When do we Finally Call Bribery Bribery and Treason Treason?

Harold Pease, Ph.D.

Evidence against Joe Biden is coming out like a flood from multiple sources including the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability. But when do we finally call bribery bribery and treason treason? The FBI does not investigate, the DOJ does not prosecute, the Deep State media (the vast majority of the establishment news) does not report, and the Democrat Party does not condemn it’s president on the flood of evidence pouring out the last 30 days. Silence or inaction does not disprove evidence ignored. The crimes associated with the 2020 election Coup d’état and the Biden Crime family corruption are at least a hundred times worse than Watergate.

This column limits itself to recent Oversight Committee revelations. We published on previous news breaks on Committee findings, thus reviewing them might be helpful as a prelude to this column; see “House Finds Biden used over 20 shell Companies to hide money from China,” “With Treason Documented, When do the Arrests Begin?,” “Biden Family made Millions from Influence Peddling,” “Biden Family’s CCP Connections and $250,000 Payoff Wired to Delaware Home.” One ignorant on this topic is so by choice.

The House Oversight Committee’s published copy of the $40,000 check completing the laundered money trail from China to former Vice President Joe Biden. If a laundered check processed through secret Trump shell companies resulted in a personal check to Trump this would result in 24 hour news coverage for days and would certainly be considered bribery and treason as well. Biden “exposed himself to future blackmail and put America’s interests behind his own desire for money,” the Committee found.

This piece is yet another Biden money trail finding. This one proves Joe, as “the big guy” in the Biden crime family operation, received 10% of the profits as Hunter had previously claimed. On November 1st the Committee “released a video and bank records memorandum revealing how Joe Biden received $40,000 in laundered China money from the account of his brother, James Biden, and his sister-in-law, Sara Biden, in the form of a personal check.”

This money trail, the Committee attests “begins in July 2017 when Hunter Biden demanded payment from his Chinese Communist Party (CCP) linked associate. On July 30, 2017, Hunter Biden sent a message to Raymond Zhao—a CEFC associate—demanding a $10 million dollar capital payment and claimed his father, Joe Biden, was sitting in the room. CEFC is a Chinese energy company linked to the CCP. The Biden’s began working with CEFC when Joe Biden was Vice President” under Barrack Obama.

“On August 8, 2017, Northern International Capital, a Chinese company affiliated with CEFC, sent $5 million to Hudson West III, a joint venture established by Hunter Biden and CEFC associate Gongwen Dong. That same day, Hudson West III sent $400,000 to Owasco, P.C., an entity owned and controlled by Hunter Biden. On August 14, 2017, Hunter Biden wired $150,000 to Lion Hall Group, a company owned by President Biden’s brother James and sister-in-law Sara Biden. On August 28, 2017, Sara Biden withdrew $50,000 in cash from Lion Hall Group. Later the same day, she deposited it into her and James Biden’s personal checking account. On September 3, 2017, Sara Biden cut a check to Joe Biden for $40,000 for a “loan repayment” (“Comer Reveals How Joe Biden Received Laundered China Money,” November 1, 2023). Ten percent of the $400,000 to Owasco, is $40,000. Joe Biden personally profited from Hunter’s family business dealings from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). The money trail ended in Joe’s wallet.

On the check was written “loan repayment,” probably a part of the camouflage of the money as no evidence is yet found that James owed his brother Joe $40,000. To this James Comer, Oversight Committee Chairman wrote, “But even if this $40,000 check was a loan repayment from James Biden, it still shows how Joe benefited from his family cashing in on his name – with money from China no less. Without his family peddling his name and his son threatening a CEFC associate with consequences that he said Joe Biden knew about, James wouldn’t have had the money to write the $40,000 check to his brother Joe.”  BINGO!!!

The House Oversight Committee’s graph detailing Joe Biden’s influence peddling for money from a Chinese company to a Hunter Biden / China Joint Venture with associate Gongwen Dong, linked with the China Communist Party (CCP), to a Hunter Biden entity, then to a James and Sara Biden entity then a personal check to Joe Biden for $40,000—his 10%, as “the big guy,” of this $400,000 business deal. The amount would vary for other “deals” made with China or at least four other countries known to have worked similar “deals” with the Biden’s.

Comer then added, “It’s also worth remembering that Biden family efforts to secure millions from this Chinese company began when Joe Biden was still Vice President. In taking funds sourced to a CCP-linked company that wanted to advance China’s interests, Joe Biden exposed himself to future blackmail and put America’s interests behind his own desire for money” (Ibid.). This is certainly bribery and likely treason as well.

Other compelling evidence against Joe Biden also surfaced in the last 30 days. The National Archives (NARA) was forced by a FOIA to surrender “4,243 emails to/from Hunter Biden; 19,335 emails to/from the domains @rosemontseneca.com and @senecaga.com; 1,751 emails to/from Jim Biden;, and 3,738 emails to/from domain @lionhallgp.com. In addition, it documents that “Joe Biden’s Vice Presidential Office Exchanged nearly 20,000 Emails with Hunter Biden’s Investment Firm, AFL [America First Legal] Says,” (By James Lynch The Daily Caller). So much for Joe Biden not knowing anything about his son’s business dealings. He participated with him and them to dish out government secrets for sale and profit.

Also, shockingly disclosed by NARA, “Biden sent or received up to 82,000 pages worth of private emails while serving as Barack Obama’s vice president, as part of a lawsuit. The Archives revealed that the trove of correspondence spanned all eight years of Biden’s vice presidency and included messages to or from three [Joe Biden’s] shadow email addresses: ‘robinware456@gmail.com,’ ‘JRBWare@gmail.com’ and ‘Robert.L.Peters@pci.gov,’ according to a joint filing with the Georgia-based Southeastern Legal Foundation” (“Biden exchanged up to 82K pages of emails under pseudonyms while VP: lawsuit,” By Josh Christenson, New York Post, Oct. 31, 2023). The fake Biden name, Robert L. Peters, was used the most to hide his nefarious purposes. President Obama had to have known of the deceit.

So when do we finally call bribery bribery and treason treason? The House Committee on Oversight and Accountability just did—providing a money trail from Communist China into the pocket of Joe Biden hiding both under 20 secret shell companies, hidden emails, and fake names.

