But forget Patel’s “trafficked” qualifier. In her interview Maxwell virtually admitted that bigshot guests DID sometimes have sex with the girls. That’s all you need to run an influence/blackmail operation, no? Who cares if the girls were paid for each act, or if they were paid https://t.co/ISaskuZmWD

Patel says “no credible information, none… that [Epstein] trafficked to other individuals.” Is that true after Ghislaine Maxwell’s Todd Blanche interview? It would seem to depend on the flexible definition of “trafficking.” See query below: https://t.co/XdR6CkbeZX

Washington would be a better place if more officials were actually punished for failure, career-wise–which would lead more to ask if a particular course is mistaken and dissent publicly or quit if they feel they’ll be blamed. More Chester Bowleses, fewer partisan networkers. https://t.co/7Fd4cDRypW

I mean, is there no epic failure so damaging (to her party, among other things) that it would prevent Tanden from immediately re-assuming the helm of a prestigious think tank? Did Donald Rumsfeld get to run the Heritage Foundation after his Iraq debacle? https://t.co/tRw53LFNnL

Post-failure op-eds are cheap. Maybe if they a) confessed the errors in detail and apologized and b) disclosed to the voters what was really going on (something we still don’t know about Biden immigration policy). https://t.co/3krrZKC064

Barro’s piece much stronger confronting that Dems need to recognize that “being in the country without authorization is reason enough to deport someone” if the rules are going to mean anything. Tanden evades the issue. Anyway, what the hell did she do when she was in power? https://t.co/2VUStLCCok
