Michigan Board of Elections Tosses Top Republican Candidates from Governor’s Race Including James Craig and Perry Johnson – Claim They Did Not Turn in Enough Valid Signatures…UPDATE: MUCH MORE COMING

If you can’t beat them — Toss them.

The Michigan Bureau of Elections, a corrupt group that allowed the 2020 state election to be stolen by hundreds of ballot traffickers and tens of thousands of illegal ballots, disqualified the two leading Republican candidates for the upcoming gubernatorial election.

Former Detroit police Chief James Craig and billionaire businessman Perry Johnson were knocked out of the race today by the leftist election group. The Michigan Bureau of Elections claims they do not have enough legitimate signatures on their petitions to enter the race.

Craig and Perry were both very attractive Republican candidates who were vying for the Republican challenger to wicked Gretchen Whitmer.

This was an easy way to eliminate the competition early.

The Detroit News reported:

Former Detroit police Chief James Craig and businessman Perry Johnson, two of the top candidates for the Republican nomination for governor, didn’t submit enough valid petition signatures to make the ballot, according to findings from the Michigan Bureau of Elections.

The bureau’s revelations Monday evening shook up the 2022 race to be Michigan’s governor, potentially leaving Republicans without their most well-known candidate, Craig, and without their wealthiest hopeful, Johnson.

If the bureau’s reviews hold, five of the 10 candidates who submitted signatures to run for governor wouldn’t make the ballot. Three other GOP candidates for governor were also found to have insufficient signatures: financial adviser Michael Markey of Grand Haven, Michigan State Police Capt. Michael Brown of Stevensville and entrepreneur Donna Brandenburg of Byron Center.

The Same FBI Agents that Knew Hillary Was Behind Trump-Russia Lie Were Members of Mueller Team that Ignored This Fact

The FBI agents who knew Hillary was behind the Trump – Russia lie were the same agents on the Mueller team who neglected to include this important information in Mueller’s report.

In one of the debates, Hillary Clinton made a big deal about her lie that candidate Trump was involved with Russia. She lied and we all knew it.

A few days ago TGP asked why the Mueller and Weissmann gang never uncovered that Hillary was behind the Trump – Russia lie?

The reason Hillary was never mentioned as being behind the Trump – Russia lie is because the Mueller gang didn’t want to report it. We know this because the same agents who knew Hillary was behind this crime were also members of the Mueller gang.

Mueller was asked about this when he was brought in front of Congress. At this moment the Republicans on the committee were ready. Rep. Steve Chabot asked Mueller about this.

The Conservative Treehouse shares:

Robert Mueller was appointed to look into the Trump-Russia collusion accusations. How could the fact that Team Clinton created the Trump-Russia collusion hoax, not be part of the investigative purview? This question is specifically underlined by the fact, the same FBI officials who knew the Alfa-Bank material came from Clinton, were the same FBI officials on Robert Mueller’s team…

…Peter Strzok would know because he had been investigating the Trump-Russia collusion hoax since early 2016. The Crossfire Hurricane investigation was triggered July 31, 2016, and by the time Michael Sussmann was selling the Alfa-Bank hoax the FBI was aware all of the material was coming from political opposition research and Fusion GPS.

When Peter Strzok transferred into the Mueller investigation in May 2017, why didn’t Strzok tell Mr. Mueller and Andrew Weissmann there was “no there there,” and the material came from the Clinton campaign operatives?

When you realize the same FBI investigators flowed through 2016 into the Mueller team in 2017, the questions are obvious. How could the origin of Trump-Russia hoax not be in the purview of the Special Counsel?

They all knew Hillary was behind the Trump – Russia lie. We did too. Everyone knew. We also knew Mueller and his gang and the Democrats and RINOs were all lying and pretending they didn’t know.

'Blue-Checks' Furious After Henry Kissinger Says Ukraine Should Cede Territory For Peace With Russia

Veteran US statesman Henry Kissinger has urged the West to stop trying to inflict a crushing defeat on Russian forces in Ukraine, warning that it would have disastrous consequences for the long term stability of Europe.

“I hope the Ukrainians will match the heroism they have shown with wisdom,” Kissinger warned an audience at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, adding with his famous sense of realpolitik that the proper role for the country is to be a neutral buffer state rather than the frontier of Europe.

