The U.S. Justice Department released nearly 3.5 million pages of Epstein files on January 30, 2026, under the Epstein Files Transparency Act signed by President Trump in November 2025. These documents detail Epstein's sex trafficking, Ghislaine Maxwell's case, and his 2019 death, naming prominent figures but leading to few prosecutions so far. CGTN's mid-February broadcast highlighted victims' exposed names versus protected abusers, contrasting with more measured U.S. coverage and sparking global talks on elite accountability amid international fallout like Prince Andrew's arrest.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

CGTN host Wang Guan likened the newly released Jeffrey Epstein files to a 'CT scan of the whole system,' exposing courts, banks, and politicians too powerful to face charges.

Frank McCormick, a former teacher and constitutional conservative, posted on X early Thursday asking if people enjoy Christmas aesthetics like lights, music, and decorations. Over 50 Jewish respondents largely expressed delight in the holiday's vibe and mood-boosting elements amid winter, noting cultural participation such as eating Chinese food on Christmas or decorating neighbors' trees. Many highlighted the irony that iconic songs like 'White Christmas' and 'Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer' were written by Jewish composers including Irving Berlin and Johnny Marks. While a minority opts out, the thread with over 4,000 views reflects American pluralism and shared seasonal goodwill transcending faith.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

A simple question on X about enjoying the Christmas season sparked dozens of positive replies from Jewish users, who praised its twinkling lights, festive music, and communal joy without embracing its religious core.

A post highlighting Portugal's median monthly earnings of €950-€1,000 and average around €1,600 drew cheers from some comparing it to U.S. standards, but sparked anger from residents like Rita in southern Portugal. She pointed out how influxes of American retirees and remote workers have driven housing prices up 23.4% nationwide in 2025, with Lisbon seeing 35 people crammed into one apartment and regions turning English-speaking. While government plans tax cuts for landlords and more housing for 2026, the debate reveals Portugal's struggle to balance global appeal with protecting locals from being priced out.

New research from the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council shows two unnamed tech companies—widely seen as Apple and Microsoft—paid nearly €11 billion, or 40% of Ireland's 2024 corporation tax, with Eli Lilly covering most of the rest to reach 46% total. Corporation tax has nearly doubled since 2021, boosted by global 15% minimum rates that will add €5 billion more from 2026, but the council warns of risks from over-reliance on a few U.S. firms amid AI uncertainties, regulations, and policy shifts. While multinationals bring jobs, exports like Eli Lilly's €36 billion in drug ingredients, and funds like the €20 billion Strategic Transformation Fund, online concerns echo the 2008 crash, urging bigger savings buffers.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Imagine three companies footing nearly half of a nation's corporate tax bill. That's Ireland's reality, where two tech giants and one pharma firm drove the bulk of last year's €28.1 billion haul.

Newly released records reveal DHS did not publicly link its agents to the shooting for eight months, drawing criticism from Texas lawmakers demanding footage and a probe. Texas Rangers continue investigating, with a grand jury review pending.

Former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton spoke out against Prime Minister Viktor Orbán days before Hungary's April 12 parliamentary elections, warning voters against backing a Trump ally. Orbán, who has led since 2010, recently hosted U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who praised strong bilateral ties and Trump's support. Critics dismissed Clinton's comment by noting Orbán's long career predates Trump, while polls show challenger Péter Magyar's Tisza party now leading in a tight race marked by debates over EU policies, migration, and national sovereignty.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

In a video clip shared online, Hillary Clinton urged Hungarians to pick leaders for their own country, not someone she labeled a 'puppet of Trump.' The remark lands as Orbán's party braces for its closest election fight yet.
