Things
are quickening. It would appear that accountability for the COVID-19
cover up is finally here.
David Morens, 78, was the senior advisor to Anthony Fauci at the National
Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID). Mr Morens was indicted
today by the Dept of Justice for conspiracy against the United States; destruction,
alteration, or falsification of records in federal investigations; concealment,
removal, or mutilation of records; and aiding and abetting. [Indictment pdf HERE]
In essence, Morens was indicted for manipulating science, facilitating the
creation of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and then running a cover-up operation.
The evidence of the cover up is what busted him. Morens is hopefully the
first of many who could be taken down in this network. Peter Danszak
should be next.
NEW YORK – […] The indictment, unsealed Monday in
Maryland federal court, also notes two unnamed co-conspirators who “concealed,
removed, destroyed and caused the concealment, and removal of federal records
to evade FOIA [Freedom of Information Act] and FRA [Federal Records Act].”
Information in the indictment indicates the co-conspirators are Dr.
Peter Daszak, the president of Manhattan-based non-profit EcoHealth Alliance,
and Dr. Gerald Keusch, an associate director of Boston University’s
National Emerging Infectious Disease Laboratory Institute and National
Institutes of Health (NIH) grantee.
Morens, who served as a senior advisor to Fauci from 2006 to 2022, made
his initial appearance in court Monday, and a judge granted him conditional
release pending trial so long as he surrenders his US passport by
Wednesday. He must also “avoid all contact” with the
co-conspirators. (more)
DOJ PRESS RELEASE: […] “These allegations
represent a profound abuse of trust at a time when the American people needed
it most — during the height of a global pandemic,” said Acting Attorney General
Todd Blanche. “As alleged in the indictment, Dr. Morens and his co-conspirators
deliberately concealed information and falsified records in an effort to
suppress alternative theories regarding the origins of COVID-19. Government
officials have a solemn duty to provide honest, well-grounded facts and advice
in service of the public interest — not to advance their own personal or
ideological agendas.”
“Circumventing records protocols with the intention of avoiding transparency
is something that will not be tolerated by this FBI,” said FBI Director Kash
Patel. “Not only did Morens allegedly engage in the illegal obfuscation of his
communications, but he received kickbacks for doing so. If you have engaged in
activity conspiring against the United States, we will not stop until you face
justice.” (read more)
The DOJ needs to keep working their way up the chain until they get this
guy….
First,
it becomes very important for people to understand some of the inside baseball
in Washington DC circles in order to hold context for what has been made public
today by the office
of Senator Chuck Grassley.
Inside Chuck Grassley’s office there
is an investigative team that every GOP senator and congressman will admit
consists of the very best researchers and knowledgeable staff officials on how
the Deep State operates. Grassley’s office is the venue, the vehicle or
vessel, for those investigators to operate; Chuck Grassley is not organizing
this group – he facilitates it.
Just as Robert Mueller served as the
figurehead holding the legislatively authorized power of the special
counsel—while the actual investigative work was carried out by his team—Chuck
Grassley similarly acts as a symbolic leader, with the real action happening
within the organization he oversees.
Mueller at 75-years old (2019) was
to the special counsel as Grassley at 93-years old (2026) is to senatorial
inquiry.
That said, today the office of Senator Chuck Grassley sent a dispatch of
connected information about Hillary Clinton from DOJ/FBI files retrieved over
the past several years as part of a longer-term investigation. Grassley’s
office released the FBI Washington Field Office’s 12-page “electronic
communication” (EC) that opened a preliminary investigation into the Clinton
Foundation. [SEE HERE]
They also released a trove of documents showing overwhelming evidence of
pay-to-play criminal activity by the Clinton family and emphasize lack of
response from the DOJ which highlights both politicalization and weaponization
of information by the Department of Justice and FBI.
The FBI and DOJ buried the investigations of Hillary Clinton, yet the
evidence of corruption was simply overwhelming. With time running out on
their ability to retain the venue, in essence Grassley’s office is urgently
asking the DOJ and FBI, how could this not have been prosecuted?
