I don't get why the MAGA media post this stuff and think it's a positive for RedTrump, or how anybody can read it and think he some sort of righteous clarion.

I read that paragraph and think, this heavily resourced and connected Kent new what was going or in a global paedophile ring back in 2006 and chose to do feck all about it!

I suspect that he was terrified that Epstein would spill the beans ... and still is, albeit posthumously.
I notice Maxwell used the 5th amendment during her interview with Comer et al.  Said she would only tell the full story if Trump offers her clemency.

How does that work....?   He lets her out of jail and she tells the whole story with some useful omissions? 

There must be something preventing a President from offering a pardon to a person who may hold incriminating evidence against said President?

Define 'running'.

As DJC just stated, Cottrell and Hollands are elite runners, and have been for years now. Maybe Binns' beat them in a race here or there, but at best he was on a par with them in that area (i disagree) but was behind in every other area IMO, hence the delisting.

Moving quickly on foot? 😇

Binns got a contract extension on the back of excellent VFL form … and I’ve defended that decision in the past.  Tearing that contract up was a major u-turn and I’d love to know what the thinking behind it was.

Perhaps the bake from Vossy in his 8th and final game is the key - although Binnsy reckons his delisting was unexpected.

2 wrongs dont make a right.
Original decision to extend was wrong.
Decision to sack early was right.

Cottrell and Hollands are elite aerobic runners, marathon athletes, but not the combination of pace and deep running that Binns is capable of, however both of them have Binns comfortably covered because when they get to the contest they compete, Binns tends to move / run to receive.

Too many similar types and he didn't have any tricks, disposal was average.

O. Hollands, L. Camporeale....even Cottrell play the same role and better.
Certainly, competing for the same roles, but Binns' running was well above the others.

Although I think his physicality was well below those he competed with, and that might not be acceptable for a coach with Voss' history!

Anyway, it's just another speculation, I think the real question is not why he was delisted, but why he wasn't picked up because his running is elite at any level.

The Miami Herald’s Julie K. Brown, probably the foremost reporter on the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, has revealed what Donald Trump told police all the way back in July of 2006, back when the first charges of sexual misconduct against Epstein became public knowledge.

Mr Trump told Palm Beach police commissioner Michael Reiter “everyone has known” about Epstein’s activities. He also called Epstein’s co-conspirator, Ghislaine Maxwell, “evil” and advised law enforcement to “focus on her”. He described her as Epstein’s “operative”.

Cottrell and Hollands, O are elite runners, they make better use of the pill when they get it, and they play better defence. 

I believe that Binnsy will be playing for Berwick in 2026 but he's also on Essendon's VFL list.  I think that supports our decision to tear up his contract.

Are you saying Bad Bunny should call for RedTrump to be deported as an invader, but then again weren't the Conquistadors invaders also? ;D

Taco's America's problem and it would be grossly unfair to impose him on any other country  :)

I was referencing the hypocrisy of Turning Back and their "All American" lip syncing show.  Bad Bunny is more "American" than any of the folk who "performed" there  ::)
