Exclusive: Oversight Project refers former FBI Director Wray to DOJ for criminal charges
The watchdog accused Wray of misleading Congress about the apparent cover-up of Chinese election interference and the FBI's anti-Catholic memo.
FBI Director Kash Patel announced earlier this month that the bureau located an intelligence report from August 2020 that detailed "alarming allegations" regarding an apparent Chinese communist plot to interfere in the presidential election for the benefit of then-candidate Joe Biden.
Such allegations, if brought to light at the time, would have vindicated the concerns about voter fraud and foreign election interference then expressed by President Donald Trump and former Attorney General Bill Barr, which were written off by election officials, Democrats, and the liberal media as "unfounded" and "preposterous."
Instead, elements of the intelligence community apparently covered up the alleged foreign election interference campaign.
"Former FBI leadership withheld the facts and misled the public on China's 2020 election interference," Patel stated on Thursday. "And they did so for political gain."
Patel noted in a separate message, "We're restoring trust — through transparency, not politics."

CCP Climate Lawfare Against U.S. Energy Exposed Before Senate Judiciary Committee
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is financially backing left-wing climate lawfare in the United States, and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach, and dark money expert Scott Walter revealed the shady details while testifying before a Senate subcommittee on Wednesday.
The hearing, titled “Enter the Dragon—China and the Left’s Lawfare Against American Energy Dominance,” was held by the Subcommittee on Federal Courts, Oversight, Agency Action and Federal Rights, dug deep into how China has funded the push for progressive courts and to weaken American energy production, following a bombshell State Armor report exposing Energy Foundation China’s (EFC) ties to the CCP.
Cruz, the chairman of the subcommittee, introduced the background of what he deemed “a systematic campaign against American energy”:
There is a coordinated assault by the radical left, backed and paid for by the Chinese Communist Party, to seize control of our courts, to weaponize litigation against U.S. energy producers, all in order to undermine American energy dominance. At stake is a lot more than an industry. Our energy sector is the engine of American prosperity, the lifeblood of our industrial power, our national security and our geopolitical leverage. If American energy is under attack, so is American security and American independence.
According to Cruz, this campaign is a “three-pronged” approach.
“First, foreign money from entities tied to the Chinese Communist Party flows into the United States to bankroll climate advocacy groups who litigate against American energy,” the senator said in his opening remarks. “Second, activist lawyers flood our courts with lawsuits designed not to win policy debates, but to bankrupt energy producers and to dismantle energy infrastructure through sheer attrition.”
“And third, the judiciary itself is being quietly captured and brainwashed as left-wing nonprofits host closed-door trainings that indoctrinate judges to adopt the ideological goals of the climate welfare machine,” he explained.
State Armor, an organization focused on the threat posed by the CCP, detailed how the EFC, while posing as a U.S. nonprofit operating in China, is “functionally a Chinese entity.”
EFC, controlled by CCP members who were involved with the Paris Accords while operating under the supervision of the regime’s security services, has funneled upwards of $12 million to “aggressive litigation outfits” that routinely file lawsuits trying to block pipelines, ban gas-powered vehicles, and bankrupt oil and gas companies on paper, Cruz said.
Such organizations include the Natural Resources Defense Council, the Rocky Mountain Institute, and the World Resources Institute.
Cruz continued, “Energy Foundation China’s goals may sound [like] benign support for Clean Coal, electric vehicle and global decarbonization, but that raises the obvious question: If this is truly about reducing emissions, why isn’t China investing that money and reducing its own pollution?”
“China is the number one polluter on planet Earth.”
The report also revealed that EFC has given grants to premier American universities, including Harvard; University of California, Berkeley; University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA); and the University of Maryland.
In addition, EFC “provided support” in 2023 for an event featuring California Governor Gavin Newsom (D)’s visit to China, and later hosted a forum called the “China-US Subnational Cooperation” in Nanjing with Chinese and American officials to trade insights on climate action.
In Kobach’s opening remarks, he concurred with President Donald Trump’s recent executive orders that highlighted the “growing challenge” that “environmental lawfare” poses for American industry as it “drives up energy costs.”
“It also weakens our national security and places us at a strategic disadvantage with respect to our adversaries in China,” the attorney general said.
While he noted that he has greater experience in litigation on climate issues over connections to the CCP itself, he argued that it is “evident that China’s asymmetric warfare against the United States extends to our nation’s courtrooms and state legislatures.”
“The CCP plainly has a strategy of driving the United States away from domestic energy sources and increasing U.S. dependence on sources that rely on a Chinese supply of solar panels, electric vehicle batteries, and other technologies.”

