DOJ Weaponization Working Group Targets Schiff, James, and the ‘Autopen’ Legacy

By Senior Investigative Correspondent

The 2026 Restoration has reached its clinical apex. Attorney General Pam Bondi has set the Department of Justice "spinning like a top," according to Ed Martin, Director of the Weaponization Working Group. The mandate is clear: a surgical, deep-dive audit into a "decade of dirty tricks" used to target the American people and the 47th President. As federal investigators move with Wartime Speed, the "Infrastructure of Deceit" constructed by the previous administration is facing its final, clinical reckoning.

I. THE MORTGAGE SIEGE: SCHIFF AND JAMES IN THE CROSSHAIRS

The audit has pivoted from political rhetoric to forensic financial reality. Ed Martin confirmed that the DOJ is currently reviewing criminal referrals for Representative Adam Schiff (D-CA) and New York Attorney General Letitia James regarding alleged false statements in mortgage paperwork.

For James, the legal situation is already critical. A grand jury in Virginia indicted her in late 2025 for bank fraud and making false statements related to a property in Norfolk, Virginia. Schiff faces similar scrutiny over mortgage fraud allegations tied to a property in Maryland. Martin emphasized the "Character = 100" principle driving these probes: “Every American who has a mortgage has to follow the law. If somebody did something wrong, we’re going to hold them accountable”. This is a Smoking Gun for those who believe the "Machine of Disruption" ignored the law while weaponizing it against their rivals.

II. DECLASSIFYING THE "RUSSIA HOAX": THE OBAMA-MEDIA NEXUS

While the mortgage probes target individual conduct, the DOJ is also reconstructing the 2016 election interference narrative. Utilizing "Liquid Gold Intel" declassified by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, the DOJ is investigating evidence that the Obama administration coordinated directly with media outlets in December 2016 to push the "Russian collusion" narrative.

This investigation aims to dismantle the foundational myths of the previous decade. By tracing the origins of the "hoax" at Wartime Speed, the 2026 Renaissance ensures that the weaponization of intelligence for partisan gain is surgically removed from the American body politic.

III. THE AUTOPEN SCANDAL: REVOKING THE ‘MECHANICAL’ PARDONS

Perhaps the most explosive development is the potential nullification of thousands of clemency decisions issued in the final months of the Biden administration. President Donald Trump has signaled that pardons tied to the House January 6th Committee—which he labeled a "hoax"—could be revoked.

The legal basis for this move is the "Autopen Scandal." Evidence suggests that former President Biden delegated major clemency decisions to staff and family members, who affixed his mechanical signature to warrants affecting over 4,000 individuals.

The Delegation Crisis: A House Oversight report, "The Biden Autopen Presidency," alleges these actions were taken without Biden’s direct authorization as his cognitive capacity diminished.
"Flood the Zone": Reports indicate the White House sought to "flood the zone" with pardons to distract from the political fallout of the Hunter Biden pardon.
Public Safety Threat: Some autopen-signed documents allowed violent offenders to qualify for sentence reductions, a move the current DOJ views as an unconstitutional overreach.

IV. THE OMAR CONTROVERSY: TREASON OR SPEECH?

As the DOJ audits domestic corruption, Representative Ilhan Omar (D-MN) is facing backlash for claiming the U.S. "loves to strike Muslim countries during Ramadan". A viral Community Note quickly dismantled her claims, noting that the 2003 invasion of Iraq and Operation Desert Storm both began months away from Ramadan.

While supporters defend her speech, critics like Dalia al-Aqidi argue these "deliberate lies" embolden adversaries like Iran. The debate highlights the tension between protected speech and rhetoric that critics say crosses into "aid and comfort" for enemies during international crises.

THE FINAL VERDICT: ADMINISTRATIVE LETHALITY

The 2026 Restoration is no longer an idea—it is a clinical reality. From the mortgage files of Adam Schiff to the mechanical signatures of the "Autopen Presidency," the audit is being conducted with a precision that the "leakers and liars" never anticipated. As Attorney General Pam Bondi prepares for the legal battles ahead, the 119th Congress remains focused on a Victorious American future where the law is applied equally to all, regardless of their status in the "West Coast elite."

Acting AG Blanche Fires Back at Obama’s DOJ Criticism

Posted July 21, 2026

Former President Barack Obama sharply criticized the Trump administration this week over what he described as growing political influence inside the United States Department of Justice, prompting an aggressive response from Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche defending both the administration’s prosecutions and President Donald Trump’s authority over the executive branch.

The escalating public dispute comes as the Justice Department faces mounting scrutiny over a series of criminal investigations and indictments involving several longtime Trump critics and political adversaries, including former FBI Director James Comey.

Obama raised the issue during an interview with Stephen Colbert on CBS’ The Late Show with Stephen Colbert that aired Monday night.

“The White House shouldn’t be able to direct the attorney general to go around prosecuting whoever,” Obama said during the interview. “The idea is that the attorney general is the people’s lawyer. It’s not the president’s consigliere.”

Obama suggested the principle of DOJ independence may ultimately need to be codified into law by Congress, arguing that the justice system risks becoming politicized if presidents are perceived as directly targeting political opponents through federal prosecutions.

The comments immediately triggered pushback from the Trump administration.

White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson accused Obama of hypocrisy, arguing that his administration played a central role in the origins of the Trump-Russia investigation.

“Barack Hussein Obama is the king of weaponization,” Jackson said in a statement, referencing declassified documents related to the FBI’s Russia probe.

But the administration’s most extensive response came Wednesday from Blanche during an interview with CBS News in Phoenix.

Blanche forcefully rejected accusations that the DOJ is engaged in political retaliation and defended the president’s constitutional authority over the executive branch.

“Article Two says, ‘the executive power shall be vested in the President of the United States of America,’” Blanche said while holding a pocket copy of the Constitution during the interview. “It does not say that the Attorney General stands off to the side.”

Blanche emphasized that the attorney general serves within the executive branch and argued that presidents are fully entitled to direct priorities involving law enforcement, immigration, drugs, and national security.

“To the extent that President Trump calls me and says that he thinks we have a problem in this country, whether it’s the scourge of drugs, illegal immigration, every American wants him to do that,” Blanche said. “And he should.”

The acting attorney general also dismissed accusations that the DOJ is pursuing politically motivated cases against Trump critics.

“We are absolutely doing nothing but what we should be doing at the Department of Justice,” Blanche said. “I wake up with a very clean conscience every morning.”

The public clash comes amid multiple high-profile investigations involving Trump adversaries.

Most notably, Comey was recently indicted after prosecutors alleged a 2025 Instagram post featuring seashells arranged to form the numbers “86 47” constituted a threat against Trump, the 47th president. Prosecutors argue “86” is commonly understood slang meaning “to eliminate” or “get rid of.”

Blanche defended the case, arguing threats against the president must be treated seriously given recent assassination attempts and escalating political extremism.

Last year, Trump publicly urged then-Attorney General Pam Bondi to pursue prosecutions against Comey, James, and Sen. Adam Schiff, writing on social media that “JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED.”

Blanche declined to discuss private conversations with Trump when asked whether the president personally directed prosecutions.

“But rest assured,” Blanche said, “he has much better, bigger and important things to do than to worry about me doing my job.”

Blanche also turned Democrats’ criticism back against them by pointing to the multiple criminal prosecutions Trump himself faced before returning to office, including cases brought by state prosecutors in New York and Georgia as well as federal investigations overseen by Special Counsel Jack Smith.

“So I welcome criticism. Let’s go,” Blanche said. “But if you’re sitting in a glass house, you ought not throw stones.”
