Multiple Biden officials bash former Cabinet official, gobsmacked by their rise CA governor race

Former Biden officials are anonymously taking aim at one of their own, ex-HHS Sec. Xavier Becerra, as he appears to ascend in the California gubernatorial race.

Becerra has emerged as a leading Democratic candidate in California’s jungle primary for governor after Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell’s dramatic exit from the race last month.

His rise, however, is mystifying his former Biden administration colleagues, according to a report from Politico.

“Six former Biden administration officials, all of whom were granted anonymity to speak candidly about a former colleague, acknowledged the subject of Becerra’s unlikely rise has come to dominate their group chats and conversations,” Politico reported Thursday.

“‘It gets the biggest laugh every time we send around a poll,’ the first former official said, describing the perception across the administration that the former HHS secretary was ineffective on the COVID response, a migrant health crisis at the border and other matters,” Politico continued. “‘He ran one of the most consequential agencies in government at the height of the pandemic. But he took a backseat to Dr. Fauci and his team, didn’t visibly lead on implementation and had to go through layers to get to POTUS even as a Cabinet member.'”

Biden-Appointed Federal Judge Tosses Lawsuit That Would Have Forced Hunter Biden to Register as Foreign Agent Over Burisma and China Deals

A Biden-appointed federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit that sought to compel Hunter Biden to register as a foreign agent under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) for his work with Ukrainian energy giant Burisma and a Chinese Communist Party-linked energy fund.

U.S. District Judge Jia M. Cobb issued the ruling Tuesday in Washington, D.C., shutting down the case brought by the America First Legal Foundation, the conservative legal group founded by former Trump advisor Stephen Miller.

The lawsuit, filed in 2023, argued that Hunter Biden’s business dealings, including his board seat at Burisma Holdings and payments from the China Energy Fund Committee, required him to register as a foreign agent with the Department of Justice.

In a press release at the time of filing, America First Legal Vice President and General Counsel Gene Hamilton wrote:

“As a result of AFL’s dedicated investigation and litigation against the National Archives, it is now crystal clear that Hunter Biden should have registered as a foreign agent while his father served as Vice President. This is just another example of influence peddling and politicians and their families exploiting their positions of power for personal gain and wealth. It is crucial that the DOJ examine this new evidence and take appropriate action based on what appears to be a clear violation of FARA. We’ve only just scratched the surface of the Biden family’s influence peddling and corruption and will continue to conduct rigorous oversight to ensure no one is above the law – not even the President’s son.”

Biden-Paroled Illegal Alien Charged With Sexually Assaulting Elderly Women at Wisconsin Nursing Home

An illegal alien from Nicaragua has been charged with sexually assaulting elderly women at a Wisconsin assisted living facility where he worked.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has lodged a detainer against Julio Cesar Morales Jarquin, who entered the U.S. through the Biden administration’s parole pipeline in 2023.

According to local officials, Morales Jarquin was employed at an assisted living facility in Dane County, Wisconsin, when he allegedly sexually assaulted elderly female residents.

He has been charged with two counts of second-degree sexual assault of an elderly victim.

ICE is urging local officials not to release Morales Jarquin back into the community.

“This illegal alien is charged with two counts of sexual assault of an elderly victim at an assisted living facility,” Department of Homeland Security spokeswoman Lauren Bis said.

“This dirtbag was released into the country by the Biden Administration.”

“DHS is calling on sanctuary politicians in Dane County, Wisconsin to not release this criminal from jail back onto the streets to commit more crimes.”

“We need Wisconsin sanctuary politicians to cooperate with us to remove criminals from our country,” she added.

Biden DOJ Was In Cahoots With SPLC As It Funded Extremist Groups, Former Official Admits

The Biden administration’s Department of Justice and FBI were aware that the Southern Poverty Law Center was paying “informants” in the KKK — and according to former Obama official Norm Eisen, that apparently means donors have nothing to be upset about.

