Julie K. Brown is a reporter for the Miami Herald who did groundbreaking work on Epstein beginning in 2018, including groundbreaking work on the disgusting coverup by Alex Acosta.

Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.

Are you kidding me? This is something I'd write if I was attempting to parody the style of journalism that hand waves away the overt actions of a fascist.

We find beauty not
in the thing itself
but in the patterns
of shadows,
the light
and the darkness,
that one thing against another creates.”

DJT on claims that UA targeted Putin: "I don't like it. It's not good. You know who told me? President Putin told me about it. I stopped Tomahawks. I didn't want that. You're saying maybe the attack didn't take place. It's possible too, I guess. But President Putin told me this morning it did."
Lavrov claims Ukraine tried to assassinate Putin, saying 90+ drones targeted his Novgorod residence on Dec 29 and were shot down.

If you're going to drop into every post and reply "So what? Who's going to do something about it?", the answer is YOU. YOU are going to do something about it. YOU are the consequences. Stop waiting for someone else to save you.

“A prosecutor is more likely to get struck by lightning then they are to go into a grand jury and walk out empty handed without an indictment.” @lawyeroyer.com explains how DOJ prosecutors are embarrassing themselves in order to perform for Trump as they fail to re-indict Letitia James.
