This image from the Epstein files is a draft press release from August 9, 2019 announcing Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in his jail cell. Not particularly noteworthy. Except that Epstein wasn’t found dead until August 10.

For the record, the U.S. has so far taken in about $136 BILLION from tariffs, which I supposed is better than nothing. Who remembers back to 2024 when our Country was completely destroyed and our military power was obliterated thanks to no awesome tariffs? Don't all raise your hands at once.

According to the Trump Administration, DC’s homeless population is largely responsible for the “crisis” the National Guard is allegedly there to address. It costs $169,000 a day to operate DC’s entire homeless operation. It costs $424,000 a day to have the National guard there.
