Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino appears on Fox and Friends morning show to outline some of the historical events under a re-review.

Triggering the sympathy nerve, Mr Bongino repeatedly notes that work pressure upon him is creating ancillary pressure on his personal life, his wife and family.  Unfortunately, decades of visible corruption within his agency have numbed the public sympathy nerve.  Accepting this, we must elevate beyond our frustration, pray for Dan Bongino, for his ability to remain effectively focused, and for his family.

Regarding the message conveyed by the Deputy Director, he appears to accept there is no longer a public “trust” from which to draw. It is the responsibility within Mr Patel and Mr Bongino’s appointed positions to quench American thirst for truth, righteousness & justice.  Put earnest and honest sunlight upon the agency. Do something about the corruption we all know exists; get out of the box; be creative, be ferocious, color outside of the lines – do whatever it takes.

Sean Hannity’s highly caffeinated girlfriend is very concerned about the FBI being pulled away from safe children initiatives.  Meanwhile Deputy Bongino states the agency under their leadership has discovered a cache of previously hidden information and documents that will shed light on several previously dismissed investigative issues.  WATCH:

We have discussed the possibility of President Trump linking liberty and freedom initiatives to trade agreement policy; indeed, there are indications this approach is underway.  Now we see the same approach being applied by Secretary of State Marco Rubio as it pertains to visa entry and censorship.

Rubio announces that entities who participate in the censorship of Americans will not be granted entry visas to enter the United States.

The most important aspect to this shift and affirmation is that it’s not our enemies censoring American speech, it’s our allies.  Individuals, entities, organizations and government officials in Great Britain, Europe and even Canada have put restrictions on American speech and threatened legal action therein.

Here’s the official State Dept announcement:

“Free speech is among the most cherished rights we enjoy as Americans. This right, legally enshrined in our constitution, has set us apart as a beacon of freedom around the world.  Even as we take action to reject censorship at home, we see troubling instances of foreign governments and foreign officials picking up the slack.  In some instances, foreign officials have taken flagrant censorship actions against U.S. tech companies and U.S. citizens and residents when they have no authority to do so.

Today, I am announcing a new visa restriction policy that will apply to foreign nationals who are responsible for censorship of protected expression in the United States.  It is unacceptable for foreign officials to issue or threaten arrest warrants on U.S. citizens or U.S. residents for social media posts on American platforms while physically present on U.S. soil.  It is similarly unacceptable for foreign officials to demand that American tech platforms adopt global content moderation policies or engage in censorship activity that reaches beyond their authority and into the United States.  We will not tolerate encroachments upon American sovereignty, especially when such encroachments undermine the exercise of our fundamental right to free speech.

This visa restriction policy is pursuant to Section 212(a)(3)(C) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, which authorizes the Secretary of State to render inadmissible any alien whose entry into the Unites States “would have potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences for the United States.”  Certain family members may also be covered by these restrictions.” [SOURCE LINK]

Go Rubio!

When you think about the office of the president and all of the functions that are required therein, against the backdrop of Joe Biden being mentally incapable of understanding complex decisions, it does make you wonder what else this “autopen” scandal could encompass.

My biggest question pertains to the Ukraine-Russia conflict that broke out in Biden’s second year, February 24, 2022.  There were a lot of presidential powers flexed in the aftermath of Russia entering Ukraine including all of the sequential sanctions applied by the U.S. that required Biden’s authorization and signature.

Amid all of those presidential directives, we must also consider the CIA and Pentagon were immediately authorized to stand up operations in support of Ukraine.  When the President issues a directive authorizing the Central Intelligence Agency to conduct an operation, the president signs a “finding memo.”  Was that finding memo process also one of the uses for the non-Biden-dependent autopen?

