Remember when Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump’s lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, wrote an op-ed trying to justify having sex with kids?
Seems relevant now.

The American tendency to reward incompetent people who can talk well is reflected in Weiss' ascendency to the helm of CBS.
Its the same skill Epstein used to establish a multi-national trafficking/blackmail organization.
This time its being used to prop up a failed second generation landlord.

I don't know what piece she's talking about, but I know the Dominionists can be very very nice to outsiders when they know they are under a microscope.

It's also striking to me how often they writers encounter MAGA Christians who are polite to them and think their short encounters are indicative of who those people are. Christian nationalists are often ignorant but rarely stupid.

I just read this quote in the full context and its interesting that she's using the old "reading the affidavit of complaint as fact" to fish for a way to discredit the reporting.
Being charged with a crime is not a conviction. Over-reporting of unproven charges has harmed a lot of innocent people.

And there goes MAGA’s latest talking point.
Bill Clinton just called on Trump to release the full Epstein Files, including all documents mentioning both Trump and Clinton.
“Refusal to do so will confirm the widespread suspicion the DOJ’s actions to date are not about transparency, but about insinuation.”
