The State Department had deleted history.

Again, I urge all right-wingers to continue making this argument in the most public venues available to them.
Dershowitz: The predecessor on your show described Epstein as a convicted pedophile. He pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. That’s not a pedophile.

Pam Bondi will not have a license to practice law when this is all over. You can’t stay a bar member and agree to investigate only members of one political party for child sexual abuse but not members of the other. And, you can’t do it after previously saying no one else could be charged.

Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

NYT: Wolff advised inaction…Trump might deny close association with Epstein. “I think you should let him hang himself,” he wrote. “If he says he hasn’t been on the plane or to the house, then that gives you…political currency” that could be used to “hang him” later or “save him, generating a debt.”

NYT: In one email from April 2011, Mr. Epstein told Ms. Maxwell, “I want you to realize that that dog that hasn’t barked is Trump.” He added that an unnamed victim “spent hours at my house with him“ he has never once been mentioned.”

“I have been thinking about that,” Ms. Maxwell wrote back.
