Dean, Lev & Zev, this is important! Why don't you have Rep Garcia on September 3 as well!! The Epstein foundation (or whatever it's called) is giving Rep Garcia on the Oversight Committee the birthday book & some other documents! THIS IS HUGE!

Regarding Trump illegally attempting to steal $4.9 billion in foreign aid through a "pocket rescission" maneuver, the New York Times article "Defying Congress, Trump Moves to Cut $4.9 Billion in Foreign Aid" can be found at this link:

https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/29/us/politics/trump-foreign-aid.html?nl=from-the-times&regi_id=288007245&segment_id=204891

"Courts have not weighed in explicitly on whether pocket rescissions are valid, and Mr. Vought at times has openly courted a legal showdown over the issue. Last year, he wrote that the Supreme Court 'has not yet had occasion to squarely confront' the substantive issues of the executive branch’s impoundment authority."

Have you heard of this guy?? Is this reality or???

On August 12th, 2025, Alnur Mussayev, the former head of Kazakhstan’s National Security Committee, alleged that Russian President Vladimir Putin possesses a comprehensive kompromat file on Donald J. Trump. He didn’t suggest it. He stated it. The file, he said, is extensive, meticulously documented, and designed not to destroy Trump—but to control him.

According to Mussayev, the kompromat includes financial records showing illicit transactions connected to accounts either owned by Trump or clearly affiliated with his name. It also contains statements from operatives who were directly involved in kompromat operations—individuals who could, if necessary, provide witness testimony confirming the authenticity and intent behind the material. Most damning of all, he claims, are the recordings: audio and video documentation of sexual crimes against minors and acts of violence against women.

Hi Jane, that's really interesting. Where did you hear that? I would be interested to read the full article (or watch the full video, as the case may be). Can you provide a link?

Three of my favorites together!

@Zev I’d love to hear from you about how the CIA would have allowed a Russian agent to get to the White House? How did our intelligence miss this (or did they??)

Ruth Ben- Ghiat has said 'There will be a reckoning.' I see the very beginnings of one. 600 Federal judges have signed a petition against Chief Justice Roberts, calling for his impeachment. It's on Substack . ACLU has filed a case for a rehearing by the en Banc DC Court of Appeals regarding the 3 judge panel's decision (2 trump judges, 1 Obama judge) to stay Judge Boasberg's contempt charge against Trump officials regarding sending those plane loads of immigrants to El Salvador. ACLU has asked for a whole court decision (en Banc) because they believe the 3 judge panel's decision UNDERMINES JUDICIAL AUTHORITY OVER THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH! Sept 3 is when some Epstein survivors appear with several Oversight Committee members on the House triangle. for interviews. Rep Garcia on OSC reports that Epstein organization has agreed to send them the whole Epstein birthday book, along with some other documents. National protests Sept 1 WORKERS OVER BILLIONAIRES! Union workers are leaving trump, along with Latino men & independents according to the latest Quinnipiac Poll. Trump's approval is in the toilet. He's violating the Posse Comitatus Act. Not saying it's great, bc DOGE has all our data in the cloud. I hope Schumer grows a spine & doesn't cave over this budget of Trump's. The CDC director & Lisa Cook, governor of the Fed, are suing Trump. So there's push back from judiciary & Congress, regarding Epstein & the people continually protest.

He ran to stay out of prison and enrich himself.

It’s hideous how he is using our taxpayer money and taking so much for his own enrichment. Bribes. Etc.
