Don’t Drop The Soap, Buddy

Hasan Piker is in BIG TROUBLE – and he’s freaking out. The US Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control has subpoenaed Hasan over his March trip to communist Cuba. Quote: “it’s not great that they’re after your boy, they’re up my a**.”

The sanctions he may have violated are serious — staying at a hotel on the US government’s Cuba Restricted List carries up to $91,000 per violation in civil penalties. Willful violations carry criminal fines up to $250,000 and up to 10 years in prison. He told his audience the government shouldn’t imprison him because “is this helpful for you if I go to prison? No, it’s not.” Compelling legal argument.

He also blamed Israel – yes, really. He said “a lot of this does still have a lot to do with Israel” and then did not explain how. Uncle Cenk from the Young Turks jumped in to confirm the noose is being tightened on speech – and also something about Israel. Then a Fox News reporter crashed the stream to tell him his dog needs a new home.

Meanwhile Legal Mindset points out that every clip of Hasan broadcasting from Cuba, staying at a five star hotel that was the only lit building in Havana, using Starlink he said he wouldn’t use, and making a Cuban kid dance for hotel cookies is him being his own star witness.

The man who is known for reveling in the downfall of his political opponents is now facing his own downfall – and it is funny. You get what you deserve, Hasan. Here’s more from Bearing.

Why The Deep State Is Losing?

Barbara Boyd argues Tulsi Gabbard’s resignation as DNI was driven by a family medical crisis—her husband Abraham Williams’ diagnosis with a rare bone cancer—and not by Iran-policy disputes, while claiming Reuters and online narratives framed it as an Intelligence Community “victory.” Boyd says Gabbard’s work centered on declassifications tied to Russiagate, the 2019 impeachment effort, 2020 election issues, Havana Syndrome, and directed energy allegations, amid reported pressure on her office.

The episode also covers a Senate confrontation with Acting AG Todd Blanche over Trump’s proposed $1.776B Anti-Weaponization Fund to compensate victims of “lawfare,” and portrays Trump as politically disciplining RINO opponents ahead of the midterms.

Finally, Boyd highlights Kevin Warsh’s swearing-in as Fed chair, his call for “regime change” at the Fed via balance-sheet reduction and rate policy, and cites Treasury- and agency-linked equity stakes and loans aimed at rebuilding U.S. industry outside traditional Fed/Congress channels.

End Of The Endless Wars?

Has President Donald Trump run an end game against the endless wars? Will we see a more stable and peaceful Middle East in the aftermath of the Iranian War? Has Trump defanged the Mullahs by stripping away their weaponry as well as their capacity to build new bombs, drones, planes and war ships?

How about NATO? None of America’s NATO’s allies took part in the Iran War, and some of those nations — like Great Britain, France and Spain — actually thwarted the U.S. military. There’s no reason whatsoever to continue making payments to NATO. We should reserve our spending for European defense for those nations like Poland, Hungary  and the Slovak Republic that actually support the United States and have shown they are serious about maintaining a defensive posture.

Is Trump also ready to end the Federal Reserve? Will the U.S. Treasury become our federal government’s financial agent, rather than allowing central bankers to make huge bundles off the taxpayers’ dollars?

Pray! There’s plenty more in this new edition from And We Know, including a look at the rogue judges who occupy so many of our nation’s courts, as well as penal institutions, among them Alcatraz.

 

Feds Smack Down Leftist Thugs

Justice appears to be accelerating as federal investigators widen their focus on election integrity, fraud, and attacks on federal agents. Late last night, the FBI executed a court-authorized federal search warrant at the Fulton County Elections Hub and Operations Center in Union City, Georgia, just outside Atlanta. The warrant targeted 2020 general election materials, including physical ballots, ballot envelopes, ballot images, voting machine tabulator tapes, and voter registration records.

According to copies of the federal criminal warrant, agents were authorized to seize records tied to federal election laws under Title 52, including statutes governing record retention, fraudulent ballots, false registrations, and voter intimidation. The warrant was approved by U.S. Magistrate Judge Catherine Salinas of the Northern District of Georgia, a key detail confirming that a judge reviewed evidence and found probable cause for the seizure. The FBI described the operation as “court-authorized law enforcement activity,” while Fulton County officials criticized the move as politically motivated, even as key details remain sealed under federal procedure.

Adding to the significance, the Director of National Intelligence—the nation’s highest intelligence official outside the president—was reportedly present at the site, drawing intense scrutiny and fueling speculation about the broader scope of the investigation.

At the same time, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that 16 individuals have already been arrested in Minnesota in connection with riots, fraud, and attacks on federal officers, with the Department of Justice and FBI coordinating a much larger wave of arrests. Officials say these actions are part of an expanding federal crackdown.

President Donald Trump has reinforced that message, stating that while some ICE operations are being adjusted, fraud investigations remain “pedal to the metal.” Trump vowed the administration will continue pursuing corrupt insiders, criminal networks, and anyone stealing taxpayer money until the schemes are dismantled.

Meanwhile, lawmakers are pointing to international money trails, with claims that foreign billionaires may have financed unrest in Minnesota and beyond. Members of Congress say while suspects abroad may be beyond physical reach, U.S. Treasury powers could be used to freeze assets, escalating pressure as investigations intensify.

Watch Out For Bank Failures!

Look for an escalation in the number of bank failures in the coming months. Here, money manager Ed Dowd explains why the banks are “upside down” and how the U.S. Treasury has been trying its best to camouflage the risks, but won’t save all of the banks.

Dowd believes the economy could tank at any time. Already, lower-income residents and the middle class are struggling to survive.  The economy will continue to deteriorate through the 2024 election. Dowd speaks with Greg Hunter on USAWatchdog.com.

Banking Crisis Worsens!

Josh Sigurdson reports that the banking crisis continues to worsen, despite the absurd claims from J.P. Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon that the economy and markets are “very very sound.”

As First Republic Bank collapses and bank runs continue across the board, Janet Yellen warns that the U.S. Treasury will be bankrupt by June if the debt ceiling isn’t raised. Here’s Sigurdson with more.
