🧵Under FEMA's Emergency Food & Shelter Program is a section called Humanitarian EFSP for Organizations Assisting Migrants

Included is a table which lists yearly funding of humanitarian relief for illegals at the border. The numbers are huge: $715 million
fema.gov/grants/emergen…Image Unlike the other grants that we found, there are no links to final recipients or a breakdown of how the amounts are spent. We do get a link to FEMA’s actual Emergency Food and Shelter Program (EFSP) - but it takes us to a password locked site.

A site that shows what must be the recipients of this portion of FEMA’s funding: United Way; The Jewish Federation, Catholic Charities USA; Salvation Army; The National Council of the Churches of Christ, and; The American Red Cross.

1) Mark Zuckerberg made some huge admissions in his recent letter to the House Judiciary GOP.

Zuckerberg admitted that the Biden-Harris Administration "pressured" Facebook to censor stories on the origin of Covid. He admitted that the FBI pressured Facebook to censor the Hunter Laptop story. And he admitted that Facebook did what the government asked - censor Americans.

Zuckerberg also, sort of, addressed his personal contributions during the 2020 election. He appeared to be contrite for his actions, but is that in any way correct? Or is he simply worried because he got caught? A closer look at Facebook's actions over the years may answer that question.Image 2) The efforts of Zuckerberg and Facebook on behalf of Democrats and the DNC goes back to at least 2012 when Facebook shared their user data with the Obama campaign.

Obama’s Election Team was given full access to Facebook’s data in 2012. Access that was not - and would not have been granted to Conservatives.

As a result, any time people used Facebook’s log-in button to sign on to the campaign’s website, the Obama data scientists were able to access their profile as well as their friends’ information. That allowed them to chart the closeness of people’s relationships and make estimates about which people would be most likely to influence other people in their network to vote.

“We ingested the entire U.S. social graph,” Carol Davidsen said in an interview. “We would ask permission to basically scrape your profile, and also scrape your friends, basically anything that was available to scrape. We scraped it all.”

Davidson also highlighted the favoritism Facebook gave to Obama’s campaign, noting that Facebook “came to office in the days following election recruiting & were very candid that they allowed us to do things they wouldn’t have allowed someone else to do because they were on our side.”

Which raises an important question. If Facebook gave the Obama Campaign access to valuable data worth millions of dollars to bolster Obama’s chances of winning the election, why wasn’t it counted as in-kind political contributions by the Obama Campaign?

John Solomon filed for Summary Judgement in regards to obtaining Trump's "Binder of Declassified Documents."

It tells some of the backstory to declass - and how the DOJ sucked those documents back in.

Meadows role detailed as well.

We know from an email sent by George Kent, deputy chief of mission in Kyiv, that a $7mm bribe was paid to the office of Ukrainian chief prosecutor Vitaly Yarema some time in latter part of 2014. Yarema's office issued a Dec 25, 2014 letter to the UK Courts - who had been investigating Zlochevsky - stating there was no longer an active Ukraine investigation into Zlochevsky.

This letter forced the UK Court to drop case.

Two days after Joe Biden's newly disclosed Dec 4, 2015 conference call w/Hunter & Burisma owner Zlochevsky, Biden's staff crafted answers to potential questions Joe might get re: Hunter's involvement w/Burisma

One of those questions:

Do you think Zlochevsky is corrupt? Image Biden's defenders like @RepDanGoldman have claimed Joe Biden didn't know these individuals - or anything about them.

But Geoffrey Pyatt, US Ambassador to Ukraine wrote to Biden's staff on Dec 6, 2015, "I assume all have the DoJ background on Zlochevsky." Image

Major problems here:

During Archer's interview, Goldman conflates UK Investigation w/Shokin.

UK investigation ended in Dec 2014 because prior prosecutor Yarema - NOT Shokin - stated there was no active investigation

DoS George Kent's email clarifies: https://t.co/TICvROVZ6yjustthenews.com/sites/default/…
Here, Kent describes UK Investigation - and how it ended in late Dec 2014 because Yarema told UK Courts "there was no active case open on Zlochevsky"

Kent also mentions the $7mm bribe paid to Yarema's office.

