The vast importance of the JFK Assassination Files, hidden from the public for 62 years through multiple congressional hearings over the years, just released by President Donald Trump under enormous opposition to its release, was not who killed John F. Kennedy, but that the entity who did still exists. The CIA has always been the prime suspect. I was a boy of 16 and heard this at the time. This notion that it was more then just Oswald was quickly smothered by the then Deep State media who preferred and promoted the lone-wolf narrative but it never felt right nor was it ever fully accepted by most Americans. The FBI “suddenly uncovered” 2,000 JFK-related files, these reveal the CIA as a “state within a state” and most responsible for the assassination.
The long promised Kennedy Files were finally released by President Trump in March 2025. These files prove the existence of the Deep State in 1963 powerful enough by then, over years of development and secrecy, to kill the president of the United States and keep that fact from being revealed for 62 years, until all responsible for his death were unpunished and safely dead. These newly released files also prove that Lee Harvey Oswald was in fact a CIA asset, recruited, trained, and groomed by the CIA. in JAPAN while he was in the service at the Naval Air Facility Atsugi in the late 1950’s.
These files prove the existence of the Deep State in 1963 powerful enough by then, over years of development and secrecy, to kill the president of the United States and keep that fact from being revealed until all responsible for the death were unpunished and safely dead. There is no organization more Deep State than the CIA. This is the importance of the JFK Assassination Files. Second to this in importance is, since it was never fully revealed, removed, and punished then, it is still in place 62 years later in our day. These files show it is not unreasonable to believe that they also want Donald Trump dead as he too, like Kennedy, seeks to reveal them.
Every president of both political parties, had access to these files and chose not to have them declassified. Two presidents in particular knew the intimate details up close and personal, Lyndon Baines Johnson, who benefited most by Kennedy’s death by replacing him as president, and Jerald Ford, a member of the Johnson appointed Warren Commission to hide our own governments involvement in the assassination of our own.
LibertyUnderFire has published much on the assassination over the many years and as new things came out. Mostly the new documents reveal what those who have followed this story already knew but it is good for the new generation. Yes, the documents first tried to blame the assassination on Cuba and the Soviets. We, among others debunked this story. There were three reasons Kennedy was assassinated: 1) he opposed the CIA’s Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba, 2) he wanted America’s withdrawal from the Vietnam War, and 3) he also opposed the Federal Reserve’s Central Bank currency control authorizing the printing of silver certificates in defiance of it (Why the Deep State Assassination of John F. Kennedy?, LibertyUnderFire.com, Dec 6, 2023). Opposition to these three issues could not be tolerated. Kennedy could not be controlled by them so they could not wait another year for a new election to remove him.
The “new” files confirm that Lee Harvey Oswald was in fact a CIA asset, “recruited by the CIA in JAPAN while he was in the service at the Naval Air Facility Atsugi in the late 1950’s.” NAFA was “a known CIA hub for covert operations, including U2 spy plane missions from 1957 to 1958” as per a suppressed document from his commander at the base at the time. Documents show that “as late as 1996 this story was almost broke by ‘a credible UPI reporter’ and had to be covered up 30 years after the assassination.” The “CIA was deeply concerned about the story getting traction.” They rightly realized it could be viewed “as a smoking gun.” They allowed just enough information out “to appear transparent while withholding the most damning evidence that Oswald was recruited, trained, and groomed by the CIA during his time in Japan.” We soon learned of Oswald’s defection to the Soviet Union in 1959, his return to the U.S. in 1962, and his eventual role in the assassination in 1963. This was common knowledge soon after the assassination.
President Kennedy was warned of the presence of a “state within a state” or the Deep State as we call it today. Presidential adviser Arthur Schlesinger, in a 15-page Memo to John F. Kennedy called for Kennedy to break up the CIA in 1961. “Schlesinger called the CIA a rogue ‘state within a state’… His Memo told the president ‘the contemporary CIA possesses many of the characteristics of ‘a state within a state’ adding ‘there is no doctrine governing our conduct of clandestine operations.’”
Kennedy learned quickly that there existed another force to reconcile with besides just the legislative and judicial branches—a real shadow government. Less than four months into office on April 27, 1961, he spoke to this secret entity, the CIA, directly through the press in the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York City. He said, “We are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence—on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day”… Its preparations are concealed, not published. Its mistakes are buried, not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced, not praised.” The CIA and Kennedy came to hate each other early in his administration.
