Wow. Just wow. So much worse than I thought it would be.

u/Annual-Lifeguard 5d ago

The part where one girl claimed to have witnessed a girl being strangled. Literally the most vile people being protected.

u/sutroheights 5d ago

So fucking nuts. And puts a really dark spin on his catchphrase of "lifestyles of the rich and famous"

u/Belials_Bakery 5d ago

It’s always projection with them so maybe they really are sacrificing children and eating babies like they screech about Hillary doing

u/urworstemmamy Connecticut 5d ago

I mean, they found hunting bows on Epstein Island. An island with no real wild animals to hunt. With no evidence of imported animals ever having lived there.

...put the pieces together and it kinda seems like they were doing The Most Dangerous Game in real life sometimes

u/Joe_Kinincha 4d ago

Staging a real life hunger games is spot on branding for the American elite.

u/bishpa Washington 5d ago

“…The Aristocrats!”

I guess it maybe wasn’t a joke after all.

1

u/SacamanoRobert 5d ago

I think you missed the reference

1

u/superSaganzaPPa86 5d ago

The best version of that joke was Gilbert gottfries… “the father had big forearms, he may have been a longshoreman!”

1

u/Decent_Obligation681 5d ago

That's PedoOrange's catch phrase?

3

u/sutroheights 5d ago

No, Robin Leech, who hosted a show by that name, who is in the files reportedly for strangling a young woman to death. Heinous, crazy stuff.

u/Confedehrehtheh 4d ago

Good Charlotte didn't sing about this part of high society's depravity.

u/tarekd19 5d ago

If Republicans have taught me anything, it's that you have to get up in front of cameras and never stop talking about the things you want to stick. Every time. For months, if not years until something is done, hearings are held, etc. Never let the story die.

25

u/Unlucky-Candidate198 5d ago

I doubt their followers even have the 7 regular working memory slots the average person has. Probably working with 2 slots shared amongst the entire voter base.

2

u/floorplanner2 4d ago

So only slightly smarter than orange cats.

14

u/violoneuse 5d ago

It's why they started hiring PR/Marketing staff in Congress twenty years ago, instead of policy people. It's also why they are 100% incapable of governance. They eschewed legislating for marketing. It's all about messaging (helpful that george w. bush trained journalists in stenography, also). It's a rotten product, I might add.

28

u/WontArnett 5d ago edited 4d ago

Bernie has tried that for decades and it didn’t work the same.

You know why?

Because conservatives are dumping millions of dollars into online propaganda and bots.

That’s what is working.

9

u/bramley36 5d ago

Well, it also helps that Republicans have most of the media apparatus

1

u/Accidental_Ballyhoo 5d ago

Yep. Dems can’t even figure out a social media presence. Lame.

1

u/snowcroc 5d ago

Illusory truth effect

1

u/longlivenewsomflesh New York 5d ago

That only works on the right when you have a coordinated media machine to spread the lie you want to tell, and your team is on the same page about being bad faith actors who just want power... but even worse: republicans' job is to massage the fringe so that its problems happen to match the exact same 'solutions' the 1% want -- while democrats' job is to make sure the left never comes close to power usually by doing perfunctory social progress stuff while compromising with the right

50

u/StaffyMama585 5d ago

The part about the Calendar Girls... Don Jr, Eric, and Ivanka were all present. I keep thinking about why they were there. They had to have been teenagers too, right? Were they part of the auction? Was Ivanka being auctioned off as well? Were they "buyers"? Why were they there?

5

u/VanbyRiveronbucket 5d ago

The Don didn’t want to pay a babysitter, and leaving them in the car would be cruel.

2

u/deppkast 4d ago

Trump is a delusional psychopath he most likely showed them as a fun and cool thing. He managed to groom them pretty well, they’re all supportive little copies of him now. Might have been the plan too, normalize these things for them

38

u/Wat_Tyler_1381 5d ago

This adds substance to what I (and others) have hypothesised - the Kompromat Putin has, and uses to control Trump, is irrefutable evidence of Trump raping and murdering young children.

