I think maybe the remarkable part is that the US Attorney tried to indict six Democratic elected officials (and veterans) who made a video saying that everyone should follow the law.

Police in Bloomington, MN just announced that one of the guys they arrested in an underage sex trafficking sting was a **background checker for ICE agents.**
He had a high security clearance in the Trump administration... and he was caught trying to abuse children. Sickening.

Damn, we removed all the places kids could go to socialise, then destroyed all kid centric hang out websites and games and then we banned them from social media and we're surprised that they find friendship in a positive reinforcement robot?

McGraw Hill textbooks, Hostess twinkies, Regent Seven Seas Cruises, the Jacuzzi brand (for a bit), and Chuck E Cheese, the connection is a private equity pedophile.
They lent $184 to Kushner in 2017 for Chicago slumlording, they own private military contractor Constellis, they own ADT, they bought Hostess in 2013.
They bought McGraw-Hill in 2012.
Apollo Management Group, the former CEO of which Leon Black, who is in the Epstein files. He paid Epstein $158 million.
They own Qdoba, among tons of other stuff.

One of the results of corporate consolidation is that now every company is actually just the same 5 companies, and all 5 are owned by Epstein associates.
Like, *one* high ranking exec is found in the Epstein files and bam, that's like 200 seemingly totally different products and brands.
As Trump's DHS leaders cry to Congress this morning about how deadly Minnesota is for immigration agents, we updated our tally of people ICE and CBP agents have killed since last January. It's up to 25.

Schumer said repeatedly that his foremost goal is to serve Israel, a genocidal state. He sees what ICE does as normal and good, just like he sees what Israel does to Palestinians as normal and good. He spent his life excusing evil. He will not help innocent people; he is there to help their abusers.
