Trump’s FBI pick Kash Patel is “staggeringly unfit to lead the nation’s premier law enforcement agency,” according to Rep. Jamie Raskin, ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee. The Maryland Democrat can boast support from within the agency.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation Agents Association (FBIAA), along with anonymous FBI Agents and employees, has filed a temporary restraining order against the mass public release of names of agents and FBI employees who “worked on cases related to the criminal events that occurred on January 6, 2021.” Criminal events that occurred the previous year help explain the virulent opposition to Patel, who should make exposure of those events his top priority.
February 21 marks five years since Philip Haney was shot dead in Amador County, California. Parties with a possible motive include Islamic terrorists and their collaborators in the U.S. government. At the federal Department of Homeland Security, Haney exposed both.
In “DHS ordered me to scrub records of Muslims with terror ties,” published in The Hill on May 5, 2016, Haney said DHS had ordered him “to delete or modify several hundred records of individuals tied to designated Islamist terror groups like Hamas from the important federal database, the Treasury Enforcement Communications System (TECS).” In 2016 Haney authored See Something Say Nothing: A Homeland Security Officer Exposes the Government’s Submission to Jihad.
In 2019 Haney was planning a sequel for release in the spring of 2020. On February 21, 2020, he turned up dead by gunshot, but the death of a high-profile DHS whistleblower failed to launch a manhunt or produce a list of possible suspects. In the early going, the Amador County Sheriff’s Office (ACSO) rejected rumors of suicide, and those who knew Haney, including Reps. Louis Gohmert and Steve King, strongly denied that the former DHS officer was suicidal.
The ASCO tapped the FBI to assist in analyzing documents, phone records and a laptop recovered from the crime scene and Haney’s motorhome. On July 22, the ACSO announced plans to “compare the FBI’s analysis with what we have already collected and analyzed within a few weeks after receipt.” A week after the November election, the FBI “analysis” had not come to light and five years later the bureau remains silent on Haney’s docs and devices. In the meantime, Amador County went through significant changes.
In April of 2021, Sheriff Martin Ryan retired, replaced by former undersheriff Gary Redman, “a graduate of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s National Academy,” in Quantico, Virginia. Redman told the local Ledger Dispatch, there was no estimated time of arrival for evidence on Haney “out of Virginia.” As the second anniversary approached, Amador authorities told Frontpage there was no news on Haney and that the case was “closed.” The next month Redman proclaimed Haney’s death a suicide and declared the case officially closed. The FBI academy grad had to know it wasn’t.
According to forensic pathologist Katherine Raven MD, the cause of Haney’s death was a “perforating gunshot wound of torso,” approximately one inch in diameter and “consistent with contact range.” Dr. Raven found an exit wound on the left side of the back and abrasions on both knees. The forensic pathologist signed out “homicide autopsy.” That runs contrary to a later suicide ruling based on a February 14, 2022 physician/coroner’s amendment by Patrick R. Weart, the “deputy coroner,” who listed “apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound” as the cause of death.
In Amador County, the sheriff doubles as the coroner and the chief deputy coroner is a sergeant assigned to the investigations division. In Amador County, Patrick Weart served as “Sheriff’s Sergeant Advanced,” but no information on any medical training that might have qualified Weart to rule Philip Haney’s death an “apparent” self-inflicted gunshot wound after Dr. Raven called it homicide. Enter FBI senior supervisory agent Simon Maher.
He examined Haney’s laptop computer and two thumb drives and found them to contain documents that were “the property of the US Department of Border Protection/Homeland Security.” In similar style, three binders collected from Haney’s motorhome “were said to contain whistleblower documents” and possible “contraband.” Haney’s devices and 56 pages of documents sent to Eric Wilson at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and Border Protection Office of Special Responsibility in San Francisco.
A March 9, 2022 Associated Press report contended that Haney’s death “generated right-wing conspiracy theories,” but had now been ruled a suicide. Customs and Border Patrol (CPB) had determined that Haney’s devices contained “contraband” and possible violations of “CBP policy and numerous United States Codes.” CBP “strategic media engagement branch chief” Jaime Ruiz would not comment because “it’s an open investigation.”
