Senator Adam Schiff (D-CA) had critics firing back over his recent comments at the Texas Tribune Festival — where he claimed that politicians should not use their power to render presidents or political parties &#8220;unsuccessful&#8221; due to their political differences.
Schiff, who was elected to fill the late Senator Dianne Feinstein&#8217;s (D-CA) seat in 2024, spent the previous 24 years in the House of Representatives — argued that it was a &#8220;ruinous idea&#8221; to allow &#8220;good politics&#8221; to stand in the way of doing the right thing for the American people.

&#8220;That attitude that you can make a president or a party unsuccessful, no matter what damage it might do to the country, because it&#8217;s good politics — we have to get past that ruinous idea,&#8221; he said. &#8220;We have to figure out a way to stop viewing each other as our enemy.&#8221;
&#8220;That solution will come when we figure out how to be better consumers of information and how to determine what&#8217;s true and what&#8217;s not true, how to stop rewarding advertising behemoths for dividing us the way they do,&#8221; he claimed.
Critics quickly called out the California senator, pointing to his own dogged efforts to render Trump &#8220;unsuccessful&#8221; or boot him out of office entirely.
&#8220;Dilbert&#8221; creator Scott Adams posted, &#8220;Schiff’s entire game depends on people not remembering what he said yesterday.&#8221;

Schiff spent most of Trump&#8217;s first term telling any media personality who would listen that he had proof of Trump&#8217;s &#8220;collusion&#8221; with Russia — proof that he never delivered. He then served as manager of President Donald Trump&#8217;s first impeachment in 2019, presenting a case that was so one-sided that it provoked an angry response from George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley.
&#8220;If you make a high crime and misdemeanor out of going to the courts, it is an abuse of power — it’s your abuse of power,&#8221; Turley said at the time. &#8220;Fast and narrow is not a good recipe for impeachment.&#8221;

Author Barry Levine claimed on Saturday that he believed the late convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein&#8217;s ties to President Donald Trump were rooted in animosity rather than in any shared illegal activities.
Levine, author of &#8220;The Spider: Inside the Criminal Web of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell,&#8221; spoke with CNN host Michael Smerconish about the recently released emails — held up by Democrats as proof the Trump and Epstein were cut from the same cloth — which he said did not necessarily mean what Trump&#8217;s critics claim they did.

&#8220;The &#8216;dog that hasn&#8217;t barked is trump.&#8217; What do you think he&#8217;s referring to?&#8221; Smerconish referenced an email Epstein sent in 2011.
&#8220;I think Jeffrey Epstein is referring to the fact that he believes that Donald Trump talked to Michael Ryder, who was the Palm Beach police chief in 2004 and began the first investigation into Jeffrey Epstein,&#8221; Levine said. That investigation began in earnest in 2005, and Trump officially banned Epstein from Mar-a-Lago in 2007.
&#8220;I suspect that Jeffrey Epstein was saying he was &#8216;75% there,&#8217; believing that Trump might have been the whistleblower at the time,&#8221; Levine continued. &#8220;That particular year, the 2 men had a falling out — not only over the fact that Ghislaine Maxwell was taking young women from his spa at Mar-a-Lago for Jeffrey Epstein — but they also had a nasty real estate deal that both men were trying to get &#8230; So there was bad blood between the two of them.&#8221;
Levine seems an unlikely figure to defend President Trump, however, as his statements come against the backdrop of another book he wrote in 2019 — &#8220;All the President&#8217;s Women: Donald Trump and the Making of a Predator&#8221; — in which he delved into the accusations of sexual misconduct made against Trump. It should noted that those accusations, described in detail in the book, involved women who were not underage at the time they supposedly interacted with Trump.

