It’s deflect, deflect, deflect followed up with a “don’t attack me bro”

Used anytime there is news that makes Trump look inept.

It looks like it may have been Circuit Court Judge Deborah Dale Pucillo, if I am reading this right. It also seems like details were withheld from her, which affected things?

"The best place to begin is in knowing that the judge was not allowed to know the extent of Epstein’s crimes. All she was shown was his specific charges, per the sweetheart deal he got from Acosta."

Time will hopefully tell more about what exactly happened and whoever is guilty in all of this gets their due. No matter the party, etc.

Yup. This did not happen in a social vacuum. I am sure that the number of people directly involved as participants is dwarfed by the number of people who kinda-sorta-knew-but-not-really.

I think by the time the dust settles, we will all, regardless of party, be sadly echoing Pelosi's daughter.

“This Epstein case is horrific and the young women deserve justice,” Pelosi tweeted. “It is quite likely that some of our faves are implicated but we must follow the facts and let the chips fall where they may – whether on Republicans or Democrats.”

We must need 85 Republican Senators to maybe have a shot.. and a House where Republicans have a 200 seat advantage.. Maybe that will do it!
However, not a filibuster proof majority for any of that time.

Thankfully the failing fake news media like the NYT is around to keep Trump and his idiot administration honest. It irks Trump to have to answer to the media, but since Congress is a bunch of limped d****d losers, we need the media to serve as another checks and balance for this idiot 45.
