Khanna: You’ve got the DOJ releasing the names of survivors—which they are not allowed to do by law—but not releasing the FBI interview files with those same survivors. Those FBI interviews contain the names of other men: Wall Street tycoons and politicians…

Remember when Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump’s lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, wrote an op-ed trying to justify having sex with kids? Seems relevant now.

This hasn't received much attention but with 2nd seizure of oil tanker of Venezuela it will. The two tankers seized are oil China purchased. Seizures violate International Law. China has taken the issue to the UN. www.reuters.com/world/china/...

Now that Bari Weiss pulled a segment telling the truth about Trump's deportations to let Stephen Miller have his say (i.e. spread propaganda), it's a good time to check out our deep dive into Miller's real worldview and agenda, which doesn't pull any punches: newrepublic.com/article/2041...

It’s called the First Amendment. You used it as your defense to incite an insurrection. Given your advancing dementia, look it up or have someone explain it to you.

This issue alone is going to cost them seats in places they don’t expect. They don’t understand the grass roots anger and hostility there is about this, and billionaire CEOs of Cantor Fitzgerald like Lutnick aren’t going to fool them with their con men sales pitches.

Lutnick isn’t stupid. He knows what he’s saying here is a lie. Kellyanne knows this is a lie. But they have nothing but contempt for the Fox audience, and serving up lies to the lemmings has worked so well for so long. A tiny handful are doing well, millions are not.

The self-proclaimed head of USAGM, Kari Lake, who this year destroyed nearly all of the Voice of America, tells the agency's few remaining journalists the White House National Security Strategy will "guide our interview subjects, story selection, and coverage going forward."

The American people deserve to know the truth—did Tom Homan accept a bribe from undercover FBI agents or not? Despite what the government claims, his personal interests are not more important than the American people.

As "60 Minutes" finalized its "Inside CECOT" report last Thursday, CBS sent the White House a request for comment. A WH spokesperson responded within a few hours. The quote was not included in the "60" report – so, judge for yourself whether it should have been included or not >>>

I’m skeptical about that letter Epstein supposedly attempted to send to Larry Nasser, and I’m worried that if it turns out to be fake, it’ll be used to discredit + undermine otherwise credible evidence. Can we all pump the brakes on it until it’s verified by a handwriting expert?

Trump’s problem is that so many Americans — including his MAGA base — believed that he’d expose a powerful global elite. But every day it's becoming more and more clear that Trump is part of that global elite. Expect him to lash out as the walls close in.

NYT shows how Bari Weiss really screwed this up. She didn't attend any of the 5 screenings of the story, which began on Dec. 12. She only first weighed in on Thursday, and the show incorporated her suggestions. She then waited until weekend to ask for more edits. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/22/b...

It’s interesting that the administration wants you to know that Bari Weiss is in league with them.

1 - the exec branch can't decline to spend $ Congress appropriated 2- the fed govt can't use federal $ to extort states over policy/political disagreements 3-the fed govt can't use federal $ to impose conditions unrelated to the funding program 4-the fed govt can't use federal $ to coerce states

The DOJ is both acting like Trump’s personal attorney and protecting co-conspirators Bondi said didn’t exist

How it started Vs. How its going

Trump: "Tell me what you think of my 'Master of Ceremony' abilities. If really good, would you like me to leave the Presidency in order to make “hosting” a full time job?"

“But the email released on Tuesday suggests two of these were taken without his family members: One trip was with Epstein alone, the other was with Epstein and a 20-year-old woman whose name was redacted.” Zachary Folk for @forbes.com

Sean Duffy says he now has veto power over appropriations passed by Congress and signed into law. He is the dictator over infrastructure funds. If you do something he doesn’t like, you lose the funds passed by Congress. bsky.app/profile/atru...

I hope it's clear to everyone by now that Trump's play over and over again is to yell "National Security!" and pretend as though that gives him the right to act like a dictator

"On two other flights, two of the passengers, respectively, were women who would be possible witnesses in a Maxwell case," the assistant US attorney said in the email.

A criminal PARTY. Republicans could stop the kidnapping, imprisonment, and torture of people any time they want with congressional orders. They could stop the consolidation of media empires to hide the truth. Instead they choose to allow it. We are the bad guys because of them.
