Erased: Nobody Testifies Against Trump Twice

Five dead. One pattern. None of them made it to sworn testimony.


This is a quick read in which the author lays out a pattern where key witnesses set to testify against Trump end up dead in suspicious circumstances. I have no doubt that if we had all the Epstein files unredacted there would be many more dates to add to her timeline.

From her concluding summary:
What you have just read is a timeline with dates attached.

Five executives dead before anyone could ask them anything. One financier dead 35 days after arrest, ten days after Judge Berman set a trial date of June 8, 2020. One woman dead within two weeks of filing a police report, before any court date could be set. One former wife dead on July 14, 2022, four days before the court-ordered deposition week of July 18. One survivor dead on April 25, 2024, active litigation pending, after writing that death would be deliberate. The line went quiet. It always goes quiet.

The mob has a word for this kind of housekeeping.

The attorney general sworn to answer for the pattern lost the job twelve days before the chair. Files naming the living remain contested and partially withheld. The limo driver has been on FBI record since October 2020 and received zero contact from the Justice Department. Giuffre named names before death.

... without leaving any footprints in the snow. If the witness and evidence disappears so does the criminal court case filed against you.

epstein gets croaked? or did he?

several dutsches bank executives have jumped from buildings.

330 gallons of sulphuric acid and an incinerator in new mexico. an island surrounded by sharks in the Caribbean.

add the morals of an alley cat and the greed of a black hole.

WTF??? How long have we been harboring these criminals, and why doesn't our justice system prosecute violent crimes against people's private parts? (girls and boys, women and men.)

Is it just men who are protecting these criminals?

Slightly different, but I've never understood men who marry women, but it isn't until they have a daughter that the many things women complain about finally resonates with them. WTF?

With the first quotation mark misplaced. Sounds like a word the mob would use for this type of "silencing."

...oh yeah, that's right. It would not please Dear Leader. And doesn't fit the Nazi narrative.

And here I thought this was the most corrupt administration in US history. But now it must be said it's not simply corruption, it's
a CRIMINAL executive. FELONY MURDER in the 1st degree. I know, he's already been convicted of 34 felonies. But those were financial crimes. Sometimes called (erroneously) "victimless".

This is different. These are the types of conspiratorial acts that get you the needle as punishment.
