The new filing doesn't add any additional information.

The Nov 21 and Dec 16 indictments were also light on details. Simply stating what the charges were.

No speaking indictments in this case.

The information that supports the additional charges can be found on the docket in this filing

Here are the threads of what is happening right now in this case:

-Cole is in jail pending trial; the defense has appealed this.

-Defense has filed a motion to dismiss based on Trump's J6 pardons applying to Cole

-Defense filed a motion for the return of subpoenas related to subjects/POIs of the pipe bomb investigation... and in so doing revealed the identity of three witnesses in the case, their private information, and accused one of the witnesses of being the actual pipe bomber. The filing clearly violated the protective order in this case that the judge issued at the beginning of it, and it's difficult to interpret it as being anything other than a very dirty play. Not a mistake, an intentional dirty play.

-Prosecutors want the defense held in contempt for this egregious violation and have filed a show cause motion.

-The violative filing was public for a short time, and I quickly read it, but it was sealed soon after. There is now a motion by the defense to unseal it, but with some redactions.

-And now there is a 2nd superseding indictment.

I have playlists covering the happenings in this case on my Rumble and YouTube pages. I'm about to record a couple more now.

Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control is abbreviated as OFAC, but when folks get administrative subpoenas from them, they often mispronounce the acronym.
According to CodePink co-founder Medea Benjamin, the email from OFAC was sent to the other co-founder, Jodie Evans's, spam folder. Image
OFAC is seeking a lot of information from Codepink regarding their visit to Cuba.

"Approximately 170 people participated in the convoy and suggested the scope of the inquiry could require organizers to account for the activities of every participant." Image

🧵United States v. Rush

David Rush is a former Senior Executive Service (SES) and CIA employee.

He was arrested last week on a complaint charging him with theft of public money.

But there's a bit more going on here. Image
It is not known when Rush stopped working for the CIA or why, but we know from the affidavit that he requested and received "a significant quantity of foreign currency and tens of millions of dollars in gold bars for work-related expenses" between November 2025 and March 2026.

So his employment must have run at least until then.Image
At some point, I'm guessing between March and early May, the CIA began an investigation/review of what Rush was up to.

They were "unable to locate the gold bars or significant amounts of the foreign currency Rush received pursuant to his requests or to identify the intended use of these funds."Image

🧵YSK:

The "data center hysteria" is largely a repacking of the "climate change hysteria."

The hysteria is fueled, in part, by bad data, lack of perspective, and influence operations that lead with emotional bait.

Like the 20th-century predictions of climate catastrophes, it is another form of anti-capitalism (pro-communism) propaganda meant to capture your mind through fear.Image
A teachable moment.

In 2025, a left-wing anti-AI author, Karen Hao, published her non-fiction book 'Empire of AI: Dreams and Nightmares in Sam Altman's OpenAI.'

It's done very well. A NYT bestseller and winner of multiple awards, the book received much praise. Image
Anti-AI and anti-data center sentiments, which go hand in hand, are now mainstream, and this book boosted them there.

You may have noticed the uptick in opposition to both.

Sometimes the angle of surveillance, aka "Big Brother," is also included. Image

🧵Look past the language of Trump trying to "control" elections, and you see that DHS and DOJ are hard at work trying to clean up our elections.

Reuters uncovered a broader‑than‑previously known Trump administration effort to gain federal control over elections, historically run locally, in at least eight states – using investigations, raids and demands for access to balloting systems and voter ID."Image
Here's where Reuters gets the language of "control" from. It's understandable, but it's also hyperbole—hyperbole that Trump also uses, so fair is fair. Image
About one third of the way into the article, Reuters admits Trump isn't really trying to implement a federal takeover of elections.

"Rather than seek a sweeping federal takeover of elections, the administration appears to be testing constitutional limits one state and one county at a time"Image

Kerkhoff v. Blaze Media LLC

Steve Baker, Joseph Hanneman, and their company Veritas Regnat LLC have failed to respond to the libel and slander lawsuit brought against them over their erroneous claims that former Capitol Police officer Shauni Kerkhoff was responsible for the J5 Pipe Bombs.

The judge has ordered the clerk to file an entry of default against them and for the plaintiffs to file a motion for default judgment.
storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…Image
Blaze Media, which was also sued, has filed an unopposed motion for more time to respond to the suit. The judge gave them until June 11, 2026. Image
In public responses to the lawsuit, Baker has put on a "bring it on!" act, as if he were eager to fight it, to show what evidence he supposedly has, and to use the discovery process to expose some conspiracy to frame Brian J. Cole for the J5 pipe bombs when all along it was Shauni Kerkhoff who planted them as part of a sinister "fedsurrection" plot... or something.

Kerkhoff v. Blaze Media LLC

Plaintiff Kerkhoff, who is suing Blaze Media, Steve Baker, Joseph Hanneman, and their company Veritas Regnet for falsely accusing Kerkhoff of being the J5 Pipe Bomber, has filed for a default against Steve Baker, as he has failed to respond to the lawsuit.Image
Baker is fully aware of the suit and is still pushing his bullshit theory that Kerkhoff is behind the pipe bombs.
