We can all see that there’s a systematic cover-up of the Epstein files by the DOJ.
Impeach Bondi. And any FBI officials involved should face consequences too.

I think it’s pretty likely Bari Weiss quits far sooner than anyone expects because if there’s anything we learned from her tenure at the New York Times it’s that this lady hates working, absolutely despises it, and she probably had to send like four emails today

Shameful.
CBS News EIC Bari Weiss had concerns about the CECOT piece, I’m told. The network decided to hold the segment pending, among other things, comment or an interview with White House officials next year…

Expect a "revolt" among 60 Minutes staff over Bari Weiss pulling the CECOT segment at the last minute, one network insider told me.
Another CBS News reporter added that a Rubicon had been crossed with this decision, which 60 Minutes correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi called "political" and not editorial.

Does anyone doubt Bari Weiss spiked the story to kowtow to Trump? What a disgrace. At a network that once knew its duty to speak truth to power.

Let’s be real, the DOJ isn’t going to prosecute itself. That’s why Congress is talking about using its own authority to step in using its own constitutional powers to enforce accountability.

A few reminders about the SCOTUS immunity decision for Presidents:
It does not provide immunity for prior crimes.
It does not provide immunity to the President's cabinet.
Similar to Roe v. Wade, it can be overturned in the future.

I have a problem with this statement. If people “knew nothing”, why did they cut ties “before his crimes came to light”? Seems like an admission that many of them knew full well what was happening and did nothing, even if they wanted nothing to do with his sordid activities themselves.

CSIS data indicates that right-wing extremists have historically accounted for the majority of domestic terrorist attacks and plots in the United States since 1994. This has been year on year. Suddenly, 2025 only, it shows a sharp decline in right-wing incidents.
