Today’s Big Story…

President Trump defended the FBI on Truth Social after backlash from his MAGA base over Attorney General Pam Bondi’s closure of the Jeffrey Epstein case, which she said had no “client list” to release.

According to Trump, the FBI is now going “back to the basics” by focusing on street-level crime, writing in part: "We have the Greatest Law Enforcement professionals in the World, but “Politics” and Corrupt Leadership often prevented them from doing their job. That is no longer the case, and now, they have been unleashed to do their jobs, and they are doing just that."

The Epstein files have been a key issue in President Trump’s second term. While the administration promised transparency and vowed to release them, the files remain sealed. The FBI also recently ruled Epstein’s death a suicide with no foul play, prompting large swaths of skepticism. MAGA supporters directed their anger at FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino, who had previously spoken out about Epstein as private citizens but now endorse the DOJ and FBI’s conclusion that no client list exists.

The DOJ released nearly 11 hours of surveillance footage to support its finding that Epstein died by suicide in his NYC prison cell in 2019. The video shows no one entering or exiting the area outside his cell, but does not show the actual inside of Epstein’s cell. Critics noted a suspicious one-minute timestamp jump at midnight on August 10, visible in both the original and FBI-enhanced versions, which fueled further skepticism about the video's authenticity, including from Elon Musk.

Still, the DOJ is maintaining this is the conclusion of the Epstein case, writing in their released memo: “After a thorough investigation, FBI investigators concluded that Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City on August 10, 2019. This conclusion is consistent with previous findings.”

Another Big Story…

President Trump escalated trade pressure by sending letters to several world leaders announcing new “reciprocal” tariff rates, some of which are higher or lower than the April levels.

However, he eased the rollout by signing an executive action delaying all such tariffs—except those on China—until August 1. Japan’s Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba and South Korea’s President Lee Jae-myung were the first to receive the notices.

Trump also confirmed similar letters were sent to Malaysia, Kazakhstan, South Africa, Myanmar, and Laos, with some tariff rates as high as 40%. Additionally, he revealed seven more letters—sent to Tunisia, Bosnia and Herzegovina (set for a 30% tariff), Indonesia, Bangladesh, Serbia, Cambodia, and Thailand—bringing the total to 14 countries. In all the letters, Trump cited U.S. trade deficits and foreign policies he says hinder American exports. He urged the countries to avoid tariffs by manufacturing goods in the U.S.

The letters come ahead of Trump’s July 9 deadline for countries to strike trade deals or face higher tariffs. That date ends a pause on “reciprocal” tariffs, which have imposed a minimum 10% rate since April. In all 14 letters, Trump warned that any retaliatory tariffs would trigger even steeper U.S. tariffs beyond the listed rates. The White House clarified that these would be separate from existing sector-specific tariffs, such as the current 25% auto tariff, and would also apply to any future sectoral measures.

The Administration…

1. The Trump administration is ending Temporary Protected Status for Honduras and Nicaragua, moving to revoke deportation protections for thousands of illegal aliens.

2. President Trump ordered the Treasury to strictly limit access to wind and solar tax credits. Under the new GOP megabill, projects must begin construction within a year or start producing power by 2028 to qualify.

3. Ambassador Ric Grenell said he advised President Trump to withhold disaster aid from California until it addresses underlying issues.

4. President Trump said the U.S. will send “more weapons” to Ukraine, noting the country is “getting hit very hard.” His remarks follow a recent pause in some weapons shipments.

5. President Trump voiced support for former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro on Truth Social, calling him a friend facing similar post-election persecution.

6. President Trump met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House as protesters rallied against the meeting both outside and in Tel Aviv.

7. Speaking alongside Netanyahu, President Trump said he supports lasting peace with Iran but is “ready, willing, and able” to strike if threatened. He added that talks with Iran could happen within a week and warned of further military action if needed.

8. DHS pushed back against liberal media claims over the deadly Texas flash floods, saying on X that the media is spreading false narratives and emphasizing that multiple warnings were issued.

Vice President…

JD Vance’s mother, Beverly Vance Aikins, delivered a keynote speech, sharing her battle with drug addiction—detailed in Vance’s 2016 memoir Hillbilly Elegy—as inspiration for the group APALD (Association of People Against Lethal Drugs).

Congress…

The Resistance…

1. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass demanded federal agents leave a MacArthur Park immigration raid, calling the operation "unacceptable." In a Fox 11 video, she said, “They need to leave and they need to leave right now.”

2. A federal judge rejected the DOJ’s attempt to dismiss Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s lawsuit over his mistaken deportation to El Salvador, calling one motion “meritless.” She has yet to rule on his request to be transferred to federal custody in Maryland ahead of his human trafficking trial in Tennessee.

3. A shooter opened fire at a Border Patrol facility in McAllen, Texas, and was shot dead by agents and local police, according to the DHS. The incident occurred in Border Patrol’s Rio Grande Valley Sector.

4. Planned Parenthood sued the Trump administration over a provision in the Big Beautiful Bill Act that blocks it from receiving Medicaid reimbursements, arguing in a Massachusetts federal court filing that the measure unconstitutionally targets the organization.

5. Former Bush-Cheney strategist Matthew Dowd claimed on MSNBC Monday that the GOP's underfunding of government programs worsened the deadly Guadalupe River flood in central Texas.

6. Dr. Christina B. Propst, who posted that Texas flood victims “got what they voted for” and wished safety only for non-MAGA voters, is no longer with Blue Fish Pediatrics. The floods killed at least 80 people, including 28 children, with 10 girls from Camp Mystic still missing.

7. A former Houston mayoral appointee lashed out at a Texas girls camp for being "white-only" just hours after deadly flooding killed numerous campers and left many missing.

8. Former San Antonio Mayor Julián Castro criticized President Trump as a failed leader who doesn't understand government, blaming federal budget cuts and layoffs for weakening the San Angelo and San Antonio Weather Service offices’ ability to warn the public.

9. Wrestling legend Kevin Nash, a self-described “Centrist Democrat,” faced backlash after posting on X that he skipped Fourth of July celebrations and criticized Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill.”

10. CNN senior political commentator Scott Jennings warned that Elon Musk’s new third party could split the right and boost Democrats.

Your Opinions & Questions…

Sciani: ”I believed a third party could make things right. I voted for Perot. We know how that turned out. Are the supporters of a third party too young to remember what happened as a result? We still see minor party attraction eating into conservative candidate support. A really strong 3rd party will devastate conservative influence.”

47 Report: A third-party introduction to a dominant two-party system will have massive consequences. Unfortunately, as you point out, it will likely hurt conservatives and the GOP if Musk gets the America Party involved by the next midterms.

MustangPrincess3: “Why can't they just make good movies for entertainment as they were meant to be, anymore?! They have to take good stories and ruin them! I grew up with Superman as my childhood hero and was going to go see the new one in theaters but not anymore. I didn't see Batman vs Superman either. If I do watch it once it's streaming, I'll do so with the mindset of a corrupt evil people fighting against the good that's trying to save them. Even in Man of Steel and The Dark Knight they had this conflict without making it about race and politics. <Shaking my head in disgust>”

47 Report: Agreed. Plus, the new Superman looks downright terrible in terms of quality, to be frank. We are far away from the Christopher Reeve days.
