Surely that’s a joke, @Spandauer? (I really do hope so.)

I'm sure it's not. One of our former MAGAt ex-friends would have seriously believed shit like that.

It’ll come up in a bit, but it’s loads of squiggly lines. No lightning flashes at all. Oh no, never. Nada. Niete. Zilch. Oh, damn.

Epstein case is closed. DOJ state he definitely committed suicide, and he had no client list! Anything else they have on him is inappropriate for disclosure.

Serpentstooth · 07/07/2025 08:11

Amongst other things, we're led to believe that Mr Epstein's apparently boundless wealth resulted from his work as a 'financial adviser' to his many clients burdened by the weight of managing their own vast collections of dosh. No client list? Nope. Kept it all in his head, of course. And someone please explain why a woman, Ms Maxwell, is the only person in jail for the assorted Epstein crimes? Complicit, of course, but bearing the whole responsibility for Epstein seems hardly fair.

MsJinks · 07/07/2025 08:28

Amazing - I missed how Epstein had earned his cash! think Maxwell’s lawyers should surely appeal now?
I bet there’s a large number of happy folk today. I also think that if Trump had had the opportunity to show some of the names floating about were accurate he’d have absolutely loved getting them out there - obviously can’t if his in on there. Potentially he could have been quietened, not so dramatically as Epstein (I know that’s a bit debatable in some people’s view) but I tend to think he just wanted it shut down for his own reasons.

Serpentstooth · 07/07/2025 10:16

Indeed. Many believe that Robert Maxwell, (father of Ghislaine, disgraced fraudster who helped himself to his employees pension fund amongst his many other crimes. Died without a penny to his name after falling or jumping from his yacht in the Med) hid his ill-gotten money with Epstein's help, thus accounting for the lengthy and peculiar relationship between GM and Epstein. But with "No client list" who knows?

also Robert Maxwells past is very opaque. It's entirely possible he was an SS officer during the war who managed to jump at the right time.

Private Eye often published tiny snippets, but he was a very very litigious individual. And tellingly had no sense of humour.

DuncinToffee · 07/07/2025 10:36

A post on bsky pointed out that if there is no client list, then who did G Maxwell traffic the girls for

Serpentstooth · 07/07/2025 10:53

Yes, murky past, dodgy present and notorious future in death. Don't forget the Mossad rumours. A truly terrible man, a monster. His poor wife and family. They all paid a high price for being Maxwells. Money being the least of it.

SerendipityJane · 07/07/2025 11:26

Incidentally, I know TAATs are a little bit rum, but for people who want a flashlight on how entrenched beliefs work, the "plonker" thread is a paradigm of lunacy.

Many posters - despite having the OED (and other dictionary) definitions shown to them insist that are all wrong. A mischievous poster could easily wade in and persuade some people that there was a conspiracy to redefine the word ...

Serpentstooth · 07/07/2025 11:40

I've just remembered, R Maxwell visited my workplace, late 80s? I think. Recollecting, he was a Trump-like figure. Same bombast, same self importance, same dubious charisma, same "I'm the only important person here" aura. Odd, how differently people can view the same thing. I found him repellent, anxious for him to be gone. A colleague, young attractive woman, early twenties, found him immensely attractive and would happily have snuggled up to him. 'What? No, what are you thinking? How could you?" A handsome man when younger, he was long past his best and going to seed. "It's the power. He can do anything, he can buy anything, it's very attractive". I was shocked. I still am.

DuncinToffee · 07/07/2025 17:46

So sad

I'd put more faith in the letters from my friendly Nigerian Prince.

Trump is posting his tariff "letters" to various countries on Truth Social, with Japan and South Korea posted so far. He also ends the letters with "thank you for your attention to this matter!"
