I wholeheartedly agree as do other dems I know. We are NOT hypocrites like the maga right. We do not blindly support and worship our political leaders and rich people. If they do the crime they should do the time, period.

I am with you.

If anybody, right or left, engaged with that sick f**k Epstein, they need to go DOWN.

I've been reading Charlotte's Web for a while but this one made a paid subscriber out of me. Your summary of the long-running Epstein scandal is invaluable (and sharable). I'm even hoping that, as with not-so-long-ago Watergate, it'll be the cover-up that takes the Trump administration down when the crimes themselves didn't do it.

Thank you for that summary of the Epstein saga. People are so focused on who is on the list that they seem to disregard what it is that was done, and the victims.

I do not care if democrats are on the list. Punish them all.

The MAGA crowd, interestingly, is as upset as they are only because they’ve been denied their lions in the coliseum moment, with democrats and liberals as the fodder

It’s fairly well known that the felon and Epstein were very good friends for over a decade. Both of them are seen in many photos from Mar-A-Lago and around NYC. I suspect that the files aren’t being released due to the felon having participated in the rape of underage girls on Epstein’s island.

Amen sister!

The challenge for me is trying to understand the level of cognitive dissonance MAGA folks are able to endure just to keep themselves moving through the world. I mean seriously, how are they able to ignore Trump's own statements, his own behavior and his general comportment?

The man is as morally corrupt as they come.

They are truly delusional in a way that defies reality.

Wow, Charlotte, this is the best summary of the Epstein/Trump saga I’ve read. It’s hard to watch the drama unfold and not feel the ick of it, so thank you for doing the hard work of watching and summarizing. Now… someone please leak that report! And hold the criminals accountable!

I don't care whether they're in the files either. In fact, I want to know so that we can see them prosecuted and cull them from the herd. But we evidently won't get that opportunity because Trump is in them, and his minions will never let them see the light of day.
