EXCLUSIVE: MeidasTouch has learned new details of what really happened inside Todd Blanche's meeting with Epstein survivors today. One survivor noted Blanche was "abrasive, condescending, and intentionally noncommittal." Here are the full details.

Trump doubles down on 2020 election claims in national address, alleging China meddling PUBLISHED THU, JUL 16 202612:40 PM EDTUPDATED 5 MIN AGO Kevin Breuninger @KEVINWILLIAMB www.cnbc.com/2026/07/16/t...

Reminder: Trump voted by mail in Florida.

The only election interference happening in this country is coming straight from the White House, and no amount of pathetic late night rambling from a failing, fading president will change anyone’s mind

President Donald Trump said the release of declassified documents related to election integrity is not meant "weaken confidence" in US elections, despite years of insisting there have been irregularities in elections. Critics say he has done just that. https://cnn.it/4vATjGm

It was a nice touch for Trump to start out his primetime address to the nation with 24 consecutive lies in 5 minutes. Very subtle intro. Really set the tone for the vague international conspiracies that he outlined later.

I'm watching the Trump speech because I have to for my job and it's the most batshit crazy presidential speech I've ever heard in my nearly 50 years alive Where it's coherent—which is only intermittently—it's on its face the largest tureen of turd soup any POTUS has ever served

They buried the Epstein files. New Mexico picked up a shovel. A judge blocked Trump’s $1.8B grab. A county slammed Big Tech out. Millions refused to flinch. If you need proof the guardrails still hold, it’s right here.

A reminder for Todd Blanche and any U.S. Senator who thinks he’s fit to serve as Attorney General.
