Maybe the concierge reported Cohen to the FBI.

I am surprised Cohen found this too over the top.


Right?

I think because he has kids now. I’m glad it has brought him some degree of morality.

“But in the end the FBI decided not to pursue it.”

Yeah. I bet. They might uncover some “friendly faces”. Besides, they don’t worry about the pedo rings ongoing in DC pizza joints, so why should they worry about what goes on in Vegas?

You make a very good point. Perhaps Cohen was setting up the FBI as he had set up so many others in the past.

Perhaps FBI officials didn’t want to give this clown the time of day considering who he is.

This is certainly possible. The whole this is America line is something I would expect of a man struggling to hide his disgust.

That said he had the phone number of a lawyer on hand to deal with disgusting people doing disgusting things.

I’m not so sure all of “Pizzagate” is false.

And I do believe the nuttier stories about Orgy Island.

Corrupt from top to bottom. Probably didn’t want to arrest their bosses.

I have wondered if the Liberal’s love affair with Islam is because of the child sex thing. I have this horrible feeling that the problem is greater than we can imagine.

Just look at what's going on in UK

A schoolgirl fell pregnant six times in four years during Britain's worst child abuse scandal which affected up to 1,000 girls for 40 years.

An investigation by the Sunday Mirror exposed the horror - as sex gangs targeted girls as young as 11 who were lured from their families to be drugged, beaten and raped in an epidemic that victims believe is still ongoing.

Three people were murdered and two others died in tragedies linked to the scandal, with children suffering at the merciless hands of perverts and torturers in Telford since the 1980s.

One schoolgirl was pregnant six times in four years after being targeted by abusers in 2004.

“We immediately turned the footage over to the FBI, because we thought ‘maybe there is a pedophile ring operating in Las Vegas’...but the FBI decided not to pursue it.”

I’ll bet they did! Even knowing about such stuff, much less poking around into it, could be dangerous to your health. The hypothetical perps would have every thing to lose if even the accusations came out, so murder of all the investigators, witnesses and victims would be as nothing to them.

"...but in the end, the FBI decided not to pursue it."

You know what?

It sounds like the politicized FBI *DID* look into it, found some big, powerful names, and for THAT reason then dropped it.

It sounds like they WANTED to not pursue it.

Perhaps if Sasha would have tossed out a few prominent Republican's names while he was asking for underage sex?

“We immediately turned over the footage to the FBI because we thought, perhaps there’s a pedophile ring in Las Vegas that’s operating for these very wealthy men,” Cohen continued. “And this concierge had said that he’d worked for politicians and various billionaires. But in the end the FBI decided not to pursue it.” The interview was ultimately cut from “Who Is America?” because, as Cohen said, “it was too dark and wrong…it was too unsettling for the audience.” The comedian recently revealed the show would not be returning for a second season.

Always a possibility, and one I, and probably most of us, would rather believe than think fellow human beings could be as evil as they would have to be for the reverse to be true.

But WWII, even if no more recent events, taught us that, yes, sometimes people are that vile, and many who should say or do something will just turn their eyes away.

I believe the problem IS much greater than I’d ever imagined. That said, the reason lefties love Islam is because it is anti-Judeo-Christian. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, nothing more.

At the core of their behavior is to undo the Christian ethics that have been woven into our culture over millennia. Without Christianity this country would not have formed as it has. Every agenda the left has is to undo it all; marriage, free speech, freedom of religion, etc.. At the center of the target is Christianity itself, to distort the Bible and turn it inside out. That is true evil and it is everywhere today.

They don’t even see that the only thing standing between them and death-by-Islam are Christians. They’re blinded by pure hatred.

So it was prevented from airing because it would burst normal Americans impressions of their elites

Good gosh what has happened to the FBI?

You have to ask?

Comey was probably the lawyer who "Gio" was told to contact...
