  • Las Vegas teen dies after getting ambushed and fatally beaten by 15 people

    LAS VEGAS (TCD) — A 17-year-old high school student died Monday after he was beaten by a large group of peers who caused him “substantial bodily injury,” which led him to being put on life support.

    According to Las Vegas Metro Police, on Nov. 1 at 2:05 p.m., officers responded to the 1900 block of Searles Avenue after receiving reports about a fight. The incident occurred near a school, and officials administered CPR on the unconscious teen. Medics transported him to a nearby hospital with life-threatening injuries.

    KLAS-TV identified the victim as 17-year-old Jonathan Lewis and said the fight occurred close to Rancho High School.

    Las Vegas Metro Police said in the news release that investigators determined Lewis had been involved in a fight with 15 other people prior to officers arriving at the scene.

    KLAS reports Lewis died several days after the attack when he was taken off life support. The coroner determined his cause of death was multiple blunt force injuries.

    Lewis’ father, who is also named Jonathan Lewis, wrote on his son’s GoFundMe page, “We have been given a statement from our son’s girlfriend that what occurred was that one of his smaller friends had something stolen by this group of 15 and they threw the small boy in the trash can and our son confronted them and he was attacked by them. He’s a courageous young man.”

    Jonathan Lewis the father said he and his family “denounce violence as a means to resolve sociological conflict, we believe community members can coexist peacefully, and we love our son and all children with all our hearts.”

    The Las Vegas Metro Police Department’s Homicide Unit is investigating.

  • Barbra Streisand Threatens To Leave US If Trump Is Re-Elected: ‘Can’t Live In This Country’

    Barbra Streisand slams 'racist border wall' - instantly regrets it

    Hollywood star Barbra Streisand declared she “can’t live in this country” if Donald Trump is re-elected in 2024, adding that she thinks President Joe Biden has “done a good job” because “he’s smart.”

    “I will move. I can’t live in this country if he became president,” Streisand said regarding the prospect of a second Trump presidency during an interview with The Late Show host Stephen Colbert.

    After Colbert asked her where she would live if not the United States, the “Woman in Love” singer said, “Probably to England. I like England.” Watch:



    Streisand went on to say that the political climate in the United States is “bad.”

    “Well, I like Biden. I think he’s done a good job,” she added. “I think he’s compassionate. He’s smart. He supports the right things.”

    The Grammy winner also responded to a question from Colbert about the rise of antisemitism in the United States.

    “It’s so sad,” she said. “It’s so sad what’s going on today — meaning, people have to live together, even though they are different religions, or whatever. People are people. It’s true. You know, we all want the same thing. We all want love in our hearts, we all want family.”

    TRENDING: WEF Insiders Jump Ship As Prosecutors Prepare Nuremberg 2.0 Trials

    Streisand continued: “We all want to feel secure. I hope for the best because this is heartbreaking, what’s happening now with these people — the children, the mothers — it doesn’t matter what religion they are. Do you know what I mean? This is beyond religion. This is insanity for us not to learn how to live together in peace.”

    “You see, this is why it’s hard to talk about my career or even my book when this deadly combustible thing is happening in the world,” she added. “I could easily cry about this. Where is God in this time? Where is he or she? Why can’t that energy stop this madness?”

    Streisand had been talking to Colbert about her new memoir, My Name is Barbra.

    In her book, Streisand called President Trump “completely unfit” to be commander in chief while simultaneously praising her friends Bill and Hillary Clinton as “the most appealing couple.”

  • Fulton County Elections Board Discovers “Missing” Ballots from November Election

    The Fulton County elections board has confirmed the discovery of “missing” ballots from Tuesday’s election.

    The discovered batches of Advance Voting Ballots, or early in-person ballots, were missed during the November 7 election, but were found during the recount on Monday.

    According to a notice posted on the Fulton County election board’s website, the recount was performed “to confirm the accuracy of the election results before Election certification.”

    The preliminary ballot tally for early voting is expected to be finalized by the Fulton County elections board in the afternoon.

    Williams stated during the Tuesday meeting that the early voting ballot tally will be finalized by the afternoon and that a record of the incident will be maintained to prevent a recurrence in the upcoming election cycle.

    On Tuesday, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger (R) issued the following statement to Just the News: “This is exactly why we have an auditable paper ballot system. When a county like Fulton makes a mistake, the system can be audited and corrected before certification.”

