If we lived in a country with a functioning justice system and even half of what the Epstein files say about him was true, his jail sentence would be measured in centuries.

We don't even have a functioning media establishment. My retired parents get their 'news' from a mix of Facebook, Nextdoor, and what people tell them casually. My sister lives with them and aside from instagram, same thing. There's no daily newspaper, they can't navigate the constantly changing landscape of news apps, which billionaires own which media corp, which media corp is biased in which direction. It feels more like the beginning throes of societal collapse, old men aren't planting trees (for which shade they won't enjoy), they're raping kids, bribing politicians, and building island bunkers.

Agreed. The biggest issue is they want to believe the narrative because it absolves them of any responsibility for their actions/inactions.

Also, *throes

No one mentioned in the Epstein files will be affected. This is the sad reality.

Some people in other countries have already been affected. Slovakia I think. Must be nice.

There are things that need to be said about this scumbag, and there are things that need to be done about this scumbag.

I have more respect for cockroaches than I do this scumbag.

The fury is real.

Along with what others are saying… only the least damning half of the files have been released so far. He’s not absolved until the complete unredacted file set has been reviewed by someone no likely to cover for him.

And even there; he’s already a convicted felon; all he could possibly be absolved of at this point is… I’m not sure what.

His lies have got to land with 30% of the population, but even that is starting to look a bit rough

I mean, the south does have an actual problem with fathers raping their daughters. Not dismissing it doesn't happen in the North, but the south... It's bad. It might actually be a big enough problem that the southerners get furious about it.

I remember driving through a town called Hahira in Georgia. I stopped by a Bigfoot gas station to use the restroom. On the bathroom stall door, someone wrote how they rape their daughter, and no one knew how they would never be caught.

I stood there just...so Goddamn mad. Like whether it's true or some one being an edge lord...it just sickens me to my core.

What I think is interesting about this is that I've been sharing the same page with different redactions. In mine, Santos is redacted in the one with Jamie Foxx. Weird!

When you're a star that's what you can do. You can just walk up and measure the child's vagina with your fingers.

This is his child version of grab em by the pussy. Nothing wrong with this, right? I mean he's basically Jesus according to his supporters.

/s in case you're a knobhead that thought I was being serious

How are you not being serious? I mean, truly, why would this comment require a sarcasm tag?

Black is white. Up is down. Evil is good. Classic Trump deception.

Splitting crucial information on 2 pages is something i expect to be a well used trick in intelligence work.

Also the story about the killed newborn, this is the testimony of Epsteins niece is it?
