Chef Adam Perry Lang flew back and forth to Little St. James for 6 years. The girls say he talked to them and was nice. But he was there for everything. He saw all of them. And he said nothing. #EpsteinFiles

Spoke with some of 600+ people who were punished for Charlie Kirk-related speech over the past year — about the anxieties they’ve faced, the crazy reasons they were fired or even arrested, and what their life has been like since:
