I believe in independent media. We need more independent researchers and more independent voices, which is why Iāll always root for people doing this work outside the big outlets. That being said, the people doing this work have to genuinely care about the information they put out and about the people receiving it. Otherwise weāre no better than the media conglomerates people come to us to escape.
The Leah Files just sent her midterm predictions to more than 41,000 subscribers, and Iām one of them. As I read through the post, I couldnāt help but notice her numbers were dramatically different from what Iād seen in the FEC filings this week. Her post is missing more than half of James Talaricoās fundraising. It ends by telling readers to look up everything on their ballot at her funding guide before they vote, and that guide says Maineās Democratic Senate nominee āhas reported raising nothingā when the FEC shows heās raised $26.9 million.
On top of that, her maps are missing states. New York and Rhode Island are gone, and āRCā isnāt a real state. They also list people who arenāt on the ballot. Oklahoma says āNuzzell,ā who isnāt running, and Florida says DeSantis, whoās term-limited. Indiana doesnāt even have a governorās race this year, and it says āBritzker.ā Thatās especially dangerous with early voting already underway.
When I asked her about it, she said it was published a few weeks ago, even though the post was only two hours old at the time. Then my note correcting her numbers was gone.
And look, nobody expects any of us to be perfect. Digging through all of these files and keeping everything straight in your head is a really tough job, and I get that more than anyone. But telling your readers to use a website you made before they vote, when itās full of outdated and wrong numbers, is where I draw the line. If independent media is going to be better than the outlets weāre pushing against, we have to get the facts right.

Why are you so obsessed with me?
I got a wife bro...

@realstewpeters will literally do anything for money.
IE put on an entire event for Laura Loomer for Congress. Thank GOD that failed. š
You need Jesus bro. Preaching Judeo-christian values with Larry on stage is something I did NOT expect from you. I also didn't expect for you to be funded by Goldco and to be the biggest imposter on the internet, along with a fake cop, and a fake financial expert, and the great divider in the Charlie Kirk investigation.
YOU are the fed, clearly. I've never seen such an impressive feddish resume. š
Just incredible. You literally can't make this crap up.
šØ STEW PETERS HAS A 25-YEAR PAPER TRAIL OF PRETENDING TO BE SOMEONE HE ISN'T.
FAKE NAME.
FAKE CELEBRITY BROTHER.
FAKE COP.
FAKE INVESTIGATOR.
FAKE FINANCIAL EXPERT.
FAKE COMMENTATOR.
(Receipts in replies)
Arrested twice for impersonating an officer. Lived in a governor's mansion under a fake identity. Had a Minnesota law written around him. Three people dead on a fugitive case his company ran. Bankrolled by a gold company.
Now he has a microphone.
Summer 2000. He calls himself "Coleman Hughes." Says he's the brother of TV and movie actor Jonathan Taylor Thomas. Wants a part in a film Jesse Ventura's son is directing. He moves into the guest room of the Minnesota Governor's Residence. Per the residence manager, housekeepers did his laundry, chefs cooked his meals, and state troopers drove him around.
Room service on the taxpayer's dime.
Then Tyrel Ventura got suspicious. Troopers ran a background check. Impostor. Evicted. In 2002 the Star Tribune exposed it, and he admitted it to the paper, calling it a "wonderful experience."
It wasn't his first costume.
October 1999, Minnesota: arrested and charged with impersonating an officer. Dropped. 2006, Florida: arrested for falsely impersonating an officer, unlawful use of a blue light, and theft with a weapon. Dropped.
Arrested twice. Walked twice.
Then came the bounty hunting. Badge, gun, police dog, a car with police-style markings. Sheriffs started fielding calls about him. In 2015 Minnesota passed a law limiting what bounty hunters can wear and drive, and AP reported it was aimed mostly at him.
A state law written around one man.
May 30, 2017. His company got a tip that a Minnesota fugitive, who skipped court on a felony drug charge and faced charges for assaulting an officer, was at a Texas car dealership. Two Texas bounty hunters working it confronted him. He opened fire. Both bounty hunters and the fugitive died.
Three dead.
2021: he pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct after his wife called police. Probation. The bounty agency folded. The podcast had already launched in 2020. Before all of it, he was a rapper called Fokiss.
Rapper. Celebrity brother. Cop lookalike. Podcaster.
Then came the gold. Starting in April 2022, Goldco signed two sponsorship agreements with his network. Court filings in his Died Suddenly lawsuit say Goldco supplied the majority of the network's annual budget, and $379,000 in documentary money was tied to the Goldco deal. He publicly credited Goldco for making Died Suddenly possible.
The outrage has a sponsor.
In 2023, at least 16 Sinclair TV stations ran Goldco-sponsored segments presenting the former bounty hunter as a financial expert, telling viewers to put their savings in gold through Goldco. Sinclair pulled it. One court filing even claims he texted about hiding his "Goldco sponsorship" money from his ex-wife.
Goldco pays Sean Hannity too. Peters has called Hannity a phony.
So which is it? An asset? A fed? A true believer? Or a paid act with a gold sponsor? One thing is not a theory: Star Tribune, June 19, 2002, Page A16. He admitted it himself.
An impostor of epic proportions.
He faked a name to get in the door.
He dressed like a cop to get the job.
Goldco paid for the microphone.
Facts Over Feelings.
Receipts Over Narratives.

