Powerful: Brother of Captain of Hijacked 9/11 Plane Cuts New Ad Asking Michigan Voters Not to Vote for Radical Senate Candidate Abdul El-Sayed

On Sept. 11, 2001, Capt. John Ogonowski was the pilot of the first plane hijacked by Islamic terrorists that struck the World Trade Center in New York City.

His brother Jim has turned to Michigan voters, pleading with them not to elect radical Democrat Abdul El-Sayed as U.S. senator in November.

Reporter Laura Loomer shared the powerful ad.

Jim Ogonowski shares, “My brother John was the captain of American Airlines Flight 11, the first plane to hit the towers on September 11th.”

“I lost my best friend that day, and I watched John’s 3 young girls lose their father.”

“Abdul El-Sayed campaigned with a man who said America deserved 9/11.”

“America deserved 9/11, dude.

“That is totally disqualifying.”

“I am asking Michigan voters to protect our nation.”

“Reject Abdul El-Sayed for U.S. Senate.”

Watch:

El-Sayed has repeatedly been asked to disavow Communist influencer Hasan Piker’s comments, saying, “America deserved 9/11.”

He prevaricated and defended the comment, suggesting it was taken “out of context,” and he credited “gocha politics” and “cancel culture” for the controversy.

“Of course. Of course, it was a dumb statement, and of course, I think Hassan himself would say that was a dumb statement. He disavowed it. So yes, America didn’t deserve 9/11, but you know, to sit here and play gotcha politics with dumb things somebody said out of context that they disavowed themselves to say, ‘Oh well, what does that mean about what you think?’” he said.

He then laughably claimed the left agreed that cancel culture was a “bad idea back in 2020,” and accused Republicans of embracing the so-called relic of left-wing politics as if cancel culture isn’t alive and well today in the Democratic Party.

El-Sayed’s opponent, Michigan GOP Senatorial Candidate Mike Rogers, spoke at the first-ever Republican National Committee (RNC) midterm convention, where he exposed El Sayed for fundraising from ISLAMIC TERROR organizations.

BYE: Viral Haitian Gang Member Who Said “I’m Not Going Back to Haiti” During Boston ICE Arrest Finally Deported to Haiti After 19 Months

Posted on by patriotsheart

The Haitian illegal alien gang member who became a national spectacle last year, cursing President Donald Trump into a Fox News camera while praising Joe Biden and Barack Obama, is no longer on American soil.

The Department of Homeland Security confirmed to Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin that Wisteguens Jean Quely Charles, also identified in the new federal briefing as Wisteguens Jean Quely Chargles, was removed to Haiti on Thursday, roughly 19 months after ICE grabbed him in East Boston.

He told the cameras he was never going back. He went back anyway.

On January 22, 2025, days after President Trump returned to the White House, ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Boston took Charles into custody during a targeted operation in the sanctuary city of Boston. A Fox News crew embedded with the agents captured the moment.

As officers loaded him up, the 25-year-old Haitian national shouted that he was “not going back to Haiti,” then unloaded on the new president: “F**k Trump! You feel me? Yo, Biden forever, bro! Thank Obama for everything he did for me, bro!”

TGP also reported on then-Border Czar Tom Homan’s response after Charles declared that he would not be deported. Homan replied, “Well, he’s wrong, he’s going back to Haiti,” as reported in a follow-up article.

Well, guess what, he’s back in Haiti.

According to Bill Melugin:

DHS confirms to Fox News that Wisteguens Jean Quely Chargles was finally deported back to his home country on Thursday, 19 months after his arrest. I’m told he was combative on the plane, which originated in Louisiana, and he made profane, threatening remarks about President Trump and his family while on board.

Per DHS, he had 17+ criminal convictions in just a two-year span in the state of Massachusetts. He was initially admitted to the US in 2013 during the Obama administration and was granted TPS. His TPS was later revoked in 2022. We witnessed him being arrested by ICE in the sanctuary city of Boston on 1/22/2025, just days into the Trump 2.0 administration.