The lawsuits are frequently unsuccessful, but still result in significant consequences for Americans, Kobach said.
“This litigation, while sometimes based on valid legal claims, in most instances failed in the courtroom but nonetheless increased costs for consumers and taxpayers.”
Walter, who serves as president of investigative thinktank Capital Research Center, argued that “America’s enemies, especially Russia and China, are pleased when we hobble our energy sector.”

They want to be in a stronger economic position, whether selling Russia’s natural gas in Europe or selling China’s “green” technology in America. This fact shouldn’t be controversial. Hillary Clinton, presumably based on intelligence reports she saw as Secretary of State, famously said that “a lot of the money” supporting messages against fracking came from Russia. The New York Times has reported on the beliefs of leaders in countries like Romania and Lithuania that Russia and its state-owned Gazprom oil company have fueled anti-fracking activists in Europe.
The dark money expert and former special assistant to President George W. Bush for domestic policy went on to share just how deeply the CCP is invested in the green energy sector:
Even the Brookings Institution, in an article that applauds “Accelerating the clean energy revolution by working with China,” confesses, “There is no question that the world has become too dependent on China, especially in the raw ingredients of the clean energy economy.” Just Facts Daily observes that “China dominates the global supply chains for green energy components not merely because of cheap labor but because they have lax environmental standards that tolerate the pollution these products create. Thus, China supplies 78 percent of the world’s solar cells, 80 percent of the world’s lithium-ion battery chemicals, and 73 percent of the world’s finished battery cells.” Heavy subsidies by our federal government and others have helped produce these Chinese economic windfalls by distorting markets and artificially boosting consumption.
The author of Arabella: The Dark Money Network of Leftist Billionaires Transforming America, Walter gave the subcommittee several examples of such billionaires, some foreign and some domestic.
“… And many of these billionaires have the same last name: Foundation. Especially notable are the Hewlett Foundation and various Rockefeller philanthropies, but there are many more, including the Ford Foundation and the MacArthur Foundation,” he told the senators. “This helps to explain why a tally of only a few of the leading climate lawfare groups totals revenues of a half-billion dollars a year.”
Walter cited State Armor’s report, saying the EFC “regularly sends grants directly to CCP-controlled agencies in China, including the National Center for Climate Change Strategy, the Chinese Academy of Environmental Planning, and Chinese Academy of Sciences,” and it partners with Chinese governmental entities like the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Ecology and Environment, Tsinghua University, and the Tongzhou District People’s Government of Beijing.”
“On the other hand, it also sends money to flagship American universities like the University of California Berkeley, UCLA, and Harvard, and it supports studies praising mandatory electrification policies in Berkeley and Brookline, Massachusetts.”
The Climate Judiciary Project (CJP), a left-wing influence operation that disguises itself as a neutral educational venue for judges, runs programs for judges about climate change and lawsuits — and it is funded by the same groups that bankroll climate lawfare suits, Walter said.
These activist academics, tied to climate plaintiffs as advisers, amicus filers, or public supporters, shape CJP’s “educational materials” for judges.
Throughout the hearing, Ranking Member Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) continually dismissed the witnesses’ and Cruz’s points, calling it a “perfect display of projection.”
Michael Lucci, founder and CEO of State Armor, told Breitbart News ahead of the hearing that his group’s report highlights a grave national security risk:
Our report exposes how Energy Foundation China functions not as an independent nonprofit, but as a vehicle advancing the strategic interests of the Chinese Communist Party by funding U.S. green energy initiatives to shift American supply chains toward Beijing and undermine our energy security. Policymakers must act. That’s why we issued this report and why the Senate Judiciary Committee will convene a hearing to examine these findings and begin oversight. Americans deserve answers. Our national security is at stake.
Jason Isaac, CEO of the American Energy Institute, added that the CCP is “exploiting climate change to sabotage our economy and our energy security.”
“Left-wing groups like the Climate Judiciary Project are acting as useful idiots for adversaries who are steering us toward energy enslavement to Beijing. Exposing the Climate Judiciary Project isn’t just about protecting the integrity of our courts; it’s about protecting our sovereignty and national security.”

