Revisited: Q&A- Congressional Corruption

Simon's live update for Matt Frei's Saturday morning programme on the UK's LBC.This week:  --Rubio's not-so-threatening, but still threatening speech to European leaders at Munich.--Reverberations from Bondi's Congressional testimony continue--What will Trump do next?Listen live most Saturdays at 12:50pm or find it on-demand here afterwards.

Capitol Hill was surprisingly busy this week. Republicans and Democrats yelled at one another, Republicans yelled at other Republicans, and amazingly, some actual business got done – sort of. But it looks like it wasn't enough to avoid a partial government shutdown. For more on a wild week in Congress, we spoke with Burgess Everett. He's the Congressional bureau chief for Semafor.And in headlines, President Donald Trump is losing to former President Joe Biden in the polls, a federal judge blocks the Pentagon from punishing Arizona Democratic Senator Mark Kelly, and after a long two months, the immigration crackdown in Minnesota is finally ending.Show Notes: Check out Burgess's work – www.semafor.com/author/burgess-everett Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8 What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Today on Mea Culpa, I'm joined by Nick Akerman, former Assistant Special Watergate Prosecutor and Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, to break down Attorney General Pam Bondi's recent hearing and what it reveals about the state of our government. We discuss accountability, prosecutorial power, and the growing strain the Trump administration has placed on the rule of law. Drawing on lessons from Watergate, Akerman explains how political interference, delayed justice, and selective enforcement have eroded public trust, and why DOJ independence matters now more than ever. We also examine the dangers of normalizing corruption, the reality of a two-tiered justice system, and what it will take to restore faith in American institutions before lasting damage is done.

TRIGGER WARNING: Discussion of sexual abuse and crimes against minors. As the head of the FBI and DOJ continue to downplay, deny, and deflect from the Epstein Files in Congressional hearings, we delve into evidence that Jeffrey Epstein was not only managing a human trafficking for the rich and powerful, but that he was also intentionally impregnating girls. We also review emails that showcase his efforts to fund studies on evolution and how to create "designer babies". Then, we compare that information with allegations about his secluded Zorro Ranch property in New Mexico, which was never searched despite an alleged former staff member reporting buried bodies. We conclude by reviewing emails that detail how involved Epstein was in medical information about his victims and what doctors he trusted, and paid, to provide them care. People featured for their Epstein correspondence and/or connection in this episode include: Mark Tramo, Martin Nowak, Bryan Bishop, Dr. Barnaby Marsh, Dr. Adam Romoff, Dr. Daniel C. Baker, Salvatore Nuara, Zurab Mikeladze, Leonic Leonov, Nicola Caputo, Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem, Matthew Mellon, Leslie Wexner, and victim's advocate Conchita Sarnoff.Check your voter registration, find your polling location, or contact your representatives via USA.GOV, VOTE.GOV, and/or the "5 Calls" app. All opinions are personal and not representative of any outside company, person, or agenda.

In the most recent round of Epstein file disclosures and congressional activity, a **U.S. lawmaker has publicly asserted that a woman seen in still-released photos of Prince Andrew — shown beneath or in very close proximity to him in images sourced from Jeffrey Epstein's New York residence — was a verified sex-trafficking victim connected to Epstein's network. That claim was made during a House Judiciary Committee hearing where the images were discussed, with the woman's face redacted under federal victim-protection rules; the lawmaker argued these visuals, now tied to trafficking, should have prompted legal action against Andrew at the time. Although the Department of Justice has maintained there's not enough evidence to charge Andrew and he has denied wrongdoing, the sharp political pressure and suggestion that the woman was trafficked under the federal Victims Trafficking Protection Act mark a significant escalation in public scrutiny of his ties to Epstein.Separately, police in the U.K. are now assessing new allegations stemming from the newly released Epstein documents, which include communications indicating that Andrew and Epstein continued to correspond after his 2010 conviction and that Epstein may have supplied women — some later described as trafficking victims — to him at various residences. The files also contain email exchanges that appear to corroborate the authenticity of the infamous photo with Virginia Giuffre (contradicting earlier claims by Andrew and associates that it was fake), and raise questions about Andrew's behavior after his official role as U.K. trade envoy. Buckingham Palace has stated it will support law enforcement assessments, and members of the royal family, including Prince William and Kate, have publicly expressed concern over the ongoing revelations.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Woman in ex-Prince Andrew photo was Jeffrey Epstein sex-trafficking victimBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Congressional chaos erupts as AG Pam Bondi testifies on Capitol Hill about the newly released, and heavily redacted, Jeffrey Epstein files. With names being unredacted by lawmakers, and internal DOJ memos suggesting a lack of evidence for a sex-trafficking network, the question remains: Is the Department of Justice hiding something in the Epstein investigation?

