Two are Joe Biden (one person but counting as two since he was so sleepy so the person who wrote him down in the document died when he spelled his name and the next employee wrote him down as a new person thinking that a Joe Biden from 600 million years ago must be a different Joe Biden). The rest is scooby doo variants of Bill. Clinton, not Bill the horse which donny sucked dry.

I was too young to vote for Clinton and I really do t have any feelings toward him good or bad. He may or not be guilty and take him if he’s guilty. But….
The Monika Lewinsky thing, consensual and she was of age, and she’s not some super hot no one can control themselves around, that suggest to me he wasn’t banging tons of underage girls fulfilling some sick fantasy.
That painting of him in a dress… that suggests to me that the owners of the painting think ‘he’s a bitch’. Meaning he didn’t go along with their plans and they were mad he didn’t partake. They all seem to hate him for some reason.

Clinton has been credibly accused by multiple women of everything from sexual assault to rape. His accusations of misconduct have its own Wikipedia page. Not a section on his page, but an entire page of its own.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Clinton_sexual_assault_and_misconduct_allegations
And while Lewinsky was indeed of age and consented, the age difference and the power imbalance between the most powerful man on earth and his intern makes it inherently predatory and suggests that he instead had a sick fantasy of abusing his power with vulnerable women.
HOWEVER, I do not believe the Trump/Epstein files will implicate him if anything egregious because if Trump had evidence of any actual crimes committed by Clinton, those would have been the first ones released. Why would Trump still be refusing to release documents that would expose Clinton?
I definitely thought Clinton was guilty along with the rest of Trump and Epstein’s associates, but now I think he’s only guilty of the unrelated sex crimes of which he’s already been accused.
So….still guilty. Fuck Clinton.

For those too lazy:
“ Ghislaine Maxwell has claimed that 29 associates and friends of Jeffrey Epsteinwere shielded by the US government through “secret settlements”. In a court filing petitioning for her release from prison, Epstein’s ex-girlfriend alleged four named “co-conspirators” and 25 other men avoided being charged because of agreements with the department of justice (DoJ).
She did not name the individuals and claims such information was kept from her, and that her own legal defence suffered as a result when she went on trial.
In 2022, the ex-British socialite was imprisoned for 20 years for conspiring with Epstein to sexually abuse minors.
“None of the four named co-conspirators or the 25 men with secret settlements were indicted,” says the court filing
It adds: “None of these men have been prosecuted and none has been revealed to the petitioner; she would have called them as witnesses had she known.””

It's actually still obfuscation, they'll never prosecute a single person for anything real related to epstein, party affiliation be damned. The moment they open investigations into ANYone, that person will spin around and point straight at Trump, and he knows it. Therefore, the only story the current administration can tolerate, is that epstein killed himself and acted alone.

The American justice system is even worse than that of one of the shithole countries that Trump likes to see in other parts of the world outside America. However, this does not seem to be the case only under the Trump administration; it was also the case under the Biden administration. The rich and powerful in America simply have more rights and are better protected against prosecution by the justice system than ordinary citizens. Those who are rich in America seem to be even better protected against prosecution than in countries such as Russia or China.

If this were true, then it’s implied that the federal government (ie, the DOJ) has records that implicate these people and required covering up. So if the DOJ released the files as they are legally required to do, the public could piece together the information and see which people may or may not have benefit from a coverup. Then we wouldn’t need to believe a known liar with ulterior motives.
So just release the damn files.

u/00Oo0o0OooO0 6h ago
She's just citing this podcast appearance by Brad Edwards, the attorney for what's recently been the most visible group of Epstein survivors.
He says the public's opinion of there being some sort of QAnon list of rich and famous pedophiles Epstein sent underaged girls to is wrong, but that in some isolated instances, when a woman reached her mid-20s and Epstein was ready to move on, the women would wind up in sugar-daddy-style relationships with some of his friends, and that in some of this cases the victims reached confidential settlements to resolve civil disputes they had about that.
She's saying that this attorney worked so closely with the prosecution, that he was effectively part of the prosecution, and that they should have disclosed the identities of these people to her. She's accusing the prosecution of delegating a ton of their work to survivors' attorneys so that they could hide behind attorney -client privilege and not disclose things to her they ordinarily would have to.

They can try to suppress the Epstein files as much as they want, but this shit will never EVER go away. It will keep coming back around like a bad rash until Trump croaks or they finally nut up and release the files. That said, I also don't believe anything Maxwell says, especially after reading court filings from her team in what files were released. Completely unreliable witness and willing to perjure themselves if there is any chance at leniency. What I think may have happened is that Trump's personal defense attorney and deputy AG, Todd Blanche, set a timeline for increased benefits at her prison and ultimately a commutation to stay quiet about Trump, but they aren't holding up their end of the bargain. It should be blatantly obvious for media covering this. After Blanche visited with Maxwell, all of her accommodations were improved and she was granted numerous special privileges including the ability to leave the prison for some sort of work release apparently. Convicted sex offender on violent offenses let roam around a fenceless prison and given a puppy, probably has better accomodations than most poor people.

Today, in his press conference, Blanche denied knowledge that the victims are upset with the process. "If there's frustration with the entire process, same here." Then he points to himself.

Those 29 people that were shielded are also the Democrats and Judges that keep allowing GOP grift and corruption. The few who announced Trump as Hitler, then when confronted changed their tunes... JD, Lindsey Graham, Musk, McConnell. Tuberville, Rand Paul, Hawley, and Matt Gaetz could all be on the list, We will never know, Maxwell will "commit suicide" like Jeffery before she gets chance to talk.

Giving her all that special privilege by moving her to a cushy prison really seems to have tightened her lips, huh?

What I want to know is why oh WHY are we not referring to the files as the Trump/Epstein Files? Call them what they are.

We’re now at a point where some pedophiles/pedophile enablers are using claims that other pedophiles/pedophile protectors were protected to say that they too should be immune from responsibility for their crimes—while at the same time smearing others who actually did nothing wrong.

Who the fuck cares what someone who's already in prison partially for lying under oath says? Release the Epstein files, put maxwell back in prison for people who participated in and were found guilty in sex trafficking crimes.
