He tells me about Zohran Mamdani announcing he's moving into Gracie Mansion:

Something Pamela Jo Bondi has expunged from the Epstein Files: anything to do with Melania Trump’s connection with Jeffrey Epstein. Melania knew him *before* Trump. Epstein introduced Melania to Donald on Epstein’s plane, where they immediately had sex. I wonder if she was procured for that purpose.
