He is digging around again -- not clear if its another book/or expanded paperback version. Was asking me all sorts of questions about why you hired Ken Starr. I told him I had no idea - I think he is doing some Trump-related digging too.
Anyway, for what its worth...

I know. And I frankly wouldn't give even an itty bitty damn if it implicated every Democratic man in Congress, every Democratic hopeful for 2028 and every Democrat who has even thought about running for office.
Down with the sex predators, wherever they are.

Is it because they know there’s nothing Trump can do that would make them give him up? And so they project that onto their opponents?
99% of Republicans understand nothing about intraleft politics. they’re still saying shit like “you won’t be so happy when BILL CLINTON is implicated will you?”

Epstein didn’t commit his evil in a vacuum, exhibit eleventy billion
I want people to understand that in my youth, a youth that happened somewhere between the youth of Epstein, Trump, Maxwell, ex-Prince Andrew, et al & that of their victims, the term "jail bait" was framed as a compliment.

“Across class“ being important here.
What the Epstein files show is the *solidarity* of many men-across class, race, religion, profession & party affiliation-in the global political project of keeping the boot on women's necks.
People have no problem understanding class solidarity among the rich. Why can't they see gender solidarity?

Like I dunno, maybe the reason it took a lady to break open the story of all the men protecting the dude trafficking underage girls is because the male journos were all emailing him making jokes about it?

This is the same guy that QAnon would have you believe is bringing the storm against so-called satanic elite pedophiles
Epstein mocked Trump for “leaving his nose print on the glass” while watching young women, wrote that Trump knew about illicit activity tied to Mar-a-Lago, and visited “many times,” and noted Trump’s planned visit to his neighbor Howard Lutnick’s house.

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

pretty funny in retrospect that QAnon hinged on the idea that powerful elites at the highest levels of government were smart enough to talk in code when sending emails to each other about their despicable crimes

The wealthy do have impunity, but it’s important to remember that there are likely hundreds of thousands of Epsteins out there that just haven’t been caught. Wealth can be a big factor, but serial abusers often don’t need wealth or power to get away with their crimes.
The Epstein story gets a something that is tearing at the heart of the electorate: elite impunity. The idea that wealthy and powerful people can do terrible things *at scale* and face no consequences for them. Whatever political party actually stops it could rule the country for a generation.

It takes a whole culture, not just elites, but everyone who saw and dismissed the behavior, for him to have been so cavalier and unafraid
To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015
What did the NY Times editors know about this offer?

It’s the culture that enabled Epstein and Trump to get away with it. People either turned a blind eye or laughed it off. And it still exists today. It will always exist.

This likely won’t change a thing with his supporters, in part because people have a need to believe that types like Epstein could only exist on The Other Side, that abusers couldn’t be one of their own. Because it suggests a terrifying reality.
In a message obtained by Congress, the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein wrote that Trump spent hours at his house with one of Epstein’s victims

“Huh, why are all these people breaking/smashing into the Capitol yelling about a “stolen election” and wanting to “hang Mike Pence”? Total mystery, what can ya do, best not to dwell on it.”
The worst you can accuse Panorama of doing is making a misleading edit – and I’d dispute that! – to make *a point that was true*.
The programme aired without anyone seeing any issues with the edit. It was on iPlayer for a year without complaints. Donald Trump *did* incite Jan 6th.

Trump to air traffic controllers: "For those that did nothing but complain, and took time off, even though everyone knew they would be paid, IN FULL, shortly into the future, I am NOT HAPPY WITH YOU. You didn’t step up to help the U.S.A. against the FAKE DEMOCRAT ATTACK"

The “we just know” crowd strikes again. They “just know” she must be trans because they…”just know”. There’s iron-clad, totally objective standards on what makes a woman a woman. And it seems only they are privy to it.
Transphobes are already targeting the biggest star in women's soccer and baselessly alleging she's a man because she's Black. This is what trans people warned would happen. Gender policing that becomes explicitly racial.
