This is Part 2 of an Epstein emails Trawl deep dive. Once again, Marina and Jemma dive into the online storm surrounding newly unsealed Epstein-related documents and the political reactions that have set social media ablaze. From Megyn Kelly’s widely-shared comments to the way his most cultish followers are handling it, the Trawl ladies explore how the discourse spiralled, who said what, and why the internet collectively has lost its mind.
Jemma and Marina also look at the New York Times’ much-mocked headline, examine how different factions are spinning the story, and discuss what these reactions reveal about broader culture-war dynamics.
It’s a wild week online — chaotic, furious, meme-heavy — and The Trawl is wading through it so you don’t have to.
