Notice the young boys. From what I had known for years they are usually the most expensive in the "For The Rich brothels"
But you hardly ever hear that simply because "It is not manly to admit it" when you grow up.

Before Trump, all the backroom deals were out of view and you never knew who was pulling the strings. But now, it's all in the open.

This is dangerous for them because they're exposed. Which means it won't take much for them to lose their credibility. Without credibility, it becomes a falling House of Cards.

Like Harvey Weinstein. What a slimy creep.

Like in Russia, corruption and criminal behavior is accepted and the norm.

What we learned from MAGA is that outrage that has staying power is a winning formula. So, if our side accepts the change in environment, we deserve the rotten society that comes with it.

this is probably why the FBI files contain over 10,000 videos and images.

Alexander Acosta admitted that he was told that Epstein was "intelligence" and to drop his case.

Ghislaine Maxwell's father had dealings with MI6 and other intelligence, but was later found by the British Foreign Office to be a bad actor receiving funding from Russia (in other words, a Russian agent).

Epstein bragged about being Trump's "best friend".

Epstein had connections with high-level Russians:
According to Google AI: Investigations indicate close contacts between Epstein and Sergei Belyakov, a former Russian Deputy Minister of Economic Development and head of the St. Petersburg Economic Forum Foundation. As a graduate of the FSB Academy, Belyakov's connection has led to speculation about potential Russian intelligence interest in Epstein's network. Belyakov reportedly assisted Epstein with issues involving a Russian model and proposed meetings with other Russian officials.

We found a copy of this list in an online blog published January 2019 that said it sourced the list from the Wayne Madsen Report, a subscription site. The Wayne Madsen Report site describes Madsen as an investigative journalist, but he has been known to spread conspiracy theories.

The blog quoted the Wayne Madsen Report as saying, "Cohen reportedly helped settle a number of rape cases involving Trump. WMR received a list from a reputable Republican source of these settlement claims, all of which involve male and female minors," before listing the six items above. ("Cohen" refers to Michael Cohen, Trump’s former lawyer.)

Five of the listed cases supposedly took place in the 1980s and 1990s. Cohen didn’t join the Trump Organization, the parent company of Trump’s businesses, until 2006. And although Cohen said he did some work for Trump during a prior stint at a personal injury firm, Cohen was in law school until 1991.

We searched public records and results on the Nexis database and found no evidence of cases connecting the names above to Trump. Google searches also revealed no credible news stories or reports confirmed these cases.

Michael Cohen now works for the Meidas Touch Network. Don't you think he'd be broadcasting this information if it were true? I mean, if it were true, Cohen would have proof that Trump had direct connections to Epstein's illegal activities.

Claims like that are simply outrageously ridiculous conspiracy theories - only this doesn't even count as a conspiracy theory. It's simply made up bullshit.

"We have known for decades about trump and all the other pedophiles"


What other pedophiles? the post has nothing to do with anyone other than Trump.

And outside of the first item (which is proven 100% bullshit), the other 3 items have absolutely no connection to Trump being accused of being a pedophile. I mean, why is there a reference to Trump firing 30,000 Veterans Affairs employees in a post that is clearly created to catch peoples attention with info about Trump being a supposed pedophile?

It calls this a Bombshell. Everything in the post is already widely known about except the first item, and that first item is total bullshit which has no connection to reality.
