Screenshot of a headline and quote from the Financial Times following the 2024 election. The quote reads:

“I feel liberated,” said a top banker. “We can say ‘retard’ and ‘pussy’ without the fear of getting cancelled… it’s a new dawn.”

The migrant workers/slaves who built the city is geopolitics. The dirty money, the sanctions evasion, the uneasy relationships with neighbours, the war UAE funds in Sudan... Anyone living there is exposed to geopolitics. Just now they can't pretend otherwise.

I do not believe the FBI images for a second & neither should you. This is all being orchestrated for their escalation against immigrants and people of color. A MAJORITY of shooters are white, cis, heterosexual men. So, watch the spin, and who is in charge of the information that is being released!

Virginia Giuffre’s family denounces “DAG Todd Blanche’s bizarre interview” of Ghislaine Maxwell in a statement. www.allrisenews.com/p/maxwell-tr...
As the family of one of the most prominent survivors, Virginia Roberts Giuffre, we are outraged. The content of these transcripts is in direct contradiction with felon Ghislaine Maxwell’s conviction for child sex trafficking. During DAG Todd Blanche’s bizarre interview, she is never challenged about her court-proven lies, providing her a platform to rewrite history. 

This travesty of justice entirely invalidates the experiences of the many brave survivors who put their safety, security, and lives on the line to ensure her conviction, including our sister

By moving convicted felon Maxwell to a minimum security, country club prison, the DOJ sends a disturbing message that child sex trafficking is acceptable and will be rewarded. 

The Department of Justice serves the people of the United States. We continue to call upon the DOJ to do its job by investigating and holding accountable the many rich and powerful people who enabled Ghislaine Maxwell’s and Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes.
