In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the Donald Trump Administration and Presidency.
This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.
Posted in Uncategorized
I have exactly $0.02 left over from this past week… so here it is…
In my opinion, the “MAGA division” narrative is the trap everybody is falling into, not the other way around. The vast criticism against everything going on wrt. “Epstein” is not division… it’s simply backlash… very vocal criticism… but not division. Don’t be afraid of criticism, whether it’s Epstein(*), or immigration, or any of the myriad other Hot Topics that everybody cares about.
Let’s put a little bit of context around this whole episode…
Does everybody remember back in the day when Sessions recused himself, making him basically useless as a defense against The Coup? How ’bout Christopher Wray… everybody remember that whole debacle? Bill Barr? He was a beauty. How ’bout H-1B’s? Any Supreme Court Justices anybody has any concerns about?
I mean, the list is probably twice as long as whatever 47 Priorities list anybody can come up with, and yet everybody still came out to vote for the guy… twice… and that doesn’t include the first time around. And everybody… except Republicans in Georgia, apparently… will come out to do whatever they can to secure Mid Term success, to the extent possible.
The fact is this: many people… including the guy who provides all of us with a wealth of knowledge and insight on a daily basis… are not comfortable with Bondi. And a good percentage are not totally sold on Kash, for that matter. Bongino is a side show… not so much a major player in any of this. Personally, I was more than willing to give Bondi, Kash, and whoever else is at the top of the Trump 2.0 pyramid, the benefit of the doubt… but others’ mileages may vary.
Be that as it may, what we’ve seen over the past couple of months from the top levels of DOJ and FBI has given many of us much cause for concern… like at the “What the hell is going on with Amy Coney Barrett?” levels of concern. Some very sketchy behavior, body language, statements, actions, etc. Flippity-floppity statements and Deer-In-The-Headlights Bartiromo interviews are not exactly comforting when so much is on the line. And by “on the line”, I mean the REALLY big items… way beyond “Epstein”… we all know that list. The last thing anybody needs to see, at this point, is an ineffectual AG. We’ve all been down the Sessions and Barr roads… and we are all well aware of where that road ends.
(*) Many of us out here see “Epstein” simply as a Bondi/Kash/whoever litmus test… that is all. But it’s a litmus test FOR THEM… not a defining moment for Trump 2.0. If Trump sticks with Bondi, then he sticks with Bondi… like he stuck with Sessions and Barr and Wray and so many others well beyond their best by dates. Yet… with whom would you have replaced those people? And this is the frustration: the feeling that YOU CAN NOT ACTUALLY FIX THE ACTUAL SYSTEM, despite Trump’s overall agenda and his best efforts to do so.
Actually Trump fell in it, true MAGAs are trying to pull him up . But he’ll always have our support.
Yep.
Pound sand Jerky
Or, he’s playing a game right now.
His words are out of character: how about understanding that on Truth Social he often says things to PROVOKE.
Ask yourselves of what benefit it is to him to provoke a response from the media, the Dems, and his base?
Of what benefit is it to him to UNITE those three disparate groups.
What did Trump tell us last week and once this week is coming–discussion of all the little kids Biden took who disappeared. Then he said, “We’re going to be talking about that in a bit, talking about it a lot.”
Think hard; he chose his words. They weren’t careless. Not last week, not this week, not in the post. What is he doing giving the media ammunition to criticize him?
I’ll let you think for a time.
I do not need your permission to think, TLHoward. Nor do I need President Trump’s approval of my thoughts, just as I did not need Elon Musk’s permission for my thoughts when he said he was going to f*ck me in my face because of my thoughts re H1B/whatever.
Ask yourself this – why should a sitting President be provoking people all the time?
There is a reason why people called Biden “Sleepy Joe”, and it’s not why you think.
5-D chess? Probably not.
fell into what, be specific.
epstein is arrested and dead
the vicitms have all opted for financial compensation with silence included
bbeat that dead horse
AND the system we need in the courts to try the case, win it doesn’t exist anymore.
AND at what cost would that all be- think of the bill for that level of lawfare, this case is a global situation.
I cannot imagine what the bill for this would be- are we fiscal Conservative or are we not?
Tough question as this would mean some people never getting righteous justice.
He was running interference with the “are we still talking about Epstien “line , he fell in .
Sure. Lol
No he didn’t.
If I remember correctly, Bondi WASN’T Trump’s initial choice for AG. His first choice was hated by the Uniparty and thus didn’t have the votes for confirmation. Blondie was a COMPROMISED choice……
Great point.
Something else for us to ponder is we might have been able to force Congress to give us Gaetz, but we didn’t fight for that. Think we were powerless? We could have demonstrated at state government buildings and we could have done walk outs. Or each of us could have done something, some small thing like call Congress, and our collective actions might have made a difference.
But we left it up to President Trump to fight.
Maybe we can rethink our roles in what we call Trump 47 and come up with more effective actions?
A great course of action has been pointed out by Dutchman many times: The power lies in Republican leadership in the states and we need to get MAGA seats at those tables!
I hope that he plans to go the way of Special Council. Working from the White House with well selected thick skinned lawyer. Makes you wonder what has Bondi with DOJ been doing for 6 months. Immigration? Street criminal? suing States. The people she said that interfered with deportations would be arrested…Newsom? anyone other than a nobody judge?
She’s had to review fils on jfk, rfk, mlk, and so many other files …
Hard truth, but truth. Trump can/could only get certain people approved via the swamp. And they are fighting back..big time(the swamp). Is Bondi -Barr, Sessions or Wray? I just don’t know.
As in country music, Trump is the only horse we can ride, nothing else is in the stable that we can. Or walk.. what is a better choice or the only real choice? Ya..none other than.
My two cents. VSGPDGT is a business man. When you run a business, there might be many things you want to do, but you don’t have the resources to do them all. A business man concentrates on what will give him the best Return on Investment (ROI). What is the ROI for spending rescources on Epstein? Franky, not much. Epstein is dead. Maxwell is in jail. The girls Epstein formerly handled are no longer being abused. The statute of limitations has likely run on most or all of the Johns.
Yes, you could embarrass some fat cats. Is that a good ROI? Do you take FBI agents assigned to breaking up the Mexican Drug Cartels or Iranian Sleeper Cells and have them work on Epstein instead? I don’t think so.
People have mentioned the children who are precious in God’s sight. Well, definitely there are higher priorities of relieving the children who are suffering right now. than of committing major resources toward crimes that may not even be prosecutable.
Children right now have been being rescued from trafficked situations, as well as those abusing them being arrested.
Aren’t they worthy of more attention than this old news of Epstein’s crimes? Is it worth criticizing PDJT’s every decision and all this angst by everyone over whatever may not please them the most?
There isn’t limitless resources on hand to use. What do people think PDJT’s superpower is, that he’s able to conjure up everything to be on hand that he’d need for what everyone else, in their wisdom, might consider to be a priority?
He is only a man…
When you start seeing marvelous and wondrous things start happening – remember to give God the Glory!
He’s the only One able to turn this country back around to our One Nation Under God!
We have to be in prayer and repentance, asking for His Blessing and Favor over our country.
Are we living out His love? Will we receive His Blessings? Are we asking Him diligently for them?
THIS^^^
You just nailed it.
thank you for your common sense posting
Well put
President Trump’s been carrying this Country around on his shoulders like Atlas for the last 10 years, could we please not make the job any harder for him than it already is. Especially regarding razor thin decisions that require highly acute judgement where he always turns out to be right anyway.
Surely there were many visitors to Epstein Island who weren’t involved in the heathen behavior – this would be Scum-Bag 101 just to clusterphuch the situation (and I believe that was indeed reported early on). Thousands of high profile cases having to be dealt with in the courts on an individual basis – politically it’s stupid to try and prosecute them. Rolling around in a cesspool with the Globalists for the rest of his term.
This is where the trolls enter the picture – this is purely an operation to divide us – Alex Jones has gone anti-Trump, Jones (unfortunately) is probably a broken man and Elon is bailing him out. A facit of this operation could also be a pantomime between Bondi and Dan Bongino both very interested in Media careers and who would be catering to different audiences. The reality is everything is great – The Big Beautiful Bill just passed and Iran doesn’t have Nuclear Weapons – hardly the outcomes of an Administration in turmoil – we’re going to save America with or without Jones and Elon. We’re going to do it everyday until it’s done!
Far be it from me to criticize Donald J. Trump, the only person to do anything for this Country since Ronald Reagan.
And Trump is a much bigger figure, he’s a Giant.
That’s weird all the Influencers had a meeting with the DOJ just before the Epstein fiasco, and we were all expecting them to whitewash the announcement – instead they’ve all had the biggest fit ever – is Bondi trying to orchestrate a coup within the Party to wreck her own Administration – is Bondi Jeff Sessions 2.0 – she will wind up left in the wilderness just like Jeff.
I believe the democrats have become impotent so the attacks (rinocrats) are all coming from the inside. The good news is the rinos have already lost this battle 3 times and will continue to do so (what was it Einstein said about insanity). Be positive – this will soon pass – but I’m expecting wave after wave of assault after they get bitch-slapped and continue to reorganize (just like it’s always been).
Trump knows he’s put people at AG he couldn’t trust, there’re reasons he’s had to do this – the Country needs legal reform badly – he’s exposing himself for us. Trump knows we’re going to win anyway.
Bingo!
Trump huge ovation today at FIFA World Club Cup Championship at Met-Life Stadium in New Jersey.
@Mr Piddles- well said. I’ve come to a similar conclusion over the past few days
Trump’s greatest super power is outing the frauds, like watching a Scooby Doo flick. And oh, the MAGA frauds, are outing themselves like never before.