    BRE Chair Patrise Perkins-Hooker said about the ballots: “The recount will not delay our certification. We will be certifying the election in 45 minutes or so. The second recount was undertaken to verify the accuracy of the Advanced Voting ballots which did not agree in the first recount with the election day totals. It was only 300 ballots off. This error was the result of a group of ballots in one box not being scanned in last night. The oversight was caught last night and today’s recount was called.”

    Last week, Becker News reported that two high-powered criminal defense attorneys suddenly filed a motion to withdraw from a 2020 election case amid questions about “missing” ballots.

    Criminal Defense Attorneys Donald F. Samuel and Amanda R. Clark Palmer have motioned to withdraw themselves from the Favorito v. Wan case, according to the motion.

    Rasmussen speculated that the lawyers reportedly motioning to withdraw may have something to do with “missing” mail ballots.

    “These 150,000 still secret 2020 unfolded mail ballots with the perfect ovals protected by court order for 3 years may have gone missing, and the county’s lawyers have just quit,” Rasmussen posted on X.

    It is not clear why the lawyers are withdrawing from the case. Becker News has reached out to the law firm Garland, Samuel and Loeb for comment and will update accordingly.

    Human Events, however, had earlier reported on the 147,000 mail-in ballots controversy:

    Fulton County poll manager Suzi Voyles was sorting through a large stack of mail-in ballots last November when she noticed something odd: several ballots marked for Joe Biden were extremely similar. 

    One after another, the votes contained perfectly filled ovals for Biden. What’s more, each of the bubbles boasted an identical white void inside them in the shape of a tiny crescent, indicating they’d been marked with toner ink instead of a pen or pencil, per the Epoch Times. 

    Voyles also noticed that all of the ballots were printed on different paper than the others she’d counted and none were folded or creased, which is standard for mail-in ballots as they come from envelopes. 

    “All of them were strangely pristine,” Voyles said. She noted that she’d never seen anything like it in her 20 years monitoring elections in Fulton County. 

    All but three of the 110 ballots in the stack – which had been labeled “State Farm Arena” – were marked for Biden and appeared to be “identical ballots.”

    “We have what is almost surely major absentee-ballot fraud in Fulton County involving 10,000 to 20,000 probably false ballots,” claimed Garland Favorito, the lead petitioner in the case and a certified poll watcher.

    “We have confirmed that there are five pallets of shrink-wrapped ballots in a county warehouse,” he said.

    In addition, there are massive chain-of-custody issues in Georgia related to ballot images.

    Seventy-four of Georgia’s counties have not been able to produce original images of ballots from the November 2020 election, according to VoterGA, an election integrity nonprofit organization.

    The group received confirmation through Open Records Requests (ORRs) from 56 counties that either most or all of the images that the voting machine system automatically created for tabulating results have been destroyed.

    “At least 28 counties admitted having no original images at all and 22 of those counties only had recount images that some claimed are the same as originals,” as reported by non-profit group VoterGA.

    The Associated Press did not deny the substance of the reports in a “fact check,” but merely rejected the narrative that the missing ballot images “proved” voter fraud.

    It will also be challenging for “fact checkers” to dismiss questions about “missing ballots” in the 2023 election, when Fulton County’s own election board confirmed it in a recount.

  • 80-year-old arrested 38 years after allegedly fatally shooting woman in the head amid love triangle

    POLK COUNTY, Wis. (TCD) — An 80-year-old woman was taken into custody in Arizona on suspicion of shooting and killing a woman in a nearly 40-year-old cold case.

    WEAU-TV reports the Polk County Sheriff’s Office announced Mary Jo Bailey was arrested in Maricopa County, Arizona, in connection with Yvonne Menke’s unsolved death from 1985. Wisconsin court records show Bailey is charged with first-degree murder.

    According to the Polk County cold case unit, Menke was fatally shot in the early morning hours of Dec. 12, 1985, in St. Croix Falls. She sustained three gunshot wounds to the head and neck while leaving for work. A witness reportedly saw a person of interest wearing a gray coat and dark hat flee the area.

    The affidavit shared by WEAU says one of Menke’s daughters told investigators Menke had an on and off relationship with a man named Jack Owen, though they had issues because he reportedly had a “‘roving eye’ and was always looking the ladies over.” Owen reportedly also had a relationship with a woman named Mary Jo, but the daughter did not know Mary Jo’s last name at the time.

