To give u an idea of how powerful men protect each other, remember Moira Donegan's "Shitty Men in Media" list? Here are former Paris Review Editor Lorin Stein (who got fired for being named), Michael Wolff, & Epstein discussing backing Stephen Eliott to supress MeToo

I hadn’t known this. Two men who were accused of sexual abuse on the Shitty Media Men document that I created back in 2017 reached out to Michael Wolff for help as they looked to sue me, and Wolf forwarded their concerns to Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein offered to help. www.jmail.world/thread/EFTA0...

"As far as I’m concerned, remembering that I’m “first, last, and always an American” is a means of rejecting the claim, promulgated by antisemites as well as Zionists, that I am anything else."

This, by Lily Meyer, is lovely. Happy pub day to her.

Disgust aside, I am downright astonished by the extent to which these geriatric pervs felt inclined to communicate their every intrusive thought.
Even the non-incriminating stuff is so creepy.

Deleted my last post. Maybe I should, like, doomscroll to prevent myself from going too deep in the Epstein files.

Every new Epstein files dump is like confirmation that the grandiose conspiracy theories aren’t depraved enough.

There is so much bad in the world, let's take a moment to applaud the man who brought a pizza cutter to try to break Luigi Mangione out of jail. That's beautiful.
