She was wrong even when she said she’s never wrong.
![When asked to respond to criticism her comments received Badenoch dodged the question saying: "I never have gaffes, or apologising for something that I said, [saying]
'oh that's not what I meant, I never have to clarify, because I think very carefully about what I say."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:rpdc2ijg2a3rs25xxaekqpun/bafkreigtxafispse6ybevrawjacqt7qjiss7bbqmo47xbjg62yexmlcome@jpeg)

So I popped across to Mordor to check what she’s latched onto now. No surprises there, and yeah she’s not got much better, other than to note she hasn’t posted since Jan

From the Girlfriends section of the Epstein birthday book... "Visiting you in Palm Beach... can't get a moment of privacy with you and a camera around ha ha!"

It doesn't need to be anything more than ordinary Moscow tourist behaviour - sex with a pretty hooker. The guy who posts pictures of himself as Superman is not going to want us to see a grainy video of his obese ass humping a nice young woman.
