Rand Paul Says he will Reissue Criminal Referral of Autopen Pardon Recipient Anthony Fauci to Trump DOJ Amid New York Times Confirmation that Fauci Pardon was Not Approved by Biden

Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) announced on Monday that he will once again submit a criminal referall of Dr. Anthony Fauci to the Deparment of Justice after the New York Times reported that White House Chief of Staff Jeff Zeints approved of Dr. Fauci’s pardon. 

Previously, Rand Paul referred Fauci to the Department of Justice for prosecution, following his testimony on the NIH’s role in funding gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab in 2021.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, the New York Times also reviewed some of the emails that the National Archives handed over to the Trump DOJ as part of their investigation into the autopen scandal and confirmed that Fauci’s pardon was not approved by Biden. Rather, “White House Chief of Staff Jeff Zeints actually approved pardons for Dr. Fauci and others on January 19,” they report.

“Biden did not individually approve each name for the categorical pardons that applied to large numbers of people, he and aides confirmed,” the Times reported.

Joe Biden told the New York Times that he “orally granted all the pardons and commutations issued at the end of his term” and lashed out at President Trump as a “liar” for claiming the autopen was used without his authorization.

Congressional Committee Moves To Block Marijuana Rescheduling

A GOP-controlled House committee has unveiled a new spending bill that contains provisions to block the Justice Department from rescheduling marijuana. The legislation would also maintain a separate longstanding rider protecting state medical cannabis programs from federal interference—though with new language authorizing enhanced penalties for sales near schools and parks.

On Monday, the House Appropriations Committee released the text of the spending measure covering Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies (CJS). For the second time now, the base legislation contains language hostile to marijuana rescheduling efforts that remain ongoing.

Specifically, the bill would block the Justice Department from using its funds to reschedule or deschedule marijuana. Under the Biden administration, DOJ recommended moving cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule III of the Controlled Substances Act (CSA), but that process has been delayed for months amid challenges from witnesses in the administrative hearings.

Here’s the text of the provision: 

“SEC. 607. None of the funds appropriated or other wise made available by this Act may be used to reschedule marijuana (as such term is defined in section 102 of the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. 802)) or to remove marijuana from the schedules established under section 202 of the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. 812).”

The language cleared committee as part of the last CJR spending bill, but it was not ultimately enacted into law. The new measure is scheduled for subcommittee action on Tuesday.

GOP senators have separately tried to block the administration from rescheduling cannabis as part of a standalone bill filed in 2023, but that proposal did not receive a hearing or vote.

Meanwhile, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) recently notified an agency judge that the marijuana rescheduling process remains stalled under the Trump administration.

It’s been over six months since DEA Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) John Mulrooney temporarily paused hearings on a proposal to move cannabis to Schedule III. And in a joint report to the judge submitted earlier this month, DEA attorneys and rescheduling proponents said they’re still at an impasse.

To the relief of advocates, the latest CJS bill does continue to preserve a longstanding rider to prevent DOJ from using its funds to interfere in the implementation of state medical marijuana programs that has been part of federal law since 2014.

However, it stipulates that the Justice Department can still enforce a section of U.S. code that calls for increased penalties for distributing cannabis within 1,000 feet of an elementary school, vocational school, college, playground or public housing unit. That language was first included in the last version of the appropriations legislation.

VICTORY! DOJ Drops Charges Against Hero Doctor Who Helped Patients Evade Vaccine Mandates

The Department of Justice has announced it is dropping charges against Utah plastic surgeon Dr. Kirk Moore for helping his patients avoid taking the dodgy COVID vaccines.

Attorney General Pam Bondi announced the decision in a post on the X platform.

“At my direction @TheJusticeDept has dismissed charges against Dr. Kirk Moore,” Bondi wrote.

”Dr. Moore gave his patients a choice when the federal government refused to do so.

“He did not deserve the years in prison he was facing. It ends today.”

At my direction @TheJusticeDept has dismissed charges against Dr. Kirk Moore.

Dr. Moore gave his patients a choice when the federal government refused to do so. He did not deserve the years in prison he was facing. It ends today.

— Attorney General Pamela Bondi (@AGPamBondi) July 12, 2025

This decision follows recent reporting by The Gateway Pundit about Dr. Moore and how he was facing 35 years in federal prison for his supposed crimes.

