trying to take the long view and stay present in this moment. Do not want to add to the churn so preference people's own ideas, comments and questions.
Getting harder and harder to find anyone with any kind of morals in this story except the victims.
Michael Wolff tried to buy New York Mag — with money from Harvey Weinstein and Jeffrey Epstein.
So Wolff didn't just have a reporter-source relationship with Epstein. Nor was Wolff his informal PR adviser. They saw each other as potential business partners.

Trump is more personally culpable for the high cost of housing than any undocumented immigrant ever could be.
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

ALERT! ALERT! The new answer is "it has been destroyed." This month it is October Jobs data, 2 hours of Comey' Grand Jury, and now Broadview's CCTV. The new version of 18.5 minutes from the Nixon tapes oh so long ago. Get this FOIA requests out there fast on everything!
Oh so they are doing torture torture
An interesting tidbit in the joint status report filed in the Broadview ICE facility case today:
ICE says video from inside the facility "between October 19, 2025, and October 31, 2025, has been irretrievably destroyed" and can't be produced in discovery.

Hello...when did overtime pay up to 25K if filing jointly get exempted in this big ugly bill? This is a clear bribe to first responders, primarily police officers. The internet tells me electricians, plumbers and fork lift drivers and truckers (who are highly regulated driving time so ???)
Hmmmm wouldn’t he need jobs data to know this?
Hassett: "The Council of Economic Advisers informs me that they think we're probably gonna see something like 60,000 job losses because of the shutdown, and it'll take a while to get that back."

Bovino: "Whether they were criminals or individuals that were taking jobs from Americans -- you name it, that's what they were doing. And I'll tell you what's gonna happen. We're gonna go even harder on the streets. If he releases those 650, we're gonna apprehend 1,650 on the streets of Chicago."

I bet JD Vance sees a real doctor who follows scientifically-tested best practices, not a "do your own research" quack, and that his kids have had their standard child vaccinations.
Anyone want to take the other side of that bet? No? Think he's just lying to pander to people he looks down on? Yeah.

To be fair, they aren't on any side and I suspect would love a more consistent, less capricious and favor demanding exec. What they don't have is integrity.
Google made it clear which side it was on when it changed the Gulf of Mexico's name early in the Trump 2.0 regime.

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...

This indeed!
A reminder that the Epstein files aren't a distraction from the oligarchy. They're an integral part of it.
A reminder: The perpetrators in the Epstein files are Oligarchs, and so are the ones protecting them.

AOC: How can we, as members of congress, Republican or Democrat, vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people? That is what this legislation does. In fact, Senator Graham said he was going to seek well over $1 million from the American people, from this.

The Kremlin disguised a nearly $100 mn payment to Trump in the form of a brokered real estate deal... and both Jeffrey Epstein and William Pulte were involved in the deal. That's very interesting.