I predict Tucker will be one of the most visible examples ripping off his mask.
Trump’s team seems to have bad coaches, bad referees, and players betting against his wins. But he’s still moving the ball forward despite it all.
But will they (we) all turn out in the mid-terms ??? That’s the thing; majorities Must be maintained in Both chambers.
The midterms are still a long way away. A lot can happen between now and then.
I don’t think its disclosable right now and can be good leverage wielded by Trump….. bet some of that information could topple governments and blow up peace deals … Israel cough…. etc
Alex Jones is reporting The President is warning that the democrats have doctored the files.
Yes to everything you just said Mr. Piddles. We chose the lesser evil and have tried to work with what we have. That is our challenge.
Many posts represent the difference between this biblical Changing of the Guard and Revolution.
When the endless chattering finally ends…..change will begin. This is the foundation of the frustration and dissatisfaction Americans feel. We are awake and aware. It is not comfortable.
Ephesians 5:6
Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things the wrath of God is coming on the sons of disobedience.
Titus 3:9
But avoid foolish controversies, genealogies, arguments, and quarrels about the law, because these things are pointless and worthless.
1 Timothy 6:20
O Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to you. Avoid irreverent, empty chatter and the opposing arguments of so-called “knowledge,”
Colossians 2:8
See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, which are based on human tradition and the spiritual forces of the world rather than on Christ.
OUR words will not fix this because it is biblical. God has already explained this phenomen we are in evil times, in a realm and domain that humans cannot control. Our brain cannot fix this. Ephesians 6: 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Essentially God has explained to the generations already, different people/same demons. Throughout history. Elijah experienced government, and its servants trying to destroy him….just like Americans have been going through with our government and its servants. Different people/same demons. Elijah 1 Kings 18:20-40, The Prophets of Baal Defeated.
Maybe I assumed facts not in evidence, but I voted to wrest control of our government back from the deep state operatives and bureaucrats and put it back in the hands of We the People. Part of that process, I was told, was exposing those on the Epstein list revealing their compromised positions, who had control over them and prosecute them for their crimes. Trump’s condescending reprimand of that reporter that asked Bondi about the Epstein list – that she had on her desk – tells me two things 1) the deep state is still firmly in control and 2) the perverse rot is way deeper and more widespread than can be imagined. Trump’s reaction, to me, was that of a man frightened of the unimaginably far reaching consequences of exposing that list. If that’s the case, if the filth running western governments is that deep, that its exposure might just destroy it all, it’s not worth saving, then.
Our complacency makes us complicit in all of this. Trump crossed a line and has shown he cannot save us. But then, I never thought he could.
all, it’s not worth saving, then.
Tell me, wise one, what’s your plan B? Asking for a friend.
I never expected any president to save me and don’t now. Therefore President Trump hasn’t ‘crossed a line’ because of this one thing, but ymmv.
It really sounds hopeless.
You should just give up.
Or
Realize that you are not going to get everything you want., and win every battle.
Know that after PDJT, you will never in your lifetime have a President again that fights, succeeds and honestly attempts to carry out the will will of The People.
For better or worse.
Optimal outcomes, not perfect ones.
Most of us voted Repubs in Georgia , it was Fulton and Dekalb county, Savannah, Macon where we know the left cheated and because our local repubs don’t have a set, they got away with it . Who would believe Georgia would end up with two Dems as senators. I have been and still call it BS
Fraudulent election, no doubt.
Obvious Voter Fraud.
AZ the same-
your govna is corrupt as hell..And that ratsburger is a gem….but looking at your legislators….mirror image of DC republicans. The whole party is putrid. I know allot of people are scared of the Constitutional Convention…but that might be the only way
My sarcastic remark is in reference to a specific instance: for the Walker/Warnock vote, something like 30% of registered Republican voters turned out to vote… that’s just the (R)s. Then the runoff was even worse… I think it was under 25% of just (R)s, if I recall… maybe 22%? Something crazy like that. Obviously, that’s not going to get the job done. I’m sure other areas of the country are similar, of course… or, at least, less than ideal… so don’t mean to single out GA. But given everything at stake at the time, that Senate seat was a no brainer… regardless of how you felt about Walker.
We have to remember this:
The New Yawk real estate developer Donald Trump has a lifetime of experience in finding the path to do what he’s trying to do.
He looks at the rules written on paper and then says “Okay, so how do I do this and yet follow these rules?”
Okay, so there are people in these positions that we don’t like or want, maybe they are there because of deals Trump made to get things done- who knows. But this doesn’t mean that he can’t move forward on his agenda and respond to what has us all fired up.
He can keep these people in place and then look for the work arounds.
I mean knowing how to work this way is business as usual up here and in heavily regulated deep blue states and the Trump’s are certainly experts at it or they wouldn’t be what they are.
I rack everything up to my beloved PT genius and showmanship. It’s a good thing he’s mostly on our side. I take the E list for all the other distractions and wish lists that never pan out. 2020 was arranged to lose and come back…for show. MONEY and DEALS were made! No one goes to jail!
It’s the only way it makes sense. Either that or we erase you.
What about a year ago….for show? All the court cases for show? Not buying it. Not buying.
Hey Mr P, it is a litmus test, but not just that. I agree with TLHwd. This is much deeper. Danny Boy is pushing for sunlight. Pam is pushing for cover/shadow. Kash is trying to stay out of it, he is frying a different fish.
My 2c sees this more as a culture test. Think of Howard Hoover (Kash never did say why the Hoover Bldg was unsafe), Hugh Heffner and the Play Boy clubs. How much tape went to the CIA/FBI? Epstein is no different.
I believe that this trial, like much of 45-47’s task, is to make us all aware of how corrupt some of our government and history are. This is not to bring shame on the country, just enlightenment (and shame onto the corrupticons).
The MAGA division is a concentrated effort to sow fake outrage about a nonsensical issue. It’s apparent and the intelligence level in this blog has stooped to lowest level I’ve seen with the amount of people here falling for it.
It’s like we’ve been invaded by illegal Aliens. They aren’t sending their best but it seems to be working.
Never seen your handle before either. There are quite a few I don’t recognize.
“Sgrok13” has been here since 9/20. (Possibly before that, as our records for CTH 2.0 begin on 9/20)
Actually there are quite a few commenters here tonight that I don’t recognize but are making very valid points.
Mr. Piddles you are the hammer, and the nail is driven.
on the anniversary of President Trump assassination, we character assassinated him instead of being grateful he took a bullet for us.
His so-called “friends” did, but many true supporters did not.
He has already survived two Deep State assassination attempts after years of character and lawfare assassination attempts.
Epstein be damned — I stand with President Trump.
All or nothing leaves you with nothing.
Wake up!
Retired Magistrate here: Thank you. We need to look at the big picture and all the promises President Trump made he is acting on and succeeding.
Is most of Washington, D.C. corrupt; certainly. However, one man can’t clean it up in the next 16 months, before the mid terms. What President Trump can do is make life better for American citizens. We have never had a perfect president, nor will we. The only perfect King we have is JESUS CHRIST.
Well said from our favourite magistrate.
Thank you Lorrie! Epstein issues are far less consequential than all that has been done to POTUS and We The People. That is the effort worth pursuing to have the most impact for our Republic.
Yup!
What makes me nuts is the people who claim to be MAGA but insist on treating this presidency like a sporting match. What do they think is going to happen to them if President Trump fails?
It’s not like we have people who are more competent just waiting for a chance to fix things. Oh wait, it looks like Tucker Carlson plans to run.Sure, he’ll take care of it all. Sure he will. He is excellent at talking, looking perplexed, and laughing like a drunken frat boy.
And on the anniversary Tucker gives a speech like this:
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/media/article-14901237/tucker-carlson-calls-conservatives-summit-tampa-conference.html
Just so…..if he fails, we fail – period. The downside is overwhelming. Plus, we have to know we don’t have a deep bench when all is said and done.
It’s hard to find competent people who’ve already “made it” in the world and who are willing to give up everything — even their lives — to fight for we the people.
More than hard; it’s close to impossible, or at least it was until President Trump took up the fight.
Several members of President Trump’s cabinet fit that description, I believe they know the very Republic is at stake.
(Aren’t there five billionaires in the cabinet?)
You nailed it.
Well said
How many times must Trump go full-on Sun Tzu, only to deliver on the other side of chaos, after either he or his administration get smeared by far too many on his own team?
If MAGA is stumped, just IMAGINE what the enemy is dealing with…the more MAGA bitches, the worse it is for the other side
Passing out the Tums. You’re welcome.
You have mice in your pocket? Speak for yourself please.
its a method of talking that can get sucker punch’d like that due to the “we” vulnerability.
I wanted to avoid saying “you”
I didnt forget the assassination attempt. looks like you didnt either.
I know ,an what an amazing president we have and so blessed that God was with him that awful night,
Forever grateful that this man has gone out of his way , forgoing the terrific life he had, for the people of this country. The courage and determination shown in the face of the assassination attempts was beyond reproach.
This does not mean that people with the ability to think for themselves can’t question some of the moves that are made especially in the face of the promises to take down the deep state which many overwhelmingly voted for.
It’s a fact he did not surround himself with the most patriotic people in many spots the first term, and I think we can question and have questioned from the start some of the current picks.
