Epstein Files

Biden didn't make it a priority because there are as many Democrats as Republicans implicated. Release by either side would damage both sides.

I'm starting to think Trump campaigned on it to make the Dems look like they had something to hide whilst he felt confident he would be able to block release or mitigate the damage to him if he was in office and in control. Let's not pretend he didn't try to delay the release or limit how much was released. They have only been released now because "are we still talking about Epstein?" caused a lot of damage to the MAGA movement and his approval rating plummeted.

@HopSpringsEternal They've been heavily redacted for a number of reasons the most important of which is to protect victims who. Do you really think if something solid was actually known CNN, ABC or NBC would have kept quiet?. It's easy to go down these anti Trump rabbit holes but at some point you have to apply logic and reason not just spout out unproven allegations

I was wondering this too 🤔

I can't speak for everyone but I want everyone guilty, to be held to account.

But - Bill Clinton, Bill Gates etc - are not President of the United States. Do you see how that makes things a bit different? They're not a world leader liable to wreck the world, they're not making decisions that affect people around the world, they did not campaign to be President by using these files as a device to put them in power!

Trump did all that and much much more, and it is looking (from the files I have seen) very much like he wasn't simply participating but organising and in control of much of what happened, as much as Epstein was or maybe more!

Biden never campaigned on it. That was Trump. He promised "bombshells", then refused to release them.

why didn't the democrats release the Epstein files whe... (factually.co)

They've also been heavily redacted. Keeping Trump out of most of it. There probably was a load of Democrats incriminated too.

The pics of Andrew are hardly damning. It's really a stretch to be hauling him over the coals for so long.
I'm not saying these people pinnacle of morals and ethics but yeh...I think this is all so OTT

lol

The reason the files are now publicly available is because Trump signed off on the Epstein transparency act. If there's so much incriminating evidence about Trump do you not think Biden administration would have made it a priority to Pressure the DOJ to release the files?
If Trump didn't want the files out there they wouldn't be.

100%. It's why the files have been released now.

The DOJ removed some of the files they initially released yesterday but not before screenshots were obtained. It's pretty damning for Trump and a whole load of other people. Some questions need to be answered about why there hasn't been more prosecutions and the person who claimed there were no co-conspirators needs to explain themselves.

Kim Iversen read some of the allegations on her show. She seems like a credible non-partisan journalist. The video is about 20 mins.

TW there are some graphic descriptions (victims own words) of sexual abuse of minors.

There is no doubt that our supine media has failed to do its job in the past few years in so many instances and this is one of the darkest examples.

A nasty suspicious mind may well assume they are also involved. I mean there is no law of nature that says newspaper editors aren't massive sleazes. In fact I rather assumed it was an essential.

How many media folk are mentioned in these files ? Asking for a friend.

Maybe I am totally naive and I probably am, but I'm baffled that mega rich and connected men actually needed an intermediary to source girls. Surely with all their wealth and power they could do that without Epstein's web of procurement?

OK, is it that they liked group sex, or underrage sex was easier to get via Epstein (not buying that), or was it because they wanted to be "in with the IN crowd" ? Baffled, when you think of the possibility of blackmail and foreign governments possibly behind the procurer.

OK I am missing something, and probably hopelessly naive. But still....

It’s only just gone live! Even with the help of AI you’ve got to give the world’s news orgs some time to actually go through it all. Keep watching all weekend

I'm disgusted that they've released the names of some of the victims. According to their lawyers they're absolutely devastated. There also seems to be a lot of British men named but not many Americans for some reason - they deserve all they get but it seems to be very one sided.

Not according to the FT, The Telegraph and various other news sources

Exactly...but apparently that's fake news 🙄

Why do you go for Trump immediately? How about Bill Gates getting a STD from a Russian woman who was sex trafficked? Do you find that worthy of comment?

Fake news

There are also allegations against President Bush Snr. on X, and Jay-Z, Bill Gates and others, but they say they're not verified. I'm trying to avoid it on X because a lot of it so horrific that you can only hope it's not true. But then you wonder if that's why the victims kept quiet or weren't believed, it just seems too unbelievable. But what if it is true? What if a huge percentage of 'the elite' - politicians, celebrities, billionaires etc. are so seriously depraved that a blackmailer can easily coax them into horrific acts, worse than you'd find in a Stephen King novel. And the next day they're standing in front of a camera, smiling with their arms round their wife and children.

I am looking at their website and the headline/top story is about Andrew.

There are multiple reports about Richard Branson and Donald Trump.

Exactly this. All I've heard on our news is Andrew. Not to minimise his wrongdoing but we all know he's sleazy as hell. It just looks like a convenient distraction from the bigger more powerful names.

It’s the headlines on the independent.co.uk @Greenwitchart

I am shocked and disgusted at how little there is in the UK media about what came out yesterday while the files and comments about their content are all over social media platform like X and being widely shared and read by the general public.

They only seem to focus on Andrew who we already know is a vile individual but fail to mention the allegations about Trump, Bill Gates, Jay Z, Elon Musk and many more.

There is no doubt that our supine media has failed to do its job in the past few years in so many instances and this is one of the darkest examples.

Richard Branson asked Epstein to bring his harem next time he visited.