Schlesinger noted that, “A number of governments still in power know that they have been targets of CIA attempts at overthrow—not a state of mind calculated to stimulate friendly feelings” toward the US. He also wrote, “CIA operations have not been held effectively subordinate to US foreign policy,” He told the president, “In practice the State Department had become a ‘rubber stamp’ for CIA clandestine operations.”
A month after JFK’s assassination, former President Harry, Truman, “echoed Schlesinger’s fears outlined in the 1961 Memo. There is something about the way the CIA has been functioning that is casting a shadow over our historic position.” Truman wrote, that “he set up the CIA to streamline information gathering… but between his presidency, and JFK’s, Truman witnessed a change in the CIA.” He wrote of this, “For sometime, I have been disturbed by the way the CIA has been diverted from its original assignment. It has become operational and at times a policymaking arm of the government. I never had any thought that when I set up the CIA that it would be injected into peacetime cloak and dagger operation.” Truman “called for the termination of the CIA operation duties, and the restoration of the agency to its original assignment as the intelligence arm of the president” (X22 Report, Ep. 3599b, 03/19/2025, 11:59).
Instead of destroying the CIA as Kennedy intended the CIA destroyed him, and worse, came to control the organization Kennedy created, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) responsible for administering civilian foreign aid and development Assistance throughout the world. The “rogue state within a state” came to fund shadow governments and regime change in the world—even in Ukraine in 2014 and the United States in 2020 and thus far got away with it. Most importantly the “rogue state within a state” was never identified, removed or punished and thus is still very much alive today fighting Trump.

In Donald Trump’s first term in office he was impeached twice but not acquitted in either for lack of evidence. When he announced an intended run for a second term he immediately faced, and subsequently beat, four new, separate and fake indictments, some with gag orders to keep him from defending himself and from campaigning effectively while running. We called this lawfare.
The avalanche of cases against Trump, 125 in hist first two months, involve his executive and discretionary powers which are off limits to judicial interference. according to the Constitution and historical precedence. Despite this clear legal precedence Deep State activist judges continue violating the Constitution by ruling against Trumps’s executive authority. Whether they like it or not Trump has a constitutional mallet, they do not.
Now an army of low level Deep State activist district judges have stepped in front of SCOTUS to destroy Trump’s second term. They, once again, have weaponized the judiciary against him. In the first two months of this term he is facing 125 legal challenges. In his first term it was just 65 in four years (X22 Reports, March 13, 2025, 32:42). They are blocking everything. The Trump DOJ is inundated, every day with lawsuits filed by Deep State activists judges. This is way beyond the pale and the people know this and support Trump.
This is not the first time federal judges have attempted to manage executive branch authority unto themselves. The issue of federal judges having power to interfere with the Executive branch of government was specifically denied them and settled in The State of Mississippi vs. Johnson in 1867. “The President of the United States cannot be restrained by injunction from carrying into effect an act of Congress alleged to be unconstitutional, nor will a bill having such a purpose be allowed to be filed.” (71 U.S. 475 April 15, 1867).
The first suit brought to the Supreme Court against a president of the United States was Mississippi vs Johnson and it was over this very issue. In it Mississippi was contending that Andrew Johnson had exceeded his executive authority by enforcing the Reconstruction Acts, recently passed by Congress. Johnson’s veto was subsequently overridden by Congress. It was to Johnson’s credit that he then felt duty bound to administer it as required of his presidency. “In an attempt to delay or prevent Reconstruction, the state of Mississippi appealed directly to the Supreme Court. Mississippi asked the Court for an injunction preventing the President from enforcing the Acts on the ground that they were unconstitutional.”
The question was, “Could the Supreme Court constitutionally issue an injunction directed against the President?…In a unanimous decision, the Court held that it had ‘no jurisdiction of a bill to enjoin the President in the performance of his official duties’….The Court held that the duties of the President as required by the Reconstruction Acts were ‘in no sense ministerial,’ and that a judicial attempt to interfere with the performance of such duties would be ‘an absurd and excessive extravagance.’ The Court noted that if the President chose to ignore the injunction, the judiciary would be unable to enforce the order” (Oyez LIII Supreme Court Resources, Justia Supreme Court Center Mississippi vs Johnson). Sound familiar?
The last part of the unanimous Supreme Court’s ruling is instructive. If the highest judicial authority in the land “would be unable to enforce the order,” how much less authority to do so would the lowest national judicial authority— a singular district judge— have? NONE.
