The issue isn't whether the bigshot donations helped rehab Epstein (obviously yes). The issue is why did the multi-billionaire bigshots owe this puny half-billionaire "favors." For what?
Apologies for rehabbing Epstein are a distraction at this point, no? https://t.co/cYCz0shWr7

YIKES:" But it was understood that Black and others owed Epstein "favors" — perhaps they owed Epstein money for some kind of financial advice — and that Epstein could ask them to send those sums directly to MIT" https://t.co/OaRPGwAQr7

Mexico may be pushing back but there ain't a lot of it in this hyped story, Mild statement ("we don't agree with it") from foreign minister.//"Mexico pushes back after top U.S. court favors Trump on shunning migrants." https://t.co/V3Wc8vPg9e

I think Rove is wrong** — lazily, pompously wrong — and @MrWalterShapiro is right. https://t.co/SEyjLEPyey Don't see why another Gary Hart is not possible — and the "Feiler Faster Thesis" says there's more time to do it than before — not less.

Scaramucci self-detonated and got fired after 11 days, and now *he's* the @WashingtonPost's go-to quote on how the Trump White House works? That's so cheesy. It would be more informative if @AshleyRParker interviewed @maggieNYT https://t.co/hIJJzB0WAT https://t.co/KAiiQuskjK

HUH? #2, "He tolerates a modicum of dissent, so long as it remains private; expects advisers to fall in line and defend his decisions; and demands absolute fealty at all times." How is that
'Kafkaesque"? Seems pretty straightforward and not unusual. https://t.co/L6PTlKt3ls— Mickey Kaus (@kausmickey) September 12, 2019

HUH? "The president enjoys gladiator fights-pitting his aides against one another like so many ancient Romans-but only if he can play emperor, presiding over the melee and crowning the victor." Isn't that how it usually works? FDR had Ickes vs. Hopkins. Who do you think decided? https://t.co/j5eAVhMcFd

Good idea. On the other nothing could make this story boring like a new Church Committee. Proven route to tedium. If the "Epstein Project" *were* a Mossad operation, and I were the Mossad, I'd immediately demand Trey Gowdy be named to head a special bipartisan investigation. https://t.co/pDE78H9v1H

Is the "parenting wage" work-tested (e.g. someone in household has to work to qualify for it)? Or should we call it Aid to Families with Dependent Children? https://t.co/plLrEjwVzZ

Why is Ford debt junk? "[L}et's be honest, they’ve not really offered any sort of true replacements for all the sedans they binned last year." Not a good when a car company decides it can no longer build … cars. Toyota can. Honda can. Mazda can. https://t.co/4b7rMU8MIl