Chuck Grassley, who turns 93 in September, has served in the U.S. Senate for
45 years. Grassley has spent more than 50 years in Congress overall, having
served in the U.S. House from 1975 to 1981 before being elected to his first
term as senator. In 2022, Grassley was elected
to an eighth term, winning against Democratic challenger Michael Franken with
56% of the vote — a smaller margin of victory than in many of his previous
elections. He will be 95 by the time his current term ends in 2028.
Currently, Grassley serves as president pro tempore of the Senate, in
addition to being the Senate Judiciary Committee chair.
I strongly doubt there will be another Grassley term in office and given the
stakes of the 2026 midterm election it looks like the people in his office are
trying to push out as much information as possible while it can still do some
good. I would bet you a donut this is the correct context to view
this information flow.
You cannot have King Charles in the
USA without checking on the perspective of Promethean Action. After all, Queen
Elizabeth II and her offspring King Charles III were the arch nemesis of Lyndon
LaRouche.

The Central Intelligence Agency
(CIA) is one government agency that remains largely hidden from the American
public. It operates with a secret federal budget and appears to run independent
activities, even having the means to generate its own revenue.
By now most people who follow
politics understand how the CIA and State Department operate collaboratively in
most foreign endeavors. Many CIA operatives have State Department
covers. The CIA also works jointly with the State Dept on influence
operations through USAID, which makes some recent events a little
uncomfortable.
Against revelations about the
Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) funding violent domestic extremist groups,
consider this graphic:
It is hard to argue against the possibility that behind some of the domestic
violent extremists (what the FBI calls DVEs) is a network of finance that
traces back to the CIA. It is a fact that USAID is -in part- a CIA
influence operation. If the SPLC is funded by USAID, then who was ultimately
funding the SPLC influence operations? It is an uncomfortable question.
As we researched several serious issues in the past two decades one thing
always surfaces, the intelligence community is often at the heart of the
matter. As a historic example, during research into the Benghazi, Libya chaos
that ultimately led to the death of Ambassador Chris Stevens it became almost
impossible to distinguish the CIA operatives from the State Dept objective.
In fact, we said the same thing about the CIA and the Qatar officials who
were part of that background Libya story. It was almost impossible to tell a
difference between the CIA operatives and the Qatari facilitators. The
money was fungible and the Libya operation was an enmeshed network of mutually
aligned government interests.
♦ When President Obama
signed the finding memos for covert Libya and Syria operations, it is more than
likely the last direct engagement on the matter as everything from that moment
then sank below the surface into some system of CIA operations (Panetta) that
was no longer controlled by the White House.
The boondoggled Libya mess known as “Operation Zero Footprint” burst back
through the surface like a fast-breeching Trident submarine when the al-Qaeda
attack against the Benghazi “consulate” took place.
Political chaos erupted on the surface and the only thing the White House
could do was try to ignore the chaos until the water calmed again. As the
fires raged at the CIA annex in Benghazi, Obama literally went to Las Vegas for
a fundraising event. The quick removal of the current CIA Director
(Petraeus) and a compliant media helped his team manage the issue.
♦ More recently we would not know of a CIA operation in Mexico if it were
not for a car crash that killed two covert CIA operatives. Mexican
President Claudia Sheinbaum said she knew nothing about the operation, I don’t
think she was lying. “A statement from Mexico’s Ministry of Security said one U.S.
agent entered Mexico as a visitor while the other entered with a diplomatic
passport.” {source} If their car didn’t “drive off a ravine and
explode” we would never even know about it.
As many people now understand, intercepting drugs, picking the winning and
losing drug cartels and receiving money from the mechanics of illegal drug and
human trafficking are part of how the CIA self-finances beyond their dark
budget.
When we watch the Pentagon blowing up drug boats coming from Columbia and
Venezuela, many people wonder if those were just the arrogant idiots who forgot
to pay a CIA transit fee.
It is doubtful that CIA Director John Ratcliffe, or any modern CIA Director
since George H.W. Bush ((’76/’77), has specific working knowledge of every
operation the CIA is actually carrying out. That Occam’s Razor acceptance
frames the doorway between Chuck Schumer’s “six ways from Sunday” mindset and
the group of mutually assured recipients of envelopes at George H.W. Bush’s
funeral.
