I don't know if people are keeping up with the Epstein stuff. It's interesting that it has had a resurgence, even if mostly just to have something new to throw at Orangutan Hitler for once.

Wolff seems to be downplaying a lot of things? Epstein is broadly knowledgeable but isn't intel-tier. Trump is less involved, breaks up with Epstein back in 2004 over real estate and probably reported Epstein for the childs exact stuff. (which would be a really wild move if he were involved in that same vein of degeneracy) Epstein was just a cool charismatic guy who had hotties on him constantly and used that to hang out with nerds.
It is interesting that Epstein didn't already have his will set up with a trust. If someone had killed him a bit sooner, would the beneficiaries of his old will be public knowledge?

>Yes, a Friday evening. He died Saturday morning. I had sent him a message —“How are you? Hope you’re holding up”—relayed through his lawyers. Several days before he died, he had apparently tried to hang himself and was put in the infirmary. His message was, “Still hanging around.” Then he died that morning with a bedsheet around his neck.
I enjoy reading about men who try to get on top of the world and have their way with it, even if they fail, even if I don't like them. Keith Rainere for one, even tho he flew too close to the sun with his incompetent sexy pyramid scheme. I think people underestimate how rare it is to find someone who actually does something with no mental barriers holding them back.
>“We were walking and I was beginning to have very distant, at that point, doubts about him,” Vicente testified in May 2019. “And he said something to me that sounded, you know, one of the usual things that sounded very ‘principle.’ And I said to him, ‘Well, you could be a psychopath and say those exact same words.’ “He seemed to me to get very excited. And he said, ‘Well, I could be. Let’s say I am.’ And the whole discussion continued. To me it was a strange response, his what I perceived as excitement about it.”
