            I just sent that to my Trumper buddy. Like we’re crazy for empathy and protesting, while he forgot about diapers and ear bandages.

      And yet they are not backing down. All I can think is that there are a hell of a lot of them in the Epstein files and Trump has them by the balls.

            How can you even know that? The most effective intelligence agents are the ones that don’t get caught/killed.

              Of course, I don’t know that. You asked me what I think. My opinion is that he was the most effective.

Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil

Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.

Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

7. No duplicate posts.

If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
