Good Morning! We're having a bit of a weather event this morning. The doggos aren't really pleased and I am hoping things don't flood. I am pretty sure we have all heard about the arrest of Jeffery Epstein. It appears this time he might not be so lucky. He's expected in court this morning.
Something else seems to be bubbling up this morning. The Associated Press is reporting that a Federal Grand Jury is probing him.
This promises to be another interesting week. Let's get it rolling!

Something else seems to be bubbling up this morning. The Associated Press is reporting that a Federal Grand Jury is probing him.
A federal grand jury in New York is investigating top Republican fundraiser Elliott Broidy, examining whether he used his position as vice chair of President Donald Trump’s inaugural committee to drum up business deals with foreign leaders, according to documents obtained by The Associated Press and people familiar with the matter.
A wide-ranging subpoena the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Brooklyn recently sent to Trump’s inaugural committee seeks records relating to 20 individuals and businesses. All have connections to Broidy, his investment and defense contracting firms, and foreign officials he pursued deals with — including the current president of Angola and two politicians in Romania.
This promises to be another interesting week. Let's get it rolling!

This would appear more current that his indictment said:
Federal prosecutors just said that after investigators executed a search warrant at Jeffrey Epstein’s Manhattan mansion — you probably saw the photo of FBI/NYBD using a crowbar to open the massive front door — they found photos of naked underage girls inside. https://t.co/a64vELM5u0

Hearing rumors that Eric Swalwell will end his presidential bid & run for re-election to Congress instead.
Comment by Raine on 07/08/2019 18:51:16
He's got a primary challenger.
I am glad he's dropping out.
We have too many people at this point.

Say, have you ever heard the one where 
revoked an Executive Action from the Obama Adminstration, but that executive action never happened?
(Yes, I'm serious. I went through all 65 pages of the archive)
On a related note, I hope Gina Haspel has her resume polished.

I was honored to listen to her speak twice and met her once when I purchased some books by her. She shows that we can survive and forgive others, if only for our own sake. May her memory be for a blessing.

I had the "joy" of yard work here. If I am indeed in this area for my current job or one in the area, I will try to be out of my brother's house before December. (I do have several out of state applications.)

Question:
Has Jeffery Epstein ever been married?
His wiki page indicates: no.