Democrats Soon Likely to Oust Biden by the 25th Amendment

By Harold Pease, Ph.D.

Democrats trapped themselves with White House resident Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. She is more unpopular than he and neither is presently electable without cheating surpassing the scale of what they did in 2020. That they are in deep trouble is becoming more obvious as the House Oversight Committee pours out evidence that a Biden crime family exists and Biden is guilty of bribery and likely treason. Democrats have no one with a national audience in the wings except possibly Michelle Obama less than a year before the next presidential election. They do not want their man impeached as that will bring shame and national attention to both crimes mentioned and destroy their party but despite enormous pressure for Biden to resign or at least not run in 2024, he refuses. Still, his corruption as exposed has made him an extremely serious liability.

This New York Times POLL conducted through Siena College of 3, 662 registered voters from October 22 to November 3, 2023 showing Biden behind in 5 of 6 swing states has sent the Deep State into depression. They know they cannot win in 2024 with Biden–even with serious cheating like 2020. This could trigger there removal of him through the 25th Amendment. I knew the poll existed but on the Internet it was very difficult to find buried among polls of 2016 and 2020 of the swing states with no dates.

Republicans do not want to impeach Biden either. They have him right where they want him. Never destroy an enemy in the process of destroying itself. They are having a field day watching him do so. Their impeachment inquiry could last until November 5, 2024. Republicans have no incentive to slow or stop the incriminating evidence flowing out against Biden because they know it exposes Barack Obama and the entire Deep State as well. But they have a second reason for not hurrying the process. Only 16% of Republicans still believe that Biden was elected without cheating therefore he is not the “real” president—it was a Coup d’état. Impeaching him suggests he rightfully held the office. How can you impeach someone never really elected—he only stole the office?

Thus far Biden has not used Section 3 of Amendment 25 to declare himself temporarily unfit for office. It reads, “Whenever the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate [currently Patty Murray of Washington, since January 3, 2023] and the Speaker of the House of Representatives [currently Mike Johnson from Louisiana, since October 25, 2023] his written declaration that he is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, and until he transmits to them a written declaration to the contrary, such powers and duties shall be discharged by the Vice President [Kamala Harris] as Acting President.”

If Biden refuses to declare himself unfit for office but is viewed unfit by those serving with him, Section 4 of Amendment 25 allows Vice President Harris and those serving with him to do so for him. It reads: “Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.” Thus far Congress has not provided any other body to make this declaration.

Biden has shown no interest in declaring himself unfit thus is running out the clock, Harris and et. may have to do so for him. This would advantage the Democrat Party as it forces his ouster without a Senate trial establishing guilt or innocence for either bribery or treason and the Deep State media would cease any coverage of these transgressions as though they never happened.

Comer’s House Oversight Committee keep unloading documentation of both bribery and treason on the part of the Biden criminal family especially Joe as the “big guy”. Especially concerning is the amount of China money laundered through the Chinese Communist Party from the Biden’s influence peddling (the money trail). The Deep State media, FBI, and DOJ appear complicit in this; instead targeting parents at school board meetings opposed to critical race theory.

Later, should Biden again consider himself fit to resume his duties he simply writes these two office holders again with “his written declaration that no inability exists,” [and he] resume[s] “the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty-eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty-one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty-one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two-thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office.”

There exists no time limit in the Amendment for the removed president to prove his ability to govern so Harris would remain Acting President, unless successfully challenged through the remainder of the Biden term as described. She would never be the President unless she ran for the office in 2024, perhaps against a reinstated Biden. But her own party does not want her and her office as vice president would never be filled while the competency of the president was in question. Biden, under the stigma of poor health during his first term, would not be electable to his own party.

A year from now Donald Trump will be the existing president even if not inaugurated until January 20, 2025. Michelle remains my best guess for the Democrat contender because of the above and name recognition, coupled with a black “woman” Michelle ousting another black woman Kamala does not violate any Democrat Party ethos as would a white, male Gavin Newsome. Still, Michelle cannot successfully compete with the far more powerfully emerging Trump and all the now known, and yet to be revealed Barack Obama Administration corruption from now till then. Even the New York Times admits Trump is ahead in 5 of the 6 battle ground states. No one will pay much attention to Harris as the “Acting President.” It is my view that neither Biden or Harris will have full terms as president. This even more so if the irrefutably evidence Trump will be presenting in his J6 trial shows that Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Biden and Harris were engaged in the 2020 Coup d’état and thus treason.

We must Never Forget the Pilgrim’s Failed Socialist Experiment

By Harold Pease Ph.D.

Few realize that New England’s first form of government under the Pilgrims was communalism (socialism) where “each produced according to his ability and each received according to his needs,” applied in practice more than two centuries before Karl Marx first penned the above quote.  The result, “share the wealth,” then and now was, and always will lead to shared poverty.

Socialism made strong men lazy!!

William Bradford, Plymouth colony’s governor its first 30 years, wrote of the agreement between the 102 Pilgrim Mayflower passengers and the financial “Adventurers” in his book Of Plymouth Plantation.  He noted that the seven-year contract signed July 1, 1620, before leaving Plymouth England, stipulated that the Pilgrims were to pool, for common benefit, “all profits and benefits that are got by trade, traffic, trucking, working, fishing, or any other means of any person or persons…”  It further noted “that at the end of the seven years, the capital and profits, viz. the houses, lands, goods and chattels, be equally divided betwixt the Adventurers and Planters…” 

During this time the colonists were to “have their meat, drink, apparel, and all provisions out of the common stock and goods of the said colony.”  It doesn’t get more socialistic than this because the government divvied out the goods and loafers received the same as those who worked.

The first two years the result was shortages and starvation.  Half the colonists died.  No one did more than the minimal because the incentive to excel was destroyed by the contract.  The industrious were neutralized.  Bradford wrote of the scarcity of food “no supply was heard of, neither knew they when they might expect any.”  The contract, Bradford added, “was found to breed much confusion and discontent and retard much employment that would have been to the benefit and comfort.  For the young men, that were most able and fit for labour and service, did repine that they should spend their time and strength to work for other men’s wives and children without any recompense….” 