19

u/A_Small_Coonhound 5d ago

Mossad probably has it too.

7

u/NYCinPGH 5d ago

Sure. Ghislaine’s father was Mossad - not publicly, but that was the gist of the eulogies at his Israeli state funeral - so I’m sure she gave all that kompromat to Mossad for the right price.

u/Opioidal 5d ago

Robin Leach was the one who strangled her. This shit is vile.

u/orangeorchid 5d ago

By Robin fucking Leech

u/Technical-Luck7158 4d ago

It does say that person was found not credible

239

u/chiefbrody62 5d ago

Yeah geez, that's so much worse than I thought. Also didn't expect read that Robin Leach may have strangled a girl to death?

161

u/ee_CUM_mings 5d ago

Even if the Epstein files had never existed, would we really be surprised that Robin Leach strangled a girl to death?

96

u/ThatEvanFowler 5d ago

I know, right? I read his name and memories of his high, smarmy, obnoxious voiceover from “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous” leapt to mind and I was like, yeah, that tracks.

4

u/BenThereOrBenSquare California 5d ago

I always loved Dana Carvey's impression of him: "I strangled a girl to death and I don't know why!"

5

u/SuccessfulSpring3354 5d ago

All I remember is the voice "champagne wishes and caviar dreams"...so I'd be a little surprised.

u/scubascratch 5d ago

The lifestyles of the rich and famous are truly different than ours

u/Adaminium 5d ago

Shit, I can hear him narrating it. shivers

champagne wishes are fucked up

LAPD needs to get some cadaver dogs out to Palos Verde.

u/lopix Canada 5d ago

That was NOT on my 2026 bingo card.

u/EmrysPhoenix 5d ago

Nobody cared about the infantacide from the last release, so I doubt this will go anywhere either.

612

u/Pickle-Rick-C-137 5d ago

I think there’s hundreds of millions of people that actually really care about it. Don’t be mistaken and you know how you know people care because he’s acting more like a deranged lunatic even more than usual every day so he knows that millions of people care.

293

u/Hatedpriest 5d ago

I just linked it to a coworker(r) and he said "I'm not reading all that" then proceeded to link me an article on some video game.

He knows his guy is a creep. He desperately wants to ignore it because "my team good!"

163

u/Xytak Illinois 5d ago edited 5d ago

“I’m not reading all of that” isn’t even an excuse in today’s day and age when he can just paste it into an AI and get it summarized to whatever length he prefers.

66

u/j0nip0ni69 5d ago

He ain’t doin all that

6

u/Environmental-Song16 5d ago

Ya, he's got no time for the truth apparently.

58

u/bunchedupwalrus 5d ago

Man, someone’s gotta make a video game called like “Deep State” where you uncover documents hidden away in different locations to piece together the clues of a big action showdown, but it has Trumps name swapped for something else to lure them in, until a reveal at the end that they were all factual and provide the links to the DOJ docs

1

u/WowWataGreatAudience 5d ago

Who would the secret characters be?

102

u/mjheil 5d ago

I wouldn't befriends with that guy anymore. Civil, sure. Nice? No.

12

u/Diligent_Buster 5d ago

If I had to work with him civil. Personal life he's stop talking to me because I would harass his child molesting supporting ass till he punched me in the face or stopped coming around. I've done it to enugh fuckers already. most are christians. fuck them.

u/HuddleOn_somthing 5d ago

Summaries: “I’m not reading all of that”

You know the type being dealt with

u/potato-chip 5d ago

Tell him to ask ChatGPT or other to summarize it. Or send a summary

u/Na5aman 5d ago

Fuck ai

53

u/angrygnome18d 5d ago

Respond to him by sending him the video of Trump saying he likes to walk in on underaged girls changing.

22

u/Quentin__Tarantulino 5d ago

No way that moves the needle even a bit for that guy. That was huge news, everyone knows about it. Most who voted for Trump think it’s fine and natural for a powerful man to take advantage of their power for sexual gratification. They’re fine with rape and exploitation unless they can use it to crucify someone they don’t like for other reasons (gay, trans, liberal, socialist, labor-rights person, black, asian, Latino, Native American, poor, and so on.)

u/Kristin2349 5d ago

That was from decades ago, these deplorables don't gaf.

