Trump Demands Speedy Deposition From Rupert Murdoch Because He May Die Before Trial

Trump Demands Speedy Deposition From Rupert Murdoch Because He May Die Before Trial
...This lawsuit arose from The Wall Street Journal’s bombshell article by Khadeeja Safdar and Joe Palazzolo that described an album allegedly compiled by Epstein’s former girlfriend and accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell for his 50th birthday in 2003.

For years and years, QAnon believed Hillary Clinton was running an international pedophile sex ring.

Now Trump is about to pardon the woman actually running one. - Tea Pain

The Trump administration released a memo Monday that aims to protect religious expression among federal workers, outlining that employees can attempt to persuade co-workers about why their religious beliefs are “correct.”

The memo outlined conduct that should not result in disciplinary or corrective action, including displaying in the office bibles, religious artwork, jewelry, posters displaying religious messages and other indicia of religion “such as crosses, crucifixes and mezuzah.”

Former California Lieutenant Governor Abel Maldonado hand-waved away concerns about famine and starving children in Gaza by citing Hamas’s terrorist attacks against Israel nearly two years ago.
