The curious case of how James O’Keefe obtained Ashley Biden’s diary & the ongoing DOJ criminal investigation. A rather Deep Dive

Bad Boys. Bad Boys -whatcha gonna do when they come for you? Hire an attorney, demand a “special master”, use Attorney-Client and subterfuge. James O’Keefe is NOT a reporter. Period, Full Stop.

Prerequisite disclosure: Like millions of you, I too voted for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. I wouldn’t say I’m a bra burning Wicca dancing naked by a bonfire in the moonlight liberal (no offense intended if you’re Wicca or enjoy dancing by a moonlit bonfire) or otherwise known by MAGA as “a lib-tard” —The point is if me caring about…

• every American should be given a equal playing field,

• having access affordable and quality health care

• access to quality public education, (specifically universal pre-K)

• clean water for all Americans to drink & bathe in,

• equal protection under the law,

• handing the next generation a better future and a thriving democracy

• and un-afraid of calling balls and strikes

…some how makes me “a lib-tard” — I’m oddly okay with that.

What you might not know is; English is in fact my second language. When my parents adopted me and brought me back to America I did not speak a single word of English. The story goes, about 4 months after my parents brought me to America, one day I woke up and started speaking English as if it was my first language. When I became a naturalized citizen it was President Reagan who presided over my (and about a dozens of others) Naturalization Ceremony. No kidding my parents threw me a party and I specifically asked the cake be decorated with the following message: “I’m not an Alien. I’m an American Citizen.” —Incidentally for a brief moment of time, I also thought that becoming a naturalized citizen would mean I would wake up the next day with blonde hair and blue eyes.

This is my roundabout way of saying I don’t take being an American citizen for granted. I had to study, had multiple interviews, passed a citizenship test —all while being younger than 10 years old. I’m proud to say I’m an American Citizen. I’m also proud to say that my immediate family members have served our country in the US Army for a collective 73+ years. Patriotism runs deep in my family. And that tradition & respect continues with my own family. A few years ago, when my oldest was officially naturalized, our Member of Congress requested that the Architect of the Capitol fly an American Flag to be flown on the Capitol Building in honor of America’s newest citizen, My family had the privilege of accepting that American Flag.

Notwithstanding I’ve repeatedly stated that if the Biden/Harris Administration enacted public policies that I disagree with, I wouldn’t shy away from voicing concerns. Here’s the thing; even during former president Trump’s scandal plagued presidency. I never actively sought to see Trump fail. Why? Because like it or not he was the President of these United Stares. By rooting for Trump’s failure also meant (albeit by proxy) —I was rooting for America’s failure. The inverse of that and yes, this is directed to those who are currently & actively rooting for President Biden failure. I can not think of anything more unpatriotic… other than storming the citadel of our Democracy. I don’t need to name names, these people know who they are and they need to fix their tormented souls or at the minimum think before you tweet. To those who are actively advocating for Biden/Harris failure - you are also advocating for America’s failure. If you hate America that much -then renounce your citizenship and GTFO of America but tweeting behind a locked account - that shows what a coward you really are.

I wanted my readers to have this contextual background before I dive into the Ashley Biden Diary issue. To be clear I have zero intention of opining about the purported contents of Ms Biden’s diary. Instead my goal is to prove you the various court filings and to solely focus on the protracted legal battle underway in SDNY…

James O’Keefe & Project Veritas background

I would not say James O’Keefe is a reporter, he’s a provocateur that occasionally masquerades as a “reporter” —With respect to Project Veritas “Chairman” James O’Keefe below is the 2010 criminal case regarding O’Keefe and his co-conspirators. When push came to shove O’Keefe cracked like an egg hitting the asphalt at full velocity… not to be confused with terminal velocity

• Jan 25, 2010 COMPLAINT signed by Magistrate Judge Daniel E. Knowles, III as to Robert Flanagan (1), Joseph Basel (2), James O'Keefe (3), Stan Dai (4)

• May 26, 2010 - PLEA AGREEMENT by James O'Keefe.

