Now that members of Congress are able to see what was redacted they are learning how Todd Blanche failed to comply with the law in countless instances, and it’s now about to get real because what DOJ was hiding is the most incriminating stuff.

The ruling comes after the GOP-led state election board rejected students’ request to open such sites, including at the nation’s largest HBCU.

THIS IS SICK!

Epstein’s victims say Ghislaine Maxwell was worse than Epstein. She groomed and delivered girls to him.

Now she pleads the 5th across the board & offers to clear Trump’s name in exchange for clemency.

Send her evil ass back to doing hard time instead of the cushy camp she’s in now!

This viral video of Vance getting booed at the Olympics should have Europe's far right shunning him as a liability.

But instead, Orban has Vance coming to Budapest to "help" him get re-elected..

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

Bannon knows too much about Trump and Epstein, so Blanche is taking very good care of him to keep him quiet just like with Maxwell. Blanche is the lynchpin- he has assumed full authority given to him by Trump to protect the worst of the worst.
