Hillary Clinton in deposition says she never met Epstein, slams Republican efforts to combat sex trafficking | CBC News Former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton repeated her denial of ever meeting the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, this time in a deposition to Congress, and questioned the House committee's co...

Hillary sat for a closed-door House deposition on Epstein and says she had no knowledge of his crimes and doesn’t recall meeting him. But she also made it clear: if Congress is serious, Trump who is all over the files should have to testify too.

She ain’t playing.

It’s going to be long day for republicans who showed up to make political hay.

Buckle up.

Thanks… not my photo, though.

Per #ABC : At least 6 FBI agents re: the 2022 search of Trump's Mar-a-Lago were fired on Wednesday, per sources familiar with the situation. The agents were fired after #KashPatel told #Reuters that phone records belonging to him and WH Chief of Staff Susie Wiles had been subpoenaed by the #FBI.

Trump didn’t give a SOTU. He committed biological warfare on America. That wasn’t oratory; that was a Category 5 verbal bowel movement broadcast live from the nation’s most secure Port-a-John—complete with orange residue, narcissistic stench and a fresh flatulent blast of MAGA-branded hypocrisy. 🔁

Justice Department says it's reviewing whether any Epstein-related records were mistakenly withheld The Justice Department says it is looking into whether it improperly withheld documents from the Jeffrey Epstein files.

DOJ “reviewing” missing Epstein files only after reporters caught them. FBI interviews vanish. Victims exposed. Power protected. This isn’t incompetence—it’s institutional rot. Sunlight wasn’t optional. It was the law. Release everything. Now. #ReleaseTheFiles #NoMoreCoverUps

I’m not sure.

"Send them back": Trump ramps up rhetoric against Omar, Tlaib The president said Reps. Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib should be sent “back from where they came" after the Democrats heckled him during his State of the Union speech.

Cuba says four killed after U.S. boat violates territorial waters U.S. officials did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

I can’t say that I blame them. This is what the U.S. gets when it blows up people in speedboats, claiming they are narco-terrorists.

Opinion | Trump’s State of the Union address was oddly cheery — and disturbingly violent Anthony L. Fisher: The president seemed like he was in a great mood as he wallowed in the horrific details of gory crimes and attacked Democrats.

No kidding, eh?!

This may be the best SOTU response in...ever? Nailing all the right points: affordability, ICE abuses, corruption, Epstein.

Not sure it matters, but Spanberger is providing Dems a good template for assailing Trump and offering alternative values and policies.

Gov. Abigail Spanberger: "The scale of the corruption is unprecedented. There's the cover up of the Epstein files, the crypto scams, cozying up to foreign princes for airplanes and billionaires for ballrooms, putting his name and face on buildings all over our nation's capital."

I think the word you’re looking for is ‘raped’, not assaulted or ‘forced into sex’. Let’s not sugarcoat it.
