Video: Opinion | Epstein and the #MeToo of It All
"All of a sudden, Jeffrey Epstein, like Banquo's ghost, comes back. These files weed their way through. Trump is hanging out with Mohammed bin Salman, doing a press conference in his golden, his golden Oval Office. And at the same time, these women are doing a press conference right outside of the Cannon building. And you have this ghost of a story that has come back once again."
"Sometimes conspiracies turn out to be true. It's just that instead of using obscure coded language of walnut sauce and pies, it's very directly, I'm trying to hook up with this hot lady. Jeffrey, what's your advice? Well, we are here to talk Epstein files. Molly, you just came back from D.C., where you were at a press conference of Epstein survivors on Tuesday. And we're taping this on Wednesday morning."
Survivors held a public press conference as newly surfaced Epstein files reentered public attention, coinciding with high-profile political events. The files brought renewed focus to networks of powerful figures and the ways secrecy and privilege shielded abusive behavior. The timing amplified political consequences, producing visible strain for leaders associated with Epstein and prompting legal and legislative actions. Calls for renewal emphasized the need for leaders unentangled from past power abuses. Uncertainty about the files' full contents left questions about scale and impact, while survivor testimony sustained momentum for accountability and systemic change.
