David Hogg was sneaked into a Judiciary Committee hearing and had to be escorted out after demonstrating disruptive behavior. Congressman Jordan asked some lying woman who is the Democrat head of that committee and she said she did not know who brought David Hogg into the meeting against Committee established rules.
The Dems are really disgusting in their disrespect for order in the House of Represenatives.
I do not know who that woman (Ms. Lofgren) was but it is sad that she is willing to make herself look grossly inept in order to cover her obvious repeated lying.

FBI Whistleblower LEAKS Bureau’s ‘Domestic Terrorism Symbols Guide’ on ‘Militia Violent Extremists’ Citing Ashli Babbitt as MVE Martyr
August 2, 2022
Leaked document is labelled as “Unclassified/Law Enforcement Sensitive” that is for “FBI Internal Use Only.”
Under the “Symbols” category of the document, “2A” is listed with the following explanation: “MVEs justify their existence with the Second Amendment, due to the mention of a ‘well regulated Militia,’ as well as the right to bear arms.”
“Revolutionary War imagery” such as the “Gadsden Flag” and the “Betsy Ross Flag” are cited in the document under “Commonly Referenced Historical Imagery or Quotes.”
[WASHINGTON, D.C. – Aug. 2, 2022] Project Veritas released a newly leaked document today provided by an FBI whistleblower, which shows how the Bureau classifies American citizens it deems to be potential “Militia Violent Extremists” [MVEs].
In the document, the FBI cites symbols, images, phrases, events, and individuals that agents should look out for when identifying alleged domestic terrorists.

The “Unclassified/Law Enforcement Sensitive” document says it is for “FBI Internal Use Only.”
Of note, under the “Symbols” section, is a prominent citation of the Second Amendment, where it explains that “MVEs justify their existence with the Second Amendment, due to the mention of a ‘well regulated Militia,’ as well as the right to bear arms.”
Right below that, under the “Commonly Referenced Historical Imagery and Quotes” section, Revolutionary War images such as the Gadsden Flag and the Betsy Ross Flag are listed. Each flag displayed in the document comes with a brief description of what it means.
Under the “Common Phrases and References” section of the leaked document, Ashli Babbitt is cited as a person that MVEs consider to be a Martyr.
The same document also refers to Ruby Ridge, Waco, and even Timothy McVeigh, tying in traditional American ideas and symbols with radical and/or violent events in the past.

Senator Grassley and Senator Johnson vs Biden DOJ, FBI ~ UncoverDC by Tracy Beanz

Chuck Grassley has been sending lots of letters to the DOJ. Any reporting about these letters has been limited to surface-level discussion about their contents; whistleblowers have come forward from within the FBI. They have shared information that top-level officials have politicized the decision-making process while deciding when to launch investigations into high-profile political targets. Of course, you haven’t seen any of this in “mainstream” media, outside of Catherine Herridge for CBS. The reason for this is simple; if anyone dared to pull back even one layer on this onion, they would realize that there is something much, much bigger at play here.
Lucky for you, I am a professional onion peeler and am all too happy to take on the task.
This story is about more than a few random whistleblowers stepping forward to allege political corruption at the DOJ while using the names of those accused. This story began more than two years ago, as Senators Grassley and Johnson took on the daunting task of actually investigating Hunter Biden’s ties to Burisma, how that looped into Ukrainian corruption, and how Biden was involved.
Remember, this began as the sham impeachment trial of President Donald Trump was ongoing. The impeachment was launched because people in the Washington establishment have so much to lose should their Ukraine slush fund end. They couldn’t risk the truth about Ukrainian involvement in Spygate and the 2016 election coming out. Dirty Democrats, NGOs, and Republicans alike wanted nothing more than to taint the Biden/Ukraine story as the ramblings of a President guilty of pay-to-play. They figured it would grant them the ability to cast out all information that could potentially be released in the amount of time people cared. If the Ukraine cow stops producing milk, the soulless and corrupt order ceases to be fed. If the numerous dirty dealings perpetrated in Ukraine by government officials, NGOs, and private citizens came to bear, they’d run out of jail cells to house them all in.
If the world found out, say, that the United States was using Ukraine to run secret dirty bio-weapons labs, or if they found out that George Soros had most of his major operations there, or that the children of politicians were laundering money through energy companies to do the bidding of China, or that Ukraine was an arm for part of the “Russiagate” scandal that destroyed two years of a Presidency and split the country in two, or, or, or… Well, you could see why that may pose a bit of an issue. However, Grassley and Johnson wanted to know what was happening with Hunter in Ukraine, so they launched an investigation to find out.
