How about fucking scorched earth... Cuomo, Clinton, Trump, RFK Jr, Gates... I don't care who the hell they are, I want damn good explanation for why everyone's hanging out with this guy.
I can't even make sense of what exactly his public role supposedly was? Supposedly some of the people he associated with weren't a part of his pedo ring? Why the hell were they with him?
I'm sure people partied with Diddy that weren't a part of his freakouts or whatever he called them. Just because you know a guy doesn't mean you are guilty by association, but some people are very guilty and you can tell by their attempt to disassociate with them publicly. Like Trump with Epstein.
Well yeah but that's kind of the point there... Diddy, at least made sense of where he was and why he was in that world.
Say you hear 15 A list celebreties are constantly going to parties at Eminem's house, I wouldn't bat an eye. You hear the same except, it's at some rich guy's house, that no one knows where he got any money, but he seems to be around celebrities all the time, you'd start to ask the question, what the hell is this guy, where is his money coming from and why is he around celebrities all the time?
How many investment bankers do you know about? Exactly. The only reason you are hearing and seeing this guy everywhere is because he got caught with his pants down and has connections all through parliament. How many people just like him still exist in the world and none of us are the wiser?
I have a theory that most folks were using him to hide money to make billions. Then, there were some folks who had "every day be another wonderful secret"
Fucking EVERYONE. I do not care which party they’re aligned with, at all. If they were associated with Epstein, nail them to the fucking wall and apply the legal penalties to the maximum degree possible. And then go after literally fucking anyone who was involved in spinning, downplaying, hiding, misdirecting, obscuring, or obstructing the matter. FBI and DOJ personnel; political appointees; judges; police; lawyers; Mossad agents; fucking ANYONE who played the game and helped to brush this shit under the rug. Eviscerate them to the full extent that the law prescribes and allows. Better yet: make it a RICO case, because this was and is very fucking clearly a massive and coordinated campaign.
But that will never happen, because one of the most heinous perpetrators runs the fucking country, and the Tribunal of Six is demonstrably eager to basically just suck his dick with regards to pretty much any matter that comes before them.
I fucking hate it here so much
Why the hell were they with him?
He was just a really good accountant /s
He already lost the primary and now he gets to lose the general where Mamdani's least embarrassing opponent is the guy who wears a red beret that he hasn't taken off since the 80s.
The Epstein powder doesn't need to be fired.
So the dnc are going to make him the presidential candidate for the next election, aren't they?
Trump has an even bigger Epstein problem. One, because he is the main suspect still alive and two, because he has the power to do something about it but isn't. Pretty cut and dry here that the president, DJ Trump is guilty AF. Also, I just realized JD Vance has the same first two initials, switched around, as his political daddy. That's just weird.
DJ TRUMP!!!!! 📣📣 📣📣
He actually changed his name.
Cuomo has a being a decent human being problem.
They were all best friends, the fastest of friends for more than a decade. There's dozens of then-kids testifying about their serial sexual abuse. Release the goddam Trumpstein files!
People love to forget how chummy trump was with neoliberals for decades...
Sure, it's more likely for a Republican than a Democrat, but politicians from both parties were/are involved

Andrew Cuomo also happens to have an Andrew Cuomo problem.
New York has a Cuomo problem
I envision this whole thing as a Bohemian Grove style setup. In order to be apart of the inner circle you have to partake in a ritual that gives them leverage against you, in this setup they film you raping a child or whatever equivalent. Epstein and Maxwell facilitated this process. Some of these evil f*cks seem to enjoy this part and came back (Trump, Clinton etc..) repeatedly. Once they have the dirt on you, you are made and the doors of opportunity open. If any of you go down it puts everyone in this compromised club at risk.
A very active imagination there.
The truth is vastly different.
It starts with John Casablancas. He started Elite Model Management. He would throw lavish parties where rich old men were invited. His models were required to attend the parties.
There were lots of drugs and rape and such, with a few cases of potential murder.
I'm 1988, Casablancas gave an interview to New York Magazine. He gleefully admitted to seducing a 14 year old. And also talked up his wild drug fueled sex parties.
Trump was also mentioned in the same issue. Trump is a known narcissist who obsessed over any mention of his own name.
Shortly after that 1988 article, Trump became friends with Casablancas.
Trump then introduced Epstein to Casablancas, but Epstein isn't actually as important to the story until later.
Trump and Casablancas held their Look of the Year contest at Trump properties a few years in a row.
Contestants, some as young at 14, were paraded in front of rich pedos in private shows.
Look of the Year was the same contest that allowed Casablancas to rape that 14 year old from the 1988 article.
Anyway, after hosting the contest for a few years, Trump signed up Ivanka, then 13, to be a model under Casablancas's agency, under the direct tutelage of Casablancas
Shortly thereafter, Trump bought the Miss Universe pageant franchise, which included the Miss Teen USA pageant.
Pageant contestants were required to attend Trump parties.
In the late 90s, the BBC did an expose on Elite Model Management and the rampant pedophillia. This forced Casablancas out of the agency.
This is when Trump created Trump Model Management. Shortly after, Epstein founded MC2 modeling.
The two tended to use the fame talent scouts and fixers for forging visas, but we're otherwise competitors in the Human Trafficking game.
Damn that's fucked up. But there is no legal mechanism Trump or anyone else will ever face so it literally doesn't matter.
Let's not romanticize where there's no cause - there's no evidence there was anything more complicated than a lot of sick fuckers wanting to fuck kids, and then doing that a lot. The kid-fucking was the inner circle access, and while they might have had blackmail material, it clearly wasn't enough to keep them from offing Epstein...
Epstein Files are "irrelevant" as DJT says. Because there is no (legal) mechanism that anyone in elected office will face regardless of them. They can run for office again and again and will die as freemen that fucked some kids and chummed up with the worst people in the world. What matters is keeping ghouls like Cuomo out.
Bring back the Tappan Zee Bridge!
Being a Democrat star child, it's not surprising
