The arrest of Prince Andrew in the UK made worldwide headlines. What made fewer headlines was the tenuousness of the charges: “misconduct in public office”. Andrew was one of the few Epstein associates who could be most directly linked to the dead sex offender’s hobby. But “misconduct in public office” is an ambiguous charge based on his association with Epstein rather than any crimes against girls that he may have committed. And that’s par for the course.
Apart from Ghislaine Maxwell, who was convicted of charges related to Epstein’s abuse of underage girls, no one has been held accountable for those crimes. Certainly not the abusers.
The hysteria and manipulation of the Epstein Files has become a new #MeToo movement in which people whose names simply appeared in a document, sometimes without having any relationship to the man himself, have been dragged into the spotlight and had their lives destroyed by social media grifters and political frauds like Rep. Ro Khanna and Rep. Thomas Massie whose very recent interest in the Epstein Files is limited to destroying President Trump.
A coterie of ‘Epstein Survivors’, some of whom were really smaller versions of Maxwell, helping traffic girls to Epstein, have been put forward by Democrats like Rep. Khanna, who was funded by an Epstein pal, LinkedIn billionaire Reid Hoffman, who visited Epstein’s island, and Never Trumpers like Rep. Massie and the Bulwark crew, as well as through an ad campaign backed by everyone from the UN to abortion groups to the Carter Center, targeting Trump.
Meanwhile Bill and Hillary Clinton were dodging a congressional subpoena over Epstein.
People who should actually be going to jail are being treated like heroes and ‘survivors’ while Trump, who was one of the first to blow the whistle on Epstein, is being smeared at the behest of Democrats, Never Trumpers and the Left by women who helped traffic girls to be abused.
This cynical circus has entirely obstructed any hope of actual accountability for the abusers.
The Epstein Files have become another #MeToo, which began with the takedown of known abusers like Harvey Weinstein and Bill Cosby, who had appeared untouchable, but quickly turned into a witch hunt with fake accusers, smear campaigns against innocent people, information operations by powerful international players and a fake organization, ‘Time’s Up’, that protected the abusers and the industry while trying to redirect attention to Trump. In reality, the people behind Time’s Up were working with multiple sex abusers including Epstein.
What began with actual legal cases became cancel culture aimed at fading entertainment industry figures, who were not actually accused of committing any crimes, but of making their supposed victims feel ‘uncomfortable’. Some may well have acted badly while others fell afoul of politically motivated hit jobs by rivals, former friends, PR flacks and malicious journalists.
It wasn’t until Stephen Elliott won a six-figure settlement over his appearance on the ‘Sh___y Media Men’ list that had destroyed so many careers, and Chris Avellone won a settlement forcing his ‘accusers’ to admit that they had lied that consequences arrived for #MeToo smears.
And the fever broke.
But many careers were still permanently ruined, for which no amount of money can compensate, and more importantly, the prosecutions of actual abusers had come to an end. The original #MeToo cases were refought in the courts to a near draw with nothing to show for it.
The Epstein case followed the same trajectory, the initial arrest of Jeffrey Epstein, who had been protected from above for too long, and the arrest and trial of Ghislaine Maxwell, and then, instead of leading to actual arrests and trials, it became fodder for the same kind of #MeToo cancel culture industry and political exploitation based on lies, smears and PR campaigns.
The powerful people who (unlike Trump) chose to associate with Epstein long after his crimes were known should face a certain amount of disgrace, especially those in positions of political power (Obama’s White House counsel), who developed troubling ties to Epstein (Bill Gates), or advocated for him (Noam Chomsky), but this isn’t actual accountability for crimes against girls.
And, much like #MeToo, this kind of cancel culture has dragged in the more obviously guilty with a range of people who did little wrong, and people who did nothing wrong at all. Some people have been targeted because their name or a name that might have been theirs was mentioned in an email. People who had nothing to do with Epstein had their names spread around over it.
Rep. Ro Khanna and Rep. Thomas Massie put on a show of demanding the DOJ “unredact” the names of six “powerful men”. Rep. Khanna read their names in Congress. Four of the men turned out to be nobodies who had nothing to do with Epstein. “Rep Ro Khanna and Rep Thomas Massie forced the unmasking of completely random people selected years ago for an FBI lineup – men and women. These individuals have NOTHING to do with Epstein or Maxwell,” the DOJ revealed.
