Appears a hacking epidemic is happening over in the Birdcage. A number of mid range accounts - including Frank Graves of EKOS - have been hacked, & the hackers have, at least in some cases, attempted extortion against the OG account holder.

X seems to have declined to help. Bizarre.

FBI Interviewed Trump Accuser, Epstein Files Show Trump was credibly accused of sexual assault in the Epstein files. It's unclear what became of the DOJ's investigation.

This is a bombshell: One of Epstein's victims accused Trump of sexually and violently assaulting her when she was "13 to 15" and the FBI deemed her credible enough to warrant an interview.

Imagine what that would mean to the price of your house. Several houses on every block would be listed for sale.

Federally employed Albertans would have to relocate. Thatโ€™s your family member, your neighbour, your kidโ€™s coach.

A very well placed source is telling us that at least one policing agency in Alberta is compiling wishlists of individuals they immediately want to detain for forced treatment as soon as the facility is built.
