Former Senior NIAID Official Pleads Guilty to Charges Connected to Concealing Federal Records During COVID-19 Pandemic
Greenbelt, Maryland – A former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) employee pled guilty in federal court, today, to a conspiracy charge stemming from a scheme to evade Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests and the Federal Records Act in connection with communications about coronavirus research grants.
David M. Morens, 78, of Chester, Maryland, pled guilty to conspiracy to commit offenses and to defraud the United States. Morens served as a senior advisor in NIAID’s Office of the Director from 2006 through 2022.
Kelly O. Hayes, U.S. Attorney for the District of Maryland, announced the guilty plea with Special Agent in Charge Jimmy Paul, FBI Baltimore Field Office, and Special Agent in Charge Marcus L. Sykes, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General (HHS-OIG).
According to his guilty plea, Morens, Co-Conspirator 1, Co-Conspirator 2, and others conspired during the COVID-19 pandemic to defraud the United States after NIH terminated Co-Conspirator 1’s grant. NIH terminated the grant, Understanding the Risk of Bat Coronavirus Emergence, based on allegations that COVID-19 emerged from the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) in Wuhan, China. NIAID awarded the grant to Company 1 and Co-Conspirator 1, who made a subaward to the WIV.
Following the termination, Morens and Co-Conspirator 2 pledged to help Co-Conspirator 1 restore the termination of the bat coronavirus grant and counter the narrative that COVID-19 leaked from a lab. In anticipation that their communications would be requested through FOIA Requests, Morens, Co-Conspirator 1, and Co-Conspirator 2 agreed in writing to intentionally hide their communications from public view by corresponding using Morens’s personal Gmail account, rather than his official NIH email account.

Senior Director Of Operations Charged With Insider Trading
David Pidgeon Executed Trades While in Possession of Material, Non-Public Information He Received Through His Employment
United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Jamie McDonald, and Special Agent in Charge of the Miami Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (“FBI”), Brett Skiles, announced today the unsealing of an Indictment charging DAVID PIDGEON with securities fraud stemming from insider trading based on misappropriated financial information belonging to his employer. PIDGEON was arrested today and will be presented in Boston, Massachusetts. The case has been assigned to U.S. District Judge Jennifer H. Reardon.
“As alleged in the Indictment, less than one year ago, a senior official at a public company engaged in insider trading,” said U.S. Attorney Jamie McDonald. “When corporate insiders misuse confidential information for personal gain, they undermine the integrity of our financial system. Today’s charges—and in particular the speed with which we were able to bring them—reflect our commitment to holding accountable anyone who chooses to engage in this kind of misconduct. We will continue to work closely with our partners at the FBI and the SEC to safeguard our markets and pursue those who violate the law.”
“Today’s charges underscore a fundamental principle: when individuals exploit confidential corporate information for personal gain, they undermine the integrity of our financial markets,” said FBI Special Agent in Charge Brett Skiles. “The FBI is committed to protecting investors, maintaining a free and fair market, and holding accountable anyone who attempts to profit through deception and unlawful insider trading. We will continue to work closely with our partners to ensure that those who violate these principles are brought to justice.”
As alleged in the Indictment unsealed today in federal court:(1)
In or about October 2025, PIDGEON, then Senior Director of Operations at Treace Medical Concepts, Inc. (“TMCI”), obtained material nonpublic information about TMCI’s lower sales volume and difficulty meeting its financial projections. Days before TMCI’s third quarter earnings announcement, PIDGEON sold shares of other issuers and used the proceeds to purchase short-term put options in TMCI stock. PIDGEON’s trades occurred during a company-wide blackout period when TMCI employees were prohibited from trading in TMCI securities, and in violation of TMCI’s policies, which prohibited employees from trading in TMCI options at any time. On November 6, 2025, following market close, TMCI announced its third quarter financial results, which included a net loss of $16.3 million and downwardly adjusted 2025 revenue projections. The following day, TMCI’s stock price dropped approximately 28%. That same day, Pidgeon sold all of his TMCI options.

