I called out Flock a year ago. BUT, it is grassroots organizing that made it a national movement against mass surveillance.

Epstein made millions in direct payments to women and young girls out of just one JPMorgan account. Many of these payments were to women in high-risk countries like Belarus, Lithuania, and Russia.

Emails between top executives at JPMorgan Chase show they had concerns about Epstein’s transactions dating all the way back to 2012, but still chose to look the other way.

Top JPMorgan Chase executives had knowledge of the pervasive presence of young women or underage girls at Epstein’s homes.

Top bank execs also knowingly withheld information from federal law enforcement about Epstein’s financial transactions until after his arrest. See here the Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) filed by JPMC before and after Epstein’s arrest in 2019.

I sent a classified letter to House and Senate colleagues about a secret interpretation of surveillance law that every American should be concerned about. Representative Massie is right. The Constitution requires EVERY member to vote against a clean reauthorization.
A tweet from Representative Thomas Massie that reads:

I just viewed 2 Top Secret FISA docs.
1) FISA Court opinion that raises serious concerns about FBI implementation of FISA 702.
2) letter by Senator Wyden describing a secret government interpretation of FISA law.
The Constitution requires I vote No on FISA 702 reauthorization.

Epstein met with Russian government officials and Russian state-owned entities more than a dozen times between 2015 and 2017. Many of those meetings took place within hours of separate meetings between Epstein and Black.

Senator Ron Wyden @wyden.senate.gov · 23/03/2026
Documents also show Epstein was in contact with a prominent Russian government official and provided the location of a woman who was on Black’s payroll. Epstein asked for “suggestions” on how to deal with her.

Black was paying Epstein like he was the CEO of a major Fortune 500 company. Why? Black was also paying millions of dollars to women -- including some connected to Epstein. It looks like hush money. Emails indicate Black paid millions of dollars to women using Epstein as a middleman.

Also worth noting that the document detailed here came from a highly specialized DEA unit called the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces. The Trump administration defunded and shut it down in 2025.

These transactions had some of the key hallmarks of money laundering, including a series of 20 transactions spread over 9 months in which Epstein moved exactly $1 million out of BNY into his accounts at another bank, JPMorgan.
A graphic showing a series of transactions from Epstein’s BNY accounts to his account at JP Morgan Chase throughout 2007. Each transaction shows an amount of $1 million.

The DOJ identified at least 10 co-conspirators who worked with Epstein and Maxwell. It’s obvious to anyone with two eyes that Epstein and Maxwell were engaged in organized crime, yet NO ONE ELSE involved in Epstein’s sex trafficking ring has faced criminal charges. Why?

Evidence shows JPMC severely underreported Epstein’s suspicious transactions to the U.S. government for decades, potentially in violation of federal anti-money laundering laws.

Public reporting, which JPMC has not disputed, shows that executives including the head of JPMC’s private bank for the ultra-wealthy, were warned repeatedly about Epstein but kept him on as a client.

Senator Ron Wyden @wyden.senate.gov · 20/10/2025
I want to know: with respect to Epstein’s crimes, what did JPMC execs know and when did they know it? If Dimon really knew nothing about Epstein, then how does he explain reported internal emails from his employees flagging Epstein’s activity for him?
212938672
Senator Ron Wyden @wyden.senate.gov · 20/10/2025
In September, we got new explosive details about JP Morgan’s deep relationship with Epstein. The reports contained shocking details about how bank execs blew off internal warnings for years to keep Epstein on as a client, enabling his trafficking.

It was a beautiful Sunday in Portland. Farmer’s markets, the Portland Marathon, peaceful protests, and some views of Mt. Hood. This city is vibrant, peaceful, and resilient. We do not need a federal occupation, and we sure as hell don’t want one.

Every single one of these clips was taken today in downtown Portland. Portland doesn’t want or need a federal takeover. If Trump insists on sending federal “resources” he can start with funding health care, bridges, affordable housing, and wildfire protection to name a few.

Republicans are about to decimate Medicaid across the country and their top two Senate leaders are trying to get their states exempted from the cuts at the 11th hour.
A screenshot of a tweet that reads “GOP negotiators looking at expanding the enhanced FMAP rate to at least three more states in addition to Alaska and Hawaii in order to pass muster with parliamentarian. Enhanced FMAP would be based on state population density and include North Dakota, South Dakota and Wyoming. Big effort being made to woo Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski.”

NEW: My staff got a new breakdown of who wins under the latest version of the Republican tax plan. See for yourself. Unlike Republicans, the numbers don't lie.
A bar graph titled tax cuts under the Republican budget. The X axis is titled household income level, one bar shows the tax cuts for a household making $30,000 a year or less, which is $151. The other bar shows tax cuts for a household earning $2 million a year or more, which is $308,763. The Y axis is labeled Republican tax cut and dollars.

Republicans may lie about what's in their budget bill but the numbers sure don't.
A bar graph. On the left side is a bar showing that Republicans are cutting $930 billion from Medicaid. On the right side is a bar showing that Republicans are giving $910 billion in tax breaks to corporations under their budget bill, paid for by gutting Medicaid.