šØ THE ISRAELI GOVERNMENT IS PAYING FOR A NETWORK OF "INDEPENDENT" WEBSITES SPECIFICALLY TO POISON LARGE LANGUAGE MODELS & CHRISTIANS WITH PROPAGANDA. BRAD PARSCALE IS HARD AT WORK BETRAYING AMERICA.
It's written into their own contract, filed with the U.S. Department of Justice.
Clock Tower X LLC is FARA registration #7649, and Brad Parscale signs its filings. Its September 2025 contract lists this deliverable, word for word:
"Deployment of websites and content to deliver GPT framing results on GPT conversations."
In plain English: build websites so that when you ask ChatGPT about Israel, the answer comes back framed their way.
The budget is $1.5 million a month from the client, plus Clock Tower X's own "matching funds." At least 80% of the content is tailored to Gen Z. The messaging is integrated into Salem Media Network, America's biggest Christian radio broadcaster.
Now look at the websites they file with the DOJ as material for the State of Israel:
Justorium. FactSignal. PaxPoint. Allyvia. Cognitura. Culturavia. Innovascope. Econora. StandTogetherForTruth.
They have neutral names and clean designs, and they present themselves as "legal research," "fact checks," "culture" and "economics." That content ends up in the answers your kids get from AI.
One FactSignal page in the filings has a footer called "Friends for Peace" that links the whole network, including a tenth site, CompassionPulse. Directly under it: "This material is distributed by Clock Tower X LLC on behalf of the State of Israel."
And the Christians? Culturavia runs stories on Christians touring Judea and Samaria. Another registered agent of Israel's Foreign Ministry, Show Faith by Works (FARA #7653), named 501 American churches in its DOJ filing and pitches churches a free "Israel Experience."
The newest Clock Tower X contract calls all this a campaign to combat anti-Semitism. Its Oct 21 filing is an article cheering a $235 million Israeli rocket-artillery sale.
Much of the writing carries one byline: Mark Ginsberg, a registered agent of Clock Tower X. One man's work appears across five sites under five different names, so it reads like five separate voices agreeing with each other.
None of this is hidden. It's legal because it's disclosed, in a government database almost nobody reads.
A foreign government is paying Trump's former campaign manager to shape what AI tells Americans, and it's working our churches at the same time.

If this āLeah filesā insider whistle blower has revealed all this dangerous information what is it? Comment below what exactly sheās revealed? Peter thiel invests in the surveillance state? My money was frozen and I was permanently kicked off PayPal in 2019 for no stated reason with no appeal process. That was 7 years ago.
So what exactly is her information? Or is it a persecution script that people latch onto never stopping to ask āso what exactly is the thing she wants to sayā?
My dangerous information? Is that the anti christ is gay and slavery is a choice. I independently compete because I know the monopoly is an illusion. Thatās the danger I pose. My dangerous information is that family is wealth, money is debt, and we are above them.
The reason I backed and still back Shawn Ryanās move to just show her interview is because clarity and transparency is good.
Obfuscation and appeal to emotions is the lie. What he did was good and it showed she appears in my opinion to be a con artist whoās actually just boring and kind of dumb.

