EXCLUSIVE: Evidence Indicates Jeffrey Epstein Was Key to 2016 Pro-Trump Election Meddling

If he’s innocent let his bent DOJ and FBI investigate the whole thing in public - instead of sweeping it under the carpet.

Last year, multiple mega law firms pledged almost $1 BILLION in “pro bono” legal services to Convicted Felon Trump & his Regime.
I am demanding these firms actually show their work as I don't think they’re benefiting society, but merely helping Trump line his own pockets.
