"The woman who directly named Trump in her abuse allegation claimed that around 1983, when she was around 13 yrs old, Epstein introduced her to Trump who subsequently forced her head down to his exposed penis which she subsequently bit. In response, Trump punched her in the head and kicked her out."

Screenshot of an X post by Matt Gaetz stating that any teacher who leads an anti-ICE walkout should be instantly fired and possibly deported. Below it is a reply suggesting the same should apply to any congressman who has sex with 17-year-old girls.
This is the guy Trump first wanted for the job so he could help bury the Epstein files.

Noem's use of Coast Guard resources strains her relationship with the military branch, sources say
Some early decisions by the homeland security secretary, including to divert Coast Guard resources from a search and rescue mission to the deportation of immigrants, set the tone early.
"When Lewandowski was told Noem's personal items had been left behind, including a heated blanket, he yelled at Coast Guard staff
The pilot came out of cockpit to see what was happening & Lewandowski insisted plane return to collect Noem's items
When he refused, Lewandowski announced he was fired"

Just as ICE and CBP have no legitimate role in "election security" neither does the head of DHS. The mere existence of this press conference should be a scandal, much less this tone-deaf comment.

Not sure who needs to hear this but the voter fraud rate is a mere 0.000003%. Anyone telling you otherwise is making shit up so they can take away your right to vote.

I seem to remember the republicans pitching a fit over their government phone toll records being obtained by Jack Smith. Now, indeed, the Trump administration obtained Rep Jayapalβs unredacted Epstein Files search history without her knowledge or permission.

A reminder: The Attorney General of the United States should be the people's lawyer, not the president's personal attorney. The Department of Justice should act to protect the public, not the occupant of the Oval Office and his political allies.

wow -- Bondi throws a fit in response to Nadler's question about how many of Epstein's co-conspirators, if any, she's investigating, aggressively pointing at him and yelling. The hearing then devolves into chaos and Raskin and Bondi start yelling at each other.
