New developments in my 3 year Epstein investigation, this time regarding JP Morgan Chase and its CEO, Jamie Dimon. This is a long thread, but worth sticking around for.

“All my friends murdered and raped, sometimes they hung out at my house. Get over yourself.”

RFK Jr. explains why socializing with Jeffrey Epstein wasn't such a big deal for him:
...l ran into everybody in NY. I mean, I knew Harvey Weinstein, I knew Roger Ailes, I knew
-- O.J. Simpson came to my house. Bill Cosby came to my house."

How much time do you spend fighting for our democracy online?

Would you consider taking some of that time & volunteering to contact voters for Prop 50?

I guarantee it makes a difference & it's very empowering.

Consider calling voters. It's +something you can do from anywhere.

We need you!

Got buried in the news this weekend, but President Jesus said the F word on CNN at like 2pm in the afternoon. The next day he posted a poop-filled scat video, but tell Me more about the dignity of the office of the presidency.

Rather than debate whether Prince Andrew loses his title, I’d prefer him taken to a police station, interviewed under caution and - if the investigating officers believe they have sufficient evidence - charged and prosecuted. If a jury later finds him guilty like any citizen he should then be jailed

Trump has launched seven deadly strikes in the Caribbean Sea.

Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.

He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.

Donald Trump is now officially demolishing part of the White House to make room for his $200 million golden ballroom.

This comes as Americans can’t afford groceries and the government is still shut down.