And boy, did they find the motherlode.
To keep this article somewhat surface-level and easy to digest, I will only say a few words about their investigation. You can read this report to see the sordid details for yourself. (Also, note that I personally interviewed Andrii Telezhenko for a piece about Blue Star Strategies published here) But, essentially, their months-long investigation uncovered the Biden family and Democrat corruption better than any other “official” investigation has, and when the democrats on the committee realized that two untouched and trusted Senators were running right to “friendly” media to get said information into the press before the election, they needed to take action.
And take action they did. The plan was really simple.
- Use the media to fabricate stories about anyone with credible information as the targets of “Russian Disinformation” campaigns. Make sure to quote anonymous intelligence officials to have the stories seem more credible.
- Have the Speaker of the House reach out to the FBI, expressing her grave concern at the recent reports in the press (with a classified attachment) asking for a “defensive counterintelligence briefing” for all members of the House and Senate regarding “foreign efforts to interfere in the 2020 election”
- Have minority members on the Grassley Committee request said briefing for their respective committees responsible for the Hunter Biden investigation.
- Have the FBI give the briefing.
- Use the briefing (and mischaracterize it) to write more fake stories in the press that the entire Hunter Biden story was a product of Russian disinformation.
Plan complete.
That is exactly what happened. Never mind that the Grassley/Johnson committee wasn’t using seedy dossiers from paid foreign FBI informants to gather its intelligence; instead, using documents from the Obama Administration and other government organizations, along with a powerful Democrat lobbying firm (one time a government subpoena was used for what was actually intended.) Pish posh. It was Russian Disinformation, damn it. And now, United States Senators were affected. The horror.
Here is a timeline, and again, this is very surface level, so I don’t lose all of you in minutiae that would make your heads spin.
July 13, 2020: Pelosi sends a letter to the FBI asking for the defensive briefing after Politico and The Washington Post published stories about Giuliani, Grassley, and Johnson being the targets of a Russian disinformation campaign involving Hunter Biden, Burisma, and Joe Biden. The letter contains a classified attachment, which was unavailable to Grassley and Johnson at the time, although the press reported on some of the content. The reports cite Andrii Derkach as the agent of Russia. Derkach was a member of the Ukrainian parliament and denies working for Russia. Giuliani relied on information from Derkach; however, the Committee did not.
July 16, 2020: Gary Peters and Ron Wyden, both ranking members of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs and the Senate Committee on Finance, respectively, send a letter to Johnson and Grassley requesting a briefing from the FBI, citing the Washington Post article as some of their reasoning.
July 28, 2020: Johnson and Grassley write their own letter denouncing the Democrat efforts to taint their investigation as Russian disinformation. In it, they say, in part:
“We also find it interesting that your letter to us was soon followed by a letter from Senate Minority Leader Schumer and Speaker of the House Pelosi, asking the FBI for a briefing on the same matters. Although we were not provided a copy of that letter and its classified attachment, news reports regarding the alleged classified portion suggest that it continues to falsely accuse us of having received information from foreign nationals about former Vice President Joe Biden, including audio tapes. Not only is that an apparent classified leak, but that allegation is false, and you know it because we told you it was false right after those reports were published.”
August 6, 2020: FBI gives the committee a briefing as requested by the Democrat members. In it, no specific information is given on how the committee may be targets of Russian disinformation.
August 8, 2020: Johnson publishes a lengthy, passionate, and specific “open letter” describing in detail the reasons for the committee investigation, what his committee had found in the past in regards to actual foreign interference in our elections, and the story of Ukraine. It also contains an addendum that calls out and responds to the reason for the August 6 briefing, a targeted campaign by members of government and the media to taint the investigation’s results into Hunter and Joe Biden and their involvement with Burisma. I highly recommend you read this letter in its entirety.
September 23, 2020: The Grassley/Johnson Committee releases its first report entitled “Hunter Biden, Burisma, and Corruption: The Impact on U.S. Government Policy and Related Concerns.”
October 14, 2020: The NY Post publishes the Hunter Biden laptop story. As a result, social media censors the story completely. Legacy media attacks it as “Russian disinformation” and sets the internet ablaze. Numerous media and other accounts are banned from social media for reporting on the story.
October 19, 2020: Fifty current and former “intelligence community” officials sign an open letter to the public stating their belief that the Biden laptop story is Russian disinformation. This letter is used as a tool by the government moving forward to censor the American public in their discourse on social media and craft a narrative about the dangers of “misinformation.”
