- I speak up because I don't want my children or any of our children to ever experience what we went through.
Many of us who escaped are now watching from the outside: helpless, often voiceless, and frequently attacked simply for warning people about what we know this ideology looks like when it gains power.
- We don't want the countries that gave us safety and opportunity to be damaged by the same ideology we ran from.
But too many people still don't understand what is at stake...

Operation Relentless Justice Saves Hundreds of Child Sex Victims: DOJ
Operation Relentless Justice Saves Hundreds of Child Sex Victims: DOJ:
In a news release issued less than a week before Christmas, the DOJ announced that its “Operation Relentless Justice” had successfully found hundreds of child victims — and hundreds of alleged sex criminals.
Calling it a “a coordinated enforcement effort to identify, track, and arrest child sex predators,” 56 FBI field offices, the Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section in the Department’s Criminal Division, and U.S. attorneys’ offices across the country worked together.
First hand account, former carrier of Clinton’s Nuclear Football
With the confirmation that Bill Clinton is all over the Epstein files, let’s replay this. - Buzz Patterson on X
- It’s all about “Bill Clinton and the AF-1 Flight Attendant.”
- This one truly illustrates the “Dereliction of Duty” of President Bill Clinton.
When I was the Air Force Military Aide to President Clinton, I traveled with him everywhere.
One night, we were returning to D.C. late after a long trip to Europe on AF-1...
Shortly thereafter, my phone rang, and it was the AF-1 presidential pilot.
- “Buzz, we have a problem,” he said. "Oh s**t,” I thought.
- Apparently, Clinton had cornered a female AF-1 steward in the galley and molested her.
She was young, a staff sergeant, and married with children.
I knew her, liked her, and she was super sweet.
Now, she was in tears and sitting in front of the AF-1 pilot and commander.
I asked the pilot, a really good guy, what she wanted.
He told me that she didn’t want to be another “bimbo”; she wanted to remain in the Air Force and be promotable...

LOS ANGELES — A high-profile after-action report from the Los Angeles Fire Department on last January's Palisades Fire went through several drafts that minimized the department's failings both before and after the deadly blaze broke out, the Los Angeles Times reported Saturday.
What You Need To Know
Among the changes, according to The Times:
- LAFD officials removed language saying that the decision not to fully staff and pre-deploy all available crews and engines ahead of the historically strong winds that were forecast for the day of the fire "did not align" with the department's procedures during red flag days, and said instead that the number of engine companies put in place "went above and beyond the standard LAFD pre-deployment matrix."
- A section on "failures" was renamed "primary challenges."
- An item saying that personnel violated national guidelines on how to avoid firefighter deaths and injuries was scratched.
- A passage alleging that some crews waited more than an hour for an assignment on the day of the fire was removed.
- An early passage containing the following language was removed: "If the Department had adequately augmented all available resources as done in years past in preparation for the weather event, the Department would have been required to recall members for all available positions unfilled by voluntary overtime, which would have allowed for all remaining resources to be staffed and available for augmentation, pre-deployment, and pre-positioning."...
