Federal prosecutors have filed a comprehensive forfeiture list detailing the property seized from Sean “Diddy” Combs' homes in Los Angeles and Miami, which they allege were instrumental in organizing and documenting his so-called “Freak Off” parties. According to court filings and search inventories, agents confiscated more than 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant, along with narcotics, firearms, luxury electronics, and a vast collection of recording devices—including phones, cameras, laptops, and hard drives. Investigators claim these items were used to facilitate, record, or control sexual encounters that are central to the Mann Act and sex trafficking counts in his federal indictment. The materials also include stage lighting, props, and specialized video equipment allegedly used to produce and store illicit recordings.Federal prosecutors have filed a comprehensive forfeiture list detailing the property seized from Sean “Diddy” Combs' homes in Los Angeles and Miami, which they allege were instrumental in organizing and documenting his so-called “Freak Off” parties.

A once proud US Attorneys' Office that is both on fire and “leaks” at the same time. A resistance movement of former DOJ senior officials ban together to warn America about the Trump Administration. A current Attorney General who is being judged by history (and future impeachment managers and prosecutors) and is failing on national TV. A Supreme Court and its MAGA wing that woke up and remembered the First Amendment today. Federal judges fight back to protect Trump's hostile take over of Blue States and possible use of the Insurrection Act. The Epstein Scandal roars back into view, as Trump says things out loud about the convicted child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell that gets people starting to look up the 25th Amendment and its removal process again. And Trump's attempts to pin the blame on the Democrats for the first government shut down in history where the President controls all 3 branches of government (!!), backfires spectacularly, including in the Courts. And Popok is at The Intersection to make it make sense.

Former FBI Director James Comey pleaded not guilty in federal court on Oct. 8 to charges of making a false statement and obstructing a congressional proceeding. Comey, 64, dressed in a dark suit and red tie, sat quietly at the defense table throughout the proceeding. His attorney, Patrick Fitzgerald, requested a jury trial. The tentative trial date is Jan. 5.There are no votes scheduled for Wednesday on new funding proposals after both Republican and Democratic plans failed four times. Instead, the Senate is using its floor time for confirmations and other measures. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) has floated the idea of a limited bill to ensure pay for U.S. troops and air traffic controllers, though Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) has argued that the best solution would be to just reopen the government.

There are so many anti-Trump leftist sabotage ops happening, it's time for an example. These are taxpayer funded government employees. They are also recorded coup planners, with fake profiles, infiltrating state, local and federal elections, who are admitting to crimes during their group chat. Fed ID's were used to join these groups. Right? Right? Right? Be warned, these people are getting things done. It's a recycled playbook. This recording was made recently. Where are the challenges to these enemies? Who's taking them on? Our side has a few fighters, and lots of posers. Our country is being taken over from the inside. The fake government pretends to work for Trump. Overseas training is ongoing for these traitors. Deep non-cooperation tactics. Multiple groups converge. They've met with Raskin and Whitehouse. They're in every agency. Some of us are watching and recording what others won't. The Tesla take down. They take information and try to monetize it. It's a small, quiet team of nerds who are watching everything. Don't mistake silence for weakness. We see your coup attempt. This is real evidence and not entertainment. Some people should also take it as a serious legal threat.

Last week, The Real News Network published a bombshell interview with two federal whistleblowers working in the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Max spoke with Paul Osadebe and Palmer Heenan, two attorneys in HUD's Office of Fair Housing, about the “chaos” that has upended HUD under the new Trump administration, and the vulnerable Americans who are being systematically abandoned as a result. Then, on Monday, Sept. 29, exactly one week after going public, Osadebe and Heenan were fired in what the Federal Unionist Network describes as “a stunning act of illegal retaliation.” In this urgent followup interview, we speak once again with Osadebe and Heenan about the conditions of their firing, and what this attack on whistleblowers means for the future of government transparency and the future of HUD itself. Guests: Paul Osadebe is a shop steward for the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) – Local 476, a member of the Federal Unionists Network, and, until recently, an attorney working in the federal government. Osadebe is one of the four employees within HUD who have filed formal whistleblower complaints through the office of Senator Elizabeth Warren (D – Massachusetts). Osadebe was fired for his whistleblowing on Sept. 29. Palmer Heenan is a rank-and-file member of AFGE – Local 476, a member of the Federal Unionists Network, and, until recently, an attorney working in the federal government. Heenan is one of the four employees within the Department of Housing and Urban Development who have filed formal whistleblower complaints through the office of Senator Elizabeth Warren (D – Massachusetts).

