Israel May Soon Be at War With Hezbollah

U.S. officials are warning Hezbollah not to assume Washington can stop Israel from attacking them. They expect Israel to launch a significant offensive against Hezbollah across the Israel-Lebanon border soon. The U.S. stresses it will support Israel if Hezbollah retaliates, communicating this message indirectly since it doesn’t engage with Hezbollah, a proscribed terrorist organization, directly.

“Israel’s gotta do what they gotta do,” a Defense Department official granted permission to speak anonymously said.

Israel and Hezbollah have been embroiled in relatively low-level clashes since Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, with much of the border region being evacuated. U.S. officials fear a full-scale conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, which is stronger and better armed than Hamas and backed by Iran, could plunge the region into a wider war.

The Joe Biden regime is pledging to support Israel, including replenishing the Iron Dome and providing intelligence. If Israel faces a severe threat from Hezbollah, the U.S. may offer direct military support. However, U.S. officials are warning Israel they cannot stop Hezbollah strikes as effectively as they stopped Iranian strikes in April, with Hezbollah being far closer to the Jewish State geographically.

The U.S. intelligence community believes Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah does not want war, but the risk of miscalculation and escalation remains high.

Nasrallah is already threatening Cyprus, a European Union member which shares an island with two British Sovereign Base Areas and a Turkish puppet state, with war and an illegal migrant invasion for supporting Israel.

Despite the ongoing conflict in Gaza, Israeli leaders argue they need to act against Hezbollah to restore border security and allow displaced families to return home.

Good News for Bannon as Republicans Look Set to Nullify J6 Committee’s Work.

Chairman Barry Loudermilk of the House Administration Subcommittee on Oversight will submit an amicus brief to the Supreme Court on Wednesday, aiming to invalidate the January 6 Select Committee’s report against former White House Strategist Steve Bannon.

Loudermilk asserts the Committee failed to follow House rules, which mandated consultation with the “Ranking Member of the Minority” for depositions. The absence of a Republican Ranking Member allegedly rendered this process impossible, thereby invalidating the contempt charges against Bannon for not attending a deposition. Republican Rep. Liz Cheney as acting as Vice Chairman of the Committee, does not meet the legal requirement for consultation with a Ranking Member since she was selected by former Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Loudermilk will explain.

The House Administration Subcommittee on Oversight, led by Loudermilk, is also crafting legislation to nullify all the work conducted by the January 6 Select Committee. This development follows Bannon’s request to the Supreme Court for a delay on his four-month prison sentence for contempt of Congress, which he has been directed to commence by July 1.

“Over the past year and a half, my Committee has extensively reviewed and investigated the operations of Vice-chair Liz Cheney and Chair Bennie Thompson’s Select Committee on January 6th,” Loudermilk told the Daily Caller. “We have discovered they were not entirely forthright with the American people and exhibited a disregard for House rules and transparency.”

Speaker Johnson explained to Sean Hannity on Wednesday night that the J6 committee’s work was tainted, and used “nefarious” tactics to target political opponents such as Bannon and Trump aide Peter Navarro.

Additionally, Rep. Jim Banks of Indiana has urged Speaker Mike Johnson to support Bannon’s legal defense and file an amicus brief in support of Bannon’s pending appeal to the Supreme Court. Banks emphasized his backing for this action to delay Bannon’s incarceration.

AIPAC-Led Campaign Defeats Fire Alarm Puller Jamal Bowman.

Representative Jamaal Bowman of New York, a member of the House’s far-left “squad” and a vocal critic of Israel, has been defeated in the Democratic primary by Westchester County Executive George Latimer.

Bowman, who attracted national attention when he “accidentally” pulled a fire alarm in order to delay a vote in Congress, saw a record-breaking $16 million spent to unseat him.

Latimer, benefiting from robust financial backing, framed his campaign as a return to moderate politics.

The race highlighted the waning influence of progressive groups within the district. High-profile endorsements and campaign efforts from figures like Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Senator Bernie Sanders were not enough to counteract the well-funded opposition Bowman faced.

Latimer is poised to easily win the general election in the overwhelmingly Democratic district in November. The impact of the Bowman primary defeat could extend beyond just him. Pro-Israel groups are now looking to target other far-left incumbents, such as Representative Cori Bush of Missouri.

‘I Want You To Show Them’ — New Report Reveals Trump Told Lawyers to be Fully Transparent in Mar-a-Lago ‘Documents’ Case

Notes and audio recordings belonging to an attorney representing former President Donald J. Trump regarding the retention of potentially classified documents show the former President wanted full transparency and cooperation with the Biden Department of Justice (DOJ). Despite Trump’s efforts to comply with the department’s requests, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) raided the former President’s Mar-a-Lago residence in August 2022—just months after the recordings were made.

According to notes from a May 2022 meeting, Trump told his attorney, Evan Corcoran, “I’ve got nothing to hide. If they ask, I want you to show them.”  Trump also directed Corcoran to review the documents in his possession and hand over any classified materials to the DOJ. Additionally, the former President insisted his attorneys grant the DOJ access to any additional documents they wished to review.

‘IF YOU NEED ANYTHING, JUST ASK.’