November 18, 2020: The committee releases a supplemental report to the original, which contains more detail and information. (Read these. You are doing yourself a disservice not to.)
July 20, 2021: Johnson sends a letter to Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz, asking him to investigate the August 6, 2020 briefing and the lead-up to it. In the letter, he reminds Horowitz of how the DOJ used briefings to spy on the Trump team.
March 28, 2022: Grassley gives a prepared floor speech, combatting in part the “Russian disinformation” campaign perpetrated on the investigation to cast doubt on the results. He also uses floor time to detail the investigation’s results.
That brings us right up to where the whistleblowers started talking to Grassley and Johnson in May of 2022. They have been actively investigating and confronting this for years. They were well aware that there was a wide-ranging and deeply embedded plan to taint any and all information uncovered about Hunter and Burisma, along with Joe Biden’s role in it all. And, to no one’s surprise, it encompassed senior members of the DOJ.
The first letters written by Grassley regarding the whistleblower information came on May 31, 2022. The whistleblower alleged partisan action by Timothy Thibault, a man serving as the Assistant Special Agent in Charge at the Washington Field Office. Grassley writes in his letter that Thibault has partisan social media posts, something you aren’t supposed to do in a position such as his. But what else is Thibault responsible for? Well, he served in a “highly sensitive role that includes threshold decision-making over which Federal public corruption matters are opened for investigation.” Ya don’t say!! I wonder what he may have been responsible for doing or not doing when it came to the Biden crime family. I wonder if he could potentially have delivered a defensive briefing to the committee regarding the potential that Russia was targeting sitting Senators. Additionally, this guy traveled to the same seminar as Bruce and Nellie Ohr in February of 2016 while Nellie was funneling fake news into Fusion GPS. Interesting. Do you think any of the following information Grassley was seeking ever came?
https://i0.wp.com/uncoverdc.com/wp-c...96%2C326&ssl=1
Grassley also fired off another letter to DOJ IG Michael Horowitz demanding yet another investigation into this transgression. In his statement, he encouraged other whistleblowers to march right up and feel safe sharing information about the misdeeds of our DOJ. I suspect that he already had a few more in the pipeline ready to go, and that statement was to provide cover.
With all of this background, let’s fast-forward to this month. On July 25, Senator Grassley fired off yet another letter to Christopher Wray and Merrick Garland. In it, he references the letter from May and gets right to the heart of the matter. The second paragraph states the following:
“The information provided to my office involves concerns about the FBI’s receipt and use of derogatory information relating to Hunter Biden, and the FBI’s false portrayal of acquired evidence as disinformation. The volume and consistency of these allegations substantiate their credibility and necessitate this letter.”
Imagine my shock! I am not shocked, and now neither are you. You have the background no one else has bothered to cover. The letter goes on to name FBI Supervisory Intelligence Analyst Brian Auten. Whistleblowers allege that Auten opened an assessment that the FBI Headquarters used to “improperly discredit” negative Hunter Biden information as disinformation, which in turn caused investigative activity to cease. This next part is just too good, so I will let you read it yourselves. Go on, take a moment.
https://i0.wp.com/uncoverdc.com/wp-c...91%2C737&ssl=1
And just to put some icing on this pretty little cake, guess who allegedly made the decision to close an avenue of investigation into Hunter Biden? ASAC Thibault. The first named official from the May letter. Grassley goes on to demand a litany of information from Wray and Garland, most (if not all) of which will be ignored. We have one more step before I tie all of this into a nice little bow for you.
One day later, Senator Johnson fired off his own letter to Christopher Wray, Merrick Garland, Michael Horowitz, and Avril Haines, the Director of National Intelligence. Page two of his letter is below for your entertainment.
What is happening right now is the result of a two-year quest to ferret out who was behind the plot to squelch any real expose of the criminal actions of Joe and Hunter Biden. Carefully crafted and patiently constructed, these letters are strategic. These are puzzle pieces that have been placed together over a period of years, as the country has caught up to the fact that “misinformation” is a term the left and establishment use to dismiss their corruption.
Separately, it may be the tipping point at an FBI and DOJ where “woke” ideology and politically driven criminal prosecutions have gotten to such a point that they try the souls of honest men. We haven’t gotten “whistleblowers” like this before, especially in a climate of retaliation as we have right now. It may be the early beginning of the end of the nightmare of corruption at the DOJ. It may be the early beginning of the end of the stranglehold on the truth about the widespread corruption cash cow in Ukraine, as our world hangs on the brink of war.
