I don't believe Epstein is going to be the magic solution [View all]

After months on end of Mueller Time, Jack Smith, Garland, etc., none of which stopped us from ending up where we are now.

I believe the only thing that will be effective will be a massive turnout in the midterms, massive turnout at No Kings, and enough pain for it to sink in for most Americans to realize these people want to take everything they have and leave them to die.
