MSNBC host Joe Scarborough took to Twitter shortly after news of Jeffrey Epstein’s death broke Saturday morning to theorize about… a Russian connection?
I hope there’s in investigation of everyone who works at that particular facility, and I hope someone reminds them all that they are now “loose ends”, too.
I agree, but, kind of, well, “odd”, coming from him, given his history. And I’m not just talking about his being a former leading Repub deep in the anti-Clintons effort. I’m talking about the well-known CT regarding a former intern of his. Even if it’s baseless, weird for him to talk about this.
Well, who would have better insight into such a thing than someone like him.
Btw, to everyone who demands and expect a thorough investigation of this, well, sure, but by whom? Surely not by the folks whose legal, political, professional and social interests were likely served by his death and resulting silence. And that’s not necessarily just at the DoJ level. There was a reason those rumors about well-known Dems allegedly having been his “clients” came out the other day. It was a message to all who might be taken down by what he had to say, on both sides: back off.
As people have pointed out on Twitter, it would appear that no one has standing now to block law enforcement from taking possession of all potential evidence that was in Epstein’s possession.
But Trump wants to govern in the image of Putin or Kim -has governed in the images of Putin and Kim in that he does not respect any law that constrains him -so I fully understand the deep cynicism regarding the suicide explanation.
Joe: What is your evidence? You know that the simplest hypothesis is most often the correct one. Jail guards are notorious for sleeping on the job. They also know that there’s rarely any penalties for a prisoner suicide.
It’s just NOT the very rich & very powerful people who are very very happy today…Mrs Birther#3 is probably happy too…Epstein introduced her to Mr. Birther aka Predator King!
If Epstein’s suicide has no foul play, then he cheated a lot of his victims and took the easy way out.
If there was foul play in Epstein’s suicide, I think Russia’s exposure per se is indirect…through their puppet. So it seems likely that if there’s foul play, it’s through “local labor” (not foreign labor) using Russian playbook.
