Trump FLIP-FLOPS on Epstein Files, THROWS FITS at Women Reporters

5:50 Not Men but of male gender only–recently females with youngsters too… Epstein and tRump, his closest 'friend' ever, are a HUGE bouquet of worms. Who had the most to lose if GE retained the power of speech? And where did Ghislaine procure Guiffre–from Mara Lago's "Spa", tRump's own house! Who had power, influence, resources and reach to ensure a 'favorable' outcome? Who would pursue high office to avoid perpetual prosecution? Yep–you know–that F* guy…

the comments "I think it is so wrong for someone in their 40's to go have relations with a 17 year old" older men go for younger women,this goes without explaining,ripened on the vine, and the older women "cougars" are out there going after the young boys. young women go after rich men for there money or to make false allegations to reap a big reward . I heard JP Morgan paid over a million dollars to each of the young women. my question is ,where were the parents of the younger girls preceding this.

I worked with abused girls and boys and the longer you keep these files in the drawer the higher the number of victims. All this UTTER LEGALISING OF ABUSE, creates a space where thugs can buy kids. UNITED STATES PEOPLE, grow up and go after the criminals.

MTG will forever be the piece of shit who chased down Parkland kids (but maybe Megan Kelly would think they were plenty old enough for the abuse) and screeched accusations of crisis acting and false flags. I will forever defend Sam B for calling it like she saw it when she named Ivanka a feckless c*nt, and MTG deserves the same moniker. Don't trust that monster, she's just out on a sympathy tour with her sights set on a power play down the line.

10:08 as a child of the 50s, living in rural Lone Fountain, Virginia, where we pumped our water and used an outhouse, my summer job was to SLOP the pigs, I knew I’d get to the point, 😂 if we had an ornery Boar acting out, cause they could get really mean, I would’ve told Ma’s Pa that we needed to Gut that Sow before he killed us in our sleep. Superstitions run high in the rural lands, trust me.😅 (calling a boar a sow, is like calling a man a bitch.😂)

😂 no one will believe me, but I actually turned in a gay porn star to the FBI in 1970. I had been a runaway in San Francisco from Cocoa Beach Florida in 1969 and got trafficked. I made three films and this guy shows up telling us that he had killed somebody, and that they had the wrong guy in jail, his accomplice. once I got home to Coco a couple of weeks later after being on the road for four months in Atlanta and San Francisco, I called the FBI and I eventually stood grand jury testimony after depositions. My mother was high up in NASA personnel at the Cape, and had to travel back there to California with me. The name of the guy was the T. BRONSON GATES. About 10 years later, his partner had gotten out of jail and I believe he’s the one that showed up and tried to strangle me to death in Castro Valley on August 15, 1980. That’s why I rarely use my real name on social media.

What pathetic middle-aged envy. You are not superior, not possessed of "developed brains," not entitled to express "disgust" and disdain toward young people. Just the opposite. It would be "sick" for a teenager to be attracted to either of you, Erin and Alyssa. Your aging generation suffers brains that have severely deteriorated due to years of losing vital memory and learning genes and cognitive capacity, which is why large majorities of your 40-50-age mates have sunk into MAGA barbarity. While teens' behaviors have improved dramatically (which your primitive podcast refuses to acknowledge) over the last 30 years, your brain-dead middle-aged agemates suffer BY FAR the highest rates of suicide, drug overdose, alcohol overdose, family and community dysfunction driven by your skyrocketing 30-60-aged addiction, mental troubles, and violence, and crime rates higher than high schoolers' (see basic CDC, FBI, and Census statistics — if you can understand them), along with shameful right-wing idiocies. No 17-year-old in their right mind would look twice at either of you — their brains are far more advanced and future-facing than yours, they don't need to deal with your aging crises, and their generational politics are far more progressive than yours, every survey and polling (ie, CNN exit polls) shows. Yes, demeaning stereotypes and quips aren't so fun when directed at you midlife degenerates, are they?

The initial criminal investigation was opened after a 14 year old girl’s parents reported that Epstein paid her for a massage. So, there are definitely victims younger than 17 years and 10 months. More importantly, these little girls were sex trafficked; so, there’s no age that they can try and round up too, that will mean Epstein isn’t a sexual predator.
@L-B-autopilot
November 27, 2025 at 3:12 pm
The Acosta plea deal to only plead guilty to a fake prostitution charge to the oldest victim, when Acosta knew that none of the girls were prostitutes, was a sham. Many came forward, none got justice. And the plea deal, don't forget, was never discussed with the victims. It came as a surprise.

I HAAAAAATE pedos predators abusers rapists collaborators facilitators. I would personally dispatch them with my bare hands if given the opportunity.
I was raped at 6 yrs old by an adult in a position of power (religious)& when I told my grandmother, she said I had been asking for it, I liked it & it was my fault.
I have no sympathy for anyone who preys on kids& that includes teens.
However, there is definitely a difference between ppl who want to have sex with prepubescent children & ppl who take advantage of young teenage women.
Barely legal bullshit.
It’s (imo) a different psychological thing.
Men who like young women are more about the power, about showing off to their friends almost like a repulsive version of a trophy wife – like saying without saying “my money & power allow me to engage in this behavior” & they feel empowered to barely hide it. Some of them fully flaunt it & call for lowering the age of consent (I believe this is going to come up at some point sooner than later).
I’m in no way defending any of this shit but I am saying there is some difference & we need to make a point of it so it’s recognized & gone after as much as we should be going after & prosecuting ALL sex predators.
One of the worst parts is that gross predators like this recognize damaged girls & somehow know to single them out.
I know how I was acting out at 13-17 before I found a boyfriend my own age.
I certainly did not look my age & I definitely lied about it. Ppl who have sexual abuse trauma in our history sometimes make rly awful mistakes thinking we are exercising our agency & taking back power over our bodies & sexuality after whatever heinous shit happened to us & for some ppl, that might have worked somewhat but for others, it was trauma compounding trauma & men who were taking advantage of our bad decisions (which we absolutely were not equipped to be making without even fully developed decision making abilities yet), encouraging us to do these things & even worse, forcing many of us.
I wish everyone would read everything by the late great Andrew Vachss & his wife, Alice Vachss (the woman whose real life legal work as the ADA of Queens that Law & Order SVU was based on). They were the foremost experts on those kind of cases & ppl. Calling out judges, law enforcement, child protective services, sending child victims of incest back to the homes where it occurred bc they are child predators themselves.
This world is a disgusting shithole & this has been going on forfuckingever & it’s got to fkn STOP.
Megan Kelly is full of shit & her reasoning behind pointing out the difference between a 5yr old & a 15yr old had no integrity behind it but there is absolutely a difference. Someone attracted to a undeveloped, prepubescent child body is far sicker in so many ways than being attracted to a ‘barely legal’ person but that’s got a different layer of disgusting – the fact that most of those predators don’t even feel like they rly have to hide these ‘relationships’ & have so many more justifications for them.
I think it’s important to acknowledge the differences & the similarities & the fact that BOTH are ILLEGAL & WRONG & completely immoral.
I hope nobody thinks I’m defending any of these behaviors bc I’m absolutely not, I would be thrilled for them ALL to get dropped into the sea& think that’s exactly what they deserve.

Plz also note, author Whitney Webb has said multiple times that if an intelligence asset wants a 6yr old child to sexually abuse, the govt makes sure they get one.
I’m not sure there is any intel worth that bc at that point, we as a species DESERVE to be blown up.
