Embattled Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook Breaks Her Silence, PUBLICLY Speaks About Her Mortgage Fraud

Embattled Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook on Monday publicly discussed her alleged mortgage fraud during remarks at the Brookings Institution.

This is the first time Lisa Cook has publicly spoken since President Trump fired her in August over allegations of mortgage fraud.

“I would like to briefly address an issue that may be on some of your minds,” Lisa Cook said during her remarks.

“As many of you know, I am involved in an ongoing legal case. There are a number of people in this room and in this building who have reached out and been supportive in many ways. I am beyond grateful for that support,” Cook said.

“Because the case is ongoing, it would be inappropriate for me to comment further today,” Cook added.

“I will continue to carry out my sworn duties on behalf of the American people,” Cook said.

Lisa Cook apparently owns three properties, and she allegedly committed mortgage fraud on all three properties.

According to housing regulator Bill Pulte’s first criminal referral, Lisa Cook committed mortgage fraud by lying on her mortgage application and falsifying bank statements when she designated her out-of-state Atlanta condo as her “primary residence”—just two weeks after taking a loan on her Michigan home, which she also claimed as her “primary residence.”

In August, Pulte sent a second criminal referral on Lisa Cook after she was allegedly caught lying about a third property.

Lisa Cook’s attorneys laughably claimed there would be an inflation crisis if Trump were allowed to fire Cook.

The US Supreme Court last month allowed embattled Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook to remain in her chair for now.

The high court will hear the case in January 2026 and allow Lisa Cook to keep her job in the meantime.

This also means Lisa Cook will be able to participate in December’s interest rate meeting.

Oregon Dem Melissa Fireside declared international fugitive after fleeing US with young son, could be headed to Austria: authorities

An Oregon Democratic politician is now an international fugitive from justice after fleeing the country with her young son when she was charged with bilking an elderly man out of $30,000, authorities said.

Democrat Melissa Fireside, an ex-Clackamas County commissioner, crossed the border into Mexico on a fake passport and booked a ticket for Austria after going on the run with her 9-year-old son, Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield said Friday.

“Our top concern right now is the safety and well-being of this child,” Rayfield said.

“We are working closely with law enforcement partners here and at the federal level to locate Ms. Fireside and ensure she is held accountable under Oregon law.”

Fireside was free on conditional release while facing charges that she stole from her mom’s 83-year-old boyfriend when she disappeared, The Oregonian reported.

“No one should be able to evade justice by crossing a border,” he added.

Fireside was charged in March with aggravated theft, forgery and other crimes for allegedly ripping off retired Safeway employee Arthur Petrone, her mom’s beau, by applying for a loan using his name.

Petrone, who died in August, lived on his pension and Social Security payments.

Fireside pleaded not guilty at her arraignment and was allowed to remain free on the condition that she not leave the state and show up for court hearings.

However, the state justice department on Friday filed a motion to revoke Fireside’s bail after investigators determined that she wasn’t living at her Lexington, Oregon, home — a violation of the terms of her release, the attorney general said.

Bombshell Emails Reveal Comey Expected to Work For ‘President-Elect Hillary Clinton’ – and Knew His ‘Mole’ Daniel Richman Was Leaking to the Media

Newly released November 2016 emails reveal that James Comey was guiding his media mole, Daniel Richman, and authorized leaks to the media.

James Comey knew his ‘friend’ Daniel Richman was talking to the media, backing up claims in Lindsey Halligan’s case against the former FBI Director.

This contradicts Comey’s claims that he is being maliciously prosecuted.

The motive? Comey said that he expected to work for ‘president-elect Clinton.’

“Some day they will figure it out. And as [Individual 1 and Individual 2] point out, my decision will be one a president-elect Clinton will be very grateful for (although that wasn’t why I did it),” Comey wrote to his media mole Daniel Richman in one of the emails, according to Just The News.

The newly-released documents were found in the hidden SCIF that Kash Patel discovered this year.

Lindsey Halligan released the emails in a court filing in response to Comey’s motion to dismiss based on malicious prosecution.

James Comey was clearly working with Daniel Richman to anonymously leak information about Hillary Clinton’s email scandal to the New York Times.

Just The News reported:

Federal prosecutors revealed Monday they have unearthed a trove of personal emails showing then-FBI Director James Comey openly talked in the days before the 2016 election that he expected to be working soon for President-elect Hillary Clinton and was being kept apprised by a top FBI aide on efforts to anonymously provide information to the news media.

“Well done my friend. Who knew this would. E so uh fun,” Comey wrote in a November 2016 email after then-FBI special government employee Dan Richman briefed the FBI director on Richman’s efforts to provide information and guidance to The New York Times on an article involving Clinton’s email scandal.

The emails were referenced in a bombshell court filing by acting U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan and her deputy, Tyler Lemmons in which the government rejected Comey’s argument that he was being maliciously prosecuted for misleading Congress about actions he took as FBI director.

