Seems like a mighty expensive and totally unfair 'hoax.' I mean, Gislaine Maxwell is sitting in prison for this hoax. Jeffrey Epstein was suicided while awaiting trial for this hoax. And an awful lot of money has been paid out for this hoax. Here's just one example:

According to the UK Daily Telegraph, Prince Andrew, aka, the Duke of York, paid out a whopping $16.3 MILLION to Virginia Giuffre in an out of court settlement. Even the Queen of England stepped up to the plate and made a $2 MILLION donation to Giuffre's charity designed to help sex trafficking victims. Giuffre's sex abuse case was set to go to trial when the battered, guilty Epstein pedo-friend Prince and the Royal Family decided to settle.

Now why did they choose to settle if the Prince was so innocent, as he claimed? Why? Because the pedo-Prince (and Queen) knew that he was guilty as sin and that his trial was going to open up the entire Epstein political blackmail operation. It was also going to expose an awful lot of very powerful people. And, it was going to expose the connection to that little nation in the Middle East that stood to benefit most from having material that would be used as a means to guarantee support from very, very powerful people.

It's the Democrats playing the Russia, Russia, Russia card as in Epstein, Epstein, Epstein??? Really?

Trump proved that Russia was a true hoax by releasing the facts and evidence and the Democrats have been losing ground ever since.

IF Epstein, et all, is also a hoax, why not use the exact same strategy by releasing ALL files, videos, depositions, etc. to the public. By doing so, that will
make the Democrats look really, really bad ... won't it?

IF there is nothing to hide and it's all a hoax, what is preventing the Justice Department from releasing everything that they have? What possible reason could they have for not doing exactly that?

Misc says

It's been what ???? 30-40 years now

Epstein was still abusing underage girls in 2018, only 7 years ago.

WookieMan says

It is unlikely they were violently raped.

I agree. From "Filthy Rich" and other stuff I read, it was really just about luring girls as young as 13 into prostitution by dangling money (and other things) in front of them.

Though there were a couple of cases where girls claimed he got violent, and that Ghislaine was in on that too, forcing herself on the girls sexually, though I'm not sure exactly how.

@RayAmerica

I think what's preventing true transparency is that:

1. It would make Israel look bad.
2. It would implicate a lot of very rich Americans on both sides of the aisle, both for sex crimes and for massive tax evasion.
3. The unknown unknowns, whatever they might be.

Yes, the tax evasion angle is interesting.

Trump plays the Left like a fiddle. They are going to destroy the credibility of the 'victims' with their usual cacophony of madness.

When Trump said hoax he was talking about himself. Accusations have been made he was somehow involved with Epstein. I've known people that have raped girls. Tax evaders. Does that make me one? Nope. That's what he means by hoax. We all have met or known bad people.

He's saying the "files" release has nothing to do with HIS involvement and that it's a hoax. It's been repeatedly reported that everything has been delayed because Trump has a problem with it. That's the hoax. I swear people don't read anymore.

Looks like Donnie is prone to believing total clowns who confidently talk about things they have no real knowledge about and whose only qualification are playing golf/kissing ass/repeating his words back to him.

Witkoff, Patel, Navarro, Hegseth... the list is longer than my arm.

RayAmerica says

They contain child porn, names of victims of sex trafficking who now have families of their own and don’t necessarily want to relive the embarrassment, and they may even implicate the CIA or other government agencies and agents who clearly allowed this guy to break laws for decades with impunity. So the government is probably protecting the victims, and perhaps even protecting the government itself by not disclosing the information on the trafficking scam. Plus as Patrick notes there are likely financial crimes as well that the government turned a blind eye to, or perhaps even benefited from. It is said that the CIA makes its own money through various criminal enterprises.

It is quite possible that if Americans knew they real truth about Epstein, there would be a total loss of faith in the rule of law and it would shatter the facade that our government protects citizens and seeks justice for all. Or it could discredit America in the world stage, or expose the CIA tactics.

