You all know I've been after the Treasury Department's own Epstein file. It's a set of thousands of detailed bank records, a map of Epstein's financial network. Secretary Bessent is blocking its release – and he denies it's even something Treasury should be investigating.

Another wrinkle: the foreperson told the magistrate the grand jury voted on the 2nd indictment.

We now know they didn’t.

The foreperson was probably just confused.

But it does raise a question — would the magistrate have accepted the indictment if she’d known the truth?

I have been extremely critical of Donald Trump since long before he announced his campaign for president, but so far, I have managed to steer clear of making fun of his physical appearance. I find that to be petty. With that said, from now on, we should all refer to him as President Piggy.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

BARTIROMO: All of this is part of an overall conspiracy the DOJ is trying to put together, starting with Russia collusion, the Mar-a-Lago raid. Was January 6 part of that?

COMER: I wonder who knew. Did Jamie Raskin, who's the most dishonest member of Congress, know & then go along with the coverup?