The Department of Justice fumbled yet another attempt to prosecute President Donald Trump's enemies on Tuesday night. This time, it failed to get an indictment of the six Democrats who posted a video in November reminding U.S. troops they have an obligation to refuse illegal orders — no matter who they come from. Colorado Democratic Representative Jason Crow is one of those six lawmakers. We spoke about the investigation, Pam Bondi's Congressional testimony, and how to protect U.S. troops from being targeted by the government they serve.And in headlines, the House votes to rescind the tariffs Trump placed on Canada last year under the authority of a “national emergency,” revised government data shows President Trump's first year in office wasn't actually good for the job market, and Trump has a “very good meeting” with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu… even though it sounds like not much happened.Show Notes: Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8 What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Bread and Circuses were the instrument of control at the end of the Roman Empire. The shows at the coliseum featuring graphic barbarism, the open display of killing and the normalization of state defined enemies, all made available to the public for free including free bread. The masses became willfully bought and controlled. Today our version of this are the dramas of war, the institutionalized hatred of fellow Americans based on their political beliefs or religious beliefs, the scripted soap operas of Congressional testimonies that never produce results and the condemnation of citizens for daring to ask about Epstein instead of celebrating the profiteering and pillaging of the stock market . All of this is manipulation grounded in the roots of Babylon. None of this is of Jesus, nor does it reflect the Way of Christ.  #BardsFM_Morning #BreadAndCircuses #WeAreAllConnected Bards Nation Health Store: www.bardsnationhealth.com EnviroKlenz Air Purification, promo code BARDS to save 10%: www.enviroklenz.com EMPShield protect your vehicles and home.

Across the Atlantic, European nations have responded to the release of Jeffrey Epstein–related files with a comparatively aggressive and public reckoning over elite complicity. In the United Kingdom, Norway, Poland, and elsewhere, the fallout from the documents has triggered formal investigations, high-profile resignations, and political consequences for figures whose names surfaced in the records, even if their involvement was peripheral or social. British politicians and advisers have stepped down amid public scrutiny, and Norwegian elites connected to Epstein are under investigation, with some issuing apologies and cooperating with authorities. Poland's government has launched its own probe after identifying possible Polish victims in the documents — a sign that European governments are treating the revelations as a matter of serious legal and moral accountability rather than political spin control. This has unfolded amid significant media coverage and public pressure that frames Epstein's abuses and networks as a cross-border scandal requiring transparent and sober investigation — not just partisan talking points.In contrast, the United States' political and institutional response has been markedly more cautious, politicized, and slow, drawing sharp criticism from lawmakers, survivors, and commentators. Despite enacting the Epstein Files Transparency Act to force the release of millions of pages of investigative documents, the Justice Department missed legal deadlines, issued heavily redacted material, and has only gradually rolled out portions of the files, leading critics to accuse it of protecting powerful figures and delaying justice. Congressional hearings have been stymied by Maxwell's refusal to cooperate, with her attorney openly suggesting she might only testify in exchange for presidential clemency — a development that illustrates how accountability has been bogged down in political negotiation rather than pursued with urgency. Meanwhile, public opinion polls show overwhelming dissatisfaction with how the U.S. government has handled the disclosures and lingering suspicion that elites are being shielded. This contrast — Europe acting with visible political consequences and institutional scrutiny, and the U.S. dragging its feet amid partisan posturing and limited tangible accountability — underscores deep weaknesses in American mechanisms for confronting abuses tied to wealth and influence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Analysis: New roadblocks slow US reckoning over Epstein as Europe races ahead | CNN Politics

Ghislaine Maxwell exercised her Fifth Amendment right in a Congressional deposition about Jeffrey Epstein.

Florida officials are raising concerns about pesticide traces in bread. Industry sources share the highest samples are well below government accepted limits. The Congressional council charged with developing a renewable fuel compromise faces a February 15 deadline. 

Residents weigh in after the Mississippi House passes Sunday alcohol sales and direct shipment of liquor, the body camera video released in the US Border Patrol agent's shooting of Marimar Martinez, and Attorney General Pam Bondi faces a grilling from Democrats (and Republican Thomas Massie) in a Congressional hearing of the House Judiciary Committee. 