All we want for this country is the stop to the invasion and deportations, the stop of stealing our money by congress and others, the stop the rampant pedo industry so much of the deep state is involved in, and the return of this country to the Patriots that work hard on the daily basis for God, family and country. God help us all and guide our great President in this direction despite the difficulties it encompasses.
No, not “we”.
I, for one do not identify with Trump haters, nor those who refuse to acknowledge that even the best leaders, like PDJT, are often forced to choose between equally bad or worse choices.
I also don’t identify with virtue-signaling purity testers who claim POTUS is necessarily compromised because of Blondi’s gross mismanagement of the Epstein crap.
In short, the same people who are busy assassinating the character of the President are exactly no different than the scum who have been attempting the same thing since 2016.
BTW Trump is parading her around like she’s actually doing something.
Landslide, I totally agree…I deleted further comments because it won’t change minds of those who have obviously never had to make those decisions.
Yup and I agree!
Looks like Tucker Carlson is running for President in 2028. I’m not surprised, although this attack on President Trump is somewhat surprising because he’s not in control of democrat cities and he must get the economy going and more illegals out before he can do a full assault on the cities. But Carlson isn’t concerned with any of that. He’s in it for Carlson. Buckle up.
Tucker might beat Vance (depending on how the techies swing) but Marco Rubio would give Carlson a run for his money.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/media/article-14901237/tucker-carlson-calls-conservatives-summit-tampa-conference.html
If he hates Israel, Carlson isn’t going anywhere.
If Carlson runs, it will be as a splitter candidate. He has a sizeable fan base.
If he runs, it will destroy his career. He will lose big time in the primaries and never be the same with his podcasts again. He will be looked at as a traitor by most of MAGA supporters.
I have to ask the same question I ask of all candidates: what experience does the candidate have in successfully running a large organization in which failure is costly to the candidate.
AFAIK – not Tucker.
This is why I voted for Trump – lots of experience in turning risks into reward and he ran his own show.
Watch this Tucker interview where he said Murdoch had tried to get him to run against Donald Trump….He made it pretty clear that he wasn’t interested in running then or now. Stated numerous times that he did not hate Israel and that he loved Donald Trump.
I think his wife would never agree especially after having to hide in her house from a leftist screaming crowd on the front lawn.
Haven’t been online much because of event planning, just trying read a bit here at meals…
Therefore I hadn’t heard this 2028 plan. 🙄
I’ve already skipped listening to Tucker for days and days now. Used to enjoy it.
Heading right now to one of my email accounts to report his unsolicited mailing as spam.
He’s trying to screw with the PDJT legacy. Not gonna fly!
Listened to Tucker today on an 11 hour drive-and his guest a son of Indian migrants, named Sagaar Enjeti. Enjeti is a smug self important person who cannot wait to bash PDJT. These guys have just been WAITING for a chance to diss PDJT. And boy do they hate Israel.
Tucker was being paid $30 million a year at FOX. I don’t think he’s worried about losing your viewership or his career. Tucker has a lot support and I agree with most of his observations. I don’t think he’s against President Trump at all.
Did you listen to his speech? Or do you just think he’s a great guy and it doesn’t matter what this does to MAGA?
Nothing needs to be eaten as hot as it’s cooked. There is no disruption to MAGA, it’s goals, actions or support for the noble endeavor. It’s a tough road; To have Discussion, frustration and skepticism for all things related to media and government is a fair use of discernment for any liberty loving, free thinking human. Takes nothing away from POTUS or his worthy agenda. Ms Bondi made a mess in her rollout and communications hence this back peddling and she is weak link in cabinet. We don’t need to have her finger wagging or dismissal for calling out perceived errors or for the misread of the people /voters who really do care. The Epstein follies are an issue, for many reasons including trust – it’s a swamp thing, with dark forces of global power and influence connected. There are elite and powerful agents mixed in the nexus of this,e.g.. Peter theil,palantir, !! & the various IC silos) according to 2023 records release from lawsuit.
Tucker is trying to crash President Tump’s influence. I’m against that.
Stop trying to blowviate by confligating an array of ideas that don’t address my point. Stop trying to silence me by implying I’m against disucssion. I’m not. I’m against people who want to destroy MAGA.
Tucker is not “discussing.” He’s spreading propaganda.
For example, we all agree blue cities are a disgusting mess, but to blame President Trump for not fixing them right now is propaganda — pushing against MAGA and President Trump’s leadership (highlighting something we all wants while blaming President Trump for not correcting the problem and at the same time not recognizing all the great things he has done).
People need to be aware of this, so they aren’t as easily hookwinked as they might be by Tucker’s practiced tongue.
If Tucker wants something (for example more pro Iran policies), he needs to address that directly and not sneak around trying to hold President Trump accountable for problems currently out of his control and that he had no part in creating.
LOL
Agree!
The campaign against him and Candace
was revealed awhile ago.
Guess some people don’t know it yet. 🙄
From listening regularly to Tucker…who
does cackle and guffaw too much…he
has great guests so I follow…he probably
doesn’t know..or care about the efforts
being made to silence him. 😁
Don’t know what is worse “Christian “
pastors taking the bribe -or
those who were doing the bribing…thinking
they would get away with it. 🤬
Candace Owens on X: “Noticing an increase in anti “Candace and Tucker” content. Today we showed you verifiable proof that Rabbis in Israel are offering, among other things, BITCOIN to pastors to preach against us on Sunday. Read the email from Rabbi Shlomo Riskin! THIS IS DEMONIC. https://t.co/FBUGg5GjJ9” / X
TO CATCH A PREDATOR! Israel BRIBING Pastors And Influencers. | Candace Ep 207
Rumble……
People were sending her the letters they received!
👍 👏 😁
And she actually had a clip of a “Christian pastor “
during his “sermon “ who was actually spouting
the nonsense about Candace and Tucker.
Just. No. Words.
These are outright lies and deception. These statements are fomenting a 21st blood libel, a second Jewish holocaust. Outrageous but not surprising given the increasing antisemitism that’s been influencing this site. The Christian’s I know and love would never tolerate this evil rhetoric.
Not like what she broadcasted is some
Big secret. She has a large platform.
Many other podcasters repeated her story.
Maybe the Rabbi will file a lawsuit..Discovery
process would be quite a story!
She already has the President of France sending
her letters, entertainment persons…a Rabbi would
be interesting.
He won’t need that. He will be compensated by the swamp. Book deal(s) for sure.
“He will lose big time in the primaries and never be the same with his podcasts again.”
You’ve got it.
diminishing as we speak
By the time we get to the next election, being too pro Israel will be a negative. We saw it with the Iran war and the Israelis’ very aggressive attempt to push us into a regime change war.
People are not going to forget that.
I don’t Tucker Carlson hates Israel or any particular group or country.
What he hates is seeing the United States being constantly abused by Israel and it’s leaders!
We have our own problems and budget issues. Israel is a wealthy county with wealthy citizens who can easily afford to finance their own wars!
but..but ..Joan and few others here will never ever understand it……….they all reject your 2nd sentence…..
President Trump is not governing on sentiment.
President Trump is not governing on what “should be,” no matter how strongly anyone believes they know what is “the right way.”
President Trump is governing on the reality of power bases in the world and how to deal with them to get what he wants for this country!
Additionally, not everything can be achieved st one time. Some things must be in place before others. That is the reality of the world and wishing it wasn’t so doesn’t change things.
Tucker just has a very legitimate concern that Israel seems to control the USA (its politics, finance and media).
That control is very evident and not even disputable.
Depending on your politics , this is either acceptable or not to any given individual.
Ahh will i am glad you can see all the control strings. Do they lobby yes do they do PR yes but who doesnt?
Okay I will take the bait, ” What he hates is seeing the United States being constantly abused by Israel and it’s leaders!”
How exactly are we being abused ?
We just gave Israel $20 billion to murder people who live in their own country!
Your slip is showing.
People won’t be able to get past his cackle-laugh thing. Even if he manages to stifle it, people will be regularly offered samples to enjoy.
When it comes to competency required for being President. Tucker is really not all that much better off than Kamala.
Tucker is good with what he does with a mic in his hand. Kamala on her knees is good at what she does. However, when it comes to running the United States there are better choices.
.
Tucker is so totally not qualified to be president that I can’t believe anyone even is seriously talking about this.
.
Listen to Tucker’s speech. The only thing that makes sense is that he is positioning himself to run or he could be positioning to support someone who is not in the 47 administration.
He is qualified he has all the merits required 1 not being a career politican is a plus
That just confirms how presidents are normally selected.
At this point it appears to be mainly leftists because they like what appears to be blood in the water.
Notice I said “appears to be”.
Maybe some libertarians who are of the more left leaning branch.
I wouldn’t vote for that giggling fool under any circumstances especially with his change of attitude about President Trump. Above and beyond that, I don’t think he’s a decent choice anyway.
I wonder if Candace Owens will be his running mate? That should be…entertaining.
Tucker is no way qualified, skilled or serious enough to handle the job of President of the USA.
President Trump is big in stature, brain power, critical thinking skills, vision and action
we need all in a president who can do good for the country and its citizens
all Tucker has is a big mouth
“Looks like Tucker Carlson is running for President in 2028.”
As a political talking head Carlson has on occasion had some big hits. I’m not one of his haters, but his Presidential run wont be going anywhere., and not going to vote for him, ever. It’ll be a stupid mistake for him to run, he has far more power fighting in the culture wars.