Imagine telling @RealCandaceO to show you where your research is wrong or STFU, then Candace offers to come on your podcast to explain it, and you turn it down and claim its because she's not operating in good faith.
Even the Candace haters have to be shaking their heads at this fraud.
I don't have the software anymore that ran my podcast. I don't have a set up for a podcast. I stopped back in May/June after a few episodes bc it wasn't for me, I didn't enjoy it. So the old episodes are up, but nothing else. So I don't have a podcast. I have old episodes up which is not the same thing. You could have messaged me, Amy and I would have been happy to talk to you about it.
I also told someone else I was thinking about her offer and what to do, ie do I want to get everything started back up? But then she posted the gambling post and it is pretty apparent that she is not operating in good faith. If I was a grifter, I'd take her up on this right away, but I am not. So I am thinking about it. Not saying I won't start it back up at some point, but it's not right now. Disappointed in this considering how often we have talked via DM.

Please keep sharing this video widely. Six days after conclusively revealing that Brian Cole Jr. cannot be the J6 b0mber, it may seem we are being ignored, but I can report that "official Washington" is absolutely VERY aware of this video and its implications. That includes MSM outlets, Congress, DOJ, FBI, etc.
@accabbat has updated this to include a couple more of Brian's clothing items with the tags still hanging. On Thursday, I went back into Brian's room to dig around for more clues, and sure enough, I found several more jackets and pullovers with the tags still on them. (Original thread linked in first comment, with our longer "explainer" video.) ā¬ļø

This is positively insane and there is no way that this should be legal.

I have not deleted a single post. Again, your pithy research is wrong.
If it needs reminding, I made one public and TRUE statement on X that I was not prohibited from speaking about any topic on Shawn Ryanās showā including Peter Thiel, who we discussed. My episode aired the week before you went on his show. I made no further public comment nor would I have ever addressed you publicly had you not decided to publicly drag me, question a simply ad read, and refer to me as a shill because you could not comprehend the *private* feedback I gave you on the substack you shared with me.
You should be calling NO ONE a shill. Your entire background is manufactured (contract work for the NSA and CIA, finance and accounting and now a tech expert but never heard of a liability clause or the petrodollar? K.)
It is obvious that you are producing AI-generated substacks based on publicly available information. Nothing you present is new or breaking and for those of us who have spent an entire year working on just ONE story, watching you pop in as a chaos agent to sow unnecessary drama is an annoying deviation.
Iām responding to you because you are now annoying me.
You are not a victim of some deep state attack because you managed to google āwho owns flockā and had a bad interview with someone who saw through your bullshit.
As a bonus, here is the full context of our correspondence which you read aloud at 3am in the morning in a random x space. This is the correspondence that led to your determination that I was a shill. I apologize for not writing you a 2am dissertation on why your article made no sense.
Will state again you are FREE to publish the entire conversation because I have nothing to hide.
Candace, what is your end goal? To destroy an independent researcher and save face because Glacier is a sponsor/advertiser of yours and your audience made note of it? Because they made note of how quickly you involved yourself in something that wasnāt yours to be involved in, then turns out that same person co owns the company that pays you? Thatās a conflict of interest and they are asking you about it. Instead of addressing it, you attack me and my credibility.
That article had been up days before your ad read but you do all this AFTER your ad read.
Then you write a post lying about me, which you have since deleted. Now you are in comments? What did my comment have to do with you? It didnāt. So why comment?
I wish you the best.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Candace Owens has not deleted any posts about Leahfiles or Glacier; her public statements including a direct denial remain visible. Glacier advertises on her podcast and Shawn Ryan co-founded the company behind it.

