October, 2025, Part 3, Political Class Insanity: FBI Corruption, January 6 Shenanigans, Des Moines Incompetence, and More

 There is a lot going on in the world: Obama and Russiagate findings, Middle East powder keg, the Russian/Ukrainian war, Federal government shutdown, etc. But through all this, the American political class continues to constantly deliver its own special brand of insanity, stupidity, wasteful taxpayer spending, and ineffective government programs.


1)We recently  discussed the insanity out in Des Moines where the Board of Education hired an illegal immigrant with a criminal record with likely fake educational credentials to be in charge of Des Moines schools. The illegal  immigrant, Ian Roberts, was finally arrested by immigration officials. You cannot make this stuff up.


Update:


  • The school  district is suing the JG Consulting company that was supposed to have  done a background search when  Roberts was submitted as a candidate for the position.

  • Given what we know now, it does not appear that JG Consulting is very good at its job.

  • The district is suing the company based on negligence and breach of contract.


Between the  $300,000+ salary, the search cost, and the legal and PR costs as a result of the screw up, the district has paid out a lot of taxpayer money for their incompetence.


2)As most folks know, the Washington DC crime situation had gotten so bad that Trump sent in Federal law enforcement and National Guard troops to bring the situation under control. As with anything Trump does, the Democrats in Washington went ballistic with rage against anything Trump does.


But the Democratic mayor eventually acknowledged that Trump’s actions did significantly reduce the violence and  crime in  the District. And we now know that the crime situation was worse than thought, making Trump’s  move even  more important:


  • The House Oversight Committee is investigating accusations that the DC police department was intentionally suppressing crime data to make crime look  better than it actually was.

  • Whistleblowers  have  testified that the police department and courtrooms have  allowed criminals to “wiggle out of…more serious charges.”

  • The efforts were designed to suppress violent crime instances and  were "pervasive from the top all the way down” the DC criminal  justice system.

  • The committee found  over 150 instances where supervisors overrode the classification of violent crimes by onsite police officers to downgrade the severity of criminal acts.

  • According to a DC  police officer:  “What happens all the time is, from the get-go, crimes are under classified,” the officer said, relating a crime scene where a person he arrested for firing a gun at a group of people, who “miraculously” didn’t shoot anybody, was charged with endangerment with a firearm, a lesser violent crime classification, instead of assault with a dangerous weapon.

  • In other  cases, robbery, a violent crime, was often re-classified as theft, a less violent crime.


Another day, another example of corruption that now seems to permeate every aspect of any  government entity.


3)As  time goes by,  the liberals and  Democrats that claim Trump instigated the storming of  the Capitol building on January 6th starts to fall  apart, as we have  discussed before:


  • Over  a hundred documents and videos were destroyed by Democrats who served on the  committee investigating January 6th just prior  to Republicans taking control of the House of Representatives,  raising the  issue of what was on those videos and documents that would not support the Democrats claim that Trump was responsible.

  • We now know that a  Republican Trump hater and someone serving on the committee, Liz Cheney reached out to a witness,  Cassidy Hutchinson, got her to change her testimony before the committee to be  more negative of Trump and also provided her with free legal counsel, and did so  without contacting  Cassidy Hutchinson’s lawyer before hand, a  severe violation of legal protocol and possibly an  illegal act of witness tampering.

  •  We know that Black Lives Matter and Antifa people were rampaging through the building, certainly not supporters of Trump in any way.


And in recent testimony before Congress, FBI Director, Kash Patel, revealed more realities and  documents that show that maybe,  just maybe, the January 6th incident was a Democratic and Nancy Pelosi false flag event:


  • Pelosi rejected Trump’s multiple suggestions that the National Guard be deployed at the Capitol building before January 6th.

  • Patel  also pointed to public letters on  how DC Mayor, Muriel Bowser, had coordinated with Pelosi to  not deploy National Guard troops.

  • It just so happens  that Pelosi was actually filming a movie that day in  the Capitol  building  which was eventually sold to HBO.

  • According to Patel, Pelosi’s daughter, Alexandra Pelosi, just so happened to be filming in the  building that day, providing video substance that eventually went into the HBO documentary.

  • Patel confirmed that a whopping 274 undercover FBI agents were in the Capitol building that day, making one wonder whether or not the agents were provoking the crowd.

  • Patel accused former FBI Director Christopher Wray of  lying to  Congress when he testified about how the FBI  may have  been involved in the  situation.


What a mess: suspicious activities by Pelosi and a member  of her family,  almost 300 FBI agents deployed in the  crowd, witness tampering, documents  and  videos destroyed, refusal to take the common sense approach of having too much security around the building vs. too little, left wing radical  groups roaming the halls that day, the corruption and  lying is overwhelming.