Trump to meet with NATO secretary general amid plan to sell weapons to Ukraine
Trump is set to meet with Mark Rutte this week on the heels of the U.S. leader announcing plans to sell NATO allies weapons that it can pass on to Ukraine.
[…]Lindsey Graham confirmed on “Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan” that he and Richard Blumenthal will be meeting with Rutte on Monday.
[…]“A turning point regarding Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is coming,” Graham said.
[…]I don’t want to get ahead of the President, but stay tuned about seized assets.

Hmm so they buy then and do what they want with them
Russia blows them up as they enter theater… we may have found a way to keep the weapons merchants happy and all that happens is Ukraine losses bridges and rails and Europe loses money.
I am mostly serious
Graham and Blumenthal trying to—sell a War.
Not buying. 🤬
THEY both look like Epstein Island veterans!
SO, if I as a MAGA voter who is distressed – as are many others – with the way Bondi handled the Epstein Files and with the way President Trump responded to that distress, I need to be scolded and sent to the woodshed. I am supposed to be neutralized as not having any future representation because I was simply asking for what they said was going to be there.
So then I should know that it is no use to voice worries about the latest development with Ukraine; now THAT that will be the new litmus test to prove that I am 100% truly the new and revised MAGA and I should ignore my previous understanding that President Trump was going to call a halt to the warmongering. If I say this version of MAGA is looking somewhat watered-down, thinned-out, what’s the response?
“How dare you!”
Hey! I am feeling like “Oliver Twist” . . .
“More gruel, please?”
Oliver Twist and the gruel . . .
“Please sir, I want some more.”
That’s what he actually said, so politely and respectfully, including “please” and addressing the Master of the Workhouse as “sir”.
Sue Jeanne….
Hang in there…. I absolutely know how
you are feeling.
👏 👍 👏
.
Perhaps it would be more useful to try to understand why she did what she did and suggest actions. Bitching accomplished little. Bondi was ignorant of the facts, new in the job, and screwed up. It happened. It’s done. What are you “distressed” about?
Ditto with reengaging the anti-warmongering crap coupled with the concern trolling about a “watered-down MAGA”. Trump hasn’t got us into any war, and never promised to be a passive pacifist. Why do you think he’s so about building up the military.
.
Based on her conduct during the George Zimmerman case, it seemed to be a pattern. Try to understand? What is to understand about a state attorney general who worked against a citizen of the state and really was the author of his suffering at the hands of that state through a gruesome persecution and prosecution.
Ignorant of the facts. New in the job. Screwed up. Okay, that’s the best you have? It’s her character – or lack thereof – that is something that she brought with her to the job she has now and when she was AG for Florida.
Regarding sending those arms to NATO for Ukraine:
I want President Trump to build up OUR military for OUR nation’s protection. Arm us to the teeth, make us so safe and strong that no one wants to hassle us. This is not that.
Based on her conduct during the George Zimmerman case, it seemed to be a pattern.
Yeah, but hardly anyone knows about that
Mostly readers of a couple of conservative blogs like this one
I’d guess maybe a couple percent of the adult voting population
.
Two things that appear to be completely unrelated. What is the common motivation that I’m apparently missing?
.
“Why do you think he’s so about building up the military.”
To protect America.
Not to act as the muscle for globalist war adventurers.
I’m more concerned with solving the murder/death of Phil Haney, but I’m pretty sure we’ll never have answers to that death either.
AND finding out what information he’d discovered that got him killed.
I’d rather see the US sanction Ukraine and its Azov Nazis
Bull shyte…make both him and Da Nang dick go away
OMG Really. What a bunch of BULL….
Mimsy Graham, the WARPIG.
Bleh.

