White House: the witness’s allegations are “completely baseless” and “backed by zero credible evidence.”
Fact: FBI found her credible enough to interview repeatedly, and she received a financial settlement from the Epstein estate.
Feb 13 — White House on Noem, in a statement: “The President continues to have full confidence in the Secretary.”
Mar 6 — White House on Bondi, in a statement: “The President has full faith in the Attorney General.”
Start the clock.
Noem may be out of the job now, but her cozy “command and control center” is still costing you a fortune.
Wow. The corruption and self-dealing is boundless — in the billions.

Billionaires & corporations must be stopped from secretly buying our elections.
Dark money front groups must be required to disclose their donors.
And foreign money should have no place in our elections.
The DISCLOSE Act helps reform a broken system and ensure government of, by, and for the people.
Good piece on the law firms that caved in to Trump’s bullying.
“The latest line from Trump yesterday was that Tehran was ‘two weeks away’ from developing its own nuclear weapons.”
Zero evidence of that.
Republicans just OBJECTED to funding FEMA, TSA and the Coast Guard. They’re holding them hostage to extract more $$$ with no accountability for Trump’s rogue ICE/CBP operations.
No doubt now who’s responsible.

Today our top Democrat on Appropriations will offer to fund TSA, FEMA and the Coast Guard, agencies Republicans are holding hostage to extract more money for ICE.

It’s time to reveal the billionaire donors flooding American elections with potent dark money. I’m introducing the DISCLOSE Act with Senator Whitehouse and Rep. Pappas to make our money-drenched elections more transparent for all citizens.
The PolluterPage lauds two shadow docket proceedings that, oh, just happen both to help Republicans!
How con-veeee-nient.
Trump/Russia
Trump/Epstein
Epstein/Russia
It’s all connected.
This afternoon, around 2:50 PM, I’ll take to the Senate Floor to unpack some of the numerous, well-documented connections between these parties.
I hope you’ll tune in.
Our democracy deserves a cleanup.
My DISCLOSE Act is the solution.
Like a mob “bust-out,” Trump’s cronies have run the Kennedy Center into the ground, with closure for “renovations” covering the disaster.
