Woodrow Wilson had a stroke in 1919, and Edith Wilson kept that from the American people for 16 months.”

“They appointed Joe Biden as a facade, the Obamas and the hierarchy of the Democratic Party, to play the role of old Joe Biden from Scranton, where they pushed through the most destructive left wing agenda in modern history.”

“And then when they found out he couldn’t even play that role of a waxen effigy, they deposed him in the same abrupt coup manner that they appointed him.”

J6 Committee Star Witness Cassidy Hutchinson Caught in a NEW VICIOUS LIE Where She Stomped on the Trust of a Friend – When Will Miss Cassidy Face Justice?

Their star witness was a serial liar. And they knew this. What does that say about these committee members?

January 6 Select Committee star witness Cassidy Hutchinson is caught in an ongoing war with the truth. Unfortunately for Cassidy, she committed these lies while under oath and therefore she will likely face legal consequences for her actions.

On Thursday Ben Williamson, who previously worked with Cassidy Hutchinson described a phone call he received from Cassidy before her testimony before Congress.

Cassidy claimed she was nervous that her old Republican colleagues, including Mark Meadows, would be mad at her for testifying before the Select Committee.

Ben Williamson assured her they would not be and understood the situation she was in.

Months later Cassidy Hutchinson lied to the committee about the phone call. It appears it was a setup and Ben Williamson was the victim.

Ben shared his story on X.

I haven’t spoken much about the below incident publicly due to ongoing investigations — but given the good work of today’s House Admin report on the J6 Committee and its revelations on possible “witness tampering,” I’d like to share a relevant episode involving another fabrication from the Committee, Liz Cheney, and my former colleague Cassidy Hutchinson.

Almost three years ago, in early 2022, I got a phone call from Cassidy telling me her closed-door deposition with the J6 Committee (under subpoena) was approaching. Cassidy claimed to be worried that our old Trump WH colleagues, including our boss Mark Meadows, might think she was “disloyal” for following a subpoena and showing up to the deposition.

I cut her off mid-convo and responded: “No one will think you’re disloyal just for following a subpoena. And Mark would never, ever ask you to do anything other than the right thing and tell the truth. He wouldn’t think you’re disloyal.” She agreed, and the convo ended perfectly fine.

Months later, Cassidy appeared out of nowhere at her now infamous public J6 hearing, making completely outlandish claims untethered from reality — many of which were rightly disputed or shot down within minutes. But you may also recall that after Cassidy’s appearance, Liz Cheney put up a bizarre anonymous message on a big screen, allegedly received by Cassidy before her (aforementioned) private deposition. Cheney claimed it was evidence of “witness intimidation.”

The anonymous message Cheney displayed read, partly: “He (Meadows) told me you have your deposition tomorrow. He knows you’re loyal, and you’re going to do the right thing when you go in for your deposition.”

Via public news reports, I later learned this was in reference to me. It was a completely twisted, utterly nonsense re-telling of the phone convo where Cassidy had fretted to me about “loyalty.” She (and the Committee) embellished parts of the exchange, made up others, and spun it into a lie that appeared like witness intimidation.

The J6 Committee presented this account as factual — when it wasn’t — and then leaked my name to reporters to create the narrative that I was guilty.

In the weeks and months that followed, I faced accusations of criminal exposure over it – all over nonsense. Members like Dan Goldman publicly accused me of “witness tampering.” The FBI called me in for hours of questioning. Meanwhile, the J6 Committee never once followed up with me or my attorneys to ask me about this interaction before uncritically airing the dishonest version. It was all based on fabrications, yet the J6 Committee never even bothered to get the other side. It’s one of many reasons why none of their claims about President Trump, or frankly anyone else, should ever be believed.

This is just one story in a long list, and relatively, I ended up one of the lucky ones. But I’m glad to see the report today take the J6 Committee and their ‘star witness’ to task. They spread an untold amount of falsehoods about my friends, colleagues, and bosses, and forced many good people to defend themselves in ways they should’ve never had to. I will never forget it.

This is not the first time Cassidy Hutchinson was caught lying to Congress and the January 6 Select Committee.