Neither the Judicial or Legislative branches have ANY administrative authority. The Constitution gives only the president the authority to exercise the power of the entire Executive branch. No court may define or limit the scope of the duties of an official of the executive office of the President. Judges have no say in who Trump hires and fires; nor his revoking security clearances, nor to nullify the results of a national election. Again, if the Supreme Court has no authority then neither do underling activist judges attempting to override the higher court.
The issue of federal judges having power to interfere with the Executive branch of government in their constitutional duties was specifically and unanimously denied them and settled in Mississippi vs. Johnson on April 15, 1867. The Constitution as written has not been followed closely for a long time. It’s only constitutional illiteracy in our generation that allows the Deep State to convince the most ill-informed that by following it, thus reducing the cost, size, and power of government, Trump is exercising dictatorial power over us. It would be the first time in history dictatorship was accomplished by that formula.
Trump answers Deep State activist judges with already existing law but not enforced. He just signed an executive order requiring that it be enforced called “Ensuring the Enforcement of Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 65(c),” The White House, March 11, 2025, “Memorandum for the Heads of Executive Departments and Agencies. … Designed to clamp down on the growing abuse of American judicial system by radical activist, judges, and far left organizations.”
It “specifically targets the reckless pursuit of frivolous injunctions which repeatedly cost taxpayers millions in disruptive Republican governance. It directs the heads of executive departments and agencies to firmly enforce Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65(c) which says, that ‘everyone who asks a court for an injunction or temporary order stopping the government action must first deposit money or a bond with the court. This money is intended to cover potential harm or cost to the government if a court later decides that the injunction was improperly issued.’ Trump argues that activist organizations have been abusing the courts frequently filing weak or meritless lawsuits against the government to slow down or block policies they disagree with often choosing sympathetic judges to hear their cases. These groups do not typically face consequences when their lawsuit fails. Instead taxpayers pay the costs when government policies are halted by these injunctions.”
The Memo doubles down on requiring “federal agencies to make sure that whenever someone sues the government for an injunction, the agency should request that the plaintive, the person or organization suing, provides enough money upfront to cover possible cost and damages the government might suffer if the injunction turns out to be unjustified. Agencies must work with the attorney general to decide how much money to ask for, and they must clearly justify to the amounts to the courts” (X22 Report, Ep. 3594b, March 13, 2025, 34:05).We wrote of this solution for activist district judges previously (“We have Tyranny of the Judicial,” Elon Musk, LibertyUnderFire, March 5, 2025). We think the enforcement of 65(c) will end the problem of district judges overstepping the Constitution and go far in dispelling the Deep State’s fake narrative that Trump is making up the rules as does a dictator.

The Constitution says, “The executive Power shall be vested in a president of the United States of America.” No administrative power was given to either the Judicial, (especially not independent judges—non-existent at the time) or Legislative branches. There exist only one person elected by every citizen voting in the United States and that is the President. He executes the laws of the land as passed by the Legislative Branch. No unelected bureaucrat or district judge has ANY independent authority This was upheld until recent times. (Article II, Section I).
Trump signed Executive Order 14215 entitled, “Ensuring Accountability for all Agencies,” Feb. 18, 2025, restoring ALL executive power under the president of the U.S. as it was pre 1935. It argues that under Franklin Delano Roosevelt this authority had been “scattered between independent boards, commissions and agencies that have proliferated since the Roosevelt administration.” With 443 government agencies such is necessary for the government “to be truly accountable to the American people.” This power “must be supervised and controlled by the people’s elected president.”
By the early 1970’s the federal government had become so big and sprawling that the Deep State, then called the Establishment, desired a different system to disperse the funded money authorized and originating “in the House of Representatives“(U. S. Constitution, Article I, Section 7, Clause 1). Normally Congress paid little attention to the money once allocated. They had previously, in 1913, allowed the Federal Reserve System (a private corporation) to create money on demand, debt they then repaid by their inflated currency. It seemed to work for everyone not on a fixed income—retirees mostly, who would soon die anyway.
On November 3, 1961 the Deep State, again then called the Establishment, pushed for even more control over allocation by creating the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). Congress’s allocated money would go to it and be distributed by it. A portion—gradually even a majority of it—could go to any cause they liked that had not been approved by Congress— so long as the cause voted on by the House got some of the money. The money spawned Non-Government Organizations (NGOs). Some NGOs were members of Congress whose loyalty could be rewarded by kickbacks. It became self propelling—they proposed and pushed the legislation. That is believed to have made many members of Congress millionaires on public servant salaries—especially Democrats as they saw federal gift giving as enticements, thus recruitments, to their party. Mostly they funded themselves and their left of center causes.
Two things inhibited their intended total control, the Gold Standard, which they were pleased to have Richard Nixon remove in 1974, and an uncontrolled U.S. president as he could, discover their fraud and veto USAID payments to unworthy causes as President Trump and Elon Musk are now doing. The Deep State’s answer to this possibility was The Empowerment and Control Act of 1974. They saw power in the administrational dispersement, after Congress’s allocation, and wanted that removed from the president to themselves. They succeeded until Donald Trump.
President Trump wants this act revoked and the power presidents had prior to 1934 restored to the Executive Branch as was followed our first 146 years. Until then, in keeping with his oath to preserve and defend the Constitution, he is creating a constitutional crises through executive orders constitutionally cancelling billions of dollars going to causes never actually approved by Congress as stipulated in Article I, Section 7, Clause I.
His Executive Order 14215 entitled, “Ensuring Accountability for all Agencies,” Feb. 18, 2025, restores ALL executive power under the president of the U.S. as it was pre 1935. It argues that under Franklin Delano Roosevelt this authority had been “scattered between independent boards, commissions and agencies that have proliferated since the Roosevelt administration.” All is returned under the management of the White House. Such is necessary for the government “to be truly accountable to the American people.” This power “must be supervised and controlled by the people’s elected president” (X22 Report, Ep. 3576b, Feb. 19, 2025, 45:00).
How many federal agencies are there? Forbes counted 443, most of which are controlled by the Deep State, not the president with his executive authority given him by the Constitution (“How Many Federal Agencies Exist? We Can’t Drain The Swamp,” By Clyde Crews Jr., July 5, 2017). Most of these under FDR and since are difficult to justify constitutionally as written and most originated after 1971 when Richard Nixon took us off the gold standard.
Nobody yells louder then Senator Elizabeth Warren about what Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency, led by Elon Musk, is finding in its government audits. The adage, “He who yells the loudest has the most to lose,” may come true for her. Senator Warren’s annual salary as a public servant is $285,000, yet her net worth is $67 million. She never ran a business, nor produced or manufactured anything. DOGE reports, almost 160,000 civil service employees are now millionaires up from fewer than 70,000 when Biden took office four years ago.
Trump’s Executive Order reads in part, “All executive departments and agencies including, so-called independent agencies shall submit for review all propose and significant regulatory action to the office of Information and Regulatory Affairs within the Executive Office of the President before publication in the Federal Register. ‘The White House, not the agencies, not the Deep State swamp creatures, will provide interpretation of the law. This in particular is going to stop agencies like the EPA from using their interpretation of law, to increase their regulatory power.’ The President and the Attorney General, subject to the President’s supervision and control, shall provide authoritative interpretations of the law for the Executive Branch. The President and the Attorney General’s opinion on questions of law are controlling on all employees in the context of their official duties. No employee of the Executive Branch, acting in their official capacity, may advance an interpretation of the law as the position of the United States that contravenes the President or the Attorney General’s opinion on a matter of law, including, but not limited to, issuance of regulations guidance, and position advance in litigation, unless authorized to do so by the President, or in writing by the Attorney General.”
Translation. “Trump has promptly and fundamentally changed the Executive Branch as it has existed since 1935 in the last month to how it existed from 1789 to 1934, for 146 years. Trump just wiped out 90 years of the Deep State system.” The president is once again in charge of ALL federal agencies. Now none of these swamp creatures can make decisions or authorize anything without his say so. And he is draining the swamp. Formerly the Deep State had taken away presidential power by the Empowerment and Control Act. of 1974. Congress will need to remove that unconstitutional legislation which is likely to follow (X22 Report, Ep. 3576b, 2/19/ 2025, 45:00). Once done they will no longer control the flow of money to a myriad of harmful activities to this country and the world without presidential consent like funding gain-of-function research or illegal immigration.