As for why it took so long? I’m told by federal sources that he exhausted every single potential legal option to try to remain in the country and has had a final deportation order since November of last year.

WHITE HOUSE statement to FOX:

“This gang member and criminal illegal alien loved Obama, Biden, and open-border Democrats who let him enter our country with TPS and allowed him to terrorize American citizens. Thanks to the Trump administration, he is now off our streets and back in Haiti.“

DHS statement to FOX:

“This illegal alien gang member from Haiti had quite the rap sheet, with convictions for assault and battery on a public employee, resisting arrest, and drug trafficking, among other heinous crimes,” said DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin. “He went viral for praising Biden as he was getting arrested, because he knew that the Biden Administration’s open borders turned America into a paradise for criminals like him. The Trump Administration has finally done what both the Obama and Biden Administrations failed to do and deported this criminal back where he belongs.“

Kash Patel Humiliates Adam Schiff During Annual FBI Oversight Hearing (VIDEO)

Posted on by patriotsheart

FBI Director Kash Patel on Tuesday went off on Democrat Senator Adam Schiff (CA) during an FBI Oversight hearing.

Schiff tried to trap Kash Patel: “You said the mainstream media was ‘the most powerful enemy that the United States has ever seen’ – do you stand by that?” Schiff asked Kash Patel.

Patel responded, “Your colleagues put that on full display today by hacking around the same lies and personal, baseless attacks, and that’s what makes the majority of the mainstream media…”

“That’s a great picture. You should post it,” Patel said, trolling Adam Schiff.

“So is it your view then that the media is a greater threat than Iran?” Adam Schiff asked Kash Patel.

Patel said the lying media is the most harmful institution in the US.”

Adam Schiff asked Kash Patel if he was referring to the New York Times.

Kash Patel humiliated Adam Schiff.

“Did you ever find that Russia Collusion? Is it in that envelope that you held up? You got that?” Kash Patel asked Schiff.

“Or what about those illegal FISA warrants when you were on the House Select Committee?” Kash Patel asked.

Schiff refused to say whether he has found any evidence of Trump-Russia collusion.

WATCH:

This isn’t the first time Kash Patel and Adam Schiff clashed during the annual FBI Senate Judiciary Oversight hearing.

Last September Kash Patel went off on Schiff and called him the biggest fraud to ever sit in the US Senate.

“You are the biggest fraud to ever sit in the United States Senate. You are a disgrace to this institution and an utter coward!” Kash Patel said.

“I’m not surprised that you continue to lie from your perch and put on a show so you can go raise money for your charade. You are a political buffoon at best,” Patel said.

Ukrainian Prosecutor General Kravchenko Is Raided by Anti-Corruption Cops, a Safe Filled With Dollars and Euros Is Found in His Office, but He Flees the Country Before Arrest

Posted on by patriotsheart

Ruslan Kravchenko – Wiki Commons

Kravchenko got fired by Zelensky and dismissed by Parliament.

Another day, another top Ukrainian official is in deep trouble with the country’s corruption agencies.

This time, it’s the Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko, accused of being part of a criminal organization that offered protection to scam call center gangs.

NABU and SAPO raided his office and found a safe filled with dollars and euros, allegedly the fruit of his criminal activity.

Kravchenko has reportedly fled Ukraine via Poland, and it’s now said to be in France.

Today, Ukraine’s parliament dismissed Kravchenko, a day after he announced ‘charges’ against the head of the country’s anti-corruption bureau, the very agency that raided him.

Talk about a conflict of interest! The charges have been reportedly ‘canceled’.

Kyiv Independent reported:

“The dismissal, which passed without a single vote against it, comes amid a confrontation between Ukraine’s anti-corruption agencies and the Prosecutor General’s Office, which is facing a National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) investigation into an alleged criminal group that protected scam call centers and helped launder millions of hryvnias.

