Everything the Republicans Don't Want You To Know About the Epstein Files

Hello Everyone!I keep seeing Ellie’s pop up on notes and lives with my other Substack friends. She’s a member of Banner and Backbone and that’s just a great group of wonderful people. Ellie’s been doing a ton of work combing through the thousands of pages of Epstein files. The sobering truth is that plenty of information has already been released that should form the basis of a ton of criminal cases… but as we all know our government seems to be protecting a lot of awful people (that’s because a lot of people in our government are awful people).In our wide-ranging conversation, we covered everything from politics to parenting to writing. This was a lot of fun, and by the time we were done I think we had around 350 people watching (which is fantastic)!It always brings me hope to see so many people show interest and to read so many positive and insightful comments. It’s equally important for everyone to go out and have conversations in their community. Be responsible and be safe, but ask your neighbors how they feel about the direction our country is heading. Ask them how they feel about the way our government is handling the Epstein files.I’m guessing that a lot more people in your community agree with you than you might believe. The first step is discovering how many allies you have. The second step is organizing. The third step is speaking out.Right now, we’re stuck in this "code of silence” that allows abusive people to get away with their crimes.Let’s change that! Bring your friends and neighbors onto Substack and let’s change how our society looks for the better!Ellie offered a bunch of links to all the relevant documents.
