Former Vice President Mike Pence has called for the Trump administration to release all of the Epstein files.
Pence made the statement during an interview with CBS News correspondent Major Garrett, when he was asked his thoughts on the Trump administration’s handling of the Epstein files.
Pence stated, “I think the time has come for the administration to release all of the files regarding Jeffrey Epstein’s investigation and prosecution.”
He added, “It’s important that we protect the names of the victims. They should be excluded from any disclosure.”
“Anyone who participated or was associated with this despicable man ought to be held up to public scrutiny,” concluded Pence.

Former Vice President Mike Pence on Wednesday called on the Trump administration to release all records related to Jeffrey Epstein’s prosecution and alleged co-conspirators, saying “the time has come” for transparency while emphasizing that the names of victims should be protected.
“I think the time has come for the administration to release all of the files regarding Jeffrey Epstein’s investigation and prosecution,” Pence said in an interview with CBS News chief Washington correspondent Major Garrett. “It’s important that we protect the names of the victims. They should be excluded from any disclosure.”
His remarks come as President Trump has taken a sharply different tone. In the Oval Office on Wednesday, Mr. Trump dismissed the scrutiny surrounding Epstein’s associates as politically motivated. “It’s a big hoax,” Mr. Trump said. “It’s started by Democrats. It’s been run by the Democrats for four years.” He claimed the matter was being pushed by “some stupid Republicans” doing Democrats’ work.
In a Truth Social post earlier in the day, Mr. Trump wrote that the “Jeffrey Epstein Hoax” is being used by “past supporters” who had been “conned by the Lunatic Left” and declared, “I don’t want their support anymore.”
While Mike Pence has spoken up about releasing the Epstein files, Vice President JD Vance has been notably silent on the subject since President Trump has called it a Democrat hoax.
In November of last year, while on comedian Theo Von’s podcast, JD Vance was quite vocal on the Epstein files and stated, “Seriously, we need to release the Epstein list.”
Born to Revolution: The “Red Diaper Baby” Roots of Zohran Mamdani and Today’s Leading Democrats
July 17, 2025
The term “Red Diaper Baby” refers to children raised by parents dedicated to the Communist Party USA (CPUSA) or other radical leftist movements. “Red” denotes communism, while “diaper baby” emphasizes early exposure to ideological indoctrination.
These children are often immersed from a young age in socialist, anti-American, and Marxist worldviews, frequently attending union rallies, radical schools, or political protests alongside their activist parents.
Today, the term “Red Diaper Baby” has become a relevant lens for examining the intergenerational transmission of radical ideology within the Democratic Party’s leadership, many of whom have been molded by beliefs of radical parental figures. Before examining the case of Zohran Mamdani, let’s look at a few key figures.
Kamala Harris: Kamala’s father, Donald Harris, is a self-described Marxist economist who taught at Stanford University and has frequently critiqued capitalism in support of democratic socialism.
Donald Harris has long critiqued free market systems and praised socialist alternatives. In his 1978 book, Capital Accumulation and Income Distribution, dedicated to Kamala, Harris argued that Marx’s model “remains today as a powerful basis” for analyzing the growth dynamics of capitalist economies.

Barack Obama: In his best-selling memoir Dreams from My Father, Barack Obama describes his childhood mentorship under Frank Marshall Davis, a card-carrying CPUSA member and one of the first “Black Bolsheviks” in 1930s Chicago.
In the 1940s, Davis was sent to Hawaii by COMINTERN to organize a dockworkers strike aimed at expelling the U.S. navy from Hawaii – a move designed to open up Southeast Asia to Soviet expansion.
Davis became a journalist for the communist newspaper The Honolulu Record in Hawaii. Davis was later subpoenaed by the House Un-American Activities Committee, where he invoked the Fifth Amendment.
In my 2012 documentary Dreams from My Real Father, I presented extensive evidence that Davis, whom Obama resembles to a tee, was not only Obama’s ideological mentor but also his biological father.
