How Deep State Intel Community, USAID & Stolen Elections are all Connected
Posted on
By Grant Stinchfield
He tapped Bill Pulte to serve as Acting
Director of National Intelligence, and the reaction from the media,
Democrats, and the intelligence establishment tells you everything you
need to know. They are furious.
Why? Because Pulte is doing exactly what many Americans have demanded for years. He’s cleaning house.
Within days of taking over, reports
indicate dozens of employees inside the Office of the Director of
National Intelligence were either fired or sent packing as the
administration moves to shrink what President Trump has called a bloated
intelligence bureaucracy.
And here’s the kicker. Almost immediately,
anti-Pulte leaks started pouring out of the intelligence community. The
same people who claim to be defending democracy are running to the
media to undermine the man tasked with reforming their agency. If there
was ever proof that the swamp still exists, this is it.
To me, those leaks are not an argument against Bill Pulte. They’re the strongest argument for him.
The intelligence community was never
supposed to operate as an independent power center. It exists to serve
the American people, not protect itself. Yet every time someone comes
along promising accountability, downsizing, and reform, the knives come
out.
The media says Pulte is dangerous.
Democrats say he’s unqualified. Washington insiders are panicking.
Frankly, that makes me like the appointment even more.
Today, we break down why Bill Pulte may be
exactly the deep state slayer President Trump was looking for, why the
leaks prove the purge is necessary, and why the intelligence
establishment is terrified of what could come next.
April 5 marked the 32nd anniversary of former Nirvana lead singer Kurt Cobain’s death, supposedly from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
This past year, an unofficial private sector team of forensic
scientists that put fresh eyes on Cobain’s autopsy and the crime scene
material concluded
that Cobain’s death actually resulted from a homicide. A Utah
investigator who also recently reviewed the case says he has new
evidence that shows that Kurt Cobain was murdered. [1]
Much suspicion surrounds Cobain’s former wife, Courtney Love, who has
known ties to U.S. intelligence and is also known to have connections
to the Jeffrey Epstein sex-trafficking network that operated as part of
an intelligence-blackmail operation.
Southern Air Transport: CIA Airline to Les Wexner’s Clothing and Drug-Cover Plane
In 2019, veteran CNN and Vanity Fair reporter Vicky Ward published an opinion
piece stating that the U.S. prosecutor for the Florida area in 2007,
Alex Acosta, said he offered Jeffrey Epstein a plea deal at that time
because “I was told Epstein ‘belonged to intelligence’ and to leave it
alone.”
The Intercept reporter Ryan Grim, Murtaza Hussain, and Harrison Berger documented
how the Central Intelligence Agency owned Southern Air Transport cargo
airline for more than a decade before being caught using the airline in
the early 1980s to ship weapons to Iran, with Israel as the go-between.
Grim et al. noted Epstein worked with various Iran-Contra figures
while U.S. intelligence used weapons sales to help arm the Contra rebel
army fighting the leftist Nicaraguan government.
When Associated Press and Newsweek reporter Robert Parry and San Jose Mercury News journalist Gary Webb
printed articles on how the CIA helped the Contras ship cheap cocaine
to the U.S. to fund their war in Nicaragua, it became known as the
Iran-Contra Cocaine scandal.
Many newspapers then published articles on how Southern Air Transport shipped cocaine from the Nicaraguan Contras to the United States.[2]
The American Conservative reporter Harrison Berger detailed how
this scandal led Southern Air Transport to rebrand itself and move its
headquarters from Miami, Florida to Columbus, Ohio, by 1995.
Changing its name to Southern Air, it started shipping clothing from
China, instead of cocaine, on behalf of Ohio-based fashion and retail
mogul Leslie Wexner and his “L Companies” retail chains that included
The Limited and Victoria’s Secret.[3]
Nonetheless, London’s The Independent questioned whether
Southern Air sustained its CIA work as it was flying to Somalia and
Kenya in the 1990s, reportedly doing “charitable work,” with the newspaper saying “the CIA has always been willing to use aid operations as a cover.”
Jeffrey Epstein, Wexner, Israeli Intelligence and Sex Trafficking
Jeffrey Epstein worked as
Wexner’s financial manager from the 1980s onward, after having worked
with John Stanley Pottinger, the attorney for Cyrus Hashemi, an Iranian
banker who the Senate Foreign Relations Committee found planned the Iran
arms shipping deals with Pottinger.
