I’m the PP, and you are incorrect about who I am. Let me ask this: for those who are saying there’s no meaningful difference between those who appear (and you are correct to qualify this as “in the files that we have seen”), what process are you advocating, exactly? In your mind/s, what does accountability look like, and where does it begin? |
You don't know anything about Mitt Romney beyond what you see on TV and what his PR lets out. Why are so many of you so idol worshiping that you feel the need to exonerate public figures based on some weird parasocial affinity? |
*between those who appear and those who don’t (or don’t yet) |

The thing that's troubling me is when and how did she meet Epstein?
The released emails start in the summer of 2014, very soon after she left the White House, and are already chummy. Which implies that they already knew each other. That fall is when Holder resigned. At some point she withdrew her name from AG consideration supposedly because confirmation would have been difficult. Did someobody know about the Epstein connection then? |
How do you think she got the job of white house counsel? No one gets let into the room where the most sensitive misdeeds of the American president are being discussed, much less gets to make decisions about those misdeeds, without already being known as someone who is compromised and who is never going to get out of pocket. |
That's the next question The initial jump from Latham to the WH would have required someone powerful to vouch for her. Who was it? |

I'm the PP who keeps posting about the systemic rot. I have a suggestion. Not that it's ever, ever, ever going to happen in America, but something along the lines of the Nuremberg trials crossed with South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission is needed here. (Although even those tribunals were highly compromised and not allowed to look too far lest they expose too much. For instance, the number of high-level Nazis that the American government hired in places like NASA, for instance, was not allowed to be mentioned or even touched upon during the Nuremberg trials.) A systemic years long effort to clean up at least some of this mess by demanding everyone in power in that given time testify under oath is necessary. The carrot will be the same as that of South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission: That those, except the highest level of perpetrators, who come clean and expose everything publicly will be allowed to move on with their lives. I hate to see evildoers go unpunished, but it's going to take granting immunity to some level of evildoers -- the legal fixers, PR people, staff, and other enablers, but not the rapists, murderers, or traffickers -- to make sure that the worst ones are exposed and the whole system of corruption is weakened. Notice I say weakened because that is the most we can aspire to here IMO. All of this is better than what we're currently seeing. Americans are letting the most powerful actors, who orchestrated the scheme with Epstein, leak the names of easy scapegoats to create the appearance of justice being done and to direct attention away from the system that is STILL operating. |
| What's the connection between Karp and Ruemmler. It seems like Epstein was meeting with both of them at the same time. Was he getting off the books legal or strategic advice? |
Now, you're asking the right questions. These are the kinds of questions that the powerful are determined not to let the public ask. They would rather have you gasp about her than ask who her cronies and mentors were and what they're doing right now to maintain their power. Ask yourself how she ended up hired by Obama and what that tells us about Obama. Ask how Epstein was so powerful that Obama's counsel was his errand girl and plaything. The implications of just that thought process alone get scary very fast. |
Nailed it. |
Wow, did she not hire you? What’s with the hate? |
Huh? What’s with the hate? Pretty obvious to me. DP |
| When will she be fired??? |
It looks like it was Alice Fisher. Who just so happened to be AAG in 2008 when Acosta gave Epstein the sweetheart deal. Fisher interestingly enough was on Trump's shortlist for FBI director after he fired Comey. |
