🚨: New video completely destroys DHS’s story. Renee Good arrived four minutes before ICE. No one was stuck. Cars were moving freely. She wasn’t blocking anything. ICE showed up suddenly and aggressively and then they lied about it.

OMFG. "Today, January 7, 2026, Donald Trump signed a presidential memorandum directing the withdrawal of the United States from 66 international organizations—35 non-UN entities and 31 UN-affiliated bodies. This unprecedented action represents the most comprehensive retreat…

It was Stephen Miller's idea to start bombing drug boats off the coast of Venezuela. Not to stop drugs, but to start a war, so that Trump could again invoke the Alien Enemies Act, to expedite deportations of hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans the administration stripped of…

Trump acolytes at the US Postal Service quietly issued a rule on Christmas Eve that will allow some branches, in critical electoral battleground locations, to reject a ballot by delaying a postmark. shero.substack.com/p/new-usps-mai…

Not sure if people on this site know that the Biden DOJ investigated the Minnesota fraud scheme and that dozens of people have already been convicted.

Someone at FBI/DOJ was monitoring reporter Julie Brown, who had broken the Epstein story, right around the time of Epstein's arrest on July 8, 2019: these flights were on July 6 and 8. The public deserves to know when her records were searched for. Before the arrest, or after?

Does somebody at the DOJ want to tell me why my American Airlines booking information and flights in July 2019 are part of the Epstein files (attached to a grand jury subpoena)? As the flight itinerary includes my maiden name (and I did book this flight) why was the DOJ…

After our reporting, the DOJ just said it “found” over 1 million new documents from the SDNY.

This email from Epstein SDNY prosecutors in 2020 suggests there are approximately “1.2 million records being imaged” in just this one hard drive. There are likely other hard drives as well. I would not be surprised if there are actually tens of millions of records.

Perfectly Orwellian. The US is now sanctioning those who monitor — not censor, mind you, just monitor — hate speech and disinformation, all in the name of “free speech.”

I was there. There is no reason not to release the video and transcript. If @Jim_Jordan refused Jack Smith’s request for a public hearing — like every other Special Counsel — because he allegedly wanted to avoid the 5-minute rule, he got that. Now #releasethetranscript.

Former Special Counsel Jack Smith asked House Judiciary Cmte to promptly release "the full videotape" of his deposition with GOP-led panel this month To "ensure that the American people can hear the facts directly from Mr. Smith, rather than through second-hand accounts"

"The most conspicuous retreat came from Republicans in Congress. Many entered the Trump era with reputations as institutionalists, constitutional conservatives, or moral voices. They left it having trained the country to expect silence in the face of abuse. Mitch McConnell is…

There are so many Trump references in the overnight Epstein document dump that the DOJ had to specifically mention it in it's tweet this morning. They did not give this same warning for documents related to President Clinton or any other individual.

I was right:

I expect the guidance was simple; Redact all mentions of Trump, Redact all Republican office holders, Redact all Republican donor names, Redact all Republican lawyers names.

This NYT report on how the Tate brothers escaped Romania to the U.S. is absolutely extraordinary work and a must-read easily missed. I highly recommend reading every word until the end. Note every name that supported them. And the toxicity of the activities and evidence. 1/2
