Jeffrey Epstein Is the Ultimate Symbol of Plutocratic Rot

“Epstein socialized with Donald Trump, who in 2002 described him to New York Magazine as a “terrific guy” whom he’d known for 15 years. “It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side,” said the future president. In 2000, a porter who worked next door to Epstein’s Manhattan home told a British newspaper, admiringly, “I often see Donald Trump and there are loads of models coming and going, mostly at night. It’s amazing.”

Epstein also hung out with Bill Clinton, who rode on his jet several times. Ghislaine Maxwell, a close companion of Epstein who has been accused of working as his procurer, attended Chelsea Clinton’s wedding in 2010, long after Epstein’s exposure.“

Hopefully, more Americans will have their eyes opened as to how morally bankrupt both the Republican and Democratic Parties are.

...it's already flopped:

Attempt to link Epstein to POTUS backfires on libs; attorney reveals Trump was ‘very helpful’ in case against him

For leftists trying their best to connect billionaire Jeffrey Epstein and President Donald Trump, a rediscovered video making the rounds on social media brings with it some bad news.

Bradley Edwards, an attorney who successfully represented multiple Epstein victims, actually praised Trump as one of the few connected people who chose to help him when he was building his case against Epstein — facing charges now of sex trafficking, Epstein was at the time charged with paying many underage girls for sex.

Edwards was actually sued by Epstein at one point, though that case ended up being settled and Epstein admitted to suing out of retaliation.

The Palm Beach Daily News wrote at the time about the settlement, “The #MeToo movement may have finally caught up with billionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.The 65-year-old politically-connected money manager on Tuesday admitted he sued Bradley Edwards to punish the attorney for successfully representing young women who claim Epstein sexually assaulted them at his Palm Beach mansion more than a decade ago.”

They added, “Epstein’s admission, his apology and his payment of an undisclosed amount of money to Edwards brought an abrupt end to what promised to be a salacious trial minutes before it was to begin in Palm Beach County Circuit Court.”

Many news outlets have now been trying their best to give a Trump-spin to their reporting on Epstein’s latest legal troubles.

The Independent made sure to let people know Epstein is a “former friend” of the president in their headline.

Other outlets have dug up past Trump quotes on Epstein and used those to frame their reporting.

The attempts to connect the two men, however, is falling apart thanks to an interview with Edwards being dusted off. The interview comes after the previously mentioned settlement with Epstein was reached last year.

Interviewed by The Conscious Resistance outside the courthouse after the settlement announcement, Edwards was asked about accusations that President Trump has been involved in the same things as Epstein.

“The only thing that I can say about President Trump is that he is the only person who, in 2009 when I served a lot of subpoenas on a lot of people, or at least gave notice to some pretty connected people, that I want to talk to them, [Trump] is the only person who picked up the phone and said, let’s just talk. I’ll give you as much time as you want. I’ll tell you what you need to know, ” Edwards recalled.

He added about the president, “[He] was very helpful, in the information that he gave, and gave no indication whatsoever that he was involved in anything untoward whatsoever, but had good information.”..."

Epstein socialized with Donald Trump

Trump Breaks Silence On Jeffrey Epstein: ‘Not A Fan’

"Bill Clinton was friends with pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

President Trump, not so much.

“Well, I knew him like everybody in Palm Beach knew him,” Trump said Tuesday in the Oval Office before holding talks with Amir Tamim bin Hamad al Thani of Qatar. “I mean, people in Palm Beach knew him. He was a fixture in Palm Beach. I had a falling out with him a long time ago. I don’t think I’ve spoken to him for 15 years. I wasn’t a fan.”

Trump added: “I was not — yeah, a long time ago. I’d say maybe 15 years. I was not a fan of his, that I can tell you. I was not a fan of his.”..."

Yes, the media cannot connect Trump to Epstein the way they would like to. That is why this is not the leading story on the cable news networks.

That's right. I still want to see both the Republican and the Democratic Parties be defeated by the Libertarian Party. Yeah, I know, not likely; but as the old song says, "If you don't have a dream, how you gonna have a dream come true?" :)

There are pro-life liberals, though. Are you a conservative, pro-2nd amendment Libertarian?

I have met Libertarians who want to decriminalize prostitution, recreational MJ, who are pro LGBT/gay marriage and all of that. Claiming to be Libertarian doesn't really say a lot in terms of policy positions.

2nd amendment? I believe some weapons should be kept out of private hands - nuclear weapons, tanks, warplanes, etc.
Decriminalize prostitution? Yes.
Marijuana legalization? Yes.
Marriage? The government should stay out of the issue. That is for churches and individuals to handle.

How about rifles, shotguns semi-autos?

Decriminalize prostitution? Yes.
I guess you don't have a daughter.
Marijuana legalization? Yes.
You ought to ask Colorado how that is working for them.
Marriage? The government should stay out of the issue. That is for churches and individuals to handle.
Are you okay with gay marriage, Transgender, Drag Queens?
