Just in case you didn't catch it he now wants to deprive WOMEN of the right to vote. Oh sure he'll use every skeevy machination he can to justify it but it's what he's trying to do. I think he may want to check with the Women first.

23 of Epstein’s victims have testified in court. In an August 2019 hearing, 22 women spoke about the abuses committed by Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. 4 women testified at Ghislaine’s trial. Investigative reporting has identified roughly 80 survivors in total. 🖕🏼👇🏼 www.justice.gov/maxwell-inte...

For anyone confused, FEMA is overseen by DHS, and their function is 90% planning and preparedness, not just showing up to hand you a check. Natural disasters happen. When leaders don’t plan, fund, or take preparedness seriously, the consequences are far worse. That’s the point.
