Donald Trump’s name is in the Epstein files and @JDVance has been plotting with the AG and FBI Director to cover it up

Release the names! Democrats, Republicans, billionaires, or not.

What are you afraid of, @JDVance?

[Jon Favreau @jonfavs]

I think today was an inflection point - maybe small, but real.

The President, having launched a global trade war, feted in the Oval Office a Central American dictator who runs a mega-prison known for starvation and torture - a prison to which our government has, by its own admission, sent at least one person "in error."

They disappeared a man without a single criminal charge who's lived and worked here for 15 years - who was alleged to be a member of a gang based in a state he never lived by one anonymous informant. No other evidence. No trial. No conviction. Nothing but a legal order that he not be deported to El Salvador, where he's now serving a life sentence.

The Supreme Court just ruled, without any noted dissent, that the government must facilitate the man's release.

But Trump and his dictator friend said no. They laughed. They mocked the journalist who asked whether they'd abide by the Court's order. The Attorney General, the Secretary of State, and the White House Deputy Chief all lied about the facts of the case. Then the President repeated his proposal to send American citizens to the dictator's prison, and asked him to build five more.

The same day we found out that the government knowingly disappeared a PhD student for nothing but an op-ed, a man's 19-year old son who agents admitted was the wrong kid, and a visa-holding Russian scientist at Harvard who forgot to declare frog embryos at the border.

But: it's all breaking through. It's getting more coverage. More people are paying attention. More elected Democrats are speaking up. More conservative pundits and legal scholars are speaking up. Even Joe Rogan thinks it's bullshit.

Now we have to keep pushing. This is much bigger than immigration or deportation policy - this is about whether we live in a free country or a police state. It's the whole ballgame.

Rarely has so much ignorance and ahistorical BS been crammed into a single tweet. I know you and @realDonaldTrump are busy surrendering to a KGB butcher, abandoning the cause of freedom, and destroying the security of America and her allies, but you would do well, @JDVance, to spend some time actually studying history. Start here with Ronald Reagan: “Perhaps you and I have lived too long with this miracle to properly be appreciative. Freedom is a fragile thing and it's never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by way of inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people.  And those in world history who have known freedom and then lost it have never known it again.”

How long until MAGA horse pasters insist we should spray gasoline on the fires instead of water, because their “resurch” proves it?

[Josh Marshall @joshtpm]

It shows great personal growth that i didn’t think Trump was capable of that he is now so at peace with being Elons new bitch.

@kaitlancollins I'm sure Charles Kushner will represent American values abroad just as well as he represented them in federal prison.

[Josh Marshall @joshtpm]

Make a note of the fact that not a single Republican Senator expressed any opposition whatsoever to Matt Gaetz becoming Attorney General.

[Josh Marshall @joshtpm]

Ben Wikler should be the next head of the DNC. That's a fighting choice. Someone who has demonstrated the kind of persistent and effective party building and infrastructure building that generates results. Dems didn't win Wisconsin this year. But it was the closest ...

Not sure why he’s telling me, but I gather from this email @realDonaldTrump has to meet with his probation officer again this week.

JD Vance is a fusion of every kid that vanished on the Wonka Factory tour.

[The Good Liars @TheGoodLiars]

JD Vance refused to answer this question at the debate but he told us Donald Trump won the 2020 election.

🚨 BREAKING -

I am objecting to the subpoena issued by Jim Jordan and the Republican-led House Judiciary Committee in its entirety. This subpoena serves no legitimate legislative purpose—making it invalid, unconstitutional, and unenforceable. It relies almost entirely on the unfounded claims of Laura Loomer, a conspiracy theorist with a documented history of lying and close ties to Donald Trump. Jordan, along with his fellow GOP committee members, would do well to heed the warnings from within their own party from Lindsey Graham and Marjorie Taylor Greene urging Republicans to stop taking orders from a known liar like Loomer.

Let me be clear: the allegations against our company are entirely false and purely politically motivated. We will not be intimidated or bullied, nor will we allow this abuse of power by the House Judiciary Committee to impact our work. Our deepest thanks go out to our staff, friends, and family for their unwavering support during this time.

I encourage everyone to read the letter our legal team sent to Jim Jordan earlier today, which addresses these issues and outlines our position. 👇
