I cannot emphasize enough that the White House has no authority to withhold funds from the Smithsonian. It can, however, try to persuade/threaten Congress to reduce future funding.
“American people will have no patience” for any museum that is “uncomfortable conveying a positive view of American history,” Trump aides wrote.
"It was not immediately clear how much money the White House might try to withhold, from which parts of the Smithsonian or on what authority."

White House threatens Smithsonian funds in sweeping content review
It is not clear on what authority the administration could withhold Smithsonian funds, as President Trump tries to purge “woke” content from cultural institutions.

Russian-American contacts started at the beginning of the year after the crown prince of Saudi Arabia gave Witkoff a signal from the Kremlin. It said that Putin wanted to meet with him personally.

The obvious problem here is that the economic incentive for privateering is to resell the ship and cargo. The boats here aren't worth much and the cargo...is illegal drugs.
If it WERE worth seizing and reselling the boats, then wouldn't the Coast Guard could do it Trump could brag about the money?

Plus side of this is that I have some academic expertise in letters of marque and privateering and related albeit rather archaic state licensed piracy on the high seas so I could go on tv as an expert in something.
😳 On 12/18/25, Senator Mike Lee posted:
“Would you like to seize cartel assets as a privateer?
My bill would allow the president to issue you a letter of marque.
Time to take these pirates down. 🏴☠️” 1/ x.com/senmikelee/s...

This is key; the biggest thing that didn't happen yesterday is neither Trump nor DOJ stated that everything with Trump's name on it or with his image has been disclosed.
If you have nothing to hide, wouldn't that be what you would do?
Instead, looks like DOJ is continuing the cover-up, as Ryan notes

A key to understand how the Bondi DOJ may be trying to hide information on other men implicated in Epstein's crimes:
Note how Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche's letter to Congress says DOJ is redacting information not only permitted by the Epstein Act but also ... the Privacy Act.⬇️

Everybody demanding immediate action by Congress, remember options narrow. A "criminal referral" of wrongdoing of DoJ goes to.. DoJ. Congress has no independent criminal enforcement authority. Sure they thought about options. Don't expect anything immediate. That is the point of an autocracy.
