Secretary Bessent Announces Regional Action to Block Remittances From any Entity Receiving Public Assistance

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is leading the charge to focus on Minneapolis, Minnesota Somali fraud rings for targeted regional actions.  The IRS Criminal Investigations division has been dispatched to focus on the Minneapolis region to identify fraudulent use of public assistance services, combined with the abuse of federal taxpayer funds.

These fraud cases, ongoing since the early 2020s and intensifying in 2024–2026, involve allegations of misappropriating hundreds of millions (potentially up to several billions) in taxpayer funds intended for child nutrition, autism therapy, housing stabilization, personal care assistance, and other Medicaid programs.

In a remarkable approach, Secretary Bessent announced during a Fox News interview that a regional targeting effort is now underway that will block anyone who receives public assistance from sending money overseas (remittances to foreign countries).  This is not a fee or tax on the remittance, or financial transaction; this is a complete block of their ability to send money overseas.  Anyone receiving public assistance will not be able to send money to foreign lands.

Yes, it seems like this is initially going to be subject to the honest admission of the money sender. However, with the IRS reviewing each transfer and cross referencing to public assistance records anyone who attempts to work around this regulation will be subject to federal laws on financial fraud, wire service fraud and potentially money laundering.  WATCH:

The interagency focus will eventually go nationwide, as with the new USAO position that focuses on public assistance fraud; but for now, that focused effort will target Minnesota.   Minneapolis will be the beta test for a national rollout.

All of the money service businesses in the region will now be reviewed and all financial transactions of $3,000 will be required to have an accompanying Suspicious Activity Report (SAR).  With DHS, FBI and now IRS investigators focused exclusively on the two counties involved in the Somali fraud rings, the fraudsters will be identified and prosecuted.

Interesting – Damning Email Surfaces Showing Mary McCord Sending FBI Information on Her Surveillance of Oathkeepers Group Following 2020 Election Result

Obviously, readers here are well aware of our research files on former DOJ-NSD head, Mary McCord, and her various tentacles of operations against Donald Trump before and after the 2016 election.

To enhance this ongoing effort, Twitter user “pepesgrandma” shares an email exchange from Mary McCord to the FBI in December of 2020 following the election.

Apparently, Mary McCord was conducting surveillance of an Oathkeeper chat room and sending information to the FBI following the November 2020 election, and in the runup to the January 6, 2021 protest.

[SOURCE]

This is interesting on a variety of levels, because we have documented Mary McCord working on the Trump-Russia fabrication [FISA warrant], the CIA [Ukraine] impeachment fabrication [as key staff], the January 6th Committee fabrication [again staff], and the Jack Smith fabrication.  Now we see Mary McCord actively setting up the “insurrection narrative” ahead of the J6 protests.

It appears Mrs. McCord then forwarded the email to someone [REDACTED], likely within the J6 Committee or Jack Smith investigation on Sept 24, 2021.

Justice KBJ Compares Blacks to Disabled Persons Incapable of Voting

It’s one thing to understand that Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson was DEI nomination to the Supreme Court, and another thing entirely to listen to her own words as she proves it.

During oral arguments in ‘Louisiana v. Callais’, a case before the high court considering whether Louisiana’s congressional map (which includes two majority-black districts), where plaintiffs in the case argue the congressional map is unconstitutionally gerrymandered based on race; Justice KBJ compares black people to disabled people.  The comparison for the argument she is trying to make is ridiculous.  Listen:

[SOURCE] There is no benefit in the color of skin that makes voting easier or more difficult. The tailoring of congressional districts to cluster all the black voters into congressional districts is itself ‘racism as policy.’

About The FBI “Prohibited Access” Files

Many articles are being written and much typeset is being exhausted by people talking about the recent revelations that the FBI has a designated information silo called “prohibited access” within its record keeping system.  Allow me to jump this readership well into the future and give you a cliff notes summary of the logical conclusion(s).

The FBI needs a filing system for information designated “Prohibited Access” because the FBI handles extremely sensitive covert operations, including spies both foreign and domestic, within its agency.  The storage of extremely sensitive national security information is not the issue.

Prior to 2007, in the olden days, the files and information were under lock and key in secure rooms, with access only available to the FBI director.

The issue is that since around 2007, the “Prohibited Access” definitions have expanded as FBI leadership began using the designation to hide information that was detrimental to their interests.  The issue is the type of information hidden within the now electronic system, is evidence of activity the FBI conducts that they don’t want the American people to know about.

Jumping you ahead of the curve, there’s even a level of FBI information assembled that exceeds the “Prohibited Access” qualification.  That information is transferred to CIA vaults that are available due to the same legislative authority that empowers the CIA to operate without any oversight [other than the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI)].  The CIA is the “sister agency” to the FBI.

Govt Weaponization Lead Investigator, Ed Martin, Reviewing Background of the Biden Autopen Pardons

In addition to being the President Trump appointed lead investigator of the newly formed “Government Weaponization Working Group,” former DC U.S. Attorney Ed Martin is now, not accidentally, the DOJ lead in charge of pardon reviews.

As more and more information about Joe Biden’s cognitive incapacity begins to surface the question becomes, who was behind the Biden pardon’s using the autopen?  Ed Martin is now looking….

[SOURCE]

I think the awakening American public will soon discover that ultimately those who received pardons came as a conclusion of discussions amid those who were involved in the weaponization of government.  The intersections will tell the story.

