“This Is Election Interference!… Our Whole System Is Corrupt!” – President Trump UNLOADS on Crooked Marxist Dems Outside NYC Courtroom (VIDEO)
President Donald Trump: Marlago is worth $18 million, and it’s worth one and a half billion dollars, or thereabouts. He said it was worth 18 billion. So they defrauded us because he called me a fraud.
He called me a fraud and he valued Mar Lago at 18,008,000,000. And you can’t do that. It’s worth probably 50 to 100 times more than that. And our corrupt attorney general, she’s totally corrupt. She just wanted the publicity to run for governor, and then she failed running for governor.
…She (Letitia James) went after Trump because she was running for governor. That’s the only reason. But she got the judge to value Mar a Lago for $18 million when the smallest house in Palm Beach is probably worth $50 million. And this is the biggest, the best anywhere in the country. There’s nothing like it.
So they put it down at 18 million, and they said I overvalued it because we had it valued at a much lower number than it’s worth. And by the way, my financial documents are valued much less than my actual value, which nobody even knows. But the financial documents that I gave to the bank are much less than my actual net worth. So therefore, I gave them to the bank. They can’t be abroad because I gave them lower numbers.
I’m probably one of the only people ever to seek a loan. I didn’t even need the loan because you see the kind of cash I have. I didn’t even need loans. Maybe you don’t do a deal or two, but I have a lot of cash, a lot of everything. A lot of people are very surprised at how successful this is.
You saw it today with the kind of cash I have and the kind of success we’ve had. But I’m a private company. I was never going to reveal this kind of stuff. But now it comes out. It comes out because the corrupt attorney general sued me for fraud.
And then they found out they had no case and they have no case. And today, if you read the New York Law Journal, they basically say they have no case against Trump. But I’m here, stuck here, and I can’t come pay. I’d rather be right now in Iowa. I’d rather be in New Hampshire or South Carolina or Ohio or a lot of other places, but I’m stuck here because I have a corrupt attorney general that communicates with the DOJ in Washington to keep me nice and busy because I’m leading biden in the polls by a lot.
This is election interference! They made up a fake case. They’re fraudulent people. And the judge already knows what he’s going to do. He’s a Democrat judge.
In all fairness he has no choice. He has no choice. He’s run by the Democrats. I know this city better than anybody knows this city. There’s nobody who knows it like I do. He’s a Democrat judge out of the clubhouses. He’s controlled. And it’s a shame. What’s going on here is a shame.
Our whole system is corrupt. This is corrupt. Atlanta is corrupt. And what’s coming out of DC is corrupt.
This one is very interesting. Why attend? Because I want to point it out to the press how corrupt it is because nobody else seems to be able to do it.
Thank you very much.

The Chair of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party Tino Chrupalla was rushed to the hospital in the South German town of Ingolstadt after being attacked by Antifa radicals with a syringe containing an unknown substance. Co-Chair Alice Weidel is in hiding under police protection after credible threats of assassination.
AfD Chair Tino Chrupalla was rushed to the hospital this afternoon under police protection after a rally in Ingolstadt, home of the car maker Audi. Apparently he was attacked by Antifa radicals with a syringe and suffered an anaphylactic shock. Chrupalla allegedly pointed to two young men (photo) before he was taken to hospital in an ambulance. A syringe was found at the scene.

An antifa counter-protest was permitted to take place within throwing distance, supported by the establishment parties.
AfD Co-Chair Alice Weidel has been in hiding under police protection for ten days after credible assassination threats, the party revealed. Weidel had to cancel plans to campaign for the AfD ahead of state elections in Bavaria and Hesse on Sunday, Oct. 8
The AfD is currently polling at 23% nationally, making it the most popular single party in Germany. Leftist media went bonkers over the weekend after Elon Musk shared a post by Italian account Radio Genoa which called on Germans to support the AfD.

The Stasi tactics used by the German government to attack the AfD should come as no suprise to anyone: German chancellor Olaf Scholz partnered with the East German Stasi when he was a young activist, government officials like Interior Minister Nancy Faeser and “Diversity Czar” Ferda Ataman wrote essays for far-left “Antifa” magazine. AfD candidate Stefan Jurca was attacked in Augsburg in August, AfD Vice-Speaker in the Bundestag Beatrix von Storch was attacked with feces by a disgusting leftist, as Gateway Pundit reported.

Biden’s Dog Commander Caught on Film Biting White House Staffer: Report
Days after Politico reported (with a joke of a headline, “Commander’s taste buds”) that White House staffers were saying Joe Biden’s German Shepherd dog Commander only bites Secret Service agents but is warm and cuddly with staff, the Daily Mail reported Wednesday that a tourist filmed Commander biting a staffer in September.
The tourist photographed two-year-old Commander biting White House grounds superintendent Dale Haney, 71, on the arm on September 13 while Haney was playing with him. Nearly two weeks later, CNN reported Commander had again attacked a Secret Service agent.
Commander is known to have bitten eleven Secret Service agents since Joe and Jill Biden brought him in to the White House in December 2021 to replace their previous German Shepherd, Major, who was sent away after repeatedly attacking and biting Secret Service agents. One of the agents Commander attacked had to be treated at a hospital. A third Biden German Shepherd, Champ, died in June 2021 and did not have a record of biting while at the White House.
Much of what is known about the Bidens’ dogs attacking agents is thanks to Judicial Watch.
White House photo of Joe Biden and Commander on the White House grounds. Hopefully Joe was siccing Commander on a squirrel and not a Secret Service agent:
On Monday the Daily Mail reported White House staffers saying the stern looks of Secret Service agents provoked Commander’s attacks on them.

Wednesday, the Daily Mail reported a tourist captured Commander biting a staffer:
EXCLUSIVE: President Joe Biden's German Shepherd Commander is seen biting White House staffer, days before it bit Secret Service agent, in new photos https://t.co/uu1gYWHjVx pic.twitter.com/uZVlVKXMOD

It goes without saying that if President Trump had two dogs in succession who repeatedly attacked Secret Service agents and staff that it would be grounds for impeachment by Democrats and around the clock reporting on MSNBC.
A serious question is, why the unions representing federal employees have not filed a workplace safety complaint with OSHA? Another is what the D.C. government is doing about this vicious dog.
The problem is obviously with the owners. Dogs take cues from their masters’ behavior. Any hostility to Secret Service agents by Joe and Jill Biden would be picked up by Commander (and Major). Perhaps the Biden harbor hostility to agents because they know Secret Service agents can be compelled to testify against them in criminal and/or impeachment proceedings thanks to a precedent set in the Clinton-Lewinsky investigation in the 1990s.

