First, I understand that the White House just denied Gov. Wes Moore’s request for $16 million in FEMA assistance with no explanation. Just a day earlier, Trump officials approved disaster relief for Kentucky, Indiana, Michigan and West Virginia. This is outrageous. Disaster aid cannot be politicized this way—we are the United States. Trump needs to release aid to Maryland, California, and any other so-called blue states that need it now. Also, I’m horrified that Trump dispatched his former personal criminal defense lawyer to meet in person —and in private—with Ghislaine Maxwell. Maxwell is a known sex trafficker who also allegedly assaulted some of Epstein’s victims. To give her a special meeting with the president’s close associate is horrific and inappropriate. If some sort of deal comes out of it the American people will be livid. We want the truth about Epstein, not more coverups. Thanks.
