HeadlineNov 11, 2020

Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner told HuffPo, “We’re having a conversation with members of his base who believe that there is a satanic, pedophilic, sex ring running out of a pizza parlor. I have trouble figuring out whether these people are actually part of an elaborate 'Saturday Night Live' routine, or if we should be terrified because they like AR-15s.”
