"If those numbers are their ages then they are likely her own grandchildren. I do not believe the children mentioned in this email were in any danger/pedophilic context. It looks like some family and friends get-together."

According to a 2003 National Institute of Justice report, 3 out of 4 adolescents who have been sexually assaulted were victimized by someone they knew well.

90 percent of child sexual abuse victims know the perpetrator in some way; 68 percent are abused by family members.

It is ignorant to assume/imply that children are not at risk of abuse for the sole reason that they are with a relative. It seems like you don't know very much about the topic on which you are speaking.

As for the sentence in the email, "Bonnie will be Uber Service to transport Ruby, Emerson, and Maeve Luzzatto (11, 9, and almost 7) so you’ll have some further entertainment, and they will be in that pool for sure."

The only detail mentioned in the sentence prior to, "so you’ll have some further entertainment" is that children will be transported to the event, so the only logical interpretation is that the children are meant to be the "further entertainment", and then it is followed by the assurance that the children would be in the pool.

This does not prove that the children were abused. It is simply suspicious given the relationship with Podesta due to details about Podesta and the details of some of his connections.

"This email does not look like a good lead to me anymore and we should be hesitant to use it as proof of Pizzagate."

This is a bit of a straw man statement. Nobody ought to be saying that any of the emails are "proof" of anything, but rather that the emails serve as strong evidence for reason to be suspicious, which is of course why the emails have lead to many investigating these people further. Everything should be presented together as an accumulation of supporting evidence, and then encourage people to decide for themselves.
