A little help for MAGA influencers still screaming at Trump's fixer--err... AG--for not releasing ALL of the Epstein files:

In the unaccountable regime you've helped build and empower, ONLY one person can make that happen.

And his name is not Pam Bondi.

MADELEINE DEAN: The president is unhinged. He's unwell

JOHNSON: A lot of folks on your side are too

D: Oh my god, please. That performance in front of the generals?

J: I didn't see it

Ty Cobb: "The simple theme is rewriting history. Trump wants to rewrite history so the next generation may not know that he incited a violent insurrection... America needs to learn from the mistakes that we've had. And one of the biggest mistakes that America ever had was reelecting President Trump"
