Prosecutors Want 6-Month Sentence for ‘Unique’ Ray Epps.

Federal prosecutors are recommending a mere six-month prison sentence for controversial Jan 6 defendant Ray Epps. Set to be sentenced next week, Epps submitted a guilty plea for a slap-on-the-wrist misdemeanor charge in September, despite having claimed to have “orchestrated” the violence in 2021.

Prosecutors filed a sentencing memo on Tuesday arguing that Epps should receive just six-months for his attempts to provoke the storming of the Capitol building. Other Jan 6th prisoners have suffered years in jail, including solitary confinement, already. Some are facing decades in prison.

Epps was widely suspected of being an agent provocateur working on behalf of the authorities, but prosecutors denied this, stating: “Other than his four years in the Marines, Epps has never been a federal agent.”

Prosecutors also say Epps attributed the rioting to undercover Antifa members in the sentencing memo.

Last year, Epps launched a defamation lawsuit against Fox News, alleging that the network and its former host, Tucker Carlson, presented him as a key instigator of Jan 6, damaging his reputation and livelihood.

Former Capitol Hill Police Chief Steve Sund, however, has said Carlson was not “crazy” to question to question Epps’s role on Jan 6, adding that it also “raises concern for me”.

POISONING THE BLOOD: Couriers Caught with 62 Pounds of Fentanyl at AZ Border, Made ‘2 to 3 Trips a Month’.

Two “cash couriers” have been indicted in Arizona on charges of conspiracy, importation, and possession with intent to distribute fentanyl after being caught with 62 pounds of the deadly synthetic drug at the Dennis DeConcini port of entry in Nogales.

Jocelinne Guadalupe Carrillo Rivera and Perla Marivy Gomez Galvez have admitted that they traveled from Phoenix to Mexico with tens of thousands of dollars for a “coordinator” two or three times a month, in exchange for a small cut of the money.

They claimed they did not know their car was being loaded up with fentanyl, responsible for 73,654 deaths in the United States in 2022 – though they confessed they suspected it was happening.

News of the indictments follows confirmation that U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) seized 854.07 pounds of crystal meth, 164.72 pounds of speed, and 165.34 pounds of cocaine at the border in Laredo, Texas, earlier this month, highlighting the growing scale of the drugs crisis on the southern border.

Presidential candidate Donald Trump has strikingly warned that the drugs and disease flowing across the Mexican frontier amid an unprecedented migrant crisis are “poisoning the blood” of the country, earning criticism from leftist media but plaudits from voters.

4 Canadian Churches Burned Before Christmas.

Four churches were torched in Alberta, Canada in recent weeks, with the latest immolation occurring just days before Christmas. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) are investigating the arson attacks.

The fires began in Barrhead, where St. Mary Abbots Anglican church and St. Aidan’s Church, both historic mainstays of the community, were destroyed on December 7th.

The spree continued with the burning of St. Gabriel Catholic Mission in Janvier on December 15th. This was followed by the suspected arson of a Seventh-Day Adventist Church in Beiseker on December 20th.

“My thoughts are with the Seventh Day Adventist community in Beiseker, AB mourning the loss of their church at the hands of an arsonist,” commented Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre. “This is the 4th church in 2 weeks to be targeted by acts of violent anti-Christian hatred.”

Canada saw a spate of church burnings in 2021. These were sparked by claims “mass graves” of Native American children had been discovered at former residential schools. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau appeared to give some tacit endorsement to the arson attacks.

“I understand the anger that’s out there against the federal government, against institutions like the Catholic church; it is real and it is fully understandable given the shameful history,” he said.

As of August of 2023, however, no human remains had been found at any of the supposed “mass graves”.

POISONING THE BLOOD: $10.2M of Meth & Coke Seized at US Border.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has seized 854.07 pounds of crystal methamphetamine, 164.72 pounds of powdered methamphetamine, or speed, and 165.34 pounds of cocaine at the World Trade Bridge in Laredo, Texas.

The narcotics, with an estimated street value of $10,298,520, were uncovered when a CBP officer brought in sniffer dogs to inspect a 2001 Freightliner tractor-trailer, which was supposedly transporting cut flowers.

