Rita Law got 30 years for sex trafficking, while Jeffery Epstein got a cushy 16-month deal for sex trafficking. Alex Acosta proved that money, influence, clout, and association with the right people does talk!
I’m just wondering what Indiana’s two senators, Todd Young and Mike Braun, do all day long, when Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell refuses to allow the Senate to vote on anything? I suppose they spend their days just raising money for their next election campaign.
If Donald Trump is a true American as he says, Why doesn’t he pay his fair share of taxes? Why does he defy the Constitution of the United States? Why does he go against the Supreme Court ruling? Maybe because as he has said, “Russia I hope you are listening.”
As we hear more and more information about this Jeffrey Epstein case, it is quite astounding how many layers of law enforcement, in multiple jurisdictions, let this guy off the hook.
Remember when Donald Trump promised not only to eliminate annual budget deficits but to completely erase our national debt in eight years? He’s not off to a good start, having increased the national debt faster than any president in history, by more than two trillion dollars in just slightly over two years in office. And he brags about his “wonderful economy”?
Trump “You’ve worked so hard on the kidney. Very special — the kidney has a special place in the heart. It’s an incredible thing.” Why does nobody love him enough to demand a neurological exam? And clearly, nobody loves the country enough either, which is really shocking.
Amber Alert: Thousands of children are being detained for profit at government run facilities at our borders.
It must be a scary feeling when the person you threw under a bus, gets up and starts talking.
In the entire 20th century, 27 injunctions were issued to stop a national policy by District Court Judges. In the last two years, 37 injunctions have been issued to stop President Trump. Can we make this problem with this administration any clearer?
Kenneth Starr, who was so righteously indignant about Bill Clinton’s affair while he was president, was the same guy that presided over many scandals while he was at Baylor University, AND he was also Jeffrey Epstein’s defense attorney. What a colorful and hypocritical guy that one is.
From the New York Post’s Page Six in March 2016: “When the Russian girls arrive in the city, they already have Jeffrey Epstein’s phone number.”
What has happened to our society? It is beginning to sound like one of those books where you have a sinister secret men’s group that have infiltrated commerce, politics and law enforcement. Only a fearless reporter will crack this.
Attorney General William Barr is accusing the “liberal media” of trying to take down Alex Acosta. Why is he refusing to acknowledge the seriousness of Acosta’s behavior? This is so incredibly inappropriate for the highest law enforcement officer of our nation to defend the actions of guilty people.
Don’t argue with Trump supporters. They know that he’s a liar, they know that he’s guilty, they don’t care that the GOP will take away their healthcare. Trump validates their racism and xenophobia, and to them, that’s worth everything.
It is your duty as as American citizen to speak out against: Corruption, lies, inequality, racism, exploitation, sexism, and environmental destruction. At your work, your neighborhood, your community, your church, your family or your home. Wrong is wrong.
Another swamp creature exposed in the Trump administration. I guess it doesn’t hurt when you donate a million dollars to his election campaign. Money talks and Alex Acosta has no shame.
