Minneapolis Public Schools had to cancel classes the rest of the week to try to keep our kids safe so now many kids who only get reliable meals at school will go four days without them. There aren’t enough words in any language to describe how evil this admin is.

Worth repeating this with every new Epstein document drop. The party of Denny Hastert is the party of Jim Jordan is the party of Matt Gaetz is the party of Donald Trump. Looking the other way and protecting child predators from the law is their brand.

“Epstein’s brother, Mark Epstein, told the FBI in 2023 that Epstein was murdered in his jail cell because he was about to ‘name names.’ Mark Epstein, 71, who has long believed that his brother was killed, also alleged in the tip that President Trump ‘authorized’ the late sex trafficker’s murder.”
Latest Epstein files name Trump multiple times
In the more than 10,000 files released Tuesday, Jeffrey Epstein’s brother, Mark Epstein, said the sex trafficker was killed because he was going to name co-conspirators.

Look, I understand the skepticism, but there are lots of reasons to think that Trump could be cooked.
The Epstein Files almost certainly contain further evidence that Trump sexually abused children. His coalition is already in various stages of fracturing. He’s in a very weak position.
