The #EpsteinFiles *ARE* the #distraction

While democrats & left leaning voters R focused on getting a "list" released that has #Trump's name on it, Trump & his GOP are overthrowing the government in real time

Each day we demand that the list be released, Trump & Mike Johnson are destroying the rights of voters, women, members of the LGBTQ community & more

There's nothing having to do w/Epstein that will harm Trump

I was a child SA victim, but that's not where the focus should be

“Airdrops are costly, dangerous, undignified — and distract from the real solution: opening #Gaza’s gates to sustained truckloads of aid.” our Sam Rose tells @‌skynewsrss.bsky.social.

What’s needed is the safe entry of aid trucks on a large-scale through the #UN, including #UNRWA.

WIST Quotations

A quotation from Terry Pratchett

Sam Vimes could parallel process. Most husbands can. They learn to follow their own line of thought while at the same time listening to what their wives say. And the listening is important, because at any time they could be challenged and must be ready to quote the last sentence in full. A vital additional skill is being able to scan the dialogue for telltale phrases such as “and they can deliver it tomorrow” or “so I’ve invited them for dinner” or “they can do it in blue, really quite cheaply.”

Terry Pratchett (1948-2015) English author
Discworld Series No. 24, The Fifth Elephant (1999)

It was also not clear what precise claims of misconduct #Trump admin officials believe could form the basis of #criminal charges, which a #GrandJury would have to sign off on for an #indictment to be issued.

The development is likely to heighten concerns that the #DOJ is being used to achieve #political ends given longstanding grievances over the #Russia investigation voiced by Trump, who has called for the jailing of perceived political adversaries…

AG #PamBondi has directed the #DOJ to move forward with a probe into the origins of the #Trump – #Russia investigation following the recent release of documents [which unsuccessfully] aimed to undermine the legitimacy of the inquiry that established that Moscow interfered on the Republican’s behalf in the 2016 US presidential election.
