The whole situation surrounding this FBI agent, relieved of duty for refusing to stage a “perp walk” of James Comey, is, to put it mildly, troubling. We’re talking about an individual, someone sworn to uphold the law and presumably dedicated to the principles of justice, who essentially lost their job for showing a backbone. It’s a clear signal that something is deeply wrong when an agent is penalized for, in essence, upholding what’s right.
The crux of the matter, according to reports, is this refusal to orchestrate a public display of Comey’s arrest. A “perp walk,” for those unfamiliar, is the practice of parading a suspect in front of cameras, often with the intention of creating a spectacle and generating negative publicity.… Continue reading

‘We can’t delay any longer’: Trump urges Bondi to prosecute his rivals – the essence of the situation is laid bare in these words. It’s a stark statement, a direct order, and the implications are chilling. It reveals a mindset that prioritizes political retribution over the principles of justice. The demand itself, the urgency, suggests a panic, a fear that time is running out. And the targets? His rivals. The very people who stand in the way of his vision, or perhaps, his freedom.
This call for action, as it appears, is a clear signal of an attempt to weaponize the justice system.… Continue reading
Despite attempts to dismiss the Epstein files, the pursuit of justice for survivors remains paramount, uniting individuals across the political spectrum. The goal is to release the full files to reveal who was involved and who has been shielded from accountability. A bipartisan discharge petition, led by the author and Representative Thomas Massie, is nearing the required signatures to force a vote on the bill to release the files. This effort is vital because the information released by the Justice Department so far is insufficient and fails to provide the transparency needed to address the widespread abuse and restore public trust.

Massie on Epstein files: ‘We can’t avoid justice to avoid embarrassment for some very powerful men’ – That statement, plain and simple, really cuts to the heart of the matter. It speaks volumes about the rot that can infect a system when the powerful are allowed to operate above the law. The idea that the release of the Epstein files, which likely contain evidence of heinous crimes, could be delayed or obfuscated simply to spare some people embarrassment is frankly infuriating. Justice isn’t meant to be a selective process. It’s not about protecting the elite; it’s about ensuring accountability for everyone, regardless of their status or connections.… Continue reading
Following the August recess, the Epstein case has once again come under scrutiny with the House Oversight Committee scheduled to meet with accusers and potentially depose Maxwell. Furthermore, a bipartisan group of lawmakers plans to hold a press conference advocating for the release of Justice Department files related to Epstein, a move that could conflict with the Trump administration’s reluctance to disclose all documents. Accusers like Avis and Phillips are calling for continued investigation, and if not, they and others will release their own lists. Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for her role in the sex trafficking, recently had transcripts of an interview released, while some accusers criticize the administration’s focus on the criminals rather than the victims.

Judge rules Alina Habba unlawfully serving as US attorney for New Jersey, and that’s the headline. It seems like a pretty significant development, doesn’t it? But the most crucial detail to understand is that the order has been stayed pending appeal. This single phrase unlocks a whole realm of potential outcomes and ramifications. This is a pattern we’ve seen before, where actions are deemed unlawful, but the wheels of justice grind slowly, offering ample opportunity to mitigate consequences or simply run out the clock.
If we unpack this scenario, a key question arises: if her appointment was indeed illegal, does that mean all the decisions she made during her tenure are now up for grabs?… Continue reading
The public’s deep distrust in governmental institutions necessitates transparency and accountability, with the release of the Epstein files being a critical first step. Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s trafficking and abuse of young women and children, spanning decades, warrants the exposure of all involved individuals, protecting the victims in the process. The Epstein Files Transparency Act aims to compel the Attorney General to release these files promptly, allowing for the identification and holding accountable of anyone connected to these crimes. This action aligns with the public’s overwhelming desire for transparency, ultimately fostering trust in government and ensuring justice for the victims.

The Trump administration is facing scrutiny over its handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case, with reports of meetings involving Vice President JD Vance and top Justice Department officials to strategize a unified response.

Meanwhile, the family of Epstein survivor Virginia Giuffre has spoken out against a potential pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell and expressed concern over Trump’s comments. A survivor of Epstein’s abuse, Jess Michaels, further highlighted the lack of justice for survivors and the physical and emotional toll the situation is taking.
