Now The End Begins
Host And Founder Of ‘Now The End Begins’ Geoffrey Grider:
The Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey Epstein Reading Room Turns 3.5 Million Pages Of Buried Elite Corruption Into A Midterm Weapon Against Trump

The timing could not be more explosive. America is watching a sitting president entangled in a Middle East war, gas prices are biting voters at the pump, the midterms are coming like a freight train, and right in the middle of it all sits a pop-up shrine to the Epstein files in New York City called The Donald J Trump and Jeffrey Epstein Memorial Reading Room.That is not just an exhibit. it’s a political omen.

“Then was the part of the hand sent from him; and this writing was written. And this is the writing that was written, MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN. This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it.” Daniel 5:24-25 (KJV)

The Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey Epstein Reading Room reportedly contains roughly 3.5 million pages of Epstein-related Justice Department files, bound into 3,437 volumes, with a display on the long-running relationship between Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein. CNA reports that public access to the actual files is limited because DOJ failed to properly redact some victim names, but the visual impact is unrelenting and unmistakable – row upon row of Epstein Files bound records, a public spectacle of what the ruling class would rather keep buried.
If Donald Trump thought that starting a war with Iran would get people to stop talking about the Epstein Files, he was way off. Take a look at what just opened in New York City – The Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey Epstein Memorial Reading Room. And no, it’s not AI, it’s goodbye. pic.twitter.com/71l4xOUdWc

And here is the problem for Trump and MAGA:Epstein was supposed to be their issue. For years, the Epstein files were held up as proof that an elite network of predators, fixers, financiers, politicians, intelligence assets, media gatekeepers and untouchable power brokers had operated above the law. MAGA voters were told that Trump was the man who would expose the rot. But now, with Trump back in the White House, the files are not functioning as a weapon against the Deep State nearly as much as they are becoming a mirror held up to the entire system — including Trump’s own proximity to it. That is politically devastating, beyond politically devastating, actually.

The White House position, as reported by WIRED, is that Trump has been “totally exonerated” on anything relating to Epstein, and Trump has denied wrongdoing. That distinction matters. But politics is not a courtroom, and the midterms will not be decided by evidentiary standards alone. They will be decided by perception, turnout, trust, anger, fatigue, gas prices, and whether the base believes the man they followed is still the outsider taking on Babylon — or has become another administrator of it. The Iran war makes this much worse. Reuters/Ipsos polling reported by Military Times found that 66% of Americans said Trump had not clearly explained the goals of U.S. military involvement in Iran, including one in three Republicans. That is a brutal number heading into a midterm year, because wars become political poison when voters cannot answer the simplest question: Why are we there?

Marist’s May 2026 polling is even more dangerous for Republicans: 60% disapprove of Trump’s handling of Iran, 61% say U.S. military action in Iran has done more harm than good, and Trump’s overall approval sits at 37%, with Democratic congressional candidates holding a “healthy lead” on the generic ballot. FiftyPlusOne’s May 11 generic ballot average showed Democrats ahead by 5 points, 47.3% to 42.0%. There’s your ‘midterm trap’, right there.

Trump won by turning politics into a loyalty test. But midterms are not presidential rallies. Midterms are about intensity, annoyance, protest, and whether your voters are still willing to stand in line for you when your name is not on the ballot. If even a small slice of MAGA voters stays home because they feel betrayed on war, the Epstein files, inflation, or “America First,” Republicans could lose the House in a wave that becomes a referendum on Trumpism itself.
IT’S MATH TIME: In 2024 Donald Trump Jr. said that the “only people who would want to stop the Epstein Files from coming out are people who are protecting pedophiles”. Today his father the president stopped the full release of those same files. Do the math. pic.twitter.com/5pQilqOF1M

And this is where the Epstein files cut deeper than ordinary scandal. Epstein is not just a name. Epstein is a symbol. He represents the black heart of elite corruption: money, sex, power, secrecy, intelligence shadows, compromised politicians, and a justice system that seems to protect the powerful while crushing the powerless. The average MAGA voter does not need a law degree to smell a cover-up. They have been trained for years to distrust official narratives. So when the files come out slowly, awkwardly, incompletely, or in ways that appear politically managed, the base does not simply blame Democrats. Some of them begin asking the forbidden question: Why isn’t Trump blowing the whole thing open? That question is radioactive, to say the least.