I’m also open to the possibility that the whole ruse here is about getting Dems to call for the release of the files is so that when the details do come out they get the blame for the embarrassment of exposing the fact that our government allowed if not enacted the Epstein/intelligence/financial crime operation.

Yesterday, the UK Independent ran the week’s most astonishing news below the headline, “Donald Trump was an FBI ‘informant’ on Jeffrey Epstein, Republican Mike Johnson claims.” Well. Speaker Johnson didn’t exactly claim it. It was more like he let it slip out, possibly accidentally. Narrative whiplash ensued.

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/donald-trump-jeffrey-epstein-informant-fbi-b2821406.html

“When President Trump first heard the rumor, he kicked Epstein out of Mar-a-Lago,” an animated Johnson told reporters. Then: “He was an FBI informant to try to take this stuff down.”

It would explain a lot.

In 2005, Trump famously banned Epstein from his Mar-a-Lago club. A year later, Epstein was arrested in South Florida. Obama’s FBI gave him a wrist slap. Then nothing happened till Trump came into office in 2017, when —only three weeks after the Inauguration— he signed an executive order targeting “Transnational criminal trafficking.”

In 2019, Trump’s DOJ arrested Epstein, seized his island, and threw him in jail. Epstein literally died in prison.

The next year, in 2020, Trump’s DOJ arrested Ghislaine Maxwell, and gave her 20 years for crimes against kids. In 2018, Epstein victims’ lawyer Bradley Edwards said President Trump was the only prominent figure who voluntarily cooperated with their lawsuits since 2009, providing what the lawyer described as “very helpful information.”

Lawyer Edwards said —again, in 2018, after nine years on the case— that there was “no sign” Trump had been involved in any of Epstein’s crimes.

The victims have sued JPMorgan Chase (settled for $290 million), Deutsche Bank (settled for $75 million), Prince Andrew (settled confidentially in 2022), and even Epstein’s attorney Alan Dershowitz (litigated for years). But they have never sued Donald Trump.

Meanwhile, during eight years of Obama and four years of Biden, Democrats were mute about Epstein. They certainly never produced or even hinted at any connection to Trump. No subpoenas, no exposés, no whispered leaks.

"Any slander we need can be manufactured and amplified. We don't need no stinkin' reality. Hail Satan!"

https://www.coffeeandcovid.com/p/tripping-up-monday-september-8-2025

The top of the New York Times’s website featured a fascinating pivot in the paper’s Epstein coverage headlined, “How JPMorgan Enabled the Crimes of Jeffrey Epstein.” It’s especially weird, since this new focus premiered mere days after Speaker Johnson hinted that Trump might have helped the FBI nail the prolific pedophile. Look! A squirrel! In the bank! ...

It’s also the story of how a lot of big money is actually pretty shady— and bankers have grown too accustomed to it.

None of it is new; the story claims only to have boiled the whole thing down in one place for the first time. Everyone already knows the bank’s hands were somewhat dirty: JPMorgan paid victims an eye-watering $260 million and the Virgin Islands another $75 million in settlement of their claims. At least one top bank official, Les Staley, who supervised Epstein’s accounts and frequently visited pedo island, was terminated with prejudice.

The most damning fact, which probably led to those generous settlements, was this: “At Epstein’s behest,” the Gray Lady dished, “JPMorgan set up accounts — into which he routinely transferred huge sums — for young women who turned out to be victims of his sex-trafficking operations.” Well-compensated victims, but still. ...

For this morning, I’d like to focus on what was remarkably missing from the article.

The sprawling piece mentioned many of Epstein’s relationships, with well-known names like Sergey Brin, Bill Gates, Elon Musk, Leon Black, Ehud Barak, Netanyahu, and others. The Times also explained Epstein’s usefulness to bankers as a “collector of important people,” for mutual legitimacy, celebrity and regulatory contacts, and even helping the bank from time to time with mergers and acquisitions. ...

But despite all the article’s name-dropping, and despite its making the specific point that Epstein collected VIPs, there was one particular name that was missing from the list, AWOL, nowhere to be found, not among any of the 20,000+ words: the name of Donald J. Trump.

