If the photos are too gross to release, they need to be described.
Garcia: "Just last night we received about 95,000 photographs from the Epstein estate. We've gone through maybe about 25,000 of them so far ... we will continue to put out more photos in the days and weeks ahead."

Everything said about Biden’s age and cognitive state last year is happening right before our eyes with the current president and no one is taking out full page ads asking him to step down.

Rather than allow for competitive bidding, the deals “covertly raise prices and inflate costs for governments.”