Photos posted online show Democrat Congressman Brad Sherman (CA) looking at what appears to be pornographic images of women on his tablet during a recent flight.
Sherman, who is <a href="https://www.congress.gov/115/bills/hres438/BILLS-115hres438ih.pdf?utm_source=chatgpt.com">fiercely anti-Trump</a>, has denied that he was looking at pornography, while admitting to looking at the suggestive photos and blaming the X algorithm.
“If I see a picture of a woman, might I look at it longer than a sunset? Yeah,&#8221; Sherman told reporter John Bresnahan in the aftermath of the scandal. He also said what he was doing was &#8220;inappropriate.&#8221;

When the news broke on Thursday that Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) had suffered a fall in his home town of Braddock, Pennsylvania, the response on social media was immediate: conservatives flooded the platform with well wishes for the Democratic senator, and the lefties on BlueSky mocked him and complained that he&#8217;d lived.
Fetterman&#8217;s team announced that he&#8217;d simply suffered a &#8220;ventricular fibrillation flare-up,&#8221; and then fell because he&#8217;d felt light-headed. He sustained minor injuries to his face and is expected to recover. Fetterman himself seemed to be in good spirits, quipping, &#8220;If you thought my face looked bad before, wait until you see it now!&#8221;
Conservative commentator Steve Guest shared a screenshot showing a few of the posts from BlueSky responding to the news — and they ranged from simply mocking him to wishing he&#8217;d been unable to get up again.
&#8220;Blue Sky is an absolute cesspool right now in the wake of the news about John Fetterman&#8217;s fall,&#8221; he posted.

It is a brand-new day, and that means it&#8217;s time for more Epstein revelations.
The reason for the Epstein revelations is that there was a discharge petition put forward late last night in the House of Representatives. The petition was signed by several rogue Republicans — some of whom are very much oriented against the Trump administration — in order to shame President Trump by saying that there ought to be a widespread release of more documents.
Democrats had to chum the waters. They had to make everyone interested in Epstein again. So they decided to do this in their usual fashion, which is to selectively release three emails.
Republicans then responded by releasing 20,000 pages of documents.
The Democrats were attempting a shame tactic directed at President Trump that was going to demonstrate full-scale that he was in Jeffrey Epstein&#8217;s pocket, or that Jeffrey Epstein was blackmailing Donald Trump, or that Jeffrey Epstein had untoward material about Trump, which is why Trump has been reluctant to allow for the release of more materials.
The reason President Trump does not favor the release of more materials is, as he has noted, there are already tens of thousands of pages of materials out there, and courts have already barred the release of an enormous number of these materials on the basis of victim protection. The FBI is doing the same.
You can yell and scream about it as much as you want, but these discharge petitions, these attempts to pry more documents out, are likely to fail in court.
President Trump believes the whole process is an attempt, by implication, to humiliate him.
And it does seem like that based on what the Democrats did. They dropped three emails, which were less than edifying with regard to the broad conspiracy theories that have been put out there about Jeffrey Epstein.

