re: Congressman Ken Buck Calls for Congressional Hearings: Hollywood ‘Criminal’ Sex Misconduct

sure, congress MUST hold hearings on adults having consenting sex in exchange for something

I think the focus is not to be on adult, consensual, sexual behavior.

* I agree with the rest of your post.*

It's not like I've done any studies on it but it's fairly clear to me that the same innate traits that makes someone a top-level artist are traits that dramatically increase one's propensity for being a piece of shite.

Live next to a town of 4000...high % of the artsy folks as you mention. Your 4:1 ratio misses the mark by a factor of 100, at least here.

Congressional hearings are usually for illegal acts by Govt officials or agencies.

Hollywood should be handled by the FBI and DOJ. That's what they exist for

So why do we pay cops?

A literal cop out

Some pay everyone they need to/for:

-stay silent
-provide perverse incentives
-sexual predation
-rig elections

A list of people who have associated with Jeffrey Epstein over the years would take in the world of celebrity, science, politics - and royalty. Over the years, the casually-dressed, globe-trotting financier, who was said to log more than 600 flying hours a year, has been linked with Bill Clinton, Kevin Spacey, Chris Tucker and Manhattan-London society figure Ghislaine Maxwell, daughter of the late media titan Robert Maxwell.

On the evening of December 2nd, 2010, a handful of America's media and entertainment elite—including TV anchors Katie Couric and George Stephanopoulos, comedienne Chelsea Handler, and director Woody Allen—convened around the dinner table of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. It wasn't just any dining room, but part of a sprawling nine-story townhouse that once housed an entire preparatory school. And it wasn't just any sex offender, but an enigmatic billionaire who had once flown the likes of former President Bill Clinton and former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak around the world on his own Boeing 727. Last spring, Epstein completed a 13-month sentence for soliciting prostitution from a minor in Palm Beach. Now he was hosting a party for his close friend, Britain's Prince Andrew, fourth in line to the throne.

I remember Handler being very vocal after the election (and much of Hollywood including the silly attempt to subvert the electoral college...)

You know who else is a pal of Epstein? You always seem to leave that name out for some reason.