NABU and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office (SAPO) said Kravchenko’s announcement about the charges against NABU chief Semen Kryvonos was part of a broader effort to undermine the independence of the anti-corruption agencies.

Late on Sept. 14, the Prosecutor General’s Office posted a statement that seemed to signal division between the agency and its outgoing boss. The statement claimed the reported charges were ‘not true’ but also ‘canceled’ — by whose authority, it remains unclear.”

Kravchenko, who urged lawmakers not to vote under ‘pressure’, resigned on September 7, then was fired by Zelensky and dismissed by Parliament.

“The NABU investigation has raised questions about Kravchenko’s alleged ties to a group that provided protection to scam call centers. In recordings obtained by the bureau, investigators refer to a ‘boss’ who allegedly protected the group. The person’s patronymic, Andriiovych, and former position as head of the State Tax Service match Kravchenko’s details.”

Ukrainian leader engaged in conversation while adjusting an earpiece, with a national flag in the background.
Endless corruption scandals plague Zelensky’s rule

Kravchenko allegedly crossed the checkpoint on the Ukrainian-Polish border at 2 a.m. Kiev time on the morning of Sept. 14, one hour after his wife reportedly crossed at the same location.

Kyiv Post reported:

“Kyiv Post sources in the Prosecutor General’s Office say that Kravchenko’s disappearance and his statement had come as a surprise to everyone there. “We only found out ourselves while we were driving to work,” one of the employees told us.

[…] A theory, held by anti-corruption activists, is that the authorities – and President Volodymyr Zelensky – deliberately allowed Kravchenko to flee, after first giving him the opportunity to announce suspicion against the leadership of the anti-corruption agencies.

[…] Kravchenko himself said that he had supposedly traveled to Paris to attend a session of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE). The Prosecutor General’s Office published a corresponding document. However, the event’s program was quickly found, and Kravchenko was not listed among the participants.”

12 Foreign-Born Operators From Syria, Somalia, Afghanistan, Iraq and Sudan Charged in $10 Million San Diego ‘Ghost Daycare’ Scam — Kids Only Showed Up When the Inspector Did

Posted on by patriotsheart

Locations of Executed Search Warrants in Daycare Fraud Investigation (Credit: DOJ)

American taxpayers just got another look at how the childcare subsidy machine actually works in Gavin Newsom’s California.

The Department of Justice announced Tuesday that 12 naturalized citizens and lawful permanent residents, originally from Syria, Somalia, Sudan, Afghanistan, and Iraq, have been charged in a more than $10 million home-daycare fraud scheme in San Diego.

Prosecutors say the defendants obtained California licenses to run home childcare, signed up with Child Development Associates and the YMCA to collect federal and county subsidies meant for low-income working families, then knowingly submitted false attendance records claiming they were watching children on days and at times when they were not.

They signed those forms under penalty of perjury. The money still showed up as direct deposits.

More than 250 federal, state, and local officers arrested all 12 defendants in a coordinated Thursday-morning raid and executed search warrants at the San Diego-area homes they claimed were daycare facilities.

U.S. Attorney Adam Gordon put it bluntly: “Today is a bad day for home daycare fraud. These fraudsters may have criminally gamed the system before. But today, the game is over.”

IRS Criminal Investigation Chief Jarod Koopman said investigators “uncovered patterns of deceit that revealed twelve ghost daycare operations billing for children who were never present,” and that proceeds went to luxury homes, overseas wire transfers, and large cash withdrawals.

According to federal complaints, surveillance footage showed that Abdulrahman Ayman Alawad claimed to care for 23 children in March 2026 and 25 children in April. However, cameras reportedly captured children entering or leaving his facility on only one of 57 days—coincidentally, the same day a state inspector arrived for an unannounced inspection.

Another defendant, Turkiya Mamdouh Alawad, allegedly collected $14,970 in childcare payments for January 2024 despite border records showing she was outside the United States during that entire month.

