When survivors reacted to this so-called Epstein Files transparency, they didn’t sound shocked. They sounded validated.
Because even with a law, even with a deadline, even with the entire country watching, this pedocracy behaved exactly the way it always has.

I find it disturbing when politicians and the media turn health care into a political game.
Who won? Who lost?
This is about people’s lives. Health care is literally life or death.
No wonder people are losing faith in our system.
