Earlier this month, the House Oversight Committee released a flotilla of Epstein emails—more than 20,000 in total. The revelations created a tidal wave of news. In perhaps the most famous email, Jeffrey Epstein claimed Trump ā€œknew about the girls.ā€ Epstein also called Trump ā€œthe dog that hasn’t barkedā€ and alleged that Trump had once spent ā€œhours at my houseā€ with a sex trafficking victim.

A trove of that size would ordinarily be difficult and time-consuming to sort, but this digital dump was especially cumbersome: packaged in oddly titled folders, and tossed with a random assortment of unsearchable detritus and system files.

What if you were able to just… read them like emails?

That’s the simple premise behind ā€œJmail,ā€ a re-skinning of the documents programmed to look and feel like an everyday Gmail account, with all the design details impeccably parodied and emails displayed in sequential chains, just like your own inbox. It even includes a working search function. Its release this week created it’s own internet storm.

    I spent a couple of hours reading these through jmail the other day. Some of the conversations were pretty interesting. The best that I found outside of the ones widely reported on were:

    1. A thread in which Michael Wolfe (sp?) and Epstein are discussing Epstein’s legal troubles and Trump’s involvement in it. Wolfe refers to Trump as ā€œthe real villainā€ in all of it.

    2. Epstein is talking to a woman with a redacted name trying to set up a meeting. He invites the woman to wait for him in his home and she replies something to the effect of, ā€œI would but I don’t want to show up and find Trump in your house againā€.

    3. Epstein is speaking with (I believe) a reporter for the NYT. Thomas Landon or something like that. They discuss Trump’s involvement with Epstein in broad terms and then the reporter asks Epstein, ā€œwhy don’t you do the country a favor and release what you have on Trumpā€ so that he presumably goes to prison.
