Major Trump Donor Found in Epstein's 'Black Book'—Thomas Massie

https://www.newsweek.com/trump-jeffrey-epstein-little-black-book-thomas-massie-john-paulson-2125070

Republican Representative Thomas Massie has said billionaire John Paulson, a major donor to President Donald Trump's campaign, was in Jeffrey Epstein's "black book."

Paulson was previously named as someone in Epstein's "little black book," a contact book that was seized during investigations. Massie has raised the issue amid the backlash plaguing the Trump administration over its handling of files related to Epstein's case.

Being listed in Epstein's black book does not imply criminal conduct. While the book recorded names, phone numbers and addresses, it did not indicate the nature, frequency or legality of any contact.

A spokesperson for Paulson told Newsweek that no relationship between Paulson and Epstein "existed at any level or of any kind." They accused Massie of carrying out a "fabricated attack with no substance at all."

Newsweek has contacted the White House for comment via email.

Epstein survivors, lawmakers and the public have pressed for fuller disclosure of documents tied to the convicted sex offender to understand who may have enabled or benefited from his abuse.

On Tuesday, the House Oversight Committee examining the Epstein probe released some 34,000 documents it had received from the Department of Justice, posting them online. However, the move has done little to silence demands for a full disclosure, with Epstein's accusers saying officials were still holding back documents.

Massie said on Newsmax's Rob Schmitt Tonight that while Paulson had been named before, it was "indicative of the types of people who may be implicated or just embarrassed by a complete release of these files." The Kentucky Republican also said Paulson was one of "three billionaires right now running ads" against him.

Remember shills, these are the real polls.

Democrat Catelin Drey has flipped an open Iowa state Senate seat, adding to the party’s successes in special elections this year, Decision Desk HQ projected.

Drey defeated Republican Christopher Prosch in the race to replace the late state Sen. Rocky De Witt (R), who died in office in June from cancer. Democrats homed in on the Republican-leaning district as a pickup opportunity given their overperformance in many smaller elections through 2025.

Drey’s victory breaks a GOP supermajority in the state Senate, giving her party more power despite its minority status in the body. In particular, the extra Democratic vote, which will bring the margin in the chamber to 33 Republicans to 17 Democrats, will ensure that nominees from the governor can’t get approved on a party-line vote.

A two-thirds majority is needed for nominees to be confirmed.

The DNC celebrated Drey’s win on Tuesday night, noting that the district voted for President Trump in 2024 by more than 11 points. Martin said in a statement that Iowans are seeing Republicans as a “rubber stamp” for Trump’s agenda and want change.

“They are putting Republicans on notice and making it crystal clear: any Republican pushing Trump’s unpopular, extreme agenda has no place governing on behalf of Iowa families,” he said. “That’s why all year long, Iowans have been electing Democrats ready to fight for working Iowans. Make no mistake: when Democrats organize everywhere, we win everywhere, and today is no exception.”

The flip marks the second Iowa state Senate seat this year that Democrats won, after flipping another seat in January in a district that Trump won by more than 20 points. The party has also outperformed in other special state legislative elections throughout the year, winning in another Trump-friendly state Senate district in Pennsylvania in March.

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., facing pointed bipartisan questioning at a rancorous three-hour Senate committee hearing on Thursday, tried to defend his efforts to pull back COVID-19 vaccine recommendations and explain the turmoil he has created at federal health agencies.

Kennedy said the fired CDC director was untrustworthy, stood by his past anti-vaccine rhetoric, and disputed reports of people saying they have had difficulty getting COVID-19 shots.

Medical groups and several Democrats in Congress have called for Kennedy to be fired, and his exchanges with Democratic senators on the panel repeatedly devolved into shouting, from both sides.

But some Republican senators also expressed unease with his changes to COVID-19 policies.

The GOP senators noted that Kennedy said President Donald Trump deserved a Nobel Prize for the 2020 Operation Warp Speed initiative to quickly develop mRNA COVID-19 vaccines — and that he also had attacked the safety and continued use of those very shots.

“I can’t tell where you are on Operation Warp Speed,” said Republican North Carolina Sen. Thom Tillis.

Tillis and others asked him why the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was fired last week, less than a month into her tenure.

Kennedy said she was dishonest, and that CDC leaders who left the agency last week in support of her deserved to be fired.

He also criticized CDC recommendations during the COVID-19 pandemic tied to lockdowns and masking policies, and claimed — wrongly — that they “failed to do anything about the disease itself.”

“The people who at CDC who oversaw that process, who put masks on our children, who closed our schools, are the people who will be leaving,” Kennedy said. He later said they deserved to be fired for not doing enough to control chronic disease.

> 4chan launches legal action against Ofcom in US

> Lawyers representing controversial online forums 4chan and Kiwi Farms have filed a legal case against the UK Online Safety Act enforcer, Ofcom.

> Their legal complaint filed in a Washington DC Federal Court seeks a legal ban on the UK communications regulator enforcing or attempting to enforce the Online Safety Act against them in the US.

> "American citizens do not surrender our constitutional rights just because Ofcom sends us an e-mail," Preston Byrne of law firm Byrne & Storm said.

> Ofcom told the BBC: "We are aware of this lawsuit. Under the Online Safety Act, any service that has links with the UK now has duties to protect UK users, no matter where in the world it is based."