  

• May 27, 2010 Factual Basis by James O'Keefe.

• May 27, 2010 JUDGMENT as to James O'Keefe (4), Count(s) 1, sentencing held 5/26/10. Signed by Magistrate Judge Daniel E. Knowles, III on 5/26/10

  

In the past some of you might remember the various deep dives into the Mercer Family. And once again my favorite Becky-with-the-shittyhair emerges. Based on previous research I know that at one point O’Keefe and Veritas were largely funded by Becky-with-the-shity hair Mercer Family Foundation. Unless otherwise specified the embedded links in this portion of the article are exclusively from the IRS.

Show me the IRS-990s receipts

For those who followed me on Twitter or via MadDog know that I repeatedly provided my followers with step by step instructions on how to lawfully obtain these public filings. Again there’s nothing magical or super secretive -you just need to know which database and what to look for. Generally speaking, I very much enjoy teaching my followers/readers:; how they too can (with relative ease) obtain the very same information that I can. After all sharing is caring and I like to share

Project Veritas’ IRS-990 Filings

I think there might be a misconception that Project Veritas is merely a private “news” organization. It is not. It’s a 501(c)(3) and accordingly it’s required to file an annual IRS-990 (think of that as a tax return for a charitable organization)

I’ve taken the liberty of pulling down Project Veritas’ FY 2019-IRS-990 see embedded IRS link to Project Veritas EIN: 27-2894856 —I’ve repeatedly explained to my readers/followers why I typically zero in on an entity’s EIN. Given entity can easily change their name but changing an EIN can be a rather arduous task. When researching I find that zeroing in on “static” data (EIN) versus “dynamic” data (name of organization).. In the 2019 filing and here’s what I learned:

• Neither James (I took a plea in 2010) O’Keefe nor Project Veritas are trustworthy. And readers should not view them as a reputable news organization (and/or reporter) because of their long documented history of disinformation and misinformation.

• Obviously the disinformation and misinformation that Project Veritas & O’Keefe pump out. You’d think that perhaps they wouldn’t compensate O’Keefe to a mind blowing >$400K For Example; in Fiscal Year 2019 James O’Keefe was paid $396,429.00 + $9.871.00 -see page 7 of their 2019 IRS-990 filing

  

• In 2019 Project Veritas had about a half a dozen attorneys (separate from the four in-house counsels) and spent nearly 1/4 of the >$12M raised on legal fees/consultation/services rendered. See page 8 of Project Veritas 2019 IRS-990

  

…any competent researcher knows, you start with a big drag net and then you zero in on the data you want. To illiterate this approach, link of a calm almost placid lake/pond, you then drop a rock into the lake/pond and it naturally creates concentric circles. You start researching the outermost circle and start wiring your way towards the middle. If you take this kind of research strategy you invariably find way more facts versus immediately focusing in on the center circle. Case in point: And while most might overlook Project Veritas Action Fund (PVAF) EIN: 47-1809663:

• take a peak at the near 110% increase in 2019 versus 2018 filings (note the distinction in year filed versus tax year - it’s always one year behind)

• this IRS link will take you to PVAF’s IRS filings 2015 thru 2019

Mercer Family Foundation donations to Project Veritas

below are the annual IRS-990 filings for Becky-with-the-shittyhair Family Foundation - I’d like to draw your attention to Fiscal Years 2015 thru 2017

• Tax Year 2018 Form 990PF,

• Tax Year 2017 Form 990PF & Tax Year 2017 Form 990PF,

• Tax Year 2016 Form 990PF, Tax Year 2016 Form 990PF and

• Tax Year 2015 Form 990PF

Donald J Trump Foundation donations to Project Veritas

In addition to the Blow-it-up Billionaires, the Mercer Family - I had repeatedly noted, the Donald J Trump Foundation also made (albeit far more modest donations) to Project Veritas -after Weisselberg’s Indictment (read more here)

