Well, well, well.

Looks like all those people mocked for wearing tinfoil hats were right about deep state — again.

Despite the fervent complaints from the left that the deep state doesn’t exist, President Donald Trump and his administration are painfully aware that it does.

And Trump has a very good reason to be furious with the deep state, especially if a new, bombshell whistleblower report contains even a kernel of truth.

In a New York Post exclusive, an FBI agent who was a part of then-special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into claims that Trump and members of his campaign colluded with Russia to affect the 2016 election came out with some damning allegations directed at how that investigation unfolded.

The New York Post dug up details on these December 2020 allegations after GOP Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley wrote to Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel Sunday, referencing some of these disturbing claims.

Grassley said that the allegations confirm “long-standing concerns that political bias rotted the decision-making process within the Mueller team.”

And “rot” might be an understatement.

From the outset, if this agent’s claims are true, it was clear that this wasn’t an unbiased investigation interested in the truth, so much as it was a biased witch hunt interested in taking down Trump.

After all, how can anyone expect a fair investigation when agents were drinking on the job and plastering anti-Trump cartoons on the walls? That’s not exactly befitting of an arbiter of justice. And yet, somehow, it gets worse.

Not only was this investigation biased from the get-go, it also tried to cover up this fact by ordering people to doctor records.

In one glaring example of this, former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe spoke of Trump “in a derogatory manner” while on record for an official interview. The agent claimed that Justice Department prosecutors tried to pressure a female FBI agent to “change the tone of the [document] to reflect that McCabe spoke about [Trump] without the negative connotation.”

The female FBI agent refused to do so, and left the agency shortly after her time with the Mueller probe was over.

Compounding matters, some of these anti-Trump witch hunters held a flagrant disregard for security protocol.

The FBI agent alleged that Zainad Ahmad, the prosecutor for the Mueller probe and a protege of former Barack Obama Attorney General Loretta Lynch, was constantly breaking security protocols.

“For example, she brought classified documents to a meeting at WFO [Washington Field Office] without adherence to FBI security policy by bringing her classified notebook to the meeting without a proper carrying bag,” the agent alleged. “What was worse, she came to WFO from her residence, meaning she kept her notebook at the residence.”

The security protocol issue should infuriate you, as an American, regardless of whether you love or detest Trump. If the FBI can be this biased, destructive, and flippant when it comes to investigating Trump, the FBI can be this biased, destructive, and flippant when it comes to anyone.

(Almost as infuriating as the fact that Mueller’s probe cost taxpayers over $30 million, according to the New York Post, and produced zilch.)

If even a fraction of these allegations holds water, it’s a devastating blow to the Mueller probe, which was an investigation that was sold to the American public as the gold standard of independence and professionalism.

Instead, what’s being described sounds less like a sober search for truth and more like a politically charged operation marred by bias, corner-cutting, and questionable judgment.

The credibility of any investigation hinges on the integrity of the people conducting it, and once that perception is compromised, the findings themselves — no matter how thoroughly documented — become suspect in the eyes of the public.

And that’s why this shouldn’t be dismissed as just another partisan food fight.

Whether you supported Trump or vehemently opposed him, the idea that federal law enforcement could be influenced by political animus, or worse, attempt to sanitize records to fit a preferred narrative, should set off alarm bells. The justice system isn’t supposed to operate on vibes or vendettas; it’s supposed to be grounded in facts, fairness, and fidelity to the law.

If Americans begin to believe those principles are optional, depending on who’s being investigated, trust in the system collapses.

Because at the end of the day, this isn’t just about Trump, Mueller, or one high-profile investigation. It’s about whether the institutions tasked with upholding the law can be trusted to do so without fear or favor.

If they can’t — or even if it appears that they can’t — then every future investigation, prosecution, and conviction carries an asterisk. And once that doubt takes hold, it’s not easily undone.

A shooting at Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexico on Tuesday resulted in one person dead and another injured.

According to KTSM, Holloman Air Force Base was placed on lockdown shortly after 5:00 p.m. for an active shooter incident.

The lockdown was later lifted, and military officials confirmed the scene was safe.

Details regarding the shooter and the victim have been withheld from the public at this time.

