Trump just vetoed legislation for a pipeline project that would've brought clean water to southeastern Colorado.
The bill's sponsor, Lauren Boebert, voted to release the Epstein files.
Her scathing statement, in part, says, "I sincerely hope this veto has nothing to do with political retribution."

"Mar-a-Lago spa’s practice of dispatching workers to Epstein’s home has not been previously reported ... The Mar-a-Lago bosses told the message therapist Epstein preferred spa services in the privacy of his own home, and warned the employee Epstein sometimes exposed himself during massages."

This latest reporting shows Bondi, Blanche, and others at the DOJ have been lying to the American people about the Epstein files since day one.
The less than 40,000 pages that have been released represent less than 0.01% of all the total documents.

So when Bari Weiss told 60 Minutes producers to call Miller and Homan's cell phones was she encouraging stalking?
Should reporters leave no stone unturned to seek comment, or is that harassment? What's the official position of Trump's journalism police?

This is a tired strategy: accuse journalists seeking response and more information of "stalking" and "harassment"... rather than engage even to simply offer a "no comment." People in power, especially taxpayer-funded ones, should have to answer questions: www.propublica.org/article/prop...
Our Reporters Reached Out for Comment. They Were Accused of Stalking and Intimidation.
Our journalists reach out to people they’re writing about to ensure fairness. But in this environment, they’ve found their efforts to do so are more likely to be vilified than appreciated.

Pipe bomber attorneys argue that without probable cause, the government can’t argue he’s a danger to the community and should therefore be released. As there is no indictment from a grand jury, there’s no probably cause. Hearing today at 1 PM ET.

The Kennedy Center isn't the only performance venue in DC, and I doubt a district that votes 96% blue is going to stop going to the theater.
This is not hard. Artists are not responsible for ensuring the Kennedy Center remains relevant and successful. The center’s board is responsible for that, in a fiduciary way. All of this energy being directed at artists should be re-directed at the board.