BREAKING: Jim Jordan Launches Bid for Speaker
House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) on Wednesday announced a bid for House Speaker after Kevin McCarthy was dethroned.
8 Republicans voted to oust McCarthy: Biggs, Buck, Burchett, Crane, Gaetz, Good, Mace, and Rosendale.
Chairman Jordan on Tuesday night teased a speakership bid during an appearance on Fox News with host Sean Hannity.
Hannity pressed Jordan on whether he would consider the role if offered, to which Jordan responded, “I’m going to talk to the conference over the next week, Sean. I think that’s the key.”
On Wednesday, Jim Jordan launched a bid for House Speaker.
“We are at a critical crossroad in our nation’s history. Now is the time for our Republican conference to come together to keep our promise to Americans. The problems we face are challenging, but they are not insurmountable. We can focus on the changes that improve the country and unite us in offering real solutions. But no matter what we do, we must do it together as a conference,” Chairman Jordan wrote.
“I respectfully ask for your support for Speaker of the House of Representatives,” Rep. Jordan said in a letter to his colleagues.
Fox News reported:
House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, announced he is running for speaker — the first GOP lawmaker to put his hat in the ring for what’s sure to be a competitive race.
The House of Representatives is without an elected leader after former speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., was ousted by a small group of rebels within his own party.
Jordan said Wednesday morning that he would step up to run for the job. House Republicans plan to hold a candidate forum next Tuesday and an election the following day.
Jim Jordan, Chairman of the Judiciary, is currently the leader of one of three House Committees spearheading the impeachment inquiry of Joe Biden.
Rep. Gaetz showed support for his “mentor” Jim Jordan Tuesday night in a post on X.

HAHA! Hakeem Jeffries Staffers Cleaned Out Pelosi’s Office, Hauled Away Her Belongings in Bags As Room Was Re-Keyed

This just keeps getting better!
Acting Speaker, Rep. Patrick McHenry ordered Nancy Pelosi to vacate her Capitol hideaway office by Wednesday.
Rep. Patrick McHenry (NC) was appointed as Acting Speaker after McCarthy was ousted.
McCarthy chose McHenry as Speaker Pro Tempore earlier this year and he now has all the powers of a House Speaker.
Patrick McHenry
McHenry ordered Pelosi to “immediately” vacate her private Capitol office and since she was in California attending the late Senator Dianne Feinstein’s funeral, Hakeem Jeffries staffers were forced to clean out her office.
How come McCarthy never made a move like this?
“Sadly, because I am in California to mourn the loss of and pay tribute to my dear friend Dianne Feinstein, I am unable to retrieve my belongings at this time,” she said.
Jeffries staffers tossed Pelosi’s belongings in bags and hauled them away as the room was re-keyed.
“Please vacate the space tomorrow, the room will be re-keyed,” wrote a top GOP aide, according to Politico.
Ruthless!
Pelosi lashed out at McHenry in a statement.
“With all of the important decisions that the new Republican Leadership must address, which we are all eagerly awaiting, one of the first actions taken by the new Speaker Pro Tempore was to order me to immediately vacate my office in the Capitol,” Pelosi said.
“This eviction is a sharp departure from tradition. As Speaker, I gave former Speaker Hastert a significantly larger suite of offices for as long as he wished,” Pelosi whined.

UK Home Secretary Suella Braverman Proposes Legislation to Stop Registered Sex Offenders From Changing Their Name or Gender
Nothing like an election to make ‘conservatives’ start paying attention to the will of the population.
Take the United Kingdom, for example. In the run-up to a general election next year, the incumbent Conservative Party (the Tory party), presently led by PM Rishi Sunak, started implementing and announcing policies of an unmistakably conservative nature.
Home Secretary Suella Braverman has now confirmed that the government will present legislation that will stop registered sex offenders from changing their identities, while also strengthening background checks to catch them if they do.
The government aims to implement ‘Della’s Law’, named after Della Wright, a woman who was raped when she was six years old, by a man who had changed his name five times.
Sex offenders have currently been able to exploit a loophole that allows them to change their name via ‘deed poll’.
According to UK government website, a deed poll ‘is a legal document that proves a change of name. You can change any part of your name, add or remove names and hyphens, or change spelling’.
Suella Braverman stated in her address to the Tory Conference, as reported by Sky News:
“‘I don’t care if anyone thinks this is interfering with their human rights’, she told the conference hall. ‘It’s time to worry less about the rights of sexual predators and more about the rights of victims’.”
The simple deed poll process takes only 15 minutes to fill online. It allows convicted sex offenders to assume a new identity, despite having been put on the ‘Sex Offenders Register’.
Thousands of sex offenders are changing their details without notifying police as they must. Almost 12,000 people have been already charged for this offense.
Braverman’s proposed solution to the Tory Conference is a ‘lifetime ban on sex offenders changing their name or gender’.
Daily Mail reported:
“A change to a convicted sex offender’s details at any of those agencies would alert the DBS [Disclosure and Barring Service] and they will risk prosecution. Currently, all registered sex offenders must tell their local police force within three days after changing their name.”
While sex offenders are obliged to inform the authorities if they change name or any other information, the proposed new law goes further in making it a crime for anyone convicted of a sex-related crime to change their identity.
“Figures show 16,298 registered sex offenders were charged for failing to tell police they had changed their name, address or other personal details between 2015 and 2020.
[…] In some cases, pedophiles banned for life from working with children used their new identities to get a job in schools and homes where they committed further offences.”
The home secretary also attacked the Labour Party, accusing them of being ‘relaxed on immigration’. The Labour opposition is ahead in the opinion polls for the next election.
Again on Sky News:
“‘People with luxury beliefs will flock to Labour at the next election because that’s the way to get the kind of society they want’, she said.
‘They like open borders. The migrants coming in won’t be taking their jobs. In fact, they are more likely to have them mowing their lawns or cleaning their homes.
[…] The public knows another thing – that the future could bring millions more migrants to these shores, uncontrolled and unmanageable unless the government they elect next year acts decisively to stop that happening.'”

Biden Handing out $100 Million to Help EV Industry in Disadvantaged Communities
This article originally appeared on WND.com
Guest by post by Bob Unruh
In a plan that specifically states it is to “ensure disadvantaged communities” are able to benefit from Joe Biden’s new demands for – and spending on – electric cars, the administration is committing $100 million to repair and replace EV charging stations across the country.
A report from government watchdog Judicial Watch explains Biden is “subsidizing” the electric vehicle industry with $15.5 billion for which taxpayers will be on the hook.
That’s in addition to the $100 million for EV charging station fixes, the report said.
“The venture will ‘ensure disadvantaged communities benefit from upgraded charging infrastructure,’ according to the Department of Transportation, which is handing out funding.
Under the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Formula Program the money will be sent to states, and then to others to “strategically deploy charging stations and establish an interconnected network to facilitate data collection, access and reliability.”
The report said the White House launched the Climate and Economic Justice Screening Tool in response to the president’s January 2021 order to tackle the “climate crisis at home and abroad.”
Judicial Watch reported that includes “an extensive section dedicated to securing environmental justice for disadvantaged, historically marginalized and overburdened communities, by among other things, creating a White House Environmental Justice Interagency Council consisting of top government leaders.”
Those bureaucrats were told to address environmental “justice” in those locations.
“Agencies shall make achieving environmental justice part of their missions by developing programs, policies, and activities to address the disproportionately high and adverse human health, environmental, climate-related and other cumulative impacts on disadvantaged communities, as well as the accompanying economic challenges of such impacts,” Biden ordered.
“It is not clear what the EV ownership rate is in marginalized or overburdened communities or the demand for chargers because the government has failed to provide that information. However, the administration does reveal that as of this month, 6,261 public charging ports out of 151,506 nationwide were identified as being temporarily unavailable,” the report said.

