🚨1/ TOP BARRACK SLEIGHT OF HAND: Bypassing the Senate to Prevent Kurds from fixing Trump's disaster.
Friday, State admitted Tom Barrack’s Syria mandate expired under 22 U.S.C. § 2651a(j)(3). Today, Trump "reappointed" him as a Presidential Envoy to Syria AND Iraq.
For those who apparently were unaware, the Smoot Halley Tariff Act was considered a principal trigger of the world economic collapse that we call the Great Depression.
Honolulu police dept is firing officers who refuse to be vaccinated. One was fired who had 24 years on the force was told to turn in his badge and gun. Local news reports there are 18 officers who may be terminated.
Donald Trump's somewhat childish posts showing Barack Obama being arrested tells me that the review of the Epstein files hit a lot of evidence that linked him to the trafficking. He wasn't POTUS then and there is no
Pope Leo has reportedly escalated his growing feud with Trump, instructing U.S. bishops to take a stronger public stand against the president’s hardline immigration policies.

My dad was an AP photo journalist. What I noticed from the video was the set up. As the panicked Oval press staff shooed the press out, one photographer was able to be the last out and, on the fly, snapped this historic shot. Credit @andyharnik
U.S. President Donald Trump stands by as attendees help a guest after he collapsed during during an event on lowering drug prices in the Oval Office at the White House on November 06, 2025 in Washington, DC. (Photo by @andyharnik /@GettyImages)
I think it is possible that many of these masked ICE irregulars are not actually Federal LE employees and are essentially white supremacist vigilantes hired and paid off the books.
RT There's an E-6B Mercury off the east coast near DC. I looked because I would expect them to pop up if he tests positive. It's a message to the small group of adversaries with SLBMs and ICBMs.
Trump whose business claim to fame is six bankruptcies hands piece of paper to a guy running our money supply who instantly sees that Trump doesn't know what he's talking about.
For the record, I started warning TЯump was Russian spy in 2016. In early 2017 I found evidence of how he was getting his orders from the FSB that was in plain view if anyone wanted to look. Every TЯump @ODNI head after Dan Coats should be in custody along with Nunes & Pompeo.
NBC News reports that U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth unilaterally halted a weapons shipment to Ukraine, despite military analysis showing it wouldn’t compromise U.S. readiness.
The move blindsided Congress, the State Department, Kyiv, and European allies. Some weapons, including Patriot interceptors and air-to-air missiles, were already loaded for delivery in Poland.
It’s the third time Hegseth has paused aid without prior coordination.

Evidence is overwhelming Trump was part of Epstein's child sex trafficking conspiracy. @SDNYnews should charge him and move to hold him pending trial under 18 U.S.C. § 1591. There's no statute of limitations.
Johnson is a closeted gay man who has been living a lie. Trump knows he can destroy him in a minute. Putin does it to Trump over Epstein and Trump does it to Johnson over his sexual identity. That's why forcing Johnson out frees him from Trump's extortion and ends the spell.
Inside sources reportedly say Donald Trump has been heard privately joking about just how easily he believes he’s able to puppeteer House Speaker Mike Johnson.

That not even a single general or admiral attendee chose to applaud Hegseth is the single most encouraging sign the Republic will survive since
January 20, 2025, at noon.
1. The press has again dropped the ball on holding Trump accountable. What we need to know is where was Trump during the time after he landed at Dulles Friday night? Who was with him? Who witnessed it? What came is a reset. Pro-Kremlin stooges appeared in his campaign.
So Trump's plane left Dulles last night and flew 25 miles to Reagan. Who would do that? Why is the MSM not reporting this? Is there a press pool assigned to Trump? Who are they?
On Trump's parade, I'm a former hotel manager including a time in sales. I ran some room reservation requests for 13 -15 for cheap rooms that would not be available in a period of high occupancy. I can say with a reasonable degree of certainty, nobody is coming to DC.
