And if they do act on contempt charges and he's convicted, Trump will pardon him.

Given Black also has the proverbial "fuck you" money, I suspect Congress has heard all they're going to hear from that scumbag. I'm uncertain whether Black is a literal child molester (certainly possible), but there's not much question he's displayed predatory sexual behavior towards young women, repeatedly, and Epstein ran cover for him by disguising Black's payouts to them to keep them quiet

Of all the people "linked" to Epstein, I am the MOST positive about the literal, direct involvement of (thankfully DEAD) Jean Luc Brunel, closely followed by Leon Black, in Epstein's pattern of abuse of women and girls.
