NEW: The armed man shot and killed by Secret Service agents outside Mar-a-Lago had reportedly become increasingly obsessed with the Epstein files and was also a vocal Trump supporter.
Austin Tucker Martin sent a text to a co-worker on February 15, 2026, obtained by TMZ, that read, “I don’t know if you read up on the Epstein Files, but evil is real and unmistakable.” He added, “The best people like you and I can do is use what little influence we have. Tell other people about what you hear about the Epstein files and what the government is doing about it. Raise awareness.”
Sources who worked with him at Pine Needles Lodge & Golf Club in North Carolina told TMZ he became fixated on the Epstein matter after the latest release of the Epstein files and was deeply disturbed by what he believed was a government cover-up, often talking about powerful people “getting away with it.”

Can't wait for the US women's reaction to this. They should play this video with the theme of America's funniest home videos in the background.
Sickened reactions to a damning new report about Rep. Tony Gonzales’s (R-TX) alleged affair with Regina Santos-Aviles, a former staffer who committed suicide by self-immolation last September, rolled in on Monday as the political world grappled with the tragic scandal.
Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) called on Gonzales to step aside.