Seething Fox & Friends Host Brian Kilmeade Goes Off on Rep. Tim Burchett for Ousting Kevin McCarthy, Mocks Him for Praying Over Vote (Video)
Fox & Friends co-host Brian Kilmeade angrily confronted Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) in an interview Wednesday morning over his vote to oust Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) as Speaker of the House. Burchett was one of a handful of Republicans who joined with every Democrat to support the successful motion to vacate the speakership offered by Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) on Tuesday. At one point in his contentious, condescending inquisition of Burchett, Kilmeade mocked Burchett for saying he prayed over his decision to vote on McCarthy.
Kilmeade repeatedly challenged Burchett–interrupting, talking over and hectoring him such that Burchett called him out several times for how he was conducting the interview, though Burchett remained calm and polite throughout the onslaught by Kilmeade.
Excerpt:
Kilmeade: “What do you think this is going to do for the Republican Party and chances of holding on to leadership and the majority when it looks like you’re having, you’re the ring leader of a circus led by Matt Gaetz who likes to blow things up but not offer any new ideas? Are you happy following Matt Gaetz? Is that you’re leader?”
Burchett: “I’m not following Matt Gaetz. I made my own decision. I didn’t ask Matt for his approval…”
Kilmeade: (Talking over Burchett): “But if Gaetz didn’t challenge you wouldn’t go to challenge.”
Burchett: “Do what?”
Kilmeade: “If Matt Gaetz didn’t stand up, you weren’t gong to challenge, you know that.”
Burchett: “I believe, I believe I would have.”
Kilmeade: (Talking over Burchett) “Oh, come on!”
Burchett: “…and uh, and uh, oh well…”
Kilmeade: (Talking over Burchett) “Please? You were praying about it one minute, the next minute you’re gonna lead an insurgency?”
Burchett: “Sir, you don’t think that praying about it’s important? Is that what you’re saying?”
Kilmeade: (Talking over Burchett) “One, one minute you’re praying about how you’re going to vote with Matt Gaetz, and the next minute you’re gonna lead an insurgency?”
Burchett: “Listen, you’ve got a pre-determined answer to everything. I prayed about…”
Kilmeade: (Talking over Burchett) “No, I have, I have an opinion about what’s going on. You have an opinion, too.”
Burchett: “And you talk over me every time I try to make a point.”
Kilmeade: “Alright, make your point.”
Burchett: “The point is, is that we are 33 trillion dollars in debt. This speaker was woefully, woefully lacking in leadership skills. He always places the blame somewhere else. America’s gonna be better off with new leadership, and that’s the bottom line.”
Kilmeade: (Talking over Burchett) “Right, and who is it?”
Burchett: “May, possibly, possibly could be Steve Scalise, it could be Elise Stefanik, could be Roger Williams out of Texas, it could be um, uh, Mark Green out of Tennessee. Our bench is, is…”
Kilmeade: (Talking over Burchett): “So they all supported, they all supported Kevin McCarthy, including the most conservative guy I know, Jim Jordan. Why are you smarter than Jim Jordan and, and the two hundred and ten plus Republicans? Why are you smarter?”
Burchett: “I represent my district, brother, and why are you smarter than me? You’re condemning me because I, I stand up on my own, and that’s, that’s what I do.”
Kilmeade: (Talking over Burchett) “I’m not condemning you, I’m questioning you. You don’t like being questioned?”
Burchett: “No, you’re not. You’re, no, you’re just, the line of questioning is very negative, and you know that and I know that.
Kilmeade: (Tries and fails to talk over Burchett.)
Burchett: “And, and, when this is all over with, when this is all over with and we have a new speaker and we’re running smooth, let’s have this conversation again.”

Kevin McCarthy was ousted as House Speaker on Tuesday in a 216-210 vote after Rep. Matt Gaetz filed a Motion to Vacate the Chair.
McCarthy is now the “shortest serving speaker since 1876.” According to The Guardian, McCarthy is also “the first speaker of the House forced out of the job in US history.”
Gaetz spoke with reporters after he successfully ousted McCarthy from speakership on Tuesday.
Gaetz said Rep. Scalise would make a great House Speaker.

Congressman Jim Jordan also endorsed Steve Scalise as a potential candidate for House Speaker Tuesday night after McCarthy was ousted.
“I think Steve would also be a great speaker. I think Steve has given so much for our country. He’s done an outstanding job as Majority Leader. But I do think the conference going to have to get together,” said Jordan.
Few GOP members have already shown their support for Scalise as House Speaker.
“Steve Scalise is our leader. If he wants it, then I think that it’s likely that he will be the leader — the speaker nominee,” said Rep. Austin Scott (R-GA.).
“I’m not here to make a judgment on where Mr. Scalise stands with his rehabilitation and recovery. I would give him the deference to be able to decide whether or not he’d like to put himself forward as a candidate,” Gaetz said. “But he’d be the type of person that I could see myself supporting. There are many people, though, I could see myself supporting.”
Trump is also teasing a bid for House Speaker.

DEVELOPING: 75,000 Healthcare Workers Go on Strike – Largest Healthcare Strike in US History
75,000 Kaiser Permanente healthcare workers in California, Virginia, and three other states went on strike on Wednesday over staffing shortages.
The three-day walkout involves nurses, technicians, pharmacists and support staff.
Healthcare workers are striking over wage increases, nationwide minimum wage, health benefits, retirement plans, and tuition assistance programs.
AP reported:
Picketing began Wednesday morning at Kaiser Permanente hospitals as some 75,000 health care workers go on strike in Virginia, California and three other states over wages and staffing shortages, marking the latest major labor unrest in the United States.
Kaiser Permanente is one of the country’s larger insurers and health care system operators, with 39 hospitals nationwide. The non-profit company, based in Oakland, California, provides health coverage for nearly 13 million people, sending customers to clinics and hospitals it runs or contracts with to provide care.
The Coalition of Kaiser Permanente Unions, representing about 85,000 of the health system’s employees nationally, approved a strike for three days in California, Colorado, Oregon and Washington, and for one day in Virginia and Washington, D.C.

