Lisa Cook's forthcoming lawsuit to contest her firing appears to list Trump and Fed Chairman Jerome Powell as defendants.

@GottaLaff Meanwhile, #Epstein?

The Epstein empire had it all - Russians, global money laundering, collecting kromocrat on international elites, model agencies, Trump teen "models" and trump teen beauty "pageant," sex trafficking & the base 'offer' was girls under 17. Yet to hear a convincing argument that there aren't links to security circles. Clients? Trump is confirmed to be in the Epstein files many times.

The Epstein saga is even more interesting when you look at the Russian women who helped run his operation.

Epstein's assistant, Svetlana (Lana) Pozhidaeva, obtained an O-1 talent visa for the US thanks to a letter of recommendation from Belyakov, Putin's then Deputy Minister of Economic Development.

Trump at today's insane Cabinet meeting:

“'So the line is I’m a dictator, but I stop crime. A lot of people say, "If that is the case I would rather have a dictator."' Then, hours later into the meeting, he brought it up again: 'Most people are saying if he stops crime, he can be whatever he wants.'”

"America’s 'Reichstag Fire' that allowed Donald Trump and MAGA to crush what remains of our fragile democracy and implement martial law was a 19-year-old DOGE employee, 'Big Balls,' who alleged that he was carjacked in the nation’s capital.

That very well could be a sentence that future historians write about our absurd and self-destructive country, where 2,000 armed National Guard members are currently patrolling Washington, D.C."

"All of this is dangerous theater for Trump to prove he’s combating crime, even as he’s pardoned 1,600 insurrectionists and given a sweetheart deal to pedophile Ghislaine Maxwell. However, this is also Project 2025 on steroids, accelerating the MAGA plan to ensure a right-wing minority rules this country for decades."
