In this explosive episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano exposes how declassified documents confirm the intelligence community manipulated assessments to launch the Russia collusion hoax and sabotage President Trump. From Brennan and Clapper to Comey and Obama, top officials weaponized intelligence and misled the public. Professor Giordano plays a clip from his very first episode in 2019, The Russia Impact, where he accurately warned this was happening in real-time. Now, with the truth laid bare, the media and Democrats scramble to cover their tracks. This episode is a must-listen for anyone serious about accountability, transparency, and the survival of our constitutional republic.

In Episode 142, we dive into critical political revelations. We examine five lies allegedly told by former CIA Director John Brennan regarding the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA), declassified by DNI Tulsi Gabbard, which falsely claimed Russian President Vladimir Putin favored Donald Trump's 2016 election win. These lies include misrepresenting sources and ignoring contradictory intelligence, as exposed by a House Intelligence Committee report. We also discuss the media's failure to cover President Obama's directive to produce a new ICA asserting Russian support for Trump, despite lacking evidence. Additionally, we analyze Senator Mazie Hirono's misleading portrayal of Judge Jeanine Pirro, highlighting its malicious intent. Finally, we address the spike in grocery prices, clarifying that these increases occurred entirely under President Biden's term, debunking claims attributing them elsewhere.

Newly declassified documents released by DNI Tulsi Gabbard expose the truth behind the Russia hoax, confirming that the Intelligence Community knew before the 2016 election that Russia posed no credible threat to the outcome, yet a post-election political operation, driven by the Obama White House and weaponized by senior officials, flipped the narrative to undermine President Trump. In this episode, Professor Nick Giordano breaks down the documents, details how the Deep State deceived the public, and calls for Congress to implement permanent legislative reforms to defang the bureaucracy and restore constitutional order. Episode Highlights: The Intelligence Community's original 2016 assessment debunked claims of Russian vote tampering, before the narrative was flipped. How the Obama administration suppressed dissent, buried intelligence, and inserted the discredited Steele Dossier to delegitimize Trump. Why accountability alone isn't enough, and the urgent need for Congress to codify reforms to dismantle the Fourth Branch of Government.

Taiwan has launched its largest annual military exercise ever - amid growing concern that China is on the cusp of launching a military invasion. Many national security experts see a Chinese invasion as inevitable. A recent piece published at the cipher brief.com focuses on what Washington will do when it does happen. But first, it's the Intelligence Community that is on the front lines - charged with gathering as much information as possible about Xi Jinping's intent.  This week, State Secrets is talking with Susan Miller, who retired just a few months ago from CIA, where she served as the Assistant Director for the Agency's China Mission Center.  The Center was established in October of 2021, to better address the national security challenges posed by the People's Republic of China.

We discuss Tucker Carlson vs. Ted Cruz, whether Mike Lee wants to sell American Land to the highest bidder, Donald Trump says his intelligence community is wrong about Iran, and more before WWIII and global warming happens and destroys us all.

President Trump says he will decide on U.S. action in the Middle East "within two weeks." Retired Lieutenant General Steph Twitty discusses the Intelligence Community's assessment that Iran isn't close to creating a weapon despite President Trump saying a weapon is a “few weeks away.” A new Deciders focus group shows Trump Latino voters splitting with the president over his mass deportation agenda but largely still backing him.

Are all UFO/UAP encounters the result of deception and disinformation created by the U.S. government? Such claims have been made many times in the past 75 years and have recently been resurrected from the dusty archives of the DoD's UFO Library. In this episode of WEAPONIZED, Jeremy Corbell and George Knapp discuss the latest attempts by former Defense Department insiders to cast doubt on all UFO cases, incidents, photos, videos, witnesses, and even the testimony of future whistleblowers who have not yet gone public. Can journalists pierce the veil of secrecy and lies? Sometimes. One way to circumvent psyops and outrageous cover stories is to present compelling evidence that the public can evaluate for itself. A video recorded by a military sensor over a conflict zone has been hidden for years. The huge disc-shaped mystery object was seen as it slipped in and out of clouds, abruptly changed direction, and was labeled by the military as a “UAP.” This is the first time the public has been able to see the massive “disc” as it zips into cloud cover, then reverses itself. WATCH THE RAW UAP FOOTAGE HERE : https://youtu.be/lqLPqTheYrg WATCH THE FULL UAP REPORT HERE : https://youtu.be/Zdl1nz3t3DE READ THE FULL UAP REPORT HERE : https://www.weaponizedpodcast.com/news-1/large-disc-uap GOT A TIP? Reach out to us at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WeaponizedPodcast@Proton.me⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ *** Investigative journalists Jeremy Corbell and George Knapp obtained and are revealing for the first time - military filmed footage of a UAP - officially documented and catalogued within Intelligence Community investigations as “disc” shaped. This UAP of unknown origin displayed abrupt movement and intelligent control, with the absence of thermal propulsion signatures. Official designation of UAP was made by the United States Department of Defense. This designation is currently maintained. DATE / TIME - 23 November 2020 / 11:13 UTC LOCATION - Reconnaissance footage indicates 35°02.91'N, 71°17.86'E IMAGING TYPE - Thermographic / Forward Looking Infrared (FLIR) EVENT DESCRIPTION - Filmed by a platform operating under the direction of the United States Air Force, the object was initially passively tracked and is described in official documentation as “navigating through the clouds.” The UAP appears to demonstrate an abrupt directional change. Atmospheric disruption was noted in case documentation - as was the absence of traditional thermal propulsion signatures during performance. Its origin, intent, and capabilities remain unknown. ••• For breaking news, follow Corbell & Knapp on all social media.