The Constitution is very clear, “The executive Power shall be vested in a president of the United States of America.” One, and only one, person elected by the whole nation in two ways—the people and also by the states through the Electoral College process. He, and those who serve with him, swear by oath to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America.” He executes the laws of the land as passed by the Legislative Branch. All administrative authority come through this one person and through his office. Neither the elected Legislative Branch nor the non-elected Judicial Branch have administrative authority. No unelected bureaucrat or district judge has ANY independent authority
Under Biden judicial tyranny began almost immediately with his unlawful use of 1512(c)(2) “Obstruction of an Official Proceeding” in J6 cases that prosecuted 350 (plus) Americans for their participation in Jan. 6. This was a flagrant abuse of the law to punish those who protested Biden’s “election” thus criminalizing political dissent. The worst instance of judicial tyranny was Judge Tanya Chutkan, who put all 39 of her 39 J6 defendants behind bars. Judicial tyranny was experienced by candidate Trump when four different courts simultaneous indicted him in 2024 on different frivolous charges to destroy his candidacy for President. Now judicial tyranny is again being experienced as unelected district activist judges are blocking many of Trump’s administrative functions thus stealing his constitutional executive authority.
Yet it was the latter class that engineered the four, turns out, fake indictments against President Trump to destroy him in 2024. All America viewed those public displays of tyranny of the judiciary. Actually, they did much to elect Donald Trump.
Now district judges are coming out of the woodwork to thwart or destroy his sole administrative functions. Activist judges are stealing executive authority. These (mostly far-left Deep State judges) have blocked his cut off of federal funding to aid migrants entering the country illegally, his federal resignation plan of eight months advanced pay for those choosing to retire early, his audit access to Treasury’s and other departments vita data system to assess waste and fraud, his firing 2,000 USAID workers for funding un-American activities worldwide—even terrorists organizations, his NIH grant cuts which funded gain-of-function research, and his temporarily removing funding for some public health websites said to have weaponized the health industry.
An extreme case is Judge Amir Ali, a last November Biden appointee, who just ordered President Trump to release billions of foreign aid immediately (“Judge orders temporary reversal of Trump admin’s freeze on foreign aid,” By Bradford Betz, Fox News, February 13, 2025) Judge Ali has no authority to even advise the president on executive issues especially foreign aid—his position has no standing without perversion of the U.S. Constitution as written.
Currently there are 94 non-elected, appointed only, district court judges serving in 91 geographical districts. To think he, or any of the other district judges, has authority to restrict a president’s constitutional authority to govern the nation given him by the WHOLE country is beyond absurd. If 94 judges, each with their individual and varied political bias’ have authority to block the president of the United States we will never have an effective president or one that could curb the bureaucracy, the budget, or destroy the Deep State. These judges have effectively disarmed the executive branch of government something our Founders would have never tolerated. Yet they have poised themselves to block everything he advocates.
Elon Musk said it best, “If ANY judge ANYWHERE can block EVERY Presidential order EVERYWHERE, we do NOT have a democracy, we have Tyranny of the JUDICIARY.” (X, on X22 Report, Ep. 3582b, Feb. 26, 2025, 50:44). He added, “What is the point of having democratic elections if unelected judges can override the clear will of the people? Well, that’s no democracy at all. The only way to restore rule of the people in America is to impeach judges. No one is above the law judges” (Ibid., Ep. 3583b, Feb. 27, 2025, 52:36).
Musk, an admitted life-long voting Democrat until Trump, may not know that the Founding Fathers did not create a democracy, they universally opposed it. They created a republic, because the majority does not, and can not, protect minority rights. Minority is defined as less than the majority not by race. A lynch mob is a democracy. One has the right to defend himself even if he is the only one in the room who believes so. It’s base is upon natural law not numbers. The Bill of Rights is a list of rights demanded by the people—even FROM THE MAJORITY.
One has the right to defend himself from violence or otherwise, even if he is the only one in the room who believes so. The Bill of Rights is a list of rights demanded by the people—even FROM THE MAJORITY.
But Musk did provide a constitutional solution to the tyranny of the judiciary problem—impeachment. But that would be way too time consuming, look bad, and be divisive for the nation. It is much better to get the matter before the Supreme Court and have a single rule nation wide on existing judicial tyranny and its usurping of constitutional executive branch authority.
However we do not have to wait until the Supreme Court can rule or even until Congress can stand together against judicial tyranny, it is law already on the books. There exists a solution right now ready for Attorney General Pam Bondi to implement. “A single district judge has issued a ruling blocking the executive branch from access to Treasury data,” something vital for the Executive Branch to know to govern fiscally and prudently. “There’s a simple fix: DOJ should demand injunction bonds. Under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure, 65(c), judges can issue injunctions ‘only if’ the suing party post a bond to cover potential damages if they’re wrong. But …this rule is hardly used.… Frivolous lawsuits become a financial risk, not a free pass. The best part? This doesn’t block activists from court, it just stops them from using preliminary injunctions to pause government action based on arguments that might not hold up in an appellate court.” (Thepoliticsbrief.com, Dan Huff, Feb. 15, 2025. Also the kylebecker.com, Feb. 15, 2025).