Yarema resigned shortly after on Feb 9, 2015. Shokin replaced him. Image

1) I've become increasingly convinced that "RussiaGate" may have actually originated w/Biden.

Not in order to protect Biden, but rather to protect Obama - and the DC Establishment's way of doing business.

Allow me to explain my thinking.
2) Most are familiar w/sequence of events leading to the firing of Ukrainian prosecutor Víctor Shokin - as the direct result of political and financial pressure from then-VP Joe Biden.

This thread, which focuses on Shokin timeline, is a good refresher:

1) There has been ongoing confusion surrounding the timing and actions of Ukrainian Prosecutor General Victor Shokin - the man whom Biden pressured Ukrainian President Poroshenko to fire. One of the ways this has been done — intentionally or otherwise — has been to conflate the actions of Shokin's predecessor, Vitaly Yarema, with Shokin.

It's starting to make sense.

Shokin fired on March 29, 2016. Sevruk temp replacement. Met w/Blue Star on April 6th & reportedly memorialized meeting:

When this broke, I assumed it was an effort/response by IC to muddy the waters. TBH, I still think that.

BUT:

Elena Baturina's $3.5mm unexplained 2/14 payment to Hunter has always bothered me.

Especially as we know Baturina/Zlochevsky/Hunter can be tied to two later meetings. Feb. 14, 2014 - Russian businesswoman Elena Baturina wired a $3.5 million payment to Hunter's Rosemont Seneca.

Baturina was married to the late Yuri Luzhkov, who was the mayor of Moscow.

Baturina also sent a series of payments between May 6, 2015, and Dec. 8, 2015, to Rosemont. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

I've always questioned why Ukraine's National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) suddenly entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the FBI.

By February 9, 2016, the FBI had a permanent representative onsite at NABU offices.
web.archive.org/web/2023040511… The FBI presence onsite happened exactly as Biden was forcing the firing of Burisma prosecutor Shokin.

The stated purpose of having FBI onsite at the Ukraine offices was to trace "monetary flows."

Which is very odd.

1) Unknown if directly related, but a damning Nov 2, 2015 email on Hunter's laptop was from Vadym Pozharskyi, head of Burisma’s board.

Pozharskyi directed Hunter to “close down" "any cases or pursuits” against Burisma owner Zlochevsky in Ukraine.
archive.is/i5E06 2) Three weeks later, on Nov. 22, VP Joe Biden demanded the removal of Ukraine prosecutor Victor Shokin.

Biden's sudden demand seemed odd as US State Dept officials had previously praised Shokin in the months leading up to Biden's demand for Shokin's removal.

Democrats have fabricated a fictitious Russia-Collusion/Russian-Interference narrative in two consecutive presidential elections — altering the outcome of those elections in the process. In each of those elections, the Intelligence Community played a direct and willing role.

Brennan pushed information into the FBI regarding the Trump Campaign in 2015, The FBI used that info to open Crossfire Hurricane Investigation.

The real story is how corporate media organizations, rather than focusing on the content of the revealing documents themselves, chose to focus on finding out who leaked them.

And we have quite a few questions.

In early February 2020, James Le Duc (a prominent Fauci-funded virologist who personally trained staff at Wuhan Institute of Virology) privately voiced concerns to the vice-director of Wuhan Institute Virology, Yuan Zhiming, that the pandemic had originated from the Wuhan lab. The email sent by Le Duc to Yuan contained a document titled “Investigation into the possibility that the nCoV was the result of a release from the Wuhan Institute of Virology (main campus or new BSL3/BSL4 facilities).”

This is actually not entirely new:

“On February 23, 2017, a Shanghai based company … that was affiliated with CEFC China Energy, sent a $3,000,000 wire” to Robinson Walker, a company associated with Hunter Biden’s business associate, Rob Walker.
theepochtimes.com/after-republic… Another $3 million was sent on March 1, 2017. Although it is not yet known with precision what happened with the $6 million, it is known that Hunter Biden received regular payments from Walker’s company, along with more than $500,000 from Walker directly.
