Massie Torches AG Bondi: ‘I Have No Confidence’

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) said Sunday he has no confidence in Attorney General Pam Bondi, escalating tensions over the Justice Department’s handling of sensitive document disclosures tied to Jeffrey Epstein.

Appearing on ABC’s This Week, Massie did not mince words when asked by host Martha Raddatz whether he still trusted Bondi to lead the department.

“I don’t think Pam Bondi has confidence in Pam Bondi,” Massie said. “She wasn’t confident enough to engage in anything but name-calling in the hearing. And so no, I don’t have confidence in her.”

The Kentucky congressman sharply criticized Bondi’s responses during a recent congressional hearing, particularly over questions surrounding document redactions. Massie said he pressed the attorney general on who made the decision to redact the name of Lesley Wexner from a key document but received no clear answer.

“When I asked her specifically who redacted Lesley Wexner’s name from the one document that mattered, she couldn’t give me an answer. She wouldn’t give me an answer,” Massie said. “But ultimately, it’s her who is responsible for the document production. According to our law, the attorney general. It’s not Todd Blanche, it’s not the people below them. You can assign tasks to people, but you can’t assign your responsibility.”

Massie framed the controversy as part of a broader battle with powerful interests he claims are aligned against him.

“This is about the Epstein class, the people who are funding the attacks against me,” he said. “They may or may not be implicated in these files, but they were certainly rubbing shoulders with the people who are in these files. They’re billionaires who are friends with these people. And that’s what I’m up against.”

New Administration People Visiting: Epstein’s Mail to Bill Gates After Trump’s 2016 Win

Sex offender Jeffrey Epstein invited Microsoft co-founder and billionaire Bill Gates to his island, Little Saint James, saying people from the “new administration” were visiting him. The email, sent in December 2016, seemingly indicated those from Donald Trump’s team during his first term, considering he was elected as the President of the US a month before that.

“Come to visit the island. New administration people visiting,” the email read.

Trump, who became the President of the US for the second time after defeating Democrat Kamala Harris in the 2020 elections, had earlier said that he had severed ties with Jeffrey Epstein in the early 2000s. However, it cannot be ascertained whether Epstein was indeed talking about the Trump administration.

The email exchanges are part of the fresh tranche of documents associated with Epstein and released by the US Justice Department. These also come at a time when senior members of the Trump administration are facing renewed scrutiny over their links to the sex offender. Earlier this week, US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick confirmed that he had lunch with Epstein at the latter’s island in 2012, contradicting his previous claims about severing ties with the paedophile years before his conviction.

“I did have lunch with him as I was on a boat going across on a family vacation,” Lutnick testified on Capitol Hill. “My wife was with me, as were my four children and nannies…We had lunch on the island. That is true. For an hour.” (Read more from “New Administration People Visiting: Epstein’s Mail to Bill Gates After Trump’s 2016 Win” HERE)

State Of Emergency Declared As US Region Faces Worst Drought In 25 Years Amid Hundreds Of Wildfires

Florida is currently enduring its most severe drought in 25 years, according to updated data recently released. This troubling development coincides with the Florida Forest Service (FFS) reporting a highly concerning beginning to the 2026 wildfire season Friday. Since Jan. 1, over 650 wildfires have already been documented statewide.

A state of emergency has been issued by Gov. Ron DeSantis to address both the prolonged drought and the history-making Arctic cold that impacted Florida at the start of Feb.

The emergency order suspends agricultural weight limits that enable farmers to move and harvest crops more efficiently. It also instructs the state to gather the necessary documentation to pursue federal assistance from the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Small Business Administration.

Water shortage restrictions are now in place through every one of Florida’s water management districts — there’s a total of five. Several restrictions even have strict limits on lawn irrigation.

Per the U.S. Drought Monitor, 98% of Florida has some degree of drought while 85% is classified as being in “severe drought,” the highest level since Mar. 2001. (Read more from “State Of Emergency Declared As US Region Faces Worst Drought In 25 Years Amid Hundreds Of Wildfires” HERE)

Damning Report Torpedoes Trump’s ‘Central Defense’ About Epstein Ties

A new report on Sunday torpedoed one of President Donald Trump’s “central defenses” about his ties to convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein.

