It’s now been 41 days since the Epstein files were supposed to be released. The Trump administration is protecting pedophiles. He must be impeached for this.

I’m hearing from sports/cinema cognoscenti that FIFA has already decided to give Melania Trump its “BEST ACTRESS” statuette. It looks like an Oscar, only the head is a tiny soccer ball. And they charge the recipient over a million dollars (up-front).

I wasn’t aware that DHS has a protocol for murder….
Stephen Miller--who called ICU nurse Alex Pretti a “domestic terrorist” and an “assassin” who “tried to murder federal agents"--now says his execution squad may not have followed "protocol." There's no backtracking, no lying coverup, that will free this sick man from his eventual fate. Nuremberg.

Attacks on Federal Reserve independence, yo-yo tariffs and unpredictable foreign policy had already pushed the greenback close to a multiyear low.
It tumbled further Tuesday after President Trump, asked if the dollar had fallen too much recently, said, “No, I think it’s great.”

ICE not allowing agents to have unsupervised copies of ICE policies or to take any notes is an admission by ICE that it knows the policies are illegal.

U.S. citizen who had done nothing wrong refused to submit to finger prints or facial ID by immigration officials.
Again, it’s the “show me your papers, comrade” era.

DHS is out with a new explanation of this and "he's a brown guy who looked like some sex criminals who he allegedly lived with" (his sister-in-law's story suggests that last part is made up), and they claim he refused to be fingerprinted or "facially ID'd," which I do not in any way believe at all.
