Is one of those the owner of the Lolita Express that Bill flew on more than once?
I think that’s Epstein. He has some kind of private island with an Egyptian temple or some such.

Yes, it was Epstein. Also Trump has flown with him, so I don't think anyone is much motivated to pull on that particular thread.

Everyone thought"consent" paperwork was insane 10 years ago. Now that insanity is almost required, if you're a man with anything to lose.

Rumors linking the NXIVM cult to murders and cover ups.

IF true, I doubt it'll ever see the light of day. Remember, this is the cult whose party details I linked earlier in the thread that had Anthony Weiner and Hillary's aide in attendance.

Seems appropriate here...

5 years ago California passed a law requiring anyone working with children to get background checks via the FBI.

Hollywood has not been following this law.

I get that it should be illegal for.producers to trade sex for a woman getting a part.

Conversely, if that's illegal, then an actress who offers sex for a part should be immediately arrested for prostitution.

I'll disagree as I do not think prostitution should be illegal.

That being said, I'd say both are morally wrong, and if the law makes the first illegal, then the second should be as well (bribery?)

Hardwick got his job back, but several people quit upon his return.

His ex-girlfriend is also sticking by her story.

I'd like to ask them about what they know that the public doesn't. Perhaps they have inside information and Hardwick is a monster.

However, if they know just as much as anyone else, I'd love to know why they're willing to throw away a job based on one side of a story.