PLOT TWIST: ABC News Rewards George Stephanopoulos With ‘Multi-Year Contract’ – Days After Trump Inflicted Humiliating Libel Loss

In a surprise move, ABC News has rewarded its anchor George Stephanopoulos with a new contract at the network.

The Los Angeles Times were the first to report that Stephanopoulos, 63, recently agreed to a “new multi-year contract to remain with the ABC News morning program, according to several people familiar with matter who were not authorized to comment publicly.”

No further details were provided about the terms of the contract, such as its length or the size of his pay package.

The Good Morning America host, who rose to political fame as a henchman of former President Bill Clinton, was sued by Donald Trump earlier this year after repeatedly claiming that he was “found liable for rape” by a Manhattan jury.

His statements were a reference to complaints made by a woman named E. Jean Carroll, who has alleged Trump raped her in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room in the 1990s. She has never provided any evidence for her claims.

The deal, which has not been formally announced, will put an end to speculation that Stephanopoulos may be axed by the network after he was the subject of a humiliating libel loss in which its parent company Disney agreed to pay out $15 million and $1 million to cover Trump’s legal fees.

Federal Judge Violates Judicial Code While Lecturing Justice Alito on Ethics in New York Times Essay, Forced to Issue Apology for Misconduct

Senior U.S. District Judge Michael Ponsor of Massachusetts openly criticized Justice Samuel Alito’s ethics in a New York Times guest essay, violating the sacred trust of impartiality expected from the judiciary.

The conservative advocacy group, the Article III Project, filed a formal complaint against Ponsor, leading to a misconduct finding and a public apology from the senior judge.

The complaint, filed in May 2024, stemmed from an op-ed authored by Judge Ponsor and published in The New York Times.

The article discusses the controversy surrounding Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito’s display of an upside-down American flag and an “Appeal to Heaven” flag at his properties, which some media outlets tied to Trump supporters during the events of January 6, 2021. Ponsor declared the flags as symbols of partisanship and questioned Alito’s ethical judgment.

Despite lacking direct evidence of ethical violations or pending cases involving the flags, Ponsor’s essay implied that Alito’s actions warranted recusal from cases related to January 6, casting doubt on the Supreme Court justice’s impartiality.

“To me, the flag issue is much simpler. The fact is that, regardless of its legality, displaying the flag in that way, at that time, shouldn’t have happened. To put it bluntly, any judge with reasonable ethical instincts would have realized immediately that flying the flag then and in that way was improper. And dumb,” Ponsor wrote in the essay.

“The same goes for the flying of an “Appeal to Heaven” flag at Justice Alito’s vacation house along the New Jersey shore. Like the upside-down flag, this flag is viewed by a great many people as a banner of allegiance on partisan issues that are or could be before the court.”

Chief Judge Albert Diaz of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit issued a scathing rebuke of Ponsor’s actions.

“The essay expressed personal opinions on controversial public issues and criticized the ethics of a sitting Supreme Court justice. Such comments diminish the public confidence in the integrity and independence of the federal judiciary in violation of Canons 1 and 2A.” said Diaz in the filed reply.

‘The View’ Co-Host in Hot Water: Alyssa Farah Griffin Caught Coaching Federal Witness and Known Liar Cassidy Hutchinson – May Face Criminal Investigation

The Committee on House Administration’s Subcommittee on Oversight Chairman Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) released a second interim report on Tuesday addressing the events surrounding January 6, 2021.

The report not only highlighted widespread failures but also issued damning allegations against key members of the now-disbanded January 6 Committee.

“This interim report reveals that there was not just one single cause for what happened at the U.S. Capitol on January 6; but it was a series of intelligence, security, and leadership failures at several levels and numerous entities,” Loudermilk said.

The most explosive revelation from Loudermilk’s report pertains to the conduct of Liz Cheney. The report alleges that Cheney personally coached the committee’s so-called “star witness,” Cassidy Hutchinson, to alter her testimony—without Hutchinson’s attorney present.

Witness tampering is a federal crime.

Now we know why the sham committee deleted their communications from the public.

They all should be looking at prison time.

House GOP accuses Liz Cheney of tampering with J6 witness, ask FBI to investigate criminality

The House Administration Oversight Subcommittee and its chairman Barry Loudermilk on Tuesday released an interim report on the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, concluding the attack was preventable and also asking for an investigation into former Rep. Liz Cheney for criminally tampering with a witness during the Democrat-led congressional inquiry of the tragedy.