Federal prosecutors just confirmed that Luigi Mangione — the man accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson — will remain under New York jurisdiction, a move that could drastically impact the case. With Blair County charges now on hold, could this unexpected decision actually strengthen his defense? We break it all down in today's Crime Talk.
For the first time in nearly seven years, federal operations have been drastically curtailed as the US government shuts down. As it enters a second week, we look in detail at how the collapse in funding for government services is affecting America at large - from the Federal worker fearing for his job, to the wider concerns of slowing growth and rising inflation. What does this say about the state of the world's largest economy?Produced and presented by Ed Butler(Image: "Closed" signage in front of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, US, on 5 October 20205.

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker described the move as “outrageous and un-American.” Violet Miller, a reporter at the Chicago Sun-Times, explains what’s going on.

Hatcheries, also known as fish farms, have long been used to supplement fish supplies affected by human activity. But with the 18 dams on the Columbia and Snake rivers, they became more important to maintaining fish populations to fulfill tribal agreements and to meet commercial and sports fishing demands. There are now hundreds of hatcheries in the Northwest, run by federal, state, local and tribal governments. But many of them are aging, in need of repair or replacement. Zach Penney is the director of strategic initiatives at the The Columbia River Inter-tribal Fish Commission. He says even before the Trump administration’s mass layoffs and broad cuts to the federal government, the Columbia basin had an infrastructure backlog of about $1 billion. Now, many vulnerable hatcheries are only able to survive with the help of volunteers. But Penney says, the hatchery system cannot continue without more sustainable funding, including more staffing and money for basic infrastructure. He joins us to share more about the factors that have led to the current situation and what he sees as the way forward.
Federal officials have said attacks on ICE agents are up more than 1,000 percent. CPR's Ben Markus and Allison Sherry spent more than a month investigating these claims; here's what they found. Then, Colorado banned conversion therapy for minors; the U.S. Supreme Court could upend that. We go into the case with Purplish. Plus, how school crossing guards are dealing with increasingly hostile drivers. And how becoming a paramedic influenced Anthony Ruptak's music.
The Crime Victims' Rights Act (CVRA) was supposed to guarantee fairness and transparency for victims—making sure they were informed, included, and respected in the legal process. But when Jeffrey Epstein came along, that promise evaporated. Federal prosecutors secretly cut a Non-Prosecution Agreement that protected not only Epstein but also his “potential co-conspirators,” violating the very law designed to stop such backroom deals. The victims weren't told; they found out months later from the press. The same Department of Justice that preaches accountability deliberately hid the deal, broke federal law, and then argued that the CVRA didn't apply because no federal charges were filed—an argument so twisted it turned their own crime into a loophole.Instead of punishment, Epstein got 13 months in county jail with daily work release, while the prosecutors who betrayed the victims got promotions. The courts sided with the government, ruling that since the feds never formally charged Epstein, the survivors technically weren't “victims” under the CVRA. The result was a legal farce that showed how easily the system bends for the powerful. The law that was supposed to protect victims ended up protecting predators, proving once again that in America, justice isn't blind—it just looks away when the wrong people are involved.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

The Trump administration says Minnesota is in violation of Title IX due to a policy that lets transgender student athletes compete in sports consistent with their gender identity. Title IX is a federal law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in programs that receive federal funding. Administration officials say Minnesota must end its policy by Thursday or risk losing federal education aid. Previously, Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison has argued that the policy is consistent with Minnesota's human rights laws.Joining MPR News host Nina Moini to break this down is Jessica Heiser, a Minnesota-based education civil rights lawyer with Imprint Legal Group.
