Reeling from the news that dear friends @ftounifatima and @cheib1970 have been killed in an I$raeli strike in the south of Lebanon.
Heartbroken beyond words. And make no mistake that this was a deliberate, targeted assassination of journalists. A war crime.
We owe them a debt that can never be repaid. Words are not enough right now
Rest in power. We will continue our work in your honour.

The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Trump is in the "Epstein files," but we're unsure of the exact context. And now we're seeing Democrats lacerate Trump on social media. As I've said before, I'm not a Republican and I'm not a Democrat. The objective of Epstein Justice is to create an independent Congressional Commission to investigate why the government is covering up child trafficking and to prosecute the perpetrators. I should add that the Democrats covered up the Epstein trafficking network under the Obama and Biden administrations. I believe both political parties have blood on their hands when it comes to Epstein and his band of perps. https://t.co/denFXOPmeM

Breaking News: Speaker Mike Johnson said he would shut down the House until September to block a vote on calling for the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files. https://t.co/UO2Zcud306
Members of the Trump administration have blamed the "Radical Left Democrats" for the "Epstein hoax.” President Donald Trump said of "Radical Left Democrats": "Their new SCAM is what we will forever call the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax." In actuality, the Epstein coverup began in earnest under the George W. Bush administration. At the time, in 2007, the US attorney for the Southern District of Florida, Alexander Acosta, gave Jeffrey Epstein his “sweetheart deal." The Justice Department had a list of at least 34 Epstein victims, but it nonetheless gave blanket immunity to all of Epstein’s co-conspirators: “… the United States also agrees that it will not institute any criminal charges against any potential co-conspirators of Epstein, including but not limited to Sarah Kellen, Adriana Ross, Lesley Groff, or Nadia Marcinkova.” So, it was a Republican administration that gave Epstein his sweetheart deal and blanket immunity to all of his co-conspirators, naming four of his pimps. Two Democratic administrations, Obama and Biden, covered up Epstein and his band of abusers, so I definitely wouldn’t say they were the prime movers in perpetrating a “SCAM.”
That extremely strange document released by the DOJ and FBI two weeks ago, that no one signed, stated that Epstein had over a “thousand” victims, but, unlike the sweetheart deal, it named no co-conspirators. In fact, it came to the ludicrous conclusion that Epstein acted alone. Either a person has a serious case of denial and/or they’re seriously cognitively impaired to think that Epstein acted alone. (Perhaps he just went to his island by himself to occasionally drink a few cocktails over the weekend?) The vast majority of people, myself included, have concluded that Epstein trafficked little girls to his powerful and affluent cronies. I’ll even go on record by stating absolutely that Epstein was a pedophilic pimp.
The Trump administration has again maliciously maligned the Epstein victims. The aforementioned strange document released by the DOJ and FBI essentially said that any Epstein victims who named anyone other then Epstein as a perpetrator were lying. So for anyone in the Trump administration or in the media to call Jeffrey Epstein’s child trafficking a “Hoax” is calling the Epstein victims who were pimped out to be liars. The Epstein child trafficking network is very similar to a child trafficking network I wrote a book about: The Franklin Scandal: A Story of Powerbrokers, Child Abuse, and Betrayal. Although that network destroyed untold children, authorities declared that is was also a “hoax.” If anyone uses the term “hoax” with regard to an actual child trafficking network, they are committing a most abominable act.
The Trump administration is now lobbying to unseal Epstein's grand jury documentation, but it won’t tell us anything new. That grand jury indicted Epstein on only one count of child trafficking and it indicted none of his co-conspirators. The release of the grand jury transcripts will be like the AG Pam Bondi’s release of the "Epstein files"—much ado about nothing.
I should mention that I’m not a Republican or a Democrat. Moreover, both parties are equally culpable in covering up the Epstein child sex trafficking network.

This cool new book of writings by the radical IWW hobo T-Bone Slim just came out: https://t.co/MSCOOqecI0
Slim died in 1942 but his writing is still relevant. He once wrote, 'If you deport anything let it be injustice'. Check it out!
‘Forgive me, mother. This is the path I chose—to help people.’
These were the last words of Rifaat Radwan, who filmed his own murder in Rafah. He was part of a Red Crescent convoy aiding wounded civilians. The convoy—clearly marked, unarmed, with flashing lights—was attacked on March 23, 2025.
For five days, the UN and Red Crescent were denied access to search for the missing rescue workers. When granted entry, they found 15 rescuers buried in a mass grave. The UN and Red Cross have called it the deadliest assault on their workers since 2017.
On April 2, the IDF stated that on March 23, ‘several vehicles were identified advancing suspiciously toward IDF troops without headlights or emergency signals,’ and their movement wasn’t coordinated in advance, prompting troops to open fire on these ‘suspected vehicles.’
However, the paramedic’s video, recovered from his body and verified by The New York Times, shows the convoy’s emergency lights were on, contradicting the IDF’s claim and proving their account of the attack was a lie.
Joe Biden pardoned his whole family, Liz Cheney and Anthony Fauci, but he did not pardon Julian Assange.
Will President Trump right this wrong? #PardonAssange
NEW: We reconstructed @samhusseini's viral confrontation with Antony Blinken by combining footage from multiple sources, including @amrhsayed & @ryangrim. A must-see.
This was the culmination of months of State Dept stonewalling.

Young victim of Israel’s pager attack tells Iraqi TV “I was playing on my phone at home. I heard the pager ring, I didn't know that sound. I grabbed it, and I barely had time to press OK before it exploded”
When Biden officials make pager jokes, this is what they’re laughing at:
I was lucky enough to take "Intro to American Studies" with Professor Andrew Ross my very first semester of undergrad. That class altered my perspective: he is a fantastic professor.
@nyuniversity, you are attacking the best of your faculty
"You said that Isreal is at war with hamas.. let me ask you a simple question. If you're at war with hamas, why are you shooting children in the skull & in the chest?why are you killing journalists? Why are you killing medics? Why are you killing UN workers?"-Norman Finkelstein
BREAKING: In a bipartisan letter urging President Biden to pardon Assange, @RepThomasMassie and @RepMcGovern write
“Put simply, there is a long-standing and well-grounded concern that section 793 [of the Espionage Act], which criminalizes the obtaining, retaining, or disclosing of sensitive information, could be used against journalists and news organizations engaged in their normal activities, particularly those who cover national security topics.”
@SenTedCruz No you’re just bought off by AIPAC. Maybe you should start representing the American people instead of the interests of a foreign power.

@ZelenskyyUa Maybe time to negotiate? I don’t think enticing Putin to send more ICBM’s is a winning strategy it only jeopardizes Ukrainian lives further as well as all people and future generations of humanity with the growing prospect of nuclear annihilation
@SenFettermanPA Fuck you you cheerleader for the genocide of children #ceasefire#genocide
No standing? Have you seen any of the myriad videos of dismembered children and infants, or the western doctors who have been there and testified that children are being shot in the head deliberately.
