"After Epstein’s conviction involving a minor, ... he remained socially embedded among wealthy and powerful figures, signaling that status, access, and utility were permitted to outweigh the known abuse of children. That normalization—treating a convicted child sex offender as a peer rather than a warning sign—is the moral failure at issue."

"Republicans spent the week moving the goal posts on how much pedophilia they’re willing to accept by way of the Epstein files. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump’s administration of fascist clowns managed to embarrass themselves in public—over and over again.
And it was all on video."
~ Walter Einenkel
"An 86-page Department of Justice prosecution memo tied to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation disappeared from the Epstein Files library without any explanation.
But unfortunately for the Trump DOJ, we had already saved it."

"The memo, titled 'Investigation into Potential Co-Conspirators of Jeffrey Epstein,' had been publicly accessible as part of the massive tranche of Epstein-related documents recently released. Then, after reporters from the Miami Herald, including the renowned Julie K. Brown, began asking the DOJ specific questions about it, the document was suddenly gone."

"In 2017, the #MeToo movement sparked a reckoning for men at the highest levels of the entertainment and media industries — some of whom had traveled in Epstein’s circles. The files provide a rare window into how Epstein reacted and strategized in real time to the political and cultural earthquake of #MeToo."

"Epstein and his allies derided the women who came forward while expressing concern about the movement’s impact. Epstein sent links to news articles and swapped messages about which powerful men 'went down,' were 'up to bat' and had been 'whacked.'”

"Behind the scenes, Epstein used his resources and influence to advise other men accused of sexual misconduct, like [Lawrence] Krauss, and wondered how the reckoning could impact him."

"Epstein was closely monitoring the fallout of allegations against producer Harvey Weinstein, who would later be convicted of rape; directors Woody Allen and Brett Ratner; talk show host Charlie Rose; comedian Louis C.K.; former 'Today Show' host Matt Lauer; and ex-CBS chairman Les Moonves."

"In advance of Maxwell’s stonewalling, Khanna has now submitted, in advance, the exact questions he intends to ask Maxwell and asks Comer to confirm whether she will invoke the Fifth in response to each one.
Those questions go straight to the core of the Epstein scandal, including:
Maxwell’s prior claim that there were 'four named co-conspirators' and 25 additional men who were not indicted"

"Who those individuals are and why they were never charged
What evidence or personal knowledge Maxwell has about decisions not to prosecute
Her documented social relationship with Trump and Epstein, including whether access to underage girls was ever facilitated
Whether any discussions occurred about a pardon or sentence reduction after Trump publicly said he would 'look at' a pardon"

"More Epstein files released this week revealed a bombshell that Trump Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick did business with Epstein. That means Lutnick lied when saying he had zero interactions with Epstein after 2005. We need to know what else Lutnick has lied about."

"Now that we’ve seen that Howard Lutnick and Elon Musk were lying about their ties to Epstein? Now that we’ve seen how Epstein and Peter Thiel rejoiced over a return to tribalism post-Brexit?
Holy hell! These files reveal that QAnon was mostly just projection."

The surprising results of two special elections has set off a scramble to assess whether this is just an unusually strong backlash to an incumbent leavened by a response by Latinos to Trump's dragnet. But what if something more is going on, something we can barely see because of our own bubbles?
"And so, because of its deep belief in the former corp of MAGAt, Epstein is becoming a metonymy for the corrupt elite, with Trump at its center, surrounded by all his oligarch buddies who’ve cashed in treating average people like disposable objects."

"Republican Rep. Thomas Massie called for Howard Lutnick’s resignation, claiming the Epstein files show Lutnick visited Epstein’s island and did business with him, and arguing he lied in a way worse than a British ambassador who was fired.
Massie warned he may use the 'nuclear option' if Bondi refuses to unredact the names of Epstein’s clients."

Good afternoon, everyone.
Epstein survivors have released a powerful video that will air as an ad during the Super Bowl. Link is below.
"Howard Lutnick, who used to be a fixture on the Sunday shows every week, remains in hiding since the last Epstein drop proved he lied about his connections to the child sex trafficker. …
Lutnick’s name appeared in more than 250 documents in the Epstein files released by DOJ."

He 'may' do that?
is that a real threat?
In the UK Epstein's files have caused the termination of 2 high ranking elites: a prince and a lord;
and possibly the resignation of PM Starmer this week.
New York Times columnist David Brooks and Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart join John Yang to discuss the week in politics, including the MAGA debate over releasing the Epstein files intensifies and congressional Republicans deliver Trump a win by clawing back $9 billion in foreign aid and public media funding.