Following Corcoran’s review of the boxes of White House materials that Trump had taken to Mar-a-Lago, a half-inch stack of documents determined to be still classified were placed in an envelope and bound with tape. Trump’s attorneys then contacted the DOJ to notify and arrange the return of the materials.

The Biden government dispatched Jay Bratt, the then deputy chief of the DOJ‘s National Security Division, to retrieve the documents. Upon his arrival at Trump‘s Palm Beach, Florida, residence, the former President surrendered the materials to Bratt. The former President was cordial, telling the DOJ officials, “I’m glad you’re here. I appreciate what you’re doing. If you need anything at all, just ask Evan.”

According to Corcoran’s notes, the former President—against his attorney’s advice—even went so far as to show Bratt and FBI agents present the storage vault where the documents had been kept.

FBI TAMPERED WITH EVIDENCE.

Rather than acknowledging Trump‘s cooperation, however, DOJ special prosecutor Jack Smith alleges the notes show that the former President intended to deceive the Biden government. Smith contends that the additional documents found during the FBI raid—which occurred two months after Trump met with Bratt—were also classified, suggesting the former President intended to obstruct justice.

However, the actual status of the documents the FBI seized during their raid on Mar-a-Lago is unclear, as Smith has now acknowledged that agents placed the classified cover sheets on the stacks of papers themselves prior to photographing them. Former President Trump‘s attorneys are now asking federal judge Aileen Cannon to dismiss the case due to FBI tampering with evidence and the withholding of the exculpatory notes from another federal judge who authorized the raid.

UK Govt Finally Admits Failure on Illegal Immigration

Michael Tomlinson, the British government minister responsible for illegal immigration, admits the government is failing to stop illegal aliens from crossing the English Channel in small boats. He claims the issue, which has badly damaged the Conservative (Tory) Party’s standing on immigration, will finally be resolved if they are reelected on July 4.

“If we vote for the Conservative Party, the planes are booked, the airstrip is ready, and the full deterrent effect will kick in,” Tomlinson claims, referring to the Rwanda policy, which would see boat migrants transported to asylum accommodation in the East African country.

However, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has allowed leftist judges to repeatedly block migrant flights to Rwanda, often citing European law the Conservatives have not repealed despite Brexit. Sunak has also suspended the implementation of the policy until after the July 4 snap election, which has led many to suspect he believes judges are poised to block it yet again.

‘HOW MUCH WORSE COULD IT BE?’

On Tuesday, Reform Party leader Nigel Farage watched a boatload of migrants that will take the number of Channel crossings since Sunak became Prime Minister to over 50,000 being escorted into British waters by a French vessel.

Farage observed, “128,000 people have come, 90 percent of them young men… from areas plagued by terrorism, gang crime, [and] with attitudes towards women that we would find completely unacceptable. I mean, how much worse could it be under Labour?”

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer, projected to win the snap election with a large majority, has vowed to scrap the Rwanda policy.

Farage’s Reform Party is polling in second place nationally, ahead of the Conservatives. Due to the nature of the British electoral system, Reform is unlikely to win as many seats as the governing party, but Farage believes he can establish a parliamentary “bridgehead” from which he can challenge Labour in 2029.

Now a Tawdry Election Betting Scandal Has Gripped the UK Election

An insider-knowledge betting scandal is tainting the British general election. Senior Conservative Party figures—and even some police officers—stand accused of using inside info to place bets on the election date shortly before it was announced by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.

Sunak’s Parliamentary Private Secretary (PPS) Craig Williams, also a parliamentary candidate, admits placing a £100 (~$128) bet at 5-1 odds on Sunak calling the election for July 4. The Gambling Commission is investigating him, leading to his suspension as a Conservative candidate—though it’s too late to remove him from the ballots.

He insists he “committed an error of judgment, not an offense” and “intend[s] to clear [his] name.”

The Gambling Commission is also investigating Laura Saunders, another candidate, suspecting she learned the election date from her husband, Tony Lee, the Conservative Party’s director of campaigns. The Commission is also probing Lee. The party has suspended Saunders along with Willams.

A more comprehensive investigation now encompasses a significant number of candidates, candidates’ relatives, and candidates’ friends. Data analysis shows a highly suspicious surge in election day bets just before Sunak announced the date.

Several police officers are implicated in the scandal, with one of Sunak’s close protection officers becoming the first of six officers placed under investigation. Authorities arrested this officer for misconduct in public office, with some questioning why he is facing harsher treatment than the politicians suspected of wrongdoing.

Efforts by Conservatives to reap relatively small sums of money from the election as they face a landslide defeat have further damaged their public reputation. Nigel Farage’s Reform Party leads the Conservatives nationally.

49 States Are Now Supplying ‘Non-Citizens’ With Voter Registration Forms.

Illegal aliens and other “non-citizens” can receive voter registration forms without needing to show proof of citizenship in at least 49 states. They can use these forms to access welfare benefits and obtain driver’s licenses and mail-in ballots. Only Arizona has passed a law preventing this—but it applies only to state forms, not federal ones.

