We Caught FBI Using “Minority Report Style” Secret Form Pressuring Gun Owners To Forfeit Their Rights

Gun Owners of America just caught the FBI coercing more people into giving up their Second Amendment rights!

Thanks to a FOIA request by GOA’s lawyers, we uncovered even more evidence on the FBI’s unconstitutional and unlawful NICS Indices program.

In 2019, it was discovered that the FBI was using a document titled “NICS Indices Self-Submission Form” that purported to allow American citizens to “voluntarily” waive their Second Amendment rights. 

By completing this FBI form, law-abiding Americans allegedly “consent” for the FBI to enter their names into the National Instant Criminal Background Check System, marking them as permanently prohibited from purchasing or possessing firearms or ammunition.  And as the form warns, once an individual waives their rights, it’s impossible to get them back.

Now, the mere existence of this form was troubling, and it clearly violates the Second Amendment and even the Gun Control Act. But at that point, we weren’t sure how extensively the FBI was using the form, if in fact it was being used at all.

Fast-forward a few years to 2022.

GOA published our initial findings that the FBI had provided these forms to agents for use on American gun owners, who were pressured into signing and therefore “voluntarily” relinquished their rights to purchase, possess, and use firearms.

These FOIA records painted a vivid picture of FBI agents showing up to people’s homes, place of work, etc., presenting to them these forms, and “asking” them to declare themselves to be a “danger” to themselves or others, or lacking the “mental capacity to adequately contract or manage” their lives.

You can imagine how coercive these sorts of FBI visits must have been.  The FBI’s use of this secret form has occurred during recent years when the bureau has become increasingly politicized and weaponized against Americans, including gun owners.

House Judiciary subpoenas FBI for docs pertaining to bureau’s alleged misconduct under Biden admin

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan on Monday subpoenaed the FBI for information and documents related to its investigation into alleged misconduct that occurred in the bureau during the Biden administration.

The committee previously subpoenaed the bureau for the documents during the 118th Congress, but Jordan claimed former FBI Director Christopher Wray failed to produce the necessary material. 

Jordan accused the FBI of departing from its “public safety mission,” under the Biden administration and Wray’s leadership in a letter to FBI Director Kash Patel, and claimed it also “refused any real transparency or accountability for its actions.”

“When President [Donald] Trump nominated you to serve as the Director of the FBI, he rightly called you an ‘advocate for truth, accountability, and the Constitution’ who will ‘bring back Fidelity, Bravery, and Integrity to the FBI,'” Jordan wrote. “During this critical time in the FBI’s history, when Americans deeply distrust the FBI, it is important that you succeed in restoring public confidence and creating much-needed transparency.”

Another Sneaky Little Secret About the FBI

FBI director nominee Kash Patel has often joked that on day one in office he would shut down FBI Headquarters and reopen it the next day as a Museum of the Deep State. Rueful joke aside, he may not know how close to the truth he really is. The FBI has a sneaky little secret that has probably escaped the attention of its most ardent fans at DOJ. It’s even possible that the cloistered and suited gangsters on the 7th Floor don’t even know how easy it could be to topple the entire enterprise. 

The FBI has been in the middle of countless scandals, illegal behavior, lying on warrants, spying on people when they have no basis, making up charges, setting perjury traps, bungling Ruby Ridge and Waco with deadly results, and investigating people like President Trump.

We’ve come a long way from this gauzy memory of the FBI, America.

The law enforcement agency turned Stasi sends entire SWAT teams to targets’ homes at 5 in the morning, even after those same subjects offer to turn themselves in in a business suit accompanied by an attorney. They’ve been ordered to use “shock and awe” methods for trespassing at the Capitol. And those are just some of the dangerous shenanigans the nation’s foremost law enforcement agency has pulled. 

If so inclined, however, the Trump Administration could shut the FBI down more easily than Steven D’Antuono set up a sucker who lives in a vacuum store to “kidnap” a governor. In other words, really, really easy—on paper, anyway.