In other words, socialism made strong men lazy.  Bradford spoke of another problem because of the government created famine—thievery.  Even in this Christian community, “much was stolen both by night and day….” to alleviate the prevailing condition of hunger.

The “feast” of the first Thanksgiving did fill their bellies briefly, and they were grateful, but abundance was anything but common. Harvests were not bountiful in that year nor the next. Why did this happen? Because they had fallen victim to the socialistic philosophy of “share the wealth.” This dis-incentivized the productive base of society.

After two years of such, with the survival of the colony at stake, they contemplated upon “how they might raise as much corn as they could, and obtain a better crop than they had done, that they might not still thus languish in misery.”  They opted to abandon the incentive killing socialist contract in favor of the free market. And so they “assigned to every family a parcel of land, according to the proportion of their number, for that end….”

The effects were almost immediate. A delighted Governor Bradford wrote: “This had very good success, for it made all hands very industrious, so as much more corn was planted than otherwise would have been by any means the Governor … could use, and saved him a great deal of trouble, and gave far better content.  The women now went willingly into the field, and took their little ones with them to set corn; which before would allege weakness and inability; whom to have compelled would have been thought great tyranny and oppression.” 

Postcard depiction. Only half of the 102 who boarded the Mayflower survived the first two years.

Then suddenly, as though night changed to day, the crop of 1623 was bounteous, and those thereafter as well, and it had nothing to do with the weather. Bradford wrote, “Instead of famine now God gave them plenty and the face of things was changed, to the rejoicing of the hearts of many, for which they blessed God.” He concluded later, “any general want or famine hath not been amongst them since to this day.”
One variable alone made the difference and ended the three-year famine. They abandoned the notion of government (or corporation) owning the means of production and distribution in favor of the individual having property and being responsible to take care of himself. Before, no one benefited by working because he received the same compensation as those who did not. After the change everyone kept the benefits of his labor. Those who chose not to work basically chose also to be poor and the government (corporation) no longer confiscated from those who produced to give to those who did not.

In other words, the free market (capitalism) is a much greater stimulus than governmental force.  The Pilgrims now wished to work because they got to keep the benefits of their labor.

Secure property rights are the key to prosperity for all who wish to work.  When this right is threatened by confiscatory taxation or outright confiscation of property, or by excessive government rules and regulations governing such, whether planned as in a contract enforced by the government at Plymouth, or gradual as in our day, work and production slow and can eventually stop.  The answer for them was to extricate socialism immediately from their midst, as it is for us today as well.  May we have the wisdom to do so.

Trump’s “Second Term” It Had to be this Way!!

By Harold Pease, Ph. D.

Few people will understand Trump’s recent comments without help so stay with me. Those totally ignorant of devolution will dismiss it as crazy talk—let them! Let’s note some unusual recent comments made by President Donald Trump, notice his word PAUSE.

On Sept. 25 at his Summerville, South Carolina Rally, he said, “I have three terms…Joe Biden isn’t really running the country. He’s being told what to do by others….This will be bigger than anything we have done. This is the greatest movement of all time in this country and I think probably beyond this country. But if we win this time this will be bigger than anything we’ve ever done—MUCH BIGGER—than had we done it the ‘traditional way’ which we did but didn’t get credit for it. But we did do it. Winner three times that’s how I look at it…One of the things in taking this pause is to show how bad they are. We’ve won twice but I have never seen the spirit that we have[now].” (X22 Reports, hereafter not cited, Ep 3173b, Sept. 26, 2023, 43:23).

Subduing the enemy without fighting has happened twice in America the last thirty years. The first when the socialist Deep State would have made their presence and victories permanent in all future “elections”—had it not been for one man, Donald J. Trump. They successfully “elected” Joe Biden as president in 2000 because too many people were lazy in their voting practices and principles and approved corruption in that election. The American people were the enemy subdued—most unaware. The second was when that one man who, instead of allowing civil war to vindicate his reelection, vacated the White House and spent the next four years exposing the Deep State’s Coup d’état. and showing his countrymen the fraud that actually gave him the victory then and now, winning over the American voter for absolute and overwhelming victory in 2024.

Two days later in his Michigan Rally, “We are having a pause, if that is what you want to call it. It’s a period of time when people are waking up and people are seeing how bad the country is.” He mentioned that he is in his second term [then he paused], “Well yes my second term, but I do not like the results of the second term. I don’t like what’s happening but you could call it my second term. We are at war, this is not the traditional way. This is not normal times. Do you want me to go after them?” (Ep. 3175b, Sept. 28, 2023, 55:10). “In my second term, which we’re sorta having now. The reason Crooked Joe and his thugs are finding it so hard to stop me is that in my first term I disrupted all of it. Oh did I disrupt it. That was called major disruptions and in my second term, which were sort of having now. But I don’t want the results of this second term. This second term is a disaster for this country” (Ep. 3175b, Sept. 28, 2023, 58:21).

In both rallies he refers to his second term, 2020-2024, as a pause “to show how bad they [the Deep State players] are” and a “time when people are waking up.” This fits precisely with devolution which we have previously introduced (See “A Trump Return—Devolution Explained? Aug. 4, 2021, and “Did Trump Implement Devolution and therefore Retains some Control?” August 18, 2021, LibertyUnderFire.org ). Trump left the White House, in effect, removing the target from his back to Biden’s so all could see who the real Deep State enemies of the Republic and the Constitution were. This, while retaining the authority of Commander and Chief over the military, [because this was a Coup d’état] but forbidding the illegitimate government authority to start new wars without patriot consent.

The greatest threat to America for the last hundred years has been the threat of socialism from without. But what if America had to fight socialists on its own soil and they conquered from within by a fraudulent election with some assistance from foreign entities? This happened in the presidential election of 2020 when America fell to Democratic Socialism under Joe Biden.

The military takes a solemn oath to preserve the Constitution from enemies foreign and domestic—there first responsibility is to protect the Constitution and the Republic created by it—not the immediate president or his federal government. A president could be its greatest enemy. Our Republic, protected by the Constitution, and socialism are polar opposites. Socialism accepts nothing that limits its power. The antidote to socialism is the Constitution as expressed through devolution as established by Eisenhower fearing such might prevail some day in America (See “A Trump Return—Devolution Explained?,” Harold Pease, Ph. D., LibertyUnderFire).

