Husband of Betty, the love of my life. Father of two great kids. USAF veteran. Member of Congress. In that order. Also, empathy is good.
Deploying Marines against Americans was a political stunt by Donald Trump.
Trump is in the Epstein files. That’s why House Republicans canceled this committee markup, because they don’t want to vote on Democratic amendments to release the Epstein files. House Republicans are facilitating a cover up of epic proportions.
New - House Republicans have canceled tomorrow’s markup of the FY2026 Commerce-Justice-Science bill in the House Appropriations Cmte
Trump is in the Epstein files, multiple times. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.
A critical point here is that the WSJ dropped this story AFTER being sued by Trump for its earlier piece about the Epstein letter. It means they’re going to fight in the litigation, and they are not afraid of Trump, which should terrify him because discovery will expose all.
According to @WSJ, the Department of Justice told Trump that he is in the unreleased Epstein files. House Republicans are shutting down Congress until September to avoid voting on releasing the Epstein files. Release the Epstein files.
Trump sued the Wall Street Journal for publishing Trump’s creepy birthday card to Epstein. The Wall Street Journal publishes a second story confirming Trump’s name is in the unreleased Epstein files. I hope Trump continues the lawsuit because discovery is going to be awesome.
🚨🚨🚨 BREAKING WSJ: The Department of Justice told Trump in May that his name is IN the Epstein Files. When Justice Department officials reviewed what Attorney General Pam Bondi called a “truckload” of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein earlier this year, they discovered…
Release the Epstein Files. That story is not going away. You know what other story is not going away? The fact that Pete Hegseth is totally unqualified and lies. We now have confirmation the secret war plans he released to a reporter were, in fact, SECRET. Hegseth must resign.
New: The Pentagon’s inspector general has received evidence that the military plans shared from Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth’s Signal account were taken from a US Central Command document that was marked classified at the time, sources tell me and @ZcohenCNN The Pentagon…
House Republicans are shutting down Congress today until Sept to avoid voting on releasing the Epstein Files. Why? Because Trump is all over the unreleased Epstein files. The Wall Street Journal now confirms it. House Republicans are facilitating a cover up of epic proportions.

Satire and humor can be effective in highlighting the truth, and showing the emperor has no clothes. Sign this petition to CBS and tell it not to cancel The Late Show With Stephen Colbert. actionnetwork.org/forms/sign-the… #Wednesdayvibe
This is about the powerful protecting the powerful. Release the files.
.@SpeakerJohnson, why are you running cover for an underage sex trafficking ring and pretending this is a partisan issue? MAGA voted for this.
.@RepTedLieu (D-CA): "Why do you think we have this entire explosion now about Epstein? Because Attorney General Pam Bondi…went on national TV and told American people that Jeffrey Epstein's client list was quote 'sitting on my desk right now.' Where's that client list?"
Pictures. Videos. Plane logs. Weird quotes. Court pleadings. A creepy birthday card. Trump is all over the Epstein Files.
BREAKING: Ted Lieu just demolished Donald Trump and Republicans for hiding the Epstein files. This is amazing.
Dear @DAGToddBlanche: Ghislaine Maxwell is serving a 20 year prison sentence. It takes zero courage to meet someone in your custody. You know what takes courage? Releasing Epstein’s client list. Your boss said it was “sitting on my desk right now.” Do what she is afraid to do.
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.
Inflation rose above expectations. Beef prices are at an all time high. But House Republicans ARE SHUTTING DOWN CONGRESS EARLY UNTIL SEPTEMBER TO AVOID VOTING ON RELEASING THE EPSTEIN FILES. THIS IS A COVER UP OF EPIC PROPORTIONS.
Breaking News: Speaker Mike Johnson said he would shut down the House until September to block a vote on calling for the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files. nyti.ms/4nZtblR
