Après que quatre hommes ont été tués mercredi (25 février 2026) par les garde-côtes cubains, et six autres arrêtés à bord d'une vedette venue de Floride, La Havane a dénoncé une tentative d'infiltration terroriste planifiée depuis les États-Unis. D'origine cubaine, les passagers du bateau étaient, pour plusieurs d'entre eux, des opposants affichés au régime communiste, mais de nombreuses interrogations persistent encore autour de l'affaire. Une veillée en hommage aux quatre hommes tués par les garde‑côtes cubains a été organisée jeudi soir (26 février 2026) devant le plus célèbre restaurant cubain de Miami, le Versailles, rapporte le Miami Herald. Un petit rassemblement, avec quelques banderoles accusant Miguel Díaz‑Canel, le président cubain, d'être un assassin et un terroriste. Certains participants scandent «Libertad, Libertad» («Liberté»), raconte le quotidien de Floride, l'État américain d'où est partie plus tôt cette semaine la vedette arraisonnée par les autorités cubaines. Selon La Havane, dix hommes se trouvaient à bord, armés, et auraient ouvert le feu sur les agents cubains. Tous étaient originaires de l'île, mais deux d'entre eux avaient aussi la nationalité états-unienne, a précisé jeudi le département d'État américain. Des opposants au régime cubain Le Washington Post a parlé au frère de l'un des passagers arrêtés par les autorités cubaines. Amijail Sanchez était « obsédé » par l'idée de libérer Cuba, dit-il, et avait appelé ses parents sur l'île pour leur annoncer qu'il s'apprêtait à les rejoindre. Ils ont tenté de dissuader leur fils, en vains. D'après les proches d'autres membres de l'équipage, contactés par la presse américaine, les hommes étaient bien des opposants au régime communiste, mais étaient «peu ou mal entraînés», rapporte encore le Washington Post. De nombreuses zones d'ombre persistent, relève de son côté le New York Times. L'équipe à bord était‑elle composée « de militants indépendants au plan mal ficelé ? », s'interrogent les correspondantes du journal en Floride. Ou bien s'agissait‑il « d'un piège soigneusement tendu par le gouvernement cubain en pleine période de tension avec les États‑Unis ? » Un détail retient particulièrement l'attention du quotidien : le cas de Roberto Azcorra Consuegra, 31 ans, réfugié aux États‑Unis et initialement cité par La Havane comme membre de l'équipage, alors qu'il se trouve toujours en Floride. Le gouvernement cubain a finalement retiré son nom de la liste. « Le régime ment », réagit le site El Toque, opposé au pouvoir castriste. Roberto Azcorra estime auprès du New York Times qu'il ne croit pas à une simple erreur de la part des autorités cubaines : « Soit elles m'ont confondu avec quelqu'un, soit elles pensaient que j'allais participer. » Pas de réaction de Donald Trump Alors que Cuba fait face à un blocus énergétique imposé par les États‑Unis et que les habitants manquent de tout, la presse officielle cubaine dénonce « six décennies » de « terrorisme en mer » et de « guerre sale ». Granma, l'organe  du Parti communiste, dresse la liste d'opérations passées : « Des agressions […] perpétrées par des groupes anticubains entraînés et financés aux États‑Unis », écrit le journal. En Floride, des élus républicains d'origine cubaine s'indignent que Donald Trump n'ait toujours pas commenté l'affaire et appellent à sanctionner La Havane, dans les colonnes du Miami Herald. Le quotidien avance un élément d'explication à la prudence américaine : des diplomates des États‑Unis auraient rencontré mercredi (25 février 2026), en marge du sommet des États de la Caraïbe, le petit‑fils de Fidel Castro pour discuter de l'avenir de Cuba. Nouvelle escalade des tensions commerciales entre Colombie et Équateur Plus au sud, les tensions commerciales s'accentuent entre la Colombie et l'Équateur. Les droits de douane sur les produits colombiens entrant en Équateur passeront dimanche de 30% à 50%, rapporte El Universo. Quito accuse Bogotá de ne pas lutter suffisamment contre l'insécurité et le trafic de drogue et affirme que le dialogue est rompu. Les médicaments et l'énergie sont les produits dont les prix risquent le plus d'augmenter pour les Équatoriens, précise La República. De l'autre côté de la frontière, El Espectador s'inquiète : « Jusqu'où ira cette guerre commerciale ? » Le journal colombien dénonce « le populisme » du président équatorien Daniel Noboa. En difficulté et sans résultats probants dans sa lutte contre le narcotrafic, il « prend la Colombie pour bouc émissaire », estime El Espectador dans son éditorial. Au Mexique, le foot ancestral renaît avant le Mondial 2026 Alors que le Mexique s'apprête à accueillir dans une situation sécuritaire précaire plusieurs matchs du mondial de football en juin 2026, un sport bien plus ancien refait surface : le Juego de pelota, ancêtre méso‑américain du football moderne. Pratiqué depuis des millénaires par les civilisations préhispaniques, ce jeu traditionnel connaît aujourd'hui un regain d'intérêt, notamment parmi les jeunes Mexicains qui souhaitent renouer avec leurs racines, raconte la correspondante de RFI à Mexico, Marine Lebègue. Ilse Morales est la vice‑présidente de l'association de l'équipe universitaire de juego de pelota qui s'entraîne à l'UNAM (Université autonome du Mexique) tous les mardis. « L'objectif du jeu est de donner des coups avec la hanche. C'est très spécifique, et on ne peut pas utiliser d'autres parties du corps, parce que la balle est très lourde, elle doit peser entre deux et trois kilos. Elle est fabriquée avec la sève durcie de l'arbre à caoutchouc. La hanche est l'un des os les plus solides du corps humain, elle peut supporter l'impact d'une balle de trois kilos », explique-t-elle. Aujourd'hui, ce sport ancestral répond à deux objectifs : préserver un héritage culturel et offrir aux jeunes Mexicains une manière d'affirmer leur identité, à l'heure où le pays se prépare à redevenir une vitrine mondiale du football. Si les sacrifices rituels du passé ont disparu, le jeu lui, reste profondément ancré dans la culture du pays : la présidente Claudia Sheinbaum y a même fait référence lors du tirage au sort de la FIFA pour le Mondial 2026. En Bolivie, des taxis 100 % féminins pour lutter contre le sexisme À El Alto, dans la banlieue de La Paz, est née la ligne Lila, une association de taxis conduite exclusivement par des femmes. Notre correspondant Nils Sabin est allé à leur rencontre. Damasia Coro Bedia fait partie de ces femmes. « Mon histoire est assez triste : quand je me suis séparée du père de mes enfants, je me suis retrouvée avec les pires difficultés pour nourrir correctement mes enfants. Face à cette situation, je me suis tournée vers la ligne Lila. » C'était il y a trois ans. Au bord du gouffre, elle pousse la porte du CEMUPE, une organisation qui propose des formations pour aider les femmes à trouver un emploi, et qui a créé l'association de taxi Lila. « Elles m'ont reçue les bras ouverts. Grâce à elles, j'ai appris à conduire et aujourd'hui, j'arrive enfin à m'en sortir et à satisfaire les besoins de mes enfants. » À sa création, en 2020, la ligne Lila comptait sept conductrices. Elles sont désormais une quarantaine, dont la moitié travaille chaque jour comme taxi. L'un des buts de l'association est de garantir une indépendance financière à ses membres. Mais la ligne Lila offre aussi un espace protégé, pour échapper (un peu) au sexisme systémique qui sévit en Bolivie, notamment dans les autres associations de taxis ou de minibus.   Dans le journal de La 1ère... En Guadeloupe, l'affaire des « dépouilles oubliées » prend une ampleur inattendue, explique Benoît Ferrand, d'Outre-mer La 1ère.

