Farage is linked not only to Epstein money but Russian money that’s been used to push through Brexit & destabilise our democracy.

Government-sanctioned censorship of these newspapers was widespread. By the 1850s, every Southern state had laws barring the circulation of anti-slavery material. Postmasters would intercept & destroy any copies of abolitionist newspapers, pamphlets, or journals that made their way down there.
