ENTERTAINMENT LAWYER 06/26

A Birdie Blind Item: Which first term US politician is apparently so important she can't wait five minutes for a pregnant federal judge with morning sickness to get out of the restroom to meet about sex trafficking of unaccompanied minors? I guess that lunch date with some of her celebrity donors was of greater concern than abused children. Not to be outdone, the judge's penultimate boss wants to have her removed from the bench for exposing the fact that many of the unaccompanied minors are not fleeing but have been sent, which is to say bought and paid for by wealthy men in LA, New York, and elsewhere. It's all been arranged through a multinational organization that's been in the news recently. Obviously, the boss wants to talk about the organization, as does his own. But identifying the kids as trafficking victims, rather than as members, is bad for the narrative.
