More accurately, Netanyahu convinced Trump he wanted war. If Trump had better negotiated this deal, he would actually have one thing to be proud of. But instead we have Operation Epic Fury, forever known as Operation Epic Failure. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m... #STOPTHEWARINIRAN #PINKS

How New Mexico's entire law enforcement hierarchy — from the governor to the sheriff — was compromised, conflicted, or bought off before a single investigation into Jeffrey Epstein ever opened.

A free press can’t exist in a surveillance state. Geofence warrants allow the government to collect location data on everyone, including journalists and whistleblowers. A Supreme Court case could make it worse. Here’s how.

Here’s a thought for James Comer. There IS a First Lady who has had a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. And it’s not Hillary Clinton. It might be worthwhile for Comer to subpoena the First Lady who actually knows Epstein. You know, just to see what she knows.
