Republicans just approved a budget blueprint that does far more than fund the war with Iran. Buried inside the $95 billion package is $10 billion to implement new nationwide voting restrictions demanded by Trump.

Keep a copy of this to show your children the exact moment the Trump cult ended. This is their cynical attempt to prevent the release of the Epstein files AND ,now that we have seen the email from Epstein that clearly states Bill Clinton never visited his island, to revive their dead narrative.

Not three months ago, Bondi and Patel stated unequivocally that there was nothing more to investigate (but that is indeed the reason the will give for not releasing the files now)

Tom Joscelyn@tomjoscelyn.bsky.social

Instead of just releasing the Epstein files, Trump ordered the DOJ to investigate Democrats and AG Pam Bondi is complying. Are they setting up a pretext to block the release by arguing the files are now part of an active investigation? I’m not saying that would work, but he’s desperate to block.

Does anybody believe the Trump administration would release files that hadn't been altered to hide anything detrimental to Trump ot his pals?

If we're finally going to crack down about lying to Congress under oath, I think there are several Cabinet members and a few Supreme Court justices whose testimonies might need revisiting.

Rep. Dan Crenshaw: "This is about lying to Congress under oath, and Comey needs accountability for that. He doesn't get to just walk through the woods and write poetry and do other weird things and post on Instagram anymore. He's gonna actually have to face it."

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

moments ago, ice agents again came out of the broadview detention/“professing” facility to escort a silver suv out of the lot. one of the agents picked up and threw congressional candidate kat abughazaleh to the ground.

Until everyone stops thinking it won't happen here and band these assault rifles and other automatic weapons, nothing is going to change. The 2nd amendment needs to go.

This week the diddler in chief will be traveling to Alaska, which he believes is in Russia, for his annual performance review. I hope every reporter there asks him about his continued attempts to distract from the Epstein files. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
