The Western Journal: Trump Reportedly Convinces Key GOP Rep to Drop Gubernatorial Hopes and Stick with the Plan
Rep. Mike Lawler announced he will seek re-election in New York's 17th Congressional District instead of running for governor. He made the decision after discussions with Donald Trump, who encouraged him to stay in the House to maintain the GOP majority.

The Federalist: Declassified: Obama Ignored Intel Contradicting Russia Hoax
A new intelligence report reveals significant flaws in the 2016 assessment of Russian interference in the U.S. election, indicating that the evidence suggesting Putin preferred Trump over Clinton was weak and largely ignored contrary data. The report criticizes the reliance on the discredited Steele Dossier and highlights that senior CIA officers raised concerns about the integrity of the intelligence.
The findings suggest that the Obama administration, particularly under John Brennan, rushed to produce the intelligence community assessment to politically undermine Trump before his inauguration, despite evidence that Putin did not have a preference for either candidate. This has raised questions about the motivations behind the intelligence assessments used to support the narrative of collusion.
