Former IRS Chief Urged Investigation of the Freedom Center

The former IRS Chief of Exempt Organizations had read Front Page Magazine and he wasn't happy.

The former head of the IRS Exempt Organizations Technical Division in D.C. had been part of the "Inner circle" of Lois Lerner, who had been at the heart of the IRS conservative targeting scandal.

While Friedlander had retired before the scandal, he went on defending the IRS and denying that political motives had been involved in the targeting of conservative organizations.

"Include some of the most powerful and influential figures in the Trump administration: Attorney General Sessions, senior policy adviser Miller and White House chief strategist Stephen K. Bannon" and argued that "Horowitz's story shows how charities have become essential to modern political campaigns, amid lax enforcement of the federal limits on their involvement in politics." It was a pitch by a big government paper read by every major bureaucrat in D.C. to the IRS to investigate the Freedom Center in order to stop Trump.

The Post's attack on the Freedom Center rested on its claim that we "Had assumed a leading role in the hard-right branch of the network" and that we were violating IRS rules because we were "Openly involved in fighting a political war with the left." That multiple huge leftist nonprofits like Media Matters were involved in fighting a war with conservatives was however not an issue.

On June 3, a little over a week later, the Washington Post had run a major hit piece on us calling for the IRS to shut us down.

The IRS accused us of "Electioneering" and intervening to hurt Hillary and help Trump.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents. In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

Republicans Withdraw $1 Billion From BlackRock Due To Its ESG Policies

  Multiple U.S. states governed by Republicans are withdrawing state funds from BlackRock's management, as they disapprove of the ESG investment policies of the world's top asset manager, the Financial Times reports.

The Biden-Harris White House Has An Iranian Spy Leaking U.S. Intelligence In It

 The question is, how did classified intelligence from the United States, showing Israeli military movements that suggest broader action against Iran, get to Tehran? The answer raises uncomfortable questions for the Biden-Harris White House, which has opposed Israel every step of the way in responding to Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Defying Biden got Israel the entire leadership of Hezbollah and Hamas, with the ultimate threat still looming: Iran and its nuclear program. Operations against Iran are being assessed also because Iran has started firing ballistic missiles into Israel, targeting civilian centers across the country. If Israel is close to launching a broader offensive against Iran, leaking U.S. intelligence would be a way to both try and deter Israel and give more warning to Iran. In 2012, similar allegations were made against the Obama administration when U.S. intelligence leaks showed that Israel was working towards using "Azerbaijan as a base of operations in the event...
