Epstein’s former lawyer says key information on the disgraced financier's relationships with the rich and powerful is unlikely to be found in the grand jury transcripts that the White House wants unsealed.
Dershowitz casts doubt that grand jury testimony will yield answers on Epstein
Instead, the longtime Harvard professor lobbied for Epstein confidant Ghislaine Maxwell to be granted immunity in exchange for testifying in front of a congressional committee.

If someone makes a joke about a trump distraction, they’re not falling for the distraction. They’re making a joke. Humor is important. If it weren’t, Trump wouldn’t have gotten Colbert fired.

Trump is so desperate to change the subject from Epstein that his DOJ is literally putting out press releases about Hillary Clinton’s emails.

Trump: “People don’t explain to me, I explain to them.”

Now apply this to Pam Bondi. Pam Bondi didn’t explain the results on an investigation to Trump. Trump explained to Bondi the conclusion he wanted.

This is, to me, the defining dyamic of everything the last six months. Any game theory notion of deterrence or the shoe being on the other foot ever is entirely gone. Either 1) They don't think they'll ever lose power again or 2) they're confident Democrats won't ever do the same things back to them
Budget agreements won’t matter, funding obligations won’t matter, expended funds on the basis of promised reimbursement won’t matter.

You really don’t get the impression the GOP is thinking through what this means for the second they’re not in control.
“We don’t have an appropriations process. It’s broken. It’s been broken for a while,” said Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., who sits on the Senate Appropriations Committee.

He predicted that there will be CRs and rescission packages for the next four years.

"Execs at CBS’s parent company Paramount may have dumped Colbert not to appease Trump, but to join with him. There’s ample evidence that billionaires genuinely, sincerely like Trump’s vision of authoritarian rule by billionaire, and want to do their part to crush dissent and discipline the proles."
CBS cancels Colbert as media continues to turn Trumpward
It's not just bending the knee. It's also oligarchic solidarity.

ATTN: If you're one of the Treasury employees that handled Epstein's Suspicious Activity Reports, feel free to reach out to me via signal (in my bio). I’ll keep you anonymous- as I have the thousands of current and former federal workers who have sent me tips. Please share this widely. 🙏🏻

People exploding this false messaging that I voted for a bill + funding that I quite literally voted NO on. The threat environment this morning is scary.

Doesn’t help anyone. Drag me for the position if you disagree but don’t lie. It’s out of control. Saying I voted for this funding is false.

I hope everyone notices that Trump is trying to normalize the idea of arresting political opponents for no reason

(Trump attempted a coup in 2021 so miss me with the false equivalences)

The Constitution gives Congress the power of the purse. The president's job is to "faithfully execute" the decisions we've made and he has signed into law. He may not impound, redirect or confiscate money outside federal law.
