Huge victory for Zohran Mamdani in the Oval Office. He stuck to his guns, spoke about affordability, proudly declared himself a Democratic Socialist, condemned genocide in Gaza, did not back down from calling Trump a β€œfascist,” and still got Trump to praise him, undermining months of GOP attacks.

After months of fighting the release of the Epstein Files, Trump now realizes he’s going to lose the vote in the House so he tries to pretend he wants the House to vote to release it.

If Trump wanted the files released, he could RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES TODAY. He doesn’t have to wait on Congress.

Trump re-pardons a Jan. 6 defendant to erase unrelated gun conviction The new pardon ends a legal clash over the limits of Trump’s sweeping Day One clemency for those who stormed the Capitol.

Trump has re-pardoned January 6 insurrectionist Dan Wilson, who was pardoned in January for his role in the attempted government takeover. Now he’s been pardoned again for an unrelated gun conviction in Kentucky.

Don’t ever tell me Trump cares about law and order. He cares about loyalty to Trump.

In Matt Gaetz Scandal, Circumstances Left Teen Vulnerable to Exploitation

A 35-year-old Republican congressman high on cocaine paid a homeless 17-year-old girl $400 to have sex with him while she was under the influence of drugs and alcohol. That’s statutory rape.

But Trump nominated the congressman, Matt Gaetz, to be Attorney General of the United States.
