The Epstein List Is Dead- Long Live the Epstein List
The events of the past few days should have convinced any remaining doubters; our government is insufferably, indubitably corrupt. Tip of the hat to Leo Gorcey’s “Mugs” character on the old East Side Kids films for popularizing “indubitably.” It’s a good word. At any rate, these are real monsters, with less principles than mob bosses.
When Kash Patel and Dan Bongino, looking like terrified schoolboys in the principal’s office, insisted that Jeffrey Epstein actually did kill himself, Donald Trump lost a significant portion of his base. I think. Bongino muttered, like a witness trying to avoid a torture-induced confession, that “I’ve seen the file.” And now, to the shock of his remaining MAGA faithful, Trump’s Justice Department announced in an unsigned memo, that “This systematic review revealed no incriminating ‘client list.’ There was also no credible evidence found that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals as part of his actions. We did not uncover evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties.” So, exactly what “file” did Bongino see? The evidence that the government explains was “lost” after it was found in a safe at Epstein’s sprawling New York pad? The one that contained lots of videotapes?
Attorney General Pam Bondi had assured us, a few months ago, that the Epstein List was “on her desk.” More chillingly, Bondi claimed that the FBI was reviewing the Epstein Files, and “There are tens of thousands of videos of Epstein with children or child porn, and there are hundreds of victims.” Wow. Tens of thousands? That Bondi sure has an active imagination. Now, it’s a bit surrealistic hearing this from someone who has the persona of a 59 year old cheerleader, if any high school would permit such a thing. She also famously stated that she had received a “truckload” of documents on the Epstein case, after she’d been “misled” by the FBI. Truckloads. Hundreds of victims. “No credible evidence.” FBI director Kash Patel had vowed to release everything related to Jeffrey Epstein. He also promised to revamp the FBI, and move it away from Washington, calling it a part of the Deep State. Instead, he’s building a new shiny headquarters in D.C. Welcome to the Deep State, Kash.
Jeffrey Epstein is one of the more shadowy characters in recent history. His path to billionaire/sex trafficker status began with a job as a math teacher at the private Dalton School in New York. He was hired by school president Donald Barr, father of the Bush crime family loyalist and Trump’s second Attorney General. As with many of the rich and famous, there is a huge, unexplained gap in Epstein’s resume here. I detailed some of these gaps in my book Survival of the Richest. Epstein went from math teacher to billionaire very quickly. He was fast tracked by someone. “Installed,” as Jason Whitlock calls it. You can’t really blame him for switching careers. Flying celebrities on a Lolita Express to a Lolita Island has to be more exciting than algebra and trigonometry. Hobnobbing with the likes of Trump, Bill Clinton, Oprah, and Prince Andrew, to name just a few glittering names from the now non-list.
The List that does not exist. I asked before, just what kind of “list” is this? Did Epstein write down all the famous names who had sought his services, and by that I
