So we know there are images of death, physical abuse, and injury in the #EpsteinFiles. Got it.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche admits that the DOJ excluded all images showing “death, physical abuse, or injury” from yesterday’s Epstein files release.
WHAT ELSE ARE THEY HIDING???

The actual story is that a family of American citizens trying to evacuate from a neighborhood that ICE had made unsafe, and then ICE tossed munitions into the car, causing three kids to be hospitalized and a six month old to stop breathing. DHS called the family “radical agitators”

Any one of us could be detained for hours by ICE despite being a U.S. citizen.
Any one of us could be in the next apartment building that ICE raids in the middle of the night.
Any one of us could be the next to be brutalized by ICE for speaking out.
Authoritarianism hurts all of us.

There is no legal justification, whatsoever, to use military force against a NATO ally like Greenland.
If any military member participates in this without congressional authorization, they are following illegal orders.

On the 5th Anniversary of the failed January 6th insurrection attempt, we’re reminded how fragile democracy can be. We must remember the darkness of that day so it’s never repeated. As history is rewritten by some, we choose to speak the truth of what happened.

This image (File 468 in the Epstein records), showing Donald Trump, was part of the DOJ’s Friday release and has since vanished from the agency’s website. Funny how that works. Someone must have missed that redaction, oops.

Epstein was indicted in 2006. He was investigated for child sex trafficking in 2005. Brooks attended the event in 2011.

“We almost had a midair collision up here,” the pilot said, according to ATC recordings. "They passed directly in our flight path ..."’
