Sex trafficking by elites or anyone is moral degradation. What the Epstein class has been doing degrades the entire planet & all of its inhabitants. Too many dismiss the Epstein class crimes wishing they could jet around dismissive of everyone. So they just dismiss.

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

Republicans, MAGA extremists, are saying “socialism” is coming to get you without explaining what they mean as “socialism”. President Truman knew in 1952. This game is old. Republicans today are fascists, selling our country out to Russia & billionaires. Taking your money & jobs, leaving you out.
Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.
—Harry Truman, 1952

This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

Trump has approved a 28-point plan to end the war between Russia and Ukraine. “The deeply troubling details now circulating show what Trump wants: to help the Russian president,” Phillips Payson O’Brien argues, “and to weaken Ukraine, perhaps fatally.”
