DISCLAIMER: The following post details serious allegations of civil rights violations, criminal activity, and witness tampering made by a third party, Staci Burk, on X. The screenshot accompanied her Tweet. These claims, which involve high-profile individuals and organizations, are presented here for informational and reporting purposes only. All individuals mentioned are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law. The views and accusations expressed are those of the source and do not necessarily reflect the official position of this platform.
They thought they could turn Staci Burk into a convenient patsy for their “fifth-generation warfare” psyop. They believed they could gaslight her into looking “crazy” and bully her into silence through intimidation.
They were wrong.
If you’re just catching up, this story sounds like a political thriller, but for Staci Burk, it’s a series of alleged civil rights nightmares. Here is the situation from her perspective:
Back in late 2020, a high-level team including “General” Michael Flynn, attorney Sidney Powell, and a former NSA hacker named Jim Penrose were allegedly desperate to get their hands on voting machines in Arizona. Staci claims they tried to trick her into using her own legal case to subpoena those machines based on a story that turned out to be fake. When she realized what was happening and refused to help them, the situation reportedly turned from political pressure to physical danger.
The Heist: Armed Robbery and Data Theft
Staci alleges that when she stopped being useful to them, the team—specifically a group called the First Amendment Praetorian (1AP)—targeted her to cover their tracks. She says two armed men showed up at her house claiming to be a “government security detail.” While she was actually on the phone with an Arizona Senator, she claims these men forcefully snatched her iPhone out of her hands. That phone was then allegedly taken to the Willard Hotel in D.C., where Penrose used high-tech tools to copy her data and wipe away anything that proved the team’s involvement in these illegal schemes.
The “Jane Doe” Smokescreen
Beyond the theft, Staci describes a sophisticated campaign of “gaslighting.” She says the team and their media contacts tried to convince the public—and even Staci herself for a time—that she was a secret whistleblower known as “Jane Doe” in Sidney Powell’s lawsuits. In reality, the team allegedly knew the “Jane Doe” was someone else entirely. By confusing the facts and feeding a false story to major news outlets like ProPublica, Staci claims they successfully tricked the media into ignoring the real story: a series of crimes including armed robbery and kidnapping.
Weaponizing Media Narratives
The confusion over who was the real “Jane Doe” whistleblower wasn’t just a clerical error; according to Staci, it was a calculated move to create a smokescreen. For a long time, major media outlet ProPublica identified Staci as the secret witness behind Sidney Powell’s election affidavits. Staci claims she was actually gaslit into believing this was her role by team members who were constantly feeding her false information.
In reality, the person who actually signed the Jane Doe affidavit was a woman named Sabrina Keliikoa—a fact Staci says the team knew all along.
This identity swap was a brilliant, if sinister, way to protect the operation. By letting the media focus on Staci as a “confused” or “unreliable” whistleblower, the team effectively discredited her. It’s a classic tactic: if you can make a witness look like a conspiracy theorist who doesn’t even know her own name, no one will listen when she tries to report a serious crime like armed robbery. The “Jane Doe” drama kept the press busy arguing over paperwork instead of investigating the fact that Staci’s phone had allegedly been stolen and scrubbed.
Ultimately, this mix-up provided a shield for the more dangerous work being done by Penrose and the 1AP team. It turned a high-stakes story about data theft, illegal voting machine access, and civil rights violations into a much smaller, messier story about “flaky witnesses.” By the time the dust settled, the real crimes—like the alleged armed robbery at Staci’s home and the forensic extraction of her data at the Willard Hotel—were buried under a mountain of media misinformation.
Analysis: A Plan To Overthrow The Government & Throw Trump Under The Bus If It Failed
The bigger picture, in my analysis, is even more chilling. It seems the goal was to create so much chaos and doubt about the 2020 election that it would trigger martial law, keeping Trump in office and making Flynn the ultimate power broker. Flynn allegedly built a network based on loyalty and fear to pull this off. The genius of the plan was that if it failed, they had already set it up so that the media would blame Trump for everything, while the people actually pulling the strings—like Penrose—remained in the shadows, even lecturing today as “security experts.”
