'She's one of us!' Steve Baker stuns Glenn Beck with bombshell revelation about J6 pipe-bomb suspect



Blaze News investigative reporters Steve Baker and Joseph Hanneman have spent years working to identify the masked individual who placed pipe bombs near the headquarters of the Republican National Committee and the Democratic National Committee in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 5, 2021.

Baker, whom the Biden FBI arrested over his January 6 reporting, revealed to Blaze Media co-founder Glenn Beck on Wednesday that they have finally locked in on a suspect. What's more, Baker hinted that the suspect's imminent identification will implicate and shame at least one federal agency.

'It is monstrous.'

Baker told Beck, "When I pulled this thread, I was so shocked by what I saw, I immediately took it to a source in one of the most important, highest-level investigative federal agencies in the country. I immediately took it to our sources there, and I said, 'You have to see this.'"

"After they looked at it for about two hours, the response that I got back was, 'Holy F,'" continued Baker. "And then the follow-up response was, 'She's one of us!'"

When pressed by Beck about his confidence level in the suspect ID, Baker said, "I will tell you that from gait analysis — that's the analysis of the hoodied bomber ... compared to the gait analysis of this individual in private life and at work — that the actual software hit at a 94% accuracy."

"Human analysis from the experts in intelligence is much higher," continued Baker. "They looked at it and went, 'My God, that's it. We got it.'"

Forensic gait analysis — the scientific study of patterns in an individual's style of movement in walking or running — is regarded as one of the most sophisticated approaches to identifying an individual from CCTV footage or video recordings and as especially valuable in the absence of other biometric identifiers.

The American Bar Association's Criminal Justice Magazine noted in 2023 that gait analysis, which has been used to help secure criminal convictions throughout the Anglosphere for decades, "can be compelling, corroborating evidence," especially since "criminals cannot hide their gait."

Baker indicated that he left some "breadcrumbs" in recent reports.

Hanneman and Baker reported last week, for instance, that the 8.5-minute video about the Jan. 6 pipe bombs released by the FBI in October contained footage edited to exclude showing a U.S. Capitol Police SUV pull up directly across the street from where the suspect stood at 8:15 p.m. on January 5, 2021.

In addition to raising suspicion about the selective edit, the investigative duo claimed that the FBI also deliberately chose not to publicly acknowledge the theory that the pipe bombs were part of a poorly timed training exercise.

Baker told Beck on Wednesday that while the FBI and the Metropolitan Police Department are offering a $500,000 reward for evidence that leads to an arrest in the case, he didn't take the new evidence implicating the yet-to-be named suspect to the agencies "because we believe that they were actively engaged in the cover-up."

Baker indicated that there are national security-related briefings under way, and Beck said that the suspect's name will be released after the relevant agencies have "battened down the hatches."

Beck said, "This is one of the biggest stories — I think it is the biggest scandal of my lifetime, maybe in the last 100 years. It is monstrous."

House GOP seeks criminal charges against ex-CIA chief over alleged Russiagate lies



The House Judiciary Committee officially referred former CIA Director John Brennan to the Department of Justice for allegedly lying to Congress about his involvement in the Russia collusion hoax.

Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) referred Brennan to the DOJ on Tuesday for allegedly making "false statements" during his transcribed testimony before the Judiciary Committee in 2023. During his testimony, Brennan made "numerous willfully and intentionally false statements," including that the CIA was not "involved at all" with the Steele dossier, according to Jordan.

'It indicates a pattern of Brennan's willingness to lie.'

"Congress cannot perform its oversight function if witnesses who appear before its committees do not provide truthful testimony," a letter from Jordan to Attorney General Pam Bondi reads. "Making false statements before Congress is a crime that undermines the integrity of the Committee's constitutional duty to conduct oversight."

In the letter, Jordan outlined every falsehood he claims Brennan stated during his 2023 testimony, testimony that Jordan said directly contradicted the Intelligence Community Assessment.

In 2017, several intelligence agencies published a report alleging that Russia had meddled in America's elections to elect President Donald Trump to his first term in 2016. This report, which was later debunked, was based on the Steele dossier, which was funded by the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee through the law firm Perkins Coie and other opposition research firms like Fusion GPS.

After the Trump administration declassified documents showing that the report's claims were apparently fabricated by former President Barack Obama's administration, Brennan's testimony was called into question.

Brennan initially claimed in May 2023 that the "CIA was not involved at all with the [Steele] dossier," a statement that contradicted the findings "jointly made by the Directors of CIA and FBI," according to Jordan's letter. Jordan also claimed that Brennan "overruled senior CIA officers" who had objections about including the dossier material in the report.

