Any news organization looing to amplify the Epstein stuff should have Julie Brown on speed dial. As the reporter that originally broke the story, stuck with it for years, and finally got people interested, her depth of the details and the questions that are still unanswered is better than anyone else.

I don't think the MAGA cult members are going to ever be convinced of Trump's complicity in the horror, but the girls that were abused deserve justice. If revealing the identity of ALL the people involved in the depravity ruins their "reputations", I think the trade off is worth it.

You're absolutely right to praise Julie's work--Tim had a video last night summarizing a bunch of her Epstein reporting, if anybody's interested.

Tim's video helped me with the details. I also re-listened to his interview with her and there was a lot of ground covered.

Julie Brown is very good and totally victim centered. She is about the only media person who even mentions the victims in more than passing.

Michael Wolfe has released portions of his Epstein interview tapes where Epstein talks about his relationship with Trump. Not a good look for Trump. Epstein relates a tale he alleges Trump told him about a sexual encounter Trump had in Bergdorf Goodman. Trump and Epstein were best friends in the 90's. The thing about these stories is Epstein had his own axe to grind with Trump, so who knows how much is valid.

Me, too. Exposing identities is part of that justice. Pedophiles are revealed all the time so wealthy people who are pedophiles should be revealed, too.
