Senate hearing on Capitol Hill is tomorrow morningSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Epstein survivors have called out Todd Blanche and the DOJ for what they view as a grotesque inversion of priorities: the department has had time to sit down with Ghislaine Maxwell, manage her interview, release transcripts, defend its redaction process, and insist the Epstein files review is essentially over — yet survivors say they have been left begging for basic access, answers, and a direct meeting. Blanche told senators he had met with survivors and their lawyers, but a group of survivors publicly disputed that, saying he “has not met with any of us” and that their earlier request to meet with former Attorney General Pam Bondi and DOJ officials went nowhere. Their anger is not just procedural. They argue that the DOJ keeps asking victims to come forward while refusing to fully reckon with the credible allegations survivors have already reported, many of them repeatedly, over years.Their larger accusation is that the DOJ has mishandled both the records and the moral center of the case. Survivors blasted the file releases for exposing survivor names or identifying details in some places while, in their view, continuing to shield alleged abusers, enablers, and powerful associates behind redactions or secrecy. They demanded that DOJ meet directly with survivors and counsel, explain how the redaction and withholding failures happened, and provide clear answers about what records remain unreleased. Annie Farmer was especially direct, calling Blanche's suggestion that survivors should contact DOJ to re-report crimes “beyond insulting,” because many survivors have already done exactly that. The message from survivors is blunt: the burden should not be on them to keep forcing the government to care; the burden is on DOJ to investigate the alleged network, protect survivor privacy, and account for years of institutional failure.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Rep rips Trump's DOJ for ‘taking good care of Ghislaine Maxwell' while ignoring Epstein victims | The Independent

Jordan Sather and Nate Prince are back, and yes, they're talking about drugs. The good kind. Trump signed an executive order to fast-track psychedelic treatments for veterans and mental health, with ibogaine and psilocybin leading the charge. Meanwhile, marijuana has officially been rescheduled from Schedule 1 to Schedule 3, opening the door for actual research and giving CBD entrepreneurs a reason to cautiously celebrate. Then things get serious: RFK Jr. faces the Senate and delivers a clinic in citing CDC's own studies against their narrative, while Senator Ron Johnson drops data showing the FDA actively masked vaccine safety signals, including over 20,000 reported deaths in 2021. Plus, Pete Hegseth scraps mandatory military flu shots. Jordan's internet, however, was not rescheduled to a better tier. It had a rough day.

