97% of the 35,000 comments submitted to the National Capitol Planning Commission on Trump's ballroom project were negative.

This public outrage forced the Commission to postpone their final approval vote by a MONTH.

We're showing Trump that he can't mess with the People's House.

I'll also note that we still appear to be missing a ton of pages from this woman's file. There were at least *53 pages* missing (that we know about) and we still don't seem to have all of them β€” specifically the FBI's contemporaneous notes for these interviews

Perry: This St. Patrick’s Day, don’t forget Irish music’s anti-fascist roots Dropkick Murphys, the iconic Irish American punk band, are headlining a free block party March 6 near where Alex Pretti was killed by immigration agents, contributing columnist David M. Perry writes.

NEW β€œWe’re celebrating a tradition that is at its core about resisting occupation and maintaining community in the face of horrors. You can’t keep politics out of Irish music. No one should try, for two reasons. First, it’s ahistorical. Second, Minnesotans are ready for a big anti-fascist party.”

This is DOUBLY important because we know there are also agent notes associated with the first three interviews (because they were provided to Maxwell for trial), but we don't know if there are notes associated with the fourth interview β€” we know no notes given. What did agents write in those notes?

That's importantβ€”this is 2019. The Mueller report 6 months earlier said Mueller per OLC guidance can investigate a sitting president but can't contemplate charges. In interview 4, the agents don't say if they corrected her when she incorrectly assumed there's a statute of limitations on her claims

Quick note: I'm traveling through Saturday, but I've read the FBI interviews with the woman who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her when she was a child. Significant redactions (and redacted dates for some reason?) and these aren't original FBI case files. We don't know what else is in her file

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.

They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

And at an oversight hearing last month, Congresspeople pressed SEC Chair Atkins on Sun's huge contributions to Trump's crypto businesses and the agency's choice to pause the case and pursue a settlement. Asked if he could name a time he prioritized investor protection over Trump, Atkins could not.

Seems relevant: ARod was among the investors that bought the Trump Hotel DC's lease from Trump.

They later declared bankruptcy, which, of course, was relatable.

In July, shortly after Justin Sun announced his plan to purchase another $100 million of the $​TRUMP memecoin, the Sun-involved and -themed SUNDOG memecoin posted a meme showing its corgi mascot holding puppet strings attached to the White House.

The Commission also alleges that Sun violated the antifraud and market manipulation provisions of the federal securities laws by orchestrating a scheme to artificially inflate the apparent trading volume of TRX in the secondary market. From at least April 2018 through February 2019, Sun allegedly directed his employees to engage in more than 600,000 wash trades of TRX between two crypto asset trading platform accounts he controlled, with between 4.5 million and 7.4 million TRX wash traded daily. This scheme required a significant supply of TRX, which Sun allegedly provided. As alleged, Sun also sold TRX into the secondary market, generating proceeds of $31 million from illegal, unregistered offers and sales of the token.  β€œThis case demonstrates again the high risk investors face when crypto asset securities are offered and sold without proper disclosure,” said SEC Chair Gary Gensler. β€œAs alleged, Sun and his companies not only targeted U.S. investors in their unregistered offers and s

Chair Atkins has suggested that the crypto cases his agency has dropped were merely over "registration issues" that were "red herrings" from the Biden admin. But the complaint against Sun also alleged serious fraud.

The SEC Can Still Act to Hold Justin Sun Accountable One case offers the SEC an opportunity to demonstrate to Americans that the SEC still has their back. In February 2025, as part of its efforts to shut down cases holding crypto fraudsters accountable, the SEC asked the court to stay its enforcement action against Justin Sun, founder of the Tron Foundation, SEC v. Sun, et al., Case No. 1:23-cv-02433-ER (S.D.N.Y.). Unlike the other cases detailed above, this case has not yet been dismissed. The SEC’s request to stay the Sun litigation, and subsequent efforts to settle the matter, may have been unduly influenced by Sun’s relationship with the Trump family, including his significant financial contributions to their businesses.19 So that investors harmed by Sunβ€˜s fraudulent activities may be made whole, I ask the to SEC revisit its request to stay its litigation against Sun and renew that action.

The SEC’s failure to hold Sun accountable suggests that it may be part of a pay-to-play scheme orchestrated by Sun. Specifically, as recently as September 5, 2025, Sun made statements on X suggesting he intended to purchase an additional $10 million worth of $WLFI tokens from World Liberty Financial (WLF), a Trump family business, in an apparent effort to persuade WLF that he is committed to the project, that they should unlock his 545 million $WLFI tokens, and to otherwise curry favor with the Trump family. We are also concerned that a settlement favorable to Sun could undermine U.S. securities regulation and threaten the integrity of U.S. markets by a person and entities located in the People’s Republic of China. On the heels of President Trump’s pardon of Binance founder, CZ, the SEC must continue to pursue material securities fraud matters, including those involving crypto, to protect American retail investors.

Today the SEC filed a proposed final judgment to settle their lawsuit against Justin Sun and his businesses for $10 million and no admission of wrongdoing.

Sun has spent between $112 million and $233 million on contributions to Trump-linked crypto firms.
