In #1 buzzsawmonkey said: I am increasingly convinced that "the Epstein files" are Trump's second-term Steele Dossier, which is being used to inflame the Jew-hater wing of the MAGA movement who are eager to have cover for abandoning their wholly phony past support for Israel under cover of shrieking, without evidence, that "Epstein worked for Mossad!" Traditionally, American Leftists have pretended to support the rights of American Jews to cover for their implacable hatred of Israel, while a segment of American "conservatives" have pretended to support Israel to cover for their implacable hatred of American Jews. Both groups were/are lying, but the "missing Epstein files" offer the opportunity the "conservatives" have longed for to provide cover for ditching their phony support for Israel and, accordingly, their opportunity to let their Jew-hate freak flag fly.

Several people have posted comments along the lines of yours, thinking that the brouhaha about the records is being intentionally inflamed by people and groups that want to separate Trump from the MAGA supporters. The Mossad angle would fit in nicely with leftists' goals. The idea that Israel would be using a US asset to control US politicians and deep staters is ridiculous; our own intelligence agencies would rather have power and control.

Good morning!

And in the category of “people different from us” (as the old “News of the Weird” category put it):

A Rockville man initially arrested following a Peeping Tom incident in a dressing room of a Montgomery County, Maryland, mall faces additional charges after police said they found child sexual abuse material and videos of him engaging in sexual activity with a dog on his phone.

Federal housing official submitted Schiff criminal referral to DOJ over mortgage documents

Based on media reports, Mr. Adam B. Schiff has, in multiple instances, falsified bank documents and property records to acquire more favorable loan terms, impacting payments from 2003-2019 for a Potomac, Maryland-based property,