The vaunted DHS effectively charges the dead man with harboring “contraband,” as though Haney was a smuggler and possibly guilty of fraud and illegal disclosure under five U.S. laws.
Kash Patel needs to reveal everything the FBI knows about death of Philip Haney and what, exactly, is in those materials the DHS ruled “contraband. ” The people have a right to know.
Meanwhile, Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Charles Grassley intends to hold a final committee vote on Patel “as soon as next week.” As President Trump likes to say, we’ll have to see what happens.
I happen to have a friend who was supposed to meet Haney two days after his assassin.
He was not suicidal. They found the murder weapon outside the car.
Haney was a patriot and American hero. They took him out.
Thanks Lloyd, excellent article !!!!!
Hi Lloyd. I totally agree with you and glad you are keeping this issue alive. I had heard that just a couple of weeks before Haney was killed, he had called his translator friend who was working in the Canary Islands at the time as a translator for a Russian team investigating how Covid got there. He told her that he had evidence that the virus was deliberately released by an Islamic group in China that had high level government or other powerful elite backing and that he was close to cracking the case. After they hung up his friend was questioned by local authorities over who she had been talking to. A couple of weeks later Mr. Haney was found dead. I had heard that he was close to releasing another book.
Thanks you so much for keeping track and follow along!
It is a terrible case.
I am so sad. For him, his family, and the US.
He was brilliant and incredibly knowledgeable.
Patel or Bondi definitely needs to fire and arrest Redman, Weart, Maher, Wilson and Ruiz. And yes, Patel definitely needs to have the Haney case investigated.
Kash Patel is “staggeringly unfit to lead the nation’s premier law enforcement agency,” according to rank incompetent Rep. Jamie Raskin? How so? Lil’ Stankin’ Rankin is too stupid to come up with a lie anybody would believe, which is why he resorted to an ad hominem slur which is also a lie.
The thoroughly corrupt Federal Bureau of Investigation Agents Association is comprised mainly of agents hired after Obama lowered the hiring standards and are all Dirtbagocrat operatives and scumbag careerists. The FBI is not complying with Attorney General Pam Bondi’s order to release the names of the 5000 agents involved in the politically motivated (D-Bag) J-6 investigation. The FBI is a bureau of the Department of Justice and COMPLETELY answerable to Bondi. Those FBI scumbags released the employee numbers of the 5000 agents instead of their names. They’re playing games and it won’t work. Bondi could fire every member of the FBIAA and all 5000 of the agents tomorrow morning if she wants to. She definitely should fire every member of the FBIAA.
The Agents’ and paper pushers’ names can be determined by their employee numbers but I seriously doubt Bondi will bother. I predict she’ll find out who’s responsible for the insubordination and fire their asses. Good riddance and a good start. Insubordinate agents are trying to sue the Justice Department over the list. Good luck with that, idiots. You just singled yourselves out for termination.
There’s no need to fire the paper pushers although they should all be reprimanded as part of their permanent employee records. Every agent who participated in the J-6 set up of MAGA supporters needs to be fired and prosecuted.
Those FBI retards are living in the past and think they’re immune to the reach of Trump, Bondi and soon Patel. I’m going to laugh when an enormous number of them are fired.
FIRED?!!! This looks more like Treason, Terrorism! We have to make examples of these characters.
Why are democrats screaming so loud about USAID. Looks like money kickbacks. Trump is threatening
to take away easy money from democrats. And you don’t take away democrats easy money.
Yes. Prosecute all the malefactors.
Good news: Bondi sent the FBI an ultimatum entitled “Termination,” and the FBI traitors immediately sent the 5000 names and bios. Also, she fired eight of the scumbags immediately. You can bet they were all the most brazenly insubordinate ones I predicted.
Again, those FBI retards are living in the past and think they’re immune to the reach of Trump, Bondi and soon Patel. They’re being taught the hard way that their days are numbered but you know how it is with stupid people. They never learn. I look forward to the mass firings to come and hope to God they’re followed by mass prosecutions.