The DOJ says each defendant received between $538,000 and $1.2 million over periods ranging from months to years. Several allegedly collected more than $1 million, while Abdulrahman Alawad received more than $300,000 in payments in 2025 alone.

The defendants were identified as:

  • Fosiya Mohamoud — Somalia
  • Abdulrahman Alawad — Syria
  • Zetun Abdi — Somalia
  • Ikramullah Mohmmand — Afghanistan
  • Khetam Haouash — Syria
  • Khatera Hashimi — Afghanistan
  • Mariam Khamis — Sudan
  • Mohamad Alawad — Syria
  • Mazin Alawad — Syria
  • Turkiya Alawad — Syria
  • Zaryab Daudzai — Afghanistan
  • Cezar Yaqoob — Iraq

All 12 face wire fraud charges carrying up to 20 years in prison and a $500,000 fine. Some also face money-laundering counts.

San Diego Has Seen This Movie Before

This is not the first time San Diego’s subsidized childcare pipeline has been looted by operators tied to the same immigrant networks.

In 2023, federal prosecutors charged four San Diego residents connected to the UMI Learning Center in a $3.7 million childcare-benefits scheme built on false work-and-school verifications and kickbacks.

The ringleader, Mohamed Muriidi Mohamed, later drew 27 months in federal prison and a $3.7 million restitution order.

The Gateway Pundit has also reported ICE’s arrest of an illegal alien, a convicted child sex offender and gang member, found living inside an active San Diego daycare. That is the public-safety overlay Democrats pretend does not exist when the subject is “childcare providers.”

And earlier this year, independent journalist Nick Shirley took cameras to California hospices and San Diego daycares and said he documented more than $170 million in suspected fraud, empty buildings, luxury living, and operators who screamed and called police when asked a simple question: where are the children? The Gateway Pundit covered that video here and here.

California Democrats answered Shirley’s reporting the way they always do. They did not clean the books. They advanced the so-called “Stop Nick Shirley Act” to treat investigative journalism aimed at immigrant-run service centers as “harassment.” The Gateway Pundit reported that power grab here and here.

Today’s indictment is the federal government’s reply to the activists who spent months calling empty-facility footage “racism.”

One Lone Juror Wouldn’t Let Lindsay Clancy Walk After She Strangled Her Three Kids to Death, Now His Family Can’t Leave the House

Posted on by patriotsheart

Lindsay Clancy

The family of the lone holdout juror in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial says their lives have been turned upside down since the case ended in a mistrial.

The family says they didn’t even know he was serving on the high-profile jury, but now they are being hounded so badly they cannot leave the house.

The juror’s brother told the New York Post that strangers have been leaving notes at his mother’s house and that reporters and people obsessed with the case will not leave them alone.

“My family cannot leave the house,” he said. “They are leaving notes at my mother’s house. They won’t leave us alone, and we don’t know anything.”

“People have been calling me like crazy. It’s crazy.”

The family is devoutly Catholic Haitian immigrants, but the brother said that religion had nothing to do with the decision.

“I don’t think religion had anything to do with it,” he said. “He looked at the case, and he made the call.”

The brother added, “His choice was good for some people, but not good for other people.”

WATCH:

Lindsay Clancy, a 36-year-old former nurse from Duxbury, Massachusetts, admitted she strangled her children Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and 8-month-old Callan with exercise bands in the basement of the family home on January 24, 2023, after sending her husband Patrick out for takeout.

Two of the children were dead when he returned.

The baby died three days later.

Clancy jumped from a window and was left paralyzed from the waist down.

Prosecutors charged her with three counts of first-degree murder, but the defense, and a large movement of feminists, argued she was dealing with postpartum psychosis and was not criminally responsible.

After more than 38 hours of deliberations over seven days, the jury deadlocked 11-1.

Eleven jurors, nine women and two men, wanted to find her not guilty by reason of lack of criminal responsibility.

