Mrs. Betty Bowers' Bluesky posts today

For an attorney to resort to extortion to clear his client isn't ideal.

For an attorney to undertake that extortion expressly and in a public is incredibly stupid.

In an email to Michael Wolff while Wolff was writing an unflattering exposé on the Trump administration, Jeffrey Epstein states that people who had dinner with Trump were concerned about his dementia. He was wearing too much makeup and didn’t recognize old friends.

THIS WAS ALMOST TEN YEARS AGO.

is that every one in his circle also knows this.

Worse still, is that we have a corporate media system that knows it. They have convinced (and continues to convince) millions of people to support him.

Nancy and Regan’s handlers basically kept him under wraps and quietly exited at the end of his term. He wasn’t threatening allies and Greenland or having late night rants.

Now, there is no attempt at shielding by better minds. If anything there’s an incredible enabling of Tump and sane washing by the M$M.

The next Democratic leaders really need to settle some scores IMHO

Maxwell answers questions or she will be immediately sent to a high security prison. The most notorious women’s prison in the country.

Should probably throw in a perjury/suborning perjury charge as well.