And why are the SS agents who raided Mar a Lago still walking around free with Merrick Garland?
Since Haney’s death occurred on February 21, 2020, less than a month into the Biden Admin., I would like to know who ordered the hit.
With the return of the adults to Government maybe we will actually have an investigation.
We can rule out any Sleepy Joe involvement.
He was nothing more than a retarded husk used to sign off on garbage, woke agenda items; then wisked away as much as possible.
In the case of Philip Haney’s murder, we can assume Sleepy was entirely out of the loop, lest he blurt another Freudian slip such as “most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in history”.
That aside, as payments are looked at, I hope they find something concrete, and if even an ounce touches Sleepy, throw the most extensive & inclusive prosecution at the low-life husk and his entire family.
Don’ be so certain Dopey Joey the Husk is really all husk. I keep geing the string impression that he has highly polishd his “act” over the greater part of cenury. That’s time enough to polish the turdstone well enough to have it pass as authentic. He’s no dummie. He has power and KNOWS i,t The “Dopey JOey: schtick is a put on
Not hardly. There’s over fifty years worth of proof that Slow Joe has always been a retard and five years of proof that he’s senile. He has stage 4 Alzheimer’s. That particular scale only goes to 5, which terminates in death. Most of the screening tools for dementia go from 1 to 5 but a few of them go to 7 and some far less accurate ones only go to 3.
Five years ago the senile Tard declared his candidacy for the presidency by shouting “I’m Joe Biden and I’m running for Senate! In that angry old man voice of his. I knew right then that he was senile and so did the White House Doctor at the time, Ronny Jackson, who was the Dr for both Trump and Brokeback, noticed it to and gave his expert opinion publicly but the Minitrue Media did their best to conceal his revealation and Alzheimer Joe’s handlers got rid of him on day one and brought in a charlatan to lie about his condition for the next four years.
I’ll concede that Sleepy on a few occasions was his own boss (in spite of his dementia).
Trouble is that one of those occasions was the shameful abandonment of Afghanistan & Bagram Airbase.
The old gasbag fixated on a vision of grandeur; giving a historic speech on the 20th anniversary of 9/11. And, so by God we had to be completely out on an impossible time-line.
The deluded grifter didn’t succeed in making his glorious speech, but did succeed in making us look like a gutless laughing stock.
Thank you Lloyd for this follow up article. Many, many people were friend with the Christian man Philip Haney. he told many people that if he were ever found dead, it would not be a suicide. He was so excited to be heading up a group of Christians and educating them on the true Islam. And what must be done to stop it’s spread here in the U.S. He held a meeting on this just weeks before his death.
Philip Haney was whacked and everyone knows it.
Mohammad did it…..
We’ve, or rather THEY, have reached the point of RUSSIA , RUSSIA, RUSSIA in the way that people are “dealt with”! The left is a dangerous, hideous group that needs to be exposed and eliminated! Every person involved in the coverup of Mr. Haney’s execution should be removed from society for a LONG TIME Every FBI Agent on the GROUND at the Capitol should be investigated and charged with Conspiracy to Overthrow Our Government – remember, PRESIDENT TRUMP was STILL President at the time!
Mr. Haney’s assassination should be a high priority – how “fortunate” to have an FBI guy in charge of the Police and also the CORONER. His qualifications to determine the cause of death should be examined and he should be offered a chance to enlighten everyone on what the MEDICAL expert got so wrong!
It’s no wonder why Raskin and the others are berserk over their slush fund criminal organization. They KNOW that if we learn what they have done there, the TRUTHS coming out of having HONEST people in the DOJ and FBI will make the USAID corruption pale in comparison. And as far as those SCHEMES to route/re-route money to the favored DEMOcrats? Somehow I think that should at least be considered Conspiracy to DEFRAUD the US Government. Might just be a CRIME!!
crime? Nah. Just bidniss as you zhuall It’s just the Eff Bee Aye Way.
The link provided in this article to the autopsy shows a drawing of the entry wound from the bullet just above the left nipple and an exit wound below the left scapula. That seems awkward for suicide. Did we ever get to see or read the suicide note? Also, it is claimed Haney gave away his plants the day before his death. But the “contraband binders” were left in his trailer home?