As I&#8217;ve said a thousand times, there are true, open, honest questions to be asked about Jeffrey Epstein: How did he make all of his money? Where did all that money come from? Why was one media mogul paying him something like $158 million to do his taxes and look for tax breaks? Why was another mogul giving him access to a $70 million home in Manhattan?
These are very real questions that require very real answers. But instead, the entire realm has been filled with the most outlandish speculation. The case that you have heard — retailed in public by many prominent figures — is not the idea that Jeffrey Epstein was running a child sex trafficking ring on behalf of himself, in which he preyed on underage girls, but a broader conspiracy involving the idea that Jeffrey Epstein brought in a bunch of underage girls and a bunch of prominent people, and then blackmailed them after making tapes and taking pictures of them.
There is no evidence for this. In fact, Michael Tracey, who&#8217;s been all over this for years — a journalist with whom I frequently disagree — has done a very good job digging into the details, and there’s no evidence for that version of the story.
That still doesn&#8217;t answer the question as to where all the money was coming from. Was he blackmailing those guys? That could be. But as far as Donald Trump or Bill Clinton or any of the other wide variety of figures who have been mentioned in connection with this, unless you have evidence, it&#8217;s very difficult to make claims about them.
That has been blown into an even bigger conspiracy theory, that Jeffrey Epstein was a foreign agent acting on behalf of a foreign power, honey-trapping these guys in order to blackmail them to change policy.
The evidence of that just doesn&#8217;t exist. If it did, then Dan Bongino, Kash Patel, the president, and the vice president would have an obligation to tell you that.
But they&#8217;re telling you the opposite.
So where is the evidence? It&#8217;s a free country. You can speculate, but stop pretending the speculation is evidence.
That&#8217;s the backdrop of all of this.
Democrats are trying to underscore allegations that Donald Trump was being blackmailed by Jeffrey Epstein. But in the supposedly embarrassing emails involving Donald Trump, there&#8217;s no “there” there.
Email number one was an email from Jeffrey Epstein, apparently to his lawyer, saying, “I want you to realize that the dog that hasn&#8217;t barked is Trump.” 
This is April 2, 2011, long before Donald Trump was even a gleam in the eye of American presidential politics in a serious way.
“I want you to realize that the dog that has embarked is Trump.” Redaction. And then it says, “‘Victim’ spent hours at my house with him. He has never once been mentioned, police chief, etc. I&#8217;m 75% there.”
There is one major problem with this particular revelation. What the Democrats did was to redact the name of the person, supposedly because it was to protect the victim. Who&#8217;s the victim? The victim here is apparently Virginia Giuffre.
Virginia Giuffre was a very unstable person. She passed away recently. She was considered such an unstable personality that prosecutors could not use her in the case against Jeffrey Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell. Not only that, but in a sworn deposition, Virginia Giuffre literally said that she was never mistreated by Donald Trump. But if you just read that email out of context, it would sound as though Virginia Giuffre was trafficked to Donald Trump.
But that&#8217;s not what the email says, and that&#8217;s not what the email means. And we have counter-evidence with regard to this particular person.
This is a very cynical move by Democrats to redact the name there and then put “victim.” Not because Virginia Giuffre wasn&#8217;t a victim of someone — he may very well have been victimized by Prince Andrew — but because we know who she is publicly. Also, she&#8217;s dead, so there&#8217;s no more victim protection.
There&#8217;s a deposition with Virginia Giuffre. She said, “Donald Trump was also a good friend of Jeffrey’s. He didn’t partake in sex with any of us but he flirted with me.”
ABC News<a href="https://abcnews.go.com/US/virginia-giuffre-trump-jeffrey-epstein/story?id=127468657"> noted</a>:
<blockquote>Years later, while being questioned by lawyers for Maxwell (who Giuffre sued in 2015 for defamation) – Giuffre said the quote about Trump attributed to her was not accurate. She also said that she had met Trump when she worked at Mar-a-Lago in 2000, but said she did not recall ever seeing Trump at Epstein’s homes or seeing Trump and Epstein together in the same place. She also said Trump never flirted with her.</blockquote>
The basic idea that Giuffre was victimized by Trump is not true. Democrats put out the email cynically and then redacted the name of the victim to make it look like there was another victim who was not Virginia Giuffre victimized by President Trump.
Not true.
The second email is from Jeffrey Epstein to Michael Wolff, who was basically doing PR on behalf of Jeffrey Epstein. Michael Wolff is the author who is constantly writing extremely sleazy and half-accurate tomes about what&#8217;s going on in the Trump administration or the White House.
Wolff was doing defense for Jeffrey Epstein, which shows you what kind of human he is. Jeffrey Epstein apparently wrote to Michael Wolff of Trump, “Of course he knew about the girls as he asked Ghislaine to stop.”
If he asked Ghislaine to stop, I don&#8217;t understand why that&#8217;s bad for Trump. They released this email to make it sound like Trump knew about the girls. This email is dated January 2019. According to Trump, he threw Epstein out of his club because he knew that he was acting in nefarious ways.
Third email: from Michael Wolff. This is December 15, 2015.
Michael Wolff wrote, “I hear CNN planning to ask Trump tonight about his relationship with you, either on air or in scrum afterward.” 
Epstein wrote, “If we were able to craft an answer for him, what do you think it should be?” 
Wolf wrote back, “I think you should let him hang himself. If he says he hasn&#8217;t been on the plane or to the house, then that gives you a valuable PR political currency. You can hang him in a way that potentially generates a positive benefit for you. Or if it really looks like he could win, you could save him generating a debt. Of course, it is possible that when asked, he’ll say Jeffrey is a great guy and has gotten a raw deal and is a victim of political correctness, which is to be outlawed in Trump regime”.
The proof here is that Michael Wolff, who is a purveyor of many untruths, said to Jeffrey Epstein that he should hold over Trump&#8217;s head the idea that maybe he had been on the plane or to the house.
I&#8217;m not sure what this is supposed to prove.
These are the only three emails the Democrats released. They released them in order to imply things about Trump without actually saying them.
This is one of the things that&#8217;s deeply annoying about our current politics: People are never asked to actually say the thing they appear to be saying.
Instead, they just imply, and then they back away, and then they imply some more, and then they back away.
If you want to say it, just say it. It&#8217;s a free country. You can say it.
And then we can all judge you by what you are actually claiming.

Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) drew a shocked response from CNN anchor Dana Bash when he told her that the most vicious attacks aimed at him have not come from conservatives, but rather from those on the Left.
Fetterman sat down with Bash to discuss his new memoir, &#8220;Unfettered,&#8221; and she explained that she&#8217;d been struck by a claim he made in the book — namely that Democrats were consistently more cruel in their attacks than Republicans were.

&#8220;You said, quote, &#8216;I&#8217;ve drunk deeply of the venom of both the Left and the Right. And as a connoisseur, I can confirm that the most poisonous, the bitterest, is from the far Left,'&#8221; Bash read from the book. &#8220;That is pretty remarkable to hear you say that as an elected Democrat. Why?&#8221;
&#8220;It&#8217;s just been my personal experience on this thing,&#8221; said Fetterman, who has repeatedly bucked the far Left in his party on major issues such as the war between Israel and Gaza and the recent battle to reopen the federal government.
&#8220;I asked my digital team, I said, ‘We’re on all the platforms, you know, what’s kind of the harshest? What’s kind of the most personal?&#8221; Fetterman asked. &#8220;And the answer was immediate. They said, ‘Oh, Bluesky. It’s Bluesky.&#8221;
&#8220;And the difference is the Right would say really rough things and names, some names I won’t repeat on TV,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;But on the Left, it was like, they want me to die, or that ‘We’re cheering for your next stroke’ or that&#8217;s terrible that depression — &#8216;Why couldn’t the depression won?&#8217; And &#8216;I hope your kids find you.&#8217; And they even have a graphic, like a gif where they have a stroke in your head —&#8221;
&#8220;Oh my gosh!&#8221; Bash exclaimed, clearly shocked.
&#8220;And they said that — I remember one that they claimed, &#8216;oh, the doctor let us down,&#8217; and &#8216;why did they have to save his life?'&#8221; Fetterman added. &#8220;I mean, just really — I just can&#8217;t imagine people are wishing, &#8216;I wish he dies,&#8217; or &#8216;I want him to die,&#8217; you know, literally cheering for a stroke. And I don&#8217;t know what the kind of a place where that comes from.&#8221;
&#8220;That&#8217;s much different from calling me a name,&#8221; he explained. &#8220;And that&#8217;s really been consistent in that community online.&#8221;

There is a serious battle happening inside the Democratic Party, ranging from the radicals — led by people like Zohran Mamdani, AOC, and Bernie Sanders — to the more traditional liberals, who don&#8217;t seem to have any sort of systemic immunity, to the moderate Democrats who are increasingly feeling out of step with their own party. 
Meanwhile, President Trump just keeps trucking along. Yesterday, the president of the United States spent Veterans Day <a href="https://www.c-span.org/program/white-house-event/veterans-day-observance-ceremony/668831">speaking</a> about the value of our veterans, stating:
<blockquote>This morning, on these hallowed grounds where generations of American heroes rest in eternal glory, we gather to fulfill the sacred duty of every free man and woman. On Veterans Day, we honor those who have worn the uniform, who have borne the battle, who have stood to watch, whose ranks have formed the mighty wall of flesh and blood, bravery and devotion, that has defended our freedom for 250 years. Today, to every veteran — we love our veterans — we say the words too often left unsaid: “Thank you for your service.”</blockquote>
President Trump has a baseline level of patriotism that comes through in everything that he does. The man truly loves this country and obviously loves the American flag and the American military.
He continued by speaking about what we owe to the military — something the radical Democrats do not believe — saying:
<blockquote>Yet every captain of industry, every pioneer of science, and every star whose brilliance has lit up the lights of Broadway, all share one thing in common. They only had the chance to show up because the veterans had the courage to serve. They took care of those people. They took care of all the stars. The stars that you read about wouldn&#8217;t be here without our veterans. Everything we have, everything our country has achieved, has been purchased by the muscle, spine and steel of the United States military. We owe it all to the fierce and noble men and women of the Army, the Navy, the Air Force, Space Force, Coast Guard, and the United States Marines.</blockquote>
Contrast that with how Hasan Piker has been spending the last few days. He went to China, and while he was in China, he decided that he was <a href="https://x.com/DrewPavlou/status/1988137151666811252?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1988137151666811252%7Ctwgr%5Ef2722b4aaef4e9a3eebbeeca5a382b177a407c5a%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mediaite.com%2Fmedia%2Fnews%2Fhasan-piker-declares-i-dont-have-any-patriotism-for-america-while-streaming-from-tiananmen-square%2F">going to blather</a> about how America is terrible —  in a country that legitimately censors everything you do, kills its opposition, and runs them over with tanks. Hasan Piker was in Tiananmen Square, where protesters against the Chinese government were murdered.
“I don&#8217;t have any sort of patriotism in my heart for America, but just in general. &#8230; I care about people,” he declared.
If that is the choice that Americans are given, and if Democrats continue to embrace this sort of radicalism, they are in some real trouble.
Hasan Piker is, of course, fairly close with Zohran Mamdani, the new mayor-elect of New York. He attended his victory party in New York, where he was going around saying on camera that it was a tragedy that the Soviet Union had collapsed.

