World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Bill may be special enough his tapes are safe with Mossad or Maxwell's family. Epstein had a painting of Bill in a dress over his mantel, flew with him 20+ times, Epstein took pride in that relationship.
It's wild how we still learn more and more about Epstein's person.
He was obviously a sick bastard, but I don't think he was the worst of the lot.
He was probably more like the frat boy whose parents were always out, so everyone would party at his place. He was thrilled with being the host of it, so he could mingle with the powerful people. If he was truly the mastermind behind all the illegal shit, it seems unlikely that he'd also be stupid enough to write all those files and keep trophy pictures of rich people.
This never made much sense to me, until I realized that someone else is behind arranging the worst of it.
This would explain how he had both ordinary and completely wild illegal shit going on at the same time.
Trump plays a larger role in it, but I also don't think he is the mastermind behind it. He was allowed access because he took part in and knows the people doing the human trafficking.
I don't think we know who called the shots in the group yet.
It's a CIA Mossad joint op and Mossad is leading the show. Maxwell is effective royalty, the operation is hers. Epstein was the CIA's guy.
My bet is on Bill covering up that he's Bi. To the right wing (and that includes nearly all Democrats these days), being bi is still the same as being gay, especially if you're a guy. Probably why he helped start the rainbow capitalism push.
That seems too statistically unlikely with Trump blowing Bubba and Bush Sr being into boys. I'm gonna assume they kept inviting him out to party and kept dropping the age of the girls until they had blackmail. Conservative way to go after a big fish like Bill that would probably work if he's never heard of the CIA / Mossad project
I mean there's a good chance Clinton is Bubba
Arnold Palmer was sometimes known as Bubba. Trump has some very interesting quotes about seeing him in the showers at the club
