So why are the Epstein files the one set he refuses to touch?

Remember Jamal Khashoggi.
God I miss having a real President!
The moment when 30 million American's received healthcare (2010) The moment when insurance companies had to start covering preexisting conditions, young adults could stay on their family's policy and I could trust that the small print couldn't screw me if I needed serious medical assistance. 🇺🇸

Good news, everyone
BREAKING: A Federal Court has BLOCKED Texas republicans from using their new maps in the 2026 midterms. The ruling must be appealed directly to the Supreme Court. Unsure why the Trib has two conflicting headlines. www.texastribune.org/2025/11/18/t...
Federal court clears new Texas congressional map for 2026 // Federal court blocks new Texas congressional map for 2026
The decision is a major blow for Republicans, in Texas and nationally, who pushed through this unusual mid-decade redistricting at the behest of President Donald Trump.

This is how the depraved, unprincipled Trump excuses the murder of Jamal Khashoggi : blame the victim.
“A lot of people didn’t like that gentleman that you’re talking about, whether you like him or didn’t like him, things happen,” he says sitting with the culpable MBS.
Sickening and infuriating.
