Trump’s former personal lawyer is overseeing the release of the Epstein files, likely deciding where Trump’s name is redacted, determining what Trump photos the DOJ withholds, and representing the DOJ’s comms as the public face of release.
You can’t get more corrupt than this.

WELKER: In any information about President Trump redacted in any of the files that have or will be released?
BLANCHE: No, not unless it's supposed to be redacted until the law, which means victim information or any sort of privileged information. He had nothing to do with the Epstein files.

Garcia: If you are a whistleblower at the FBI, at the DOJ, if you worked hard to put the files together and are seeing your work now being hidden by your own DOJ, contact the oversight committee. We have whistleblower protections.

Since his appointment, RFK Jr. has pursued a brutal vision of American health that several experts liken to a sort of eugenics. Kennedy has made it clear that certain deaths are acceptable or even preferable to a world where every child is vaccinated.

WOW: The DOJ has DELETED an image from its release of the Epstein files that shows photos of Trump in a drawer.
Yesterday, we noted that this image — file 468 — likely slipped through the cracks while officials were attempting to hide materials pertaining to Trump.
Now, it’s gone.

DOJ won’t meet Friday deadline to release all the Epstein files. They’ve been redacting Trump’s name all year in 24 hour overtime shifts and it still wasn’t enough time.

Trump has now conducted 28 boat strikes, killing over 100 people.
Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.
He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.
This is a danger to us all.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

For a GOP president—after the Iraq War—to say outright that invading Venezuela is all about oil is wild. But it is. It’s also about corruption, power, graft, and land. And we should take him at his word.

In Illinois, ICE agents have been documented swapping license plates to hide their identity. Under Illinois law, this constitutes a Class A misdemeanor.
The state has made clear that this law will be enforced. Federal agents are not exempt from Illinois vehicle and registration statutes.
