Banal observation, sorry, but conversations in Prague really brought home to me that while countries come and go, cities have a historical existence and character that typically is far more resilient.

Here's a particularly weird one where an unnamed sends Epstein a text that says "Tommy Robinson. !! good work" then almost exclusively and repeatedly talk about Goebbels and Kristallnacht for a while before pivoting to talking about blood drawing.

Mentioned herein: Jared Kushner, Steve Bannon, Matthew Calamari (COO of Trump Org.), lots of Ken Starr, the particularly gross phrase "I was getting too soft; women are bad for the knees." Unknown sender but I think I can tell from context clues. Oh, and "I'm flying tonight with Hannity."

NOTE: Oklahoma is scheduled to execute Tremane Wood on Thursday afternoon (Nov. 13).

The Oklahoma Pardon and Parole Board recommended clemency on a 3-2 vote, but Gov. Kevin Stitt has not acted on it.

The U.S. Supreme Court also has not yet acted on Wood's stay of execution request.

Anyone who has read Virginia Guiffres book Nobody’s Girl and then sees film of the President partying with Epstein and his prey can only think one thing, and it’s not good.

New York Times social media guidelines prohibit expression suggesting partiality on things like ICE, execution of foreigners in fishing boats, or whether law is a thing.

However, tipping off notorious serial pedophiles about other reporters is absolutely fine.

at this point it would be easier to list who wasn’t involved with this subhuman trash (epstein or bannon, dealer’s choice)
Jeffrey Epstein advised Steve Bannon that the lawyers representing Brett Kavanaugh in his confirmation hearing should accuse Christine Blasey Ford of being on medications that cause false memories or memory loss.
