We dove deep today into THE EPSTEIN FILES 🕵️ and the newly released emails tying Trump closer than ever to a mess that refuses to disappear.
Our YouTube playlist — “What They Don’t Want You Asking” — just got stacked with fresh breakdowns from every angle: the timing, the context, the big unanswered questions. Start with today’s clips »
Next up: the House is preparing a vote to release the files. Trump could lose as many as 50 Republicans who are more worried about angry constituents than party loyalty. MAGA loves Trump, but they also want the real story behind Epstein’s trafficking of minors to the rich and powerful.
After yesterday’s losses Republicans worry next year will be just as bad for them. If Trump thinks he could lose Congress to Democrats who threaten his power trip how far will he go? Can we put this past him?
