Simply release the Epstein files ALL OF THEM, not ones curated with rumors and opinions. Just the facts man. Appoint a commission, it is how everyone else hides the stuff.

Trump is a really big guy. It’s a standout feature.

He’s got a recognizable voice.

No Epstein female (or an attorney of one) is alleging wrongdoing by Trump.

President Trump this morning recommended that Republicans vote to release all the files, so it looks like this issue is moot and that he’ll now definitively clear his name.

For Deep State, anyway.

But we all know how low their standards are for the front office appearance types.

Maybe Massie would care to answer this question...

What did Congress know about Epstein and when did it know it...

H. R. 5704

To repeal the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act of 2013 and to prohibit domestic propagandization by the Federal Government.

https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/5704/text?s=1&r=4

The U.S. Information and Educational Exchange Act of 1948 (Public Law 80-402), popularly called the Smith–Mundt Act, was first introduced by Congressman Karl E. Mundt (R-SD) in January 1945 in the 79th Congress. It was subsequently passed by the 80th Congress and signed into law by President Harry S. Truman on January 27, 1948.

The Act was developed to regulate broadcasting of programs for foreign audiences produced under the guidance of the State Department, and it prohibited domestic dissemination of materials produced by such programs as one of its provisions. The original version of the Act was amended by the Smith–Mundt Modernization Act of 2012 under Barack Obama which allowed for materials produced by the State Department and the Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG) to be made available within the United States.

H. R. 5302

To prohibit United States funds from being provided to foreign governments or organizations that subsidize or promote abortion, to codify the Mexico City Policy, and for other purposes.

https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/5302/text?s=1&r=5

WIKI

The Mexico City policy, sometimes referred to by its critics as the global gag rule, is a United States government policy blocking U.S. federal funding for non-governmental organizations (NGOs) providing abortion counseling or referrals, advocating to decriminalize abortion, or expanding abortion services. When in effect, the Mexico City policy is a U.S. government policy that requires foreign non-governmental organizations to certify that they will not “perform or actively promote abortion as a method of family planning” with non-U.S. funds as a condition for receiving U.S. global family planning assistance, and during its January 23, 2017 implementation any other U.S. global health assistance, including U.S. global HIV (under PEPFAR) and maternal and child health (MCH) assistance.

The Mexico City policy was first implemented on January 20, 1985, by the second Reagan administration. Since that time, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has enforced the policy during all subsequent Republican administrations and has rescinded the policy at the direction of all Democratic administrations. After its initial implementation by Republican President Ronald Reagan in 1985, the policy was rescinded in 1993 by Democratic President Bill Clinton, reinstated in 2001 by Republican President George W. Bush, rescinded in 2009 by Democratic President Barack Obama, reinstated in 2017 by Republican President Donald Trump, rescinded in 2021 by Democratic President Joe Biden, and reinstated in 2025 by Trump again.

H.R.4700 — 119th Congress (2025-2026)

Introduced in House (07/23/2025)

Processing Revival and Intrastate Meat Exemption Act or the PRIME Act

This bill exempts from federal inspection requirements animals and meats that are slaughtered and prepared at custom animal slaughter facilities for distribution within the state. Under current law, a custom slaughter exemption applies if the meat is slaughtered exclusively for personal, household, guest, or employee uses.

Specifically, the bill expands the federal inspection exemption to include the slaughter of animals or the preparation of carcasses, meat, and meat food products that are

slaughtered and prepared at a custom slaughter facility in accordance with the laws of the state where the facility is located; and
prepared exclusively for distribution to household consumers in the state or restaurants, hotels, boarding houses, grocery stores, or other establishments in the state that either prepare meals served directly to consumers or offer meat and food products for sale directly to consumers in the state.
The bill does not preempt any state law concerning (1) the slaughter of animals or the preparation of carcasses, meat, and meat food products at a custom slaughter facility; or (2) the sale of meat or meat food products.

No. This guy is finished. Mr. “I’ll vote for a Rutabaga Continuing Resolution any time, but not one under Trump.” What a hideous person.

Loyalty to Al Qaeda is the hallmark of Senator Lindsey Graham in regards to Syria.

I would consider Senator Graham to be more disloyal and or a ‘traitor’ than MTG.

MTG has rightly called out the wrongness of Al Qaeda “head chopper” Ahmed al-Sharaa’s visit to the White House last Monday.
