The Oligarchical Corridor

the goal and parameters of the fourth interview.
She indicated she was
aware that because she was victimized several years prior, the statutes of limitation of any viable federal violation may have run.
She asked agents,
"what's the point?" The agents explained that all victims of crime should have the opportunity to tell their story; they wanted to provide her with that opportunity should she choose to accept.

DOJ has posted some pages of the missing Epstein files related to the FBIβs belated investigation of Trumpβs participation in Epstein crimes after Epsteinβs arrest and death in custody in 2019, and they are as bleak as you might expect. www.documentcloud.org/documents/27...

Israel is bombarding, literally bombarding, two Middle East capitals, Beirut and Tehran, killing 100s of civilians, and yet the US and UK media continue to portray Iran as the threat to the region.
Israel has nukes, but Iran is the nuclear threat.
We live in Orwellian times.

The Iranian warship was taking part in an international exercise with many other countriesβincluding the United States.
