(38,766 posts)It should be clear to every American that Jeffrey Epstein was friends with some of the most powerful and wealthiest men in the world. Every new document produced provides new information as we work to bring justice for the survivors and victims. Oversight Democrats will not stop until we identify everyone complicit in Epsteins heinous crimes. Its past time for Attorney General Bondi to release all the files now, said Oversight Spokesperson Sara Guerrero.
Within documents of Epsteins schedule, there is evidence that Thiel and Bannon had scheduled meetings with Epstein, as well as evidence of a pending trip by Elon Musk to Epsteins island. Prince Andrew is listed as a passenger on Epsteins aircraft, with financial disclosures providing possible evidence of payments from Epstein to masseuses on behalf of an individual identified as Andrew. Extensive redactions have been made to protect victims as Committee investigators continue to analyze the new documents. This is a rolling production, and the Committee expects to receive more documents in response to these and other requests.
In the third batch, the Oversight Committee received 8,544 documents responsive to the Committees subpoena from August. The following was received:

They show meetings with Steve Bannon, Peter Thiel, and a potential visit to Epsteinâs Island for Elon Musk. Prince Andrew is listed as a passenger on Epsteinâs jet.
DOJ must release the Epstein files NOW.

(30,799 posts)it's my understanding that thiel is gay and married to a man. has he been a closet straight man?
my feeling is that their associations probably had more to do with laundering big money and the like. you know, financial crimes.

(30,799 posts)I searched and found one male who alleged abuse by epstein, but the trafficking seemed to be only girls and young women.

(18,994 posts)I think mainly because they are never believed. "You could have just left as a 14 year old" Yea...sure.
RockRaven
(18,091 posts)Does that make his association with Epstein any less morally repugnant and hypocritical? It was only about money, not sex, therefore what?
time to follow the money too.
but the first thought is everyone visiting there is doing it to do repugnant things to vulnerable, trafficked females. I mean for me it was. I mean the man was truly depraved.

(7,562 posts)Steve Bannons Secret Epstein Videos: The Tale of the Tapes (Exclusive)
He says its a documentary. But the 15 hours of footage Bannon shot with Jeffrey Epstein were reportedly training for a '60 Minutes'-style redemption tour that never happened and paid for by Epstein himself.
The setup looked like a documentary shoot a small crew, professional lighting, with Bannon lobbing tough, prosecutorial questions from off-camera. They were a kind of debate-prep, seemingly designed to get Epstein ready for an image-changing sit-down interview with a news outlet like 60 Minutes, with Bannon playing the part of Mike Wallace. But Epstein, The Hollywood Reporter has learned, may have footed the bill for it all, throwing ownership of the footage into question.
The interview never took place some PR rehabs are just too daunting but for months now, Bannon has been publicly promoting that footage of his erstwhile friend 12 to 15 hours, by his own count as the foundation of a planned docuseries, working title The Monster. Hes been pitching it as journalism, a raw look inside Epsteins pathology. In fact, though, those tapings seem to have been far from journalistic.
According to author Michael Wolff, who was there for the first taping and reviewed transcripts of others and who first revealed the existence of these tapes in his 2021 book Too Famous the point wasnt exposure. It was spin. Theres no question the tapes were media training, he tells THR. And theres no possible way Epstein would have signed off on them being used in a documentary.

(30,799 posts)the whole pedophile ring thing was merely an absurd bit of propaganda made up by russia to help krasnov win. but, now....
i mean every accusation they come up with is basically a confession of what they're up to. this is looking more credible all the time.
tongue only partially in cheek. republicans are an ugly lot.

always thought that it was all part on the largest criminal enterprise in American history we
need to get power back and hold all these people for their actions then and now. Trumps actions
in being part of an international child sex trafficking operation along with Epstein and Putin is just,
the tip of the iceberg.
My thoughts: Botany =
Btw Harris won but Theil, Musk, and other were into the data to the point that they were deleting
or flipping Harris votes and the cover story that she lost because she didnt get the turn was a well
crafted lie.
Btw part 2 not one part of the Steele Dossier has been disproven.
BTW part 3 Trump is cleaning out the U.S. Treasury.
BTW part 4 Trump is gonna start a war on Venezuela ASAP to try to change the subject.
BTW part 5 The budget of ICE is > than that of Russias Military.

brutalizing a younger boy so much the kid went to the hospital that would have put him in
a juvenile detention facility but daddy stepped in and he got to go to military school instead,
he flunked out of Fordham after which his dad bought him a degree from the University of
Pennsylvania, and his dad bought him a doctor that said he had bone spurs so no Vietnam
for him. And for the past ? # of years rich and powerful people and interests have supported
and protected him from his multiple crimes because he helps them out with their sick plans
for America and the world. And if that means letting the fossil fuel industries cook the planet
and the blue whale going extinct so be it.