1. It's hard to overstate the damage @NBCNews and @MSNBC are doing by not adjusting their prediction that should now be D217-218 with two NBC GOP calls going to Dems today. By reporting GOP took the House they're sewing the seeds of more attacks on our system.
When Pete Hegseth wore Russian flag colors to dine with President Zelinsky, it was the international signal that the Pentagon has fallen to our mortal enemy. Throwing the free press out was not a bug, but merely a feature of the fascist seizure of the White House
1. When the the liens start hitting Trump assets and he's forced to sit for debtor exams the truth will emerge that the NY case has exposed, not just the instances of fraud in the allegations raised therein, but that his entire "empire" is simply a grift. I seriously doubt there
With Tesla sales plummeting, SpaceX losing deals left and right, and Trump abandoning him, Elon is now advocating for tariff-free trade and the free movement of the workforce between the US and the EU.
He knows he bet on the wrong horse.
The unpunished treachery the Reagan team engaged in against President Carter over our Iran embassy hostages during the 1980 campaign opened the flood gates of corruption that has led to all successive GOP White Houses operating outside the law.
If @SecretService does nothing about Trump's violation of federal law making a threats against the POTUS @DHSgov head should fire the director of Secret Service and refer the mattter to the DOJ for charges. Because Trump is out on bail, he should likely be held pending trial.
1. What I think is coming: An indictment that should charge Trump, Flynn, Giuliani, Perry, MTG, Jordan, Clark, Gaetz, Byrne and Russian intel officer[s] with seditious conspiracy, insurrection and/or levying war treason requiring pre-trial confinement.
Current explosion of attacks on the DOJ are consistent with my reporting that a big indictment is about to drop and may involve members of Congress and/or Koch funding network that began funding the the conspiracy that led to the coup in April 2020. Rolling out the big guns.
New poll today has Trump at 35% approval. That's the breakthrough point for me. Now we should see a steady slide towards election day with GOP seeing the worst day in the party's history. Ten @SenateGOP seats could flip. And the court pick will just accelerate the collapse.
1. Something about this photo bothered me, beyond the obvious. At first it was the Exit sign that looks like it's above a window. And old wood look was not Mar-a-Logo gaudy gilded gauche. Then I thought, why is Johnson there? It occupied my mind for a bit and here's my analysis.
He’s a developer. He had to know. Likely he’s exposed every staffer. I did asbestos litigation for a short time. Terrible way to die. Somebody should go to court and shut him down by enjoining his contractor.
The White House has an asbestos exposure problem now thanks to Trump’s clearly reckless demolition. Make Mesothelioma Great Again? open.substack.com/pub/blueam…
1. Why would Chuck Grassley do something as outrageous as release a secret FBI report without clearing it? I think it's the same reason Tuberville is harming the military command structure. Both figure in my analysis as likely targets of the special counsel investigation.
Donald Trump wants the evidence to be public ASAP and I think judge Chutkin may accommodate him by setting the trial for December or January. Set the motions hearings in 60 days and get the trial going ASAP so we can see the evidence. But spoiler alert:
1. Trying to imagine what would be so urgent as to cause Putin to rush to the Kremlin on Sunday night. A quick survey of Russian press and I found one report that confirmed something that I had thought might happen now that the aid money and weapons are certain to come in days.
“Putin arrived at the Kremlin in pouring rain on Sunday at 11:10 p.m.”
Usually it is a sign that something important is unfolding.
Perhaps he realized that he is losing & will lose in Ukraine??
Why on earth did the GOP think she would be someone they could mess with and not face consequences? They could lose safe red House and Senate seats not to mention the down-ballot state and local elections. Elections are all about turnout. They will turn out for her. Bet on it.
Taylor Swift is getting hundreds of thousands of her fans fired up to vote, and those kids aren't buying into the Republican bullshit.
She fucking ROCKS! 🤘💙🔥 #Swifties
White House Counsel and Pentagon General Counsel are both likely to be disbarred unless they can demonstrate they tried to prevent the Posse Comitatus Act violation. It’s a felony. Resignations might save them.
