The White House cover up of the Epstein Files is the most egregious, disturbing and corrupt in American history. It’s criminal.

Ian Wright is an absolute hero for saying how we all feel about this World Cup…
“I've just read that the Somalian referee has been denied entry. Every few hours it's another story, another story about fans denied, players denied, officials denied, journalists denied, now refs," Wright said.
"You know something I'm laughing but it's not funny, it's actually not funny and something has to be said.
"The expensive tickets, the most expensive tickets ever, expensive accommodation, transport through the roof. It has to be said.
"Is this how the hosts behave really for the greatest game, the greatest tournament in the world, is this how the hosts behave?
"Are we not hearing more? Are we seeing how Qatar got dragged, are we not hearing more? Is this the spirit of football, really?
"You know who I feel for? I feel for the American fans who are desperate for this, American soccer fans who are desperate for this, how embarrassed they must be. How embarrassing for them this must be.
"This is the World Cup, this is a World Cup of chaos. Whoever wins this World Cup is going to have to go through some serious chaos to get this done.
"I hope we can do it, but something has to be said now. This is the World Cup."

BREAKING: ROAST HIM! Senator Maggie Hassan torches Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent for trying to downplay our economic suffering: "When was the last time you were in a grocery store!?"
And she was just getting warmed up...
"Now Secretary Bessent, in May the President said that he does not think about Americans' financial situations. Do you think about the financial situation of the American people?" Hassan asked during a hearing.
"I do, and as the ranking member distorted my statement, as he often does. The uh— I had prefaced my statement with, we understand that these are challenging times for the American people, that we will get over this, and that at present, the average household has paid about $200 more in gasoline. We think about this every day," said Bessent, who's worth approximately $600 million.
"Well, I'm glad that you do," said the senator. "Do you think your boss should, too?"
"Uh. I— I believe his— The— The remarks were taken out of context," Bessent pathetically insisted.
They were not.
"No, look, here's what he said. He said, 'I don't think about Americans' financial situation," said Hassan. "I don't think about anybody. So I'm asking you, that's the direct quote, do you think about how the American people are paying more for gas, groceries, and utilities, since the President clearly said he didn't? And you speak with the President regularly, are you trying to tell him the truth about how much costs have increased for the American people?"
The simple fact is that Americans are struggling to get by because Trump entered office and immediately started trade wars with his harebrained tariffs and then proceeded to ignite a pointless war with Iran on behalf of Israel. Gas prices are through the roof and those costs are spreading into every sector of the economy.
All of the MAGA policies that Trump has implemented have made life tangibly worse for average Americans. Meanwhile, oligarchs like Bessent are immune to rising prices because they're so obscenely rich that nothing affects them. They're insulated from the consequences of their own disastrous ideas.
"Well, Senator, I'm going to have to disagree with you on some of that because I have— Groceries are going down," claimed Bessent. "And to be clear, since President Trump took office, food price— Food prices or as many people like to call them groceries, food at home, in the statistical data, is up 2.5%"
"When's the last time you were in a grocery store!?" shot back Hassan. "Because my husband and I were just in one and look, the average Granite Stater is paid, let me be clear, the average Granite Stater has paid $3,000 more since Donald Trump took office for basic goods and services. Meanwhile, the country lost 100,000 manufacturing jobs in 2025."
"Tha— That's— That's incorrect on groceries," stuttered a flustered Bessent.
"So do you tell the President this information or not?" asked Hassan.
"Again, Senator, except for inflation, which is, I believe, going to be a short-term blip, the economic data is very strong. The jobs data has been very strong," lied Bessent. "The manufacturing ISM has been very strong."
"No, actually, that's incorrect, so let's move on, because what's clear to me is that neither you nor the President nor this administration are willing to acknowledge how much more people are paying at the gas pump, at the grocery store, in utilities, for healthcare, for all aspects of American life, nor have you acknowledged the number of manufacturing jobs that were lost in 2025," said Hassan.
Well said!
Please ❤️ and share if you think that MAGA is a total failure!
As President, I would read 10 letters a day sent to me by ordinary Americans. At the Obama Presidential Center, we’ll have some of the letters I read — and responded to — every night. I still get emotional reading them, and it’s one of my favorite exhibits.