It is the quest of two men determined to hold accountable anyone who tarnished them and who actually care about corruption.
If you took the time to read Senator Johnson’s open letter, you know what this corrupt machine did to him. You know the loop of the intelligence community now operating as our media. You know the tar and feather of his reputation. You know how the powers that be manipulated the public psyche before an election they knew he would lose anyway in order to keep their crimes a secret.
Ron Johnson and Chuck Grassley know every last bit of the truth about the man in the oval office, his corrupt family, and the corrupt administration that served before President Trump. They know everything about the fake impeachment and why.
Ukraine is the political cesspool that will bring it all down. It’s why all the desperation. It’s why all the shoddy reporting. It’s why all the hastily put together nonsense that everyone can see right through. If you need a good refresher on how Ukraine even ties back to 2016, listen to this podcast where I sum it all up. Ukraine is everything. If they lose control of the Ukraine narrative, they are going to lose it all. Look no further than the absolutely crazy way they are handling Russia to see I am right. Russia has it all regarding Ukraine information, and they are currently using their time at UN meetings to dangle it out like a carrot on a stick.
I often chastise elected officials for sending letters. The FBI never responds. The DOJ never responds. There isn’t ever any accountability. The only thing that makes me think differently about this particular topic is that these men have never stopped. Not while in the minority, not while being destroyed in the public square, not through any obstacle put before them. They are out for revenge. They are out for justice. They are out for what is right.
I think they are going to get it.

The Vortex — Bring Back the Inquisition
6:32 video runtime
Aug 2, 2022
Church Militant
TRANSCRIPT
800 years ago, in 1232, Pope Gregory IX established an ecclesiastical tribunal whose chief aim was the rooting out of heresy. Bring back the Inquisition but with one caveat: Most, virtually all, of the current hierarchy is not allowed to serve on it. Indeed, certain hierarchs would be the objects of the tribunal, not the inquisitors.
The point of the inquisitions (plural, because there were different ones, and the Protestants had their own after the revolt in the 16th century) was to not just bring a heretic back from his ways, but failing that, to prevent him spreading his errors to others. Seen in that light, the Inquisition was largely about justice. Innocent souls have a right to the truth and a right to be protected from falsehoods.
That was the driving force behind the Church's Inquisitions. That is why we need them back again, removed from any taint of the hierarchy, because it is precisely from certain hierarchs that the innocent need to be protected. Viewed again from the perspective of justice, we can't think of anything other than an Inquisition to mete it out properly. The complicit, cowardly bishops, as well as the crooked and corrupt ones, will not confront those who bring a scourge to the people of God.
Innocent souls have a right to the truth and a right to be protected from falsehoods.
What they permit, what they advance, what they will not confront destroys faith in the minds and hearts of those with weaker faith. It is insufficient for those who have stronger faith (or naive faith) to sit back idly and throw around high-sounding platitudes like, "The Church has been here before; we'll get through this as well." That is only true corporately speaking. It is an abomination to say that in disregard for the individual souls damaged and wrecked by all this scandal.
And please, do not say to such as these, "Don't leave Jesus for Judas." That is true, of course; but you should thank God on your hands and knees that you have been given the gift of faith to such a degree to understand that. Others have not. They need you to take up arms and defend them, not go all "academic" on them. And precisely to the point, if you really believe that, then why aren't you doing your part to confront Judas, to defend them in the open?
Many in the Church these days are little else than selfish enablers, barely registering above the low bar of "professional Catholic," as Pope Benedict declared. You have your faith, you say, and nothing shall disturb it. You have your faith, but where are your actions in defending the innocent?
You can promote your own private little endeavors in the friendly confines of your local Catholic bubble, but where the rubber hits the road, where a soul's mettle is tested, where you are tried by fire and forged in divine justice is your willingness to lose everything you have, everything you have built to announce the fullness of the truth in defense of those who have a weaker faith. But for most Catholics today who count themselves as faithful, that is a bridge too far.
It's impolite; it's rude; it's "unnecessary." Leave us, they say, in our comfortable Catholic existence, a world we have crafted with a modicum of sacrifice, but, of course, always on our terms. To criticize a bishop openly in harsh-but-truthful terms, that's too crass. Tut-tut. Speak in charity, they say, failing to see that defending those of weak faith and in pained distress over the scandals of the Church is charity — charity in action. It is the very definition of faith and good works.
Many in the Church these days are little else than selfish enablers.
