1. TWITTER FILES PART 8 *How Twitter Quietly Aided the Pentagon’s Covert Online PsyOp Campaign* Despite promises to shut down covert state-run propaganda networks, Twitter docs show that the social media giant directly assisted the U.S. military’s influence operations.
Watch the revolving door spin: Venus Welch-White has left EPA as acting director of the Office of Agriculture and Rural Affairs to become director of government relations at CropLife America, the pesticide industry trade association. Is it a surprise that federal regulation of…

“A lot of good reporting has already been done — for instance, by @lhfang — about #Epstein’s ties to the Virgin Islands and how he spent money to lobby their government to make it easier for him to live there as a sex offender.” notes @robbysoave on #TheGroupChat 👥💬

Summary of Epstein emails with JP Morgan banker implies some connection to Netanyahu as well. Banker thanks Epstein after securing a meeting.
CNN senior analyst David Gergen was allegedly referred to JP Morgan via Jeffrey Epstein, according to filings from the U.S. Virgin Islands. In 2009, Epstein said "Gergen is coming to see me today."
Email from ongoing litigation shows Jeffrey Epstein arranging a meeting between J.P. Morgan Chase chief Jamie Dimon and former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak
Denise George, the Virgin Islands AG leading the investigation of Jeffrey Epstein was suddenly fired by the governor in Dec. Now she says under oath that Epstein had “political influence over or with the governor,” who pressured her to exempt Epstein from a sex offender law.

In 2005, when Epstein was caught in Florida for rampant child prostitution of 14-16 year olds, he hired Dershowitz to intimidate local witnesses, hired the spouse of the local prosecutor (conflicting her out of the process), gave huge donations to the police, hired private…

My profile of Ken Kies, the lobbyist behind the biggest, most lucrative tax dodges of the past 30 years -- and is now the top tax policy official in Trump's Treasury Dept: nytimes.com/2025/07/14/bus…
The Epstein ‘list’ is a bit of a misnomer. There are hundreds of docs, pictures, and videos taken from Epstein’s homes featuring his high profile rolodex —politicians, CEOs, etc — engaging w/ the underage women he victimized. That’s what Trump is suppressing and lying about.
One big difference bw Dems and the GOP right now is that Republicans jettisoned Bush the moment he was unhelpful for the brand. Dems have the biggest advantage possible on the Epstein scandal yet dither bc they want to protect Bill Clinton. Ossoff is obviously right to highlight.
re: Epstein files
A piece of paper is literally what makes you American. The whole point of America was to reject the ancestral blood-and-soil status order of feudal Europe.
“A piece of paper does not make you an American. America is a people not a notional nation Not everybody can become an American. Is Zohran Mamdani an American? No! He is not”
Epstein has enriched a lot of lawyers even after death as his estate continues to employ his close aides
