Like Howard Lutnick made up a ridiculous lie that was totally pointless and actually counterproductive for his purposes.

And.

The lie itself can be condemnable, but not necessarily because Howard Ludnick is covering up any kind of pedophilic sex criminality, just because of the moral hysteria that's been allowed to be unleashed around this stuff, where any connection in any way to Epstein is grounds for censure.

I mean, it's not important enough even to draw my attention.

Like, who cares?

There's plenty of interesting material in the files, but like random emails.

I mean, that just goes to show how weaponizable this whole thing is and how the Epstein story or any kind of tangential connection to Epstein can be leveraged to serve some kind of preexisting agenda.

So if like Reid Hoffman and Elon Musk don't like each other,

then they could accuse each other of having a closer connection to Epstein than they did.

And it's just like a slugfest.

And yet I'm still struggling to understand what the underlying accusation of wrongdoing is supposed to be above and beyond just how perhaps Reid Hoffman and or Musk or whomever might have misrepresented the relationship.

Isn't there a fallacy of all this then?

Or another parallel is Hillary Clinton just came out this week and gave an interview on the BBC where she said, we, the Clintons, Bill and I, we had no real connections with Epstein, but Donald Trump...

we can just assume as unassailably true that he's in the process of orchestrating a coverup because he has something to hide.

And then on the other hand, Trump will toggle back and forth between Bill Clinton and Larry Summers and Reid Hoffman.

They're the ones who are truly implicated by their association with Epstein.

I had nothing really to do with the guy.

And then the next day he'll say, oh, I'm a little upset or rueful that Bill Clinton's been dragged into this mess.

And it just gets, you know,

framed around, organized around just like a partisan battering ram.
