We now live in a country where: – The president is a felon. – The DHS chief kills puppies. – The HHS chief is an antivax ex-addict. – The education secretary can’t read. – The defense secretary is a drunk. – The DNI answers to Moscow. WTF happened?

Mike Johnson after meeting with Epstein victims yesterday. "We are in the process of uploading those documents for full transparency." All lies. Johnson called an early recess to intentionally interfere with releasing the information. He is part of the cover-up. These fuckers are demons.

REALITY CHECK: Under the U.S. Constitution, states are responsible for regulating elections, while Congress has the power to enact national election laws. The President does not have unilateral authority to impose new voting rules like nationwide voter ID requirements.

Listen to author Michael Wolff says he urged Epstein to release information he had on Trump, but Epstein was worried about what Trump might do to him: “He said, ‘I may be a pervert, but I’m not crazy.’ He then said, ‘Trump is a man without any scruples.’”