The Constitution is supposed to protect the innocent. Love him, like him, only tolerate him, or hate him, no phrase in that document can justify what they did to Trump in 2024 nor gives a district judge ANY independent authority over the executive branch of the United States.

The Deep State knew that virtually none of their causes could be funded directly through the constitutional funding process, “All bills for raising revenue must begin in the House of Representatives,” because their shadow government is no way constitutional (U.S. Constitution, Article 1, Section 7). Congress does indeed raise the money under some general category, and a portion of it does go to the cause intended by them but too often much of it is actually laundered elsewhere as for example, hidden to the public, bio labs in Ukraine. Thus they created the USAID process now well known to fund their nefarious purposes. Hence, when Elon Musk, head of the Department of Government Efficiency reported, “Did you know that USAID, using YOUR tax dollars, funded bioweapon research, including COVID-19, that killed millions of people?” It shocked the nation.
A 2017 photograph inside a Wuhan China lab. The same thing was happening in the bio labs built by the DOD in Ukraine with like experiments to artificially induce evolution known as gain of function. The problem with this is that in order to preemptively create the vaccines and study the pathogens, scientists essentially have to first create a bio weapon in the lab making these pathogen infections to humans. Creating killer viruses to humans that could escape the lab, as happened with COVID-19, is a crime against humanity and should merit the death penalty.
By way of review we now know that the USAID takes the money and when possible gives it to well connected Non Governmental Organizations (NGOs), they place it into a DAF (Donor-Advised Funds) to fund other NGOs. Reportedly, the Deep State can fund any cause they like, and do, without ANY further Congressional approval or real oversight.
One presumed member of the DOGE team, (pseudo named DataRepublican), explained it this way, “It’s important to understand that funding is fungible, meaning USAID dollars do not directly flow into these NGOs in a literal sense. Instead, the money moves through multiple layers, with various entities handling, and re-distributing it. For example, CEPPS [The Consortium for Elections and Political Process Strengthening] receives substantial USAID funds for global initiatives, but ultimately channels much of it to partisan NGOs, rather than focusing solely on individual grants. It’s more important to recognize the pattern of funding distribution influence. Donor Advised Funds (DAF) are a big part of the equation” (X22 Report-hereafter not cited, Ep. 3565b, Feb. 6, 2025, 30:10). Eventually it goes through enough layers, diffused and reduced sufficiently (laundered) enough to go into favored individuals shell accounts as payoffs without being easily detected.” Is this how and why so many in government with public servant salaries became millionaires? (See, “Who is Receiving ‘Kick Backs’ from Non Government Organizations,” LibertyUnderFire.org, Feb. 19, 2025).
We go to Clandestine, an investigative reporter, for how this happened respecting taxpayers funding of COVID-19 as Elon Musk made known. In Deep State circles it was called PROJECT PREDICT. “Now that the world is keen to the USAID, it’s time to go over the big secret they are desperate to keep from the public—Project Predict. This is the USAID funded project that led to the creation of SARS-Covid-2 and the Covid pandemic. This is what Elon was alluding to.
“USAID PREDICT began in 2009, was carried out in 30 countries around the globe, and was supposed to be a means to preemptively stop pandemics from zoonotic diseases, jumping from animal to human. The concept was to artificially induce evolution, or enhance the function of naturally existing pathogens like bird flu, bat coronaviruses and study them, and have vaccines prepared should one of these viruses mutate in the wild and jump to humans. The problem with this system is that in order to preemptively create the vaccines and study the pathogens, scientists essentially have to create a bio weapon in the lab when making these pathogen infections to humans; also known as gain of function or direct evolution. The projects core replicating partners are USAID, EcoHealth Alliance, UC Davis, MetaBiota, Hunter Biden, Wild Life Consortium Society, [and the] Smithsonian Institute.