The SPLC (which has spent years demonizing conservatives, including The Federalist) was indicted by a federal grand jury last month for wire fraud and conspiracy to commit concealment money laundering. The SPLC allegedly funneled millions of dollars it received via donations to pay “a covert network of informants” who were part of “violent extremist groups” such as groups like the KKK. The press release for the indictment alleges that SPLC did not disclose to its donors that “some of their donated money was being used to fund the leaders and organizers of racist groups at the same time that the SPLC was denouncing the same groups on its website.” Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said in a statement that SPLC was “manufacturing racism to justify its existence.”

But during a virtual press conference Wednesday held by Democracy Defenders Fund, Eisen suggested the SPLC defrauding donors by funding the KKK could not have been wrong because Biden’s justice agencies were aware of it.

Associate Attorney General in the Biden administration Vanita Gupta noted that the indictment describes “the SPLC’s paid informant program inside extremist organizations” which “[as] acting AG Blanche has confirmed, regularly shared information with federal law enforcement, which I can attest to, having been the beneficiary and having our federal prosecutors been the beneficiary of this type of intel.”

Biden DEI Judge Orders ICE to Release Illegal-alien Murder Suspect; Other DEI Appointees Block Arrests, Deportations

Yet another federal judge appointed in the name of diversity, equity, and inclusion has freed yet another illegal-alien thug whom Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested.

Melissa DuBose, appointed to the U.S. District Court for Rhode Island by President Joe Biden, freed Bryan Rafael Gomez, who isn’t just an illegal-alien criminal. He is also the subject of an Interpol warrant for murder.

DuBose isn’t the first — and certainly won’t be the last — far-left judge to side with criminals over Americans. She is the third Biden DEI appointee to interfere with immigration enforcement in favor of an illegal alien.

Red Notice

Yet another illegal released into the country in 2022 at the border by the Biden administration, Gomez is a fairly typical illegal-alien thug.

“On April 4, 2026, the Worcester [Massachusetts] Police Department arrested Gomez, a criminal illegal alien from the Dominican Republic, for assault and battery,” the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) reported. “The detainer was honored, and after he was released on $500 bail,” ICE arrested him.

But Gomez is more than just a “criminal,” DHS continued:

On January 24, 2023, the Coordination of the Courts of Instruction of the National District of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, issued a criminal arrest warrant for Bryan Rafael Gomez for homicide.

So, of course, DuBose — the black female DEI judge — had to set him loose despite a removal order, perhaps to kill an American.

Fox News’ Bill Melugin explained on X that Gomez had not only a valid deportation order, but also an “Interpol Red Notice arrest warrant for murder in his home [country].”  

“DuBose ordered Gomez be released from ICE custody on the grounds of ‘continuous unlawful detention,’ while ICE argued that Gomez was subject to mandatory detention due to having an international arrest warrant for homicide,” Melugin wrote.

In Pennsylvania The Effort To Hide The Truth About A Stolen Election Just Failed – Now We Get To Find Out What They Were So Desperate To Hide

Heather Honey runs an organization called Verity Vote in Pennsylvania. She is a walking encyclopedia of information on how elections are actually run in this country. In the aftermath of the 2020 election in Pennsylvania, Heather began to hear some very disturbing things. Put simply, she began to acquire information that in counties around the state, more votes had been counted than the number of voters who voted.

I’m not a math whiz, but I think we all understand that this is a big problem. Those two numbers – the number of people who voted and the number of votes cast – have to be the same.

They weren’t.

Heather decided to dig in. As part of that effort, she contacted Lycoming County in northeast Pennsylvania and asked to review the CVR for the county. CVRs are spreadsheet-like digital records (raw data reports) generated by tabulator machines after ballots are scanned. They show how each ballot was interpreted (e.g., vote counts per candidate/race from each tabulator), without linking to individual voters. Access to this information is routine and typically granted informally.

The county told Heather to submit a formal right-to-know request. She did so.

