This article brought tears to my eyes.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

If you were hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein and hurting children, I don't care WHO you are, or what party you belong to.
If you hurt kids, you don't belong to ANY party except the pedo party.
And you belong in prison for life.

The White House has been caught.
The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.
In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.
