Streets were empty driving home this evening. Nobody out and about, and everywhere closed. Did see a lot of people buying tin foil earlier, possibly to make hats.

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.
