So this dropped...
I find it interesting that Trump is calling for the Epstein files to be released, but the judge conveniently blocks it on a technicality. It's almost like Trump knew this would happen so is just making a show of releasing them knowing they won't be, isn't it?

It does appear that the law prevents release, but there's always a way round these things, so it's funny how that's such a brick wall, isn't it? I wouldn't put anything underhand past Trump.

Oh, shame. Set your VPN to UK and it should work. Have a look at the Snopes article, too.
Do not use a VPN. I have a static IP at the house and use it in almost every instance (as the XF folks could tell you since for at least 5 years I've had the same IP). I don't try to hide my IP or my sites visited since I don't go anywhere that I am ashamed of. The only exception is I occasionally use TOR to check Google for my site search results and that requires me to install TOR each time so not something I do regularly.

Oh well, getting around geoblocks is a valid reason though. However, it does cost money, so I wouldn't expect you to spend it just for this.

As we know, free VPNs are almost malware and fairly ineffective so are to be avoided at all costs.

Not for me. I'm not going to jump through hoops to see something on a site that they don't want me to access because of my location. I'm not that "nosey" in the end run.
Now, on my phone it is different since i use their function to "hide" my IP and it may allow me through - but I rarely use my phone for the internet other than specific applications... but on my desktop.. I have chosen to not jump through hoops. You want me to visit.. then you can accept my static IP.. you don't then that is fine also as I usually don't really care to pursue the data that much as it is not "life and death" to me.. so for those that do absolute geo-blocking.. you can KMA. Even I don't block on my site... I do use a challenge function though for certain origination points.

I really dislike geo blocking myself. Remember when they first started doing it on DVDs? That's just downright offensive.

Let's hope that the dissatisfaction with Trump in the MAGA base grows to a crescendo by the midterms, giving the Republicans a whipping.

As of late, Donald Trump's MAGA base has NOT been happy with him. From his mishandling of the Epstein files to bombing Iran, Trump seems to be backtracking on many of his campaign promises, and his support, even from high-profile names, is slipping.

A Reddit post by a MAGA voter has recently gone viral for breaking down five reasons why they are abandoning Trump and planning to vote blue in the 2026 midterms.

The White House press office went out of their way to release an official response less than 12 hours after the latest South Park episode aired. Dumbest thing they could do is acknowledge the show even aired. They go on to call it a 4th rate show but its important enough to warrant a statement from the White House? Very snowflake-like behavior.

This is a very good debunk of conspiracy theories that Trump staged the assassination attempt. I just wonder why this journalist made this a year after the event happened as the video is only 4 days old making this very old news.
