The Patriot Post® · Who Is Lying?

As we noted yesterday, the FBI finally presented a subpoenaed document to the House Oversight Committee regarding an alleged bribery scheme involving then-Vice President Joe Biden. Nevertheless, Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer is still pursuing contempt charges against FBI Director Christopher Wray.

Why? Because Wray won’t surrender the document as the subpoena requires to the committee. He merely gave them a briefing on it and brief access to it.

What’s the issue?

According to Chairman Comer, “the FBI confirmed that the unclassified [document] has not been disproven and is currently being used in an ongoing investigation.” It’s also being reported that the FBI is expressing concerns for the physical safety of the “highly credible” informant who disclosed the Biden bribery scheme.

Well, that contradicts the FBI’s leak to NBC News, which reported that the FBI “reviewed the allegation when it was made” and determined that it “was not substantiated.” If the FBI dismissed the allegation three years ago, why would it be part of an ongoing investigation today?

Clearly, someone is lying. But who?

Did the FBI lie to NBC News? Did NBC News lie to the American people? Or did the FBI lie to Chairman Comer?

Here’s the bottom line: The FBI is not a law unto itself. It must not be allowed to ignore congressional subpoenas.

And it must not be allowed to continue to operate the way it has been operating — routinely violating the privacy of American citizens and repeatedly interfering in our elections.

Not surprisingly, a new poll conducted after the release of the damning Durham report finds that 63% of Americans want serious reforms of the FBI or they want it shut down and entirely rebuilt.

It also adds considerable context to what former FBI director James Comey said to former Biden White House Press Secretary, now MSNBC host, Jen Psaki. In what we are supposed to believe was a legitimate journalistic interview, a former Biden official interviewed a left-wing bureaucrat and asked, “What’s your view of 2024?”

Comey said, “It has to be Joe Biden… The president must be someone who abides by the law and our Constitution.” He said that with a straight face about someone who has violated both the spirit and the letter of law and the Constitution!

2024 Update

Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is set to announce his campaign for the GOP presidential nomination. Many observers believe Christie missed his best shot at the White House in 2012, and there’s literally no reason why Christie is competing for the nomination now.

Evidently, he can’t think of a compelling reason either. He has strongly insinuated that he is only in the race to slice and dice Donald Trump by saying things the other candidates won’t because they don’t want to divide the party.

Meanwhile, New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu announced Monday that he is not running. It’s very revealing that he made his announcement via an op-ed in the Washington Post.

That’s the problem with establishment Republicans — they care too much about what the Washington Post thinks rather than what the American people think.

Fighting The Globalists

The World Health Organization (WHO) announced Monday that it is launching a collaboration with the European Union (EU) to form a global digital vaccine passport system. The WHO claims this will help facilitate global mobility and protect citizens around the world from future pandemics.

In fact, what it does is invest more power in the WHO to restrict global mobility in future health threats. We’ve seen that movie before. It’s terrible, and I don’t want to see it again!

We were shocked during the COVID pandemic by how eager many leftists were to suspend basic human rights. Even here in the United States, the left smashed civil liberties in the name of fighting the pandemic.

Thankfully, our courts are finally recognizing that our Constitution was violated with impunity by officials at all levels of government.

Schools were closed. Businesses were closed. Churches were closed. Open debate about the virus, the vaccines, and “the science” was shut down. If you dared to question the conventional wisdom, you were banned and canceled.

Far too many people, especially our children, needlessly suffered because of the whims of petty, power-hungry bureaucrats.

Monday’s WHO announcement is exactly what many conservatives, including our long-time friends former Congresswoman Michele Bachmann and the Dr. James Dobson Family Institute, have been warning about.

This is the first building block of a global health system that ultimately wants to overrule national sovereignty in the name of fighting health emergencies. And it won’t be long before climate change is a global health emergency.

This ongoing challenge is part of the globalist agenda to “fundamentally transform America.”

The Disgusting Dodgers

The Dodgers’ big “Pride Night” is June 16th. As you know, the Dodgers sparked a massive outcry when they invited the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a group that engages in sexualized burlesque mockery of Catholic nuns, to participate in their pride event.

The Dodgers quickly disinvited the group, presumably because they were afraid of offending the four million Catholics who live in Los Angeles, as well as other Christian fans.

But virtually all the other members of the LGBTQ mafia told the Dodgers that if they didn’t let the Sisters mock Catholics and Christianity, none of them would participate. The Dodgers’ management immediately caved and even apologized to the anti-Catholic bigots.

It turns out that June 16th is also a significant day on the Catholic calendar. It is the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

Bishop Joseph Strickland is leading a march to Dodger Stadium on June 16th to protest the offense committed against Jesus Christ and all Christians by the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence. (Among other disgusting things, the Sisters use the cross with Christ hanging on it as a prop for a suggestive pole dance.)

ACTION ITEM: Please call the Los Angeles Dodgers at 1-866-363-4377 and press 9 to reach their administrative office. Firmly, but politely, express your disappointment and outrage that the team would engage in this kind of disrespect to Jesus Christ and Christian baseball fans.

It doesn’t matter whether you’re a Catholic or Evangelical. Anyone who cares about religious tolerance should be against the Dodgers “honoring” these perpetual haters.

Remembering D-Day

Yesterday was the 79th anniversary of D-Day. More than 150,000 American and Allied troops, many just 18 years-old or in their early 20s, landed on the beaches of Normandy to liberate an entire continent from the evils of national socialism (Nazis).

We might be able to honor those brave men best today by re-reading the tremendous prayer that President Franklin D. Roosevelt delivered to the nation as the liberation of Europe was under way. Here is a brief excerpt:

“Almighty God: Our sons, pride of our Nation, this day have set upon a mighty endeavor, a struggle to preserve our Republic, our religion, and our civilization, and to set free a suffering humanity. Lead them straight and true; give strength to their arms, stoutness to their hearts, steadfastness in their faith…

"And, O Lord, give us Faith. Give us Faith in Thee; Faith in our sons; Faith in each other; Faith in our united crusade. Let not the keenness of our spirit ever be dulled. Let not the impacts of temporary events … deter us in our unconquerable purpose.

"With Thy blessing, we shall prevail over the unholy forces of our enemy… Thy will be done, Almighty God. Amen.”

This is a good prayer to remember in our own pleas that God would give us that same strength and courage as we endeavor to save our country today from the increasingly unhinged socialist, authoritarian left.

The leftists obsessed with race and “systemic racism” should learn the history of World War II. America and our allies defeated the evil of Nazism that was also obsessed with race and really made systemic racism part of its totalitarian regime.
