I just started "Queen Mother" by Ashley Farmer and I'm wondering how the Audley Moore of the book will compare to the Queen Mother Moore I've imagined based on listening to elders. Only one way to find out!

Having spent some time in my life reading comments on the internet, should we just call it? Is it time to give up? Are they just going go forever think the word "biased" does not exist, and it's just "bias" from here on out?

"NO stupid your just bias"

Yes, correct. That's right.

I just wrote an article about this and decided not to publish it yet. It is in the DOJ files (file got renamed after originally published and taken down. It’s online now). But too many unknowns about whether the letter itself is real or not. Some additional info though:
DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar:

"Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

Andrew Johnson’s 1866 Veto of the Civil Rights Act set the template for the language of racial inversion, when he claimed “the bill was made to operate in favor of the colored and against the white race.”

Assertions of white victimization have been central to backlash rhetoric since the Reconstruction Era. JD Vance’s claim at the Turning Point convention that “you don’t have to apologize for being white anymore,” fits into this tradition.

Bobby Nunez was arrested and prosecuted for "brazenly towing an ICE vehicle" according to the U.S. Attorney. He towed the vehicle during the arrest of a TikTok influencer in downtown Los Angeles on August 15th.

After a 4-day trial, he was acquitted! His lawyers were two Deputy Public Defenders. ✊🏼