So, radicals are taking over the Democratic Party. There&#8217;s no question they are the ones with the momentum at this point, if the Democratic Party refuses to stand up and say no.
On Monday, there was a protest that turned into <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/chaos-breaks-out-at-tpusa-event-as-leftist-agitators-harass-attendees">a small riot</a> outside a TPUSA event at the University of California, Berkeley. This sort of thing has become common; Antifa radicals and their allies show up at events such as the TPUSA event.
Are there enough normie Democrats to stop this radicalism from taking over the party? The problem for them is that they are perfectly willing to go along with this sort of thing.
The liberal mainstream Democratic Party wants to capture what they think is the jet fuel of the radicals. Thus, Gavin Newsom <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2025/11/11/gavin-newsom-shames-democrats-who-caved-in-shutdown-battle-pathetic-capitulation-and-a-betrayal/">raged</a> against the end of the shutdown.

This isn&#8217;t a deal. It&#8217;s a surrender. Don&#8217;t bend the knee!”
That’s Gavin Newsom linking arms with the radicals in his own party. J.B. Pritzker, who, like Newsom, wants to run for president, also said that the government should remain closed. 
California Rep. Ro Khanna <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/11/12/ro-khanna-senate-democrats-shutdown-schumer/">says</a> the Democratic leadership is “out of touch.”
To understand what’s now happening inside the Democratic Party, look no further than the historical analogy found in the Russian Revolution. There were some soft socialists, the so-called Russian whites, led by a guy named Alexander Kerensky. They were trying to hold off the Reds, and started off in an unenviable position militarily, but ended up winning because eventually there wasn&#8217;t enough systemic immunity to stop them.
That&#8217;s where we are right now. The systemic immunity is gone.
We&#8217;ll see how long this current Democratic Party can last without splintering into pieces.

Popular radio host Charlamagne tha God claimed on Tuesday that he believed the best possible messenger for the Democratic Party in the current political climate was Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX), an outspoken and persistent foil of President Donald Trump and his administration.
Charlamagne raised the issue just after a handful of Democratic senators voted with Republicans to reopen the federal government, effectively ending the longest shutdown in history, despite the fact that Democrats had just delivered electoral victories in Virginia, New Jersey, and New York City.

“To me it&#8217;s more than Jasmine Crockett having that moment with Marjorie Taylor Greene where she was like &#8216;bad-built bleach body,&#8217; whatever it is,” he continued. “If you watch her in these congressional meetings, she&#8217;s always on message about something.”

He went on to complain that he also took issue with the fact that Democrats often talked about Crockett behind her back rather than making public statements like the Republicans did.