    The daughter reportedly said the “relationship with Mary Jo had caused problems between Jack and her mother.”

    At the scene, investigators reportedly noticed a shoe print in the snow with the word “Arctic” near the heel. The print reportedly followed the direction where the suspect fled following the shooting.

    According to the affidavit, Menke was killed on a staircase near the parking garage. Based on Menke’s injuries and locations of the gunshots, investigators said the suspect “would have been positioned above Menke’s body at the time and/or positioned near Menke’s head, indicating that the suspect walked up the stairs, walked over a portion of Yvonne Menke’s body, and then fired two additional rounds into the side of Menke’s head.”

    She was shot with a .22 caliber gun.

    Owen reportedly said he learned about Menke’s death from a bank teller the same day.

    The affidavit says investigators learned Owen, Menke, and Bailey, who was known as Mary Jo Lunsmann at the time, were “involved in somewhat of a ‘love triangle.’” Owen reportedly simultaneously dated Bailey and Menke, and both couples often broke up, but “always seemed to rekindle their relationship(s).”

    Officers spoke with Menke the day after the shooting, and she allegedly started crying. She allegedly said she and Owen stopped seeing each other “on a steady basis” three years prior. She said she saw Owen of Dec. 10, but only because they share an interest in horses. She said she and Menke talked on the phone once “about Jack and his behavior.”

    She described the talk as “good” because until then, “neither one of them knew where the other stood.”

    Menke told officers she owned a .22 caliber pistol that her ex allegedly gave to her. She also showed them a pair of Arctic Cat boots, which matched the shoe prints found at the scene.

    One witness allegedly told police they “believed Mary Jo was capable of killing Yvonne.” The day before the shooting, Bailey reportedly became upset with Owen because he did not invite her to his birthday party, and a few days before that, Owen and Menke were seen in public together.

    The witness “speculated that whoever killed Yvonne Menke did it to erase competition.”

    Over the initial course of the investigation, detectives interviewed 19 people, but the case eventually went cold.

    Polk County investigators reopened Menke’s case in late 2021 and “made it a priority to locate and re-interview witnesses and others who had knowledge of Jack Owen, Mary Jo (Lunsmann) Bailey, and Yvonne Menke before, during, and after the homicide.”

    Investigators spoke with Bailey, who lives in Arizona, on Sept. 21, 2022, and continued to interview several new people, including one person who said she “always figured that Mary Jo was one who had the audacity to think she could kill someone.”

    One of the witnesses from the original investigation said Owen allegedly “couldn’t fake it anymore and wanted to be with Yvonne.”

    Bailey would allegedly call Owen, but he reportedly did not pick up or refused to see her.

    The affidavit says detectives believe the “crime and the ‘up close and personal’ attack appear to show personal knowledge and a strong emotional reaction towards Yvonne Menke.”

    Additionally, her killer was “not a stranger to Yvonne Menke, but rather someone who was aware of her and her daily habits.”

    The affidavit said that based on the witness interviews, evidence taken from the scene, and Bailey’s “suspected animosity towards Yvonne Menke,” there was enough suspected proof to issue a warrant for her arrest.

  • New York To Begin Arresting Residents Who Spread Non-Mainstream Content Online

    NYC to begin arresting citizens who spread non-mainstream content online

    The WEF-controlled city of New York has instructed police to begin arresting residents who share non-mainstream content online.

    In accordance with WEF policies, Governor Kathy Hochul has agreed to violate the U.S. constitution and crack down on so-called “hate speech” on behalf of the globalist elite.

    According to Hochul, the WEF has instructed her to begin running “surveillance efforts” to monitor the social media posts of New Yorkers to counter “hate speech.”

    NewsThud reports: Hochul spoke to the media to following a meeting with the state’s Jewish leaders, local law enforcement, and federal authorities.

    During the press conference, Hochul unveiled her plans to allegedly combat hate crimes.

    “It’s painful to me as the governor of this great state — that has been known for its diversity, and how we celebrate different cultures, different religions, different viewpoints — it’s painful to see the cruelty with which New Yorkers are treating each other,” Hochul said.

    “Everywhere from college campuses, to our streets, to schools, to playgrounds; even as they’re entering their houses of worship.”

    The governor continued by noting that she “immediately deployed the State Police to protect our synagogues and yeshivas and mosques and any other place that could be susceptible to hate crimes or violence.”

