Here are some news stories that might be of interest. Most articles will be more or less summarized in the headline. You can skim the headlines and summaries, and click the links if they are of interest. Keep in mind, many of these reports are products of an unreliable news media, so although they will be what people are hearing and talking about, there is no guarantee any one of them is necessarily correct, and we have had cases of outright lies make it onto these pages.

We will be moving this News Brief to the main domain in the near future, so you will find this at anonymousconservative.com, instead of anonymousconservative.com/blog I have a lot going on right now, and it will take time to make sure it goes right, so not right away. I will try to redirect people from /blog to there, but if that doesn’t work, just go to the main domain.
I am grateful for all the help from experts here on the beam. If there is one thing I would hope, it is that my biggest fuckups, and the fact I am not deterred by them would inspire everyone. I generally suck at everything I do when I start. This pursuit of The Beam will be similar, but after doing it for a year, I expect we will have something special here, even if all of our initial surmises end up being wrong at times. That is really all there is to life, just keep trying until you aren’t failing.
I got decent dBms off some signals in the TinySA Ultra as seen in the video below, which has a -44dBm signal at the start, and a -33dBm at the end (I had to switch the meters to get USB cords in them so the batteries would not run out, and they could go 24/7 ):
I was still not happy with it though, as I would like to have seen the EMF-390 spike up to 34419 mw/m2 and peg out as those spikes hit, but there was almost nothing. It felt like the real culprit was escaping, and might continue to. But the EMF-390 was picking it up enough to peg out. Maybe it could detect the spike and the TinySA could not.
I decided to put the EMF-390 in spectrum analyzer mode, and came up with this video:
If you blinked, you missed it:
I think, unless I am mistaken, that is a -16 dBm signal, and they are all throughout there. There was a 436mhz pulse at -11dBm, and that mountain of signal you see at the start of the video, which dropped in the picture above to allow the pulse to show, is constantly dropping, super fast, about half that distance for just a flash, like the meter is beginning to feel a pulse, or is measuring the beginning or very end of a pulse, but it is not lasting long enough to be registered as a peak with numbers.
I do not know enough yet to know what all this means. I am beginning to wonder if the best way to understand this might be to try a replicate this with our own emitters, and try to recreate the weapon, and test al these peaks, to see what these pulses do at these amplitudes. If I felt electricity with one or a combination, then we would know we have the culprits.
For now, I will do what I always have done when I don’t know my ass from a hole in the ground, and that is keep toying around with all this stuff until I get it. But I thought it was interesting, and maybe somebody here would see something interesting to contribute. I’ll post more when I have more.
Some were bantering about commenter “God” being in the comments. I would advise friends to not care about other people, but to view everyone, even people they hate, as opportunities to learn. Because there can always be more than we see going on.
I’ve wanted to write this for a bit, since it might be significant, and here is as good a place as any to put it. There has long been something off with my brain. I do not care about things others care about, and it makes their caring jump out at me as strange. I do not mind, since as a result I notice things about their caring which others, immersed in similar caring, will not pick up on.
People here can insult me, and I feel nothing, even if they genuinely hate me and lash out trying to piss me off. I have seen other posters actually care about that, and get upset, and while I appreciate their caring for my honor, I hate to see them bothered. Especially when it doesn’t bother me.
I think I may know when this all began.
One of the puzzles here is why am I still here. I am exposing more, and think it must be clear I am more dangerous to their little conspiracy, than many they have killed. If I was them, I’d probably have killed me, and while most of them are helpless, I am sure they have somebody they could turn to and try to hire. I am probably kind of dangerous, according to my file, in that my not caring means I would kill anybody who posed a threat, without a second thought, and relish making a mess of it all. But they can also poison and beam, and I am not getting that at the lethal level either. Or at least efforts I have gotten have been half hearted and telegraphed, and maybe just threats.
I have wondered if that is because I was some kind of experiment, and they want the data enough to endure the risks.
My Freshman year of high school was all adrenaline and emotion. There were bullies and fights then sent in, and I enjoyed it. I burned with hatred, and purged my rage, it was great. But the bullies stopped several weeks in, when I was clearly enjoying them, rather than dreading school, and I never got in another fight. Nobody so much as tried to piss me off. I assume now the majority of those kids only did all that due to orders.
Sophomore year was strange though. I became oddly robotic. Emotions disappeared, entirely, the world went gray, nothing enthused me, and I just sort of put one foot in front of the other for a year and did everything as it was presented, without feeling or care. The emotional rollercoaster which made me feel so alive the year before was gone. It could have been the fact there were no fights to be had, no enemies to hate, but it felt like much, much more. I thought at the time maybe I encountered a virus or something which altered my brain, but never did anything else. A year later, I was still more or less a machine, but it worked well for me, until I really got sick and my body fell apart for no clear reason just two weeks before the SAT. I now see that as similar to what The Beam does here and suspect I was getting some technical harassment as a form of slowing me down.
It never dawned on me there were any other players involved in my life, or that they might be able to alter brain structures at a distance, or that they might even try. My neighbors back then were them, too, so they had the residential access to me at night. That year was so weird, I now look back, and wonder if maybe I became some sort of experiment, for the brain beaming ting. Maybe today I continue on, because they want some kind of data off me as a long-term subject. It makes as much sense as any of the rest of this.
Since then, I learned that I can guarantee you, they can apply some kind of point disruption to organ structures inside the head from a considerable distance, which I assume involves a disruption over 1,100 fps at the contact point, given the fact I heard sound from the drumming of it in my head when I moved my head and got the spot by the ear drum. I assume it is designed to alter brain function of specific structures by ablating the surrounding tissue is a slow, gradual fashion.
As a result, there is no guarantee I will not be claiming to be God and Q-anon at the same time, and talking about growing up with Mohammed Ali before this is over now, due to that.
There was a poster in the comments here who I can no longer approve, and it both worries me, and breaks my heart, and I am not even sure which it should be. He showed up like ten years ago, and knew a lot about surveillance tech and surveillance. He was very savvy and sharp. I thought he was in it, or had just gotten out, and was trying to help me as best he could. I appreciated it.
Over the years, his posts got disjointed, and now they are totally detached from reality and incomprehensible. I have no idea if they killed him and are posting that stuff under his name as a psyop, or if they wrecked his inferior temporal gyrus with beaming, and I watched the decline over a few years. If the later, he will certainly end up broke, homeless, and probably institutionalized, through no fault of his own. And he tried to help me.
So I do not judge anybody, or let emotions affect me when dealing with the people here, both due to my weirdness and what I have seen. If somebody is domestic intel, then it is just business to fuck around here, and not personal. They probably do not even believe in what they are saying, And if they are not domestic intel, it could even be they have been beamed and are “off” through no fault of their own. We are all slaves to this organ in our head, and sadly, there are ways to fuck it up, and like it or not, we are all targets now.
I could end up the same way, so probably best to study it now. You never know if that might prove useful later to hack whatever is done to you, and try to work around it in your head.
In the end, we have one enemy we absolutely must destroy, and nobody on a web board can stop you. Focus on the threat, expose the surveillance first and foremost, and don’t worry about who is who here. Learn to find them all interesting, and learn what you can from them. If they are psyops, all the better. You are getting the enemy’s techniques straight from the horse’s mouth. And if not, then they are on our team, and we will need everyone at some point.

