A Republican congressman has challenged Donald Trump over the president's handling of sensitive files related to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Thomas Massie, a US representative from Kentucky, criticized Trump for ordering Attorney General Pam Bondi to examine Democrats with ties to Epstein.
Massie believes that Trump is attempting to keep the full files on Epstein under wraps by launching a new investigation. The congressman claims that this move might be a "smokescreen" aimed at preventing the release of the documents. He expressed concerns about ongoing investigations and their potential impact on the release of the files.
Meanwhile, Republican congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has spoken out against Trump's remarks labeling her a traitor and a lunatic. Despite being withdrawn from support by the president, Greene says she hopes to resolve their differences and make amends.
In other news, 17 transgender US air force members have filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration over denied early retirement pensions and benefits. The case claims that the government's actions are "unlawful and invalid".
The US military has also been involved in another operation targeting an alleged drug trafficking boat in the eastern Pacific, killing three people on board.
Lastly, the BBC has expressed its opposition to paying any money to Donald Trump, with former director general Tony Hall stating that this is a matter of principle.

. First off, Massie thinks he's being super clever by calling it a smokescreen, but honestly, who does that? 
And Marjorie Taylor Greene getting roasted for not taking the heat from Trump is just another example of how toxic his circle is 
.
.
Finally, someone's speaking truth to power! It's about time these big institutions take a stand against toxic personalities like him. 
and it's not even 2025 yet! first off, massie thinks trump's trying to hide the epstein files like a smokescreen? lol what's next, a conspiracy theory about the moon landing too? 
meanwhile, 17 us air force members are fighting for their pensionz and benefits cuz trump decided to screw them over . that's some messed up stuff right there .
but seriously, if trump's gonna be all "believe me" and "fake news", then maybe he shouldn't get any cash from us .
Can't help but think that Trump's actions are more about covering his own backside than doing what's right.
I feel bad for them, and it's not right that they're being treated this way. The BBC refusing to pay Trump is a great move btw, more people need to speak out against his behavior 
. It's like they're trying to sweep everything under the rug, but we need transparency, you know? Transparency is key 
.
... like what's up with it? First, we got Trump ordering Pam Bondi to look into Democrats tied to Epstein, and now Massie thinks it's all a "smokescreen" 
.
. And let's be real, the BBC doesn't have to pay Trump because... well, he's just plain weird
