I really look with commiseration over the great body of my fellow citizens, who, reading newspapers, live & die in the belief that they have known something of what has been passing in the world in their time: whereas the accounts they have read in newspapers are just as true a history of any other period of the world as of the present, except that the real names of the day are affixed to their fables. general facts may indeed be collected from them, such as that Europe is now at war, that Bonaparte has been a successful warrior, that he has subjected a great portion of Europe to his will &c &c. but no details can be relied on. I will add that the man who never looks into a newspaper is better informed than he who reads them; inasmuch as he who knows nothing is nearer to truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods & errors. he who reads nothing will still learn the great facts, and the details are all false.

As for Julie Brown, I'm really not impressed!

She didn't do anything worth mentioning after Shakes the Clown.

She's a has-been!

Odd that you will not give deserved credit to or would not have wanted that someone standing up for your daughter or niece or sister or whomever if they were sexually abused and then ignored with zero justice. I feel differently about (God forbid) mine.

The fact that the new Epstein investigation has been assigned to the public corruption staff: not only are public officials subject to scrutiny so are attornies associated with the earlier case - like Dershowitz.

The currently unnamed persons covered by the earlier agreement must be named in the document, I do not believe they can plead the 5th for the actions covered by the agreement. Attornies out there, am I wrong?

Dershowitz has just been trying to cover his own sleazy rear-end. He got a massage from an under-age girl but he kept his underwear on?


Good lord.


Buncha wealthy men trying to cover up sex parties with underage girls. Making sure the main perp gets a VERY light sentence in order to keep their own names out of it.


It's gross and disgusting and nothing new under the sun

Acosta lied.

The only way the labor secretary could give Jeffrey Epstein that 2008 plea deal is by ignoring victims.

Remember the name Rachel or Ray Chandler = child handler.
Nobody's ignoring the Clinton connection. He constantly mentioned as someone who knew Epstein.

A question of fact -

Has Dershowitz admitted to a massage by an underage or even young woman? Last I came across he was saying an older female..

Source?

Again fact question. Has Clinton been actually placed at the island. Only report I have heard is the one victim who also remembers a number of people who were pretty clearly never there. And I would think that a visit to the US Virgins by Clinton would be pretty obvious. He does not travel quietly. There is no log book entry for such a trip on Epstein's plane.

Who to believe?


Media default is to support the democrat.
The person with the most to lose, should the truth come out, is probably the one who is lying.
