Anna Paulina Luna has been tasked by Congress with, among other things, uncovering the state secrets surrounding the September 11 attacks - but stresses that her task force “lacks authority”.

The US House of Representatives has appointed Anna Paulina Luna to head a task force that will work to declassify classified documents relating to the JFK assassination, 9/11 and the Epstein investigation, among others.

Luna is a freshman in Congress and has previously worked as a swimsuit model and waitress at a men’s club.

The task force was appointed by the House Oversight Committee, where the Republican majority is pushing for greater transparency of previously classified documents. It is not confirmed whether Luna was chosen for the position on Donald Trump’s direct initiative or through other Republican party structures.

Luna herself has expressed support for Trump and is described as part of the more conservative wing of the party. Her political profile has been characterized by criticism of established institutions and calls for greater transparency, which is a key issue for the task force she will now lead.

However, her appointment has been met with skepticism, with several voices questioning her experience and suitability to handle highly sensitive documents.

Three-time name changer

Anna Paulina Luna was born Anna Paulina Mayerhofer in 1989 and has undergone several name changes. After being married to military officer Andrew Gamberzky, she bore his surname, before starting to use Anna Paulina while working for the conservative organization Turning Point USA. In 2019, she formally changed her surname to Luna, which she has explained as a way to emphasize her Mexican heritage.

Her biography has come under scrutiny, and some of her own statements about her family background have been questioned. For example, she has claimed that her father was a Messianic Jew, while relatives have stated that he was in fact Catholic.

Luna has confirmed that she worked as a cocktail waitress at a gentlemen’s club, but there have also been unconfirmed rumors that she was a stripper at the Red Rose Gentleman’s Club in Florida.

She has also worked as a swimsuit model for various publications, including Sports Illustrated.

In addition, there have been allegations that she falsely registered to vote in Florida and that she claimed that Republican strategist Roger Stone tried to poison her. However, none of these allegations have been substantiated by independent investigations.

“Bibi in the House”

Luna has openly and consistently expressed strong support for Israel in both bills and public statements. On July 24, 2024, she attended a congressional meeting where Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was speaking, and posted a picture of herself with him on social media with the caption “Bibi in the House”.

Luna poses with Netanyahu during his visit to Washington.

In October 2023, she introduced the “Stand with Israel Act” (H.R. 6118), which aims to stop all funding to the UN Human Rights Council until the UN Security Council and General Assembly condemn Palestinian Hamas for the attacks of October 7, 2023.

Her commitment to Israel has led to questions about her impartiality in carrying out the mission, especially as some of the events she will now review – notably the Jeffrey Epstein case and the 9/11 attacks – have been the subject of speculation over the years about possible involvement of Israeli intelligence services.

Unclear mandate

The task force is also met with scepticism, partly because it is highly unclear how the declassification will be carried out in practice or what timeframes will apply, and Luna herself admits that she does not really have a mandate to carry out her task.

It’s important to note that we don’t have documents yet, and we also don’t hold declassification authority, she says in a public video explaining the mission.

 

Luna herself adds that she wants the American public to have access to the truth behind these events and that she will work to make “as much information as possible” available.

Tucker Carlson: “Let Israel fight its own wars”

Tucker Carlson urges Trump not to betray his voter base and not to sacrifice American lives for Israel.
3 minute read

Talk show host and opinion maker Tucker Carlson harshly criticized President Donald Trump’s stance on Iran on Friday, writing in a sharply critical commentary that the US should “drop Israel” and “let them fight their own wars”.

If Israel wants to wage this war, it has every right to do so. It is a sovereign country, and it can do as it pleases”, Carlson wrote in his newsletter, adding: “But not with America’s backing”.

Trump, for his part, has expressed support for Israel’s attacks, which he called “very successful”, and emphasized in an interview with Fox News that the US will defend Israel if Iran retaliates. He also warned that the situation “will only get worse” if Iran does not agree to a nuclear deal “before there is nothing left”.