Rep. Jim Jordan Mulls Over Speakership Run, While Rep. Steve Scalise Secretly Working ‘Behind the Scenes’ for House Speaker Role (VIDEO)
The race for the Speaker of the House is heating up within the Republican Party, and it seems that two prominent figures are emerging as potential candidates: Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA), and former President Donald Trump. The three men have been making the rounds in the media, but it’s what’s happening behind closed doors that has everyone talking.
In a recent interview with Sean Hannity, Rep. Jim Jordan was asked about the possibility of running for Speaker of the House. Jordan, who currently serves as the Judiciary Committee Chairman, was non-committal but did not rule out the possibility.
“Sean, we got to come to a decision as a conference,” Jordan said.
“I’m going to leave that to the conference. Of course, I’ve talked to colleagues, or colleagues have come to me and talked to me about that but this is the decision for the conference,” he added.
Hannity pressed Jordan on whether he would consider the role if offered, to which Jordan responded, “I’m going to talk to the conference over the next week, Sean. I think that’s the key.”
Rep. Jim Jordan is reportedly in active discussions with fellow House GOP members as he seriously considers running for the position of Speaker, according to Politico, citing two Republicans who have direct knowledge on the matter.
According to the news outlet, “A person familiar with the situation said an announcement that Jordan will throw his hat into the ring for speaker not necessarily imminent, but could formally come by the end of the week.”
During the interview, Jordan endorsed Steve Scalise of Louisiana as a potential candidate for House Speaker.
“I think Steve would also be a great speaker. I think Steve has given so much for our country. He’s done an outstanding job as Majority Leader. But I do think the conference going to have to get together,” said Jordan.
While Jordan’s potential candidacy is making headlines, sources indicate that Rep. Steve Scalise, the current House Majority Leader, is quietly working “behind the scenes” to secure support for his own run for Speaker.
Scalise has reportedly been meeting with key members of the Republican conference to discuss the party’s future and his vision for the role of Speaker, according to Politico.
“Majority Leader Steve Scalise is reaching out to members to gauge whether they would support him for speaker, according to three people familiar with the conversations,” the news outlet reported.
When asked about his health in relation to the potential new position, Scalise confidently replied, “I feel great.”
“We have a really tight relationship, and we have a lot of work to get done,” Scalise said. “But I haven’t made any formal announcement.”
Few GOP members have already shown their support for Scalise as House Speaker.
“Steve Scalise is our leader. If he wants it, then I think that it’s likely that he will be the leader — the speaker nominee,” said Rep. Austin Scott (R-GA.).
“I’m not here to make a judgment on where Mr. Scalise stands with his rehabilitation and recovery. I would give him the deference to be able to decide whether or not he’d like to put himself forward as a candidate,” Gaetz said. “But he’d be the type of person that I could see myself supporting. There are many people, though, I could see myself supporting.”
Adding another layer of complexity to the race is former President Donald Trump. Hannity mentioned that he had heard from multiple sources that Trump had been contacted about the possibility of serving as an “interim” Speaker.
Jordan was enthusiastic about the idea but emphasized that he would prefer to see Trump back in the White House. “I want Donald Trump to be the next President of the United States,” Jordan said. “If he wants to be Speaker, then that’s fine, too.”

Crybaby, Turncoat General Is Writing New Book About Trump’s Mean Words Behind Closed Doors – VDH Delivers Much-Needed Spanking

John Kelly, the former White House Chief of Staff for President Donald Trump, is writing a new book slamming his old boss for saying mean things behind closed doors. The mean words were much too harsh for the general’s sensitive ears.
It’s a new low for Judas Kelly.
CNN reported:
John Kelly, the longest-serving White House chief of staff for Donald Trump, offered his harshest criticism yet of the former president in an exclusive statement to CNN.
Kelly set the record straight with on-the-record confirmation of a number of damning stories about statements Trump made behind closed doors attacking US service members and veterans, listing a number of objectionable comments Kelly witnessed Trump make firsthand.
“What can I add that has not already been said?” Kelly said, when asked if he wanted to weigh in on his former boss in light of recent comments made by other former Trump officials. “A person that thinks those who defend their country in uniform, or are shot down or seriously wounded in combat, or spend years being tortured as POWs are all ‘suckers’ because ‘there is nothing in it for them.’ A person that did not want to be seen in the presence of military amputees because ‘it doesn’t look good for me.’ A person who demonstrated open contempt for a Gold Star family – for all Gold Star families – on TV during the 2016 campaign, and rants that our most precious heroes who gave their lives in America’s defense are ‘losers’ and wouldn’t visit their graves in France.
“A person who is not truthful regarding his position on the protection of unborn life, on women, on minorities, on evangelical Christians, on Jews, on working men and women,” Kelly continued. “A person that has no idea what America stands for and has no idea what America is all about. A person who cavalierly suggests that a selfless warrior who has served his country for 40 years in peacetime and war should lose his life for treason – in expectation that someone will take action. A person who admires autocrats and murderous dictators. A person that has nothing but contempt for our democratic institutions, our Constitution, and the rule of law.
Kelly once again spewed the lie that President Trump mocked dead American heroes fighting in World War I, something even anti-Trumper John Bolton debunked.
It should be noted that former Generals Mark Milley, John Kelly, Jim Mattis and H.R. McMaster undermined President Trump during his administration. Mark Milley was even calling the Chinese to tip them off in case a war was imminent. For some reason, these men have never been indicted for their crimes.
Victor Davis Hanson gave General John Kelley a much-needed spanking following his recent attacks on President Trump.
Via VDH on Twitter-X:
Suddenly after three years, a number of angry former Trump appointees—some on the prompt of potential or real book promotions, or in anger about firings, or their own legal exposure—are replaying all the supposedly atrocious things Trump said in private to them between 2017-21. If, in fact, they are accurate, then by all means they were certainly atrocious things to have said even in private—and should never have been spoken by a president. But what is mysterious about their outrage are three other considerations that we hear nothing about from such now quite public critics:
1) Is there not a difference between atrocious bluster in private and public, methodical weaponization and destruction of our institutions?
Can such critics at least say they deplore the weaponization of the FBI (e.g., the contracting of old Twitter to suppress the news, the admitted lying under oath of its interim director Andrew McCabe, the convenient “amnesia” on 245 occasions of James Comey while under oath, and the bureau’s current fixation with parents at school board meetings, traditional Catholics and pro-life activists)?
Or the corruption of our intelligence officials who were knee-deep in the fraud of “51 former intelligence authorities” who willingly lied, on the prompt of the current secretary of state, about a laptop—deliberately so to influence a presidential debate and election?
Or the entire collusion hoax that was hatched by the Clinton campaign, with help from the FBI, DOJ, and CIA?
Or consider two of our top intelligence officials who lied admittedly under oath, such as Brennan and Clapper? Does not all that pose a danger to democracy?
Or the politicalization of the DOJ that was ready to exempt, save a brave dissenting judge, Hunter Biden and by extension the Biden clan from real legal jeopardy. Was it not wrong in 2020 for retired 4-stars officers to attack in venomous terms and publicly their commander-in-chief? If not so, why then is there a statute at all in the uniform code of military justice prohibiting just that?
2) As far as “dangers to the democracy”, cannot some at least cite the radical changes in voting laws done in key states in 2020 under the guise of Covid, or the infusion of $419 million by Mark Zuckerberg to appropriate the work of registrars and voting officials in key states?
Or the “cabal” and “conspiracy” to ensure the Biden 2020 victory as boasted about in stunning detail by liberal Time writer Molly Ball?
Who tried to cancel student loans without a vote of congress, or drained a great deal of the strategic petroleum reserve solely to boost approval before the midterms?
Or the 2016 leftwing effort to pressure the electors not to vote according to their constitutional responsibilities and instead throw the election to Clinton?
Can’t they at least cite the 120-days of looting, riot, arson, attacks on law enforcement, and deaths that were largely exempt from punishment—violence that included an attempt to storm the White House grounds to get at a president, and the torching of a police precinct, federal courthouse, and iconic DC church?
Or cannot they deplore the 2015-17 macabre threats to Trump’s person by celebrities (beheading, shooting, stabbing, incineration, blowing up, etc.)?
What actually had Trump done in his first moments in office when DC rioters went berserk during the inauguration and Madonna screamed about blowing up the White House?
What had he done in his first few days that prompted ex-Pentagon lawyer Rosa Brooks to write in Foreign Policy (“3 Ways to Get Rid of President Trump Before 2020”) an outline of how to destroy his presidency before it started by either the 25th Amendment, impeachment—or a military coup (cf. also the later August 2020 pre-election letter of retired officers Nagl and Yingling, calling on Gen. Milley to intervene following the election with the 82nd Airborne to remove Trump from office).
What had he done in his first few months in office in earn 58 House members voting to impeach him?
3) Who injured the country and the lives of its people more, the 4-years of Donald Trump or the 2.5 years of Joe Biden?
Who engineered the exempt crossing of 8-million illegal entrants that will have repercussions for decades? Who has been largely silent about nearly 100,000 annual fentanyl deaths and the direct role of an open border in them?
Who engineered the disastrous and deadly flight from Kabul, timed for the narcissistic public stunt of a cheap 20th-anniversary triumph celebration of 9/11—according to The Washington Post?
Who called the accidental killing of 10 civilians during the Kabul mess a “righteous strike”, or phoned his PLA counterpart to warn about his own commander in chief, or unlawfully hijacked the chain of command?
Who spiked fuel prices, interest rates, and inflation that have caused untold misery to millions of Americans?
Who is silent about the destruction of the criminal code in our major cities that has helped unleash an unprecedented crime wave?
That list of current catastrophes that go unnoticed could be expanded.
So yes, if these recent accusations about crude and cruel Trump private conversations are true, then let us all deplore what Donald Trump said in private to his closest aides and appointees.
But let us also consider that those who voice these expressions of outrage seem to stay silent about the concrete damage to our institutions and country that was neither rhetorical nor spontaneous—but all too real and planned.

