Could Epstein Island videos have been Putin’s growth stocks?
Newly released U.S. Justice Department filings in the Jeffrey Epstein case describe the financier as a “wealth manager” for Vladimir Putin. The claim comes from an FBI report dated Nov. 27, 2017. Putin is mentioned 1,055 times in the documents; “Russia” 5,876.

WSJ Exclusive: A U.S. intelligence official has alleged wrongdoing by Tulsi Gabbard in a whistleblower complaint that is so highly classified it has sparked months of wrangling over how to share it with Congress, according to U.S. officials and others familiar with the matter.

The DOJ probably needs a name change too.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche admits that the DOJ excluded all images showing “death, physical abuse, or injury” from yesterday’s Epstein files release.

I wonder what The Guardian omits the lede with this piece on the new release. Allegations that a convicted sex offender, Trump, raped and trafficked a 13 yo girl seem a bit more newsy than anything Andrew.

How @cnn.com @nytimes.com @washingtonpost.com and @reuters.com virtually bury the Epstein/Trump files. They post one story merely citing the release of thousands of files in the headline. That’s it.

How do Dems NOT understand that any and all "concessions" will be IGNORED as soon as the $$ is allotted?!
THERE IS NO NEGOTIATING WITH TERRORISTS!
ICE & CBP ARE OUT OF CONTROL TERRORISTS ABUSING, KIDNAPPING, RAPING AND MURDERING OUR PEOPLE!

Colorado's two Democratic Senators are joining colleagues to block funding for ICE. The question is which immigration enforcement concessions will satisfy the handful of centrist Dems who might vote with Republicans to advance a funding package.

Yep.
Congress is not powerless. Democrats must unify around an actual agenda.
1. Vote no on DHS funding bill.
2. Repeal the multi-year $75 billion funding for ICE.
3. End qualified immunity for ICE agents.
4. Investigate and prosecute every single ICE agent who broke the law.
