Trump the Groper-in-Chief: Beauty Queen Exposes His Violent Assault and Epstein-Style Threat

Disgusting. Absolutely vile. Trump allegedly lured 23-year-old Beatrice Keul to a Plaza Hotel suite in 1993, jumped on her like a predator, groped and mauled her body while she screamed for help, then threatened her with "bad things can happen" if she talked.

This isn't a one-off — it's the same serial sexual predator pattern from a man now tied to Jeffrey Epstein, who openly called her his "prey" right after Trump's alleged attack.

Keul is one of 28+ women with similar horror stories. A jury already nailed him for sexual abuse. He denies it all, claims he "never met" them, and his team calls him "exonerated."

Enough. This is a man who weaponized power to assault women and silence them. The dam is bursting, more victims are speaking, and America should be furious.

Trump doesn't belong anywhere near leadership — he belongs in the dustbin of history with every other pedophile, rapist, and sexual predator.

🚨BREAKING: In Las Vegas, ICE agents illegally entered a flooring business’s private property without a warrant, refused to leave when the owner demanded they get off his property, and then threatened to tase him.

In the video, the business owner repeatedly tells the agents to leave. But, instead of leaving, one agent arrogantly responds that they’ll leave “when we’re done.”

That’s not how the Constitution works.

If law enforcement doesn’t have a valid judicial warrant, they can’t force their way onto private commercial property in order to conduct a search… and they certainly don’t get to ignore the property owner’s demand for them to leave.

As the agents are finally walking away, one agent turns around and starts threatening the owner, and his employees.

The owner immediately asks, “Are you threatening us? Are you going to shoot us?”

That’s when the agent puts his hand on his taser… and pulls it out.

The agent tries to say he is giving them a “warning.”

Brandishing a weapon to intimidate someone, who is standing on their own property demanding that government agents leave, is the definition of a constitutional violation.

Which is exactly why the Fourth Amendment exists… to protect people from unreasonable government searches and seizures.

And when someone verbally tells government officials to leave their property, that speech is also protected by the First Amendment.

So, pulling a taser on the owner, while standing on HIS private property, as he tells you to leave, is not a “warning”… it is a threat.

Government agents don’t get to invent authority they don’t have. They don’t get to threaten people, especially while standing on private property. And they don’t get to ignore the Constitution because they think no one will hold them accountable.

If they actually had a warrant, they would’ve shown it.

Instead, they left.

This week someone targeted my family for harm with a false report. We’re physically OK, but that doesn’t mean we weren’t harmed. I am beyond furious.

Whatever your politics, this is awful, wrong, and can never become normal. https://t.co/72wxaVLzVT

"We are talking about someone who was prosecuted for terrorism for moving a box of zines…It's objectively insane."

@janecoaston & @Timodc on how utterly stupid it is that a Texas man was sentenced to three decades in prison for moving a box of anarchist zines.

Another live podcast at Freedom 250 is sparsely attended.

About a dozen people are braving the heat for Ashley Davis’s “Practically Political” podcast.

"It's a yes or no, don't dance, you're not a tap dancer."

Heated exchange between @RepMarkPocan (D-WI) and White House Budget Director Russell Vought over stories on if people died due to cuts in foreign aid and the shuttering of USAID.

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

Rep. @MarkPocan: Let me mention a few people who've died because of USAID cuts. Rovina Naboi in Kenya. Her daughter Jane died of starvation in a refugee camp because we cut back on their food. Yagana Bulama in Nigeria. A USAID-funded special nutrition program ended abruptly because of cuts to USAID. Two weeks later, one of her twin boys died. I've got a bunch more. Are you familiar with any of these stories?

Trump's Budget Director Russ Vought: I am familiar with the press that you are citing.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

grilled by Rep. Pocan, Russell Vought refuses to acknowledge that people have died as a result to cuts to USAID. Pocan then reads the names of various people who have died because of the cuts.

[The Bulwark @BulwarkOnline]

Pocan: "I know you're a Christian nationalist by declaration."

Vought: "This is the second year in a row that you've used that slander."

Pocan: "You think calling someone a Christian nationalist is a slander? You wrote an article called 'Is There Anything Actually Wrong With Christian Nationalism?' And now you're saying it's a slander?"

Thanks to Trump, we’re all paying more for groceries, fireworks, gas, and electricity. Freedom isn’t free, but July 4th didn't always cost this much money.

That’s why we’re running this video nationwide—because the people footing the bill deserve to know who’s running it up.

Sucks to be @NRSC right now. You guys wanted Cornyn, now Trump has you stuck with a bozo and his mistress on a trip to Iceland during peak campaign time. Good luck raising the tens of millions you're gonna need to keep that Texas seat!

Lincoln acted in the interests of future Americans - us. Donald Trump acts for himself, and him alone. Had enough?

Indeed.

New research from @nytimes finds that the US government is actively doing "critical minerals" deals with FOURTEEN different companies that have financial ties to the Trump and/or Lutnick families - deals worth around $9 billion in all:

reshaping the military so that if/when T***p requires a military coup to remain in office, US military will be MAGA-controlled & obedient to his command.

nothing could be plainer to see--yet---no one seems capable of stopping it nor does the media seem eager to investigate.

This is Jonathan Ross. He still needs to face justice for his murder of Renee Good.