As The Telegraph's Ambrose Evans-Pritchard reports, Kissinger's comments came amid growing signs that the Western coalition against Vladimir Putin is fraying badly as the food and energy crisis deepens, and that sanctions may have reached their limits.

The former US secretary of state and architect of the Cold War rapprochement between the US and China told the gathering of elites that it would be fatal for the West to get swept up in the mood of the moment and forget the proper place of Russia in the European balance of power.

“Negotiations need to begin in the next two months before it creates upheavals and tensions that will not be easily overcome.

Ideally, the dividing line should be a return to the status quo ante.

Pursuing the war beyond that point would not be about the freedom of Ukraine, but a new war against Russia itself,” he said.

The architect of the détente with China under the Nixon administration suggested that 'status quo' ante means "how things were before," implying that Ukraine should accept a peace deal to restore the situation on February 24, where Russia formally controlled the Crimea peninsula and informally controlled part of the Donetsk region in east Ukraine.

SHOCKING GEORGIA ELECTION CRIMES UNCOVERED: 1.7 Million Ballot Images Illegally Destroyed – Video Monitoring Missing for 181,000 Drop Box Ballots

In a press conference on Monday VoterGA shared some more shocking information related to criminal actions in the 2020 Election in Georgia.

VoterGA is a non-profit, non-partisan, tax-exempt organization created by a coalition of citizens working to restore election integrity in Georgia.

In their press conference on Monday VoterGA reported that they have identified more illegal actions from the 2020 Election in the state.

VoterGA announced today their dropbox video survey team determined that 102 Georgia counties were unable to produce dropbox surveillance videos from the November 2020 election. The team obtained admissions from 72 counties that all of the videos intended to monitor drop boxes for ballot trafficking were destroyed. VoterGA volunteers made the determinations by submitting Open Records Requests (ORR) for the videos from each county. Thus, video monitoring is missing for 181,507 cast ballots.

At a November 9, 2021 press conference, VoterGA announced that their ballot image analysis team determined at least 70 Georgia counties were unable to produce all the original ballot images from the November 2020 election. Digital ballot images are created automatically by the Dominion voting system for results tabulation. The team obtained admissions from 56 counties that most or all of their ballot images were unavailable. A total of 1.7 million images were destroyed.

According to state and federal law, all elections records must be retained. In fact, federal law requires a 22- month retention period for election records while state law requires a 24-month retention period for election documents that are formerly considered to include videos or electronic digital files. [USC 52 20701, O.C.G.A. 21-2-73].

Georgia’s 2020 Election results were subverted by corruption and illegal acts. Blame all of this on the corrupt Governor Kemp and Secretary of State Raffensperger who allowed this to happen.

Below is VoterGA’s press release.

Corrupt FBI Lied About Hillary-Supplied Information Claiming It Came from DOJ and Not Hillary

The DOJ’s John Durham dropped another bombshell yesterday in the Michael Sussmann case.

We knew that Hillary was behind the fake Russia-collusion story. Last week her Campaign Manager, Robby Mook, said under oath that Hillary gave the approval to push the Alfa Bank story that they all knew was garbage.

Yesterday it was reported in the courtroom by John Durham’s team that the FBI knowingly passed along the faulty information from the Hillary campaign to fellow workers claiming it was from the DOJ while hiding the fact that it came from the Hillary gang.

Bonchie at Red State reports:

Sussmann is charged with lying to the FBI, something he allegedly did when he hid who he was working for while sharing the now-debunked Alfa-Bank story. That disinformation campaign, which was meant to falsely assert Donald Trump was colluding with the Russians during the 2016 election, has now been directly tied to Hillary Clinton during the trial after it was revealed that she approved its dissemination.

But apparently, Sussmann and Hillary Clinton by proxy weren’t the only ones lying. According to documents presented by Durham, the FBI lied about the Alfa Bank smear’s provenance, telling agents it had come from the DOJ. In reality, Sussmann had brought it directly to the FBI, with the leadership being aware of its origins as badly done political opposition research.

Wow. Stuart Varney Lectures President Trump on Moving on from Stolen Election – “Republicans Don’t Want You to Look Back”

President Donald Trump joined Stuart Varney on FOX Business Network on Tuesday morning.

Stuart Varney started the interview by asking President Trump about the election today in Georgia. Trump is backing David Perdue over Brian Kemp in the gubernatorial race. Brian Kemp allowed Democrats and their ballot traffickers to steal the presidential election and then two US Senate seats in 2020 and early 2021.

