Fellow truth-seekers and shadow-watchers, today we crack open the vault on a bombshell FOIA release from the Department of Defense Office of Inspector General (DoD OIG). This isn’t your run-of-the-mill paperwork; it’s a window into the dark underbelly of military and government ops, closing the lid on probes that span corruption, reprisals, and high-profile names that could shake the foundations of power. Acquired through insider networks, this dossier reveals investigations shuttered in 2021 and 2022 – many redacted to hell, but the visible threads weave a tale of systemic rot.

THE FOIA BOMBSHELL: REQUEST AND RELEASE TIMELINE

Requested on December 20, 2022, under case number DODOIG-2023-000288, this trove didn’t see daylight until staggered drops: first on May 26, 2023 (interim), then finalized on June 13, 2025. Posted for the elite few on December 30, 2025. Sourced directly from DoD OIG’s FOIA Requester Service Center in Alexandria, VA – no middlemen, pure raw intel.

The OIG’s own words: “This response is limited to those records that are subject to the requirements of the FOIA.” Translation? They’re hiding the real nukes under exemptions for law enforcement and national security. Congress’s get-out-of-jail-free card via 5 U.S.C. 552(c). But what slipped through? Enough to connect dots on reprisals, fraud, and elite cover-ups.

KEY PLAYERS EXPOSED: HIGH-PROFILE PROBES

Dig into the meat – a roster of closed cases that name names. These aren’t low-level grunts; we’re talking flag officers, political appointees, and contractors with tentacles in the machine.

• Michael Thomas Flynn: Case 20170321-043065-CASE-01, closed 1/27/2021. The former National Security Advisor under scrutiny – reprisal? Influence peddling? The shadows whisper of deeper ties to foreign ops.
• Ronny Lynn Jackson: Case 20180522-051589-CASE-01, shut down 3/3/2021. White House doc turned Congressman – medical misconduct or something juicier involving VIP health secrets?
• Ronnie J. Booth: Wrapped up 3/24/2021 (20190111-055755-CASE-01). Auditor General? Smells like financial funny business in the Pentagon’s books.
• Brett J. Goldstein: Closed 6/16/2021 (20200324-063825-CASE-01). Tech ties? Cyber shenanigans or procurement scams?
• Unknown Subjects: Redacted under (b)(6) and (b)(7)(C) – personal privacy shields for the untouchables. Cases like 20210107-068915-CASE-01 (10/21/2021) and the infamous “J6R” probe (11/16/2021) – January 6 ripple effects? Capitol chaos bleeding into DoD?
• James Branham: Sealed 6/8/2022 (20200817-066471-CASE-01). Military brass or contractor? The silence is deafening.
• Sean Scott Buck: Admiral-level? Closed 9/30/2022 (20210419-070781-CASE-01). Naval command scandals?
• Jonathan Edins Howerton: Final nail on 12/8/2022 (20200115-062519-CASE-01). Insider trading or whistleblower takedown?

These are just the tip – many masked as “(b)(6), (b)(7)(C)”. Foreseeable harm standard applied per DoDM 5400.07: They reviewed age, content, character… and still blacked out the juicy bits.

REPRISAL RAMPAGE: WHISTLEBLOWER CRACKDOWNS

Page after page of “Reprisal” cases – the DoD’s favorite tool for silencing dissent. Under codes like PPD-19, 2409, 1587, 1034, and even IG Act specifics:

• Dozens closed from 1/13/2021 to 12/15/2022. Examples:
• 20170914-046986-CASE-02 (1/13/2021): PPD-19 – Security clearance revocations?
• 20200123-062678-CASE-01 (9/26/2022): 1034 Restriction – Comms lockdown on leakers?
• 20201124-068294-CASE-01 (12/15/2022): 2409 Reprisal – Personnel actions against truth-tellers.

This screams coordinated suppression. Whistleblowers from senior officials to rank-and-file – reprisals for exposing waste, abuse, or worse. OPR couldn’t even generate a list by closure date? Convenient electronic “impossibility” – or deliberate obfuscation?

CRIMINAL UNDERWORLD: FRAUD, THEFT, AND CONTRACTOR CARTELS

The DCIS (Defense Criminal Investigative Service) drops hit hardest. Regular investigations into theft, kickbacks, TRICARE scams, and arms proliferation:

• General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT): Closed 3/4/2021 – Conflict of Interest, Financial. Billions in contracts, insider deals?
• AMC Military Provisions: 3/9/2021 – Counterproliferation, Dual-Use Items. Exporting tech to adversaries?
• Advanced Sterilization Products (Under Seal): 3/11/2021 – TRICARE Fraud, Health Care Facility. Tainted supplies to troops?
• Redacted gems like “(b)(6),(b)(7)(C) et al.” for procurement kickbacks, nonconforming products, and government charge card misuse.

Categories galore: Theft/Larceny/Embezzlement, Procurement Substitution, Arms/Ammo/Explosives, Pay & Allowance Fraud. Open dates stretch back to 2014 – some festered for years before “closure.” Why now? Cover for bigger ops?

Additional exemptions in the final release: (b)(7)(E) for investigative techniques. They’re protecting the playbook – how they spy, probe, and prosecute.

THE DEEPER CONSPIRACY: WHAT’S HIDDEN?

This isn’t random bureaucracy. Note the components: DCIS for crimes, AI for senior officials and whistleblowers, OPR stonewalling. Pending reviews with “other agencies” – CIA? NSA? The inter-agency web suggests cross-pollination of intel.

High-profile closures align with political shifts: Flynn post-Trump, Jackson’s rise, J6 echoes. Reprisals spike amid COVID-era mandates and election fallout. Fraud cases tie to endless wars – contractors like GDIT profiting off chaos.

Appeal options listed: FOIA Appellate Authority, OGIS mediation. But real power lies in the shadows. Contact points like foiarequests@dodig.mil or Barbara Gonzalez – but tread carefully; they’re watching.

FINAL DECODE: IMPLICATIONS FOR THE SHADOW STATE

This leak exposes the DoD’s self-policing as a farce. Closed cases = buried scandals. Reprisals protect the elite; fraud fuels the machine. In a world of endless surveillance, these redactions hide the real threats: Not foreign enemies, but internal corruption eroding from within.

Stay vigilant. More drops incoming. Share discreetly – the matrix is closing in.

End of Transmission. Burn after reading.