Tom Homan Confirms ICE Operation Leak Points to the FBI — Criminal Investigation Underway: “Not Only Will This Person Lose Their Job and Lose Their Pension, They’re Going to Go to Jail”

Tom Homan confirmed that a series of leaks related to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations may have originated within the FBI.

The Gateway Pundit previously reported that a massive Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operation set to take place in Los Angeles, targeting thousands of illegal immigrants with criminal records, was leaked to the far-left press.

According to the leaked documents, the raid—dubbed Operation Compliance—was designed to be one of the largest immigration enforcement efforts in recent years, targeting primarily individuals with outstanding deportation orders, criminal convictions, and known gang affiliations.

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem openly criticized the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and appeared to accuse the agency of leaking sensitive information concerning impending “large-scale” immigration raids.

FBI finds secret JFK assassination records after Trump order

The FBI just discovered about 2,400 records tied to President Kennedy’s assassination that were never provided to a board tasked with reviewing and disclosing the documents, Axios has learned.

  • The still-secret records are contained in 14,000 pages of documents the FBI found in a review triggered by President Trump‘s Jan. 23 executive order demanding the release of all JFK assassination records.

Why it matters: The discovery — 61 years after Kennedy was killed in Dallas — follows decades of government reluctance to release all documents related to the assassination, which fueled a mountain of conspiracy theories.

  • The existence of the new documents was disclosed Friday to the White House, when the Office of the Director of National Intelligence submitted its plan to disclose the assassination records under Trump’s order.

Zoom in: The contents of the newly found records are closely held secrets. The three sources who relayed their existence to Axios said they hadn’t seen the documents.

  • But the discovery of thousands of records on one of the most scrutinized events in U.S. history is likely to raise questions about the procedures for vetting and releasing information across the entire government.
  • “This is huge. It shows the FBI is taking this seriously,” said Jefferson Morley, an expert on the assassination and vice president of the nonpartisan Mary Ferrell Foundation, the nation’s largest source of online records of Kennedy’s killing. He sued the U.S. government for more records.
  • “The FBI is finally saying, ‘Let’s respond to the president’s order,’ instead of keeping the secrecy going,” Morley said.

Reality check: The remaining records to be disclosed — as well as the newly discovered tranche of 2,400 reports — are unlikely to definitively prove whether Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone-wolf assassin or was part of a broader conspiracy, experts say.

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem Blasts FBI as ‘Corrupt’ — Appears to Accuse Bureau of Leaking Information on ‘Large-Scale’ ICE Raids

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem openly criticized the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), calling the agency as “corrupt.”

Noem’s fiery statement appeared to accuse the FBI of leaking sensitive information concerning impending “large-scale” immigration raids orchestrated by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in the Los Angeles region.

The raids, which are a joint effort involving ICE, the FBI, and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), came to public attention through an internal government document that was mysteriously leaked to the far-left press.

You Won’t Believe How Many FBI Employees Were Investigating Trump Supporters

FBI officials have caved to demands from the Justice Department, providing a list of agents involved in the J6 Capitol riot investigations — and it’s an insanely high number.

Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove instructed FBI leadership to meet a deadline of noon Tuesday to submit the names of these agents and analysts. This follows his earlier directive to fire eight senior FBI officials.

CNN reports that “More than 5,000 names were submitted” to the Justice Department in response to Bove’s demand. 

Five thousand? Are you kidding me?

To put it into proper context, there are only roughly 13,000 agents and 38,000 total FBI employees. This means that roughly 13% of the entire FBI was tasked with investigating protestors. 

If that seems excessive to you, you’re not the only one.

CNN, of course, is outraged that the mask is off the anti-Trump Gestapo.

Acting FBI Director Refuses to Give Names of Officials Involved in Jan 6 Cases, Trump Investigations

Acting FBI Director Brian Driscoll is reportedly refusing to give the names of the officials involved in January 6 cases and Trump investigations.

Brian Driscoll is currently serving as Acting FBI Director as Trump nominee Kash Patel awaits confirmation.

CNN reported that “At least six FBI leaders” have been removed or told to resign by Monday.

President Trump fired the head of the FBI Washington Field Office, David Sundberg, canned 20 other heads of offices. As many as 88 FBI officials were marched out of their offices on Friday.

