![On October 3, 2025, Secretary Noem spoke to agents at the Broadview facility before
they began their shift. She said:
When we leave here, we’re going to go hard. We’re going to
hammer these guys who are advocating for violence against the
American people. What they are doing is advocating to harm not
just you and your colleagues but your families and they’re doxing
your identities and victimizing people every day by the way that
they’re talking, speaking, who they’re affiliated with, who they’re
funded with, and what they’re talking about as far as consequences
for what we’re doing by protecting this country. So we’re going to
go out there and we’re going to make sure that there’s
consequences for the way that they’re behaving, and then we’re
going to prosecute them. We’re going to bring them to justice.
We’re not taking this anymore. . . . We’re going to give you guys
all the authority that you need to arrest these individuals who are
advocating for violence against you.

status/1974174065985470970. Bovino followed up by telling the agents:
You’re going to be put in full effect . . . That crowd there is, is an
unsafe crowd on either side. . . . And when they resist, what
happens? They get arrested. So it’s now going to be a free arrest
zone. And, I’ll give them one warning that that’ll be for safety of,
of us and the Secretary to leave. So they’re getting it here as soon
as we leave.
Id. Secretary Noem finished by stating, “[m]ake sure that these individuals are not allowed to
conduct this kind of activity anymore.” Id.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:bbp2b224lro3bfnzcqwwnkfo/bafkreig2d3dv5uenevfeysdwtzufmkdzaesuprpyomamh3fmnnaq3xq3se@jpeg)

1) It appears Western intelligence services have decided to let Witkoff (and Trump) know they have recordings of their traitorous conversations w/Russia.
2) This Ukraine "deal" was all Witkoff's idea.
3) Congressional leaders should demand he be fired.

Witkoff Advised Russia on How to Pitch Ukraine Plan to Trump
US presidential envoy Steve Witkoff, fresh from the triumph of the Gaza peace deal, held a phone call last month with a senior Kremlin official to suggest they work together on a similar plan for Ukraine — and that Vladimir Putin should raise it with Donald Trump.
