If the Trump administration wasn’t running a full-on pedophile protection program, they’d have these investigations up and running already. Instead, they’re hiding the vast majority of the Epstein files and letting Epstein’s enablers and co-conspirators off the hook.

Every bank and bank employee that enabled Epstein’s trafficking by failing to blow the whistle on his suspicious transactions should be under federal investigation.
With all the banks Epstein used, it’s the same pattern again and again. They could have blown the whistle, but they didn’t. His trafficking continued. The number of victims grew right up until the end.
But like we’ve seen with other banks, it appears BNY turned a blind eye to what Epstein was doing. They were legally required to flag these suspicious transactions in real time, but they waited more than a decade to do so, until Epstein was already behind bars.
These transactions had some of the key hallmarks of money laundering, including a series of 20 transactions spread over 9 months in which Epstein moved exactly $1 million out of BNY into his accounts at another bank, JPMorgan.
Epstein used a lot of banks to move money around. My investigators found that Epstein moved $378 million in and out of accounts at BNY over the course of 270 suspicious transactions.
EPSTEIN UPDATE: today I’m expanding my follow-the-money investigation of Epstein’s financing by examining his transactions at another Wall Street Bank, BNY Mellon.
This is about scaring anyone who would report on things the Trump administration wants to keep secret. Intimidating a free press is a hallmark of authoritarians.
Trump and Republicans raised taxes on clean energy last year, destroying our best opportunity to hold down people's energy bills as data centers gobble up electricity. Anything he says he's doing on energy costs now is a fraud.

"Sens. Ron Wyden of OR, Ed Markey of MA and Ben Ray Luján of NM asked the companies to “enforce” terms of service that appear to ban the activity that was surging on X and is still possible on Grok."
High five, @wyden.senate.gov @markey.senate.gov and @lujan.senate.gov. This is the way.

New: Trio of Dem senators urge Apple and Google to enforce their own terms of service and ban X, Grok apps for their flood of nonconsensual sexual imagery.
I've repeatedly asked both Apple and Google about this for three days. They're completely silent, seemingly hoping the question just goes away.
I'm monitoring first awful reports of two people shot in Portland by federal law enforcement. I'll keep you updated, but Trump's deployment of federal agents in my hometown is clearly inflaming violence — and must end.
A woman was shot dead on camera and Trump’s ICE is launching a full scale coverup. Nobody is above the law. Federal agents who break the law in Minnesota, Oregon or anywhere else, must be prosecuted.
No US oil company should risk investing in Venezuela. Companies that take part in Trump's lawless takeover of Venezuela's resources should keep in mind that any American tax dollars they take to invest in a foreign country will be recovered by the next administration.
Fact check true
Ron Wyden, the single senator who actually understands technology, has repeatedly tried to address this problem (see: www.techdirt.com/2024/01/31/a...) and Congress has ignored it in favor of performative grandstanding bills that do nothing for child safety (or makes it worse!)
I wrote section 230 to protect user speech, not a company's own speech. I've long said AI chatbot outputs are not protected by 230 and that it is not a close call. Given that the Trump administration is going to the mat to protect pedophiles, states should step in to hold Musk and X accountable.
Trump risked American lives to kidnap Maduro just to have him replaced by one of Maduro's authoritarian cronies. This has nothing to do with drugs or ousting an authoritarian leader. It's a clown car of incompetence in an effort to enrich oil companies.
This is an illegal intervention in a country that poses no threat to the United States. Trump is trying to distract from the fact that he tanked our economy and kicked millions off their health care. Congressional Republicans need to rein Trump in before he gets American troops killed.
