I trust major news organizations, members of Congress, and public interest groups are publicizing their secure tip lines so DOJ and FBI employees with knowledge of political interference in the Epstein files review process, can explain safely and confidentially what they saw.

We should relish this moment. For a few hours. Because we should realize that these results are going to make the Trump administration even more aggressive about tilting the 2026 playing field, and we need to be ready for that.

From the House Oversight Committee report published last week: “The authority to grant pardons is not provided to the president’s inner circle. ... The president must make the decisions, and the courts can hold pardons void if the decisions are made by others.”

Today Trump confirmed that instead of helping you with rising costs, he's sending $20 BILLION of your money to...wait for it...Argentina.
Why? Because he wants to keep his right wing friend there in power, and he wants to help the billionaires who benefit from a bailout.

Dollar dominance and the Trump administration
There is general agreement that a currency’s safe-haven status can be gauged by its response to changes in financial volatility. This column documents how, in the months following the Trump administration’s “Liberation Day” announcement, the dollar switched from rising during periods of market volatility to falling, and thus appeared to switch from a safe-haven to a ‘risk-on’ currency. Its reversion to traditional flight-to-safety behaviour in recent months may indicate that this ‘risk-on’ episode was a one-time event, but it is also possible that even as financial markets have calmed down, foreign entities are taking steps to reduce their dependence on the dollar for trade, payments, and investment.