Map shows 15 bio labs locations in Ukraine most, if not all, built by the U.S. Department of Defense. Elon Musk, head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) reported, “Did you know that USAID, using YOUR tax dollars, funded bioweapon research, including COVID-19, that killed millions of people?” “One of the partner organizations that receive[d] funding to carry out this project, MetaBiota, a bio lab company, was funded by Hunter Biden’s Rosemont Seneca. The owner, CEO, and head virologist behind MetaBiota, is Nathan Wolfe, who, in addition to the Biden’s, is financially tied to the Clinton’s and Epstein accomplants, Ghislaine Maxwell.”
“One of the partner organizations that receive[d] funding to carry out this project, MetaBiota, a bio lab company, was funded by Hunter Biden’s Rosemont Seneca. The owner, CEO, and head virologist behind MetaBiota, is Nathan Wolfe, who, in addition to the Biden’s is financially tied to the Clinton’s and Epstein accomplants, Ghislaine Maxwell via project TerraMar. Wolfe calls himself Virus Hunter, and wrote the book The Viral Storm: The Dawn of a New Pandemic Age, 2011, which he predicted that [the] future would be fraught with pandemics, and the only way to prevent it is to give him millions of dollars to look for Zoonotic diseases to produce vaccines….
“But everything changed in 2014. After the Obama CIA/State Dept. took over Ukraine via color revolution, MetaBiota was awarded their USAID/DOD contracts to begin searching for bat coronavirus and operating labs in Ukraine via Project PREDICT. All of this is open source information required by law and is available on USA Spending Government page.”
So Clandestine asks, “What does this all mean? It means that a Clinton, Epstein, and Biden-affiliated neurologist, was given tens of millions of US tax dollars via USAID, to look for, and genetically enhance bat coronaviruses in Ukraine, right before a man-made bat coronavirus started a global pandemic and killed millions of people… And we have emails from Hunter’s laptop proving that Hunter was in extremely close contact with Nathan Wolfe and MetaBiota. None of this is conjecture, and is backed up by a paper trail.”
This is the big secret. “The ruling families of the DNC are financially involved in USAID (CIA) projects that were enhancing bat coronaviruses before the C-19 pandemic, and they went great lengths to cover this up. This is ultimately where the road ends. The Deep State created C-19 with US taxpayer dollars and they are guilty of crimes against humanity. That is why Fauci and NIH covered up that Covid was man-made. That is why the Dems, the main stream media, censored, smeared anyone who would talk about C-19 being man-made. That’s why the Biden regime sent hundreds of billions of dollars to Ukraine. That is why Hunter and Fauci’s pardons begin in 2014. That is why the Dems are panicking that Trump is auditing the USAID because they are implicated in crimes against humanity, and Trump and Elon have the paper trail to prove it” (Ep.3563b, Feb.4, 2025, 35:00). These same people hid ivermectin, hydroxychoriquin, and natural immunity as cures. It’s now all exposed.

The Deep State does not know how President Donald Trump is moving so quickly seemingly knowing precisely what to hit them with next. Within two weeks he was even auditing them—something never done before nor supposed possible. Those who have studied “secret combinations” of the past 100 years (Internationalists, Establishment, New World Order, Globalists, World Order and now Deep State) know exactly what he is doing and why.
DOGE finds Biden’s Ex-USAID Chief Samantha Powers’ net worth to have skyrocketed from $6.7million to $30 million in four years on a $180,000 annual salary. Elon Musk indicates that “DOGE will be investigating bureaucrats who have somehow amassed a large wealth with public servant salaries” now that “the scheme has been exposed.” Several members of Congress associated with USAID appear to have amassed great wealth as well. Deep State outlets characteristically deny the allegations.
He had over 10 years to watch the Deep State up close and personal. He saw how they treated him as an outsider before and after his election in 2016, then as president, he had access to all their secret (classified) documents his 1st term, followed by a Coup election ending with Joe Biden as the White House resident. Biden himself ordered the raid on Trump’s home, Mar-A-Lago, and weaponized the FBI, DOJ, and judicial system to destroy him.
Trump first placed the illegal criminal element on the run by Border Czar Tom Homan, that likely otherwise would have been used by the Deep State for street chaos. Then he took away their security passes (Biden had taken Trump’s January 2021) so they could not know and use state intel information against him, then their funding through their “USAID” was exposed, and now their money laundering system through corrupt Non Government Organizations (NGO). Trump took the offense, the Deep State defense. It’s all coming to light, this column is on NGOs.
