Stacey @xstitcher (35480) • Petaluma, California 9 Sep

While typing the previous post, I stopped and took a peek at my eBay. To my shock, there was a bid on that darn ring again. This time, I saw when I looked at the bidder's profile, they live in the US and a way higher feedback...

How deeply involved do you thing Donald Trump was in the Epstein et. al sex trafficking Cabal?

The Horse @TheHorse (230236) • Walnut Creek, California 9 Sep
