The Epstein bill is headed to Trump’s desk as we speak.
So, what now? Well, a lot of panic, it seems. I have seen every single possible worst case scenario all over social media in the last hour, so let’s go through this step by step. My only request, read the whole thing before commenting.

If you are able to look at this and still not see the Gestapo. You have not only failed at the Christian you say you are.

I used to think it could never get worse than Bush/Cheney. Does this mean it can worse than Trump/Vance? Brace yourselves for Barron Trump and the fortune he's going to inherit. Taxing the rich is a matter of national security and sovereignty.

Jamal Khashoggi was employed by an American news company @wsj.com
He worked as a journalist in America.
He was a permanent resident of the US.
Just read below what the Saudi Crown Prince did to him.
This is what Trump is glorifying.

The Saudi Crown Prince had Khashoggi dismembered in the Saudi embassy in Istanbul.
Dismembered while still alive.
But Khashoggi gave his phone to his fiancee and went in with his Apple Watch recording.
His watch was connected to his phone.
It captured the gruesome audio of his brutal killing.

Most of us have no idea how bad it is inside ICE detention centers because they have kept it hidden. Then a truth teller shows up and says it plain.
The conditions are filthy. The treatment is inhumane. The abuse is Systematic and routine.
