This is gross.

There’s no way she should get released. What she did is beyond atrocious.

Her half way house address is

1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, D.C. 20500, United States.

she will flee to the UK or another EU country to avoid further prosecution, the mistake is she mostly stayed in places where she would get captured easily the first time.

Why would the UK or EU take her? You lot can deal with your own shit, we don't want it.

Ah, see, you think you heard that MAGA was going to “release the Epstein files” but what they actually said was “we’re going to release the Epstein pedophiles.” Yeah, they’re letting everyone involved with him off the hook.

I can see this as an actual tactic. It means that do-gooders have to handle each and every one of the released, or be forced to focus on just one.

Considering the nature of MAGA, unleashing violent criminals upon the innocent remains in character. 😞

Wait, where are the do-gooders?

(Epstein Island was a rare example of bipartisan effort)

Rare?

Democrats have a pattern of vocally opposing issues only after they irreparably solidify them.

In 1986 they helped pass draconian drug laws and mandatory minimums that supercharged mass incarceration, then decades later turned around and branded the “war on drugs” a moral failure.

In 1994 they wrote and championed the crime bill that funded more cages and longer sentences; only once whole communities were gutted did it become fashionable for them to “reckon” with mass incarceration.

In 1996 they joined Republicans to “end welfare as we know it,” slapping work requirements and time limits on poor families, then years later started admitting it deepened extreme poverty.

That same ’90s crew pushed NAFTA and the broader free-trade consensus that helped ship industrial jobs overseas, then reinvented themselves as champions of the working class once the damage was locked in.

They joined in financial deregulation at the end of the decade, tearing down New Deal banking walls, and after the 2008 crash, suddenly discovered the virtues of regulation.

On social issues it’s the same story: they crafted “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” and passed DOMA, then only when public opinion flipped did they pretend they’d always been on the side of LGBT rights.

They voted for the 2002 Iraq AUMF and let Bush have his war, then spent the next decade calling it a catastrophic mistake.

They backed the 2006 Secure Fence Act to harden the southern border, then later denounced wall-style politics as cruel and nativist.

So no, Epstein Island wasn’t some weird one-off “bipartisan moment.” Bipartisanship is the rule whenever it comes to locking people up, bombing someone, cutting social supports, or serving corporate interests, and Democrats in particular have a long record of helping build the machinery first and only discovering their consciences after it’s too late to dismantle it. At least the Republicans consistently tell you they hate you to your face.

So your problem with Democrats is that they're capable of admitting they were wrong?

Nice twist.

My problem is that they're always on the wrong side of history, and only start using the vulnerable as rhetoric after they can't kill and maim them profitably.

They don't serve us, they use as to serve the capitalist class.

You don't get it. The minority party somehow has the power to do whatever they want; they just don't because they're exactly as bad as Republicans.

I don't really know what it is you're trying to say there, but perhaps you're unaware that the dems are the minority party in both the house and senate at the moment, and as such, they have insufficient voting power to counter that of the gop maga regime.

1

They're agreeing with you. Fact is the Democrats weren't given power to stop this.

Perhaps those so inclined might show up to both primaries and the general elections next year.

Democrats can't do anything. They don't have the capacity to accomplish anything useful. They're absolutely powerless.

That's why you should vote for them.

The letter further cautioned against releasing documents related to Maxwell’s case, as they may “contain untested and unproven allegations”.

It explained that releasing grand jury materials from Maxwell’s case “would create undue prejudice so severe that it would foreclose the possibility of a fair retrial”, should her petition to be released succeed.

Oh, I get it. Just another ploy to keep the Epstein files hidden?

You can really tell who they want in jail and who they don't when you compare it to Luigi Mangioni's case. They were happy to release all sorts of documents and publicly state he is guilty (despite being presumed innocent in the eyes of the law)

Exactly. Plus, this all feels SO coordinated. Trump team had a private conversation with her. Then she gets moved to a comfortable prison. Trump approves the release of the documents, but what do you know? She is now appealing for her release and thinks the documents shouldn’t be released.

There’s 100% shit in there Trump doesn’t want public.

8

They already redacted names from the speed dial and words (names?) in another photo from those photos released the other day. If they finally release this shit it will be heavily redacted. That's why it was slow-walked, to give time to make sure everyone who matters is protected.

My client does not wish for this information to be released because this information is incriminating.

We've got emails between him and dozens of billionaires. Larry Summers chat logs where he's asking for advice while cheating on his wife. My Brother in Christ we have his Quora search history.

How many more files do you feel like you need to see? Nobody else is going to jail for this shit.

The most depressing part is that she'll get her release. She'll find a way to bribe Trump, and he'll give her a presidential pardon because he's a whore. Then she'll go back to what she was doing before and business will continue like usual for them because everybody will move on from it just like they did with the Panama papers before it and the Snowden leaking the NSA's mass surveillance even further back. Accountability and justice are dead in this timeline.

You mean like... tell him she will spill the details about the redacted stuff in the released documents?

You don't even need to blackmail Trump, just offer a few million dollars and words of praise and that's all you'll need for a pardon.

Well she trafficked underage girls who were sexually abused by rich men as part of a Mossad honeypot. Not like she did anything wrong.

Her father was a triple agent for the UK, Russia and Israel, I'm sure he'd be very proud, had he not 'fell' off his boat when he stopped being useful

"...explained that releasing grand jury materials from Maxwell’s case “would create undue prejudice so severe that it would foreclose the possibility of a fair retrial”

There it is. The excuse to redact/withhold whatever they want as ransom to keep her in prison

24

Correct me if I'm wrong. They're saying there's so much evidence that there'd be no defense. That's an unfair trial? So basically, do a bunch of evil shit and you'll get away with it. As long as you got loads of money.

"Quiet" pardon incoming.

"Quiet" in that the media, most especially Fox News, will not report it at all.

It will be interesting to watch all the sAvEtHeChIldReN qtards trying to spin this if Taco were to release this child molester.

While they are doing that, I sure hope some people take it upon themselves to ask these idiots when "The Storm" is supposedly coming? And how does freeing Ghislaine the child molester figure into this supposed "Storm", LOL?

I'm reminded of Jon Ronson's observation in "So You've Been Publicly Shamed", that the religious right are surprisingly tolerant of sexual misconduct scandals in a way that progressives aren't.

remember she is a honeypot of source, she has ties to mossad through her father, just for blackmail purposes.

If you had to pick just one, who do you think is more important to "get", the billionaires that funded and protected her and Jeffry's scheme, or her particularly?

Re-imprisonment or the dropping of protections could make her talk.

If she's out of prison she dies within a year, killed either by an assassin from one of the billionaires, or by a helpful intelligent volunteer like yourself.

I doubt she'd be assassinated by someone in the files. She must have one hell of a Dead man's switch to still be alive.

Fuuuuuck that noise. I hope someone at a state level finds a way to get her locked up for charges that Taco couldn't pardon her for.

She will be long gone by then if she is released. Our laws are not sufficient for this level of high corruption.

He will pardon her, and commute her sentence. He just pardoned a massive, evil drug lord.
