Well, well, well... web searches for 'Epstein Files' have significantly fallen over the ten days since the US & Israel launched their attack on Iran.
Of course, only a cynic would regard this as an intended outcome from the Tangerine Tyrant's willingness to go to war.... I mean why would anyone think that?

True: “Donald Trump lies constantly, and yet almost never gets confronted to his face about his obvious deceptions.”
Worthwhile watching his backdown when challenged. Wish more would challenge.

"NEVER MIND!"
“Trump had a lengthy conversation with Vladimir Putin yesterday. Afterwards, Trump couldn't run from the Iran war fast enough!"
- Aure
From the war is 'basically over' to 'we win when I say we win', Trump is obviously following Putin's orders when it comes to the US war in Iran.
Trump will also roll back sanctions on Russian oil to 'help' the global economy.

That story again: even parody Nobel committee recognizes how dangerous it is to travel to the USA these days. If your conference doesn't, your conference is less serious than parody Nobels. 🤡