Trump has often claimed that he has never been credibly accused of wrongdoing over the course of his relationship with Epstein. He has also claimed that he never knew of Epstein’s crimes, even though the recently released Epstein files include a transcript of Trump calling a local police station and telling them about “creepy” Epstein.

But a new report undermines both of those claims. Investigative political reporter Roger Sollenberger reported on Sunday that Trump was credibly accused of abusing at least two young girls, citing court records and an internal FBI slideshow that was released in the latest tranche of Epstein files. . .

The report also mentions that Trump was at least partially aware of Epstein’s crimes because of information provided by a witness who helped secure a conviction against Epstein’s accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell.

‘Quiet’ Father Allegedly Stabbed 3-Month-Old Son, Threw Him in the Snow as Part of ‘Sacrifice’

A “quiet” Pennsylvania father allegedly stabbed his baby son and tossed his tiny, injured body into the snow last week as part of a “sacrifice,” prosecutors chillingly revealed Thursday.

Michael Phillips, 44, was arrested after police responded to a call about a stabbing on Wednesday at an apartment complex in Coatesville just before 11:40 a.m., according to the Chester County District Attorney’s Office.

After arriving at the home, police discovered that Phillips had allegedly stabbed his 3-month-old son in the abdomen after the infant’s mother said he made comments about “having to sacrifice the baby” and had come at her with a knife, the DA said.

Philips allegedly tried to stab his baby son several times, but only managed to strike him once, the mother told police.

After the father launched the alleged freak assault, the terrified mother grabbed the injured child and her 9-year-old son to flee the residence, prosecutors added. (Read more from “‘Quiet’ Father Allegedly Stabbed 3-Month-Old Son, Threw Him in the Snow as Part of ‘Sacrifice’” HERE)

Trans Shooter ‘Roberta’ Opens Fire at Rhode Island Ice Rink, Shoots Family Before Turning Gun on Self

A tragic shooting at a Rhode Island ice rink has left a family shattered after a transgender gunman—who reportedly went by the name “Roberta”—allegedly opened fire during a high school hockey game, killing his wife and wounding his children before taking his own life.

According to Pawtucket Police Chief Tina Goncalves, the suspect, identified as 56-year-old Robert Dorgan, had transitioned years earlier and was known to go by “Roberta.”

Authorities say the deadly incident unfolded at the Dennis M. Lynch Arena and stemmed from what investigators describe as a domestic violence situation that escalated into a murder-suicide.

At least one person was killed and multiple others were injured when shots rang out inside the arena, sending families scrambling for safety during the youth sporting event.

A source cited by FOX News indicated the gunman fatally shot his wife and wounded two of his children before turning the firearm on himself. He later died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

WPRI reported that Dorgan had publicly changed his gender identification several years ago. In 2020, he reportedly went to the North Providence Police Department and stated that he had recently undergone gender-reassignment surgery. According to reports at the time, Dorgan claimed his father-in-law wanted him out of the family home following the surgery.

Court records show that around the same period Dorgan allegedly announced his gender transition, his wife filed for divorce. The filing cited “gender reassignment surgery” as well as “narcissistic + personality disorder traits.”

Investigators have not yet released additional details about what led to the shooting inside the crowded arena, but authorities indicated early findings suggest the violence was targeted and domestic in nature rather than a random act.

REPORT: Trans Wrestler Accused of Assaulting Female Wrestler Leaves Tournament

A transgender-identifying wrestler who has been accused of assaulting a female wrestler in December allegedly dropped out of a state tournament, according to a report.

“BREAKING: The biological boy accused of assaulting wrestler Kallie Keeler has just been REMOVED from the bracket for the state tournament,” Brandi Kruse wrote in a post on X. “Unclear who made the call. He was replaced by the 8th-place finisher from the qualifying tournament, an actual girl. HUGE VICTORY!”

