There are two simple truths about the liberty of a democratic people.
The first truth is that the liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself.

When I was younger, I used to hinge my life over making stupid little bets with myself. “If I make this shot into the wastebasket from across the room, things are going to work out.” By younger, I mean 10 minutes younger.

Trump thinks he owns the Western Hemisphere and that he's going to split the world up with his fellow despots. This is not hyperbole.

“He raped me.”
“Donald J Trump had raped her along with Jeffrey Epstein.”
“She was found with her head ‘blown off’… there was no way it was a suicide.”
Now we’re starting to see why Trump was hiding the Epstein files, and it probably gets much worse.

It’s past time for the DOJ and FBI to follow the money on Epstein as I've been doing for 3 years. The bankers who looked the other way, Epstein’s accountants and lawyers who controlled his cash flow, and the billionaires who funded Epstein’s criminal network.
