I tried all day to join antifa.
I was thwarted!

•No Substack.
•No Instagram.
•No LinkedIn
•No TikTok
•Not even a lousy Facebook page.

I wonder if Pam Bondi can help me find them.

As I began reading this, I thought immediately to myself, where’s our T-Rex costume in the basement?

Can I ask of anyone: Isn't it extremely likely that much of any potentially incontrovertible evidence--video, photographs, statements, emails, letters, manifests, etc--has already been sanitized or deleted? Or is it that there are multiple copies of said evidence and therefore no point in deleting?

The assumption is there, yes. Never say never.

The cracks have to do with the shutdown though. The Epstein problem is going to be percolating in the background for all of Trump’s term. He’ll be teflon for a few more years, unless midterms work out. And if they avoid healthcare cost cuts/price hikes—that may save MAGA politicians for a while.

It just makes her look like an imbecile.

They should. It’s a break-glass time in our history.

Senate Judiciary Democrats 🇺🇸 @judiciarydems.senate.gov · 1d

Sen. PADILLA: This Justice Department fired a 15-year career prosecutor who put away sex traffickers and transnational terrorists. She was marched out of her office. Why? Because she had the audacity to remind Border Patrol that it should follow court orders.

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in.

Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators.

The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism

In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

Bondi senate hearing had a folder full of notes for attacking the senators

It doesn’t strike me as if you’ve ever tried in life in general.

I wish you had a masters in self respect.

I’m sure she had colds before in those 30 years. It’s could be slightly—or significantly—more serious, where she would want some privacy, which would be understandable. Her sister could have spoke out of turn.

Just saying this is a possibility.

Or she let out information that was still not to be known.