Former president Donald Trump addresses the Conservative Political Action Conference annual meeting in National Harbor, Md., February 24, 2024.
The 2024 election feels very different than the 2020 election and we see examples of changing attitudes every day.
Addison Smith of Newsmax recently spoke to a black voter in Philadelphia, a famously blue city, who explained why the country needs to reelect Trump in 2024.
Trump is making huge gains with minority voters in this election cycle and this voter does a great job of explaining why this is happening. No one has confidence in Joe Biden’s ability to lead the country.
RedState has details:
Smith also spoke with a guy who broke it down in terms that would resonate with everyone on Thursday in Philadelphia. He pointed out how they were having the event there for Biden and that there were a lot of Americans “struggling,” but Biden was helping illegal aliens, “When are you going to help American people?” he asked.
The voter then went into something that isn’t said enough now in media: that Biden made us “look weak” with his failed withdrawal from Afghanistan. “Now people don’t take us serious,” he said. “They look at us like a joke.”
“On top of that, you’re not mentally capable of running the country, bro,” he said to Biden.
He was asked by the Newsmax reporter, “Who is?”
“Trump,” the voter declared. “He’s quick to push buttons, but that’s what we need. We need a hard fist for this country…Biden, he’s going through Alzheimer’s; he’s a joke. Trump? He don’t play around, man; he gets things done. You see action, man. We don’t need that POS in the office.” He then apologized for cursing.
“We need Trump back because he got things done, and we see results,” the man exclaimed.

Actor and American patriot Jon Voight has released a new video in which he makes a strong case for reelecting Donald Trump in 2024.
Voight is one of those rare Hollywood celebrities who lives openly as a conservative and Trump supporter. He has publicly supported Trump for years now.
In the video, Voight addresses many of the issues that are top concerns for voters this year.
Breitbart News has a partial transcript:
“Bring back what was lost,” Voight said in a two-minute video posted to his X social media account. “We must bring back the safety of this great country. We must bring back our greatest achievements that once were blooming.
“My friends of all colors, all religions, all nations, we must remember [this] truth: one love, under God. This life is full of injustice, this land of Israel is in danger, the land of the free, the USA, is in danger.
“Let us all come together and make these countries safe again. We must stop this war. We must stop this darkness. This negative plague that is lingering. How? Vote, for the only president that can save these countries once and for all.
“Let all nations bloom, let them shine. My friends, the only way, President Donald J. Trump. He and only he can take this hardship and turn it into a magnificent triumph. He can wipe out this swamp and bring glory, bring justice. And he will help save Israel and warn these enemies that they will pay the price of their injustice, for their disgraceful actions.”
Voight added, “Justice will prevail, and peace for all nations will come to be” should Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, get elected in November.

Cities around the country are dealing with a homelessness problem that has exploded in recent years. In Los Angeles, California, the problem is severe, with thousands upon thousands of people living in tents on sidewalks.
Democrat Mayor Karen Bass has an idea for solving the city’s problem. She wants wealthy residents to buy housing for the homeless. Good luck with that.
Does she really think that Hollywood liberals like Rob Reiner are going to put their money where there mouths are? Unlikely.
Townhall reported:
Here’s How One Democrat Mayor Wants to ‘Solve’ Homelessness
On Monday, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass (D) urged wealthy constituents to buy housing for homeless people in the city.
Bass made the remarks as she announced the LA4LA Campaign, which is aimed at creating housing for the city’s growing homeless population. According to the Los Angeles Times, over 45,000 homeless people live in the city…
So far, Bass’ Inside Safe program has moved over 21,000 homeless people into temporary housing, according to her website. In her remarks, Bass announced the new initiative and asked “the most fortunate” to help fund housing for the homeless.
“We are asking the most fortunate Angelenos to participate in this effort, with personal, private sector and philanthropic funds – to help us acquire more properties, lower the cost of capital and speed up housing,” Bass explained. “This is the mission of our new capital campaign, LA4LA.”…
“LA4LA can be a sea change for Los Angeles – an unprecedented partnership to confront this emergency,” Bass continued. “An example of disrupting the status quo to build a new system to save lives.”