The Deep State had “fixed” the 2016 election for Hillary Clinton after Barack Obama. But, “Oh did I disrupt it,” said Trump. Trump’s first term 2016-2020 was to put in place the mechanics to catch all the data respecting the Coup d’état which military intelligence advised him was coming in 2020, to remove him since he was not one of them, and they had been otherwise unable to do this through the Robert Mueller Investigation and subsequent Impeachments I and II, and numerous alleged accusations and hoaxes between and since.

This Coup d’état to remove Trump, engineered by the intelligence community, with full support of the Deep State media, was so powerfully executed that no reasonable opposition to it could be assembled to avoid it at that time, as they controlled all the media narratives. The Coup could not be prevented—in fact it would be so natural it would not be noticed by the oblivious public.

The Deep State chorused for at least 9 years their hate Trump narrative. It has been very difficult to find in news sources anything nice, complimentary, or good about the man.

The choice in 2020, if Trump did not leave the White House, was civil war and massive death and destruction, in which Trump would be blamed, or, the slow awakening of the people through —the pause. But taking back the country would never work until the people experienced the loss of freedom and were willing to fight, through the ballot box, to get it back. Meanwhile, the Deep State media chorused for 9 years their hate Trump narrative. The military could not preserve the Constitution and its Republic, and liberty be retained thereafter, without an awakened population, which ironically Trump was trying to do. Everyone had to wait on those Americans who seldom study or vote, don’t care, or understood freedom’s rudimentary elements but had drenched themselves in the privileges of freedom, opportunity and prosperity, having paid no price nor sacrifice but had been indoctrinated to hate Trump.

Although Trump and the military were involved in what was happening, his second term had to be served from outside the White House leaving the bumbling resident Joe Biden to reveal to America what the Deep State government would do once in full power. America crashed and burned in Afghanistan, descended from an energy exporter to energy dependence in days, and shortages were showing up everywhere on previously easily supplied commodities. Trump’s 2nd Term was a pause so people could open their eyes, see and reverse in 2024 America’s fall into socialism and from the Constitution and Republic. America is now awakening as never before.

The Crime Trump Commits Openly that the Deep State will never Pursue

By Harold Pease, Ph. D.

By now most recognize the existence of the Deep State, known over the decades as the shadow government, globalists, establishment, or secret combinations. They recognize that an underlying power has a presence in our government far beyond the will or vote of the people. It is evidenced over time in both major political parties most presently in the Democrat Party and RINO faction of the Republican Party. This power seeks to remain in the shadows but still govern—it favors the rich and powerful. Today it is more threatened by Donald J. Trump than anyone in its over 100 year history. They will do anything to have him removed because he reveals them.

So what crime has Trump committed repeatedly and in full public view that they could use to remove him but will not dare do so? He is still using a portfolio with the presidential seal on it with “The President” emblazoned at the bottom—see photo above. This is a crime punishable by fine or “imprisonment not more than six months or both,” presumably for each offense. Why? They do not want to make a point that he may still be the legitimate Commander in Chief. Absent their cheating and Coup d’état, he WAS reelected president in 2020. Trump likes to taunt his enemies helping them make mistakes. Is this what he is doing? Probably!

Trump has had more opposition to being president than probably all previous presidents in U.S. history put together. Right now, in the middle of a presidential campaign, he faces 91 criminal charges in four indictments issued within five months of each other all by Democrat prosecutors, and only after he had announced he was running for president again—election interference . If he is found guilty of all combined they could give him over 300 years in prison. These trials are spread over the next year so that a constant potentially criminal label hangs over his head until election day November 5, 2024. He is in court most of the time defending himself rather than campaigning. These too will fade away as the accusations before them. If they really had anything on him he would have been removed by impeachment or locked up years ago. Perhaps he is the most scrutinized person for wrongdoing to have ever lived.

Indeed, two separate judges have gag orders against his defending himself, Judge Tanya Chukan for his use of the word thug, which she says denotes violence (X22 Reports, hereafter not cited, Ep. 3188b, Oct. 16, 2023, 45:08). She gags his followers as well. And Judge Arthur Engoron who already fined Trump $5,000 for having violated his gag order and threatens imprisonment if he does so again. Trump’s answer, “I will go to jail to defend democracy” (Ep. 3193b, October 22, 2023, 51:41). This is the first time in U.S. history the judicial system has been used by the opposition candidate against a former president and the lead contender again for the same office.

In fact, this election interference technique is so obvious that these are often called “Biden indictments.” Is this working for them? No! They have given Trump victim status. His support grows with each new indictment. If the election were held today, without cheating, 53% of Republicans and 30% of Democrats would vote for Trump, with 50% of Independents also, according to the most recent Rasmussen Reports polls (Ep. 3187b, Oct. 15, 2023, 55:46. EP. 3190b, October 18, 2023, 1:00:53).

So what crime has Trump committed repeatedly and in full public view that they could use to remove him but will not dare do so? He is still using a portfolio with the presidential seal on it with “The President” emblazoned at the bottom. This is a crime punishable by fine or “imprisonment not more than six months or both,” presumably for each offense.

This, they could argue, violates 18 U.S. Code § 713 entitled, “Use of likenesses of the great seal of the United States, the seals of the President and Vice President, the seal of the United States Senate, the seal of the United States House of Representatives, and the seal of the United States Congress”. Part (a) of it reads in full. “Whoever knowingly displays any printed or other likeness of the great seal of the United States, or of the seals of the President or the Vice President of the United States, or the seal of the United States Senate, or the seal of the United States House of Representatives, or the seal of the United States Congress, or any facsimile thereof, in, or in connection with, any advertisement, poster, circular, book, pamphlet, or other publication, public meeting, play, motion picture, telecast, or other production, or on any building, monument, or stationery, for the purpose of conveying, or in a manner reasonably calculated to convey, a false impression of sponsorship or approval by the Government of the United States or by any department, agency, or instrumentality thereof, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than six months, or both” (Cornell Law School, Legal Information Institute).

