This whole #Epstein thing eerily reminds me of the Jimmy Saville revelations in the UK.

Jasmine Crockett continues to sound the alarm that Trump is in fact a predator. #Epstein

#Musk pivots to a moon city rather than colonize #mars because he knows he's in the #Epstein files and needs a quicker exit from justice

Why at every news conference every journalist isn't asking Trump tough questions about #Epstein is beyond me

Where is anonymous when you need them to hack? Funny how they didn't with Wikileaks and the Clinton emails

Is it me or does this fail the sniff test? Release me and I'll lie under oath you are innocent?

It's kinda funny that the savvy legacy media journalists thought there were no Epstein files and everything of importance had come out.

the issue the conservative movement has with the epstein story is that all those rich, powerful old men didnt marry the children they victimized before they sexually abused them

And I pray you will reveal the truth

Well I wish they abolish the two person child benefit limit and other benefit restrictions that many progressive organizations all say would make a big difference. I just hate the timidity

I'm not playing fantasy football. Starmer is an utter failure look at where Labour is in the polls. The local elections are going to annihilate Labour. You're sleepwalking to disaster

Really! He wanted to run in the by election as Labour candidate and Starmer blocked him

What? Waste only issue? Do you know anything about the origins of the Labour movement about socialism, about the Webbs, the Fabian society, the Atlee
Government the NHS. Protect the UK from who? FFS

Oh and Andy Burnham. That Stalinist intervention to stop him was utter bullshit

Oh wow sweeping statement. I'll give you three things easy things he could do 1) remove the two child limit on child allowance 2) Abolish the benefit sanctions regime 3) free school meals. Bam. Hardly Cronyn socialism but would dramatically affect poor people's lives

Really. Fine govern like you have majority of over 100 and 4 years to an election instead of following every opinion poll then

If you can't get a guard dog and are terrified about #ring cameras I'm reminded of Kevin in Home Alone where he used cardboard cutouts, mannequins, a train set, and music so it looks like lots of people are in the house.

By a few camera the burglars won't know and then you don't have to worry about surveillance