The search for impartial jurors continued on Thursday in the New York City lawfare case of President Donald Trump in the courtroom of conflicted far-left Judge Juan Merchan. A fresh pool of 96 Manhattan residents entered the courtroom earlier today. A significant number of these potential jurors, 48 in total, were immediately excused after admitting to biases against the former president. An additional nine were dismissed for undisclosed reasons.
FOX News reported today that Trump-hating Judge Juan Merchan seated a juror who was arrested in the 90’s for destroying/vandalizing conservative political posters.
FOX News reporter: This has to do with something that very well could have been the fact that this juror may have been arrested back in the 1990s conducting some sort of political vandalism in some sort of posters on the right and it was not revealed. He did not remember it and did not include it.
This is a RIGGED trial – with no crimes.

After Globalist poster boy, French President Emmanuel Macron spent years on end trying to solve all the problems of this world but the ones facing his Republic, he now has a steep price to pay, as the Olympic Games arrive in less than 100 days – and most Parisians are dreading it.
You may think that’s an exaggeration, and feel like there’s little to fear from Olympics Games held in ‘romantic’ Paris – but that lovely city basically only exists in our hearts and memories. Look at how is life now in the metropolis:
How the holidays go: Emmanuel Macron and France Celebrate ‘Only’ 745 Vehicles Torched on New Year’s Eve
Health Issues: Bloodsuckers: Paris Is Infested With Bedbugs – Authorities Seek to Control Situation Ahead of Next Year’s Summer Olympics
Social unrest: WATCH: Angry French Farmers Invade Paris Agricultural Fair, Clash With Police, Chant for Macron To Resign
So as the 100 day mark fly us by, the upcoming Paris 2024 Olympics make many locals grumble that ‘it will mostly be an inconvenience’.
Maybe if Macron was not so worried to lecturing Brazil about how to protect its forest ort Russia how to protect its National Security, he could have taken care of business at home – which he did not.
Sur enough, there is a well-earned stereotype of ‘the grumpy French’. And also, there is the fact that months of building and road renovations for the Games have clogged traffic. But it’s not just that.
Reuters reported:
“A poll last month showed only over a third of French felt enthusiastic about the global sporting event that will start on July 26.
And with the countdown switching to 100 days, many in Paris said they would leave the city, if they could, or work from home, staying away from the sporting events.
‘Am I excited about the Games? No, sorry, I know it’s not the right response but I’m not. I’m not excited at all’, said 57-year-old consulting director Carole Gabriel-Jullien, who lives in the suburbs and plans to work from home during the Olympics.
‘I’m very worried’, she said. ‘When we see how messy daily life already is in Paris, with all these additional people coming for the Olympics, it will be hell’.”
The Olympics’ organizers say to the four winds that they are confident the mood in Paris and beyond will improve as the Games near.
But the security risks are not ‘worrying in vain’, since the threat of terrorist attacks have led the French government to raise its security alert to its highest level.
“Francois Urbain, a 29-year-old office manager, said he will also leave the French capital. ‘I don’t think the city of Paris will be ready’ to handle the Olympics, he said.”
Even the more optimistic say that it will all go well – as long as the unions don’t go on strike.

Now this — A Biden administration official blamed Israel for the attack. Why would the Biden regime do that?
CNN reported:
Israel has carried out a strike inside Iran, a US official tells CNN, in a move that threatens to push the region deeper into conflict.
The target is not nuclear, the official said.
Prior to the Israeli strike Friday (local time), the US expectation was that they would not target civilian or nuclear facilities, another senior US official told CNN.
CNN has previously reported that Israel told the US its response would be limited in scope. US intelligence had suggested Israel was weighing a narrow and limited strike inside Iran because they feel like they have to respond with a kinetic action of some kind given the unprecedented scale of the Iranian attack

Scott’s attempt to challenge incumbent County Legislator Colin Smith for the Democratic nomination in last year’s primary came to an abrupt halt when the County Board of Elections invalidated a significant portion of his petition signatures.
Of the 531 signatures Scott submitted, 217 were deemed fraudulent, leaving him well below the required threshold to qualify for the ballot.
“This morning, the City of Peekskill learned Councilman Rob Scott was charged by the Westchester County District Attorney with filing false documents. The City understands that this is a serious charge, and that information is currently developing. The City will address and comment once more information becomes available,” according to the press release.
According to allegations, Scott knowingly submitted petitions with forged signatures, including those of individuals who later confirmed they had never signed any document for Scott. This discovery emerged from an investigation initiated by the DA’s office after receiving complaints from citizens about the forged signatures.
The matter has escalated from a political embarrassment to a criminal case, with Scott facing felony charges for filing false documents.
According to Iohud, County District Attorney Miriam E. Rocah announced that Scott had been arrested and charged with offering a false instrument for filing in the first degree, Penalties for this Class E felony carry a potential jail term of four years.
Scott’s arraignment is scheduled for April 30.
Scott said at the time he was stunned to learn that people had emerged to state they had not signed the petitions that he had witnessed.
“This is like stuff you see on TV, you know?” Scott said. “It’s like stuff you see in the movies.”
Scott’s four-year term on the Peekskill Common Council runs through 2025. Smith called on Scott to resign.
“Although I am disheartened at the news of Councilman Scott’s arrest, I applaud the district attorney’s office for taking a strong stance on public integrity,” said Smith. “Our elected officials must be held to a higher standard. Let this arrest serve as a warning to those who would attempt to subvert the rule of law for their own selfish gain that such self-serving behavior will not be tolerated. Councilman Scott should immediately resign.”
Peekskill Mayor Vivian McKenzie said it’s too early to take that stand, just a day after Scott’s arrest and before the councilman deals with the criminal charges.
“I believe that the judicial process should play out as intended and I will withhold any judgement until I have more information,” she said.