Among his various “crimes” included destroyeing thousands of vials of mRNA COVID vaccines, providing his patients with fake vaccination cards and injecting saline into children whose parents wanted them to believe they got vaccinated without risking potential side effects.

Pfizer bribery probe dropped after ex-company lawyer Pam Bondi takes over DOJ in February 2025.

The DOJ dropped its Pfizer bribery probe in China and Mexico soon after Pam Bondi, a former Pfizer legal consultant, became Attorney General in February 2025. The investigation’s closure, evident from Pfizer’s latest filings, has raised concerns about Bondi’s influence and DOJ impartiality.

For the past several years, pharmaceutical giant Pfizer has been under investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice for potential foreign corruption violations related to its activities in China and Mexico, according to the company’s financial filings.

But that appears to have changed after the Trump administration tapped Pam Bondi — previously an outside legal counsel for Pfizer — to lead the Justice department as attorney general.

In the company’s most recent annual report, filed three weeks after Bondi took office in early February, there was no longer any reference to the Justice Department investigations into the company’s potential violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practice Act. A quarterly a report in May also contains no reference to these investigations.

Pam Bondi’s DOJ Released a Video They Claimed Proved Epstein Killed Himself — This Report Proves It Doesn’t

Following a preliminary investigation—including a forensic, frame-by-frame analysis of the surveillance video recently released and cited in Pam Bondi’s DOJ memo, as well as an in-depth review of the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) in New York’s Special Housing Unit (SHU), including its labyrinthine floor plan and the hard limitations of the surveillance camera’s line of sight—we have reached a definitive conclusion: it is physically impossible for any viewer to see who, if anyone, entered or exited Jeffrey Epstein’s upper-level L Tier cell block during the full 10 hours, 52 minutes, and 23 seconds of footage. The camera angles simply do not—and cannot—show it. Camera lines of sight do not bend around corners.

Over the past four days, we conducted an independent, high-resolution analysis—and what we uncovered is not only indisputable, it’s damning. The video released by the Department of Justice does not, and cannot possibly, provide the definitive evidence that Jeffrey Epstein unquestionably killed himself. It fails to meet even the most basic standards of transparency—let alone proof.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. What follows is a forensic analysis and detailed inspection of images and floor plan schematics sourced directly from the official report titled Investigation and Review of the Federal Bureau of Prisons’ Custody, Care, and Supervision of Jeffrey Epstein at the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) in New York, New York (Report No. 23-085), issued June 27, 2023, by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) Office of the Inspector General (OIG).

House Republican Urges Justice Department To Drop Charges Against Doctor Accused Of Destroying COVID-19 Jabs And Giving Patients Fake Vaccine Cards

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is urging the Justice Department to drop charges against a doctor who allegedly destroyed “thousands” of COVID-19 jab vials and gave patients vaccine cards without taking the experimental injections.

“I am writing a letter to the DOJ asking all charges be dropped against Dr. Kirk Moore. who is facing thirty five years in federal prison for destroying thousands of vials of COVID-19 vaccine, giving his patients vaccine cards without taking the shots, and injecting saline into children whose parents wanted them to believe they got vaccinated without risking the deadly side effects,” Greene wrote.

“This man is a hero, not a criminal. The charges were filed under Biden’s DOJ, not Trump,” she added.

Trump DOJ Delivers Bad News to More Than 20 Doctors Who Performed Trans Procedures on Minors

Will the doctors who destroyed children’s bodies and ruined their lives be held accountable?

A news release from the Department of Justice looks promising. On Wednesday, the DOJ stated it would subpoena doctors and clinics that performed transgender surgeries on minors.

“Today, the Department of Justice announced that it has sent more than 20 subpoenas to doctors and clinics involved in performing transgender medical procedures on children,” the release began.

“The Department’s investigations include healthcare fraud, false statements, and more.”

Attorney General Pam Bondi commented, “Medical professionals and organizations that mutilated children in the service of a warped ideology will be held accountable by this Department of Justice.”

Who exactly these 20 doctors are remains unknown, but they’ll have plenty to explain.

NBC News reported, the announcement came the same day that the Federal Trade Commission hosted a workshop on the “dangers of gender-affirming care,” featuring speakers like doctors, psychologists, and victims who had been harmed by those procedures.

