"...Mr. Epstein flatly asserted that Mr. Trump 'knew about the girls,' many of whom were later found by investigators to have been underage. In another, Mr. Epstein pondered how to address questions from the news media about their relationship as Mr. Trump was becoming a national political figure."

This so snapped me back to when I tore through about 10 Vonnegut novels in about 3 weeks (and what a breadth among them). Which got me to thinking about who is the closest current equivalent, which led me to this, which supplied the answer
![< Vonnegut did not seem to be saying, as I
understood Hemlingway] to be saying,
that his Terrible Event had forever
exempted him from the usual human
obligations of being kind, attempting to
understand, behaving decently. On the
contrary, Vonnegut seemed to feel that
unkindness--a simple, idiotic failure of
belief in the human, by men and their
systems--had been the cause of his
Terrible Event, and that what he had
learned from this experience was not
the importance of being tough and hard
and untouchable, but the importance of
preserving the kindness in ourselves at
all costs.

My dad had a book like this that was specific to a 1978-1980 Rabbit and it was 3x as thick as this.
Took this about six years ago at a local garage. Seeing it now, I wonder just how much this tattered piece of VW history might be worth? Bet it’s a fascinating browse.

If Dems accept this deal, it will help the GOP cement the following ideas into the public conscience over the coming 4 weeks:
-Shutdown was Dems fault/responsibility
-They did it for nothing
-They caved to Trump
Having accepted responsibility, it will also cripple them in the follow up debate.

First, I will say this: never believe an Axios backed story with only a Thune test vote schedule.
That being said, for obvious reasons to anyone who sees my posts regularly, I don't think a deal is a good idea for Dems, but the rumored deal seems pretty poor even factoring in my priors against.

IMO there are two legitimate goals to non-cooperation (which would likely lead to shutdown):
-Demonstrate Dem opposition & non-complicity
-End filibuster