Conservative political commentator and YouTuber Benny Johnson and his crew were the victims of theft in the very place they were spotlighting for a documentary on California’s rising crime rates.
The incident occurred on Wednesday as the team was working on a piece about the closure of an In-N-Out Burger location due to rampant robberies.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Oakland, California, is losing their only In-N-Out Burger restaurant due to the city’s ongoing crime problem. The restaurant is profitable, but they can’t deal with the constant armed robberies, car break-ins, and more.
Crime in Oakland has been on the rise for months on end. The city has a Soros-backed DA, Pamela Price, who is currently facing a recall effort.
Johnson’s project aimed to shed light on the alarming trend of rising crime rates in California and their toll on local businesses, including the famed In-N-Out Burger.
Ironically, as Johnson and his team were documenting these very issues, they themselves fell prey to the crime they sought to expose.
“I Just Got ROBBED At In-N-Out Burger,” Johnson lamented on X.

The robbery unfolded in broad daylight, around 2 p.m., catching the crew off-guard. According to Johnson’s producer, ALX, who was in the vehicle at the time, an assailant smashed the car window in an attempt to snatch a bag.
“I was in the car when it happened, the rest of the team was probably about 20 feet away. A car pulled up, someone jumped out, smashed the window and tried to take a bag, I had to rip it from his hands and told him to “f*ck off.” Oakland is a third world country,” Alx wrote.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R., La.) speaks to reporters during a weekly press conference at Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., April 16, 2024.
Activists with the leftist group Climate Defiance were thrown off the stage in a tumbled heap while disrupting an event honoring Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday. There are no reports of arrests or injuries.
Murkowski was being honored by the Bryce Harlow Foundation at an event held at the Marriott Marquis hotel in downtown D.C. near the convention center. Bryce Harlow was a Republican presidential advisor, Congressional staffer and lobbyist.
Video posted by Climate Defiance shows several activists holding a banner being bull-rushed in a tumble off the stage by security and what appears to be organizers. A woman in a black dress who seems to be Murkowski moves away from the mob to a far corner of the small stage.
The video was posted with this commentary, “BREAKING: We just shut down a gala honoring U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowski. Murkowski is a murderer. She incinerates us to enrich her cronies. As Chevron’s top lobbyist gave her an award, we stepped in and stopped the ceremony. Respect us or expect us.”
https://twitter.com/ClimateDefiance/status/1780981172442415450
The group posted childish, hysterical statements explaining why it protested Murkowski:
Murkowski played a lead role in persuading Biden to approve the Willow Project. This monstrosity will transport 200,000 barrels of oil every single day. This is hideous. This is cruel and barbaric beyond description. (3/5)

Once again another transgender teenager was arrested after her plot to shoot up a school was discovered.
The Gateway Pundit reports,
A transgender high school student (biological female) was arrested Wednesday for plotting a mass shooting at a high school in Maryland.
As WJLA reported, 18-year-old Andrea Ye, who identifies as “Alex,” was stopped by Montgomery County Police (MCPD) and federal officials after they discovered she was planning to shoot up Wootton High School in Rockville.
Police revealed that they discovered that Ye had authored a 129-page manifesto outlining how she would carry out this horrendous act of violence. Ye called the manifesto her memoir.
The manifesto was reportedly shared with Baltimore police on March 3 by a person who became acquainted with Ye at a psychiatric facility in Maryland. WJLA reports Ye began receiving mental health treatment in December of 2022 after multiple alleged threats.
In addition to the manifesto, police say they also discovered several internet searches that led them to arrest Ye. Moreover, she previously considered targeting an elementary school.
Ye has been charged with threat of mass violence and is being held in the Montgomery County Detention Center without bond.
Lately there has been a plethora of examples of violence or attempted violence from radicalized members of the transgender community. There are clearly compounding mental illnesses at play here but until we recognize them as such this is not going to simply go away on its own.
I had predicted and feared that following the Covenant School shooting we would see more instances of this, but I had hoped I was wrong. It seems that something has changed and we are seeing more and more violence.

A Harris County grand jury has dismissed the murder charge against 17-year-old Mario Young in the case involving the death of 42-year-old store clerk Asif Maknojia.
The grand jury’s “no-bill” ruling indicates that they found insufficient evidence to prosecute Young for the murder of 42-year-old Asif Maknojia, effectively disposing of the case.
The incident took place on January 19 when Young and another teenager were confronted by Maknojia after they stole a bag of chips from a Sunoco station in Humble.
The second teen was never even charged.
Court records reveal that Maknojia pursued the teens outside of the store and into his vehicle, at which point the fatal shooting occurred.
Lott Brooks, the attorney representing Young, argued that his client acted in self-defense.
“I wanted him to be there with the grand jury, be honest and tell them exactly what happened,” Brooks said.
He claimed that on the day of the shooting, Maknojia brandished a firearm and threatened the teenagers. However, official documents have yet to clarify whether Maknojia was indeed armed during the encounter.
According to Click2Houston, an eyewitness denied seeing the cashier brandish a firearm.
More from FOX 26:
“When they left there was no danger anymore, when he came around the corner and confronted them again, I think they were afraid for their lives,” Brooks said.
He says his condolences go to Maknojia’s family.
“It is just absolutely devastating, and I know my client is very upset about what happened.”
He says he doesn’t know where Young got the gun, but thinks there are too many guns on the streets, and they lead to tragedies like this one.
It is possible for the DA to present the case to another grand jury and re-file charges, but there hasn’t been any indication that that will happen in this case.