“CBP is proud of the work our frontline officers do to ensure the safety and wellbeing of our communities. This significant seizure is an example of ongoing operational efforts conducted daily to protect our borders,” commented Port Director Alberto Flores.

The drugs find lends credence to Donald Trump’s warning, first reported by The National Pulse, that America’s southern border crisis is “poisoning the blood of our country.”

While the former president’s enemies have tried to paint the comments as racial, allies such as Senator J.D. Vance have pointed out it is “obvious that he was talking about the very clear fact that the blood of Americans is being poisoned by a drug epidemic.”

The 45th President also highlighted the danger illegal immigration poses to public health in terms of disease, with border officials having already identified the likes of tuberculosis, syphilis, and dengue fever among illegal aliens.

The enormous scale of the border crisis is straining officials’ resources at the frontier, making it less likely drugs shipments like the one intercepted at Laredo will be discovered.

NYC Career Criminal Stabs 2 Teen Girls on Christmas, Yelling ‘I Want All White People Dead’, After Repeatedly Being Released Thanks to AG Letitia James.

Career criminal Steven Hutcherson, 36, stabbed two girls aged 14 and 16 on Christmas morning, after being refused service at the Grand Central Dining Concourse in New York City.

Hutcherson, who is black, declared, “I want to sit next to the crackers” after staff told him he could not occupy a table at the Tartinery café-bar without ordering anything. He soon turned his ire on the two girls and their parents, who were tourists from South America.

Returning with a knife, Hutcherson reportedly yelled, “I want all the white people dead,” before he stabbed the 16-year-old in the back, damaging her lungs. He then plunged the blade into her 14-year-old sister’s thigh. Armed transit police were on the scene in under a minute, but he avoided being shot by dropping the weapon as soon as they appeared. Both victims were hospitalized, but have since been discharged.

Hutcherson has 17 prior arrests. He was charged with showing up at a police station in July with a dagger and a switchblade and scuffling with officers. He has also been charged with causing $81,000 in damages during a rampage at the Bergdorf Goodman department store in Manhattan in October. He only received 15-day sentences for these crimes, however, thanks to New York’s soft-on-crime Attorney General Letitia James.

As recently as November, he was charged after threatening to shoot a man and allegedly brandishing a firearm. He was found with a knife when police apprehended him, but was let off with a conditional discharge.

“They shouldn’t have let him out [of jail]. I don’t believe it,” said the victim in that case after being told about the stabbings.

Donald Trump has accused New York prosecutors of being overly focused on pursuing him through the courts for political reasons, as the Big Apple becomes increasingly lawless.

Pornhub Parent Firm Arraigned, Admits to ‘Receiving Proceeds of Sex Trafficking’.

Aylo Holdings S.A.R.L. (formerly MindGeek S.A.R.L.), parent company to Pornhub.com, has been held “accountable for its role in hosting videos and accepting payments from criminal actors who coerced young women into engaging in sexual acts on videos that were posted without their consent” by the Justice Department.

“Motivated by profit, Aylo Holdings knowingly enriched itself by turning a blind eye to the concerns of victims who communicated to the company that they were deceived and coerced into participating in illicit sexual activity,” said Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Assistant Director-in-Charge James Smith.

Pornhub has accepted the charges against it, entering into a so-called deferred prosecution agreement which will involve the imposition of a monitor for three years and payments to both the U.S. government and “individuals adversely affected by the underlying sex trafficking.”

The payment to the government will be relatively light, at $1,844,952.83. The Justice Department did not disclose the sums to be paid to its victims.

Pressure to take action against the pornographer initially came from regular people, with over a million signing a petition to shut down the site for hosting footage of sex trafficking victims.

Hunter to Be Arraigned on 9-Counts of Tax Crimes, Indictment on Jan 11.

Hunter Biden will be arraigned on nine federal tax charges in Los Angeles on January 11th. Magistrate Judge Alka Sagar will preside over the hearing.