• Tax Year 2018 Form 990PF, Tax Year 2017 Form 990P and

• Tax Year 2016 Form 990PF

Yet Project Veritas and O’Keefe continue to wrap themselves in the First Amendment. One can only conclude this is an end-run to the ongoing DOJ criminal investigation. Those search warrants are a riveting read. So now let’s talk about the ongoing litigation regarding those lawful warrants. Not to belabor this point but clearly investigators presented evidence —providing the Court with probable cause that a crime or crimes were committed and thusly a court authorized several search warrants. I know you probably think it’s only a singular search warrant. Based on preliminary research I’m going to help you understand that there are multiple search warrants, targets and several grand jury subpoenas.

How did James O’Keefe & Project Veritas obtain Ashley Biden’s “diary”

Based on a thorough reading of the available public court filings —O”Keefe’s position is: two individuals R.K and A.B. approached Project Veritas in early 2020. And that the Biden diary was “abandoned” at a Florida home that Ms Biden purportedly rented. Individuals R.K. and A.B. via their attorneys wanted to be paid by Project Veritas for the “purported” Biden diary. Their attorneys stared the individuals “lawfully came in to possession of” the “purported” Biden Diary.

After Project Veritas conducted their due diligence that passed on publishing the contents of the “purported” diary. And later disclosed that they handed the diary over to a “local Florida law enforcement” department. And opted to not publish the contents of the diary. It is likely that these two individuals made similar approaches to other “alt-right” media organizations. If you noticed I’m specifically using “ “ and “purported” a lot. Notwithstanding and absent an actual declaration and/or affidavit of how these individuals came in to possession of the diary, it is really hard to confirm the providence of the “purported diary” -I grappled with do I include the “October 2020 National File” article —(because I’m acutely aware of how dangerous disinformation and misinformation is) I opted to embed the National File “article” Conversely I do think it is wise to remain skeptical as to the authenticity of the diary, irrespective of how it was obtained. Which is why I’m threading a very tight needle by only acknowledging the National File’s article but refusing to dive into the contents. Suffice to say and largely because of the salacious details, I’m not inclined to debase President Biden or his daughter by amplifying the diary’s contents. However given there is a grand jury empaneled and at least three lawful search and seizure warrants to three individuals associated with Project Veritas… there’s enough smoke that made my curious enough to do a deep dive. Let’s first start with November 5, 2021

James O’Keefe’s official Nov 5, 2021 statement…

In some respects I suppose this was O’Keefe’s attempt to “get ahead of the issue” but I found his statement to be more of his followers provocateur behavior where it’s not about the facts or truth. Apparently he recorded this statement and published it to YouTube on the same day the FBI executed a lawful search and seizure warrant. I do think this is about O’Keefe front facing and going on the offensive once the FBI had executed three search and seizure warrants, two of which were executed days before O’Keefe’s home was raided. Again I want you to remember this isn’t about one search and seizure warrant, this is about at least three.

November 2021 knock - knock -open up -it’s the FBI

As many of you might recall a few months ago (I believe in late November 2021) James O’Keefe aka Project Veritas some how came into possession of first daughter, Ashley Biden’s diary. I am not going to elucidate the purported contents of her diary. Instead I’d like to focus on the months long legal battle, which was first reported by the New York Times (NYTs) on November 6, 2021, you can read more here —and while I certainly agree that the NYTs report was excellent, it left me wanting more facts.

