Harris | Walz War Room (Text JOIN to 30330)
Is anyone going to ask Donald why he was flying on Jeffrey Epstein's plane on Saturday?



The "war room" is an unverified account, FWIW.

I don't know who owns that plane, but there must be a record of that. Check the tail number.

Something else I bet few Americans know about is how Bill Barr's dad hired the college drop-out Jeffrey Epstein to teach at the exclusive college prep academy, The Dalton School in Manhattan.



The Ties That Bind Jeffrey Epstein, William Barr & Donald Trump

Todd Neikirk
Hill Reporter, May 19, 2019

During Attorney General, William Barr’s confirmation hearing, he was mostly peppered with questions about how he would handle the Mueller Report. Senator Ben Sasse’s (R-NE) questioning, however, diverged from the pack. Sasse asked Barr about the lenient sentence given out to billionaire pedophile, Jeffrey Epstein. The future Attorney General told Sasse that he would look into the matter.

This, however, was not the first connection between Barr and his family and the disgraced pedophile. In 1973, Barr’s father Donald, the headmaster at Manhattan’s Dalton School, hired Epstein as a calculus and physics teacher.

While hiring Epstein, a noted mathematics genius, was not strange on its face, the hire was unusual for a number of reasons. Epstein had not earned a college degree as he dropped out of New York’s prestigious Cooper Union. The other odd circumstance was that the new teacher was only 20 years of age.

Apparently, the hire was a successful one. The New Yorker wrote in a 2003 profile on Epstein, “he was something of a Robin Williams–in–Dead Poets Society type of figure, wowing his high-school classes with passionate mathematical riffs.” Epstein’s mathematical skills caught the eye of Bear Stearns’ chairman, Alan “Ace” Greenberg, whose son attended the Dalton School. Greenberg hired Epstein as an options trader and the former teacher was able to amass a fortune.

Almost forgot: Epstein also claimed Bill Barr was in charge of the operation, not Dimdonnie.

Especially given what we now know about Epstein and his proclivities.

Loving 'BLOCKBUSTER' headlines, why is the MSM media giving a collective 'pass' to what should be a treasure trove of smutty, evil 'BLOCKBUSTER' headlines!