Grim et al. reported that Epstein
links to Middle East shenanigans also included obtaining an Austrian
passport with a false name and address in Saudi Arabia. They further
quoted former Israeli intelligence officer Ari Ben-Menashe on media
mogul and Member of Parliament Robert Maxwell laundering Iran weapons
profits through Maxwell companies’ accounts.
Ari Ben-Menashe, a senior executive of Israel’s Directorate of Intelligence from 1977 to 1987, told award-winning
CBS News Executive Producer Zev Shalev that Maxwell’s daughter
Ghislaine and Jeffrey Epstein started working for Israeli intelligence
in the 1980s, and were “entrapping politicians
with minors.” With the Justice Department protecting Epstein for
decades, U.S. and Israeli intelligence appeared to join forces in this
effort.
Epstein later ran logistics with Southern Air Transport and was reported to have posed as a “talent scout” for Wexner’s Victoria’s Secret, later recruiting victims for his sex-trafficking ring.
New York Times reporter James B. Stewart said that Epstein
told him he had “dirt on powerful people,” including their “recreational
drug use,” in his homes, where his film cameras were set up. That
information, along with articles and books since, supports the belief
that Jeffrey Epstein and his cohorts ran a huge blackmail operation for
U.S. and Israeli intelligence.[4]
Courtney Love, Epstein, MK-ULTRA and Evidence of Love’s “Handling” by U.S. Intelligence?
Jeffrey Epstein had a house manager, Alfredo Rodriguez, who stole his “black book” of names and contact numbers from his apartment.
For a law firm representing victims, Rodriguez circled key people as
potential “material witnesses” to crimes against underage girls.
Courtney Love was one of the only women among 46 other names circled, out of hundreds of names in the book.[5]
A previous CovertAction Magazinearticle presented evidence of Courtney Love’s bizarre life-long links to U.S. intelligence that included her biological father Hank Harrison saying
Steven O’Leary sent him a letter on his deathbed admitting that he
worked for U.S. intelligence in Ireland in 1981 when he had sex with
Courtney and took her to England, with his brother, Kevin O’Leary.
Various authors, such as Ian Halperin and Max Wallace, have noted how
Courtney Love brought “a thousand hits of very strong acid” [LSD] to
the up-and-coming Liverpool music scene.[6]
This duplicated the actions of the CIA’s
MK-ULTRA Assistant Director Robert Lashbrook, who directed agents to
get LSD into as many musicians’ hands as possible in early 1965.[7]
In the 1980s and 1990s, Courtney Love proceeded to distribute acid,
pain pills and other drugs at various punk music venues throughout the
U.S. and had been married to a top political punk musician in Los
Angeles, before marrying the top political punk musician in Seattle.[8]
Media paparazzi filmed Courtney Love hanging out with SharkTank’s Kevin O’Leary in 2015, suggesting she was being “handled” (manipulated) by him, as CIA documents on other MK-ULTRA subjects reported being in the past (often with drugs, trauma and hypnosis).[9]
Radical Cobain Manipulated to Promote Heroin to “Sedate and Divide” the Masses?
The CIA’s Project MK-ULTRA spent vast sums of money promoting dozens
of “drugs to sedate and divide the masses,” as former U.S. Attorney
General Ramsey Clark stated in 1991.[10]
In 1979, the CIA’s asset Gulbuddin Hekmatyar
started the fake “Muslim Brotherhood” in the “Golden Crescent” of opium
around Afghanistan, which a top researcher, Professor Peter Dale Scott, detailed having supplied to the U.S. with an ever-increasing amount of heroin and other opiates.
While actively involved in heroin promotion, Courtney Love came into Kurt Cobain’s life as his band Nirvana’s Nevermind album was soaring up the sales charts, eventually reaching more than 30 million albums sold.
Friends reported Courtney became pregnant with Kurt’s child after a
few dates, and that she led Kurt to use heroin daily for the first time
“to control him,” saying “she’s very sophisticated that way.”[11]
Overall, the rate of long-term heroin users increased almost ten
percent annually from 1990 to 1995, at the height of Nirvana’s
popularity.[12]
Cobain’s radical politics included anti-war, anti-racism, and
anti-corporate media messages; he stated he originally wanted to put
“all kinds of anarchistic, revolutionary essays and diagrams about how
to make your own bomb,” in his Nevermind liner notes.[13]
New Forensic Team Receives International Coverage from Key People Saying Cobain Was Murdered
In February 2026, Newsweekmagazine was one of dozens of mainstream publications in the U.S. and abroad
to announce that “An independent research team has published a fresh
critique of the 1994 ruling that Kurt Cobain died by suicide, arguing
the evidence is more consistent with a staged homicide.”
