Epstein would like a word
NEWS: Asked by NYT if he thinks there are limits to his powers, Trump says:
“…one thing: my own morality. My own mind. It’s the only thing that can stop me.”
John Kelly was right. This is the mind of a fascist.

2. OP is mad about this. Fine. But doxing a PHD student over this is shitty. You couldve blocked their name out and kept the letterhead