We start to exit the discussion through the same door we entered. If
the SPLC is funded by USAID, then who was ultimately funding the SPLC influence
operations, or, wait for it, the ongoing operations to resist and remove
President Donald Trump.
Yes, it remains a serious of very uncomfortable questions. However,
ultimately at the end of the SPLC goal was the removal of President Trump, no?
FBI Agent Peter Strzok, who originated the Crossfire Hurricane operation
then set up the parameters for the targeting effort itself, received a coin of
recognition and appreciation from what agency? The CIA.
The Trump-Russia collusion narrative was fabricated by Eric Ciaramella and
Julia Gurganus inside the National Intelligence Council and Directorate of
Analysis, at the behest of CIA Director John Brennan.
The same operatives from within the same agency then organized an anonymous
whistleblower complaint in an effort to trigger an impeachment investigation
and subsequent trial. All of it was fraudulently created, fabricated,
spun to give the illusion of something that did not exist, and all of it came
from where? The CIA.
Additionally, every time you find yourself confused or perplexed by events
and outcomes that seemingly contradict themselves and create chaos and
confusion, it is a best practice to pause and remind yourself what it feels
like to be reviewing an intelligence operation.
The hallmark patterns of chaos and confusion run consistent when reviewing
every intelligence operation, and that includes the inability of anyone to
explain just how algorithmically controlled narratives seem to find mysterious
support.
Yes folks, it’s time for a national conversation about the Central
Intelligence Agency.
It was a dark and looming morning in
Washington DC when the studio lights slowly glowed brighter and Margaret
Brennan took that last sip of her grande mochaccino before taking her seat,
after narrowly escaping the danger of a raging gunman who attempted to enter
the dining room last night. The opportunity for a best dramatic media
performance award in a supporting role is before her. This is her moment.
With a confident pause and deep
breath, Brennan delivers her best dramatic voice in combination with outwardly
nervous appearances. “You got this,” a producer says in her ear, as Ms.
Brennan slowly paints the political picture of a “harrowing ordeal,” a near
failure around the events of the evening. A killer travelled by
train from California to her neighborhood in Washington DC, with a shotgun and
handguns. The lost innocence of journalism is almost too much to bear.
While doing her best job pretending
not to know how the aligned politics of the potential killer match her own,
Brennan pushes forward through the crisis, “something must be done.”
Meanwhile, Acting Attorney General
Todd Blanche appears on CBS Face the Nation to discuss the latest assassination
attempt against President Donald Trump and/or any administration
officials. The video and transcript are below:
Blanche says authorities believe correspondents'
dinner suspect was targeting administration
[Transcript] – MARGARET BRENNAN: We go now to acting
Attorney General, Todd Blanche. Welcome, good morning, and I’m glad you are
safe, sir. It was a harrowing–
ACTING ATTORNEY GENERAL TODD BLANCHE: Good morning, you as well.
MARGARET BRENNAN: It was a harrowing night, I want to get straight to what
we know now, in the light of day. The FBI, as I understand it, has gone to a
home in Torrance, California, believed to belong to the alleged shooter, most
likely into his DC hotel room as well. What have they discovered there? What do
we know?
BLANCHE: Yes, that’s right. So the FBI worked all night, working with local
law enforcement, working with the Secret Service. They’ve executed various
search warrants on locations, also on devices that were recovered from the
suspect. This investigation is just over 12 hours old, so we still are actively
looking at everything that happened, but as of now, we- we have- we have
collected a fair amount of evidence, which we’re now going through.
MARGARET BRENNAN: Any indication at this point that he was part of a group?
Was there any foreign nexus to the inspiration for the violence he attempted
last night?
BLANCHE: We’re still looking into motivation, and that’s something that
hopefully we’ll learn over the next couple of days. We do believe, based upon
just a very preliminary start to understanding what happened, that he was
targeting members of the administration. We don’t- we don’t have specifics
beyond that kind of general statement from what we’ve learned so far, but we
are- we’re actively talking to witnesses that knew him, and talking to other
individuals and going through the material that we’ve collected. So I expect
that you will hear more, more about that in the coming days.
MARGARET BRENNAN: You mentioned a statement, is the shooter- alleged
shooter, sharing details on what he was attempting to do? What makes you say it
was a threat to administration officials writ large?
