As one of the few people who have engaged in conversation with the lead investigative unit around John Durham I have held a rather unique outlook on this question since August of 2020.
See if you can find him below:
A contingent of Republican senators traveled to Texas on Thursday for a tour of the border region to understand the scale of the problem currently facing Border Patrol. After a night and early day visit of the border region the GOP senators gathered to brief the press and answer questions.
Senator Ron Johnson (Wisconsin) was emphatic about the stunning statistics that are now evident. As Johnson shared during his portion of the briefing, under President Trump the border region was secured and together with agreements with Central American and Mexico the southern border wall was working well to stop illegal alien influx.
However, Joe Biden eliminated all of the agreements and policies that stabilized the border. Immediately after his installation as head of the executive branch the Biden policies opened a floodgate of illegal alien border crossers. As many as 6,000 border apprehensions in a single day in the Rio Grande Valley sector. Stunning statistics.
Border Patrol Union President Brandon Judd describes what it was like for GOP senators to visit the border crisis and how the Mexican cartel smugglers were laughing at the inept politicians who can do nothing to stop their activity. Quite a stunning interview:
[Bumped by Request /SD]
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is now getting ready to hire public companies, individual contractors outside government, to scour public data and social media in order to provide information for the new “domestic terror watch lists.” From the description it appears DHS is going to pay “big tech” (Google, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, SnapChat, Twitter, etc.), via contracts, to hire and organize internal monitoring teams to assist the government by sending information on citizens they deem “dangerous.”
Gee, what could possibly go wrong with this?…
NBC is reporting on these new developments as the U.S. intelligence apparatus is preparing to go live with the assembly of lists of Americans who “could be” potential threats to the government; and need to be watched.
However, even NBC is beginning to realize the consequences: “DHS planning to expand relationships with companies that scour public data for intelligence and to better harness the vast trove of data it already collects on Americans. The department is also contemplating changes to its terrorist watch listing process.”
Here’s the article:
WASHINGTON — The Department of Homeland Security, created after the 9/11 attacks to protect the country from international terrorism, is moving toward a sweeping set of policy changes aimed at detecting and stopping what intelligence officials say is now a top threat to the homeland: domestic violent extremism.
This is a specific example that needs to be drilled down quickly so that people with only a cursory interest in politics can understand how it impacts them. Biden’s $1400 stimulus checks are useless, literally wiped-out, when compared with the increase in gasoline prices already in place as part of the Biden energy policy.
Gas prices have already jumped $1/gal in most areas as a result of Biden killing the oil production energy sector. Factor in the increased transportation costs for goods and services, including the costs associated with deliveries of home meals, Uber rides, products delivered, airline charges; and the gas price increase hits the family checkbook far beyond the $1400 provided for stimulus.
Add to that charge and the increases in electricity prices, together with the increase in product costs that are based on petroleum (rubber, plastics, containers etc), and you can see how the increased cost of Biden’s ridiculous energy policy hits families even harder. But wait…. it gets worse…. If that were already not enough of a problem, Biden is now proposing a mileage tax on top of a gasoline tax increase that will hit the middle class much harder. [SEE Video at 01:30]
The middle-class commutes to work much more than all other sectors. Any increase in gas prices, gasoline taxes or mileage taxes hits the blue-collar worker at a disproportionate rate. A proposal to install a mileage tax does nothing but add another cost onto the American middle-class.
This is an issue of leftist policy, as the far-left now move to push their climate change agenda and simultaneously push federal infrastructure spending. Of course, in order to keep advancing their severe leftist agenda, the democrats have to pretend not to know things.
Many people are unaware the essential framework for the 2020 election fraud took place in only seven counties which were each heavily controlled by Democrat operatives. Clark County (NV), Pittsburgh and Philadelphia (PA), Wayne County (MI), Maricopa County (AZ), Madison (WI) and Fulton County, Georgia. These populous counties were all that was needed in states were the election was tightly manipulated by political operatives.