Hawk breaks down the newly released Justice Department files revealing that Jean-Luc Brunel, the French modeling scout and one of Jeffrey Epstein's closest associates, was secretly negotiating with federal prosecutors in 2016 and was prepared to hand over incriminating photographs and testify about Epstein's sex trafficking operation. Brunel's lawyer told prosecutors his client had recruited girls for Epstein and was willing to walk into the US Attorney's Office in New York in exchange for immunity. Then Epstein found out. Emails now part of the document dump show Epstein immediately contacted Katherine Rummler, then a prominent attorney and later Goldman Sachs general counsel, who has since resigned. Epstein's outreach effectively shut down Brunel's cooperation, and prosecutors never pursued him further. More than 50 additional girls were trafficked in the three years that followed. The files also expose how Epstein used Brunel's modeling agency MC2, which Epstein helped bankroll with up to $1 million, as a vehicle to recruit foreign women, secure their work visas, and keep them financially dependent. A recruiter named Daniel Sead supplied girls from Sweden, Slovakia, France, and Russia. Virginia Giuffre had alleged Brunel trafficked girls as young as 12. Brunel was arrested in France in 2020 on rape charges and was found hanged in his cell in 2022. Epstein's nonprosecution deal in 2008, negotiated by then-US Attorney Alex Acosta, allowed the trafficking to continue for years. Julie K. Brown's Miami Herald investigation and her book Perversion of Justice ultimately forced federal action in 2019.

