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.

It’s outrageous Trump is locking up hardworking community members like Kelly Yu while pretending he’s focused on real criminals.

Venezuela is not completely surrounded by an armada, because Venezuela is not an island.
Also, Venezuela nationalized its oil industry in 1976, when Hugo Chávez was 21 and Nicolás Maduro was 13.
