Who to believe?
Marjorie Taylor Greene is the person who believed in QAnon, Jewish space lasers, and a global cabal of Satanic child-eaters … but sure, she’s the voice of reason now because she’s “anti-trafficking.” President Trump? The guy who mused on live TV about whether disinfectant injections might help with COVID, insists he hardly knew Epstein (despite photos and quotes), and now pretends Greene is too extreme for him. So, who’s more believable? Honestly, that’s like choosing whether you trust the person who brought the tinfoil hat or the one who’s selling them at the rally.
How it changes
President Trump and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene have a spat going. She supports releasing the rest of the Epstein files and he doesn’t like it. On Friday night, Trump slammed Greene in a Truth Social post, calling her “wacky” and a “ranting lunatic.” Interesting that he didn’t mind her being that way when she was supporting him.
It’s always something
It seems there is nothing the Democrats won’t do to try and stop the will of the people. Republicans were handed control of all three branches of our government and, since that day, Democrats have done everything they can to take away that power.
Next move
President Zelenskyy won’t back down on the war with Russia, so the next move is to discredit him personally. Now he is being investigated for corruption. Isn’t Benjamin Netanyahu already charged with that?
It really is quite simple
Whether Republican or Democrat, anyone found to have committed illegal acts with Jeffrey Epstein should be punished to the fullest extent of the law.
Make it stop
When will it stop? How can the president weaponize the DOJ to a investigate a single political party by ordering a new Epstein investigation? This is dangerous and has got to cease. Reports note that long-time, career DOJ prosecutors have resigned under this administration, suggesting they perceive ethical or political pressure. Legal experts are especially alarmed that executive orders and working groups are being explicitly tied to investigating people the president views as enemies. In WWII the SS became responsible for implementing Nazi racial ideology, including Identifying, isolating, and persecuting, any groups who opposed the totalitarian dictatorship.
How convenient
The guy named in many Epstein emails is insisting that the Democrats be investigated for being ... in those same said emails.