With the White House card looming, does Alex Pereira becoming the promotion's first three-division champion put him in the GOAT conversation (50:02)? UFC returns to the Apex this weekend. Petesy and the boys preview Aljamain Sterling vs. Youssef Zalal (1:19:00) and close the show with some classic Craic banter.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem defended her department's immigration enforcement tactics in front of a Senate committee on Tuesday and pushed back against criticism from Democrats who say she wrongly disparaged two protesters killed by federal officers in Minneapolis earlier this year.It was Noem's first congressional appearance since the shooting deaths of the two protesters galvanized widespread opposition to how the Trump administration is executing its mass deportation agenda, a centerpiece policy of President Donald Trump's second term. At the time, Noem portrayed the protesters, two U.S. citizens, as agitators, although accounts from local officials and bystander video contradicted assertions from her and other administration officials.In one exchange, retiring Republican Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina called her leadership a “disaster” and skewered her handling of the immigration crackdown and her management of emergency response.In the hearing, which stretched nearly five hours, Noem defended her agency's treatment of immigrants caught up in enforcement activities, and blamed activists and others for attacks against officers.“I want to address the dangerous environment that our ICE officers face on the streets today," Noem said. “They are facing a serious and escalating threat as a result of deliberate mischaracterizations of their heroic work and rhetoric that demonizes our law enforcement.”Since the deaths in Minneapolis, the administration has taken steps meant to tone down tensions, including drawing down the operation there. But the administration has continued pressing restrictions against both legal and illegal immigration, has been buying up warehouses for immigration detention and persisting in federal enforcement in areas around the country. Noem said about 650 investigators remain in Minnesota as part of a broader fraud probe.The immigration tactics of Noem's department have triggered a clash in Congress over its routine funding, which remains unresolved, although a spending bill passed last year granted it a significant infusion of cash for the Republican administration's mass deportation policy. Noem called the partial shutdown “reckless” and blamed Democrats for a move she said put national security at risk.Her appearance in front of the Judiciary Committee also comes after a weekend shooting at a bar in Texas that is being investigated as a possible act of terrorism, leading to concerns that the escalating conflict in Iran could have repercussions for security in the U.S.Noem blames chaotic situation for her characterization of killed protestersIn what was initially billed as an effort to root out fraud in Minnesota, Homeland Security sent hundreds of officers from Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection to the state. They were met by protesters who organized marches, patrolled neighborhoods for ICE activity with whistles and ferried food to immigrants too afraid to leave their homes.Renee Good, a 37-year-old mother of three, was shot and killed by an ICE officer on Jan. 7, setting off intense protests demanding an end to the operation. Then on Jan. 24, Customs and Border Protection officers opened fire on another Minnesota resident, Alex Pretti, who had been filming enforcement operations.Those deaths led to cries for accountability and transparency. Noem, whose initial comments portrayed both Good and Pretti as the aggressors, has come under withering criticism by Democrats and some Republicans, who have called for her to resign.Democrats repeatedly questioned Noem about her initial comments and called on her to apologize.“You and your agency rushed to brand these victims as, quote, domestic terrorists,” said Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the top Democrat on the committee. “We have ample video evidence and eyewitness testimony proving you are wrong. Your statements caused immeasurable pain to these families.”Noem said she was relying on information from people on the scene and blamed “violent protesters” for contributing to the chaos officers encountered.“I was getting reports from the ground from agents at the scene, and I would say that it was a chaotic scene,” she said.After public outrage over the deaths, Trump sent border czar Tom Homan to Minneapolis to take control of operations. Homan has since announced a drawdown of the ICE and CBP officers who had been sent to Minnesota to carry out what had been dubbed Operation Metro Surge, although he's been adamant that the president's mass deportation agenda will continue.Noem also faced some Republican criticismRepublicans largely kept the focus on the large numbers of migrants who came into the country under former President Joe Biden, portraying Noem as the leader of a cleanup effort of the former administration's mess.But she did come under some harsh questioning by members of her own party. Tillis, who called on Noem to resign following the shootings in Minneapolis, criticized her for erroneously arresting American citizens, for failures in her disaster recovery agency and for how she shot her own dog.“What we've seen is a disaster under your leadership, Miss Noem, a disaster," Tillis said. “What we've seen is innocent people getting detained that turn out are American citizens.”Tillis, who has already announced that he is not running for another term., added: “We're beginning to get the American people to think that deporting people is wrong. It's the exact opposite. The way you're going about deporting them is wrong."Another Republican, Sen. John Kennedy from Louisiana, also pushed her to explain why her department paid more than $200 million for an ad campaign she appeared in last year encouraging migrants to leave the country voluntarily and questioned whether Trump knew about the price tag ahead of time.Noem, who is set to appear Wednesday in front of a House committee, defended those ads, saying they were effective and went through the regular department bidding process.“Well, they were effective in your name recognition,” Kennedy said.

Jamie Bryan Hall of the Ethics and Public Policy Center Democrat Witness Lies About The Abortion Pill's Dangerous Side Effects/a> Ethics and Public Policy CenterThe post A Recent US Senate Hearing on the Chemical Abortion Drugs – Jamie Bryan Hall, 1/20/26 (0202) first appeared on Issues, Etc..

Description: Senator Josh Hawley is going viral again for a tense exchange during a Senate hearing on abortion pills. In a relentless 5-minute questioning period, Hawley asked witness Dr. Nisha Verma "Can men get pregnant?" a staggering 11 times. We break down the footage that has the internet divided: Hawley's attempt to "establish a biological reality" vs. Dr. Verma's refusal to give a binary answer, citing the complexity of gender identity in medicine. Is this a necessary defense of scientific truth or a political stunt designed for social media clips? We analyze the fallout and Hawley's "Spoiler Alert" response on X

Military options remain on the table; U.S. security teams are reviewing potential responses, including airstrikes. Global Reaction: European nations summoned Iranian ambassadors. Bipartisan U.S. lawmakers advocate restoring internet access in Iran to help protesters organize. Iranian Threats: Iranian state TV issued threats against President Trump, referencing past assassination attempts. 2.

The ACLU reportedly struggled to define “woman” during arguments. Senate Hearing on Abortion Pills: Focused on safety and regulation of abortion medication (e.g., Mifepristone). Republicans pushed for stricter oversight; Democrats emphasized access to care. Controversial Exchange: Senator Josh Hawley questioned Dr. Nisha Verma (OB-GYN) on whether men can get pregnant. Dr. Verma avoided a direct yes/no answer, citing complexity and patient identities. Hawley insisted on biological clarity, arguing that biological men cannot get pregnant and criticizing refusal to acknowledge this as undermining science and constitutional protections for women.
