Epstein list release predictions and followup

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

I've mostly been skipping the salacious headlines, but this one grabbed my attention. It was worth the click.

Trump worked to kill a story about his friendship with Epstein. Now we know why
Margaret Sullivan

The president is reportedly ‘on a warpath’ over a story in the Wall Street Journal – controlled by Trump’s top media ally


It's bad enough that Epstein had sex with underage girls, but now we learn that he's fucked at least one geriatric man with dementia. :twisted:
Lawrence O'Donnell is eviscerating DonOld tonight, 25 minutes worth and spot on.

I've got mixed opinion on "releasing the files." First, because it isn't really going to satisfy everybody ("how do we know that's all?" "why is that redacted?" "Trump/Dems cleaned it up" yada), but also because very few if any people are going to review the entirety of hundreds of thousands of documents, transcripts, etc. so all conclusions drawn and incorporated into the chatterverse will be excerpts not necessarily in context. Finally, the majority of people who encountered Epstein didn't have anything to do with underage girls or unlawful sleaziness. If it's not clear that their "names on the list" don't indicate guilt, then a lot of people will be trashed unnecessarily.

Nevertheless, there's a lot more to that story than just Epstein and Ghislane and a lot of people not being properly recognized for their sleaziness. So yeah, open the files.

There will be a lot more questions, possibilities and allegations than answers leading to more questions and allegations.

The only question really is is there a smoking gun? Probably not, but considering the star of the show is already a multi felon, multi adulterer, grifter and all around scumbag bring it on and bring the popcorn.

The American people and the world deserve to know what he really is.

I'm pretty sure the American people know what he really is. Tragically, about half don't care, while the other half and the rest of the world are mortified.

This article MAY be too optimistic in its conclusions, but it does a pretty good job of explaining how things could be different for Teflon Don this time.

The scandal that could finally end Trump

Fingers crossed.

Nothing illegal suggested here, but it may add to the creep factor for people who are now more receptive to it:

At least 50% do.

There's probably 25% that don't care and the other 25% are too lazy to pay real attention and need this SHOUTED in their collective faces to wake them up.

Trump-Epstein latest: FBI agents were told to 'flag' any files that mentioned the president, Sen. Durbin says, as an Epstein accuser recalls an encounter with both men
Pressure continues to mount on the administration to release more files.


Files flagged = Files purged?

How will DonOLD and bondage justify directing 1,000 FBI agents (!) to search the files for mention of DonOLD and only DonOLD? Sounds live a personal mission rather than crime-fighting government work.

What's odd is that there are some MAGAts in Congress calling for a complete investigation, like Josh Hawley.

Is this cover to depose DonOld while placating the base?

The women on The View think the RepuQs may be making it worse for themselves. They're now actively participating in the coverup and it's not like the RWers and others who care about sex with minors - sincere and wingnuts - are going to forget in 6 weeks. They'll be coming up with a plan, too.

I mean, she's already been tried and convicted. Wouldn't her crimes already have been unearthed to the fullest extent that they could've? What does the DOJ plan to do? Roll up to her cell and be like "Maxwell please tell us more" expecting her to respond "oh yeah I forgot about so and so".

The reason for them going to Maxwell is absolutely the headache that's arisen from the Grand Old Pedophile party and president grand master groper and his bestie Epstein. Surely they're trying to cut some type of deal with her?
On 29 December 2021, Maxwell was convicted by a jury in US federal court on five sex trafficking-related counts carrying a potential custodial sentence of up to 65 years' imprisonment: one of sex trafficking of a minor (maximum: 40 years), one of transporting a minor with the intent to engage in criminal sexual activity (10 years) and three of conspiracy to commit choate felonies (15 years total).[140]

Maxwell was acquitted on the charge of enticing a minor to travel to engage in illegal sex acts.[1][2][3] Maxwell's family said the appeal process had begun.[141][

During this time, Trump admitted that one of his favorite “perks” was walking into contestants’ dressing rooms unannounced, viewing girls potentially as young as 15 in various states of undress. In a 2005 interview with Howard Stern, Trump boasted
I’ll go backstage before a show, and everyone’s getting dressed and ready and everything else. …You know, no men are anywhere. And I’m allowed to go in because I’m the owner of the pageant. And therefore I’m inspecting it. …You know, they’re standing there with no clothes. “Is everybody okay?” And you see these incredible-looking women. And so I sort of get away with things like that.

She might be able to trade names and details for a sentence reduction or prison amenities. -0-?

Guessing there's a lot of unanswered and unproven allegations and innuendo in the files that couldn't be brought to trial that the public would demand answers. Something a prosecutor couldn't do.

The DonOld conundrum.

If trump were to pardon her she would have to testify in any hearing or inquiry from congress or law enforcement.

She couldn't hide behind the 5th for self incrimination as she's already convicted and cannot be re tried or sentenced.

I don't think even convicted sex offender DonOLD would pardon a convicted child sex trafficker.

Bondage is petitioning for release of the grand jury testimony. It's a typically shady win-win. If the judge denies the request TACO has someone to blame. If the judge approves the request it's all going to be oriented towards convictions and won't address suspected perps that weren't charged . . . like TACO?

Hey Jeffrey, Ivanka, Eric or both? :o :puke-left:
Here’s What Trump Told Howard Stern in 2006 When Asked About His Minimum Sexual Age Limit
The interview resurfaces days after a Wall Street Journal report on Trump's ties to Jeffrey Epstein


... “Do you think you could now be banging 24-year-olds,” Stern asked in the 2006 interview.

“Oh, absolutely,” Trump responded “I have no trouble.”

“Would you do it” Stern clarified.

“I have no problem,” the future president said.

Stern’s co-host Robin Quivers then asked, “do you have an age limit or would you…”

“If I- No, no, I have no age–. I mean, I have an age li…” Trump replied.

Then, when asked to provide his “upper bracket,” Trump said, “I don’t want to be like Congressman Foley, with, you know, 12-year-olds.”
So, 13-year-olds? :shock:
... However, he was ultimately never charged with any crime. Meanwhile, the minimum age to become a congressional page is 16. Foley was never accused of sending sexually explicit messages to anyone younger, contrary to Trump’s baseless claim in his interview with Stern....
LIAR and moron, as usual.

I am eagerly awaiting the gloating Q drop. It's been since Dec. 8, 2020.

Now we know, partly.
Florida judge denies DOJ request to unseal Epstein grand jury transcripts

... U.S. District Judge Robin Rosenberg concluded she was required to dismiss the department’s request because of longstanding grand jury secrecy rules that include only a few narrow exceptions — none of which she said the Justice Department met in this case.
Bondage knew that going in or should have known it?
... Despite the rejection in Florida, the Justice Department has another opportunity.

DOJ leaders have also asked two federal judges in New York, where prosecutors brought cases against Epstein and his co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell, to unseal grand jury transcripts. And New York’s federal courts have generally taken a less stringent approach to grand jury secrecy....
