WATCH: Hillary EVISCERATES MAGA’s Bonkers Epstein Questions
Hillary Clinton’s closed-door Epstein deposition went exactly where you’d expect a MAGA-controlled hearing to go: straight into the fever swamps of Pizzagate and UFOs.
The former Secretary of State testified before the House Oversight Committee on Thursday, where she repeatedly denied knowing Jeffrey Epstein—only to watch Republican lawmakers abandon reality entirely.
She released her opening statement and it’s a masterclass in common sense and decency.
But then came the unhinged part. “It then got, at the end, quite unusual, because I started being asked about UFOs and a series of questions about ‘Pizzagate,'” Clinton said after the hearing.
➡️ Question of the Day
Should Trump be questioned by Congress for his Epstein ties next?
MAGA Billionaires Seize Control of CNN
MAGA-aligned billionaires Larry and David Ellison just won their bidding war for Warner Bros. Discovery—meaning CNN, HBO, and one of Hollywood’s biggest studios are about to answer to people who attend Trump’s State of the Union as honored guests. CNN is now expected to land under the control of Bari Weiss, the MAGA-curious Substacker already running CBS News. Read the full story→
Mamdani Scores MAJOR Wins In Second White House Visit
NYC’s democratic socialist mayor just walked out of Trump’s White House with $21 billion for affordable housing and the release of a detained Columbia student. Zohran Mamdani pitched building 12,000 affordable homes at Sunnyside Yard—complete with a fake newspaper mockup reading “Trump to City: Let’s Build”—and Trump absolutely ate it up.

Lutnick Photographed With Epstein in Bombshell Deleted File
Trump’s Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick appears in a photo with Jeffrey Epstein on the dead pedophile’s private island—an image mysteriously scrubbed from the DOJ’s Epstein Files database. The DOJ claimed the photo was pulled because it was “flagged for nudity” along with “thousands of images,” which is a totally normal and not-at-all-suspicious excuse for disappearing photos of powerful Trump officials cavorting with a child sex trafficker.

🗳️ Yesterday’s poll results
Yesterday, we asked: Is the DOJ breaking the law by intentionally withholding Epstein files?
99% said YES:
“The DOJ is covering up for trump and other rich men. We can no longer trust the government to do what is best for the average American”
- rosalie_pelch
“The FBI, DOJ, the government are all lying to Protect billionaires, politicians and very powerful people, these people believe that they are untouchable, the truth will come out, and they will pay for all the harm they have done to innocent people”
- ivanlcubillos
“Is there anything new in the trump administration breaking the law? I want donnie to remember that no matter what his administration accomplishes he will always be considered America’s worst president ever!”
- tomtrebes
“DOJ is absolutely breaking the law. The law does not provide them with the option of withholding documents they "think" are irrelevant.”
- crys62
“Enough! There’s enough proof Trump is a pedo (beside everything else) Remove him from office & his administration at once! We The People would like our “normal “ lives back again!!!”
- janenangle
“DOJ does not serve this country or Constitution any more. They specifically exist to protect Trump and cover up his crimes. It is beyond disgusting our taxpayer dollars support this agency.”
- a.smoot
“We need the TRUTH. We deserve the TRUTH. The TRUTH is that DJT and many other sexual predators were friends with Epstein and raped underage girls repeatedly for their sadistic pleasure. THATS THE TRUTH! Trump did the crime, now he MUST DO THE TIME!!! How is it that Maxwell is behind bars and Trump is free and President of the USA??? WE ALL KNOW HE IS A PREDATOR AND A CONVICTED RAPIST (who has never been punished AT ALL!) YET THE BRAVE WOMEN WHO CAME FORWARD WITH THE TERRORS FORCED ON THEM AS YOUNG GIRLS, WERE DISMISSED AND TURNED AWAY??!!!! Is this the America you want to live in? Do you feel proud of what Trump has done to these women, and many more??? These DARK DAYS WILL COME TO LIGHT, AND YOU NEED TO DECIDE NOW IF YOU WILL LIE UNDER OATH FOR TRUMP, OR GET JUSTICE FOR THESE YOUNG GIRLS WHO ARE SCARRED AND FORGOTTEN?!!! DO YOU EVEN CARE? WHAT MESSAGE ARE YOU SENDING TO OUR DAUGHTERS??? PLEASE DO NOT LET THIS SERIAL PREDATOR GET AWAY WITH THESE CRIMES!!!!!!!!!!!!”

The Election Steal They’re Planning in Plain Sight: MAGA’s Blueprint to Suspend Democracy
A group of MAGA activists with direct White House connections is pitching Donald Trump on a plan to declare a national emergency over fabricated Chinese election interference—a move that would let him unilaterally ban mail-in ballots and voting machines nationwide.
And they’re not hiding it. They’re doing this in broad daylight, speaking openly to reporters, drafting executive orders.
Because in Trump’s America, the quiet part is now the loud part: they’re planning to suspend democracy, and they’re betting no one will stop them.
