I came to this country as a child refugee. No English, no certainty, no idea what my life could become. Britain gave me refuge.

I think the powers that be haven't quite understood the depth of feeling the public has about the #EpsteinFiles.
We're ready to throw hands.
We're ready to swing hammers.
We are ready to set light to the whole edifice of faux-propriety that's been used to protect powerful perverts all this time.

The Republican chairs of both the House and Senate Armed Services committees signed a letter yesterday stating that they requested specific info many weeks ago on these strikes and the WH & Pentagon have refused to provide it. If the story is fake news, then turn everything over.

In less than a day he veered from chest-thumping about drug trafficking to quietly freeing one of its players, a contradiction so blatant it borders on parody.
