If his head was shaved, that’s a surgery related thing. Stroke, heart surgery? Hmm

Good guess from @kurtshriner.bsky.social “His head was shaved and his mouth is agape. Classic signs of a post-stroke surgery. He will take a few weeks to recover and we won’t hear him speak publicly for a while.”

Here's the response from Paul Bryant, the Black veteran and lawyer whom the govt arrested in part bc he had a legal weapon in DC, to USG attempt to get him detained. It leans heavily into the lack of Body Cam proving he shoulder checked some Guardsmen. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

And then they compare w/Jan6 release (earlier they cite Munchel, the precedent for those cases).

Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:
