A somewhat aspirational helicopter. The Robinson R66 isn’t exactly a Sikorsky VH-92.

I think it’s simpler than that. I suspect the inner conversation he had with himself was along the lines of “Hey, it’s a job, and I’ll get paid. I can pretend to be anything for money.”

(excerpt) And Lownie’s sources cast doubt on whether Epstein did take his own life, questioning the medical evidence and the series of unfortunate gaps in supervision in the jail where he was being held.

Because this has not, to my knowledge, been specifically touched on by the media since 2023 when Trump had Patel announce that the Epstein files would be released on “Day One”…

… (excerpt) …the medical examiner who conducted the autopsy on the dead sex offender’s body did not personally sign off on the ultimate finding that Epstein killed himself.[ Forensic Pathologist Dr. Michael] Baden also reiterated his opinion that Epstein’s autopsy evidence supports a finding that his death was more like [sic] due to a homicide rather than suicide.

In February, police investigated him for allegedly assaulting a woman in his D.C. apartment. In July, his landlord sought his eviction from that apartment, a $20,000-a-month luxury penthouse near the Wharf. And the Office of Congressional Conduct has recommended the House Ethics Committee review allegations that he benefited from federal weapons contracts while in office.

Now, Mills has been hit with new allegations: Lindsey Langston, the reigning Miss United States, has accused the Republican lawmaker of threatening to share sexually explicit photos and videos of her and threatening violence against her future boyfriends.”

This should be an easy layup for the opposition party.
