Harvard University and Bard College are facing renewed congressional scrutiny over whether their relationships with Jeffrey Epstein helped him rebuild his reputation and maintain access to elite academic circles after his criminal conduct was known. Representative Jamie Raskin, the ranking Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, is demanding a fuller accounting from both schools, arguing that their previous internal investigations were incomplete or misleading. He is seeking records involving Epstein's donations, research funding, faculty relationships, admissions activity and institutional decision-making. At Harvard, the inquiry focuses partly on donations made after the university said it had stopped accepting Epstein's money, as well as his extensive contacts with former Harvard president Larry Summers and other academics. Epstein gave more than $9 million to Harvard and affiliated programs between 1998 and 2008.Bard is also being pressed to make outgoing president Leon Botstein available for a transcribed interview and to release the full findings of its investigation into his dealings with Epstein. Bard's independent review found no illegal conduct by Botstein, but concluded that he was not fully candid about the relationship, failed to recognize the risks Epstein posed to the college and its students, and did not disclose consulting fees received from an Epstein-controlled entity. Raskin cited evidence suggesting Epstein used his higher-education connections not only to rehabilitate himself socially but potentially to maintain and expand his exploitation of women. Harvard and Bard were asked to provide the requested information by July 1, as lawmakers seek to determine how prestigious institutions continued granting Epstein credibility, access and influence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Harvard and Bard face fresh questions from lawmakers over ties to Epstein | Jeffrey Epstein | The Guardian

Democratic Representatives Jamie Raskin and Robert Garcia toured Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas, where Ghislaine Maxwell is serving her 20-year sentence, and came away questioning why a convicted sex trafficker was placed in such a lightly restricted setting. Garcia described the minimum-security facility as resembling a “park-like community college,” complete with fountains, trees and broad freedom of movement. The lawmakers said prison officials could not adequately explain Maxwell's transfer from a more restrictive Florida institution, particularly because she reportedly remains the only convicted sex offender among more than 600 inmates. They were also denied an opportunity to speak with Maxwell during the visit.Raskin and Garcia said more than a dozen whistleblowers have alleged that Maxwell receives unusual privileges, including bottled water and meals delivered to her, unsupervised laptop use, access to staff-only areas, private chapel visits and fewer cellmates than other prisoners. They accused Bureau of Prisons officials of obstructing their questions about Maxwell's treatment, alleged retaliation against whistleblowers and reports of sexual assault inside the facility. Maxwell's attorney denied that she is receiving preferential treatment, arguing that humane conditions should not be portrayed as favoritism, while the Bureau of Prisons maintained that its rules prohibit special treatment for any inmate.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Ghislaine Maxwell's prison is ‘park-like', congressmen claim

Tommy and Andy will discuss today's news that Nico Raskin is wanted by Serie A club Atalanta. How much should Rangers be looking to secure for the Belgian? The guys will also chat about Derek McInnes imminent arrival, and what could be causing that delay as Danny Rohl is set to be confirmed as new boss of RB Salzburg. This Is Ibrox - Your number one Rangers Podcast for daily news, transfer updates, match previews, reaction, and exclusive interviews. Whether it's breaking stories or deep analysis, we deliver trusted, up-to-date coverage of everything happening at Rangers Football Club.

Donald Trump erupted in fury at Representative Jamie Raskin in a long, rambling Truth Social post. Trump called him a “loser” who suffers from “Trump Derangement Syndrome.” But the tirade was unintentionally revealing. Trump raged that if Raskin and Democrats win the House, they will “impeach me” and called on Congress to “EXPEL THE BUM” before it's too late. In so doing, Trump revealed that he absolutely does fear impeachment. This gives Democrats a good argument: The last thing Trump wants is a Democratic Congress precisely because it will hold him accountable and put a check on his lawlessness. So what would this actually look like? We talked to Andy Craig, senior editor at The Unpopulist, who thinks creatively on this topic. We discuss the deeper reasons Trump fears another impeachment, all the hidden tools that the next Congress could use to constrain him, and why aggressive congressional action against Trump would rebalance our dangerously out-of-whack system.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

