As more files from the Epstein case are released, I'm sickened by the extent of his depravity and his connections to so many powerful people. Governments around the globe are being shaken by the mentions of their leaders in the files, and the U.S. should apply the same scrutiny to our leaders.

wow -- Bondi throws a fit in response to Nadler's question about how many of Epstein's co-conspirators, if any, she's investigating, aggressively pointing at him and yelling. The hearing then devolves into chaos and Raskin and Bondi start yelling at each other.

The next time someone questions how the jedi found Osha out of everyone in the galaxy to interrogate her for Mae’s crime, I’m literally gonna say it’s fingerprints/DNA. Mae leaves that dagger she touched IN INDARA’S chest.
And Mae and Osha’s DNA is the same! This is my story and I’m sticking to it.
