Brandon Gill (R-TX), who used the opportunity to obliterate the Biden Justice Department for their years-long campaign of political retribution against their rivals. It was a lightning round that took a knife to the gut of the old Biden DOJ and their corruption: https://twitter.com/overton_news/status/2021684951045824743?s=20 READ THE FULL ARTICLE AT TOWNHALL.COM

Jack Smith’s failed crusade: How DOJ overreach fueled Trump’s comeback

By Julie Kelly | Commentary, Declassified Substack John Lauro, the president's criminal defense attorney in the January 6 case, describes his experience with Special Counsel Jack Smith and his henchmen in response to Smith's recent publicity tour. In the summer of 2023, John Lauro—a New York-based defense attorney at the time representing Donald Trump related to the events of January 6—met the government prosecutors leading the criminal investigation into his client. For nearly two hours that day, Lauro spoke to Special Counsel Jack Smith and his team in response to Smith’s target letter notifying the former president that he may face charges for his attempts to “overturn the 2020 election.” Lauro and Todd Blanche, currently the deputy attorney general, tried to dissuade Smith...

Report: Jan. 6 Committee’s Massive Data Sweep Targeted Conservatives and Trump Allies

By John Solomon and Jerry Dunleavy | Just the News More details continue to emerge about the collusion between Democrats in Congress and Biden's weaponized DOJ in targeting Trump. Congressional investigators collected a stunning 30 million lines of phone data mapping contacts between conservatives and the Trump White House in the name of investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol breach, a massive dragnet that raises civil liberty concerns about the lack of limits on the ability of lawmakers to snoop on Americans' private phone calls.    The mountainous collection of phone records were revealed to the FBI led by Chris Wray in late 2023 by former Rep. Adam Kinzinger, a GOP member on the Democrat-run House Jan. 6 select committee. The cache was offered to the bureau on the eve of th...

Kelly: What the Nation Still Doesn’t Know Three Years After Mar‑a‑Lago Raid

By Julie Kelly | Commentary, Declassified with Julie Kelly No photo other than his mugshot is more representative of the unprecedented lawfare against Donald Trump than the photo of alleged classified documents discovered during the nine-hour armed raid of Mar-a-Lago on August 8, 2022. On one hand, Democrats, the news media, and even some NeverTrumpers (clears throat, side-eyes National Review) believed the iconic picture proved Trump had absconded with secret government records and carelessly left them around his Palm Beach mansion, endangering national security. Trump supporters, on the other hand, viewed the photo with disgust, a reminder of just how far the Biden regime and his FBI would go to finally put Trump in handcuffs. But nearly two years later, the same Dep...

Fani Willis ordered to give watchdog all communications with special counsel Jack Smith

By Greg Wehner  | Fox News A Georgia judge ordered Fulton County District Attorney Fani Williams to hand over records related to her communications with special counsel Jack Smith and the U.S. House January 6 Committee after failing to comply with a request under the Open Records Act (ORA).

McBurney also determined in his ruling that Willis violated Georgia’s open records act b...

Judge Tanya Chutkan, the Obama appointee who is presiding over the 2020 election interference case against President-elect Trump, issued a brief order on the docket today, vacating all proceedings scheduled in the case, including any briefing on pending issues.
