“It’s a smear” - Donald Trump
Reposted by Marcus Chown
As someone is saying on LBC now, among the rich and powerful in the Epstein files are many members of the billionaire class, who are influencing governments globally and doing precisely what the hell they want.
Trump considers himself a member and so he is principally defending the billionaires.

The current email release certainly feels like a very good reason for the BBC furore to have been whipped up. But by whom? And for whom?
But I guess that could just be another conspiracy.

When the Epstein dam bursts, we’re going to be amazed at how many of the rich and powerful are implicated.
And the lengths that they went to to stop their exposure.

The BBC gets attacked by Trump for dodgily editing of quote and the dossier used to shame the BBC uses dodgily edited quotes!
Why is the BBC being all apologetic?
Why isn’t it standing up for itself and telling Trump to f**k off?
There is literally no defamation case for it to answer.

Epstein’s ticking time bomb for science: Years ago, before the name of Epstein had registered, I had lunch with a prominent woman physicist. She told me Epstein was funding exclusive physics conferences for favoured male physicists to which women like her were excluded.

The problem after 14 years of damage wreaked by the Tories is that we now have a f***ed up BBC and a f***ed up NHS.
But, remember, the f***ing up has come from outside. It is not intrinsic