One man would not go along.

Judge William Sullivan declared a mistrial on September 4.

Clancy’s lawyer, Kevin Reddington, asked the judge to remove the holdout, claiming he was not following the law on reasonable doubt. The judge refused.

Several of the other jurors went public almost immediately. Foreperson Roni Carlson said the holdout admitted he had reasonable doubt, then refused to sign a not-guilty-by-reason-of-insanity verdict.

Juror Paula Devlin called him “very arrogant” and said he would not listen.

Soon, the media had figured out his identity and went on what appeared to be a campaign to make sure that nobody dares to try to hold her accountable if there is another trial.

NBC10 Boston published a report last week about dismissed domestic violence allegations against the juror from 2021, an active restraining order obtained by a teenage nephew, and an eviction case.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis called the report a smear and offered him asylum.

“A man objected to allowing a woman to kill her three young kids and get away with it, so NBC is trying to smear that juror, whose identity should be protected,” DeSantis wrote. “Another low for legacy media. If the juror is being harassed, Florida will provide asylum — I’m sure he’d be welcomed and appreciated.”

A GiveSendGo campaign titled “Stand With the Juror,” organized by Tom Hennessey, has raised substantial money for the man.

As of Tuesday, the page showed more than $191,000 raised toward a $250,000 goal for security, lawyers, and lost work.

The campaign page states that the juror “looked at what she did, not the brand of Zoloft,” and that the defense tried to have him thrown off the panel.

“Now she can be tried again for killing her children instead of getting a standing ovation for her symptoms,” it says.

Judge Sullivan has now sealed the jurors’ identities indefinitely, citing a risk of immediate and irreparable injury and noting that at least one juror asked for continued privacy.

Clancy is due back in Plymouth Superior Court on September 29, when the defense is expected to press a motion to dismiss.

Plymouth County District Attorney Timothy Cruz has not announced whether he will retry Clancy on first-degree murder.

Carnegie Mellon University Associate Professor Under Fire for Distrubing Anti-White Social Media Posts

Posted on by patriotsheart

Uju Anya/Image: Via video screenshot.

Uju Anya, an associate professor of second language acquisition at Carnegie Mellon University, is under fire for social media posts attacking White people, and this isn’t the first time.

The Gateway Pundit reported that Anya took to social media to also suggest that the attempted assassination of President Trump was a ” staged ” shooting and the shooter was part of a “stupid show.”

Anya also attacked Charlie Kirk following his murder.

According to Newsweek:

One of the latest flashpoints involves Uju Anya, an associate professor at Carnegie Mellon University, who referred to Kirk as a “s***bag” and said she hoped he would “rot in p***” while participating in online “Kirkiversary” posts marking the anniversary of the conservative commentator’s death.

As criticism mounted, users also resurfaced a number of Anya’s older posts, including a 2021 exchange in which she allegedly told another user, “Die first, white man,” as well as earlier comments celebrating the death of conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh.

The recent controversy she has found herself in is a video in which she declares, “These f*cking racist white supremacist pedophile assh*les will not win.”

Watch:

Anya did not seem concerned that anything would happen to her after her ugly tirades.  She shared on X, “Actually, CMU already knows I’m racist and think White people should die. They knew this before hiring me.”

The University may not be as amenable to her hateful rhetoric as she thinks.  They shared, “Dr. Uju Anya is currently on voluntary professional leave from the university and is not teaching courses on our campus this academic year. We are deeply concerned by recent hostile and threatening social media posts by Dr. Anya and are reviewing this matter closely.”

Libs of TikTok then shared a more comprehensive statement from the University:

Dear Members of the CMU Community: We are writing to share details of a situation that goes to the heart of faculty responsibility, academic standards and the trust that is foundational to our institutional mission. On Friday, Sept. 11, we became aware of hostile and threatening social media posts by Dr. Uju Anya, a faculty member in the department of Languages, Cultures & Applied Linguistics (LCAL) in our Dietrich College of Humanities and Social Sciences. Dr. Anya is on voluntary professional leave through summer 2027 and is not teaching classes for CMU this academic year.

