Weird. In the Lankford bill (which promoted ankle monitors) they didn’t call them “shackles.” Restrictionists should adopt the term, since their preferred requirement is detention, not ankle bracelets. ‘Beds, not shackles!’ https://t.co/3FgejLPfZa

And of course Blanche is, implicitly if not explicitly, carrying with him the prospect of a pardon or commutation for Maxwell … Normally prosecutors dangle favorable treatment if criminals implicate others, but the opposite seems more likely in this case. Whole thing stinks. https://t.co/fmaVvVIkDO

“Tapes” may be the wrong word. In Florida, “Epstein had purchased covert cameras …[the] images were then downloaded onto a proprietary spyware software for later viewing.”–from “Dead Men Tell No Tales” by Howard, Cronin & Robertson

Blanche is a proud co-architect of DOJ’s “no further release” Epstein case shutdown memo. https://t.co/hW858gOPhb Is he the guy you trust negotiating with Ghislaine Maxwell, one of the last possible sources of actual information on the case? He should stay out of it. https://t.co/xndsByrJwY

Wolff’s persistence in pushing this idiotic BFF epiphany suggests he doesn’t have the goods on Trump-ie evidence of pedophilia-nor does he expect the goods to emerge, whatever photos Wolff says he has locked in his safe. Hence the fallback: ‘I don’t need goods! They were BFF!’ https://t.co/Jwdyp5wxch

“Funding is ephemeral. Legislation is lasting.” True, but amnesty is forever. Good report on internecine debate among restrictionists on whether to explore deal to trade “a partial amnesty for millions of resident illegals in exchange for trimming the legalized inflow of https://t.co/Ogpx8qfTNu

This was a great institution, for the brief shining moment when Clubhouse was cool. (They were mocking Clubhouse.) Convinced me that there was hope. Glad they are bringing it back. https://t.co/j9qDkyyfoe

Note that the Maria Farmer who was the source for the @NyTimes’ big anti-Trump story over the weekend (https://t.co/xZ2tKqC7R9) was also a main source for the existence of Epstein’s elaborate video surveillance system (“toilet, toilet, bed, bed”) https://t.co/AS922412B5

Wolff recommits to his silly morph ’em strategy: “How can we condemn Epstein but excuse his BFF Trump?” Wait, I know! Call on me teacher! Trump may have been a “sexual sleazeball,” but Epstein screwed underage girls–children, by law. Seems a distinction.https://t.co/AmL0nLNX0U
