What? Elon Musk is paying people to sign up for his Trump PAC. I thought vote buying was illegal. Image
Here's the law. πŸ‘‡ Image
This could be considered payment for registering to vote. I signed up as Karen LooneyTunes to see what would happen, and the next page makes it look like you have to register to vote to get the $47. Image
Providing any incentives (even cookies!) for registering to vote is illegal. Image

Epstein said he would "mimic Kavanaugh" if he had to testify before Congress and say, "Yes, I like pussy." Image
I can't believe Epstein wanted to make this movie. Bannon is pitching it to Epstein. Image
I think Bannon liked Epstein more than Trump. Here, they talk about controlling the European elections. Image

In 2018, Steve Bannon had dinner at Epstein's house, where they appeared to be messing with Slovakia's future. Image
Bannon sent Epstein a Russian article where Alexander Dugin gave Bannon a "shout out." Image
Mark Epstein jokes that Trump "blew" his brother. Epstein and Bannon spend a lot of time together. Image

"I have spoken with a figure who is very close to Amanda who confirmed to me that she recently arrived back in Brazil, and is living in fear."

One thing the author didn't point out is how close she is to the Trumps, and has been for 20 years. 1/

Here they are, recently, at Mar-a-Lago. How did she go from this to "living in fear" in Brazil? 2/ Image
These are the people she flew on Epstein's plane with to Paris on June 27, 2002. The same group flew to the French Riviera (Hyères) two days later. There are at least 3 sexual predators on the plane, with Amanda at 17 years old. 3/ Image

I'm reading this and highly recommend. Christopher Steele got such a raw deal, as did all his sources. 1/ Image
People misread the Steele dossier. It's what I'd call "fluid intelligence" that was collected from dozens of sources, all of whom were saying the same thing.

It was collected and reported in the moment, with urgency. The FBI ignored it for months, which helped Trump win. 2/
They should have announced an investigation into Trump's Russian connections before the election, or at least kept quiet about Hillary's emails if they were worried about the Hatch Act. 3/

Tulsi Gabbard's allegiance is to her guru, Chris.

Chris's cult is financially connected to a Hong Kong-based company (Qi) that has been charged with fraud.

But his ties to China go back to the 1980s. 1/ Image
Chris Butler was kicked out of high school in Hawaii, but claimed he reached enlightenment by age 20. He also had a (pretty bad) rock band.

Eventually, he joined the Hari Krishnas but got kicked out of there, too. 2/ Image
At the same time, across the world in China, a 16-year-old girl claims she heard his rock music (um.... unlikely) and went to meet him in Hong Kong, and then Manila. Not much is known about her.

But this woman, Zhang Huilan (aka Wana Lai), later became his wife and still is. 3/

I'm reading Gabbard's full 114-page document release. Most of it has to do with U.S. election infrastructure. It also covers the U.S. response to Russian election interference. πŸ‘‡ 1/ Image
Her document release contradicts the claims she's making on TV. It's all about how Russia interfered in the 2016 election to help Trump....

She also released the "highly classified" version of this report. πŸ‘‡

Why? 2/ Image
The "highly classified" version is even stronger in its assessment that Putin wanted Trump as president and that Putin historically favors the GOP. 3/ Image
