Update on the Epstein Doc Crop Fumble

Hi everyone,

Liz Wheeler is coming on today at 12:30 to discuss.

Seems everyone is made at how the incident unfolded.

Cernovich explains everything in his X stream yesterday. That the event was scheduled in advance, so not specifically scheduled for the Epstein docs. They talked about other stuff - invited as alternative media. They met RFK Jr, et.

He says Bondi explained the whole situation - re: nothing new in binders, but that the binders were given to them because FBI SDNY said that was the file. But that Bondi learned that FBI SDNY had not transferred the whole file.

They had their phones taken. There was an embargo on the story until after 15:30 (something to do with the brits).

When they left, legacy media photogs saw them and snapped the picture.

Liz, on Glenn Beck, explains that they were smiling, holding the binders more in defiance of legacy media - as if to say "we, the alternative media, got the invite and you didn't". She obviously regrets the way it came off.

Definitely botched, but I do not attribute any ill-will / opportunism to any of them.

Still the real scandal - if true - is the refusal to cooperate with FBI SDNY.

And my concern is that evidence is going up in smoke as we all wait, and that we will never get the "full" file.

See you all at 12:30.

No proof-ready. Me go for jog now.

In the stupider side of the news…

I saw this story and couldn’t believe it.

“Georgia police are searching for a man who picked up $30 off a Walmart floor — and the law is on their side”

George authorities posted a picture of a man who allegedly picked up $30 he found on the ground in a Walmart.

George law requires someone who finds mislaid property to try and find the owner.

Not knowing the intricacies of Georgia law, there must be an exception for objects of minimal value. Unless you are supposed to trace down the owner of every nickel, dime and quarter you come across.

I imagine there must be an exception for petty loose cash specifically, given its fungibility. The case-law relating to “found cash” consisted of a bag of cash, with checks and deposit slips - hence identifying the owner of the cash would be easy.

This story is ridiculous.

Anarcho-tyranny.

A. Art of the Day

A different time, a different era. The suit, the dresses, the top hats, the old clocks, the decorated ceilings, the hand-crafted bars, the art deco lights, the bartender in a tux, a trip back to where even the everyday was elegant, the ordinary was glamorous, and the commonplace was anything but.

A. Art of the Day

From a board member, the liveliness in this photograph, balancing and blending nature to the inner surroundings, the warm, thick, colorful carpet above stone floors, the brick-made walls below the wooden beam roof (reminding me of the old homes on the little island in the center of Paris), the broad windows embracing the light, the flowers percolating throughout, the spices along the shelves, the pillowed chair waiting, all so natural, so human, so inviting.

A. Art of the Day

Early morning hours in Venezia, the fog rolling over the canals, the gondalas slipping through the waterways encircling and interpersing the city, ancient buildings of the civilizations of old standing strong, Gothic walls weathering centuries of storms and war, the maze of bridges criss-crossing the inner walls of the city, beckoning us as the bakers begin their bread-making and the cafes start up their lattes, walking steps Marco Polo once crossed, a true gem of a city to awake to, like Atlantis risen from the sea.
