    Literal victims being victimized doing more to punish Epstein associates than the US Govt.

    I was relieved to see she was interviewed as an adult in 2019. Brave as a girl, brave as a woman.

    Question:
    How can a person who has these type of documents and accusations about them ever be allowed to run for any type of political position? Let alone become the president of a country (twice)?

        Come on. That lady didn’t believe exactly everything I believed. How could I vote for someone who is not only a female, but someone who didn’t believe exactly what I believed!?!?

          She supported everything you support, especially genocide. Which is why you’re belittling anyone who had a problem with genocide like this.

            I will belittle anyone that put Donald Trump in office. And if you didn’t vote for Kamala Harris, you helped put Donald Trump in office. I and a lot of people on this platform knew exactly what we were in for with Donald Trump 2.0. But millions of people let perfect be the enemy of the good.

            It’s a choice of survival. I’m never going to say the DNC is perfect. Frankly, I think the DNC is worse than the RNC. I’m a Bernie bro from 2016. But when you see a fuckin train coming down the tracks, step off the rails.

      Wasn’t it something like:

      • 1/3 voted in favor of him
      • 1/3 voted against him
      • 1/3 couldn’t be bothered

        I prefer a third voted against. A third voted for. And a third enabled it to happen, either by protest or ignorance.

          My FIL is a Die Hard Conservative. He refused to vote for Trump… and Harris. He didn’t vote for either to “send” a message. I told him a bigger message would be to vote Democratic but he “could not” bc they are forcing kids to be transgender. I told him to prove that and he could not but he saw it on Faux New or News Min and it had to be true.

          I asked him if he knew Faux News was settled on a 750 million dollar defamation case for the lies spread about Dominion voting sustems. He did not and said the 2020 election was a fraud… you can’t get through to these people

      A considerable amount of the American general public is criminally ignorant, willfully terrible, or both.

      Good portion of people don’t give a shit.

      I’ve spend the past three years trying to get people to investigate the sexual and physical abuse of children in Oklahoma, including some child trafficking. No one cares or wants to do anything about it. More people than we want to admit are okay with children being raped and abused as long as they are a certain type of child (foster kids usually.)

        You’re absolutely correct. From one of the kids in Oklahoma who you were talking about, who was failed hardcore by law enforcement, the courts, the Church, supposed family, fuckin’ everyone… Thank you for recognizing it, believing it, and trying to get shit done about it. I genuinely mean it with all my heart. I’m sending a big internet hug your way. <3

    Page 10: https://www.justice.gov/epstein/files/DataSet 12/EFTA02858481.pdf

    EPSTEIN talked about blackmailing people in front of [redacted]. [redacted] was confident TRUMP knew EPSTEIN blackmailed people because she heard EPSTEIN and TRUMP talking about it. [redacted] stated she knew TRUMP had illegal building permits. She heard him (TRUMP) talking about washing money through casinos.

    I wonder if this is true, about Trump washing money.

    While I fully support justified defensive violence against dick biters, I’d appreciate even more Trump using this defense in a trial over the incident.

    As much as I’m sure that child (now woman) never wants to be known publicly, I nevertheless want to give her the keys to whatever city she chooses. And free therapy for life.

      It’s wild to me that the allegations are about what happened after the bite, when in order for it to happen there must have been coercion and sexual/assault leading to it.

    Anyone else read “Doc” as “Doctor” before realizing it was “Document”? I had a flicker of hope they’d be a corroborating witness.

    Someone should check for scar tissue.

    Not me, I ain’t got the stomach for looking up under that naked stomach.

    Wow! What a piece of absolute shit. I always knew he was garbage, but this … wow.

    Also, good for her. I hope she drew blood from that little pecker. And I hope she’s still alive and doing well. The world needs more people like her.
