Trumps DOJ released 10 hours of footage outside Epsteins cell & there’s just a couple issues with it. 1. An entire minute was cut out from 11:58:58-12:00:00 and 2. Didn’t they say the guards were asleep? What do you think?

Democrats haven't held a Texas statewide office in 30 years and Kerr County votes Republican by 50+ points. Republicans, at multiple levels, decided not to fund an early warning system.
President Obama's Executive Order 13690
President Obama's key action to mitigate flood zones was Executive Order 13690, signed on January 30, 2015.
The Federal Flood Risk Management Standard established by EO 13690 was later revoked during the Trump administration but subsequently reinstated by President Biden through an Executive Order on Climate-Related Financial Risk.
It was rescinded by Donald Trump within hours of his assuming office on January 20, 2025.

We already have a shortage of Doctors in this country....this will help.
A big change to student loans in Trump's spending bill could make it harder to become a doctor or lawyer
- The bill eliminates the Grad PLUS student-loan program and caps borrowing for graduates and professional students.
- The caps could make it harder for some students to get their advanced degrees.
Trump signed his "big beautiful" tax and spending bill into law on July 4, codifying a slew of changes to the tax system, healthcare, and education. The law includes a major overhaul to the country's education system, particularly to the way students take out and pay off their student loans.
One specific student-loan change in the bill places new caps on the amount of loans students can borrow for graduate school, including medical and law school. Specifically, the bill eliminates the Grad PLUS loan program, which allowed graduate and professional students to borrow up to the full cost of attendance for their programs.
It also caps borrowing for graduate students at $20,500 a year and $100,000 over a lifetime and for professional students, like those in medical or law school, at $50,000 a year and $200,000 over a lifetime.
Those caps mean many students won't be able to borrow enough to cover the full price of graduate or professional school. The Association of American Medical Colleges found that the median cost for four years of public medical school was $286,454 for the class of 2024, with that amount rising to just over $390,000 at a private school.
The average total cost of law school in the latest school year, according to the Education Data Initiative, was just over $217,000.
"Eliminating or restricting these critical programs would undermine the future physician workforce and ultimately make it harder for patients in communities nationwide to get the care they need," AAMC's president and CEO, David Skorton, said in a statement.
Sara Partridge, associate director for higher education policy at the left-leaning think tank Center for American Progress, told Business Insider that she expects these new caps to worsen doctor shortages and "shut off pathways to these important jobs for students from low income families."
The Health Resources and Services Administration — a federal agency that ensures healthcare access — said in a 2024 report that 75 million people currently live in a primary care health shortage area, and it projects a shortage of 187,130 full-time physicians in 2037.
Some students might also turn toward private student loans with higher interest rates, Partridge said.
"Private student loans often require a cosigner, so some students may not qualify, and they may have no options to fully finance and attend graduate school. So there is a possibility that for some students, this will be a barrier to accessing graduate school," Partridge said.
The parent PLUS program, which previously allowed parents to borrower up to the full cost of attendance, still exists, but the bill places a $65,000 lifetime cap on parents borrowing for their kids' educations.
Along with the borrowing caps, the spending bill also instituted significant changes to student-loan repayment. It eliminated existing income-driven repayment plans and replaced them with two new options. The first option is a standard repayment plan with a payment period ranging from 10 to 25 years, based on the borrower's original balance. The second option is a new plan called the Repayment Assistance Plan, which sets borrowers' payments at 1% to 10% of their income, and any remaining balance is forgiven after 30 years.

So 34 million able bodies medicaid people must go work in farms now ??
Brooke Rollins on farm laborers: "There will be no amnesty. The mass deportations continue, but in a strategic way. And we move the workforce toward automation and 100% American participation, which with 34 million able-bodied on Medicaid we should be able to do fairly quickly."

Tucker Carlson guest: I feel particularly deceived by the Attorney General who went on camera and said we have the client list, we have the flight logs. She held a little press conference with so-called influencers in which she gave them the Epstein files. It turned out that that binder actually had redacted information in it, which was already public. They're turning the White House into a performative show and making light of the fact that there are thousands of underage victims

The Trump administration is planning to eliminate the U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board, which investigates chemical disasters to understand what went wrong. Even chemical industry groups are opposed.

Former Trump White House lawyer Ty Cobb makes claim Trump is 'worse than anyone in our history'
Trump is worse than anyone in our history in my experience and opinion.
As people seem to have forgotten, I was very critical of Biden and despite knowing him and his family well, I spent 4 years writing about his cognitive decline and weak foreign policy. He had competent advisors though including very decent men as AG and head of the FBI. While you could fairly question their effectiveness you couldn't doubt their character.
Trump has real contempt for the country, appoints wholly unqualified people to key positions and just kicked 12 million people off Medicaid, eliminated child food support and killed worldwide healthcare efforts monitoring pandemic producing diseases including Ebola (among countless other dangerous things).

Q: Your memo yesterday on Jeffrey Epstein left some lingering mysteries. Could you resolve why there was a minute missing from the jailhouse tape on the night of his death?
Trump: Are you still talking about Jeffrey Epstein? People still talking about this guy, this creep? Do you want to waste the time?

Brooke Rollins says no amnesty, mass deportations will continue, and farm work will be done by “100% Americans” — preferably the 34 million on Medicaid.
Nothing says “party of freedom” like forced farm labor for the poor.

Trump: just forget the guy ever existed. Please, we just need to drop this right now. Also forget about what Elon said when he was having a temper tantrum a month ago.

Like those $50 watches he was selling out of a strip mall in Wyoming for $1000+...cept this company is listed out of ONE apartment unit in Trump Tower Miami for the Owner who has a trail of dissolved ventures tied to his name.
Trump Mobile has partnered with Liberty Mobile Wireless, a small MVNO founded in 2018, to power its "Made in America" smartphone and wireless service. The MVNO, operating from Trump Tower in Miami, leases capacity from major carriers and lists under 50 employees with an incomplete website. Trump Mobile launched the "T1" smartphone for $499, claiming U.S. manufacturing in Alabama, California, and Florida. Though initial demand briefly crashed the order page, experts doubt large-scale domestic production is feasible due to infrastructure and labor challenges. The wireless service and device are set to officially launch in August as part of Trump’s push for American-made tech.
so what is a MVNO??
Mobile Virtual Network Operator
An MVNO, or Mobile Virtual Network Operator, is a wireless communications service provider that does not own its own network infrastructure. Instead, MVNOs enter into agreements with major mobile network operators (MNOs) to use their network infrastructure to provide services to customers. MVNOs often offer competitive pricing and flexible plans, making them popular alternatives to traditional carriers. Examples of MVNOs include Mint Mobile, Cricket, Boost, Helium and others that leverage the networks of larger carriers like Verizon and AT&T.
Trump Mobile, led by the US President’s sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, has hitched its wagon to Liberty Mobile Wireless, a tiny, little-known network operator registered to a luxury apartment in Trump Tower Miami. The company was founded in 2018 and lists fewer than 50 employees. As The Financial Times points out, its FAQ page is filled with placeholder text (“What is Lorem Ipsum?”). Public records link the founder of Liberty Mobile Wireless, Matt Lopatin, to multiple other dissolved ventures. Financial Times’ attempts to reach the company for comment went unanswered.
