The FBI seizes records from Rudy Giuliani's Manhattan apartment and office.

Feebs are closing in. Rudy’s electronic devices have now been seized in a NYC raid on his Manhattan apartment (and a Park Avenue office location). Darn that Deep State down by the Four Seasons Lawn Center. The buried lede is that the warrant was blocked under the former guy, but Merrick Garland unblocked...

Donald J. Trump: Russian intelligence's 'confidential contact' for 40 years

It seems clear that Trump will continue to be a Russian asset, with the bonus of classified information transferred even beyond his presidency. A new book by Craig Unger features a former KGB spy, Yuri Shvets as a source. …Trump first appeared on the Russians’ radar in 1977 when he...

The weirdest Trump scandal: His Russian counter-intelligence investigation was secretly blocked

As Trump’s one term winds to a thankful close, one of the largest scandals remains seemingly forgotten and bizarrely unexplained.  There not only has never been a counter-intelligence investigation into Trump’s connections with Russia and Russia’s interference in the 2016 election — but we have learned that this is because that investigation was secretly thwarted...

Remember Trump's crime spree by the theft of information as tall as the Washington Memorial

There will be plenty of memorials to the Trump reign, but the most significant one will be the betrayal of democracy.

Trumpublican operatives infiltrated liberal groups to subvert campaigns since 2016

Trump's 'Other' racism will re-emerge because China Trade is more scorched earth to the bunker

In advance of more stalled China trade talks this week, impeachment-embattled Trump asked China to interfere in the 2020 election. The quid pro quo for China will now be as obvious as the Ukraine price of $250+ million for election “dirt”. x With the party over, Beijing needs to see...