    “I also announced a significant increase in funding for our efforts: $75 million overall, $50 million for local law enforcement to beef up their efforts as well as $25 million in security grants,” she added.

    Since the October 7 terrorist attack on Israel, anti-Semitic hate incidents have soared across the country.

    In NYC, anti-Semitic attacks have increased by nearly 331 percent, according to data from the New York City Police Department (NYPD).

    Hochul went on to detail New York’s plan “to catch incitement to violence” and “direct threats to others” by monitoring social media activity.

    “We’re very focused on the data we’re collecting from surveillance efforts – what’s being said on social media platforms.

    “And we have launched an effort to be able to counter some of the negativity and reach out to people when we see hate speech being spoken about on online platforms,” Hochul said.

    She insists that no New Yorker “should feel they have to hide any indications of what their religious beliefs are.”

    WATCH:

    New York is home to around 2.2 million Jews out of a global population of around 16 million.

    Hochul has been a strong supporter of Israel’s war against the Hamas terror group.

    On October 30, Hochul visited students at Cornell University after the school’s Jewish Center received a mass shooting threat.

  • Florida teacher accused of shooting his wife, brother-in-law at wedding in Tennessee

    COOL SPRINGS, Tenn. (TCD) — Police arrested a Florida teacher who allegedly shot his wife and brother-in-law while attending a wedding over the weekend.

    According to the Franklin Police Department, on Saturday, Nov. 11, at around 9:30 p.m., officers responded to a report of a shooting at the Marriott of Cool Springs. At the scene, officers located two victims and began rendering aid. Police said the shooting suspect, 29-year-old Cody Wiggins, had fled the scene before their arrival.

  • Judicial Watch: FBI Records Show Top Officials Rushing to Craft a Response to Leaked Memo Revealing its Targeting of Catholics

    (Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that it, along with CatholicVote Civic Action,  received 131 heavily redacted pages of records from the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) showing top officials rushing to craft a public response to the leaked FBI intelligence memo that revealed its targeting of Catholics who adhere to traditional beliefs on church issues.

    Judicial Watch received the records in response to an April 2023 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit it filed along with CatholicVoteCivic Action against the FBI and the Department of Justice after their failure to respond to  March 2023 requests for records about an FBI intelligence memo targeting “radical traditionalist” Catholics (CatholicVote Civic Action and Judicial Watch, Inc. v. Federal Bureau of Investigations and Department of Justice (No. 1:23-cv-01166)).

    In February 2023, an FBI intelligence document was leaked that revealed FBI targeting of Catholics who adhere to traditional beliefs on abortion and other cultural issues. The Catholic News Agency reported: “The leaked document has been condemned by several federal and state officials, as well as clergy, including Bishop Barry Knestout of the Diocese of Richmond, who recently called the memo a ‘threat to religious liberty.’”

    The newly obtained records include a February 8, 2023, email with the subject line “Media Request: FBI Richmond Document cites SPLC” from the FBI’s National Press Office alerting FBI officials regarding media inquiries:

    We have inquiries from the Washington Examiner and The Daily Signal (Heritage Foundation) about an article written by [redacted]. It references a January intelligence product from the Richmond Field office. After speaking with SC Goodwater, I am alerting all of you so we can get a copy of the actual document and hear any recommendations on how to respond. I am attaching a cut and paste of the [redacted] article.

    Miriam Coakley of the Office of General Counsel then forwards the email on to other FBI officials, noting, “Adding InTo [Insider Threat Office], SecD [Security Division] and OPR [Office of Professional Responsibility]. The date of the leaked domain perspective appears to be 23 Jan. 2023.”

    Further along the chain, an official in the Office of Public Affairs forwards the chain to more people, saying, “Adding Pamela Bryon from the DI. [Deputy Asst. Director of Intelligence Pamela Byron.] Any info on how this product came about would be appreciated.”

    In a heavily redacted reply, Byron responds:

    As mentioned on FBINET, the type of product leaked is a Domain Perspective (DP) – the purpose of DPs is to offer information and/or highlight how a shift or new development in an AOR (domain) related to an environmental variable could impact the threat. Environmental variables include demographic shifts, technology development, economic conditions, special events, social/cultural conditions, etc. In particular the analysis in DPs (as in FBI products in general) is focused on the activity of identified or potential threat actors, not on the environmental variables themselves, and how those threat actors react to shifts in the environment, and the subsequent impact on the threat posed by those actors.

