Trump needs closure on this matter.
It has been haunting him.



They are one.






Epstein will take down the Trump-Epstein sex, blackmail and money laundering empire, world leaders (it STARTED with a prince), the entire blackmailed GOP, and who knows? Maybe 5 random people.

9. My gov. Greg Abbott just handed our data over without a second thought

I'm surprised he didn't hand it over sooner.

And my county judge Tim OHare is a crooked, corrupt, and ex party chair. He controls where polling locations are. My community has been left out of any early voting locations. This is the first time this has ever happened. I have to leave my community to vote early. Not happening.

We have a run off currently being conducted and I will wait for the election day to cast my ballot.

I always vote in person now, but usually early.

I hope they don't mess it up but, no matter what,
I will still vote.

Of course this is how an organized crime works. That's because the (R)'s are an Organized Criminal Syndicate.

And since they're state charges, the orange blob can't do a damn thing.
