“ The new Epstein book came to light through a circuitous and unusual path: A self-described "enigmatic rock chick" living in Manhattan's East Village found it on the sidewalk in the late 1990s and sold it on eBay a quarter-century later to a perennial Communist congressional candidate in Vermont.”
Okay…
I thought that was odd too…. I was thinking white hats since it implicates mostly MSM people and a few SC Judges.
Or since it can’t be traced further back than some rando claiming to have found a Book O’ Crime on the sidewalk full of information that could have been written by literally anyone with a bone to pick, and then conveniently forgotten until a politically convenient time, then we should probably be more suspicious.
The first step in any research plan is to verify your sources. If you can’t do that, then your research is always tainted by the notion that you’re being tricked by your source. I don’t see how this book, with the story provided, could possibly be verified.
Trust but Verify is an audit term that is exactly what your saying.
What is more interesting is who is listed in it. Why are those names included if it’s a fake…. What is this telling us?
My immediate thought is that those names were written by someone who didn’t like those names.
If someone found a book on the street, claiming it to be one of Epstein’s, and all the names in it you found were from Trump’s circle, would you consider it worthy of deeper investigation? Or would you rightfully laugh at the provided origin story of the book as well as the timing of its discovery and assume someone probably put this into the news cycle to fuck you?
Maybe it’s real, maybe it’s not. But there’s nothing provided here to suggest against the simplest explanation, which is that someone faked this thing to make people look bad. There’s no evidence so far that makes that a dumb theory.
Also, no, it’s not “trust but verify.” Verification takes time and effort, trust does not. It’s, “verify, THEN trust.”
