From Wiki - The Later 727’s only had a range of 2700 miles. Transatlantic possible but from a short google, would need many modifications.
American Financier Jeffrey Epstein owned a private 727 nicknamed the “Lolita Express”.
I saw the Pelosi article as well. The one thing that concerned me that I read was that on several of the Clinton trips with Epstein, he would ditch his secret service coverage for those specific trips. Hmmmm.
What’s driving me crazy about this case is that I feel that the more of a political football it becomes - and that’s only going to continue to increase - the LESS likely it is that the scumbag is going to be dealt with properly by the court. I’m not a lawyer but I have the intuitive feeling that the more media attention his trial receives, the more likely it is that there will be a mistrial or some other failure of the justice system.
Good article, thanks.
I know that a lot of these mathematical types have come up with algorithms and/or computer models that have made them very successful traders. And a lot of them are rich and it’s legit. But it’s hard to get Epstein rich doing that. Because you can’t really put massive sums into these intricate trades. It’s like betting at the track— you might bet a couple of hundred on the long shot and make a good return. But if you tried to bet 100K on the longshot, it wouldn’t be the long shot anymore. It’s amazing how blinding money and success can be.
And #QANON is twittering tonight. Because ITS HAPPENING. THE STORM IS HERE. The pizzagate pedophile ring is coming down. Mass imprisonments at Guantanamo are coming soon. They were right! They told us so! The Trump connection is strangely missing from their narrative.
And Acosta is pretending that there’s all this new evidence, and the reason Acosta let him off easy before
Was a lack of evidence. Liar. Spineless wimp.

In further fairness, not having completed a college degree does not automatically make someone “unqualified” to teach high school. I myself had an excellent high school English teacher who was a twentyish English major taking a year off from college.
Ideally this should be non-political. People tied into Epstein’s behavior are republicans, democrats and non-political people both domestic and foreign.
But sadly because high ranking people on both parties are tied into it, that creates an incentive to bury what happened and not investigate. The same way Obama said ‘we have to look forward, not backwards’ about the torture program under Bush because a true investigation would implicate high ranking people in both parties (some of the torture program started under Clinton & Gore for example). It sucks. I hope the SDNY does the right thing, and I sincerely hope NY state functions as a backup in case the SDNY case is interfered with by Barr & Trump.
Wow, a Republican this or that. You must be Soooo proud of yourself. Maybe list all of the Democrats doing the same thing so we can decide which group is more corrupt. Or not, your stuck backing Hillary who supported Bill and shafted Bernie. Bonus question, what is the Clinton Global Initiative doing nowadays? Did they fix Haiti with Billions donated to them?
Starr obtained from Attorney General Janet Reno permission to investigate the matter.
Wait! What the hell? She should have recused herself. What corrupt double-dealing. Anyone here that’s a Democrat appalled by this? Hillary was up to her eyeballs in bimbo eruptions. And you want to smear Trump. Sad, little people aren’t you. Carry on with your self-righteousness because, that’s all you got except for projection.
Don’t you mean “Billary?”
Yo, Jeff, you might just maybe want to consider a tad looking at a reliable source for your information. Lunatic blogs don’t count as such.
There’s about 2 dozen democrats running for President right now and none of them are named Clinton. Do try to keep up.

He only knows what his Russian handler(s) tell him.
This was one of the most most prestigious private schools in NYC. He may have done a great job, but I think most of his colleagues were older than 20 and had college degrees.
Somehow even crazier is that his foot in the door at Bear Stearns is that one of his high school student’s parents was an exec at Bear Stearns. That seems crazy to me.
“My math teacher is sooo smart.”
“Give me his contact info. I’ve got a job for him.”
It is almost certain that the Democrats are hypcritical when it comes to Clinton vs. Trump.
Is the right answer to that to somehow hypocritically blame the Democrats for electing Donald “Stupid Clinton” Trump into the office? Or, is to be out on the front trying to get con artists, creeps, and crooks out of politics, party affiliation be damned? I would submit the first option is not a real option and you don’t come out looking none too bright by attempting it.

Not that crazy. It’s actually somewhat common for college kids to get teaching jobs at prestigious private schools, especially if they are alumni. I was taught by a few at my (not that prestigious) prep school.
There are no credential requirements to teach at a private school, so often it’s a case of “hey, remember that kid from a couple years ago who aced AP calc? He’s looking for a job while he takes a year off school.” “OK, sounds good.”
Epstein didn’t go to Dalton, but he would have easily been associated with plenty of Dalton alums at Cooper Union. I don’t find it difficult to believe that one of them would have mentioned to his parents that his math-whiz pal was looking for work and it turned out a teaching position was available.
Saw this item today. Deja vu with the whataboutism regarding Bill Clinton as a deflection. The article is about the reactions to Trump’s Hollywood Access pussy-grabbing comments:
‘Mother Is Not Going to Like This’: The 48 Hours That Almost Brought Down Trump
The exclusive story of how Trump survived the Access Hollywood tape.
So let’s point out how bad Bill Clinton is in written and video statements. The “Bill Clinton has actually abused women and Hillary has bullied, attacked, shamed, and intimidated his victims” is especially rich coming from Trump. Trump is all about projection of his traits onto others.
I think Lance Turbo is talking about his next job: how does one leverage a teaching job into a position at Bear Sterns?
Well, also not that crazy. Up until the late 90s most investment banks didn’t require a college degree to get your foot in the door of the trading desk. If you were “good with numbers” and could make a good impression you could get into a training program and then it’s sink or swim. Make money for the firm, get a permanent position; lose money, GTFO and make way for the next batch of hopefuls.
