ATTN: If you’re one of the 1,000 FBI agents who reviewed the Epstein files, 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. 🙏🏻

For Iowans like Nancy, Medicaid was a life-saver. It's a shame Rep. Miller Meeks refuses to hold public meetings to hear directly from the Iowans Medicaid benefits.
Thank you Nancy, for sharing your story.

Every time the Justice Department tries to claim the military isn’t actually banning transgender people, Pete Hegseth tweets that it is.
This is likely to come up at oral arguments at the DC Circuit Court of appeals — conveniently scheduled for tomorrow.
