"It's All With Little Kids."

     Over the years, I've written scathing posts about Jimmy O'Keefe. You might remember that O'Keefe is a right wing operative famous for his misleading, deceptive videos. Pretending as if he was dressed in a pimp costume with co-conspirator Hannah Giles, they'd filmed an ACORN employee giving them advice on how to avoid paying taxes. ACORN had smelled a rat and punked them.
     The right wing outrage was fierce. Congress suspended funding for ACORN. Bobby Jindal also suspended funding for ACORN despite Louisiana providing no funding for it. Right wingers hated ACORN because they helped register the "wrong" people to vote, i.e. Democratic voters. O'Keefe, and Brietbart, used deceptively-edited videos to give the right wing just the proper amount of ginned up outrage to defund ACORN.
     Then O'Keefe went to prison for trying to bug then Senator Mary Landrieu's senate office. I had a lot of fun with that back then. Then he got kicked out of the Project Veritas that he'd founded. I had fun with that, too.
     But one is perplexed as to how to approach this.
     O'Keefe is still using guerilla journalism, surreptitiously filming people in the hopes of getting them to make embarrassing admissions. Except this time, he's not targeting liberals, but people like Pam Bondi. That's Pam Bondi, as in the AG of the United States. Apparently, O'Keefe, in the greatest 180 since Scrooge and the Grinch, has somehow found his inner journalist and is trolling the administration as regards the Epstein Files.
     In other words, Jimmy O'Keefe has successfully transformed himself from a useless idiot to a useful idiot.
     First, some context: Last year, O'Keefe sent an operative to interview Pam Bondi, except Bondi didn't know she was being interviewed. They met at a restaurant on April 28, 2025 an Bondi told her some of what she knew about the Epstein files, which was at stark odds with what she was telling the American people.
     At one point, Bondi made the startling admission that there were tens of thousands of videos of little kids being abused by Epstein and other powerful men. Now, who knows what Bondi was thinking in making such an admission to anyone, let alone a random stranger in a restaurant. And I'm still stupefied as to why this didn't make a bigger wave than it had when O'Keefe released it last year.
     But the video is getting a second set of legs in the wake of an accusation by an Air Force veteran named Jake Broe who'd alleged that Trump is using those same Epstein files to blackmail the people in those videos, which is perfectly in keeping with Trump's mobster mentality.
     That's right. The guy who's mentioned in the Epstein files far more than anyone else (over 38,000 times just in the new batch and counting) is using them to blackmail other men. And Trump can do that because his personal law firm formerly known as the DOJ has complete control of those files, millions of which the DOJ had said they would never release (in violation of federal law).
      So, in case you're still wondering how Trump got rich scumbags to pony up at least $400,000,000 for his bloated ballroom, wonder no more.

If Trump isn't going to prison in the future, his lackeys had better be.
