Jason Leopold surfaces the FBI General Counsel office's guidance to agents in redacting the Epstein files. The problem: it's flagrantly noncompliant with the Epstein Act.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

I watch the bulk of ashleythebaroness videos, despite rarely sharing them.
But this one hit today.
And she's right! We're not dealing with some foreign ideology. We're dealing with a uniquely American phenomenon.

I found this useful.
BREAKING: The Hennepin County District Attorney's office says they have jurisdiction to charge the ICE agent involved in the fatal Minneapolis shooting.
🇺🇸 MINNEAPOLIS VETERAN: "They are terrorizing the population, in Afghanistan we never wore masks.” (From @statuscoupnews.bsky.social )
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Minnesota investigators say they can't access evidence after fatal ICE shooting and FBI won't work jointly on probe.
@reuters.com
"The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension has just revealed that federal officials have 'reversed course,' and the investigation into the killing of a Minneapolis woman by an ICE agent will be conducted by the FBI without assistance from the BCA."
Really good video breakdown of the shooting of Renee Good illustrating that yes, this was cold blooded murder by an ICE agent.
Emily Heller, an eyewitness, is speaking out to set the record straight. Officers were screaming at Renee Nicole Good, “Move, move, move.”
So she moved, and they shot her multiple times? Then Noem and Trump branded her a domestic terrorist. Does everyone see how absolutely insane that sounds?
Watch as ICE refuses to let a doctor render aid to Renee Nicole Good.
We have one open end and wind always kicks up from the rivers meeting at the point. It’s never a guarantee you are going to make it. Gary Anderson was the only one that I believe never missed.
In our stadium, 50/50 shot. With only one end closed the wind whips through and changes the direction you have to adjust.
There is no guarantee with the goal posts in Pittsburgh and one open end. The only person I can think of that never missed even with the wind was Gary Anderson.
I feel like everyone is starting to look at it like an escape room!
Conor Lamb was the other choice when Fetterman was running. Hopefully he will jump back in and challenge him when it’s reelection time.
Thank you for posting full clip!

This is such a great callout…
Does your Christian church have a plan to help the community when SNAP benefits don’t go out in November?
If not, you’re at the wrong church.
It has been a whirlwind two days. From our launch yesterday to four media interviews today. Nearly 2,000 folks have stepped up to donate to our grassroots campaign. It’s humbling. We are working to come out swinging and take back MO-2 and help working Missourians. ICMYI our kick off video.

Yesterday, ICE agents detained firefighters who were actively fighting a wildfire. As a firefighter and paramedic, I know firsthand that in an emergency, every second counts, and politics should never come before saving lives.
We have too in Pittsburgh!