The Epstein Files have done wonders for Khanna and Massie’s ambitions for higher office, as they did wonders for the politicians and activists who had falsely accused Trump of being a rapist, but much like the #MeToo lists, they’ve done nothing to bring actual offenders to justice. That ship was sunk by unreliable and unstable witnesses, deals with ‘survivors’ who turned out to be traffickers and a fruitless search for damning photo and video evidence of actual abuses.
But the burning unanswered question in both #MeToo and the Epstein case was who had arranged to protect the powerful abusers. Those are the questions no one really wants to ask.
Take for example, the common denominator in the cases of Harvey Weinstein and Jeffrey Epstein, former Manhattan DA Cy Vance, accused of going easy on both Weinstein and Epstein (while vigorously prosecuting Trump).
The Manhattan DA’s office petitioned to keep Epstein’s name off the sex offender registry, in an incident that the judge had found baffling (“I have never seen a prosecutor’s office do anything like this,” she said), and after a model reported an assault by Weinstein, Vance’s office chose not to prosecute. One of Weinstein’s lawyers was Vance’s former law partner who had donated $24,000 to the DA and then another $10,000 after the case was dropped.
Vance is currently working at a prestigious law firm. But no one seems interested. The media isn’t camping outside his house. No one is reading his name on the floor of Congress.
And that in its own way says it all.
Unlike videos of sex crimes that may never have existed, the legal system has extensive paper trails for every interaction that Epstein (and some of the offenders in the #MeToo cases) had with the law and with elected officials. Instead of dumping random emails involving Epstein, the thing to have done would be to lay hold of every document and communication around the time that prosecutors in Florida, New Mexico and New York were protecting Jeffrey Epstein.
That would be genuinely dangerous territory. It wouldn’t just cancel a few aging intellectuals and corporate players whose star had faded a decade ago, but shatter the corrupt networks that made the abuses of #MeToo and the Epstein case possible. That’s why it will never happen.
I recently dug up an article that I wrote about Jeffrey Epstein and the Clintons back in 2015. (Long before the cast majority of the grifters and leeches who fastened on to the subject after his death were interested.) Front Page Magazine’s coverage of Hillary Clinton led to six years of IRS investigations. 11 years later, we’re still not supposed to talk about Epstein and the Clintons.
We’re supposed to look everywhere and at everything except the close Epstein allies who were the only ones with the nationwide political network that could have protected him in 3 states.
The conspiracy isn’t in some hidden vault. Telling you to look everywhere else is the conspiracy.
Well, D-Bag Epstain was executed in a jail, so I’m pretty sure he’s been held accountable for his crimes. Andrew was stripped of his royal title, excommunicated from the Royal family, consigned to a “cottage” which is actually a sumptuous estate in some beautiful countryside in Wales or wherever, was jailed briefly and is going to have some hefty court costs in the near future, so he didn’t escape unscathed. He isn’t subject to the D-Bags though, which is the only reason he was punished at all. The who’s who list Of D-Bags who sleazed their way through Epstain’s Pederast Island bordello remain unnamed and unpunished by the D-Bags, and not even RINO AG Pam Bondi seems to give a shit about their proved guilt.
“LinkedIn billionaire Reid Hoffman?” The scumbag who’s been funding Brokeback and Bigfoot Obama all these years? And isn’t he “linkedin” to Greasehead Newscum? It’s impossible to keep all these crooked D-Bags who are funders, human traffickers, pimps and ho “victims” for the party straight. Epstain had the Clintons and Obamas to protect him, and his exclusively D-Bag clients have the Dirtbagocrat party and its fake news media.
How do the D-Bags keep getting away with blaming President Trump for their own crimes and sabotage such as the long dead pervert, whore monger and money launderer, Epstain, his Pederast Island and even more debauched Zorro Ranch, the former affordability crisis and the former scamdemic? How long are the majority of Americans going to bend over for the D-Bags and say “#me too?”
And somebody kick the barking Inbred Omar and oinking Ragheada Tlaib in their D-Bag teeth just on general principles.
By now the hysterical demands of the TDS Left to “Release the Epstein Files!” are as relevant, and as worth following, as the years-long “Russia Collusion” hoax.
