Federal prosecutor in Florida in 2007 told bosses #Epstein was a “danger to children” and begged them to urgently seek his arrest.

“She proposed a 60-count indictment that charged Epstein and some of his assistants with sex trafficking and other crimes.”

In nearly 20 instances, Villafaña felt “pressured, intimidated, threatened, coerced” or wrongly influenced to take a position or action she disagreed with, she wrote in 2019. From her point of view, her bosses had allowed Epstein’s legal team to undermine the case she was building.

Epstein’s missing computers, which she felt “likely contained hard evidence of travel, contact with victims, obstruction of justice and possibly child pornography,” she wrote in 2019.

Republicans did this and Bondi looked the other way on this one as well.

I know I've mentioned this before but, the guys who drive around with all this gear bolted to their trucks cracks me up. I just saw a dude drive by with all kinds of shit - traction doohickeys, LPG canisters, ropes, shovels, who know what else.

Gender-affirming vehicle flair.

OK, this mess of a day is done. Time for a walk.
Trump, Putin, Netanyahu — I’m so tired of these rich, old, murderous men who cling to power and make the world suffer, desperately trying to escape justice. So damn tired.
There was ONE ATC in the tower at LGA during last night's crash. ONE ATC, at LGA!, dealing w ALL air and ground traffic, including a plane filling w a strange smell and no gate to return to. The Pentagon wants $200B for a vanity war, but our ATC towers are empty. Budgets are moral documents.