    In that context, there are a couple of things to note with this situation: [redacted].

    We stand by to assist on any other questions.

    The records include a February 9 email with the subject line “Coordination of Draft statement regarding leaked RH intel document” from Office of Public Affairs official Douglas Goodwater to top FBI officials, including FBI Chief of Staff Johathan Lenzner, Asst. Dir. for Intelligence Tonya Ugoretz, Asst. Dir. for Counterterrorism Robert Wells and others:

    Draft/pre decision, Coordination for media statement – DI/CTD/OGC [Directorate of Intelligence/Counterterrorism Division/Office of General Counsel]

    Potential statement for review/edits-: [Redacted].

    Asst. Director for Public Affairs Catherine Milhoan then responds:

    All, we have received two new inquiries in addition to the three last night and are making the decision to respond in the next hour. We want to get our statement out before this picks up any steam.

    DI/CTD/OCG,

    Please review the draft and let us know if you have any edits or concerns.

    Later in the email chain, Stanley Meador, Special Agent-in-Charge of the Richmond Field Office, replies, “Looks good. One small suggestion in yellow. I would send it out. It is migrating onto Fox. https://www.foxnews.com/media/purported-fbi-document-suggests-agency-targeting-catholics-attend-latin-mass.”

    On February 10, 2023, FBI Chief of Staff Jonathan Lenzner emails FBI colleagues with the subject “intel piece that has been withdrawn,” saying, “I don’t know if we are there yet, [redacted].”

    Lenzner then follows up on February 13, writing, “Looks like at least one religious organization is speaking out publicly: https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/catholic-league-condemns-fbi-internal-memo-targeting-catholics.”

    Ryan T. Young, the Executive Assistant Director of the Intelligence Branch replies to Lenzner, “Not a good look … Real frustrating when it is self-inflicted. I’ll be back in town Wednesday. We can look into next best steps.”

    “After seven months of delay and more to come, Joe Biden’s FBI remains committed to one thing: covering up their un-American spying on Catholic citizens,” said former Congressman Huelskamp, Ph.D., Senior Advisor to CatholicVote. “By fully withholding more than 200 pages of public documents, the Biden administration is more interested in hiding the truth than ending this unconstitutional witch hunt of Catholics and other faithful Americans.”

    “The FBI launched a vicious spy effort against Catholics and sought to spy on parishioners as they sat in church pews,” stated Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “These records show top FBI officials were panicked in response about their domestic spying abuse leaking out.”

    CatholicVote.org is a community of patriotic Americans who believe that the timeless truths of the Catholic faith are good for America. It makes its mission “to inspire every Catholic in America to live out the truths of our faith in public life.”

  • Jenna Ellis Sells Out Trump to Georgia Prosecutors, Claims He Intended to ‘Stay in Power’

    Jenna Ellis, an attorney who claimed to act on behalf of former President Donald Trump in the 2020 election challenges, has testified as part of her plea deal in the Georgia racketeering case that she received information that Trump was “not going to leave” the White House.

    !function(r,u,m,b,l,e){r._Rumble=b,r[b]||(r[b]=function(){(r[b]._=r[b]._||[]).push(arguments);if(r[b]._.length==1){l=u.createElement(m),e=u.getElementsByTagName(m)[0],l.async=1,l.src=”https://rumble.com/embedJS/u4870v”+(arguments[1].video?’.’+arguments[1].video:”)+”/?url=”+encodeURIComponent(location.href)+”&args=”+encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify([].slice.apply(arguments))),e.parentNode.insertBefore(l,e)}})}(window, document, “script”, “Rumble”);

    Rumble(“play”, {“video”:”v3t49s7″,”div”:”rumble_v3t49s7″});

    Ellis in the proffer session revealed the purported remark from Dan Scavino, who was a longtime employee of the Trump Organization prior to joining his inaugural presidential campaign. After the Supreme Court refused to take up the Texas case, she said their ability to challenge the election “was essentially over.”

    “And he said to me, in a kind of excited tone, ‘Well, we don’t care, and we’re not going to leave,’” Ellis said of the alleged Dec. 19 conversation with Scavino. “And I said, ‘What do you mean?’ And he said ‘Well, the boss’, meaning President Trump — and everyone understood ‘the boss,’ that’s what we all called him — he said, ‘The boss is not going to leave under any circumstances. We are just going to stay in power.’”