President Donald Trump responded to emails released by House Democrats on Wednesday morning that show convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein discussing the president, arguing that the move is the Democratic Party&#8217;s attempt to distract from its failure on the government shutdown.
Trump was named in multiple Epstein emails that were released by House Democrats, including one from 2019 in which Epstein claimed that Trump “knew about the girls.” Democrats argued that the revelations “raise serious questions about Donald Trump and his knowledge of Epstein’s horrific crimes.&#8221; The president shot back at Democrats in a Truth Social post shortly after the emails were made public.
&#8220;The Democrats are trying to bring up the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax again because they’ll do anything at all to deflect on how badly they’ve done on the Shutdown, and so many other subjects. Only a very bad, or stupid, Republican would fall into that trap,&#8221; Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115538279653817159">wrote</a>. &#8220;The Democrats cost our Country $1.5 Trillion Dollars with their recent antics of viciously closing our Country, while at the same time putting many at risk — and they should pay a fair price. There should be no deflections to Epstein or anything else, and any Republicans involved should be focused only on opening up our Country, and fixing the massive damage caused by the Democrats!&#8221;
Earlier on Wednesday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt pushed back with context that appears to undermine the Democrats’ release.
Leavitt said that the redacted victim mentioned in the email is Virginia Giuffre, who died by suicide earlier this year. Giuffre had previously said that she did not believe Trump took part in Epstein’s sexual abuse of minors.
“The Democrats selectively leaked emails to the liberal media to create a fake narrative to smear President Trump. The ‘unnamed victim’ referenced in these emails is the late Virginia Giuffre, who repeatedly said President Trump was not involved in any wrongdoing whatsoever and ‘couldn’t have been friendlier’ to her in their limited interactions,” Leavitt <a href="https://x.com/MaryMargOlohan/status/1988649781862838297" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in a statement obtained by Daily Wire White House Correspondent Mary Margaret Olohan.
After the Democrats released three emails on Wednesday, House GOP Oversight released an <a href="https://oversight.house.gov/release/oversight-committee-releases-additional-epstein-estate-documents/">additional 20,000 pages</a> of documents received from Epstein&#8217;s estate.

The emails released show Epstein discussing Trump with his fixer, Ghislaine Maxwell, in which Epstein claimed that Trump “spent hours” at Epstein’s home with one of the sexual abusers’ victims.
Epstein wrote that Trump “knew about the girls&#8221; in an email he sent to author Michael Wolff on January 31, 2019, less than seven months before Epstein was found dead in what authorities say was a suicide in his New York jail cell.
“[T]rump said he asked me to resign, never a member ever,” the email to Wolff states. “[O]f course he knew about the girls as he asked ghislaine [sic] to stop.”
Epstein’s email appears to be addressing Trump’s move to force him out of his club at Mar-a-Lago. Trump, who was a friend of Epstein’s in the 1990s and early 2000s, <a href="https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/the-facts-and-timeline-of-trump-and-epsteins-falling-out" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reportedly</a> kicked Epstein out of his club in 2007, just months before the wealthy financier pled guilty in Florida to state charges of soliciting a prostitute under 18 years old.
In another email released by Democrats on Wednesday, Epstein claimed that Trump “spent hours” at Epstein’s home with one of the sexual abuser’s victims.
“[I] want you to realize that the dog that hasn’t barked is trump [sic]. [REDACTED] spent hours at my house with him, has never once been mentioned. [P]olice chief. etc. [I’m] 75% there.”

Trump Responds To Epstein Emails Dropped By Dems, Says It's An Attempt To 'Deflect' From Shutdown

House Democrats released new emails on Wednesday morning that work to tie President Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein&#8217;s sex crimes, with the White House immediately firing back labeling the emails &#8220;selectively leaked&#8221; and designed &#8220;to create a fake narrative to smear&#8221; Trump.

&#8220;The fact remains that President Trump kicked Jeffrey Epstein out of his club decades ago for being a creep to his female employees, including Giuffre,&#8221; Leavitt added. &#8220;These stories are nothing more than bad-faith efforts to distract from President Trump’s historic accomplishments, and any American with common sense sees right through this hoax and clear distraction from the government opening back up again.”
In a third email thread unveiled by Democrats, Wolff and Epstein appear to be strategizing on political tactics surrounding Trump.
&#8220;I hear CNN planning to ask Trump tonight about his relationship with you&#8211;either on air or in scrum afterwards,&#8221; Wolff wrote to Epstein on December 15, 2015, the same day that CNN hosted a 2016 Republican presidential primary debate.
&#8220;If we were able to craft an answer for him, what do you think it should be?&#8221; Epstein replied.
“I think you should let him hang himself. If he says he hasn’t been on the plane or to the house, then that gives you a valuable P.R. and political currency,&#8221; Wolff wrote of what he thought Trump&#8217;s strategy should be. &#8220;You can hang him in a way that generates positive benefits for you, or, if it really looks like he could win, you could save him, generating a debt. Of course, it is possible that, when asked, he&#8217;ll say Jeffrey is a great guy and has gotten a raw deal and is a victim of political correctness, which is to be outlawed in a Trump regime.&#8221;