1. @MSNBC@maddow drop of the material exposing JD Vance's involvement in the far-right billionaires' plot to overthrow the US Constitution could be a debate game changer. It's hard to imagine the panic that would ensue in Vance's debate prep.
1. When I read that McCarthy suddenly said that he's not sure Trump is the right candidate, my first thought was he knows something others do not. As a member of the gang of eight he gets briefed on things like when members of Congress are subjects of intercepts.
1. Not enough is being reported about the news that the charges against Trump may include a 18 USC 242 charge of Deprivation of Rights Under Color of Law. It's a big one. The guidelines show that this charge could be the one that puts Trump in prison. Possibly for life.
I've had the time to process the bizarre Laura Loomer story and think there is a 50% + likelihood that she was a diversion to put everyone off the scent. The information that got Trump to wipe out the IC was likely from the Kremlin visitor earlier this week: Kirill Dmitriev.
1. As the GOP and Trump become more unhinged and erratic I think I know why. They are likely learning what I discovered that Trump can be put in mental and medical assessment that can isolate him for up to 30 days. He likely suffers from dementia and stimulant addiction.
I think we are reaching denouement. Jack Smith dropping Barr's coverup in this filing is priceless especially because he used the UPI press release because Barr likely scrubbed DOJ files. Fun Fact: a material witness to the Barr cover- up was Robert Mueller.
1. The media doesn't seem to comprehend that we are on Trump bankruptcy watch. If judge Engoron enters a final judgment too large for Trump to bond to stay collection actions pending appeal, after his self-inflicted disaster in in the E Jean Carroll case, he's likely to file.
1. My theory has been that the Trump coup had to hold the Senate as part of their master plan. All they needed was to win one of the two Georgia US Senate seats in the Jan 5th runoffs to pull it off. Miraculously, the GOP lost both Georgia seats on Jan 5 the final count didn't
Nothing in the Rules says only @SpeakerJohnson can swear in a new member as long as there is a Speaker appointed. @hakeemjeffries should swear Adelita Grijalva whose proof of election victory was transmitted. Do it during the next pro forma session on the steps. @RepMcGovern
One of the most disturbing things disclosed in the Trump indictment is the fact that the Secret Service was warned of a threat against the VP and still allowed him to walk into a the trap with a football and no QRF in the area. How that happened needs to be fully disclosed.
1. Now that GOP House moved its absurd Biden impeachment to committee we need to let the GOP donors know that when we take the House and hold the Senate we're going to impeach Thomas, Alito and Roberts for corruption after we get all the donor's financial records of their acts
1. I want to be very clear, I believe that the Cannon nomination and confirmation prove Trump knew he lost and were part of his exit planning along with both espionage & coup conspiracies so Trump wanted to be sure the Ft Pierce judge would be someone who owed him a favor.
Everything is pointing to Trump and Hegseth working as Russian intelligence assets. They're not even trying to hide it knowing that the cowed US press will report their gaslighting as fact.
Interesting.
German Intelligence have just arrested two suspected Russia spies, they had US Sec Defence Hegseth's private phone number in their mobiles. (Der Speigel)
1. In the battle for #Bakhmut, Ukraine destroyed the final Russian group trapped in a pocket south of #Ivanivske. With no hope of relief and reportedly cut off from communications with the Russian command, the encircled Russian force south of Ivanivske was totally destroyed.
Elon is acting like he’s holding the better hand. Could he know of a hack that delivered the swing states? If Trump was involved he was a private citizen with no immunity.
Via @MSNBC - Jack Smith spotted at DC federal court. MSNBC presumed he attended some grand jury session. I can think of another reason he might be there. Perhaps to get leave to use something I've been expecting to surface in the Jan 6 investigation that would require a
1. Why are we hearing about Trump's disclosure of secrets to Anthony Pratt? Because Trump may have graduated to the bigtime and is looking at a charge that carries life or worse. Up to now, Trump has only been charged under 18 USC 793(e) for unauthorized retention.