The Iran war may rally the most loyal parts of the base for a season, but it also exposes the contradiction at the heart of modern MAGA. “America First” was supposed to mean no more endless Middle East wars. No more nation-building. No more blank checks for foreign entanglements while Americans suffer at home. Yet now the movement is being asked to defend another Iran conflict while gas prices, war fatigue and unresolved Epstein questions all collide. A Quincy Institute/TAC poll of 2024 Trump voters found 58% opposed sending U.S. troops into Iran, 55% were worried about rising gas prices from the war, and support among younger Trump voters was far weaker than among older ones.




Harbinger’s Daily
By Tom Gilbreath: Until he was accused of attacking the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on April 25, people acquainted with Cole Tomas Allen of Torrance, California, thought of him as mild-mannered, gentle, and intelligent. He comes from a highly accomplished family — pillars in their community. He graduated from respected institutions, had his choice of promising careers, and was active in a church.

But when arrested, this “mild-mannered, gentle, and intelligent” man carried a Maverick 12-gauge shotgun, an Armscor Precision .38 semiautomatic pistol, a Ka-Bar knife, and three Smith & Wesson boot knives. Thus armed, he sprinted through a security checkpoint leading into the Hilton ballroom filled with 2,600 people. The crowd included the President of the United States and the next two people in the line of succession — the Vice President and the Speaker of the House. The Secretary of State and other Cabinet officials were also present, along with some of the most influential members of the world’s media.

At 8:30 that evening — just six minutes before the attack — Allen emailed a manifesto to family members. The explanation for his violence sounded like a social media post from someone desperate to appear witty, principled, clever, cute, and morally superior. He signed it, “Cole ‘coldForce’ ‘Friendly Federal Assassin’ Allen.” The New York Times explained, “Cole Tomas Allen posted on Bluesky as ‘coldForce,’ who wrote and promoted liberal views that did not stand out on the left-leaning platform.”

On social media, emotion trumps evidence. If you accuse a hated person of a crime, people who join you in that hate tend to believe you whether or not you present evidence of the alleged crime. The email made no attempt to substantiate its nonspecific allegations against President Trump.



Prophecy News Watch
By PNW Staff: Drone warfare has become one of the defining forces of the Russia–Ukraine war, reshaping not only how battles are fought but also how territory is contested, held, and even denied without traditional infantry engagement. What began as a supporting capability has evolved into a central pillar of modern warfare—so much so that analysts increasingly describe the front lines in Ukraine not as trenches alone, but as layered “kill zones” dominated by persistent aerial surveillance and strike drones.

One of the most striking developments is the sheer scale of drone deployment. Across the battlefield, Ukrainian forces are believed to be operating tens of thousands—possibly hundreds of thousands—of drones in circulation, supported by decentralized production and rapid frontline distribution. This has enabled what military observers often refer to as a “drone wall”: a dense, overlapping network of reconnaissance and attack systems that can detect, track, and strike targets in real time. In practice, this means Ukrainian units can monitor large stretches of territory continuously, making traditional troop movements far more dangerous and expensive.

This shift has helped stall aspects of Russia’s invasion strategy in several ways. Even when Russia maintains advantages in manpower and artillery, its ability to maneuver large formations has been constrained by constant aerial observation and precision strikes. Infantry advances that once relied on surprise or massed concentration are now exposed almost instantly. As a result, some positions are effectively held or denied not by soldiers alone, but by drones that function as eyes, scouts, and strike platforms simultaneously.



Geller Report
By Pamela Geller: How Hamas was allowed to see another day defies all reason, all logic, all humanity.

Unimaginable savagery. Necessary that it is published in full to finally extinguish anti-Jewish, perverse doubts that remain over what happened that day.

By Aynaz Anni Cyru: On May 5, Megyn Kelly said something revealing during an appearance on Next Up with Mark Halperin, while defending Tucker Carlson’s recent posture toward Islam and criticism of Israel.
“I’ve noticed just since I’ve gotten sort of more clear-eyed on Israel that a lot of the anti-Muslim rhetoric that’s put out there originates with people who are very, very pro-Israel who kind of need us to demonize them (Muslims). And I’ve taken a look recently at my own rhetoric on this to say like, have I been manipulated?”
I would like to address Megyn personally and directly:

Megyn, your statement deserves an answer because there is a limit to how much you can gaslight those who have suffered under Islam and Sharia in the service of your anti-Israel rhetoric. And yours truly has reached her limit with your latest viral statement.

So let’s address what you actually said...
