Yawn, another two sides argument

Our president of course who else?

The handling of this seems to be a total mess. That’s likely to just fuel more conspiracies and backfire.
This release was a joke.
The below picture, which was titled “EFTA00000468.pdf” in Data Set 1 was removed post-release of the Epstein files
This isn’t the end of this though. It’s the weekend, and the administration has yet to speak on the files other than the X statement by DOJ suggesting redactions are to protect victims along with politicians who are considered “victims”. → Victim to what? Blackmail?
This isn’t the end of this. Just gotta be patient. Justice will be served.

What? You mean sloppily blacking out hundreds and hundreds of pages could only fuel more conspiracies? I find that hard to believe
Or the fact that DOJ completely disregarded the actual law
They were supposed to release everything at once, and they were supposed to provide specific reasoning for redactions
Neither were followed

How, and by whom?

This is it. The key to Epstein: Bear Stearns put him on BCCI trades in 1979, as it made millions helping the CIA, Brits, Saudis & Israelis disguise covert cash by clearing $13 billion with BCCI, a CIA money laundering bank. Epstein simply developed that clientele & career niche. https://twitter.com/MikeBenzCyber/status/2002450017647301084/video/1

The wide ranging conspiracy theories for this are pretty fun.
Epstein’s rise (70s to 80s) was essentially luck, scams, and potentially help from some form of intelligence connections.
I don’t buy the “mossad agent” conspiracies.
That said, he had relationships with Douglas Leese (arms dealer during Iran-Contra), and Adnan Khashoggi is on record of being a client of Epstein’s.
Bear Stearns was his introduction to wealthy connections, and he was somehow a very talented offshore tax strategist.
However, his main source of wealth was Leslie Wexner
He clearly was connected to “high places” hence previous administrations and current administration not wanting to release files. What it exposed is the dirtiest side of politics.
Young girls were rapped, exploited, trafficked. Yes politicians are scums. As a father of two girls there are no doubts that people should be held accountable for these abject acts regardless of title, party or country.
How does one haphazardly walk into making onnections with very wealthy & powerful people with long-reaching political & financial influence?
Asking for a friend.
Plying those rich and powerful people with young ladies seems to help ![]()
This isn’t ChatGPT. This is my own input:
The first important element is that Jeffrey Epstein was an intelligent person, and was great at math/physics. He was also charismatic, and according to numerous outlets was a good looking guy in his 20s/30s.
Donald Barr (former OSS/CIA officer) was head master at Dalton School NY, and was widely considered the guy that hired Epstein to be a teacher at the school despite no degree.
Epstein leveraged wealthy students’ parents while teaching and got a job at Bear Stearns (hired by Ace Greenberg , who eventually became CEO).
Epstein, good at learning concepts quickly, essentially mastered US tax code and became a fast riser at Bear, thus getting quick access to major clients.
He got fired at Bear Stearns, yet maintained all the relationships he cultivated at Bear. He used those relationships for credibility and just kept scamming / overselling himself on his way up the social / economic ladder.
Throughout the mid to late 80s is where things get weird. Like I said, connects with Douglas Leese. Connects with Adnan Khashoggi. Co-runs the largest Ponzi scheme in history (Towers Financial Corp) and doesn’t get charged with any crime.
I think he has intelligence relationships, but he wasn’t an “agent”
The trafficking starts in the 90s, around the time he becomes power of attorney of Leslie Werner’s entire finances (Wexner was CEO of Victoria Secret), and he also got close to Jean Luc Brunel (owned a model agency, got convicted of trafficking, also died by suicide in prison)
Watch this space.
The ppl who flagged this are soft AF
I don’t know about that part, from that article that covered his rise, I don’t know that he actually had any intelligence connections. Just got himself in rooms with people who did so he could leverage that to make it appear he was connected.
