@Timodc @krystalball Meanwhile in Ohio… a close 2nd on racist campaigns.

[Tim Miller @Timodc]

Mike Rogers is running the most racist campaign in the country and will be a vote to fund Trump’s internment camps.

Supporting him in the name of concerns about bigotry is ludicrous.

😂🔥 Obama destroys Trump’s Cheesecake Factory tantrum: “He wasn’t even mad about the Saddam Hussein comparison… they mobilized a whole government response to that joke, not inflation… the Secretary of treasury held a presser outside Cheesecake Factory. This really happened.”

Dan Sullivan maintained a long-standing political alliance with an alleged pedophile, even when the charges became public.

Sullivan also blocked the release of the Epstein files and took money from Epstein associates.

I’m going to suspend my low expectations and express hope that every traditional opponent of bigotry in America, including the @ADL, will unite to condemn this crude, explicit & out of control anti-Muslim rhetoric from senior GOP leaders, which threatens every minority faith.

Dear Director Patel @FBIDirectorKash,

In 2024 I sat in Alon Alexander’s mansion in Miami Beach with the brothers, their father, the rest of the family, and a disbarred attorney who went to federal prison for helping drug traffickers obstruct justice, and I was told it was gang initiation time.

My target was Evan Torgan, the attorney representing the women who had come forward against Oren, Tal, and Alon Alexander. The family believed Torgan was being paid to orchestrate the women and extort them. I was asked what my connections were to the FBI and the Department of Justice. Oren told me they had already hired another private intelligence operative to gather information on the women. They could see an indictment coming.

The disbarred attorney was Samuel Burstyn. He served 42 months for conspiracy to obstruct justice on behalf of a drug trafficking organization. That is when I stopped thinking of it as an intelligence job and started thinking about what could physically happen to Evan Torgan.

I said no. I called Evan Torgan and warned him. Then I contacted the FBI, told your agents what I had seen, and handed over every electronic communication between me, the brothers, and the family. That is part of what I heard in that house. I am leaving out the rest on purpose, because I will not put anything in public that could hurt an investigation.

Yesterday the brothers were sentenced to 30 years each. Judge Caproni called what they did monstrous. She was right. But that sentence closes only half of this case.

The other half is in the Peacock documentary The Wolves of Real Estate: The Alexander Brothers, and I did not understand its full extent until I watched it. The film reports that a victim was told by an investigator that her children had been mentioned. Victim 4 dropped out.

Director Patel, that is not crisis PR. That is not intelligence gathering. That is a woman who reported a rape being told that someone knows where her children are. I believe it was witness intimidation, and I believe it was criminal.

I am asking you to open an investigation into the PR firms, the investigation agencies, and the individual investigators who were paid to target, discredit, and intimidate these women and their lawyer, and where the evidence supports it, to charge them.

I am also asking you to widen the case. Oren told me about other billionaires. He told me about a victim being held in a dungeon in a billionaire’s house in the Hamptons. I cannot prove what he said. You can. The brothers did not operate alone, and I believe there are more victims who were silenced by exactly this machinery. The people who helped this family, protected it, and hunted its accusers should not get to watch the sentencing on the news and go back to work.

These women did their part. They spoke, and they were hunted for it. The brothers who raped them got 30 years. The people who hunted them got paid.

Fix that.

Respectfully,

Listen to the clip. He strongly suggests people who do not believe "Jesus came here for our salvation" should not be in elected federal office.

In new court filing, Justice Department argues that there's "nothing improper" about White House staff assisting with Trump's "advertisements"

Plaintiffs suing to halt those ads argue that the use of government staff constitutes the use of taxpayer money for "propaganda"
