Fox's Judge Napolitano: Latest Manafort Revelations 'Would Fit Into' Category Of Collusion




Giuliani: I never said there was no collusion in the campaign




From the indictment:

After the July 22, 2016 release of stolen DNC emails by Organization 1, a senior Trump Campaign official was directed to contact STONE about any additional releases and what other damaging information Organization 1 had regarding the Clinton Campaign. STONE thereafter told the Trump Campaign about potential future releases of damaging material by Organization 1.

The Senior Campaign Official is Steve Bannon and Organization 1 is Wikileaks.

Topline: A federal appeals court Wednesday ordered that 167 documents in a lawsuit that alleges famously well-connected financier Jeffrey Epstein participated in a sex-trafficking ring should be unsealed—and that many of his powerful friends could be named.



  • In its 27-page decision, the court cited the public’s right to access the case information outweighed the privacy of certain individuals, “including numerous prominent American politicians, powerful business executives, foreign presidents, a well‐known Prime Minister, and other world leaders.”
  • Virginia Guiffre (now Roberts) filed the lawsuit against Ghislane Maxwell, alleging that she had used her as part of a sex trafficking network of underage girls to Epstein and a number of his famous friends, including his lawyer Alan Dershowitz and Prince Andrew. Both men denied the accusations.
  • Dershowitz has supported unsealing the documents, according to the Daily Beast.
  • The documents will not be immediately available, as anonymous individuals involved in the case have two weeks to file appeals.
  • The court advised the documents be read carefully. “We therefore urge the media to exercise restraint in covering potentially defamatory allegations, and we caution the public to read such accounts with discernment,” wrote the court in its decision.

Julie Brown should have but didn't win a Pulitzer Prize for last year's coverage of the Epstein case. Alan Dershowitz, a lawyer long admired by news professionals (including me) -- and a member of Epstein's defense team-- asked the selection committee at Columbia U not to award Brown the prize, complaining of shoddy reporting. That was no mere criticism but a lie that would be laughable had it not come from Dershowitz. I can't say there was cause and effect there, but I can infer it justly and fairly. The PP for 2019 should be awarded to Brown for not one but two years of superb reporting.
