BREAKING Multiple Social Security Administration (SSA) buildings have been evacuated because of an "unconfirmed threat received." I've confirmed the Harold Washington Building in Chicago and the Bolling Building in Kansas City evacuated and working to confirm others.

(129,644 posts)Sometimes multiple unrelated things happen at once. The invasion and occupation of Minneapolis by ICE goons and the consequent murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti were not distractions from the Epstein files. Trump's insane threat to invade Greenland was not a distraction from the Epstein files. The US' withdrawal from WHO was not a distraction from the Epstein files. The arrest of a journalist for committing journalism was not a distraction from the Epstein files. FBI's seizing of Fulton County's voting records was not a distraction from the Epstein files. Blowing up Venezuelan fishermen was not a distraction from the Epstein files. Invading Venezuela to capture Maduro was not a distraction from the Epstein files. Extorting Venezuela's oil was not a distraction from the Epstein files. Threatening to annex Canada was not a distraction from the Epstein files. These and the many other despotic, unhinged acts of Trump and his regime stand on their own. The matter of the Epstein files also stands on its own. A lot of shit is happening and none of it is a distraction from any of the rest of it.

There are numerous articles throughout Trump's political tenure that discuss various tactics of distraction.
