The Why Process

'It’s crazy!' Republicans turn on Mike Johnson over alleged bid to block Epstein files An Arizona Democrat who was elected to Congress in September but still hasn’t been sworn into office is gaining new support from Republican lawmakers as House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) faces growing...

Nothing shows how desperate Johnson is to not release the Epstein files more than his adamant refusal to swear in Grijalva to the seat she won weeks ago unless it's his intention to immediately swear in a GOP representive if he wins. It's frankly hard to put into words how sleazy a move this is.

Dumb Money: Billionaire Timothy Mellon Gives Trump $130 Million and Accidentally Ties His Father’s Legacy to the Epstein Scandal The Billionaire, the Strongman, and the Shadows of Secrecy The $130 Million Shock When the Pentagon confirmed it had accepted a $130 million “gift” to pay U.S. troops during the…

Timothy Mellon has poured over $165 million into GOP, $125 million to Trump’s MAGA Inc. Super PAC.

This source claims there are no Mellon flight logs & the Mellon bank isn’t owned by Mellon dynasty, but that the donation is real & raises red flags re Epstein connection. sfl.media/dumb-money-b...

Thomas’ Mellon Bank was largest banking institution in the country outside of New York.

His son, James, escaped military service in the Civil War by paying a substitute. Thomas: "A man may be a patriot without risking his own life or sacrificing his health. There are plenty of lives less valuable."

Paul Mellon is the heir to the Mellon dynasty. When Fortune prepared its first list of wealthiest Americans in 1957, Paul & siblings were among richest 8 people in the U.S., and Paul’s father, Andrew Mellon, presided over the 1920s boom & 1929 Wall Street Crash as the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury.

“Paul Mellon is all over the Epstein flight logs, back and forth to Epstein island." Paul’s son, Timothy Mellon, gave Trump $130,000,000.

“Is Tim Mellon in a position where he doesn't want the Epstein files released because of something around his father?”

Tim’s grandfather oversaw crash of 1929.

Another soup kitchen experienced the same surge as the small one in my area. This one in NYC.

Ours saw an increase from an average of 50 to today over 200 people.

This one in NY saw an increase from max 250 to over 500 at the making of the video.

But by the end of the day it had reached 800.

Thank you to Senator Ron Wyden for letting us know the MAGA Senate Republicans are trying to slide a nationwide abortion ban into the shutdown negotiations.

Hell no! They want to control every part of women’s lives and we aren’t having it.

F the patriarchy.

Congressman Paul Gosar D.D.S. Proudly Serving Arizona's 9th Congressional District

9th Congressional District of #AZ #Arizona gosar.house.gov

Rep. Paul Gosar’s lengthy ties to White nationalists, pro-Nazi blogger and far-right fringe received little pushback for years | CNN Politics Last spring, Republican Rep. Paul Gosar and a small group of volunteers traveled to the southern border city of San Luis, Arizona, to clean up the city’s trash.

“Gosar took a trip to the border with a Nazi: ‘Jewish led colored hordes’ are fighting the ‘White Christian West.’ ‘The US fought on the wrong side in World War II,’ ‘Jewish plans to genocide the German people,’ ‘Holocaust is the original ‘critical race theory.’” www.cnn.com/2022/03/06/p...

“Gosar specifically offered them the possibility of receiving a ‘blanket pardon’. ‘Our impression was it was a done deal, our names came up.