When Rep. Becca Balint, D-Vt., traveled to Minneapolis on a Congressional oversight mission several weeks ago, she saw a city under siege. Some 3,000 masked federal agents dispatched by President Donald Trump were roaming the city, snatching people from their homes and streets, often without warrants or explanation. Balint fears Vermont could be next. “This is not a law enforcement effort, this is about power and control and submission,” Balint said of what she observed in Minneapolis. She said that the killing of American citizens Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis “just absolutely shook me to my core, not just because of the violence and the loss of life, but also immediately the lying about these two people” by the Trump Administration. “This is about the president punishing states and municipalities that he does not feel like give him enough fealty,” Balint said. “Any state that did not vote for Donald Trump in the 2020 election, they're in the crosshairs. And we must assume that at some point this President will try to make an example of us, and we can't be caught flat footed.”Last week, Balint said she and Senators Peter Welch, D-Vt., and Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., met with Gov. Phil Scott to prepare for that potential day.Though in another sense, that day has already arrived. Just this week, FEMA denied disaster aid to Vermont for 2025 flooding in the Northeast Kingdom. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem “also oversees FEMA," Balint said. "And the President is using FEMA right now to pick winners and losers. And the winners are Republican states, and the losers are so-called democratic states,"

Across the Atlantic, European nations have responded to the release of Jeffrey Epstein–related files with a comparatively aggressive and public reckoning over elite complicity. In the United Kingdom, Norway, Poland, and elsewhere, the fallout from the documents has triggered formal investigations, high-profile resignations, and political consequences for figures whose names surfaced in the records, even if their involvement was peripheral or social. British politicians and advisers have stepped down amid public scrutiny, and Norwegian elites connected to Epstein are under investigation, with some issuing apologies and cooperating with authorities. Poland's government has launched its own probe after identifying possible Polish victims in the documents — a sign that European governments are treating the revelations as a matter of serious legal and moral accountability rather than political spin control. This has unfolded amid significant media coverage and public pressure that frames Epstein's abuses and networks as a cross-border scandal requiring transparent and sober investigation — not just partisan talking points.In contrast, the United States' political and institutional response has been markedly more cautious, politicized, and slow, drawing sharp criticism from lawmakers, survivors, and commentators. Despite enacting the Epstein Files Transparency Act to force the release of millions of pages of investigative documents, the Justice Department missed legal deadlines, issued heavily redacted material, and has only gradually rolled out portions of the files, leading critics to accuse it of protecting powerful figures and delaying justice. Congressional hearings have been stymied by Maxwell's refusal to cooperate, with her attorney openly suggesting she might only testify in exchange for presidential clemency — a development that illustrates how accountability has been bogged down in political negotiation rather than pursued with urgency. Meanwhile, public opinion polls show overwhelming dissatisfaction with how the U.S. government has handled the disclosures and lingering suspicion that elites are being shielded. This contrast — Europe acting with visible political consequences and institutional scrutiny, and the U.S. dragging its feet amid partisan posturing and limited tangible accountability — underscores deep weaknesses in American mechanisms for confronting abuses tied to wealth and influence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Analysis: New roadblocks slow US reckoning over Epstein as Europe races ahead | CNN PoliticsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Feb. 10, 2026- In a Dispatches from Planet Albany excerpt, redistricting guru Jeff Wice explained where things stand with the Democratic effort to redraw a Republican-held congressional seat in New York City.

When the U.S. Development Finance Corporation (DFC) was launched in 2019, a big part of its mandate from Congress was to counter China's Belt and Road Initiative. That sentiment was a key theme on Capitol Hill late last year during the DFC's Congressional reauthorization, when lawmakers from both parties made urgent appeals for the agency to do more to challenge China in the Global South. Congress nearly tripled the DRC's budget from $60 billion to $205 billion to be used over the next five years. While that is a substantial increase, it's just a small fraction of what Chinese entities spend each year on BRI projects. Karthik Sankaran and Dan Ford, researchers at the Quincy Institute in Washington, D.C., join Eric to discuss why they contend it's a bad idea for the DFC to compete head-on with China, rather than focus on its original mandate to build market capacity in poorer nations.

The No Surprises Act (NSA) continues in 2026, protecting patients from surprise bills for emergency care and certain out-of-network services, with key developments involving extended enforcement discretion for the Qualified Payment Amount (QPA) calculation (possibly to August 2026) and ongoing regulatory focus on GFE's and IDR's. However, there are Congressional stalls with legislation to also protect providers. In this episode of the Edge podcast, Terry welcomes back Healthcare attorney Amanda Waesch, to discuss the current NSA policy enforcement and when is it time to contact an attorney?