Quote:
“Former NSA cyberhacker Jim Penrose (who tried but FAILED to manufacture evidence to use to secure a FISA warrant to gain access to the Maricopa County Election Center in Arizona–for access to voting machines and paper ballots– by first attempting to exploit me via an inchoate fraudulent scheme advancing a fabricated story pushed by their team asset Kenneth Scott Koch on or around November 17, 2020, then the first week of December 2020, successfully with the support of the First Amendment Praetorian (“1AP”) team, gained access to voting machines in a hotel room with a towel stuffed under the door in Antrim County, MI, and then FAILED, but attempted, to again exploit me to assist in gaining access to Maricopa County voting machines through a subpoena in my case in a similar way that he obtained access in Michigan through Matt DePerno’s case but I REFUSED to issue the requested subpoena to the Court on December 12, 2020, then on January 7, 2021, again obtained access to voting machines in Coffee County, GA). Penrose was directly and actively involved in the elaborate and sophisticated witness tampering efforts (that involved kidnapping, armed robbery, and abuse of a vulnerable adult) to conceal he and his team’s role and involvement in the attempted but failed efforts to gain such access to voting machines. Jim Penrose was also part of the fusion team at Lin Wood’s Tomotley ranch in November and December 2020 when these events took place (see below)…
JIM PENROSE WAS DIRECTLY INVOLVED IN DIRECTING THE TEAM THAT ENGAGED IN THE KIDNAPPING, FALSE IMPRISONMENT, AND ARMED ROBBERY OF AND TO INCLUDE UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS AND TAMPERING WITH MY IPHONE TO CONCEAL THE FAILED ATTEMPTED FRAUD SCHEME. By history, two armed men claiming to be carrying out a government sanctioned operation, from First Amendment Praetorian (“1AP”) aka Sheppard Group, Rich Chichester aka “Chi” and Brandon Pittman aka “1800,” while armed and in my home under false pretenses claiming to act as a government sanctioned security detail sent by then Arizona House Elections Committee Chair Kelly Townsend, “General” Micheal Flynn, and Sidney Powell, forcefully stole my Iphone from my hands while I was speaking on a call with an Arizona Senator. My stolen phone was then illegally transported across state lines in the bag of Rich Chichester to the Willard Hotel on or around the 1st of January 2021, where according to audio recorded statements made at the time, Chichester then told 1AP leadership Robert Patrick Lewis (“RPL”) and Joe Kent, that Chichester had discovered that he had unauthorized possession of my stolen phone. According to 1AP members, my phone was stolen at the request of Jim Penrose and while at the Willard Hotel, my phone data was illegally extracted using a Cellubrite device available to Penrose from Conan James Hayes. In mid January 2021, the group mailed me a cloned copy of my stolen phone with important data that implicated criminal activity committed by the network, had been erased and clearly the device had been tampered with.
This theft of my IPhone and the subsequent attempt to prove Mr. Penrose with legal cover by White House Office of Personell Management Attorney Andrew Kloster was covered by Raw Story and was reported to law enforcement but was not investigated. Here is the media reporting about this from back in 2022; rawstory.com/1st-amendment-…
I find it quite fascinating that Jim Penrose just two weeks ago spoke at a National Security Conference, on the topic of, “detecting behavioral and network indicators of violence, terrorism, and criminal ties via mobile & OSINT data.”
It’s like wait, what? Is this really for real? No. It can’t be true….. But it is….
Note: The attached excerpt of an article by@ProPublicais entirely inaccurate and repeats falsehoods perpetrated by Jim Penrose and the 1AP team as part of those witness tampering and public narrative influence efforts. @DougBockClark and @AlexandraBerzon knew that the “story” and theories were told to me to begin with by Trump campaign attorney Brandon Paroly. They knew this at the time of publication because that call was audio recorded and provided to them nearly eight months before they published this story. And I said I believed I was the Jane Doe witness based on what I was being gaslit to believe at the time by one of the 1AP team members James Curtis, who was in frequent contact with Doug Clark and quite influential in shaping this story and providing background information on the Antrim County efforts described above and misdirecting via witness tampering the Maricopa County efforts. The actual “Jane Doe” witness was Sabrina Keliikoa, a fact that @DougBockClark and @AlexandraBerzon were also well aware of because they had her identity and proof of her role signing the affidavit obtained by Jim Penrose from her the day before Powell listed her as a witness aligned with the claims Penrose made about securing the affidavit from her on the same audio recording they quoted Penrose from. @jordangreennc correctly reported Powell’s “Jane Doe” [aka Sabrina Keliikoa] and her role in his piece here (which also includes discussion of Penrose and related allies); alternet.org/alternet-exclu… To be clear… as of 2024 Kellikoa from the prior link still believes that she witnessed ballot fraud, Biden was never inaugurated, that Trump remained President during Biden’s term and she will one day testify in support of Powell’s election fraud claims. In addition, Penrose’s lies regarding the “findings” of the Sky Harbor airport investigation upon further inquiry were entirely fabricated because according to the family owned (at the time but has since been sold) Swift Aviation, there was no “baggage handler trolling MAGA coworkers.” All of the employees at Swift Aviation were avid Trump supporters. The initial “source” of the report from Swift Aviation was Oprah’s private pilot, Don Johnson, who himself is an avid Trump supporter and friend of Charlie Kirk. Here is @ProPublica’s inaccurate piece (related inaccurate excerpt below) that they have never corrected despite repeated requests to do so; propublica.org/article/big-li…” – Staci Burk, 4/18/2026, https://x.com/staciburk/status/2045363944165183787?s=46 (archive link https://archive.is/2026.04.18-102148/https://x.com/staciburk/status/2045363944165183787?s=46)
