Letting the Left divide MAGA with an Epstein info op may doom America. ..
The Trump administration has a limited legislative window to get anything done. Democrats have seized on the Epstein issue to sideline legislation and some House Republican leaders appear to be going along with it instead of staying laser-focused on passing as much of the president’s agenda as possible.
The Dems know a golden opportunity when they see one and everyone insisting on Epstein answers that are never going to come (certainly not out of Congress, of all places) are squandering a very narrow window for getting anything done.
House Republican leaders are now divided between calling for an early summer break or spending more time hashing out Epstein proposals. None of those are going to go anywhere. If you doubt that, consider the track record of House investigations that usually involve a lot of press releases and no actual action. What the House can do is work overtime to pass legislation instead of wasting time on distractions. And the more Epstein stuff there is, the more the Left gets what it wants...

It’s not an “info op” nor is it just about Epstein.
.......the more Epstein stuff there is out there........
..... the more the dissolute Left gets what it wants........
Instead of letting it get out of hand Speaker should have kept Congress in session to get out in FRONT of it. Then the pressure would have been on the Democrats, always the most eager to go home and goof off.
It got too out of hand. Speaker should have kept Congress in session to get out in FRONT of it.
Then pressure would have been on 14% approved Dems, always most eager to go home and goof off.
Hmmmmmmm.........possible.
Read about the huge amount of money Epstein was in control of.
He did not have a job we know of. Just a ‘financier’ yet no one is saying how he made money.
We know but no one in gov’t wants to say it.
Just some of the flow of money and the millions paid out to the teenage girls, now women.
To Discover the Truth About Epstein, Just Follow the Money
https://discernreport.com/to-discover-the-truth-about-epstein-just-follow-the-money/
The Trump administration has an Epstein file detailing 4,725 wire transfers and almost $1.1 billion flowing through just one of his banks. Hundreds of millions more through others.
The Oregon senator’s three-year-long investigation revealed a SAR on Epstein submitted in 2019 by JPMorgan for $1.1 billion, the Times reported.
The report included a total of 4,700 transactions dating back more than a decade, including payments to women from Belarus, Russia and Turkmenistan.
Wyden’s team found documents showing the next largest was by Deutsche Bank for about $400 million, followed by Bank of New York Mellon for $378 million and then Bank of America.
Eight of Epstein’s victims alleged that JPMorgan Chase and Deutsche Bank knew that Epstein and his powerful friends were abusing underage girls, and those banks shelled out millions of dollars to make their lawsuit go away…
Some of Epstein’s victims shared the same sentiments.
In 2023, they signed a $290 million settlement with JPMorgan and $75 million with Deutsche Bank after alleging the banks disregarded early signs of potential sex trafficking, according to the Times.
Those victims must have had a very strong case to get those banks to agree to such massive settlements. Why isn’t the government interested in talking to those victims?
If you ask me, that’s 4,725 potential lines of investigation right there.
Will somebody tell me what evidence there is to continue this crap? Is there dna, video, fingerprints, or anything credible in a court of law? Maxwell is in prison. Do you think she will tell anything that is truthful? She wants out “so what do want me to say?” People have got to be the dumbest animals on this planet to believe after 4 effing years the Dems haven’t corrupted this whole bullshitz story
BTTT
This has largely been self-inflicted.
When Maxwell was convicted in 2022, the verdict was actually pretty clear — she procured, Epstein abused. She went to jail, he died. That could have been presented as the end of it all. Yeah, sure, there were victims that got paid off, but they weren’t going to talk, and as far as files, lists, videos and whatnot, we could have been told up front that the stuff was destroyed, corrupted or polluted. Nothing there. Now it’s time for everyone to move on.
Instead, we were breathlessly told that justice was coming, the Deep State and Hollywood was going to be caught in a net, and it would all be glorious.
Until they decided it was “meh”.
Could arrests come as soon as today?
Arrests imminent?
Arrests…. Obama, Hillary, and SloJoe all have Secret Service protection. The other Obama flunquis dont, as it has to be done en masse, several layers will be involved.
The Dems and media used the Russia collusion hoax last time around to hobble Donald Trump. Theis time around they are using the Epstein hoax. They are trying to make Epstein a creature of Donald Trump.
Some rabid libertarians and conservatives are helping the Dems
It seems to be working. Otherwise reliable MAGA acquaintances are becoming squishy. I should have guessed it. They were also squishy during covid.
I wish more people would step back and look at this issue objectively. All of the known victims testified and have nondisclosure agreements so they cannot be called to testify. There have been many lies by attention seekers about evidence that they later admitted did not exist. Other evidence has been destroyed. If there is insufficient evidence and victims have NDA, cases will not be brought.
Ghislaine Maxwell has asked to testify. Her testimony may be salacious but will it be accurate and will there be evidence to back it up? She is looking for leverage to get a shorter sentence. The justice department is arranging for her testimony. If there is anything actionable they will proceed.
The Epstein business has little potential to bring any “John” or “Jane” to justice. It is being used by the left and its media lapdogs to distract MAGA and derail Trump’s agenda by sucking the air out of the room and sowing suspicion. No matter how tempting it is to get on a white horse and ride for justice there is no justice to be had by clamor and outcry. The two known figures have been tried & convicted. The remaining evidence is being examined and GM testimony obtained by a justice department less corrupt than any in decades. After ~20 years the victims are not looking for closure. The NDA are their chosen closure.
Trump blackballed Epstein from Mar A Lago years before he was accused and charged because Epstein tried to seduce the 16 year old daughter of a Mar A Lago manager. Trump was a friend of Epstein for years before that time. They went to the same parties etc. The women they dated were not underage. Trump was approached for background information on Epstein by a lawyer for one of the victims and was the only person out of many approached who responded and gave information. The lawyer involved said Trump’s information was very valuable. The video of that lawyers statement recently resurfaced on X. The awyer said there was no evidence or testimony that Trump was involved.
The people for whom the Epstein files are the MOST important are the anti trump folks and the left. They know Trump was not a participant but they can spin and blacken with this weapon and they have no other. Other well meaning people who despise what was done are invested in the process but they should be realistic about what is really going on and the risks of a feeding frenzy. There is so much potential loss and very little potential gain.
IOW: direct forensic evidence of crimes.
I'd rather be ignored than gaslighted.
. . . who looked the other way for decades - REPEATEDLY - as young children were human-trafficked to sexual destruction.
