I really enjoyed the book launch for my book on Habeas Corpus this Tuesday. Thanks to every one who came out, in particular Judge Hogan of the Supreme Court. I hope everyone present had a good time, I know I did!

Very disappointing to see the globalist pedophile cabal making inroads in what has traditionally been a hardworking illuminati shape-shifter constituency.
