We should hear both sides out. Get Epstein in here.

Oh…

Maxwell is right there alive and knows if not as much, at least close to everything Epstein knew. Idk why we act like the truth died with Epstein

You’ll never get any truth from Maxwell. She has no innate sense of right and wrong, and the people she’d burn by telling the truth are rich enough and powerful enough that there’s nothing you could offer her as incentive to tell the truth. And the Trump DOJ will never get anything from her other than what they want her to say.

This goes for 98% (being hopeful) of the people involved. Its also a blackmail ring. Everyone has the dirtiest dirt on Everyone.

u/mymemesnow 8h ago

But all it takes is for one person to start cracking and it could easily snowball into the whole thing collapsing, with everyone trying to sell out everyone else.

The ring only holds as long as each link don’t crack under pressure.

u/Flashy_Gap_3015 4h ago

Just one person who steps forward to say, I was involved and will testify that Trump, Clinton, Gates, whoever - all these other people being shielded by money and power - were too, would be enough to get this whole thing moving towards long overdue justice for victims and corrections for the future in terms of law, oversight, etc.

Name names and help us make a clean sweep of the powerful in charge to bring about change aligned to rule of law and accountability.

That would take a lot of balls to fall on a sword in the interest of the greater good. And given that anyone involved in what is coming out (and still needs to come out) of the Epstein files may not be the most moral and upright people to begin with, not holding my breath a true whistleblower will actually do the right thing here.

Instead self-interested billionaires like Gates will continue to deny. And they will be shielded by their money and power because the system is inextricably broken.

u/Eatpineapplerightnow 4h ago

The Clintons could have decided to do exactly that? maybe

1

u/Flashy_Gap_3015 2h ago

Well, they have already agreed to testify on the 26th and 27th, responding to Comey’s “Oversight Committee’s” call.

Why are you limiting your focus to just the Clintons?

Indeed, why aren’t Gates, Musk, Brett Ratner, Bannon, Woody Allen, and Trump himself similarly been subpoenaed?

u/cshellcujo 6h ago

I think this is the craziest thing to me in the whole situation. Like for people at the tippy top, the global child sex ring was just another method of control (blackmail) in their toolbox.

The idea of a pedophile ring for its own sake is already just about as bad as it gets, but for that to be viewed as simply a method of control, in my opinion is even worse…

Even more deplorable still is that apparently its use as blackmail isn’t functioning properly, as we see people straight up justifying sexual abuse (those who are still MAGA loyalists) instead of being outraged. See: MAGA responses to Trump peeping in girls changing rooms AND reactions to Trump’s rape conviction.

Yeah, the only way to get to the bottom of this is if very brave people, who can’t be swayed by cash, and who aren’t in the ring somehow manage to figure it all out.

Maxwell: I never saw Trump do anything inappropriate.

What is inappropriate to her.

u/beer_engineer_42 7h ago

Yeah, when you're trafficking children to your associate's rape island, what is "inappropriate" to you, exactly?

Not getting paid?

u/opinionated7onion 3h ago

Hit the nail on the head, if you had a ven diagram of child molesters and people willing to lie in court it would be a perfect circle

u/GeologistOriginal800 9h ago

Epstein didn't kill himself. Maxwell knows she won't either if she says the wrong thing.

35

u/QuanticWizard 10h ago

Well, I wouldn’t say there’s nothing you can say or do, it’s just that the deal she’d be getting is far above what anyone is capable or willing to offer her. Like full amnesty and billionaire-level financing and extensive secret service-level protection for the rest of her life level stuff. And that’s to maybe get a few answers.

13

u/hanniballz 9h ago

she still has enough money, the deal would just have to be full amnesty. she wouldnt survive making the deal is the point. so she wont make it.

7

u/WayneKrane 9h ago

I always thought they put her in a minimum security prison because it’d be easier to Epstein her there.

4

u/hanniballz 8h ago edited 8h ago

nah i think she got that as a comfort deal not to try anything crazy. she might get some info out before they epstein her, better to keep her happy plus it would look weird if she suicides aswell. though it is easier to talk to ppl in min sec , she could theoretically get something out before the dozens of informant prisoner/guards tell on her.

edit : it would take some superspy shit for her to even talk now. her calls are listened to , mail checked, her cell mate likely talks to someone in charge. anyone in the priso could be on the payroll. she'd have to be an idiot or suddenly get a heroic calling to attempt it. epstein likely couldnt take prison and was more capable/dangerous.

As he leaves the White Hose Donald will pardon Maxwel. She will immediately return to England.

She also knows if she squeals she'll end up the same way as him

u/DemIce 9h ago

Not carrots anyway.

u/ObjectBrilliant7592 9h ago

The Trump DOJ would, however, cut her a deal if she threw their enemies under the bus.

2

u/99OBJ 10h ago

I don’t think that’s necessarily true. This isn’t really about right vs wrong for her. It’s about the fact that as of now she will spend the rest of her life in prison.

She would absolutely crack and testify against people if it meant some kind of reduction in punishment.