Sometimes my insatiable appetite for facts, requires me to take the bull by the horns and doing what I think (operative word) a decent deep dive. This is my way of telling you: to pay attention to the following case, styled as:

In re: Search Warrant dated November 5, 2021 (1:21-mc-00813)

🌶Spicy Sidebar🌶 with less than a month before the 2020 Presidential Election, the National File published what was purportedly pages of First Daughter Ashley Biden’s diary (I vacillated on do I or do I not include the October 24, 2020 National File article) to be clear I’m not one to wittingly or unwittingly amplify disinformation or misinformation. Nonetheless I decided that my readers should read the National File October 24, 2020 “news” article -to be clear I am in no way vouching for the authenticity of validating of the contents of that “news” article. My unsolicited input is if you decide to read it, you should read it with an iceberg size grain of salt. I’d like you to remember:

October 24, 2020 National File article…

There is a very specific reason I want you to remember that date. Moreover according to Media Bias Fact-Check:

“…National File frequently publishes conspiracies such as the Clintons being involved in human sex trafficking to World Trade Center conspiracies, implying that the towers were taken down by controlled demolition. Both claims have been debunked. They also reject human-influenced climate change and frequently resort to pseudoscience or junk science to validate their points. Finally, they promote anti-vaccine propaganda: Parents Take To The Streets To Save Vaccine Exemptions From Political Elites. In general, National File is a light version of Infowars that lacks credibility.

…National File an extreme right Tin-Foil Hat Conspiracy website based on the promotion of unproven/debunked claims and a Strong Pseudoscience purveyor based on using junk science to support claim…”

The following MSNBC segment really does a decent job of reporting and encapsulating the alleged Ashley Biden diary. Again I do not want to focus on the materiality and substance of First Daughter Ashley Biden’s “purported diary” because in my view that’s a red herring. Again the goal is to focus on James O’Keefe, Project Veritas and the other (non-credible) “right-wing -QANON-sense media that published purported excerpts…

This is WHY one should read ALL the court filings

However let’s go ahead and dive into the facts contained herein. At all relevant I will include an ECF link (which is paywalled) but I’ll also include a Scribd link so you don’t have to pay for these public court filings. Also fair warning this is going to be a very long but hopefully a very worthwhile read and use of your time. Because the facts contained herein are pretty extraordinary

• November 12, 2021: MOTION TO APPOINT SPECIAL MASTER. Document filed by Search Warrant dated November 5, 2021. See SDNY-ECF for Document # 1. I would like to draw your attention to what I’ve redlined and highlighted -specifically the following disclosure; the government had voluntarily “stop its extraction and potential review of [Petitioner] O’Keefe’s phone after the filing” -also note that it’s cellphones versus a singular cellphone…

  

• ORDER: The Court has reviewed Petitioners motion for appointment of a special master dated November 10, 2021. Accordingly, 1. By November 12, 2021, the Government shall confirm via email that it has paused its extraction and review of the contents of Petitioner OKeefes phones; 2. By November 16, 2021, the Government shall provide the Court with its response to Petitioners motion; 3. By November 19, 2021, Petitioners shall provide the Court with their reply, if any. Responses due by 11/16/2021 Replies due by 11/19/2021. (Signed by Judge Analisa Torres on 11/11/2021 see SDNY ECF for Document No 2 -the filing is some 37 pages long and when I tell you it’s a riveting read -see Scribd link too

O’Keefe’s 2010 Final Judgement precludes him…

Remember how I explained O’Keefe’s 2010 plea agreement and that there was a pretty strict condition, specifically the prohibition of O’Keefe owning a firearm, ammunition and/or any destructive device?

May 27, 2010 JUDGMENT as to James O'Keefe (4), Count(s) 1, sentencing held 5/26/10. Signed by Magistrate Judge Daniel E. Knowles, III on 5/26/10

Well you probably are unaware of: O'Keefe v. Federal Bureau Of Investigation (7:20-cv-06146) See SDNY-ECF here O’Keefe argued that his 2010 guilty plea was later reduced to a misdemeanor and that the Government and the Courts infringed on his “God given Second Amendment Rights” specifically barring him from owning a firearm, ammunition and/or destructive device

• on August 25, 2020 FIRST AMENDED COMPLAINT amending 1 Complaint, against Federal Bureau Of Investigation, United States Of America with JURY DEMAND.Document filed by James Edward O'Keefe, III. Related document: 1 Complaint -See SDNY-ECF

• On February 1, 2021 - ORDER OF DISMISSAL: Accordingly, this case is dismissed without prejudice pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(m), 4(i), and 41(b). The Clerk is instructed to close this case. SO ORDERED -see SDNY-ECF

To date, plaintiff has not responded to the Court’s January 4, 2021, Order, and has provided no good cause for his failure to comply with Rules 4(m) or 4(i). The Court concludes plaintiff has abandoned this case.

