Trump's D.C. takeover is misdirection from Epstein
Los Angeles Times
|August 16, 2025
Atry. GEN. PAM Bondi's decision to appoint an “emergency police commissioner” in Washington is just the latest attempt to change an increasingly uncomfortable subject for the White House.

A FEDERAL AGENT at the scene of an arrest outside New York Avenue Presbyterian Church on Thursday in Washington.
Last month President Trump told the American people he was never briefed on the files regarding Jeffrey Epstein, who in 2019 was charged with sex trafficking minors. We now know that Bondi told the president in May that his name appeared multiple times in those files, which traced Epstein’s operation back to the mid-1990s.
So — either you believe a city experiencing a 30-year low in crime is suddenly in need of an emergency police commissioner or you agree with Joe Rogan’s assessment: This administration is gaslighting the public regarding those files.
Now there will be pundits who will try to say Republicans are too focused on kitchen table issues to care about the Epstein controversy.
If only that were true.

Fringe on right twists Charlie Kirk's memory
IS IT REALLY too much to ask that a murdered young man be given the dignity of a proper burial before bad-faith opportunists attempt to posthumously rewrite his legacy to better serve their own nefarious ends? Is it really too much to ask that a murdered young man’s family and friends — to say nothing of the countless individuals whose lives the young man touched and inspired — be allowed to mourn in peace, without having to fend off charlatans seeking to hijack his memory to advance their pet crusades?