1. @SpeakerMcCarthy made a big mistake. The video is not his and he imposed his ownership over federal property and he can be charged for that. Second, by doing it outside the Congressional record McCarthy has voided his speech and debate immunity. People whose rights have been
1. Trump's deranged Megyan Kelly interview ranting about having right to do whatever he wants with top secrets may indicate something big is coming. I believe he's been trading secrets with foreign powers likely the IRGC to get out of his Suleimani Fatwa. IRGC is a terrorist org.
Docket watching. Two sealed dockets just popped up in DC. Based on their proximity to a filing dated June 14, I'd guess they were likely filed Wednesday or Thursday of last week. With Wapo article, that I think showed signs was cleared by main justice, this could be the big one.
1. Folks reporting Trump may sell real estate to pay or bond his judgments are missing what I think is a critical fact: Trump's properties are over-leveraged and lack the necessary equity. I saw it in 2016 when I looked at 40 Wall St and compared reality to his ethics filing.
1. When people act in a panic like we are seeing with certain @GOPHouse members calling for Biden's impeachment over a plea offered to Hunter Biden by a Trump appointee, I always try to understand, why now? IMO it's highly likely that Jack Smith has either called witnesses to
1. So as a 29 year Bankruptcy lawyer here is how it will go. People who are working will not be withholding their income tax, social security & medicare obligations. When they file in April 2021, they will owe thousands of dollars they haven't saved for. They'll be turned over
I was stumped why Trump would illegally fire Maurene Comey. First, she's protected by civil service rules as a career employee so Trump has likely not heard the last of her. Second, she was essentially gagged about what she knew about Trump's role in Epstein trafficking.
I have kept quiet about this because I don't like to engage in what might be considered stereotyping but the @nytimes is so far off the rails that it must be said. We need to consider that Carlos Slim is compromised
I've got a great idea for @SpeakerPelosi. Impeach @SecElaineChao. Just do it. Let Cocaine Mitch twist in the wind. If we do right his seat is toast. Make them look like Bonnie and Clyde. @RepJerryNadler
1. I'm likely the only attorney on Twitter who has actually gone through the analysis of when to charge a former POTUS with a prosecutor who had both the ability and the case to charge and all I will say is, when #45 announces, he will trigger one of the factors that
I looked at the law and I'm pretty sure the NJ fundraiser violated federal law. You can't collect big money as a candidate at a Super Pac fundraiser. $5,000 per per person limit. If I'm correct Trump has already violated the terms of his release. @FBIWFO
1. If my analysis of the coup end-game is accurate, then after Raphael Warnock defeated Loeffler and Ossoff defeated David Perdue in runoffs on Jan 5th, 2021, it became clear that there was no way to hold the White House simply by eliminating
Sauce for the goose. I think Jack Smith is close or has already obtained indictments on a kinetic conspiracy that should charge Perry, Jordan, Gaetz and others who can be arrested under the text of the Constitution. I think Gaetz knows and that's really what's driving him.
1. Trump recently stated that he can take documents and can show them to anyone he wants. That's a tell that he knows it was illegal to take them and that he has shared them with persons that would constitute crimes including acts of espionage.
Remember folks, Judge Sullivan can deny the motion, require a hearing and put the prosecutors on the stand under oath. I note that there is no declaration supporting the motion. This is buying time for some reason. Find the reason.
If judge Cannon is going to delay the SDFL trial Jack Smith should file a superseding indictment and make a case that Trump should face life that demands he be held in a secured facility until his trial. Trump is a threat to national security and can't be allowed to walk free.
I'm watching the GOP House and Senate Sedition caucus who are likely in Perry's phone records. They all thought that their communications were safe. The order disclosed today involving judge Howell's ruling that protected those communications has been reversed by DC Cir.
