MTG tells the Times that when she threatened to expose the men who abused Epstein’s victims, Trump called to scream at her.

“My friends will get hurt,” he said.

This shouldn’t surprise anyone, but it’s still shocking to read.

Maybe don’t be friends with pedos, just saying

I’m shocked - shocked, I tell you - that refusing FBI criminal background checks likely resulted in… criminals in the administration.

To be fair, that was also the entire point - there were several Trump appointees who wouldn’t have passed an FBI background check.

If everyone, and yes I mean rich people, paid social security tax on ALL their wages we would not be looking at running out of funds in the future. Remove the limit!

Bari Weiss: 60 Minutes segment failed to show Government view that CECOT detainees are due judicial review

To be clear, this should be one of the biggest scandals to ever reach the presidency.

DOJ - after illegally scrubbing Trump from the Epstein files - is retroactively removing files they missed that would be embarrassing to the President.

It’s a complete affront to Justice.

Bari Weiss spiked the CECOT story because she wanted to have Stephen Miller included and demanded to control the language 60 Minutes used to describe the men who were brutally tortured after being sent to El Salvador without due process.

CNN reports that only 2% of the 600+ people arrested without probable cause or warrants in the Chicagoland area in violation of a standing court order had any criminal records at all.

The idea that these are the worst people on the planet only makes sense if you see them as Nazis saw Jews in 1940.

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find:

- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."
- ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.
