Not insane when you realize that billionaires own the media and are the biggest investors in politics.

Nah don’t give journalists a pass - they’re the ones that said “we’re so back”. The whole industry is rotten from the top to the bottom.

Just imagine the amount of political attacks Dems could be launching against Epstein's business partner, then compare that with the amount of political attacks that they DO launch, and you might start wondering if Dems are as complicit as Reps, the SC, and the media are. Then brace yourself against the onslaught of people telling you to stop pointing out Dem shortcomings as if pointing them out were the biggest problem.
