Does anyone else wonder?

I wonder if the reason why Holy Mike refuses to release the Epstein files is because his name is in there?

The whole damn shooting match.

Dershowitz represented Epstein.


Dershowitz alleged that key documents in the Epstein case are being “deliberately, willfully suppressed” to protect certain individuals. He claimed to know both the names and the officials suppressing the information.

Pressed by Spicer on whether those individuals were politicians or business leaders, Dershowitz replied, “They’re everything.”

I'm a guy. I understand "lewd" but I'm a gentleman.
It's a choice.
They chose poorly.

I'll surely go to heaven.
Problem is
I'm Buddhist.

Can't win, eh?

But I do practice the good that I "preach". Sick world when that's extraordinary.

Nobody pulls the strings on me.

I'm sure he also fears the wrath of Trump's cult followers.
