Release the prosecution memoranda. That will explain why DOJ chose not to pursue additional indictments against third parties that it appeared Epstein was coordinating with to traffic the victims.

Two more things about the GDP numbers Trump and Vance are hailing this morning: a big part of the "explosion" comes from some weird trade quirks—but also from a surge in health care spending. That’s not a good sign for the average person.

It's pretty fucking fearless to go back and do your goddamn oversight visit where they last framed you for assault.

The new drop of Epstein documents show that a subpoena was sent to Mar-a-Lago in 2021 for records that pertained to the government's case against Ghislaine Maxwell.
BREAKING: A new drop of Epstein files has several mentions of Trump.

There are notes from an assistant U.S. attorney in New York about the number of times Trump flew on Epstein's plane — including one flight that included just Trump, Epstein and a 20-year-old woman, according to the notes.
Second big batch of Epstein files includes many mentions of Trump
After a first batch of Epstein document had few mentions of President Donald Trump, the Justice Department disclosed thousands more with many references to the president.

to Bari (verb): To attempt to bury a damaging political story—only to amplify it massively by drawing attention to the act of censorship itself.

Example:

“They tried to Bari the segment, but it got Streisanded and everyone watched it twice.”

“Sounds like someone who is concerned about lowering drug prices.”

“I dunno, sounds to me like someone who casually makes bald assertions without any basis in reality, and who responds to criticism by making his already meaningless numbers even bigger.”

As I explained in my newsletter, this is because Trump's team has reinvented millennia of math to invert what "percentage of change" means.

When you go out Christmas shopping this weekend, don't forget to stop by Cava and grab a takeout bag.

I hear it's great gift wrap for $50,000 bribes.

“You could say it’s down 87% or you could say it’d have to go up by 700% to get back to that price.”

Sure.

What Trump said was that prices were being cut by 600%, not “prices are being cut such that they would need to go up 600% to return to the prior price.”
FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you

LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times

F: Not a 600% cut

L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now

The Kennedy Center was given its name by an act of Congress after President John F. Kennedy was assassinated.

Pretty sure its current board, which includes revered fine arts dignitaries like Laura Ingraham, Pamela Jo Bondi, Maria Bartiromo, and Lee Greenwood, can't undo that law.

Thank you for speaking out @repbeatty.bsky.social, for hanging in there to represent the American people, not the oligarchs or the corrupt grifters in D.C. Removing his name on our Kennedy Center will be one of the 1st orders of business when we are finally rid of him.
