The White House has been caught.
The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.
In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

It’s now a thing that when your institution gets shot up, largely because one political party refuses to limit firearms, that same political party will then seize the opportunity to come for you viciously with lies and try to destroy the institution
The Trump administration and its allies seized on the shooting at Brown University to cast the school as incompetent and ideologically hostile to conservatives, amplifying unfounded claims that a Palestinian student was responsible for the bloodshed.

In the gap between the shooting and an arrest, several top officials cast the school as inept and ideologically hostile to conservatives.

HUGE NEWS from the new Epstein files:
Records show that Maria Farmer, who worked for Epstein, filed a "child pornography" report to the FBI in 1996.
The FBI has never before acknowledged that complaint. The case went nowhere, and mass abuse followed.

Hi, folks. Just noting that John F. Kennedy was not a hero. If you haven't read a recent academic history of the man and his presidency, you'll probably be shocked at what a bumbling, sexist mediocrity he was. Cleansing his legacy was an intentional political project.
