Sen. Markwayne Mullin tried to blame former President Barack Obama for Jeffrey Epstein‘s 2008 plea deal, despite Obama not being president at the time.
Mullin made the comments while being interviewed by Jake Tapper on CNN’s State of the Union on Sunday. First, Tapper and Mullin debated over whether the attorney general has the ability to release documents related to the Epstein investigation, with Mullin insisting that only judges have the ability to make that information public and Tapper arguing that there is additional information that Attorney General Pam Bondi could — and has promised to — release, yet she has not done so.
Then Mullin made a bizarre claim that Epstein struck a deal in Florida in 2009, under President Obama. But that is factually incorrect, as Tapper pointed out.
Please enlighten the class on how that would be achieved in a country of this size and population in a way that yelling at a couple dozen people on Lemmy would fix
That’s why the civil war never happened. The country was too big for them to travel anywhere. And everyone was too scared that they would lose the comforts they did have, to risk changing anything for other people…
Yes @grue@lemmy.world is yelling SO loud. OW!
