YouTube video by MeidasTouch

The thing that I notice about the Epstein survivors is the contrast between their bravery and the cowardice of so many who are in power.
These ladies, who were victimized when they were just vulnerable children or young women, having the guts to face the most powerful people in the world.

BBC also confirms this was done on the advice of lawyers. So Trump's threats worked.

Van Halen is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Deservedly.
But the man who produced the first 9 albums for the Doobies and the first 6 albums for Van Halen, Ted Templeman, somehow is not.
This needs to be corrected.
