He is digging around again -- not clear if its another book/or expanded paperback version. Was asking me all sorts of questions about why you hired Ken Starr. I told him I had no idea - I think he is doing some Trump-related digging too.
Anyway, for what its worth...

I think about this a lot too. I am deeply morally wounded by this shitshow.
along with the heinous literal crimes i think a lot about how there's a kind of moral, national crime in subjecting all of us to this, to this consuming our politics, committed against us by a number of powerful and connected people up to and including the president

It occurs to me that we could probably significantly improve our politics by virtue of simply removing all the child rapists.

The thing about my Daily Beast tenure I'm proudest of? How we stayed on the Epstein story for years, when all of the uptown elites were rolling their eyes and telling us to go away.

Like I dunno, maybe the reason it took a lady to break open the story of all the men protecting the dude trafficking underage girls is because the male journos were all emailing him making jokes about it?

I don't think legacy media is reading the room correctly on the Epstein Files. Many of us are asking why they have ignored this story for the last decade? Why did they dismiss all of us who were concerned that Trump might be compromised? And where is their fucking contrition and apology now?

Everyone thinks they will be the exception.
Serious illness or disability won’t happen to them and IF it does, they will be able to afford it.
The reality is it only takes one catastrophic event to change your life, especially in a country that doesn’t guarantee healthcare for all.

Wasn’t expecting the Epstein scandal to blow up the New York Times but sure, why not
To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015
What did the NY Times editors know about this offer?
