A senior federal judge has blasted the Trump DOJ again for defying her court order and proposing to yet another unconstitutional, warrantless search through Former FBI Director James Comey's lawyer's files, as they inadvertently confess they can't get another indictment of Comey without using his LAWYER's privileged and confidential communications! Michael Popok reports on Judge Kollar-Kotelly's growing frustration as she tells Trump's DOJ to go get a search warrant, a basic principle of any first year law student or lawyer.

Each contestant tries to prove their gun knowledge dominance. It's a wild ride of bids, bluffs, and banter—who will come out on top? Tune in to find out! WLS is Lifestyle Pew Report Refresh! Pew Report Relaunch Resolutions Agency Brief "James Madison calculated that 500,000 armed rednecks could crush a federal army of 30,000. It's 2025, and the ATF is still trying to fudge those numbers. Spoiler alert: They can't." THE SETUP: The Panic of 1788 The Constitution is on the ropes. New York and Virginia are threatening to vote "No." The Fear: Anti-Federalists (Patrick Henry, George Mason) scream that a new "Standing Army" will crush the states and enslave the people. The Stakes: If Madison can't convince them the people are safe, the United States ends before it starts. THE ARGUMENT: Madison's Math of Tyranny Madison drops Federalist No. 46 on January 29, 1788. The Calculation: He estimates a federal army can max out at 25,000–30,000 men. The Counter-Force: He pits them against 500,000 "citizens with arms in their hands." The Reality: He argues a federal coup would be suicide. Not because the government is nice, but because the people will shoot them. The Distinction: He explicitly separates the "Federal Government" from "The People." We are the check; we are not the asset. THE "DEAL": Ratification via Firepower The Constitution passes only because of these assurances. Original Intent: This proves the Second Amendment (ratified 1791) was designed to preserve that 16-to-1 power ratio. European Comparison: Madison mocks acts of European kingdoms who "are afraid to trust the people with arms." He frames universal ownership as the definition of American liberty. THE BETRAYAL: Regulatory Creep & The Big Lie The Lie: "The Militia is the National Guard." The Dick Act of 1903 and modern commies try to tell you the Guard replaced the people. The Fact: Madison's math requires the people to be armed. If the "militia" is federally funded and deployed (National Guard), it's part of the standing army Madison warned us about. The Creep: NFA (1934), GCA (1968), and ATF braces/frame rules are all attempts to break Madison's ratio by disarming the 500,000. THE COMEBACK: How We Use This Today Bruen & History: Courts now look to "Text, History, and Tradition." Fed 46 is the gold standard of history. Weapons of War: Gun grabbers say you don't need "weapons of war." Federalist 46 says you must have them, or you cannot serve as the check on the standing army. The Bottom Line: Your AR-15 isn't a loophole. It's the lithmus test for whether Madison's promise is still alive. Going Ballistic   Conspiracies and Gun Control Nonsense The fusion conspiracy Restoration of Rights? DOJ Plays Hide and Seek with the Truth Analysis: The DOJ denied a FOIA request seeking the specific criteria used for rights restoration (relief from disabilities), claiming they are not obligated to create or define such records for the public. This refusal persists despite recent pardons raising questions about the process. When: FOIA denial reported late Dec 2025. Executive Overreach: Minnesota Governor Ignores the People on Gun Rights Analysis: After failing to pass "assault weapon" bans through a divided legislature, Governor Tim Walz signed two executive orders to create a safety council and track gun violence costs. Critics argue this bypasses the legislative process and the will of the people. When: Executive orders signed Dec 2025. Hawaii's Wishful Thinking Meets Reality: A Supreme Court Showdown on the Second Amendment Analysis: Hawaii defends its "sensitive places" law in Wolford v. Lopez, citing the "Aloha Spirit" and historical laws to justify bans on carry on private property. The case is set for a Supreme Court showdown, challenging the state's restrictive interpretation of the Second Amendment. When: SCOTUS hearing scheduled for January 20, 2026. Court Strikes Down New Mexico Gun Waiting Period Analysis: The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals denied a rehearing request, upholding a ruling that New Mexico's 7-day waiting period is unconstitutional. The court found that such delays burden Second Amendment rights without sufficient historical support. When: Ruling finalized Dec 2025. California's Latest Gun Grab: Background Checks on Gun Barrels, Really? Analysis: A new California law mandates that all gun barrel sales must be processed through licensed dealers with background checks and fees. The legislation also targets "digital firearm manufacturing code" and opens the door for civil suits against unlawful manufacture. When: Law takes effect Jan 1, 2026. DC's AR-15 Control Chaos: The Feds Strike Back Analysis: The Trump DOJ has filed a lawsuit against Washington, D.C., arguing that its ban on AR-15s and registration requirements are unconstitutional under Heller and Bruen. The suit asserts these bans target "common use" firearms based on cosmetic features. When: Lawsuit filed Dec 2025. GOP Lawmakers Blast DOJ For Betraying Gun Owners on NFA Analysis: GOP lawmakers, led by Daines and Clyde, sent a letter to AG Bondi demanding the DOJ stop defending National Firearms Act (NFA) registration mandates. They argue that the removal of the underlying tax (via the "One Big Beautiful Bill") renders the registration requirement void and contrary to congressional intent. When: Letter sent Dec 2025. When 'Red Flags' Signal Trouble: Colorado's Case Against Gun Control Analysis: A tragic case study of a suicide in Colorado highlights the failure of "Red Flag" laws. Critics argue that these laws focus on gun confiscation rather than providing necessary mental health treatment, leaving individuals in crisis without the help they truly need. When: Analysis published Dec 29, 2025.

