Is it just me, or is mainstream media drastically underplaying the Trump mentions in the latest release of #EpsteinFiles? Why so much focus on Musk and Lutnick but not Trump?

FWIW, declaring martial law does not stop elections.
Trump abuses his power when people believe he can. If enough of us erroneously believe it, it only gives him more power.

Standard operating procedure for the Senate Democrats: Talk a good game, then surrender all leverage while getting nothing more than vague promises to negotiate over the one thing that matters. Unbelievable. And yet, not.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."

Congress,with its abdication of any oversight responsibility regarding ICE, is a willing accomplice in today's murder of Alex Pretti. It must act immediately to prevent the next public execution. Stop. ICE. Now. Call, write, visit your electeds and demand action.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

They are targeting children because they are trying incite violence. I have talked to many journalists today, and they all made the same observation: Border Patrol and ICE have been rolling around with maximum aggression, lingering for ages as crowds, gather, seemingly trying to cause a riot.

Trump is holding off invoking the Insurrection Act until we get closer to the elections. In the meantime, ICE will keep inciting violence in an attempt to justify him doing it. Then he will use ICE and the military to suppress voting in blue districts.

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

This week: we execute a U.S. citizen.
Next week: we take over elections to stop “fraud.”
It's so transparent what's going on here.
