What like it was just Epstein and a bunch of children? I'm so confused how people put up with this horse shit

Watching the testimony is pretty hilarious. Patel looks (a) visibly miserable and (b) like the least believable person alive.

I don’t understand Patel’ comments at the end. Why does he call Sen, Schiff a coward? Something about how he was proven wrong about Jan 6th and “Russiagate” as well. I can’t find anything regarding proof of lying regarding him. Is there context to this or is Patel just lashing out with nonsense to stop the grilling? Seems like they have history together.

The bell ringing is fitting. I feel like I’m watching professional wrestling most days now. It’s exhausting. Everything has always gotta be such a spectacle!

a typical fear response is fight or flight. Flight wasn't an option.

Projection always. If we automatically opened an investigation every time they accused anyone of anything, we'd be way ahead of the curve.