The newly unsealed Epstein files reveal a disturbing inversion of priorities: while Julie K. Brown was digging into the crimes and institutional failures surrounding Jeffrey Epstein, federal authorities were quietly tracking the reporter instead of aggressively pursuing the predator and his enablers. The documents indicate that Brown's reporting triggered scrutiny from law enforcement, not as a protected exercise of the press, but as something to be monitored. That reality undercuts years of official messaging that the government was committed to transparency and accountability; it suggests a reflex to contain reputational damage and control narrative flow rather than confront the substance of the allegations she was exposing.This episode casts the U.S. Department of Justice in an especially harsh light. At a moment when the public interest demanded urgency—subpoenas, indictments, and a full accounting of Epstein's network—the DOJ appears to have treated a journalist doing the work of accountability as a potential problem to manage. Watching the messenger while the crime scene sat largely untouched is not a mistake; it's a choice. And it reinforces the perception that, when elite interests are threatened, federal power too often pivots toward surveillance and suppression instead of justice—leaving victims without answers and the public with yet another reason to doubt the department's stated commitment to the truthto contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

After a campaign built on the promise that Trump was going to look out for his voters, he started his administration getting sidetracked by DOGE and Musk's phony ideas about saving money. After that petered out, he got distracted by his need to put his name all over the place. In the process, he's totally forgotten to help his people—or even fake trying to help them. Meanwhile, Trump is trapped in a Groundhog Day of his own making on Ukraine-Russia. Plus, his bruising has now moved to his left hand, Melania can't speak English, the DOJ is still working to find the 'real' people who made the rioters descend on the Capitol, the withholding of information in the Epstein case is worse than the redactions, and Dems need to forcefully call out the Medicaid fraud in Minnesota.