After obtaining a copy of the autopsy, researcher Michelle Wilkins
organized an independent investigation team that included veteran
forensic scientist Bryan R Burnett and five other experts from the U.S.
and Italy, and published their findings in the International Journal of Forensic Sciences.
The new forensic Cobain case evidence
cited “necrosis of the brain and liver,” which “happens in an
overdose,” not a “shotgun death,” Cobain’s purported suicide method.
They also cited
no blood splatter on Cobain’s hands and “ten times the normal amount
[of heroin] even a heavy heroin user would have used,” in Cobain’s
system.
With valium also found during autopsy, it is possible that someone
used that drug to debilitate Cobain enough to convince him to shoot him
up with an overly pure amount of heroin (street heroin has a 10-15% purity), or help them hold him down for the heroin injections.[14]
The new investigation findings supported an earlier, similar
conclusion by Cyril Wecht, MD, a former president of the American
Academy of Forensic Sciences, who told CBS Channel 2 News in Pittsburgh that he thought Cobain’s death was “a homicide” and “a staged suicide.”
New Reports of Cobain’s Home Support Love’s Aid in U.S. Intelligence Murder Scheme
The aforementioned CovertAction MagazineCobain article detailed Eldon “El Duce” Hoke stating that
he declined Courtney Love’s offer of $50,000 to shoot Cobain, and how a
train fatally hit Hoke after he stated knowing that Allen Wrench took
that offer.
That article also detailed Seattle Police Detective Antonio Terry
disobeying his superior’s orders not to investigate Cobain’s death as a homicide when he spent a hundred hours trying to find the source of the heroin in Cobain’s system.[15]
Det. Terry was then murdered—the first Seattle officer murdered in nine years, which remains unsolved, though Terry reported being recognized as a cop by the murderers, before he died.
Michelle Wilkins described
her findings of how Courtney Love hired several domestic male employees
and supplied them with heroin, which led to some nine people living at,
or constantly around, Cobain’s home at the time of his death.
Wilkins called
these people “Courtney’s flying monkeys.” They included security guard
Rene Navarrette, Love’s bandmate Eric Erlandson, Michael “Cali” DeWitt
and Jessica Hopper, with Wilkins stating the latter two were groomed
since they were 15 years old, which may allude to why Love would be
valuable for Jeffrey Epstein’s work.[16]
Wilkins further claimed that Courtney Love worked as an “informant” for the Seattle Police Department’s Det. Terry, as supported by recordings made of Love. Informant is a term often used by U.S. intelligence to diminish their work as an actual agent for intelligence.
Eyewitness Memoir; Ex-Seattle Police Captain Reports Cobain Murdered; Love Implicates CIA
An eyewitness named Josef Burns published a 50-page paperback account, To Kurt, I’m Sorry,
describing him seeing several people, including heroin addict Dylan
Carlson, knocking Kurt Cobain nearly unconscious before shooting him up
with two pre-filled syringes of heroin.
Burns also gave a videotaped statement describing Carlson and his companion doing something else to get Cobain in a daze, before pushing him up to the greenhouse.[17]
In the written account, Burns, who was a member of a Seattle band and
also dealt heroin, said he then saw these individuals drag Cobain out
of the house to the greenhouse, above the garage, where Burns heard a
shotgun blast and where Cobain’s body was eventually found.[18]
N
Of further significance, retired Seattle Police Captain Neil Low has stated that he watched the documentary film on Cobain’s death, Soaked in Bleach,
which motivated him to re-examine all the evidence of the Cobain death
case that year and to eventually give interviews from 2024 to 2026 detailingwhy he believes Cobain was murdered.
And finally, popular podcaster Candace Owens reported in November 2025, that Courtney Love, knowing that Owens liked the book CHAOS, about the CIA’s Project MK-ULTRA, stated that the CIA’s MK-ULTRA manipulated her and was behind Kurt Cobain’s murder.
Many called Kurt Cobain “the John Lennon of his generation,” and both
musical icons were manipulated into inadvertently promoting drugs, and
then seemingly murdered when they threatened to promote sobriety and
leftist politics.[19]
U.S intelligence fingerprints of its interconnected agenda can be
seen on the Iran-Contra Cocaine scandal, Jeffrey Epstein’s pedophile and
blackmail network, and Cobain’s death.