Stuart Varney insisted that the American public does not want to look back on the 2020 election.

It was a disgraceful performance by Stuart Varney. He needs to get out of his media bubble some time.

President Trump: Brian Kemp did an awful job on election integrity.

Stuart Varney: And he’s going to win… What I hear from a number of Republicans is that they don’t want you to look back to the 2020 election and rehash it. They want to look forward to what we’re going to do with this economy and this society going forward. What do you say to that?

President Trump: Well, I do that. But if you don’t study what happened and you don’t find. We know what happened. All you have to do is see “2000 Mules” or go on Truth…

Stuart Varney: That’s not what people are talking about. People don’t want you to do that!

President Trump: No, I think you have to look back to find out, You have to look at history, Stuart!

Wow. Stuart is just lost.

Kudos to Trump for mentioning “2000 Mules” on FOX Busines Network. Surprisingly, the channel did not bleep it out.

Moscow explains Ukraine operation slowdown

The move is intentional and allows civilians the chance to evacuate, Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu says

The slowdown of Russia’s military operation in Ukraine is intentional with a view to evacuating the population and avoiding casualties among civilians, Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu said on Tuesday.

Russia’s Armed Forces are creating humanitarian corridors and announcing ceasefires to ensure the safe evacuation of residents from encircled settlements, he said, despite this approach stalling the progress of the country’s forces.

“Of course, this slows down the pace of the offensive, but it is being done deliberately to avoid civilian casualties,” he explained at a meeting of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) Council of Defense Ministers.

Unlike the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Shoigu said, Russian troops are not carrying out strikes on civilian infrastructure where there may be people nearby. Instead, identified firing positions and Ukrainian military facilities are being hit with “high-precision weapons,” he added.

The defense minister also noted that Western countries, fearing the defeat of Kiev’s forces, are expediting shipments of lethal aid to Ukraine and are sending military advisers and personnel from private military companies, adding that the number of foreign mercenaries in the country has already exceeded 6,000.

However, despite punitive sanctions on Moscow and the extensive help provided to Kiev by the West, Shoigu maintained that Russia will continue its special operation until all its objectives are achieved.

WHO Says Monkeypox 'Can Be Contained' As US Distributes Vaccines

The World Health Organization says the current monkeypox outbreak is unusual but can still be stopped, according to Bloomberg.

"It’s not something we’ve seen over the last few years," said Sylvie Briand, director of the WHO’s epidemic and pandemic preparedness and prevention department Tuesday.

According to Briand, the disease is 'still containable' - and that countries can stop transmission by raising awareness and teaching people to recognize the symptoms.

The illness itself begins like many acute viral diseases – with high fever, muscle pain and swollen lymph nodes. Those symptoms can be followed by a skin rash often starting in the face before spreading elsewhere and sometimes growing into fluid-containing pustules that form a scab. The illness usually lasts two to four weeks. -Bloomberg

According to the latest data reported by BNO, There have been 178 confirmed cases and 90 suspected cases across 19 nations.

Monkeypox is less contagious than smallpox, and has milder symptoms. Both viruses belong to the same genus, Orthopoxvirus, which includes the vaccina virus, and the cowpox virus.

Bloomberg also reports that "a large proportion of cases have been among homosexual men, and may have been transmitted along sexual networks.

To address the situation, dozens of Jynneos vaccine are being released in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).

Hungary declares state of emergency

Prime Minister Viktor Orban cites the conflict in Ukraine to invoke extraordinary powers

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban declared a state of emergency on Tuesday, citing the conflict in Ukraine, just hours after parliament approved the measure as a way for Budapest to respond to crisis situations.

Orban announced the emergency in a video address on his Facebook page. The emergency regime takes effect at midnight, and the first measures will be revealed on Wednesday.

“To safeguard Hungary’s national security interests, to make sure we stay out of the war and to protect Hungarian families, the government needs room to maneuver and the ability to act immediately,” Orban said in the announcement.

Earlier on Tuesday, the Hungarian parliament passed a constitutional amendment giving the prime minister authority to declare an emergency if there is a war or humanitarian disaster in a neighboring country, in addition to the existing crisis categories. Orban’s critics claim this would allow him to “rule by decree” and bypass parliament.

