The abuse and exploitation of women is the lure for corrupt men, the means by which Epstein gained compromising material with which to blackmail
Mostly out of sight is the purpose: to manipulate governments to change laws and remove the barriers to making money

Just imagine the stuff in the Epstein files that they're holding back.
Imagine the most heinous activity you can, because what we've seen so far is horrifying enough.
Everything they're keeping hidden has to be 500 times worse, and Trump in the thick of it, or there would be no holding back.

Congress should demand the release of all the unredacted emails they determine must be released under the law. Some censors say they redacted every name except Epstein and Maxwell because nobody gave them a list of victims' names.
NEW w/ @kevinjfrey.bsky.social: Congress will be able to view unredacted versions of the publicly released Epstein files beginning Monday, according to a letter sent to members from a DOJ official & obtained by @ms.now

It should be clear to everyone now that the problem was never with immigrants or asylum seekers but with billionaires and oligarchs 🪙 The whole scapegoating of foreigners was just a scam by the technofascists and Epstein-class to keep us looking the other way.

NEW: Epstein files show U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick was in business with Jeffrey Epstein.
Not “acquaintances.” Not “briefly met.” Business partners.
And somehow this keeps getting buried.
How many people in power were tied to Epstein and why are they still protected? A LOT!

Been thinking a bit about the way that John Brockman acted as Epstein's scientist collector and would organize dinners where Epstein would just happen to show up and I think a lesson here for *white scientists* is if you're being invited to all-white events, that might be actively intentional 🧪
