👇Duh. Every member of tRump's criminal administration should resign. As should tRump. Impeach and remove tRump now, and all of these criminals will soon be washed away from the stain they have laid upon America.
Massie on Howard Lutnick: "He should just resign. Three people in Great Britain resigned for less than what we've seen Howard Lutnick lie about. He clearly went to the island, if we believe what's in these files. He was in business with Jeffrey Epstein."

They allowed the names of the victims to be released, but they redacted the names of the rapist pedophiles. Such a tRump thing to do.🤔
Good.
Hiding the names of people asking for 10 year old girls is fucking disgusting.

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.
He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

Because he's racist.
