The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika " an emblem of fascism and white supremacy inextricably linked to the murder of millions of Jews and the deaths of more than 400,000 U.S. troops who died fighting in World War II " as a hate symbol, according to a new policy that takes effect next month. Instead, the Coast Guard will classify the Nazi-era insignia as "potentially divisive" under its new guidelines. The policy, set to take effect Dec. 15, similarly downgrades the classification of nooses and the Confederate flag, though display of the latter remains banned, according to documents reviewed by The Washington Post. read more

Laura,
"Who cares why she was called piggy. The POTUS isn't supposed to be calling anyone names."
I never said I agreed with it.
Yeah, it's not standard protocol.
But if a grown adult can't handle a blunt comment from the person in charge, they're in the wrong line of work. Power doesn't slow down for delicate feelings, and the people who hold it know that.
After decades dealing with owners and executives, I saw one thing.
Thin skinned people get chewed up.
Not because anyone is cruel but because that's how the top of the food chain operates.
Some of you liberals sound shocked every time a politician acts like anything other than a guidance counselor.
It comes from living a life so cushioned that normal, everyday bluntness feels like an attack.
I've worked with a handful of decent bosses. The rest? Demanding and absolutely uninterested in your emotional comfort.
That's the real world.
Trump doesn't pull his punches.

Your lack of self awareness is something to behold

"a grown adult can't handle a blunt comment " like a president that can't handle a reasonable question without reacting like a child?

"they're in the wrong line of work." President Piggy certainly is as he doesn't understand the basics of the job

"Power doesn't slow down for delicate feelings, and the people who hold it know that." Delicate feelings? Like being insulted because he was asked a question? Hint people who are actually powerful, you know, confident, do not act like children throwing a temper tantrum

"Thin skinned people get chewed up." President Piggy is the thinnest skinned person in modern history, possibly in centuries

"Not because anyone is cruel but because that's how the top of the food chain operates." Perhaps you could quote any president in American history who called a female reporter a "piggy" for asking a question (or something as equally as childish) I'll wait

"Some of you liberals sound shocked every time a politician acts like anything other than a guidance counselor." Only the soulless would not be offended by that sort of behavior from a leader, let alone the POTUS

As an aside, should the president NOT have to answer to the country for his actions and statements? I mean is it his right of office to not be answerable?

"Trump doesn't pull his punches." Trump's baby hands can't reach the end of his shirt sleeves let alone hit someone.

Honest question, do you think calling a female reporter denotes strength?

IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE 15TH
JUDICIAL CIRCUIT IN AND FOR PALM
BEACH COUNTY, FLORIDA
Case No. :50 2009 CA 040800XXXXMBAG
JEFFREY EPSTEIN,
Plaintiff,
SCOTT ROTHSTEIN, individually, and
BRADLEY J. EDWARDS, individually,
Defendants,
STATEMENT OF UNDISPUTED FACTS

Bradley Edwards was an attorney in a civil case against Epstein

Maxwell is not the only important witness to lie to avoid deposition by Edwards. Upon review of the message pads that were taken from Epstein's home in the police trash pulls,
see Exhibit "J" supra, many were from Jean Luc Brunel, a French citizen and one of Epstein's closest pals. He left messages for Epstein.

One dated 4/1/05 said, "He has a teacher for you to teach you how to speak Russian. She is 2x8 years old, not blonde. Lessons are free and you can have your 1st today if you call."

See Messages taken from Jean Luc Brunel are attached hereto as
Exhibit "EE." In light of these circumstances of the case, this message reasonably suggested to Edwards that Brunel might have been procuring two eight-year-old girls for Epstein to sexually
abuse. According to widely circulated press reports reviewed by Edwards, Brunel is in his sixties and has a reputation throughout the world (and especially in the modeling industry) as a
cocaine addict that has for years molested children through modeling agencies while acting as their agent " conduct that has been the subject of critical reports, books, several news articles,
and a 60 Minutes documentary on Brunel's sexual exploitation of underage models. See
bradmillershero.blogspot.com attached hereto as Exhibit
63. Edwards learned that Brunel is also someone that visited Epstein on approximately 67 occasions while Epstein was in jail. See Epstein's jail visitor log attached as
Exhibit "GG."