According to the State Department, approximately “1.5 million NGO’s are operating in the United States” All of these feeding directly or indirectly off taxpayer dollars (Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) in the United States, Jan. 20, 2025). It is important to recognize that not all, probably not more than a few thousand of these are dishonest or are knowingly attempting to destroy America. But NGO’s need to make certain they are not assisting the Deep State laundering system. We support Congressman Thomas Massie’s definition of an NGO. He wrote, “If cutting government funding shuts down an NGO, it is not, and never was a Non Governmental Organization” (Thomas Massie, X, Feb. 12, 2025).
This reminds us of a statement by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, “We know that they are stealing. They know that they are stealing. They even know that we know they are stealing. But they are still stealing”(X22 Report -hereafter not cited-Ep. 3570b, Feb. 12, 2025, 33:31).
Elon Musk indicates that “DOGE will be investigating bureaucrats who have somehow amassed a large wealth with public servant salaries” now that “the scheme has been exposed.” Highly visible examples of these are “Nancy Pelosi annual salary $223,000, net worth: $202 million. Mitch McConnell annual salary $200,000, net worth: $95 million. Chuck Schumer annual salary: $210,000, net worth: $75 million. Elizabeth Warren annual salary $285, 000, net worth: $67 million. [She] flies on a private jet.” (@ Elon Musk @ DOGE, Ep. 3570b, Ibid., 37:05).
Anthony Fauci and Schumer are of special interest to the government department on efficiency. Fauci’s net worth surged during Covid and he became a multimillionaire. And Chuck Schumer sponsored the Inflation Reduction Act, which allotted the IRS “$80 Billion to hire 87,000 agents to AUDIT the American people,” yet hypocritically he objects to the audit of USAID which is likely the source of his surge in personal gain (Ep. 3570b, Feb. 12, 2025, 38:31).
Whether actually said by Truman or not most believe the above true. There is extreme panic in Washington DC. All of this “has spawned a 400% rise since Dec. 1, 2024 in Google searches for defense lawyers in the District of Columbia—five times higher then any other place in the country.” Googles biggest requested word search was “bleach bit” made famous by Hillary Clinton when she used it to wipe clean everything electronic in her home, presumable to conceal criminal activity. Me thinks others want to purchase it for the same purpose.
So these have a net worth far beyond reason from their salary base. President Trump says “he is ‘completely certain his administration has discovered widespread kickbacks in the federal government.’ Trump said ‘he examined a list of 200 expenditures and found only three that look reasonable. There is no chance that there’s not kickbacks or something going on. They are taking massive amounts of money and spending it on items’” (WATCH: Trump “Completely Certain” There Is MASSIVE KICKBACKS in Federal Spending, Yeshiva World News, Feb. 12, 2025).
And there are other less famous members of Congress of interest to the DOGE, as for example, Rep. Jasmine Crockett who has “a reported net worth of $9 million despite being paid $174,000 a year. Crockett owns a $2 million townhouse in Dallas, $1.5 million loft in Austin, Texas, $1.5 million lakefront cabin in Galveston, Texas. Crockett’s net worth grew substantially last year during the 2024 election where she became an overnight star for the DNC.” Crockett says it’s “a lie” her net is “between -$46,997 and $29,999.” (Lead Stories Fact Check, Dana Ford, 02/14/25).
DOGE News reports, “This is the Government Accountability Office Building (pictured). They are suppose to do what DOGE does. They currently employ 3,275 people that do nothing” in “a very big building. DOGE just has a few college kids.” Then Elon observes, “It’s almost like there’s a massive “uniparty” grift machine here in DC” and shared the following analogy, “You own a store. Your store gets robbed. Elon looks at the video footage of the robbery and tells you who did it. Now, you want to arrest Elon.” Democrat, past president, Harry S. Truman said it best. “You can’t get rich in Politics unless you’re a Crook” (Ep. 3572b, Feb. 14, 2025, 34:47).
There is extreme panic in Washington DC. All of this “has spawned a 400% rise since Dec. 1, 2024 in Google searches for defense lawyers in the District of Columbia—five times higher then any other place in the country” (Brooks Dailey, Ibid., 33:36). Google searches exploded in the following word searches: other than criminal defense lawyers, “RICO law, Swiss bank, IBAN, offshore bank, wire money, statute of limitations.” And the biggest one of all “bleach bit.” Why bleach bit? “Hillary Clinton used bleach bit inside her home to wipe everything electronic in her home. This way they couldn’t be tracked.” These people allegedly knowingly stole from the taxpayer some even participated in a successful Coup d’état against Donald Trump —TREASON. They know it, Trump knows it, and now a majority of the people know it.