Why would he see to the care of his plants, but not the documents forming the very basis of his investigative work? The evidence that would exonerate him and justify his public statements?
A wound on the left surely sounds as if a right-handed assailant inflicted it whilst standing in front of him. If Haney was right-handed, the wound is, as you say, awkward; if by any chance he was left-handed, that would trash the suicide verdict completely, because it would be impossible to operate a firearm at the requisite angle.
Haney was just under 6 ft. tall, also. Not that tall. Any reasonably tall assailant could use a natural stance and easily shoot him at the nipple with the bullet traveling downward through the body.
If Haney shot himself, he would have to lift his elbow high and cock his wrist inward. If he did not lift his elbow very high, his wrist would have to bend inward even more — not a stable, natural position from which to do the business of suicide — especially one planned by an intelligent person who was not spontaneous. The suicide note removes spontaneity.
Here. Here. …… .
Hear, hear! [Moderation says my comment is too short to post, hence this addition. –AGF]
Thank you Lloyd, for keeping this story front and center.
It’s remains a mystery that we tolerate the presence of moslems in our country.
Phil was a close friend from people across our nation. He was one of the most intelligent men I have ever met. He once told me he had enough evidence to bury the Clinton’s. Don’t rule that out as a motive for his murder.
Investigating voter fraud in California is a close second .
They fear Kash Patel because life as they have reveled in the pig slop at the FBI will cease to exist. Many will be outed and fired. Many will be investigated and indicted. AG Bondi needs to fire all FBI agents they are requesting information, stalling or providing misinformation or employee numbers not names of the 5k agents investigated J6 which should have started investigating within the FBI itself.
We are seeing just how corrupt the government agencies are to pilfer and launder our tax dollars to turning on us citizens and attempting to destroy all things US Constitutional.
The corruption is not new and the corruption runs deep.
But I feel confident, in only week 3 of his 2nd term Presidency, President Trump and team will lick the FBI and whip it into shape if it has to fire 25% of agents of all levels.
President Trump, Pam Bondi and Kash Patel will definitely have to fire AT LEAST 25% of agents at all levels to even make a dent in FBI Dirtbagocrat political corruption and just plain apolitical corruption. Six out of seven of its executives have been fired – the worst of the worst – and twenty field office chiefs.
We both look forward to the continued purge.
How about Seth Rich? I’d like to know if the DNC bumped him off!
The question is not if, but whom.
This is the first that I have heard of any possible connection between Islamists and the release of the COVID virus – I had assumed that, if there was any malfeasance involved, rather than just criminal negligence on the part of the laboratory, then it was down to the CCP.
You know what else Kash needs to immediately look into?
Waco
Ruby Ridge
LaVoy Finicum
Yes although Waco was already looked into by a Senate hearing chaired by Slow Joe Biden. After hours upon hours of video proof and testimony, that piece of shit stood up and read a speech that claimed the proved guilty FBI and ATF agents were innocent and exonerated. Once a lying sack of shit, always a lying sack of shit.
La Voy Vinicum was assassinated by he Oregon Sae Police at a staged showdown roadblock. They were operating under orders from Kate Brown, then governor of that state. I will readily grant that those orders oozed downslope from some EffBeeAye goons, also under orders from “someone” further up the sewer main.
Don’ forget this Brown’s heritage….. part of the same California Dynasty that brought us Edmund G Pat Brown, his later soj governor whose name thankfuly escapes me just now, the present fool in Sackamenna, the Gabbling Nuisance, and stretching out even further to include Nannie the PigLousy sorry excuse of a senatrix. and I seem to recall also including that certain long time utterly corrupt Senatrix from Washington Sate, Patty Whatzername.
Nepotism, anyone?
Something else about Vinicum’s murder is that we all knew it was going to happen.
The Assination of Kennedy who really is responsible?! And many think that the TV superman George Reeve was Murdered
Yes George Reeves was probably murdered by his wife and the crooked LA cops covered it up.
