The Daily Beans Hot Tips For Loomer (feat. Samantha Michaels)
Wednesday, August 6th, 2025
Today, survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell file letters with the court over the possible release of grand jury transcripts; ICE floated the idea of paying bounties for deportations but rescinded the idea after journalists reached out for comment; FEMA floated the idea of denying emergency preparedness grants to states that boycott Israeli companies but quickly rescinded that as well; the White House is preparing an order to punish banks that refuse to work with fascist;, Texas Republicans fail again to move forward with redistricting after Democrats protest by denying them a quorum; Trump caves on requiring Rupert Murdoch to be deposed early in his lawsuit against the WSJ; Jim Comer has issued subpoenas in the Epstein files case; the DOJ has a recording of the two day witness tampering session between Ghislaine Maxwell and Todd Blanche; for the first time in the Culinary Union’s 90-year history, all major casinos on the Las Vegas Strip are unionized; and Allison and Dana deliver the good news.