In Georgia’s Fulton County the chain of custody documents from “Drop Box” locations still have not been produced despite the Governor signing new legislation to combat voter fraud. In total there are over 404,000 ballots that were counted in the election without chain-of-custody certifications. The margin in GA was only 12,000 votes.
GEORGIA – Four months after the November 3, 2020 presidential election, state and county officials in Georgia have failed to produce chain of custody documents for an estimated 404,691 vote by mail absentee ballots deposited in drop boxes and subsequently delivered to county registrars for counting.
As of March 3, only 56 of Georgia’s 159 counties have provided ballot transfer form data to The Georgia Star News. The number of absentee by mail ballots delivered to registrars in those 56 counties total only 195,309, or 32.5 percent, of the estimated 600,000 absentee vote by mail ballots deposited in drop boxes and delivered to county registrars and counted in Georgia’s 2020 presidential election.
President Trump called-in to Laura Ingraham to express his overall view of the Joe Biden press fiasco that took place on Thursday afternoon. The president reacted to Bidens’ attempt to take credit for the COVID vaccine rollout as well as the Biden-created crisis at the southern U.S. border.
The Biden border crisis is a result of a leftist administration undoing the agreements made between President Trump and Mexico’s President Andrés Manuel Lopez-Obrador (aka AMLO). President Trump remarked on the acuity of the current White House occupant and drew a contrast between the way the media gives softball questions to their ideological compatriot. As President Trump notes: “everyone can see it.”
Interesting that Reuters would outline the walk-backs. Even more interesting that the details of the walk-backs seem to prove the DOJ never actually intended to win any of these cases, but rather wanted to advance a political narrative about extremists through their earlier statements.
The approach of building a political narrative through false accusations and over-charging in the DOJ is the essence of Lawfare. The government has endless taxpayer resources to fuel their political weaponization of the judiciary.
The process of the charges then becomes the punishment by design. The targets are drained financially, sometimes physically detained under false pretense, and then the DOJ walks backwards when the judges finally ask for proof.
The process is the punishment for political affiliation. The DOJ is fully weaponized. The majority of Americans can clearly see this taking place.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Prosecutors made some serious claims after the deadly U.S. Capitol attack, saying they had evidence rioters planned to kill elected officials, suggesting a Virginia man at the building received directives to gas lawmakers, and accusing another suspect of directing mayhem on Jan. 6 with encrypted messages.
But the Justice Department has since acknowledged in court hearings that some of its evidence concerning the riot – carried out by a mob of supporters of former President Donald Trump to try to overturn his election loss – is less damning than it initially indicated.

Republican Senators Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski voted with the Democrats in the senate to confirm Rachael Levine as Asst. Secretary of Health and Human services, despite the abhorrent job Levine did while Health Secretary for Pennsylvania during the COVID crisis.
Last month Senator Rand Paul questioned Levine during the confirmation hearing, and exposed the radical agenda behind the nominee.
Despite the terrible job in Pennsylvania, and despite the radical outlook toward gender reassignment for teens, the UniParty found a way to continue supporting the far-left.
(NPR) The Senate voted Wednesday to confirm Dr. Rachel Levine as assistant secretary for health in the Department of Health and Human Services. The vote is a history-making one: Levine is the first openly transgender federal official to be confirmed by the Senate.
The vote was 52-48 in favor of her confirmation.
Levine was previously Pennsylvania’s secretary of health, where she led the commonwealth’s COVID-19 response.
JoeBama Calls For Assault Weapon Ban, Universal Background Checks and Ban on High Capacity Magazines
“Assault weapons” politically defined as any firearm that can kill people. “High Capacity Magazines” defined as any weapon that can hold more than seven bullets. “Universal Background Checks” defined as a federal registry of who owns guns in the United States (you can imagine how that registry aligns with the newly proposed “domestic extremist” list). Below are Biden’s transcribed remarks:
(White House) – JOE BIDEN: “I don’t need to wait another minute, let alone an hour, to take commonsense steps that will save the lives in the future and to urge my colleagues in the House and Senate to act.
We can ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines in this country once again. I got that done when I was a senator. It passed. It was law for the longest time, and it brought down these mass killings. We should do it again.