The Office of the Secretary of State in Harrisburg intervened. How precisely that office was even advised of the request remains a little unclear. In any event, in response to what should have been a routine request for public information, the bureaucracy swung into action. The Secretary of State generated an opinion. The CVR for Lycoming County would not be made available. No CVR’s would be made available for any jurisdiction in Pennsylvania. Ever.

Nothing to see here. Move along.

Heather did not move along. She filed suit, and every time a lower court ruled against her, she appealed until her case reached the Pennsylvania Supreme Court.

On April 28, 2026 that court ruled in favor of Heather and other petitioners who had joined her action. The court unanimously reversed the Commonwealth Court and held that Cast Vote Records (CVRs) from the 2020 election are public records subject to disclosure under the Pennsylvania Election Code.

“The Supreme Court ruled that the cast vote records are spreadsheets of raw data pulled from the cast ballots. They are not the physical ballots contained in the ballot box.” Therefore, they are public records, the justices concluded: “This interpretation does not destroy the secrecy of the vote any more than a tally of all votes from a specific election.”

The significance of this decision can hardly be exaggerated. In the aftermath of the 2020 election, significant evidence emerged of huge issues with the tabulation of that vote in Pennsylvania. These were surfaced in a report prepared at the time.

IRS weaponized Johnson Amendment to target conservative pastors while ignoring liberals, DOJ finds

Anew report released Thursday by the Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias reveals what investigators describe as a “stark contrast” and a systemic double standard in how the Biden Internal Revenue Service policed American churches. 

“The Biden IRS … [opened] multiple investigations into Christian churches focused on the content of their sermons. The IRS asked these churches for detailed information about their operations, not just about the alleged violations,” the task force wrote. 

“But during the same time, when other houses of worship gave sermons that reflected different scriptural interpretations on culture war issues, or prayed for Democrat candidates, the Biden IRS appeared to take no action,” the group added.

The task force, which was established by President Donald Trump in an executive order last year, reviewed internal administration discussions, case files and prosecutorial decisions from the Biden administration across 17 federal agencies. 

Beyond the IRS’s apparent targeting of conservative Christian churches, the task force concluded that the Biden administration’s prosecution strategy, internal policies and practices demonstrated an overall anti-Christian bias that permeated throughout the federal government during that period.  

“No American should live in fear that the federal government will punish them for their faith,” said acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, who chaired the task force. “As our report lays out, the Biden Administration’s actions devastated the lives of many Christian Americans. That devastation ended with President Trump.” 

The task force determined that the Biden administration used the Johnson Amendment – a 1954 provision added to the tax code which prohibits 501(c)3 nonprofit organizations from endorsing or opposing political candidates – to probe churches that hold traditional Christian teachings, arguing those positions amounted to political support for Republican candidates. 

Though the amendment, in theory, limits what pastors whose churches have 501(c)3 nonprofit status can say in evaluating candidates running for political office, it has only been “sporadically enforced,” according to the Justice Department.

Biden-Appointed Judge Orders Release of Dominican Illegal Alien Wanted for Murder by Interpol Red Notice Fugitive Now Roaming Free After ICE Arrest!

A Biden-appointed federal judge in Rhode Island has ordered the release of a Dominican illegal alien who is the subject of an Interpol Red Notice for murder in his home country.

The criminal illegal alien, Bryan Rafael Gomez, was arrested by ICE Boston in Worcester, Massachusetts on April 4th.

He had just been picked up locally for domestic abuse when a background check revealed Dominican authorities issued a criminal arrest warrant against him for homicide in 2023.

He is also the subject of an active Interpol Red Notice, an international arrest warrant for murder.

Gomez was detained at an ICE facility in Rhode Island. An immigration judge issued a deportation order on April 28th. But on Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Melissa DuBose, a Biden appointee confirmed in 2024 as the first Black and openly LGBTQ federal judge in Rhode Island, ordered him released on the grounds of “continuous unlawful detention.”

