And to me, it's also a broader story of impunity, not just about Jeffrey Epstein, but the people around him, many of whom –

really have not had a public reckoning about the roles they play in this.

The reason that people remain obsessed about Epstein to a large degree, I think, is that there are so many people out there who have not had a similar public reckoning.

And so to me, that's the great takeaway, that for people with a lot of money and power and connections, they really can act with impunity.

Thanks for having me.

Extremely significant, I would say.

So we woke up this morning to the news that Democrats on the House Oversight Committee had released three emails from Jeffrey Epstein's email account in which he and others were talking about Donald Trump.

And the emails appeared to show that Epstein –

recognized that he had some important information about his relationship with Trump and Trump's relationship with women or girls.

And just as we were all starting to kind of decipher the cryptic wording in those messages, the Republicans on the House Oversight Committee one-upped their Democratic counterparts and released additional Epstein-related emails, many of which are also about Donald Trump or at least mention Donald Trump.

And so we've been spending...

What feels like an eternity today, going through these emails one by one, reading them, trying to make sense of them, and trying to understand their implications for Trump and his administration.

Sure.

I can read them to you.

I've got them in front of me if you want me to.

OK, so there are three of them.

The first is from April of 2011.

And this is a time just contextually when Epstein had only recently been released from house arrest as part of his punishment for having solicited prostitution from a minor child.

He's seeking to kind of repair his reputation, and he's thinking about trying to get his guilty plea overturned.

And he writes to his longtime associate, Ghislaine Maxwell, I want you to realize that the dog that has not barked is Trump.
