the FBI was ordered by Barack Obama not to arrest Hillary Clinton for espionage
And this is,
the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency John Ratcliffe,
the FBI was ordered by Barack Obama not to arrest Hillary Clinton for espionage in violation of — 18 U.S. Code § 793. Gathering, transmitting or los defense information. In fact, James Comey effectively served as Hillary Clinton’s personal attorney.
James Comey: “What I can assure the American people is that this investigation was done honestly, competently and independently. No outside influence of any kind was brought to bear.”
CIA John Ratcliffe: “Lisa Page confirmed to me under oath that the FBI was ordered by the Obama DOJ not to consider charging Hillary Clinton for gross negligence in the handling of classified information,"
Transcript excerpt of his interview with Page:
John Ratcliffe: Okay. So let me if I can, I know I'm testing your memory, but when you say advice you got from the Department, you're making it sound like it was the Department that told you: You're not going to charge gross negligence because we're the prosecutors and we're telling you we're not going to –
Ms. Page: That is Correct.

NICE!! — Hillary Clinton BTFO by DOT Secretary Sean Duffy!! 🔥
I know you’re lashing out because DOGE is uncovering your family’s obscene grifting via USAID, but I won’t let you lie and distort facts. The FAA administrator announced he resigned over a month before Trump took office, and the air traffic controllers were always exempt from Trump’s civil service buyouts.
The previous administration shamelessly used USDOT as a slush fund for the Green New Scam, throwing away money and resources on wasteful environmental and social justice projects rather than updating our nation’s antiquated air traffic control systems and other critical infrastructure.
I’m returning this department to its mission of safety by using innovative technology in transportation and infrastructure. Your team had its chance and failed. We’re moving on without you because the American people want us to make America’s transportation system great again. And yes, we’re bringing the 22-year-olds with us.

Before it was shuttered, USAID routed funds to Soros-aligned causes, terrorists and drag queens
Before the Trump administration closed USAID’s doors, the agency regularly routed funding to causes aligned with George Soros’ nonprofit empire, terrorists and drag queens.
The agency came under scrutiny from the new administration over failures to ensure transparency in its funding to organizations across the globe and concerns that the leadership was not responding to explicit policy directives from the State Department and the wider executive branch to align its programs with Trump policies and the U.S. national interest.
In recent days, the Trump administration identified USAID programs ranging from contraceptives for Afghanistan to LGBT diversity programs for European countries as clear evidence that foreign aid needed to be paused and reevaluated, a task that fell to the Rubio State Department.
The development agency for years also funneled money to several nonprofit groups that also received substantial backing from components of George Soros’ empire. Some previously came under scrutiny during the Obama administration for “democracy promotion” and judicial reform efforts in European countries that critics claimed promoted leftist politics.
For example, U.S. government spending records show that the East-West Management Institute, which is in part backed by Soros’ Open Society Foundations, received more than $260 million over the years in grants from USAID to, among other things, promote the rule of law in Georgia, strengthen civil society in Uganda, and advance Serbia’s accession talks with the European Union.
That same nonprofit group came under scrutiny during the Obama administration after Judicial Watch uncovered government records and communications showing that the East-West Management Institute’s “Justice for All” campaign in Albania received $9 million in funding from USAID.
The assistance concerned several GOP Senators, who sent a letter to the newly appointed Secretary of State Rex Tillerson in 2017, alleging the campaign funded by the U.S. government helped craft an Albanian judicial reform proposal that may “give the Prime Minister and left-of-center government full control over the judiciary.”
Those same Senators also raised concerns about a similar Soros-backed program in neighboring Macedonia where they said a local affiliate called Foundation Open Society-Macedonia received backing from USAID through the Open Society Foundations and pushed “a progressive agenda.”