It’s so curious. Nothing in the Times’ blockbuster article was “new.” The paper said it had reviewed tens of thousands of pages disclosed during the 2023-2024 lawsuits filed against JPMorgan by the victims and the Virgin Islands. Therefore, it could have been published this story last year or anytime this year.

So, why now? ...

Maybe the reason is that last week, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) purposely (or accidentally) mentioned Trump’s role as an FBI informant against Epstein. (On Sunday, WaPo reported that Johnson has ‘backed off’ the claim.) I’d bet two Teslas that the Times frantically checked that out, called its sources, and didn’t like whatever it discovered. Hold up, guys, this story might not make Trump look like a horny goat, but like the G.O.A.T.

https://www.coffeeandcovid.com/p/enigmatic-tuesday-september-9-2025

Yesterday, a newly invigorated New York Times ran a triumphant story headlined, “House Democrats Release Epstein’s Birthday Letter Apparently Signed by Trump.”

Trump flat denies it. Yesterday, the White House said, again, that the image was not created by the President. “As I have said all along, it’s very clear President Trump did not draw this picture, and he did not sign it,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt posted on X.

When the “note” first appeared after a DOJ “leak,” Trump posted, “The supposed letter they printed by President Trump to Epstein was a FAKE.” He has hinted that Biden’s DOJ put a lot of “garbage” in the Epstein file. President Trump also sued the Wall Street Journal silly over the story, which would be a strange bit of brinksmanship if he knew the note was legit.

The bizarre note bears no resemblance to anything Trump has ever written. It looks more like something two stoned staffers worked up, giggling like Beavis the whole time.

Let’s take a single example. Trump’s language style is typically simple, direct, and usually Anglo-Saxon. In other words, he tends to use short, common words and straightforward idioms, both in speech and in his personal correspondence.

Voice Over:
There must be more to life than having everything.
Donald
Yes. there is, but I won't tell you what it is.
Jeffrey
Nor will I, since I also know what it is.
Donald
We have certain things in common, Jeffrey.
Jeffrey
Yes, we do, come 10 think of it.
Donald
Enigmas never age, have you noticed that?
Jeffrey
As a matter of fact, it was clear to me the last time saw you.
Donsid
A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday- and may every day be another
wonderful secret
Donaid J. Trump

But the word enigma is snooty, formal, literary, and Latinate (Portlanders: from a Latin root), in stark contrast with Trump’s well-known plain-talking style. Fact-checkers have pointed out that “enigma” cannot be found in the thousands of letters or public statements attributed to Trump, making its appearance in this note a puzzling outlier. (“Enigma” did appear, once each, in two of Trump’s less-well-known books; but both were almost certainly ghost-written.)

Most of all, the real enigma is why Trump would refer to himself as an ‘enigma,’ which is the opposite of brash and plain-spoken. ...

Beyond the stylistic issues, other problems with the note remain. Trump starkly denies it, he’s sued the Journal for billions, it includes strange, non-Trumpian elements, it comes without any chain of custody, and it has never appeared before now. Nobody (except possibly Epstein’s estate and House Committee members) has ever seen the original. The text appears degraded, as if by multiple layers of copying, but the scribble isn’t degraded. In other words, was the ‘drawing’ part added later?

All these arguments are red meat for the media, which is debating them with its entire arsenal of multimedia weapons, but the overlooked elephant in the outhouse is that, even if Trump did write it, the letter doesn’t actually say anything incriminating. To intuit that Trump somehow winked at shared criminal conduct —the kind that carries a life sentence— is a heavy lift. At worst, it’s bawdy and gross. But it was also a private letter, so where on Earth can you be bawdy and gross if not in private?

Finally, the scribble dates to a 2003 birthday book, which is several years before the timeline suggests Trump found out about Epstein’s conduct and banned the enigmatic mystery man from Mar-a-Lago. So … what does it prove, even if authentic? ...