Certainly Trump believes he won in 2020 (no documentation the last three years plus suggests otherwise) and should be serving his second term, as do his supporters. But the Deep State has no intention of having this fact emphasized and that he may have retained Commander in Chief status with the military’s full consent, allowing Joe Biden to be a counterfeit president and White House resident enabling him and his Deep State government to expose themself as enemies of the Republic and Constitution that could never have happened any other way. In 2020 almost no one would have believed that such a cabal of actors such as the FBI, DOJ, the vast majority of the press, and an “elected” president could successfully accomplish a Coup d’état  overthrowing the government of the United States—treason. It’s even hard to swallow now for many with all the evidence of the last almost four years.

Few really believe that Trump actually surrendered the real nuclear football (a fake one possibly, for optics) to a mentally compromised, coup installed, replacement who might actually use it to start a war, say with Russia. Trump probably knew Biden was receiving bribe money from both Ukraine and Communist China. Notice, Biden has not used the War Powers Act to bring American troops to fight in Ukraine and the Middle East and other places as did his predecessors Bill Clinton, both Bush’s, and Barack Obama (Ep. 3188b, Oct. 16, 2023, 28:51). Biden would have if he could have and we likely would be in nuclear war with Russia sometime ago. He appears to have been restrained to giving money and equipment—not troops in combative roles.

The Deep State will do anything to have Trump removed except reveal that he may still be the legitimate Commander in Chief and functioning as such behind the scenes.

Biden’s Hope to make Caucasians a Permanent Minority in the United States

By Harold Pease, Ph.D.

In 2015 then-Vice President Joe Biden explained what he viewed as the ideal immigration policy for America. “An unrelenting stream of immigration NON STOP. NON STOP. Folks like me who are caucasian or European descent for the first time in 2017 we’ll be an absolute minority in the United States of America. ABSOLUTE MINORITY!! Fewer than 50% of the people in America—from then and on—will be white European stock. That’s not a bad thing. That’s the source of our strength” (“Tucker plays Biden in 2015 celebrating ‘unrelenting stream’ of migrants to make whites a minority in US,” By Jon Dougherty, September 23, 2021).

This is an actual view of your country being invaded. Recently, not pictured, more than 8,000 illegals were apprehended at the US border in one day. “Promising the poorest people on the planet that they can have endless free, taxpayer-funded services if they show up and break your laws isn’t just stupid. It’s suicidal,” said Tucker Carlson.

This was the Democrat Party’s immigration policy under Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton was expected to follow with the same. Biden could not have expected that he, more than they, would open the flood gates himself fulfilling his dream. “Promising the poorest people on the planet that they can have endless free, taxpayer-funded services if they show up and break your laws isn’t just stupid. It’s suicidal,” said Tucker Carlson. The Democrat plan was little more than granting illegals citizenship to replace “native-born Americans who do not vote for their party.” In time the Democrats could create a super majority of grateful obedient followers who would keep them in power indefinitely. Biden’s suggestion that “non-white DNA is the source of our strength” smacks of racism—even worse, eugenics (Ibid.).

On the surface the Deep State Plan under Biden is having enormous success. He is expected to bring in at least 15 million illegal aliens before his term ends. The Biden illegal alien avalanche invasion, starting as a million a month, has accelerated doubling that. “About 2 million people—from every country on earth—are entering through the US Southern border every year,” according to Elon Musk who spent time at the border last week (X22 Reports, hereafter not cited, Ep. 3170b, Sept 22, 2023, 29:31).. How bad is it? Charlie Kirk reported, “This is a live look at your country being invaded….More than 8,000 migrants apprehended at US border in one day” (Ep. 3171b, Sept 24 2023, 15:34). This is obviously a highly coordinated invasion. Illegals coming in under Biden are said to “outnumber populations of 15 entire states” (Ep. 3170b, Sept 22, 2023, 29:50). “More than half of voters consider it likely that next year’s election could be decided by illegal immigrants voting” (“Could Voting by Illegal Immigrants Shift 2024 Election?,” Rasmussen Reports, September 28, 2023).

Worse, once in the United States illegals stay. House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan reported, “More than 99% of illegal aliens released by the Biden Administration between Jan 20, 2021, and March 31, 2023 remain in America” (Ep. 3182b, Oct. 9, 2023, 19:04). Biden is not sending any back.

Democrats also want to give American jobs to the illegals. “U.S. offers work permits to half a million Venezuelans already in the country.” But the end goal is to have them vote not just take our jobs. “Biden Admin. to give illegal immigrants photo ID’s inches closer to reality” where they can work, vote and stay (The Daily Caller, Ep 3169b, Sep. 21, 2023, 19:00).

But under the surface the story is turning off Americans—even the Democrats. Rasmussen asked voters, “The spending bill passed by Congress does not include any money to secure the U.S. border against illegal immigration. Would you support or oppose Congress passing a bill to secure the U.S. border?” Support Democrats 65%; Independents 77%; and GOP 81%. All voter’s 74% (Ep. 3182b, Oct. 9, 2023, 15:59). Rasmusson also asked, “Should illegal immigrants be allowed to vote in U.S. elections?” Yes/No: Dems 23%/66%; IND. 9%/84; GOP 5%/93%. All Voters 13%/80%” (Ep. 3175b, Sept. 28, 2023, 51:47). Even most Democrats do not approve of using illegals to cheat in the 2024 presidential election.

Chicago, which voted 96% for Biden, is “begging local politicians to close the borders of Chicago to stop illegals coming from Texas” (Ep. 3167b, Sept. 19, 2023, 28:15). Why? Being a sanctuary city with open arms to all humanity is quite different when you are a thousand miles away and they’re not taking your jobs and welfare services and, in the case of New York City, your motels. “NYC is gearing up to pay over $1,000,000,000 (billion) on just hotels over the next 3 years to house illegal immigrants.” But that’s just the hotel costs. NYC Mayor Eric Adams estimates the total cost of the migrant crisis will be about $12B over the next 3 years. “We are past our breaking point,” he said. “With more than 57,300 individuals currently in our care on an average night, it amounts to $9.8 million a day. Almost $300 million a month and nearly $3.6 billion a year” (“NYC is gearing up to pay over $1,000,000,000 (billion ) on just hotels over the next 3 years to house illegal immigrants,” by Lenox Hill, Nextdoor Daily Digest, Sept. 27, 2023).