Joe Biden’s Dept of Justice – Merrick Garland was AG In Name Only for a Specific Reason

There has been a lot of discussion about who was running the Biden administration against the backdrop of numerous revelations about his cognitive incapacity while in office.  However, one key point keeps being overlooked about the DOJ during his tenure.

Merrick Garland was not selected to be Joe Biden’s Attorney General because the crew in control of the events wanted Merrick Garland as Attorney General.  Garland was removed from his position as DC Circuit Court Justice in order to make room for Ketanji Brown-Jackson to take Garland’s place, get Senate confirmed and then await the resignation of Supreme Court Justice Stephen Bryer. {GO DEEP}

As a standalone Supreme Court nominee, Judge Ketanji Brown-Jackson would have been a radical pick.  Judge Brown-Jackson was a known activist in the DC District Court; however, by removing Garland as chief circuit justice and replacing him with KBJ, who needed Senate confirmation as chief circuit justice, she could get through a later Senate confirmation easier and then sit on the Supreme Court for thirty years.  Garland was removed to make room for KBJ.  It was a strategy.

Garland was a U.S. Attorney General in name only.  The actual lead of the DOJ was from Obama’s crew, Deputy AG Lisa Monaco.

WHY?

Back in 2009 President Obama selected Eric Holder to be Attorney General.  AG Holder’s role was to lead the Lawfare ‘fundamental transformation’ we have seen in the 16 years since.  In the 2010 midterms, Obama was “shellacked,” that triggered AG Holder to ask the Treasury Department to participate in a “special research project.” {Go Deep}

The IRS was asked for the Schedule-B’s of groups who were registered as “patriot” groups (Tea Party Patriots) and other names associated with the political uprising against Barack Obama and the takeover of federal healthcare, ie Obamacare.   The Cincinnati field office of the IRS then sent the DOJ a batch of CD-ROM’s containing the names of the individual donors listed on the IRS 501-c (3)(4) forms.  That list was then compiled and used by the federal government to target the donors and supporters.  A whistleblower came forward; the IRS controversy swirled in 2012.

On September 25, 2014, the Justice Department said Attorney General Eric Holder would resign as soon as his successor is confirmed. Holder was succeeded by Loretta Lynch on April 27, 2015. Lynch was selected because she was the bridge to Hillary Clinton’s campaign in 2016. Remember the Bill Clinton and Loretta Lynch tarmac meeting?  It’s all connected.

[Sidebar – the reporter who broke the story of the Arizona Clinton/Lynch tarmac meeting later died from “suicide.”]

Looks Like Wall Street and GOPe Has Picked Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to Attack for Tariffs They Hate

Wall Street, the Bankers, the Hedge Funds, the multinational corporations, K-Street Lobbying firms, Democrats, Republicans, leftists, globalists, and every other segment of the financial media who define themselves through the prism of their bank accounts, need someone else to blame for the Trump tariffs; because Trump doesn’t care.

It looks like the professional political class have decided to focus all financial firepower against Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick.

With the anticipated reciprocal tariffs announcement tomorrow, Liberty Day as President Trump calls it, the high-finance multinationals and Wall Street crowd are going bananas. Here come the hits against Lutnick.

(Politico) -‘I don’t know anyone that isn’t pissed off at him’: Trump world turns on Lutnick. As ‘Liberation Day’ nears, patience for the Commerce secretary is wearing thin across the Trump administration. (read more)

(New York Post) – Frustration grows with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick ahead of Trump tariff announcement: ‘Loose cannon with half-baked ideas’ (read more)

President Trump Announces Harmeet Dhillon as Head of DOJ Civil Rights Division

Talk about a person who continues failing upward and constantly getting applause for her failures. Wow. Harmeet Dhillon is the opposite of Marc Elias.  Dhillon professionally loses every election case, Elias wins.

After being specifically appointed to focus on the Arizona republican votes, and only to focus on Arizona for 2024, Mrs Dhillon lost every legal election challenge and close ballot contest in the state. All of them. Again, just like the Georgia senate races in 2021 and Arizona race in 2020, Dhillon has nothing to show for the tens of millions in fees paid by the RNC and Trump campaign.

President Trump puts her in charge of future elections via being in charge of the Civil Rights Division of the DOJ.  Almost as if, some entity in the background wanted to ensure the MAGA movement would never gain long-term election integrity benefit.  Imagine that.

Seriously.  Can anyone point to a significant election win that can be attributed to Harmeet Dhillon?  She was specifically assigned to Arizona to focus her efforts for 2024, and it’s a hot mess in AZ again.  She might be friends with Pam Bondi as she was with Ronna McDaniel, that doesn’t mean competency on task.

This is likely not a popular opinion amid a particular part of the MAGA movement.  I can be objectively fair with a review of competence, but Dhillon continues getting more responsibility with each failure.

Karine Jean-Pierre Drops the Name that Matters About Pardons – Now, Watch What Comes Next

As the kids like to say with a wink and a nod, “if you know, you know.”

In the first White House briefing since the Hunter Biden Pardon, White House Spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre worked her way through a tangled mess of justifications for why Joe Biden changed his mind and gave a pardon to his son, Hunter.  However, within the remarks she relied heavily on a name that apparently has leaned-in to the issue of Preemptive Pardons by the outgoing administration.  WATCH (prompted):

It is transparently obvious why Jim Clyburn would be seeking a preemptive pardon from Joe Biden.  Clyburn is singularly the most exposed political figure if anyone starts looking at how the election system ballot operation was used in 2020, 2022 and 2024.  Clyburn knows his risk exposure.

At the end of all the ballot and election fraud, you find one operation above all others.  Watch what happens.
