Senator Dick Durbin says Pam Bondi ordered Kash Patel to assign 1,000 FBI agents to comb through the vast troves of material the FBI has in its possession. This is a much larger trove of material, and it is not specific to accusations against Epstein and Maxwell. Senator Durbin said these 1,000 FBI agents were told to flag anything that might be problematic for Trump. Pam Bondi could release all of this information pretty quickly, without needing a judge, but she won't because Trump is terrified by what might be found.

Spot on. Trump is quaking and Blondi is covering with a fire blanket

I believe given what we know to be true that first, Epstein was likely murdered and now the power of the presidency is being used to save a perverted individual at a cost to all of us. This indicates Bondi and all the others are accessories to this entire coverup and should stand trial.

Even bringing her before Congress won’t work you know should will include Trump because she needs a pardon

Pardoning a convicted child molester and procurer of under-age victims is a way too-heavy a lift just to spare fecking Orange Horn Dog some embarrassment...that action itself would totally reignite the Epstein shite, and redound badly upon tRump and his DOJ.

A non-starter IMHO.

Exactly.....and that is what so many are missing about the possible Maxwell testimony ...

Though the Supremes have granted him the “get out of jail free” card, Trump is now realizing that he can still be tried in the court of public opinion. And the jury now includes some of his MAGA faithful.

For a decade we’ve heard how this abhorrent thing or that illegal thing Trump did will be the end of him. No confidence that this will be any different. His cult will do their usual mental gymnastics and let him off as they shift blame to Biden-Hillary-Obama-Pelosi-Garland-deepstate-democratpedophiles…..

You're most likely correct. But if most of the spreading manure suffocates some of the enablers it will still have some positive effect.

I definitely keep hoping. I am always scanning for hope these days.

It really is amazing how the NYT misses the lede and misses it again. The Washington Post has gone on permanent intellectual holiday. And the LA Times has been knee-capped. Now all who are curious and not addicted to FOX must rely on Substack.

AI Bots Supporting Cheeto’s Nazi Propaganda

Hitler’s propaganda minister, Hermann Goebels, would be proud of the high tech current Nazi propaganda machine supported by AI bots on Twitter(Musk’s X) as reported by MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow Hundreds of posts on Twitter are intended to show MAGA supporters the incredible job Cheeto’s cabinet members are doing

Bots are trained to say what MAGA supporters would say Now with the split in Cheeto world the bots are confused about the Epstein scandal and same bot supports Bondi and the next day wants to get rid of Bondi System error And social media like Facebook has become a cesspool of mis and disinformation

So check everything out with the apparent sources cited if it sounds unbelievable or not right snopes.com is another good way to verify information because this is going to get worse Now tell your friends, neighbors, relatives, family to be aware of the propaganda machine It started happening from St Petersburg in 2016 but now it's ramping up

Thanks for turning the spotlight on the right play away from the fake one. Anything he does is some kind of ploy essentially. His bubble group will love it.

ALOHA.... “Fear is the tool of a tyrant, wielded to suppress independent thought. Instead of fear, let this moment fuel the fire that already burns at the heart of this place. A fire of righteous indignation at abuses of power.”

Though it pains me to say it, I think past is prologue. Seeing the pitiful state of main stream media, I think the gambit by Trump and Blondi will work: "This is Trump’s gambit in a nutshell: pretend DOJ is declassifying the “good stuff,” knowing it isn’t; wait for judicial rejection; and reframe himself as the truth-teller blocked by the forces of darkness."

Vintage Blomdi: "The DOJ motion—which the Deputy Attorney General signed last week and which Bondi then championed on Fox News—promises the faithful that Trump is “demanding full transparency.” "

Aren't people sick of her by now? Truth is only rarely ever spoken.

Still, waiting to hear a valid reason why Ms. Comey was fired! Hoping rule 6 will hold, but we're still not letting go of this! Thanks Harry! ❤️

Release the #NothingBurger and hope that everyone forgets about it. #PedoPOTUS is about to find out that we are not all as senile as he is.

'not to provide any “pertinent” information'

I'll settle for impertinent information. Most of it in that case is of this kind anyway.

There is a belief that 9/11 occurred because the new Bush Administration - and John Ashcroft, the new attorney general - refocused the FBI and DOJ on issues including assisted suicide laws. Resources including expert FBI agents were retasked en masse to deal with things that took them off the anti-terrorist beat.

What horrible thing is going to happen because Bondi and Patel are firing and reassigning long-time expert investigators? What disaster is going to slip through and kill Americans?

Our legal system and law enforcement agencies were formed haphazardly but developed special departments to focus on real hazards. Now the Trump administration is disassembling these special teams to pursue ghosts and conspiracies.

It's time to speak out. We risk being blind to real threats as Donald Trump pursues his fantasies by weaponizing previously independent agencies.

Keep up the good work pointing at places where government is being distorted by the Trump "agenda."