What I find most interesting about this news is that the same day the Times tried to pivot to JPMorgan in a 20,000-word opus, and the Trump-Epstein story was fading away, the House Committee coughed up another copy of the birthday scribble to re-energize the media hysteria. Unless we think the House is working against Trump —and all the evidence points the other way— it seems like Trump wants the controversy to continue. Which is classic Trump media strategy.

In an awe-inspiring sense, this new, constant media drumbeat about Epstein is a kind of miracle. For years, journalists, activists, and researchers struggled to draw serious, sustained media attention to Epstein’s network and abuses. Corporate media ignored leads and buried stories. Yet now, thanks to DoodleGate, Epstein is everywhere.

How do you get the media to fully explore the Epstein story? Just. Like. This.

Soo, any dirt on Bill Gates? Shall we consider him exonerated? Have he used the word "enigma" ever?

https://slaynews.com/news/congressional-investigators-release-bill-clintons-letter-epstein/

The House Oversight Committee has released another tranche of Jeffrey Epstein-related documents, including a message from former President Bill Clinton in the disgraced financier’s infamous “birthday book.”

The surprise Monday night dump came hours after Epstein’s estate turned materials over to investigators in response to a congressional subpoena. ...

The former president’s friendly relationship with Epstein is well-documented, including multiple trips on Epstein’s plane. ...

Other parts of the book veered into the bizarre and suggestive.

It included dozens of childhood photos, topless or censored images of Maxwell, shirtless shots of Epstein, and bikini-clad women leaving notes about visits to Palm Beach.

Animal mating pictures and even a cartoon about “thinking less about money and more about naked women” also appeared in the pages.

One entry, written as a joke, appeared under attorney Alan Dershowitz’s name, claiming he had convinced Vanity Fair to change an article’s focus from Epstein to Clinton.

Dershowitz has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing in connection with Epstein. Another caption suggested Epstein was working for the CIA, accompanying a photo of him with a redacted woman.

Would be nice if they had the whole Clinton letter in the article, but no.

https://rudy.substack.com/p/women-and-children-first

Peter McCormack: “One day [Robert Maxwell’s] body is found in the ocean. Another suspicious death.”

Whitney Webb: “Yeah. Ghislaine thinks it was rogue Mossad agents and Sicilian mafia hitman that killed him.”

McCormack: “Together?”

Webb: “Working together. That's kind of the thesis of my book.” ...

“Basically what I argue in my book is that the network behind Epstein, and the reason why there's so many powerful people in this group is because it's born out of this union that occurred during World War II between organized crime and the U.S. intelligence apparatus.”

"We're never going to get an affidavit from the CIA like, "Yes, we did bad things." We've known they've done bad things in various decades. It's been very documented, and they won't admit to bad things there in almost every one of those cases. So you're not going to get that about Epstein or about anybody else."

“If I say Epstein had a relationship with people, I'm not saying they had a sex blackmail relationship necessarily. What we're trying to untangle here is the truth of who Epstein was, and why was he taken down - because I don't think he was taken down because in 2019 all of a sudden the US government became outraged about the sweetheart deal of 2007, 12 years after the fact, and then wanted to rectify some wrong. I think it was about something else.”

“Apollo Global Management is [Leon Black’s] firm that he funded with other ex-Drexel people, and his crimes with Epstein were investigated by an internal group at Apollo that exonerated him. One of the lead authors on that is a guy named Alvin Buzzy Krongard, who used to be executive director of the CIA and is one of the main suspects in 9/11 insider trading. It's a meta cartel.”

“There's a lot of weird stuff with Epstein, for example, in the 2008 financial crisis that hasn't been appropriately investigated which was, you know, in essence a huge wealth transfer from the bottom 99% to the top 1%, and of course Epstein was a major banker for the top 1%. He basically was the pin that popped Bear Sterns, and then Bear Stearns is absorbed by Epstein's new bank, JP Morgan.”

