I confess to having become a trifle sick of repeating the core truth about the Epstein list.

It is, I repeat, inconceivable that the list does not exist. Follow my logic, please, while of course I defer to The Bulwark's wisdom and inside understanding.

It is impossible, simply illogical, beyond belief, that Epstein's criminal enterprise of sexual predation could have been run from mental notes. The list contains the names and access data on Epstein's 'clients,' stating their 'interests' for Maxwell's 'procurement.' It also contains all the Maxwell data, to offer to 'clients' with such proclivities. No enterprise of any size or complexity can operate without these data. Epstein's professional and predatory lives were a complex maze that had to be recorded, in detail. Once again, I rest my case.

Once more, to the point of reader boredom, Epstein died (murder, suicide) because he was a grave threat to the reputations of many elites. At any rate, he knew he faced a miserable future life, in court or in jail.

PS In response to a phone call from a friend about anyone's right to personal 'diversions,' there is an infinitely huge, yawning chasm between consensual adult play, and predation on minors.

In my book, consenting adults can do whatever they want. However, preying on children is the lowest of the low.

Of course, Mike. My point, precisely.
