Nobody has fought harder for full release of the Epstein files and prosecutions of those who abused children more than I did, knowing full well that the legacy media, far-left propagandists and those who are actually guilty would:
1. Admit nothing
2. Deny everything
3. Make counter-accusations against me
I knew that I would be smeared relentlessly, despite never having attended his parties or been on his “Lolita Express” plane or set foot on his creepy island or done anything wrong at all.
Nonetheless, the extreme pain of being accused of being the opposite of who I am was worth it.
The strong must protect those cannot protect themselves, especially vulnerable children. I will gladly accept any amount of future pain to do more to protect kids and give them a chance to grow up and have happy lives.

A Federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent in Minnesota shot a second person dead yesterday. Most of the debate since then has focused, understandably, on whether the ICE agent acted in what he perceived to be self-defense.
Whatever the case, it’s clear that, by encouraging people to interfere in law enforcement operations, the Left is getting people killed. Videos show both victims, Renee Good and Alex Pretti, impeding law enforcement operations, which progressive nonprofits, Democrats, and liberal influencers have been encouraging for months.
Good drove her vehicle perpendicular to block traffic while her partner taunted ICE officers. Pretti intervened at least twice, first by waving traffic through on the street and again as an ICE officer sought to subdue another person interfering in the operation, triggering the agent to use pepper spray against him.
In saying this, I am not defending the decisions and behaviors of the ICE officers or anyone else. The killings are a tragedy. And there is a worthwhile debate underway over ICE tactics, separate from the specific behaviors of Good and Pretti.
We don’t know what was in the minds of Good and Pretti specifically, but Democrats, progressives, and anti-ICE activists have for years called ICE and the Trump administration fascist and compared them to the Nazis. On January 19, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz called ICE “Donald Trump’s modern-day Gestapo.” Last year, in California, Governor Gavin Newsom signed legislation to block ICE from hiding its identities. The Los Angeles mayor called them a “reign of terror.” And a few days ago, the Lieutenant Governor of Minnesota urged citizens to “put your body on the line” to block ICE protests.
Walz and other Democrats have blocked state and local law enforcement from working with ICE, which has contributed to increasingly risky behavior by anti-ICE activists like Good and Pretti, and thus growing danger to everyone involved. There were no Minneapolis police visible in the videos of the Good and Pretti deaths.
And many of America’s largest progressive cities and states are all openly defiant of federal law, declaring themselves “sanctuaries” that protect illegal migrants from the federal government.
California, New York, Colorado, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and others are “sanctuary states”. At the same time, New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Jose, Oakland, San Diego, Sacramento, Seattle, Portland, Chicago, Denver, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Madison, Milwaukee, Boston, Cambridge, Somerville, Philadelphia, Washington, Baltimore, Newark, Jersey City, Austin, Dallas, Houston, Atlanta, Chapel Hill, Durham, Asheville, Tucson, Phoenix, Las Vegas, and Reno, are “sanctuary cities.”
The underlying problem is that for decades, schools, Hollywood, and the media have made clear that we should risk and even sacrifice our own lives to stop fascism and Nazism. And yet neither ICE raids nor Trump are fascist, and it is offensive to compare them to the Nazis.
The Nazis rounded up Jewish citizens and shipped them to death camps. ICE, by contrast, is detaining foreigners who the government believes committed criminal offenses beyond coming to the US illegally. No nation in the world has allowed more people to enter illegally. Nor has any treated them with greater due process than the US is doing.
The American people elected Trump president, like it or not, and the Constitution’s Supremacy Clause in Article VI establishes that federal law prevails over conflicting state or local laws. It ensures the Constitution, federal statutes, and treaties are the “supreme Law of the Land,” binding state courts and governments. The ICE raids may be bad politics, but there is no question that they are constitutional.
While some Democrats and progressives know their language is hyperbolic, half of the individuals surveyed told pollsters last year that Trump is a fascist. Such radical beliefs appear to have partly motivated two assassination attempts against Trump and the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
While the radical Left has for decades called its political opponents fascists, these views were until recently marginal views, even within the Democratic Party. Moreover, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, Bernie Sanders, and Hillary Clinton all spoke out against illegal migration until 2016. So what changed? Why did so many Americans come to view a democratically elected president and law enforcement operations as equivalent to fascism? What radicalized the Left?
Part of the answer is bad information. Many progressives believe ICE is simply sweeping up hard-working and law-abiding immigrants, and do not know that 64 percent of immigrants detained since Trump took office in January 2025 had criminal convictions or pending charges, in addition to having broken the law by entering and working in the country without a visa.
For some, labeling Trump as a fascist was simply a political tactic and not something they believed. But many others believe it, as the polling data shows.
Many people, both liberals and conservatives, believe progressives like Good and Pretti are acting out of empathy and sympathy for migrants. But if they are, it is purely ideologically driven, not from any real-world understanding of migrant communities. Few of the white progressives protesting ICE have ever spoken more than a few words to much less gotten to know illegal immigrants, even those who work for them as cleaners, cooks, and gardeners, much less come to understand their lives...