Similar criticism was levelled against Orban in March 2020, when parliament granted him sweeping emergency powers to deal with Covid-19. He insisted the emergency would be limited in duration, and it was eventually revoked in June that year.

‘We Will Come for Your Family’: Child Victim Threatened by Cops for Reporting the Mayor Raped Him

Contrary to what many disinformation agents will lead you to believe child sex abuse is not reserved to the the Deep State, Democratic party, and Hollywood. Republicans are regularly caught committing the same acts and as we’ve shown, there is no difference between a blue child rapist and a red one.

What’s more, while elite politicians are caught committing these child sex crimes like former Speaker of the House, Dennis Hastert, the scope of the problem is far greater. A potential reason this problem has reached epidemic proportions is the lack of punishment these monsters face after hurting children and law enforcement’s role in failing to prosecute or even investigate the predators.

Our archives are full of cops who escape accountability for preying on children. One could easily chock this up to their blue privilege and many times it is. But what about the cops who look the other way when their political superiors are doing the preying?

As the Free Thought Project has previously reported, the problem of child sex trafficking goes all the way to the top in the UK as well. Sir Edward Heath, the former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom was found by the police chief to be a pedophile. Just like what happens in the US, his vile crimes against children were allegedly covered up by law enforcement for decades.

One victim recently came forward to detail his chilling accusations of his treatment by police when he reported that he’d been abused by a convicted UK politician, John Humphreys.

Humphreys is currently serving a 21-year sentence that was handed down last August for raping two young boys when he served as a primary school governor — a job similar to a school board superintendent in the states.

His sentence should have come much sooner, according to a former victim of his, but police officers from the Devon and Cornwall police departments helped cover it up. Not only did these officers allegedly cover up the crimes of Humphreys but they threatened the victim after he came forward.

In a report from iNews.com, it was revealed that Humphreys was allowed to keep his seat as a Tory councilor despite his arrest for child rape offenses — for three years. The council knew of his charges, knew he was being investigated for further charges, yet allowed this child rapist to remain in their ranks for three more years.

One of Humphreys’ victims was first raped by the councilman in 1999. When he finally mustered up the courage to tell his parents, they immediately took him to the Exmouth police department where he made a full signed statement. Instead of helping him, however, police harassed him.

“Then I heard nothing at all, except I was regularly harassed by local police officers afterwards. In 2005 they just said that the case had been dropped,” the victim told iNews.

The World Economic Forum Deleted a Document Revealing That Wuhan’s Mayor Attended WEF Events.

The World Economic Forum has removed a document from its website, which revealed the attendance of the Mayor of the Chinese city of Wuhan – which hosts the lab believed to be responsible for COVID-19 – at one of its events.

Former Wuhan Mayor Tang Liangzhi is included on the World Economic Forum’s (WEF) list of attendees to its 2013 “Meeting of the New Champions.” The event, hosted in China, is described by the WEF as the “premier gathering in Asia of leaders of multinational corporations [and] governments.” “The Meeting was held in close collaboration with the Government of the People’s Republic of China,” explains the WEF meeting summary.

A link containing a 42-page document, which revealed hundreds of attendees at the event, reroutes users to an error page reading “Apologies – this section of our website is currently unavailable.” An archived version of the webpage, however, reveals a document containing a list of the event’s participants, including the then-Mayor of the Wuhan Municipal Government Tang Liangzhi.

Tang, 61, served as Mayor of Wuhan from 2011 to 2014 before serving in the same role in other cities including Chengdu and Chongqing. He was later promoted in December 2021 to the Party Branch Secretary of the Anhui Provincial Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), which has been identified as the “highest-ranking entity overseeing” China’s United Front by the U.S. government.

The effort aims to “to co-opt and neutralize sources of potential opposition to the policies and authority of its ruling Chinese Communist Party” and “influence overseas Chinese communities, foreign governments, and other actors to take actions or adopt positions supportive of Beijing’s preferred policies.” The U.S. State Department also compares the United Front to the Chinese regime’s “magic weapon” to compromise Western politicians and elites.

Tang’s ties to Wuhan follow controversy of the city and one of its premier laboratories, the Wuhan Institute of Virology, potentially being the source of COVID-19. The lab, which is under the control of the Chinese Communist Party, manipulated bat coronaviruses with striking genetic similarities to COVID-19 to become deadlier to humans.

The WEF has also been accused of exploiting COVID-19 to advance its transformational social, political, and business agenda through its push for the “Great Reset.”

