Trump Trapped in Court as Judge Probes Epstein Cover-Up Aug 24, 2026

Show notes

In breaking news, Judge Sullivan has ordered that Todd Blanche and his DOJ tell him by next week, whether they are engaged in a massive coverup about handwritten FBI interview notes of a victim who claims Trump abused her at the age of 13. Popok reports on the new filing by Katie Phang’s lawyers in the Epstein files case, which alerts the Court that Blanche’s lawyer did not tell the truth about the missing handwritten notes and that they have produced handwritten notes about EPSTEIN (but not Trump) in the past!

Show notes

Is Trump encouraging the FIFA world cup president to run for a THIRD TERM when he is prohibited from serving more than 2? Sound familiar?
