For those who don’t like my “complicated” explanations of our complex 20yr agenda in the Middle East, here’s an easy 3-step way to see that Mike Flynn is part of this shadow policy agenda.
Step 1. Mike Flynn, Bijan Kian, and James Woolsey all worked together at Flynn Intel Group.
Now back to Woolsey:
“Woolsey was a member of Flynn's firm, the Flynn Intel Group, according to a Justice Department filing by the firm and an archive of the company's website”

Oil tycoon Jeffery Hildebrand gave millions to Donald Trump’s 2024 election campaign.
He is set to reap a financial windfall as the EPA moves to weaken restrictions on wells like his that produce very little energy but release vast amounts of methane.

Because AI is part of the transition away from democracy and toward petro fascism in preparation for climate collapse and the global resource war with China.

A federal judge in Virginia will allow a lawsuit to proceed challenging the Trump's plans for a $1.8 billion fund for alleged victims of political “weaponization,” despite statements from US officials that the plan won’t move forward https://t.co/pkhvMId03V
BREAKING: Ohio secretly gave 100% sales tax breaks, lasting up to 40 years, to tech giants for data centers, per https://t.co/9Wr6itu0Jb.
The exemptions—signed by Gov. Kasich—give Google, Meta and Amazon at least $600 million each.
Legislators say the contracts can't be undone.
Prosecutors initially had the blessing of a Trump appointee to move forward with the investigation into Justice’s companies, but this spring, the Office of the Deputy Attorney General intervened to shut the probe down.

Make no mistake: The US government will socialize the immense costs of subprime AI. They will force us all to eat the losses, while the perpetrators of the biggest fraud in history abscond to private islands. Be ready, because a deliberate rug-pull is the plan.
FBI records obtained through a Judicial Watch lawsuit reveal that a Butler County Sheriff’s deputy exchanged two emails with Trump shooter Thomas Crooks before the July 13, 2024 assassination attempt. The records remain heavily redacted, concealing the nature of the communications. The documents also reveal a SWAT officer recovered a cell phone and a remote device with an antenna from Crooks after he was killed.
Under Trump, the wars will continue—from Chicago to Caracas. It’s not a reckless adventure; it’s all part of the plan.
Until Trump says it isn’t. https://t.co/oOkWalX4SY
A US group founded to “enhance Israel’s image” & staffed by ex-Israeli officials (including Netanyahu’s negotiator who got US to send $3.8B per year to Israel) is revealed to have helped blueprint the new Republican push to fuse the Israeli & US militaries.https://t.co/t0lJM3FeaW
Craig Spence was a CIA asset whose private parties drew CIA Dir. William Casey, & a friend Roy Cohn. His associate Larry King ran the Franklin Credit Union as an Iran-Contra money-laundering op within what Atty John DeCamp called an international crime syndicate/child abuse ring.
One of his best accounts was Schenley Industries Inc., the large national liquor manufacturer and a former client of his father. While the younger Kennedy was the company’s lobbyist, its founder was investigated by a New York state panel for alleged links to organized crime…
🚨BREAKING: In Chicago, ICE agents were caught on video assaulting a local chaplain for filming, and asking questions, about what was happening on her own street… AFTER the arrest was already made.
In the video, Alley Henny, a Black chaplain, is standing with her back against a parked car while recording.
An ICE agent is already pushing her backward as she simply asks:
“What did he do?”
But here’s what makes this situation even more disturbing…
The man had already been detained… He was already INSIDE the ICE vehicle.
The arrest was over.
That means, there was no active arrest taking place for her to “interfere with.”
Yet, multiple agents surrounded her anyway.
One agent yells, “Get back! We have a warrant for his arrest. Get out of here.”
She responds, “This is my neighborhood.”
The agent’s response?
“I don’t care.”
Then, while she’s already backed against a car, and surrounded by TWO agents… a THIRD agent rushes over, grabs her, and forcefully shoves her down the street while screaming, “GET BACK! I ALREADY TOLD YOU ONCE!”
And just to be clear…
She wasn’t stopping an arrest.
She wasn’t obstructing agents from reaching a suspect.
She wasn’t preventing agents from taking someone into custody.
The suspect was ALREADY IN THE VEHICLE.
So, this entire situation raises serious concerns about excessive force and retaliation against protected speech.
Because once the situation is already controlled, there’s no reason for that level of force against someone who’s just recording and asking questions.
And if that kind of response isn’t checked, and held accountable, it starts to send a very dangerous message…
That recording and questioning government actions can be met with physical violence, and intimidation.
And that’s exactly what the constitution is meant to prevent.
Scoop from me and @CarolLeonnig:
Kash Patel fired a group of FBI intelligence analysts Friday over a rescinded 2023 memo citing “radical traditionalist Catholic ideology” that has long been a focus of MAGA activists despite an investigation that found no anti-Catholic bias, three people familiar with the matter told MS Now.
At least five analysts were let go, the sources said. The analysts worked in the FBI’s Richmond office, where the memo originated.
It was titled, “Interest of Racially or Ethnically Motivated Violent Extremists in Radical-Traditionalist Catholic Ideology Almost Certainly Presents New Mitigation Opportunities.”
The memo argued that some white supremacists and racially motivated violent extremists were attempting to recruit a small subset of "radical traditionalist Catholics" and suggested that Catholic congregations could present opportunities for intelligence gathering.
After it became public, then-FBI Director Christopher Wray ordered it withdrawn. He apologized for it in several Congressional hearings, saying it didn’t meet the the FBI’s standards. Then Attorney General Merrick Garland called it “appalling.”
A review in 2024 by the Justice Department’s Inspector General found no evidence of anti-Catholic bias or bad intent on the part of the FBI personnel who prepared the memo. But the IG concluded it suffered from significant analytical problems and poor tradecraft.
Some if the information in the memo came from the Southern Poverty Law Center, an anti-extremist organization that which is now the subject of a deeply controversial fraud indictment.
Republicans and MAGA activists have seized on the memo for years as evidence that the FBI was targeting Catholics, despite the inspector general’s findings.
The FBI declined to comment.

On Saturday, while covering a protest at Delaney Hall for the AP, Angelina Katsanis' camera bag went missing.
Inside was $10K worth of gear, her biz cards and an Airtag -- which soon began to ping from home of a NJ sergeant. He's now facing charges.
