Try to picture the scale of the media histrionics if Jared Kushner was even remotely associated with a global sex-trafficking ring? When it’s Joe Biden’s little boy, though…crickets.

Stuff ‘n Nonsense have published an editorial to accompany the passing of this ignominious event by declaring that “trust” is now “their most important currency”.
