While Clinton has his issues, he also has no record whatsoever of involvement with or attraction to teenage and younger girls. Maybe when he was a teen himself and was interested in girls his own age, but nothing as an adult.

Grown women are another story, hopefully long shelved by now.

As for Trump, there is more than ample evidence of his attraction to and involvement with young girls, including his own daughter(s).

I said for years, those with money own this country, not only politically, but they can hire lawyers to get out of anything the 99% cannot when they break the laws. They are the same ones that drag us into wars or create trade pacts with slave labor nations to make even more money.

The more money you have the more power you have over people in a money driven world.
That is why those with a lot of money should be allowed nowhere near politics.

Clinton was already impeached for sexual acts. Trump's turn.

I would love to know WHO Acosta was doing favors for and why. He should resign immediately.

There has to have been either massive corruption in the Miami office of the Southern District of FL, or Acosta himself is corrupt or he was doing a favor for influential people--but who? Or, Acosta simply has extremely bad judgment, and if that is the case, why is he the Labor Secretary?

I'm thinking someone is going to have to resign, explain publicly and immediately, or wait until the investigation into the plea deal turns over a few rocks.
I can assure you that the entire State of Florida, from the top to the bottom...is corrupt in a fashion that would have your head spinning.

Moreover, many of them outright admit it....its that brazen (and legal, actually, to pay off legislators).....that it's just the everyday situation.

Whether in the capital or in the SE, it's all about money. Drug money, laundered money, mob money, russian money (now), S. american money........you name it, that's what built Florida.

There is no "there" there in terms of honest infrastructure.

The dental chair story has been corrected - it was a chair for facials and other skin care, apparently. It did look just like a dental chair to me, though. But most of the photos of Epstein appearing online now are at least ten years old - current photos are rare, but show he's aged considerably, with a gray beard and white hair. So it's not unbelievable that he would try to look younger by indulging in professional skin care. Surprised he didn't go Trump's route and dye his hair, though. Maybe he thought the beard and white hair helped keep him from being recognized - and arrested. Glad that plan failed.

As for the Qanon stuff being followed by reporters, whether false (as I think it obviously is) or not, it's in the news, people are interested, so of course reporters will follow the stories. BTW, didn't "Q" claim that Trump was secretly trying to clean up child porn and sexual child abuse?? How does he reconcile what's been revealed in recent days and previously? Or does the Q flock still think there's a Democratic child abuse ring in the basement of a D.C. pizza parlor which has no basement?

Look, the real news is horrific enough without either making up or falling for Qanon fakery like this.

This is the 'nuclear option' that Trump's enemies had hoped to avoid... because there will be serious casualties on the Left also.

But the Clintons have out-lived their usefulness. Hard choices need to be made... and Billybob will be thrown under the bus if that's what it comes to. He can play golf with Bill Cosby

The 13 year old marriage I know of was in Alabama. The groom was 26. In New Hampshire and Kansas you can marry with permission at 12 for a female.

In the recent raid, cops found CDs in Epstein's safe labeled with names of young girls and public figures. Blackmail?
