I played Getdown Services to my daughter @mattflipflop.bsky.social

Her response was "it's like listening to a chav talking back to a teacher" 😂

For those not on the Getdown Services bus. It's this sort of thing

I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files.

But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whatever’s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.