WATCH: Fox News Gets Brutally Trolled by Conservative YouTuber Mark Dice While Covering Mass Shooting at Historically Black Morgan State University in Baltimore

As the Gateway Pundit previously reported, multiple people were shot at historically black Morgan State University in Baltimore Tuesday night.
At least five people were wounded during the shooting and police are reportedly looking for at least three shooters.
This is without question a horrific tragedy. But sometimes comic relief comes in the most unexpected of places.
Fox News was certainly on the receiving end of plenty Tuesday night. While they were covering the shooting, they got pranked by a man going by the name “Tyrone” who they thought was a student at Morgan State and a witness to the crime.
This wasn’t the case. “Tyrone” is actually a Tucker Carlson fan. He then proceeds to roast Fox News saying he and his friends watch Tucker Carlson on X since he is no longer with Fox News.
He then points out that Tucker is doing far better without the network and takes a shot at the corporate media.
Anchor Trace Gallagher was absolutely dumbfounded!

Gallagher: We’ve got “Tyrone” on the phone with us now. When you say poker game what exactly transpired?
“Tyrone”: Well, first of all, we were watching, we all get together every Tuesday night and watch Tucker Carlson’s show on X. We used to watch him on Fox News but obviously he’s not there no more.
And still being the most credible guy here in America, we always get together to watch Tucker Carlson and obviously he is doing better now because he is not with Fox News. But the corporate media always controls what the teleprompter readers are able to say and now…
Gallagher: Thank you Tyrone…clearly that was not a student at Morgan State University.
It turns out “Tyrone” is actually conservative commentator and Tucker fan Mark Dice.

HUGE: Missouri-Louisiana Lawsuit Against Censorship-Industrial Complex with Lead Plaintiff Jim Hoft WILL INCLUDE CISA Thanks to Missouri AG Andrew Bailey

Missouri AG Andrew Bailey, who is suing the Biden Regime, the FBI, CDC and Department of Homeland Security over their illegal violations of the 1st Amendment together with the Gateway Pundit , has obtained an injunction against the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency CISA prohibiting them from taking away our God-given right to free speech!
“BREAKING: We’ve just obtained an injunction against CISA, an agency within the Department of Homeland Security, that blocks them from violating the First Amendment rights of millions of Americans. The order also applies to the White House, Surgeon General, CDC, and FBI”, Missouri AG Andrew Bailey wrote on Twitter.
If you don’t remember, the Fifth Circuit already handed down a court order blocking the Biden Administration from silencing disfavored viewpoints.
CISA (Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency housed in DHS) was originally not included in the Fifth Circuit’s order.
— Attorney General Andrew Bailey (@AGAndrewBailey) October 3, 2023
Gateway Pundit is suing the federal government together with the Attorney Generals of Missouri and Louisiana, the Covid experts Dr. Jay Bhattacharya from Stanford and Dr. Martin Kulldorff from Harvard, authors of The Great Barrington Declaration, and others for violation of the First Amendment.
On Sept. 8, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the right of the plaintiffs to sue the Biden Regime, while exempting the Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency CISA, viewed by many as “the nerve center” of the unconstitutional public-private partnership to censor American citizens online, as the House Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government wrote:
“Founded in 2018, CISA was originally intended to be an ancillary agency designed to protect “critical infrastructure” and guard against cybersecurity threats. In the years since its creation, however, CISA metastasized into the nerve center of the federal government’s domestic surveillance and censorship operations on social media. By 2020, CISA routinely reported social media posts that allegedly spread “disinformation” to social media platforms. By 2021, CISA had a formal “Mis-, Dis-, and Malinformation” (MDM) team. In 2022 and 2023, in response to growing public and private criticism of CISA’s unconstitutional behavior, CISA attempted to camouflage its activities, duplicitously claiming it serves a purely “informational” role.”
On the 4th of July, Judge Terry Doughty granted our request for an injunction against the Biden Regime’s censorship machine, stating that “If the allegations made by Plaintiffs are true, the present case arguably involves the most massive attack against free speech in United States’ history. In their attempts to suppress alleged disinformation, the Federal Government, and particularly the Defendants named here, are alleged to have blatantly ignored the First Amendment’s right to free speech.”
CISA is the “nerve center” of the vast censorship enterprise, the very entity that worked with the FBI to silence the Hunter Biden laptop story.
— Attorney General Andrew Bailey (@AGAndrewBailey) October 3, 2023
On Oct. 3, the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals expanded its injunction issued in September to include CISA, ruling that it used frequent interactions with social media platforms “to push them to adopt more restrictive policies on election-related speech,” meaning that it likely violated the First Amendment when lobbying Silicon Valley companies to remove or suppress the spread of online content:
“The platforms’ censorship decisions were made under policies that CISA has pressured them into adopting and based on CISA’s determination of the veracity of the flagged information. Thus, CISA likely significantly encouraged the platforms’ content-moderation decisions and thereby violated the First Amendment.”
CISA is the “nerve center” of the vast censorship enterprise, the very entity that worked with the FBI to silence the Hunter Biden laptop story.
— Attorney General Andrew Bailey (@AGAndrewBailey) October 3, 2023
This means we are going to the Supreme Court against CISA.
Thanks to all our readers for their support in this historic battle for the freedom of our country.