Final note based on absolutely no data or proof, just logical speculation: if the FBI had 274 undercover agents  in the  crowd, how many undercover ATF agents were in the crowd?  How many undercover  Department of Homeland security agents were in the crowd? How  many under cover DC police officers were in the  crowd? We may  never know for sure but  I think most logical thinking people know the answer.

4)Speaking  of  the FBI and corruption, consider this recent news report:


  • A recently uncovered 2017 FBI memo suggests that Bill Clinton  was receiving shady payments  that were routed through a consulting firm.

  • This little rumor came up in a Senate investigation when a FBI document was discovered.

  • The document discussed interviews with a Steven Sullivan, who was the CFO at a consulting firm called Teneo which  is located in NYC.

  • The FBI agent  who created the document claims that Teneo  seems to have  been  a conduit for payments to  Clinton via Doug Band, a former aide to Clinton.

  • Oh, by the way,  Band  owns Teneo.

  • Band continued to be involved with Clinton activities after Clinton  left  office: he arranged Clinton’s paid speaking engagements and consulting arrangements while helping establish the Clinton Foundation and Clinton Global Initiative. 

  • Republican Senators are  calling for an  investigation regarding the process and possibility that what the whistleblowers are saying is true, that Clinton allegedly was receiving illegal  payments long after he  left office.

  • The Senate concern is that the FBi looked the other way and  refused to further investigate the 2017 letter contents, which  if true, is another corruption  story of the FBI.


Just a corruption  filled day: alleged Clinton payments/kickbacks, FBI looking the other way, FBI agents in the January 6th crowd, FBI lying to Congress, corrupting city crime statistics and reality, and either corruption or just plain incompetence out in  Des  Moines.

July, 2025, Part 11, Political Class Insanity: California Loses Another Business, Biden Lost Thousands of Kids, More COVID Corruption, and Why A Communist Should Not Rule NYC

 There is a lot going on in the world: Obama and Russiagate findings, Middle East powder keg, the Russian/Ukrainian war, etc. But through all this, the American political class continues to  constantly deliver its own special brand of insanity, stupidity, wasteful taxpayer spending, and ineffective government programs:


1)We have frequently talked about our theory on how a major city or an entire state government is likely to go bankrupt in the not too distant future: high taxation rates, high government regulation rates, high crime rates, and other nasty situations are driving residents and businesses out of these cities and states in search of better quality of life situations. They have finally decided that the city and state politicians in their lives have  neither the ability, the smarts, or desire to fix what they have  broken.


A strong contender to go bankrupt has always been and is still the state government of California. High crime rates, high homelessness rates, some of the highest taxes in the country, very high energy costs, the list seems endless. As a result, California has been losing both residents and businesses over the past few years including Tesla, State Farm,Toyota, and hundreds of other businesses of all sizes.


And  apparently another born and bred California business is also getting ready to exit the state, taking a lot of tax dollars with it:


  • The president and heiress of the very popular In-N-Out burger fast food chain is moving the company headquarters out of California and taking it to business friendly Tennessee.

  • She summed up a few of the reasons for leaving the state quite nicely: "There’s a lot of great things about California, but raising a family is not easy here. Doing business is not easy here now."

  • Her family and business roots run deep with her but she is still packing up and leaving.

  • She is moving the headquarters operation out of California to a new 100,000 square foot facility in Franklin, Tennessee.

  • In an interview she cited a specific case with one of her stores that also probably contributed to her decision to get out: "There was actually — gunshots went through the store, there was a stabbing, there was a lot. For the safety of our associates, we just felt like, this is not OK."

  • But violent crime was just one of several factors: "There were so many pressures and just hoops we were having to jump through. You’ve got to do this, you have to wear a mask, you gotta put this plastic thing up between us and our customers and it was really terrible."


You cannot keep raising taxes, piling on more and  more regulations, not getting crime under control and still  expect people and businesses to sit there and take  it. Eventually, the desire for a better quality of life in many ways causes people to up and leave, taking their tax dollars with them, and keeping California in contention to be the first state to go bankrupt as a result of inept politicians.


2)It seems that the COVID  government policies implemented in the Biden administration days continue to haunt American tax pacers: fraud, ineptness, bad accounting, you name it. And the COVID fraud continues up in Minnesota:


  • Federal authorities recently indicted 70 people for a COVID fraud scheme as it related to children’s nutrition programs during the pandemic.

