HUGE NEWS from the new Epstein files:

Records show that Maria Farmer, who worked for Epstein, filed a "child pornography" report to the FBI in 1996.

The FBI has never before acknowledged that complaint. The case went nowhere, and mass abuse followed.

DOJ broke the law today by refusing to produce all the Epstein files. It also broke the law by redacting information other than to protect victims. Yet, the corporate media is acting that DOJ did us a huge favor.

Stephen iirc wrote a good piece about dependence on Farage's fate being Reform's core vulnerability. I'm on "team lower ceiling" so to speak as long as Reform can't develop the stable party machine needed to produce a wider range of figures alongside Farage that can appeal to various demographics