Unprecedented: US Air Force To Join Israelis In Mock Attack On Iran

As if an intense proxy war with nuclear powerhouse Russia isn’t bringing enough heat, the Biden White House has now given the greenlight for unprecedented U.S. participation in an Israeli drill simulating a massive attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities.

According to The Times of Israel, “The U.S. Air Force will serve as a complementary force, with refueling planes drilling with Israeli fighter jets as they simulate entering Iranian territory and carrying out repeated strikes.” The mock attack on Iran will happen this month, as part of a broader Israeli military exercise called “Chariots of Fire.”

In September, Israeli Defense Forces Chief of Staff Aviv Kohavi said the IDF had “greatly accelerated” preparations for an attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities.

“Dozens of Israeli air force fighter jets are expected to take part in the exercise and fly hundreds of miles from Israel to the west above the Mediterranean in a way that simulates a flight route to Iran,” reports Axios. General Michael Kurilla, commander of U.S. Central Command, landed in Israel on Tuesday to observe the exercises.

Though there’s no indication of an imminent real-world strike, U.S. participation in the drill is an implicit endorsement of an Israeli-initiated war of aggression—and a signal that the United States might not only agree to it, but participate.

If so, it wouldn’t be the first time USAF tankers facilitated aggression in the region: Before a halt was announced in 2018, American tankers controversially aided Saudi strikes in Yemen. In addition to directly killing civilians—including 131 men, women and children gathered at a 2015 wedding celebration—the Saudi campaign has plunged Yemen into one of the world’s largest humanitarian crises.

To the Quincy Institute’s Trita Parsi, the hawkish participation in the Israeli drill is a “puzzling” extension of a pattern, as Biden perpetuates an aggressive Trump-like posture toward Iran that Biden previously condemned:

“Biden heavily criticized former President Donald Trump’s decision to withdraw from the nuclear deal and opposed his ‘maximum pressure’ strategy seeking to force Iran to capitulate by crushing its economy through unprecedented sanctions. Yet, 18 months into his presidency, Biden has yet to shift away from Trump’s sanctions policy.”

Arrest Hillary Clinton and All Who Supported the Russian Collusion Hoax

Hillary Clinton is GUILTY of manipulating the 2016 US Presidential Election. No one believed Donald Trump when he said that the Russian collusion narrative was “fake news.” Top Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook testified under oath in federal court and confirmed that Hillary Clinton devised the Russia/Alfa Bank rumors. She encouraged her people to promote the hoax to the press in a failed attempt to beat Donald Trump.

Clinton campaign attorney Michael Sussmann first faced trial for the Clintons’ crime. The judge, Christopher Cooper, was an Obama appointee and was given an order to spare “the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee … [of] potential embarrassment.” The truth still came to light.

On July 28, 2016, former CIA Director John Brennan briefed former President Obama on the plan to lie to the public as “a means of distracting the public from her use of a private email server.” The sitting president was fully aware of the plan to smear Donald Trump’s name, and agreed to go along with “a proposal from one of her foreign policy advisers to vilify Donald Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference by the Russian security service.”

Hillary went as far as to involve the FBI in her grand lie. No one could connect Trump to Russia or Alfa Bank, but Clinton and her campaign continued to promote the story. “Computer scientists have apparently uncovered a covert server linking the Trump Organization to a Russian-based bank,” Hillary tweeted shortly after leaking the rumor. On October 31, 2016 (one week before the election), Campaign adviser Jake Sullivan stated: “Computer scientists have uncovered a covert server linking the Trump Organization to a Russian-based bank.” Sullivan added that he could “only assume federal authorities will now explore this direct connection between Trump and Russia as part of their existing probe into Russia’s meddling in our elections.”

Pfizer Tells Federal Judge that Pfizer Owns the Federal Government and Is thereby Immune to Normal Contract Law

Pfizer affirms that its agreement with Washington under “Other Transaction Authority” permits Pfizer to violate clinical trial regulations and federal laws protecting the public.

