FBI and Secret Service Stonewalling

  • 🏛️ Both the FBI and Secret Service have refused to cooperate with congressional investigations, withholding thousands of documents and interviews.

Whistleblower Allegations and Cover-up

  • 🧹 There are allegations of a cover-up, including the FBI powerwashing a rooftop at the scene less than 24 hours after the incident and the assassin being cremated without family knowledge.
  • 🕵️ The consistent stonewalling from the FBI and Secret Service points to a desire to avoid accountability and scrutiny of their actions.

Ed Martin Nomination and Senate Politics

  • 🧑‍⚖️ Senator Hawley expresses disappointment that Ed Martin's nomination for US Attorney was pulled by President Trump due to a lack of support in the Senate.
  • ⚖️ Hawley argues that Martin, who defended January 6th defendants, should have received a fair vote, emphasizing the importance of the rule of law.
  • 📉 The withdrawal of Martin's nomination may signal difficulties for future Trump nominees in the Senate.

Epstein Information and Transparency
