The two dogs that did not bark today [View all]
I assume we all are familiar with the Sherlock Holmes case solved by "the dog that did not bark." Sherlock wondered why the dog did not bark when and intruder committed a crime -- elementary, my Dear Watson -- because the intruder was the dog's owner, thus, the dog did not bark at the person he knew.
Tonight two dogs did not bark at information that is pouring out, little by little tying Trump directly to Jeffrey Epstein and little girls. And why are these dogs not barking? You decide.
The first dog that is not barking, as pointed out by Lawrence O'Donnell, is JD Vance. Lawrence reminded us that Gerald Ford sat silent as Nixon's crimes caught up with him because Ford knew he would be next in the Oval Office -- soon. JD is standing strangely silent as the Epstein files come pouring out of Congress.
The second dog that is not barking is Trump himself. Tonight as more and more Epstein emails are being released, Trump signed the bill ending the government shutdown. We would expect Trump to sign the bill then rave on and one about the great victory over the Democrats. Trump signed the bill, stood up, and left the room, ignoring the press.
Two dogs did not bark tonight -- because both of them know the truth -- and that truth will sink Trump.
