Democrats say Epstein's accountant made "inconsistent" statements about Trump accuser Richard Kahn, who worked closely with Epstein for more than a decade, testified before the Oversight Committee on Wednesday.

“He initially told the committee that Epstein's estate had reached a settlement with "Jane Doe 4," who had also accused the president of abuse.

Garcia and Ro Khanna of CA said Friday that Kahn's account changed later in his deposition, and again the following day.”

It's not just oil: The Iran war is threatening to reignite food inflation — the price shock voters feel most directly — at the worst possible time for President Trump and Republicans.

Militaries are scrambling to create their own Starlink Starlink’s satellite constellation provides a reliable internet connection to almost anywhere on Earth, conferring an advantage on the modern battlefield. But it is also run by controversial billionaire Elon Musk, presenting a risk to militaries that could easily find themselves cut off. So, now countries are racing to build their own version. The Starlink network consists of almost 10,000 satellites that offer internet connections across most of the planet via small dishes on the ground. The company says it has more than 10 million paying civilian customers, but the service is also used militarily. Modern warfare is a data-intensive business, with intelligence, video feeds and drone control instructions being beamed back and forth 24 hours a day. Unlike radios, which can be easily jammed by adversaries, Starlink’s signals point straight up from ground stations to space and are relatively robust. And because receivers are cheap, they can be issued to small military units and even used on remotely operated ground and aerial drones. But in a world where global tensions are ratcheting up and states are seeking sovereignty in everything from computer chip manufacture to nuclear deterrence, relying on a foreign service like Starlink to coordinate troops is considered increasingly...

Trump always thought being president was like being king, and that he has the right to order his enemies locked up. In Trump 1.0 he felt that his attorneys let him down, and vowed to appoint more loyal and aggressive ones this time. Again he learns we have a rule of law and presidents are not kings.

How does ANYONE take him seriously?

Just like his boss, he's FAR more concerned with his media coverage than with the actual events that HE'S supposedly responsible for.

Whining about his appearance on that media is just one of several things that shows he's not up to the job.

JUDGE BOASBERG: “.. the Government has produced essentially zero evidence to suspect Chair Powell of a crime; indeed, its justifications are so thin and unsubstantiated that the Court can only conclude that they are pretextual."

This is a great read. Highly recommend his work if you’re into smart data analysis and polling

This is very good.

Also confirms the point I made earlier: No president this unpopular (by net approval, at least in the polling era) has ever started a war this substantial.

This is unfuckingbelievable. What at one point was considered an elite assignment is, of course, a fucking joke under hegseth.

I may be wrong, but warfare isn’t in the trenches hand to hand, and hasn’t been for some time. Decades?

KILMEADE: Is it true you're telling your whole cabinet to wear the same shoes, these Florsheim shoes?

TRUMP: When they tell me they have a problem, I say, 'let me get you a pair of shoes.' It seems to work out well. Now they look all spiffy & nice. I never liked cabinet members walking in sneakers.

Hilarious, since this fraud could not litigate her way out of a paper bag. The judge is not to blame.
