Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released a batch of 68 photos obtained from the estate of Jeffrey Epstein on Thursday, one day before the deadline for the Trump administration to release a much larger group of Epstein files.

The photos come from a trove of 95,000 images the committee received last week, the Democrats said. The release includes images of lines from the novel “Lolita” written on a person’s body; various travel documents; a screenshot of text messages about an 18-year-old from Russia and more. The photos can be accessed here.

The Democrats released several dozen photos last week, showing various high-profile figures including President Trump, former President Bill Clinton, Woody Allen, Gates and others. Neither batch of photos implicates any of those pictured in Epstein’s crimes.

    I can think of very few names already connected, pictured with or involved with Epstein whom I will feel any loss if they happen to suffer in the court of public opinion.

    The very worst people in the world are going to leverage the fact that not everyone named or implicated was actually doing anything with minors or hurting anyone, and I’ve lost whatever fuck I had to give a long time ago. Everyone who went there is a rich asshole in some way and this is consequence.

    And yeah, I am including the fucking scientists as well. Fuck Kraus, fuck Hawking’s memory. I am so done with the world being divided into classes of people who can get whatever they want, and people who die from preventable illnesses because they can’t afford health insurance.

    I wish my anger was as contagious as it is on the right, we would already be marching together to physically remove this fetid, evil administration.
