Congress, it's time to start an independent commission to investigate and make sense of the Epstein Files.
The American public demands answers for everyone named in the files and accountability for the victims. It's time.
How deep does this go? Why won't the DOJ do their job? Investigate them.

I’ve had such an epic summer of reading. Did you know you can acquire a book, a work of pure fiction even, and you can simply read it until the end? No further technologies are required, although I do like a lamp
