Epstein's Ghost Is Calling All the Shots in Trump's White House

Tara Palmeri: To say that Epstein is haunting Trump from the grave doesn't quite go far enough. Epstein has effectively risen from the dead to dominate Trump's presidency and threaten his legacy.

Borrowing the words of Fielding Mellish, spoken in a different context, Trump's Epstein Coverup really is "a travesty. It's a travesty of a mockery of a sham of a mockery of a travesty of two mockeries of a sham."

There's a new estimate that what we have seen of the Epstein Files is.... 2 percent of what exists.

Trump sure is determined to see that those Epstein Files he whipped his mob up about stay largely buried.
If it yawls like a sick old dawg, it's Old Yeller again.
Never heard anything, don't know nuthin, the most ignorant man in the world.
But once, they were very good friends.
" ... and may every day be another wonderful secret."

Well Obama had Epstein call the shots in his WhiteHouse.

Can you believe the whole Secret Service hiring prostitutes was made up to cover for an Obama staffer?

Lol the Obama general counsel contacted Epstein to help navigating the issue

Unreal.

It's unbelievable what Epstein and the disgusting orange chomo did to Katie Johnson.

In the SDNY document, plaintiff "prays" for relief from the Court, not the more common "seeks" relief from the Court.

Wow.

Some judges in SDNY and EDNY preferred certain language or terms, which might be the case here.

Attorneys and AUSAs know the USDJs they are dealing with.

There are some lawyers on drudge.com who can address this issue better than me.
