Donald Trump has never been particularly critical of the Saudis, and he has always been very clear about the reasons why. “They buy apartments from me. They spend $40 million, $50 million. Am I supposed to dislike them? I like them very much.”

Btw as with his not releasing his taxes, it is a way of not releasing the Epstein files since it is “under investigation.” He looks guiltier than ever.

Months ago, the DOJ said there was no further need for investigations in the Epstein case. Then Trump made a ridiculous new demand — and Bondi did what she was told to do. The debate over whether the AG is actually calling the shots at Main Justice is over. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

If Trump has nothing to hide, he'd tell Pam Bondi to release the Epstein Files like they all promised. Mike Johnson would have sworn in Adelita Grijalva yesterday. Ghislaine Maxwell would be sent back to Florida prison instead of being pampered in Club Fed in Texas. And... He's guilty as hell.

Private planes make up nearly 12% of all flights. And yet even with major air traffic control safety concerns, the DOT is planning to exclude them from its plan to order 10% cut in flights at 40 major U.S. airports. People who can afford to charter flights will be fine. Everyone else is screwed.
