What Happened Today – June 6, 2026

Activists are turning 17,000 pounds of the government’s own printed Epstein files into a public archive in Washington, with Trump’s name on the door.

The “Trump and Epstein Memorial Reading Room” opens in days, timed to his birthday next week, and holds 3,400 volumes. Every page the DOJ released is now printed and bound, there to read in your hands instead of on a screen that scrolls it away.

The fury over the rape and abuse of children was never a left or right question, and it remains one of the few things this country still agrees on. After stonewalling for years, Trump had no choice but to sign the law that got these files released. Now they sit in the capital under his name and Epstein’s.

Today's Quote
All work is complete! Great American Patriots, primarily from the Great State of Oklahoma, plus Doug Burgum, Secretary of the Interior, inspecting the very complex, but powerful, Dark Blue surface of the Reflecting Pool, prior to submerging it in CLEAN, BEAUTIFUL WATER. It was originally opened in 1922, but never functioned properly — now it does! Thank you President Trump, thank you Department of the Interior — AND THE BEST IS YET TO COME with The Trump Promenade at The Lincoln Memorial, and The Triumphal Arch, which will be, along with the White House Ballroom, when completed, the Greatest Structure in Washington.
