The Liars Behind The Epstein Client List (Part 2)
Before going any further, let us explore an alternative explanation for the extraordinarily lenient treatment Epstein received in 2007/08. Here it is in full. The final paragraph of the sixth page is arguably the most important because it grants total immunity to four women who had worked for Epstein. Of late, some clowns have been playing stupid semantic games asking if Ghislaine Maxwell had been charged with Epstein for trafficking, to whom had she/they trafficked underage girls?
The phrase “sex trafficking” means in effect prostitution - moving the alleged victim from one place to another in order to facilitate the sex act. Prostitutes are not victims, even though prostitution is illegal in the United States for the most part. And yes, there is no such thing as a child prostitute, but here, prostitution means paid sex. These women were traffickers or facilitators of Epstein, so yes, there was trafficking.
Now we have cleared that up, why was the no-prosecution agreement of co-conspirators even entertained, and why did Epstein receive such a light sentence? The conventional wisdom is that Epstein was some sort of state asset - Deep State/FBI/Mossad, whatever. Alexander Acosta claimed he had been ordered to broker such a lenient deal by people higher up the food chain.
There are two alternative explanations, one is that Acosta was simply lying and that he had been paid off by Epstein. The other is one that will annoy many people, including Tara Palmerie who calls herself “a veteran investigative reporter” when in reality, she is a brainless bimbo who couldn’t investigate her way out of a wet paper bag. More about her shortly.
That explanation is Epstein’s prosecutors didn’t believe he had caused these girls any harm. They had none of them been paid to perform actual sex acts - vaginal, oral or masturbation. That would have warranted extremely lengthy prison time. They were none of them prepubescent, and many had gone back to him again and again. In short, they were paid well for sordid services. One might also argue that massage is not inherently sexual otherwise any physiotherapist, osteopath or sports masseuse might be construed as performing sex acts. At any rate, that is one explanation that no one else appears to have even considered. Anyone who believes Epstein did great psychological harm to any of these girls should take a gander at the ongoing grooming gang/rape gang scandal in Britain. This did not entail 14 year olds being paid $200 for an hour or so massaging a dude on a table but often younger girls being gang-raped repeatedly for months or years on end, physically abused and even held captive.
We come now to the claim that Epstein was some sort of state agent or perhaps even a Mossad agent. Who did what, exactly? These people tend to be spies, agents provocateurs or under deep cover. As Epstein was obviously a Jew, undercover work for the Mossad is a laughable suggestion. He may have gathered intelligence for some agency or other - ie tipped off the FBI about illegal activity - but all manner of people do that all the time, that doesn’t mean they are state agents.
Epstein was though a member of the power elite, including the Trilateral Commission, and he had a long track record of philanthropy, which is why he was often in the company of the rich and powerful - an exclusive club. He was also a friend of Donald Trump, who spoke well of him, but of late, Trump claimed he never liked Epstein - a claim that is obviously false, but he is far from the only person to turn his back on a man who was once a friend. Prince Andrew didn’t, and look what happened to him.
Two reasons have been given for Trump and Epstein falling out; one is that it was due to a business conflict, the other is because Trump heard he had come on to female staff at Mar-a-Lago, and had banned him as a result.
As far as anything this woman said can be believed, Virginia Giuffre never pointed the finger at Donald Trump. When she sold her story in 2011, she was said to have received $160,000, and doubtless she received the odd payment for subsequent interviews, appearances, expenses, etc, but where did she get the money to sue Alan Dershowitz, Ghislaine Maxwell and Prince Andrew? The answer is she didn’t, rather she was taken on pro bono by corporate lawyer David Boies. He as much as Giuffre or any of the other accusers of Jeffrey Epstein - false or otherwise - was responsible for the public trashing of Prince Andrew. That being said, once again the mainstream media is at fault for its uncritical acceptance of all her claims. It should be noted that Giuffre was not regarded as a credible witness by the legal team who prosecuted Ghislaine Maxwell, so was not called as a prosecution witness, although under other circumstances she could have ended up as a co-defendant.
It would be unfair to call the aforementioned Tara Palmerie a liar, but in recent years she has been a gullible spreader of disinformation. For example, she routinely refers to Epstein as a pedophile (American spelling). Once again, Epstein had no interest in prepubescent girls (as far as is known) so he was not a paedophile. Palmerie is an unabashed admirer of Giuffre and has clearly swallowed all her “survivor” pablum. The one Giuffre myth she doesn’t believe is that she was murdered, although she puts Giuffre’s suicide down to a lifetime of trauma instead of her web of lies finally catching up with her.
Another shameless liar who warrants serious mention is Sarah Ransome. Ransome never claimed to have been a “child abuse victim”, she was well over the age of consent when she met Epstein. To put none too fine a point on it, she is a serial liar as well as a prostitute. She made allegations not only against Epstein, but against Donald Trump, Richard Branson, Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton! And to back up her claims she had sex tapes. Imaginary sex tapes! She retracted these claims when lawyers told her to put her money where her mouth is, but don’t be surprised if she continues to turn up making similar claims about these and other people a few years from now.
The bottom line is that there is no and never was any Epstein client list, ie a list of people whom he invited to sexually abuse the young. Epstein knew many people, more than most of us, and for the most part they tended to be wealthy, powerful, influential, or simply famous. The names of most of these people are now in the public domain, and doubtless there is already a small army of cranks hard at work joining up imaginary dots all over the place to implicate them in unspeakable crimes.
In this connection, we should mention another list, the Clinton death list. This is a lengthy list, but as the Clintons are now both well over seventy years old, one would expect them to have many associates, friends, or people they met on occasion who are no longer in this world. To take just one example, Keith McKaskie had a tenuous connection with Bill Clinton. He was murdered in November 1988; the following year a man named Smith was convicted of his murder. No mystery here and no culpability for either of the Clintons.
One might ask why this nonsense has suddenly become an issue when it was as good as ignored during the Biden Presidency. The simple fact is that it has become yet another attempt to take down Donald Trump or at the very least to disrupt his agenda and tarnish his legacy.
Many Trump supporters thought there was something to hide, including Dan Bongino, who had one of the biggest podcasts in the world before Trump asked him to join the FBI as Deputy Director. Bongino is a former New York police officer and a former Secret Service agent as well as a personal friend of Trump.
During one of his podcasts he related an anecdote he had been told by a current Secret Service agent, about underage girls travelling on Epstein’s Lolita Express. Clearly he believed that anecdote and a lot more, but when along with Kash Patel and Pam Bondi he was able to get down to work, he found many more anecdotes and nothing of substance. Bondi has been blamed for the way she announced the existence of “truckloads” of evidence against Epstein (and his co-conspirators). She could have handled it better, but hindsight is always 20-20.
The bottom line is that there was no grand paedophile conspiracy, The Epstein client list had no more substance than the Elm Guest House list. Case closed! It would though not be true to say this sordid business has not damaged Trump; Elon Musk swallowed these lies hook, line and sinker, something that not only destroyed their partnership but that will ultimately damage America.