17 Iranians Charged With Conducting Massive Cyber Theft Campaign On Behalf Of The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps And Other Iranian Entities
United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Jamie McDonald, Assistant Attorney General for National Security, John A. Eisenberg, and Assistant Director in Charge of the New York Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (“FBI”), James C. Barnacle, Jr., announced today the unsealing of a 14-count Superseding (“S2”) Indictment charging 17 members of the Mabna Institute, an Iran-based company that, since at least 2013, conducted a coordinated campaign of cyber intrusions into computer systems to 144 U.S.-based universities, 178 foreign universities, at least 42 U.S.-based private sector companies, at least 11 foreign private sector companies, at least five U.S. federal and state government agencies, and at least two non-governmental organizations (“NGOs”). Through the defendants’ activities, the Mabna Institute stole more than 31 terabytes of academic data and intellectual property from universities, and the email accounts of employees at private sector companies, government agencies, and non-governmental organizations. The defendants conducted many of these intrusions on behalf of the Islamic Republic of Iran’s (“Iran”) Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (“IRGC”), one of several entities within the government of Iran responsible for gathering intelligence, as well as other Iranian government and university clients. Nine of the 17 defendants charged in the S2 Indictment were previously charged in a 7-count Indictment announced in March 2018. The case is assigned to U.S. District Judge Jesse M. Furman.
“Today’s charges show that neither sophistication nor geographic boundaries will deter us from protecting the national security of our country from those who target the United States from abroad,” said U.S. Attorney Jamie McDonald. “These charges, which include eight additional defendants, reveal the broader network allegedly behind a sweeping, state-sponsored campaign to steal research and intellectual property from American universities, businesses, and government institutions. Cyber operations have become a central instrument of national power, and attacks on American and allied institutions carry direct consequences for our security and economic strength. This Office and our partners will continue to protect American innovation and pursue accountability for the individuals behind these attacks.”
“The superseding indictment alleges that, at the behest of entities including the IRGC, these defendants hacked into universities and other research institutions worldwide, including the United States, stealing at least 31 terabytes of information and intellectual property of untold value,” said Assistant Attorney General for National Security John A. Eisenberg. “The National Security Division is committed to protecting the United States from such predators and will pursue those who perpetrate such crimes for as long as it takes to bring them to justice.”
“Coordinated cyber intrusions like those allegedly carried out by the 17 members of the Mabna Institute represent a serious threat to our national security,” said FBI Assistant Director in Charge James C. Barnacle, Jr. “Their campaign stole vast amounts of intellectual property and sensitive information, reinforcing the FBI's commitment to confront this activity head-on. Backed by the IRGC, this operation reflects a broader, organized effort to target U.S. institutions and global partners. No matter where these actors operate or how they attempt to hide, the FBI will persist in its efforts to disrupt this criminal activity.”

Rubio Announces Sanctions Against International Criminal Court President & Top Lawyer
Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced Tuesday new sanctions against International Criminal Court President Tomoko Akane and Senior Trial Lawyer Abdoulaye Seye as tensions flare between the court and the Trump administration.
“These individuals have directly engaged in efforts by the ICC to investigate, arrest, detain, or prosecute officials whose government has not consented to ICC jurisdiction,” his statement said.
The ICC, he added, has attempted to “assert authority over” over U.S. citizens and nationals of other nations that have not consented to the Rome Statute that set up the court.
The United States is not a party to the ICC.
“Our whole of government campaign to dismantle the threat posed by the ICC to national sovereignty will be sweeping and we expect more countries to join our campaign by ending their funding and participation in this politicized and unaccountable court,” Rubio said, suggesting that “additional measures” may be taken against the Hague, Netherlands-based body.
As Jack Phillips reports for The Epoch Times, the sanctions against Akane and Seye were issued under a Trump executive order last year authorizing sanctions against the court, according to Rubio.
In July, Rubio said that the Trump administration would seek to dismantle the ICC by using visa revocations, sanctions, the targeting of individuals, and diplomatic pressure on countries to withdraw from the body.
“The American people never agreed to any of this, and they never will,” Rubio said last month.
“Read the words of our Declaration of Independence. We fought a revolution against a foreign power, transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offenses. Independence is our birthright. We will never let foreign bureaucrats take that away from us.”
The court, which was established in 2002 to prosecute war crimes and crimes against humanity under the Rome Statute, has been adopted by more than 120 countries. Countries that do not recognize the court’s authority include the United States, China, Russia, Israel, India, Saudi Arabia, and more.
However, the ICC has argued that the Rome Statute gives the court power to prosecute war crimes committed on the territory of member states by nationals of non-member states.

