#Pritzker said #Trump was looking for “any excuse to put active-duty [#military] on our streets supposedly to protect #ICE,” & already had begun preparing members of the #Texas #NationalGuard for a deployment to #Illinois. TX officials have not commented on the issue.

It’s unclear how Trump would legally send #US #troops to #Chicago without Pritzker’s consent. [he can’t legally, but that won’t stop him from doing it illegally, this is what happens when you elect a #CONVICTED #FELON!]

5) What #Survivors See - They see a #convicted #trafficker handed a microphone to varnish the reputations of men who mingled in #Epstein world—and a government more interested in optics than the full #truth. They see the same system that finally delivered a verdict turn around and platform the convicted, while the wounded are asked—again—to swallow the rewrite. This isn’t cynicism. It’s pattern recognition. DeanBlundell@substack.com #trump #corruption #criminal #doj #law #legal #politics #maga

3) #Maxwell Tapes Prove #Trump is Leading History's Boldest #CoverUp. #Convicted #child #trafficker granted #immunity to #lie for the president while real #FBI documents remain hidden - 100,000 pages of documents, tapes, audio, video, photos, transcripts, in other words, the facts and the truth.

2) The proffer interview recording of Maxwell by Trump’s former #criminal #defense l#awyer now Dep. #AG #ToddBlanche was released today & (Surprise!) she said #Trump did nothing wrong: “The president was never inappropriate with anybody. And the times that I was with him, he was a gentleman in all respects.”… And right after this interview, #Ghislaine Maxwell became the only #convicted #sexoffender in #US to be transferred to a #minimum #security #ClubFed and shot to the top of the #pardon list.

…While details about the extent of #Trump & the #convicted #SexOffender’s relationship remain murky, Wolff, who has interviewed #Epstein, said on Thursday that “Epstein & Trump functioned as a duo.” He also alleged that #PrinceAndrew, Epstein, & Trump were at one point like the “three musketeers.”
“They were, you know, grifter buddies, basically,” he said. “I mean, they had the same interests—interests in women–& also in money.”

#ErikPrince, a former US Navy Seal, founded the #Blackwater military security [#mercenary] firm in 1997. He sold the company in 2010 after Blackwater employees were #convicted of unlawfully killing [murdering] 14 unarmed #civilians while escorting a US embassy convoy in Baghdad's Nisour Square [#NisourSquareMassacre]. The men received #pardons from #Trump during his first term in the White House.

Even FOX "news" is calling BULLSHIT on Trump's LIES about crime in Washington DC....

3) Another note - Deputy #AttorneyGeneral #ToddBlanche, who represented #DonaldTrump during his 2024 #criminal trial, and facilitated the transfer of #convicted #sextrafficker #GhislaineMaxwell to a club fed minimum security facility, was appointed acting #librarian of #Congress after #Trump fired librarian #CarlaHayden saying she was advancing a “woke” agenda. Dr. Carla Hayden was appointed senior fellow at Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to advance public #knowledge through libraries & #archives.

The media mogul Mortimer Zuckerman suggested ingredients for a meal that would reflect the culture of the mansion: a simple salad & whatever else “would enhance Jeffrey’s sexual performance.”

And the director Woody Allen described how the dinners reminded him of Dracula’s castle, “where Lugosi has three young female vampires who service the place.”
