Epstein-itis

"If you tolerate the intolerable, you’re communicating that it’s okay to mistreat you." —Aimee Terese on X.

Did you think the American zeitgeist — our collective spirit plus our thinking — could not get crazier? Gird your loins. It’s getting worse by the hour. The Jeffrey Epstein files suggest that people will do anything and that people will believe anything. Pizza, hot dogs, white sharks. . . boys, girls, babies, teens, Russian ---res. . . celebrities by the score. . . billionaires. . . cannibal orgies. . . vivisection parlors. . . adrenochrome. . . blood. . . dead bodies. . . demon worship. . . a depraved and insane global leadership. . . lemme outa here!

I don’t know what’s real in Epstein and what’s not — but neither do you. What you ought to know is that the colossal inventory of Epstein files is perhaps the greatest instrument of mass mind-----ery ever seen in the history of Western Civ. How interesting, too, that the deluge of material coincides exactly with the critical capability emergence of Artificial Intelligence as a tool for the manipulation of documentary evidence. And also consider all the years since 2019 that interested parties have had to mess with, destroy, possibly fabricate, and catalog all this stuff.

Apparently, the Woke-Jacobin-Marxist eruption was not enough to destabilize the consensus about reality. The absurdities you were asked to swallow about all-women-are-women-including-men. . . the police killed George Floyd. . . mostly peaceful riots. . . the vaccine is safe and effective. . . the free-est, fairest elections ever. . . “Joe Biden” is president. . . the border is secure. . . speaking English is white supremacy — did not push America deeply enough into Crazyland. More was required to completely demolish your sense of an ordered world.

Donald Trump was correct, at least, that releasing the Epstein files would bring on more chaos than clarity and impede the effort to get our country back on the rails with an economic engine based on the production of goods instead of financialized hyper-casino voodoo. Well, now we’re in a maelstrom of innuendo, code-talk, gossip, and redaction, and you can hardly begin to sort it out. The Attorney General of the USA, bless her heart, has already botched the management of this monster.

Epstein’s relations with Israel and its Mossad intel blob, along with his connections to global banking interests, have aroused the zestiest breakout of antipathy to Jews since the SS busied itself loading the crematoriums of Europe. Hatred of Jews is a recurring symptom of civilization distress. But it is also possible that Israel has behaved badly — and it is certain that many political intellectuals are reevaluating the way that nation was established after World War Two. To some degree, Israel has become a paranoid state (though even paranoiacs have real enemies).

Where does that go from here? Thoughtful people are pessimistic. For sure, they resent the money and influence seeded by Israel in the US Congress. They might be concerned as well about all the other interests pounding money into American politics. Grift is everywhere, and everyone can see it now. The looming end of the grift orgy is probably behind the Democratic Party’s current psychotic disposition. Having lost its 20th century base of factory workers, the party has had to work the extreme margins of American life to build a coalition of the feckless, the reckless, the brainless, and the shameless. They have become the party’s wards in a reimagined patronage system even more pernicious than the old one under characters like Boss Tweed and Mayor Richard Daley-the-First of Chicago.

The Democratic Party can’t win elections without rigging them and it’s astonishing that they’ve gotten away with building such sturdy armature of ballot fraud in plain sight with next to zero objection from the supposed guardians in officialdom. The features of it are so arrant that a political class with any sense or dignity would have laughed it straight into the criminal courts — and its perps straight into the penitentiary. The fraud became especially acute with the 2020 and 2022 elections. It is about to be revealed in the troves of evidence extracted lately from Fulton County, GA, and presently from Maricopa County, AZ. These birds are cooked. Not a few people will eventually go to jail over these shenanigans. And meanwhile, the SAVE Act pulsates in the Senate like a lump of kryptonite.

Now, you may realize that a political party based entirely on socially marginal persons — many of them mentally ill — will adopt a roster of ideas and policies that are patently marginal, which is to say, crazy. The party elders are now straining to eliminate some of that. Last week, Barack Obama unloaded on California Governor Gavin Newsom’s botched handling of the state’s epic homeless crisis. “We should recognize that the average person doesn’t want to have to navigate around a tent city in the middle of downtown,” the ex-president said in an interview with progressive YouTuber Brian Tyler Cohen.

Hillary Clinton, dropping in on the Munich Security Conference, said, amazingly, “There is a legitimate reason to have a debate about things like migration. It went too far, it’s been disruptive and destabilizing. . .” before tossing in some Woke word-salad: “. . . and it needs to be fixed in a humane way with secure borders that don’t torture and kill people and how we’re going to have a strong family structure because it is at the base of civilization.” Say, what. . . ?

