The Pedo-Protector Prez ordered a brand new distraction & the Dept. of War (actually the Dept. of Defense: a mini-distraction within a distraction, no extra charge!) is delivering by expanding our ongoing unlawful policy of randomly bombing the tiny boats of fishermen with no due process whatsoever.

In normal times, it would be a major scandal for the President to direct his AG to criminally investigate his political opponents to deflect from his own involvement in a major scandal — and for the AG to immediately announce she is doing it. The Epstein scandal and cover up just got even bigger.

Odd that the DoJ is opening an investigation into the Epstein files since they said in July that there was no client list and nothing to release.

A border patrol questions an elderly man with a cane in a parking lot before taking him.

Border Patrol has been targeting the elderly heavily. Today in Santa Ana, that’s almost all they took, including this man and his cane.

‘Death remains my intimate shadow partner. It has been with me since birth, always hovering close by. I understand one day we will finally waltz together into the ether. I hope when that time comes, I die with the satisfaction of a life well-lived, unapologetic, joyful, & full of love.’

Trump, 79, Admits He Has ‘No Idea’ Why He Needed an MRI The president told reporters he had no idea what his doctors analyzed, but that the results were amazing.

President Donald Trump appeared to have little to no understanding of why he underwent an MRI scan during his medical checkup last month, telling reporters aboard Air Force One that he had “no idea” what they analyzed.

Trump claims his MRI was part of checkup: ‘The doctor said it was the best result’ Trump claims his MRI was part of checkup: ‘The doctor said it was the best result’

Trump claims his MRI was part of checkup: ‘The doctor said it was the best result’

so trump just out there getting standard MRI scans as a standard part of the standard multiple annual check ups a president gets in the first ten months

More Military personnel are calling legal military non-profit agencies seeking advice for orders they received.
The DOJ has issues a order that all orders are legal & the personnel are immune from prosecution. Right there is the red flag, the prosecution immunity.

Bondi responds to Trump social post by saying she’s assigned a prosecutor to go after Clinton.

Pam Bondi on Feb. 21: Epstein client list is “sitting on my desk right now.”
Bondi’s DOJ on July 7: There’s no client list. As for other Epstein files, “no further disclosure would be appropriate.”
Trump on Nov. 14: Investigate Bill Clinton over Epstein.
Bondi, also Nov. 14: Coming right up, boss!

In the case of trans people, I think most of this Administration would be plenty happy if they drove us to suicide or to voluntarily detransition. They're lazy, they're focused on optics and le epic owns, and even where they are marshalling state capacity (ICE, et al) they're at a breaking point.

“I Lost Everything”: Venezuelans Were Rounded Up in a Dramatic Midnight Raid but Never Charged With a Crime Authorities said Tren de Aragua “terrorists” had taken over the building.

"300 agents stormed the building, rappelled from a helicopter, knocked down doors and hurled flash-bang grenades. Agents ziptied and detained many US citizens for hours..."

Prosecutors have not filed a *single* criminal charge against anyone arrested that night:

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

The 2nd time around it’s said that the fbi has control over boxes and boxes of evidence. Surveillance, digital, paper evidence from all the remaining estates. All under the control of Patel, bondi. Prior Wray kept it under wraps with a judges order .

Trump just said he'll be ordering an investigation into Jeffrey Epstein's involvement with Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, Reid Hoffman, J.P. Morgan, Chase and other people and institutions.

Not on that list: Donald Trump. Steve Bannon.

Pam Bondi has now assigned a prosecutor to look into Epstein's ties to Democrats.

If this investigation was legitimate, why wasn't this investigation opened months ago?

If this investigation was legitimate, why isn't everyone mentioned in Epstein's emails being investigated?

The Epstein Scandal Is Now a Chronic Disease of the Trump Presidency Read the e-mails—this isn’t going away anytime soon.

Leavitt, this week: "President Trump kicked him out because Jeffrey Epstein was a pedophile and he was a creep."

Trump, asked in 2019 if he had “any suspicions” that Epstein was molesting underage women: "No, I had no idea. I had no idea."

Can confirm. I am okay and more motivated than ever to speak up.

Nothing scares this administration more. Their power lies in our silence.

When historians look back at this era, they will read things like this and wonder how it all happened. A legal opinion comparing extrajudicial killings to police exceeding speed limits. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/13/u...

I think Democrats should talk more about Trump trying to block the "Epstein videos" the "Epstein photos" because I really don't think he's that worried about his name showing up on yet another list, that he can spin. Also, "files" sounds so clerical.

“editors” also seems to suggest the issue was discovered and handled within the newsroom, not by some unethical suit whose job might understandably be to contain rather than audit his files. if that’s true, the question has to be why would newsroom leaders decide not to proactively investigate?

turns out the emails we should have been reading in 2016 were from the NYT

Oh, the discussion continued in the next set of emails I opened and they did find a time to meet up.

Ken Starr and Jeffrey Epstein at least planned to get together the day before Thanksgiving in 2016.

On the flight home(?), he reaches out to several people, including Ken Starr.

A little more than a week later, once they realized they wouldn't be meeting up, Epstein tells Starr, "miss talking to you."
