That's weird; he told reporters he had nothing to do with the fund. Now he's saying he gave up a lot of money "allowing" it.

Funny how the all the people ransacking the Capitol on January 6 were liberals, plants, and ANTIFA—until there was money to be made from it.

You can buy anything with this administration. Reynolds American donated $5 million to Trump’s super PAC on April 30. Eight days later, the FDA handed the tobacco industry exactly what it wanted. In between, a Reynolds executive and two lobbyists had lunch with Trump at his Jupiter golf club.

A reminder: The Attorney General of the United States should be the people's lawyer, not the president's personal attorney. The Department of Justice should act to protect the public, not the occupant of the Oval Office and his political allies.

Thomas Massie pushed for the release of the Epstein files, and the response has been tens of millions in outside spending, smear campaigns, and coordinated attacks. If this is what they do to a sitting member of Congress, imagine what Epstein survivors face when considering whether to come forward.

Missing from history books is a key moment in America’s culture wars. It took place in May of 1970 and later came to be known as the "Hard Hat Riot." The tactics used by Nixon to stoke division then are strikingly similar to those used by modern culture warriors. Watch.