Per KTSM:

One person is dead and another hurt after a shooting Tuesday afternoon, March 17 at Holloman Air Force Base.

At around 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, the base was placed on lockdown following reports of an active shooter, according to a news release by Holloman AFB. The base is more than 10 miles southwest of Alamogordo.

One person is dead, and one was injured. The person hurt has been transported for medical treatment.

It is unclear if those involved in the shooting were military members.

The lockdown was later lifted when security forces personnel “confirmed that the scene was safe.”

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani could not take a break from his radical leftist worldview to honor Irish people and Irish Americans for even one day. During his St. Patrick’s Day remarks, he brought up the ‘genocide’ in Palestine.

Leftists are incapable of dropping their political agenda, they just can’t do it. It’s why the left wing President of Ireland just tried to make the story of St. Patrick all about migrants.

They feel a constant need to push their talking points, no matter the time or place.

FOX News reports:

Mamdani references Palestinian ‘genocide’ during St Patrick’s Day event

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani referenced the “genocide” of Palestinians during a St. Patrick’s Day event Tuesday at Gracie Mansion.

Mamdani made the remarks at a breakfast honoring Irish New Yorkers, where he praised former Irish President Mary Robinson for her record on human rights and her support for Palestinians.

“I say this as over the past few years, as we’ve witnessed a genocide unfold before our eyes, there has been deafening silence from so many,” Mamdani said. “For those who have long cared about universal human rights and the extension of them to Palestinians, silence, however, is nothing new – for Palestinians are so often left to weep alone. Yet former President Robinson has never been silent.”

Mamdani tied Irish history to broader themes of solidarity, calling it “no coincidence” and asking, “Who can better understand those who weep than those who have been made to weep for so long?”

“The story of the Irish, both in Ireland and in New York City, is at one time a story of oppression, of subjugation, and of discrimination,” the mayor told attendees.

For the left, it’s all agenda, all the time. They never ever take a day off.

We can’t just let St. Patrick’s Day be all about the Irish, can we?

Ben Bankas is the right wing comedian who has quickly made a name for himself by standing out from the crowd. If you’re not familiar with his work, you should be. You can see a bunch of clips of his act here.

Bankas was recently interviewed on the Triggernometry Podcast and he talked about his act, the differences between the right and the left, free speech, his career and more.

Who knows, perhaps his success will inspire more conservative minded people to get into the business. Like all forms of entertainment, comedy needs more political balance.

From Triggernometry:

What did we talk about?

”In a way, the more angry people get at the joke, the better. These people have all their problems, and still they choose to be mad about my comedy. You’re welcome – I gave you a break from your own life.”

The role of the comic is an odd one. They’re tasked to distract us from ‘the real world’ as often as they are to hold a mirror up to it. It’s a role that requires tact, consideration, and an artful touch. At least, it does to most – not to Ben. To Ben, funny’s funny, and it’s no more complicated than that.

”A lot of comedy is about making people laugh, but also making them say ‘It’s not the right time!’. I don’t belive in that idea. I don’t believe in censoring myself. If it’s on a stage and people have paid for it, it is the right time.”

Some have accused Ben of going ‘too far’, of ‘punching down’. Looking at the comments of his videos, you don’t have to scroll far before you find someone wagging their finger. Ben finds it amusing; if these people saw his act in person, their hair would whiten.

”My [most shocking] jokes …. I don’t post those. Those are just for the audience. Those are for the people in the room.”

It’s hard to imagine Ben going much darker than what he lets see the light. Occasionally, it’s cost him.

Earlier this year, Ben was embroiled in controversy over his dicey ICE material. The ongoing raids are a sore spot for Americans. They horrify the left, embarrass the right, and alienate the middle ground. It’s not hard to understand why; whether you think the actions are just or not, the footage is disturbing, and there are enough scandalous stories to give the average person pause for thought.

In this clip, he talks about how the left needs to loosen up on jokes.

“The left needs to loosen up. Stop dying on the hill of what the other side is allowed to joke about.”

Here, he talks about his shows in Minneapolis getting canceled over a Renee Good joke.

“If you’re not woke, you shouldn’t be allowed to perform, you shouldn’t be allowed to be platformed, even when the shows are sold out. That’s wrong.”