    Ellis continued, “And I said to him, ‘Well, it doesn’t quite work that way, you realize?’ and he said, ‘We don’t care.’”

    While the media is trying to turn the episode into a ‘gotcha’ moment, there is a massive problem with the narrative. Donald Trump, indeed, left office after the Electoral College certified the election results after political extremists disrupted the election challenges on January 6.

    He made this announcement on January 7:

    “I would like to begin by addressing the heinous attack on the United States Capitol. Like all Americans, I am outraged by the violence, lawlessness and mayhem. I immediately deployed the National Guard and federal law enforcement to secure the building and expel the intruders. America is and must always be a nation of law and order,” Trump said.

    This was thirteen days before Joe Biden was scheduled to take his oath of office to become the next president.

    Therefore, the narrative that Donald Trump tried to “overturn the election” with illegal means and to “remain in power” is nothing but a hoax.

    As for Jenna Ellis, she claimed the conversation with Scavino came on December 19. However, her own remarks following that date demonstrate that she was either a “true believer” in election irregularities or she was sticking to the narrative for career reasons.

    “President Trump should never concede the election,” she wrote on December 28.

    She made other comments alleging “fraud” in the 2020 election.

    But apparently, that’s not the only “fraud” taking place in Georgia.

  • Judicial Watch: Secret Service Photos of Cocaine Found inside the White House – Documents Suggest the Cocaine Evidence Was Set for ‘Destruction’

    (Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today it received 112 pages of Secret Service records in a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) that show photos and communications regarding cocaine found inside the Biden White House in July. The DHS withheld 34 pages in their entirety under the “foreseeable harm” standard, which states “the agency reasonably foresees that disclosure would harm an interest protected by an exemption …” and/or the Privacy Act.

    Judicial Watch obtained the records in a July 13 FOIA request filed with the Department of Homeland Security for records, about:

    • A white powdery substance found inside the West Wing of the White House on July 2, 2023, determined through testing to be the illegal drug cocaine.

    The cocaine was found in a West Wing phone locker while the Biden family was away for the Fourth of July weekend at Camp David.

    The investigative photos include the bag of cocaine found near the White House’s West Executive entrance.

    A Secret Service “crime scene examination section evidence report” indicates that the photos were taken on July 2.

    The records include July 2 email sent by a Secret Service public information officer whose name is redacted regarding a “suspicious substance at [the] White House:”

    A 1″ by 1″ bag of white powdery substance was found near where pass holders put their phones when going into the [redacted] here. UD [Uniformed Division] Crime Scene tested it for drugs but came back inconclusive. TSD couldn’t determine what it was. Closures were made for caution.

    DCFEMS [DC Fire & Emergency Medical Services] HAZMAT is on scene as of this email.

    An incident report written on July 2 regarding a “suspicious package/incident” details the activities undertaken by the Secret Service Crime Scene Search Unit, the DC Hazmat team and the FBI’s WMD [Weapons of Mass Destruction] Directorate in handling the then-undetermined substance.

    An additional July 2 incident report indicates the investigation lasted 12 days and that “cocaine and sodium bicarbonate were identified within the Item 1-1 powder,” also DNA “test results did not identify an individual responsible for the placement of the item within the West Wing of the White House Complex.” The report states that on July 14 the cocaine was “placed on the property/evidence book for ‘destruction.’”

    A July 3 email from a person in the Technical Security Division whose name is redacted states:

    Starting time Approx 1745 [5:45 p.m.] UD [Uniform Division] advised of a small ziploc bag approximately less than 1″ in by 1″ in the cell phone lockers by [redacted] was confident it was drug related thus the phone call to UD CRIME SCENE.

    A July 10 email indicates that no identifiable prints were found on the bag.

    On July 13, the Deputy Chief of the U.S. Secret Service Foreign Missions Branch sent a report to the Uniform Division, indicating that the bag of “unknown white powdery substance” was identified as cocaine by the FBI laboratory.

    “These photos and documents detail the disruption and expense of the Biden White House cocaine scandal,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “Few Americans buy that the Biden administration can’t figure out who brought this cocaine into the West Wing. Indeed, the lack of documentation about the ‘investigation’ of who was responsible is striking.”
