But what about the Epstein survivors seated in that room listening to the U.S. attorney general shrug off this massive, vile scandal? What about their pain or anger or exhaustion as Bondi told lawmakers to just be happy the rich are getting richer?

RASKIN: President Trump may have been a little bit embarrassed by the release of his tax return. If Trump can get $10 billion, how much do you think the claims of these Epstein survivors are worth?

Say @raskin.house.gov? Does the fact that there are a million more references of Trump in the unredacted set mean that's primarily what the FBI redacted in March?

Props to @san.com for being the first news org I've seen to cite our stories debunking the claim that staffers at the Medgar and Myrlie Evers National Monument removed brochures describing Medgar Evers' assassin as racist.

Dozens of other news orgs uncritically repeated the erroneous claim.

Reports conflict about the National Park Service’s attempt to update brochures on Medgar Evers, who was killed by a white supremacist in 1963.
