Epstein's Photo Album: The Only Public Record of Accountability?
A recent Bloomberg report highlights the release of more Jeffrey Epstein photos, meticulously cataloging the powerful men—Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Steve Bannon, Prince Andrew—who graced his various properties. The White House, predictably, is furious, calling the release 'cherry-picked' and an attempt to 'create a false narrative.' (One might wonder if the narrative isn't quite clear enough
already.) While the usual suspects squabble over 'optics' and dating, the real story isn't just who was there, but why their presence only comes to light through leaked photos and court documents, rather than, say, robust public scrutiny of powerful networks before they become international scandals. It appears the only time accountability gets a photoshoot is when a dead financier leaves behind a
literal album. How many other 'friends' of the powerful remain conveniently un-pictured until a document dump forces the issue, long after any meaningful justice could be served?
