Despite the requisite caveat that Google long has been known for being a less-than-trustworthy search engine (as many know, it included MRCTV on its “Black List”) and despite the fact that correlation does not prove causation, numerous Washington Watchers have noticed a rather striking, almost amusing, and, perhaps, revealing, trend in the D.C. area digital world.
Since Trump’s return to D.C. and the rise of DOGE, a lot of the swamp residents suddenly appear to have engaged in online searches for things that, well, people who fear criminal prosecution for wrongdoing might try to find.
Wikileaks led the way in getting out the news, with numerous X posts citing screenshots of the Google analytics charts showing the sudden spikes.
You can be the judge of what that might indicate.
For example, On February 13, the Wikileaks team posted a four-subject chart, along with the identifiers of each line, showing a stunning rise in searches, beginning around mid-January:
“Washington DC searches soar for ‘Swiss bank’ (yellow), ‘offshore bank’ (green), ‘wire money’ (red) and ‘IBAN’ (blue)”
All up like rockets. Why in the world would that happen?
February 13 also saw the Wikileaks team post a copy of Google search data from the D.C. area showing a 400-percent increase in searches for “lawyer.” And, a sudden spike in searches for “statute of limitations.”
Coincidental, surely.
Then there are searches for ways to purge data from computers, a-la Hillary Clinton’s infamous team wiping hard-drives and literally using hammers to destroy them when Americans discovered she was hosting classified US government materials on her own personal servers.
With a chart again indicating a sudden, magical, spike in searches around January 23 and 24, Wikileaks February 14 wrote:
“Washington DC searches soar for ‘wipe’ (blue) and ‘erase’ (red) according to Google trends data.”
Perhaps Hillary was spending a lot more time online. Just her. Only her. Repeatedly searching…
Yeah, that’s the ticket.
Also on February 14, X Users show Google Trends indicating a sudden rise in DC area searches for “Immunity,” “Refugee,” and “Asylum.”
They likely weren't searches for info on natural immunity being better than risky mRNA jabs, not searches tied to Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, and not searches connected to the Eighties-era rock band, Asylum, from San Francisco.
In fact, one actually can participate in the investigation – as long as Google doesn’t purge its own data.

Here are two Google Trends results I locked-in when looking for “Bleach Bit” and “Wipe Hard Drive” D.C.-area searches, going back to this time, last year.
Sudden spikes in D.C., almost like the rise in heart problems, worldwide, following the introduction of the mRNA jabs.
X User “DogPlayingPiano” found a sudden rise in “Caymen Islands, Tax Haven” at this time, and a shocking concentration of searches for “Delete Files.”
Which, of course, is not a spinoff TV series based on “The X-Files,” and which, on a single day (January 6), spiked dramatically, as discovered by X user “BeardofDan”.
Mark Mitchell, of Rasmussen Reports, posted results showing a rise in searches for “extradition,” and showing a rise in searches for “Criminal Defense Lawyer,” and discussed it February 12 on X.
X user “Franz Schubert” found a sudden spike in searches for “Document Shredding.”
Probably for confetti to celebrate the Trump DOGE team’s work.
And Congressman Mark Green (R-TN) last week put some of these search spikes on record, as he took aim at the metastasizing reports of the corruption in the Constitution-insulting USAID crime network.
Finally, and perhaps fittingly, Rasmussen's Mitchell notes that, of all the U.S., the region now leading the way in searches for “therapy,” is...Washington, D.C.
Nice to know.
Too bad many of those searching likely will have derived major portions of their incomes from our sweat and toil and from the inflated, bogus, rotten-to-the-core, government-Federal-Reserve-money-creation system that has fed this monstrosity, this beast sometimes called “The Administrative State,” and otherwise known as the entire federal government.
They have no right to take our money. They have no right to invade privacy. Whether the money they have taken was “spent according to the statutes” or not, the taking, in the first place, is immoral.
As the bugs infesting D.C. scurry and scramble, it is important to note that recognition of the term “corruption” must connect on a much more fundamental level. The corruption lies in the anti-freedom, anti-rights, anti-individual assumption that government has any claim on any of us. It does not. Government is just gangs of people, occupying offices that are funded through taxation, taxation backed by government guns.
If the sudden increases in searches for terms that most civilized people recognize as often tied to criminals, that makes sense. Because all political controls over individuals are gangland actions, and this helps us recognize that fact.
