Perhaps you can offer an example of how U.S. national security can be compromised by revealing the names of Epsteinโ€™s participants.

Iโ€™ll wait.

Honestly, the only Reiki I ever tried came with fried rice and a fortune cookie โ€” is that the kind of Reiki you meant?

Ninguna sorpresa. ๐Ÿ˜‰
Un nuevo estudio (y ya van muchos) demuestra que el reiki es una creencia absurda que no sirve absolutamente para nada. No hubo ninguna diferencia entre los pacientes a los que les practicaron reiki y a los que les aplicaron โ€œfeikiโ€( reiki falso). ๐Ÿ˜ˆ๐Ÿ˜ˆ

It is wrong, I think, to normalize what is currently happening in the US. This country has fallen into the hands of psychopaths bent at destroying it. This process will drag us all down, and the further we distance ourselves from it, the better for us.
