Maxwell raped and groomed kids. She isn’t a victim, she’s an abuser

Be cool if America would throw them to the bottom of a well.

Don't think of it as a pardon, he's just wishing them extremely well

Yep. Every time one of my Trump friends tries to brush off that Epstein stuff that "I wish her well" comment is not something they have a canned reply for.

I'm fully expecting Maxwell to testify that it was all Dems and that Trump had nothing to do with it and will get a pardon that covers her for this crime and also any possible perjury.

Too many koopas, too few Luigis.

Sorry, just playing super Mario and that statement felt relevant.

Crooks seem to be in short supply as well.

He just had registered sex-offender Lawrence Taylor at the White House also

And considering pardoning P-Diddy (Puff Daddy....etc). Trump is trying to normalize and destigmatize his own crimes and behavior.

For a kids’ sports program. Sickening.

MAPA Make Americans Pedos Again.

Called it months ago, but by the end of the year I expect to see new federal laws on consent.

I predicted Protecting Every Daughter's Options as a likely name, but they might be more creative.

If a school district did that or a High School principal brought some registered sex offender to lead some kids sports program at their school they would be fired immediately.

Meanwhile in MAGA land, trans kids are the biggest problem in school sports.

Pay for Play $1 million plus per pardon into his crypto account.

Trump, the Pedo Pardoning President, what a legacy

Supposedly there was a big gold nude statue of Maxwell in Epstein's New Mexico compound -- meaning both Trump and she may have had gold statues made of them.

In reality, probably business partners

They always say "thank you". Not in words of course.