Pete Buttigieg: Buttigieg’s father, Joseph Buttigieg, was a Marxist professor of English at the University of Notre Dame. Joseph Buttigieg was a leading promotor of Antonio Gramsci, the Italian communist whose theories of cultural hegemony made him a founding figure in Western Marxist theory. Gramsci argued Marxists could achieve power by reshaping cultural norms and values.
Joseph Buttigieg founded the International Gramsci Society and translated Gramsci’s work, The Prison Notebooks, making Gramsci’s Marxist theories widely accessible and cementing Buttigieg’s status as a key figure in disseminating Gramscian Marxism in the United States.
Rep. Jamie Raskin: Raskin’s father Marcus Raskin co‑founded the Institute for Policy Studies, a prominent left‑progressive think thank that advocated for redistribution of wealth and anti-capitalist policies during the Cold War and Vietnam eras. He called for the transformation of capitalism and U.S. global power through nonviolent revolution. Raskin supported many socialist-aligned global movements, particularly in Latin America, and advocated for the term “radical democracy” over “communism” to make communism more acceptable.
David Axelrod: The long-time Obama advisor’s radical political roots can be traced back to his mother, Myril Axelrod, who worked as a journalist for PM, a progressive communist New York City newspaper that operated from 1940 to 1948. PM was known for its explicitly pro-labor and staunchly leftist editorial stance. Axelrod became a key architect of Obama’s rise to power, helping to craft his US senate and presidential campaigns.
Zohran Mamdani: Zohran’s father, Mahmood Mamdani, is a Columbia University professor whose scholarship revolves around Marxist and anti-colonial theory. Mamdani has praised Frantz Fanon’s theories of decolonization, racial identity, and revolutionary violence. His analysis of state power, violence, and identity politics follows a historical materialist approach – an intellectual offshoot of Marxism. Mamdani’s book, Good Muslim, Bad Muslim, which he dedicated to Zohran, critiques the “war on terror” as a racialized, imperialist project. The book is described as “a brilliant look at the rise of political Islam”. Active in Pan-African and Third World solidarity movements, Mamdani has offered sympathetic critiques of leftist regimes in Africa.
Children of radical leftist parents – the “Red Diaper Babies” – are typically raised in households where anti-capitalism, anti-Americanism, and class struggle are not only discussed but revered as moral imperatives.
Ideological conformity in these homes is often non-negotiable, and deviation can result in emotional withdrawal of affection by parents. As a result, “Red Diaper Baby” children may internalize the idea that parental love and approval depend on radical political ideology and loyalty to Marxist ideas.
As adults, history shows that many “Red Diaper Babies” feel compelled to continue their parent’s ideological mission, becoming progressive leaders, academics, or activists.
Some are driven by the need to earn validation from their radical parents, while others may be driven by guilt over abandoning the cause. In both cases, the psychological impact of growing up under radical ideological pressures stifles any independent thought.
Today, the influence of “Red Diaper Baby” legacies is an unmistakably presence in the Democratic Party’s most visible figures, and continues to expand with Zohran Mamdani’s candidacy for mayor of New York City.
Garland Favorito and VoterGA Appeal Inexplicable Dismissal of Curling vs. Raffensperger Election Ruling
July 17, 2025
A court drawing of J. Alex Halderman hacking a Dominion Voting Tabulator in court in Georgia on January 19, 2023 using only a pen!
The 8-year-long federal lawsuit seeking to ban voting systems in the State of Georgia that store a voter’s intent on a QR code rather than human-verifiable text ended in April.
Judge Amy Totenberg issued her ruling over a year after the trial concluded, determining that “the Court lacks jurisdiction to consider the merits of Plaintiffs’ claims.”
The Gateway Pundit covered this trial from Day 1 in court, witnessing several egregious manipulations of the voting system demonstrated live and on the record in the courtroom.
