Hundreds of kids are still detained.

It’s masquerading as a bipartisan event of prayer, when really it is about Christian nationalism and power - which those who are part of the Fellowship, the organisation behind the NPB, feel like they have a birthright to. @jeffsharlet.bsky.social went undercover in the early 2000s - read his book.

Anyone accused in the Epstein files could publicly make a detailed statement today, using their wealth and connections to tell the world that what is in the files is true and that there needs to be a deeper investigation. Their silence makes them part of the cover-up.

"Even Howard Latnck, never one to shy away from a cheeky remark, had no answer ready for a provocative question. Only Donald Trump was relatively composed and even made himself available to the reporters for a conversation, but they weren't really happy with this solution."
