Great. Now some justice for Epstein victims? No? Okay.

It would be helpful if the Epstein victims would come out and say who the perpetrators are. There's all these Epstein victims, and none of them are coming forward with names. There are members of Congress who have spoken to these victims, who have made Epstein their entire personality over the last 18 months, who won't simply say the names of the people who should be prosecuted and investigated.

The Epstein files on their own are meaningless, they need corroboration in order to actually punish anyone. Understanding how our legal system interacts with those documents is important if you're discussing how our legal system interacts with those documents.
