Katie Phang: "[Todd Blanche] says the Privacy Act has to be read in conjunction with the Epstein Files Transparency Act and that it's totally proper for him to hide and obfuscate and protect the identities of enablers, rapists, traffickers of children. He thinks that's fine."

Fair is fair. I REALLY do not want Trump to die of a heart attack or stroke. I REALLY want him sent to a PRISON CELL with a sentence that means he'll be there until his death! We all need JUSTICE for all his heinous CRIMES!

How is it not news when the president nods off in public meetings and press conferences dozens of times? If you follow independent media, you see it and know about it. But why hasn’t CBS, NBC or ABC showed a montage of it on their evening news? They simply refuse to ever show it.
