After Spreading Russia Hoax Lies, Media Lie Again To Bury Evidence They Lied

Newly declassified documents confirm that Obama-era intelligence officials pushed the discredited Steele dossier that served as the nexus of the Russia collusion hoax in a bid to kneecap Donald Trump before he could set foot in the White House. But instead of reckoning with the truth, the propaganda press is scrambling to discredit the revelations — not because the evidence is lacking, but because it’s a damning indictment of the media’s complicity.

Nine years ago, the media breathlessly peddled the now discredited claim that then-candidate Trump colluded with Russia to win the 2016 election. At the heart of the hoax was the Steele dossier — opposition research created by a former British spy, paid for by Hillary Clinton’s campaign, and laundered into the intelligence community.

On Wednesday, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard declassified a 2020 report by the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence showing — among other things — that members of the intelligence community were concerned with several aspects of the dossier, such as credibility. In fact, according to the report, two senior CIA officers contended that the dossier should have been omitted from the ICA “because it failed to meet basic tradecraft standards.” In fact, the information in the dossier was so flawed that “every CIA analyst and operations officer” asked about the dossier made sure to “emphasize that they had nothing to do with the decision to include Annex A” and could not “vouch” for it.

Pretty damming, right? And that’ not even half of it. Additional coverage of the findings can be found herehere, and here.

One would think the media would be all over a story this explosive — historic levels of government corruption and a weaponized intel apparatus. While a functioning press would be digging into this (like us here at The Federalist!), the propaganda press is actually doing the opposite, trying to discredit the news.

“Trump’s intel chief Tulsi Gabbard reignites political battles with 2016 election documents on Russia,” CBS News’ Olivia Victoria Gazis wrote.

“‘It’s just wildly misleading’: Why the administration’s latest allegations about the Russia investigation don’t add up,” read a headline from CNN’s Jeremy Herb and Katie Bo Lillis.

Ironically, Herb and Lillis (the latter of which was involved in a massive defamation case this year that ended with a jury finding CNN is literally fake news) claim the declassified document “conflate[s] and misrepresent[s]” the findings of the intelligence community. But according to the declassified report, the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) “misrepresented both the significance and credibility of the dossier reports.”

“Trump rehashes years-old grievances on Russia investigation after new intelligence report,” The Associated Press’ Erick Tucker and Chris Megerian wrote. According to the Bobbsey twins, decisions to review the corrupt intelligence apparatus and their involvement in the 2016 Russia collusion hoax is “backward-looking.”

“Gabbard Releases New Documents Targeting Obama Administration,” The New York Times’ Julian E. Barnes wrote.

Florida Judge Says ‘Hands Are Tied,’ Won’t Unseal Epstein Grand Jury Transcripts

A federal judge has denied the Trump administration’s request to unseal transcripts from Florida grand jury proceedings related to a 20-year-old criminal investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, saying her “hands are tied.”

U.S. District Court Judge for the Southern District of Florida Robin Rosenberg wrote in her denial that an unrelated 2020 ruling by the Eleventh U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals “does not permit” her to unseal grand jury records in instances not covered by the criminal procedure rule, CNBC reported.

“Eleventh Circuit law does not permit this Court to grant the Government’s request; the Court’s hands are tied — a point the Government concedes,” Rosenberg wrote.

President Donald Trump’s Department of Justice (DOJ) petitioned the U.S. District Court in West Palm Beach, Florida, to obtain the transcripts from two grand juries that convened there in 2005 and 2007, respectively.

In its argument for the transcripts, which are normally left sealed in such cases, the DOJ pointed to a “strong public interest in the historical investigation into Jeffrey Epstein,” the convicted sex offender suspected of trafficking minors to other pedophiles.

The DOJ also argued that “many of the rationales supporting grand jury secrecy” no longer apply since Epstein’s 2019 death, which the department claimed was a suicide earlier this month. 

The controversial memo from the DOJ, headed by U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi, also claimed there was no evidence of a “client list” belonging to Epstein to blackmail people with.

Neither argument provided by the department would qualify as an exception to the rule regarding the transcripts, Rosenberg wrote in her Wednesday decision. 

The Florida judge’s ruling does not impact two other pending requests by the DOJ that seek grand jury transcripts related to the later investigations that led to the 2019 and 2020 New York indictments of Epstein and his accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell.

House speaker says there will be no votes on releasing Epstein files before August recess

The House of Representatives will not move forward with any legislative efforts aimed at releasing files related to notorious pedophile Jeffrey Epstein before its monthlong August recess, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said Monday. 

“No,” Johnson responded when asked by CNN reporter Manu Raju if lawmakers would vote on a resolution calling for the public disclosure of documents related to Epstein’s case before the lower chamber takes its annual summer break. 

The House speaker argued that Congress needs to give the Trump administration “space” to handle the hot-button issue on its own for the time being. 

“There is no daylight between the House Republicans, the House and the president on maximum transparency,” Johnson said. “[President Trump] has said that he wants all the credible files relating to Epstein to be released. He’s asked the attorney general to request the grand jury files of the court. All of that is in process right now.”  

“My belief is we need the administration to have the space to do what it is doing.”

What Ghislaine Maxwell really knows — and why she could finally spill all on Jeffrey Epstein: sources

Ex-socialite Ghislaine Maxwell will try to cut a deal with federal authorities during a jailhouse meeting with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, sources told The Post.

Blanche said Tuesday he plans to meet with the convicted madam, currently serving a 20-year sentence in Florida for sex-trafficking young women for her former boss, notorious pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

“She’s going to make a deal,” said Alan Dershowitz, a lawyer and law professor who was pals with, and previously represented, Epstein, who died in federal custody in August 2019.

“That’s the way things are done. They make deals with the Mafia, so I’m certain they are going to try to make a deal with her.”

A separate legal expert explained that meeting with Blanche presents an opportunity for Maxwell to potentially lessen her sentence or get out of prison in exchange for spilling secrets about her and Epstein’s life, which she has closely guarded since his death.

Dershowitz has referred to Maxwell, 63, as the “Rosetta Stone” of information about Epstein, and told The Post Tuesday “she knows everything — not just about the perpetrators but the victims. And she knows about the victims who became perpetrators.”

Some of Epstein’s victims — who number over 1,000 in total, according to the Department of Justice — were groomed to recruit other young women, according to court papers.

The Untouchables: The Sexual Predators Within America’s Power Elite

Now by coming in and being part of the cover-up, the Trump administration has become part of it.
—Alex Jones, InfoWars

Once again, the American police state is choosing to protect predators, not victims.

Jeffrey Epstein—the hedge fund billionaire/convicted serial pedophile and sex trafficker—may be dead, but the machinery that empowered and protected him is still very much alive.

You see, the Epstein case was never just about Epstein—it was about the entire edifice of power that shields the ruling class, silences victims, and erases accountability.

Thus, the latest about-face declarations from the Trump administration—that Epstein had no client list, that he did in fact kill himself, and that there’s nothing more to discuss or investigate so we should just move on—have only reinforced what many have suspected all along: the system is rigged in order to protect the power elite because the power elite are the system.

In this age of partisan politics and a deeply polarized populace, corruption—especially when it involves sexual debauchery, depravity and predatory behavior—has become the great equalizer.

With the reemergence of Jeffrey Epstein’s ghost in the public discourse, we are once again reminded of just how deep the rot goes.

Politics, religion, entertainment, business, law enforcement, the military—it doesn’t matter the arena or affiliation: all are riddled with the kind of seedy, depraved behavior that gets a free pass when it involves the powerful.

For years, the Epstein case has stood as a grotesque emblem of the depravity within America’s power elite: billionaires, politicians, and celebrities who allegedly trafficked in sex with young girls while insulated from accountability.

It is believed that Epstein, who died in jail after being arrested on charges of molesting, raping and sex trafficking dozens of young girls, operated a sex trafficking ring not only for his own personal pleasure but also for that of his friends and business associates.

According to The Washington Post, “several of the young women…say they were offered to the rich and famous as sex partners at Epstein’s parties.”

The Autopen Presidency Controversy Is Just Beginning

Now that investigations into the autopen presidency are underway, left-leaning media and Democratic politicians are finally confronted with the truth that was right in front of our faces for years: Joe Biden was not running the country, and America was being led by an unelected, unaccountable polit-bureau.

Every week we learn more that makes the long national nightmare we endured even worse. Now, thanks to the New York Times, of all places, we learn that Joe Biden couldn’t even manage the task of signing his own name on pardons of violent and dangerous criminals, and at best, only knew of categories of those being pardoned.

President Biden was forced to bow out of his campaign after he embarrassed the political class and media elite during that fateful June 27 debate with Donald Trump – but he was NOT forced to resign from the most powerful office on Planet Earth.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer announced at the Republican National Lawyers Association policy conference in May that he was determined to conduct full investigations to get to the truth for the American people.

Thankfully, Comer is making good on his promise – but it’s not going to be easy.