My full assessment of the Shawn Ryan situation regarding potential whistle blower Leah something.
Iām pretty sure I know Shawn Ryanās actual battle
Austin retweeted
Iām trying to catch up on this Shawn Ryan thing. So this Leah chick is saying itās a massive revelation that Peter thiel is invested in shit? Doesnāt he own all the sneaky companies? Why would Shawn Ryan spend all this time prepping with her what not to say and then just be able to edit it?
Iām not buying her story. Iāve never had anyone ever do that with me and Iām way more controversial than her.
Joe Rogan took down 3 of my episodes because of my homophobia and anti semitism. Seriously thatās what it was at the time.
Her face looks like sheās a liar and I canāt explain it. She may be telling the truth. I just donāt think so.
Shawn Ryan apparently joined a drug gang in Central America for fun which is obviously nuts but he just told people that publicly which is why people know. So thatās not even deceptive since it was a story he told.
Iāve been reading her posts about this secret amazing information that is being censored and thereās nothing new or interesting. People do this all the time.
āThe deep state is censoring meā is now a marketing tactic. I still canāt upload a single video to YouTube. Peter thiels company PayPal still doesnāt let me send someone five dollars. I donāt even care. Iām starting to think people should actually be in digital gulags cuz theyāre such fucking liars.
Just my two cents. But what do I know. My Twitter goes back to 2009 and I was banned for five years. Hers goes back a couple months and her face looks like itās made of wax.
What an embarrassment to the United States of America and directly reflects our society now. Hire based on connection, not merit. Have the paid media shills gaslight the public into thinking she did great and then attack you when you point out that objectively she was awful.

Charlie Kirk is rolling over in his grave as TPUSA coup leaders have people arrested for wrongthink and turn his organization into Greater Israelās propaganda machine.
Austin retweeted
I am completely done dealing with people that are intentionally deceiving good people and discrediting the good work of people in this space. It's a shame to see so many people fall for the distraction. I never would think that "trust me bro" would have gone so far. You all are the ones that make fun of "trust me bros" but here you are, following Mitch Snow all the way out into the middle of the ocean just so he can drown you in secrecy.
Shame on all of you who would ever doubt someone who has never lied, deceived, or been wrong. You can not prove me wrong because I am not wrong. I don't operate off of feelings. I operate STRICTLY on facts.
The fact is that you, all of you that believe Mitch Snow, are blinded by the desire to believe HE has the answer to the story of Charlie Kirks murder when in reality, all he's done is said "trust me bro."
You're marked dude, I hate seeing good people fall into your lying arms. But, like Candace says- lies have an expiration date. I guess they'll just have to wait a few years until you fall out of relevancy.

šØ "ANTISEMITISM" HIT ITS ALL-TIME HIGH IN PRINT. THEN THEY CHANGED THE RULER THEY MEASURE IT WITH.
Google Books, 1990: 1.88 uses per million words.
2022: 3.41.
Record.
Now watch the definition.
2005. Written as a guide for European data collectors.
2016. IHRA adopts it with 11 examples.
7 of the 11 are about Israel.
A country. Not a people.
Dec 2019. Executive Order 13899 wires it into federal civil rights enforcement.
Oct 2023. ADL starts counting protest slogans as antisemitic incidents.
That one rule change added roughly 1,350 incidents to a single year.
May 2024. The House votes 320-91 to write IHRA into Title VI.
Jan 2025. EO 14188 adds visas and deportation to the toolbox.
1,334 governments, schools and organizations have now adopted it.
The man who wrote the first draft, Kenneth Stern, told the Senate it is being weaponized against speech.
(He wrote it.)
Wider net. More fish.
Now the part both sides skip.
The FBI does not use IHRA. It still logged a record 1,938 anti-Jewish hate crimes in 2024.
Real hate went up.
The definition got wider.
Both things are true. Only one of them makes the headline.
So the next time you see "record antisemitism," ask one question.
Record by whose ruler?
Full breakdown on my page. š
The word got bigger.
The rulebook got bigger.
The receipts stayed the same size.
Lobbying should be illegal. Follow the money. Facts Over Feelings. Receipts Over Narratives.