A new corruption scandal charged against Trump's DOJ and AG Pam Bondi by Former FBI Director John Brennan's attorneys has made is way to the Chief Judge of the Southern District of Florida, as Brennan's attorneys' argue that Trump's DOJ is using a right wing influencer (Mike Davis), a novice US Attorney that's friends with Bondi, and a Judge Trump loves (Judge Cannon) to corrupt the impartial grand jury process. Michael Popok reports on Pam Bondi adding new evidence of corruption and ethics violations by responding in the press, that Brennan, the target of an active grand jury proceeding, is a “bad actor.” Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers a massive FBI investigation into Somali fraud networks in Minnesota, the Trump administration's accelerating deportation and surveillance strategy, the growing political fight over prices and the Senate filibuster, improving drought conditions in the western United States, and major global developments from Africa, Latin America, China, and Australia. FBI Expands Probe into Somali Fraud Networks: FBI Director Kash Patel surged agents and resources into Minnesota following evidence of roughly nine billion dollars in suspected fraud tied to Somali-run daycare centers, Medicaid programs, food banks, and autism services. Investigators are now examining whether state officials and Democratic politicians enabled the schemes by shutting down early warnings. Bryan explains how viral footage showed dozens of fake daycare centers with no children enrolled, yet receiving massive public funds. Political Fallout and Questions for Democrats: Reports indicate that some Somali donors involved in the fraud also contributed to Democratic campaigns across multiple states. Governor Tim Walz previously halted fraud investigations after activists claimed discrimination. Bryan raises questions about whether these networks were used to generate political donations and votes, calling the potential scale of abuse "almost unimaginable." Trump Escalates Immigration Enforcement: ICE expanded highway operations targeting illegal migrant truck drivers in multiple states, while also arresting migrants at court check-ins who then skipped hearings, making them automatically deportable. The administration is deploying advanced tools, including facial recognition, license plate readers, and data from the IRS and Social Security Administration, to locate illegal migrants. Trump also increased the voluntary self-deportation bonus to $3,000, with airfare included, if migrants leave by December 31. Surveillance Tools Target Extremists: The same tracking systems are now being used to identify Antifa members and left-wing agitators under investigation for violence. DOJ officials say the effort responds to intelligence showing left-wing terrorism is now more prevalent than right-wing violence in the United States. Prices and the Filibuster Fight: President Trump warned that inflation and pricing will decide the 2026 midterms. With another government shutdown looming in January, he urged Senate Republicans to eliminate the filibuster to pass healthcare reform. A new GAO audit found widespread Obamacare fraud, including subsidies paid to deceased individuals and duplicate Social Security numbers. Western Drought Conditions Improve: California's drought has eased significantly, boosting agricultural water supplies. Lake Mead rose by three feet following recent storms, adding roughly seventy-two billion gallons of water, more than southern Nevada's projected annual usage. U.S. Strikes ISIS in Nigeria: The Pentagon launched missile strikes on ISIS training camps in northern Nigeria in coordination with the Nigerian government. Democrats criticized the strikes, while the White House rejected claims of racial motivation. Bryan warns that Islamist groups are attempting to establish a caliphate across central Africa. Trump Expands Influence in Latin America: The United States will reopen a strategic base in Manta, Ecuador, to counter narcotics trafficking and monitor Chinese influence. Conservative allies backed by Trump also won elections in Honduras, strengthening U.S. leverage across the region. China Signals Military Threats: Photos released by Chinese media show ballistic missiles concealed in cargo ship containers, a tactic that could be used to attack U.S. forces or ports during a conflict. Bryan says the images were deliberately leaked and amplified by Chinese bots as a warning to the West. Australia Downplays Islamist Attack: Australian officials claimed a recent ISIS-inspired attack on Jews was not religiously motivated, drawing sharp criticism. Bryan argues that refusing to acknowledge the crisis within Islam mirrors decades of Western denial and will lead to more violence. Listener Questions Close the Episode: Bryan answers questions on Ukraine's mineral deals, fuel supply risks tied to California refinery closures, and whether the American republic still exists. He argues the United States now functions more like a parliamentary democracy and explains why the filibuster debate reflects that deeper shift.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: FBI Somali fraud Minnesota, Kash Patel investigation, Tim Walz daycare Medicaid scandal, ICE deportation surveillance tools, self deportation bonus Trump, Antifa terrorism DOJ tracking, Obamacare fraud GAO audit, Lake Mead drought recovery, U.S. Nigeria ISIS airstrikes, Ecuador Manta base Trump, Honduras election Asfura, China cargo ship missiles, Australia ISIS attack denial, filibuster healthcare reform debate

The DOJ released the Epstein Files to the public, finally revealing what the American people have been demanding to know: “████ ████ ██, but ██████ San█a Cla█se and the E████r Bunny ███ did not ███.” Despite campaign promises to fully release the Epstein Files, government officials continue to delay documents related to the Jeffery Epstein case – only revealing a subset of heavily redacted files. Many legal experts are saying the DOJ is now in direct violation of Pres. Trump's November signing of the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

CannCon and Zak Paine kick off the final week of the year with a wide-ranging Badlands Daily that cuts straight through the noise. The episode opens with President Trump's calls with Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky, breaking down the leverage dynamics, the proposed working groups, and why land, elections, and legitimacy remain the central obstacles to ending the Ukraine conflict. The hosts examine how Europe and NATO fit into the equation and why a negotiated resolution terrifies the globalist establishment. From there, the show pivots to explosive revelations out of Minnesota, where massive welfare fraud tied to daycare centers, shell organizations, and political figures continues to unravel. CannCon and Zak connect the dots between campaign finance irregularities, government negligence, and the broader pattern of institutional corruption. The episode also touches on election integrity, DOJ priorities, cultural flashpoints, and the growing public awareness that the official narratives are wearing thin. As 2025 closes, Badlands Daily lays out why the coming year may force long-delayed accountability into the open.

