Fox reports that that while many of the redactions to the Epstein Files were made to protect victims’ identities, “the same redaction standards were applied to politically exposed individuals and government officials.” In other words, DOJ admits that they edited Trump and his pals out.

Boeing (and Toyota and the world’s largest mining fund from Australia) moving major work to Canada. Thanks Trump! youtu.be/d4flTtXOTn0?...

The accused killer’s legal team is arguing that a prior association drove Bondi to seek the death penalty for Mangione.

NOBODY TELL HIM

"At least 16 files from Epstein release disappeared from the DOJ's webpage, including a photo of Trump, with no explanation." EXPLANATION: The DOJ is engaging in a sloppy, ham-fisted coverup to protect rich pedophiles. That's why the files went missing.

Much reporting re DOJ’s omissions and redactions…but whose decisions were they? Surely they went up the line to Blanche and Bondi? Did they overrule career staff? Did they consult with the White House? With Trump? And if it’s a unitary executive, aren’t they all Trump’s decisions, redactions, etc?

Wild — as the community note says, Trump’s DOJ released a publicly available pic of MJ & Clinton & Diana Ross with their own kids and implied it’s them with victims They aren’t just redacting, they’re doctoring

This is key; the biggest thing that didn't happen yesterday is neither Trump nor DOJ stated that everything with Trump's name on it or with his image has been disclosed. If you have nothing to hide, wouldn't that be what you would do? Instead, looks like DOJ is continuing the cover-up, as Ryan notes

That looks nothing like Janet Mills but also Susan Collins has sent more than $400,000 (not a typo) to this group over the last few years...so Collins is literally paying for these gross and indefensible AI ads. Maybe somebody could ask her about them? #MEpolitics

GOP Rep. Thomas Massie and Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna plan to draft articles of impeachment against AG Pam Bondi over the DOJ’s failure to release all Epstein files as required by law.

ACA enrollment in Maine for 2026 drops precipitously, warns this article. I'd say not just for ACA, but for all health insurance plans. I bet everyone reading this knows someone who is cancelling their plan or is seriously considering it themselves. #MEpolitics #HealthCare #UniversalHealthCare

They're so transparent they're removing photos of Donald Trump. And now I'm getting an "access denied" message when I go back to look.

Pam Bondi needs to be impeached immediately, and then prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

The White House has been caught. The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims. In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

This photo, file 468, from the Epstein files that includes Donald Trump has apparently now been removed from the DOJ release. AG Bondi, is this true? What else is being covered up? We need transparency for the American public.

There is, obviously, no “Presidential Immunity Clause” in the Constitution. The conservative justices’ un-originalist efforts to imagine one into it cannot be supported by text or history. trib.al/N36lDNl

My dad was surrounded by a household of girls. Three of us in a row plus my mom. And we all had friends. Girls everywhere and you know what? He didn’t hang around snapping photos with girls on his lap. He got the fuck out of there and went to the garage. That man is a predator. Arrest the president.

Joint statement by Ranking Members Robert Garcia and Jamie Raskin on Trump Administration decision to defy Epstein Files Transparency Act.

This should have have been the end, in 2016.

Walz: "It's very clear that the entire federal government is weaponized against Minnesota. They're threatening us. And this is what happens when you have a floundering presidency and it's about those ballrooms. Now we're back on transgender folks."

TAPPER: “This is one of the documents Trump’s DOJ released. It’s 100 pages. ALL BLACK. That’s the ‘transparency’ we’re getting.” #TrumpEpsteinCoverup

Today, we're learning why DOJ didn't release the redacted files last March. Because the multitude of redactions exposes how much they're covering up.

Where is the book Jacob

Tapper: This is one of the documents the DOJ released. It’s 100 pages. It’s all black. That’s the transparency we’re getting.

This week, I met with women leaders from across Maine to hear directly about the issues they’re facing and the actions needed to move forward.

Jack Smith still wants to speak in public: In a new letter, Smith says he wants the American public to "hear the facts" about his two criminal cases against Trump — asking the House Judiciary Committee to release video of his closed-door deposition and schedule an open and public hearing.

Trump’s DOJ and AG Pam Bondi are now breaking the law to protect powerful pedophiles. #TrumpEpsteinCoverup

Jack Smith has requested that Jim Jordan release the entire video of his 8-hour closed-door testimony which he gave this week to the House Judiciary Committee. Will Jordan release the video to the public? If not, why not?

Susan Collins just voted to confirm all of these Trump nominees in a single vote. Only possible because of a Senate rule change that she helped push through over the objection of Democrats. Collins sided against 85 Biden nominees -- all or nearly all highly qualified. #MEpolitics

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

“Who’s gonna stop you?”

Ahead of the release of the Epstein Files, fascist Republicans cancelled Congressional session tomorrow and sent all members home for the holiday. This follows Bongino’s resignation and Ghislaine Maxwell’s request for her conviction to be vacated. Pay close attention.

I also have been assuming that the primary purpose of this conflict is domestic

President Trump tonight ordered the suspension of a green card lottery program that enabled the suspect in the Brown University mass shooting and killing of an MIT professor to live in the U.S.

Thanks @baygrl.bsky.social 😍

While American families are expected to pay more for goods this holiday season due to Donald Trump’s tariffs, small-business owners are facing an existential crisis, Annie Lowrey reports:

Tell your Senators and Rep they need to support this bill on unmasking ICE and displaying clear ID here:

U.S. service members are increasingly seeking outside legal advice over the Trump administration’s illegal strikes on suspected drug boats. Troops express ethical distress over killing outside the laws of war, fearing future accountability. #NoForeverWars

Rand Paul: "We've never in our past decided just to shoot smugglers who are unarmed without even proof they're smuggling anything. So I think this is a horrendous thing that should stop. I think it's illegal & immoral... the kids in the military - I'm not for sending them down there to die for oil"

I hope Pete Hegseth spends the rest of his life in prison and I hope all the GOP Senators who voted to confirm him spend their retirement years penniless and suffering from gout.

Republican @RepThomasMassie says @AGPamBondi could eventually be charged criminally if she doesn’t release the Epstein files tomorrow

It's time to move past the narrative that the masked ICE agents aren't ICE agents but bounty hunters cosplaying as ICE. They are people who willingly signed up to abduct people and collect a government paycheck.

It was never about drugs. It was always about oil.

For years his cult believed every incredulous thing he said, no questions asked. Now the facts are screaming back at them in their utility bills, grocery bills, insurance premiums, housing costs… He’s livid at them for struggling to accept his alternative reality.