On July 9, after the Trump administration released the Biden family doctor from the burden of executive privilege, Dr. Kevin O’Connor began the trend of refusing to answer the Oversight Committee’s questions and chose to plead the Fifth Amendment, presumably to protect himself from criminal self-incrimination.

Chairman Comer declares he will “continue to interview more Biden White House aides to get the answers Americans deserve,” and with former press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre announcing her own forthcoming book on the heels of “Original Sin” by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson, it’s expected that more will come out that further confirms Biden’s mental and cognitive incapacity.

Some legal experts have agreed that an autopen signature could be legal, but we never seriously considered signing laws using the autopen until Barack Obama signed Patriot Act extensions while he was in France in 2011. Obama left congressional Republicans questioning the validity of such use when he again used an autopen to sign the 2013 “fiscal cliff” legislation during one of his Hawaii vacations.

Almost $1 Billion is Not a Hoax

Trump’s White House is in damage-control mode over Trump’s meltdown over the Jeffrey Epstein case. The eruption of anger among a large portion of Trump’s MAGA base caught the Trump team with its pants down. Instead of putting the matter to rest, Trump has created a veritable video Tsunami of substantive analyses that is painting a dark picture of the US Government aiding and abetting a pedophile ring. The so-called “list” of Epstein’s clients, as I have noted in a previous piece, is a red herring. The real question is why the US Government has adamantly refused to conduct a thorough investigation and indict wealthy, powerful men who were busy bedding underage girls under the tutelage of Jeffrey Epstein.

The image at the top of this post was created by Ryan Dawson, who has been one of the key citizen investigators since Epstein’s first arrest in 2006. The total settlements paid out so far to the victims of Epstein’s pedophile ring is over $800 million. How is that, as Trump stupidly claims, a hoax? Only four people have been arrested in the Epstein affair — Jeffrey and Ghislane in the US, and two men overseas. Besides Epstein, the guy imprisoned in France also committed “suicide.”

Notwithstanding Trump’s lame attempt to insist there is nothing to see here, and his order to release some grand jury testimony, he is now just one more member of a Deep State cover up. What he should have done is ordered Attorney General Pam Bondi to empanel a grand jury and go for indictments. Pathetic.

If you want to understand the full scope of the evil confronting us, I encourage you to watch the video of Tucker Carlson interviewing Daryl Cooper and the video of Vive Frei with Mike Benz. This is ugly, and I hope it does not go away.

The Anniversary They Want You to Forget: TWA Flight 800 and the Deep State’s Deadliest Lie

On July 17, 1996, 230 men, women, and children boarded TWA Flight 800 for Paris. Twelve minutes later, their lives were incinerated in midair. And for nearly three decades, the American government has done everything short of setting the ocean on fire to bury the truth.

Last week marked the 28th anniversary of that explosion. You didn’t hear much about it from CNN, or MSNBC, or even the White House. 

Of course you didn’t. 

The people who peddled Russiagate, the Hunter laptop hoax, and the now-laughable myth of President Joe Biden’s cognitive abilities are the same types of bureaucrats who sterilized the truth in 1996 to protect their golden boy: President Bill Clinton.

Because make no mistake: What happened to TWA 800 wasn’t just a tragedy. It was a cover-up soaked in blood.

The Missile Theory They Mock Until You Read the Evidence

The official story goes something like this: A fuel-air explosion inside the center-wing tank was caused by an electrical short. The problem? That has never happened before or since in the history of commercial aviation. 

And more than 200 eyewitnesses, many of them military-trained, reported a streak of light arcing up from the horizon, then a fireball.

You don’t have to believe some Reddit thread. Just read Jack Cashill. In his exhaustive investigation, “TWA 800: The Crash, the Cover-Up, and the Conspiracy,” Cashill compiles the following:

  • FBI 302 reports of eyewitnesses that were altered or disappeared.
  • Radar data showed unidentified objects rapidly approaching the plane.
  • Explosive residue on passenger seats and debris, which the FBI later claimed came from contamination, after initially labeling it “consistent with missile fuel.”
  • Whistleblowers, such as Navy Commander William Donaldson and TWA Captain Terry Stacey, were stonewalled or reassigned for raising concerns.

This wasn’t a malfunction. It was a missile strike, almost certainly fired accidentally by the U.S. Navy during a live-fire exercise, and then intentionally buried to avoid scandal in an election year.

The FBI’s War Against the Truth

While families grieved and the country mourned, the FBI moved fast, not to solve the case, but to seize control of the narrative. Within hours, they had muscled the NTSB out of the lead, quarantined key wreckage, and steered the media toward mechanical failure.

