From Bill Clinton to feigning ignorance, Republicans would rather not talk about the birthday card

Republicans in the House of Representatives would rather not talk about the “bawdy” birthday note that Donald Trump supposedly sent to Jeffrey Epstein for his 50th birthday party.

The House Oversight Committee had released many of the documents related to the late convicted sex offender regarding his trafficking of girls and young women. But some of the members of the committee don’t want to talk about the card that Trump is alleged to have signed and sent.

“I am so goddamn sick of being asked about a f*****g birthday card,” Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) told The Independent on Tuesday.

    Oh, so you’re tired of being asked why you’re openly defending pedophiles and refusing to hold them accountable? Life is hard. These republicans have got it rough, let me tell you.

      At some point the fault is no longer with that man alone. The inaction of the state to bring justice makes it at fault too. And at some point it is no longer just the state either but the inactions of the general people as well.

      The only justice that will ever be carried out against these pedophiles will be if the guillotine blade drops.

      Remember, the Biden administration sat on these files for four years while they carried out a genocide in Gaza. The victims of Epstein and his rich pedophile friends will see as much justice as the children that starved in Gaza last night.

      If all the “opposition” ever does is point to things they are only there to give the delusion that justice is being done.

        Historically, the US, and it’s citizens, have been just dandy with pedophilia being normal, and encouraged.

      Don’t forget that they probably still talk about “The Clinton Body Count”, Whitewater, Vince Foster, Filegate, Travelgate, and other totally stupid shit from the 90s that the black helicopter crowd were all worked up about for most of that decade…
