...The Wall Street Journal wrote the hit piece against DNI Tulsi Gabbard, sourced to two “people familiar with the matter,” and “three other people with knowledge of the situation.” They all needed to coordinate with the WSJ. Think about it. The substance of the story is that among the 37 current and former Intelligence Community officials Tulsi Gabbard recently stripped of their security clearances, was an “undercover CIA agent” located within one of those agencies..

It is possible for two things to be true at the same time: Trump was absolutely unfairly targeted, and Trump’s targets are now being fairly targeted for evidence of real, actual crimes. Both the New York Times and the Washington Post were out with Editorial Board editorials Friday night lamenting the raid on John Bolton’s home and office and they both read like they came from the same talking points. Both the Times and the Post frame it the same way: the investigations into Bolton, Letitia James, Adam Schiff, etc., are “weightless,” clearly just “revenge” on the part of Trump,...

Former Paramount executive Shari Redstone was concerned President Donald Trump's team would seize on unaired footage of a 2023 "60 Minutes" interview with then-President Joe Biden, as she explained why the company settled Trump's lawsuit against CBS News. Redstone claimed in an interview with the New York Times that some CBS personnel told her in October 2023 that Biden appeared drowsy and had to be prompted to answer questions during an interview with Scott Pelley. Redstone said she and her son Tyler Korff were worried that CBS would be accused of editing the "60 Minutes" interview to conceal Biden's "failings,"...

An organ harvesting organization has faced allegations that it urged doctors to remove body parts from a comatose woman - who went on to make a full recovery after medics insisted she showed signs of life. Danella Gallegos said she feels lucky to be alive after her organs were almost taken by 'pushy' donor bosses when she fell into a coma in 2022. Gallegos, who was 38 at the time, was homeless when she suffered an unspecified medical emergency, and doctors at Presbyterian Hospital in Albuquerque, New Mexico told her family she would never recover. Without any hope, her family...

President Trump has dropped his demand that Rupert Murdoch immediately testify in the president’s libel lawsuit over a Jeffrey Epstein story in the Wall Street Journal, but the 94-year-old media mogul has agreed to provide his health information.Trump initially demanded Murdoch sit for a deposition within 15 days to answer questions about the Epstein story, citing Murdoch’s advanced age and various health complications.But the warring sides reached a truce, agreeing that Murdoch instead would provide “a sworn declaration describing his current health condition,” according to a joint stipulation filed in U.S. District Court in Miami late Monday. “Defendant Murdoch has...

Take note Politico.EPSTEIN! EPSTEIN! EPSTEIN! It has been used so much that it is no longer effective according to Ed Kilgore of New York magazine. Much as Kilgore would like to see President Donald Trump's popularity decline due to the media constantly trying to connect him with Jeffrey Epstein, it is just not working. Kilgore pretty much threw the towel into the ring on Thursday in "Why Trump’s Epstein Files Scandal May Not Be Hurting Him After All."

democrats have no message for America. None. Donald Trump has them careening about trying to find something to stand for. Their Russiagate hoax has collapsed and the cretins of the intelligence community (Brennan, Clapper, Comey and assorted scum and villainy) are in jeopardy of going down with it. So, democrats changed course- to defending illegal alien criminals over Americans. Americans aren't liking that either, so they've turned to a Hail Mary play- demanding that Trump release the Epstein files. Guilt by association. It's a Machiavellian ploy. They know whatever remains can't be released without a court order. Former Epstein lawyer...

Attorney General Pam Bondi informed President Trump in the spring that his name appeared in the Jeffrey Epstein files, according to three people with knowledge of the exchange. The disclosure came as part of a broader briefing on the re-examination of the case against Mr. Epstein, who died in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges, by F.B.I. agents and prosecutors. It was made by Ms. Bondi during a meeting that also included the deputy attorney general, Todd Blanche, and covered a variety of topics. Ms. Bondi frequently meets with Mr. Trump to brief him on various matters, officials...