Trump administration imposes sanctions on ICC over Israel probe
THE HAGUE, Netherlands (CN) — The White House announced sanctions Thursday on the International Criminal Court, the second time President Donald Trump has punished the United Nations court for conducting investigations he disagrees with.
Trump and Republicans in Congress had expressed anger after the court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.
The move will have wide-reaching consequences for The Hague-based court.
The previous Trump administration sanctioned Khan’s predecessor as well. In 2020, the White House slapped sanctions on Fatou Bensouda and another staff member for their involvement in an investigation into whether U.S. military personnel committed war crimes in Afghanistan.
President Joe Biden ended the sanctions shortly after coming into office in 2021.
Khan dropped the Afghanistan investigation over a lack of cooperation.
Many in The Hague had been preparing for such penalties. In June 2024, the U.S. House of Representatives passed legislation that would force any president to issue sanctions against the court, but the bill was blocked by Democrats in the Senate. A similar bill passed the House again in January.
“The court has been subjected to attacks seeking to undermine its legitimacy and ability to administer justice and realize international law and fundamental rights; coercive measures, threats, pressure and acts of sabotage,” ICC President Tomoko Akane said in her opening address to the court’s annual meeting in December.
“Sanctions are meant to coerce the court into not doing its job,” Alonso Gurmendi Dunkelberg, who focuses on international relations at University of Oxford, told Courthouse News Service at the time.

Hollywood got $ILLIONS in USAID. In 2022, the nonprofit arts sector generated $151.7 billion in direct spending by organizations and attendees and $29.1 billion in tax revenue.
Thursday, May 23, 2024
On May 14, Americans for the Arts’ President and CEO Nolen Bivens submitted written testimony supporting increased federal funding for the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH).
He made the case for funding each agency at no less than $211 million for Fiscal Year 2025, which represents just 0.006 % of last year’s federal budget. He also encouraged the Subcommittee to build a specific path to index funding for each of these two cultural agencies at $1 per capita. Each agency is currently funded at about 62 cents per capita.
In his testimony, Bivens asserted that the arts are a national asset, and that these agencies are vital for a thriving arts and culture sector which positively affects the American economy as a whole. Arts and culture drive our creative economy which is a primer to our country’s economic activity. Last March, the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis reported that arts and cultural economic activity accounted for 4.3 percent of gross domestic product (GDP), or $1.10 trillion, with over 5.2 million jobs. Additionally, America’s arts and culture exports increased the trade surplus from $15.5 billion to $21 billion. This data represents a new high-water mark that represents a larger percentage of GDP than the transportation, construction, and agriculture sectors. In 2022, the nonprofit arts sector generated $151.7 billion in direct spending by organizations and attendees and $29.1 billion in tax revenue.
The power of NEA and NEH funding was made clear with these statistics:
Every NEA grant dollar leverages at least $9 in private and other public funds, generating more than $500 million in matching support.
This leveraging power far surpasses the required non-federal match of at least 1:1 and illustrates why federal support for the arts is uniquely valuable.
42% of NEA-supported activities take place in high-poverty neighborhoods.
35% of NEA grants went to organizations that reach underserved populations, such as people with disabilities and individuals in institutions. The NEA also funds school- and community-based programs that have helped children and youth navigate a mental health crisis exacerbated by the pandemic.
Bivens also noted that both agencies offer healing programs for those who serve in our Armed Services, as well as for veterans reintegrating into civilian life. Across nine programs assessed from 2018-2020 by the National Humanities Alliance, 96% percent of respondents indicated that humanities materials helped them better understand their experiences. Seventy-nine percent of veteran respondents indicated that their program made them more likely to seek help if they needed it.
The NEA’s Creative Forces program supports military families, a collaboration with the Departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs, to serve the unique and special needs of military patients and Veterans diagnosed with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and psychological health conditions such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). In clinical settings, creative arts therapists provide art, music, dance/movement therapies, and therapeutic writing instruction for military patients and veterans. The NEA also provides community engagement services by partnering with nonprofit organizations to provide arts-based programming for military communities.
Bivens also referenced U.S. Surgeon General Vice Admiral Vivek Murthy’s recent remarks about how arts and culture are critical ways in which we connect and essential tools for rebuilding the social infrastructure to address the nation’s epidemic of isolation and loneliness and the mental health crisis that young people are facing. With the NEA’s leadership, more work is necessary through interagency partnerships to help solve this epidemic.
