Now hear this!

In a sane world, we would be discussing paying settlements to Jeffrey Epstein’s victims and not to the Jan 6th insurrectionists.

That is all.

The abject absurdity of this time in the reign of that orange POS, has shattered every record, it's an ongoing living insurrection, the crimes are breathtaking all day every day.

Make Trump, Musk and all of Epstein's friends pay until ALL their money is gone to those who they have injured.

Facebook is replete with "humorous" comments about the victims of Epstein and of ICE. The people, our people, American people, laugh at Renee Good's and Alex Petri's murders. They smirk and snark at the cold blooded killing of 2 human beings who protested against the encroachment of a fascist police force into their beautiful city.

The spirit of America has grown dark and ugly because a morbidly obese rapist felon was made King by a mob of fools who chose Barabbas over Jesus.