George Brauchler previews an upcoming op-ed in The Denver Gazette he has penned on our selection process for judges in the state of Colorado. The number of Democrat-appointed judges is staggering and disproportionate to representation of Republicans in many Congressional districts throughout the state.Ryan offers his thumbnail sketch analysis of the governor's race, having interviewed each of the presumed 'major' candidates in the Republican primary field (Rep. Scott Bottoms, Sen. Barb Kirkmeyer, Victor Marx, Teller County Sheriff Jason Mikesell).

In a recent press release, the House Oversight Committee voted to advance two resolutions to hold "President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in contempt of Congress for refusing to comply with duly issued subpoenas." The question is, were those subpoenas lawful?

Professor John Yoo of Berkeley Law compares actions against Venezuela to Jefferson's Barbary pirate war, arguing the executive has broad authority to initiate conflict without prior congressional approval.1820 JEFFERSON AND FRANKLIN

Glenn starts by discussing the SAVE Act and the popularity of voter ID laws nationwide, even within the Democratic Party. So why are congressional democrats like Sen. Chuck Schumer (NY) fighting so hard against it? Glenn reads through the lyrics of the song he wrote that will be performed live at Ellis Island during a Torch event honoring American immigration. President Trump has shown his empathetic side in recent months. Glenn takes calls from various callers, including one who was among the first in Europe to subscribe to Torch. Glenn discusses the importance of the original filibuster and why the Democrats' attempt to change how it works completely undermines what it was intended to be. Glenn reveals what's actually broken in America: the contrast between power and the people. Glenn also offers a potential solution: having members of Congress wear body cameras, just as police officers are required to do. Glenn reacts to Kamala Harris's latest announcement regarding Kamala HQ. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Our democracy has been hijacked by an elite pedophile ring–one that has always been operating in plain sight. This week, Andrea and Russian mafia expert Olga Lautman dig into the horror show of the recently released Epstein files. As students of Soviet history, we know the truth: what we know is horrific, but what has yet to be revealed is much worse. Did Epstein, Trump, and their friends kill for pleasure–how many of their victims were murdered or died by suicide? Who wrote Epstein an email about a torture video? Is that person in power, wielding influence over our lives? We also examine Epstein's freelance intelligence work, showing how he collected kompromat to consolidate power through elite capture, pollinating corruption through the transnational crime syndicate, especially the autocratic regimes of Russia and Israel.  We lift up the voices of the survivors and their advocates who demand the full release of the Epstein Files. Despite a bipartisan Congressional act, only an estimated half of the six million files have been released. Convicted felon Donald Trump's former personal defense attorney, Todd Blanche, is the Deputy Attorney General, helping lead the cover-up. The only silver lining in this extreme darkness is that the truth is finally coming to light, and American society, especially the media who glamorized Epstein, are no longer able to ignore it.  For our bonus episode this week, we answer your questions about the Epstein files, rising autocracy, and more.

E21 - CONTENT WARNING / TRIGGER WARNING: references to child sex abuse, child  sex abuse  materials, survivor accounts Watch this episode on YouTube! The Epstein Files have been released--or have they? Days after the Department of Justice's delayed and poorly-redacted release of millions of new documents connected with the world's most infamous sex trafficker, we sit down for a first look at what is (and isn't) in here. We begin with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche's attempt to fight for the right to party with Jeffrey Epstein before evaluating the DOJ's efforts to comply with its Congressional mandate to release the files more than a month after they were supposed to. We also look at a heartbreaking journal from an anonymous survivor to  try to understand before Matt pulls out some selections from keyword searches which implicate Elon Musk, mega-financier Leon Black, magician David Copperfield,  sitting Secretary of the Treasury Howard Lutnick, former Obama administration lawyer Kathy Ruemmler, and many more.  Also: what to make about the wilder allegations you may have heard involving Donald Trump, and what it means to “be in the Epstein files” at all. NEXT TIME: the most disgusting plea deal in American history somehow gets… worse?  Epstein Files Transparency Act, PL 119-38 (11/19/2025) Epstein Library search page, DOJ.gov (CW/TW) Anonymous survivor's  journal, removed from DOJ Epstein Library but backed up to Archive.org on 2/1/26 (CW/TW)
