You will be ending your career as a disgraced senator- how could you vote for this knowing this is what the Republicans wanted in return, hidden in the bill?

Utterly shameful and disgusting.

A Black Hawk helicopter. SWAT teams repelling to the roof. 300 agents. Flash-bang grenades. A TV crew.

For all that, fed prosecutors filed no criminal charges against anyone who was arrested.

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump.

The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.

The American people deserve answers, and it’s time for the DOJ and FBI to provide them.

While we appreciate that the Epstein estate has been transparent, it’s time for the Administration to do their part.
