This might not be popular, however injustice is more rankling

People in the DOJ in every administration since 1996 have some explaining to do about why the investigation and prosecution of Epstein, Maxwell and all those in their sphere was so inadequate. This travesty involved 1,000 survivors over decades of abuse and it appears Janet Reno, John Ashcroft, Alberto Gonzales, Michael Mukasey, Eric Holder, Loretta Lynch, Jeff Sessions, William Barr, and Merrick Garland were all contributors to various degrees. There need to be hard questions answered in the public eye.

and feel no sympathy for ANY abuser of children, human trafficer or the filth who lay their money down. I don’t give a shit how beloved they are, or what party they are in. I DO NOT CARE.

BURN THEM ALL. No more giving rich, powerful men a pass to wipe their feet on the lives of human beings and treat them as disposable amusements.

Some of the power elite were on the island with Epstein committing crimes.
Raping and beating up children.

The rest of them looked the other way.

Why?

Females are the property of men.
Crimes can be committed against females often with no consequences.

They feel entitled to send us to war, control the kinds of healthcare we are allowed to access, feeding us little more than chemicals and platitudes while they keep and devour everything good and fresh in the world for themselves.

More money and more power.

They are addicts destroying everything in their path.
The rest of us are totally expendable.
