Thanks for being here. Let’s jump in.

CHARLOTTE PROTESTS

An emergency protest erupted in Charlotte, NC on Saturday, following the arrival and heavy presence of Trump’s Border Patrol agents in the area. Hundreds of furious folks gathered to march, while holding signs and chanting “No hate, no fear, immigrants are welcome here.” More protests are scheduled for today.

INDIANA SAYS NO

Republicans in Indiana delivered a major blow to Trump’s attempt to cheat in the 2026 election. Indiana Senate President Rod Bray says there will not be a meeting to gerrymander the state’s Congressional map, as it won’t have the votes to pass.

Dem Rep. André Carson applauded the victory, stating: “Hoosiers do things differently. We’re about collaboration, not division … independent thinking—not taking orders from Washington. I want to thank … the Republican and Democratic members of the Indiana Statehouse who held firm … This is a win for all of us.”

REPEALING GOP SHUTDOWN SCHEME

In the bogus bill to reopen the government, Republicans slid in a provision allowing Senators to sue for potentially millions if their phone records were seized without notification. All stemming from the probe into Trump’s scheme to steal the 2020 election. Now, following massive public outrage, there will be a vote to repeal it.

I just want to remind everyone that all of the GOP Senators were rightfully being investigated. What Jack Smith did was legal, and Trump’s Republican accomplices are just trying to steal more of our tax dollars. It’s pure corruption, beyond the pale.

TRUMP CAUGHT OFF GUARD

Trump’s throwing around a lot of allegations about others potentially named in the Epstein files, and at least one person is pushing back. Co-founder of LinkedIn, Reid Hoffman, caught Trump completely off guard when stating: “I want this complete [Epstein files] release because it will bring justice for the victims.”

And on Friday, while on Air Force One, Trump had a complete meltdown when confronted about the newest Epstein revelations.

“What did Jeffrey Epstein mean when he said you knew about the girls?” one reporter asked. Trump rambled on, trying to deflect to Bill Clinton and others, when another reporter suggested: “If there is nothing incriminating in the files, why not,” before Trump snapped, and said “Quiet, quiet!” It’s clear he can feel the walls are closing in.

MURPHY GOES THERE

In an interview on Friday, Dem Sen. Chris Murphy confirmed what many of us are thinking, saying Trump’s Epstein cover-up is “clearly the biggest scandal in presidential history. He wouldn’t be acting this way if he wasn’t so deeply worried about what sits in those files. What we’ve already seen is immensely incriminating.”

And then Murphy went there: “Clearly Donald Trump was at the center … the scandal in and of itself could bring him down.”

Murphy is right—this could and should bring Trump down. We must keep pushing until the Epstein files are released, and the abusers are brought to justice. I’ve been investigating this scandal for a decade, and I’m not stopping now.

But we need all hands on deck to help us maximize the pressure on all fronts. So please support our independent journalism and tenacious activism by becoming a paid subscriber today:
