2. Which is (part of) why I've argued for some time it's more likely Epstein was running an extortion racket

as opposed to an "all-powerful cabal of rich pedos", or a "sex trafficking empire" as one article from yesterday called it matter-of-factly when talking about the 12/19 deadline for release of materials.

Of course, perhaps we'll find out more on Friday on the subject. Not exactly holding my breath on that one though. Seems more likely it'll just be more innuendo and guilt-by-association of (mostly) Democrats (because Pam will make sure that's all that's in the release), with no solid evidence of sex-with-minors by anyone apart from Epstein and Maxwell, because any such info would be "part of ongoing investigations".
