“It’s a big club, and you ain’t in it.” — George Carlin

Stanley Kubrick was no dummy and had access to many in elite spheres. I’d say he was in the big club himself. It’s no stretch to imagine he knew what was going on.

What the right-wing conspiracy theorists lack, though, is class consciousness. Maybe Epstein’s bipartisan list will shake a few of them out of their confusion.

    Looks like the house voted 427-1 to release it. Even if he doesn’t sign (political suicide imo), the senate will probably bust the veto.

        the most important parts are hidden behind national security; the stuff they release won’t do shit.

            you clearly haven’t, but don’t worry, you’ll see for yourself when the releases are so redacted that they look like window blinds.

              Every redaction has to have an explanation and a general description provided to Congress. It’s in the bill, just read it guy.

                exactly; it’s not going to be released to the public, which is what trump et. al. wanted to begin with and making this entire epstein scandal little more than a political distraction for liberals.

                  You missed the part where Congress can challenge reasonablity.

                  Ed: of and the part where every name mentioned must be provided and cannot be redacted.

                    can and won’t; read between the lines because there’s a reason why trump switched to endorsing it.

                    fwiw, i hope i’m wrong, but i’ve seen this political theater play out too many times in the last 5 decades to fall for it again.