"Brennan's assertion that the CIA was not 'involved at all' with the Steele dossier cannot be reconciled with the facts," the letter reads. "As the newly declassified documents show, a CIA officer drafted the annex containing a summary of the dossier; Brennan made the ultimate decision, along with then-FBI Director James Comey, to include information from the dossier in the ICA."

Brennan similarly testified that the CIA "very much opposed" including the Steele dossier in the report, despite declassified documents claiming he "refused to remove it" from the report regardless of its "many flaws."

Durin separate testimony in 2017, Brennan said the Steele dossier "was not in any way used as a basis for the Intelligence Community Assessment," despite contrary evidence found after the Trump administration declassified documents. Notably, this testimony was made beyond the five-year statute of limitations, but Jordan said that "it indicates a pattern of Brennan's willingness to lie to Congress about the Steele dossier."

Former national security adviser John Bolton indicted by federal grand jury



On Wednesday, a grand jury convened to consider charges against John Bolton, a national security adviser in President Trump's first term and a longtime Trump critic.

On Thursday afternoon, the grand jury came to a decision.

A Justice Department official previously told the New York Post that the case they had against him was 'airtight.'

The 76-year-old former Trump adviser was indicted by a grand jury on 18 counts related to mishandling classified information, eight counts of transmission of national defense information, and 10 counts of unlawful retention of NDI, according to a DOJ press release.

“There is one tier of justice for all Americans,” Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a statement, according to the press release. “Anyone who abuses a position of power and jeopardizes our national security will be held accountable. No one is above the law.”

According to a Wednesday New York Post report, the grand jury considered charges against Bolton over his alleged sharing of highly sensitive classified materials on a private email server. A Justice Department official previously told the New York Post that the case they had against him was "airtight."

Bolton stands accused of sending classified information on a private AOL email account as well as keeping "diary-like notes" during his time in the first administration.

Thursday's indictment signals a major milestone in a months-long investigation — with potentially dire consequences.

According to the heavily redacted search warrant affidavit, reviewed by AP upon its September release and used by the FBI to justify its August raid of Bolton's Maryland house, an unredacted section heading reads, "Hack of Bolton AOL Account by Foreign Entity."

More details on the nature of the hack or the "foreign entity" were unavailable due to redactions.

If convicted, Bolton could face up to 10 years in prison for each count, the press release said.

According to CNBC, Trump said in response to the news of Bolton's indictment: "You're telling me for the first time, but I think he's, you know, a bad person. I think he's a bad — yeah, he's a bad guy. It's too bad. But that's the way it goes, right? That's the way it goes."

'NO ONE is above the law': FBI raids former national security adviser John Bolton's home



Within minutes of FBI Director Kash Patel tweeting on Friday morning, "NO ONE is above the law... FBI agents on mission," federal agents raided the D.C.-area home of John Bolton, President Donald Trump's former national security adviser.

A Trump administration official told the New York Post that federal agents stormed Bolton's Bethesda, Maryland, house at 7 a.m. on Patel's orders.

The raid is in connection to a probe reportedly involving classified documents that was launched years ago but torpedoed by President Joe Biden's administration for "political reasons," according a top U.S. official.

The Department of Justice during Trump's first term opened a criminal investigation in 2020 into whether Bolton disclosed classified information in his book, "The Room Where It Happened," after first proving unable to stop the publication of the book with a lawsuit.

The case was referred to the DOJ by then-Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe.

Trump noted in June 2020, "Washed up Creepster John Bolton is a lowlife who should be in jail, money seized, for disseminating, for profit, highly Classified information. Remember what they did to the young submarine sailor, but did nothing to Crooked Hillary. I ended up pardoning him — It wasn’t fair!"

In his book and during various media appearances since its publication, Bolton has viciously attacked the president, suggesting, for instance, that Trump is "unfit to be president" and claiming, "Trump really cares only about retribution for himself, and it will consume much of a second term."

Shortly after the raid commenced, a tweet — which may have been pre-scheduled — appeared on Bolton's X account, stating, "Russia has not changed its goal: drag Ukraine into a new Russian Empire. Moscow has demanded that Ukraine cede territory it already holds and the remainder of Donetsk, which it has been unable to conquer. Zelensky will never do so. Meanwhile, meetings will continue because Trump wants a Nobel Peace Prize, but I don't see these talks making any progress."

This is a developing story.

Looking for Bitcoin’s Mr. Roboto

In late 2008 during the depths of the global financial crisis, someone going by the pseudonym of Satoshi Nakamoto registered a website domain and posted a nine-page white paper describing the technical workings of something called Bitcoin, a “peer-to-peer electronic cash system,” to an obscure moderated mailing list frequented by privacy-obsessed computer nerds. In January 2009, this shadowy Nakamoto figure released an alpha version of the open-source software for Bitcoin to the masses and then spent the next two years engaging in online discussions to answer questions and troubleshoot glitches with the new blockchain-based decentralized technology. In 2011, he (or she or they) abruptly went dark and disappeared into the ether, leaving the world with a self-perpetuating digital money-printing machine.