Mass deportations happened under previous presidents and under Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1954-55. His was called Operation Wetback. It can and will happen again under Trump. Please come in the front door fully vetted. Those then and those today “breaking in” realize that coming in any other way is a crime and deportation, even mass deportation as depicted above, is the penalty for breaking the law.

But it is not just Chicago and New York City that are suffering from this bankrupting policy. Kevin McCarthy noted, “Democrat Governors of New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts are declaring emergencies and telling illegal immigrants “to go somewhere else.” He concluded, “Biden’s failed border policies have turned every community in America into a border city” (Ep. 3171b. Sept 24 2023, 19:34).

Since this is an invasion the military has been tracking those crossing the border illegally but that is a story for another column. In Summerville, South Carolina Trump said, “I will begin the largest deportation operation in American history first day as president” (Ep. 3173b, Sept. 26, 2023, 28:15). Trump wants to do as Presidents Herbert Hoover, Harry S. Truman and Dwight D. Eisenhower did when they were confronted with illegal entry violations. Eisenhower’s, 1954—55, Operation Wetback was the most extensive resulting in perhaps 2 million deportations. Trump’s will be much larger and will be aided by the military, again because it is an orchestrated invasion.

MAGA Folks Targeted by FBI as Domestic Terrorists

By Harold Pease, Ph.D.

It is not surprising that the once great Federal Bureau of Investigation, the FBI, now defines MAGA folks as domestic terrorists. The Bureau has delineated 55% of American voters, the majority now, those supportive of Donald Trump’s campaign slogan, “Make America Great Again,” as domestic terrorists in its total decline as a neutral law enforcement agency.

In the Biden Administration it was first parents attending school board meetings complaining of their kids being indoctrinated in critical race theory. Attorney General Merrick Garland’s response was to define these parents as domestic terrorists. Next targeted by the new government were people sharing information out of harmony with Deep State narratives. These were said to be spreading disinformation and thus were domestic terrorists. All violated First Amendment rights guaranteed in the Bill of Rights.

Since this meme was published by CBS Nightly News, the FBI and DOJ have added to the domestic terror list Catholics, parents speaking out at school board meetings against CTR indoctrination of their children, and now the 55% of Americans who support Trump’s Making America Great Again (MAGA) movement The majority of Americans have been decreed domestic terrorists by their own government. At what point does the majority decree that it–not they–is the actual domestic terrorists? Three years of close scrutiny of January 6 and the 2020 presidential election document that the insurrection was November 3, by the Deep State—-a cue—and its coverup January 6.

Some saw the Bureau’s degeneration as early as 1992 in Ruby Ridge, Idaho with the Randy Weaver family standoff where a government sniper shot dead Vicki who was holding her baby in her arms standing in the cabin doorway. But the contempt for integrity openly flowered July 5, 2016, when then FBI director James Comey protected Hillary Clinton’s bleach-bit 33,000 emails from congressional review—many classified documents that she unlawfully had on a non-government server. Then followed the FBI’s suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop of crimes until after the 2020 presidential election enabled Joe Biden to come into office. Finally, we now know that January 6 was a fedsurrection orchestrated and led by the FBI to entrap MAGA participants. LibertyUnderFire has published on all these stories.

So when the left of center, Newsweek magazine, broke the story last week that the FBI now considers the MAGA people domestic terrorists, it surprised no one that has been paying attention (“Exclusive: Donald Trump Followers Targeted by FBI as 2024 Election Nears,” By William M. Arkin, October 4, 2023). The FBI has turned rogue and is now the major protector of the Biden Administration and the Deep State.

Newsweek opened with, “The federal government believes that the threat of violence and major civil disturbances around the 2024 U.S. presidential election is so great that it has quietly created a new category of extremists that it seeks to track and counter: Donald Trump’s: army of MAGA followers.” Under what evidence? Since entering the classroom in 1975, I asked students to identify any moment in US. history when the right side of the political spectrum organized riots and civil disobedience. In my lifetime it has been only the socialist Left. As said, January 6 was orchestrated by the FBI using Antifa and other leftist groups. During the event President Trump told MAGA to “go home in peace.” Patriots never come out of their homes to burn down their own cities as the Left did in their summer riots of 2020. Investigate them, they actually did crimes.

One FBI agent, requesting anonymity, identified a real problem. “By focusing on former president Trump and his MAGA (Make America Great Again) supporters, the official said, the Bureau runs the risk of provoking the very anti-government activists that the terrorism agencies hope to counter. Especially at a time when the White House is facing Congressional Republican opposition claiming that the Biden administration has ‘weaponized’ the Bureau against the right wing” (Ibid.). They may be baiting MAGA?

Joe Biden certainly has encouraged the FBI’s treating MAGA as a terrorist group. Newsweek quotes him as having tweeted, ”Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans are a threat to the very soul of this country,” and mentions that this tweet was “the first time that he explicitly singled out the former president.” Biden adding, “MAGA Republicans aim to question not only the legitimacy of past elections but elections being held now and into the future” (Ibid.). Is this election interference potentially discouraging the undecided from voting for Trump? Many believe Biden has a hand in orchestrating the four indictments against Trump right in the middle of his presidential campaign.

The Deep State who has been accused of overthrowing the elected government of the United State by manipulating the 2020 presidential election—a coup—benefits from confrontation with the Patriots. ALL documentation the last four years on that election confirms this happened. Are they planning another January 6 for all the MAGA people—perhaps even a civil war—to hide it?

Who are the real domestic terrorists? The FBI has decreed MAGA folks as the biggest threat of domestic terrorism in America today while new evidence continually documents that they orchestrated and led the January 6 attack on the Capitol with the help of Antifa and BLM, The January 6 Commission even made their two years of data virtually impossible to use. Who destroys data that makes their case?

This would benefit the Deep State. If the election was stolen they know their guilt, thus they fear three things: discovery, a sentence of treason, and a stay in Guantanamo Bay after trial. They expect a counter!!! Certainly this was supposed when Biden had fences erected around the capitol on three separate occasions initiating his presidency. This more so now than ever as all evidence shows Biden was never really elected and especially as they witness the exploding growth of the MAGA movement. A nation-wide repeat of January 6 removes all attention from them, essentially burying the evidence against them. Why not get the narrative started that the Patriots will do something?