[SOURCE]

I’m not sure how any review of the Biden “autopen” use could be successfully investigated or reviewed other than through the use of a special counsel from outside the DOJ.  Certainly, Ed Martin is beginning to look into the issue, and he does have presidential authority within his appointment as lead of the ‘weaponization working group.’  However, it would seem that Martin would need specific charging instructions to take the investigation into what would likely be a very complicated dynamic.

President Donald Trump’s appointed lead investigator on the DOJ Weaponization Working Group, Ed Martin, appears on a podcast with Mark Halperin to discuss ongoing events around the Trump administration.  Ed Martin is also in charge of the DOJ pardon review and assembly within Main Justice.

Ed Martin was asked by Halprin about the use of the autopen to give presidential pardons during the final months of the Biden administration, against the recent confirmations that Joe Biden was severely cognitively impaired.  Did Joe Biden even know who was getting pardons issued via the use of the autopen writing his signature?

Ed Martin answers by outlining his own questions that he sent via letters to former White House officials.  WATCH (prompted):

Ed Martin notes that Ron Klain, Anita Dunn and Bob Bauer were the gatekeepers within the Biden White House, deciding who would ultimately be allowed to engage within the inner circle.

Earlier today President Trump held a 2-hour phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The objective of President Trump is clear; however, he is battling against recent history and the domestic political environment within Washington DC.

President Trump provides a summary via Truth Social: “Just completed my two-hour call with President Vladimir Putin of Russia. I believe it went very well. Russia and Ukraine will immediately start negotiations toward a Ceasefire and, more importantly, an END to the War. The conditions for that will be negotiated between the two parties, as it can only be, because they know details of a negotiation that nobody else would be aware of.

The tone and spirit of the conversation were excellent. If it wasn’t, I would say so now, rather than later. Russia wants to do largescale TRADE with the United States when this catastrophic “bloodbath” is over, and I agree. There is a tremendous opportunity for Russia to create massive amounts of jobs and wealth. Its potential is UNLIMITED.  Likewise, Ukraine can be a great beneficiary on Trade, in the process of rebuilding its Country. Negotiations between Russia and Ukraine will begin immediately.

I have so informed President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, of Ukraine, Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, President Emmanuel Macron, of France, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, of Italy, Chancellor Friedrich Merz, of Germany, and President Alexander Stubb, of Finland, during a call with me, immediately after the call with President Putin. The Vatican, as represented by the Pope, has stated that it would be very interested in hosting the negotiations. Let the process begin!”

Former HPSCI Chairman Devin Nunes is a man very familiar with the Russiagate nonsense and the weaponization of the DOJ, FBI and CIA against candidate Donald Trump and later President Trump.

Within this interview Nunes hits on a few good points, the most accurate is his focus on the motives and intents of Special Counsel Robert Mueller, who was installed as the cover-up operation for Crossfire Hurricane.  However, Nunes gets a part of the origin a little askew and inaccurately framed.  My context after the interview.  WATCH:

The original agreement between Clinton and Obama going back to 2008 was for Obama to take the nomination, the presidency and then eventually support Hillary Clinton’s 2016 election bid.  Obama would appoint Clinton to Secretary of State, Hillary would then use her office to build wealth for herself and her family, and then HRC would exit the Dept of State to begin her presidential run.

John Podesta would enter the Obama administration as Hillary left in 2013.  Podesta would look out for Hillary’s interests from his position inside the Obama White House.  The Clintons and Obamas never fully trusted each other.  Barack Obama would put all the mechanisms into place that would transition his administration into Hillary Clintons’.  That was always the plan.

In 2015 Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama had a check-in meeting; just touching base to firm up the goals and objectives as Hillary began her campaign launch.  Podesta left the White House to take up position inside the campaign, and Team Obama would maintain Clinton’s interests as planned without an insider.

FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino sat down for a lengthy interview with Fox News host Maria Bartiromo.

Director Patel begins the interview noting how he and Deputy Bongino have spent the majority of the week attending ceremonies for law enforcement and visiting families and colleagues of fallen FBI heroes.  Director Patel then begins to discuss reforming the FBI and his plan to correct all of the political corruption that has permeated his organization.

