Jeffrey Epstein Is Dead After ‘Suicide Watch,’ but Trafficking Probe Lives as Feds Scramble for Answers

Attorney General William Barr—whose father had hired Epstein to teach math at the tony private school Dalton in the late 70s—said in a statement Saturday morning: “I was appalled to learn that Jeffrey Epstein was found dead early this morning from an apparent suicide while in federal custody. Mr. Epstein’s death raises serious questions that must be answered. In addition to the FBI’s investigation, I have consulted with the Inspector General who is opening an investigation into the circumstances of Mr. Epstein’s death."

Southern District U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman said in a statement Saturday afternoon that “Today's events are disturbing, and we are deeply aware of their potential to present yet another hurdle to giving Epstein's many victims their day in Court.” He pointedly noted that “our investigation of the conduct charged in the indictment — which included a conspiracy count — remains ongoing.”

The second part sounds good but the first part....yes i am sure the Federal government will get right on this, with "Attorney General William Barr—whose father had hired Epstein"

I'm sure, although it would never become publicly knowledge, Trump pulls Barr aside and tells him to cool his jets when it comes to Epstein and digging to far into that possible hornet's nest!

I'm sure Trump, as well as many others, worries about skeletons in the closet" re-surfacing if one digs to deep!

I do not think Epstein is dead. Either witness protection or helped to escape. Check one of the islands he owns!

Nancy Grace posted that the cameras inside Epstein's cell or outside his cell were focused on Epstein.

"There should be — and almost certainly is — video of Epstein’s suicide at MCC. One hopes it is complete, conclusive, and secured," ~ Preet Bharara, former USAG, and former SDNY Prosecutor (22 hours ago).

For those of you who have "Stitcher", you can catch up on the Epstein situation by listening to Preet's podcasts.

Stay Tuned With Preet

Yes, but sometimes those darn things somehow seem to malfunction when they go to play the footage back!

I meant to say WEREN'T <<< my mistake the cameras were NOT focused on him inside the cell or outside... sooo sorry !

This whole thing just gets more interesting by the minute!

Stacey Abrams announces new voter protection program...

Standing in front of a room of labor workers from the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades at a convention in Las Vegas, Abrams announced plans for a multimillion-dollar initiative called Fair Fight 2020 to staff and fund voter protection teams in battleground states across the country ahead of the 2020 elections.

“We’re going to have a fair fight in 2020,” Abrams said. “I’m going to use my energies, and my very very loud voice to raise the money we need to train those across the country in our 20 battleground states to make sure that Donald Trump and the senate take a hike and we put people in place who know what we need to have.” .......:hangloose:

Steve King just keeps saying crazy stuff......


At what point is enough enough? And why hasn't Steve King done enough to get him kicked out of Congress?

His latest ignorant remarks are just one in a long list of many he's made in the past. After King's questioning of when the terms "white supremacist" and "white nationalist" became offensive, he was condemned by House Republican leaders and stripped of his committee assignments. That episode also spurred several Republicans to announce their plans to primary King in 2020.

More recently, JD Scholten, a Democrat who lost to King in 2018, announced his plans to run again.

IMHO, anyone with half a brain knows she should be the Governor of Georgia!

The Iowa Repugnant org finally decided to primary that creep. They're behind Feenstra, a vocal Trump supporter with no known white separatist ties. In a fair fight I'll put my money on Scholten over King in 2020, but not over Feenstra.

Mystery solved....
 

Accused "madame" and "Lady of the House," Ghislaine Maxwell, has been found after questions surrounding her whereabouts made international headlines. Is she in Europe? Or hiding in a picturesque Massachusetts beach town? Not exactly. Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein's former girlfriend and alleged co-conspirator in his suspected sex-trafficking operation, was found at an In-N-Out Burger restaurant in Los Angeles.

The New York Post obtained an image of the 57-year-old sitting alone at the burger chain's location in Universal City on Monday. With her dog in tow, she allegedly told an onlooker, "Well, I guess this is the last time I’ll be eating here!" Maxwell was reading a book called The Book of Honor: The Secret Lives and Deaths of CIA Operatives. Ironic, as authorities have been scrambling to track her down. It's the first time the British socialite has been photographed in public since 2016.

Not sure this constitutes as breaking new but......
 

Sarah Huckabee Sanders 'excited' to join Fox News as a contributor....

NYT Reporters Say They Uncovered New Sexual Misconduct Claim Against Kavanaugh
 

Two New York Times reporters say they’ve uncovered a previously unreported account of sexual misconduct allegedly carried out by Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh when he was a student at Yale.

In an op-ed for the Times, Robin Pogrebin and Kate Kelly said they learned of the alleged misconduct during a 10-month investigation of Kavanaugh’s life at prep-school and Yale, including the assault accusations, for their upcoming book, “The Education of Brett Kavanaugh: An Investigation.”

Max Stier, Kavanaugh’s classmate at Yale, told the reporters that he once saw Kavanaugh with his pants down while his friends pushed his penis into the hands of a female student during a dorm party.

According to Pogrebin and Kelly, Stier reported his account to senators and the FBI, though the FBI didn’t investigate it. Pogrebin and Kelly said they “corroborated the story with two officials who have communicated with” Stier.

What Stier said he witnessed is similar to an allegation lodged against Kavanaugh by his former classmate Deborah Ramirez, which was first reported by the New Yorker’s Ronan Farrow last September.
