The Republican-led House Oversight Committee released a report Tuesday detailing how the Department of Justice mishandled investigations into sex offenders Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, failing to interview witnesses.

“The crimes committed by Epstein after 2005 could have been prevented and justice served had it not been for the repeated failures of law enforcement and federal prosecutors,” the 136-page report states.

        Nope Epstein was a Mossad operative conducted a Mossad operation to compromise world leaders. It’s one entity.

          That’s every anti-dem politcal ad I saw in the last 2 months.

          Voted against the big bs bill, which included penalties for housing immigrants and trans.

          The ads: “They voted for taxpayer funded housing for illegal immigrants and trans surgeries for children!”

            “They voted on increasing the income taxes* to generate trillions in revenue!”

Like…we already can’t afford groceries now and those tax hikes are for rich ass people who got their taxes drastically cut

        That’s not what they meant; they’re saying that US politicians prioritize Israel and the Epstein class before US citizens.

        I think they’re saying the interests of the American public come third in the eyes of The System, after the interests of Israel and the Epstein class.

        I also, I have no influence on North Korea, so however bad it is, it is not as directly relevant as what goes on in my own country. See: whataboutism.
