The Democratic National Committee cut slain staffer Seth Rich’s paycheck nearly in half five days after his murder in July 2016.

Rich has long been identified by insiders as the source of Wikileaks’ release of internal DNC emails, which dropped days after his murder in Washington D.C., right before the Democratic National Convention.

Records show that the DNC docked Rich for being dead.

Rich posthumously received $997.15 on July 15, five days after his murder.

Rich typically earned about $1,720 on his paycheck twice a month.

Seth Rich reportedly provided Wikileaks the exact same number of DNC emails that Wikileaks ended up publishing in its historic July 2016 release.

Fox 5 DC’s original report naming Rich as the Wikileaks source reported that Rich handed over “more than 44,000 emails” to Wikileaks.

Now, on its index page for the DNC emails, Wikileaks includes a note at the top stating that the group published exactly 44,053 emails.

Journalist Seymour Hersh admitted on audiotape, based on his sources, that Rich was Wikileaks’ source and that John Brennan and James Clapper cooked up the Russia-Gate conspiracy against President Trump:

Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy has authorized the twenty thousand National Guard members providing security around the U.S. Capitol to carry lethal weapons as Washington, D.C., braces for Inauguration Day.

“On January 12, 2021, National Guardsmen were given authorization to be armed in support of the U.S. Capitol Police to protect the U.S. Capitol and individual members of Congress and their staff,” according to a statement from the D.C. National Guard, which is commanding Guard forces in the city, including units deployed from six other states, to provide security for President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration next week,” the DC National Guard revealed in a statement “This was requested by federal authorities and authorized by the Secretary of the Army.”

The National Guard Bureau declined to specify what weapons troops would carry.

“National Guard members are postured to meet the requirements of the supported civil authorities, up to and including protective equipment and being armed if necessary,” said the statement. “The public’s safety is our top priority.”

Gen. Daniel R. Hokanson, chief of the National Guard Bureau, told media members on Monday that a force of up to 15,000 will deploy to D.C. with all their issued equipment, including their individual weapons. So if the need arises, “they are close by and they are readily accessible.”

The Pentagon initially authorized up to six thousand two hundred Guard members from Maryland, Virginia, New York, New Jersey, Delaware and Pennsylvania to deploy to D.C. on federal status to maintain security through Inauguration Day.

The history of National Guard members being a part of the presidential inauguration dates back to the first inauguration of President George Washington in 1789.