University of Michigan computer science professor Dr. J. Alex Halderman successfully hacked the Dominion ICX system in court using a BIC pen in one hack and tools you can purchase on Amazon for several other hacks.
The hacks resulted in the ballots printing human-readable text that were inconsistent with the voter's intent. In other words, if you voted for Candidate A, the hack would cause the ballot to print from the ballot marking device showing a vote for Candidate B. The QR code would also record the vote as a vote for Candidate B.
One thing is certainly clear following the decision - How on earth did this case progress for eight years, a 17-day trial, and a 14-month long lull from Judge Totenberg in rendering a decision?
BREAKING:
After an 8 year-long battle in Federal courts, spanning the two separate voting systems (Diebold and Dominion), Federal Judge Amy Totenberg has DISMISSED the Curling v Raffensperger case for "lacking jurisdiction".
The Curling v. Raffensperger case has been DISMISSED after 8 long years! Judge took 14 months to write an order dismissing it on standing—a threshold issue. Unreal.https://t.co/AE0g4T9gSupic.twitter.com/SjCXy9oMmG
But, this case is not yet over.
Last week Garland Favorito and VoterGA last week appealed the inexplicable dismissal of Curling vs. Raffensperger by far left Judge Amy Totenberg.
ATLANTA, GA, JULY 10, 2025 – VoterGA co-founder Ricardo Davis yesterday appealed an inexplicable U.S. District Court dismissal of Plaintiffs claims in the case known as Curling v. Raffensperger. The case involves the question of whether or not Georgia’s voting system is constitutionally deficient. Judge Amy Totenberg abruptly ruled on March 31, 2025, that all plaintiffs, including Davis, no longer had standing to pursue their claims.
Federal courts have made numerous rulings in the Plaintiffs’ favor over the life of the case which originated in 2017. Rulings that confirmed the Plaintiffs’ standing include:
An 11th Circuit Court of Appeals denial on February 7, 2019, of a challenge to all Plaintiffs’ standing;
Totenberg’s 37-page analysis confirming Plaintiffs’ standing in an October 11, 2023 order that initiated a three-week trial in January 2024.
Davis heard about the dismissal the next day and said: “I thought it was an April Fool’s joke”. He added: “But more unprecedented was the way I was prevented before and during trial from presenting my case. The court rejected my original attorney and did not allow me to call any witnesses. Even the Defendants agreed I was entitled to the attorney of my choice.”
The Davis appeal counters Totenberg’s decision that Plaintiffs’ claims were speculative and did not represent a cognizable injury to a legally protected interest with three basic arguments:
The court erred in finding Plaintiffs no longer had standing since they had no change in status over the 7-year life of the case and standing was already determined years earlier;
Davis presented legally cognizable injuries to justify pursuing his claims such as inaccurate election results, system malfunctions and negligence by the Defendants;
The court abused its discretion by denying Davis the attorney of his choice, the ability to call rebuttal witnesses and previously deposed witnesses, to fully question Defendant witnesses and Plaintiffs’ experts and to designate deposition transcripts for the record.
Attorney David Oles, who argued valiantly for Davis, explained: “Ricardo Davis tried for seven years to show evidence of real problems in the Dominion Voting System. He was denied his day in court when that evidence was excluded.” Co-founder Garland Favorito, who attended trial every day as advisor to Davis, added: “It was the most judicially dishonest decision I have ever seen”.
VoterGA has four other active election cases involving Georgia’s 2020 and 2022 elections.
VoterGA is a non-partisan, 501(c)3 registered non-profit organization created by a coalition of citizens working to restore election integrity in Georgia. We advocate for independently verifiable, auditable, recount capable, transparent and tamper proof elections.
Growing Insecurity in New York City Subway
July 17, 2025
The public transportation system in New York City is vital for the daily lives of millions of residents. However, the rising insecurity in the subway is causing fear and concern among the population. While New Yorkers suffer the consequences, the Democratic government insists on manipulating the numbers and downplaying the severity of the problem, delaying the necessary actions to guarantee passenger safety.
