The woman thought to have the most direct knowledge of Jeffrey Epstein’s decades-long sex-trafficking operation claims there was no client list, no blackmail scheme and – to her knowledge – no high-profile Epstein associates who committed illicit acts in connection with the notorious sex-offender’s crimes.
That’s according to an account provided by Epstein’s convicted co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell to a top official of the U.S. Department of Justice during a highly unusual two-day interview session last month, according to a transcript and audio of the conversation released Friday by the DOJ.
After her interviews with the DoJ, Maxwell was moved to a Club Fed prison where all inmates are eligible for work release during their detention. The fact that she gave no incriminating evidence about Epstein associates, when it is plainly obvious to everyone that she has such evidence, shows that she was not rewarded for cooperating with the investigation, but for obstructing it.

For someone so smug about “understanding the current political context,” you sure seem quite naive and gullible about believing politicians when they pledge to take action but only at some indeterminate future date.
They haven’t done anything about it at any point in the last five years, but “this time it’s different” and when do they plan on doing something? “soon”
🙄
Sorry if I came across as smug, I am more bewildered. They have already taken action in Congress, more action can’t happen until Congress is back in session. Instead of relying on your cynicism you could inform yourself and make substantive criticisms that actually land.
Oh, let me explain.
They’re desperate to spread the idea that both sides are the same. It’s happening a lot here.
They know they can’t get Lemmy to support Republicans. But they think they can suppress the vote for Dems, and that’s good enough.
They’re “doing sonething” in the same way that George Costanza would look like he’s “doing something” at work by walking around with a fast pace looking annoyed. I want results not some bullshit grandstanding that always, 100% of the time, leads to absolutely nothing in the end. I’m sick of the false promises. I’m sick of the excuses. They’ve been sitting on this since before COVID existed and now we’re told once again to wait and be patient six years later because soon something will come of it. How the fuck people can still believe this obvious pile of bullshit is beyond me. This is quite literally the exact same tactic Trump used when claiming he had mountains of evidence that the 2020 election was rigged and that it would all be released soon except now its a bunch of Democratic sycophants falling for it.
Is your reading comprehension that bad? They clearly stated that the Dems were doing something, to the point where Mike Johnson ended the session early because of it.
Yeah, and? You’re seriously trying to argue that the culmination of all their effort over five years after this woman was arrested is that a single House session ended a few days early? What the kind of nonsense is that?
Was that not you?
Yep that’s me, and that’s also me telling you that their efforts culminating in what amounts to a few extra vacation days for themselves isn’t “doing something.” What’s so hard to understand about that? Why are you making excuses for a bunch of people protecting pedophiles from justice?
What’s so hard to understand about the fact that they were doing so much that the opposition party had to shut down Congress to stop them?
That the result of their “doing so much” was a few extra days off of work for themselves. Would you call that a victory?
If your sister/cousin/daughter were molested by one of these individuals would that feel like justice served after half a decade of them sitting on this information? I think not.
Do you actually think their goal was extra days off? You can’t be that stupid.
Who cares what their goals were. We’re talking about what they’ve actually accomplished and thus far that’s only been extra days off.
The fact that this all you can point to before resorting to insults says quite a lot about the quality of your argument.