In a stunning revelation, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claims Iran attempted to assassinate Donald Trump not once, but twice — directly contradicting statements by U.S. intelligence officials. Fox News host Bret Baier and former CIA operatives react in real time, while Dan Bongino and Kash Patel cast doubt on the depth of domestic intelligence transparency. The segment explores the murky battle over classified documents, the deep state's grip on intelligence agencies, and the alarming ties between Iran and violent domestic unrest. From Iranian proxy attacks on U.S. naval ships to the Biden administration's lack of sanctions and past cash payments to Tehran, this exposé paints a picture of dangerous entanglement: a Democrat-Iran alliance using foreign and domestic proxies to undermine American sovereignty.

Kash Patel is the Director of the FBI, appointed in February 2025. A former federal public defender, national security prosecutor, and senior official in both the Department of Justice and the Trump administration, he has held roles across the Intelligence Community, Department of Defense, and National Security Council.www.fbi.gov Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of "Are We All Clear? Facilitating Security Clearances," host Marina O'Brien talks with Robert A. Friedman, co-head of Holland & Knight's International Trade practice and a leader of the firm's National Security & Defense Industry Group, about intelligence community (IC) security clearances. They discuss how IC clearances differ from the processes used by the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) and Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA), highlighting that IC clearances are contract-specific, often less prescriptive and can vary depending on the assigned contracting officer. In addition, both use similar documentation and focus heavily on foreign ownership, control or influence (FOCI) analysis, but IC tends to be more cautious with foreign investors outside U.S. allies. Mr. Friedman recommends companies be as transparent as possible and seek legal counsel when filling out clearance applications and also reminds the listeners that there is a newly updated SF-328 form that requires more detailed information and diligence in the clearance process.

Recently on Capitol Hill, lawmakers were provided a classified briefing on UAP by the FBI, and now several U.S. Representatives are saying the Bureau needs to be more involved in the Pentagon's investigations into anomalous phenomena.

Darrell Castle discusses the Annual Threat Assessment of the U.S. Intelligence Community just issued and signed off on by the office of the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard. Transcription / Notes THREAT ASSESSMENT Hello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Good Friday on the 18th day of April 2025. I will be talking about the Annual Threat Assessment of the U.S. Intelligence Community just issued and signed off on by the office of the Director of National Intelligence who at this moment is Tulsi Gabbard. This report gives the assessment of threats the U.S. faces from each country in the world where a threat is perceived to exist and is the combined assessment of the 17 intelligence agencies that are under the authority of the national director. This report, which is published annually, is hot off the presses, but I don't recommend that you read all 33 pages as I have unless you have a high tolerance for being terrified. Yes, once you have read this report you will wonder how the people who deal with this information every day manage to sleep at night. I will take this opportunity to share the highlights of the threat assessment as determined by U.S, Intelligence with you so you don't have to read it and risk being terrorized. The forward to the report introduces us to what is about to be presented. Terrorist and transnational criminal organizations, and I suppose that means drug cartels and their national supporters directly threaten our citizens and are directly responsible for more than 55,000 U.S. deaths from synthetic opioids in the last year, a 33% increase over the previous year.. It is amazing to me just how destructive the scourge of drugs has been to America. Those who are addicted seem to have an uncontrollable desire for the drug which enslaves them. I suppose the drugs at first, promise a good time or relief from bad times, but deliver, instead, misery and death. I certainly believe that the U.S. government should consider as threats the nations enabling the cartels who do it for money and power. It's a difficult problem indeed, for the cartels, thanks mostly to China, apparently control virtually all of Mexico and have made significant inroads into the governments of the various border states especially Arizona. “Western Hemisphere based TCOs and terrorists involved in illicit drug production and trafficking bound for the United States endanger the health and safety of millions of Americans, contribute to regional instability.” Well, that's a no brainer isn't it so I wonder why no one in the government takes the time to explain to Mr. and Ms. Average American exactly what is happening and why such action against the cartels is necessary to save our lives. It is apparently profit for India, but for China they do it at cost because it's a weapon to weaken and destroy the U.S. Mexico and its politicians are apparently so intimidated and terrified by the cartels and their multi billions in monetary assets that they do the cartels bidding. In case you had any doubts about whether or not international terrorist groups are still active and still intent on doing harm not only to the U.S. Government but citizens as well you can now remove any doubt. “ISIS most aggressive branches, including ISIS-Khorasan (ISIS-K), and its entrepreneurial plotters will continue to seek to attack the West, including the United States, via online outreach and propaganda aimed at directing, enabling, or inspiring attacks, and could exploit vulnerable travel routes.” Well, that's encouraging isn't it to know that ISIS seeks to exploit your travel routes. The Report tells us that the New Year's Day attacker in New Orleans was influenced by ISIS propaganda, as well as the Afghan national who was arrested in October for planning an election day attack in the name of ISIS. The intent of the attacks was to demonstrate to us and the world that ISIS could attack inside the US at an...

