GIFT LINK Proverbially, a grand jury will indict a ham sandwich, but Pirro once again failed to get a grand jury to indict Trump’s enemies. Pirro also couldn’t get a trial jury to convict a man for assault with a Subway sandwich. They are bad at being bad people. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/10/u...

I attended Jessica Tisch’s “State Of The NYPD” this morning. 1. Crime is way down she became Commissioner. 2. She’s my choice to be the next FBI Director. 3. “Yesterday’s results are not good enough for today. Today’s results are not good enough for tomorrow.” 4. “ICE surges harm public safety.”

Police in Bloomington, MN just announced that one of the guys they arrested in an underage sex trafficking sting was a **background checker for ICE agents.** He had a high security clearance in the Trump administration... and he was caught trying to abuse children. Sickening.

Demanding Support for Trump, Justice Dept. Struggles to Recruit Prosecutors (GIFT LINK) Trump’s devastation of the reputation & personnel of the DOJ has grievously damaged the institution. It may never recover its stature. I can’t imagine restoration in my lifetime. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/07/u...

When Trump screeches “Nobody understands a word this guy [Bad Bunny] is saying”, he is saying that anyone who understands Spanish is a “Nobody” to him. That is over 45 million Americans who are “nobodies” to Trump. www.census.gov/library/stor...

I loved the Bad Bunny halftime show. We danced in our living room. I imagined it causing “it” to happen.

Audrey Hepburn in Roman Holiday is as luminescent as any actress has ever been. Currently playing on one of the Showtime channels. She was a committed anti-Fascist, volunteering as a teen for the Dutch Resistance and serving as a nurse in a battlefield hospital during the Battlle of Arnhem.

A simple proposal for federal judges frustrated that Trump Regime isn’t freeing people in response to habeas corpus orders: Order that DHS bring each individual to court for their habeas hearing. If the judge grants habeas, the petitioner walks out free. Bonus: huge pre-hearing burden on feds.

My imagination is insufficient to fully envision the venality & fragility of Donald Trump. I would not be surprised to learn that Trump has often tried to convince the objects of his desire that a golf pencil is “6 inches” long. nypost.com/2026/02/06/u...

When Brad Karp led Paul Weiss into the Quisling camp, I said “Brad Karp is moral scum.” Very Serious People told me I was missing the morality of Karp maneuvering his firm to avoid Trump’s wrath. With the revelation that Karp served as Epstein’s backstage consigliere in 2019, I feel validated.

"I did not think that the case could get worse than what I learned in 2009," Mitchell Epner, a former federal prosecutor who handed sex trafficking cases, told USA TODAY. "For the last 16 years, it has only gotten worse. ... They have exposed the victims and protected the perpetrators."

Sadly true. It will be ironic if SAUSA Julie Le is the only attorney who is sanctioned for ethical violations in connection with the Trump DOJ flouting orders to immediately release individuals from illegal imprisonment.

If you only watch one video that I have ever posted, please make it this one with @klasfeldreports.com. I am saddened and enraged at the misconduct of the DOJ and the continued victimization of the Epstein survivors. youtu.be/pXf-wNeKyk4?...

My beloved Knicks are blowing out the Wizards tonight, leading by 27 at the half. They've won 6 games in a row, after losing 9 out of 11. Meanwhile, lots of NBA trades, including Harden for Garland. Cleveland gets older, with a former MVP. Clippers bring in a young oft-injured potential star.

Imagine if Subway had continued to use Jared Fogle as their spokesman and sent him to summer camps after his pedophile crimes were exposed because they liked the business he created. That is how the ultra-elite treated Jeffrey Epstein after his 2008 slap-on-the-wrist criminal conviction.

/7 I don’t think these people encouraged Epstein to rape more children. I don’t think Epstein needed encouragement. But they did send him an unmistakable message: raping children is not a deal-breaker for notable, powerful and influential people to have a relationship with you.

/2 Jeffrey Epstein had a greater ability to continue to rape children and facilitate their rape because he was not treated as a pariah. It allowed him to continue to move in elite circles. It gave him contacts and support. It gave him access to people who wanted to be provided with children to rape.

Trump will sink and become one of the most loathed men on the planet. Remember every single person who promoted him. The rats will try to jump the ship in the next few months, but make them earn their rise to the top. (The town protects its own, always. They'll fail up, but make it very hard.)

One lesson I learned from my (thus-far-successful) fight against stage 3 colon cancer (6 years cancer free) is there is meaning in fighting against awful stuff, even if the path to victory is uncertain & difficult. The most important victory is in the fight. Down w/Trump! Solidarity, my friends.

I’m now a NFL widow. Not going to root for the Giants as long as that pedophile is an owner. So much worse than George Steinbrenner, who caused me to abandon the Yankees until he was suspended “for life” over Howie Spira. nypost.com/2026/01/30/u...

Indictment of Dan Lemon is a remarkably tendentious document, dressing up all manner of journalistic activity and planning as conspiracy to “intimidate” and “threaten.” He may have to live through some pre-trial steps, but the case is going to crash and burn.

I can imagine a wide range of outcomes in the upcoming 2026 congressional elections. In a worst case, I could see the GOP holding the House and Senate (picking up a few of seats in both). In a best case, Dems could take the Senate & gain >70 House seats. Anything in between is in play. Fight!

The latest state-by-state Trump approval ratings show him underwater in these states that he won in 2024: Pennsylvania, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Mississippi, Louisiana, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Indiana, Iowa Missouri, Nebraska, Kansas, Texas, Arizona, & Alaska 450 EV for Blue!
