Oh, so, suddenly it's a CRIME to fly on a PRIVATE JET with the world's most famous PEDOPHILE and a bunch of UNDERAGE GIRLS who were SEX TRAFFICKED and then FIRE everyone at the FBI who INVESTIGATED YOU and replace them with LACKEYS whose only job is to COVER FOR YOU while you STEAL MONEY from TAX PA

There is no basis to withhold these images under the clear terms of the Epstein Files Transparency Act. None.
WOW: The DOJ has DELETED an image from its release of the Epstein files that shows photos of Trump in a drawer.
Yesterday, we noted that this image — file 468 — likely slipped through the cracks while officials were attempting to hide materials pertaining to Trump.
Now, it’s gone.

people who say “I didn’t vote for this” are admitting, out loud and often in the news, that they were conned by a barely sentient foot fungus. I would take that embarrassment to the grave.
