NEW: Tanner Horner, who pleaded guilty to murdering 7-year-old Athena Strand, seen on camera reacting to a woman telling him that a "seven-year-old kid" had been kidnapped. During the trial today, jurors broke down in tears after audio footage was played of Horner killing Athena after he told her to take off her shirt and said she was "really pretty." Athena repeatedly asked for her mother. "Horner is then heard asking Athena to remove her shirt, and there are several moments when she says "no" and asks for her mom. That was followed by repeated sounds of crying, screaming and banging," NBC reported. Jurors were also shown footage (below) of Horner being stopped while trying to deliver packages. He was told by a woman that the road was blocked off because a "seven-year-old kid" had been kidnapped. "Are you serious?" Horner said. Give this man the death penalty.

BREAKING: Dozens of victims of Jeffrey Epstein have filed a lawsuit against former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi, accusing her of helping conceal critical details during the earlier handling of the Epstein investigation. Leading the lawsuit is Maria Farmer—one of the first women to publicly accuse Epstein—along with a group of survivors who say they have collectively spent more than $1.1 million to pursue the case in search of accountability. The plaintiffs argue that key decisions made during the original case allowed Epstein to avoid more serious charges for years, raising troubling questions about whether influential figures helped shield him from justice. The lawsuit has quickly drawn widespread public attention and support, with many viewing it as a long-overdue effort to uncover the truth and hold powerful individuals accountable. If the case moves forward, it could reveal significant new information about how the Epstein investigation was handled—and whether opportunities for justice were deliberately missed.

DOJ demanded voter files from all 50 states. DOJ sued 31 states for refusing their demand. My law firm intervened to protect voters in those cases. DOJ is now 0-5. My firm is 5-0. Lesson: When we fight we win.

BREAKING: Megyn Kelly on MAGA: Megyn Kelly: “After 14 years inside Fox News, I’m exposing what viewers refuse to see—how the network morphed from news into a propaganda machine designed purely to cheerlead wars, worship Trump, and feed you manufactured rage instead of facts.” Truth.

Impeach RFK. He’s a danger to our health and the health of all our children.
Children in Lubbock, Texas were admitted to the hospital with liver damage. Not from measles. From vitamin A toxicity — because their parents followed RFK Jr.’s advice and gave them cod liver oil to treat measles. He is the sitting U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services. This is not the first time this has happened. In 2019, RFK Jr. traveled to Samoa and ran the same anti-vaccine campaign. Vaccination rates dropped to 31%. Five months later: 5,700 cases. 83 dead. Most of them children under 4. He called it a “natural experiment.” The Senate confirmed him as HHS Secretary anyway. yahoo.com/news/after-rfk-jr-… 🧵1/3

He raped a 12 year old girl repeatedly for years. He sexually abused a child. Trump chose him to be his “spiritual advisor”. He was found guilty and only served 6 months. He destroyed that child’s life. She will never be the same. 6 months is an atrocity.
“Trump’s former spiritual advisor released from jail after serving just 6 months for molesting a 12 year-old girl.”

Republican Chief of Police assaults disabled Black man—paraplegic in a wheelchair. "He smacked the hell out of me. And then he choked me," victim said. Man had just wheeled out of his house to ask why police were talking to wife and son. Video clearly shows unprovoked slap and chokehold by the Chief of Police—before other officers intervene. "I’m in a chair paraplegic. Can’t do anything from my belly button down," explained Danarius Williams. Chief Robert Ephlin is a well known Republican—who was even the party's county wide candidate for Sheriff. Incident occurred in Osceola, Arkansas.

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents just shot another person… and once again, they’re claiming the victim “weaponized a vehicle” to justify shooting at the windshield ELEVEN+ times. Federal agents say they were trying to arrest Carlos Ivan Mendoza Hernandez in Patterson, California… claiming he’s a gang member wanted for questioning in El Salvador. Then… like clockwork… they say he tried to run an officer over… So, they opened fire… unloading at least ELEVEN shots into a windshield. And it ended with Mendoza Hernandez in the hospital… While somehow, not a single officer was injured. Eleven bullets through a windshield isn’t “defensive”… it’s excessive until proven otherwise. At this point, the real question isn’t what happened… It’s why the official story is always the same… and why it starts to unravel the second real evidence shows up. Because that’s what keeps happening. Over and over. And when ICE and DHS get caught lying… Why does accountability just… disappear? Release the street footage. Release the body cam footage. All of it.
