Oh, Dershowitz supplied a convenient retraction for Virginia Giuffre.
To be very clear, Virginia Giuffre was made to say she mistakenly identified Alan Dershowitz as one of the people who sexually abused her. Here is the proof from this week's Epstein files dropped by the House Oversight Committee.

The Speaker of the House shut the chamber down for two months to block the release of the Epstein Files and the president is huddled in the Situation Room of the White House to formulate a plan to keep them from being released, and I don't know why you crazy libs think there's some kind of cover up.

The bill that the senate passed is being stuffed with lots of things none of us want, need, or voted for. Check the thread and look for what Senator Wyden has to report. 😡
Senator @RandPaul says he’s holding up the spending bill over an attack on the Help industry.
Between this and the @MarshaBlackburn @SenatorHagerty money grab over Jack Smith’s investigation — what else did they slip in? thehill.com/homenews/sen...

Why has the government been closed at all if Senate Dems cave now? Didn't they say that they could not go along with throwing millions of people off health care?
What's materially changed? A *promise* is not action. ALSO fascists lie and I've been told by some Senate Dems that the GOP is fascist.

@slotkin.senate.gov I heard you recently say that the D caucus was divided btw those who understood the grave threat we face and those who don't. If you vote for this you lied about the side you're on.