Peace, doesn't sell. We may click on kindness, but overall cash follows cruelty. If it bleeds, it leads. That famous practice (allegedly started by an editor of The Miami Herald in Miami, FL) for “real” media.Take away any guardrails media used to have in place (things like verifying content before publication, being mindful of impact of what they publish) and go to the cesspool of “citizen” journalism and there are no guardrails.So what happens if we just stop? Literally, stop. In October 2025 a group of monks set out, on foot, from Fort Worth, TX. Their message - peace. Their intention - to walk 2300 miles across the United States, ending up in Washington, DC. Their journey - the Walk for Peace - took them along the southern part of the US. They took a left in Georgia and headed up through the Carolinas and through Virginia to DC.Led by a 44-year-old former Motorola Engineer turned Buddhist Monk, the Venerable Bhikkhu Pannakara, nineteen monks made this journey. They spoke little and only when it mattered. In their silence, the message.Oh and they had a dog with them - Aloka the Peace Dog.I had the great privilege of seeing them twice when they were near and then in Richmond, VA. At the first gathering I set my phone to record and then put it away to pay attention. This week's episode is an only slightly edited version of what I heard. (I edited out addresses from local law enforcement.)So this week, a special edition of Talk Unleashed. Words of peace, and a perspective on your cell phone that will hopefully make you laugh. Even more hopefully make you think. And most of all, consider changing some behavior.It's also worth noting, they had arrived at a church for capacity of 400. More than 2000 people showed up, so rather than admit some folks and keep others out, we all stood outside, they set up a speaker and Pannakara came outside.Note just how quiet people are. How respectful. It. Is Possible.In a world where what passes for radical honesty usually means someone is just letting things fly outta their pie-hole without much care for others, it's time for radically authentic conversation. Conscious communication is simple, but often isn't easy. That's why Cathy Brooks created Talk, Unleashed – a weekly podcast of radically honest conversation about — everything. Whether her own musings or in conversation with industry leaders, each episode invites curiosity. Curiosity not about what people do, but why they do it. Who they are and what makes them tick. It's about digging underneath to reveal the thing that is most true - that we are more alike than we are not. A mix of solo episodes where Cathy shares her insights and experience or Cathy engaged in conversation with fascinating humans doing amazing things. No matter the format - it's unvarnished, radically honest and entirely unleashed. This podcast compliments Unleashed Leadership, the coaching business through which Cathy works with symphony orchestras, corporate clients, and individuals to help them unleash and untether their leadership and connect with others in a way that truly engages.#walkforpeace #venerablemonks #bhikkhupannakara #leadership #alokathepeacedog #dogbehavior #baddogbehavior #dogtraining #shiftingbehavior #brutalhonesty #radicalhonesty #consciouscommunication #leadership #Conversation #connection #TalkUnleashed #fiercecompassion #UnleashedConversation #UnleashedLeadership #FixYourEndofTheLeash

In January, the Justice Department released over three million documents, including many redacted e-mails, related to Jeffrey Epstein. “Should we share the Julie Brown text with Alan [Dershowitz],” Epstein wrote in one note to a lawyer. “She is going to start trouble. Asking for victims etc.” Brown's reporting on Epstein for the Miami Herald, and her revelations about the federal plea deal he received, had an enormous impact on public perception of Epstein and his ties to Trump. Brown joins David Remnick to discuss the latest tranche of redacted e-mails, which show, as she reported, that Trump knew about his friend's crimes far earlier than he has admitted. Brown and Remnick also talk about Epstein's relationship with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, and why she does not believe that Epstein died by suicide. The Political Scene draws on the reporting and analysis found in The New Yorker for lively conversations about the big questions in American politics.

On this episode of The South Florida Roundup, we talked to Julie K. Brown, the Miami Herald journalist who's done the most to keep the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case alive. How does she assess the massive new release of files [1:09]? We also looked at disturbing complaints of alleged design errors and defective materials as Miami's once celebrated Fountain bridge project faces even more delays and costs [19:33]. And we discussed the trials and triumphs of Puerto Rico that Bad Bunny was singing about at the Super Bowl [35:41].

