A reminder, as we are increasingly inundated with posts and reports and articles about Jeffrey Epstein: there is no such thing as “underage women.” The word you are looking for is girls, or children. That’s who Epstein and Maxwell and Trump et al were abusing. Girls. Children.

New from 404 Media: ICE plans to spend as much as $180 million on bounty hunters to physically locate and stalk immigrants. I spoke to multiple private investigators/skip tracers. Some horrified. Others said they will do this work. "Money is money."

Thou shalt replace Chuck Schumer with Chris Van Hollen, who personally went to El Salvador to find Kilmar. That’s the kind of courage we need right now.

DOJ recently admitted that other FPS claims in this case were objectively false.

When I read the full transcript of the interview, I realized there had been no pushback, no corrections, no challenging follow-ups. The entire interview had been an open-ended opportunity for Trump to tell rambling lies, only to have them cleaned up into a more polished product.