But then, poor Hillary, who can’t help being a Cluster-B psycho, turned up moderating a panel at the same Munich meet-up to take up the issue: “Girls Just Want to Have Fundamental Rights: Fighting the Global Pushback.“ To nail down her point, Hillary brought onstage as the featured speaker, Rep. Sarah McBride (D-DE), known previously as Tim McBride, a man. The insanity is, of course, self-evident. The take-away from all this. They’re not trying hard enough to get their minds right.

And in the meantime, America and the other nations of Western Civ, must contend with the gigantic trip laid on them that is the Epstein files. We know the newspapers and cable news channels are hopeless. Is there anyone or any sense-making institution that can usher us through this nightmare back into the daylight?

“””Maxwell was indicted but Jean-Luc Brunel, Les Wexner, Darren Indyke, Richard Kahn, and Lesley Groff, all of whom were involved in the child trafficking networks, were not indicted. Jean-Luc Brunel was a model scout and child trafficker who, like Epstein, reportedly committed suicide while in jail. Les Wexner is a RINO who supported Mitt Romney and Jeb Bush. Darren Indyke is an attorney who reportedly laundered Epstein’s financial activities.”””””

So why didn’t the Biden/Otto Penn people arrest them? Nothing you can do to them now.

These parties were reportedly considered for indictment following the Epstein and Maxwell arrests. At that time, Bill Barr was Attorney General and Chris Wray was FBI Director. President Trump appointed these men although he was likely hamstringed in his selection by Mitch McConnell. But in the end, we have a bipartisan coverup.

Why didn’t the democrats arrest anyone? Probably because they have been too busy trying to put Trump in prison.

President Trump is the only one who tried to nail people for this.

I don't think Trump is the problem, but the RINOs, compromisers, and comprised within the Republican Party are, as much as the Democrats. The Democrats are more culpable than the Republicans by and large, so of course they didn't do anything. The first Epstein arrest in 2006 and his sweetheart plea deal occurred under the younger Bush Administration. The U.S. Attorney who set up the plea deal, Alexander Acosta, went into the private sector but became the first Trump Administration as Secretary of Labor. He left that office in 2019 following the second Epstein arrest. Acosta is currently on the board of directors of Newsmax, the conservative broadcaster.

The limited hangout of Epstein and Maxwell is like a refrigerator ice cube compared to the iceberg that sank the Titanic.

So why didn’t the democrats ever arrest anyone?

If there was any evidence of a crime it should have been prosecuted 20 years ago during the Obama Biden administration. Nothing can be done about it now.

Ridiculous. The latest revelations strongly infer in coded language that his operation included child sacrifice, cannibalism, and human hunting rituals. There is no statute of limitations on murder, and we’re just finding out his closest accomplices were never even interviewed, or his largest property in New Mexico ever searched. Let me guess, you’re opposed to all that, because Biden or something.

“””If there was any evidence of a crime it should have been prosecuted 20 years ago during the Obama Biden administration. Nothing can be done about it now.

Epstein has been dead for nearly seven years. Why didn’t the democrats investigate all this cannibalism you speak of?

The democrats did nothing. Instead, they blame AG Bondi for a coverup even though they had the same files for years.

You can tell me why the democrats never talked about any of this during the Biden /Otto Penn era when they had the files and could have arrested all these people.

I stated that in my prior response, in that the Democrats are more culpable than the Republicans in the Epstein prostitution, child trafficking, and even fouler, Satanic activities. That being said, the prosecutions of Epstein and Maxwell, whether by the George W. Bush or Trump Administrations, did not dig at all into their connections. While the Democrats are the main beneficiaries of Epstein's "services", the Republicans, including Pam Bondi and Kash Patel, have denied and attempted to distract the public with their claims that Epstein was only providing for his own perversity. And don't forget how good the stock market is and that Ukrainian woman killed by that black criminal on the Charlotte transit line.

Trump is not the problem. But Bondi and Patel in this term, and Barr, Sessions, and FBI Directors Wray and Comey in the first term have been and are. President Trump was in his first term and is in this term being subverted by people who want to cover up the depth of corruption in the financial, political, and cultural elites.

I don’t think the lack of investigation by Democrats in the past is an excuse for Republicans to not investigate child sacrifice and cannibalism of their bodies on a grand scale. But you do?

