The more than 50-page report alleges that Trump was “an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse of young women in the mid-to-late 1990s.”

A Democratic Judiciary Committee source told MS NOW the report draws on publicly available accounts as well as conversations with survivors. The source declined to provide additional details about those conversations, citing concerns for survivors’ privacy. The source also declined to quantify how many survivor conversations they had.

The report also compares Trump’s statements about Epstein in recent years to documentary evidence — including emails, deposition transcripts, Trump’s prior public statements, and Trump’s drawings and signatures.

    The world has become numb enough that it will only ever condemn atrocities or at best shake a fist at them. Trump’s horde has proved that you can get away with anything as long as you brazenly ignore common sense and basic human decency.

    this is not surprising news to some Americans, and the ones that it would surprise will not listen or will outright reject it as satanic bullshit or whatever.

    there’s never a course to govern the media companies like foxnews entertainment because they profit from that form of abuse.

    any mention of epstein on musk’s or bezos’s media darlings will be automatically squashed. same with fox and NBC.

    for example, just look how they treated Melania documentary vs musk’s.

    But not really surprising as much of this information was publicly released, this is just a report compiling it together in one easy-to-find and parse report.

      Compiling and organizing increases the chance of people understanding the big picture so it was worth the effort.

        Useful and worth it? Yes, absolutely. A surprise? No, I wouldn’t say so.