Marjorie Taylor Greene Endorses Donald Trump for Speaker of the House: “We Can Make Him Speaker and Then Elect Him President! He Will MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

Rep. Taylor Marjorie Greene (R-GA) has publicly endorsed former President Donald J. Trump as her candidate for Speaker of the House.
On Tuesday, the House of Representatives voted 216-210 to remove McCarthy, making him the shortest-serving Speaker since 1876.
The vote was spearheaded by Florida Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz and saw a few conservatives joining Democrats in the unprecedented action. Among the Republicans voting for the removal were Reps. Andy Biggs of Arizona, Ken Buck of Colorado, Tim Burchett of Tennessee, Eli Crane of Arizona, Bob Good of Virginia, Nancy Mace of South Carolina, and Matt Rosendale of Montana.
Greene, a staunch supporter of Trump, outlined a comprehensive list of reasons for her endorsement, emphasizing Trump’s previous four-year record as President and his potential to bring transformative changes to the country.
“The only candidate for Speaker I am currently supporting is President Donald J. Trump,” Greene announced on Tuesday following McCarthy’s removal.
She went on to list a series of ambitious goals she believes Trump will achieve if elected as Speaker:
- End the war in Ukraine: Greene asserts that Trump has the diplomatic skills to bring an end to the ongoing conflict.
- Secure the border: A cornerstone of Trump’s previous administration, Greene believes he will finally achieve this long-standing goal.
- End the politically weaponized government: Greene accuses the current administration of using governmental power for political ends and believes Trump will put a stop to it.
- Make America energy independent again: Greene supports Trump’s previous efforts to make the U.S. less reliant on foreign energy.
- Pass legislation to stop transgender surgeries on kids and keep men out of women’s sports: A controversial point, but one that Greene firmly stands by.
- Support our military and police: Greene emphasizes Trump’s commitment to law enforcement and national defense.
- And more
Greene emphasized Trump’s “proven 4-year record as President of the United States of America,” citing it as a compelling reason for her endorsement.
She also highlighted that Trump received a record number of Republican votes of any Republican Presidential candidate, signaling his widespread popularity within the party.
According to Greene, not only can Trump be made Speaker, but he can also be re-elected as President. “We can make him Speaker and then elect him President! He will MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!” she concluded.
The only candidate for Speaker I am currently supporting is President Donald J. Trump.
He will end the war in Ukraine.
He will secure the border.
He will end the politically weaponized government.
He will make America energy independent again.
He will pass my bill to stop…
— Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (@RepMTG) October 4, 2023
MTG isn’t the only legislator advocating for Trump to assume the role of Speaker of the House. The Gateway Pundit reported that Congressman Troy Nehls (R-TX) took to Twitter to declare his intention to nominate former President Donald J. Trump for the position.
“Kevin McCarthy will NOT be running again as Speaker. I nominate Donald J. Trump for Speaker of the House.”
Kevin McCarthy will NOT be running again as Speaker.
I nominate Donald J. Trump for Speaker of the House.

J6 Political Prisoner Jonathan Munafo Will Be Homeless Following His Release, Please Help Out Jonathan If You Can
Jonathan Munafo was arrested after January 6 for taking a police officer’s shield out of an officer’s hands and striking him to stop him from beating an elderly man who was face down on the ground.
Jonathan is hoping for an opportunity to restart his life after his release and shared a letter with The Gateway Pundit.
Fellow Country Men and Women,
My name is Jonathan Munafo, Federal Registration #41444-509, DC-DOC #375910. I’m originally from the Cape Cod\ Plymouth Massachusetts area but have lived much of my life in the Adirondack Mountains & Capitol region of New York State. For roughly a year I traveled to President Trump’s rallies all over the country, supporting his re-election in 2020. As a “Front Row Joe” I would arrive at the venue before anyone else, many times days earlier than others ensuring a spot in the front row. I’m also a January 6th defendant who for a time early on was considered among the F.B.I.s “Top Ten Most Wanted Capitol Suspects”. From a Trump Rally ” Front Row Joe” to (according to creepy Joe) a danger to the United States even more radical than ISIS, this is my January 6th story.
Prior to J6 I owned and operated a small appliance repair service, worked in wedding\corporate off premise catering as well as a contractor preforming remodeling services to Dollar General stores nationwide. I started from nothing and was proud of the hard work, determination and success I accomplished as an owner of my own small business, the very backbone of our U.S. economy. However, thanks to the “plandemic” I lost my businesses. Surprisingly the large box stores were allowed to stay open…can you say Marxism? As a result I decided to use what little I had left in savings to travel the country attending Trump rallies. Thankfully I was able to support myself with my connections in contracting for Dollar General in nearly every state.
On January 4th I left the beautiful state of Florida to attend the “Stop the Steal” rally in DC. Along the way I encountered a woman who was upset with all of the Trump “flare” on my vehicle, including the American Flag I fly everywhere I go. She began pulling the flag in an effort to steal it. Little did I know that this encounter would be a prelude to events to come.
You can help Jonathan here.
I arrived in DC sometime in the very early hours of J6 then took a quick nap. When I woke up it was roughly 7am and the streets were already filling up fast with folks headed to the stage. As I made myself some coffee I began to feel somewhat anxious. Comparable to bringing a poor report card home as a child. You all know that feeling too I’m sure! I made my way to the Washington National Monument and observed this massive crowd working their way closer and closer to the main stage. When President Trump arrived thousands upon thousands began cheering at a volume and intensity I had not yet ever experienced even as a “Front Row Joe”.
As President Trump spoke I could tell something was very wrong. I walked back to my car when I heard that we would protest at the Capitol ” Peacefully and Patriotically” so I left my car and followed the crowd.
Prior to January 6th I attended both the November and December stop the steal rallies there in DC. At both events prior there was no issue to enter the Capitol Grounds. In fact, I recall people standing on the steps taking selfies. As I walked with the enormous crowd I never did see the bike style barricades that were later reported to exist, thus it never occurred to me we were entering “restricted grounds”.
While walking to the Capitol I felt that something really nefarious was happening. It was rather obvious to me that some folks were trying to instigate, agitate and motivate the crowd to violence. I also saw people changing their clothes while under some bushes. Although people changing clothes under bushes may sound like a conspiracy, much of what you may have heard was and is based in truth.
You can help Jonathan here.
I continued to walking and when I arrived at the west end there were thousands of people standing shoulder to shoulder. Then all of the sudden approximately 20 yards ahead of me people were being shot by the police even though the crowd was peaceful. It was reported later that the police were using ” less than lethal” munitions like rubber bullets and pepper balls as well as flash bang grenades directly in the crowd. It was then I saw some of the injured making their way back out of the crowd to get medical attention. It was both heartbreaking and sickening. These folks came out to “Peacefully and Patriotically” protest the stolen election, these folks did nothing wrong. I believe the vast majority of people who converged on the Capitol were motivated to keep moving forward by nefarious people shouting with bull horns. “We’re almost through, keep moving forward”. This was being shouted over and over again and again. I made my way to the tunnel entrance on the lower west terrace. It was then that I decided to record a clip. Looking around at the massive crowd I recorded the chant protestors were using, that being “We! The People! We! The People! The pressure of the crowd surging toward the tunnel entrance was so great I felt as if I was going to be crushed to death, breathless.
At this point I made the decision to leave. While walking through the crowd I observed a violent arrest being made of an elderly man. It was evident to me the man was unable to comply with the order to put his hands behind his back due to an injury. They beat this man mercilessly with a baton while he was face down and trying to comply with an order he physically couldn’t. After he was picked up by officers and escorted away I finally made it close enough to see this officer was handed a riot shield. Almost immediately I can be seen clearly on video hitting the officer’s helmet twice a ripping the shield out of his hands and into the hands of the crowd. I take full responsibility for my actions. For this offense the United States decided to charge me with a ten count indictment that includes assault on an officer and civil disorder.
As you already know there are no fair trials to be had for J6 defendants in DC. Upon advice of counsel it was recommended that we work with the prosecutor on a plea. After much back and forth “haggling” my team of attorneys was able to finally arrive at a plea that was acceptable. In short, I had two options. Option one would be go to trial and serve more time (possibly five more years) or option two which was to take a plea (which I did) an hope to be sentenced to time served which would be approximately two and a half years day for day.
You can help Jonathan here.
The way I’ve decided to view my incarceration has been to take things as they come, day by day and all the while inch my self closer to freedom once again. I have used my time wisely for the past two and a half years to better myself in many ways. Finding a path is easer than I thought. In keeping goal oriented I also wrote out a step by step 1,3,5, plan. (IE; one year plan, three year plan and a 5 year plan.). I also become fond of meditation. The practice as well as its origin is very interesting to me and I plan to continue my studies on this topic. With regard to my family and friends, a majority of them decided to part ways prior to J6 except for one true friend. I couldn’t have been blessed with anyone as sincere or as interested in my success.
To circle back and complete the story of how I arrived here at the DC jail, after J6 I planned to visit some girls in Oregon however, before I was able to make it I was rear ended by a drunk driver in Maryland. As a result I lost everything I owned and the vehicle was totaled. My car was then impounded but that is a story for another time. I made it back to Florida after some help from Trump supporters who came to Maryland from Davis California. On April 10 I believe it was when I first heard the F.B.I. was looking for me. I then approached the local police where I was staying and self -urrendered on April 13th. And that concludes my story.
Upon release I’m sickened to admit I’m both broke and homeless.
Please forgive me for being forward however I could really use some help from the J6 community. I’m not just looking for a handout but rather a hand up that will help me get established and working as soon as possible. I’m not sure what God has planned from here but my duty is to stay vigilant trusting he will lead at the right time. Jeremiah 29:11 says “For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord. Plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans to give you hope and a future”. Finally, in my travels I have found that the hardworking Americans are the citizens who are raising our future leaders. They share the same values our founding fathers spoke of and lived. I have every confidence these children love America and are being taught by parents and elders who truly care about the Truth. It was my experience meeting families all over the country that the kids are speaking about their concerns without looking at mom and dad for approval but rather spoke from a position of conviction and understanding beyond their years. This take away motivated me and gave hope for our future. Now I share that hope with you!
In closing, I’m reminded of Second Chronicles 7:14 which says, ” If my people who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and I will forgive their sin and heal their land.”
May God keep you and your loved ones safe during this chaotic time in our nations history. God bless you and God bless America.

