Even Secretary Brain Worm understands this is all information that will eventually be released.
A nuisance when it counts, an advocate for women and girls, semi-professional busybody, recovering resident of Florida. Woke is my factory setting. Also a fan of government transparency and accountability. Call me a dreamer. No DMs. Really,none.

I call BS. These little red bags are used for handing out chocolates and sometimes cash to children on Chinese New Year. Any one who is volunteering on even a rudimentary campaign in a fund raising capacity knows they can’t hand out cash to anyone, much less a reporter.

Perhaps they could create some sort of gold-plated Nobel Participation Trophy to mollify our 5-year-old FOTUS?? He probably never got to play Tee Ball.

It’s insane that large states like Florida and Texas don’t have full time state legislatures. It means that regular folks can’t run. You have to be a lawyer, a business owner, or independently wealthy. It skews everything, and this is intentional. Right @angieforfl.bsky.social ??

But that's not what caused the rupture in their relationship, according to the story FOTUS has repeated multiple times. They were bidding on the same piece of nouveau ugly waterfront property--THAT was the final straw.

Tried the same years ago in Yellowstone after watching an Elk try to get a calf across a river. Their attitude, and training, is that the calves have to "sink or swim" on their own. Natural selection, in other words. They won't intervene.

To be super clear, she could have testified on her own behalf, and answered everybody's questions. She declined to do so. The jury was instructed not to draw any inferences from that, but we can all use our common sense.

There was a full month-long jury trial in which Maxwell declined to testify on her own behalf. She was amply represented by dudes who elected to blame her victims. Rush to judgement my ass.
Paula Liang (@pollamb.bsky.social)
To clarify, FOTUS always knew he was in the Epstein Files because he was on the Epstein plane, in multiple videos partying with children together, and the list goes on and on. None of this is a surprise. He just thought MAGA would find a reason not to care, and many have.

No, this is an Olympic level distraction. She's in jail because a jury put her there for grooming and abusing children. There was no mistake. She declined to testify on her own behalf. She had that opportunity. And the fact that she's white? Other than, of course she is, what's your point?

Couple of things. Civilian review boards are illegal in FL, so internal review and external lawsuits are the only options. Also, TK Waters was elected by the same electorate that put a Dem in City Hall. He can be removed in 2 years by that same electorate.

He was elected, to be clear. By the same electorate that put a Dem in City Hall. So they need to find a compelling Dem to run against him.
