According to an email in the second tranche of documents related to the late convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein‚ former President Bill Clinton allegedly put pressure on Vanity Fair to kill a story about sex trafficking and his “good friend J.E.” The documents‚ unsealed pursuant to a mid-December court order from Manhattan Federal Judge Loretta Preska‚ were part of a civil lawsuit filed by Epstein victim Virginia Roberts Giuffre against the financier’s convicted co-conspirator‚ Ghislaine Maxwell. While the majority of the documents in the first tranche pertained almost solely to the criminal behavior exhibited by Epstein and Maxwell‚ the second tranche delivered a list of associates whom Giuffre believed could have knowledge of that criminal behavior. Among those with potential knowledge of Epstein’s and Maxwell’s dealings listed in the documents were Prince Andrew‚ Duke of York and Clinton; one of Clinton’s advisers‚ Doug Band; and Sophie Biddle. Others listed in the documents included deceased model scout Jean-Luc Brunel‚ deceased Gov. Bill Richardson (D-NM)‚ and financier Les Wexner.

Clinton walked into VF and threatened them not to write sex-trafficing [sic] articles about his good friend J.E.‚” Giuffre wrote. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP Former Vanity Fair editor Graydon Carter pushed back‚ telling The Telegraph: “This categorically did not happen.” Journalist Vicky Ward also claimed that Epstein had worked to prevent Vanity Fair from writing a similar story. “‘I have reports here about you‚ your husband — I have everything under the sun that was sent to me by people who want to be helpful‚'” Ward quoted Epstein‚ saying he had threatened her directly after she interviewed two of his victims‚ sisters Maria and Annie Farmer. Carter denied that as well‚ saying that the outlet had opted to cut certain information from the story because it had not been submitted in time and had not met legal standards. The documents do not go so far as to accuse Clinton of doing anything illegal. The Epstein method of operation is well known at this point‚ but it's important to see the words of his victims. One victim brought other high school girls to Epstein. Epstein wanted her "emancipated" so she could live with him. pic.twitter.com/k7CWblMVFh — Techno Fog (@Techno_Fog) January 4‚ 2024 Other documents spoke to Epstein’s pattern of behavior — bringing in girls and then sending them out to recruit other girls — and efforts to get the girls in his orbit to become emancipated‚ giving him more access and control over them.

May they all rot in hell.” Tosca apologized for the post‚ writing‚ “I am deeply sorry for writing what I wrote‚ and for hurting many people with my words‚ and I am especially sorry to Israeli people that I broadly placed at fault for the war.” “I know that my words perpetuated harmful stereotypes‚” Tosca added. “I allowed my reaction to the violence in Israel and Palestine to take an inappropriate and offensive form‚ and I am taking proactive steps to learn how I can do better and be better.” WATCH: Inside The Israeli Kibbutz Where Dozens Were Murdered By Hamas A petition created in October by an SAIC alumnus calling for Tosca’s dismissal received over 2‚400 signatures.

I do not love violence but what is expected?” Tosca’s Instagram account describes Tosca as a “radically optimistic transsexual climate scientist.” VIDEO: Inside The Day-Long Terrorist Siege On Israel’s Sderot Police Station Tosca previously worked at NASA’s renowned Jet Propulsion Laboratory before switching to SAIC. Tosca explained the 2017 career move as a way of helping scientists better communicate. “I think artists and designers and other creatives have a really special and unique way of imagining and interpreting and analyzing our world in a way that scientists don’t always do‚” Tosca told Chicago’s PBS station. “I wanted to think about new ways‚ or perhaps more effective ways‚ of ultimately getting the general public to buy into the science but also the solutions to climate change.” Tosca did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