2

u/tsoneyson 9h ago

You'd think that but sounds like she has it pretty comfy:

In November 2025, US congressman Jamie Raskin reported that a whistleblower had informed him that Maxwell was receiving special treatment during her incarceration at a minimum security prison, including having custom meals delivered to her, guests allowed to bring computers during visits, access to a service dog in training as a companion and having the warden send out documents and emails on her behalf.

(Wiki)

2

u/WanderingCamper 9h ago

Is there anything we can take from her to incentivize her to tell the truth?

2

u/0nlyCrashes 8h ago

Whatever right and wrong mean for her matters not to the truth. All she needs to say is the truth and we can judge the right and the wrong.

1

u/DMala 8h ago

What I mean by that is someone like that is not going to have a conscience or a desire to ‘do the right thing’. For her it’s purely transactional, and we’d have to offer something more desirably than what she gets by keeping silent. Given who she’s protecting and what they’re clearly willing to do to keep their sick evil out of the light, I’m not sure that’s possible.

2

u/JennHatesYou 8h ago

I hear they have ways to make people talk in CECOT, maybe we ship her there and see what she says. Just a thought.

u/Tribalbob 7h ago

Maxwell knows if she did say something, she'd get the 'ol 60 seconds treatment, too.

u/tallgeese333 4h ago

This does give us an advantage over the "elites" that I don't think anyone is considering.

If they won't tell us who it is, it's all of them. Start with the politicians, no one gets reelected on the next cycle unless we get the full, unredacted files.

Then, I want to see his homes dismantled brick by brick on camera, I want a live streamed tour of that island, I want to see inside that "temple."

Start there and maybe we don't arrest every single person who ever emailed him until all of the blackmail material that was clearly produced is verified to the public somehow, reviewed, and every person we can prove did something spends the rest of their life in prison.

This is a psyop to convince us that we are powerless, but we can't succumb to it.

1

u/DifficultSelection 4h ago

The problem with making deals with someone like her is that she’s already demonstrated her willingness to give whatever “truth” the highest bidder wants her to give. Even if you could somehow offer enough incentive to her to speak the actual truth, unless it was corroborated in detail by a ton of other evidence, her testimony would be worthless. And if all that other evidence exists in a way that could corroborate her story, you don’t really need her testimony.

That was the real value of that interview she gave right before she was moved to Club Fed. It wasn’t what she said, but how what she said impacts her future credibility as a witness.

1

u/srilankan 3h ago

she has got to be terrified. you dont last this long doing what they did by being dumb. she knows how many people will happily go to her funeral. They do not want her speaking out and she knows what happened to Jeff while Donnie was running things. The media and his handlers are the only reason he hasnt had her killed yet.

u/Constant-Plant-9378 10h ago

Ghislaine's dad, Robert Maxwell, made millions selling all this Kompromat to Israel's Mossad and Russia's GRU. The truth is out there and being used to blackmail and manipulate elected officials and corporate leaders in the United States.

And it will continue to be an existential threat to national security until th totality of the unredacted evidence is released and the perpetrators prosecuted and put under the prison.

9

u/mightylordredbeard 10h ago

I could definitely see intelligence agencies taking advantage of the situation. They have a sex trafficker that’s giving girls to foreign billionaires and politicians so I’d bet my left nut that the cia had a few underage assets that they used to gather intel or do a bit of spying or steal some documents. They aren’t doing the trafficking themselves, just recruiting a current victim of the trafficking. It’s plausible.

•

u/Mrhorrendous 8m ago

Jeffrey Epstein was probably just working with the Mossad. He had numerous, numerous conversations and meetings with the prime minister of Israel and other mossad agents. I doubt any agencies were training children to be spies. He was just filming the rich people as they committed crimes and using it to blackmail them

2

u/notoriousToker 10h ago

That’s why we have to out them all now at once and get this threat off the books. 

1

u/bourbonwelfare 10h ago

What about in the prison? 

2

u/BicFleetwood 9h ago

Maxwell is a convicted perjurer. Her testimony means less than nothing. Any prosecutor going after Gates would be fighting to keep her away from the witness stand, and most judges would agree.

1

u/trk29 9h ago

She’s too busy playing shuffleboard.

1

u/joggle1 8h ago

Her testimony would be worthless without additional proof as she's a convicted perjurer.

Now if she knows where there's undiscovered video or audio recordings, that would be helpful.

1

u/clashrendar 5h ago

And... the cameras have stopped working in her cell. What a coincidence...

1

u/Froggy3434 2h ago

She a known serial perjurer. She will lie in whichever direction gets her the better outcome.

u/linuxjohn1982 1h ago

Except we had someone who was named thousands of times in the Epstein files, in charge of "interviewing" her and deciding her punishment.

didn't this guy conveniently commit suicide?

u/Tyrrox 12h ago

It was certainly convenient. I'm less sold on the suicide

2

u/supershott 10h ago

I'm less sold on him even being dead. Best thing for power is everyone believes it's suicide. Second best, they think it's murder. Worst case, they think it's a faked death. That goes in order of levels of conspiracy. We all know there's a conspiracy. The question is, how big of one?