According to an email from acting Director Brian Driscoll and reviewed by The Gateway Pundit, each field office is required to submit a list of all personnel, current and former, who were involved in January 6th investigations/prosecutions by noon on Tuesday, February 4th.

However, it is now being reported that Brian Driscoll is on thin ice because he refuses to deliver a list of officials involved in the witch hunt of Trump and political persecution of J6ers.

Prince Andrew AGAIN in the Spotlight as FBI’s Kash Patel Vows To Uncover the ‘Jeffrey Epstein List’, and Evidence Surfaces of Royal’s Continued Relation With Late Pedophile

Another week, another bad Prince Andrew scandal and another Jeffrey-Epstein linked bombshell, as a damaging email has arisen in an unrelated lawsuit, showing that the Royal allegedly lied to the public yet again in his car-crash BBC interview and that his relationship with the late pedophile continued for far longer than he has previously admitted.

This latest development comes as the man chosen by US President Donald J. Trump to lead the FBI, Kashyap ‘Kash’ Patel, has vowed to expose those in positions of power who had links to Epstein’s sex trafficking ring.

The British press is aflame with the prospect of Prince Andrew facing an FBI investigation, especially on the revelation of Andrew promising Epstein that they would ‘play some more soon!’ many weeks after the duke supposedly cut ties with him.

Daily Mail reported:

“The Duke of York sent the bombshell email pledging to ‘keep in close touch’, despite claiming he had ceased all contact with the American financier weeks earlier, it has been revealed.

The fresh evidence infers that Andrew could’ve lied in his disastrous 2019 Newsnight interview, where he insisted he had stopped seeing Epstein in early December 2010, when they were photographed walking through New York’s Central Park. Despite this claim, a February 2011 email has been uncovered that Andrew wrote to his predator friend: ‘Keep in close touch and we’ll play some more soon!!!!’”

And that was not all – as the duke suffered with yet another disclosure this week, as court documents revealed his most trusted lieutenant confided in an alleged Chinese spy – Yang Tengo – that Andrew’s infamous Emily Maitlis BBC interview was ‘hugely ill-advised and unsuccessful.’

FBI Is Still Stalling and Refuses to Turn Over the Seth Rich Records – The Information Could Take Down Democrat Party for a Generation

The FBI is stalling again. The world’s top intelligence agency is still refusing to turn over the Seth Rich records to Attorney Ty Clevenger.

Attorney Ty Clevenger is the bulldog attorney who has been working for years to get to the bottom of the Seth Rich murder. His requests continue to be denied by the FBI. Kash Patel cannot be sworn in as FBI Director soon enough!

Clevenger previously investigated who supplied the DNC and Podesta emails to Wikileaks during the 2016 election cycle. This was always the key to the Trump-Russia collusion nonsense.  No proof was ever offered up by the fake news legacy media, Democrats, or the intelligence community involving this scandal. If Russia did not supply the DNC emails to WikiLeaks then this was more proof that the DOJ’s Russia collusion story was a complete lie used to fool the American public.

Seth Rich was a DNC operative who was mysteriously murdered in the summer of 2016 weeks before Wikileaks released their Clinton email investigation. The murder is still unsolved.

After years of denying they had anything related to Seth Rich, the FBI and DOJ were caught lying over and over again.  In September 2023, a judge finally demanded the FBI and DOJ provide all they had regarding Seth Rich to Attorney Clevenger. The FBI responded requesting another 66 years before releasing the information. They wanted it moved out like the JFK assassination reports.

Then in late November 2023, a Federal Judge ruled the FBI must hand over evidence regarding former DNC employee Seth Rich’s murder to Ty Clevenger.

No media outlet has covered the Seth Rich story as extensively as The Gateway Pundit.

But since the November 2023 court order the FBI has completely dug in in the coverup of the Seth Rich murder. Chris Wray’s FBI continues to defy the court and will not release the laptop computer.

On Thursday, Attorney Ty Clevenger released a string of tweets on the latest in the Seth Rich investigation.
