Alt: Zoidberg from Futurama shouts, "Hooray for me!" with his arms shooting up. He has a giddy expression on his face. He is wearing a suit.

Hating black people and believing we are inferior when you and your crew are barely literate and involved in every crime known to man (theft, drug smuggling, human trafficking, pedophilia, bribery, rape, blackmail, fraud) is WILD.

This is who they are. Lest we forget his primary liaison in luring these children was a WW. As long as it keeps them close to money + power their morals + ethics are non existent.
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

Somewhere out there someone who’s the best at what they do is terrified that they have imposter syndrome while a bunch of barely literate pedophiles are very calmly running the world

Ted doesn’t care that Eva slept with Tomás. He’s a cheater! #beyondthegates #btg

No, Naomi... if Ashley still has feelings for Andre, things were never back on track with Ashley and Derek 🙄🙄🙄 #BeyondtheGates #btg
November 12, 2025 at 7:50 PM
Let's see if Ted pulls a Tomas and takes Eva's side no matter what Eva says or does to Kat #BeyondtheGates #btg

Naomi has zero problem with Ashley going after her mom's husband (after Ashley swore she wouldn't) but hates Jacob because he changed and wants kids. Ok. 🙄 #BeyondtheGates #btg