Will there be violence before the 2024 election, or after? Yes, not by MAGA but by people dressed as MAGA and the Deep State media will film it all just as they did Antifa, dressed as MAGA, on January 6 and replay it for weeks after. Why would we expect a different plan when the one used then worked so well for two years? When you are guilty you camouflage the evidence as did the January 6th Commission 8 months ago.

As we have published before, the Patriot Front, their faces always covered, has been practicing for a moment like this for at least three years and is poised to be the fake MAGA in the hope of bringing actual MAGA into the fray. Please do not be enticed. The expected counter-revolution will happen November 5, 2024, in a one day election using only paper ballots and protected by the military, but this is a column for another time.

America’s New Justice System “Prove your Innocence” January 6

Harold Pease, Ph.D.

The January 6 Select Committee was required by law to preserve and turn over ALL DATA related to its probe at the end of the congressional term to the incoming Republican House Administration Oversight Subcommittee. “Nothing was indexed. There was no table of contents… Usually when you conduct this level of investigation, you use a database system and everything is digitized, indexed. We got nothing like that. We just got raw data,” said Rep.Barry Loudermilk, chair of the new subcommittee. “So it took us a long time going through it and one thing I started realizing is we don’t have anything much at all.”

The Deep State continues to persecute the January 6 political prisoners. At least one, Ryan Samsel has been held in prison without trial since January 2021—almost 4 years. In his case the Democrats are in violation of Amendments 1, 5, 6, 8 and 14.

For most Americans the reason for the Committee was to investigate the actual breach itself which was mostly ignored. This, as it turns out, would have required investigating themselves. This confirms the suspicion that the January 6 Committee was mostly created and weaponized as a tribunal to “get Trump” and the materials missing were to remove incrimination evidence as to that intent (“House Jan. 6 committee failed to preserve records, lacks data, says Barry Loudermilk,” Just the News, August 10, 2023).

We’ve known for two years that January 6 was a FBI insurrection planned a year prior to the event and had little to do with patriots walking through the doors of the Capital. This was caused and orchestrated by the FBI and the Deep State. Rasmussen Reports that 2/3rds of all voters want Congress to investigate the 2020 riots, (Twitter, now X, September 13, 2023, X 22 Reports, hereafter not cited, Ep. 3162b, Sept. 13, 2023, 46:00).

How can this weaponization not be intentional? On November 30, 2022, before disbandment of the Select Committee, Speaker Kevin McCarthy demanded that the January 6 Committee preserve all records and vowed to hold hearings the next year. The Committee defied the request (Ep. 3136b, Aug. 10, 2023, 44:24). Isn’t deletion or making evidence hard to find obstruction of justice? Why isn’t the Department of Justice investigating the Committee? Would they be OK if those they investigate hid evidence? No!

When it was learned that the Select Committee, before disbandment in early January, manipulated or destroyed their evidence, Trump asked, “How do you have an indictment that is based almost entirely on the finding of the January 6 Committee …who purposely and illegally DESTROYED AND DELETED all the Evidence, Findings, and Proof of the January 6th Committee? (Ep. 3150b, August 28, 2023, 55:41). He argued that in dropping the evidence the fake indictments must also be dropped—for lack of evidence.

Why would the Committee do this? With the accused, Trump, now having subpoena powers, they did not want their evidence to assist him and witness against them. They did not want to get caught. If nothing digital is really ever lost, can retrieved information come back to bite them? They must have feared the release of their own records without omissions or redactions—otherwise, why go to all the trouble? No one hides evidence that helps them.

We have presented the documentation in previous columns over the past nearly four years that January 6, was a fedsurrection caused by the Deep State “a set up” to entrap Trump and his MAGA followers. The constant drip of evidence to this understanding has been such that an April 2023 Rasmussen Poll “found 65% believed intel agencies helped provoke the J6 riot” (Ep. 3137b, August 11, 2023, 53:39). And that “62% believe the 2020 presidential election was rigged” (Ep. 3140b, August 15, 2023, 1:06:35). “Neither Jack Smith nor Fani Willis’ indictments charge Trump with inciting the January 6th riot… So what is the crime” (Ibid. 48:38)?

President Donald Trump speaks at the Pray Vote Stand summit in Washington, D.C. on September 15, 2023. His topic to this prominent christian political group was “Christian parents and their ‘Rights.’” The moment of greatest applause was when he told them of his intent to create a Task Force to review those prosecuted for their political views specifically mentioning pro-life and January 6 protesters so that these could receive pardons or computations “on day one” of his new term. No one should be prosecuted for their political views or acts of peaceful protest. The Deep State continues to persecute the January 6 political prisoners. At least one,Ryan Samsel has been held in prison without trial for almost 4 years. In this the Democrats are in violation of Amendments 1, 5, 6, 8 and 14.

Meanwhile, the Deep State continues to persecute the January 6 political prisoners. At least one, Ryan Samsel has been held in prison without trial since January 2021. Two photos of him were smuggled out showing his harsh living quarters, a cell about 4 by 8 feet, guessing from the photos. In both he is lying or sitting on a thin blue workout mat on a concrete floor. One photo has him naked, a second in shorts. There existed a bucket toilet but no sink, cot, pillow, sheets, or blankets. In the corner water appears to be available for some kind of sponge bathing–shamefully little more (Ep. 3142b, August 17, 2023, 42:52). Respecting him certainly the Democrats are in violation of Amendments 1 “the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances”; 5 and 14 “due process of law;” Amendment 6 “the right to a speedy and public trial by an impartial jury;” and Amendment 8 “cruel and unusual punishment inflicted.” The January 6 political prisoners face a new justice system, “Prove your innocence”—no longer innocent until proven guilty.

