Originally published at: Trump’s New Sham: The House Should Vote To Force Me To Release The Epstein Files That I Won’t Release
LOL Wut? Poised to lose a House vote this week calling for the Justice Department to release its Jeffrey Epstein files, President Trump snookered a good chunk of political media by declaring in a social media post last evening that the House should vote to release the files. Knowing he’s going to lose the vote…

My assumption is that the DOJ has finished scrubbing the Epstein files of all the good stuff about Trump.

Wilkins, a country singer, has a security detail made up of elite FBI agents, MS Now first reported. These agents were previously assigned to a SWAT team in the FBI field office in Nashville, where Wilkins primarily resides.
So, if there’s a SWAT situation in the Nashville area…

A sane and normal Justice Department (I know, I know) would take Trump’s demand that the House release his Epstains as the cue to just spontaneously release those files on their own. After all, the President, who runs the Justice Department, just stated publicly that he wants the files released, right? So why make Congress go to all that trouble? Just do as told in the backhanded, “don’t blame me, I never said that” way that mob bosses and Trump (but I repeat myself) always do?

Not sure what possesses the people who get involved with Chump…some of them really seem to want to strike blows against lefties and really inflict the pain. And they get to do that, for a while. But deep down, are Bondi and Patel glad they took the jobs now?
This was great from David Kurtz:
"the demand to weaponize the Epstein case against Democrats will require a new level of Orwellian reality-denial by Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel.
(https://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/14/us/politics/trump-epstein-inquiry-democrats.html). Trump is making them reverse and contort themselves in a degrading display of cult devotion that exceeds anything we’ve seen from them up to now. At this point, the only thing more cravenly loyal they could do is to investigate and indict themselves."

Bondi: “You know when I lied to the court about having read stuff that didn’t exist? Well it exists now and I read it, swear to God, so everything’s cool, right?”

Excellent article from the NYT. The corruption of the DOJ under Trump 2.0, with receipts. This is why I subscribed for a very long time.
An archived copy of the article, but the formatting is a little messy because it comes from the magazine.

Good morning. The FBI has a thousand employees who had access to the documents last March, as they identified for redaction all of the references to the First Felon. What’s it going to take to get just one of those people to leak a clean copy?
If the FF thinks he can put a lid on this by pulling a Comey and announcing a sham investigation at the last minute, he’s a bigger fool than we thought. Desperation does not make for wise choices. There are myriad ways that details will continue to leak. It’s really an OJ moment, as the FF looks for the “real” pedos.

Perhaps overlooked because it was Time who did the interview -
Trump, 79, Bizarrely Claims He Greenlit Deadly Pager Attacks
Pager attacks that took place while he was still a candidate, folks.
“All of those attacks were done under my auspices, you know, with Israel doing the attacks—with the pagers and all that stuff,” Trump, who was a presidential candidate challenging the incumbent Joe Biden at the time, told TIME. “They let me know everything,” he added. “And sometimes I’d say no—and they’d be respectful of that.”
White House explanation makes less sense than usual.
But in a follow-up statement, White House Communications Director Steven Cheung stated that the president did indeed support the Lebanon attack. “The definition of auspices is support and approval. President Trump supported the action,” he told the Daily Beast.
No, it isn’t.
Now Yahoo news doesn’t format???