In her social media posts, Dr. Anya repeatedly and prominently invoked her connection to Carnegie Mellon and implied support from university colleagues, blurring the line between personal expression and academic authority. In her posts, she used expletives, racial slurs and derogatory language that demeaned, dehumanized and intimidated.

Carnegie Mellon University is a place where rigorous inquiry, freedom of expression and mutual respect must coexist. We take that responsibility seriously and we strongly reject language that is hateful and disparages or calls for the harm of others. Such rhetoric is inconsistent with the dignity, respect and responsibility that we expect from one another. Dr. Anya’s choice of language violates our shared community standards and distracts from the seriousness and significance of CMU’s scholarship in the humanities and social sciences.

This weekend, we met with Dietrich College leadership, including Dean Cassidy Sugimoto, and LCAL faculty as well as Faculty Senate leadership. In these discussions, Interim Department Head Adam van Compernolle heard from colleagues, who described “a sense of fear for our personal safety on and off campus.” These colleagues also spoke of being doxxed and receiving an influx of threatening messages that leave….

This weekend, we met with Dietrich College leadership, including Dean Cassidy Sugimoto, and LCAL faculty as well as Faculty Senate leadership. In these discussions, Interim Department Head Adam van Compernolle heard from colleagues, who described “a sense of fear for our personal safety on and off campus.” These colleagues also spoke of being doxxed and receiving an influx of threatening messages that leave them feeling distressed and unsafe. As always, the safety and well-being of the university community is a top priority. CMU Police continue to monitor the situation closely, and they have not identified any credible
threats to campus.

In an email to the Dietrich College community, Dean Cassidy Sugimoto and von Comperolle referenced LCAL’s policy on Community Responsibilities, adopted by department vote in 2024, which outlines expectations for how members of the department should communicate, especially in cases of differences of opinion. To cite the policy directly, the department “does not tolerate harassment, discrimination or disrespect in any form. This applies equally to our on-campus communications as well as to our personal off-campus communications where there is a reasonable perception or expectation that we are acting as representatives of LCAL, Dietrich College, and/or Carnegie Mellon
University.”

While university policy prohibits us from sharing information about personnel matters, we are taking swift action in accordance with our processes. We continue to prioritize support for impacted community
members, including our students.

We recognize freedom of expression and academic freedom as essential to our mission. These freedoms allow for ideas to be debated, tested and challenged. At the same time, these freedoms do not relieve any member of our community from their responsibility to support a respectful, safe and welcoming campus environment. Achieving and maintaining this balance is both challenging and the daily work of a university community.

Even in the midst of a toxic and divisive online culture, we must hold Carnegie Mellon University to a higher standard – one that rejects intimidation and hate in all forms.

Racist Left Will Have a Meltdown: Lone Holdout in Lindsay Clancy Trial Reportedly a Haitian Immigrant, and a Christian, Who Came to America as a Child

Posted on by patriotsheart

The lone holdout juror who refused to let admitted child killer Lindsay Clancy walk free on an insanity defense has reportedly been revealed as a Haitian immigrant who came to the United States as a child.

That fact, confirmed Tuesday by his own brother in an exclusive interview with the New York Post, is going to send the same media and activist chorus that spent a week smearing him into another round of cognitive dissonance.

According to The New York Post, “The brother said that the devoutly Catholic Haitian immigrant clan has been relentlessly hounded by true-crime gawkers and reporters since the juror refused to agree with the 11 others and find Clancy not guilty of murder by reason of insanity after she killed her three kids.”

“He looked at the case, and he made the call,” the brother said.

He also revealed that the family never knew the man was serving on the jury and has been subjected to relentless harassment since the mistrial.

“My family cannot leave the house,” he said.

TB Daily News reported that the juror is from a Haitian immigrant family and came to the United States when he was five years old.

