Three days. Thats how long it took for the Bari Weiss era at CBS News to go from dumpster fire to raging inferno.
-snip-
Now, Bari Weiss has an Epstein problem.
Last Fridays long delayed release of a second tranche of Epstein files revealed uncomfortable ties both close to home and in the workplace for Weiss. Her wife and business partner, Nellie Bowles, shows up in the Epstein Files setting up a meeting with the registered sex offender and engaging in witty banter including about introducing her parents to her new girlfriend, presumably Weiss. Also in the newly released files is Weisss new wellness contributor at CBS, Peter Attia.
Attia doesnt just show up in the files. He ranks as one of the top communicators with Epstein. In fact, the DOJs Epstein Library contains nearly 2,000 communications with notorious pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and Epsteins staff between 2015 and 2019.

Typo, maybe?

(1,607 posts)The intent is to show Peter Attia is revealed by DOJ evidence to have communicated almost 2,000 times with either 1) Epstein himself, or 2) Epstein's staff.

Mission Accomplished.

(92,766 posts)In one email on Feb. 19, 2016, titled confirmed, Dr. Attia wrote to Mr. Epstein: Pussy is, indeed, low carb. Still awaiting results on gluten content, though. A couple of days earlier, he had offered his medical services to Mr. Epstein and asked, Have you decided if youre interested in living longer (solely for the ladies, of course)?
Some of the messages that have drawn the most attention are vague. Among the 1,700-plus documents is an email exchange dated June 24, 2015. Dr. Attia initiated it with an email to Mr. Epstein under the subject line got a fresh shipment; it is not clear what he was referring to. Mr. Epstein replied, me too, with a photo that is redacted in the released document. Dr. Attia responded, Please tell you found that picture on line bastard, to which Mr. Epstein said, fraid not.
Dr. Attia then wrote: You the biggest problem with becoming friends with you? The life you lead is so outrageous, and yet I cant tell a soul

(13,538 posts)Sounds like Attia may be referring to a fresh shipment of drugs, while Epstein of course means a fresh shipment of victims.
Most of the time I manage to forget there are people like this in the world. Horrifying.