The DOJ may be making an inappropriate political decision to delay charging the members of Congress who conspired and joined the coup attempt. Trump is an agent of a foreign power directing the members of the GOP likely on direct orders from Putin. If Trump and his minion are
1. One the greatest acts of disinformation that the media even our trusted @MSNBC buy into is that there are no ethical laws that apply to SCOTUS. That is false. 28 USC 455 makes clear that justices are covered by the mandatory recusal law. What the law lacks is a mechanism
Michael Caputo is wound way too tight to endure what’s coming. Both he and Stone have likely engaged in espionage. There is no statute of limitations. He’s starting to realize life in a supermax is a real possibility. His corrupt acts at HHS should enhance his sentence.
Be still my heart.
New member of Jack Smith's DC team appears to be an area expert on the Mideast who lived in Turkey, Egypt and Sudan. Fun fact: Secret Service didn't deny Trump got money from terrorists in Istanbul in response to my FOIA.
Tim Parlatore just admitted he was called to the grand jury. He said he was "in the room." Witness attorneys don't go into a federal grand jury, only witnesses and the prosecutors go "in the room." So he had to quit because he's likely a material witness. What a dope to go on TV.
Fun Fact: The Wagner mercenary who was captured crossing the Rio Grande worked for an organization that ran a subsidiary that helped elect Donald Trump in 2016. Wagner's Internet Research Agency or IRA.
After Trump toured the jet, Air Force officials reviewed the aircraft and found that it was “very poorly maintained” and would require millions of dollars just to bring it up to satisfactory maintenance conditions washingtonpost.com/national-…
Call me stubborn but I still think Trump is owned by the Kremlin that has mountains of Kompromat on him and his close associates in Congress. Report tonight that Trump is calling on his Congressional cult to block aid to Ukraine. IMO Putin's going to help him. That was the price.
immunity and no statute of limitations. He must be going nuts. I'm seeing posts of videos that I've never seen before. One shows a large group of very young girls dressed in white with both Trump and Epstein looking at them like deranged child predators.
Trump just flew to Asheville NC. I think that's likely to visit Mark Meadows who is reported to live there. That might violate the terms of his release if he's on Jack Smith's witness list. @FBIWFO@DOJCrimDiv
I'm sure whatever brought Trump to Asheville involves money. Private fundraiser for Donnie perhaps? I'm surprised he didn't announce it so he could have his fans meet him at the airport to give his fragile ego a stroke. When Donnie doesn't go for easy attention then somethings up
Was @mattgaetz' removal of the Speaker that appears to have been directed by Donald Trump, part of the Hamas shaping operations to prepare the terrorist attacks on Israel? Remember, Trump is a Kremlin asset and that makes his stooges like Gaetz Kremlin assets too.
1. Unless the SCOTUS agrees with Trump that POTUS can harm justices with impunity, Trump's two federal trials will likely continue. If it is reasonably unlikely that the trials can be completed before the election then Jack Smith should consider the following:
1. @TTuberville took the oath on Jan 3 and the evidence is showing that less than 3 days later, on Jan 6 he had attempted to overthrow the Republic. My guess is he had already begun to conspire before he took the oath. If the evidence supports the charge Jack Smith should
The @AP needs to be ready to photograph and report on Trump's humiliating empty-street parade including interviews with seat-fillers and background actors and sweeping shots of the absent crowd. Make him look as humiliated as is humanly possible.
1. Trump's NSC aid Robert C. O'Brien's testimony may be the last puzzle piece. Any other witnesses may be targets. Specifically, the people who knew force or violence was contemplated & agreed to it because they were going to be placed in high-level positions in the dictatorship.
I won't give @Sen_JoeManchin any more oxygen. I'm spending my energy researching his and his family's finances to establish that he took a bribe from @LeaderMcConnell managed Koch network and then work to take them all down. JFK-"Don't get mad get even." @PressSec@DOJCrimDiv
1. If Comer, his committee members and/or staffers were in contact with accused fugitive spy Gal Luft, there's a possibility their communications have been subject to Title I FISA intercepts. Under the Gates Procedures the members of the Gang of Eight should be notified but the
