Johnson breaks with Trump, calls for DOJ to release Epstein files
That SOB was whipping up votes against releasing the information. I hate him almost as much as his boss. -

Will the Epstein saga tear MAGA apart?
Do yourself a favor and get back to the subject, please. Your Master Fool has made his claim and you and you agree it is time to hold those accountable responsible. To refresh your faded memory here is whom he claims are responsible! US President Donald Trump on Tuesday claimed that the Jeffrey Epstein Files were 'made up' by his democratic predecessors. In his latest remarks mid the row over the disgraced financier's case, Trump stated that the files were made up by former presidents Obama, Joe Biden and former FBI director James Comey as part of a smear campaign against him. -

US passport renewal
Mine was over a month. Also note the DEEP STAFF CUTS at the State Department had previously been stalled by court actions but they have now recently actually happened. That includes embassy staff and in the US. Therefore it would not be at all surprising if the turnaround times increase. -

Secret Afghan Evacuation Exposed After 23-Month Gag Order Lifted
A secret UK government operation to rescue tens of thousands of Afghans put at risk by a catastrophic military data breach has finally come to light—nearly two years after ministers imposed an extraordinary news blackout. Launched under the codename Operation Rubific, the mission began after the Ministry of Defence lost a classified database in 2023 containing details of Afghans who had applied for sanctuary in Britain. The government admitted the breach placed around 100,000 lives at risk, as well as compromising British personnel. In the immediate aftermath, the Daily Mail discovered the story—only to be silenced by a draconian super-injunction. Now, with the order lifted, it can be revealed that the government has been quietly smuggling Afghans out of the country on unmarked charter flights, bringing them to the UK without public or parliamentary knowledge. So far, at least 18,500 people have arrived, with 23,900 in total expected. They are being housed in Ministry of Defence properties and hotels while awaiting permanent accommodation. The rest—over 70,000—will be left behind after the scheme’s abrupt closure this week. The project, said to cost up to £7 billion according to secret court hearings, was approved last October. But Defence Secretary John Healey yesterday told Parliament the actual cost is expected to be between £400 million and £850 million—far below the figures presented in court. He also claimed only 6,900 people are being rescued due to the data breach, not the tens of thousands noted in official documents. The discrepancy has triggered fresh outrage, with critics accusing ministers of misleading the public and avoiding scrutiny. There is also the threat of a new legal and financial storm: hundreds of those evacuated are reportedly planning to sue the UK government for the original data leak—potentially adding another £1 billion in compensation to the operation’s total bill. As calls grow for full transparency, pressure is mounting on ministers to explain how such a vast operation was kept hidden—and why taxpayers were left in the dark for nearly two years.
