DOJ Releases 'All' Epstein Files, 300+ Names Listed

Center 37%
Right 34%
What happened: Attorney General Pam Bondi sent Congress a six-page letter yesterday defending redactions in the newly released Epstein files, including a list of over 300 government officials and prominent figures whose names appear in the documents. The list includes President Trump, former Presidents Obama and Biden, Bill Gates, Elon Musk, and Prince Harry, among others, though appearance does not indicate wrongdoing.
Why it matters: The release follows the Epstein Files Transparency Act and has already prompted resignations, closed charities, and congressional scrutiny over whether the DOJ improperly redacted or removed important documents. Lawmakers from both parties are demanding access to specific files the DOJ previously published but has since taken down, including a photo showing Epstein with boxes labeled 'CIA.'

Russia Investigates Tanker Crash at Key Baltic Oil Port
Center 100%
What happened: The tanker Tony collided with a berth wall at Ust-Luga port yesterday while arriving to load petroleum products, damaging the berth wall and a port crane. Russian prosecutors launched an investigation today, reporting no injuries or oil spills from the incident.
Why it matters: Ust-Luga is a crucial port for Russia's crude oil exports via the Baltic Sea, making infrastructure damage potentially disruptive to oil export logistics. While no spill occurred, the damaged berth and crane could affect port operations at this strategic energy hub.

NATO Officials Says Europe Has Run Out of Air Defense Missiles for Ukraine
Left 57%
Right 43%
What happened: German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius announced yesterday that Germany and many European NATO allies have exhausted their air-defense stockpiles after nearly four years of transfers to Ukraine. Germany has sent over one-third of its Patriot systems and multiple IRIS-T batteries, contributing more than €17 billion in military aid since 2022, but cannot send more due to training, maintenance and NATO obligations.
Why it matters: Ukraine's ability to defend critical infrastructure is severely weakened as Russian attacks on energy facilities have intensified, with 217 strikes since the start of 2026. Last month, Patriot systems stood empty during Russian ballistic missile strikes on power plants, and NATO is now appealing globally for missiles as Europe struggles to compensate for reduced US military assistance.

Corporate-Funded Nonprofit Has Paid $72K for Newsom's Travel

What happened: Governor Gavin Newsom's official travel, including recent trips to Italy, Mexico City, Brazil, Switzerland, and Germany, is paid for by the California State Protocol Foundation, a nonprofit funded primarily by corporate donations from unions, healthcare companies, and organizations with business before the state. The foundation reported $1.3 million in revenue in 2024 and covered over $13,000 for Newsom's Vatican trip and nearly $4,000 for his Mexico City visit.
Why it matters: The arrangement raises transparency and conflict-of-interest concerns because foundation donors include powerful corporations, unions, and healthcare companies with significant financial stakes in state policy decisions. Critics argue this gives corporate funders increased influence over state government, while the foundation's board members are appointed by Newsom himself and disclosure practices remain vague.

Marine Allowed to Keep Afghan Orphan Despite Disputed Adoption

What happened: The Virginia Supreme Court ruled that U.S. Marine Joshua Mast and his wife will keep an Afghan war orphan they adopted in December 2020, reversing lower court decisions. Four justices cited Virginia's six-month finality law that bars adoption challenges, even if obtained through flawed proceedings, while four dissenting justices criticized the adoption process.
Why it matters: The decision ends a yearslong legal battle but raises concerns about international law and child welfare protections. The Justice Department warned the case could be viewed as endorsing international child abduction, potentially threatening security agreements and endangering U.S. troops overseas through extremist propaganda.
