Leon Black is CEO of Apollo Mgt, which owns the school photo company Lifetouch.

Of all the relationships that Mr. Epstein built with the rich and powerful, his friendship with Mr. Black was arguably the most important.“

In a jaw-dropping post, Trump vowed to impose new voter ID requirements ahead of the midterm elections “whether approved by Congress or not.” Yes, you read that correctly. Not pass a law. Not persuade lawmakers. Just… do it.

The trump administration knows something the Dems won’t listen to. Stymieing behavior is enough to slow it or stop it. Taking your phone and paperwork, making you beg for it back is a pain in the ass. Do the same to ICE. Whether it’s legal or not arrest, strip them and keep their stuff as evidence.

This is concerning, that a rep feels they must post this. A lot in our coalition has felt the same way and worried about it, but didn’t think we’d be here publicly.

🚨In December 2016, Epstein invited Bill Gates to his island and informed him that “new administration people” were visiting.

This was sent exactly one month before Trump was inaugurated for his first term.

NEW: A page from Bondi's burn book. This is a list of the searches by Rep Jayapal of the unredacted Epstein files. That means the DOJ grabbed her search terms from the computers they set up for members of congress to view the Epstein files to use as ammunition. The photo is from Reuters.

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Ten countries have launched investigations related to the released Epstein files.

Norway, UK, France, Lithuania, Latvia, Sweden, Australia, North Macedinia, Turkey, Poland.

Conspicuously absent is the United States, the epicenter of this scandal.

We know why.

Good to see attention to the possible ethnic cleansing of Springfield, Ohio, and the people who are coming together to fight against it.

The fact that ICE refers to people detained as "bodies" tells us everything we need to know. It's fascism.

Parents are afraid to send their kids to school, classrooms sit half-empty, children are being taken to detention facilities. We’ve crossed a line.

I stood with education leaders to discuss the growing harm federal actions are causing to children, families, and our schools.

Again, this is FALSE. Administrative warrants are NOT signed by an immigration judge (or any judge at all). They are generated and signed by ICE officers themselves with no external oversight whatsoever.

Here is a blank sample warrant. Note who signs off on it; an "immigration officer."

Mike Johnson: "GOD FORBID we do what the US Constitution requires us to do! And GOD FORBID we use some of that $190 BILLION DOLLARS from the Big Bullshit Bill that was given to DHS to actually fund competent immigration judges who can ensure due process for ALL people, regardless of citizenship!"
Mike Johnson speaks out against the use of judicial warrants in immigration cases:

"Imagine if we had to go through the process of getting a judicial warrant"

Q: What did you mean when you said you should 'nationalize elections' & which 15 states are you talking about?

TRUMP: If a state can't run an election, I think the people behind me should do something about it. Look at Detroit, Pennsylvania, Atlanta -- horrible corruption on elections
