Whenever you hear #Trump lie again. when you hear him and his crew break the law again. When they break or disregard a treaty signed and voted into law. When valuable contracts go to his wealthy donors. When money goes from those. that need it to those that barely notice the extra money.

Large containers of sulfuric acid Epstein had delivered to his island after being tipped off may point to atrocities that prove too much for the public to handle. There are mentions of murder involving Trump and disposing of bodies in the files. Sulfuric acid takes care of dead bodies, incl bones.

Epstein made videos to blackmail people. Which means it should be easy to identify the people in them. Which is why Trump ordered Pam Bondi to not release them.