It is time to recognize the reality: crime in the subway has increased, and only with real commitment and decisive actions can we restore the public’s trust.
Whoops: David Hogg’s First PAC-Backed Primary Candidate Goes Down in Flames
July 17, 2025
Tuesday gave us a preview of ex-Democratic National Committee Vice Chair David Hogg’s plan to meddle in the party’s primaries to get more young, far-left activists involved.
TL;DR: If early returns are any indication, this wasn’t worth ruining his DNC gig over.
With 77 percent of the vote counted as of Wednesday morning, Adelita Grijalva — the daughter of the Arizona Rep. Raúl Grijalva, whose death sparked the special election — had 62 percent of the vote, according to Associated Press figures.
Given that Arizona’s 7th Congressional District is as deep blue as they come, the September general election is merely a formality.
“This is a victory not for me, but for our community and the progressive movement my dad started in Southern Arizona more than 50 years ago,” Grijalva said in a statement after the victory.
However, the real takeaway could best be summed up by The Washington Post, which called it “the Mamdani sequel that wasn’t.”
“Foxx, who had appeared to gain a bit of momentum in recent weeks, left some Democrats wondering if she could pull off a surprise win like Mamdani,” the Post noted.
“But the antiestablishment message that Mamdani deployed in New York was harder for Grijalva’s opponents to replicate given her support from many of the same liberal groups and leaders who backed Mamdani, and the fact that she had not held prior federal office.”
Indeed, Foxx’s main qualification came from being a hashtag activist on Instagram, particularly when it came to the right to abort babies; she’d gone viral in her teens for confronting then-Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake and has never given up the spotlight on left-bubble social media.
This was enough to convince Hogg — whose plan to spend $20 million to primary older establishment Democrats in blue seats is suspected by many to be the reason why the DNC chose to oust him on procedural grounds — to back the 25-year-old Foxx in what seemed to be a pilot run.
“Deja Foxx has been holding Republicans’ and career politicians’ feet to the fire since she was 15 years old. She’s an organizer who has carved her own path after experiencing homelessness and working at a gas station — and she is ready to fight for [Tucson], her hometown,” Hogg said in his endorsement earlier this month.
“Deja knows people like her haven’t been seen in politics, and she has translated her story to represent a new vision of generational change that speaks truth to Trump’s cruel policies.”
And Foxx, meanwhile, was touting polling that showed her within striking distance of Grijalva — who, it’s worth noting, not only has name recognition but actual governing experience as a former Pima County supervisor:
This is momentum! We have just 2 weeks left to make history and elect the first woman of our generation to Congress. pic.twitter.com/HvhIL17FAn
It’s unclear whether Hogg sealed Foxx’s fate, or whether it was the other way around. Hogg’s brand is more toxic than a Superfund site after his exit from the DNC, and while his endorsement was supposed to add momentum to the influencer’s campaign, it might have scared people willing to give her a chance off due to the damage Hogg has already managed to wreak in the party.
On the other hand, tying this brilliant proposal to inject new blood into the Democratic Party with a 25-year-old “Gen Z influencer” — which is seriously the only three words on her CV — was a very preventable mistake that Hogg apparently couldn’t be disabused of.
What other warning signs did he need? The fact the dead politician’s own daughter, who has political experience, was running for the seat? Or that she had picked up endorsements from people who usually side with Hogg’s apoplectic twaddle, like Sen. Bernie Sanders and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez? Or simply the still-undefeated maxim that the internet is not real life?
This is a preview of what David Hogg basically ruined his career in legitimate political activism to pursue. Nice work. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to make a gift purchase of the book “When Bad Things Happen to Horrible People” from Amazon for a certain someone. Anyone know Leaders We Deserve PAC’s address offhand?
