    I don’t doubt for a second this was Epstein’s true “purpose”, and that he collected blackmail material (or kompromat, as you prefer) for multiple intelligence agencies, including the CIA and FBI.

    This is why Barr had him killed. A bunch of old-school republican and Democratic monsters were in those videos.

    This whole thing underscores how weak the corporate news sewers are. They’re really poorly done PR, with very occasional random acts of journalism actually making it out the door.

      They regularly squash stories that would be sensational and make them money. This is how we know they have been completely captured now.

      This was never more evident than when every news agency reported the words of Maxwell, the child rapist pimp liar, that Trump did nothing wrong for three weeks straight

      When the survivors showed up to tell their story crickets. They don’t even care about things that would make them a shit ton of money if it means hurting the interests of people who own them.

        It was that way in 2016 when they tried to sell that whole “Oh he’s not that bad” bullshit. And in 2003 when they helped lie us into war. Again. And in 2000 when the SCROTUS threw the election to Bush. Etc. Nothing changes except how patient the earth is with us.

          For real, and if you look in history it goes all the way back the revolutionary war. It was always really messed up.