Breitbart News reported on Friday that the Department of Education started an investigation after 16-year-old Kallie Keeler, who attends Rogers High School, located in Puyallup, Washington, claimed a biological boy allegedly “tried to push his fingers into her vagina” during a match:

Kallie Keeler, 16, a sophomore wrestler at Rogers High School in Puyallup, Washington, claims that she was assaulted during a December 6 girls wrestling match against Emerald Ridge High School when her opponent — a teen boy who identifies as a girl — tried to push his fingers into her vagina during competition.

“I was just kind of like, what? What the heck?” a shocked Keeler exclaimed. “I didn’t really know what to do or how to handle that situation. I just wanted the match to be over.”

NBC Apologizes for Calling Female Skier ‘She’

The Olympic skier at the center of a “misgendering” scandal has not publicly claimed to be offended. But one media outlet is apologizing profusely anyway.

Swedish skier Elis Lundholm competed in freestyle skiing women’s moguls on Wednesday but believes she is a man.

According to the Associated Press, Lundholm was “assigned female at birth and identifies as a man.”

However, the Swedish ski team also told the outlet the athlete does not take any hormonal treatments and has not had any surgeries.

While Lundholm finished 25th in the competition, NBC accidentally ensured her broader coverage by allegedly misgendering her. Website Outsports covered the apparent outrage, relaying the remarks from the NBC/Peacock color commentator during the event. (Read more from “NBC Apologizes for Calling Female Skier ‘She’” HERE)

Father Goes Nuclear on School Board After Teachers Sent His Son to ICE Protest

A father who posted a video of himself pulling his son out of a “walkout” protesting operations by United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) tore into the Highline School Board in Washington state on Wednesday.

Hundreds of students in the Seattle-area school district took part in the Feb. 2 walkout, some of whose parents backed the protest, according to the Seattle Times. Vance Glawe, who drove to the protest to pull his son, a seventh-grade student at Cascade Middle School, out of the event, confronted members of the school board with fiery remarks during his two-minute address.

“My name is Vance Glawe and on the afternoon of February 2, 2026, my 14 year old child called me. He was not at school. He was not sick. He was in the middle of White Center, Washington, in the middle of a protest that was organized for his middle school,” Glawe told the members of the board during their Wednesday meeting in video that went viral when it was posted on X by LibsofTikTok.

Glawe, who is a content creator who goes by “Modern Ragnar 1.0” on multiple social media sites, was dressed in a suit as he addressed the board, before claiming the board violated state law, and he declared his intention to sue.

“RCW 28A 600035, by allowing them to leave and under Initiative 2081, the parental Bill of Rights, I have the right to know where my child goes,” Glawe said. “That was taken from me. I was not given notice. I was not given an email. I was not given a call. You exposed him to real danger. That’s neglect and that’s endangerment.” (Read more from “Father Goes Nuclear on School Board After Teachers Sent His Son to ICE Protest” HERE)

Corey Lewandowski Fired Pilot for Leaving Kristi Noem’s Blanket on Plane as Sources Say Pair ‘Spending Nights Regularly’ Together

Corey Lewandowski fired a Coast Guard pilot for leaving Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s blanket on a plane — but was forced to rehire them upon realizing there was nobody else to fly the party home, according to a stunning new report.

Lewandowski, an unpaid special government employee who unofficially acts as chief of staff for Noem — with whom he’s had a years-long affair — has overseen a reign of terror over department workers since President Trump took office last year.

According to the Wall Street Journal, Noem had to switch planes during an official trip due to a maintenance issue, but her blanket was not moved to the replacement aircraft.

Lewandowski fired the pilot and told them to find a commercial flight home when they reached their destination, only to reinstate them due to the lack of a backup.

The report did not specify when or where the incident occurred.

A spokesperson for DHS did not deny the story to the Journal, but said Noem has “made personnel decisions to deliver excellence.” (Read more from “Corey Lewandowski Fired Pilot for Leaving Kristi Noem’s Blanket on Plane as Sources Say Pair ‘Spending Nights Regularly’ Together” HERE)