Shouldn’t we be more thankful they appear willing to, now? Isn’t the majority now behind it? Why are your own feet so cold? Or have they always been, on this matter?

“Not a few people will eventually go to jail over these shenanigans. And meanwhile, the SAVE Act pulsates in the Senate like a lump of kryptonite.”

I really doubt that.

When the most corrupt ones are those that are supposed to fight corruption, nothing much is going to happen.

Corruption has been institutionalized. Good luck eradicating that.

Do you have a particular conspiracy kook that you listen to every day?

Who put this idea of a satanic cult thing into your head?

If it happened at his place in New Mexico then certainly the State people can investigate all of it. Same with these “crimes” that apparently happened in so many states. Epstein was a New Yorker. Maybe get that Leticia James chick on the case.

Instead, you want to blame Director Patel and AG Bondi for everything.

The "Conspiracy kooks" have proven right more often than not, for example, the Russian collusion hoax, the 2020 election fraud, the COVID fraud, the January 6th "insurrection", etc. They have been far more accurate than the legacy media and the mainstream conservative sources like Fox and National Review.

Who put this idea of a satanic cult thing into your head?

Is the fact that Epstein nicknamed one of his financial accounts Baal meaningless? Numerous people have noted references to child sacrifices, hunting of humans, and other foul matters in the Epstein files. There is a lot to uncover in the files but given the Pizzagate and Franklin scandals of years past, I would not rule out Satanism. None of this is a joke.

May I suggest you re-read my posts.

If all this has been in the files for years, as you say, then why didn’t these rabid democrats do something about it when they were in charge?

Instead, the say AG Bondi is doing a coverup.

It fools the slow ones.

Democrats are guilty and are the most culpable for coverup but you must recognize the RINO and compromising and compromised faction of the GOP has a lesser degree of blame as well. That faction does not include Trump.

Why haven’t the State AG’s do anything all these years?

The latest conspiracy theory is Epstein had a place in New Mexico and apparently murders and burials took place. That’s a state issue. The State AG needs to stop the coverup and start arresting people.

Agreed that the supposed murders in New York, New Mexico, and the US Virgin Islands fall under state or territorial jurisdiction. Most of Epstein's associates and clients were Democrats. New York and New Mexico are one party, Democrat run states. New York City has lots of rivers and bays and swamps in the outlying areas that have been used as burial sites by organized crime for over a century. There is a lot of desert in New Mexico where a corpse can be buried and seven years later would be impossible to detect. You will need a Joe Valachi or a Whittaker Chambers literally to tell where the bodies are buried.

Interesting fact: a candidate for state comptroller in Texas, Don Huffines, a Republican who is campaigning as a pro-Trump conservative, acquired the Epstein ranch in New Mexico in 2023 with the intent of turning it into a Christian retreat.

why didn’t these rabid democrats do something about it when they were in charge?

Because, it's pretty clear that it was all Democrats who were involved with Epstein. Including several, who now claim to be Republicans. Go down the line of the names in there, Trump, Musk, Lutnick, etc, all former Democrats when they were involved with Epstein.

For some reason, you seem to think just because Democrats were protecting Democrats, that Republicans should tie their hands now. Why is that?

The state of New Mexico tried to investigate. The Feds claimed jurisdiction and forced them to stand down. Then did nothing.

https://spectator.org/new-mexico-launches-2-5-million-investigation-into-epsteins-zorro-ranch/

In 2019, shortly after Epstein’s arrest in New York, New Mexico’s Attorney General Hector Balderas opened a state-level inquiry into potential crimes connected to Zorro Ranch.

That effort was halted after federal prosecutors in Manhattan requested that New Mexico “cease any investigation into sex trafficking” and that they “would pass along any information [federal investigators] may have gathered about state crimes that were committed.”

Subsequent emails released by the Justice Department indicate that federal authorities ultimately had “not searched the New Mexico property.”

“””Because, it’s pretty clear that it was all Democrats who were involved with Epstein. Including several, who now claim to be Republicans. Go down the line of the names in there, Trump, Musk, Lutnick, etc, all former Democrats when they were involved with Epstein.””””””””””

Whoopi Goldberg is in there, too. Just like Trump, Epstein mingled with everyone.

A name in the files means nothing.

Trump arrested Epstein and Maxwell. Who have the democrats arrested during the 20 years this went on? Maybe you could break it down by pResdient. Obammy 2009-2017 Biden Otto Penn 2021-2025. Why haven’t any of the State AG’s arrested anyone since most of this consists of state crimes?
