A confidential source alleged to the FBI that Donald Trump visited Jeffrey Epstein shortly before announcing his presidential candidacy in 2015 and remained “very close” with the convicted sex offender after his election. The source claimed Trump visited Epstein’s property for lunch in the spring of 2015, contradicting Trump’s later statements about a significant falling out with Epstein. These allegations, part of a recent Justice Department release of Epstein files, emerged despite the White House labeling them as false and baseless. Epstein himself had reportedly described Trump as a long-time confidant in recorded conversations.
President Donald Trump has advocated for the “nationalization of voting,” proposing that the Republican Party should assume control over election administration from individual states. This suggestion stems from Trump’s continued promotion of unsubstantiated claims regarding widespread voter fraud, particularly alleging that undocumented immigrants are brought into the country to cast illegal votes. He asserted that states he believes he won were falsely reported as losses and pointed to ongoing investigations in Georgia as potential evidence, despite losing the 2020 election in both national and state results. Critics highlight that Trump lacks the constitutional authority to federalize elections, viewing his remarks as desperate attempts to incite fear and a direct threat to democratic processes, especially as some Republicans in Congress are pursuing legislation with significant voting restrictions.
A whistleblower’s complaint against Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard remains highly classified, preventing Congress from reviewing it despite ongoing behind-the-scenes wrangling and accusations of illegal delays by Gabbard herself. While an Intelligence Community Inspector General found the allegations not credible, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence denies wrongdoing and suggests the complaint is politically motivated. The situation has raised concerns about transparency and the potential for executive privilege to withhold information from legislative oversight.
Former prime ministers Stephen Harper and Jean Chrétien urged Canadians to unite and reduce their reliance on the United States in response to economic and sovereignty challenges posed by U.S. President Donald Trump. Speaking at an event where Harper received a gold medal, the two leaders emphasized the need for Canada to diversify its trade and bolster its national pride. They highlighted the importance of focusing on the High Arctic due to increasing international interest, asserting Canada’s capability to defend its northern territories independently. The discussion also touched upon national unity amidst provincial separatist movements and the country’s attractiveness to immigrants, with both former prime ministers expressing optimism for Canada’s future.
As Democratic leaders began to coalesce behind reforms for the Department of Homeland Security without demanding funding cuts, Senator Bernie Sanders introduced legislation to slash the entirety of the GOP’s massive ICE budget increase. This measure, which would have reallocated $75 billion from ICE to Medicaid, aimed to prevent 700,000 people from losing health care. The amendment ultimately failed, though it garnered support from the entire Democratic caucus and two Republicans, signaling a growing opposition to the administration’s immigration policies even within the GOP. This vote highlighted a divergence between Democratic leaders’ negotiation strategies and the broader desires of their caucus.
Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have agreed to testify in a House investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, following an agreement to suspend contempt resolutions against them. This development comes after communications between the Clintons’ representatives and House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer, who stated that terms for their testimony still require clarity and definitive dates. The subpoenas, issued in August, sought testimony related to Epstein’s crimes from a range of high-profile former Justice Department and FBI officials, including the Clintons. The Justice Department recently released over 3.5 million pages of Epstein-related files, some of which contained images of Bill Clinton, whose spokesperson confirmed he flew on Epstein’s plane for unrelated Clinton Foundation trips prior to Epstein’s indictment.
Congresswoman Yassamin Ansari has called for the impeachment of US Attorney General Pam Bondi following the Department of Justice’s release of unredacted nude photos of young women and teenagers among files related to Jeffrey Epstein. Journalists discovered dozens of these images, prompting the DOJ to state they were working to address victim concerns and make further redactions. Survivors of Epstein’s abuse have also condemned the release, arguing it exposes them while perpetrators remain protected. Lawyers are seeking judicial intervention due to alleged widespread redaction failures impacting numerous survivors.
Donald Trump has threatened to sue Grammy’s host Trevor Noah for allegedly making “false and defamatory” comments regarding his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Trump denies ever visiting “Epstein Island” and states that he has never been accused of doing so until Noah’s remarks. This legal threat arises amidst the ongoing release of previously sealed documents linked to Epstein, which reference Trump hundreds of times.

Greene Admits MAGA Was A Lie, Torches Trump
In a recent interview, former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene expressed that the “Make America Great Again” movement has become a “big lie” for the people, serving primarily “big, big donors” including foreign countries and large corporations. She argued that the Trump administration prioritizes those who funnel cash to his PACs and pet projects, leading to special favors and government contracts. Greene also criticized the focus on foreign interventions over domestic issues such as affordability for younger generations, and suggested that Baby Boomers are heavily “brainwashed” by media like Fox News. She attributed the shift away from “America first” to Donald Trump himself, rather than his advisors.
