Epstein survivor tells CBS News how she was trafficked, and assaulted Juliette Bryant says not long after meeting Jeffrey Epstein, he assaulted her, and she realized, "this is not a modeling opportunity, I've been kidnapped."

β€œAs the airplane took off, Epstein started touching me forcibly in between my legs, and I freaked out. I realized, this is not a modeling opportunity, I've been kidnapped. They whisked me away to the island. I was stuck there. They never arranged any modeling opportunities, I was completely conned."

There is no debating this. Anyone who says otherwise is telling on themselves.

Here's a reminder that we Concentration Camps on US soil, ICE is still unlawfully detaining people at random.

You need to identify all companies that do business with the department of #ICE-Stapo and publish their details so everyone around the world can boycott them. All car companies, rental companies, hotels, fast food stores anything and everything.

There are also claims by the victims that they sedated them with valium (and perhaps other drugs) and gave them birth control (which should only be dispensed by a physician and not to girls that young).

We need new hostage negotiators. Who would negotiate with a regime that won’t even share murder investigation contents on Pretti and Good in the first place. Good people don’t build concentration camps and good people don’t negotiate with nazis.

PFT! This is the latest thing he’s pulled out of his butthole to get a higher approval rating!πŸ™„. My local /state government determines this tax. Heck he tried to deny NJ their Congressionally approved funds for a new NY/NJ tunnel. If he spews it, it’s πŸ’©

Apparently people aren't excited about spending $56,000 per ticket to attend a World Cup game.

Hmmm, what else could be contributing to a lack of hype?

Who would be stupid enough to come to the USA with tickets to watch FIFA and get thrown into a concentration camp for 4 months instead? 😳 People aren’t that stupid! Having to open your phone ( expose all your personal info) to gain entry or get arrested in USA isn’t worth it.North Korea anyone?

He had a joke in his stump speeches about how, if he were to walk on water, the headlines the next day would read β€œJesse Jackson Can’t Swim”

I thought about this when I saw him at the DNC on the jumbotron. I'm glad Jesse Jackson and John Lewis lived to see Barack Obama. And Jesse got to see the first Black woman presidential nominee for the Democratic Party. Kamala Harris doesn't exist without him (or Barbara Jordan).

Jesse Jackson, civil rights leader, dies aged 84 A trailblazing figure in the civil rights movement and Democratic politics, Jackson championed the rights of Black, poor and working-class people with his β€˜rainbow coalition’

Jesse Jackson also used his organizing skills to build Black political power w/his Presidential campaigns:

registering Black voters making them the base of the Dem Party

training the next gen of Black politicos (eg, Donna Brazile)

Rest easy now sir

A photo of Rev. Jesse Jackson speaking during an interview in July 1983.

Reverend Jesse Jackson was one of America’s greatest patriots. He spent his life summoning all 
of us to fulfill the promise of America and building the coalitions to make that promise real. 

A son of Greenville, South Carolina, Reverend Jackson first rose to the national stage as one of the young leaders of the Civil Rights Movement. 
His presidential runs in 1984 and 1988 electrified millions of Americans and showed them what could be possible. From Washington, DC to the Bay Area, from the Mississippi Delta to Appalachia, from South Africa to the South Side of Chicago, Reverend Jackson gave a voice to people who were removed from power and politics. He let us know our voices mattered. He instilled in us that we were somebody. And he widened the path for generations to follow in his footsteps and lead.

Jesse Jackson was an early and ardent supporter of gay rights. In fact, on July 17, 1984 at the DNC in San Fransisco, the first speech EVER at a national political convention calling for gay rights was delivered by none other than Rev. Jackson himself.

"The dream only makes sense if it's connected to the broken promise that had been unfulfilled for 100 years."

Jesse Jackson spoke to Democracy Now! shortly after the unveiling of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial in Washington, D.C.

Video: Jesse Jackson Dies at 84 The Rev. Jesse Jackson, the civil rights leader and impassioned orator, died on Tuesday at 84. He was hospitalized in November for a rare neurodegenerative condition.

Jesse Jackson was 26, the youngest person on that balcony when Dr King’s was murdered.

He spent the rest of his life keeping Dr King’s dream alive.

Thank you Jesse Jackson.

Love to his family and friends. πŸ’”

Ossoff: "Among today's false prophets are the election deniers who indulge this president's obsession with overturning the 2020 election. Hear me when I say this -- they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission."
