I find it highly ironic that the party that bemoaned the deep state and alleged the cover-up of pedophiles is now embroiled in defending the party that has the largest pedophile cover-up in American history.

As I sometimes like to mention, s the only reason you know who Jeffrey Epstein is (that is, if you weren't one of his friends/clients/beneficiaries) is because Ms Brown, below, broke the story of his sweetheart deal to get out of the 2008 trafficking charges.

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

Trump getting elected a few weeks AFTER the Access Hollywood tape dropped was to America’s culture of sexual violence what Sandy Hook was for gun violence—a clear sign that tens of millions of “conservatives” were totally fine with it.
i mean c’mon. the president’s best friend was the most notorious pedo in the country’s history who ran a massive child trafficking ring. every bit of circumstantial evidence we have says that trump was a participant. if this were a criminal trial we’d have enough evidence to compel a plea deal.

The Trump Administration is saying its $20 billion bailout for Argentina is classified.
Give me a break. Trump just wants to hide the receipts.
Americans deserve to know where their money went.

1. I don't think anybody argues that... INFANTICIDE... should be irrelevant in college admissions.
2. Conflating SEXUAL ASSAULT with "hit on" is the problem.

All that Q stuff about how the Democrats were all paedophiles was, in fact, a self-admission. It appears that Epstein is saying that Trump spent hours with one of his underage girls*. We knew Trump was a sexual offender but this is worse. But will it matter to the far right GOP?! Also Wolff is over.

Our editorial stance is kidnappings are bad. This is not Real Journalism because it's important to be neutral about atrocities
Got turned down on a piece about ICE in Chicago for an international news org because they believed I couldn’t be objective about my neighbors getting kidnapped. And well, guilty as charged I guess.

In case you were wondering, Fox News has yet to mention Epstein and the new emails released this morning.
Both MSNBC and CNN have brought up Epstein dozens of times already following the document release.
