Meeting with the trafficker not the victims says it all.
Convicted perjurer and child rapist Ghislaine Maxwell says he’s clean so he must be. She’s quite the character witness for our pedo-ring implicated president. Shortly before her recent suicide, Virginia Guiffre’s victim statement was read at Maxwell’s trial of which here’s a small snippet. ”Twenty-two years ago, in the summer of 2000, you spotted me at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, and you made a choice: You chose to follow me and procure me for Epstein. Just hours later, you and he abused me together for the first time. Together you damaged me physically, mentally, sexually and emotionally. Together you did unthinkable things that still have a corrosive impact on me to this day.”
Last week White House chief of staff Susie Wiles, JD Vance, AG Pam Bondi, FBI Dir Kash Patel & Deputy AG Todd Blanche met at Vance’s residence to discuss the administration’s Epstein strategy. A blatant conflict of interest- an independent FBI and AG would never meet with anyone at the WH to confer about potential cover up.
Innocent people don’t need a strategy or their names redacted.
They’d just release the files.
The fact is, there are innocent people not charged but locked up without due process (aka kidnaped) in Alligator Alcatraz under much worse conditions than Epstein’s wing woman, one of the greatest sexual predators in history.
As I write this she was just granted work release privileges from her new minimum security prison “camp”, the one she’s not entitled to be in given her type of serious convictions.
Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert Kennedy canceled half a billion in funding for mRNA vaccine development. The ongoing research is how the Covid vaccine (that’s credited with saving millions of lives) was developed so quickly. That breakthrough earned the researchers the 2023 Nobel Prize. Many show incredible promise- like one that could fight nearly every type of cancer by making tumors visible to the immune system, negating the need for chemo or radiation.
Gone.
The White House ordered NASA to destroy a $750 million dollar orbiting satellite used for detecting climate change, blasting censorship into space. Ending relevant carbon monitoring doesn’t make the problem go away.
The president also called Texas Governor Greg Abbott pressuring him to call a special session to gerrymander Congressional districts mid cycle because if you can’t win fairly with good policies, you can always replace democratically elected lawmakers at the President’s whim.
“How high?” was heard echoing through the halls.
Conveniently it more than likely will eliminate Trump critic Jasmine Crockett’s seat. It’s important to remember that in 2021 there was the Before the People Act that would have banned gerrymandering. The vote went along party lines with every Democrat voting for it, and every Republican against it. Even with 46% of Texas registered as Democrats to 38% as Republicans, it lost showing the direct effect of gerrymandering.
Lastly, repeat after me: Tariffs are paid by the American consumer. The check is written by the person who receives it at the dock in the US and the importer can pass it on or not.
Even I know that.