But a change is on the horizon beginning in 13 months. To a packed crowd at the Pray Vote Stand summit, September 15, 2023 in Washington, DC, carried live by Newsmax, Trump promises a Task Force to review everyone’s case. He said, “Under Biden people are being prosecuted for their political views.” He mentioned “five pro-life activist individuals convicted for 11 years for simple acts of protest. Under Biden, others are being sentenced to 10, 15, even 20 years in prison for retribution for their political beliefs, while Antifa and other groups burn down cities, like Portland, like Minneapolis, and took over Seattle. They kill, loot, plunder, and then they go free. The political repression is immoral, and very very un-American…. To reverse these cruel travesties of justice tonight I am announcing at the moment I win the election the creation of a Task Force to review everyone’s case.” [Thunderous 20 seconds of applause.]

At the very moment he wins the election, Trump will appoint a Task Force to rapidly review the cases of every political prisoner that has been unjustly prosecuted by the Biden administration. He wants to sign their pardons or computations on day one (Ep. 3165b, Sept. 17, 2023, 53:50).

“This Nation Belongs to You,”—Not the Deep State, Trump’s Censored Address

By Harold Pease, Ph. D.

The biggest tragedy of the last three years is the censorship of truth advanced by the Deep State as they seek to bring us into total subjugation. When censorship and propaganda are the dominant tools used to keep us ignorant, I recoil and am drawn to cover that which is true but censored. Such is, “This Nation Belongs to You,” I added, “Not the Deep State.” This is Trump’s mostly censored address given in South Dakota, September 9, 2023. Parts of it follow:

“Like those patriots before us—we will not bend—we will not break—we will not yield—we will never give in—we will never give up and we will never ever back down.” FOX news alone, as far as we can discern, covered probably the most important message of the 2024 campaign as Donald Trump clearly took on, not just Joe Biden and Democrats, but the Deep State.

“Now we are a nation in decline… We are a nation that has the highest inflation in 50 years, where banks are collapsing and interest rates are through the roof. Likewise, we are a nation where energy costs have reached the highest in our history, where we are no longer energy independent or energy dominant as we were just a short number of years ago. We are a nation that is begging Venezuela and others for oil; please, please please help us….Yet we have more liquid gold right under our feet than any other country in the world.…

“We are a nation that is consumed by the radical left Green New Deal. Yet everyone knows that the Green New Deal is fake and will lead to our country’s destruction. We are a nation whose leaders are demanding all electric cars despite the fact that they can’t go far, cost too much, and whose batteries are produced in China with materials only available in China when an unlimited amount of gasoline is available inexpensively in the United States…. And now we are a nation that wants to make our great army tanks all electric… despite the fact that they will not be able to go very far either.… We are a nation who wants to mark our jet fighters with a green energy stamp losing 15% efficiency but allowing us to keep our enemies atmosphere clean of pollutants while we attempt to knock out their planes all over the skies. We are a nation that ended oil exploration and production in the US just as the price of oil reached an all time high. What other country would do such a thing as this?”

Trump continues, “We are a nation that surrendered in Afghanistan, leaving behind dead soldiers, American citizens and $85 billion worth of the finest military equipment in the world. And we are a nation that allowed Russia to devastate a country, Ukraine, killing hundreds of thousands of people and it will only get worse. It would never have happened with me as your president. And for four straight years it didn’t happen….

“We are a nation that has weaponized its law enforcement against the opposing political party like never seen before. We’ve got a Federal Bureau of Investigation that won’t allow bad election changing facts to be presented to the public…. Where Hunter Biden’s laptop from Hell was Russian disinformation and the FBI knew it wasn’t, but 51 intelligence agents said it was, and they knew it wasn’t …. [We are a nation with] “a Department of Justice that refuses to investigate egregious acts of voting irregularities and fraud….”

Trump has more. “We’re a nation that no longer has a free and fair press. Fake news is all you get. And they are the enemy of the people. They refuse to discuss the Biden crime family but enjoy covering false indictments of Donald Trump, who has done nothing wrong. We are a nation where free speech is no longer allowed and where crime is rampant and out of control like never before…. And we are a nation that is hostile to liberty, freedom and faith.

“We are a nation whose economy is collapsing into a cesspool of ruin. Whose supply chain is horrible, horrib[ly] broken and whose stores are not stocked, whose deliveries are not coming and whose educational system is ranked at the bottom of every single list.

“We will demolish the Deep State,” Trump told the thousands gathered to hear him Sept. 9, 2023 in South Dakota. The Deep State, previously known as the the shadow government, secret combination, or other nebulous names always included the Wall Street financial elite. They first had influence in the William McKinley administration in the Spanish American War. Since then it organized as the Council of Foreign Relations in 1921 and has been the dominating influence in both major political parties ever since. Until Trump it was believed, by those in the know, that one could not be president without their approval–they dominated both. Trump is the only U.S. president to oppose them, get elected, and live to serve a full term. They will do ANYTHING to destroy him. It is impossible to understand why he has always been attacked by both political parties without knowing something of this secret government influence.

“We’re a nation where large packs of sadistic criminals and thieves are allowed to go into stores and openly rob, beat up and kill their workers and customers and leave with arm loads of foods but with no retribution…. We are a nation where fentanyl and all other forms of illegal drugs are easier to get than formula for our beautiful little babies. A nation whose once revered airports are a dirty crowded mess. You sit and wait for hours and then are notified that the plane won’t leave, and they have no idea when they will, where their ticket prices have tripled. They don’t have the pilots to fly the planes….

“We are a nation that has lost it’s confidence. Lost its willpower and it’s lost its strength. We’re a nation that has quite simply lost its way….

Nevertheless, with all the damage done to us, Trump concludes, “We are going to finish what we so brilliantly started. With you at my side, we will demolish the Deep State. We will drive out the globalists, we will cast out the communists, we will throw off the sick political class that hates our country. We will rout the fake news media and we will drain the swamp once and for all.

“Like those patriots before us, we will not bend, we will not break. We will not yield, we will never give in. We will never give up and we will never ever back down. Together we will complete the mission. We will cross the finish line… take back this country with a righteous and magnificent victory on election day, 2024. The great silent majority is rising like never before and under our leadership the forgotten men and women will be forgotten no longer. We are one movement, one people, one family, and one glorious nation under God. And together we will make America powerful again. We will make America wealthy again. We will make America strong again. We will make America proud again. We will make America safe again. And we will make America great again. Thank you. Thank you South Dakota. God bless you. God bless you all.”