Julie K. Brown, the investigative reporter for the Miami Herald, not only reignited the Jeffrey Epstein case by exposing the sweetheart non-prosecution agreement in Florida but also turned her spotlight to Epstein's Caribbean operations. In a 2023 Miami Herald piece titled “U.S. Virgin Islands cozied up to Jeffrey Epstein. Now they're profiting from his sex crimes,” Brown detailed how Epstein benefited from deep ties to the territory's institutions—securing lavish tax breaks and beneficial financial dealings through shell companies like Southern Trust. Her reporting underscored how USVI authorities, including those in positions of power, either overlooked or enabled Epstein's operations, which later came under legal scrutiny through lawsuits and settlements.In the piece, Brown argued that the USVI not only allowed Epstein to operate with little interference but later positioned itself to collect financial benefits through penalties and settlements after his death. This framing suggested that the government was both complicit in allowing the criminal enterprise to flourish and opportunistic in profiting from its collapse. The article sparked strong pushback, including from the University of the Virgin Islands, which issued a public response disputing some of the claims. The controversy reflected the tension between investigative reporting that sought to highlight systemic failures and local institutions that rejected the characterization of their role.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:U.S. Virgin Islands profiting from Jeffrey Epstein's crimes | Miami Herald

New FBI documents reveal that in July 2006, Trump called Palm Beach Police Chief Michael Reiter to discuss Jeffrey Epstein's activities with minors. Trump told the chief "everyone knew" what Epstein was doing with teenage girls and described Ghislaine Maxwell as "evil." This FBI 302 interview report from October 2019 contradicts Trump's repeated denials about having knowledge of Epstein's crimes. The Miami Herald investigation by journalist Julie K. Brown uncovered this previously unreported phone call between Trump and Palm Beach police during the initial Epstein investigation. Chief Reiter's interview details how the case developed in 2005 when a 14-year-old victim came forward, leading to surveillance of Epstein's Palm Beach home where police observed underage girls with backpacks and braces. The investigation faced obstacles when US Attorney Alex Acosta gave Epstein a controversial plea deal in 2007 despite evidence involving nearly 40 underage victims. The original 53-count federal indictment would have resulted in 240 years to multiple life sentences, but Epstein served only 13 months in county jail with work release privileges. Palm Beach police referred the case to federal authorities in 2006, and Trump was among the first to contact police when news broke about the Epstein investigation. The FBI documents show Trump admitted being around Epstein when teenagers were present, directly contradicting his 2019 statement claiming he had no knowledge of Epstein molesting girls. Detective Joe Recarey led the Palm Beach investigation until his death in 2018, and boxes of evidence from his home were turned over to the FBI in 2019, leading to renewed federal charges against Epstein before his death in prison.

The Department of Justice unredacted some names in the released Epstein files after some Congress members accused the DOJ of protecting convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein's alleged co-conspirators. Spencer Kuvin, an attorney representing several Epstein survivors, talks about why he thinks the DOJ has engaged in a "misguided approach" to reviewing the files. Then, in Haiti, a presidential council that was meant to promote stability and move the country towards elections has ended, and the country is still plagued by violence, instability and hunger.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for February 8, 2026 is: meme • MEEM • noun Meme is used popularly to refer to an amusing or interesting picture, video, etc. that is spread widely online. It can also refer to an idea, behavior, style, or usage that spreads from person to person within a culture. // Though the two friends now live on opposite coasts, they still keep in touch constantly, texting and sending their favorite funny cat memes back and forth. See the entry > Examples: “Shane Hinton, a meteorologist for CBS News Miami, posted a Facebook meme earlier this week that showed a 70-degree spread between Miami's near record 85 and Minneapolis' 15.” — Howard Cohen, The Miami Herald, 5 Dec. 2025 Did you know? In his 1976 book The Selfish Gene, British scientist Richard Dawkins defended his newly coined word meme, which he defined as “a unit of cultural transmission.” Having first considered, then rejected, mimeme, he wrote: “Mimeme comes from a suitable Greek root, but I want a monosyllable that sounds a bit like gene.” (The suitable Greek root was mim-, meaning “mime” or “mimic.” The English suffix -eme indicates a distinctive unit of language structure, as in grapheme, lexeme, and phoneme.) Like any good meme, meme caught on and evolved, eventually developing the meaning known to anyone who spends time online, where it's most often used to refer to any one of those silly captioned photos that the Internet can't seem to get enough of.

