CNN: What if there are more names connected to the Democratic Party that come out in the files? CHRIS MURPHY: So what?

37. The one thing that could kill any real good coming from the Epstein files

is how complex and octopus-armed the whole business was. There was the pedophilia trafficking (boys and girls, I'll bet). There was money laundering coming in and going out. It also sounds like he ran some sort of private air business where the mighty and those with money could fly on his jets, quickly getting where they needed to go. And gods help me, it also sounds like the evil basta$d was involved with some charities.

Sussing this all out is going to be nigh on impossible. It's also evident that "guilt by association" is probably a hell of a lot more nuanced than we've considered.

Clinton, for example, used the jet for flights on behalf of the Clinton Foundation. Okay... that's sounds legit, tho it may take some validation and verification.

But what got me really thinking about this was the news that Noam Chomsky also had some sort of association. After reading Chomsky all these years, I find it really hard to think of him as a pedophile, and more in line with using the jet as a privilege.

I'm sure we're going to find many more names with instances like this. But SO much emphasis has been put on the Epstein files only in relation to the pedophilia and sex trafficking (and of course, that IS the most heart wrenching and top priority where jail time is concerned) but with all that emphasis I'm afraid we hear a name and immediately file it under "sex trafficking"... I know we'll be shocked at some of the names that no doubt come up with a clear link to the Island or to other sex trafficking sites, but I'm afraid of the Epstein Files becoming this generation's McCarthy campaign... where *everybody* is guilty of sexual impropriety by association. And please... *don't* think I'm excusing or trying to normalize any of that... I'm NOT! I'm appalled at what was allowed to happen, with full knowledge of government officials, it looks like. Probably with some our own tax dollars thrown in, one way or another. And I hope every one of these women can find the justice they need to give them back a small sliver of peace. I'm just beginning to try to wrap my mind around how many pies this man had his fingers in... This one's going to take one hell of a flow chart or something to map out!
