Photos released from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate include images showing Bill Clinton with Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and others.

One released photo shows a bowl of novelty condoms featuring a caricature of Trump with the phrase “I’m HUUUUGE!” and a sign reading “Trump condom $4.50.”

The image appears to be a joke.

I had a very good conversation this morning with the Prime Minister of Thailand, Anutin Charnvirakul, and the Prime Minister of Cambodia, Hun Manet, concerning the very unfortunate reawakening of their long-running War.

Turkish Foreign Ministry:

The damage sustained today (12 December) by a foreign-flagged vessel belonging to a Turkish company as a result of an attack on Ukraine’s Port of Chornomorsk points to the validity of the concerns we have previously placed on record regarding maritime security and freedom of navigation, as the ongoing war in our region spreads to the Black Sea domain.

According to the initial information received, the crew of the vessel and the truck drivers onboard are being evacuated, and no harm has come to our citizens as a result of the attack. Our Consulate General in Odesa is closely monitoring developments and providing the necessary support to our citizens.

On this occasion, we once again emphasize the importance of bringing the war between Russia and Ukraine to an end as soon as possible, and we recall the need for an arrangement aimed at preventing escalation in the Black Sea, including the suspension of attacks targeting freedom of navigation as well as the energy and port infrastructure of the parties.
