Surely that's not legal anymore?

(I know a lot has been written on this today and in the preceding days, but this is worth more than a glance - bringing together a lot of the sordid pieces. Please read the article on Wonkette.)

Six weeks ago, House Speaker Mike Johnson hastily shooed legislators off for an early summer break rather than bring a vote to the floor on The Epstein Files Transparency Act, co-sponsored by retiring conservative Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky and Rep. Ro Khanna of California.

But the Epstein Files drama behind the scenes did not stop! Trump criminal defense attorney and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche spent part of his summer vacation meeting with convicted child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell, who not-for-nothing participated in the rapes, and getting her a spot in summer-camp prison after she said on tape that Donald Trump had never been anything but a perfect gentleman in her presence, and she admires him so much.