Halligan cited and attached to the filing numerous emails in which Comey was clearly aware that Richman was working to provide information anonymously to news outlets about the Clinton email case and that he expected those outreach efforts would end with Clinton defeating Donald Trump in the November 2016 election.

Ex-ISIS Envoy Who Killed Americans In Iraq To Be Hosted At White House This Month

President Donald Trump is set to host Syria’s self-appointed interim leader later this month for talks in Washington, marking the first ever visit by a Syrian head of state to the US capitol. Abu Mohammad al-Jolani, who once fought alongside foreign fighters while killing American soldiers in Iraq, will enjoy his red carpet reception in Washington on November 10.

This will also mark the first time a former ISIS member will be hosted in the Oval Office, an absurdity which would have been hard to believe a mere decade ago. But the US-Saudi-Israel axis reached its regime change goal in Damascus, which overthrew the secular Arab nationalist leader Bashar al-Assad, which resulted in the Islamist Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) taking over.

The HTS leader Abu Mohammad al-Jolani, who was even earlier this year still on the US terrorism list, quickly reverted to his birth name of Ahmed al-Sharaa. The US had promptly removed the $10 million bounty on his head just before President Trump met with him in Riyadh last May.

“President Ahmed al-Sharaa will be at the White House at the start of November,” Syria’s foreign minister said in speech in Bahrain. “Of course, this is a historic visit. It is the first visit by a Syrian president to the White House in more than 80 years.”

There will be many issues on the table, starting with the lifting of sanctions and opening of a new chapter between the United States and Syria. We want to establish a very strong partnership between the two countries.”

One area of proposed cooperation is in fighting terrorism, ironically enough, and the US and Syria under Jolani are expected to sign an agreement joining a US-led international coalition against ISIS during the visit, which is somewhat laughable given ISIS patches have recently been seen among HTS ranks.

Mayor of Uruapan Municipality, Michoacán, Mexico, Assassinated During the Candle Festival

On Saturday, November 1, 2025, during the Festival de las Velas held in the main square of the municipality of Uruapan, Michoacán, the independent municipal president, Carlos Alberto Manzo Rodríguez, was shot and later died in the hospital. According to reports, the attack took place in full view of festivalgoers.

His death underscores the alarming trend of violence against local officials in Mexico and raises serious questions about public-safety assurances for elected representatives.

Manzo Rodríguez, elected in September 2024 as mayor of Uruapan with an independent campaign, had gained prominence for publicly confronting organized-crime influence and urging the federal government for greater intervention in his municipality.

He had also accused state authorities of corruption and negligence. According to the federal security secretary, the assailant opened fire with a weapon linked to clashes between rival criminal groups. The attacker was killed on site, and two other suspects were arrested.

The assassination occurred despite Manzo’s having been placed under federal protection since December 2024, with additional security reinforcement in May 2025. Authorities said the perpetrators exploited the vulnerability of the public event to commit the crime.

The governor of Michoacán and the federal presidency condemned the attack and pledged that no impunity would be allowed.

They announced intensified security measures in the region and investigations into possible cartel involvement.

This killing took place in one of Mexico’s most violence-plagued states, where powerful criminal organizations fight for control of territory and resources, including the lucrative avocado industry — a point Manzo himself referenced in his public statements.

Foreign Journalists Asked Kamala the Questions Americans Wouldn’t

Last month, Kamala Harris made the rounds of supportive liberal networks to promote her campaign book “107 Days.” The title implied it was impossible for her to beat that allegedly despised dictator, Donald Trump, with so little time.

No one expected much of the interviewers, starting with ABC’s “The View,” which could have titled the interview “You Had Me at Hello.” They put a six-pack of suck-ups on the set. The “conservative” Alyssa Farah Griffin could only ask if Harris missed any warning signs.

The biggest event in that interview was co-host Sunny Hostin confessing to the Mom-ala that she felt she’d hurt her chances by asking an obvious question: Where do you differ from Joe Biden? Harris said she couldn’t think of anything.

That shouldn’t be a destructive question. It’s an obvious question, even if the answer was exploitable.

ABC’s “Good Morning America” was no better. Co-host Michael Strahan tiptoed in with Democrat concerns: “There’s some Democrats who said that you don’t take enough responsibility for the loss. How do you respond to that?”

MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow gushed over Kamala as the “patron saint of I Told You So,” and let her subject compare Trump to a communist dictator. We won’t even get into her interviews with Don Lemon and Joy Reid.

All these Americans looked dreadful when the Kamala Harris book tour went international. BBC interviewer Laura Kuenssberg noticed Harris said, “I’m not done,” suggesting another presidential run. She warned: “But when you look at the bookies’ odds, they put you, as an outsider, even behind Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson.” Harris claimed she’s never “listened to polls.”

New shocking details emerge about Deep State’s favorite judge, James Boasberg…

There’s a reason the name Judge James Boasberg keeps popping up every time the Deep State pulls another rabbit out of its hat. From Russiagate to FISAgate, from Ray Epps to the J6 show trials, Boasberg’s ghoulish fingerprints are all over the weapons used to attack President Trump and the America First movement for nearly a decade now.

