A federal judge rejected the DOJ's effort to unseal grand jury transcripts and exhibits in the Epstein case.
He wrote that the government itself is the “logical party” to make the Epstein files public and criticized its motion as a “diversion” tactic.

DOJ goes 0-3 in requests to unseal Jeffrey Epstein grand jury materials
Two other federal judges already denied DOJ’s requests to publicly release the material.

Bad ass act of resistance!
A Yosemite National Park ranger has been fired, and others could still face charges, after a massive transgender pride flag was hung from El Capitan earlier this year. Shannon “SJ” Joslin, a bat biologist, received a termination letter last week citing “unacceptable conduct.”

What the actual f&@$ is going on in Texas???
Eight House Democratic members will be forced back onto the floor tonight after publicly tearing up the Republican-mandated “permission slips” required to leave the chamber. They will remain there, held against their will.

Wow….just covering up all around…collusion between the DOJ and the White House to protect him.

If the Senate's budget is enacted, millions will lose health insurance, millions will fall into poverty, and the national debt will increase by $3.3T.
All of this to provide a major tax cut mainly to the rich and big corporations.
There is no justification for this.

Miami just canceled its November election & pushed it to 2026. No public vote, just canceled.
Mayor Suarez & Joe Carollo get to stick around an extra year.
This feels like a power grab. If one city can delay elections for “participation,” what’s to stop others from doing it to silence opposition?
