Feds Issue Bombshell Warning on Trump's Attack on Our Rights
(Daily Beast) As President Trump’s primetime address to the nation on Thursday draws near, former senior FBI and intelligence officials told the Daily Beast that what he touts as a speech emphasizing the importance of “free and fair elections” will, in fact, be part of an attack on democracy itself. Trump has announced a 9 p.m. Thursday speech, demanding TV airtime—which they have yet to promise—for what he claims is a matter of national importance. But to those who have worked at the pinnacle of law enforcement, something else is afoot.

Vance wanted military helicopter to fly his son to a golf lesson: report
(The Independent) Vice President JD Vance sought last week to use a military helicopter to ferry himself and his son across Washington for a golf lesson, one of a number of allegedly unusual travel requests that has left the Republican’s security detail “fed up,” MS Now reports. The alleged travel plans aboard Marine Two were ultimately canceled due to weather, but Secret Service agents nonetheless discussed it among themselves unhappily, according to the outlet. Past vice presidents have had Secret Service agents drive their children to activities, rather than use military hardware, which can cost tens of thousands of dollars per hour to operate.
DOJ cannot provide unredacted Epstein files for New Mexico probe
(Detroit News) The U.S. Department of Justice said on Wednesday it was prohibited by law from releasing unredacted files on Jeffrey Epstein requested by New Mexico, escalating a feud with state officials investigating the late sex offender. New Mexico Attorney General Raul Torrez released a letter on Tuesday accusing the DOJ of deliberately obstructing the state's criminal probe of Epstein by failing to hand over the files. “Federal law, court orders, and privacy protections for victims and witnesses do not allow us to release millions of unredacted documents," a U.S. Justice Department spokesperson said in a statement. "We will continue to follow federal law and the court orders that are in place."
