New bombshell from my investigators on Epstein's sex trafficking operation: the Trump administration has an Epstein file detailing 4,725 wire transfers and almost $1.1 billion flowing through just one of his banks. Hundreds of millions more through others.

They told me if I voted for Kamala we'd have Middle East war, inflation, an economic slump, weaponization of DOJ, no peace in Gaza or Ukraine and incompetents all over govt. Well, sure looks that way now.

MAGAts are delighted that the WH is trolling with this vulgar AI generated photo. They don't care that it's abhorrent to real Catholics, & makes Convicted Felon Donald Trump look like an even bigger chucklefuck on the world stage than he already is.

An embarrassment every day.

Why is Jennifer Hegseth involved at all with the Dept of Defense? Where are the whistleblowers? What does she know that she shouldn’t?

Alleged sexual predator and alcoholic Pete Hegseth and his wife need to be fired from the DoD.

More outrageous, nonsensical anti-science being introduced by RFK Jr. — and now seriously considered by Republican lawmakers.