Edwards provided notice that he intended to depose Alan Dershowitz. Edwards
possessed a legitimate basis for doing so: (a) Dershowitz is believed to have been friends with
Epstein for many years; (b) in one news article Dershowitz comments that, "I'm on my 20th
book... The only person outside of my immediate family that I send drafts to is Jeffrey" The
29
Talented Mr. Epstein, By Vicky Ward on January, 2005 in Published Work, Vanity Fair (See
article attached as Exhibit "00"); (c) Epstein's housekeeper Alfredo Rodriguez testified that
Dershowitz stayed at Epstein's house during the years when Epstein was assaulting minor
females on a daily basis; (d) Rodriguez testified that Dershowitz was at Epstein's house at times
when underage females where there being molested by Epstein (see Alfredo Rodriguez
deposition at 278-280, 385, 426-427); (e) Dershowitz reportedly assisted in attempting to
persuade the Palm Beach State Attorney's Office that because the underage females alleged to
have been victims of Epstein's abuse lacked credibility and could not be believed that they were
at Epstein's house, when Dershowitz himself was an eyewitness to their presence at the house;
(f) Jane Doe No. 102 stated generally that Epstein forced her to be sexually exploited by not only
Epstein but also Epstein's "adult male peers, including royalty, politicians, academicians,
businessmen, and/or other professional and personal acquaintances" " categories that Dershowitz
and acquaintances of Dershowitz fall into; (g) during the years 2002-2005 Alan Dershowitz was
on Epstein's plane on several occasions according to the flight logs produced by Epstein's pilot
and information (described above) suggested that sexual assaults may have taken place on the
plane; (h) Epstein donated $30 Million one year to the university at which Dershowitz teaches.
Based on this infoli__iation,

Take note of this

ershowitz reportedly assisted in attempting to
persuade the Palm Beach State Attorney's Office that because the underage females alleged to
have been victims of Epstein's abuse lacked credibility and could not be believed that they were
at Epstein's house, when Dershowitz himself was an eyewitness to their presence at the house;

That is fucking damning!!!!!!!!!!!
and diabolical

Bradley J. Edwards, Esq., provided notice that he intended to take the deposition
of Donald Trump. Edwards possessed a legitimate basis for doing so: (a) The message pads
confiscated from Epstein's home indicated that Trump called Epstein's West Palm Beach
mansion on several occasions during the time period most relevant to my Edwards's clients'
complaints; (b) Trump was quoted in a Vanity Fair article about Epstein as saying "I've known
Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy," "He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes
beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it --
28
Jeffrey enjoys his social life." Jeffrey Epstein: International Moneyman of Mystery; He's pals
with a passel of Nobel Prize"winning scientists, CEOs like Leslie Wexner of the Limited,
socialite Ghislaine Maxwell, even Donald Trump. But it wasn't until he flew Bill Clinton, Kevin
Spacey, and Chris Tucker to Africa on his private Boeing 727 that the world began to wonder
who he is. By Landon Thomas Jr. (See article attached hereto as Exhibit "NN") (c) Trump
allegedly banned Epstein from his Maralago Club in West Palm Beach because Epstein sexually
assaulted an underage girl at the club; (d) Jane Doe No. 102's complaint alleged that Jane Doe
102 was initially approached at Trump's Maralago by Ghislaine Maxwell and recruited to be
Maxwell and Epstein's underage sex slave; (e) Mark Epstein (Jeffrrey Epstein's brother) testified
that Trump flew on Jeffrey Epstein's plane with him (the same plane that Jane Doe 102 alleged
was used to have sex with underage girls); (f) Trump had been to Epstein's home in Palm Beach;
(g) Epstein's phone directory from his computer contains 14 phone numbers for Donald Trump,
including emergency numbers, car numbers, and numbers to Trump's security guard and
houseman. Based on this information,

