Why won't anyone ask the follow up question? Trump says Epstein stole Giuffre so he kicked him out of Mar-a-Lago. But that wasn't until SEVEN YEARS LATER.
REPORTER: Do you know Epstein was taking those young women, including Virginia Giuffre? TRUMP: No, I didn't know. I figured it would be ABC fake news that would ask that question. One of the worst. But no I don't know really why.

EXCLUSIVE: I have spoken with more people since my initial article on the review of the Epstein files and one thing is clear: more people had access to them because of the rushed nature of the review than previously thought. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/exclusive-...

I've been saying for years and years that media failing to properly explain to Americans what the Russia and Ukraine scandals were about is going to eventually wreak havoc in America. We're now there. Trump supporters are calling for Obama to be arrested over a fantasy version of the Russia scandal.

This is an excellent, informed piece.
BREAKING: District judge presses forward with mass-firings challenge following SCOTUS's order. Judge Susan Illston provided a great example on Friday of how to deal with the current Supreme Court in an order that the Trump admin turn over its mass-firing plans. New, at Law Dork:

Why didn’t Dems put Trump in jail over the Epstein stuff? Because Alex Acosta and Alan Dershowitz got Epstein a deal that came with a non-prosecution agreement for Epstein’s clients and coconspirators. Then trump rewarded Acosta with a job as Labor Secretary.
He’s got the chalkboard out. Desperate times call for desperate measures.

It takes just minutes to read, but I promise it will blow your mind. The Trump-Qatar Scandal is about so much more than a damn plane—and Trump knows it. Even many in major media know it. I cannot explain to you, as a bestselling Trump biographer, why so many in D.C. are hiding what all of us know.

This isn't a racist dogwhistle. This is a stack of concert-quality speakers blaring racism into an arena.
Q: There are many people who fit the criteria of fleeing persecution. Afghans for example. But they're being denied refugee status. So why such an exception for the Afrikaners? TRUMP ADMIN OFFICIAL: One of the criteria is making sure they can be assimilated easily into our country

If your gut reaction lately has been, “Trump can’t do that...right?” you’re not alone. A closer look at the Constitution helps clarify what’s really at stake under Trump 2.0.

This is the message. You may like Pritzker, you may not, but whomever the new leaders of a reformed democratic party are, they will carry this message. This is the way to win. My two cents.
Pritzker: The reckoning is here. And now that this culture of timidity is on display, these same do-nothing Democrats want to blame our losses on the defense of Black people, trans kids, and immigrants, instead of on their own lack of guts and gumption.