> A service doesn't have to be based in the UK to be subject to the act, and therefore face action from Ofcom.

> It could be enough for it to have a significant number of UK users, or to have the UK as a target market.

> But 4chan's lawyers want the US court to rule that US business with no presence in the UK are not subject to British legislation.

> The also want it to declare that the Online Safety Act is at odds with the US constitution's free speech protections.

> Lawyers for online message board 4chan recently told the BBC that Ofcom had provisionally decided to impose a £20,000 fine "with daily penalties thereafter" for failing to comply with two requests for information.

> Ofcom alleges 4chan has not complied with the act with respect to the requests for information, but has not confirmed the provisional fine.

> It has also stated that it continues to investigate 4chan over whether it is complying with Online Safety Act duties to protect its users from illegal content.

'The Air Force giving her honors is in itself a dishonor,' former Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill, said

The Air Force decided to extend military funeral honors to deceased Senior Airman Ashli Babbitt, who was shot and killed by a police officer during the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021.

The decision came after Air Force leadership during the Biden administration previously denied the request in February 2021, shortly after Babbitt was killed. The decision also comes on the heels of a wrongful death settlement reached in July, which resulted in the government paying the Babbitt family nearly $5 million.

"On behalf of the Secretary of the Air Force, I write to extend the offer for Military Funeral Honors for SrA Ashli Babbitt," stated an Aug. 15 letter from the undersecretary of the Air Force, sent to Babbitt's husband, Aaron, according to the family's legal representatives. "After reviewing the circumstances of Ashli’s death, and considering the information that has come forward since then, I am persuaded that the previous determination was incorrect."

"After reviewing the circumstances of SrA Babbitt’s death, the Air Force has offered Military Funeral Honors to SrA Babbitt’s family," an Air Force spokesperson confirmed in a statement to Fox News Digital.

Babbitt was shot and killed by a U.S. Capitol police officer as she was attempting to forcibly gain access to the Capitol chambers during the events of Jan. 6. Roughly three months later the Department of Justice announced it would not be pursuing criminal charges against the officer who shot Babbitt.

Both praise and criticism followed the news that the Air Force would be granting Babbitt her military honors, previously denied under Biden.

ORLANDO, Fla. — Florida could be on the hook for $218 million the state spent to convert a remote training airport in the Everglades into an immigration detention center dubbed " Alligator Alcatraz."

The center may soon be completely empty as a judge upheld her decision late Wednesday ordering operations to wind down indefinitely.

Shutting down the facility for the time being would cost the state $15 million to $20 million immediately, and it would cost another $15 million to $20 million to reinstall structures if Florida is allowed to reopen it, according to court filings by the state.

The Florida Division of Emergency Management will lose most of the value of the $218 million it has invested in making the airport suitable for a detention center, a state official said in court papers.

Florida signed at least $405 million in vendor contracts, AP analysis shows

Built in just a few days, the facility consists of chain-link cages surrounding large white tents filled with rows of bunk beds.

An Associated Press analysis of publicly available state spending data showed that Florida has signed at least $405 million in vendor contracts to build and operate the facility, which officials had initially estimated would cost $450 million a year to run. A previous AP review found that as of late July, the state had already allocated at least $245 million to run the site, which opened July 1.

Man famous for being retarded is BTFO again for trying to spin a mass shooting into anti-trans propaganda.
Something no one on /news/ knows anything about.

CNN host Brianna Keilar called out Sebastian Gorka, a counterterrorism aide to President Donald Trump, for inaccurate claims about mass shootings.

On Sunday, Keilar confronted Gorka after he claimed there was an "ideological connection" between incidents with transgender mass shooters, including the recent tragedy at a Catholic church in Minnesota.

"You know, 96% of attackers, when you're looking at the U.S. Secret Service National Threat Assessment Center, looking at 172 mass attacks in the U.S. between 2016 and 2020, 96% were non-trans men," Keilar noted. "So I know you're focusing on this shooter being trans. The shooter was trans, and that is certainly of note. But are you missing the bigger picture here when you zero in on that instead of more broadly these school shooters as an epidemic, and you perhaps miss the through line that connects them all?"

Gorka insisted that Keilar should focus on "mass shootings at schools, specifically Christian or Catholic schools."

"So don't conflate different data sets just to make a political point," he remarked. "There was an ideological content to this attack. That's what terrorism is."

"By CNN's count, when you look at 32 school shootings since 2020, in which you have four or more people who have been killed," Keilar pointed out. "Only three of 32 of those shootings were committed by transgender shooters."

New York police on Monday were looking for a man who threw a sex toy during a WNBA game, striking a girl in attendance, officials said.

The NYPD on Friday released a photo and a short video clip of a man wearing a "Beavis and Butt-Head" T-shirt and an Ohio State cap at the New York Liberty-Dallas Wings game last week at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

Police said that, during Tuesday's game, "an unidentified individual threw an object which struck a 12-year-old female victim in the right leg."

The search continued Monday, and a Liberty rep said the team is cooperating with police.

"All we can share right now is that there is an ongoing investigation and that we are cooperating with law enforcement," a team spokesperson said.

The incident in Brooklyn was the most recent example of someone throwing sex toys toward WNBA players over the past two weeks.

The episodes started July 29 when a sex toy landed on the floor of a Golden State Valkyries game against the Atlanta Dream in College Park, Georgia.
