Wrote one investigator to another on January 7th, 2020, when the DOJ was very much under the control of Trump and Bill Barr and prosectors were developing the sex trafficking case against Ghislaine Maxwell: “For your situational awareness, wanted to let you know that the flight records we received yesterday reflect that Donald Trump traveled on Epstein’s private jet many more times than previously has been reported (or that we were aware), including during the period we would expect to charge in a Maxwell case. In particular, he is listed as a passenger on at least eight flights between 1993 and 1996, including at least four flights on which Maxwell was also present. He is listed as having traveled with, among others and at various times, Marla Maples, his daughter Tiffany, and his son Eric. On one flight in 1993, he and Epstein are the only two listed passengers; on another, the only three passengers are Epstein, Trump, and then-20-year-old [REDACTED] On two other flights, two of the passengers, respectively, were women who would be possible witnesses in a Maxwell case. We’ve just finished reviewing the full records (more than 100 pages of very small script) and didn’t want any of this to be a surprise down the road.” Not a good look.

Possibly a worse look:

On one hand yeah, this was in the run-up to the 2020 election. But correlation != causation works both ways, and this was while Ghislaine was under indictment. It’s also pretty specific and detailed in a way that at the very least suggests a sophisticated op with solid script writing.