O’Keefe’s attempts to stonewall the investigation:

Apologies if that was disjointed but I needed a slight pallet cleanser because O’Keefe’s search warrant case is giving me flashbacks of Michael Cohen and Mike Flynn so I needed to have a slight detour —and now back to O’Keefe’s search warrant litigation. I’ll keep repeating this, if you want facts you can easily obtain them by merely reading the entire docket. I spent the majority of my weekend reading some 700+ pages and boy it was well worth it. And while the previously mentioned NYTs article only had one sentence disclosing the existence of a Grand Jury -they failed to full explain how many tentacles are involved. For Example- two days prior to the FBI’s Nov 2021 raid-execution of a search warrant, apparently the NYTs didn’t realize that days before two of O’Keefe’s raid the FBI had executed search warrants *see page 4 which reads in part:

…On November 5, 2021, at approximately 6:00 AM, the FBI executed search warrants at the homes of two former Project Veritas journalists, seizing their cell phones and other electronic devices. On information and belief, at least one of the electronic devices seized from a former Project Veritas journalist likewise contains protected information belonging to Project Veritas.

The most laughable part of O’Keefe’s filing is he tries to paint the Biden Administration, the DOJ and the FBI as authoritarian overlords who are trying to silence him. When the investigation commenced under the Trump Administration. I mean I guess I can kind of understand when Trump et al engaging in vast seditious conspiracy how they might have overlooked that it was the Trump Administration who initiated the investigation… but I digress

Grand Jury Subpoenas, you have my undivided attention:

As many of you know, I am a strong supporter of “you don’t know, what you don’t know” but if you take the time to read Court filings, you can find out a plethora of facts and then “you know what you know” —Not rumor or supposition, but actual facts. It’s stunning to me what Project Veritas and James O’Keefe filed and I lost count of the numerous conclusory arguments they made. But also keep in mind that O’Keefe has often weaponize our Judicial system in the furtherance of his disinformation and misinformation scheme. And I probably should laugh but boy did I when I read O’Keefe was handcuffed in his underwear

Starting on page 4 - O’Keefe & his counsel launched a bevy on conclusory arguments, explicitly stating that someone at DOJ leaked to the NYTs… again O’Keefe offers zero evidence that the DOJ and/or FBI inappropriately leaked to the NYTs reporters. Not to belabor the point but that is a textbook conclusory argument and it is O’Keefe’s burden of proof to proffer any evidence of an leak. Absent that his argument is without merit but then again I could be wrong.

This leaked information likely was intended to preemptively deflect criticism that the DOJ was being used to target a news organization viewed by some as critical of the Biden administration over the matter of the President Biden’s daughter’s diary.

The government also appears to have leaked to the New York Times the news of the search warrant it executed at James O’Keefe’s home. Shortly after the execution of the warrant, Mr. O’Keefe received the following message from Michael Schmidt, a New York Times reporter:

For the record it wasn’t the Government that disclosed the Grand Jury Subpoena, no that was James O’Keefe -as you can see he went to great lengths in his disclosures. One can only assume O’Keefe is establishing a predicate that he’s a venerable reporter and that Project Veritas is a credible news organization. Nothing could be further than the truth or facts.

