Hark! now I hear them, ding-dong, bell. I've been stalled on the revisions for several weeks, only sporadically making progress.

I am concerned about the massive effort that has been undertaken to try to twist reality and inflate relatively minor offenses to build a psuedo-case against Trump. While ignoring both Kennedy's actions, and the illegal, and potentially treasonous actions of HRC. Share
