$170 BILLION diverted from healthcare, food & education to build a surveillance state tracking people in homes, schools & places of worship—without oversight. That's not achievement, it's crisis manufacturing. #TrumpsStateOfDelusion

Kash Patel in 2023: “I’m just saying Chris Wray doesn’t need a government funded G5 jet to go to vacations. Maybe we ground that plane. $15,000 every time it takes off. Just a thought.”

1/2 Media and social media have been filled with different takes on the Epstein-Trump connections, many of which have focused on the 2 rich white men, instead of what's most important relating to any sexual exploitation - the impact on the victims.
Flyer for a Webinar titled "EYES WIDE SHUT - The Impact of Sex Trafficking on the Black Community" Under the title the date and time of the webinar are noted (July 31, 2025, 3:00 - 4:00 PM EDT). On the right side it features the black-and-white profile close-up shot of a Black woman's face. On the left side, underneath the heading "Featuring:" are an image each of 2 other Black women  (Stephany Powell, Human Trafficking & Law Enforcement Expert & Dr. Tracey Nichole Sylvester, MD, Gynecological Surgeon & Expert in Gynecologic Consequences of Human Trafficking) The bottom right-hand corner of the Flyer has the logos for The Jensen Project and National Center on Sexual Exploitation, while the bottom-left states "Register Here: bit.ly/EyesWideShutWebinar "

Even if the truth never outs, what more do we need to know about the man who’s bragged and been convicted of sexual assault, has made his sexual prediliction for young girls well known and even publicly lusted for his DAUGHTER? What could be enough worse to grind this administration to a halt?