  • FBI Director, Kash Patel, had some pretty strong words of disgust with the fraud, calling it “as shameless as it gets. Stealing over $250 million from hungry kids during a pandemic to fund mansions and luxury cars… I’m proud of the FBI and our partners for dismantling this web of corruption.”

  • The U.S. Department of Agriculture allowed  non-school based food distributors to participate in the feeding of kids during the pandemic but the oversight of the dollars being spent was quite lax.

  • Those induced allegedly submitted false attendance records,  false  invoices, and fake meal claims for children that were never fed.

  • At the peak  of COVID, over 300 food distribution sites were thought to  be  operating around the state but in reality many of the food sites did not exist, they were  fictitious and used to launder taxpayer  money.

  • More than  half of those indicted, 38, have  already pleaded guilty and others are awaiting  trial.


As always, it is great that this fraud was identified and those guilty of denying food to kids are hopefully all  going to prison. The unsettling aspect of this case, as always, these guys got caught stealing taxpayer wealth. How many other criminal  schemes are still  unpunished?


3) The Biden administration, as with many other presidencies, launched many programs that fell flat on their face from an implementation and benefits perspective. Biden wanted the Post Office to buy thousands of electric powered  Post Office vehicles but at last count, only dozens had been ordered and put in service despite spending billions of dollars. Biden wanted to get fast Internet service to rural America but despite spending  billions  of  dollars, no one has seen that service.


Which brings us the latest Biden program failure:


  • Previously we had reported how the Biden administration had lost track of possibly over 300,000 illegal  immigrant children.

  • This incompetence has probably caused many of these kids to fall  into the hands of sex traffickers, pedophiles, workplace traffickers, and other criminal activities.

  •  In recent  Congressional  testimony, it was uncovered that while Biden had set up a hotline to help illegal  immigrant  kids report abuse or seek help for themselves, for 18 months, from August 2023 to when Biden left office, that hotline had been staffed with exactly one person.

  • The testimony claimed that 65,000 calls to  the help hotline went unanswered.  

  • According to testimony, these calls included a boy who called and left the message that “grown men were coming into his room at night, and they were touching him. Nothing happened with that call.”


So  disgusting on how the entire Biden administration neglected the needs, safety, and lives of untold thousands of kids, just disgusting.


4) As we have discussed a number of times previously, Zohran Mamdani is the leading candidate to become the next mayor of New  York City. He is, in reality, a Communist, who intends to execute the following expensive, incoherent, and/or freedom destroying practices:


  • Provide free transportation for everyone in the city.

  • Provide free health care for everyone in the city.

  • Provide free daycare for everyone in the city.

  • Destroy the Second Amendment and violate the Constitution by prohibiting the ownership of guns in the city.

  • Open city owned and operated grocery stores, driving out all other grocers and retail food suppliers resulting in vast food desserts in the city.

  • Tax the wealthy even  more than now, driving wealth and tax  dollars out of the  city.

  • Impose rent control/freezes on rental units, causing landlords to cut back  on  maintenance requirements and reducing the quality of  life for those in  rental units.

  • He is against Jews and Israel.


Partha Chakraborty recently wrote an article on the idiocy of his proposals that much more elegantly outlined why they are so stupid and unworkable. Some of her quotes: 

  • “Small grocery stores in the city are primarily run by immigrants, a stepping stone in their American dream. They do have to pay rent and property taxes [unlike Mamdani’s city grocery stores], and muddle through city bureaucracy making them vulnerable to government overreach.”

  • “Whenever used in the U.S., state-run grocery stores were a cesspool of mismanagement.”

  • “The proposal to freeze rent is as thoughtless as it gets. It's said that rent control is the most effective way to destroy a city, except for bombing it to smithereens. The housing stock of New York City — especially at the lower end — needs serious investment. Most are managed by mom-and-pop owners, who have labored under onerous regulations making any capital improvement a burden. Many are still reeling from arbitrary rules from the days of the COVID-19 pandemic. Rent-freeze in a market already at a breaking point will drive existing stock into further decay and cease any fresh supply.”


As I said, the writing of Partha Chakraborty on  the issues is much more elegant than my take on the insanity. And she covers other topics as well, e.g. the stupidity of free public transportation, in  the following link:


https://www.newsmax.com/parthachakraborty/grocery-halalflation-rent-control/2025/07/23/id/1219816/?ns_mail_uid=8e0ec2de-3882-4d0c-9c17-d18dc7d617cb&ns_mail_job=DM827406_07252025&s=acs&dkt_nbr=010402r73kcg

Enough insanity for today: California loses another major business and its tax dollars, more COVID corruption, Biden's lost kids, and  why a Communist should not run NYC.
