@repmcgovern.bsky.social

This isn’t some anonymous tip. This is sworn testimony, under penalty of perjury, from someone who said Trump threatened to kill her if she exposed Epstein’s sexual abuse.

The details of Epstein's rape and abuse were widely known and available in 2015.
Uncompromising people could easily find them.

If you're shocked in 2026, it's because you thought the rapes and minor trafficking were not a big deal when your career was at stake.
