Traveling on Epstein’s plane with Epstein, Clinton and Ron Burkle is kind of the Trifecta of ___________.
Help me out here. I don’t want to get sued.

I think people are assuming (probably correctly) that if you hung with Epstein for any length of time and you’re not an idiot you knew what was going on. This isn’t a court of law, it’s a court of public opinion in which people are shamed even if they didn’t commit a crime. https://t.co/LuHuQXvz6y

Isn’t the rule of thumb that people know their economic situation better than the stats. If they think the economy is bad, pushing stats won’t convince them it’s good. If they think it’s good, hard to convince them it’s bad. Anecdotal data rules– anecdotal data from 300M people. https://t.co/V0rkhzIgmj

So it wasn’t blackmail–it was only kompromat! And it wasn’t a “sex slave ring.” It was only a group of friends accepting “carnal favors.” Got it.

“No Epstein sex-slave ring”-but Swaim says “some of Epstein’s former pals…may have accepted carnal favors, though perhaps not criminal ones.” Just a network of pals. Don’t call it a ring! (Note: You don’t need criminality for “kompromat”) https://t.co/dedAhEFAwZ