Carlos De Oliveira (L), Trump, Walt Nauta (R)
Judge Aileen Cannon on Thursday denied motions filed by Trump co-defendants Walt Nauta and Carlos De Oliveira to dismiss the indictments against them.
Carlos De Oliveira and Walt Nauta were indicted in Special Counsel Jack Smith’s classified documents case along with President Trump.
Walt Nauta is a former White House employee and Navy veteran who worked valet for Trump and served as a personal staffer at Mar-a-Lago.
According to the federal indictment reviewed by The Gateway Pundit, Nauta was charged along with Trump in counts 32, 33, 43, 35, and 36.
The charges include conspiracy, withholding a document or record, corruptly concealing a document or record, concealing a document in a federal investigation and scheme to conceal.
Walt Nauta was also charged alone in count 38: False statements and misrepresentations.
Jack Smith charged Carlos De Oliveira, a maintenance worker who helped Trump aide Walt Nauta move boxes of documents around at Mar-a-Lago. He was added to the obstruction conspiracy charges filed in the original charges.
Judge Cannon on Thursday rejected Carlos De Oliveira’s argument that he was unaware of the subpoenas issued for the classified documents stored at Mar-a-Lago. De Oliveira argued that he didn’t know that there were classified documents in the boxes.
“The arguments in Defendant De Oliveira’s Motion do not warrant dismissal of the obstruction offenses charged against him. As grounds for dismissal of those counts (Counts 33, 40, and 41), De Oliveira identifies various topics and/or allegations that are not contained in the Superseding Indictment – namely, specific allegations about his knowledge of classified documents or the contents of “the boxes” more generally, or about his knowledge of an “official proceeding” under 18 U.S.C. § 1512. De Oliveira also argues, again in support of dismissal, that the allegations in the Indictment do not show that he was capable of acting with the required “corrupt” criminal intent to support the alleged obstruction offenses. These characterizations are not grounds to dismiss the obstruction counts against De Oliveira,” Cannon wrote in the 8-page ruling reviewed by The Gateway Pundit.
The Judge also rejected Walt Nauta’s motion to dismiss the charges against him on the argument that they are unconstitutionally vague.
“Defendant Nauta also moves to dismiss the charged obstruction counts—Counts 33, 34, 35, 40, and 41 — as unconstitutionally vague as applied to him and for failure to state a claim. Nauta’s principal submission is that the term “corruptly” as used in the charged § 1512 counts, see 18 U.S.C. § 1512(b)(2)(A), (b)(2)(B), (c)(1), is subject to multiple, still-developing, and contested judicial constructions of the term such that it fails to give ordinary people fair notice of the conduct it punishes and invites arbitrary enforcement,” Cannon wrote.
Cannon continued, “This “multiple-meanings vagueness” contention is worthy of serious consideration, but it does not lead this Court to conclude that dismissal of the obstruction counts is warranted.”
President Trump also filed several motions to dismiss the charges against him. Judge Cannon has not ruled on all of Trump’s motions.

Chinese hackers are preparing to launch a major attack on critical U.S. infrastructure and have already infiltrated multiple companies according to the FBI.
FBI Director Chris Wray revealed today China is developing the capability to cause significant damage to our critical infrastructure at a time of their choosing. The only question is the time to launch a catastrophic blow.
“China is developing the ability to physically wreak havoc on our critical infrastructure at a time of its choosing,” Wray said at the 2024 Vanderbilt Summit on Modern Conflict and Emerging Threats. “Its plan is to land low blows against civilian infrastructure to try to induce panic.”
According to Wray, an ongoing Chinese hacking campaign known as Volt Typhoon has successfully infiltrated several American companies in telecommunications, energy, water, and other critical sectors. 23 pipeline operators are being targeted.
According to Reuters, Wray went on to note that China’s hackers operated a series of botnets, which are constellations of compromised personal computers and servers around the globe to hide their nefarious cyber actions. Private sector American technology and cybersecurity companies previously attributed Volt Typhoon to China, including reports by security researchers with Microsoft and Google.
Reuters reports that a Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson claimed the Volt Typhoon was unrelated to China’s government but is a criminal ransomware group.
China’s Embassy in Washington released the following statement in response to the MFA spokesperson’s comment.
Some in the US have been using origin-tracing of cyberattacks as a tool to hit and frame China, claiming the US to be the victim while it’s the other way around, and politicizing cybersecurity issues.
Some would argue that the operation may already be underway. Early this morning, there was a widespread outage involving 911 emergency numbers in four states: Nebraska, South Dakota, Nevada, and Texas.
Moreover, investigative journalist Lara Logan revealed that reliable intelligence sources have told her the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse in Baltimore, Maryland last month was an “absolutely brilliant strategic attack” on US critical infrastructure.
From Logan:
Multiple intel sources: The Baltimore bridge collapse was an “absolutely brilliant strategic attack” on US critical infrastructure – most likely cyber – & our intel agencies know it. In information warfare terms, they just divided the US along the Mason-Dixon line, exactly like the Civil War.
The second busiest strategic roadway in the nation for hazardous material is now down for 4-5 years – which is how long they say it will take to recover. Bridge was built specifically to move hazardous material – fuel, diesel, propane gas, nitrogen, highly flammable materials, chemicals, and oversized cargo that cannot fit in the tunnels – that supply chain now crippled.
Make no mistake: this was an extraordinary attack in terms of planning, timing & execution.
While the FBI may have identified a major national crisis afoot, they may also be a day late and a dollar short. Moreover, one should have little confidence the agency will be able to thwart such a significant attack from a hostile foreign adversary.