Are we to think for a moment that God Himself does not want the evil confronted, called out, exposed for the sake of the souls being lost because of it? Have you not heard what the Holy Spirit Himself inspired the Apostle to command the Ephesians: "Try to learn what is pleasing to the Lord. Take no part in the fruitless works of darkness, rather, expose them"? How does the Devil seduce a believer, one with faith? He does not tempt him so much in the ways he tempts the worldly, through the flesh. It is, rather, through the mind; through pride. He doesn't wipe away his faith or even so much diminish it, per se. Rather, he distorts it, making it fruitless.
With the hierarchy, many of whom do not accept the Faith, don't believe in the Deposit of Faith; he leads them to Hell by assuaging their consciences through substituting worship of the second commandment over the first. But for those who do believe, how best to destroy them in the fires of Gehenna? By having them bow down in all self-righteousness, bow down to the first commandment in neglect of the second. I have faith; those others should respond likewise. Thus, they condemn themselves out of their own mouths.
And when John the Baptist came to them preaching repentance and love of their neighbor, the well-heeled and self-righteous took offense. Both commandments were too much. No one attains eternal life by looking the other way in the face of evil to the neglect of souls. Those who do, Catholics who, in the secret of their hearts, count themselves as superior because they perform various works, need to go and learn the meaning of the words "How can you say you love God Whom you don't see, when you do not love your neighbor whom you do see?"
You cannot avoid the almost always uncomfortable conflict with evil and ever hope to see God's face. You must be a lover of truth, not a self-deceived lover of self.

Remember how the Biden Administration and his corporate media allies scolded everyone last week for using the regular definition of “recession” and swore that the “real” definition was much more nuanced, and since employment was so strong we were obviously in a fake recession, and things are really quite awesome? Remember that?
Bloomberg ran a story yesterday headlined, “Amazon Shrinks Staff by 100,000, Joining Netflix and Google in Hiring Slowdown.”
Haha, “shrinks staff,” these people kill me. You’re not fired. Just shrunk!
And “hiring slowdown!” Hahahaha! When a democrat is infesting the White House, you can fire ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND employees and the good little media doggies will roll over, beg for a treat, and call it a “hiring slowdown.” Fired slowly.
Calling a 100K layoff a “hiring slowdown” is like saying a rocket that exploded in midair “experienced an acceleration reduction.” My eyeballs rolled so hard it peeled part of my scalp off.
Just within the last few months, Bloomberg has also reported double-digit layoffs for lots of major companies: Carvana (-12%), Coinbase (-18%), Compass (-10%), Gemini Trust (-10%), GoPuff (-10%), Microsoft (-1%), Niantic (-8%), Peloton (-20% of corporate staff), Redfin (-8%), Robinhood (-9%), Rivian (-5%), StitchFix (-15%), Tesla (-10%), Unity Software (-4%). Companies that Bloomberg has reported having announced hiring freezes or reductions this year include: Apple, Lyft, Meta, Netflix, SalesForce, Spotify, Twitter, and Wayfair.
So, it’s just going great! Great employment numbers.
Amazon’s reductions are a little worrisome, in that the reason for the layoffs is shrinking inventories due to increasing supply-chain problems that Amazon apparently doesn’t expect to resolve anytime soon. And Amazon should know. It’s not critical, not yet, as the online reseller still has 1.5 million worldwide employees and remains the largest big-tech employer. But the 100K layoff figures are just for the first quarter of this year, so it’s not clear how many additional employees have been terminated in the most recent second quarter. Either way, it’s sure not going the right direction.
But it’s not a recession. Be positive!

New documentary explains how tyrants use fear as a weapon to control the masses
‘If I can keep you in a state of fear,' executive director Doug Barry explained, 'we can get you to do things. We can get you to move in certain ways. Essentially, we can load you onto a boxcar.’

(LifeSiteNews) — A unique new video seeks to examine the psychological, spiritual, and even biological means by which dictators, tyrants, or other rulers throughout history have gained or expanded their power over societies, often leading to violent despotism and even genocide.
“Doomed To Repeat It” was directed by Catholic media personality, actor, and apologist Doug Barry. The founder of RADIX, who is best known for his one-man performance of the Passion of Christ, told LifeSiteNews the purpose behind the film was to raise awareness regarding “the number one” method “tyrannical, power-hungry individuals use to gain power, increase their power, and oppress people, [and that] is fear.”
And there is even a biological foundation for why persistent fear is so effective for controlling populations.
