Several women who survived abuse by Jeffrey Epstein came together for a powerful PSA video demanding that Congress release all files on the accused sex trafficker.

“While we are Epstein and Maxwell survivors, we are standing for so many victims of sexual assault and of domestic violence, as well.”

A HUGE win for James Comey in his criminal case.

A federal judge orders the DOJ to turnover ALL OF THE GRAND JURY MATERIALS to Comey's defense team.

About to drop a new episode walking through the details of this scathing order on my YouTube channel!

Coons on Epstein files: "My hunch is that AG Bondi, having just been ordered on social media by the president to open an investigation into a series of high-profile Dems, will promptly say, 'No, there's an ongoing investigation, we can't disclose any of this,' and the president will back that up."

Major economic news!

Thanks to our latest round of state tax credits, nine companies are expanding their headquarters and manufacturing operations in California.

This will bring 2,700+ new, good-paying jobs and $370M+ in private investment into the Golden State's economy.

MTG is a political opportunist who senses an opportunity and this opportunity could damage and possibly end maga and that’s why it’s important that Dems use her signature on the discharge petition, etc.

ICEstapo detained 81 people in Charlotte, NC yesterday.

The internet is littered with videos of them using excessive force and ignoring legal documentation provided by the detainees.

Here’s my advice for ICEstapo:

Take a night off.

Go to the movies.

Watch “Nuremberg”.

Your time is coming.

In July, Trump's DOJ and FBI said there was no evidence to charge people based on the Epstein files.

Turns out Trump is all over them.

Now of course he's calling for an investigation (of his enemies) which would block the release of more emails.

America, don’t fall for it.

Trump tells the GOP to vote to release the files, and he’ll give them whatever they’re “legally entitled to.” How long before he tells everyone they’re legally entitled to nothing because of the open and ongoing “investigation” he opened into a “hoax”?

Since he ordered DOJ to investigate he knows DOJ will simply say can’t release”CAN’T RELEASE” b/c of open investigation. Also he knows Senate won’t even bring it to a vote. He’s trying to convince his base he’s innocent.
BREAKING: Trump is suddenly reversing his monthslong campaign to stop a bipartisan effort to disclose federal records dealing with Jeffrey Epstein — just as scores of House Republicans are preparing to defy his demands concerning the late convicted sex offender.

Before the reversal, even some House GOP leaders were mulling whether to support the effort to release DOJ files dealing with the late sex offender.

“I was 14… I was 16… this was me when I met Epstein… there are thousands of us… time to let the secrets out of the shadows”

Powerful ad from survivors ahead of a vote to tell us where each House rep stands on protecting kids vs protecting pedophiles.

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?
