After Jan 6 can go to The Hague with Trump when this is all over
Lawrence is the atypical smug leftist malcontent who wouldn’t know reality if it punched him in his punchable face.
Three biggest questions of Trump’s war against Iran:
1) Did Israel war criminal Netanyahu force a weak Trump to bomb Iran?
2) Did compromised Trump bomb Iran to help Putin with oil revenues & Russia’s war against Ukraine?
3) Did yet another Republican President force US into Middle East war by manufacturing false evidence, or to distract from Epstein sexual abuse that incriminates Trump?
Duh. Don’t you get it. The GOP is all in on establishing a king or more likely a dictator. The only way they can retain power is by eliminating democracy and the republic. The United States of America will not continue. They will rename the country just like they renamed the Gulf of Mexico. SCOTUS will probably succumb to the monied pressure and go along as well. Imagine six white supremists hold all of our futures in their hands. Doesn’t that bother you.
In 2016, James Patterson wrote an informative book, “Filthy Rich,” an expose about the shocking story of Jeffrey Epstein. Explains so much that people are grappling with even today. Well worth reading this book.
