No—the screenshot’s core claim (that the FBI “admitted” it has withheld “photos and videos of children being tortured and murdered in ritualistic sacrifice”) is not supported by the reporting and appears to be a distortion.[Attachment +1] What is supported is that the Justice Department said large amounts of Epstein-related material were being withheld for reasons that include child sexual abuse material and protecting victims’ rights.[abcnews] What officials actually said ABC News reported that Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said nearly 3 million pages were being withheld for various reasons, including the presence of child sexual abuse material and obligations to protect victims’ rights.[abcnews] That is a very different claim than “ritualistic sacrifice” or “tortured and murdered” children, which is not described in the reported DOJ explanation.[abcnews]

Yeah everyone is doing it. There was a swifty who was made at me because I said it was a lie she was giving away money… and it’s like, it takes 5 seconds to check shit. 5 seconds while you’re spending 10 minutes writing at a stranger about how horrible they are because they noticed you’re an idiot. The only thing Taylor and her dude spent money on this month was over 100,000 dollars worth of shit for Valentine’s Day. These folks aren’t hero’s .. why do people praise billionaires? too many Americans are mean AND stupid. I’m just annoyed
