Thank you, Azza, for this terrific article. You are trying to set the records straight, but basically fighting against windmills, just like the victims of Epstein/Maxwell and so many others, who have yet to be named.

Until the male perpetrators in this almost never-ending mess get outed and publicly shamed - and until more women get more actual power, I'm afraid nothing is going to change.

I find these Azza Cohen articles fascinating. It's stunning how much I've missed over the years, but this is helping me think about framing.

What I want to know is, Who took all these pictures, and why? Whoever the photographers were, they must know a lot more than what has been made public.

It's an interesting perspective. And I have no idea how much the media choosing each image is TRYING to bias their audience or not.

But for me... I don't need the pictures at all. I just need to know if these CHILDREN, now adults, are telling the truth. And if they are, I would like to see the criminals go to jail.

Twenty plus years of really flawed "investigations" and a complete lack of follow through on the part of the DOJ in any form surely makes me wonder what they are covering up and why. It makes it easy to believe the women claiming to be victims and no photo of Trump getting on to Air Force One will change the way he has shown himself to be a philandering womanizer, a cheat, a fraud and an habitual liar. Taking it a step further to believe he's also a pedophile is easy to believe. But a photograph isn't going to influence me much in either direction.

I thought perhaps the “other pictures” of the president and his harem are a fairer portrayal than him entering a jet. Makes you wonder how self censorship affects everyone

The AI-generated descriptions that I see when I hover my mouse over the photos is pretty bizarre. The last one says "Several images of a person doing CPR."

I disable everything AI on my computer. Just say no.
