Trump threatening members of Congress not to sign the Epstein files discharge petition saying it would be a “hostile act” against him is definitely something an innocent person would do. And scheduling a military flyover in the middle of the survivor press conference is also totally normal behavior.

As concerns that Trump could be deploying National Guard troops as a test run for future election interference, we take a look at one law that will impact stationing federal troops at the polls themselves. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Trump murdered 11 civilians, whether they were involved in organized crime or not, doesn't take away their human rights. Trump murdered those people and released the video to boast about it. It's not law enforcement or legal military action, it is simply premeditated murder.

If it’s under Title 32 authority, the Texas guard remains under state control. That would mean that one state is deploying armed forces into the territory of a non-consenting state. And that’d clearly be a violation of the principle that states are co-equal, territorially limited sovereigns.

🧵 Survivors of Epstein’s abuse are done being silenced. Tomorrow they speak, not just of Epstein, but of the powerful men who thought they were untouchable. Ro Khanna confirmed even Marjorie Taylor Greene will be there. That tells you everything: this fight is bigger than parties or politics.

Democrats just MASSIVELY overperformed in 2 Florida special elections. House 40: Harris +35 → RaShon Young +50 (75–25). Senate 15: Harris +23 → Lavon Bracy Davis +45 (73–27). That’s 15- and 22-point swings toward Democrats.

When President Trump used 32 U.S.C. § 502(f)(2) in 2020, that was to have out-of-state National Guard troops sent to D.C.—which has no sovereignty of its own. Sending the un-federalized TX National Guard into IL without the latter’s consent raises *serious* Article IV problems that 2020 … didn’t.