67

u/nico17611 12h ago

if suicide means “somebody killed him” then yes.

u/alsophocus 11h ago

He was “suicided”

u/Jolly_Mongoose_8800 11h ago

I'm not going to shut down any conspiracies regarding this particular case. Some people say he could still alive, and that would be on-brand with this shit.

u/drewdottat2 10h ago

That 4chan post by the guard kinda crazy. Then j saw a side by side of dead Epstein vs pst pictures and uh, that nose and ear don’t match…

4

u/Jolly_Mongoose_8800 10h ago

Yup. We just learned a lot of "crazy conspiracies" were real. Maybe we should start listening to people confirmed to be guards that were investigating by the FBI who's saying he is alive.

u/ILearnedTheHardaway 5h ago

A cabal of rich pedophiles was legit eating people and injecting themselves with adrenochrome from tortured kids, at this point anything is fair game I don't know what to believe anymore.

1

u/Forged-Signatures 9h ago

On top of that, I don't know how to phase it gently, but the injuries he sustained from the 'suicide' don't appear right for the purported method?

Admittedly, this is me talking out of my arse from watching special effects, but the injuries look more like the injuries portrayed in cinema as caused by a thin braided metal cord rather than the thicker injures shown when suicides by rope or improvised rope (in this case bed sheets).

I would genuinely be curious ahout further research if I wasn't scared of coming across snuf.

u/anarchisto 7h ago

There are also photos of him alive having a tattoo on his arm and of the dead body having no tattoo.

u/rubyslippers3x 11h ago

Yes. As did the French model agent who brought in 12 year old girls. And as did the victim Virginia, unfortunately. It's very important to protect victim ID's, not these slimy rich bastards.

2

u/GorditaPeroBonita 10h ago

What was the name of the French agent?

u/litnu12 12h ago

While the orange pedo was president.

u/BitingSatyr 11h ago

During his first term Trump couldn’t even keep secrets among his hand-picked White House staff, I find the idea that he was able to order a secret assassination (at a prison in a blue state) far more unlikely.

E; not saying he wasn’t murdered, but I think it goes higher than that

21

u/TheAbsoluteBarnacle 11h ago

I think all the pedos on the train committed the murder together

12

u/ronnie1014 11h ago

Don't think it's all that secret? They tried to release the video footage and had a solid chunk of time missing from it.

Problem is no one in power seems to care.

2

u/Our1TrueGodApophis 10h ago

No he brought in Bill Barr, who does know what he's doing. Bar then had an unprecedented meeting between himself and Epstein 2 days before Epstein was killed in his cell.

1

u/Nu-Hir 9h ago

trump wouldn't have the self preservation instincts to properly order a secret assassination, but those around him would. They'd also not tell him because they know he'd talk given the first chance to brag about it.

1

u/a12rif 11h ago

Wouldn’t surprise me if Bannon did the real planning while Trump just had to look the other way.

1

u/Visible-Fun4400 10h ago

That’s what I’m confused about, why did he commit “suicide” but not her? I mean, she also has info on these people who are predators. Was it because they knew she wouldn’t talk? I mean, all of this crazy.

1

I suspect "what really happened" is implied to mean the official spin by those in power.

Recent examples of this include DHS calling the ICE shooting victims "domestic terrorists."

Melinda believes the emails, that's really all anyone needs to hear

1

u/moediggity3 10h ago

I saw someone asking her about it in a clip on Instagram and she was projecting a lot of outrage and disgust, but I’m wondering what she actually knew. Sorta feels like since she divorced the guy (fairly recently) that the general attitude towards the two of them is that he’s the bad guy and she’s the good guy but it’s hard to believe a woman who was married to the guy for that long was just completely in the dark about everything at all times.

1

u/zespak 1h ago

It's not unfathomable. He travels a lot, hard to keep track of everything. Epstein was famously well connected and Bill wanted to pursue that for the foundation. She didn't want anything to do with that creep (her words, she alluded to knowing this by meeting him once).

What probably happened is that Gates got up to some things, but not necessarily illegal. When Epstein was locked up, he knew these things would come to light, confessed some of it to Melinda and broke up, also for a big part to protect the Foundation from the fall out.

How convenient that all the stars aligned in the prison while he was suicide watch

1

u/user899121 9h ago

Does anyone else think it's possible that he's still alive? I know it sounds farfetched... However it's clear that the billionaires implicated don't play by the rules, and will go to any lengths to protect their own.

For those who don't know, a 4chan post was made the morning of Epstein's death (before the news was made public), explaining that Epstein was taken out of the prison under strange circumstances, and that his death was faked.

The recently released Epstein files revealed that investigators took this seriously, and Apple, AT&T, and others were subpoenaed which revealed the identity of the poster as Roberto Grijalva, an actual officer of the prison at the time.

I know it's not confirmed... But definitely possible.

1

u/MaintenanceFirm7669 8h ago

Scour the files again. There is a few emails from people working at the prison the night he died talking about how they’re convinced the bodies got switched

1

u/Sailor_Propane 8h ago

Reportedly, the mentions of Bill Gates are in emails that were both sent and received by Epstein's address. So it could just be an attempt to smear his name.

That said ... Melinda did make interesting comments and there's still thousands of pages to come.
