The economy is crashing, we’re at war with Iran, and I’m still not distracted from the Epstein files.

You can take the Ayatollah out of Iran, but you can’t take Trump out of the Epstein files

So after all Trump’s whining about the “Biden autopen”, and forcing investigations, even though he uses one himself, they couldn’t build a case.

Not because they didn’t try. But because there was no case to build.

I examined the rash Trump’s neck and I am positive that it’s a pedophile

Whoops...
Former Russian senator who appeared in the Jeffrey Epstein files and reportedly called Ghislaine Maxwell a “friend” has been found dead in Moscow. Umar Dzhabrailov, 67, was discovered in a residential complex on Monday with a gun nearby.
