I'm sure at some point she has said she has evidence stashed away to prevent that from happening.

One thing that a lot of folks don't seem to get is that people in illicit groups - like, say, a group that might (hypothetically) have parties on an island where all sorts of otherwise criminal acts might take place - live in a sort of mutually-assured destruction. Everyone has enough dirt on everyone else to ensure nobody blabs.

Which is, I guess, why Trump is suddenly defending Bill Clinton and why the Clintons are so adamant about a public hearing. I think this is them telling other people involved in the case that they are willing to choose the nuclear option if people come after them.

Also, it's making a HUGE statement that "We know this is going to hurt him more than it hurts us." They're playing the grand old game of Chicken, and they know exactly who is going to flinch.

So according to some sources and I am aure we will get more on this in the coming days, now that lawmakers were able to see the unredacted files, the release of the Epstein files was done in a way to minimise Donald Trump's involvement. According to some new estimates Trump is mentioned somewhere between 950.000 and 1 million times in the full set of files.

If it had been the PM of Australia in those files a million times, that would have 100% brought down the entire government. We'd be looking at new elections after pretty much everyone resigned.

Just seen this video, and it makes me sick. It breaks a few laws already and the women is so stupid.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1goVcjpEeXA

Basically, she is a teacher, and she reported a child to ICE (well someone pretending to be ICE) as the parents of that said child works in one country, the youngster was born in America. (birthright citizenship) (small edit, the child in question is 6 years old)

So this women takes a look at the child's file to find out where they have come from. (with should be illegal anyway)

Its pretty sick that we have such people, I personally hope the woman loses her job. But this is the state on what America is becoming. Same thing happened in Germany.

It's based on a story of a comedian who created a fake ICE-hotline.

But besides that, yeah - it's kind of telling how flawed the mindset of MAGA / far-right followers is. It's basically a lot of baseless assumptions and squealers, the best friends of facist regimes.

Maybe you should watch this video, it shows two instances of Trump having physical and mental issues.

the first issue is clearly dementia. where he slurs his words and goes off topic. He been doing this more and more. Only recently is main stream media catching up with this.

The second, again, pretty serious, he sleeping on the job. Remember that this is the man who went after Biden for sleeping, calling him "Sleepy Joe" Either you don't know what dementia is, or perhaps you don't understand that regardless of your views, he mental state is deteriorating. "Cognitive decline"

And both of those events happened very recently. And on top of that, a few health experts says similar, as they know the symptoms and what to look out for.

And his state of mind is going downhill fast.

Dude, you're posting an 8 minute talking head video about 54 seconds video, where Trump has like 5 seconds total of closed eyes over dude talking boring stuff.

The only thing worth acknowleding here is that yes, we've seen exactly the same sh*tty tactics towards Biden - that's why I don't buy it anymore.

Did you not see the LIVE at the top of the screen? if it was boring where was he even there? But its not the only video that points out those flaws. considering Trump has been catch napping on a few occasions already. IN press briefings. and other places. If he can't keep is eyes open, he has no business being there.

Plus ie posting around 4 AM eastern time like a mad man. So he not sleeping right. That isn't healthy at all. Especailly for someone his age. Stop trying to turn a blind eye to this. And his dementia issues. He is getting worse. and a people are getting more aware of this.

Edit

After months of denials. he finally admitted sleeping on the job

https://newrepublic.com/post/205695/tru ... t-meetings

See!

And this has been steadily getting worse.

In other news, Looks like congress is shutting down again, due to a funding issue with DHS. So MAGA Mike has told republicans to go home. Just got to laugh at this side of the pond, when the GOP can't even govern.

Well Noem has gone on camera to say the quiet part aloud, "The right people voting" And so they are broadcasting their intentions to have the midterms rigged. It's goodbye to democracy full stop now.

American companies are starting to hand over user information of people who criticise ICE online to the American government.