Revolting.
So Trump gets elected to stop war and forces WWIII / world partition instead (because China will turn around and say > Go F Yourself Donnie.
And what about all of that don’t hate Putin or see Russia as the threat they try to manipulate us into thinking it is?

Col Doug Macgregor: Russia Ramping Up Forces to End Ukraine War
( 16 min )
I am still praying 🙏 for an Appomattox.
I think that, far more than the discussion of Russia’s escalating efforts to finish “the Ukraine war” on its own terms, this video was really mostly about “BRICS.”
Because: “This appears to be the one thing that the USA is not yet ready to embrace.” Namely: that “we are not ‘the masters of this planet!'” Goody-for-you what you did to extend financial help to countries that had been utterly devastated by WW2, but that was eighty years ago!
Right now, I perceive that the USA (my(!) country!) is “stubbornly antagonistic” to this new development. Therefore, they are maybe incapable of realizing that “it makes sense.”
Which puts you exactly in the position of [any industrialist] who was confident that they had “an exclusive” on [some technology] that “could never change.”
For example: “IBM, under ‘Tom, Senior.'” His accountants were telling him that he had it made, because he owned all of the patents on punched cards. But “Senior” had the wisdom to yield control to “Junior,” who was confident that the potential market for “computers” was more than “a few dozen units.” (No, I am not kidding.)
The global economy is going to change, because for an awful lot of people it no longer works. “WW2 was a very long time ago.” Either you resist it, or you open your mind and try to embrace it. As “Tom, Senior” did.
“eighty years ago!”
released 40 years ago, please forgive that the author was writing from a lefty anti-American viewpoint, sneeringly mocking the nom de ridicule “EuroDisease”. He’s a Brit, I believe
it’s a well-constructed critique and nicely melodic, particularly in the chorus
“Once Allies laughed and drank
“But that was Forty Years ago”
I used to follow this guy.
Wish I had a dime for every failed prediction he has made.
Yep, he’s pretty controversial, as to whether he’s right or full-o-baloney.
JULY 13 2025
Tom Cotton :
Putin has ‘more to lose on the battlefield’ than ‘negotiating table
U.S. Senator Tom Cotton stated that Vladimir Putin shows no intention of ending the conflict in Ukraine, as he continues to target civilian infrastructure and prolong the war in the east.
He emphasized that President Donald Trump, from the very beginning of his term, tried to stop the war — unlike Joe Biden and Barack Obama, whose actions, according to Cotton, provoked Russia’s invasion.
“It doesn’t seem like Vladimir Putin is seeking peace, since he continues attacks on civilian targets in Ukraine, not to mention the drawn-out war in the eastern part of the country.
I wouldn’t say President Trump was soft on Putin — from the very beginning of his term, he worked to bring this war to an end. I think it’s clear to everyone that, given the current situation on the battlefield, things will ultimately end in some sort of negotiated agreement.
That’s because Joe Biden — just like Barack Obama before him — by their actions gave Putin a reason to invade Ukraine again. That didn’t happen under Trump, I’d like to point out. Then Biden began supplying weapons to Ukraine slowly — not so that Ukraine could win, but just so it wouldn’t lose while he remained president.
President Trump repeatedly offered Putin opportunities to agree to a ceasefire.
Now, as the whole world sees, Putin is clearly not aiming for that — at least at the moment.
Progress can only be made through the approach Trump has taken time and again — as he showed last month with Iran: peace can only be achieved through strength.
Putin must be made to understand clearly that on the battlefield in Ukraine, he risks losing more than he would at the negotiating table,” Cotton stressed.
hmmmmm
perhaps Putin’s people are lying to him

I imagine so when you have had many Trump insiders like Alina Habba who made such public declarations about all of those terrible things in the Epstein file and now they all look like fools or liars.
“We have flight logs. We have information, names. That will come out,” Habba told Piers Morgan in February.
i’m getting a little tired of posting the address, contact list, and flight log links. or the one girl’s trial that released named included.
you have seen it posted right

Not sure when the Patriot Act is up for renewal, but it’ll be interesting to see how Trump navigates this pile of manure. He’s gonna have to walk a fishing line here. The GOP has Trump in a vice more than he has them in a vice. Just like with Epstein, sit back and watch the story-telling.
Large parts of the US government are out of the control of the President and Congress, so maybe the reauthorization is just window-dressing anyway. They will do what they want and no one can stop them.
God can!
Did God save PDJT for such an outcome as you infer will come?
PDJT has God leading and imparting wisdom to him. He’s brought PDJT here for such a time as this – we’re very fortunate that PDJT, in his free will, accepted God’s leading.
You have a narrow vision premised only on what’s behind you.
Start speaking positives for what is to come – words have power!
For the life of me, I can’t understand how any thinking person could have actually thought that records accessbile to the DOJ/fbi which PROVED corruption or would have lent crediblity to the idea that Trump was right in criticizing the intel agencies/fbi would have remained intact and available to member of a Trump administration !!!!!!
If anything, the Comeys of the world would have planted fake docs.
The entirely of the DOJ is full of Dem lawyers. The FBI will take years to make right, if then. We know that gov’t workers hate any politician critical of the gov’t.-
STOP THE UNICORN THINKING. Stop thinking like a pre-adolescent girl.
Here’s the problem , the Trump administration should have made it very clear from early on that the records DO NOT EXIST .
The fact that they didn’t do that and did quite the opposite is why this is such a problem .
the DAMN RECORDS DO EXIST
somehow the snake whispers List in our ear and we trot along until we get lost.
I’ve posted the list of names bondi released at least 10 times on this site. if you are readingcomments you saw them
“I can’t understand how any thinking person could have actually thought”
I know what your problem is…
…and it’s that you assume the reactionaries are:

and
2) that these are “thinking people”
One year. I am still at 3 shooters, or 2 and a spotter, and Crooks was not a shooter.
Watch:
Thank you trapper.
IMHO we need the truth on the PDJT attempted assassinations most critically.
More such attempts could happen at any moment, while Epstein will certainly not be rising from the dead to destroy any more children.
aren’t there any laws against this?
https://www.breitbart.com/immigration/2025/07/13/los-angeles-to-give-cash-cards-to-families-affected-by-ice-raids/
It’s a felony to fund illegal aliens . Despite that fact nobody has been held accountable for it including Biden and co for illegally allowing 12+ million to flood the country .
No. ” Not from the cities coffers but, philanthropist.” Meaning == Soros
So, I guess if they have all that money, we can decrease the federal tax dollars.
Yes, but the laws continue to be ignored which is why democrats continue to ignore them.

Yesterday, Trump posted a very long post on Truth Social about Epstein.
Trump seemed to pivot from insisting that there are no Epstein files to acknowledging their fabled existence. His new story? The files are forgeries “written by Obama, Crooked Hillary, Comey, Brennan, and the Losers and Criminals of the Biden Administration.”
So where does this leave us? It’s hard to say, but here are my tentative conclusions:
1-There are Epstein files, and they are embarrassing for Trump or those close to him.
2-He is worried they will eventually be released and thus wants to discredit them in advance.
An hour after Trump’s social media post, Steve Bannon took to the stage at Turning Point USA’s Student Action Summit to “deconstruct” Trump’s plan. Bannon, who has proven a strong barometer of Trump’s appeal to the MAGA faithful, boiled down Trump’s message to this: The president will soon have Pam Bondi appoint a special prosecutor to investigate and charge his political opponents. According to Bannon, that investigation will cover, among other things, the activities of Democrats in the 2016 and 2020 elections. He hinted that it may even be used to prosecute those who held the Jan. 6 insurrectionists accountable.

agree. And now some democrats want it released which leads me to believe that the so-called “list” has been revised. At this point, let sleeping dogs lie. The dems have had way too many opportunities to falsify information and add new information that did not previously exist.
If embarrassing stuff to Trump existed in any Epstein files. It would have been used by the Biden DOJ to tank him in the election.
The only persons being embarrassed are those who thinknAT THIS LATE DATE that anything exists in any Epstein files to hurt Trump.