ICE argued Gomez was subject to mandatory detention because of the international homicide warrant. The judge ignored that and set the wanted murderer free.

Biden admin ‘zealously’ probed ‘traditional’ Christians — even keeping tabs on priests: DOJ report

The Biden administration “zealously” investigated, penalized, and engaged in “aggressive prosecutions” of Christians “with traditional biblical views” — ignoring their conscientious objections and even secretly keeping tabs on Catholic priests, a Department of Justice task force found.

The DOJ-led Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias released 14 findings Thursday, confirming the 46th president’s officials “forc[ed] Christians with traditional biblical views to choose whether to live in accordance with their faith or risk violating federal law.”

In a 200-page report, the task force concluded: “The Biden Administration generally tolerated religious beliefs that were privately held but zealously pursued actions to limit Christians’ ability to act in accordance with their faith.”

That included prosecutions of pro-life Christians who were given longer sentences than their pro-abortion peers for violations of a federal law protecting access to abortion clinics or pregnancy resource centers.

The report also unearthed new details about a January 2023 FBI memo sent to multiple field offices that called for the targeting of “radical-traditionalist” Catholics as a result of “baseless allegations” from the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center.

Ten years of Biden weaponization produced enemy list that makes Watergate water under the bridge

Over the past decade, a series of investigations, declassified documents and reporting appear to show a pattern of federal agencies under former President Joe Biden’s administration directing law enforcement, intelligence, and regulatory tools against political opponents, particularly President Donald Trump and his allies.

“What they did, seemingly, was to target people that they knew supported the president and that the president was talking with,” Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., whose records were obtained by the Biden DOJ, told Just The News. 

“You get the feeling that they had a short list or an enemies list or a target list, and while they were trying to pull him in and say it was a conspiracy, then you have to just surmise that their intent was they could surveil us and try to make us coconspirators.” 

The list of targets also includes conservative private citizens, pro-life activists and parents. While roots of the weaponization trace to 2016-era Russia collusion inquiries during Biden’s vice presidency, the pattern intensified after 2021 with Biden as president, with directives that appeared to lower investigative thresholds and prioritized ideological targets. 

A June 2021 National Security Council strategic plan, declassified in 2025, explicitly authorized the DOJ, FBI, DHS, and other agencies to monitor “concerning non-criminal behavior” tied to domestic terrorism. 

It flagged conservative symbols (Gadsden flags, Second Amendment references), active-duty military personnel, gun owners, traditional Catholics, and those spreading what officials called “xenophobic” disinformation or resisting COVID policies and school curricula. Whistleblowers described how this led to FBI probes of school-board parents and pro-life networks, while ignoring comparable left-wing activity.  

The Biden administration also unevenly applied the FACE Act – a federal law prohibiting the use of force, threat of force, or physical obstruction to injure, intimidate, or interfere with anyone obtaining or providing reproductive health services, including abortion, or exercising religious freedom at a place of worship.

A DOJ review found prosecutors collaborated with abortion-rights groups to track pro-life demonstrators’ travel and advocacy, withheld exculpatory evidence, and imposed average prison terms of nearly 27 months on pro-life defendants—more than double those given to pro-abortion violators. 

Federal funding flowed to state-level efforts against Trump. 

In 2022, the Biden DOJ invited Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to apply for a $2 million sole-source grant under a community-violence program while she built her election-interference case against Trump and coordinated with the White House and House January 6 investigators. Willis’s office won the grant and ultimately in total received more than $18 million in DOJ grants during the prosecution.

Also in 2022, the FBI opened its “Arctic Frost” probe into Trump’s alternate-electors strategy, which targeted nearly 400 Trump associates and conservative groups on thin predication, according to internal memos and Senate records. An anti-Trump FBI supervisor, Timothy Thibault, drove the case by circulating liberal media claims, echoing the earlier Crossfire Hurricane pattern.
