I know I'm the wet blanket here, but all the news of Epstein serves no purpose, and it's just going to hurt us in the end

We're falsely assuming that the release of Epstein info will lead to justice, consequences against those who committed crimes

That's not the country we live in anymore

Who organized the "No Kings" rally in Salt Lake City?

We really don't know.

My investigation led me to a Wyoming shell corporation and someone named "Michael Andaman" who may or may not exist.

So, the Trump admin is going to pay Iran nearly $40 Billion to not develop a nuclear weapon?

Sounds kinda familiar

Ref: No Kings Protest

"The “peacekeeper” term itself is not recognized as a formal designation of any role by the Salt Lake City Police, and those who served in support roles at the protest are not “overseen, sanctioned, or trained by the SLC Police Department.”"

In a nation where justice is a service, the truly faithful don’t need repentance—they just need ratings
The orange felon pardoned corrupt Virginia Sheriff Scott Jenkins who was convicted of bribery and fraud, now he pardoned Todd and Julie Chrisley who defrauded banks.

Because nothing says law and order like a felon gifting pardons to other felons for their loyalty. Pure fascism.

Seems to me like any decent businessman could look at the threaten tariffs, pull them back, threaten again ping pong game and couple that with the viral over-reactive, panic buying trend we've seen the last few years.
Trump delays his 50% EU tariff threat, until July.
He says it’s to “buy time for negotiations.”
But this isn’t resolution, it’s pressure tactics in slow motion.
My prediction? No deal by July. Just another cycle of chaos leveraged for headlines.

There's a difference between a "conspiracy theory" and a hypothesis

Conspiracy theorists cling to their beliefs as fact, regardless of the lack of evidence, or evidence that proves the contrary

People who generate a hypothesis accept that it's unproven, and are willing to accept contrary evidence
I really don’t like or support unfounded conspiracy theories, but in this case I think it’s possible that this was a set up.
