In particular, the Tates were forcing girls below the age of consent into prostitution and working as camgirls.

          He was accused of child rape in conjunction with Epstein. It didn’t go to trial because the alleged victim was in fear for her life.

          Trying to protect child sex traffickers certainly doesn’t reflect well on that case. Or on anything, really.

          Weren’t the Q people against child sex trafficking?

            Apparently they are only against democrats sex trafficking children. It’s okay when their side does it.

      Considering the US has the more millitary bases on foreign soil than the rest of the world combined…

      Actually let me recontextualize this so you realize how much America has a gun to the rest of the world’s collective heads. The number of foreign bases, exempting potential secret off the record ones, held by the totality of nations Other than the US is less than 100. The US has over 750 bases on foreign soil in over 80 countries.

      How did you think America had gotten away with it’s warcrimes scott free until now? Until America itself calls the shot the rest of us are basically on tiptoe.

        So if I understand you correctly, you’re suggesting to kick US bases out of those countries. That’s a nice idea, we should pressure Trump with that.

          Its a good thought if everone can manage to coordinate. Otherwise its one country pointing a rifle to their head and daring congress to pull the trigger.

    This is genuinely insane. Like, this is more obviously and overtly evil than any manga, manwha, or fairytale I’ve ever read. The witch from Hansel and greatle had more moral ambiguity than this!

      Let’s make a prequel to this fairytale so we can show how complex and sympathetic the villain is!

      Oops they’re still a villain.

    This is Trump looking out for his fellow pedophiles and sex traffickers. Surprised he doesn’t offer them a cabinet position at this point.

      I mean, he said he’d fuck his daughter too. So it’s not like the creepy alarm can ring any louder. And not just because she looks like Sid from ice age.

    I had no idea who these guys are, and had to look them up:

    divisive internet influencer Andrew Tate

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Tate

    I thought maybe he was some business mogul or something with an ostensible excuse for persecution, but… No, he’a just a former athlete, now famous for being famous? Like all he does is Tweet and post videos and stuff, kind of like a modern Paris Hilton.

    Ugh, I wish a meteor shower would hit every single Twitter and Facebook data center right now. As tragic as it would be, YouTube too. The kind of monsters shameless engagement optimization produces is just not worth it.

    Way to admit that sex criminals are going to be the primary beneficiaries if USAID. GOP in a nutshell. The FBI is the only agency that deserves to die for not properly prosecuting these obvious deviants.
