Donald Trump jumped on a blonde, 6'1" model and groped her while she tried to fight him off at a beauty pageant in 1993, the woman told me.

She also said Trump was working with Jeffrey Epstein to recruit young women for his parties at Mar-a-Lago.

I think people aren't giving enough consideration to possibility that Bezos killed Harris nomination as part of quid pro quo, not fear.

I have wondered the same abt some of the union endorsements.

After all, John Roberts has largely eliminated bribery as a crime, esp for POTUS
