The ongoing revelations from The Epstein Files are shocking to many, but to some, it's merely confirming what's already been known for decades about its many boldface names, including Trump, of course, his wife-in-name Melania, and Jeffrey Epstein's pimp, Ghislaine Maxwell. After all, Jeffrey was investigated for under-age sexual assault and sex trafficking in 2005, indicted in 2006, and walked scott-free in 2007 with a slap on the wrist, or what was called the "deal of the century," in which he served no jail time for pleading guilty to two felony prostitution-related charges. The deal required him to register as a sex offender.
So people knew. Especially all those bold-face names who continued to party with him at various locales, including the notorious "Epstein Island."
Yet it's Hilary and Bill Clinton who'll soon come under fire in closed door depositions they're required to give the federal government in a Republican-led probe later this month. Not Trump - who's mentioned "thousands of times" more than either Clinton in The Epstein Files, according to stats compiled so far.
The Clintons are demanding that their depositions be given in an open, public, and televised forum for all to see. So far, Republicans have balked. They haven't said why they prefer everything in private, but given the last time Hilary, especially, underwent a public grilling. it's not hard to guess why.
POSTSCRIPT: Comments in last week's Lunocracy asked that no more pictures of Trump be included in future posts. One even asked that he not be mentioned at all. I get it, I really do, but I would also kindly remind you that Lunocracy was created solely so that Open Posts would be politics-free. Lunocracy is not intended to be politics-free, and like it or not (I don't), present-day politics means we must talk about Trump.
Still, I'll leave you with happy thoughts and even a picture. The Winter Olympics. In Italy. With French skater Guillaume Cizeron. You're welcome.