“As my books show, if you go as deep as I went in writing those two books - and you could certainly go deeper - it basically shows that the world is run by a meta-cartel. I would argue it is a cartel. It basically operates with an impunity. They have no accountability for all of their crimes, even when they're exposed here and there. Some people just are protected and above the law, almost inexplicably, and as I point out in my book, it's a lot of the same actors over and over again, the same institutions.”

Webb: “They only want to keep the discussion at sex trafficking, because it's wider than sex.”

McCormack: “Because it's wider than that.”

Webb: “Epstein was absolutely doing a lot of really shady arms trafficking stuff and financial criminality, and they have no interest in getting deep in the weeds there because that exposes other people.”

McCormack: “So, organized crime hasn't gone away. It's just…”

Webb: “Rebranded. It's rebranded. They're philanthropists now.”

McCormack: “Well, look at Leslie Wexner.”

Webb: “Yeah, of course. Leslie Wexner is a great example of that.”

“Epstein had long been a treasured customer at JPMorgan. His accounts were brimming with more than $200 million. He generated millions of dollars in revenue for the bank, landing him atop an internal list of major money makers. He helped JPMorgan orchestrate an important acquisition. He introduced executives to men who would become lucrative clients, like the Google co-founder Sergey Brin, and to global leaders, like Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel.”

“Sure enough, just as more bank employees were losing patience with Epstein in 2011, he began dangling more goodies. That March, to the pleasant surprise of JPMorgan’s investment bankers in Israel, they were granted an audience with Netanyahu. The bankers informed Staley, who forwarded their email to Epstein with a one-word message: “Thanks.””

“The fallout for JPMorgan has been limited. In 2023, it paid $290 million to settle a lawsuit brought by roughly 200 of Epstein’s victims and an additional $75 million to resolve related litigation brought by the U.S. Virgin Islands, where many of Epstein’s crimes took place. The payments were a rounding error for a company that raked in more than $50 billion in profits that year. (The bank didn’t admit wrongdoing and is trying to force its insurers to cover some of the litigation costs.) No regulator took action against JPMorgan. No executives lost their jobs. Dimon remains one of the most powerful bankers in the world.”

“The apparent impunity alarmed Bridgette Carr, a law professor and human-trafficking expert whom the U.S. Virgin Islands hired after Epstein’s death to analyze JPMorgan’s role. Carr concluded that the bank enabled his crimes. “I am deeply worried here that the ultimate message to other financial institutions is that they can keep serving traffickers,” she told us. “It’s still profitable to do that, given the lack of substantial consequences.””

One of the Satanic abuse victims said the Epstein file originals are kept by the Vatican. P2, P3 Masons (mafia, black nobles), they are all tied together with the Intels in the International crime enterprises. Of course, the Vatican is on board with the NWO. They don't care what depravity is inflicted as long as they have a shot at becoming the One World Religion.

"Whitney Webb: “Yeah. Ghislaine thinks it was rogue Mossad agents and Sicilian mafia hitman that killed him.”

McCormack: “Together?”"

Webb: “Working together. That's kind of the thesis of my book.” ...

Maybe Trump will pardon Jizzlaine with the Biden AutoPen.

https://slaynews.com/news/ex-uk-ambassador-lord-mandelson-scrambled-shield-jeffrey-epstein-fbi-investigation-emails-show/

Former British ambassador to the United States Lord Peter Mandelson is under fire after newly unearthed emails revealed he worked behind the scenes to support child trafficker Jeffrey Epstein as U.S. authorities closed in on him.

The cache of messages, obtained by Bloomberg, shows the socialist Labour Party power broker, once dubbed the “Prince of Darkness,” acting as a confidant to Epstein while serving as EU Trade Commissioner, even as the disgraced financier faced charges for abusing minors.

In one 2006 email, Mandelson wrote Epstein: “What’s cooking? Here whenever you need.”

Later, on the eve of Epstein reporting to prison in 2008, Mandelson told his “best pal,” “I think the world of you… You must fight for early release.”

The revelations paint a damning picture of Mandelson coaching Epstein through his legal troubles, with Epstein even asking whether the commissioner could help secure a pardon from Florida’s governor.