Democrats will never stop lying.
2028 presidential hopeful Ruben Gallego on X spreading inaccurate information about a recent Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operation at a California cannabis farm.
The false claims began circulating widely on X, where Gallego reposted a video originally shared by political commentator Brian Allen. The farm in question—Glass House Farms in Ventura County—does not produce food crops.
Allen stated, “ICE just swarmed Ventura County fields, hauling away the very farm workers who keep America’s produce aisles stocked. We’re arresting assets; treating the backbone of our food chain like a threat.”
Gallego added to the narrative by writing, “Instead of prioritizing dangerous criminals, Trump is targeting families that have been here for years picking our food. The public outcry and protests are occurring because the American public knows this is wrong. Instead of prioritizing dangerous criminals Trump is targeting families that have been here for years picking our food.
The public outcry and protests are occuring because the American public knows this is wrong”.
https://x.com/RubenGallego/status/1943465094114849193
if you had more farms more spread out. and incentive programes like memberships and co-ops created including their own grocery chain like HEB – it would solve this
Ruben Gallego is owned by the cartels IMO.
There were children being used for labor at that pot farm in Ventura. That is breaking the law. Ergo, the farm was engaged in illegal activity, and the illegals there were at the very least accomplices to it (the owners were perps).
And where oh where did those kids come from? Were they actual citizens? Probably not.

what was the deal. did it include privacy. if so, its over.
thats how the law works. money is dangled and people take it
The first thing I noticed was that the Axios report was dropped the night before Netanyahu met with Trump.
It appears that the uproar against silencing the investigation is that it diminishes our hopes that those funding and participating in these egregious activities will not be exposed or held to account.
VSG President Trump deserves our respect, yet as Sundance clearly reminds us, observe Susie Wiles and those gatekeepers surrounding him…
This brings us to a point of ambivalence.
Even a president can only do so much when he has to depend on others to carry the torch. Lot of torchbearers in President Trump’s administration who can start the fire or put it out.
its insightful.
but its a constant that can not be changed
investigatiton was completed. it was not silenced.
the plea deal is the damn deal. and thats it. they are called Jane Does for a reason.
The second thing I noticed Pimpernel was that Israel media began saturating the media with stories of sexual crimes in the basement of the Knesset (Parliament)….Those stories & the saturation of Epstein’s name were almost simultaneous.
Is the “Scarlet Pimpernel” seeing red?
The next level for draining the swamp is about to begin. Trump needed to first find out who is with him and who are the fakes. We see it happen right here on CTH.
It is better to find out now than wait until in the middle of the battle. The battle will be fought with a far greater efficiency minus deterring baggage. It all makes perfect sense President Trump had to “cull” before the next crucial step.
When the influencers (e.g., Kirk, Rogan) start pulling away, something is afoot. They smell what’s going down.
joe will come back. Texas is a heavy influence on him. he won’t be allowed to talk much shit about PDJT
Kirk is preserving his future. he has nothing without creating a nation of viewers.
Trust the Plan..
It is obvious Bondi trusts the “plan” and Bondgino does not. It is better to know it now than later in the middle of the battle.
Trump hasn’t given up on draining the swamp. Trump just wants to know he has the correct “tools” necessary for doing so.
.
Looks like the left, aided by ignorami on the right who can’t bother to pay attention to the facts, or else can’t get past some kind of prurient fantasies, have succeeded in convincing people that there were “pedophiles” on Epstein Island, that there are “files” that can be released, that there is an Epstein “list”, and oh oh woeisme the “children”, “won’t anyone think of the children”…

maybe the Trump MAGA base is saying something to Trump and they want him to listen to them. …. you know as Saint Francis says ” it is better to UNDERSTAND than to have others understand you”.
Trump has wonderful skill of LISTENING TO MAGA people, and others, he is good listener. All the MAGA people shouting at Trump are asking him to listen to them, not treat them like “idiots”. 😉
How exactly is he treating them like “idiots”?
maybe this is the first time you are learning the scope of this. and after reading all the provided links you think fck you are right.

its over.

Listen to them toward what end? To accomplish what? Unless someone has a productive idea, based in fact, if he wants to complain and vent and be listened to, well Trump isn’t his therapist.

Maybe they need to be reminded to not act so emotionally.
A MAGA base that you are obviously not a part of for once again posting nonsense
read through all the comments from last night and today.

the people claiming to be MAGA but who insist that epstein is the be all and end all issue of this Presidency
aren’t MAGA at all and never were, they’re provocateurs.
like conspiracies? look there and find out why now and who stands to gain.
also noticed the mask slipped on a number of familiar names, which is interesting in and of itself.
the “it’s the principle of the thing” crowd should take those principles and start supporting ICE and DOJ in all efforts to find and rescue the victims of illegal alien sex traffickers and muslim grooming gangs operating here NOW.
or are they ok with letting THOSE victims wait while they get an “epstein list”?
did anybody else see the comment that Butler was staged, totally fake?
there’s your rage farming right there.

it’s Batman -The Dark Knight.
and on the anniversary of Butler, no less.
Agree. I’m thinking that there are several trolls, maybe more, who are trying hard to keep the fires raging. Focus on the border, supporting ICE, and getting elections secured. Enough of Epstein.
Yup, prevent the next 10 million illegals from entering, preventing the next war, defending the administration’s policy in court, etc. or release a list with a bunch of people in which nothing will happen to and we already know are compromised?
🤷♂️
You have to agree that’s it’s fascinating watching the provocateurs zoom. I’m always amazed at how little it takes for them to show up all over the threads.
It is a truism that people will always “find” what they look for.
Believe in UFOs? They will see UFOs everywhere.
Believe in massive CIA involvement in every aspect of life? They will see CIA agents under every rock in their garden.
It doesnt mean conspiracies don’t exist. But in my opinion, it’s 10% reality and 90% people projecting their fears onto the world they see around them.
Reality is boring. It doesnt get the blood boiling and raging the way a good hyperbolic temper tantrum does.
GREAT comment, so very true!!
but don’t forget the folks that are ASSIGNED to develop and disseminate conspiracy theories for mass consumption….

Food for thought….🤔
In 2023 a high end prostitution ring
was busted in Virginia (outside DC)
and Boston. Up to 600.00 dollar an hour.😳
In both States the “payor” = criminal charges.
The clientele according to different articles
were….elected officials,professors,lawyers,
tech and pharmaceutical executives and
military officers..
Yet, their names were not released. 🤷♀️
Charges, arrests or trials for them?
If a person has enough political clout,
money or power are they exempt from
the laws that the rest of us have to follow?
And/Or……how many people did the Deep State/CYA
and who knows whatever entity… get the “goods” on
from that bust? 🤔🤔

Sad to say but the guess I would make is it depends how much that person(s) will hurt the framework of the nation(s).
its sick but part of legal process.
the victims know money can help them forever, and they get to stay anonymous and Epstein gets killed in a cell.
they somehow feel good about it. most people would
You and your partner Outhouse Credibility are like the Rhino in “The Gods Must Be Crazy” that ran out of the bushes to stomp out any outsiders fire, every time someone, no matter who it is vents their frustration over President Trump’s departure from character. It’s pretty obvious

Didn’t realize that this was a therapy group for spreading non-facts and directionless venting.

