Trump’s Epstein Cover-Up Just Cracked. A Court Killed His Voter-Data Grab. And Voters Kept Firing The Sellouts.
November is coming
For a year, the regime’s whole plan has been to wear you down—bury you in bad news until you stop reading, stop calling, stop believing your voice counts. This morning, I have proof it’s failing. And you can help people hear about it.

We have no ads, no corporate owner, and no one who can make us bow to Trump—just independent journalism and unmatched resistance organizing, all paid for by readers like you. So if you’ve been reading for free, today’s a great day to join, and to help us flip Congress:
THE REVOLT IS GROWING
Across America, the resistance to the unchecked spread of massive data centers continues to grow.
Residents in San Marcos, Texas, made it the first city in the state to ban data centers outright—every neighborhood, every zoning district. Councilman Lorenzo Gonzalez flipped his vote after constituents told him plainly: not our water, not our future. Days later, Hays County voted to pause new tax deals and approvals to guard its aquifer.
This week in Oregon, the state’s largest teachers union joined a lawsuit to block 17 data centers and overturn $84 million in tax breaks quietly handed to tech giants like NVIDIA and CoreWeave.
Folks in Festus, Missouri, fired four city council members who backed a $6 billion data center.
In deep-red Utah, Senate President Stuart Adams lost his primary after courting a data center near the Great Salt Lake. He’s the first sitting Senate president to fall in a primary in modern Utah history. And two county commissioners who tried to wave it through lost their seats as well.
Red towns, blue towns—same verdict: No.
THEY’RE BETTING YOU’LL GET USED TO IT
This week Sen. Chris Murphy did the one thing the regime is betting nobody will: he added it all up.
Five hundred days, more than twenty separate schemes. No-bid contracts for his friends. Federal money directed to companies his own grown children invest in. Stock Trump bought just days before handing those same companies government contracts.
And that, Murphy told the Senate, was only half of what’s on the record. The regime’s bet is simple, he said: pile the scandals on fast enough until it all blurs into “the pitter patter of rain.” Two days later, JD Vance went to the Nixon Library and said Watergate today would be “a 12-hour news story”—and called it “crazy” it once brought down a president. He meant it as a brag.
The favors, the contracts, the family cashing in—it’s not a few bad choices, it’s exactly what the regime intended. They’re betting we’ll quit keeping score and throw up our hands. Chris Murphy refuses to let that happen. And so do I. The regime will never prosecute its own corruption—so we have to end it ourselves. That’s what November is for.
TRUMP CAME FOR MICHIGAN’S VOTERS AND LOST
The regime just got told no—in the loudest way yet. For a year, the DOJ has sued state after state to get your private voter data, and lost every time. This week made it ten straight, with the first federal appeals court to weigh in siding against them.
And the way they lost makes it sweeter. The regime took a 1960 voting-rights law and tried to turn it into a tool for hunting voters down. Judge Andre Mathis wasn’t fooled, ruling they’d flipped its purpose “to ensure that some people have not voted.” The lone judge on Trump’s side was the one he’d appointed himself.
Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel didn’t flinch, calling the demand “a transparent attempt to intimidate and spread fear among voters” and vowing her office “will not be bullied.” Neither will the rest of us.
JUDGE PUSHES FOR MORE EPSTEIN FILES
Katie Phang is a hero—an attorney and independent journalist—who refused to let the Epstein files quietly disappear. When the DOJ swore it had released everything, she knew better—and sued. This week, a federal judge proved her right.
Trump signed the Epstein Files Transparency Act into law himself. Its demand was simple: release the files. Instead, Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche—Trump’s former personal lawyer—claimed the job was done while names stayed blacked out and records stayed buried.
Judge Emmet Sullivan didn’t mince words: Blanche, he wrote, “conceded that he is in violation of the Act.” Sullivan gave the DOJ until July 2 to uncover the names in at least eight Epstein emails, hand over buried FBI notes, and publish the redaction list the law required—or explain in court why it hid them.
This isn’t the whole truth pried loose—not yet. But this week, one reporter forced Trump’s own acting Attorney General to answer for what he buried. The wall is starting to crack.
ONWARD
Thank you for reading today. It means more than you know. I’ve spent over ten years chasing the Epstein story—back when nobody would touch it, when it wasn’t safe. And there’s no way I’m stopping now.
What keeps me going is knowing that every morning, people like you open this newsletter and stay in the fight with me. You read, you share, you contact your members of Congress. You push back when someone else says it’s hopeless. That’s not nothing. That’s everything.
I started this work in 2016 because I believed that if enough people had the truth, they’d do something with it. Ten years later, I still believe that—and every single day I’m being proven right. The only way I can keep doing any of this is by remaining completely independent of corporations and billionaires who would tell me how to cover Trump.
That independence lives because of readers like you. If you haven’t yet, I’d be honored to have you as a paid subscriber. This community is the best thing I’ve ever been a part of—I mean that. Help us keep it going:

Is this the crack that finally breaks the Epstein cover-up open? Tell me what you think.
Are there still any demonstrations happening near you these days? Tell me about them.
NEW: Oppose Blanche for AG: https://actionnetwork.org/letters/tell-your-senators-oppose-todd-blanche-for-attorney-general/
The folks in Festus, MO who fired 4 city councilmen for their actions on the datacenter have certainly shown us how it’s done!
At first glance I thought “Festus” was “Fetus” which I’m sure an analogy can be made.
