Ten possible co-conspirators sit buried beneath DOJ redactions, protected not by innocence but by silence, delay, and a Justice Department terrified of naming names.
MTG is leaving Congress because she got a few death threats (like many Dems have gotten for the last several years). She was going to read the names from the House floor because she couldn't be sued for defamation. She didn't realize a lawsuit was the least of the punishments for disagreeing with Dear Leader
"Unless the people, through unified action, arise and take charge of their government, they will find that their government has taken charge of them. Independence and liberty will be gone, and the general public will find itself in a condition of servitude to an aggregation of organized and selfish interest." —Calvin Coolidge
TriTorch, apt quote for these times. My political book club is reading the book "We" by Yevgeny Zamyatin, who wrote it in 1921, just post the Russian Revolution. The book shows how Zamyatin, very inspired by the Revolution is disappointed with the way it is carried out, causing him to write this dystopian science fiction novel in which people have no privacy except for their allotted time for sex, and where obedience is considered necessary for happiness, and freedom contradicts it. It is exactly what happens when a group get to decide what the revolution was for, and their vision is not what the people fighting in the revolution pictured things as being post the revolution. Many MAGAs are in this position now. They find themselves part of something that they had envisioned differently from those now carrying it out. The Trump-Heritage Foundation revolution with a selection of Tech evil overlords thrown in is not meeting the needs of the people, and many of them are noticing that they are victims of an "organized and selfish interest."
An apt quotation--with the understanding that Coolidge, a big friend of the wealthy, was likely warning about the dangers of socialism and Bolsheviks, already conservative/oligarchic bogeymen in Coolidge's time (see HRC and other sources). With less sophisticated syntax and high historical irony, this is also the MAGA argument against "woke" "libdems". Heavy sigh.
trump wouldn't fund anything. He's the cheapest SOB that ever lived. What I do believe is that Mar-a-Lardo was a laundering headquarters for the girls and the money.
Trump knew Ghislane Maxwell's father who started & ran the trafficking ring in Russia (USSR), Eastern Europe, USA & likely Israel. When he disappeared at sea Epstein & Ghislane continued where he left off & expanded. That is when Trump came into the picture through & with cover of his beauty padgents & modeling agency contacts.
All of this keeps begging the question, and it's begging for an answer: when the ICE-"police" are breaking the law and the Department of Justice is breaking the law and the Navy is committing murders on the high seas, while the President is a convicted felon who is constantly breaking the law:
The law is still being prosecuted aggressively (one might even say promiscuously, not to mention selectively and vindictively) against Trump's critics and political opponents.
Maybe one of these folks that figured out to see the "redacted" words anyway can manage to get the info to all of us. Apparently it's a pretty simple copy paste/highlight thing to see the words anyway.
The entire thing is horrorifying. And more so that Epstein wasn't tried, convicted & prison in Florida. Acosta needs to be investigated for that, and the cabinet position he was given in Trump admin #1. Bondi was Florida AG at the time. What did she know & was she quietly involved in the sweetheart deal that Acosta gave Epstein? If so she needs to be investigated too. Now as US AG she, US AAGTodd Blanche & DOJ are acting as Trumps personal criminal defense attorneys, obstructed justice & foot dragging release of ALL of the files with redactions that are protecting rich powerful people world wide yet again who were heavily involved. She is doing what Judge Aileen Cannon did with the Classified Documents case.
Correction: there are 10 co-conspirators, names not released, THAT WE KNOW ABOUT. There could be more who remain unidentified as perpetrators and free.
*Great point Linda; A point I make very often, lest we repeat mistakes made throughout our history. Real consequences, accountability. There are far more co-conspirators than just 10; I know this with great certainty. The "OiD- maga-epstein leadership" is a large coalition. The "OiD" (orange il Duce) is but the face-forward 'tool' attracting 'all the attention' which not coincidentally is an obsessive 'need' of his. This is no accident; It and his antics are 'tools' employed by the coalition that makes him (it) possible. I doesn't take much deep thought to connect the dots and identify the leadership coalition, just tuning out it's noise and considering things like 'where did this deviant plan come from' ? We know it's just not that bright. Where did all this money supporting it come from ? Who profits from this plan ? Always always follow the money. Where did the MSM support come from ? How many and exactly what hegemons signed to 'the plans' and contributed staggering amounts of money, aside from the showboats who are obviously very ill. Who's hiding behind the noise, antics and crimes ?
All PEDOPHILES Should be Prosecuted no matter who they are or how rich they are. Lock them up. They done the crime so they have got to do the time. They are not Christians.
Release all the EPSTEIN FILES with only the girls/ women names redacted nothing and no one else.
I am coming to more fully appreciate Michael and his many talents. Re,., the topic - Epstein cover-up, a delightful participant / contributor on a different substack, added a delightful yet accurate, proposed name for that affair. They suggested that we from this day forward, stop referring to any of this as "The Epstein Files" release. Instead, it should become absolutely viral in any reference as the "Trump-Epstein Files Coverup." I consider that not only apropos, but considerate, since we all know how much he craves attention and name mentions.... lol. Consider this Ben and Meidas crew, and also Michael Cohen. I find it delicious ! Merriest of Christmas' to all of you and yours and your readers !
I'm sure those ten co-conspirators were just the tip of the iceberg in what was surely an International criminal network. Strange how two of the eleven died in prison...
I hope Ben doesn’t give much more time to Lev. Lev pitching a fit right now is strange timing and best to be ignored. He is giving the feel of a grift.
I saw what MTN posted he was having mental issues. What is the heck going on with you guys. I get you having difference of opinion but saying someone has mental issues or should work on them is something I expect the 🍊💩 & his Maga sheep to say.
MTN evidently would not report on Ukraine, or allow Lev to do so in association with MTN. Aaron reportedly warned his father repeatedly not to be involved with Michael Cohen.
A couple months ago, Michael gave an interview saying he never saw any evidence of the Trump-Epstein friendship after he started working for Trump, but then gave an explanation of a witness he had investigated - Jane Doe, aka Katie Johnson, that made the interviewer suspect he knew much more than he was admitting to. Michael continued his claim, "I know nothing", and continued to push the idea that any solution to the Trump problem couldn't be done without him, and please subscribe, blah, blah, blah. He had virtually no real content, but interrupted Malcolm and Lev's content frequently to beg for money and insist he was crucial to saving democracy.
I'm not aware of this. Where can I find out more? I'm a huge fan and supporter of his son Aaron so I'm interested in what's going on. He is definitely NOT his father.
With all the technology out there and available .....there has to be a way to unmask these redactions. And where are are all the "Hacker's" who just live and thrive to expose hidden facts?????????? There just has to be a way to see the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Download the pdf files. Copy the content, then paste in a Word document. That is supposed to remove the redactions.
I also have seen that if you have Acrobat - not just Acrobat reader - you can open the pdf and unredact.
I have Acrobat, but with lots of other holiday stuff going on, haven't gone down the rabbit hole yet. I'm also dealing with older Macs, that are running newer OSs. I have Word, but old version, so not sure it will work on newer OSs. And I'm retired, so no more equipment or software updates. This is one of those time sucks I'm not sure I want to do, when all the people out there - like MTN and others - are working on it. I can just wait to get the scoops from them.
Thanks ….. I read somewhere the other day that the FBI used an ADOBE app but, not the premium version, which let readers view the files unredacted by doing something similar to what you have suggested here. I don’t have the time to do all this computer file juggling so, I’m with you, and will just have to wait.
So when MeidasTouch breaks the story about an additional 1 million Epstein documents that were not released, the Trump regime quickly tells the world that THEY just discovered 1 million heretofore unreleased documents — and that of course it will take additional weeks to redact them. Smarm buckets!
I hope MTG, in an act of defiance, reads the names in the Espstein Files on the House floor before she departs.
I do too!! Absolutely!
MTG is leaving Congress because she got a few death threats (like many Dems have gotten for the last several years). She was going to read the names from the House floor because she couldn't be sued for defamation. She didn't realize a lawsuit was the least of the punishments for disagreeing with Dear Leader
Me too! It would be a great parting gesture as she leaves Congress.