Imran Khan, a cricketeer, a socialite, a ladies
man, quite attractive, a philanthropist, a politician, loyal Pakistani,
was couped by the US via Antony Blinken for his rebuilding of Pakistan and his distaste for war.
August 2023, The Intercept published a leaked directive which said that “all
will be forgiven in Washington” if he (Khan) was removed in the
no-confidence motion and indicated the possibility of economic and
political isolation if he stayed. The reason? Pakistan’s relationship
with Russia and China.
Despite the major charges against Imran Khan being found illegal he
remains in solitary confinement. The charges have to do with gifts he
retained ‘and disclosed.’ Khan was replaced by Shehbaz Sharif
who is the lead negotiator between Iran and the US. Sharif has a
history of racketeering, money laundering, theft, and a period of exile.
He ran for office against Khan and received 96 votes. When the US
military decided Khan was unfriendly to the West, they created false
charges against him and bribed Sharif – all his misdeeds would be
forgiven if he helped oust Khan and assume the role under the thumb of
the CIA while distancing from Russia and China.
Sharif is to Pakistan what Milei is to Argentina. Khan was to
Pakistan what Saddam was to Iraq. Khan was and is very much beloved by
his people. The US wants Khan to die in prison.
The US war against Pakistan began in 2004 under Bush using drone
warfare in conjunction with the Air Force and CIA. Thousands of
civilians were killed. It ended in 2018 when Khan took office.
What does Pakistan have that attracts US CIA operatives? Resources.
Worth $6 trillion on the open market. These untapped resources include
copper, gold, coal, gemstones, rare earths, lithium, cobalt, limestone,
rock salt, and vast agriculture lands with deposits of black soil. While
Trump has heavily pushed Pakistan to allow the US military to establish
a base there in return for cutting-edge military technology, Sharif has
refused. And Trump doesn’t have the inventory to sell.
It appears the only countries that want to pursue weapons and war are of the Western bloc.
Justice System of America
ISIS Leader in Syria, Ali Husayn al-Ulaywi, has been
killed via a US airstrike… There is no identifiable ISIS commander by
that name anywhere across Google. If he was the leader of ISIS he would
have a profile. But then, ISIS was already defeated and there has been
no presence since January 2026 after being defeated by the US/Israel
installed al Qaeda leader, Jolani, as Syrian President.
FBI claims to have captured most wanted fraudster Herbert Leon
Kimble. Actually, the Philippines captured Kimble and extradited him to
the US. Patel is taking credit and the Philippines will thus not receive
the reward as offered.
Gen. Chris Donahue, commander of U.S. Army Europe and Africa and the
famous “last soldier” to depart Afghanistan in 2021, has abruptly
submitted his retirement papers. His work was coordinated with the CIA
in Syria and then Ukraine. No reason has been cited and he will retire
within the week.
Wounded soldiers from the Iran War are declaring Hegseth lied. While
Hegseth declared that of the ‘400’ injured service members, their
injuries were minor and all have returned to service. Some of those
soldiers are now crying foul! Chief Warrant Officer, Rodney Bearman, was
riddled with shrapnel by a drone, suffering vision and hearing loss,
damage to his lungs, and a concussion. The army classified his injuries
as ‘non-serious.’ Bearman and 20 others hit
the same time claim the military has not classified them as war
casualties. Playing down what Americans already know – every major
agency in the federal government LIES pathologically.
The drone strike incident that hit Bearman and his compatriots is
being investigated as they were left completely unprotected. Six service
members died in that attack. Bearman is still in the hospital four
months after the attack. He had to ‘requisition’ to be placed in a
soldier recovery unit.
Trump has claimed he is a superstar in the military ranks, ‘they love
me’ is his fanfare. However, allowing Hegseth to treat soldiers in such
a disgraceful manner while Trump wants PTSD soldiers housed in mental
institutions is not going to give him the clout he needs to succeed in a
third term crisis event. Allies have disappeared. When Generals and
soldiers leave, America runs the risk of becoming fodder for a foreign
or even internal civil coup.
The ONLY soldiers who tolerate Hegseth are among the younger
troops. By contrast, he is WIDELY criticized by generals and seasoned
officers. Why? Because he is a dolt with no intelligence training and an
IQ on par with AOC.