Trump was never asked about Epstein during that debate.
Critics have pointed out numerous holes in Wolff&#8217;s reporting throughout the years, including in his most popular book, &#8220;Fire and Fury,&#8221; which focused on the first Trump administration. Wolff wrote a piece for The Daily Beast earlier this year linking first lady Melania Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, alleging that she was &#8220;very involved&#8221; in the scandal. The Daily Beast <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/epstein-this-story-has-been-removed/">removed</a> Wolff&#8217;s article from its site, writing in an editor&#8217;s note, “Upon reflection, we have determined that the article did not meet our standards and has therefore been removed from our platforms.”
Trump has not been accused of any wrongdoing related to Epstein&#8217;s sexual abuse of young girls. The Trump administration, however, has faced criticism from both sides of the aisle for its handling of the Epstein investigation after the Department of Justice said in July that it reviewed the case and did not find evidence of an Epstein client list. The DOJ also concluded that the evidence shows that Epstein committed suicide in his jail cell.

Dems Drop New Epstein Emails In Which He Claims Trump ‘Knew About The Girls’

House Democrats

WASHINGTON—The Senate passed a bipartisan agreement Monday night to reopen the federal government, which, if it passes the House as expected, will bring an end to the longest government shutdown in the nation’s history.
As the shutdown reached day 41, lawmakers passed a final package including a continuing resolution until January 30 and three bipartisan full-year appropriations bills — also known as a &#8220;minibus.&#8221;
A big hurdle was cleared late Sunday night when the Senate voted 60-40 on the House-passed continuing resolution, officially reaching the 60-vote threshold needed to pass.
Lawmakers extended the resolutions expiration date — originally set for November 21 — so the regular appropriations process could continue after the prolonged shutdown.
On Sunday, after 14 failed votes to reopen the government, Democratic Sens. Dick Durbin (IL), Jeanne Shaheen (NH), Maggie Hassan (NH), Jacky Rosen (NV), and Tim Kaine (VA) flipped their votes to side with Republicans.
The group that previously sided with Republicans voted with them again: Sens. Catherine Cortez-Masto (D-NV), Angus King (I-ME), and John Fetterman (D-PA).
For nearly 40 days, both parties held firm. Democrats said they wanted to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits — which expire at the end of the year — among other demands. Republicans said they’d discuss health care, but demanded the Democrats vote to open the government first.
While Republicans did not give Democrats an extension of the tax credits, Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) said on the floor Sunday night that he guaranteed Democrats a vote no later than the second week in December on their health care proposal.
The deal also reinstates reductions in force (RIFs) that occurred during the shutdown.
The “minibus” includes full-year funding for agriculture appropriations, military construction-VA appropriations, and legislative branch appropriations.
On November 7, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) proposed a one-year ACA extension in exchange for immediately ending the shutdown.
The proposal was swiftly rejected as a &#8220;non-starter&#8221; from Republicans.
Thune said on Sunday that he was &#8220;thankful to be able to say that we have senators, both Democrat and Republican, who are eager to get to work to address that crisis in a bipartisan way.&#8221;
&#8220;These senators are not interested in political games – they’re interested in finding real ways to address health care costs for American families. We also have a president who is willing to sit down and get to work on this issue,&#8221; Thune said.
Thune said he is looking forward to seeing &#8220;what solutions might be brought forward.&#8221;
Schumer, in a <a href="https://x.com/SenSchumer/status/1987710257053790574?s=20">post on X</a> Sunday night, vowed to &#8220;keep fighting&#8221; and said Dems &#8220;have been fighting for months to address America&#8217;s healthcare crisis. For the millions who will lose coverage&#8230;&#8221;
Meanwhile, House Minority Leader Hakeem <a href="https://x.com/RepJeffries/status/1987665600731103513?s=20">Jeffries</a> (D-NY) and <a href="https://x.com/RepMcGovern/status/1987686691411272130?s=20">several</a> <a href="https://x.com/DorisMatsui/status/1987741459316105554">House</a> Democrats took to X to oppose the Senate’s proposal.
Jeffries said he will not support spending legislation advanced by Senate Republicans that “fails to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits.&#8221;
The House is expected to vote on the resolution as early as Wednesday.
