The flipside of jowls at 37 is there's even odds that, hairline aside, he'll continue looking like that for the next 30 years

The difficulty we face in a nutshell
This is not the same Pulte mentioned in the Epstein emails. This is his grandson.

The Times really does have great reporters & they want to defend their work. But their editors are indefensible, their leadership is indefensible, & as long as that's true, that reporting talent is going to waste. Might even suggest that's a subtext here: I'm not seeing defenses of the organization.
the key problem here is that the threshold for "publishable info" is a moving target and it moves to Trump's benefit
As a former member of NYT’s finance team & the co-author of this story exposing the relationship between Epstein & Bill Gates as well as one on Epstein & JPMorgan, I am really frustrated to see people claiming that NYT sat on publishable info about Trump and Epstein 🧵 www.nytimes.com/2019/10/12/b...

NEW: So, the courtroom at the "Broadview 6" arraignment in Chicago yesterday featured lotsa Methodist pastors.
Why? They were supporters of defendant/fellow Methodist Brian Straw.
"If you come for one United Methodist, you have come for all of us,” one pastor said. religionnews.com/2025/11/13/m...

That people can argue "hey I should be allowed to keep driving even though I've proven deadly menace, because that is the only way I can reasonably expect to provide for myself & my family" should be considered a national scourge on par with the opioid epidemic or childhood cancer.
It just needs to be way easier to lose your license and your car for reckless driving, because a few months of major societal disruption 5 years ago taught people that driving in such a way that kills others or themselves is nbd
so uhhhhh is anyone going to do anything about the epidemic of drivers just blasting through red lights these days? @timdonnelly.com investigates: nygroove.nyc/why-does-no-...

Educated Person: At long last, I have the chance to ask the author about a provocative viewpoint regarding his classic literary novel You Should Be Ashamed of Your Provocative Viewpoint
There's an interview somebody did with Nabokov where the interviewer said "you know, Hollywood actors get married to young girls all the time and everybody thinks it's cool, what's so bad about Humbert Humbert?" and Nabokov is like "he is evil and she is 12 what the fuck is wrong with you?"

It's telling that the media's internal response to all this is to blackball one career reporter. I'm sure they considered this a severe consequence.

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...

That those luminaries are a decade more distant from political power I think improved the House's thinking. Making Obama & Clinton people look bad in 2025 hits a lot different than in 2015
honestly my estimation of House Democrats has grown a little bit from the fact that they were clearly eager to leak this *entire* trove of emails even though they would damage or ruin the reputations of a bunch of Democratic Party luminaries who are in the emails

I am very grateful that my wife's ob/gyn has never subscribed to these old fashioned nostrums. But even when you've got someone capable who treats you with respect, it feels like skating on thin ice
And let’s be clear “women’s pain is normal and they should simply endure it” is NOT partisan. It is bipartisan. It’s is the standard and broad belief of the entire medical industrial complex from research to pharma to med schools to doctors and even to patients.

Hillary Clinton is one of the most brilliant lawyers of her generation & both of them were maximally paranoid at Epstein's zenith. I am as certain as I can be without actual exonerating evidence that Bill Clinton never did anything actionable in association with Epstein.
developing a shitpost theory that clinton never trusted epstein to keep clinton behavior secret and thus never did anything untoward because he knew ken starr was also a ln epstein friend
Ken Starr signed an email to Jeffery Epstein with "hugs"

Is it any wonder they think they're above both partisanship & accountability?
Whats so unnerving, among many other aspects of the whole sordid Epstein miasma, is how incestuous the world of these elites are. Everyone knows everyone. The personal, social, and professional spheres all overlap.

Again, Dems are playing with house money, because in the minority they can't fuck up anything as badly as Trump can fuck things up as president.

I suspect Epstein managed to tap into forerunners of the same prejudices regarding the relationship of formality to power/influence that yielded Twitter culture or Zuck's hoodie

Turns out if you try to enshrine bipartisanship in the function of your legislature by making it nearly impossible to pass substantive new legislation without support from the other party, the actual result is you encourage the executive to bypass the legislature & act unilaterally

A fine example of how a scandal is only a scandal if both parties treat it like one. In the Epstein case, both parties were quite happy to treat it as no scandal at all when it was most relevant.
the media went all out to promote stories related to one sexual abuser (Weiner, D-NY) and not the other (Epstein, R-Little Saint James)

It's the real-life version of fantasizing that if you time traveled to medieval times you would be a lord rather than a peasant
the fact that being really into eugenics appears to sort people for being shitty human is kind of amazing. like there is, in theory, room to be super interested in the area in principle and not be a shitty human being, but the correlation is robust
The Epstein stuff is always so amazing to me because it's like "yes he was a sex criminal but if you can get past that, he was also an avowed eugenicist"

Key, of course, is that it wasn't just Merrick Garland. It was the transition team that chose Merrick Garland. It was the campaign that produced the transition team. It was the voters who voted for that campaign. Voters *didn't want Doug Jones*, they wanted a Merrick Garland who succeeded
it is fucking infuriating to think how one different staffing choice, someone like Doug Jones, could have made all the difference in the world
