He raped her then and on several other occasions. Guess that explains why Chuck booted him out of The Firm. Oh, and that famous photo of Andrew with her and Maxwell in the background? Epstein himself took it with her camera.

Reading Virginia Guiffre's harrowing but brave autobiography. Epstein and Maxwell, after sexually abusing her multiple times (both of them), introduced her to (Prince) Andrew, then 41. March 13, 2001. She was only 17 and he knew that. ("My daughters are just a little younger than you.")

Some Sherlockian nerdery:
In one of Epstein’s emails to Ghislaine Maxwell, just released by the Epstein estate, he writes: “I want you to realize that that dog that hasn’t barked is Trump. [Redacted victim’s name] spent hours at my house with him, has never once been mentioned.”

Hivemind, help me out: I'm positive that when I was a kid, the zipper on the side pockets of my ski jacket would go down to close and up to open. Now all my winter jackets and vests have the opposite. Has anyone else noticed this? When did it change?

Candy for the trick-or-treaters. But I selflessly saved them from all the little Coffee Crisps. Kids are too young for coffee. Not all heroes wear capes.

The #WhiteHouse is officially a museum and designated heritage site. Arrest and charge #Trump under the National Historic Preservation Act. I know this crime is not as awful as many of his others -- treason, murder, jailing innocent Americans -- but still. Whatever it takes to put him in prison.

Six months ago I thought 'Hey, maybe I should invest a little money in some company that makes funny inflatable frog costumes.' And then I thought, 'Nah, don't throw your money away.' Boy, do I feel foolish now!