I question if
- not only was Trump inside the rot
-but helped fund
in a big way
the entire
criminal enterprise??
trump wouldn't fund anything. He's the cheapest SOB that ever lived. What I do believe is that Mar-a-Lardo was a laundering headquarters for the girls and the money.
he definitely was involved monetarily in some way. He raped young girls and it looks like there may have been a murder...
We now have only the tip of the iceberg. This is only the beginning, with Much more to uncover.
Could be true…
That sounds right!
Follow the money.
Trump knew Ghislane Maxwell's father who started & ran the trafficking ring in Russia (USSR), Eastern Europe, USA & likely Israel. When he disappeared at sea Epstein & Ghislane continued where he left off & expanded. That is when Trump came into the picture through & with cover of his beauty padgents & modeling agency contacts.

Thanks Michael for the

Both.

:-)
The Krassenstein brothers figured it out pretty fast on the day files were released.They posted some of the unredacted pages in their Substack.
thank you RobinW i will go try to find them n substack
We have a 14 year-old niece. Knowing that a victim who was the same age was displayed to Trump by Epstein like a piece of merchandise is nauseating.
The entire thing is horrorifying. And more so that Epstein wasn't tried, convicted & prison in Florida.

I always questioned, how in G-ds name did this country slip into the hands of someone so demonic....
If this administration has obstructed everything we ever knew to be law, why aren't we fighting back harder?
Never has there been a more corrupt Congress, Supreme Court, House, it's so vile
They just keep spinning lies and believe we can't see through all this obstruction ?!
It's disgusting, the murdering, blowing innocent people up in fishing boats, no proof of anything !!!
Our voices are not loud enough, those poor women, children at the time, 30 years ago, where is the HUMANITY ?????
they all need to be impeached and arrested for criminal occupation of our White House.
So much more must be done
NOW !
NK3 is coming! Join indivisible chapter near you and be mad, but BE FOCUSED!