Destransitioner Claire Abernathy was featured. She had a double mastectomy when she was 15 years old only to decide to detransition at 18. “My doctors didn’t tell me that hormones would cause permanent side effects,” she explained.

DOJ Launches Nationwide Subpoena Offensive Against Doctors, Clinics Providing “Trans Surgeries” to Kids

The Department of Justice has issued more than 20 subpoenas to doctors and clinics accused of performing gender-affirming procedures on minors.

The subpoenas span investigations into healthcare fraud, false statements and even definitions of gender medicine as female genital mutilation (FGM).

“Medical professionals and organizations that mutilated children in the service of a warped ideology will be held accountable by this Department of Justice,” said Attorney General Pam Bondi.

This sweeping legal push stems directly from Bondi’s April memorandum.

The memo declares that “gender ideology” has infiltrated American culture and the medical community, causing children to undergo irreversible procedures (puberty blockers, hormone therapy, surgeries) due to “junk science” and political capture by far-left activists.

US Charges Chinese Man Accused of Hacking Into Universities to Steal COVID-19 Research

The Department of Justice (DOJ) announced charges on July 8 against a Chinese national taken into custody in Italy at the behest of Washington, and accused him of hacking into several U.S. universities to steal COVID-19 research at the direction of China’s main intelligence agency.

Xu Zewei, 33, was arrested in Milan, Italy, on July 3 by Italian law enforcement officials and FBI agents as he departed a plane from China. Xu and another Chinese national, Zhang Yu, 44, who remains at large, are charged in a nine-count indictment unsealed in the Southern District of Texas on Tuesday for their alleged involvement in computer intrusions between February 2020 and June 2021.

According to the indictment, Xu was a general manager at a Chinese company called Shanghai Powerock Network, which allegedly conducted hacking operations at the direction of the Shanghai State Security Bureau (SSSB) under China’s Ministry of State Security (MSS).

The DOJ said that Xu’s case exemplifies the Chinese regime’s use of a vast network of private companies and contractors in China to carry out hacking and information theft in a manner that concealed Beijing’s involvement.

“The indictment alleges that Xu was hacking and stealing crucial COVID-19 research at the behest of the Chinese government while that same government was simultaneously withholding information about the virus and its origins,” Nicholas Ganjei, U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Texas, said in a statement.

“The Southern District of Texas has been waiting years to bring Xu to justice and that day is nearly at hand. As this case shows, even if it takes years, we will track hackers down and make them answer for their crimes. The United States does not forget.”

DOJ Says No Epstein ‘Client List,’ but Indictments in Just One Case Could Reveal Possible Pedo Networks if Justice Dept Sought Justice

After years of public outrage over Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking network, the Department of Justice has issued several stunning claims: there is no “client list,” no investigative files worth pursuing, no more files will be publicly produced, Epstein wasn’t murdered, and nothing relevant was found on Epstein’s seized computers other than downloaded child pornography.

The Gateway Pundit lasered in on a missing minute from the released jail cameras, however, showing that the Bondi DOJ has mishandled this release. Their excuse is that prison cameras always delete a minute from their footage.

Trump and Bondi want America to move on because there’s nothing to see here: Epstein killed himself, there’s no clients for child sex trafficking, and no ongoing blackmail operation, and nothing left to prosecute.

But a single name on Epstein’s flight logs: Tyler Grasham, calls that claim into serious question. And unlike the redacted pages and vanished leads surrounding Epstein himself, the Grasham case offers a viable avenue for investigation with ample probable cause, and a clear path to uncovering the wider Epstein client network the DOJ claims doesn’t exist.

Grasham, a prominent Hollywood talent agent who represented child actors, was accused in 2017 of sexually assaulting underage boys under his professional care. Several accusers described similar patterns: grooming, coercion, and exploitation within the entertainment and movie industry.

APA, the agency where Grasham worked, terminated his employment in October 2017.

But no charges were filed against him despite there being multiple accusers, and no federal inquiry followed. The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office reviewed four felony complaints ranging in age from accusers being 15 to in their 20s and decided not to prosecute. The DA ruled that two of the cases were barred by the statute of limitations, and the other two lacked sufficient evidence to support felony charges.

This was a powerful person with access to hundreds of potentially abused kids.