In recent days, Carlson has argued that fears that Iran will soon acquire nuclear weapons are unfounded and said that a war with the Islamic republic would not only lead to “thousands” of American deaths in the Middle East, but also “amount to a profound betrayal” of Trump’s voter base and effectively “mean the end of his presidency”.

He repeated this in his newsletter, accusing Trump of “being complicit in the act of war” through “years of funding and sending weapons to Israel”. Direct US involvement in a war with Iran, Carlson said, “would be a middle finger in the faces of the millions of voters who cast their ballots in hopes of creating a government that would finally put the United States first”,

What happens next will define Donald Trump’s presidency”, he concluded.

“Americans don’t want to bomb Iran”

Republican Senator Rand Paul also expressed opposition to a possible war with Iran and directed criticism at the hawkish neoconservatives in Washington.

The American people overwhelmingly oppose our endless wars, and they showed that when they voted for Donald Trump in 2024″, Paul wrote on social media.

I urge President Trump to stay the course, keep putting America first, and avoid getting involved in another foreign war.”, he continued.

Republican figure Marjorie Taylor Greene also spoke out against US involvement, emphasizing on Twitter that “Americans don’t want to bomb Iran because the secular government of Israel says that Iran is on the verge of developing a nuclear bomb any day now”.

Greene added that she doesn’t even know any American voters who are thinking about Iran.

Promised to “end all wars”

After being sworn in for his second term in January, President Trump promised to “stop all wars” and be remembered as a “peacemaker and unifier”. But six months later, tensions in the Middle East are escalating sharply following Israel’s attack on Iran, increasing the risk of a regional conflict that could draw in US forces.

Trump’s support for the Israeli attacks is now testing his promise of peace and creating divisions within his voter base. Many right-wing politicians and commentators argue that unconditional support for Israel runs counter to the “America First” principles that got Trump elected in the first place.

– There’s a strong sense of betrayal and anger within much of the ‘America First’ base, said Swedish-Iranian Trita Parsi, vice president of the Quincy Institute, an American think tank focusing on diplomacy.

– They’ve grown increasingly skeptical of Israel and believe wars like this are what turn Republican presidencies into failures – and derail their domestic agendas.

On Sunday, US President Donald Trump warned Iran against attacking American interests and promised a powerful military response if it did so.

If we are attacked in any way, shape or form by Iran, the full strength and might of the US armed forces will come down on you at levels never seen before”, Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.

On Saturday, Israel continued its bombing campaign, attacking Iran’s defense ministry headquarters in Tehran and a natural gas processing facility linked to the South Pars gas field in Bushehr province.

Trump continued to claim that the US was not involved in Israel’s attacks but asserted that he could “easily get a deal done between Iran and Israel and end this conflict”

At the same time, Iran announced that it was suspending the sixth round of nuclear negotiations with Washington with immediate effect.

29 children killed by Israeli missile

At least four people were killed and over 100 injured in the Israeli coastal city of Bat Yam after an Iranian missile attack during the night, according to the city’s mayor on Sunday morning as rescue efforts were still ongoing.

Israel’s ambulance service reported that at least seven people were killed in the country during the night, including a 10-year-old boy and a woman in her 20s. Over 140 people were injured in several attacks.

In Tehran, an Israeli missile struck a high-rise building, killing at least 60 people, including 29 children, according to Iranian authorities. In an earlier attack near a home in northern Israel, three women were reported killed and ten others injured.

In response to the attacks, Tehran fired another volley of missiles at Israel. Iranian missiles reached Israeli airspace in an attack that, according to Israeli emergency services, killed four people in an apartment building in the Galilee region. Waves of Iranian attacks began on Saturday and continued through the night and into the early morning hours, but it remains unclear how many buildings were hit in total.

Reports: Israel desperate to drag US into war against Iran

The escalation in the Middle East

So far, Donald Trump has chosen to distance himself from Israel's attacks on Iran.
2 minute read

Over the past 48 hours, Israel has asked the Trump administration to join the war against Iran in order to eliminate the country’s nuclear program. This has been reported by two Israeli officials.