🚨 STEVE JOBS WAS BORN AS ABDUL LATEEF JANDALI - AND THE INTERNET IS MELTING DOWN OVER IT
Social media is going feral as people resurface claims about Steve Jobs’s origins - that before Apple, before the black turtleneck, before the all-American tech myth, there was Abdul Lateef Jandali, tied to a Syrian Muslim lineage through his biological father, Abdulfattah Jandali.
People are arguing over how a detail this fundamental could stay buried for decades while one of the most iconic American brands in history was being built - and whether the legend was always more engineered than organic.
The man obsessed with branding, image, and narrative control… now has his own origin story detonating in real time.
Was this simply ignored - or deliberately kept out of the spotlight?

Esse ano a copa do mundo é nos Estados Unidos. Espero que o Lula decrete boicote oficial ao certame, proibindo a seleção brasileira de botar os pés em um país que não respeita a soberania latino-americana. Não é só futebol.

Elon Musk on the possibilities offered by the combination of Optimus and Neuralink:
“Long term is to say, if you take parts of the Optimus humanoid robot and you combine that with a Neuralink, let's say somebody has lost their arms or legs.
Well, we could actually attach an Optimus arm or Optimus legs and do a Neuralink implant so that the motor commands from your brain that would go to your biological arms, now go to your robot arms or robot legs. And again, you'd have basically Cybernetics Superpowers.”

The Brazilian government has incarcerated former President @jairbolsonaro to start serving a 27 years prison sentence for what history will remember as the “Disney coup.”
Bolsonaro voluntarily transferred power to Lula on December 31, 2022. He left office peacefully. He took a flight to Orlando. He rented a house for a short stay and made plans to take his grandchildren to Disney World.
On January 1, Lula assumed full control of every security force in Brazil. And eight days later — with Bolsonaro abroad, retired from power, and nowhere near the levers of the state — Lula and Alexandre de Moraes declared a “coup attempt” after a few hundred protesters stormed empty government buildings in Brasilia on a quiet summer Sunday. Bolsonaro denounced the protest in real time.
A coup after leaving office. A coup with no weapons, no chain of command, no chance of succeeding. A coup allegedly directed by a former president in Florida preparing to go to Disney with his grandkids. A coup that the alleged leader denounced in real time on social media.
No serious jurist could look at this sequence and call it a coup d’etat. Yet it has now produced a 27-year sentence for the leading opposition figure in Brazil, a man who has led nearly every presidential poll for three years, on the eve of the 2026 election.
The region has seen political lawfare before. But rarely has it been executed with this level of transparent absurdity. It will be remembered as 27 years for the Disney coup.
And the timing matters. Exactly one day after the United States showed goodwill by softening tariffs, Moraes escalated to the most aggressive instance of judicial weaponization to date, confirming to the world precisely why those tariffs and sanctions were imposed in the first place.
History has seen this pattern. Jair Bolsonaro now joins the ranks of Václav Havel, Nelson Mandela, Lech Wałęsa — leaders imprisoned not for violence or corruption, but because their ideas and their supporters threatened the grip of the ruling establishment.
Institutions reveal their character by how they treat their political opponents. Democracies survive on restraint by those who wield authority, and respect for the people’s right to choose their leaders.
When courts abandon those principles by systematically targeting the most formidable adversary for the next election, justice becomes a costume worn by those who fear the verdict of the people.