On Thursday morning, after the emails emerged, Mandelson was fired as the U.K.’s U.S. ambassador over the revelations about his relationship with Epstein. ...

Despite public denials, records show Mandelson stayed in touch with Epstein for years after his 2008 conviction for soliciting sex from minors.

Ceffer says

Maybe Trump will pardon Jizzlaine with the Biden AutoPen.

She's probably already out.

Charlie Kirk had publicly called for the release of the Epstein files. In a video posted on September 8, 2025, just two days before his death, Kirk stated:

“The DOJ should immediately move to unseal all the Epstein… Every file should be released to the public”

https://classythomasmassie.substack.com/p/massie-working-hard-to-force-a-vote

Massie’s controversial discharge petition is moving closer to the threshold of 218 signatures. If the benchmark is reached, it will trigger a floor vote on the Epstein files.

“Ro Khanna has communicated with them, I believe, and he’s indicated to me that they’ve expressed they’ll sign it. We’ll get to 218. In fact, we have one more person coming in November, so we need two signatures, and three will be here soon enough.” – Massie

The hope is that Massie’s leadership will spur such a vote, emboldening lawmakers on both sides of the aisle to release the Epstein documents.

At the moment, merely one more House vote is necessary to hit 218. It looks like Massie might build momentum toward the threshold later this month.

https://www.coffeeandcovid.com/p/reckoning-redux-saturday-september

Two days ago, Bloomberg ran an exclusive story below the headline, “Jeffrey Epstein Email Trove Reveals Ghislaine Maxwell’s Secrets.”

Bloomberg isn’t saying where they got them. But the paper reported it had reviewed “a cache of more than 18,000” emails from a particular Yahoo email account “which haven’t been previously reported.” As you might guess, the emails also apparently included scads of salacious attachments. ...

The article was packed with scandalous and tantalizing new details. For example, Bloomberg cited a “gift spreadsheet” that includes names and lavish spending on big-ticket things from a $35,000 watch for a “former Bill Clinton aide” and a Lexis for his attorney Alan Dershowitz, down to various items of “lingerie” for teenage girls and a series of “Massage for Dummies” books...

Apart from the intriguing buffet of new hints and fascinating details, what must be the article’s biggest news was buried two-thirds of the way through the lengthy story. In over 18,000 emails, Bloomberg only found three references to President Trump.

“Except for three minor instances,” Bloomberg said, “the emails do not mention President Donald Trump.” In a 2006 email, Maxwell asked Epstein to review a list (for an unknown purpose) of 51 “politicians, business executives, and Wall Street powerbrokers.” Epstein responded with two words: “remove Trump.” In a 2007 email —a month before Epstein brokered his non-prosecution agreement— Maxwell told Epstein, “you have to assume they went to donald trump, then gossman, the docs in wpb, paschow etc.”

It’s just three emails, but based on those, one can fairly assume Epstein considered Trump to be a dangerous enemy. ...

Also two days ago (not coincidentally, as it turns out), the UK Guardian ran a story headlined, “Keir Starmer sacks Peter Mandelson over Jeffrey Epstein ties.” (What we really need to figure out is how a notorious pedophile like Jeffrey Epstein managed to infiltrate layers of governments all over the world, but I digress.)

The short version is that one of the most influential, well-entrenched British deep state overlords’ career is finished. He refused to resign, so Prime Minister Kier Starmer was forced to sack him, which in British English means “fired with extreme prejudice.”

Lord Mandelson was most recently appointed as the UK’s top diplomat to the U.S., and was preparing to meet with President Trump next week in London. But before that, he has advised any number of British Prime Ministers. He has dined with the King and consulted with the Queen, probably many times. He’s known as a “political fixer,” and has held dozens of top appointments in the UK government. Including once —ironically, as it turns out— serving as the country’s top prosecutor (like our Attorney General).

