You sure his name isn’t Jake Tapper? If Clinton did what Trump is alleged to have done with Epstein, throw his ass in jail, too! But last time I checked he hasn’t been President of the USA for a quarter century. Feed these MAGA talking points right now & we’ll never get the full truth.

Two of Epstein’s victims wrote letters—and they didn’t mince words about the Trump administration shielding Trump while not giving a damn about “transparency” or the victims. 📌 So of course, right on cue, Pam Bondi ordered the DOJ to launch an investigation into President Obama.
