The family of Texas businessman and politician Donald Huffines owns the late Jeffrey Epstein's Zorro Ranch in southern Santa Fe County, which was purchased in 2023 by a limited liability company created just a month before the purchase.

Huffines, a former GOP state senator from Dallas, is now running a high-profile campaign for comptroller — a publicly elected position in Texas overseeing state financial matters.

That’s why DEI is stupid because it’s really about money and not skin color.

DEI was about women, not just race.

Sure but a white man from a poor family is not given any favors by people like JE just because they have white skin. You need to be a billionaire in order to join that club.

DP. I think this is the biggest reason I’m so fascinated by the email drops — the inside look into how the world of power and connections REALLY works.

I’m a middle-class kid from the Midwest who made it to the East Coast professional class thanks to the meritocracy. I was happy to just stop there and live quietly and comfortably, but I have a couple of friends from similar backgrounds who are stars in their field and sometimes rub shoulders with the type of people in the files. They have never been truly accepted by that group, and they never will be. Even though they made it completely on talent and without connections — which should be more impressive! — they’re looked down upon. It’s never overt, but it’s noticeable all the same.

There does seem to be one route to join the insiders. Someone mentioned JD Vance, and if Epstein’s life story is correct he actually fits as well. Basically, you need someone who’s already inside the group who’s willing to be your patron, and then you need to be useful to the insiders. Which usually means kissing up and/or doing their dirty work in some other way.

JD Vance was. Are you forgetting that his benefactor is Peter Theil?

Julie K Brown has been relentlessly reporting on this when very few would. Recommend her substack.

+1 She’s the whole reason any of this is happening. Not exaggerating.

Who should be charged? You do know that you need proof--or, more evidence than "xx says?"

Do I think there are likely guilty people? Yes. Do I think there is enough to convict? Probably not.

As for the women at the hearing. None of those women was a child at the time they were involved in Epstein shenanigans.

Visa fraud for a start.

But what they need to start with are all the side piece academics and professionals. Follow the crumbs up the ladder.

This is basically a mob RICO case but on a much more prominent scale. If the FBI wasn’t gutted, they could build it out.

But this circle definitely corrupted law enforcement and prosecutors.

Not sure what post you meant to respond to but even the publicly released files have evidence of crimes. BTW, it’s illegal to traffic adults too.

Epstein is dead. Ghislaine is in jail. So, who do you intend to charge? You need clear evidence. It cannot be just suspicion.
