This is the interview Donald Trump didn’t want us to see.
Trump’s FCC and Bari Weiss’ CBS refused to air James Talarico’s interview with Stephen Colbert.
They’re worried we’re about to flip Texas.

DONALD TRUMP: “I’ve been totally exonerated…”
REALITY:
• The DOJ has been shielding him.
• Multiple lawsuits, court documents, and allegations in the files name Trump.
• Not charged is not the same thing as exonerated.

Oh, and animal heads come in all sizes as well - left: large limestone sculpture head, right: miniature head carved from limestone.
And look at these details! 😱 Honestly, if someone would've told me originally they're just 5,000 and not 12,000 years old - I would not have doubted that.

As every media outlet promotes Nigel Farage and his Reform company, as we are told they will undoubtedly form the next govt, it is worth reminding ourselves of a few ‘unmentioned’ outcomes.
But hey …. go ahead and place your X in the box. Coz that’s what the media tells you.
