The former FBI Director and former Judge was on ons of the Epst lists – remember Louis Freeh? No wonder the FBI did nothing with the victim allegations.

Can any woman imagine doing this?? What kind of person can groom young women, schoolgirls, or females for sexual abuse??? Someone the President 'wished her well'…

Thank you, girls. Informative yet entertaining. Here's my take: Robert Maxwell was a spy for Mossad, recruited Jeffrey because of their interest in spy communications and teenage girls. They were working for Israeli Prime minister, Baroque (sp?). The Prime minister had deep pockets and a desire for teenage girls. Ghislaine kinda fell into the trap, because, like you said, was a spoiled, useless brat who do anything for to keep her lifestyle. Her name is too high profile and when things cool off, she, too, will suffer a mysterious death. She's alive today because of daddy's communication connections and her story will bring the industry billions!!! We all have a price and the mortgage must get paid.

Maxwell's dad was Mossad. He got a state funeral in Israel. Epstein was very much connected with Israel too.

They can't resist implicating Donald Trump at every turn. What about Clinton who was definitely involved? The Democrats had all the 4 years of Biden’s faux presidency to release any evidence that existed – they certainly tried every other dirty trick to smear the bloke.

Ghislaine looks like her mother . Maxwell senior played all sides as a spy, nasty, dangerous and overbearing.
It’s all there in the history books. I doubt he ever gave Israel any of his own money …. Given he stole money from his workers pension fund.
She went to baliol college Oxford so she’s no Ivanka however much we loathe her crimes, she was very clever for a long time! And she wasn’t hiding she was out there networking

The files are being protected to such a degree by the Feds and DOJ, that they've shut government down rather than expose them, so, is it a stretch to believe EPS himself was silenced? After all, JEPS was more than the files. He had all the info that is not in them. A mere photo and association to JEPS has caused a royal Prince to step down and lose his titles and the U.S. Ambassador has been sacked. Meanwhile, DJT is still President. That says to me that there is something utterly explosive in the files. DJT moving GM to a better prison is the biggest clue to him being a huge part of it. If he wasn't, the files would exonerate him. One thing you need to do is document how many Jewish people are in them, or sympathisers – you will soon see a link.

Exposing the disgusting traits of the wealthy…..yet they still get away with it, especially Donald Drumpft. I doubt they will ever be brought to justice. So we can only hope the Karma really is a bitch……bring it on.