According to the news outlet:

“[redacted] is a Haitian immigrant who moved here when he was 5. According to probate court documents, [redacted] did not want his ex-wife to be able to obtain a passport for their daughter, because he feared she would leave with the baby to go to Haiti, [‘which is presently unstable and unsafe.’]”

His father [redacted] was a hard working Haitian immigrant who came to this country, worked hard as a carpenter, and provided a life for his 5 children.”

As The Gateway Pundit has reported for days, that one man was immediately painted as “arrogant,” unwilling to “get over” the fact that she “viciously killed her children,” and the obstacle to a predetermined outcome.

Female jurors went on Boston television to complain. Defense attorney Kevin Reddington tried to have him removed. The judge declared a mistrial. Then the pile-on began.

CBS’s Gayle King was visibly stunned when a fellow juror revealed the holdout was a Black man, the only person of color on a panel that was otherwise White. “A Black man is a holdout juror?” King asked. “Well, I have to sit with that for just a second.” The implication was obvious: this was not the demographic they had scripted for the villain.

The Left is always “pro-immigrant” until the immigrant will not recite the approved line. They love BLM until a Black man looks at Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and 8-month-old Callan and declines to check the “not criminally responsible” box.

They celebrate Haitian migrants when it is useful for open-border politics. They hound a Haitian immigrant family when one of their own stands between a child killer and an easy acquittal.

WATCH: Kash Patel Mic-Drops on Unhinged Democrat Senator with a Damning Observation After Leftist Badgers Him During Fiery Hearing

FBI Director Kash Patel delivered an epic mic-drop moment on Vermont’s other leftist senator during a fiery Senate hearing today.

As The Hill reported, Pate testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee for an oversight hearing on Tuesday morning. Ahead of the meeting, Patel released a letter sent to panel chair Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) to explain certain FBI expenditures that have drawn attention.

Patel then spent his time touting the historic successes of his department, including a record drop in violent crime rates, and combating Democrats’ attempts to embarrass him to get television time.

At one point during the hearing, Senator Peter Welch (D-VT) consistently badgered Patel over the non-existent threat of government interference in the American people’s ability to cast votes in the upcoming election, and for ‘pandering to President Trump.

Patel made clear he had no intention of playing along with Welch’s “charade of lies” and finally got tired of his political grandstanding. After Welch whined over Trump “rigging” the November elections, Patel mic-dropped him with a devastating observation.

Patel noted that the Vermont Senator’s wealth had increased by a whopping 4,000% since being elected in 2022, marveling at this “magic act.”

Welch, of course, did not answer.

How could it not be anything but legalized theft or insider trading, likely via stocks?

WATCH:

WELCH: Do you pledge that you will not interfere with the will of the American people when they go to the polls in November?

PATEL: I pledge unequivocally that I will not participate in your charade of lies.

WELCH: Why are you being such a panderer to President Trump, who still claims that he won the 2020 election and who says the only Democrats can win in 2026 is if they cheat? Do you believe that?

PATEL: What I believe in is the rule of law…

WELCH: The rule of law, Mr. President, saying in advance…

PATEL: Are you done with your campaign ad?

WELCH: It’s been rigged!

PATEL: By the way, I want to know how your wealth increased 4,000% since you became a United States Senator.

That’s a magic act all Americans should be able to know.

Why Ceding Ukrainian Territory Will Not Bring Peace

Posted on by patriotsheart

Despite suggestions to the contrary, Ukraine ceding territory to Russia is unlikely to bring lasting peace.

 

As negotiations continue over ending the war in Ukraine, some experts and pundits argue that Kyiv should cede Russian-occupied territory in exchange for peace. However, historical precedents, Russia’s current territorial demands, and Putin’s own statements and actions suggest that such concessions would not end the conflict.