Trump admin ousts NSA director in agency shake-up: Report



President Donald Trump’s administration on Thursday fired the director of the National Security Agency, Gen. Timothy Haugh, according to a report from the Washington Post.

Haugh’s civilian deputy, Wendy Noble, was reportedly removed from her position and reassigned a job with the Department of Defense’s Office of the Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security.

'This is called VETTING.'

The Post also stated that “at least five” National Security Council officials were terminated on Thursday.

The White House has not yet confirmed the reported firings, and therefore, the reasoning for the alleged actions is unclear.

However, Trump stated that he had ousted “some” NSC staffers, the Associated Press reported.

“Always we’re letting go of people,” Trump stated Thursday. “People that we don’t like or people that we don’t think can do the job or people that may have loyalties to somebody else.”

According to the AP, at least three terminated employees were “senior NSC officials” and the others were “lower-ranking aides.”

Pro-Trump activist Laura Loomer appeared to take credit for the alleged shake-up in a post on X, claiming that Haugh and Noble were removed because they were “disloyal” to the president.

She criticized Haugh as a “Biden appointee,” who was “HAND PICKED” by now-retired U.S. Army Gen. Mark Milley.

Loomer stated that Haugh was “referred for firing” as well as “his Obama loving protege, Wendy Noble.”

“This is called VETTING,” she declared.

Loomer reportedly advocated for the firings during a recent meeting with Trump.

“Thank you President Trump for being receptive to the vetting materials provided to you and thank you for firing these Biden holdovers,” she stated.

Following her meeting with the president, Trump told reporters, “Laura Loomer is a very good patriot. She’s a very strong person.”

“She makes recommendations of things or people, and sometimes I listen to those recommendations,” he stated.

Trump stated that during their meeting, Loomer “recommended certain people for jobs.”

He stated that Loomer had nothing to do with the fired NSC staffers.

However, in a separate post on X, Loomer appeared also to claim credit for those terminations.

“You know how you know the NSC officials I reported to President Trump are disloyal people who have played a role in sabotaging Donald Trump?” she wrote. “Because the fired officials are being defended by... Jen Psaki & Andrew McCabe on MSNBC & CNN RIGHT NOW.”

The White House did not respond to requests for comment from the Washington Post or the New York Post. The NSA referred the New York Post to the DOD, which also did not respond.

Over 100 federal employees fired after vulgar transgender sex chat room is discovered on NSA servers



Earlier this week, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard announced that over 100 federal employees have been fired for facilitating a vulgar transgender sex chat room on NSA servers.

“So during business hours, there were employees who were just openly discussing male to female transgender surgeries — castration. They were talking about faux vaginas; they were talking about pee fetishes,” says Sara Gonzales of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered.”


The chat logs also revealed that these government employees were “talking bad about heterosexuals and discussing group sex.”

Gabbard told Fox News’ Jesse Watters that she “put out a directive that they all will be terminated and their security clearances will be revoked.”

“When you see what these people were saying — and thanks to Chris Rufo for putting it all out online — they were brazen in using an NSA platform intended for professional use to conduct this kind of really, really horrific behavior,” she said.

“And they were brazen in doing this because when was the last time anyone was really held accountable? Certainly not over the last four years, certainly not over the last 10, maybe 20 years,” Gabbard continued.

Sara agrees, adding, “This is what happens when you hire based off of DEI — you get a bunch of degenerates.”

“They're supposed to be guardians for America,” says head researcher and writer for Glenn Beck, Jason Buttrill. “That's what they're supposed to be doing, but instead they're talking about this crap.”

Jason can’t help but wonder what else is going on that we haven’t discovered yet. The corruption, especially when it comes to DEI, is so systemic in the intel community that it’s “going to take the four full years” to root it all out, but even that might not be enough time.

“I think it's so important that we not laugh off this DEI stuff. ... Don't look at it like, ‘Oh, it's good that the Trump administration is dealing with it.’ No, they need to go to war against this ideology because it's cultural Marxism,” he says.

NSA officials called Tulsi Gabbard 'Russian agent' and MAGA cult member in secret chat room



Multiple U.S. intelligence officials disparaged then-incoming Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard in a secret chat and labeled her as a Russian agent and cult member.

In an unclassified document sent to reporter Christopher Rufo, a chat log dated December 20, 2024, revealed internal sentiments about Gabbard, who at the time had already been tapped by President-elect Donald Trump to serve as the director of national intelligence.

The chat involved employees of the National Security Agency, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, and U.S. Space Command.

All of the government employees used preferred pronouns in their screen names as they gossiped and discussed whether Gabbard was a traitor.