In other words, Pfizer has legal authority to commit fraud that kills people.

https://www.theepochtimes.com/pfizer-moves-to-dismiss-lawsuit-from-covid-19-vaccine-trial-citing-prototype-agreement_4481422.html?utm_source=News&utm_campaign=breaking-2022-05-21-3&utm_medium=email&est=J4n7QBMzmWxieTnsLOyKQXEL3OF7C7crKa6Qp96y81KULsk%2FUlv67A%3D%3D

As I have explained on many occasions, the US government is privatized. It is run by private interests whose representatives are found on the SEC, FDA, EPA, Federal Reserve, and all other regulatory agencies. As George Stigler made clear 60 years ago, the US regulatory agencies are captured by the industries they are supposed to regulate. The power of private interests also comes from the fact that private interests are the financers of political campaigns. Every elected official—House, Senate, President—and every state and local official knows he/she is in office because of the campaign contributions. This means that elected officials are responsible to their donors, not to the voters. The power of private interests was reinforced by the US Supreme Court decision that gave essentially unlimited ability to corporations to purchase government to serve their interests.

This is the real picture of today’s United States. The US is a country that can only serve private interests, never the public interest, itself a hard interest to define in a country in which Identity Politics is pervasive.

In America today, the public interest is “whose interest?” Multiculturialism can never result in a united interest. Today there are an array of interests trying to have it all while suppressing other interests. The feminists, once a powerful force, are losing to the “transgendered.” Even former feminist heros are now cancelled and deplatformed. White Americans, branded “aversive racists,” have lost out to blacks who have been granted legal preferences, thus violating the 14th Amendment to the US Constitution which was passed for the explicit purpose of establishing the equal protection of law. Formerly sanrosact heterosexuals now answer to formerly criminal homosexuals and are required to take “sensitivity training” to learn deference to homosexuals, preferred minorities, and transgendered claimants. Today the discrimination is against the white heterosexual male who is labeled a “domestic terrorist” unless he joins in the persecution of white heterosexual males and did not vote for Donald Trump. The US Democrat Party has defined its rival, the Republican Party, as the party of white supremacists, the party of “Trump deplorables.”

The society that exists is the US today is so split that it no longer constitutes a country. There is NO UNIFYING BELIEF OR PRINCIPLE. The United States has become a Tower of Babel, and the Americans are unaware of who brought this affliction upon them and the societal collapse that it is bringing.

NATO partner Colombia to train Ukrainian military on demining

A team of Colombian soldiers will travel to Europe to train their Ukrainian counterparts on de-mining techniques, the South American country’s defense minister said on Monday….

Colombia’s nearly 60 years of internal conflict between the armed forces, leftist rebels, right-wing paramilitaries and drug cartels has made it one of the world’s most-mined countries….

The experts from Colombia, which is a NATO partner, were invited to give the training by the United States, Colombian defense minister Diego Molano said in a statement.

“This training will be given by 11 military engineers who will go to a NATO member country which is a neighbor of Ukraine,” Molano said.

Biden admin released FBI-flagged suspected terrorist into US for weeks

It took U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) two weeks to arrest an FBI-flagged suspected terrorist who had been released into the U.S. by Border Patrol after crossing the U.S.-Mexico border, Fox News reported on Monday.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Terrorist Screening Center flagged Isnardo Garcia-Amado, 35, as a suspected terrorist on April 21, just three days after the man was released into the U.S. by Border Patrol agents near Yuma, Arizona.

ICE wasn’t authorized to arrest the suspected terrorist until May 4. Officials ultimately apprehended Garcia-Amado on May 6 in Pinellas County, Florida. He was held in Pinellas County jail and transferred to an ICE facility on May 9, Fox reported.

A spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security told Fox News that the agency “promptly detained” the suspected terrorist “after receiving additional … information.”

“In this instance, after receiving additional law enforcement information, ICE, in coordination with federal and local law enforcement, promptly detained this individual, who was already under supervision via a Global Positioning System (GPS) monitoring device,” the spokesperson said. “Noncitizens encountered in the United States without authorization undergo multi-layered screening and vetting. Our immigration enforcement priorities are clear: DHS is focused on those who pose a threat to our national security, public safety, and border security. When we receive additional derogatory information from our law enforcement partners, DHS and our federal partners take swift action to apprehend those individuals.”

After the Garcia-Amado was discovered in his state, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis demanded that President Joe Biden’s administration explain why the suspected terrorist was released into the U.S. at all.”

“The State of Florida has consistently addressed the Biden Administration for information on illegal alien resettlement in Florida, which the federal government has declined to provide,” DeSantis said. “We demand to know why DHS released a suspected terrorist into the United States and allowed him to live freely in Florida for weeks. How many more known or suspected terrorists has the Biden administration allowed into our country?”

