A Christmas Message -
Hey Klaus -
When was the last time you saw a shoe shine guy?I still occasionally fly in a suit when I have a meeting in Boston or DC, but nowhere else. If I saw a shoe shine guy I’d probably use him, especially after this thread put it back in my mind. It’s not like I shine them myself. Though I’ll wipe them with a towel at a hotel.

The Epstein File -
The Epstein FileI don’t think you’d ever find me making such a case. My position has been that all the evidence suggests the garland DoJ operated by the book as far as we know. The ‘book’ is fine with expanding investigations if thats where evidence leads. Famous cases are the result of such expansions, from Anthony Weiner’s laptop to Rob Blagojovich to Arthur Andersen’s conviction in Enron.

Interesting re MAGA for the post Trump eraI agree a white racial backlash was inevitable to one degree or another once the dominant cultural institutions normalized the expression of racial animus against whites sometime during Obama’s second term. But it’s still worth doing what we can to minimize their impact on the culture.

The Epstein FileI think you’ve moved the goal posts. In July in this very thread we were arguing about whether the Garland DoJ would leak incriminating info on Trump. That question seems to have been settled.