OA1233 - We are not conspiracy theorist type people. But... yeah man I don't know. But also, so much more in these files to talk about. If you know anything about the federal government's 2007 plea deal with Jeffrey Epstein you know that it was bad. But newly-released documents from the Epstein files show that it was actually much worse than that! Thanks to a newly-released legal memo, a draft indictment, and internal emails between prosecutors we now have a much better understanding of the disagreements within US Attorney for the District of Southern Florida Alex Acosta's office as they finalized the terms of a much-too-friendly agreement between the US government and a billionaire pedophile which a federal appeals court would later call “a national disgrace.” Matt has the receipts for this special emergency episode.

What most people don't realize is that the Miami Herald didn't “expose” Jeffrey Epstein's sweetheart deal — three of his victims and their lawyers did. Long before the headlines, those women and attorneys Paul Cassell and Brad Edwards had been fighting for nearly a decade to uncover how then–U.S. Attorney Alexander Acosta secretly gave Epstein and his network immunity from prosecution. Acosta's office violated the Crime Victims Rights Act by hiding the non-prosecution agreement and misleading the victims into thinking the federal case was still alive. The Justice Department fought the victims at every turn, denying them information and arguing they had no rights, but Cassell and Edwards refused to quit. Their persistence forced the truth out: Epstein's elite legal team dictated the deal, silenced victims, and helped him serve just 13 cushy months while his crimes went largely untouched.The case exposed far more than Epstein's depravity — it revealed a justice system built to serve power, not people. Poor, vulnerable girls were targeted, dismissed, and smeared while prosecutors and billionaires protected one another. The same biases that fail defendants crushed the victims too, showing how easily money warps the law. But despite every obstacle, those women and their lawyers won a ruling confirming the government's illegal concealment, proving that even against billionaires and corrupt officials, truth can still claw its way to the surface. Their courage didn't just expose Epstein — it ripped the mask off the system that shielded him.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Synopsis:  A crime against journalism': Tune in as experts dissect corporate media's priorities - serving shareholders or informing voters?This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donateDescription:  Journalism is at an inflection point. Under a hail of lawsuits, firings, new hires, and mercenary mergers, the business of media is in shambles even as the need for reliable, truthful information to reach voters is greater than ever. Where does that leave journalists? In this episode, Laura and her guests discuss the money media's dangerous denials and obfuscations, the problem with bothsidesism in a time of fascism, and the coverage of Renee Good's killing in Minneapolis. Dean Obeidallah is a lawyer, writer, award-winning comedian and host of SiriusXM radio's national daily program “The Dean Obeidallah Show”. Joy Reid, formerly host of the award-winning ReidOut on MSNBC, is a best-selling author, and host of the Joy Reid Show on YouTube. The decline of legacy media isn't all bad news — especially for those, like Palestinians and others, who were always shut out of it — and the rise of independent platforms, savvy media consumers and new mechanisms for collaboration just might usher in a new age of great journalism, just when we need it. Join Dean, Joy and Laura for this rich conversation on resistance, reporting, and survival.  [This conversation was recorded on January 14, 2026]“What I would like corporate media to understand, their job is not to make money for shareholders and executives to get bonuses, but serve the people, make them smarter, even if it means losing access. I know that's a lot to ask, but that's what I would like because an educated, informed electorate is the key to saving this republic.” - Dean Obeidallah“It is a crime against journalism for the editorial director of a news network to say our job is not to deliver the news, but to go viral. That's crazy.”- Joy ReidGuests:•  Dean Obeidallah: Host of SiriusXM radio's The Dean Obeidallah Show• Joy Reid: Host of The Joy Reid ShowWatch the episode released on YouTube; PBS World Channel 11:30am ET Sundays and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

"We told the truth back then. They just didn't care."Following his release from prison in 2009, Jeffrey Epstein set out to re-enter the inner circle of high society. Having been branded a sex offender by federal prosecutors, Epstein quickly found that there was little resistance to him moving around in the same crowd of wealthy and influential people he'd spent the past three decades cultivating. But still, the conviction threatened to complicate his life.So Epstein withdrew to Little Saint James, a private island in the U.S. Virgin Islands he'd purchased back in 1998. He'd spent years renovating it to suit his lavish lifestyle, and 2009 became the perfect time for Epstein to reshape his life around it. Unfortunately for him, though, the case against him refused to go away quietly. And in 2019, the Miami Herald began publishing a series of articles centered around that original case...Part 5/7Research & writing by Amelia White and Ira RaiHosting, production, and additional research & writing by Micheal WhelanLearn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved--3266604/support.