No, but when I post an article about
a prostitution ring bust between
DC and Langley that took place in 2023.
And someone comments about Epstein who
died in 2019,victims and money…🤪
It is definitely Not Jinxy who has a problem
when he comments on it.
And then you make a snark comment to
Jinxy?
Seems like there will be some time-out for
some people to get together to discuss new
talking points. 😁
Jinxy….
Totally agree!!👏👏
I am trying my best to jumpstart
some brain cells.👩🏫👩🏫
I link a pretty recent case about Han Lee,
James Lee and Junmyung Lee running a
prostitution ring outside of DC and Boston.
Obvious from documents they catered mostly
to the “elites “. Not too many regular 9-5 ers
going to shell out that kind of money.
The prostitution ring was not some street corner
pimp operation. People had to fill out paperwork
to “qualify “ as one of the clientele. Appears to me
to have targeted a certain demographic.
Now, the question is….did the Lee organization
work-for a Foreign Government?
Were/are secrets given out, are there people in high
positions who could not only be compromised by
a Foreign Government but also the deep state?
And for the most part…..all I get is….nothing to see
here.🙃🤪🙃
President Trump has not departed from character. If you’re going to pick and choose what issues to stand behind President Trump and not to on others, than you are in essence … a RINO.
You seem to know all about what they are, but what are you?
You seem to be highly disraught by this situation; understandable; however, you appear to be allowing it to gain control of your thinking to far too high a degree. Perspective may be in order, along with a nice steak and cheese sandwich.
Jinxy is long time commenter here at
the Treehouse.
And you are…..?
So what? That doesn’t make his ravings any more credible.
Has he/she been here a year? Certainly not 2 years unless they’ve changed their name. Length of time here is immaterial. Some people never learn and some people are sharp right out of the gate.
Myself.
And I don’t care if he’s a long time commenter or not, nor who you are either.
It was an observation, nothing personal. And maybe if it causes this much angst, it’s time to take a step back…it isn’t like any one of us has any power over what happens or doesn’t. It isn’t worth the emotional turmoil or being uncivil.
We will probably never know if
the guys running the prostitution ring
Han Lee, James Lee or Junmyung Lee
were working for a Foreign Country.
And if so …if some of the “clientele” are
still compromised,gave away secrets….
to a Foreign Country……..
🤷♀️ 🤷♀️
Did I even mention Epstein?

Good grief🤪

My feeling about the Epstein drama is that it is exactly how it appears.
Epstein recruited and trafficked young girls and perhaps boys to seduce older powerful individuals into compromising relationships. The targets were told that the girls (or boys) were of legal age; therefore no laws were broken (this may or may not have been true). The events were video taped for leverage.
The problem is Epstein did this as an asset of the CIA. Epstein was paid by the CIA, the money to recruit and traffic the girls (or boys) came from the CIA making this a relatively clear entrapment scheme perpetrated by our own government. Therefore the powerful individuals caught on video were also victims of a crime. A crime committed by our own government. So no names can be released as they are all victims of criminal activity. The current administration is caught– releasing names will create legal exposure resulting in very expensive lawsuits– and lawsuits that the current administration has a suspicion that it will likely lose. So, to protect the victims no names will be released.
The situation is messy– Entrapment may or may not be applicable but the current DOJ does not want to end up in a court trying to argue why paying an asset (Epstein) and paying and trafficking possibly underage girls (or boys) to allure powerful individuals into compromising situation is legal. No, it is better if this just goes away.
Some people sense an analogous, years prior catch 22 setup
with the government billion$ going to ukr ( and the lack of accountability i.e. whom i$ grifting what, for what
and how long
and what taxpayer benefit, if any?
Similar entrapment skill set,
different activity and venues.
Not good
That being said,
there are many other bad things losing traction,
and
many, many other good things ( via policy changes etc. ) gaining traction.
Imho
Agreed.
“realDonaldTrump
please understand the EPSTEIN AFFAIR is not going away.
If the administration doesn’t address the massive number of unanswered questions about Epstein, especially the ABUSE OF CHILDREN BY ELITES (it is very clear that abuse occurred), then moving forward on so many other monumental challenges our nation is facing becomes much harder.
TRUST was deeply violated by both
JoeBiden
and
BarackObama
that your administration MUST be above reproach.
And never forget:
“anyone who causes these little ones to stumble, it would be better to have a millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.”
We cannot allow pedophiles to get away. I don’t personally care who they are or what elite or powerful position they hold. They must be exposed and held accountable!!!”
https://x.com/GenFlynn/status/1944214943198286033
That and please quit getting led around by the nose by the Neocons on Russia. We are messing with a country that is handling problems we caused in their backyard. At the very least, there is no need to send our weapons paid for by our tax dollars to Ukraine. There is absolutely no will either in the US or Europe on the part of young men to fight a war for Ukraine that will be, in actuality, a war for BlackRock. Can’t believe the same man that had the guts to call out the Iraq mistake for what it was is letting himself get dragged into this by Lindsey Graham, Tom Cotton etc.
Why would anyone take legal advice from Gen. Flynn?
For the newly arrived “nothing is being done” harpies….
From AI (Perplexity):
“Law enforcement activity involving child exploitation trafficking in 2025 is significantly more intense and expansive compared to the same period in 2024, with larger-scale operations, more arrests, and more children rescued. This reflects both increased criminal exploitation and a stronger, more coordinated response by U.S. and international agencies.
Here is an exhaustive list of all publicly acknowledged major busts of child trafficking, pedophile, and child exploitation rings in 2025 based on the latest verified reports:
1. Operation Global Chain (June 1–6, 2025) – International Human Trafficking Crackdown
Led by Austria and Romania with INTERPOL, Europol, and Frontex coordination.Resulted in 1,194 potential victims detected (including children exploited in forced begging and criminality) and 158 arrests across 43 countries.Included busts such as:Brazilian ring trafficking victims to Myanmar for sexual exploitation.Italian massage parlour raids with 75 potential trafficking victims rescued.Romanian family-based crime group dismantled using the “lover-boy” method, with 7 arrests and 8 women safeguarded.Ukrainian operation exposing recruitment and transport of women to Germany for sexual exploitation.Opened 182 new investigations including 15 transnational cases.Seizures included cash, narcotics, firearms, explosives, fraudulent documents, and real estate..
2. International Operation Targeting Child Sexual Abuse Material (March–May 2025)
Led by Spanish National Police with INTERPOL and Europol support.20 arrests across 12 countries in the Americas and Europe.Suspects included a healthcare worker and a teacher in Spain accused of paying minors for explicit images and sharing abuse material.Arrests also made in Latin America (10 suspects in 7 countries including El Salvador and Panama).68 additional suspects identified; investigations ongoing globally.Seizures of computers, phones, and digital storage devices..
3. FBI Operation Restore Justice (April 2025) – Nationwide U.S. Crackdown

4. Multiagency Operation Targeting Sex Trafficking of Minors in Houston (Aug–Sept 2024, reported May 2025)
Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Houston, FBI Houston, and local police coordinated.10 human traffickers arrested, including documented gang members and associates.Charges: sex trafficking of minors, sex trafficking by force, and conspiracy.Focused on “Bissonnet Track” area known for minor sex trafficking..
5. Global Crackdown on Kidflix Platform (April 2025)
Europol-led international operation shut down “Kidflix,” a major pedophile platform with nearly 2 million users.Platform hosted over 91,000 videos of child sexual abuse.Nearly 1,400 users identified; raids conducted in 31 countries.Coordinated by Bavarian State Criminal Police and Europol..
6. Leaders of “764” Violent Global Child Exploitation Network Arrested (April 2025)
U.S. Department of Justice announced arrests and charges against leaders of “764,” a violent online network exploiting vulnerable populations including children.The network operated both in the U.S. and internationally, engaging in widespread child exploitation..
.
Q: How does this law enforcement activity compare to the same time period in 2024?
A: Law enforcement activity involving child exploitation trafficking in 2025 is significantly more intense and expansive compared to the same period in 2024, with larger-scale operations, more arrests, and more children rescued. This reflects both increased criminal exploitation and a stronger, more coordinated response by U.S. and international agencies.

That is grossly wrong.

Lindsey on meet the press today,
“The game regarding Putin’s invasion of Russia is about to change. I expect in the coming days you will weapons flowing at a record level to help Ukraine defend themselves. I expect in the coming days that there will be tariffs and sanctions available to President Trump he’s never had before.”
WTF is going on. First the Epstein nonsense, the full throated endorsement of Lindsey’s election, and now record levels of weapons to Ukraine.
These items feel more like the old administration, not winning.
The Epstein fiasco is not what will hurt MAGA.Sending more weapons to Ukraine and promoting the amnesty of illegal farm and hospitality workers will..Anytime I see Lindsey Graham gleeful I know we are in trouble. I can see it now.Graham and President Trump together in his primary ads fighting the good war against Putin.Last time around he used his defense of Kavanaugh to tie himself to the President.This time it will be Ukraune.Up until Trump endorsed him I thought we had a good chance of getting rid of Graham.But with that endorsement andoue failure to end the open primary we will be stuck with this RUNI foe another 6 years.My fear however runs deeper than Miss Lindsey.Should the GOP craft any kind of amnesty legislation and we continue to arm Ukraine,I believe we will lose control of Congress.
Congress is going to be lost with a lot less than you are speaking of.

