Before the conspiracy gurus get too worked up, this is not unusual.

Spent cases - rather than projectiles - are often a better guide to matching a firearm to a crime , but that’s certainly not infallible either.

Got to admit, there’s some odd things about this one though. A bullet fragment can be easily explained.

I’m no conspiracy theorist, and haven’t bothered looking too hard, but this one doesn’t feel like the guy they’ve got was acting alone or may not even have fired a shot.

Don’t those people have any sense of shame?

What did that trash bin do to deserve that?

Question:

Is this the Answer?

Wikipedia extract
Lownie (in his book Entitled) claims Andrew and Sarah had both met Jeffrey Epstein prior to 1999, despite Andrew’s claims to the contrary.[2] He also raises the possibility of Epstein passing information on Andrew and his other high-profile friends to Russia, Mossad, Saudi Arabian authorities and Muammar Gaddafi’s Libyan intelligence services.[2] Included in these references to Jeffrey Epstein was the claim he had an intimate relationship with Melania Trump (née Knauss) a year before she began dating Donald Trump.

Look, the contention that Alex Jones et al are stupid people is kind of hard to argue. I’ll give Trump that one.

This is all very odd.

Why bring Epstein back to front page news after 40 days in the wilderness.

Donald says he didn’t know what the press conference was about. So Melania is acting alone here?

Is she distancing herself from the wave that’s about to come?

This article in the New York Times is incredible. It outlines the meeting between Trump and Netanyahu that lead to the Iranian invasion.

In the situation room Trump and Netanyahu sat as equals, not like a disciple as European leaders have.

Great journalism. Great read.

Next time you may want to add context. Like a link to the article on her press conference. I for one had no idea it had occurred.

Firing Bondi at this time was to try to get her out of testifying to the House Oversight Committee next week.

The department argued that Bondi was subpoenaed in her official role as attorney general and not in a personal capacity. As such, she won’t appear on Capitol Hill on April 14 to discuss her role overseeing the release of the Epstein Files, Assistant Attorney General Patrick D. Davis wrote in a letter to House Oversight Chairman James Comer.

“Ms. Bondi no longer holds that office. As a result, because Ms. Bondi no longer can testify in her official capacity as Attorney General, the Department’s position is that the subpoena no longer obligates her to appear on April 14. We kindly ask that you confirm that the subpoena is withdrawn,” Davis said in the letter, which was obtained by CNN.

The frontrunner for the Democratic nomination in Nebraska’s 2nd District would have to give up his state Senate seat, increasing the risk of a Republican supermajority.

  1. Nebraska is never going to vote blue in a Presidential election,
  2. They have 5 electoral college votes.

Ie. it’s a non-entity.