BLANCHE: Just based on the evidence we’ve collected. Not, not a statement
from, from the suspect, just from- from what we’ve learned in our preliminary
investigation, he’s not actively cooperating. I expect that he will be formally
charged tomorrow morning in federal court in Washington, DC, and we’ll go from
there.
MARGARET BRENNAN: So the Secret Service has said that the suspected gunman
was staying in the hotel. He walked up to a security checkpoint with a shotgun,
handgun and multiple knives. How long had he been inside that hotel, and was
there a security protocol for- for guests?
BLANCHE: That’s- we’re still, we’re still understanding the security
protocols that led to him being, being able to have firearms in that hotel. We
do believe he was staying in the hotel in the days leading up to last night. We
believe that he traveled by train from Los Angeles to Chicago and then from
Chicago to Washington, DC. As far as what happened with him coming down and
breaching the perimeter, as you’ve seen from some videos that have already been
released, he was apprehended and subdued feet away from breaking the perimeter
so- so we were all safe inside, and that’s a testament to the Secret Service
doing their job, and to law enforcement doing exactly what we, we hope and
expect them to do in a time- they train for this their entire careers, and many
of them never actually see it happen in real time, and it happened last night,
and they reacted exactly as they should have.
MARGARET BRENNAN: So the alleged shooter, as we just said, had multiple
weapons in his possession. Here in the District of Columbia, open carry is not
permitted. You just said he traveled from California across the country by
train. At this point, are you thinking at the federal level of changing
security protocols in any way to, for example, match on trains what you are
expected to go through when you fly where you do have to declare a weapon when
you cross state lines. How did he travel by train without any challenge and
arrive here in the nation’s capital?
BLANCHE: Look, this isn’t about, in my mind, changing the law or making the
laws more restrictive around possession of firearms. It appears he purchased
these firearms the past couple years. We don’t know how those firearms ended up
in his possession in DC. We can, we can make some assumptions based upon what I
just said about how he got to DC, but I don’t, I don’t think the narrative here
is about changing laws or changing- making. making our laws more restrictive.
This is about law enforcement who are doing their jobs and a suspect who tried
to do something and failed miserably.
MARGARET BRENNAN: Well, I’m not talking about changing the law in terms of
possession of a firearm. I’m asking about crossing state lines with that
firearm and arriving at the capital. If you try to fly, you do have to have
your firearms declared in some way. You don’t when you get on a train.
BLANCHE: Well, look, you are talking about, I mean, if we’re asking the
question, that’s talking about changing the laws, and I don’t think that’s
something that we should be focused on right now in any way, shape or form–
MARGARET BRENNAN: Okay, not a loophole in your–
BLANCHE: There are lots of ways that- yeah, so I mean, look, the we don’t
and we also don’t know. We don’t have all the answers this morning. We’re still
looking into, into what happened, how he got the guns, if he got them legally?
But what we do know is that- is that he tried to use them. He did have two
firearms and some knives on his person when he tried to use them, and he was
stopped before he got anywhere near the president before he got near any of us
that were in the room at the time of that this occurred and- and that’s, that’s
again, we can’t, we can’t overlook, and I’m not suggesting you are, but we
can’t overlook the great work of the Secret Service last night.
MARGARET BRENNAN: No, absolutely. We’re all thankful for that. But we do see
these kind of threats at the local and state level as well, for those who
aren’t as heavily protected as all of us in that room were last night, which is
why I ask you, if you’re reviewing that. US Attorney for the District of
Columbia, Jeanine Pirro, said the suspect will be charged with two counts,
using a firearm during a violent crime and assault on a federal officer using a
dangerous weapon. Do you at this point anticipate further charges?
BLANCHE: Yes, I- we’ll see about further charges. So that’s one of the
things that we need to go through the evidence. So there’s a lot of federal
charges that could be in play beyond those two charges, but it depends on what
– it depends on us understanding his motive, his intent, his premeditation,
that what led into him, him deciding that he was going to do what he did last
night. But just to be clear, those are very serious charges. He will have a –
he will face a judge as early as tomorrow morning for those two charges, but
but the investigation is brand new, and so we will continue to investigate. And
if there’s more charges, they’ll they’ll be brought. He’ll be charged via
complaint, and that’ll be tomorrow morning, and then an indictment will come,
will come thereafter, and there could be additional charges in that indictment,
but we have to see as the evidence develops.