After the discovery of the burnt car that belonged to millionaire Houston oilman Ed Baker, speculation was abound. Though the medical examiner finally ruled that the body found inside was indeed Edward Gerald Baker's, some folks didn't buy the ruling. They insisted the oilman had faked his own death and skipped country to avoid the lawsuits against his company or worse – jail time. Harris County Sheriff's Investigators, however, didn't really buy that. Though they seemed to believe that Ed's death was the result of an elaborately planned suicide, they couldn't prove it and still had to leave their minds open to the theory that the man was killed as the result of a mob hit. To this day, exactly what happened to Ed Baker remains a mystery. Part 2 of 2. If you have any information about Edward Gerald Baker's case, please contact Crime Stoppers Houston at 713-222-8477. Inc.

In this January 6 episode of Badlands Daily, CannCon delivers a solo broadcast focused on breaking developments following the capture of Nicolás Maduro and the unfolding political, legal, and media fallout. The episode begins with coverage of Maduro's Manhattan court appearance, his claims of legitimacy, and questions surrounding custody, prosecution, and sovereign status. CannCon examines competing narratives around whether Maduro's removal constitutes regime change, highlighting the succession of power in Venezuela and the role of figures such as Delcy Rodríguez and Diosdado Cabello. The discussion expands into media coverage from outlets including ABC News, Reuters, and the Miami Herald, with analysis of how language and framing are being used to shape public perception. Additional segments cover Cuban involvement in Venezuela, statements from U.S. officials, and reactions from Latin American leaders. The episode also addresses domestic stories, including large-scale Medicaid and childcare fraud investigations, immigration enforcement actions, and commentary on the Insurrection Act. Throughout the show, CannCon engages directly with live chat, reacts to clips, and walks through headlines shaping the day's news cycle.

When firefighters discovered the body of forty-year-old Terry King inside the charred remains of his Cantonment, Florida home in November 2001, they assumed the man had been asleep when the fire broke out and died as a result. Upon further inspection, investigators found that King hadn't died as a result of the fire, but from severe blunt force trauma to his head. And even more alarming than that was the fact that King's two boys, thirteen-year-old Derek and twelve-year-old Alex, were missing.Having occurred immediately in the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Terry King's murder could have easily been one of many tragedies lost in the fog of national trauma and grief; however, when King's killers were arrested and identified in the days that followed, the story was so shocking, and the motive so heartbreaking, that it managed to break through the wall-to-wall coverage of the attacks. ReferencesAssociated Press. 2002.

CNN's Katelyn Polantz has learned the Justice Department's leadership asked career prosecutors in Florida Tuesday to volunteer over the “next several days” to help redact the Epstein files in the latest Trump administration push toward releasing the hundreds of thousands of photos, internal memos and other evidence around the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Virginia Democratic Rep. James Walkinshaw, who serves on the Oversight Committee, joins to talk about the latest developments.  Plus, Julie K.

Rachel Maddow shares a look at how outrage over government corruption in Bulgaria prompted massive protests and eventually the resignation of the prime minister and his government. And in the United States, for all of Donald Trump's unpopular policies being protested across the country, the self-dealing and corruption that has become his administration's hallmark may ultimately be what leads to Trump's downfall. Julie K. Brown, investigative reporter for the Miami Herald who first exposed the scandal of how the Jeffrey Epstein case was handed, talks with Rachel Maddow about feedback she is receiving from survivors of Epstein's abuse about finding their own names in released documents despite heavy redactions that appear to make a greater priority of protecting the identities and information of people involved with Epstein than to protect his victims as the law instructs.Rep. Jamie Raskin joins to discuss how an ownership change and recent editorial decisions by CBS News is raising concerns that Donald Trump and the billionaires who support him are making progress on building state media.

My colleague Ross Douthat talks to the journalist who exposed Jeffrey Epstein. This episode of “Interesting Times,” with the Miami Herald investigative journalist Julie K. Brown, came out back in July. But since Epstein has very much stayed in the news, I wanted to share it now. The conversation is such a fascinating and helpful explainer of the whole case, and the questions that remain unanswered — with the woman whose reporting led to Epstein's re-arrest.  If you haven't had a chance to check out “Interesting Times” this year, you really should. The team has produced so many great episodes, especially with leading thinkers and activists on the right.
