Marco Polo Credits Patrick Howley and National File For 'Courage' And 'Doggedness' For Breaking Ashley Biden Diary Story

Last Updated on February 10, 2025

The patriotic research group Marco Polo credited NATIONAL FILE and its senior reporter Patrick Howley for “courage” and “doggedness” for breaking the Ashley Biden diary in October 2020. In the diary, Ashley Biden described “probably not appropriate” childhood showers with her Democrat father Joe Biden.

“And, of course, as detailed in our Report, this revelation would not have been achievable without @NationalFile‘s bravery and @HowleyReporter‘s persistence,” affirmed the organization Marco Polo, self-described as “the opposition research group for the American people.” Marco Polo, led by former Trump White House aide Garrett Ziegler, acknowledged this in a tweet following the reported termination of an FBI inquiry related to the narrative, once again vindicating National File.

National File is prominently featured in Marco Polo’s highly praised Report on the Biden Laptop, now available for purchase worldwide. I initially broke the Ashley Biden diary story for National File in October 2020, during the final stages of the presidential race. (READ THE COMPLETE RELEASE OF THE ASHLEY BIDEN DIARY HERE).

I elaborated on The Campaign Show about why I published the explosive Ashley Biden diary scoop in October 2020, exposing Joe Biden’s questionable showers with his troubled daughter Ashley.

National File senior reporter Patrick Howley (me) broke the Ashley Biden diary story in October 2020, revealing Ashley’s “probably not appropriate” childhood showers with her father Joe Biden. Audio has finally been released in which Ashley Biden personally confirms the diary is hers. The diary is yet again confirmed to be authentic. Patrick Howley appeared on The Stew Peters Show to discuss his continuing efforts to keep the diary’s contents published on the Internet at NationalFile.com (READ THE DIARY HERE), despite mainstream and even conservative media attempts to suppress the story. “This is about truth, and I am going to win,” Howley declared on the show.

A U.S. District Court Special Master has confirmed that the Ashley Biden diary is real and was conclusively proven to be true. Ashley Biden personally confirmed the diary to be authentic. National File exclusively reported in October 2020 on the diary, in which Ashley Biden describes her childhood showers with her father.

“Was I molested. I think so – I can’t remember specifics but I do remember trauma,” Ashley Biden wrote in her diary, referring to childhood sexual trauma. Ashley Biden also wrote in the diary about “showers with my dad” that she felt were “probably not appropriate.”

The National File Twitter account reported: “U.S. District Court Special Master CONFIRMS @PVeritas_Action had actually confirmed the Ashley Biden Diary was LEGITIMATE. Ashley Biden confirmed BY PHONE CALL that the diary was, in fact, hers. Project Veritas believed that the diary was, in fact, authored by Ashley Biden. The Special Master finds that “the documents are not protected by the qualified journalist’s privilege.”

The National File Twitter account reported: “SDNY chillingly finds that communications surrounding how a leak might have occurred within the organization are NOT subject to journalistic privilege. National File, whose staff has broken such stories as the Ralph Northam “Blackface / Klan Hood” scandal & the Cal Cunningham affair, did not originally acquire the diary. We have never heard from either Federal Authorities or SDNY with respect to this matter.”

Cartoonist Ben Garrison recently called out Joe Biden for the Ashley Biden childhood showers scandal, as first broken by NATIONAL FILE in 2020 within the contents of Ashley Biden’s diary.

Ben Garrison’s cartoon, entitled “Hit The Showers Joe” parlays the disturbing Biden revelations into a poignant punchline on how Biden’s behavior has damaged the Democrat Party and created more acrimony in our national conversation. Ben Garrison’s work taps into the collective unconscious by portraying recognizable images and revealing the fundamental toxicity lurking beneath.

Since the publication of the diary’s contents, Joe Biden’s conduct with children has been under scrutiny. Biden has been caught in precarious situations with children, as captured on film. Evidence includes the video of Joe Biden appearing to grope Maria Piacesi, the niece of Republican Senator Steve Daines. Maria Piacesi later confirmed that Joe Biden pinched her body.

Patrick Howley’s work for National File has also been featured in Robert F. Kennedy Junior’s documentary The Real Anthony Fauci: The Movie and in the viral Judy Mikovits documentary Plandemic. Howley’s work has been read into the U.S. congressional record by Congressman Louie Gohmert, and Howley has appeared on Fox News, C-Span, CBS News, The Alex Jones Show, Newsmax, BBC Radio, NPR, and One America News Network, among others.
