Makes you wonder what they’re REALLY doing with your kids’ class pictures.
This is outrageous. School photo giant Lifetouch is owned by Apollo Global Management co-founded by Leon Black, a major Epstein backer. Now we learn Apollo’s CEO, Marc Rowan, also had Epstein ties.
No wonder districts are canceling picture day.

Howard Lutnick misled the American people about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein because he didn't want to admit he continued interacting with Epstein even AFTER Epstein was convicted of soliciting a minor.
It's a disgrace. Lutnick needs to resign as Secretary of Commerce.

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

Stop asking if they’re “rigging the election.”
They. Already. Are.
But the most dangerous part isn’t the mechanics. It’s the message.
They’re doing it in public to make you swallow the real lie:
That voting is pointless.
If they can get you to quit before Election Day… they don’t even have to win.
