Republicans fought release of Epstein materials every step of the way, are now refusing to release the second strike boat video, and won’t let Jack Smith testify in public. They constantly hide everything they are doing from the American people.

NATO fighter jets were scrambled after Putin ordered Tu-95MS strategic bombers on a Christmas sortie toward northern Britain, according to the Mirror. The aircraft flew over the Norwegian Sea, prompting an air policing response amid concerns over a deliberate show of force near UK airspace.

Once again, this stuff about taking territory from 🇨🇦, 🇩🇰/🇬🇱, & 🇵🇦 is not funny, especially in the current moment. It’s a massive threat to global security & US national interests, & in a more serious world, it would end his presidency before it even starts.
Also, again, if anything actually mattered & we were a serious country, in an era where the illegal seizure of the territory of another sovereign state is again a central issue in IR (🇷🇺/🇺🇦), comments like this about our closest neighbor & ally would end his presidency the second it restarted.
like, he just genuinely thinks of a trade deficit as a direct subsidy. It’d be really funny if it weren’t so stupid

I never again want to hear about how the Republican Party is the party of national security. You don’t incinerate our diplomatic capacity & violate all of our treaty commitments if you care about national security.

This hasn't received much attention but with 2nd seizure of oil tanker of Venezuela it will.
The two tankers seized are oil China purchased. Seizures violate International Law.

Trump is implementing a strategy advised by some of his lawyers that all political prosecutions be brought before Aileen Cannon—the Roland Freisler of the US judiciary—where conviction would be guaranteed. Brennan seeks to preempt this strategy.

Anyway, curious what possible rationale the DOJ could have for redacting those sections saying that Epstein paid off witnesses to their "criminal sex trafficking and abuse conduct," threatened harm, to "release damaging stories about them," and telling them to "destroy evidence."
Ok. Now had a chance to check and, well, at least some docs do appear to be straight up classic redaction fail. And there are some *interesting* bits here.

This is wild. Why would a line like this be redacted:
“Epstein also threatened harm to victims and helped release damaging stories about them to damage their credibility when they tried to go public with their stories of being trafficked and sexually abused.”

Feels relevant. Imagine what the Trump Epstein files show just in financial crimes. The GOP is protecting this.
Always a Jeffrey Epstein angle with Trump.
Brad Karp, Leon Black… Capitulating makes more sense now.
My theory is Trump took over Epstein’s blackmail operation with the evidence FBI collected (in NY, NM, FL and Little St. James). His old pal’s dead was an opportunity.