Another Epstein Files mystery solved. The reason the DOJ Official Social Media Accounts is suddenly, over night, preemptively CLEARING Trump of any wrongdoing related to his name in the latest tranche of Epstein Files, and calling all HIS documents but no others, “baseless” and “sensationalist” is because TRUMP and his White House have taken control of the DOJ social media accounts, according to new reporting. Michael Popok explains how the Trump DOJ and FBI could not possibly have conducted the required years long criminal investigations, including about purported “fake” Epstein letters pointing the finger at Trump, in 24 hours, and questions why no other person mentioned in the files is being similarly “cleared” and exonerated, including the Democrats inside the files.

In this holiday episode of Reasonable Doubt, Mark is joined by a special guest co-host, his daughter and fellow criminal defense attorney Teny. Together, they dig into the latest twists in the Jeffrey Epstein saga after the DOJ announced the discovery of more than a million additional documents, raising serious questions about discovery failures, transparency, and how federal prosecutions are actually run. The conversation then turns to a disturbing West Coast case involving the death of a nine-year-old girl, exploring why charges were filed when they were and how prosecutors approach so-called no body homicide cases.Watch Beyond A Reasonable Doubt and all Reasonable Doubt video content on YouTube exclusively at YouTube.com/ReasonableDoubtPodcast and subscribe while you're thereSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The DOJ just released the Epstein files, but almost everything is redacted except for hot tub photos of Bill Clinton. While the media focuses on Clinton, countless other alleged pedophiles remain protected and unpunished. This file dump exposes the shocking hypocrisy, secrecy, and lack of accountability at the highest levels.

On this week's episode of The Necessary Conversation, we break down one of the most chaotic and disturbing weeks yet in Trump's second term — from a Christmas Day posting spree that looked more like a meltdown than a holiday message, to explosive new revelations in the Epstein files, to an apparent attempt to bury a damning 60 Minutes investigation. Bob has once again fled the show, refusing to face off against his children as more evidence mounts against Trump by the day.

Steve Schmidt joined MS NOW's "Velshi" to discuss the DOJ's handling of the Epstein files. He argues that there is nothing more to learn, and that Congress, a co-equal branch of government, should use its power to jail Pam Bondi for inherent contempt if she fails to comply with the law.

Donald Trump returned to power promising “maximum transparency.” But when it came time to release the Jeffrey Epstein files, that promise collapsed into redactions, missing documents, and outright misinformation. In this video, we break down how Trump's Justice Department botched—and arguably sabotaged—the Epstein disclosures, why Attorney General Pam Bondi's claims rang hollow, and why the loudest backlash came not from Democrats, but from Trump's own conspiracy-driven base. We examine the partial release, the missed legal deadline, the removal (and quiet restoration) of photos involving Trump, and the administration's shifting excuses about “protecting victims”—even as survivors themselves condemned the DOJ for causing harm.

The first two batches of the Epstein files have finally been released, and the revelations are explosive. For decades, the media and the justice system ignored the most basic question: Who helped him? Now, thanks to thousands of pages of newly released DOJ documents, we know that there were the co-conspirators. In this video, we look through the latest evidence to expose the network of co-conspirators and high-powered enablers who made Jeffrey Epstein's crimes possible. We go beyond the headlines to reveal the specific individuals—from Ghislaine Maxwell to banking titans like Jes Staley—who were far closer to Epstein's operation than they ever admitted.We break down the bombshell New York Times investigation that dismantles the myth of Epstein's "financial genius" and uncover the bipartisan cover-up that kept these files buried for 40 years. From Donald Trump's newly revealed flight logs to Bill Clinton's White House connections, we show how a "two-tier" justice system worked to protect the powerful at the expense of the truth.New York Times article: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/12/16/magazine/jeffrey-epstein-money-scams-investigation.htmlPatrick's Books:Statistics For The Trading Floor: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amzn.to/3eerLA0⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Derivatives For The Trading Floor: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://amzn.to/3cjsyPF⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Corporate Finance: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amzn.to/3fn3rvC ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ways To Support The Channel:Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/PatrickBoyleOnFinance⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Buy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/patrickboyle