We are deep into the leverage phase now, and the Treasury market under your entire portfolio is the fuse.
The Fed spent 15 years trying to make markets safer. It built a $2.4 trillion time bomb instead.
Hedge funds now hold $2.4 trillion of US Treasurys, up from $600 billion a decade ago, levered as much as 100 to 1. Every time the Fed backstops the market to kill risk, it invites more borrowing. That trade has already detonated twice, in 2020 and again in 2025.
Here is the loop. A rescue kills risk, cheap risk breeds leverage, the leverage breaks, and the next rescue prints even more money. The leftover QE money is what lit the last inflation. We are deep into the leverage phase now, and the Treasury market under your entire portfolio is the fuse.
The U.S. will have to pay off Treasury debt this year, two thirds of it T-bills that it borrowed last. Until next August, 1/3 of the marketable Treasury debt will have to be paid. The volume of this debt is $10.5 trillion. The curve did not shift uniformly.
Over the past year, we saw a 0.43 point decline in 3-month bills, increase of 0.40 points in 2-year notes and a 30-year bond hit a yield of 5.27% on July 31, which last happened in 2007. In terms of bills, this curve is cheaper than a year ago. In terms of coupons, this curve is far dearer.
At the 2.9% coupon, $2.9 trillion of notes and bonds gets replaced at a 4.3% interest rate, and the $510 billion of 7-year notes of 2019 and 2020, of which a 1.10% coupon was issued, gets replaced at a 4.47% interest rate. This increases the interest payment on the maturing stack by $52 billion a year, only $12 billion of it from bills. This is manifesting itself in what Treasury actually pays. The rate was 3.35% in January, 3.44% in July, and has increased every month. Total federal interest is approximately $1,247 billion a year, or 3.8% of GDP.
Your bonds are supposed to be the airbag in a crash. The whole world is deflating it at the same time.
Of the 32 swap markets Bloomberg tracks, 2/3 are now priced for rate hikes. Traders see about 400bps of tightening across the 7 biggest markets over the next year, led by Korea at more than 100. Even the US sits mid-pack.
When every central bank tightens at once, bonds fall alongside stocks instead of cushioning them. Korean government debt is already down 9% this year, Japan down 4%. That is 60/40 breaking in real time, and it leaves cash as the only piece of the portfolio still paying you to wait.

NOTE: All of the Royal families located in Europe, Asia and South America eventually inter-married to
make them all related by marriage. This was done to strengthen their royal bloodlines and to eliminate
wars between the royal classes. Then they pooled their wealth to create a new business enterprise,
which was the financing of currency for various world governments with the underlying motive to
control and influence those governments through the debt that was owed to them. To increase the debt
owed to them, they helped to instigate wars and conflicts between various countries and people.
A philosophical riff eventually developed between the European royal family factions regarding their
beliefs in an Almighty God and their purpose and duties toward mankind. This riff split the royal
families into two factions: the European royalty and the Chinese Royal Family. These are just names.
The European royal family conceals their power and intervention behind the Rothschild name, a group
which included most of the Nordic, Eastern European families, some Central and South American
countries and the Vatican. The Sabbatean Jews follow the ancient religion of Babylon and practice an
anti-traditional philosophy, which is highly pagan and which explains their attraction and connection to
the Vatican. This faction believes that the concept of an Almighty God is an historic prevarication
premised upon folk legend and/or prophets of the time and that their only duty was to the royal family,
the elite class, the accumulation of greater wealth and their continued domination over governments
and the ignorant, unwashed masses defined as their slaves.
The European faction finances the Freemasons, the Mossad and an elite army of mercenaries concealed
within their rank and file known as the Illuminati. The Freemasons are charged with the responsibility
of driving the slaves, the Mossad are used as bodyguards and intelligence gatherers, and together the
Illuminati are responsible for eliminating or terminating obstacles and problems with severe prejudice,
affecting the royal and elite families!
