Recent findings on convicted sex offender Epstein

This guy apparently greased the palms of every authority he came in contact with and they all just looked away as Epstein boarded his Gulfstream with a parade of young girls still in braces all over the world as recent as this year.

When you have money, the rules are different. My guess is he either pissed-off or didn't pay-off the wrong person.

I read the Washington Post article after reading the Wall Street Journal article. They are pretty straight with how it went down.

While the girls were underage, they were willing participants. And they did not want to cooperate with the prosecution. It was difficult to find a charge (sex trafficking's at the Federal level), that could be prosecuted without the need for the girls to testify. The flight records were enough.

Acosta got a raw deal in the press.

According to the news, Acosta never informed the victims about the plea agreement. Very suspicious.

Probably because they’re still on the payroll. My guess is the shopping trips were Epstein’s worldwide delivery service.

This whole thing has an air of “too big to fail” around it. The shockwaves of bringing everything to light would touch too many well placed people that any verified and prosecuted facts will barely scratch the surface.

I've had enough of moral relativists. Epstein is a POS, as is another prominent public figure. Decades of sex parties with children. Bragging about hitting on a married woman. Cheating on Wife 2 with future Wife 3, then banging a porn star with a pregnant wife.

Dismissing immoral behavior....some folks can and some cannot.

Supe seems to think no one knew who Trump was for the past 40 years. Now he’s indignant because Trump didn’t morph into the Pope on Inauguration Day.

Stupid is as stupid does.

Clearly Supe wants to paint Trump as Epstein. - quite a stretch thar Supe.

Is it to distract from all of the travels that your hero Bill Clinton took on the Lolita express?

Quite frankly everybody who was bangin the Epstein Babes should be outed and or prosecuted where possible. These people need to take responsibility for their actions. They need to be shown up for the people that they are...exposed to the light of day..

Bill Clinton did nothing wrong.......26 times.

That must be why Supe neglected to mention it.

The Clintons are linked to Epstein...26 times..

He is part of the story or do you conveniently just overlook that fact...

Now talk about moral relativism of Liberals like yourself...which is why Democrats are SCUM...they tolerate AMORAL BEHAVIOR which means that they hold those values themselves...they see nothing wrong with it, but hold their opponents to a different standard.

I wipe scum like you off the bottom of my shoes...

Yeah, remember back when that one guy in the 90's was using his young Presidential intern as an extramarital cum-dump.. and then he dumped her but still had the audacity to publicly label her a crazed stalker?

I'm trying to remember your response about that immoral behavior. Something like "hey, consenting adults." IIRC.

tell us more about moral relativists.

Are you doubling down now..hypocrite...

Trump is a pig a real lout...no doubt about it...

Trump shows little restraint ..impulsive.

A barbarian in a suit...

How close was he to Epstein one just does not know???? Evidence goes both ways..

Trump has said, "Epstein is a fun guy to be with, a real ladies man who likes them younger."

This statement infers that Trump isn't into the younger stuff...that it isn't his cup of tea. (or he would not have made the comment about them being younger..he made a differentiation which if it didn't matter to him he would not have made) ..and that is maybe why he later put distance between himself and Epstein. Kicking Epstein out of Mar A Lago..and talking to prosecutorial investigators.

Then there is the reptilian Trump who once he got wind of Epstein's procurement and blackmail scheme...wanted nothing to do with him as he realized the danger to himself...he didn't want Epstein's hooks into him. Epstein was bad news to him..

Epstein has made a nice cottage industry for himself of procurement sic pimping and blackmailing his clients...probably mostly getting favors for people who would reward him for the access. to the tune of $500M...

So is that basically a fair analysis of Trump..

Clinton just can't resist temptation as he is pussy sick.

Tubs, you don't know me beyond my dislike of The Bigly Orange-holio. The rest is more delusional fabrications from a dude with too much time on his hands on a daily mission to buy dead mens' shoes...the stuff on the bottom of them is likely their final movement.

Here's a little secret: Not everyone who sees the POTUS as the DB he is, is a dem.

+1000
But even evangelical Christians will look the other way for the right trade-off. I don't see it as moral relativism, it's transactional - "I do this for you and you look the other way." And the supposed moral leaders take the deal and look the other way.

Which is fine with me.
Personally, I do not think that T is on E's level of scumbaggery - T is certainly a moral degenerate, a wee man-baby, and high level slime creature, but doubtful that he is anywhere near the filth level of the Epstein dude, or it would have come out already, considering the masses of people that work around the clock looking for T-smut. And the funny thing is, even if T was revealed to be a partner in debauchery with E, I doubt his supporters would given even half a shiit (or they would insist that it was all a big ol' MSM lie).
