Laura Dern Is Set To Star In A New Limited Series About Jeffrey Epstein—But Not Everyone's Happy About It
Apr 01, 2026
Well, we've officially reached the part of the Epstein saga where a limited series is being made about the case, and not everyone is happy about it.
Oscar winner Laura Dern has been announced as the star of an upcoming Sony series about the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, Perversion of Justice: The Jeffrey Epstein Story.
Dern will play Julie K. Brown, the Miami Herald journalist whose dogged reporting on the case uncovered a secret plea deal between Epstein and federal authorities and led to Epstein and partner Ghislaine Maxwell's 2019 arrests.
But then, of course, there's the elephant in the room: So far, nearly everyone involved with Epstein is getting away with it. Is a TV show really what we need?
Dern, of course, is one of the finest actors we've got these days, and the more attention is kept on this case despite the President's willingness to do whatever it takes to distract from it, the better. So some were excited by the announcement and her casting.
The show will be produced by Dern and Adam McKay, well known for his delves into political topics, along with Kevin Messick, Sharon Hoffman, and Eileen Myers.
According to Sony, the series will be "an explosive account of an investigative reporter exposing the secret plea deal between Epstein and federal prosecutors."
Their release went on to say:
"Drawing from Brown’s experience as a groundbreaking reporter for the Miami Herald, the book and the limited series follow her relentless years-long investigation that identified 80 victims, persuaded key survivors to go on the record, and led to Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s arrests.”
Epstein had previously been convicted of charges of procuring a minor for prostitution and soliciting a prostitute, but Brown's reporting led to a whole new set of trafficking charges against Epstein and Maxwell and sparked the public outcry to have the Epstein files released, which is still ongoing.
But given the truly horrific gravity of the evidence and allegations revealed in said files, the reaction to the series' announcement has been more anger than excitement.
Many people are furious that the case is being turned into entertainment, and even more angry we're getting a TV show before a single substantive arrest.
Keeping the Epstein case in the spotlight is important given how hard those involved are working to keep it hidden. But considering the gravity of the crimes, it's hard not to feel like those angry about this series have a point.

Kristi Noem Asks For 'Privacy And Prayers' After Allegations That Her Husband Lives A Double Life As A Crossdresser Go Public
Apr 01, 2026
On Tuesday morning, the Daily Mail—a British tabloid paper based in London—published a story with the headline: "Secret double life of Kristi Noem's crossdressing husband Bryon: The pouting 'busty bimbo' photos and trove of explicit messages."
According to the Daily Mail, Bryon Noem—who was left behind in South Dakota while Kristi Noem allegedly lived in Coast Guard housing in Washington D.C. with her longtime affair partner Corey Lewandowski, who is also married—had been engaging in online exchanges with women who were part of the bimbofication sexual subculture.
Bimbofication can be a lifestyle or a sexual kink and/or fetish that involves role-playing and "transforming oneself into a stereotypical portrayal of a bimbo" with styled hair, exaggerated lips, heavy makeup, and large breasts. The so-called Mar-a-Lago look has been used as an example of bimbofication as a lifestyle choice.
The Daily Mail also alleged Bryon Noem shared photos of himself bimbofied with overly large fake breasts.
Tuesday, March 31, was the official end of Kristi Noem's tenure as MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary. A tabloid story about her husband greeting her bright and early—the Daily Mail's 10:04 am BST online publication time for the story translates to 5:04 am EST in Washington D.C.—probably wasn't welcome.
When Noem was approached for comment, a representative for Noem gave an exclusive statement to Rupert Murdoch's New York Post tabloid paper. It's unclear if Noem received payment, as is customary, for the exclusive.
The spokesperson conveyed:
"Ms. Noem is devastated. The family was blindsided by this, and they ask for privacy and prayers at the time."
People's sympathy for Noem was low, given her utter lack of compassion while head of DHS.
Many were unbothered by Bryon Noem's alleged fetish as it involved consenting adults for once.

One piece of the exposé people noted was Bryon Noem seemingly confirming his wife's affair with the also married Lewandowski.

