EXCLUSIVE: An FBI Informant Said Trump is Compromised by Israel. Headline USA Knows the Informant’s Identity

The Justice Department has released 3 million new files about deceased sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein. Among those documents is an explosive allegation from an FBI informant: that President Donald Trump is compromised by Israel.

Headline USA can reveal the FBI informant’s identity: Charles Johnson, a controversial figure with a long history in the right-wing movement. Though the report in the Epstein files is redacted, Headline USA has independently obtained a separate FBI report featuring allegations made by Johnson when he was an FBI informant. The two reports are from the same field office, contain similar details, and have the same source ID: 00099701.

FBI memo concludes Trump ‚compromised‘ by Israel, new Epstein Files show

A declassified FBI memo released on 30 January states that US President Donald Trump was “compromised by Israel,” that Jeffrey Epstein was a Mossad agent, and that a Jewish religious movement, Chabad Lubavitch, had coopted Trump’s presidency.

The FBI memo was written in 2020 as part of an investigation into improper domestic or foreign influence over the US electoral process.

It is based on information from a confidential human source (CHS) for the bureau and is among more than three million Epstein-related files released by the Justice Department on Friday.

Federal officers use crowd control munitions as demonstrators protest outside Portland ICE building

The union-organized protest began several blocks from the Portland ICE building and included a march through the city’s South Waterfront neighborhood. During the march, sometime after 4 p.m., some protesters crowded the immigration building’s driveway, blocking a security gate that leads into the facility.

Federal officers stationed at the ICE building deployed tear gas that drifted through the air, traveling several blocks and into the larger crowd of demonstrators made up of families, including children and elderly people. Many held signs that read “Immigrants are not Criminals Our President Is!!” and “ICE Out of Our Communities,” but were forced to scatter after they were hit by the thick chemical mist.

Photos: Thousands once again protest ICE in Minneapolis and across the U.S.

For the second week in a row, thousands of people in downtown Minneapolis marched to protest the presence of immigration enforcement agents in their city. Demonstrations were also organized in other U.S. cities, including Los Angeles, Boston, New York, and Portland, Maine.

These protests came after the Department of Justice announced a civil rights probe into the shooting death of Minneapolis resident and ICU nurse Alex Pretti but not of Renee Macklin Good, a 37-year-old mother of three who was shot and killed by an ICE agent on January 7.

Minneapolis Residents Wear Their Passports, Desperate to Ward Off ICE

In the past two months, federal immigration agents have arrested thousands in the Twin Cities, detaining citizens, asylum-seekers, refugees and the undocumented. They have killed two American citizens, Renee Good and Alex Pretti. And they have stopped people seemingly at random, asking for identification or simply demanding: “Where were you born?”

Now, many people here are asking a question that is a novel one in America: Is it safe to leave home without proof of citizenship? Has the United States turned into a show-me-your-papers nation?

For many Minnesotans, the answer has been an unequivocal yes.

They were asylum seekers and refugees in Minnesota. Still, ICE detained and flew them to Texas to face deportation

The refugees come from countries such as Somalia, Ethiopia, Afghanistan, Syria, El Salvador, Venezuela and Russia, Ball Cooper said. They entered the US legally but cannot apply for permanent status until a year after they’ve been admitted to the country, as required under US law. Ball Cooper and other advocates have been in touch with some of those refugees, who they say have not been charged with crimes or immigration violations that would leave them open to removal proceedings.

ICE claim that a man shattered his skull running into wall triggers tension at a Minnesota hospital

The explanation from ICE is an example of recent run-ins between immigration officers and health care workers that have contributed to mounting friction at Minneapolis hospitals. Workers at the Hennepin County facility say ICE officers have restrained patients in defiance of hospital rules and stayed at their sides for days. The agents have also lingered around the campus and pressed people for proof of citizenship.

Takeaways from AP report on ICE claims that immigrant shattered his skull running into wall

According to his lawyers, Castañeda Mondragón entered the U.S. in 2022 with valid immigration documents. Minnesota incorporation filings show he founded a company called Castaneda Construction the following year with an address listed in St. Paul. He appears to have no criminal record.

His lawyers told a court that Castañeda Mondragón was racially profiled during the crackdown, and that officers determined only after his arrest that he had overstayed his visa.

“He was a brown-skinned, Latino Spanish speaker at a location immigration agents arbitrarily decided to target,” his lawyers wrote in a petition seeking his release from ICE custody.

The Interview – ‘A Terrifying Line Is Being Crossed’: Mayor Jacob Frey on the Turmoil in Minneapolis

We’ve got 600 police officers. They have between 3,000 and 4,000 federal agents. They are saying, and I’m hopeful that they are being honest and candid, that those numbers will be significantly drawn down. They are saying that the way that ICE and Border Patrol have been conducting themselves will change dramatically. So not these marauding gangs of guys just walking down the street indiscriminately picking people up, but having more of a targeted operation. This is not about ICE doing regular ICE stuff. What we have seen feels like an invasion.

Leaked DHS Memo Reveals ICE Claiming Expansive New Warrantless Arrest Powers

Stanford University political scientist Tom Clark questioned the validity of the memo, which appears to directly conflict with the Fourth Amendment of the US Constitution, which requires search warrants as a protection against “unreasonable searches and seizures.”

“So, here’s how the law works,” he wrote. “People on whom it imposes constraints don’t get to just write themselves a memo saying they don’t have to follow the law. Maybe I’ll write myself a memo saying that I don’t have to pay my taxes this year.”

Mike Johnson told not to count on Dems‘ votes to end shutdown

Democrats are hesitant to vote for the package because it contains a two-week stopgap funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security that lacks reform measures for ICE or Customs and Border Protection.

Senate Democrats were split almost evenly on the measure in a Friday night vote, with the 23 Democrats who voted for it facing swift backlash from progressive groups who accused them of essentially voting to fund ICE.

JEREMY CORBYN will be elected parliamentary leader for Your Party if his slate wins the central executive committee election next month, his allies say.

If the list of candidates headed by the former Labour Party leader, called The Many, clinch the nomination on February 26, Zarah Sultana’s “parliamentary convener” model would not see the light of day.

Sorgenkind in Garching: Forschungsreaktor ohne Forschung

(January 12, 2026)

Wie kürzlich aus der Antwort des Wissenschaftsministeriums auf eine Anfrage der Grünen im bayerischen Landtag hervorging, warten die Garchinger schon seit fast 13 Jahren auf einen neuen Zentralkanal. Er war 2013 als regulär zu wechselndes Ersatzteil bestellt und sollte im Herbst 2014 geliefert werden, hieß es in der Antwort des Ministeriums.

Genehmigung der Bestrahlungsanlage zur Produktion von Molybdän-99

(August 18, 2022)

Weltweit werden jährlich mehr als 30 Millionen medizinische Untersuchungen mit der radioaktiven Substanz Technetium-99m zur Diagnose von Tumoren durchgeführt. Einen großen Anteil – etwa drei Millionen Untersuchungen – daran hat Deutschland. Zur Herstellung von Technetium-99m wird zunächst Molybdän-99 benötigt. Dieses kann international in nur wenigen Forschungsreaktoren (vier in Europa sowie jeweils einer in Afrika und Australien) hergestellt werden, es kommt deshalb seit Jahren immer wieder zu Engpässen. Fällt eine dieser Quellen aus, müssen die unter Umständen lebenswichtigen Untersuchungen verschoben werden. Aufgrund der kurzen Halbwertszeiten von nur 66 Stunden kann Molybdän-99 nicht auf Vorrat produziert werden, sondern nur unmittelbar vor der Untersuchung.