The world is getting more dangerous by the day, there is no doubt about it. But what is also skyrocketing is the alarmism against Russian infiltration, sabotage, and even assassination plots.
While there is no denying that Russians do infiltrate every country they can, friend or foe, and I would not put it past them (or anyone else) to engage in sabotage or assassinations, the uptick happening now makes no sense.
The Russian Federation’s forces are about to win the war, so why would they suddenly engage in asymmetric tactics at this point?
At this point, simultaneous accusations are being made in Poland, Germany, and other nations.
In Poland, for example, a citizen was arrested for allegedly spying for the Russian government. So far, so normal.
But the top prosecutors in Poland and Ukraine are saying the man was part of a potential assassination attempt against Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
That sounds like a bit of a stretch: after all, we remember how Putin has promised not to kill Zelensky at a meeting with then-Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett – a meeting which took place in the early days of the war.
“After receiving the promise, Bennet called Zelensky on his way to the airport from the Kremlin and said that he was not in danger of death.
‘Are you sure?’ Zelensky asked. ‘One hundred percent’, Bennett replied.”
There are any number of ways to engage in decapitation strikes to take out the Ukrainian leadership – so this unlikely plot ‘uncovered’ may well be manufactured.
Read more:
The Polish citizen, identified as Pawel K., was charged with ‘readiness to act for foreign intelligence against the Republic of Poland’.
ABC News reported:
“The suspect allegedly ‘proactively established contact’ with Russian military command representatives and ‘informed them of his readiness to cooperate’ with the Russian Federation’s foreign military intelligence agency, according to Andriy Kostin, the Ukrainian prosecutor general.
The suspect’s alleged tasks for the Russian government included collecting and providing the agency with information on the security of the Rzeszów-Jasionka Airport, an international airport in Jasionka in southeastern Poland, Polish and Ukrainian officials said.
‘This was to help Russian special services plan a possible assassination attempt on the Ukrainian President during his presence in Poland’, Kostin said in a statement on X.”
The Ukraine prosecutors tipped their Polish counterpart about the suspect, and also obtained the ‘key evidence’ of the investigation.
The suspect is facing up to eight years in prison if convicted.
“‘This case underscores the persistent threat Russia poses not only to Ukraine and Ukrainians but to the entire free world’, Kostin said. ‘The Kremlin’s criminal regime is constantly trying to undermine European and global security. It organizes and carries out sabotage operations on the territory of other sovereign states’.”

The White House on Thursday said Joe Biden lying about his “uncle Bosey” being eaten by cannibals in New Guinea was a “proud moment” for Biden.
Biden on Wednesday repeatedly told the same dubious story about his uncle Ambrose Finnegan, AKA, “Uncle Bosey” being eaten by cannibals after his WWII plane was shot down over New Guinea.
“My uncle Bosey he was Army Air Corps before the Air Force came along. He flew those single-engine planes as reconnaissance over war zones and he got shot down in New Guinea and they never found the body because there used to be a lot of cannibals – for real – in that part of New Guinea,” Biden said to steelworkers in Pittsburgh.

Former MI Senator Patrick Colbeck is one of the smartest and kindest individuals I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. When speaking with Patrick, it’s easy to see why so many people in Michigan and across the nation respect and trust him. Having been involved in politics for over 15 years, I’ve met a lot of people who puff out their chests and talk about what needs to be done to save our elections from being corrupted by people with bad intentions—Patrick Colbeck isn’t one of those people. He doesn’t boast about his tireless efforts to protect our elections; instead, Patrick humbly puts his head down and goes to work, assessing potential vulnerabilities in our elections and identifying ways to correct them. Unfortunately, because Patrick Colbeck dared to question the integrity of the voting machines in 2020, which most Americans have trusted since they were first used in Michigan elections, he has become the target of Democrats and their allies in the leftist media. Patrick is also the author of “The 2020 Coup—What Happened and What We Can Do.”
Yesterday, Senator Patrick Colbeck held a press conference outside of the MI State Capitol flanked by six of the bravest lawmakers in the state, where he announced the filing of criminal complaints against Dominion Voting Systems CEO John Poulos.
The complaint, filed by Patrick Colbeck, alleges Mr. Poulos committed 15 counts of perjury during his testimony before the MI Senate Oversight Committee on December 15, 2020.
The video below shows Mr. Poulos being sworn in before his testimony before the MI Senate Oversight Committee.