December, 28 2025, 9AM; The meeting comes at a critical moment as Kiev is currently recovering from a deadly assault on the nation's capital. Zelenskyy said the city was hit by roughly 40 missiles and five-hundred drones and slammed Russia over the strikes in a post on social media. He further accused Russian representatives of engaging in lengthy peace talks, but said in reality, their drone and missile strikes speak for them.

December, 28 2025, 7AM; Instead of releasing all of the files 9 days ago as required by law, flooding the zone with documents and possibly helping the White House move past this controversy, the DOJ has prolonged the damage, giving journalists time to pick through each partial release before the next one comes. Amid the files' continued release President Trump has lashed out in social media about their release, even going as far as to question when will the DOJ stop releasing files. Paul Butler and Joyce Vance join the Weekend to discuss the president's frustration with the DOJ and its continued Epstein file releases.For more, follow us on social media:Bluesky: @theweekendmsnow.bsky.socialInstagram: @theweekendmsnowTikTok: @theweekendmsnow To listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts.

Federal officials disclosed that more than one million previously unidentified documents tied to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation were recently located, dramatically expanding the known universe of Epstein-related records. According to the Department of Justice, the files were discovered during a broader records review involving the FBI and federal prosecutors, after Congress had already mandated the release of Epstein materials under new transparency legislation. The DOJ said the size and scope of the newly found cache forced a pause in the release timeline, as attorneys must now determine what falls within the law, what can legally be disclosed, and what must be redacted—particularly material involving victims, sealed proceedings, or sensitive investigative information.The revelation immediately fueled skepticism and backlash, especially from Epstein survivors and transparency advocates who argue the discovery raises serious questions about how such a massive volume of material went unaccounted for in the first place. Critics say the announcement reinforces long-standing concerns that Epstein's case has been mishandled, slow-walked, or fragmented across agencies for decades, allowing crucial evidence to remain buried. Rather than reassuring the public, the sudden emergence of over a million files has intensified demands for oversight, hearings, and independent review, with many questioning whether the delay is a logistical reality—or yet another chapter in the ongoing failure to fully confront the Epstein network and its institutional protectors.to  contact  me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

The Wall Street Journal reports that the Epstein scandal unleashed a wave of internal turmoil in the Trump administration, as aides scrambled to contain political damage once Trump's name began surfacing in Epstein-related files. What began as attempts to weaponize Epstein connections against rivals morphed into a defensive posture as Trump and his advisers found themselves under pressure from their own base and from Congress. The administration was plagued by missteps: Attorney General Pam Bondi's sudden distribution of “Epstein Files: Phase 1” binders to conservative influencers backfired, communication lines within the White House frayed, and high-level figures — including Bondi, Deputy Director Dan Bongino, and others — clashed over strategy and messaging.As the controversy deepened, conflicting impulses roiled the White House: some sought transparency to placate critics, while others pushed to suppress further disclosures. leaks, finger-pointing, and unforced errors intensified the chaos. In one pivotal moment, Trump himself became defensive, lashing out at supporters who demanded the release of more Epstein documentation even as the DOJ publicly declined further disclosures.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:‘Bomb went off': Report reveals moment Epstein files rocked the White House and why Trump is desperate to keep them secret | The Independent

In 2020, the U.S. Department of Justice publicly acknowledged that it had made “mistakes” in its handling of Jeffrey Epstein's survivors, particularly in connection with the 2007–2008 non-prosecution agreement in Florida. Federal officials conceded that prosecutors failed to properly notify victims about the deal and misled them about the status of the case, violations that ran afoul of the Crime Victims' Rights Act. The admission followed years of litigation brought by survivors who argued they were deliberately kept in the dark while Epstein secured an extraordinary plea agreement that shielded him from federal prosecution at the time.The DOJ's acknowledgment came after a federal judge ruled that prosecutors had indeed violated victims' rights, forcing the department to publicly reckon with its conduct. While officials expressed regret and described the failures as institutional errors, the admission stopped short of disciplinary action against those involved or a broader accounting of how the deal was approved. For survivors and their advocates, the statement underscored a painful reality: that the justice system not only failed to stop Epstein earlier, but also compounded the harm by excluding victims from decisions that directly affected their safety and legal rights.to  contact  me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