all crap we knew alrady

Edwards notified Epstein's attorneys of his intent to take Bill Clinton's deposition.
Edwards possessed a legitimate basis for doing so: (a) Clinton was friends with Ghislaine
Maxwell who was Epstein's longtime companion and helped to run Epstein's companies, kept
images of naked underage children on her computer, helped to recruit underage children for
Epstein, engaged in lesbian sex with underage females that she procured for Epstein, and
photographed underage females in sexually explicit poses and kept child pornography on her
computer; (b) it was national news when Clinton traveled with Epstein aboard Epstein's private
plane to Africa and the news articles classified Clinton as Epstein's friend. (c) the complaint
filed on behalf of Jane Doe No. 102 stated generally that she was required by Epstein to be
sexually exploited by not only Epstein but also Epstein's "adult male peers, including royalty,
27
politicians, academicians, businessmen, and/or other professional and personal acquaintances" "
categories Clinton and acquaintances of Clinton fall into. The flight logs showed Clinton
traveling on Epstein's plane on numerous occasions between 2002 and 2005. See Flight logs
attached hereto as Exhibit "MM." Clinton traveled on many of those flights with Ghislaine
Maxwell, Sarah Kellen, and Adriana Mucinska, - all employees and/or co-conspirators of
Epstein's that were closely connected to Epstein's child exploitation and sexual abuse. The
documents clearly show that Clinton frequently flew with Epstein aboard his plane, then
suddenly stopped - raising the suspicion that the friendship abruptly ,ended, perhaps because of
events related to Epstein's sexual abuse of children. Epstein's personal phone directory from his
computer contains e-mail addresses for Clinton along with 21 phone numbers for him, including
those for his assistant (Doug Band), his schedulers, and what appear to be Clinton's personal
numbers. This information certainly leads one to believe that Clinton might well be a source of
relevant information and efforts to obtain discovery from him were reasonably calculated to lead
to admissible evidence.

ummm yeah clinton too, f him

t all relevant times Edwards has had a good faith basis to believe and did in fact
believe that yet another of the minor girls Epstein sexually assaulted was C.L. When she was
approximately 15 years old, C.L. was brought to Epstein's home by another underage victim.
While a minor, she was at Epstein's home on multiple occasions. Epstein engaged in one or
more of the following acts with her while she was a minor at his house - topless or completely
nude massage on Epstein; Epstein used a vibrator on her vagina; Epstein masturbated in her
presence; Epstein ejaculated in her presence; Epstein also demanded that she bring him other
underage girls. See Rule 413 Notice, Exhibit "E"; Incident Report, Exhibit "A."

believe that yet another girl Epstein sexually assault was A.H. When she was approximately 16

Marcinkova has reportedly been missing since early January 2024. Her disappearance may be linked to the release of the final batch of Epstein documents that same month.[23]

Jeffrey Epstein, Mar. 17, 2010, at 110 (hereinafter "Epstein Depo.") (Deposition Attachment
#1).1
When questioned about this subject at his deposition, Epstein invoked his Fifth Amendment right to
remain silent rather than make an incriminating admission. Accordingly, Edwards is entitled to the
adverse inference against Epstein that, had Epstein answered, the answer would have been unfavorable to
him. "[I]t is well-settled that the Fifth Amendment does not forbid adverse inferences against parties to
2. Epstein repeatedly sexually assaulted more than forty (40) young girls on

The allegation: Harth claimed that Trump made repeated unwanted sexual advances as she and her romantic
partner at the time, George Houraney, pursued a business relationship with the mogul in the early 1990s. She
said that on January 24, 1993, at Mar-a-Lago, Trump offered her a tour of the estate, then pulled her into his
daughter Ivanka's empty bedroom.
"He pushed me up against the wall, and had his hands all over me and tried to get up my dress again," Harth
said, "and I had to physically say: 'What are you doing? Stop it.' It was a shocking thing to have him do this
because he knew I was with George, he knew they were in the next room. And how could he be doing this when
I'm there for business?"
In 1997 Harth and Houraney sued Trump for breach of contract, and she filed a separate sexual-harassment suit,
accusing him of "attempted rape." They reached a confidential settlement in the contract suit, and as part of the
agreement Harth withdrew her suit.

Attempting to rape a woman in his daughter's room.
Ivanka would have been 12 at th time