US Mulls Sanctioning Countries That are Buying Russian Oil

The move would be a major escalation in the US sanctions campaign

As the US is looking for more ways to inflict damage on Russia’s economy, the Biden administration is reportedly considering targeting buyers of Russian oil, which would be a significant escalation in the US sanctions campaign.

The New York Times reported last week that the proposed measures include a price cap and so-called secondary sanctions that would block Russian oil buyers from doing business with companies based in the US and in other nations aligned with Washington. The US has similar sanctions imposed on Iranian oil sales.

Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm wouldn’t rule out the idea of secondary sanctions when asked by reporters about the measures last week. “I know that that’s certainly not off the table,” she said. “The administration is going to be making decisions in that vein … I’m not telegraphing, that’s their call.”

US officials told the Times that while they are looking to hurt Russian oil sales, they don’t want to reduce the commodity from the global market too suddenly as it would cause a surge in oil prices. But the US is pushing countries to implement phased bans of Russian oil.

The EU is currently working on a plan to end imports of Russian oil by the end of 2022, but it is being delayed due to strong objections from Hungary. The US would likely wait until the EU agrees on the way to wean itself off Russian oil before rolling out the secondary sanctions.

If implemented, the secondary sanctions could target China and put the US on a collision course with India, which has continued the purchase of Russian oil despite the pressure from Washington. So far, the US, Britain, Canada, and Australia have all banned the import of Russian oil.

FBI agent testifies Alfa Bank allegation seemed unsubstantiated by early October 2016

Special Counsel John Durham last year charged former Clinton campaign attorney Michael Sussmann with lying to the FBI, to which he has pled not guilty.

FBI agent Curtis Heide testified Tuesday in the Michael Sussmann trial that by early October 2016, less than two weeks after the investigation was opened, the Alfa Bank allegations appeared unsubstantiated.

Heide, who is currently under investigation by Special Counsel John Durham, opened the investigation on September 23, 2016, with then-FBI agent Allison Sands regarding the allegation that there was a secret Trump Organization communications channel to Moscow via Russia's Alfa Bank.

According to an October 3, 2016, email from Heide, who was part of the Chicago FBI branch at the time, he wanted to interview the anonymous source who provided the information for the allegation. The email said that this was because the investigation was reaching a logical conclusion as the allegations appeared to be unsubstantiated.

Heide testified on Tuesday that he had questions regarding the allegations in the white paper on the data the FBI received and wanted to interview the person who compiled it to make sure nothing was missed. His supervisor at the time, Dan Werzbicki, agreed that they needed to interview the source.

FBI agent Ryan Gaynor replied to Werzbicki's email that the bureau's headquarters were discussing the possibility of an interview and the Chicago branch should focus on analyzing the internet data logs. Heide said he never learned who the source of the data was nor the identity of the white paper author.

Ex-FBI Principal Deputy General Counsel Trisha Anderson also testified Tuesday that she doesn't recall knowing that Sussmann represented a client when he pushed information to the bureau in 2016 alleging Trump-Russia collusion.

The testimony is critical to the case against Sussmann, a 2016 Clinton campaign lawyer, who was charged by Durham last year with lying to the FBI.

While a partner in the Perkins Coie law firm, Sussmann allegedly told then-FBI General Counsel James Baker that he was not working on behalf of any client while providing him with the since-debunked allegation regarding Alfa Bank.

However, Durham has marshaled evidence in support of the government's allegation that Sussmann was working at the time on behalf of two clients, the Clinton campaign and then-Neustar tech firm executive Rodney Joffe.

Anderson was a deputy who worked under Baker when Sussmann provided the data for the Alfa Bank allegation in late September 2016, weeks before Election Day.

During initial questioning by the prosecution, Anderson testified that prior to the Alfa Bank allegation she had interacted with Sussmann regarding litigation against the FBI that he was part of on behalf of a client.

Sussmann has pled not guilty to the charge. If convicted, he faces up to five years in prison.

Western Leaders are creating Food Shortages and manipulating you into blaming Russia

The United States and the European Union (EU) have been ineffective in their trade war against Russia and are currently working on their sixth package of sanctions. These sanctions have caused price hikes and food shortages, severely harming innocent people all around the world.

