Look who just got vindicated. Again. The IRS whistleblowers, who:

1. Got the search warrant that authenticated the Hunter Biden Laptop *before* the 51 former intel officials lied about it.

2. Reported the Garland DOJ to Congress for taking a dive. 🧵⬇️ Image
After 20 long months, the staff at @US_OSC told us that the IRS could not support its decision to remove IRS SSA Gary Shapley and SA Joe Ziegler from the Hunter Biden case.

That removal happend, of course, shortly after the IRS learned that they were blowing the whistle to Congress.Image
Their work life has been changed ever since. Look how far the IRS management will go.

One recently altered the date on document to hide slow walking on another ongoing law enforcement operation, apparently trying to falsely paint Shapley in a bad light.

One of many examples. Image
It's time for the bureaucratic mumbo jumbo and delays to end. The system is too slow to give whistleblowers the meaningful remedies they deserve.

@US_OSC took too long confirm these primary allegations, and still failed to substantiate all the other instances of retaliation we have been reporting to them since.

SSA Shapley has been passed over for promotions and we will still seek remedies for that retaliation before the @USMSPB.Image
As recently as January 2025, IRS management altered the date on a request from Shapley, seemingly to conceal its own delays and misrepresent the timeliness of Shapley’s request relating to an ongoing law enforcement operation. Image

What are Senators Schiff and Booker hiding?

They seemed to think they knew of something damning in Patel’s secret grand jury testimony but their questioning was incoherent.

Did Jack Smith’s prosecutors feed the Senators some half-baked smear that they failed to land?

Bizarre.
I can tell you from personal experience—nothing chaps the hide of a Member of Congress or VIP more than being exposed as a fool by a lowly staffer.

Kash Patel did that to Schiff spectacularly when working for Nunes on House Intel

Schiff is obviously never going to get over it.

Here's the full response to Abbe Lowell's request to throw out the $20 million defamation lawsuit against him by the IRS agents who blew the whistle on Biden's DOJ tanking the Hunter Biden case....

Here's what it's all about. If whistleblowers can be defamed w/o consequence, there will be no whistleblowers. Image
Image
That's the reason this case is necessary. Here's why it's possible: Lowell admitted in a letter to Congress that he was republishing his allegations to the public—which makes them actionable in court when they are knowingly false and defamatory: Image

“Mr. McCabe lied about his own leaking and should have been prosecuted for it, according to the Obama-appointed Justice IG [Horowitz], but wasn’t. …Now that this fishing expedition into the communications of congressional attorneys has been confirmed by the same IG, the new administration needs to finally hold people accountable.”
“And [Foster] said agents and prosecutors withheld from the DC magistrate judge who approved the subpoenas and non-disclosure orders the fact that the targets were congressional attorneys.”
“They misled the court,” he said. “They left out the key fact we were all congressional attorneys. They claimed over and over, with no basis, that we were flight risks or would ‘destroy evidence.’”

You learned that Hillary Clinton & the DNC funded the phony Steele Dossier b/c @ChuckGrassley, me, @DevinNunes, and Kash Patel did our jobs.

Fired-@FBI Dir. Comey later pretended not to know while somehow keeping a straight face. Here's the story... [long tweet]

Many in the press suspected it all along, and some provided me with tidbits suggesting it, but no one could report it—not until a House subpoena forced the information onto the public record.

At the Senate Judiciary Cmte, we received a tip that #FusionGPS was an alias for "Bean, LLC" which actually held bank accounts under that legal entity name. We also received the account number and the bank name for at least one of the accounts.

Senate Judiciary cmte rules were designed to enhance bipartisan cooperation and Minority party rights. But, there was no hope of bipartisanship on this.

After all, the true source of the money was a secret that only one political party in DC desperately wanted to keep.

The rules required either agreement from Ranking Member Feinstein or a full committee vote, which would mean public notice and weeks of debate before issuing a subpoena. We could not share our basis for the subpoena with the other side without betraying the confidential whistleblower and press sources who had tipped us off.

However, the House had granted its Chairmen, including Intel Cmte Chairman Nunes, unilateral subpoena authority.

So, Chairman Nunes issued the subpoena, and after some court battles, Kash Patel got to go through #FusionGPS's bank records.

In the process, the world learned the democrats involved had "lied about it, and with sanctimony, for a year" as even a @nytimes reporter put it.

So, no doubt that many institutionalists at the @FBI hate the thought of Kash Patel as Director b/c far too many of them put loyalty to the Bureau ahead of loyalty to the Constitution—which requires being accountable to democratically elected oversight authorities in both the Legislative and Executive Branches.

The @FBI is not and should never be "independent" of answering to the people's duly elected leaders. Just as the military must submit to civilian control in our constitutional system, so must federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies.

Anyone who suggests otherwise is an imminent threat to your liberty—and definitely not at all into "preserving our democracy."

Kash Patel was a key part of an epic pantsing of the @FBI.

He helped Congress expose the @FBI's shameful abuse of the FISA process to spy on an outsider political campaign for the party in power.

We did our jobs, methodically and professionally, through classified letters and aggressive, independent oversight. They called us crazy conspiracy theorists. They launched hit pieces trying to discredit Members and staffers like Kash Patel and me.

Eventually, enough was declassified that everyone could see what we had seen—what their government had been hiding from them.

An Obama-appointed Inspector General verified all of it and Mueller shuffled away, leaving the scene not with a bang, but a whimper.

Classic @ChuckGrassley throwback: "The Jig Is Up" On "Snake Oil" Russia Collusion Narrative

This video viral after it was re-tweeted by Rep. Devin Nunes, who called it "Perhaps the best @ChuckGrassley clip of all time..."

Here is Chief Judge Boasberg's opinion:

We think he was wrong to treat it as a grand jury secrecy issue. These are court filings required by statute and should be public under the First Amendment—especially in a closed case.

Highlights... ⬇️🧵 dcd.uscourts.gov/sites/dcd/file…

"...the Court need not concern itself with
common law or constitutional rights of access."

Well, that's a disturbing sentence from a judge in the United States of America.

Gag orders are required by statute to only be granted when justified by specific facts.Image
The public has a First Amendment right—and Congress has a constitutional need—to know what it's government is claiming in federal court to justify gag orders to hide its seizing comms records of Cong oversight cmte attys.

W/o those facts, no one knows if DOJ followed the law. Image