Trump Gets Ratioed for the First Time After Weighing in on Bondi, Bongino Clash Over Handling of Epstein Documents
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/07/woah-trump-gets-ratioed-first-time-after-weighing/
ANTIFA is being defeated in the streets, so they have taken to the comments pages
Exactly. They’re all in on the “nothing to see here, move along” song!!
Metaphorically speaking, if federal prosecutors have a single shot rifle and two targets, they have to decide which target to put in their sites before pulling the trigger!
The two targets are, Epstein Files or Crossfire Hurricane…and it’s looking like the DOJ has decided where to aim their prosecutorial bullet!
John Solomon just announced to Steve Bannon that the DOJ is 7-10 days away from bringing massive conspiracy charges against all the bad actors who planned and executed 2016’s fraudulent Crossfire Hurricane case against Trump and his inner circle!
Just as importantly, Soloman says that by Pam Bondi appointing a Special Prosecutor and including the FBI’s Mar a Lago raid in the charges, the venue can be in Florida, not D.C. where no jury would vote to convict any Democrat, no matter how heinous the crime!
Solomon sums up by saying MAGA supporters are going to be elated when they see who’s being charged and adds, “I sure wouldn’t want to be Brennen or Comey or Clapper right now.”
Bummer
zero on 2020 Election fraud
Jim Clyburn and co. and the rest
that should be number 1
this smells of a few scapegoats getting wrist slaps
sigh
John Solomons tract record is no bueno…
Tick Tock Solomon
It will depend on the charges. If it approaches the big T treason, then I’m in. If it’s ticky tack perjury or falsified documents kind of stuff, then I have doubts.
Doubts?
Fear , uncertainty , doubts
Fud –
Referring back to the original post, I have doubts only insofar as how ecstatic I will be. 😉 I have no doubts whatsoever about President Trump’s abilities to handle any of this.

Lotta noise for playing kick ball?

Cole Palmer accepting the Golden Ball… from Donald Trump?! 👀
US President Donald Trump has claimed that the controversial “Epstein Files,” including the discussion around a potential Jeffrey Epstein “client list,” were fabricated by political opponents, including Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, James Comey, and John Brennan. In a post on Truth Social, Trump accused these individuals of creating the Epstein Files similarly to how he claims the Steele dossier was manufactured to discredit him during his 2016 campaign.
Trump likened the Epstein memo to other investigations he has previously dismissed as hoaxes, such as the Steele dossier and the Russia probe, and questioned why attention is being given to documents he claims were authored by his political adversaries. He further suggested that these files were part of a broader effort by the Democratic Party to undermine his administration and the MAGA movement.
Perhaps someone should ask ‘who’ was behind MeToo movement? 🤔

Unfortunately, TPTB that are behind everything that people want transparency on, those powers will have to be eliminated first, before any light will be shed upon anything.
Not vice versa.
July 13 2024 – 6:11pm But for a Miracle … we would have lost our lion. Kamala and Tampon Tim would be completing the final destruction of our country.
.

No Anniversary Thread? Gratitude Thread?
— I was hoping for an acknolwedgement, maybe a gratitude thread.
.
.
Our country was saved in that moment at 6:11pm on July 13 2025 when many believe God’s hand turned President Trumps head at the last instant.
I am filled with gratitude and awe at the courage and perseverance of our President. He’s suffered greatly under endless torment by lawfare that tried to put him in jail for life and by the media that endlessly smears him and lies about him and does not report his wins. He gets up every day and puts a week’s effort into every 24 hours on our behalf, to save America.
He knows the risk of assassination is ever present. Image living with the reality of that. Iran put a $20 million bounty on his head. The media endlessly stokes hatred against him to gin up bad actors. Yet in the face of potential death, he continues to work at warp speed every day stacking up win after win after win after win.
A different outcome one year ago today and we would be 6 months into the Kamala administration.
Thank you President Trump for persevering against 360 degree assaults that never end. Thank you for keeping on keeping on.
Hoping that its a travel day for SD (no articles on Sunday as of now) and hoping for his safe return.
I will join you, Sunrei, in thanking our President Trump for persevering against 360 degree assaults that never end. 24/7, they never end.
Thank you President Trump for keeping on keeping on.
I’ve been on CTH for over a decade. When I discovered this haven and the Brilliant writings of Sundance and contributions in comments section by followers were unparalleled to other blogs.
Since the transition to the new platform many of those sage voices are gone and replaced with low level non intelligent trolls who revive the same spam like topics to promote disruption and non civilized behavior.
Ad REM please clean house and eliminate the usual suspects so that we can get on with the discussions we can enjoy and work together on.
Thank you
S o what is needed is a mass elimination of those deemed undesirables ???
Once was going to shoot a man for trying to get my dog to jump the fence so he could shoot her. Why? Cause that dog was always loyal to me and a friend. We all admire President Trump’s heart and his loyalty to friends, workers, supporters. He deserves no less from us.
Somewhere someone said “Sunlight is the best disinfectant”.
Here is a little more sunlight:

Larry Schweikart has been keeping a list of crimes against children and child trafficking arrests on his substack.
Others are also making lists of law enforcement task forces and their arrests – sometimes of hundreds of perps.
Here’s an example:
Sundance, would you please have a special section for Epstein comments. I realize people are wanting let off steam but it is crowding everything else out.
I am so disappointed that the only thing I have read about in the past few days is about the Epstein list or Bondi. So much dissatisfaction and anxiety.
There is so much else going on in the world or the country and this is my “Last Refuge” for real news and your great insight. The great Treepers have always been great newshounds and I love them all. Except the trolls of course.
Thank you SD.
The reaction to what President Trump says about Putin tomorrow may drown Epstein-Epstein-Epstein out in the comments.
At least for a while anyway.
I was thinking the exact same thing. I am so glad you brought this up. The trolls have been getting in the way of real news.
Democrats have doctored it?
You must be kidding.
Who could believe Democrats could ever be so dishonest?
THIS I’m willing to accept.
I wish he had led with this.
Doesn’t mean I don’t support him but this was an unforced error.
Old stolen valor and the war pig sissy
That they are together on the subject tells one all they need to know 😉
Meanwhile, one of many of the things lost in the shuffle…
Federal regulators have approved a COVID-19 vaccine made by Moderna for some children aged 6 months through 11 years, according to an approval letter made public on July 10.
The Food and Drug Administration approved Spikevax, the vaccine, for children at least 6 months of age who are pegged as being at heightened risk for COVID-19, the FDA’s top vaccine official, Dr. Vinay Prasad, told Moderna in the missive.
“COVID-19 continues to pose a significant potential threat to children, especially those with underlying medical conditions,” Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel said in a statement.
“Vaccination can be an important tool for protecting our youngest against severe disease and hospitalization. We appreciate the FDA’s diligent scientific review and approval of Spikevax for pediatric populations at increased risk for COVID-19 disease.”
The FDA did not respond to a request for comment.
The approval for the vaccine also covers other individuals through 64 years of age who have at least one risk factor that federal officials say places them at higher risk of severe COVID-19 outcomes, as well as all people aged at least 65.
The updated vaccine could target L.P.8.1., based on guidance from the FDA. Moderna says it expects to have the updated vaccine ready to distribute in the fall.
The FDA in 2024 granted emergency authorization for Spikevax for all children aged 6 months through 11 years. The FDA had also approved Spikevax for individuals aged at least 12 years.
Those moves came despite no clinical data being available for the vaccines.

Another important battle – one that the administration has filed papers against…
A federal judge on Thursday has barred the Trump administration from enforcing the president’s executive order limiting birthright citizenship, coming weeks after the Supreme Court restricted the capacity of judges to issue nationwide injunctions.
U.S. District Judge Joseph LaPlante announced his decision after an hour-long hearing and said a written order will follow. The order will include a seven-day stay to allow for appeal, he said.