When physicist Tom Stalcup and several NTSB investigators tried to reopen the case in 2013 with new radar analysis and 3D modeling, their petition was denied. 

The response? 

There’s “no compelling evidence.” Of course not, because you people shredded it.

Deep State DOJ Hiding Seth Rich Documents – “The Heart of the Russia Collusion Hoax”

The Deep State is hiding documents related to the Seth Rich Murder “The Heart of the Russia Collusion Hoax”.

After more than 8 years, the corrupt and criminal FBI refuses to provide evidence related to Seth Rich’s murder.   

This has been going on since 2016.  The death of Seth Rich coincided with the beginning of the Russia collusion lie.  Those wanting justice, like attorney Ty Clevenger, have been illegally delayed and denied information related to this case since this time.

It is believed that Seth Rich is not only the key to the Russia Collusion coup attempt of the first Trump Administration but also the reason for the initiation of the CISA.

Seth Rich is the key to the Russia Collusion coup of the Trump Administration.  Efforts to cover-up his actions involved in the transfer of Democrat and Podesta files to WikiLeaks when uncovered are expected to indicate that the files that were delivered to WikiLeaks were from Seth Rich.  The lie that the Russians were involved will be found to be a total fabrication.

Hillary wanted to deflect from her email scandal and what was in her emails.  These emails included numerous crimes committed by Hillary and Obama and Biden and many others.  It is believed that Seth Rich essentially provided these emails to WikiLeaks and they were damning – implicating the corrupt Deep State in numerous crimes.  This is why many believe Seth Rich was murdered.

Governmental Self-Preservation: Why We’ll Never See The Real Epstein List

If there’s one characteristic that defines Donald Trump it’s his habit of switching his positions on a dime – Leaving many a critic looking rather foolish when they establish an argument against him today, only to discover he mostly agrees with them tomorrow. I’ve learned it’s best to wait a little while before commenting on the man’s policy decisions and allow time for the debate to ferment. After months of deflection and now retraction, the Jeffery Epstein controversy has turned especially ripe.

To understand the chaos surrounding the Epstein issue we have to first recognize that it’s the product of an inherent division within the MAGA movement that needs to be addressed. The campaign to support Trump is built on two groups that intersect but don’t always agree:

1) Average Republicans (and some moderates) who are most concerned with defeating the agenda of leftists and keeping woke activists out of government power.

2) Hardcore conservatives and libertarians from the “conspiracy” end of the movement who are most concerned with defeating the globalist cabal.

I find myself in rooted in both camps and I see both as essential, though it’s clear to me that the goals of the second group are ultimately more important.

To be clear, leftist saboteurs are a legitimate enemy that has been employed as a weapon against the rest of the populace. I’m growing especially tired of the laziness of libertarians who cry “False left/right paradigm!” while forgetting the living hell we all experienced under the reign of Joe Biden and Democrats. The differences between conservatives and leftists cannot be denied.

The country has at least been tolerable under Trump – No more “transing” or grooming of children in schools. No more pride month. No more pandering to DEI. No more open borders. No more federal accusations of conservatives being “terrorists” and a “danger to democracy”. If you can’t at least give some credit for these changes then you’re not a serious person and I have no time for you.

That said, in the end the threat of the political left pales in comparison to the threat presented by the globalists. These are people with a luciferian ideology of self worship and moral relativism and they are in positions of immense power (at least in financial terms). Though their political reputation in the US is faltering, they still have near total control of the narratives in Europe, Australia and Canada, not to mention invasive financial influence throughout most of the world.

Look at it this way: Have you ever heard of a globalist being punished or arrested for their attempts to manipulate and corrupt the social and governmental institutions of any given nation? How many globalist NGOs have been shut down in recent memory? Isn’t the US still pouring tax dollars into globalist institutions like the IMF, BIS (through the Federal Reserve), World Bank, etc.?

Political factions may battle for the minds of the masses and many times these fights are very real, but the globalists always remain in the background watching and waiting for another chance to push civilization further towards their dystopian vision. They don’t care what happens politically as long as their money and influence remain intact. No one ever aims their cannons at the whispering men lurking behind the curtain.

For conservative patriots, dealing with the evils of the political left serves the immediate purpose of treating symptoms, but not the disease. Globalists are a parasitic organism that feeds on humanity, spawning more and more decline and despair as they grow. They must be eliminated from the equation if our future is to ever improve.

Trump has openly admonished the globalists on many occasions and he ran his 2016 and 2024 campaigns on reversing the economic damage they have done. Defeating globalism was a big part of his election platform, it’s undeniable. The problem is, he has consistently backed away from any direct prosecution or punishment of said devils.
