    Death and physical abuse and injury are in the files. And supposedly only Epstein and Maxwell are guilty?

    I’m ok with the U.S. government not actually distributing child sexual abuse material. I’m not ok with pretending it’s not there.

      US government helped make it.

      Epstein sent FOIA requests to the CIA on himself about his relationship with them and they sent back only GLOMARs stating they could neither confirm nor deny anything because it would reveal information on classified programs. His bodyguard claims he was sent to train with CIA at Langley upon being hired.

      I can understand them not distributing the unedited material, but it shouldn’t be hard to get edited stills of any other people in the photos or videos, other than the victims. We should see the faces of these PedoCons.

    Its looking more and more like the Soviet method is the only way forward. I would have loved for the government to put them to death, but alas, they will not kill themselves.

      We really don’t know what happened. We’ve got snippets and they’re horrible. But it’s only snippets.

          That’s clearly the intention, but I’m not so defeatist. I think we’ll absolutely go to war as an attempt at distraction. But I think they’re really scared, and if they are I trust that we still have a chance at some real consequences. I don’t trust that Donald Sr. will live to see any, but I think many other people will.

    And then they passed this rule that only congress members (personally, no aides) can look at the files, on provided government computers.

      They’re on display in the bottom drawer of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying “Beware of the Leopard”.

        I don’t think so. This was on the news just a few days ago. I think the files are quite accessible, but only to high-level officials. The point is that it would take many days of full-time work to sift through everything, and they cannot offload it to other people working for them.

    Some girls did not make it back from that island! No one is asking the real questions here. What happened to those girls?

      There was an enormous shipment of acid and apparently some areas were found stripped of their gypsum board. These two components can be combined to make something called piranha solution.

      I think you can extrapolate from incomplete data here.

        MAGA: “no, no, no, it wasn’t to dissolve bodies at all! He was making crystal meth!”

        spoiler

        (that’s an actual argument some of the MAGAts used online already)

    If there was a situation I’d want something like palantiers software to scan a shitload of video footage and give facial recognition data and a summary to exist… this is it. But of course… since it would actually do some good, it’s not being used for this case.

      Palantir is more likely to be used to try and hide this shit than it this to try and bring it out to light.

        Seeing as Peter Thiel is on the list, and frequented his island and parties, that’s a pretty safe bet that thiel is working to quash any exposure.

        I want to know if they abused boys as well, I bet they did, both thiel and mandelson are gay, and I bet they abused boys. But these releases from the doj are only a few of the people, not what they did. They don’t have to id the victims, but if thiel fucked an underage boy, which we all know he did, it should’ve been disclosed. We need a way to get this information in the public domain.

          you are saying that the guy who injects young boys’ blood into his body to preserve his own youth is also raping young boys?

          woah, man, you are sounding like a conspiracy theorist.

        Obviously, just pointing out… they literally have designed and are using a tool that has the exact capacities needed to do the unthinkable… IE watch countless hours of CSAM, that would wreck the souls of any human with a heart. identify and footnote every instance of a perpetrators face being revealed, identify and log the exact timestamp of each identifying frames.

        We know they won’t use it for this… but the irony of knowing they have the technology that has this exact capability, and are only using it to go after people that more or less have not victimized anyone is so disheartening.

        It’s like if they invented a small portable cheap device that could create safe drinking water wherever you need it, and their only thought was “hey we can use this to waterboard people”.

      With all the information we have at this point I no longer have any doubt that the coverup includes unspeakable depravity as well as people murdered and disposed of by Epstein and his friends. If a Trump snuff video showed up it wouldn’t raise an eyebrow.

      I wonder how long the Grand Old Pedophiles will be able to protect him.
