I couldn’t follow any of that.


This Cummings woman is not exactly supportive of women. Say what you will of Ivanka's role, but she's bashing her teenage looks just to prove a point about Trump.

Regarding Trump's connections to modeling agencies, no doubt there was some "funny business" going on behind the scenes. But let the people slam Epstein first, as he's at the center of this issue. It will be like a huge spider web, with interconnected parts involving high-profile folks representing both parties.

I've been saying for a long time that there's a huge child sex trafficking network in the world. poor girls and boys farmed out to the elite

Epstein is one part of the picture. Look at Hollywood and its abuse of child actors.

In other words, it's bigger than Trump.

This Cummings woman worked at hiring models. She’s not knocking Ivanka’s teenaged face to make a point about Trump, she’s pointing out that Ivanka was very likely prostituted to get her career. There is a point about Trump in there (he started his own “modeling” company a year later), but the point is that trafficking is an enormous problem.


I would start with the bolded. Words like that are meant to convince you of something but are actually speculative in nature.


DP, I don't think the person you are quoting was suggesting Ivanka was sexually prostituted, but rather she was used, by her dad, as an entree into a side light business - Trump Modelling, that led to more abuse, more money laundering, more blackmail fodder etc.

Why now?


See PP's comment:

"The Miami Herald just did an investigative series about it and some information came forward . . . I think it was the information that the victims in the Florida case were never told about the deal made with Epstein back in 200?. That triggered an investigation into how that case was dealt with and then maybe they got some more information that led to this?? Maybe someone else has a different take on it. It's beyond the charges . . . there may have been corruption inside the federal system down there and that's a whopping big deal. This is just the beginning I'm afraid. "


Yup. The U.S. Attorney for SDNY even said so in the presser. “Geoffrey Berman: “we were assisted by some excellent investgative journalism.”




Thanks so much for sharing this! It brings tears to my eyes. The press has been torn down so much in the past couple of years. They deserve recognition for the good work they bring to our community.

There's plenty of info on the Epstein-Clinton association.

one example - https://www.businessinsider.com/jeffrey-epstein-traveled-with-bill-clinton-kevin-spacey-2019-7
Billionaire financier Jeffrey Epstein once flew Bill Clinton and Kevin Spacey to Africa

"Jeffrey is both a highly successful financier and a committed philanthropist with a keen sense of global markets and an in-depth knowledge of twenty-first-century science," Clinton said through a spokesman. "I especially appreciated his insights and generosity during the recent trip to Africa to work on democratization, empowering the poor, citizen service, and combating HIV/AIDS."


I can't imagine that those connected to Epstein were UNAWARE of his "side business."



It wasn't a side business. It was what he did, and then extorted people when he had the goods on them.


He was in finance. That was ON THE BOOKS. I'm not downplaying his disgusting practices of sexually abusing young girls. I'm just saying that his "legit" job was in finance where you can make all the connections in the world in order to "expand" into new territory.

He was also a teacher for a short while . . .

The finance was likely a front. There is zero documentation about his sources of investors etc.

And yes, he was hired by William Barr's father at Dalton before the head of Bear Sterns (the same person who was a major funder of Trump's) hired him at the finance firm.

There are no coincidences.

Pizzagate wasn’t just regular GOP projection, it was a straight up admission of guilt.


Maybe I sound like an idiot asking, but what do you mean?

Pizzagate isn't a topic that's handled well on this forum for obvious reasons. And whether PG is real or not, I do believe some children are at the very least, sexualized (Just watch music videos or scan ads.) and at the most extreme end, forced into sex slavery.

But what admission of guilt?


There was nothing about Pizzzagate that was real, from the venue, to the people involved. Yet it resulted in an actual shooting based on total fake news. How can you type the bolded with a straight face?


b/c I can believe that Epstein's sex ring is international - that its tentacles are long

I'm not specifically focusing on PG, but I do think politicians, businessmen and Hollywood are all in bed together.

I think these girls are pulled in internationally and nationally. I think kids crossing the border and those coming here from Eastern Europe for a "better life" are all targets. kids in foster care - in orphanages - runaways - neglected and abused kids -- ALL TARGETS

So if it's not PG, it's some other person at the end of that tentacle.


I don't disagree with your broader point, but when you say "if its not PG" as if PG has any merit at all, it totally undermines any credibility you might have. There was no PG except in the warped minds of the people who created and propagated it - from right wing wacko's to some of the folks at Fox News.

The article cited IMMEDIATELY BEFORE your comment was quoted as mentioning Clinton. What's more, all of the liberals I see commenting online are crystal clear that they're more than happy to feed Clinton to the wolves if there is evidence he's caught up in molesting kids.


I don't know anyone who thinks that if Clinton was involved with this, he should be spared. Let every sick depraved evil person who was involved with Epstein's sex trafficking ring see justice.


My point is, why now? It's convenient to say "if Clinton was involved" but the reality is, New York has done nothing about Epstein until right now. So why now?


Because AG Barr is in charge now.

Wow. SDNY is using Twitter to get out the word and to get victims to come forward.

I'd experience some major schadenfreude if Ken Starr and Alan Dershowitz get wrapped up in this. Both of them are so smug and sanctimonious.

What's being buried?

He's vile. I hope he rots in jail. But there are plenty of men in legit jobs who use it for other purposes. So we can dance around "legit" all we want. But until you show me there's no evidence of his investors, I'm going to believe he was involved in finance - and then used his connections for other purposes.


Vox - https://www.vox.com/2018/12/3/18116351/jeffrey-epstein-indictment-arrested-trump-clinton-acosta

Jeffrey Epstein, who is now 66 years old, was one of the most powerful money managers in the world up until his 2007 indictment for sex crimes. After working at the investment bank Bear Stearns in the early 1980s, he founded his own firm, J. Epstein and Co., in 1982, advertising his services for those with assets worth more than $1 billion — and was soon managing billions of dollars in client assets. By 1992, he owned the largest private residence in Manhattan. For tax purposes, he has run his business from the island of St. Thomas in the US Virgin Islands since at least 1996, and near that island, he owns the island of Little St. James.

That island is also home to Epstein’s foundation, the Jeffrey Epstein VI Foundation — best known for donating $30 million to Harvard University for the establishment of a mathematical biology and evolutionary dynamics program. In a 2003 Harvard Crimson article on Epstein and his gift to the university, he is described by Harvard luminaries — including Alan Dershowitz, who would later help represent him when Epstein was accused of sex crimes in 2007 — as “brilliant” and “one of the most pleasant philanthropists.”

From 2016: “When the Russian girls arrive in the city, they already have Jeffrey’s phone number,” said my source.”

love this comment:

A trafficking case as intricate as this did not involve just one person... for justice to truly be served, all his accomplices should be charged! These poor children deserve justice. I hope you take every last one of them down.