Defense Attorneys Sound Alarm on ‘RECYCLED JURORS’ on J6 Trials: ‘WHAT’S GOING ON?’
Numerous defense attorneys representing January 6 defendants are perplexed in discovering that potential jurors are being recalled or “recycled.”
On Sept. 5, a day after Labor Day, defense attorneys discovered their potential jury pool consisted of jurors who were excused the week before.
“I have never seen this in all my years of practicing law.” defense attorney Steven Metcalf fumed while exiting the federal courthouse after jury selection of Zachary Alam’s trial.”Are there any jurors left in DC? What is going on here?”
The Gateway Pundit sat as the lone observer in the courtroom for nearly the entire duration of Alam’s 8-day trial and spent hours talking with Metcalf about this peculiar jury selection.
Repeatedly throughout Alam’s jury selection, Metcalf asked each potential juror that he was allowed to vet whether they recognized anyone else in the room.
By day 2, dozens of the potential jurors answered in the affirmative, referencing other individuals they convened with at the federal courthouse just a week prior when they were struck down for jury duty in other J6 cases.

Metcalf’s line of questioning confirming jurors are being “recycled” became a running joke in the courtroom.
“Do recognize anyone in this room,” Metcalf a woman who was later seated on the jury.
“Yes, I saw some of the people here last week when I was called for jury selection in another case,” she replied.
Conspicuously, one potential juror after another took the stand with the same story.
As Metcalf spoke to the approximate twentieth potential juror who confirmed they were at jury selection the week prior for another J6 trial, Judge Dabney Friedrich visibly restrained from bursting into laughter.

Neither Friedrich, the Marshalls nor the prosecutors could keep a straight face.
Jury selection is a big mystery amongst a litany of shocking aberrations of the application of the law in J6 trials.
Getting called for jury duty is a simple luck of the draw. Many Americans go through their lives never being summoned or answering a jury duty summons. Few are called repeatedly and actually answer. But for some reason, many in Washington DC are reporting for jury duty for two different trials two weeks in a row.
A computer randomly picks prospective jurors from the jury pool during a “Detailed Randomization Procedure,” according to the Jury Selection Plan for the United States District Court For the District of Columbia.
The alleged random selection process makes it unlikely that someone will get summoned to serve twice, comparable to winning the lottery multiple times.
Once an individual reports for service, their name is pulled from the jury pool for at least the next 12 months, even if the individual does not get placed on a jury.
According to § 11–1911. Length of service, of the Code of the District of Columbia:
In any twenty-four month period, an individual shall not be required to serve more than once as a grand or petit juror except as may be necessary by reason of the insufficiency of the master juror list or as ordered by the Court.
While jury duty is a civic requirement for all eligible citizens in the District Of Columbia, the state restricts how often you can be summoned for jury duty in order to ensure a fresh jury pool and prevent undue hardship by being summoned too frequently.
Similarly, the Virginia State Bar states, “You can be called for jury duty no more than once every three years.”
If a prospective juror is not selected to sit on the panel or struck down, they are deemed to have fulfilled service and are not required until summoned again.
Once an individual actually serves, the Jury Act also exempts an individual from federal jury service for the next two or three years, depending on the jurisdiction.
“Is jury selection as entirely random as the government claims or something else is at work here?” The Gateway Pundit asked Metcalf after observing the preposterous hilarity in the courtroom.
“Really, what’s going on is jurors were here last week,” the high-profile New York native explained in an exclusive interview with TGP. “Seven jury trials started yesterday, I went to other cases and there were attorneys complaining about the same thing.”
Bewildered, Metcalf broke out into a tune, singing the famous Marvin Gaye song, “What’s going on?”
“I went through 85 potential jurors,” he explained, “More than 20 people said they were here in this courthouse last week for jury selection. I identified 20, at least! Other attorneys identified more as well.
“Who shows up to jury selection on a Monday and gets denied on a Tuesday or Wednesday and then will actually show back up to the same courthouse, again, the following Tuesday?
“Please tell me… what’s going on? Do you not see a problem there? You get excused for jury duty, you’re supposed to be excused for a substantial period of time, not excused for five days during the holiday weekend. Investigate what is going on and find an expert.
“How long has this been going on? This is a huge problem. I’ve never seen this before.”
The District of Columbia is obviously running out of jurors, Metcalf surmised, calling attention to yet another smoking gun showcasing why every J6 trial should be relocated to a different jurisdiction. In the District of Columbia, the jury pool is already tainted with a 96 percent voting rate for Joe Biden, government employees and Antifa ideologues.
“They don’t have anyone else to call!” Metcalf admonished. “The Clerk’s office is not even going back a couple of years or months to find jurors — they have been going back to last week!
“Then, they even get wiser after each jury selection process,” he continued. “Potential jurors admitted on the stand that they started Googling the Jan. 6 cases that are listed on a calendar displayed in the hallway of the federal courthouse while waiting to be selected as a juror. They sit in a room with their devices for hours while they wait to be called in.”
If you Google January 6, you are likely to find Zachary Alam is one of the several January 6 defendants who stood beside Air Force veteran Ashli Babbitt when she was shot dead by Lt. Michael Byrd, who was promoted after the homicide that has yet to be fully investigated.