Lewandowski's activities with Noem at DHS, which includes the $220 million ad campaign featuring her and her luxury jet usage, came under fire in recent congressional hearings.
Online rumors that Kristi Noem or her alleged lover Lewandowski leaked the story to garner sympathy for Kristi and facilitate a divorce from Bryon Noem have as yet not been confirmed.
Others speculated the leak came from the White House to discredit and cut ties with Noem.
Trump reportedly said, "That’s too bad," when asked on Tuesday about the latest scandal involving a member of his administration by the tabloid that broke the story.
Trump told the Daily Mail:
"They confirmed it? Wow, well, I feel badly for the family if that's the case, that's too bad."
"I haven't seen anything. I don't know anything about it. That's too bad, but I just know nothing about it."
For now, Kristi Noem retains her new title of special envoy to the newly created "Shield of the Americas" initiative.

Marco Rubio's Tone Deaf Attack On How Iran Is 'Spending Its Wealth' Is A Total Self-Own
Apr 01, 2026
Secretary of State Marco Rubio was called out for hypocrisy after he criticized Iran during an appearance on Good Morning America, admonishing the country for spending "billions of dollars" on weapons instead of its people.
Rubio appeared on the program to defend the increasingly unpopular war, which kicked off after the U.S., in a joint operation with Israel, authorized strikes on February 28.
He said:
“At the end of the day, I think that if there are people in Iran who, now, given everything that's happened, are willing to move in a different direction for their country, that would be great."
“Imagine an Iran that, instead of spending their wealth, billions of dollars supporting terrorists or weapons, had spent that money helping the people of Iran. You’d have a much different country. So we're always hopeful that that would exist over there."
You can hear what he said in the video below.
The irony was rich.
Rubio did not mention that roughly 15 percent of the U.S. federal budget goes to the Department of Defense, which amounts to more than $2 trillion in real terms. At the same time, about 68,000 Americans die each year because they lack access to adequate health care.
The U.S. also trails many countries on several key social indicators. It ranks 31st globally in education, 27th in social mobility, and 54th in infant mortality, performing worse in that category than places such as Serbia, Bermuda and Cuba.
In a closed-door briefing on Capitol Hill last month, Pentagon officials told lawmakers that the cost of the war with Iran had already surpassed $11.3 billion in just the first six days. That estimate excludes a number of associated expenses, including the buildup of military equipment and personnel prior to the initial strikes.
As the Pentagon continues calculating the costs incurred during the opening phase of the conflict, lawmakers expect the total to rise significantly. Earlier reports by The New York Times and The Washington Post indicated that defense officials told lawmakers the military had used $5.6 billion worth of munitions in the first two days alone.
That spending level represents a much higher burn rate than had previously been disclosed publicly. The Center for Strategic and International Studies had estimated that the first 100 hours of the operation cost $3.7 billion, or roughly $891.4 million per day.
The initial wave of attacks relied on weapons such as the AGM-154 glide bomb, which can cost between $578,000 and $836,000 each. The Navy purchased about 3,000 of these weapons nearly two decades ago. Since then, the U.S. military has indicated it plans to rely more on less expensive alternatives, including the Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM). The smallest JDAM warhead costs about $1,000, while the guidance kit costs approximately $38,000.
People called out Rubio's hypocrisy.
A recent Economist–YouGov poll found that 14 percent of Americans support sending U.S. ground troops into Iran, while 62 percent oppose the idea and 24 percent remain unsure. Other surveys, including those by Ipsos and AP-NORC, produced similarly lopsided results, with opposition exceeding support by more than four to one.
In the YouGov survey, more Republicans opposed the idea than supported it, by 37 percent to 30 percent. Support is also limited among Trump’s core supporters: 41 percent of self-identified MAGA supporters backed a ground operation, while 27 percent opposed it, and 60 percent of non-MAGA Republicans said they were against sending ground troops.
This doesn't bode well for Republicans facing an uphill climb with midterm elections just months away.