The government’s leaks to the press are all the more remarkable in light of the cautionary language the USAO included with its grand jury subpoena issued to Project Veritas:

• The Government hereby requests that you voluntarily refrain from disclosing the existence of the subpoena to any third party. While you are under no obligation to comply with our request, we are requesting you not to make any disclosure in order to preserve the confidentiality of the investigation and because disclosure of the existence of this investigation might interfere with and impede the investigation.

Trump’s former attorney Stefan Passantino, James O’Keefe & Project Veritas -the tie that binds

Now let’s take a look at page 7 -here O’Keefe attempts it buttress his Attorney Client Privilege and work product doctrine by arguing (and stunningly) that much of the items on the seized devices have an extraordinary amount of Attorney Client Privilege communiques. And while you might disagree with me, I do think there are some arguments that O’Keefe might have legs to stand on but overall that’s a lot of attorneys (hence why I pulled down Project Veritas’ IRS-990s). Page 7 reads in part (also pay attention to what I redlined & highlighted)

The attorney-client privileged and work product material on the cell phones relate to both litigation and non-litigation matters, including both currently pending matters and historic matters.

The following is a preliminary list of lawyers with whom there are privileged communications on Mr. O’Keefe’s phones. It illustrates the huge amount of privileged material the government has seized…

Stefan Passantino previously worked for the Trump Administration, as Deputy White House Counsel and Designated Agency Ethics Official -see April 2017 Letter from Senator Warren to Passantino:

Members of Congress Raise Ethics Concerns about Deputy White House Counsel - Passantino's Role Is to Police Trump Administration Conflicts of Interest - But Documents Reveal His Own Conflicts with Icahn, Carson, Price

But and this is why I suppose I’m still employed, my memory is like a fortified mind vault - during the House Judiciary Committee investigation into Trump. AMI, Michael Cohen:

• See June 2017 letter to OGE RE Passantino

• See December 2018 DOJ Non-Prosecution Agreement

• See December 2018 DOJ-OPA re Cohen and AMI

• See March 2019 House Judiciary Letter to Passantino

• See the 2018 House Judiciary Committee Subpoena/Schedule A to AMI

• See September 2020 the NC Pulse Blog: Trump lawyer Stefan Passantino is attorney for company that tried to infiltrate NC voter groups

Throughout O’Keefe’s November 2021 filing, he contended that no other reporter or news organization have been targeted by the DOJ -I’d like to remind you of what happened in the Summer of 2021 -whereby Attorney General Garland vowed to end the Trump Administration’s (arguably unethical) policy of subpoenaing various reporters communiques. What O’Keefe attempts in his initial Nov 2021 filing concerning the search and seizure warrants —that he & Project Veritas are being targeted. His argument strains credulity and it’s actually pretty offensive, for reason explained in this article… to date I’ve yet to verify which “local Florida Law Enforcement” organization that O’Keefe purportedly handed the allege Ashley Biden diary too. I could speculate but I think a better approach is to wait and see. Based on O’Keefe’s filing.

Not to belabor the point here but both in the NYTs article and in O’Keefe’s filing -agree that the initial investigation began under the Trump Administration. That’s not an opinion, those are the facts -as elucidated on page 5 and reads in part:

The Trump administration Justice Department, then led by Attorney General William P. Barr, opened an investigation into the matter shortly after a representative of the Biden family reported to federal authorities in October 2020 that several of Ms. Biden’s personal items had been stolen in a burglary, according to two people briefed on the matter.

Dec 2021 Special Master Granted & Reports:

The following is not intended to be a criticism against the Court or the Government. Generally speaking, the appointment of a Special Master is warranted in this matter. This was a prudent move by all parties. And no you are not reading this incorrectly —the SDNY Court appointment of Barbara Jones is in fact the same special master from 2018 re Michael Cohen’s search and seizure warrants. In my view Barbara Jones did an exemplary job, she was fair and pragmatic. I would expect the same ethical standards as she displayed in 2018 and 2019.