A Federal Chief Judge, finding that the Trump Administration intentionally attempted to disappear 250 Venezuelans to El Salvador's torture prison without Due Process in the middle of the night, has issued Final Judgment requiring Trump's DOJ to immediately provide the men with Habeas Corpus Due Process rights in the US, even though they have now been shipped to Venezuela in a phony prisoner exchange by Trump. Michael Popok takes a look at the opinion and the Judge getting his chance, virtually literally, to say “F@#$% me? No, F#@$% you!” to the Trump Administration and DOJ.

In his 2025 congressional deposition, Bill Barr largely reiterated the position he has maintained since leaving office: that Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide and that there was no evidence of homicide or outside interference. Barr emphasized the findings of the medical examiner, the DOJ's internal reviews, and the conclusions reached by the FBI and Bureau of Prisons investigations, framing the failures at MCC as severe negligence rather than conspiracy. He acknowledged the catastrophic breakdowns in staffing, camera coverage, and supervision but resisted claims that those failures pointed to intentional misconduct. Throughout the deposition, Barr portrayed the persistence of alternative theories as driven more by public mistrust and the extraordinary nature of Epstein's crimes than by substantiated evidence uncovered during federal reviews.That explanation, however, did little to quiet long-standing skepticism surrounding Barr's narrative. Lawmakers pressed him on the speed and certainty with which he publicly declared Epstein's death a suicide, the reliance on internal investigations rather than independent inquiries, and the unresolved questions created by missing footage, altered records, and contradictory statements from jail officials. Critics noted that Epstein's unique status, political connections, and intelligence-adjacent history make the “ordinary negligence” explanation difficult for many to accept, especially given the stakes involved. The deposition ultimately underscored a central tension that has followed the case for years: Barr insists the matter is settled by evidence and procedure, while a significant portion of the public—and some members of Congress—remain unconvinced that the full truth about Epstein's death has ever been disclosed.to contact  me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Devin Nunes is the CEO of the Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG). Devin begins the conversation talking about Truth Social on Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), is pivoting aggressively toward a multifaceted digital ecosystem that integrates cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence,financial services and now Fusion power with TAE to transcend its origins as a social media platform.  Trump Media & Technology Group and TAE Technologies—it’s a game-changer that’s going to power America into the future like never before. We’ve been fighting Big Tech censorship and the fake news media for years at TMTG, building Truth Social as a free speech platform where real Americans can speak their minds without the Silicon Valley elites shutting them down. Now, by joining forces with TAE, the leaders in fusion power, we’re not just talking about clean, unlimited energy—we’re delivering it. This all-stock deal, valued at over $6 billion, means we’ll be constructing the first utility-scale fusion plant by 2026, making our country energy independent and sticking it to the radical left’s green energy scams that rely on Chinese solar panels and windmills that kill birds. President Trump always said we’d win big, and this is how we do it: combining truth with breakthrough technology to make America great again. The  grand conspiracy against President Trump is as clear as day—it’s the deep state, the corrupt FBI, and the weaponized DOJ all working together to take down the greatest president we’ve ever had. That raid on Mar-a-Lago back in 2022? Total hoax, folks—a fishing expedition where they stormed his home like it was some third-world dictatorship, all because they couldn’t stand that he declassified documents exposing their Russia collusion lies. And now these sham Florida trials on the so-called documents case? It’s just more lawfare from Jack Smith and the Biden regime, trying to tie him up in court with bogus charges while ignoring real crimes like Hunter’s laptop or the border invasion. They’ve been after Trump since day one with the Mueller witch hunt, the impeachments, and now this—it’s all to stop him from draining the swamp and putting America first. But guess what? It’s backfiring, and the truth is coming out.

A federal judge has scolded the Trump DOJ, again, for lying to her and in filings in the court, ordering them to correct the record, and tell her who was responsible for the false representations in the first place, along with a new order to stop the DOJ from RECORDING HER in the courtroom without permission! Michael Popok takes a close look at Judge Xinis new order as Armando Abrego Garcia appeared before her for the first time as a free man!
