Epstein took this photo at a 2015 dinner with Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk and emailed it to himself. Further review shows the same photo displayed on Epstein’s credenza. While much of the image on the credenza had previously been obscured, this email now makes clear what it shows.

I couldn’t even imagine my commanding officer pressuring me to go see a movie about the president’s wife while serving in the Marines. But this is Pete Hegseth’s DOD, where partisan politics continues to be pushed on troops who just want to do their jobs while serving America.

This is Virginia Democrats’ new House map. It creates 10 districts that Kamala Harris won by at least >50%, and 1 district that Donald Trump won by >70%. It’d take a current 6 D, 5 R House split and give Dems a very good chance for 10 D, 1 R.
