Ghislaine Maxwell’s “secret husband” was American CEO Scott Borgerson.
She brought him into elite social circles and she even put her assets under his control in a trust.

Then he cut her off with a dramatic jailhouse breakup.

Strange twist.
Strange couple. More about him below 👇

We’re watching an entire political party actively protect the single most infamous sex-trafficking operation of our time.

This isn’t just silence—it’s complicity at the highest level.

For being that old it certainly looks nice still. I bet it was striking in its prime. 🥰

Sometimes we need a moment, but if you tune out completely, they win. Fascism doesn’t need your support, just your silence.

Inviting influencers and calling them journalists is part of the playbook.

I stand with Letitia James. She has more courage than our own democratic leaders. She has Taco’s number and that’s why he’s running scared. That’s why he’ll lie over and over. Stop reposting his bs. Make his voice weak. Our leaders need to be more aggressive in this fight! #resist

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

Exactly. "Secretary Kennedy is entitled to his views. But he is not entitled to put people’s health at risk. He has rejected science, misled the public and compromised the health of Americans." wapo.st/3VTALll

Opinion | Six surgeons general: It’s our duty to warn the nation about RFK Jr.

We took an oath to declare dangers when we found them. We’re doing that again today.

The White House Antifa Roundtable is one of the best displays I’ve seen of this-is-how-bad-it’s-gotten — just a sewer of open fascism, dementia, morons and freaks, and incoherent rage.

I feel like a broken record, but I have to keep saying it over and over again: a farmer bailout won’t do much of anything because the market is gone. There will be no incentive to plant next year.

The bailout will help payoff farmer debt to the banks. That’s all.

The rage and disgust I feel literally anytime I need to go back to reference something from the transcript with Blanche. Like she was interviewing for some damned documentary about her own life.

It got brought up during his sentencing. If you search chips on my page you should find it. 🙈

Nobody thinks he’s going to erase the First Amendment with a Sharpie.
The danger isn’t deletion. It is intimidation. You don’t have to outlaw speech to silence people. You just have to make them afraid to use it and we are already seeing that.

Same! Maybe she’ll pull a Diddy and take the opportunity to complain about having to eat chips from a bag.