Epstein! Epstein! Epstein!Please keep your minds focused on Jeffrey Epstein and his connection to President Donald Trump! No other story should be allowed to divert your attention away from Epstein and Trump.That definitely seems to be the attitude with Politico which is now treating the unfolding of the shocking details of Team Obama and their role in basically staging a coup against incoming President Donald Trump in December 2016 as really nothing more than an annoying diversion away from EPSTEIN! That is the basic theme of Tuesday's article by Politico's White House correspondent Eli Stokols, "Deflecting Epstein questions, Trump urges...

It’s the fixation of Washington. Now Democrats from coast to coast are plotting how to capitalize on the Jeffrey Epstein saga. An ongoing furor around the government’s investigation of the disgraced financier has done more than fracture President Donald Trump’s base. It has also injected a volatile new element into midterm elections and created an opening for Democrats scrambling to exploit any perceived Republican weakness as they work to retake the House. Once largely confined to the Beltway and to the more conspiratorial corners of the internet, the Epstein affair has already shown surprising staying power by tapping into pervasive...

Letting the Left divide MAGA with an Epstein info op may doom America. .. The Trump administration has a limited legislative window to get anything done. Democrats have seized on the Epstein issue to sideline legislation and some House Republican leaders appear to be going along with it instead of staying laser-focused on passing as much of the president’s agenda as possible. The Dems know a golden opportunity when they see one and everyone insisting on Epstein answers that are never going to come (certainly not out of Congress, of all places) are squandering a very narrow window for getting...

The Wall Street Journal is facing renewed scrutiny after publishing a story falsely linking President Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein through a letter the paper claimed was “lewd” and allegedly sent for Epstein’s 50th birthday. ... The report has been widely denounced as part of a continued pattern of politically motivated attacks, with deeper ties now surfacing between the authors of the story and the figures behind the discredited Russia collusion narrative.. ...

Noted attorney Alan Dershowitz said Sunday he could be called as a witness in President Donald Trump’s suit against The Wall Street Journal, arguing that he could help “prove malice” in the case. Trump announced he’d filed suit against the WSJ and its owner, Rupert Murdoch, Friday over an article that claimed he sent disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein a bawdy letter celebrating his birthday. Dershowitz told “Sunday Agenda” host Lidia Curanaj he also was contacted by the WSJ over a letter he reportedly sent, which the outlet couldn’t produce. “I’ll probably be called as a witness in the case, because...

If you listened to the rest of the media — both mainstream and social media — you would think Donald Trump was on the skids, that MAGA was at last turning on the president over the so-called Epstein Files. But nothing could be further from the truth, according to polling the president crowed about over the weekend and, also, according to history. Every single time his enemies count him out, Trump roars back with a vengeance. The latest effort last week to try to smear him as a sexual deviant and damage his marriage by tying him to child sex...

Leading Democrat Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., says President Donald Trump should release the Epstein files, but is silent on why former President Joe Biden did not anytime in his four years in the Oval Office. Democrats have seized on the issue since the case became a political controversy for the Trump administration. However, despite their current calls for transparency on the case, the Biden Justice Department also failed to release additional documents on Epstein. Asked by Fox News Digital whether she thought the Trump administration should release the Epstein files, former House Speaker Pelosi responded, "Absolutely." Fox News Digital then...

The three biggest stories this week expose judicial hijinks, the willingness of the Wall Street Journal to publish defamatory anti-Trump nonsense in violation of all journalism ethics, and Tulsi Gabbard’s public declassification of material showing how President Obama worked from the moment of Trump’s 2016 election victory on to tar and hamstring him with made-up Russian influence lies. Judicial MalfeasanceAs usual, the most significant coverage of lefty judiciary hijinks is by Margot Cleveland. She uncovered a memo of a judicial conference in which the notorious D.C. judge James Boasberg confirmed to Chief Justice John Roberts the anti-Trump bias of that...

🚨NEW: CNN's Michael Smerconish *CASTS DOUBT* on WSJ Trump-Epstein letter🚨 "It's hard to believe that the president would have written the imaginary conversation between himself and Epstein 22 years ago. I mean, listen to some of the back and forth." "That doesn't sound like something Donald Trump would write." @DailyCaller
