The felon President is using the military on civilians simply b/c of the Epstein files & hates transparency.
Pam Bondi & the DOJ have been redacting his name since August when they received the files.

โTicking Time Bombโ: A Pregnant Mother Kept Getting Sicker. She Died After She Couldnโt Get an Abortion in Texas.
Walker is one of several women ProPublica found with underlying health conditions who died when they couldnโt access abortions.
This Texas woman developed preeclampsia, leading to still-birth. She DIED, leaving her young son behind.
This happens while an all-male panel in South Carolina is deciding whether women should be charged w/ murder for their pregnancies.
Abortion is healthcare.
How many more women have to die?

Jezebel politics. โNothing says Iโm not worried about the Epstein files like telling a female reporter, โQuiet, Piggy!โ
And yโall wondered why her Christmas trees at the WH were spray painted black. Why she plowed up the Rose Garden.
Why she wears โI donโt care, do U?โ jackets.
Even she hates Trump. And, sheโd tell you so if there wasnโt an NDA to keep her โpiggyโ mouth shut.

Is anyone surprised the DHS under trump isnโt going after child predators anymore? They need all their resources to go after legal immigrants, rip families apart and put minorities in concentration camps.