Israel reportedly lacks the advanced bombs and heavy bombers needed to destroy Iran’s uranium enrichment facility in Fordow, which is built deep inside a mountain complex.

The US, on the other hand, has these resources available in the immediate area, but the Trump administration has so far publicly distanced itself from Israel’s operation, arguing that it would be illegitimate for Iran to retaliate by attacking US targets.

A direct US attack on Iran – even if limited to a single facility – would, according to analysts, definitely draw the US into the war.

Israel is determined to “eliminate” Iran’s nuclear program, and if the Fordow facility remains operational even after the ongoing bombing campaign, the operation will be considered at least a partial failure, according to analysts.

An Israeli official told Axios that the US may join the war and that President Trump, in a recent conversation with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, even suggested that he would do so if deemed necessary.

“Cannot be prevented”

However, a White House spokesman denied these plans on Friday. Another US official confirmed on Saturday that Israel has urged the Trump administration to join the war, but said the administration is not currently considering it.

– Whatever happens today cannot be prevented, a senior official said on Saturday, referring to the Israeli bombings.

– But we have the ability to negotiate a successful peaceful resolution to this conflict if Iran is willing. The fastest way for Iran to accomplish peace is to give up its nuclear weapons program, he continued.

Israel’s ambassador to the US, Yechiel Leiter, told Fox News on Friday that “the entire operation… really has to be completed with the elimination of Fordow”.

According to Israeli sources, the proposal for US participation in striking the Fordow facility has been discussed on several occasions with the US since the attacks began. An Israeli source says that the US is seriously considering this request and that Israel is now hoping for Trump’s approval.

Trump vows to defend Israel against Iranian retaliation

The escalation in the Middle East

Donald Trump promises that the US will “defend itself and Israel” if Iran retaliates after Israel’s latest “preemptive” attacks on Iranian targets.

The statement was made in a phone call with Fox News host Bret Baier on Friday morning, according to the television network.

During the night, Israel’s defense forces (IDF) carried out attacks on a large number of targets in Iran, including residential areas, military installations, and the nuclear facility in Natanz. According to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the purpose of the attack was to stop Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.

Iranian media reports that at least five people were killed and 20 injured in Tehran.

Among the dead were Hossein Salami, a top general in Iran’s elite Revolutionary Guard, army chief of staff Gholam Ali Rashid, and nuclear scientists Mohammad Mehdi Tehranchi and Fereydoon Abbasi.

The attack occurred two days before planned nuclear talks between the US and Iran in Oman.

“Not involved militarily”

Trump said that he had spoken with Netanyahu several times in the days leading up to the attack and knew about the plans in advance. However, he emphasized that “the US was not involved militarily” and expressed hope for new talks in the future.

– Iran cannot have a nuclear bomb and we are hoping to get back to the negotiating table. We will see. There are several people in leadership that will not be coming back.

Iran’s army has warned that “a bitter lesson awaits Netanyahu”, and the country’s supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, said that Israel “should expect severe punishment”.

Trump added that the US Central Command (CENTCOM) is on high alert:

CENTCOM is on high alert, the US will defend itself and Israel if Iran retaliates”, according to Fox.

Deeply aligned with Israel

Prior to the attack, Trump wrote on Truth Social that the US “remain committed to a diplomatic resolution to the Iran nuclear issue”, but that the country’s leadership “first must completely give up hopes of obtaining a Nuclear Weapon”.

Trump has previously been described as the most pro-Israel president in modern American history and has repeatedly been praised by Benjamin Netanyahu as an indispensable ally. Many Republicans in the president’s staff and inner circle are also staunch supporters of Israel, often for religious reasons.

Furthermore, the US provides billions of dollars in military and economic aid to Israel every year. The Israel lobby, led by influential organizations such as AIPAC, plays a significant role in US domestic and foreign policy and has for decades influenced the US position on issues relating to the Middle East.
