Your only possible response, when confronted with someone saying this, is to wait for them to finish, firmly state “What the actual fuck is wrong with you?” and leave the interview immediately.
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

I put a Reagan/Bush sign in my window when I was at BU during the 1980 election. Amazingly, I still had lots of friends of various political persuasions.

Quote of him Boston 25 News 9/11/2025. Re division on campus “It’s been so long now, you don’t want to tell people that you’re at Republican on campus, you’re outcasted from social groups, people are hostile towards you, we’re marginalized at BU and there’s so many people who feel the way we do.”

Removing a monument honoring Black US soldiers has nothing to do with DEI. It’s erasure of history and it’s straight-up racism.

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.

By any reasonable calibration, the two biggest assholes to afflict themselves on Harvard University in the modern era are Larry Summers and Alan Dershowitz, and of course, Jeffrey Epstein collected them both.
