Like, is this the standard to which I should assume people who have these kinds of jobs and run the biggest law firms in the world and banks and, you know, people who really should be the cream of the crop are guys who are talking about

you know, how low-carb pussy is.

Because I feel like I can't live like that.

And I don't want to send my kids off into this world to go work at these organizations.

And they might be finding out later that, you know, the head of the firm was...

sending things like this or visiting the island, even just knowing that somebody behaved like this and being OK with it.

And shout out to the people who pushed back, like Norm Finkelstein, the leftist academic, you know, Tina Brown's team at The Daily Beast really putting Epstein through the ringer, saying, like, if you want to come and talk to us, we're bringing a reporter with us.

Like, that's how you handle Jeffrey Epstein.

But mostly you just saw a lot of people who were downright charmed by somebody that they knew was into 12-year-olds.

I don't disagree with you, and this is a similar conversation that we were having at the height of Me Too when everyone was putting, like, Harvey Weinstein and Al Franken in the same bucket.

In the same boat.

Yeah, it's like, that's obviously insane, and I am not trying to do that at all.

And I think...

Part of what I'm reflecting, and some of this is definitely maternal, that, you know, I have two little girls at home, right, that are going to head out into the world and that there are going to be men that look at them when they're 11 to 14 years old and find them attractive, grown men, not just, like, little boys to, you know, have your first boyfriend, girlfriend, and kiss and maybe get to second base, is...

stirs something in me so fierce that I'm having trouble containing it.

And that's where I would say, yes, there are wrong place and wrong time folks in this and the way that the files work and also the fact that he received a ton of newspaper clippings.

So there are lots of names that were just in newspaper clippings that are now, quote unquote, in the Epstein files where those people certainly don't deserve to be in there.

But

Majority of the people that were interacting with him, even if it was cursory, was after he had been convicted of sex trafficking.

That goes back to 2008, right?