As the West struggles to constrain Russia’s military mission in Ukraine, European gas importers have already surrendered to Russia. European gas importers have quietly violated the EU’s own sanctions and have begun buying gas in Rubles, capitulating to Russia’s new rules. As the West’s economic warfare scheme backfires, EU leaders are beginning to crack even further.

German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock is now blaming Russia for causing “brutal hunger” even though her country was the one that blocked Russia from trading agricultural products in the first place. Baerbock made these absurd comments at a recent G7 meeting with Canada, France, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States.

Germany’s Foreign Minister blames Russia for causing “brutal hunger” that was actually caused by EU sanctions

As part of their original sanctions, Germany voted to block Russia from exporting food and grain, but now Germans and other Europeans are seeing skyrocketing prices and food shortages as a result. Instead of recognizing the failure of these sanctions, Germany’s Foreign Minister, Annalena Baerbock, has decided to blame Russia for causing a “brutal hunger” that has swept Europe.

German leaders are now blaming Russia’s military campaign for the shortages their countries now face. “Russia made a conscious decision to turn the war against Ukraine into a ‘grain war,” the German minister claimed at the G7 meeting. “We must not be naïve about this,” she insisted. “It’s not collateral damage, it’s a perfectly deliberate instrument in a hybrid war that is currently being waged.”

Baerbock is actually describing a hybrid economic, banking and food war that the West is waging against, not only Russia, but also their own citizens and the people of the world.

After all, it was Baerbock’s country that voted for wartime economic sanctions against Russia. These sanctions sought to prevent Russia from selling grain exports in euros and dollars. Now Baerbock is blaming Russia for weaponizing the situation into a “grain war” — absurdly claiming that Russia is responsible for food shortages throughout Europe. Does Baerbock have no memory that her own country blocked Russia from exporting grain, fertilizer and farming outputs?

Biden Disinfo Board Advisor Michael Chertoff Tied to Soros-Funded Aspen Institute

Disinformation Governance Board advisor Michael Chertoff has a demonstrated anti-conservative bias as well as ties to the leftist, George Soros-funded Aspen Institute.

The Orwellian Disinformation Governance Board (DGB) may be paused, but it is not totally gone. Chertoff is going to advise and assess the DGB for the Biden administration during this apparently transitional phase for the board, after former head Nina Jankowicz resigned last week.

Michael Chertoff is an Aspen Cybersecurity Group ex-officio member, according to the Aspen Institute website. Chertoff was also Department of Homeland Security secretary under former President George W. Bush and is the co-founder of The Chertoff Group. His newest role is as an advisor for the DGB.

Chertoff formerly pushed disinformation, claiming the Hunter Biden laptop scandal was a Russian operation, adding that “human intelligence sources” (i.e. Russian spies) probably obtained Hunter’s emails, according to the Washington Free Beacon. The scandal involved questionable financial dealings of Hunter Biden. Yet, The New York Times reported that the relevant emails were authentic back in March.

The leftist Aspen Institute received funding from globalist Microsoft founder Bill Gates and globalist liberal billionaire George Soros. MRC Business previously reported that the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation donated $101,854,593 to the Aspen Institute between 2003 and 2020. Meanwhile, two organizations within Soros’s Open Society Network — Foundation to Promote Open Society ($2,594,780) and the Open Society Institute ($445,000) — poured at least $3,039,780 into the Aspen Institute during the same period.

In 2016, Chertoff signed a letter along with dozens of other national security officials that explicitly opposed then-candidate Donald Trump’s bid for the presidency. Chertoff, while working for the George W. Bush administration, was also co-author for the Patriot Act, arguably a harsh crackdown on civil liberties. Chertoff has other ties that indicate an inclination to violate civil liberties.

Gates’s Microsoft also partners with biased NewsGuard to fight “disinformation.” The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation just committed $125 million partly to potentially invasive “[s]trong disease surveillance systems” supposedly to fight COVID-19.

MRC Business previously found that DGB co-chair Jennifer Daskal also has at least three connections to George Soros. Daskal served as an Open Society Institute fellow “working on issues related to privacy and law enforcement access to data across borders.” Daskal also worked as senior counterterrorism counsel for the anti-Semitic Human Rights Watch, which received at least $32,106,746 from Soros between 2000 and 2014. Daskal was also founding editor of the Just Security blog, which received $675,000 from Open Society Foundations between 2017 and 2019.
