There is a spot in the 1A broadcast where the journalists are talking about how Trump is acting like a politician with something bad to hide. Another spot in the 1A broadcast they talk about the Communist\/Totalitarian move trying to crush free speech where the frothing crazed masses supporting Trump attack anyone issuing even the slightest bit of criticism for Charlie Kirk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everybody, including myself, missed it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why is the assassination of Charlie Kirk drawing so much furor? Wag the Dog 2.0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump is a convicted felon. The journalists are correct. He is now behaving, with respect to the Epstein files, like a politician with something really bad to hide. Honestly, it appears <a href=\"https:\/\/interestingauthors.com\/blog\/experience\/mole\/\">Putin&#8217;s deepest mole<\/a> is in an absolute panic over the Epstein files. Now, he is desperately clinging to the Charlie Kirk story like a get out of jail free card. Trump has sicked the K-G-used-to-Be bots and online influencers on regular American citizens who have been expressing their First Amendment (1A) rights. Trying to ruin lives and careers so the story in the news isn&#8217;t the Epstein files. He obviously has massive exposure here. Any time it is brought up he tries to change the topic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Collapsing Trump World<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You know it is bad when the nut job Marjorie Taylor Greene signs the discharge petition for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/live\/cpwywe5ee84t\">Epstein Files Transparency Act<\/a>, which needs only 218 votes. Last report I heard, it has 217 votes and someone expected to sign it will be seated soon. It doesn&#8217;t need even one more so-called Republican. (Really Communist &#8211; Real Republicans have nothing to do with Trump. We are all about ending Communism globally, while worrying over national debt)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Marjorie Taylor Greene says she will read names of Epstein accomplices in Congress\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5lXFBxnD0wI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It appears the Communists, masquerading as Republicans, have hit their <a href=\"https:\/\/19thnews.org\/2024\/12\/matt-gaetz-ethics-report-released\/\">Statutory Gaetz<\/a> limit. Trump just didn&#8217;t manage to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brennancenter.org\/our-work\/court-cases\/league-women-voters-v-trump\">take away a woman&#8217;s right to vote<\/a> in time to save himself from a pissed off MTG. Apparently the other female Communists masquerading as Republicans aren&#8217;t moms? The thought of some 30-, 40-, 50+-something dude thinking he was rich enough to shag your underage daughter at will without suffering any consequences should mortally offend someone supposedly supporting &#8220;family values.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lawyers Breaking the Law<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It has never ceased to amaze me the number of crooked lawyers in Trump&#8217;s orbit willing to be disbarred and\/or sent to prison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/gijn.org\/stories\/propublica-exposed-ethics-scandals-us-supreme-court\/\">Clarence Thomas<\/a>, where treating him to luxury vacations, private jet rides, and stays in a billionaire&#8217;s private resort gets you whatever verdict you want. If the Bar which licensed him has even the tiniest molecule of ethics they would be disbarring him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-us-canada-69006455\">Michael Cohen<\/a> actually did got to prison for a bit. I don&#8217;t know if you can be a convicted felon and still keep your law license in New York.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2024\/09\/26\/rudy-giuliani-disbarred-washington-00181183\">Rudy Giuliani disbarred<\/a> and broke given all of the settlement payments for his willful participation in Trump&#8217;s wire fraud scheme of a &#8220;stolen election.&#8221; Trump collected massive donations and Rudy is close to homeless now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/news\/critics-want-u-attorney-general-215431906.html\">Pam Bondi<\/a>, who is looking at disbarment the moment she isn&#8217;t in federal office.

Conduct which would get any other lawyer disbarred can then be acted on. There is a potential whopper that Congress may actually have to prosecute. What you ask? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsweek.com\/bondi-epstein-videos-children-child-porn-fbi-files-2069068\">The Epstein child porn sex tapes<\/a>.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>She added that the many of the videos in the Epstein investigative file \u201cturned out to be child porn.\u201d This material, she added, is \u201cnever going to be released.

She&#8217;s not there to keep Trump out of prison, despite what she may think. She is there to serve the Constitution of the United States of America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Long been a not too hidden secret Epstein trafficked young women for sexual pleasure with his rich powerful friends. Also rumored to &#8220;have video&#8221; on these people. What she is deliberately excluding may very well be the smoking gun that Trump is in a panic over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The women who have come forward, their lawyers, <em><strong>and law enforcement that is not under Trump control or in any Republican dominated state<\/strong><\/em> need to review these films and identify <em>who<\/em> is on them. Keep in mind I&#8217;m a Real Republican and I&#8217;m saying this. I&#8217;m not a Communist masquerading as a Republican like the current Trump supporters.

You miscalculated Buffoon-in-Chief. A not insignificant chunk of that MAGA frothing at the mouth crowd are moms, whom you tried to take the vote from, have teenage daughters. This is now #MeThree. It&#8217;s not about them changing their minds after having sex with a man, but them trying to stop rich old men from forcing their daughters into sexual slavery and getting away with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget, the grandparents have even less to lose. When you&#8217;re north of 80 you measure your remaining time in days, not decades.
