They’re releasing the bad stuff now because it’s Christmas time. But if you are angry about Epstein because of the abuse of children, then don’t pretend Trumps name wasn’t all over today’s release. Or admit it was all politics in the first place

I took an oath to defend the Constitution, the rule of law, and our First Amendment rights. Which means I won't let this Administration silence me. Because in the Navy, we don't give up the ship.

I learned about the DoD investigation by tweet, and I learned they’re “escalating” it the same way last night. This just shows again how Pete Hegseth is not a serious person. And there's nothing he can do to stop me from fighting for this country.

David Ellison appears to be mortified that CBS/60 Minutes is “going rogue” by covering the news and by keeping him “in the dark” about a segment critical of Trump.

We now know Pete Hegseth was lying when he said it was Admiral Holsey who gave the order to murder the two Venezuelans clinging to the burning dinghy. It was Hegseth, whose insecurity, bloodlust, and need to impress the pedophile führer w/his sadistic cruelty, who gave the order.