• Dec 8, 2021 ORDER granting in part and denying in part 1 Motion re: 1 MOTION MOTION TO APPOINT SPECIAL MASTER. For the reasons stated above, Petitioners' motions are GRANTED in part and DENIED in part. SO ORDERED.. (Signed by Judge Analisa Torres on 12/8/2021 See SDNY-ECF below is the relevant portion of the December 8, 2021 Order and I want you to read the following carefully:

  

The Court recognizes, as other courts in this district have concluded, that “the Southern District prosecutors have integrity and decency,” and the filter team alone could conduct the review “with utmost integrity.” In re Search Warrants Executed on April 9, 2018, No. 18 Mag.3161 (S.D.N.Y. May 2, 2018), ECF No. 38 at 8; see also United States v. Grant, No. 04 Cr. 207, 2004 WL 1171258, at *3 (S.D.N.Y. May 25, 2004).

However, the Court determines that the appointment of a special master is warranted here because “it is important that the procedure adopted . . . not only be fair but also appear to be fair.” Stewart, 2002 WL 1300059, at *8. In light of the potential First Amendment concerns that may be implicated by the review of the materials seized from Petitioners, the Court finds that the appointment of a special master will “help[] to protect the public’s confidence in the administration of justice.” Id

• Dec 28, 2021 SPECIAL MASTER'S REPORT. / Report and Recommendation of the Special Master. Document filed by Barbara S. Jones.. see SDNY-ECF

  

And while it’s reasonable to assume that the party requesting the Special Master should be 100% responsible for the cost/expenses of a Special Master, it appears that both the Government & O’Keefe decided to split the baby and agreed each side will share 50% of the cost —well that was the plan until the Government filed this letter (on January 11, 2021) - for now I’d keep an eye out for the Special Master Report. Again I’m not necessarily castigating the DOJ or the Court for appointing a special master.

I genuinely think this was a prudent and pragmatic decision. Conversely I am absolutely incredulous that years later it appear James O’Keefe and Project Veritas are pulling a play out of the Trump playbook. The end result is by taking this stance O’Keefe attempt to abort the Government’s ongoing criminal investigation, even in its infancy is just emblematic of Trump’s sycophants engaging in obstructive behavior which seeks to either kill an investigation in its infancy or delay and then deploy an aggressive front facing media blitz to some how paint O’Keefe as a reputable journalist. When the facts clearly show O’Keefe isn’t a credible journalist and Project Veritas has never changed its tactics. I know there’s a lot of information contain herein but I wanted my readers to look at this in a much broader context.

And lastly my week is insane (I have 2 bills currently sent to a committee to essentially die on the vine) and my clients need me to work my magic. Which typically includes ambushing a lawmaker at the elevator before 7:25AM with a coffee in hand. So if I have free time I might publish on a daily basis but as of Monday February 7, 2022 my week looks like an average of 16+ hour work days.

Also the fact the National Archives sent employees to Mar-A-Largo to take possession of numerous boxes president Trump (unlawfully) absconded with, well that shouldn’t surprise any of you. Donald J Trump has a long and I mean very long documented history of destroying evidence. Because that’s who he is, a lawless, power hungry, authoritarian jackass. Eventually his “dirty deeds” will catch up to him and I’ll be waiting with freshly popped popcorn to watch the 🍊💩🐒beclown himself. But one thing I can tell you is someone in Trump’s inner circle either alerted the National Archivist or the House Select Committee. I could be wrong about that assertion but I can tell you that I do not think I’m wrong —it’s a reasonable assumption given some are wondering “how did the National Archives know Trump had unlawfully taken those boxes to Mar-A-Largo… again I could be wrong and it’s absolutely appropriate for you to be skeptical of my assertion. As of now I don’t have any documentation or communiques to support my assertion. Unlike some I know how DC actually works and I am pretty sure my track record is pretty solid -as I typically make an assertion predicated on facts or first hand experience.

At any rate have a great week and don’t freak out if I go dark for a day or two —eventually I’ll pop back up. -Filey
