The White House has been caught.
The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.
In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

The important news on December 15 is Ukraine blew up a russian submarine in Novorossiysk.
The irrelevant news is there were more fake peace talks in Germany between Ukraine and the russian terrorist state (represented by its proxy, the Trump regime).