They keep hoping that they’ll find scandalous, even (they frantically hope) criminal, dirt on Donald Trump; but there isn’t any.
Epstein and Trump certainly knew one another socially from many cocktail parties attended by hundreds of wealthy celebrities “of their own class”; but that was all. Trump expelled Epstein from membership at Mar-A-Lago, and called the West Palm Beach cops on him as soon as he recognized Epstein for what he was, and was doing.
The idiotic accusations that Trump had flown to Epstein’s Devil’s Island for Sin with teenaged girls is an equally absurd libel: Until now and Air Force One, Donald Trump has always flown on his own, luxuriously appointed Boeing 737 jet.
Interesting, isn’t it, that the one photo I saw online of Bill Clinton lounging naked in a hot tub with a naked teenaged girl on Epstein’s island is no longer available online…. Wonder why it’s been deleted…but I don’t wonder much.
It was deleted for the same reasons the photo of half of Barely Soetoro’s face side by side with half of Lolo Soetoro’s face. Lefties delete the sordid and damning truth about themselves and their loser luminaries every chance they get. But you knew that.
ADDENDUM TO MY POST ABOVE:
A couple of weeks ago it was reported that each of the 100(?) girls who were victimized by Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell and seduced and raped by their wealthy, adult male “clients” has been paid a settlement of $1 Million EACH by Epstein’s estate and DeutcheBank.
While I can certainly understand the lifelong horror of their ordeal, it would seem to me that a million dollars should go a long way towards assuaging their pain and emotional suffering so that they can get on with their lives–maybe write a book, or a movie script?–and put it “in the rear-view mirror” of their lives.
The lifelong horror of sucking D-Bag dick for money? Those ongoing volumes could never be completed. And if they really got $1 million bucks each, it was just another act of prostitution.
A million is easy to blow these days, especially for the economically illiterate. A lot of income streams are worth a great deal if present value is analyzed, which makes a million in cash less impressive.
LOL. Great double entendres.
there is a common thread through all of the supposed outrage , and that is that none of the elite , mostly democrats and their cashed up friends will never see the inside of a jail . after the epstein case fades the guilty will still be living in their walled palaces , sipping cocktails and munching hors d’ oeuvre s at the club knowing full well that they are above the law because their mates in the judiciary share the same guilt . the only people guilty are the hoi polloi and thats because they cant afford a lawyer . j6 is a case in point then michael flynn and numerous other cases to numerous to list .
Weary of the Epstein Files saga and its laser focus on the girls and hidden “dirt” on DJT. How about delving into the wheeling and dealing (arm sales for instance) that was likely taking place between the rich, famous, and powerful?
The fact that people resign but for now no trials is worrying. In Europe, people laugh yellow because the media don’t give any opportunity to debate as they are part of the problem.
I want to say that your graphics and images are very good, it has changed and taken a certain shape isn’t? I love it very much. Like the one above, the image has become like a poster.
The problem with Daniel Greenfield is that he is too smart, too honest, and knows too much.
I take notes.
> with the takedown of known abusers like Harvey Weinstein and Bill Cosby, who had appeared untouchable
Slight correction here:
Cosby’s conviction was overturned on appeal. The DA for his first trial refused to prosecute him because the accusers were found to have not been credible. Then in his second trial, the main accuser in that case – Janice Dickinson, crumbled under cross-examination and admitted to fabricating her story for a book deal.
The judge in the Cosby trial also skipped an evidentiary hearing.
Also, Cosby was offered a plea deal for a lesser misdemeanor charge, minus jail time and sex offender registration, which would have swept the entire thing under the rug. He turned it down to maintain his innocence.
And the Cosby trial itself was also ILLEGAL to begin with, as the case wasn’t even filed in time, and the accusations for the trial were far past the Statute of Limitations.
How was Miss Maxwell convicted? There had to be direct evidence of men abusing the girls that the court saw. So, that should mean they know which men committed these abuses that Miss Maxwell was convicted of supplying victims to.. Why do we not know their names, other than our suspicions?
The names of the D-Bags who nailed underaged prostitutes at Pederast island are known Maxwell was convicted because she broke multiple laws. Her and Epstain’s D-Bag customers broke laws too, which is why everybody but the D-Bags and apparently AG Pam Bondi are pissed off and want them punished.
