    The cat's out of the bag, guys: my new Epstein book, ANOTHER WONDERFUL SECRET, is now available. amazon.com/dp/B0H2RPKJ85 I did a little Q&A about the Q&A book, in which I answer my own burning questions: gregolear.substack.com/p/another-wond…

    Wow. The PA announcer at the Heat-Celtics game, after the obligatory moment of silence for the shooting victims, urged people to call Congress and demand common sense gun legislation. Crowd roared in approval. Thanks @NBA.

    Alabama had not lost a home game in four years, winning 31 straight. Then Trump came, and they cheered him, and they lost. #ETTD

    Trump is a Russian asset, a mob money launderer installed by his mob whoremasters to sow chaos and weaken the US & our allies. EVERY SINGLE THING HE’S DONE since taking office is to achieve those purposes—that and to enrich himself personally. [THREAD]

    When he is gone, Trump deserves what the Romans gave to imperial traitors: damnatio memoriae. Nothing named after him, no presidential library, none of the perquisites given to past office-holders. Just shame and silence. #1863

    Joe Biden should take the oath of office at Blair House & get to work promptly at 12:01. We don’t need pomp & speeches. We need immediate, decisive action. This is a rudderless nation on the brink. Every minute counts.

    Roman Emperors were all-powerful, too—until the elite Praetorian Guard decided they weren't. Caligula was slain by his own bodyguards. So were Commodus, Caracalla, and Elagabalus. Same with Aurelian, Probus and Gordian III. Sic semper tyrannis.

    Please Lord let someone teach Trump how to pronounce "Niger" before he starts talking about it.

    I'll say it again: once we show a willingness to fine/jail someone for ignoring a subpoena, or 86 someone for banging on the table when a witness is speaking, or arrest someone for comprising a SCIF, they WILL stop. They're cowards.

    EVOLUTION OF A TREASON DEFENSE The whistleblower lied. The whistleblower is a spy. The whistleblower is a Democract. We did it, sure, but to fight corruption. We do this w/ALL hostile foreign powers. Mike Pence was more involved than I was. Rick Perry made me do it.

    Lesson #1: Never go Full Devin Nunes. Elise Stefanik is now an object lesson for any other GOP who might get the bright idea to pipe up and start flinging feces in the hallowed House chamber. My latest piece (a short one, this time):

    Trump's tax audit has outlasted his presidency.
