A growing number of Los Angeles-area politicians are calling on Olympics chief Casey Wasserman to step down after recently released files included a series of flirty emails between him and convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell from 2003.

    Because they redacted or didn’t release all of the actual rapey files, these guys can just pretend they texted with the guy or whatever, and make it sound like it wasn’t as bad as it looks, when in fact it was worse because they were fucking kids with him in the parts of the files that weren’t released.

    These files need to be leaked to a consortium of news organizations. Any justice department official with a terminal disease, or otherwise feeling martyrly, or that don’t mind immediately retiring to Cuba, we could really use the help.

    But the number of people with access is limited I’m sure, especially with full access.

    Let’s just kick the Olympics out of the US if we’re going to try un-Epsteining the whole shebang. Good luck finding a wealthy country that’s ‘clean’, though.
