Here are some excerpts:
Revealing and revolting reporting on the lawyer working to free Ghislaine Maxwell. He's a longtime associate of Todd Blanche."She requested Camembert cheese and fresh French bread." In prison. And he got it for her 🤯Poor Ghislaine is "a scapegoat.""We live in an age of sexual McCarthyism." "A lot of innocent people" are being "caught up" in the Epstein scandal.

Scott Pelley asked me why I am speaking out where others have stayed silent. My answer: I am worried about the future of our country. This president appears to be selling off pieces of our democracy.

The Comey indictment has "exposed the limits of the justice system to provide a check on Trump's will." www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
Liz Oyer, the Justice Department’s former pardon attorney who was fired by Trump Justice Department officials this year, said the investigations of Comey and other Trump critics has exposed the limits of the justice system to provide a check on Trump’s will.

“We are realizing now that our justice system really relies on those who are entrusted with power exercising that power in good faith,” she said. “That has worked throughout our history, but it is no longer working because we have an elected leader who has intentionally decimated all of the safeguards within the system, has loaded the department with people who are blindly loyal to him and is willing to tear down the whole system to get what he wants, which is revenge against his enemies.”
