There is another aspect to the Epstein case that gets very little attention. [View all]

It's not just the con artist. It's about the massive effort to shield and protect all of the men who committed horrendous assault on young girls. The effort to shield all the men who knew about the crimes men committed against young girls, never seeking justice for the victims, but using the crimes committed on the girls for political or personal leverage. There are still far too many men who do not care or take seriously the abuse and assault of girls and women. They only care about protecting men from the consequences of their actions, no matter how horrendous the actions are.