I say it was “ironic” because emails and a newly released photo (above) from Epstein’s “birthday book” show Mandelson was, wait for it, close friends with Jeffrey Epstein. One begins to wonder just how many “close friends” the international man of mystery collected, in between all those massages. Thousands, it seems. Anyway, not only did Mandselson call Epstein “my best pal,” he expressed feelings of “grief” over Epstein’s 2007 conviction, strategically advised him how to get out of it, and kept being best pals anyways. ...

The emails that sank Mandelson for good were not part of any government archives. Instead, they came apparently from Epstein’s personal Yahoo account, which was just acquired and vetted by Bloomberg “using established digital investigative journalistic practices.” ...

In another email, not any quid pro quo, perish the thought, Epstein asked Lord Mandelson to seek a pardon for him as to the state charges from Florida’s Governor Charlie Crist, who was visiting the UK at the time. ...

Lord Mandelson is not any bit player. He’s the head of Britain’s deep state, connected to royalty and legions of foreign dignitaries. Whether by blackmail or by animal lust, Epstein controlled him. Now, just over the last two days, previously unseen emails and a brand new birthday book— generously seasoned with Trump derangement— permanently ended the long-time political fixer.

Who gave Bloomberg those emails?

Patrick says

Who gave Bloomberg those emails?

Were there any "Trump's Guilty Again For Dummies" books in there?

Clear as day, there is a major frame job going in those files that has the Dems drooling like Pavlov's dog.

https://www.2ndsmartestguyintheworld.com/p/epstein-files-release-the-coverup

Throwing the likes of Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, George Mitchell, Jeal Luc Brunel, Bill Richardson, Marvin Minsky, Tom Pritzker and various other John Doe sex addicts under proverbial buses is nothing more than a distraction.

At this stage of the game is the following really a major revelation?:




... The real story that mainstream media refuses to investigate is why federal judges in New York have been allowed to secret away in sealed documents the puzzle pieces to how Epstein’s network of powerful men were able to run a sex trafficking ring for two decades with the “active participation” of the largest federally-insured bank in the United States, JPMorgan Chase; and right under the nose of its Chairman, CEO and media darling, Jamie Dimon.

This is the Big Story that has been left to wilt on the vine by the likes of the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post and their peers. ...

Many of the individuals listed in Epstein’s little black book – a total of 1,571 – have had important banking relationships with JPMorgan Chase. In a court filing on July 26 of last year by the Attorney General of the U.S. Virgin Islands, which has since settled its Epstein-related case against JPMorgan Chase for $75 million, it listed the following individuals as people Epstein referred as clients to the bank: Microsoft co-founder and billionaire Bill Gates; Google co-founder and billionaire Sergey Brin; the Sultan of Dubai, Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem; media and real estate billionaire Mort Zuckerman; and numerous others. ...

The lawsuit’s theory of the case was that specific members of the Board of JPMorgan Chase “put their heads in the sand” and ignored that the bank had become a cash conduit for Jeffrey Epstein’s child sex trafficking ring because they were hoping that their own verifiable business ties to Epstein “would go unnoticed.” (We might add an attendant thesis: that Dimon takes very good care of his Board in return for them taking very good care of him.)

Mainstream media ignored the allegations that members of the JPMorgan Chase Board of Directors had business ties with Epstein and Judge Rakoff wasted no time in dismissing the case on technical grounds. (This was not the first time that a major scandal involving JPMorgan Chase received a news blackout by mainstream media.) ...

The real puzzle pieces are the thousands upon thousands of hours of videotape that Epstein recorded across all of his hidden cameras throughout his various homes and getaways. That is the most damning evidence, and it will never be released.

Former US Attorney General Bill Barr conned President Trump, ran cover for the CIA, MOSSAD, MEGA Group, and other entities that worked with Epstein. And then Bill Barr had Epstein suicided, and laughed about it during his MSM interviews.

The fact that Bill Barr’s father, author of a depraved pedo sci-fi novella, hired Epstein as a teacher in a prestigious NYC prep school is also no coincidence.

