I wonder what the story would have been this morning if there was no raid

on Bolton's home and office. What would the media have been covering instead? Was it something that trump wants to distract from? Hmmmm....

It's coming to me, the Epstein files were to be released today! At least some of them were promised by Pam Bondi anyway. Now they seem to be just an afterthought and no one is talking about them.

Funny how that works. And works and works and works and works again, isn't it?

Of course he overpromised and underdelivered again, but the media gave him a pass again instead of calling him out.

They keep trying but TSF's involvement in teenage girl sex acts with Epstein and Maxwell is not going away. The truth will out.
