Agreed, but the woman also alleged abuse by Epstein, and the estate is actively settling with others (including a class action). I am not saying the Trump allegations aren't involved, but we can't say for certain they were.
Did you get that from Freud?
...maybe there's hope for us after all.
Precisely my fear. Making the most predictable military move possible (sending troops to secure the Strait) with an inadequate force...not good.

We will have to see how everything shakes out, but I have this sinking feeling that the combination of the U.S. doing nothing during earlier Iranian oppression of its people and now apparently indiscriminate bombing has given the regime an elongated lease on life.
My wife is half Filipina, so I am telling her that one of her legs killed Magellan!
Warm greetings (but no sympathy!) from Calgary, Alberta. :)
Have you done Alberta? My father took the Canadian last year from Toronto and had a grand time.
If only time cube guy were still with us, he could be the dean of the White House press corps.
You're right -- 'self-interest' was poorly phrased. But the estate has also settled with other Epstein accusers. My point is that we cannot say with any certainty that it had anything to do with Trump.
If everything weren't so horrible it would be darkly humorous that the 'Secretary of War' is so obviously terrified by...war.
This is a newsworthy story, but I hate the "Trump Settlement" framing. The settlement was paid out to someone who alleged abuse by both Epstein and Trump. It might have been done by Epstein purely for self-interest. Who knows?
That's quality side-eye!
I don't know, but I think the best course right now is to be skeptical, especially of the things you can easily believe. At least that's what I try to do.
Incredibly important and deserving work (that will help you really understand this moment in US history better, too)
I am honestly shocked that oil prices aren't like 25-30% higher right now.

A grim BBC report from Havana filed 4 days ago. The Trump Administration is deliberately causing the worst humanitarian crisis of my lifetime in the western hemisphere and the US prestige press can't be bothered to cover it. Please shame them into reporting on this crisis before people start dying.
I have heard Ms. Brown express some skepticism regarding Epstein's death, but I have never seen her explicitly come to this conclusion. Can anyone point me to a source where she does?
Rogan is like Punxsutawney Phil, except that instead of predicting winter, he gives you insight into the thoughts of jackasses throughout the country.
I literally had to stop reading that thread, I just couldn't take it [meant to be laudatory to the poster!].
Fair.
I am generally persuaded that Trump would be too fearful for his own physical safety to do that--it strikes me as cowardly and narcissistic enough to be true.
But I think the concern is entirely legitimate.
"Sloppelganger" is one for the ages
Oooh, Randy Fine is Jewish? I didn't realize that. Yeah, as I said, she is still insane and bad. Just trying to figure out what her play is here.
Hoo boy -- lawyers, if you feel the need subject yourself to someone else's nightmare, this is the perfect thread for you.
