BREAKING: FBI records confirm that a Butler County Sheriff’s deputy exchanged two emails with Thomas Matthew Crooks prior to the July 13, 2024, assassination attempt on Donald Trump in Butler, PA, per FOIA request.
This is a devastating interview.
Scott Pelley tells the NYT that Bari Weiss directly put a “thumb on the scale” for Trump over the killing of Renee Good.
Here’s his explanation of exactly what happened.

Leon Black paid Jeffrey Epstein $158 million.
Now Leon Black’s son oversees a federal investment agency controlling more than $200 billion.
Epstein may be gone but the network he was embedded within is rapidly concentrating power. 🧵
This is so insanely corrupt, I can’t even believe it.
More than half the donors to Trump’s $400 million White House ballroom just won over $50 billion in new federal contracts in six months.
And here’s the part that should make your blood boil.
Sixteen of these 27 donors were facing federal enforcement actions, antitrust reviews, labor cases, securities charges. Many of those cases have been quietly dropped or scaled back since Trump took office. You write a check, your legal problems disappear. That’s not a coincidence.
The White House won’t even release the full donor list. They’re hiding it on purpose, because daylight is the one thing pay-to-play can’t survive. A federal judge already ruled ballroom construction has to stop until Congress authorizes it.
Government is supposed to serve the people, not auction itself off to the highest bidder. When access goes to whoever pays the most, working families always end up paying the price.
We either end the corruption, or the corruption will end us.

According to Andrew Weissmann, Blanche using sleight of hand; they’re not killing the deal. Trump still gets $1.776 billion. He still gets a sweeping civil liability shield. They only removed the J6 slush fund piece. Same jackpot. Less scrutiny. Worse than before.
Now we know: Today is the day the SCOTUS took the remaining life out of the VRA. Despite the clearest evidence of intentional race discrimination by AL — that two conservative justices credited, the Court now rewards a state that openly defied a court order. Cold work.
The heart of our constitutional crisis in one exchange between me and Sec. Mullin. When asked a simple question - if he will obey court orders - he says he will not because some court orders are "politicized".
That's not how democracy works. And that's why we are in a crisis.
Recent retiree Greg Bovino traveled to Portugal to attend a Nazi conference, gave an interview citing Nazi general Erwin Rommel as an inspirational figure, and wore his regulation SS haircut.
When is it ok to start calling them Nazis? Or is that still too polarizing?
There it is.
The Florida House Speaker traded a gerrymandered congressional map in the middle of the decade for an Ambassadorship.
The culture of corruption is happening in plain sight.
Remember in November.
🚨BREAKING: Right-wing streamer Cam Higby was caught on video walking up to a group of protesters and pepper spraying multiple people, outside the Newark ICE Facility.
Then, as people reacted to being sprayed, an armed man pulled him away, telling him, “It’s not worth it… it’s time to go.”
Last time I checked… walking up to a group of people and spraying them with a chemical irritant is commonly charged as assault or battery.
And then, after spraying the crowd, the video show Higby, and the armed man, running into the ICE facility while agents allowed them inside.
Imagine the outrage if a left-wing activist walked up to a group of conservatives, pepper sprayed them, and then disappeared behind federal gates.
The headlines would never stop.
The law is supposed to apply equally to everyone.
Vance Boelter, the man who MURDERED Melissa Hortman, just confessed it all.
Talking to a right wing publication, he explained that he shot Melissa and other Democrats that night because of their support of mRNA vaccines.
Right wing misinformation is killing people.
When a President’s physicians start citing “AI cardiac age” metrics and explaining bilateral bruising from “frequent handshaking,” the line between medical documentation and political messaging disappears.
Rep. Stansbury: "The [DOJ] is intervening on behalf of Pam Bondi to stop her from answering questions about what happened…and her conversations with Donald Trump…This is a cover-up. This will be remembered as the largest cover-up likely in American history."
