Truer words have never been spoken.
#heatherCoxRichardson This: “And then, at 7:49 tonight, the president’s social media account posted a graphic video of a man killing a woman with a hammer. The screed that accompanied the video attacked Haitian immigrants, former president Joe Biden, and “the Radical Democrats in Congress.” The post echoed the usual vicious racism to which Trump turns to feed his base. But it is hard to miss that hours after his wife gave an unexpected press conference about Jeffrey Epstein, Trump posted a video of a woman’s murder.“

@drmike the guy who introduced melania to donald (#PaoloZampolli) is all over the Epstein files. like epstein #Zampolli ran a "modeling agency" that recruited very young women from eastern europe/russia/etc. he and epstein attempted to buy a larger modeling agency together (the deal fell through). more recently zampolli was involved in a "cash for passports" scandal in #Dominica.

overall zampolli gets very bad reviews in the #EpsteinFiles. victims of epstein who know him call him "sleazy", epstein calls him a snitch.

zampolli is currently an official US ambassador.

It’s the sort of problem that access to real-time data on terrain, weather, and other factors could have solved. But most older transport planes lack up-to-date maps or terrain data, forcing crews to “rely heavily on pre-mission planning products, voice updates, and aging platform-specific displays,” according to DIU’s ask./2