Iran Says It Will Preserve Nuclear Program ‘Under Any Circumstances’
The Islamic theocracy of Iran stated on Wednesday that it would work to preserve its illicit nuclear program “under any circumstances,” denying that the American airstrikes on key uranium enrichment facilities had marked an end to its nuclear ambitions.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei declared in an interview with the Qatari network Al Jazeera, according to the Iranian propaganda outlet PressTV, that Iran was “determined to preserve” its right to “enjoy nuclear energy … under any circumstances.” PressTV also cited officials from the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) declaring that Tehran would “expand” its nuclear development, rather than contain it, in response to United Nations condemnation and military action by Israel and America.
Iran’s nuclear program sustained significant damage – both American officials and the United Nations nuclear oversight body affirmed this week – after President Donald Trump ordered airstrikes against the uranium enrichment facilities at Fordow, Isfahan, and Natanz on Saturday. President Trump declared the sites had been “completely and totally obliterated” in a “spectacular military success by American troops in support of Israeli operations to contain the threat of an Iranian attack.
Iran has for years engaged in nuclear energy development while calling for the destruction of the state of Israel and promoting chants of “death to America” and “death to Israel.” President Trump attempted to engage in talks with the Iranian regime throughout the year in pursuit of an agreement to contain the Iran nuclear threat, sending a delegation to five separate negotiations mediated by the nation of Oman. The talks resulted in no agreements as Iranian diplomats insisted that they would not accept any limits to the country’s uranium enrichment. American officials countered that no nation on earth is enriching uranium at Iran’s pace without having a nuclear weapons program – and that no known civilian use for such a large stockpile exists.
The U.N.’s International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) corroborated American accusations of Iran failing to abide by international law on June 12, passing a resolution condemning the country for violating its commitment to the international Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). Hours later, Israel began “Operation Rising Lion,” targeting some of Iran’s highest-ranking military officials and its military facilities to limit its capacity to fire back. Iran responded by targeting Israel’s population centers and killing at least two dozen civilians.
President Trump announced late on Monday that the nations had agreed to ceasefire. After a shaky first few hours, the ceasefire has, as of press time, remained in vigor. Iran refused to even acknowledge that it had agreed to a ceasefire, then threw a parade on Wednesday to declare “victory” against Israel and America.
In this context, Foreign Ministry spokesman Baghaei affirmed that Iran would continue to enrich uranium.
“Iran’s right to peaceful nuclear energy remains intact. Iran has every right under the NPT, under Article IV of the NPT, to enjoy nuclear energy for peaceful purposes, and Iran is determined to preserve that right under any circumstances,” Baghaei declared.
Similarly, PressTV cited AEOI spokesman Behrouz Kamalvandi stating that “the country’s nuclear program will continue to expand” despite the attacks.
The head of the IAEA, Rafael Grossi, said in an interview on Thursday that his agency does not believe much remains of that nuclear program following the American strikes.
“I think that ‘annihilated’ is too much,” Grossi told Radio France International (RFI), “but it has suffered enormous damages.”
“What I can say, and in this I think everyone agrees, is that very considerable damages have been produced.”
Grossi predicted that, “with its reduced capacity, it will be much more difficult for Iran to continue at the same pace as before” to enrich uranium. While Iran has blocked IAEA inspectors from assessing the damaged sites, Grossi said that, based on satellite photos of the damage, the facility at Fordow appears to no longer be operable.

“Obviously we cannot evaluate this and nobody can say what is the grade of damage, but we know that, given the potency of these artifacts [the bombs] and the technical characteristics of a centrifuge,” he concluded, “these centrifuges are no longer operational because they are quite precise machines. There must be important physical damage.”
The “supreme leader” of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, delivered a nationwide “victory” speech on Thursday marking the end of the conflict with Israel and America, contrary to the evidence of significant destruction in his country.
“I feel it is necessary to extend several congratulations to the great Iranian nation,” Khamenei declared, according to Iran’s Tasnim News Agency. “We thank God for aiding our armed forces, who managed to breach their advanced multilayered defense systems and flatten large parts of their military and urban centers with powerful missile and weapons strikes,” he said.
“Here, too, the Islamic Republic emerged victorious, delivering a harsh blow to the US, specifically targeting the Al Udeid base, one of its key regional bases, and inflicting damage,” he claimed
