I have zero knowledge beyond what is in the press, but at the very least it really *looks* that way.

Republicans thought they were getting people who would expose the Deep State pedophiles with Trump, Bongino and Patel. Instead, they got their protectors. Maxwell just got rewarded with a nicer prison, and in exchange, the pedophiles stay concealed. Hell of a legacy, fellas.

What did the House GOP do for the American people this week?
They proudly passed a bill to kick millions off their health care, slash the household income of people working paycheck to paycheck, and put school meals at risk for millions of kids.
But billionaires? They’re getting more tax cuts.

President Trump is quite literally selling seats to a private dinner and White House tours to foreign nationals for $4 million+ a piece.
Much of the money goes into his own pocket.
This is corruption to the highest degree.

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer,sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.
