There's almost 300 pages worth of notes and pictures.

Some of the stuff is absolutely disgusting, other stuff perfectly innocuous.

There is a two-sentence note from President Clinton. This was in 2003 when Epstein was doing some financing work for the Clinton Foundation and lending his plane for Foundation travel. So looks like just a little obligatory cursory favor from the most high-profile person Epstein knew at the time and he could brag about knowing. The note itself is nothing, other than the use of the term "childlike curiosity" Bill uses to describe Epstein, which in retrospect is a poor choice language.

That's a question for Merrick Garland. Wiz Imp Sep 9 #21
It may have been completely his decision, maybe not. It may have been just an oversight because of all the attention everyonematters Sep 10 #22
No maybe about it. Garland was head of DOJ. He decided what cases to pursue and what not to pursue. Wiz Imp Sep 10 #23
How could you know that for sure? Do you think that the 40% of the registered voters who are not Democrats everyonematters Sep 10 #25

I'm not accusing him of anything. I am just saying the question needs to be answered. everyonematters Sep 10 #28
And I told you that was a question for Merrick Garland to answer but you wouldn't accept that answer. Wiz Imp Sep 10 #29
Biden was ultimately responsible for the exectutive branch. He could have inquired why no action was being taken. everyonematters Sep 10 #30