“Based on the evidence obtained by this Subcommittee, numerous federal laws were likely broken by Liz Cheney, the former Vice Chair of the January 6 Select Committee, and these violations should be investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation,” the report released by the House Administration Oversight Subcommittee and its chairman Barry Loudermilk stated.

“Evidence uncovered by the Subcommittee revealed that former Congresswoman Liz Cheney tampered with at least one witness, Cassidy Hutchinson, by secretly communicating with Hutchinson without Hutchinson’s attorney’s knowledge.,” it added. “This secret communication with a witness is improper and likely violates 18 U.S.C. 1512. Such action is outside the due functioning of the legislative process and therefore not protected by the Speech and Debate clause.”

Federal law criminalizes witness tampering of varying degrees, and subjects a defendant to as many as 20 years in prison.

The report also took direct aim at former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson, Cheney’s star witness at the nationally televised hearings, alleging that Cheney encouraged false testimony about a handwritten document and noting her sensational claim that former President Donald Trump tried to commandeer his presidential limousine that day to take it to the Capitol was directly refuted by the Secret Service.

Loudermilk’s report suggested Cheney also bore responsibility for Hutchinson’s testimony.

New Evidence of Alleged ActBlue Foreign Money Laundering Operation Revealed

ActBlue and other campaign donation platforms are at the center of an investigation being conducted by at least 20 State’s attorneys general, as well as the House Administration Committee in Congress.  It is also the subject of a lawsuit in Waukesha County, where earlier this month a judge allowed limited discovery into ActBlue to proceed.

The colloquial term used to describe this alleged operation is “smurfing.”  Peter Bernegger, Chris Gleason, and their team discovered this suspected campaign money laundering operation and went public with it in 2023 when James O’Keefe’s OMG published videos interviewing suspected victims of this scheme.

According to the FEC.gov website, there are potentially thousands upon thousands of individuals whose identities are being stolen to launder millions of dollars to political campaigns and PACs across the country.  This scheme can be verified by anyone:

  1. Simply go to FEC.gov.
  2. Under “Campaign Finance Data”, select “Look up contributions from specific individuals.”
  3. Put “ActBlue” as the “Recipient Name”
  4. Select a zip code or city you’d like to search
  5. Under “Occupation” put “retired”
  6. Uncheck the Report Time Period box or expand it to the date range you’d like to check

The last step is to click “Export” in the top right hand corner.  This will download the data in a spreadsheet format.  When you open it up, sort the data by name.  Each contribution in this alleged scheme is typically under $5.

On Friday, Bernegger joined the Why We Vote podcast to discuss the recent reports that have come out of Congress via Rep. Bryan Steil and Rep. Jim Jordan.  According to subpoenaed records from ActBlue, Just The News reported that ActBlue updated its policy on Sept 9th to “automatically reject donations that use foreign prepaid/gift cards, domestic gift cards, are from high-risk/sanctioned countries, and have the highest level of risk as determined,” by its solution provider, Sift.

Bernegger had several crucial updates regarding their own investigation into this money-laundering scheme regarding an automated process to make the donations, why ActBlue’s policy update likely won’t have any impact on any accounts established before the change, and whether or not the incoming Trump administration will engage in this investigation.

“Crazy”: Trump Weighs In On Biden SELLING OFF Border Wall Sections For $5 Each

President Trump has called for a stop to be put to the Biden Administration selling off vast swathes of unused border wall sections at auction for as little as $5 a piece, calling it “crazy.”

As we highlighted last week, the wall sections, which have been laying on the ground unused for years due to Biden halting construction, are being hauled away on the back of flatbed trucks from a section of the border just south of Tucson.

Up to half a mile of unused wall is being moved every day, according to a Border Patrol agent.

“Joe Biden keeps talking about a smooth transition and unified government, and yet he races to sell desperately needed border wall for pennies on the dollar,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post Friday.

He continued, “It will cost the U.S. a fortune, and time, to get the exact same wall to replace what has been sold, and the new wall will cost triple the price.”
