Starting to fucking wonder if Epstein wasn’t a CIA op all along, doing some freelancing on the side like a Le Carre character—I’d forgotten or missed that the man who gave him his unearned leg up, our corrupt first-term Trump AG Barr’s father, was an OSS veteran:

He’s betting we forget in two years.
In 2023 the Kennedy Center was in the black, pulling in $286M in revenue. And it reopened from a $250M renovation in 2019.