Patel notes the previous FBI Director and Deputy Director intentionally lied to the American people about their roles in the weaponization of the agency.   Bartiromo plays her role in saying the duo are not going to do anything. Patel counters with his intention to keep delivering the documentary evidence that highlights how FBI leadership played a key role in the weaponization of government.   Patel says, “you’re about to see a wave of transparency, just give us about a week or two.”

Deputy Dan Bongino says, “do you want it done right, or do you want it done correctly.”  Additionally noting, “everything is a priority.” When referencing the possibility of an interconnected conspiracy within the prior threats and attempted assassination of President Trump, Bongino notes “there is no there, there.”  It is a long and wide-ranging discussion.  WATCH:

.

We all want Kash Patel and Dan Bongino to succeed.  Things do take time, but the unwillingness of Patel and Bongino to call out the corrupt lower-level FBI activity that takes in DC and in various field offices is not confidence inspiring.

Bongino and Patel are passionate speakers about their jobs and objectives.

CTH suspected we were going to see this…. and it might just work. President Trump has announced via Truth Social that he will sign an executive order to structurally create a “most favored nation” (MFN) policy toward USA drug manufacturing prices.

Americans must receive a matching price to the lowest cost sold.

President Trump – “For many years the World has wondered why Prescription Drugs and Pharmaceuticals in the United States of America were SO MUCH HIGHER IN PRICE THAN THEY WERE IN ANY OTHER NATION, SOMETIMES BEING FIVE TO TEN TIMES MORE EXPENSIVE THAN THE SAME DRUG, MANUFACTURED IN THE EXACT SAME LABORATORY OR PLANT, BY THE SAME COMPANY??? It was always difficult to explain and very embarrassing because, in fact, there was no correct or rightful answer.

The Pharmaceutical/Drug Companies would say, for years, that it was Research and Development Costs, and that all of these costs were, and would be, for no reason whatsoever, borne by the “suckers” of America, ALONE. Campaign Contributions can do wonders, but not with me, and not with the Republican Party. We are going to do the right thing, something that the Democrats have fought for many years.

Therefore, I am pleased to announce that Tomorrow morning, in the White House, at 9:00 A.M., I will be signing one of the most consequential Executive Orders in our Country’s history. Prescription Drug and Pharmaceutical prices will be REDUCED, almost immediately, by 30% to 80%. They will rise throughout the World in order to equalize and, for the first time in many years, bring FAIRNESS TO AMERICA!

I will be instituting a MOST FAVORED NATION’S POLICY whereby the United States will pay the same price as the Nation that pays the lowest price anywhere in the World. Our Country will finally be treated fairly, and our citizens Healthcare Costs will be reduced by numbers never even thought of before. Additionally, on top of everything else, the United States will save TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS. Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” [source]

We have witnessed a lot of crazy in the past several years, but this just about takes the proverbial cake.

Current Syrian leader Ahmed al-Sharaa, was the leader of al-Qaeda in Syria and had a $10 million bounty on his head as a designated terrorist only a few months ago.  Today, French President Emmanuel Macron welcomed him to the presidential palace and called for the EU and USA to drop sanctions against the terrorist network.

PARIS — French President Emmanuel Macron called on the United States and the European Union to lift sanctions against Syria on Wednesday after hosting the Syrian leader Ahmed al-Sharaa on his first visit to Europe.

The French leader said Washington should “rush to lift sanctions,” maintain troops in Syria and then review the situation at a later date.

“The interest of all, including of the Americans, is today to act and accompany us in lifting sanctions on the Syrian people,” Macron said at a press conference alongside al-Sharaa.

Al-Sharaa, a former Al Qaeda member, has received a cautious welcome from the international community after his forces toppled brutal Syrian dictator Bashar Assad late last year.
