So, there's two plus minutes of missing videotape at the EXACT time of Epstein's demise. Pam Bondi said it was because the tape resets itself. I called 2 prisons. They have never done that and never will. Get on it, already. How silly it's taken this long.

Trump's election bill tops 50 Senate votes, but Democrats could still block it www.nbcnews.com/politics/con... Biggest Voter Suppression Act in our History. The time for inaction is OVER.

The SAVE America Act has passed the House and enjoys President Trump's support, meaning the Senate's 60-vote threshold is the only thing standing in the way of its becoming law.

There is no drawdown. There is no retreat. ICE is just redistributing their assets to better avoid accountability.
The same day DHS announced the surge would end in Minnesota, ICE activity increased in small towns
The less densely populated areas outside the Twin Cities make it harder for protesters and observers to organize.

Not surprised. Those part of the underbelly of society tend to hang together.
“.. First we need to push back on the lies; then crush the pedo/trafficking narrative; then rebuild your image as philanthropist,” Mr. Bannon wrote to Mr. Epstein in April 2019.

Klein: People are afraid to come into clinics or hospitals because they’re afraid they’ll be snatched. So they’re staying home with acute conditions like appendicitis. They’re not going to their follow-up neonatal appointments. They’re allowing their jaundiced babies to go untreated.

So are they trying to ride your coattails? MSM is having a tough time, while independents are picking up the slack. And, you’re a prime target in this regard.
The New York Times just launched a new "newsletter about the law and the courts." They are calling it "The Docket."
The Times may not care that Democracy Docket has been publishing "On the Docket" and "Daily Docket" for years, but I believe our 400,000 subscribers might.
More on this tomorrow.

We need fighters. Corporate Dems must be put out to pasture.
Some of today’s Democrats aspire to return us to some pre-Trump “normal.” But for millions of Americans, that isn’t nearly good enough.
The country needs a Democratic Party that seeks to create a new and far better “normal”—and that’s willing to fight the people standing in the way. trib.al/dU41NLe
