BREAKING: @DNIGabbard “Actively Working to Declassify” Directed Energy Weapon and COVID-19 Information Before June 30 Departure As Watchdog Group Sues Multiple Government Agencies Over Alleged Cover-Up

This week on Straight to the Point, I sat down with Chris Farrell, Director of Investigations and Research at @JudicialWatch for an in-depth interview on the watchdog's new Freedom of Information Act lawsuit against the DOJ/FBI,CIA, DoD, Homeland Security and ODNI for Directed Energy Weapon (DEW) records including the reported purchase of a device by Homeland Security Investigations.

Farrell says the intelligence agencies are “stonewalling” the release of information related to Judicial Watch’s February 2026 FOIA requests that followed our team's exclusive investigations with DEW attack survivors. Farrell argues their non-response, combined with years of reported gaslighting of injured government employees and civilians could reveal a coordinated effort to conceal the facts of directed energy weapon attacks – also known as Havana Syndrome or Anomalous Health Incidents (AHIs) - including questions about foreign technology and why some government personnel may have been deployed to the same high-risk locations.

Farrell told us that DNI Tulsi Gabbard and the White House have the discretionary authority to release the records immediately without waiting for litigation.

An ODNI Spokesperson said “As DNI Gabbard told Chairman Crawford during the Annual Threat Assessment hearing in March, she believes the Biden-era ICA[Intelligent Community Assessment] on AHIs should be retracted.”

Asked if Gabbard would release reports before she leaves, an ODNI official said “She is actively working to declassify information about the COVID-19 pandemic and Anomalous Health Incidents before June 30.”

Asked about alleged CIA spying on Gabbard’s investigative team, an ODNI official said, “We have confirmed that the Intelligence Community Inspector General is aware of the allegations and is working, alongside ODNI and interagency partners, to uncover the truth about any potential wrongdoing.”

A CIA official said the agency “has been and will continue to be supportive of any IG investigation into past conduct by the CIA on this issue.”

The CIA official disputed allegations that the agency had frustrated the investigation by DNI Gabbard’s team: "CIA worked to provide the DIG with access to information responsive to the Executive Orders prior to its disbandment by the DNI.”

On AHIs or Havana Syndrome, the CIA official said the CIA Director “...has been clear, including in sworn testimony before Congress, that CIA defers to ODNI leading an interagency analytic review of AHIs.”

...Whatever comes from this political gambit, the first priority should be the passage of a bill that freezes congressional pay during full or partial shutdowns. Most citizens consider the Coast Guard, DHS, and TSA a greater priority for funding than the 535 members of Congress.

'DEVASTATING': Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy identified the victim doused in gasoline and set on fire while riding a Chicago train, as 26-year-old Bethany MaGee, who suffered severe burns in the attack and remains in critical condition.

Duffy blasted the city’s lax crime policies, saying the attack, allegedly carried out by a career criminal with 72 prior arrests, never should have happened.

The Federal government computers & software are in such bad shape that they often cannot verify that payments are not fraud, waste or abuse!

That’s why the government can’t pass basic audits. They often LITERALLY don’t know where your tax dollars went. It’s insane.

My preferred title in the new administration is Volunteer IT Consultant. Need to fix the IT infrastructure in order to make government work. This is a grind & hardly glorious, but we can’t make government efficient & fix the deficit if the computers don’t work.

I was only 13 when this took place, but "Love Valley" was still going on when I moved to NC in 1983. No matter what the occasion, it was a good time.
