Nine years ago, at a political event in Brooklyn, I met a rising star, freshman Congressman Hakeem S. Jeffries.
As a Hasidic Jew, I was struck by how warmly he engaged with me, showing a deep respect for my faith and community, something not all elected officials take the time to do. 🧵

March 22, 2017: Sen. Tim Kaine questions Acosta at his confirmation hearing about the Epstein deal, the decision to forgo federal charges, and about its secrecy.
Acosta's answers were obviously absurd, but Epstein's ability to obtain information from the Trump admin is what's mind-boggling.

Jeffrey Epstein had access to Trump WH through his lawyer to get info important for HIS coverup.
Roy Black died 3 months ago, so we'll likely never know how, but it's SHOCKING.

Wait, so most of your announcement video is focused on a conflict thousands of miles away, so why don't you run there?
In all seriousness, Mike, I used to respect you and didn't expect this from you. This seems opportunistic, which I don't care about, and dog whistling, which I do care about.