Colbeck continues, “Michigan legislators and concerned citizens have brought forth allegations against John Poulos, CEO of Dominion Voting Systems, relating to his testimony under oath on December 15, 2020, before the Michigan Senate Oversight Committee. Mr. Poulos faces 15 counts of perjury based on these allegations. The testimony in question was referenced extensively in the Michigan Senate Oversight Committee’s June 2021 Report on The November 2020 Election in Michigan. The forthcoming evidence challenges the accuracy of Mr. Poulos’s statements and, by extension, questions the findings of the Senate report, which stated there was no evidence of widespread or systemic fraud in the 2020 election in Michigan.”
“The implications of the alleged misinformation are significant, potentially affecting the perceived integrity of Michigan’s electoral process and the legal repercussions faced by individuals as a result of the contested testimony. A formal complaint, accompanied by supporting evidence, is scheduled to be filed with the Michigan Secretary of the Senate, the Michigan Attorney General, and the Michigan State Police. The complaint aims to address the alleged deliberate nature of the false testimony and seeks to uphold the principles of justice,” Patrick Colbeck claims.

On February 14, The Gateway Pundit wrote about a BOMBSHELL RECORDING that captured MI Prosecutor Peter Lucido accusing Dominion Voting Machines President John Poulos of perjuring himself under oath when asked about Dominion Machine’s access to the internet.
On December 15, 2020, the CEO of Dominion Voting Systems, John Poulos, testified before the MI Senate Oversight Committee in a hearing where he was asked about the Dominion Voting machines used in Michigan in the November 2020 election.
The Chair of the Senate Oversight Committee, MI Senator Ed McBroom, was first to speak with Mr. Poulos and immediately asked if the Dominion Voting Machines were connected to the internet. In his response, Mr. Poulos explained that the voting machine is “designed” to be connected to the tabulator. Senator McBroom asked if, for some reason, “the locals were to have that computer connected to the world wide web and also networked to the tabulator, is there something in the software that would it shut things down at that point—would it continue to operate? What is the security protocol at that point?” Mr. Poulos appeared to point to the “locals” as the responsible parties for determining if the machines were indeed connected to the internet. “First and foremost,” he began, “the complete security that is under the control of the local authorities is paramount.” If this is indeed true, it would appear that he’s saying it’s up to the election officials in each polling place to ensure the security of the voting machines. The response by the Dominion Voting Machines president begs the question—What if, hypothetically, of course, there were “locals” like the hostile workers at the TCF Center in 2020 who, based on their actions on the day after the 2020 election, had a strong interest in Joe Biden coming from behind to win the election in 2020? And what if there were individuals overseeing the elections who were not interested in protecting the security of the machines?
Watch:
Then-MI Senator Pete Lucido (R) asked Mr. Poulos, “How do I know, as a voter, Mr. Poulos, that I didn’t have any irregularity of the software being manipulated? How can I be sure of that?” The Dominion CEO responded by saying a “hand count audit and recount” would resolve any questions about the integrity of the machines.
MI Senator Pete Lucido (R) began his questioning of Mr. Poulos by asking if Dominion has any way to access any of the equipment on their machines remotely. The Dominion president responded by saying, “No.” Senator Lucido pressed the Dominion president, asking about the purpose of the USB port on the machines. Mr. Poulos asked for clarification about the type of machine Senator Lucido was referring to. When Senator Lucido clarified that he was speaking about the touchscreen voting machines, the Dominion president responded by saying, “Yes, there is,” adding that the touchscreen voting machines “are just an expensive fancy pen.” Mr. Poulos clarified that the “electronic pen” does not tabulate votes.
Only two weeks ago, during an elections security trial in a federal courthouse in Georgia, computer scientist and University of Michigan professor Alex Halderman revealed shocking election machine security vulnerabilities when he demonstrated how easily a voting machine could be tampered with. Using everyday items, which included a Bic pen and a $10 smart card.
All he needed was a pen to reach a button inside the touchscreen, a fake $10 voter card he had programmed, or a $100 USB device that he plugged into a cord connected to a printer, rewriting the touchscreen’s code.
Professor Halderman’s stunning real-time example of how easily voting machines can be manipulated raised questions about the reliability of Dominion’s voting equipment that has been used in Georgia’s elections.
In another exchange on December 15, 2020, during the MI Senate Oversight Committee hearing, Rep. MacDonald asked Dominion President Poulos, “Is it possible for a record value either locally or remotely? Mr. Poulos responded, “No, to my knowledge, it’s not.” He explained, “Even if it were, they certainly wouldn’t be able to do it undetected.” He added that “It would leave a trail” and that “several checks and balances within the machine could detect whether or not such a thing happened. Mr. Poulos concluded his response with, “Which, of course, I don’t think it can.” You don’t think it can? How is this an acceptable answer?
When asked by Senator MacDonald if it’s possible that votes could be manipulated by inserting a USB drive into the Dominion tabulators? Mr. Poulos responded, “No, I don’t think so,” adding, “Even if it was, it would be detected.” Detected by whom, and what, exactly did Mr. Poulos mean when he said he didn’t think so? Unfortunately, Mr. Poulos wasn’t pressed on his vague response and asked to guarantee it couldn’t happen.
In early December 2023, Attorney Michael J Smith called Macomb Prosecutor Peter Lucido’s office to request a meeting with his office because his client, Michael Lewis Butz, was making a perjury criminal complaint to Macomb County Sheriff Wickersham.
On December 9, 2023, Macomb County Prosecutor Pete Lucido contacted Michael J. Smith via phone. When Smith didn’t answer, Mr. Lucido left the following message:
Mike—Pete Lucido. I got your message.
When I was in the Senate, on the Oversight Committee, we did Dominion. It was published and recorded, and it should be online.
The president of Dominion testified, and so did his engineer or software maker, and the questions were centered around whether or not there was access to the internet on these machines that Dominion made. He said no, and it was a lie!”
THE DAM HAS BROKEN: PROSECUTOR ACCUSES DOMINION CEO OF LYING
Listen to this leaked audio of 46 seconds. Explanation below.