Princess registration has turned into its own endurance event, and we felt every mile of it. We break down what we saw during the Princess Half Marathon Weekend queue, why more runners are walking away disappointed, and what might be behind the slower movement now that old workarounds are gone. We also talk through the bigger forces at play like field size limits, staging constraints, rising demand, and the way social media can amplify FOMO and frustration.Then we pivot back to what actually moves the needle: training with humility and consistency. We share practical summer running reminders on hydration and slowing down in heat, plus a smart pacing tool for sticky weather: the Galloway magic half mile. If you've ever panicked after getting new training paces, this conversation is for you, especially if you're trying to build longer run intervals without blowing up.Runner's World Senior Health and Fitness Editor Donna Raskin joins us to talk longevity, evidence-based fitness advice, and why runDisney stands apart from typical racing culture. She connects movement to independence, community to health, and reminds us that “old” and “overuse” aren't diagnoses. We wrap with a race report spotlight that hits straight in the heart: Amy returns to racing on the Yellow Brick Road after chemotherapy and celebrates being cancer free.Subscribe for more runDisney news, training talk, and community stories, then share this with a friend and leave a review so more runners can find us.Rise and Run LinksRise and Run Podcast Facebook PageRise and Run Podcast InstagramRise and Run Podcast Website and ShopRise and Run PatreonRunningwithalysha Alysha's Run Coaching (Mention Rise And Run and get $10 off)Johns Fundraising Link For The Special Forces Foundation Send us Fan MailSupport the showRise and Run Podcast is supported by our audience.

Big Tech is moving fast on AI. But who's watching out for the rest of us? Aza Raskin, co-founder of the Center for Humane Technology, has spent years sounding the alarm about where the race to build powerful AI is actually taking us. He joins Rapid Response to expose the incentive structures quietly pushing Silicon Valley toward dangerous territory, and to make the case that it's not too late to change course. Raskin also unpacks the significance of Pope Leo XIV's sweeping new encyclical on AI, what China's AI priorities reveal about the global race, and why the hidden assumptions baked into AI systems may be the most underestimated risk of all.Visit the Rapid Response website here: https://www.rapidresponseshow.com/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Rep. Jamie Raskin speaks to Sarah Ewall-Wice about what he calls a “completely lawless situation” inside Donald Trump's second term, laying out allegations of political slush funds, crypto corruption, pardons for allies, and the weaponization of government power for personal profit. Raskin argues that Trump has transformed the presidency into a machine for enriching himself and rewarding loyalists, comparing the administration to “The Sopranos” as he details billion-dollar deals tied to foreign governments, January 6 pardons, and what Democrats see as an unprecedented assault on democratic norms. The conversation also turns toward Trump's mental fitness, the 25th Amendment, fears surrounding presidential war powers, and the growing push among Democrats to investigate the White House if they regain control of Congress, with Raskin warning that the country is now facing what he describes as a full-scale civic emergency.

The pigs are at the trough. Trump's expected overseas real estate income has tripled to $430 million in his second term. Eric Trump is doing deals in China while Taiwan goes unmentioned and Iran keeps arming the people killing Ukrainians and Americans. Nvidia's CEO is being paraded around as the administration floats opening AI chip markets to Beijing. Don Jr. is tied to a drone company that just landed a Pentagon contract — inside a defense budget heading toward $1.5 trillion, a 40% spike with no apparent guardrails on family conflicts of interest. This isn't politics. It's a national security fire sale, and the Angry Middle smells it. This solo briefing connects the dots the legacy press keeps siloed: the foreign income filings, the Saudi-linked licensing deals, the Pentagon trough, Kash Patel's reality-TV FBI tour, and the lesson from Hungary — that corruption, not ideology, is what finally moved Orban's voters. With 45% of Americans now independent and 60% of young people unaffiliated, the rigged two-party system is on notice. The question isn't whether people are furious. It's whether that fury gets channeled into November, into independent veteran candidates, and into the structural reforms — the Raskin list and beyond — that should already be law. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Join IVA and stand up to Trump's Forever Wars. -Learn more about Paul's work to elect a new generation of independent leaders with Independent Veterans of America. -Learn more about American Veterans for Ukraine here. -Remember Independent is an Attitude. -Learn more about The Headstrong Project for Veterans, Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS), and Department of Veterans Affairs resources in your area.

So now we're supposed to believe the same people who can't count votes on election night can suddenly count feelings with surgical precision.Polls.Not just polls… vibes with spreadsheets.That's what they're selling you right now. “Trump is unpopular.” “The country is turning.” “Americans are exhausted.” Every headline reads like a therapy note written by a journalist who just got dumped by reality.And the hook? The so-called “war.” That's the latest seasoning they've sprinkled on the narrative stew. Because nothing says “we're losing the argument” like suddenly discovering foreign policy polling the minute your guy disappears from public life like a ghost who owes child support.You buying any of it?Because they need you to.Polls aren't information anymore. They're instruments. They're used the same way a magician uses smoke. Not to reveal something, but to make you look somewhere else while the trick happens.And right on cue, MSNOW rolls out their favorite prop: Adam Kinzinger.Ah yes, the man who left Congress but never left the green room.They bring him on, and the host is practically knitting him a sweater on-air. “I've watched you for years…” Of course you have.