The National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) of 1993 mandates that states facilitate voter registration at the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and welfare offices. These agencies must provide voter registration forms alongside application papers. Without a federal law requiring proof of citizenship for voter registration forms, migrants can simply claim to be U.S. citizens to register to vote, easily bypassing the official ban on non-citizens voting.

The House Administration Committee has approved the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act to combat this. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) also emphasizes the need for increased enforcement measures. However, with foreign aid and spending bills desired by the Democrat-controlled Senate and the White House already passed, the GOP has little chance of compelling them to pass new election integrity bills.

Federal prosecutions, state investigations, and audits reveal numerous non-citizens registered to vote. Former Federal Election Commission (FEC) member Hans von Spakovsky highlights various instances of non-Americans voting illegally in elections at different levels.

Polling suggests at least a fifth of mail-in ballots in 2020 were tainted by fraud, compromising the legitimacy of an election that came down to a few thousand votes in a handful of states.

Why Did Joe Biden Remortgage His Properties 35 Times?

Joe and Jill Biden have tapped two Delaware properties for $4.2 million in cash since 1975. According to a report, the Bidens refinanced the mortgages on the two homes at least 35 times over the past four decades, negotiating a new mortgage or line of credit about every 17 months. The number of refinancing deals sheds further light on the Biden family’s business practices and cash flows—and raises questions regarding whether the powerful Delaware Democrats benefited from banks bending their lending rules.

Typically, mortgage lenders have a “seasoning” requirement, which limits a borrower’s ability to refinance their mortgage every six months. The Biden family, however, appears to have been able to waive this waiting period on at least a handful of occasions over the years. Additionally, lenders typically only allow borrowers to renegotiate only 80 to 90 percent of their home value as part of a cash-out-refinance. This should mean the amount of money the Bidens could pull from their properties after each subsequent refinancing was drastically limited unless they accessed other income to reduce the loan‘s principle.

Joe Biden sold the first of his two properties—a home in Wilmington, Delaware—in 1996. That home had at least 15 mortgages and lines of credit attached to it. Consequently, Biden purchased his second Delaware home in the same year and has refinanced the property at least 20 times. The second property still has an outstanding $541,000 mortgage.

In addition to the concerns regarding the ethics of the loan refinancing deals Biden secured, the mortgage arrangements also raise questions as to why the Biden family—with its estimated $10 million net worth—would need such frequent access to additional funds. Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden, remain under Congressional investigation over their family’s foreign business dealings.

Germany’s Political Class RAPIDLY Backpedals From Ukraine Support.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz admits his government’s support is crashing in part because it is supporting the NATO proxy war with Russia in Ukraine. Scholz says voters harmed by dueling sanctions have shown their discontent “in the election results”—but he insists there is “no alternative” to the current policy.

The anti-mass migration, eurosceptic Alternative for Germany (AfD) placed above Scholz’s Social Democrats in the European Parliament elections, as well as the far-left Greens and neoliberal Free Democrats who make up the incumbent coalition government.

The AfD is especially dominant in the former East Germany, where the Social Democrats are polling as low as seven percent ahead of regional elections in September. Scholz says the prospect of AfD state premiers is “very depressing.”

The notionally center-right Christian Democratic Union (CDU), formerly led by Angela Merkel, appears more willing to shift its position on Ukraine. Current leader Friedrich Merz, formerly a war hawk, is now lobbying for peace talks, saying, “We must see that we open up possibilities for how to bring this conflict to an end at some point.”

Polls project Merz to replace Scholz as Chancellor after the German federal elections in 2025.

Scholz also expressed some regret over the German government’s draconian crackdown on citizens during the Chinese coronavirus pandemic.

“There were a few decisions that were over the top,” he now admits, citing sweeping school closures and a ban on forest walks.

Biden Govt Used J6 & Mar-a-Lago Raid To Justify MORE Spying on Political Opponents

America First Legal has published documents revealing that the Department of Homeland Security’s intel group advocated spying on Americans critical of the government post-January 6th.

The Homeland Intelligence Experts Group initially considered it “inappropriate” to gather intel on Americans before January 6.

However, internal meeting notes later showed discussions about expanding efforts to monitor individuals deemed Domestic Violent Extremists (DVEs), many of whom were described as supporters of the former president, using January 6th as a catalyst.

Members of the Homeland Intelligence Experts Group also called for federal monitoring of certain websites as potential domestic extremism threats.

They allegedly urged DHS intelligence and analysis to employ practices that even the FBI purportedly lacks authority.

The FBI raid on former President Donald J. Trump’s Florida residence, Mar-a-Lago, was cited in the documents as a reason to justify expanding their activities, citing potential violent reactions to the raid.

America First Legal filed a lawsuit against DHS in November, prompting the Biden government to agree to disband the Homeland Intelligence Experts Group, which included former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and former CIA Director John Brennan.

The legal team highlighted that nearly 98 percent of the group’s participants favored Democrats in their political donations. America First Legal has pledged to release additional documents as part of its Deep State Diaries series.

Capitol Hill Police Chief Steven Sund revealed to Tucker Carlson last year that members of the DHS were among the crowd on January 6, with at least 20 members of Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) present undercover, claiming the number to be remarkably high.
