1. With the Epstein stuff, it's too easy to fall into despair and think that there will now be no justice. In fact, there is action to be taken. For one thing: a hearing on how the suicide was allowed to occur.
2. Something else: police can now go through Epstein's estate looking for evidence of other crimes, without a warrant.
3. Third thing going forward: the civil case against Epstein's estate by his victims:
4. Fourth thing going forward: congress can and should investigate Acosta's deal with Epstein and other Epstein related matters.
5. Another thing going forward for police & for journalists: where is Ghislaine Maxwell?

1. Good thread on Russel Kirk & Jim Crow. The thing to note is that Kirk's 1958 editorial marked a shift in how Northern conservative intellectuals saw South. Kirk was from Michigan & previously not bad on race (he opposed Japanese American internment).
2. We tend to take the alliance of Northern and Southern conservative intellectuals for granted, but it's a product of an ideological shift from 1945-1960, a kind of precursor to the Southern strategy the GOP adopted in 1960s.
3. Prior to 1945, Northern conservative intellectuals & pundits (Mencken, Nock, Pegler) were blistering critics of white south, seeing it as cultural & moral backwater, & supported some measure of civil rights (primarily anti-lynching laws).

1. Coming up with conspiracies about Jeffrey Epstein is redundant since on the available evidence his whole life was a conspiracy. A child molester & pimp, with ties to spooks, who kept an army of odalisques that he supplied to his rich & powerful friends.
2. Conspiracy theories about Epstein are redundant and just muddy already murky water. What we need are investigations of Epstein. Worth remembering that Epstein's recent arrest was the product the patient, diligent journalism of @jkbjournalist
3. There's much still to investigate: the 2008 Acosta deal, Epstein's ties to intelligence & law enforcement, the tapes & records in Epstein's residences, the systematic failures that led to Epstein's apparent suicide in prison. I lay out a program here: thenation.com/article/jeffre…

1. It might be good to step back and ask what we know and what we don't know. Did Epstein kill himself? We don't know. According to authorities its an apparent suicide but still under investigation. washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
2. 2. Do we know if Epstein had previously try to kill himself? No, we don't. Epstein claimed that previous apparent suicide was from attack inside prison. The matter was under investigation & no conclusion had been reached. This article is clarifying. washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
3. Was this a failure of suicide watch program? This is complicated: Epstein was taken off suicide watch 12 days ago. If it was suicide then failure was in that decision to take Epstein off watch. Why was it made? nytimes.com/2019/08/10/nyr…

Here's the real news regarding #Epstein and #Pedogate that nobody is reporting.

Let's begin here: What the hell has been going on in all the *other* elite social circles, and before and after this period?

Does my question puzzle you? It shouldn't. You think this is a one-off?
Look, there's a simple and obvious point you have to bear in mind.

Just stop and think about this. If you do, it will blow your mind. It did mine.
If all these super-powerful people are capable of systematic child trafficking and abuse in *this* case and at *this* particular period of time, don't you think they and others like them do it in *other* places, and at *other* times?

What, you think this is a one-off?

How many 'girls' were waiting for their return to the boat?
Who owned the boat?
What does a 'handler' procure?
Is the 'handler' [one of many] connected to Epstein?
Flight logs reveal many hidden artifacts.

Jeffrey Epstein is a free man, despite sexually abusing dozens of underage girls according to police and prosecutors. His victims have never had a voice, until now.
amp.miamiherald.com/news/local/art… ht @soychicka
On a muggy October morning in 2007, Miami’s top federal prosecutor, Alexander Acosta, had a breakfast appointment with a former colleague, Washington, D.C., attorney Jay Lefkowitz.
It was an unusual meeting for the then-38-year-old prosecutor, a rising Republican star who had served in several White House posts before being named U.S. attorney in Miami by President George W. Bush.