Prosecutor David Weiss alleges President Joe Biden’s son, 53, “engaged in a four-year scheme to not pay at least $1.4 million in self-assessed federal taxes he owed for tax years 2016 through 2019,” and “spent millions of dollars on an extravagant lifestyle at the same time he chose not to pay his taxes.”

Hunter’s legal team has indicated he will fight the charges. “Based on the facts and the law, if Hunter’s last name was anything other than Biden, the charges in Delaware, and now California, would not have been brought,” claims attorney Abbe Lowell.

In fact, Hunter was originally offered an extremely generous “sweetheart deal” in Delaware. This would have seen him receive a slap on the wrist for the alleged tax crimes, to which he intended to plead guilty, with separate gun charges essentially dropped altogether. He would also have been granted sweeping immunity from a range of other potential charges.

This deal unraveled under scrutiny from Judge Maryellen Noreika, however, resulting in Hunter pleading not guilty.

WATCH: Anti-Israel Protestors Clash with NYPD While Mobbing Grand Central, Penn Station, and Moynihan Train Hall.

Anti-Israel protestors targeting New York City transport hubs clashed with police on several occasions on Monday evening. The so-called “global strike for Gaza and all of Palestine” targeted Grand Central Station, the Port Authority Bus Terminal, Penn Station, and the Moynihan Train Hall.

Demonstrators infiltrated the concourse in Moynihan and caused disruption for would-be travelers, in part by staging Islamic prayers. Bus services were disrupted as they marched down 42nd Street between 6th Avenue and 8th Avenue.

Elsewhere, controversial actor Alec Baldwin was caught up in the protest, with police having to separate him from the mob after he refused to condemn Israel and told protestors to stop asking him “stupid questions”.

Scuffles between protestors and police broke out at several locations, with reports of an unspecified number of arrests. Demonstrators can be seen shouting “f*** you!” and “f*** the police!” in footage of the altercations, and jostling and heckling officers in an effort to make them release demonstrators who were being arrested.

FBI Agent Behind Trump Russia Hoax Jailed for 4 Years.

Former Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) special agent Charles McGonigal has been sentenced to over four years in prison. The U.S. District Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York said he had been supplying information to a Russian oligarch.

McGonigal, 55, was handed a 50-month jail term for his interactions with Oleg Deripaska in 2021. As part of a plea agreement, McGonigal acknowledged he received $17,500 from Deripaska.

The FBI “spy tracker” is perhaps best known for his work in helping launch the Russia hoax against President Donald Trump. McGonigal was responsible for much of the early work that led to the opening of the Crossfire Hurricane investigation.

U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said McGonigal “violated the trust his country placed in him by using his high-level position at the FBI to prepare for his future in business.”

“Once he left public service, he jeopardized our national security,” Williams added.

McGonigal said he was “deeply remorseful”. He added that he took “full responsibility” and claimed he “never intended to hurt the U.S., FBI, or my family.”

REVEALED: Hunter Biden’s China-Linked Business Made Direct, Monthly Payments to Joe Biden.

Representative James Comer and the House Oversight Committee have released bank records showing “direct monthly payments” to Joe Biden by the China-linked Owasco PC, his son Hunter’s business entity.

“President Joe Biden claimed there was an absolute wall between his official government duties and his families influence-peddling schemes. This was a lie,” said Rep. Comer in a video statement. “Now, Hunter Biden’s legal team and the White House’s media allies claim Hunter’s corporate entities never made payments directly to Joe Biden. We can officially add this latest talking point to the list of lies,” he continued.

Comer revealed the Committee had uncovered direct payments from Owasco to the elder Biden after subpoenaing bank records.

“Owasco PC made direct monthly payments to Joe Biden. This wasn’t a payment from Hunter Biden’s personal account, but an account for his corporation that received payment from China and other shady corners of the world,” Comer stressed.

“At this moment, Hunter Biden is under investigation by the Department of Justice for using Owasco PC for tax evasion and other serious crimes,” he noted.

“Joe Biden knew about, participated in, and benefited from his family’s influence-peddling schemes,” Comer emphasized, discussing how the then-Vice President was dialed into Hunter’s business meetings.
