Thanks for your post Glenn. And yes protest...but I think we need to do more protesting at gop congress people's homes and offices. trump touted that epstein in a wonderful guy, but then says that epstein's island was a cesspool--I guess trump would know because we all know trump saw it first hand. And this is just crap that there's nothing to see here. So if it's a hoax..why was epstein indicted and put in jail ? why was maxwell tried and convicted and sentenced to 20 years...what ? based on a hoax. trump thinks he can just pushing a lie over and over and over hoping people will start to believe it is the truth--a page taken from hitler--hey donnie--NOT GONNA HAPPEN. We know you are lying and we know you are guilty and on that list....oh that David Pakman says he has receipts that that list exists and bimbo bondi called on patel to release more than just the "list". What a fucking joke.

Wouldn’t surprise me at all. Also wouldn’t surprise me if something happened to her

Lets not talk about young women. Those would be legal. Children are not legal.

And Maureen Comey who worked on Epstein and Maxwell cases along with other high profile cases just fired.

As for trump and his supporters he has no further use for them so makes no difference what he says he had their votes which kept him out of jail. End of story.

No surprise with Trump’s possible pardon. I'll see your 50 cents and raise you 25 cents!

He got everything he wanted with the big ugly bill so he doesn't need those people anymore.

It wouldn’t surprise me if Maxwell had an accident. And it certainly wouldn’t surprise me if she received a pardon. And, shameful as I am these days, it wouldn’t surprise me if members of the Supreme Court and several members of congress and the senate were on that list, or one like it. How else could so many Americans turn against their country?

Yes Glenn that is the question, how would Maxwell leverage whatever she knows? If she has something on Trump she'd have to make him aware of it, on the QT. And Trump, being who he is would then have to convince her to stay quiet - but in prison - until the end of his term. Deliciously interesting to ponder.

Pardons to rich or connected criminals are his modus operandi.

If MAGA gets sufficiently upset, will it be enough to get a dozen or so GOP Senators to “Man up” and vote for impeachment? Will we be any better off with JD Vance? Would he pardon Trump? And will it be enough to repair the institutional damage - structural and cultural?

I am an Irish Canadian. To me, JD Vance is just as dangerous, if not more so, and there are also Steven Miller and all the others. It's like a Medusa rather than a single snakehead. I have empathy for Bondi if she was abused as a child and has been manipulated ever since.

P.S. On a more personal note, I’m delighted to see that you are a Hematology/Oncology research scientist, since I worked in a Hospital Lab for ten years as an undergrad - much of it in hematology, but rotated through pathology and the other departments as well. I look back on it fondly, not only because it was highly educational, but because my co-workers were such a delight to work with: a very diverse group - literally from all over the world. What I wouldn’t give to turn the clock back a few decades and spend a day with them!

P.P.S. Of course, I tell people my favorite department was Urinalysis because, when the phone rang, I could pick up the line and say, “Urinalysis … can you hold?”

. Original response: I think you’re exactly right, and your Medusa metaphor is spot on - wish I’d thought of it myself!

Another core concern is that so few people recognized the danger of Trump’s demagogic arguments early on. Even when pointed out by those who remembered their WWII history, the warnings were often shrugged off as overblown - just as they were in 1930’s Germany. If we manage to pull through, we will need to remember what the Founders said about the need for an informed electorate, and see that such things are stressed in High School.

If we heed its lessons, history need not repeat itself.

Liberty and Justice for all.

P.P.P.S. Sorry that the order of the initial response and PS were somehow reversed.