The first precedent is the 1938 Munich Agreement. Britain and France allowed Hitler to annex the Sudetenland region of Czechoslovakia in exchange for his pledge to seek no further territorial expansion. Hitler annexed the rest of Czechoslovakia five months later and invaded Poland the following September.

The second is Russia’s 2014 annexation of Crimea. Analysts at the Atlantic Council have argued that the West’s limited response, which consisted of sanctions without military support for Ukraine, convinced Putin that the West lacked the resolve to confront him and enabled the 2022 full-scale invasion.

The second precedent is the postwar occupation of Europe. Zones occupied by the U.S.-led Western Allies became liberal democracies and, aided by the Marshall Plan, developed into some of the world’s wealthiest economies. These countries established their own independent, elected governments within months of the war’s end. The Allies retained authority over some government decisions until full sovereignty was restored. This took about two years for Italy, seven years for Japan, and 10 years for West Germany and Austria.

By contrast, zones occupied by the Soviet Union became one-party dictatorships that suppressed civil liberties and lagged economically for more than four decades.

Per capita income in Russia is substantially lower than in the West. Germany’s 2025 GDP per capita was about $60,440, while Russia’s was about $17,547. For comparison, the U.S. figure that year was about $89,599. Consequently, Russia’s GDP per capita was roughly 29 percent of Germany’s and 20 percent of the U.S. figure.

Moscow, Russia’s richest city, had a gross regional domestic product per capita of about $32,000 in 2022, rising to roughly $42,000 by 2024. St. Petersburg, the country’s second-richest city, had a GRDP per capita of about $30,000 in 2022. These figures were several times the Russian national average but still substantially lower than those of Germany and the United States.

Outside these two cities, GRDP per capita in regions such as Belgorod, Vologda, and Samara ranges from $8,000 to $15,000. Russia’s poorest regions, including Ingushetia and other North Caucasus republics, have a GRDP per capita of roughly $2,000 to $3,000.

By comparison, the average GDP per capita across Latin America and the Caribbean was about $9,200 in 2024. Most Russian regions outside Moscow and St. Petersburg fall within a comparable or slightly higher range, while Russia’s poorest regions fall well below it.

Another reason to reject the notion that forcing Ukraine to cede territory will bring peace is that Russia’s positions in the 2025–2026 peace talks demand territory beyond what its forces control.

According to the Observer Research Foundation, Russia’s terms require Ukraine to withdraw entirely from Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia oblasts. This includes roughly one-quarter of Donetsk that remains under Ukrainian control.

In May 2025, Russia’s Foreign Ministry stated that it would “never allow” Ukraine to be restored within its internationally recognized 1991 borders. In his 2021 essay, “On the Historical Unity of Russians and Ukrainians,” Putin wrote that Ukraine has no genuine independent statehood and that Ukrainian sovereignty “is possible only in partnership with Russia.”

In an April 2005 address to the Russian Federal Assembly, Putin called the collapse of the Soviet Union “the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the century.”

During a February 22, 2022 meeting with Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, Putin said: “We predicted speculation that Russia plans to restore [its] empire within imperial borders. This absolutely does not correspond with reality.” The meeting occurred one day after Putin ordered troops into eastern Ukraine and two days before the full-scale invasion.

Putin did not explain why the speculation was wrong. His statement was a denial, not an argument. In the same remarks, he said Russia had “recognized the new geopolitical realities” following the Soviet collapse and worked with “all independent countries in the post-Soviet space.” He separately said Ukraine was treated as an exception because it “is being used by third countries to create threats towards Russia.”

Neither statement directly addresses the claim that Russia seeks to restore its empire. The first describes Russia’s general posture toward other former Soviet states but provides no evidence regarding Ukraine. The second explains why Russia treated Ukraine differently without explaining why that treatment does not constitute imperial restoration.

Furthermore, Putin’s actions do not dispel speculation that he will continue beyond eastern Ukraine or even beyond Ukraine itself. Consequently, the argument that Ukraine can end the war by ceding territory does not hold up.