MARGARET BRENNAN: So you must have attended past correspondence dinners. I
mean, for over 50 years, they’ve been held at this hotel. Last night, it was
extraordinary, because we had the president, the vice president, the speaker of
the house, the secretary of state, the secretary of defense, the secretary of
the treasury, all in the same room. Those are five out of the top six leaders
in that – that line of succession for this country, should something have
actually happened to the president himself. Was there planning for that? I
mean, when we have the state of the union, there’s a designated survivor. Was
there an increased concern about gathering all of our leadership in that room
last night?
BLANCHE: We will not stop doing things like we did last night in this
administration and this man, if his, one of his goals was to get us to be
scared, he failed. And let me just, let me make clear that you’re right, all
those folks were in the room and more, and yet we were all safe. Law
enforcement did their jobs, and so President Trump said last night, and he
means it, and I very much agree with him that this type of conduct will not
deter him, it will not stop him from living, it will not stop him from doing
his job. And that not is not – not only him, but the vice president, the
cabinet, the law enforcement, you all, journalists, you’re not going to stop
doing your jobs either because of this, of this lone man that did what he did.
And so this is a, this is something that that we all are still reacting to
because it’s fresh, but I assure you that the types of things that you saw last
night and the president being out there and available to the American public,
that will not change because of what this guy tried to do last night.
MARGARET BRENNAN: Well, there has been reporting over the past few months
that due to this increased threat environment, both on the domestic front, but
also because of the war in Gaza because of the war in Iran, that there is an
intensity to this moment and that there had been an effort to not allow the
vice president and president to be together because of the risk. Why was that
different?
BLANCHE: Vice president and president are together almost every day. I mean,
they’re they’re together constantly so of course security–
MARGARET BRENNAN: –in a public event. So that’s false reporting?
BLANCHE: That’s well, I see them together all the time. They were certainly
together last night. And so look, I’m not minimizing the threats that President
Trump and the vice president and that all the cabinet face every day for the
reasons that you just described domestically. Iran internationally. And that is
why we have a robust law enforcement keeping us safe and doing their jobs. It
allows the vice president and president to do the work they need to do. It
allows the secretary of state to do the work that he needs to do. And so on the
one hand, we take those threats very seriously. Always have and we always will.
On the other hand, we do not the way we respond to those threats is not to go
into a bunker and hide, it’s to trust the law enforcement that are that are
keeping us safe and and that’s what happened last night, and that’s what I
think will we will continue to see going forward.
MARGARET BRENNAN: So as I understand it, there was one injured Secret
Service agent, but as the president said, he was wearing a bulletproof vest.
Can you tell us if he’s been released from the hospital? And to be clear, there
were- there was gunfire happening. We believe from our reporting that the
shooter did get off some rounds. Was it the alleged shooter or alleged
assailant here who shot the Secret Service agent?
BLANCHE: That’s what we that’s what we understand as of now. And the
president spoke with him last night. He was in great spirits. He apparently
didn’t really even want to go to the hospital, although he was, he was
certainly injured, and it was the right thing as far as whether he’s been
released, I I don’t want to get into his, you know, his medical situation.
That’s not fair to him, but enough to say that we all heard his voice last
night, the president gave him words of encouragement and appreciation and
thanking him for the work that he’s doing for all of us and and I will tell
you, he was in very good spirits, and so that’s a tragedy avoided, and it is
because he was wearing a bulletproof vest.
MARGARET BRENNAN: I have to let you go. But writ large, is there thought of
increasing the country’s security posture after last night?
BLANCHE: We have every single day we’re focused on our security, and so I
promise you that that the work that we were doing yesterday will continue
today, and if there’s things that we need to adjust, I will. But last night was
of all the bad things that happened last night, and there were a lot. It was a
tragic evening. It was also a success story when it comes to the Secret Service
and FBI and law enforcement, of which we’re we’re very grateful.
MARGARET BRENNAN: All right. Todd Blanche, thank you for your insights, and
we’ll be tracking the investigation as it develops.