Official GOP X Account Slammed After Tweeting Homophobic Jab Aimed At Tim Walz
Apr 01, 2026
After Minnesota Governor Tim Walz shared a post backing the "No Kings" protests over the weekend, Republicans lashed out with a tweet that had more than homophobic undertones.
Last October, massive crowds flooded streets across the country on for “No Kings” protests denouncing Trump’s policies, with major demonstrations in New York, Washington, D.C., Chicago, Miami, and Los Angeles. Organizers said the demonstrations—which drew nearly seven million participants nationwide—remained overwhelmingly peaceful.
The latest round of protests have eclipsed those; organizers said more than 8 million people attended to protest against the Trump administration as anger grows toward the affordability crisis, the Iran war, the immigration crackdown, and the Epstein files scandal.
On Saturday, Walz tweeted a simple "No kings" message to express solidarity with protesters.
In response, the official GOP account shared a photo of Walz—who was former Vice President Kamala Harris' running mate—on the 2024 campaign trail and tweeted "No Queens," using a term used to mock gay men, especially those perceived as effeminate or flamboyant.
You can see the post below.
People were quick to call out the party considering President Donald Trump—who wears makeup—is implicated in the Epstein files scandal.
While the GOP definitely has an issue with "queens," it doesn't appear to have any issue with "kings" considering the lack of pushback against Trump for mocking demonstrators.
Trump was criticized last year after he took to Truth Social to share a bizarre AI-generated video of himself dumping poop on crowds of demonstrators from a fighter jet.
The video depicts Trump wearing a crown and flying a fighter jet emblazoned with the words “King Trump.” Set to Kenny Loggins’ “Danger Zone,” the doctored clip shows him releasing a massive load of feces onto protesters gathered in New York City’s Times Square.
In response to the latest demonstrations, which took place in nearly every major U.S. city, a White House spokesperson called them "Trump Derangement Therapy Sessions" and said the only people who care "are the reporters who are paid to cover them."

MAGA Gets Brutal Wakeup Call After Melting Down Over A Video Of Zohran Mamdani Talking With His Mouth Full
Mar 31, 2026
New York City Democratic Mayor Zohran Mamdani filmed a "mukbang"-style video alongside NYC's Department of Consumer and Worker Protection (DCWP) Commissioner Sam Levine while eating Taco Bell and Dunkin' Donuts.
A mukbang is an often live-streamed video featuring a person eating while interacting with their audience. Mayor Mamdani's video was designed to reach a younger audience, so they used the mukbang format first made popular by South Korean content creators.
The self-described democratic socialist was using the video to announce enforcement actions resulting in a $1.5 million–$1.8 million labor law settlement against fast-food franchisees. The settlement with Salz Management LLC involved 24 Taco Bell and Dunkin' locations—hence the video's menu—over violations regarding scheduling and "clopening" shifts.
You can see the full 29 minute video here:
MAGA influencers David "Gunther Eagleman" Freeman of Texas and Brandon Straka of Nebraska took to X to complain about the New York City mayor's video.
The men complained because Zohran Mamdani eats on camera. Or eats Taco Bell. Or speaks while eating. Or talks with his mouth full. Or discusses "policy" while eating Munchkins.
It's not really clear exactly what their issue is or why two men living nowhere near New York City think they have a dog in this fight.
Texan Freeman, a.k.a. Eagleman, captioned his video clip:
"Why is Zohran Mamdani shoving his face, speaking with a mouth full of food about sour cream and worker protection enforcement?"
"Communism is quickly proving to be pure idiocracy and hopefully New Yorker's wake up and STOP voting for dipsht commie dems."
"It's the ONLY WAY to save the city."
Corn husker Straka captioned his repost of the clip Freeman shared:
"Zohran Mamdani draws criticism after a clip shows him speaking with his mouth full while discussing policy."
"Calls grow for New Yorkers to rethink their leadership choices."
The MAGA minions jumped into the comments—with all the dignity and grammar people have come to expect—to voice their own concerns.
Most also had no connection to New York City.

But MAGA minions weren't the only people in their comments or who noticed their posts.
Many questioned the men's priorities.
Others had a direct message for "Gunther Eagleman" or Brandon Straka.

Including calling out David "Gunther Eagleman" Freeman for his own eating habits.
This wasn’t the first time MAGA had a meltdown over Mamdani eating.
During his mayoral campaign, Mamdani was criticized for eating rice and lentils with his hands.
It's a good thing there's nothing important to be concerned about.
