Obviously only the stupidest people don’t see this for the Epstein-distraction that it is. But I also question the wisdom of hyping your audience up on another story where they’re certain to be disappointed.
President Trump is now posting Obama arrest videos and mugshots. The message is clear: No one is above the law and accountability is coming.
.@BillKristol: "So the Epstein matter isn’t a diversion from the broader fight against Trump and his authoritarian efforts. The Epstein coverup has turned out to be an unexpectedly crucial battle in that struggle, and a test of our resolve in that fight." thebulwark.com/p/why-the-epst…
So, wait, you guys closed the file on Epstein without talking to Maxwell? That’s weird.
Justice demands courage. For the first time, the Department of Justice is reaching out to Ghislaine Maxwell to ask: what do you know? At @AGPamBondi’s direction, I’ve contacted her counsel. I intend to meet with her soon. No one is above the law—and no lead is off-limits.
So Congress is just going to stop working because they want to avoid the Epstein pressure from their own voters?
Capitol agenda: House GOP eyes an early exit over Epstein meltdown ow.ly/ScfM106gx6B
Honestly can you imagine a scandal so bad that they stop all house business to avoid just a vote on releasing the Epstein files? House business has never been stopped before for a scandal as long as I can remember.
Ummm they are willing to stop all House business to avoid voting to release the files? You know what they call that? A cover up
NEWS — RALPH NORMAN, hardline conservative on the House Rules Committee, says the panel will not report a rule this week for bills, effectively shutting down the house floor. Why? He doesn’t want to vote on Democrats’ Epstein amendments. He says it’s grandstanding.
If pressure over the Epstein coverup continues to build, the Trump admin is going to release files on Jimmy Hoffa, Bigfoot, and an alien at Area 51.
Today, after nearly 60 years of questions surrounding the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., we are releasing 230,000 MLK assassination files, available now at archives.gov/mlk. The documents include details about the FBI’s investigation into the assassination…
This guy is so close to getting it.
Enough of the memes and the tough talk. Go put these people in handcuffs.
If anyone still doubted that Gabbard is a bad actor, installed in her present job with the purpose of corrupting U.S. intelligence and turning it into a tool of Trump’s personal agendas and vendettas, her Russiagate report should put those doubts to rest. thebulwark.com/p/gabbard-garb…
I, for one, am shocked, (shocked!) the Trump administration didn’t keep its word. Murkowski feels ‘cheated’ by Trump administration actions against wind and solar projects adn.com/business-econo…
“They spend so much time talking about what their message should be…just talk about what you think is important.” @SarahLongwell25 and @Lauren_V_Egan discuss the Democrats' messaging problem.
Trump in 1999: " She's just 17 and she's doing great — Ivanka. She made me promise her, swear to her, that I would never date a girl younger than her. So as she grows, Howard, as she grows older, the field is getting very limited — severely."
Literally no one is panicking about this nothingburger story meant to distract from Epstein. But maybe your audience will go for it🤞

True. Release the Epstein files!
Your daily reminder of how much the government hates any sort of transparency when that light is shining on them instead of us plebes. Open it all up. thedailybeast.com/steve-bannons-…
"Introducing 14-year-old Doe to Donald J. Trump, Epstein elbowed Trump playfully asking him, referring to Doe, 'This is a good one, right?' Trump smiled and nodded in agreement. They both chuckled and Doe felt uncomfortable, but, at the time, was too young to understand why."
Fewer.
We need more electricians and less sociology majors.
Why cant we put the @RoKhanna @RepThomasMassie bill for a vote this week @SpeakerJohnson @JDVance ??
NEW: House GOP leaders will give WH time over August to release Jeffrey Epstein-related info - despite growing pressure from rank + file Speaker Johnson is not planning to put GOP's Epstein resolution on floor this week before recess — or possibly ever politico.com/live-updates/2…
No one is happier than Donald Trump that Hunter Biden has decided we should hear from him at this moment.