The January 5, 2024, complaint to Sheriff Wickersham can be seen below.
In his complaint to the Macomb County Sheriff, Michael Butz explained how, in his opinion, MI SOS Jocelyn Benson’s office and the Bureau of Elections under the direction of Jonathan Brater (who is also the chair of ERIC that is under contract with the state of MI to “clean up” Michigan’s dirty voter rolls), “obstruct and prevent the township and city clerks from performing their lawful duty to transparently conduct elections through the use of complicated electronic voting systems and unlawful election policies and directives.”
In addition to demanding full transparency in Michigan’s elections, Smith wrote:
Truthful testimony from election software and equipment vendors is critical for Michigan township and city clerks, county clerks, senators and other public officials to identify potential election system problems and implement appropriate solutions to mitigate risks to election integrity.
Mr. Butz demanded an investigation into the crime of perjury related to Mr. Poulos’s testimony while he was under oath.
“I have reviewed the Senate testimony of Mr. Poulos and have concluded that he failed to provide accurate and transparent information to Senators- Poulos committed perjury! No one, not even the CEO of Dominion Voting Systems Inc., should be above the law, and I am asking that your office take immediate action to enforce the law, investigate the perjury statements, and charge Mr. Poulos with perjury,” Mr. Butz wrote.
On page 2 of Mr. Butz’s letter to Sheriff Wickersham, he shared an example of how important it is for law enforcement to understand the significance of Mr. Poulos’s testimony.
He wrote, “Dominion was forced to disclose in Williamson, TN, that its source code was defective and the Dominion voting systems did not accurately tally the votes.”
Mr. Poulos testified under oath in front of the Senate Oversight Committee in Lansing, MI, which is located in Ingham County, and former Senator Pete Lucido is now the prosecutor in Macomb County, making it impossible for Mr. Lucido since the alleged perjury took place outside of his district. Additionally, Macomb County Prosecutor Pete Lucido could be considered a witness. The request for an investigation into alleged perjury by Dominion President John Poulos was, therefore, sent to Lansing Chief of Police Ellery Sosebee for investigation.
In his letter to the City of Lansing Police Chief Ellery Sosebee, Mr. Butz stated that he was asking for the Lansing Police Department to assign a criminal complaint number to his request for an investigation. He explained that he initially filed the complaint in Macomb County but was told he needed to file the criminal complaint in the proper jurisdiction. Mr. Butz also explained that because he was involved in litigation against SOS Jocelyn Benson and AG Dana Nessel in another matter, he believes it would be a conflict of interest for the Lansing Police Department to turn the case over to MI AG Nessel’s office.
Does Mr. Butz have a case against Mr. Poulos? Was the Dominion Voting Machines president telling the truth in his testimony to the MI State Senate Oversight Committee?
So, was the testimony of Mr. Poulos on December 15, 2020, accurate? According to the message Macomb Prosecutor Pete Lucido left for Mr. Butz, he certainly doesn’t believe Mr Poulos was telling the truth while testifying under oath. Is Mr. Butz correct? Should there be an investigation into the vulnerability of all voting machines before the critical 2024 election in Michigan and in every state where they will be used?
Attorney Stefanie Lambert has sent a letter to Rep. Jim Jordan asking for the House Judiciary Committee to “immediately subpoena John Poulos, Eric Coomer (formerly employed by Dominion), and former Senator Pete Lucido to testify in front of his committee. In her letter, Lambert cites the criminal complaint filed by her client, Michael Butz, that has not yet been acknowledged by the Lansing Police Chief. In her letter, Lambert states that Macomb County Prosecutor Pete Lucido is willing to testify that Dominion CEO John Poulos lied under oath on December 15, 2020.
Less than one month after the Dominion president’s December 15, 2020, testimony, a scathing report based on expert testimony and reported by NBC News revealed how vulnerable our elections are as long as modems installed in voting machines are allowed to connect to the internet, even briefly – According to a team of 10 independent cybersecurity experts who specialize in voting systems and elections. While the voting machines themselves are not designed to be online, the larger voting systems in many states end up there, putting the voting process at risk.
That team of election security experts says that last summer, they discovered some systems are, in fact, online.
“We found over 35 [voting systems] had been left online, and we’re still continuing to find more,” Kevin Skoglund, a senior technical advisor at the election security advocacy group National Election Defense Coalition, told NBC News.
The three largest voting manufacturing companies — Election Systems &Software, Dominion Voting Systems, and Hart InterCivic — have acknowledged they all put modems in some of their tabulators and scanners. The reason? So that unofficial election results can more quickly be relayed to the public. Those modems connect to cell phone networks, which, in turn, are connected to the internet.
The largest manufacturer of voting machines, ES&S, told NBC News their systems are protected by firewalls and are not on the “public internet.” But both Skoglund and Andrew Appel, a Princeton computer science professor and expert on elections, said such firewalls can and have been breached.
Kevin Skoglund, senior technical advisor at the National Election Defense Coalition, showed NBC three election systems were still online even after officials had been told they were vulnerable.
For election systems to be online, even momentarily, presents a serious problem, according to Appel.
“Once a hacker starts talking to the voting machine through the modem, the hacker cannot just change these unofficial election results; they can hack the software in the voting machine and make it cheat in future elections,” he said.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology, which provides cybersecurity frameworks for state and local governments and other organizations, recommends that voting systems should not have wireless network connections.