The fact that JPMorgan Chase, which aided and abetted Epstein’s sex trafficking ring for decades, is one of the owners of the Federal Reserve should give further pause as to why there is a central bank to begin with that is neither Federal nor has any actual reserves, and what deeper global financial scams are afoot leveraging powerful pedophiles.

Nope, that horse ain't dead.

Why are almost all Republicans blocking the full Epstein files from being released?

Opportunism and cowardice by Republicans here.

They note everyone is distracted, then use that opportunity to keep hiding the Epstein files from the public.

A fish rots from the head down. The executive branch has all the power necessary to release the files. And seeing how they act even when their authority is uncertain (cough, tariffs, cough) the argument that they suddenly need judges or the Congess to permit the release is insulting everybody's intelligence.

Our buddy Benjamin Fulford with his customary exotic take on things, but perhaps a bit more anchored than usual. Even the CK stuff is tied in with the Epstein files.

What gets me is Biden regime's FBI and DOJ sat on this for 4 years. Same FBI that said AntiFa or Violent Left does not exist. What is interesting as both Biden regime's White House chief of staff were Jewish American.

Yes, Congress has the constitutional authority to compel the release of investigative files held by the FBI (part of the executive branch), but this power is not absolute and faces practical, legal, and political limitations. The executive branch (DOJ/FBI) controls the files initially, but Congress can assert oversight through legislative tools, though full release may require negotiation, court enforcement, or overcoming vetoes. Below, I explain the mechanisms, limits, and Epstein-specific context.Congress's Investigative PowerAuthority: Congress's oversight stems from Article I (legislative powers) and the Necessary and Proper Clause (Art. I, § 8, cl. 18). The Supreme Court has upheld this as essential for legislation and accountability (e.g., McGrain v. Daugherty, 1927; Watkins v. United States, 1957). It includes subpoenas for documents/testimony and public release of non-classified materials.

Tools to Compel Release:Subpoenas: Committees (e.g., House Oversight) can demand files; non-compliance leads to contempt charges or court enforcement.

Legislation: Bills or resolutions (e.g., discharge petitions) can mandate release within deadlines.

Amendments: Attach to must-pass bills (e.g., defense authorizations).

Executive Branch Control and LimitsInitial Custody: The FBI/DOJ holds files and can withhold under executive privilege (e.g., national security, ongoing investigations, victim privacy).

Courts may uphold this if Congress's demand exceeds legislative needs (Trump v. Mazars, 2020).

Veto Power: Presidential veto can block bills, requiring a 2/3 override.

Practical Barriers: Political opposition (e.g., from leadership) or inter-branch negotiation often resolves disputes without full release.

Epstein Files SpecificsIn 2025, bipartisan efforts (e.g., Reps. Massie/R-KY and Khanna/D-CA's discharge petition) aim to compel full DOJ/FBI release within 30 days.

House Oversight released ~33,000 pages in September 2025 via subpoena, but critics say it's incomplete.

Senate votes (e.g., Schumer's amendment) failed, showing executive resistance (e.g., via Trump veto threats).

Congress can compel but may not force immediate, full release without override or court backing.In summary, Congress can compel via subpoenas or laws, but the executive retains leverage through privilege and vetoes, often resolved politically

PATEL: The estate of Epstein has a voluminous amount of information that they have not released

LIEU: Wouldn't it be great if the FBI subpoenaed the estate?

PATEL: The estate is under no obligation to provide that information

LIEU: That's just false. You're the frickin' FBI! You can subpoena information

Moskowitz: You've seen the picture of the woman's body with the president's signature—he says it's not his. Will you open up an investigation into Epstein estate for putting out a fake document?

Patel: On what basis?

Moskowitz: They put out a fake signature—a forgery of his signature.

Patel: Sure, I'll do it.

Kash Patel: "Do you know how court orders work?"

Dan Goldman: "I was a prosecutor. A real prosecutor for ten years. I want to understand what the court order prevents you from releasing witness statements that the FBI took... you are hiding the Epstein files. You are part of the cover-up."
