Congressmen Ted W. Lieu and Dan Goldman have urged Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche to appoint a special counsel to investigate Attorney General Pam Bondi. This call follows Bondi’s February 11, 2026, testimony before the House Committee on the Judiciary, where she stated there was no evidence Donald Trump committed a crime. The Congressmen contend that recently released Justice Department documents from the Epstein files directly contradict this assertion, presenting evidence that suggests otherwise. They argue Bondi’s statement constitutes perjury, a crime under federal law, and emphasize the necessity of a special counsel due to the inherent conflict of interest.

The Epstein files, a treasure trove of information regarding a notorious sex trafficker and his associates, are currently at the center of a developing controversy, particularly concerning a particular set of records. These records pertain to an individual who made serious allegations of sexual abuse against Donald Trump when she was a minor, and a significant portion of the relevant FBI interviews appears to be missing. This isn’t just a minor oversight; the New York Times has confirmed that the Department of Justice is withholding these crucial FBI interviews from a survivor who alleges Trump sexually abused her at the tender age of 13.… Continue reading
A recent CNN snap poll indicates President Trump’s latest State of the Union address garnered the weakest positive reaction of any modern address, even among viewers who typically support the president. While a majority of speech-watchers offered at least a somewhat positive view, enthusiasm was notably thin, with a significant percentage rating the speech negatively, an unusually narrow gap for such an event. This trend of declining “very positive” scores from previous addresses suggests a struggle to energize his base, which could impact upcoming elections. However, the White House maintains that the President is delivering on a popular agenda, citing an overwhelming election mandate and historic progress.

President Donald Trump’s record-breaking State of the Union address elicited sharply divided reactions from lawmakers and the public. Democrats protested and accused the president of falsehoods, while Republicans cheered his accomplishments. The nearly two-hour speech saw factual inaccuracies and notable disruptions, with many Democrats wearing protest pins and some shouting at the president, while Republicans repeatedly applauded. Online reactions mirrored this division, with Democrats highlighting unaddressed issues like the Epstein files and perceived inaccuracies, while Republicans praised the president’s agenda and achievements.

The recent State of the Union address saw a notable absence from a significant portion of the Supreme Court, with the majority of justices choosing not to attend President Trump’s speech. This decision comes on the heels of a particularly pointed public criticism from the President himself, who had days earlier branded the justices who ruled against his tariff plan as a “disgrace to our nation.” The timing of their collective no-show, or at least a reduced attendance, inevitably sparks conversation about the dynamics between the executive and judicial branches, especially when personal animosity seems to be a factor.
It’s worth noting that the attendance of Supreme Court justices at the State of the Union isn’t always a full house, and historical records show that four justices have been absent in previous years, including 2020 and 2019.… Continue reading
The Justice Department has omitted FBI interview notes and memos from its public release of Jeffrey Epstein files, including those pertaining to a woman who accused President Donald Trump of sexual abuse when she was a minor. These withheld documents represent over 50 pages of FBI interviews with this accuser, and also include materials related to another woman, known as “Jane,” who testified about being introduced to Trump by Epstein. Democrats have criticized this selective release as a potential cover-up and a violation of the Epstein Files Transparency Act, while the Justice Department asserts that all responsive documents have been produced, with any temporary removals due to necessary redactions.

In an address marking the fourth year of Russia’s full-scale invasion, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized the critical need for the US president to visit Ukraine. Such a visit, he stated, is essential for understanding the reality of the war and recognizing the necessity of applying pressure on Russia. Zelenskyy asserted that Ukraine is defending life against an attack by a “sick state” and identified Putin as the sole cause of the war, advocating for Russia to be “put in its place” for genuine peace.

Ranking Member Robert Garcia of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform has revealed that the Department of Justice (DOJ) appears to have illegally withheld FBI interview records pertaining to allegations of sexual assault made against President Donald Trump by a survivor. This alleged withholding is a violation of both the Committee’s subpoena and the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which mandates the immediate release of such records to Congress and the public. Oversight Democrats are launching a parallel investigation into this matter, deeming the obstruction of evidence concerning a potential presidential assault as a grave offense.
