Amazingly disappointing. 13 reporters contributing yet fails to crack Biden’s “circle of close confidants,” doesn’t even mention what Mayorkas’ role was, spends a lot of time on a few people who had bad ideas (e.g. flying migrants to their destinations at public expense). https://t.co/Jfo623DbrP

I know Bill Gates’ spokeswoman’s said Gates was amused by Epstein’s “unique decor” in other contexts https://t.co/5GyimzjTp8, but these island rooms seem kind of…dreary.

Key point of course, is that as far as we know *nothing happened*–i.e. he didn’t make a pass at her. He talked about it with his highly suspect buddy Epstein (half of me thinks he made it seem important to amuse and suck up to Epstein, from whom he wanted donations). https://t.co/aqvHnwEBOh