In footage from the scene, Babbitt punches Alam in the face before climbing on a window in the Speaker’s Lobby.
In defense of Alam, Metcalf zealously fought to call to the stand Lt. Michael Byrd and Officers McKenna and Tyson, the two officers who stood by beside Byrd as he shot Babbitt.
This request was denied on the morning Metcalf had to call his first witness in presenting his defense.
As Metcalf sounded the alarm on the smoking gun during jury selection in Alam’s case, various other jury selections were underway at the same in the courthouse.
Attorney Roger Roots revealed the same mysterious jury recycling conundrum that occurred during his client J6 defendant Ryan Zink’s trial.
It’s a bizarre trend, Roots warns.

“In fact, In the Zink trial, there were at least four or five in that jury pool who had been on juries for the January 6 cases,” Roots told TGP in an exclusive interview. “And, this is not the first time.
“They get struck down and get called back within days later. They get summoned to the courthouse and they’ve already been on juries — and for the same issues. So yeah, it’s a big problem.
The absurdity of the juror recycling “really supports the idea that there needs to be a change of venue for all these cases because the whole city is running out of potential jurors. Honestly, all these cases need to be tried elsewhere where there are bigger jury pools.”
Metcalf is known for representing other January 6 defendants Edward Jacob Lang, Dominic Pezzola, Daniel Christmann and Trennis Evans.
Roger Roots also defended Pezzola, the only Proud Boys acquitted of the seditious conspiracy charges.

In August, Pezzola was sentenced to 10 years in prison after being found guilty of damaging federal property and assault and robbery charges during his role in the Capitol riot. His co-defendants received the stiffest prison sentences handed to any January 6 defendant to date despite committing no violent crimes on January 6, 2021. Henry Enrique Tarrio was not in Washington DC on January 6, yet he was sentenced to 22 years while Ethan Nordean was sentenced to 18 years, Joseph Biggs to 17 years and Zachary Rehl to 15 years for walking through the Capitol Building for approximately 15 minutes.
Lang saved the lives of Tommy Tatum and J6 defendant Philip Anderson on January 6. He is seen in footage captured on multiple cameras pulling their lifeless bodies off the ground while they were being trampled and beaten by cops.

He also rendered aid to Roseanne Boyland as she lay unconscious after being beaten by cops.
Lang’s case will be the first J6 case to reach the Supreme Court as he seeks dismissal of the 1512, Obstruction of an Official Proceeding count, a crime that was not applied to protesters who stormed the Capitol buildings across the nation prior to Jan. 6.
“If you were looking for the greatest nefarious act of Biden’s DOJ, well you have now found it,” the 28-year-old political prisoner cautioned after catching wind of the foul play during Alam’s jury selection.
“The repercussions of this insane violation of January 6 defendant’s rights could rattle the core of the Department of Justice,” Lang told TGP in an exclusive interview. “Many cases that used recycled jurors should be completely thrown away. No more J6 trials can feasibly happen in Washington DC. The January 6ers deserve a change of venue.
The real question is how long does US Attorney’s Office Matthew Graves think they could get away with this incomprehensible aberration of defendants’ Constitutional Rights? The American people are now demanding answers, and quite frankly the deserve them.”
Dredging the bottom of the DC swamp in a solitary confinment cell, Lang launched the January 6 legal fund, assuring other political prisoners can afford adequate representation by conservative attorneys.
Please support the January 6 Legal Fund HERE to help J6 defendants secure competent private attorneys who uphold the US Constitution.

Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán Calls Kiev’s Quick Ascension to the EU ‘Unrealistic’ – Budapest Demands Right of Ethnic Hungarians in Ukraine to Use Their Language in School
Once again, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán is putting his national interests ahead of the plans of the EU.
This time, it involves the prospects of Ukrainian ascension to the European Union.
Orbán publicly cast doubt on the prospect of the European Union beginning negotiations any time soon for Ukraine to join the bloc, adding that it was ‘unrealistic’ to launch the process with a country that’s at war.
Ukraine was granted EU candidate status last year, in a rapid decision for the EU, known for its slow approach to expansion.
The European Council expects to begin negotiations on Ukraine’s accession in December.
Orbán reminded that an unanimity among the EU’s 27 members is required in order to admit a new country into the bloc.
The Hungarian parliament would also have to give the green light to Ukraine, which has ambitions to join the EU within two years.
Independent reported:
“’When I’m in the chamber, I don’t feel the insurmountable desire for the Hungarian parliament to vote for Ukraine’s membership of the European Union within two years. So I would be careful with these ambitious plans’, Orbán said.”
The eastern European country has a rocky relationship with the EU, having been sanctioned by for alleged rule-of-law violations and corruption.
Hungary is in a conflict with Kyiv over the rights of an ethnic Hungarian minority in western Ukraine, and has also maintained close relations with Russia.
“On Friday, Orbán said the EU ‘will have to answer very long and difficult questions until we get to the point where we can even decide whether to start negotiations’.
‘When we are discussing the future of Ukraine in Brussels in the autumn, we will not be able to avoid the question of whether we can think seriously about the membership of such a country’, he said. ‘Can we start negotiations with a country that is in a territorial war? We do not know the size of this country’s territory since it is still at war, and we do not know what its population is, because they are fleeing. … To admit a country without knowing its parameters would be unprecedented’.
On Monday, Orbán told the Hungarian parliament that his government would ‘not support Ukraine on any international issue’ until the language rights of the Hungarian minority in western Ukraine are restored.”
The EU countries will decide in December whether Ukraine will begin accession negotiations, but that would require the unanimous backing of all 27 members.
EU Diplomats have anticipated that Hungary may be an obstacle to the swift moving of the process.
Reuters reported:
“‘So I think we need to answer very long and difficult questions until we get to actually deciding about the start of accession talks’, he said.
Commenting on Orban’s remarks, Ukraine’s foreign ministry said it was positive ‘that the Hungarian Prime Minister is concerned about Ukraine’s accession to the European Union’.
‘We would like to inform that Ukraine has not changed its territory within its internationally recognized borders’, the ministry added.”
Orbán is defending the right of ethnic Hungarians to learn in their native language, after Kiev passed a 2017 law restricting the use of minority languages in schools.
