“There was no integrity in that room today, it seems like, when it came to Epstein and Maxwell,” Teresa Helm said after Wednesday’s House Judiciary Committee hearing.

Six survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse and two members of another accuser’s family said they felt “degraded” during Wednesday’s contentious House Judiciary Committee hearing, at which Attorney General Pam Bondi refused to face them and apologize.

Several Epstein survivors and relatives were on Capitol Hill, where lawmakers grilled Bondi for over five hours about several matters, including the Justice Department’s handling of the Epstein case. She was specifically questioned about why released files were heavily redacted and why several survivors’ names were not.

“There was such a lack of empathy today. There was such a lack of, honestly, humanity today,” Dani Bensky said on NBC’s “Hallie Jackson NOW.”

    Anyone who fucks up which most of the lower functioning ones with NPD get tested as well. It not a choice between the military and some other large sampling. Its the only place where its done at all other than in the field of psychology. which is a lot fewer people and well most of the time people in that field are victims of the subject matter we are discussing.

    I know this because I have spent hours and hours reading and search for information on it and nothing you say will change it. I sure am getting a lot of push back about it here three ‘people’ trying tell me I’m wrong is kinda telling in and of itself. No argument you make changes anything.

      I was a member of the US military. I never got any form of psych eval, and neither did anyone I knew, except for people who had a Top Secret clearance.

      So your hours of reading are just wrong, or you didn’t understand something. It happens.

      So yeah, the people who were likely to get a psych eval were the people most likely to need one. And that creates selection bias.