"Gabbard is a Russian agent, [in my opinion]," a U.S. Space Command employee wrote.

A DNI employee replied with her own criticism, saying, "Well she is fervently anti-queer."

The same employee said Gabbard belonged to a cult, "2 if you count MAGA."

It is unclear what other alleged cult the employee was referring to.

'An intersex birth would be a great opportunity.'

Recently released documents and chat logs have shown a fascination among federal security agents around discussing obscure sexual fetishes and desires with their colleagues.

Male sex-change operations, penetration, and cross-dressing were all discussed in the chats, previously reported by Blaze News.

Other unclassified logs have shown NSA and CIA officials expressing a desire to have intersex children in order to push transgender ideology on their offspring.

"An intersex birth would be a great opportunity to raise a kid as [nonbinary] and let them choose later," an NSA official wrote.

"Or not choose at all!" a National Reconnaissance Office employee replied.

A CIA official then jumped in, "And none of those things mean that their gender wasnt [sic] a socially constructed identity."

An NSA agent later claimed "hermaphroditism" has "kind of" become an "offensive term for intersex people."

Additional logs contained disparaging remarks about political commentators, such as popular online personality Libs of TikTok, whom one U.S. Navy employee described as a "f***ing monster," adding that the employee is "embarrassed that she is a Jew."

Multiple government employees said political commentator Ben Shapiro should be expelled from Judaism, while one Navy official said Shapiro being Jewish is like having a relative who "spouts hate speech."

Another NSA official then bragged about excommunicating an uncle who is "homophobic."

Federal security agents had chat groups about sex changes, bizarre fetishes as part of DEI commitment: Report



The National Security Agency's stated aim is to "provide intelligence support to military operations through our signals intelligence activities," while also ensuring that American military communications and data remain "out of the hands of our adversaries."

It appears, however, that intelligence employees at the Pentagon agency had other priorities under the previous administration — namely engaging in yearslong discussions about their genitals, sex-change mutilations, and fetishes on a chat system intended for government work.

One active NSA employee and one former employee provided Christopher Rufo and Hannah Grossman of the Manhattan Institute's City Journal with logs of obscene chats that took place within channels on the NSA's Intelink messaging program.

Chat logs dating back two years reportedly show a fascination among employees with male sex-change mutilations, in which patients' penises are cut off and the remains are manipulated into mock vaginas.

"Mine is everything," one NSA employee stated. "I've found that i like being penetrated (never liked it before GRS), but all the rest is just as important as well."

Another intelligence official tasked with making the country safer reportedly bragged that his sex-change mutilation enabled him to "wear leggings or bikinis without having to wear a gaff under it."

Other NSA employees apparently discussed their kinks and the costly procedures they underwent in order to masquerade as members of the opposite sex.

'At least we know what they did last week.'

According to the NSA sources, the obscene chats — which included explicit sexual discussions about orgies and urination fetishes — were the product of activists' transformation of non-straight "employee resource groups" into opportunities to "turn their kinks and pathologies into official work duties."These efforts were legitimized as part of the agency's commitment to DEI.

Former NSA Director Paul Nakasone told Congress in October 2021 that the agency had 11 employee resource groups, which he engaged "directly to hear their concerns and ideas on making NSA a more inclusive workplace."

The source currently employed at the NSA told City Journal that the non-straight resource groups "spent all day" recruiting fellow travelers and holding meetings with titles such as "Ally Awareness," "Pride," and "Transgender Community Inclusion" and did so with the blessing of the NSA leadership, which maintained that DEI was "not only mission-critical, but mission-imperative."

NSA appeared to go all in on DEI.

In 2023, House Republicans obtained a leaked glossary of DEI terms that had apparently been circulated within the NSA, which hinted at the agency's ideological capture under the previous administration.

The glossary was saturated with leftist presumptions and biases. For instance, the glossary characterized capitalism as an "unequal market system of production and consumption"; claimed "structural racism" is a "feature of the social, economic, and political systems in which we all exist"; and suggested that the popular recognition that normalcy means embracing one's biological sex "feeds into a system of oppression that privileges cisgender individuals and denies equality to transgender people."

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard said of City Journal's findings, "This behavior is unacceptable and those involved WILL be held accountable."

"These disgusting chat groups were immediately shut down when POTUS issued his EO ending the DEI insanity the Biden Admin was obsessed with," continued Gabbard. "Our IC must be focused on our core mission: ensuring the safety, security, and freedom of the American people."

Elon Musk noted, "Well ... at least we know what they did last week."

BlazeTV host Auron MacIntyre tweeted, "The US security state was operating a troon chat room so employees could hook up and recruit."

Chat Logs Show Queer NSA Employees Discussing Perverted Acts At Work

The NSA said it will take action against employees who abused government systems to talk about their fetishes and mutilation surgeries.