A leaked list of donors to Media Matters reveals that the self-proclaimed “media watchdog” is funded by some of America’s largest Democratic donors. Media Matters‚ which is not required to disclose its donors due to its designation as a charity‚ appears to have accidentally identified five of its largest donors in a filing with the New Mexico Attorney General‚ the Washington Free Beacon first reported. Deborah Simon‚ the daughter of the founder of one of America’s largest shopping mall companies‚ donated $4 million to Media Matters. Simon pledged to “do anything” to beat Trump in 2020 and has given tens of millions of dollars to Democrat candidates and causes‚ winning her a spot in the top 50 political donors of the 2022 midterm cycle. The Gill Foundation‚ the private foundation of LGBT activist Tim Gill‚ furnished Media Matters with just under $3 million. Gill is a pioneer of the use of “dark money” in politics‚ helping to flip the Colorado state legislature in 2004 with his Colorado Democracy Alliance‚ which he co founded with fellow Democrat donor Patricia Stryker. Another $1.75 million came from Bain Capital co-chairman Joshua Bekenstein and his wife‚ Anita. The couple has given millions of dollars to Democratic causes and were also in the top 50 political donors in the 2022 midterms. Media Matters received another $1.9 million from the Stephen Silberstein Foundation‚ a leftwing organization that has funded other progressive organizations‚ including the Center for American Progress‚ Amnesty International‚ and People for the American Way‚ among others. Media Matters raised a total of $16.5 million in 2022‚ and organization executives enjoyed huge salaries‚ with president Angelo Carusone collecting a whopping $406‚000 and founder David Brock receiving $270‚000 as well as a $189‚000 payment from a deferred compensation plan. But while Media Matters is funded by Democrat mega donors and organizes advertiser boycotts against conservatives‚ it is portrayed as an objective media watchdog by some news outlets have referred to the organization as a “media watchdog‚” neglecting to mention its partisan ties. Media Matters is currently facing investigations from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey. The organization was also hit with a lawsuit from X‚ formerly known as Twitter‚ alleging that Media Matters sought to “portray X’s social networking platform as being dominated by “white nationalist and anti-Semitic conspiracy theories” in order to “drive advertisers from the platform and destroy X Corp.”

A trans-identifying man running for the Ohio state House of Representatives has been disqualified for not disclosing his birth name‚ often referred to by trans-identifying people as their “dead name.” Vanessa Joy was told by election officials that he was not eligible to run as a Democrat for Ohio House District 50‚ even though he had collected enough signatures to do so‚ because he had violated a little-known 1995 Ohio law requiring candidates for public office to disclose any name changes over the last five years on their signature petitions. The law does not apply to marriage name changes‚ according to The Hill. Joy has legally changed his name‚ including on his birth certificate in 2022‚ and said he had been unaware of the law. “I would have had to have my dead name on my petitions‚” Joy told News 5 Cleveland. “But in the trans community‚ our dead names are dead; there’s a reason it’s dead — that is a dead person who is gone and buried.” Joy had planned to run in a heavily Republican district just south of Akron against GOP candidate Matthew Kishman. Joy said the law would “undoubtedly” prevent trans-identifying people from running for office in the future. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP “If I had known that I had to put my dead name on my petitions‚ I personally would have because being elected was important to me‚” Joy said. “But for many it would be a barrier to entry because they would not want their names on the petitions.” The name requirement also does not appear in the secretary of state’s 2024 candidate guide‚ The Hill noted. Last week‚ Governor Mike DeWine (R) vetoed a House bill that would ban children from obtaining transgender medical interventions‚ including puberty blockers‚ cross-sex hormones‚ and gender surgeries as well as bar trans-identifying students from competing on the sports teams of the opposite sex. Ohio House Majority Leader Bill Seitz’s (R) office told The Hill that they expect to have the votes to override the governor’s veto on Wednesday‚ which is when a vote on the issue is expected. Joy’s stepfather‚ Bill Roemer‚ is a member of the Ohio House and voted in favor of the bill. Joy has expressed a desire to fight back against Roemer and other Republicans. At least three other trans-identifying candidates have entered Ohio state House races. It is not clear yet whether they too will be disqualified. The primary for the state House race is on March 19.