The people running technology companies love to make wild predictions about the future. They've told us that artificial intelligence will cure cancer, eliminate drudgery and solve climate change. But those utopian visions have yet to materialize. Where are the revolutionary moonshots we've been promised? Aza Raskin may well have one. Raskin is the president of the Center for Humane Technology and the co-founder of the Earth Species Project, a non-profit using machine learning to decode animal communication. Raskin and his colleagues are envisioning a world where birds can vote and dolphins get to represent themselves in court. That might sound hard to believe – but Raskin says they're not far from making it a reality. So I wanted to ask him: what happens to our world – and to us – when animals have the right to speak?

The White House Correspondents' Dinner last weekend became the site of the third failed attempt to assassinate President Donald Trump. “I remember the feeling was very similar to when it was clear that the House had been invaded on January 6, 2021,” Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., who was in attendance, tells The Intercept Briefing. “Everybody was afraid that somebody had come in with an AR-15 or something like that.”This week on the podcast, host Akela Lacy speaks to Raskin about his experience at the dinner and later being asked by CNN's Dana Bash about whether he's thinking twice about his “heated rhetoric” toward Trump. “It was curious that, in the wake of this terrible episode, that she would try to equate the way that Democrats talk and the way that President Trump talks,” says Raskin. “He calls people crazy, insane. He calls people evil, wicked. He will buttonhole reporters and tell them that they're stupid, they're ugly. ... But we try to keep it at the level of policies and their actions.” Some examples, which Raskin discusses, is his forthcoming investigation into Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner's role in the administration and conflicts of interest, and his fight in Congress to stop the reauthorization of warrantless surveillance on Americans.After this latest assassination attempt on Trump's life, claims that it was staged flooded the internet, from comments section to social media posts to videos of influencers dissecting alleged evidence.“We are so conditioned to distrust what we are being told by authorities that people immediately began concocting conspiracy theories about it even before we even knew what had happened. Whether it was a shooting or just dishes breaking,” says journalist Mike Rothschild. He's the author of “The Storm is Upon Us,” the first complete book on the QAnon conspiracy movement, and more recently, a 200-year history of conspiracy theories called “Jewish Space Lasers.”Rothschild joins Lacy to unpack the growing world of conspiracy theories that question whether the multiple assassination attempts against Trump were staged. They also dive into other conspiracy theories currently capturing the public imagination, such as the dead and missing scientists and a wildfire in Georgia. “This is one of our more fun and disturbing interviews,” says Lacy.For more, listen to the full conversation of The Intercept Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you listen.Keep our investigations free and fearless at theintercept.com/join.

Today's Headlines: FBI Director Kash Patel is apparently drunk a lot. The Atlantic talked to over a dozen colleagues, painting a picture of locked-office incidents, security detail struggling to wake him up, and a man who thought his login failing meant he'd been fired. His team reportedly requested a battering ram for his office door. Lawsuit for defamation to come. Meanwhile, 8 children were killed in a mass shooting in Shreveport, Louisiana — the deadliest in the US in two years. Victims ranged from ages 1 to 14, spread across four crime scenes. Good to know the FBI director is on it. The Iran "ceasefire" continues to ceasefire in name only. Trump threatened to bomb every bridge and power plant in Iran and Iran rejected the next round of talks. The ceasefire expires Wednesday. The current draft deal involves Iran surrendering enriched uranium for $20 billion in unfrozen funds. Gas is averaging $4.05/gallon and the Energy Secretary basically said "lol maybe next year" on when it'll drop below $3. Jared Kushner is negotiating the Iran deal while his investment firm is bankrolled by Iran's enemies. Rep. Jamie Raskin launched a House investigation and asked Kushner directly: whose side are you actually on? In other news, Eleven nuclear scientists with classified clearances have died or disappeared suspiciously since 2023 — more than half in the past year. Trump says he "hopes it's a coincidence." Ok.  On the lighter side of dystopia: Trump signed an executive order fast-tracking psychedelic drug research with Joe Rogan in attendance as spiritual inspiration. Caitlyn Jenner left a note for Trump at Mar-a-Lago about her passport — he hasn't called back. The Strokes closed their Coachella set with a video montage of CIA regime changes and footage of bombings in Gaza and Iran. And the NSA is quietly using Anthropic's AI while the administration simultaneously argues in court that Anthropic is a national security threat.

There are too many inconsistencies in Leftism to keep up. We have “partners” interfering with serious negotiations in Iran, contradictions in education, justice, and so on, but we are told to ignore it. Leftists just want to be left alone to do their thing.And this is the show where we highlight the ironies and hypocrisies…I have a Candace Owens update, and it's so full of irony and hypocrisy, I officially named it SASSY…[X] SB – Swalwell warns Homan and NoemHow did this work out for Swalwell?I can't wait to see how much time in front of the camera Schiff, Raskin, Goldman, etc have. Tucker Carlson's son has been dismissed from Vance's staff…One minute, we're told there's a path forward with Iran. Negotiations are happening, pressure is working, the chessboard looks… not peaceful, but at least organized. Then suddenly, somebody flips the game board.Strait open. Strait closed. Deal on. Deal off. And right on cue, in walks Keir Starmer like a man announcing the weather after setting the storm himself.[X] SB – Starmer…Productive meeting. Simple message.World needs the Strait of Hormuz openI want to be clear that my position is not a lack of faith in Donald Trump. If anything, it's the opposite. Trump's consistency is the one fixed star in this whole cosmic circus. He has been crystal clear about Iran for years: no nukes, no funny business, and no more pretending that bad actors just need a group hug and a nuke summit to behave.But the rest of the world? I smell skullduggery.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In November 2025, newly released documents from the estate of Jeffrey Epstein revealed that Stacey Plaskett (D-U.S. Virgin Islands) exchanged messages with Epstein during a February 2019 congressional hearing involving Michael Cohen. The texts showed Epstein offering advice on questioning strategy (including prompting “RONA – keeper of the secrets,” a reference to Trump executive assistant Rhona Graff) and congratulating Plaskett's questioning with “Good work.” Plaskett's office acknowledged Epstein as a constituent (he owned islands in the territory) but denied that he was directing her actions. A GOP-led motion to censure Plaskett and strip her from the House Intelligence Committee failed by a narrow margin.During the floor debate on the resolution, Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) defended Plaskett by saying Republicans were effectively “arraigning a Democratic member for taking a phone call from her constituent, Jeffrey Epstein” during a hearing. He argued there was no specific House rule forbidding such contact and that the resolution was premature—“you don't get answers by rushing to judgment and turning the whole process upside-down,” he said. Raskin thus framed Plaskett's interaction as part of her representative role rather than evidence of wrongdoing.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

The events of the past week have revealed a terrifying disconnect between the constitutional remedies available to us and the gravity of the threats posed by an utterly unfit President with his finger on the nuclear button. On this week's Amicus, Dahlia Lithwick turns to two experts on impeachment and the 25th Amendment: Rep. Jamie Raskin, and Professor Michael Gerhardt. Each has been at the very epicenter of democratic attempts to access the constitutional tools demanded by this moment. Rep. Raskin explains the urgent update needed to bolster the 25th amendment, and Professor Gerhardt explains the value of impeachment, even in lieu of conviction and removal, and why right now is high time to try Trump for high crimes.

Jen Psaki shares new reporting from NBC News about Donald Trump being fed a daily sizzle reel of Iran war explosions, and growing concerns that even the most basic information about the war in Iran is eluding Trump's understanding regardless of the briefing format. And a classified Pentagon briefing of lawmakers on the plan for Iran was apparently so unacceptable that even Republicans were willing to risk Trump's ire to speak out against how the war is being run. Rep. Pat Ryan and Rep. Chris Deluzio talk with Jen about the growing consensus that Donald Trump has no idea what he's doing in Iran or how to get the U.S. out of it. Despite Judge Aileen Cannon restricting some documents from Jack Smith's investigation of Donald Trump from being made public, Rep. Jamie Raskin found that Trump Justice Department shared some of those documents with the House Oversight Committee in an effort to help smear Jack Smith, not realizing they were also exposing Smith's theory of why Trump was hoarding classified documents. Rep. Raskin discusses with Jen Psaki. Rep. Ro Khanna talks with Jen Psaki about progress in the Epstein investigation, which is being done by Congress because Donald Trump's Justice Department doesn't seem to be bothered.