Veteran and entrepreneur Chad Grills of National Capital League discusses his experience with Big Tech and how building anything meaningful and lasting will likely not come out of Silicon Valley or places like California. He explains how Silicon Valley was seeded by DOD, the Intelligence Community, and DARPA. The culture of Silicon Valley and most major cities will not allow anything original or good for humanity to emerge. He argues we have neither communism nor capitalism, but a monopolistic system that keeps the little guy out. He stresses a need for better governance, creating good culture, maintaining personal integrity, and is optimistic about the ability of America to reinvent itself.

The long-awaited JFK files have finally been released, and one of the most revealing details isn't what's in them—but what the CIA wanted to keep hidden. Among the redactions in the report, one stands out: “The Israeli Intelligence Service.” Why was this information deemed too sensitive for public eyes, even after all these years? In this episode, I break down my initial reaction to the files, what this redaction could mean, and how it fits into the bigger picture of JFK's assassination, and American politics in general.—https://policecoffee.com/?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAACG7qmIkS3X8ivoZzZosZdSRJueTZ&gclid=Cj0KCQjw1um-BhDtARIsABjU5x6X9JVI5Dihvk6wiS1l5Ra9sToZWRHjj-F0vy3owqCssQ1Bpb0eGaQaAsF1EALw_wcB

The Department of Homeland Security has selected Antoine McCord as its new chief information officer, a spokesperson with the agency's Management Directorate confirmed Friday. As CIO, McCord will be tasked with overseeing DHS's roughly $11 billion IT budget, the largest of any federal agency in fiscal 2025. A bio for McCord on the DHS website said he “emphasizes mission-driven leadership, focusing on operations to neutralize threats against the Department.” Details about McCord's background are scarce, beyond what's contained in that DHS bio page. According to the agency, he served in the U.S. Marine Corps, specializing in cyber and intelligence operations and “gaining hands-on experience in threat detection and technology integration.” After his time with the Marines, McCord joined the U.S. Intelligence Community, according to DHS, in roles that saw him oversee cyber operations against advanced threats and serve as an adviser on national security issues. McCord will be stepping into a CIO role that was filled during the Biden administration by Eric Hysen, who also led the department's artificial intelligence efforts. Hysen, a Google alum and a founding member of the White House's U.S. Digital Service, oversaw the creation of DHS's AI Corps, the publication of an AI roadmap and the release of commercial generative AI guidance. Firings at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration have former workers, lawmakers, and advocates concerned about impact on the agency's efforts to produce climate and weather information critical to public safety. NOAA is one of many federal agencies in the U.S. that has cut probationary workers in recent weeks as part of President Donald Trump's plan to reduce the size of the federal government. While critics of the Trump administration have argued the rapid and widespread staffing reductions could have adverse consequences across the government, the picture they paint with respect to NOAA's terminations is particularly grim. That's because the agency's mission impacts every American, former NOAA workers told FedScoop. The recent cuts to staff put that work at risk, particularly for areas at the agency where staffing levels were already an issue, they said. What's more, there are areas outside of staffing cuts where efficiencies could have been achieved through consolidating work and technology advancements.

Some of the most dangerous technocrats in America came out of the same company back in the early 2000s, and after a photoshoot imitating a large Mafia family, the legend of the PayPal Mafia was born. These 19 guys went on to form, finance, influence, mentor, or control some of the largest and most transformational tech companies in the world, but not without racking up plenty of Globalist connections and World Economic Forum Young Global Leaders designations. The most alarming component is the massive and undeniable ties to the Intelligence Community, making these people the Silicon Valley franchise of the Deep State. It wouldn't be the first time that the American government worked with the Mafia.

A pioneer in building technical solutions to protect society from predators, Nic is passionate about solving society's most pressing issues through cost-effective technical solutions. Nic grew up in Montana but left to join US military special operations as a US Air Force Pararescueman. After more than a decade in Pararescue, Nic worked in private intelligence start-ups before being recruited into a specialized unit at the Central Intelligence Agency that provided unique capabilities and expertise in response to the critical operational needs of the Intelligence Community. With 30 combat deployments under his belt in both Special Operations and the CIA, Nic experienced the power of technology during the Global War on Terror and set out to use his skills and training with that experience to combat modern slavery.
