You can call the Epstein files a hoax.
Or you can redact them.
You cannot do both, Bondi.
Release the FULL unredacted Epstein files.
Survivors deserve the truth. ⚖️

I say again - take this to heart
ANYTHING that can be built can be disassembled
ANYTHING that has been destroyed can be rebuilt
This is the cycle we are in. We build light - they try to bring the dark.
It is a forever bargain for the good of the world that we keep working.
There is no giving up

Ending 287(g) deals between local police and ICE isn’t radical - it’s NECESSARY.
Courts found 4,421+ illegal ICE detentions since Oct 2025.
Due process exists because power gets abused.
Maryland chose the Constitution over chaos.
This is why state & local elections matter.
