16. This was not a "sex ring"
Sun Nov 16, 2025, 12:37 PM
Yesterday

Sex was just the bait, and Trump has no shame about any sex. Sex with prostitutes. Sex with women he raped. Sex with his own daughter. He has no shame about any of that. That is NOT why he is panicked.

He is panicked because if we can get to the heart of this Epstein/Maxwell/Trump partnership, it will connect all the big dots for which we have already seen plenty of anecdotal evidence. Massive money laundering. Extortion. Selling of classified information. Working directly for our enemies. Having his businesses funded by the Russians. All these things come together with Epstein.

I can only hope that Murphy is not so naive as to think this is just about sex with some underage girls (which would be a huge scandal and tragedy for anybody else). I hope that Murphy has much more awareness of the full picture, but doesn't want to get ahead of his skis. I mean, Murphy should have a good idea of the extent of the FBI files, and should know that the bigger picture will be obvious if we can get the files in public.