Boasberg supporters like to say he’s “just doing his job.” But when that “job” always involves running cover for Democrats, Deep State operatives, and corrupt bureaucrats… while hammering Trump allies… it’s not exactly hard to connect the dots.

And that brings us to the latest twist in this ongoing judicial saga. What investigative journalist Sundance just uncovered ties it all together with a big bow on top. If you thought Judge Boasberg was an activist before, you might now see him as one of the Deep State’s most key players.

And as you read this very detailed X post, pay close attention to who always seems to rush to Boasberg’s defense… none other than Chief Justice John Roberts. The same day President Trump suggested Boasberg should be impeached for his slew of crazy, biased rulings, Roberts issued a rare public statement shielding him.

Newsom Claims Biden Is Fit to Serve — Then Says He “Hates When Politicians Lie to You”

California Governor Gavin Newsom’s latest appearance on Meet the Press showed exactly why Americans have lost faith in Democrat leadership. 

When asked what frustrates him most about politics, Newsom said, “There is nothing I dislike more than a politician who sits there and lies to you.” 

Moments later, he defended Joe Biden’s “fitness” to serve as president through 2029—despite overwhelming evidence that Biden is no longer capable of handling the job he already lost.

Since President Trump returned to the White House, the contrast between leadership and incompetence could not be more evident. 

Trump has rebuilt the economy, strengthened border security, and reasserted America’s role on the world stage. 

Meanwhile, Democrats like Newsom continue to defend Biden’s record of weakness and confusion, pretending that his failed presidency was a golden era. 

Newsom’s attempt to rewrite history is not loyalty—it’s deception.

Newsom pointed to a 2023 Oval Office meeting with Biden as proof of the former president’s competence. 

But Americans remember what really happened: a term defined by inflation, chaos at the border, and foreign policy disasters that emboldened America’s enemies. 

Biden’s June 2024 debate was a disaster—he appeared confused, frail, and unable to complete sentences.

His blank stares, missed cues, and incoherent answers shocked viewers nationwide, confirming fears that he lacked the mental and physical capacity to lead the country. It was a defining moment of collapse.

Even Democrats privately admitted it. Yet Newsom, ever the political opportunist, continues to praise Biden to protect his own ambitions for 2028.

‘Horror story’: RFK Jr. reveals chilling organ harvesting scandal

Ashocking revelation from Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has exposed what he calls a “horror story” inside America’s organ donation system.

On a recent segment of Newsmax, RFK Jr. detailed a case in which a woman allegedly awoke while her organs were being harvested and did not live to tell the tale.

“It’s a horror story, and part of it is because of the capture of the agency that was regulating ORR, had a — the board that was actually regulating organ harvesting was overlapping with the contractor that was actually harvesting the organs,” he began.

“I had one instance where a family was waiting at the hospital for the body of their deceased relative. The relative was brought to one of these private organ harvesting centers, awoke while they were harvesting her organs, and then was brought back to the hospital … where she died eventually,” he continued.

New Jersey’s Past Election Integrity Problems Demand Federal Oversight In Governor’s Race

As federal election monitors arrive in California and New Jersey ahead of Tuesday’s elections, Democrats are screaming, “voter intimidation!” 

“It’s a preview of things to come, part of the rigging, part of the voter suppression,” California Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom, in the running for America’s slimiest politician, said last week. “It’s exactly why the National Guard were federalized through Election Day.”

California voters head the the polls to decide the fate of Proposition 50, a Newsom-led redistricting initiative that would give more congressional seats to Democrats and disenfranchise Republican voters. The representative democracy deniers want to jettison the political maps drawn up by an independent commission and replace them with a politically-twisted gerrymander. Remember that when Democrats bloviate about “voter suppression.” 

Virginia and New Jersey will hold state elections featuring bruising executive branch races. 

“Our State is committed to ensuring a free, fair, and secure election, and we will not allow anyone to interfere with or disrupt our elections,” leftist New Jersey Attorney General Matt  Platkin declared after the Department of Justice announced it would deploy monitors in Passaic County, N.J., and at polling sites in five counties in California. 

The Democrats’ spin, in the words of Col. Sherman T. Potter, is a bunch of horse hockey. It’s more of the “fascism” prattle from the party that has helped lead a soft coup against a duly elected president for more than eight years. 

There’s nothing new about the deployment of federal election monitors. The two buffoons in California and New Jersey certainly didn’t express any concerns last year when President Joe Biden’s Department of Justice announced it would send scores of election monitors into 86 jurisdictions across 26 states — including California and New Jersey. 

Leftist “voter rights” groups and their press messengers love federal monitors, just not when they’re sent out to make sure liberal partisan elections officials are playing by the rules.

But New Jersey’s attorney general insists the same actions by President Donald Trump’s DOJ are “highly inappropriate.” Platkin puffed to USA Today that his office would be considering all of its options “to prevent any effort to intimidate voters or interfere with our elections.”

The Jersey Democrat Machine appointee likes to gloss over Passaic County’s history of election integrity failures and election law abuses.
