The report is shocking in its detail and its implication that Vladimir Putin has basically owned Donald Trump for years, even before Trump ran for president in 2016.

History and Nuremberg 2.0 will NEVER forget this FACT about Republicans pouring billions of dollars into America's first state-sponsored domestic terrorism organization to go after, in Trump's words, "the worst of the worst".

DHS and ICE are hiring the worst of the worst.

The U.S. ranks 40th in healthcare—dead last on this list—yet Congress keeps shoveling billions into ICE. We fund raids, cages, and weapons while people die waiting for care. This isn’t incompetence. It’s priorities. And they’re lethal.

ICE waves one arrest like a prop while communities live under siege. Less than 5% deported are criminals. The rest is fear, raids, and rights trampled to sell a lie called “public safety.” This is terror funded with our money. Defund abuse. #FundHealthcareOverICE

Always attacking the women
A journalist asks about justice for Epstein survivors.
He responds by attacking her; her face, her demeanor, her smile.

When the question is dangerous, he goes after the woman asking it. Not her facts. Not her reporting. Her existence.

And survivors are watching.

So are our daughters.

Wow.
While vetting the Epstein files, the FBI created a list of prominent names mentioned in the documents—and they noted which people had "salacious information" about them in the records. Trump was on the "salacious" list. Bill Clinton was not.

Here is the original draft federal indictment of Jeffrey Epstein for sex trafficking that was prepared by federal prosecutors in 2007, but ultimately tossed aside by Alex Acosta's office to allow Epstein to plea to a much lesser state charge.