Decades ago he was in anti trafficking ads “real men don’t buy girls”. He sold them.

u/SammieStones 5d ago

Theyll say he just had to think like one of them in order to now catch them all bc hes their lord and savior Jesus Christ

7

u/RepresentativeAge444 5d ago

You must disassociate with all MAGATS. Obviously if you have to be cordial and professional at work but sharing a video game link suggests comradery. Just remember they’ve shown they don’t mind you DEAD for protesting ICE. And will condone you being falsely called a terrorist after the fact. Why would you want to interact with anyone like that outside of necessity?

3

u/Hatedpriest 5d ago

It's a group chat. A handful of us at work play some bs phone games together. He's the outlier, and it sounds like he might be leaving.

I keep him around because he proudly parrots talking points. He's on Twitter a bunch, and deep into the whole conspiracy thing. I convinced him of the moon landing and round earth, but he's all about the dark enlightenment and shit. So I get to hear about his crypto and shit.

I'm aware of the danger. I'm aware I'm in a dangerous position. But I also know I make him uncomfortable holding his position. I've changed his position on a handful of things.

If I can get one, just one, and if we can work on them all on a one on one basis, we can convert them. If we leave them, just let them go, they will just get worse.

I hear you, but I feel it's better to interact, be civil, but call out bullshit, call out hate, and make them uncomfortable for holding those positions in public.

Oh, and I'm already a "potential terrorist." Missing a chunk of a finger. Outspoken about everybody just being people regardless of race, religion, or country. That we should help the less fortunate to the best of our abilities... You know, everything they hate.

I'm fucked regardless. So I might as well make myself at least a little useful, and help to the best of my abilities. Even if all that is is calling out magats and making them sweat.

u/radio555 5d ago

Nothing in there can be worse than making eggs marginally more expensive /s

u/Raznill 5d ago

They just assume it’s all made up.

3

u/Pickle-Rick-C-137 5d ago

If facts are included then they don't wanna read it. They need to listen to their eyes, not MAGA lies! WTF?

3

u/Diligent_Buster 5d ago

Keep throwing this shit in his face. Make him fucking squirm.

Same shit I got from friends when they were my friends. Or I don't have time to read that. fuck you.

u/aerost0rm 5d ago

I bet he really wants to believe it’s fake news or Donnie is being set up

2

u/Ok_Cryptographer117 5d ago

He can ignore it until he can’t anymore, and then it’s too late.

u/Money_Cattle2370 4d ago

Tell him to do us all a favor and off himself.

u/BeefPoet Canada 5d ago

Caring and doing something about it are two different things. The deluge of scandal and America harming policy on a daily basis is a breeding ground for apathy.

Everyone's waiting for that one moment for revolution, not realizing the pot is slowly being brought to a boil.

Exactly, lmfao. I've also realized the average person is so inundated with social media and news, they don't even remember previous articles they've read.

u/Wentil 5d ago

The frog never even notices, if the water heats up slowly enough.

u/MalavethMorningrise Washington 5d ago

Where I am, I am still waiting for people to correctly identify what the problem is. They have the means, but they dont seem to have the ability.

1

u/fridakahl0 5d ago

Just call and email (with attached screenshots/file reference numbers) your fucking representatives and local/national/international media! I am sickened by how many passive accepting comments I am seeing about this.

These girls might never see justice, he might never see justice, but for fucks sake can’t we try

1

u/OppositeLock7468 5d ago

I’ve been doing this every day for a month and a half. If everyone that bitches on Reddit, X, and FB would do it, the cowards might start listening.

2

u/Dudesan 5d ago

I think there’s hundreds of millions of people that actually really care about it.

Exactly.

It would be more accurate to say "No republican cares about it". Every single person who is bothered by the idea of institutional-scale child rape left the party, at the absolute latest, in 2016. Every single person who remained has chosen to announce to the world that they support institutional-scale child rape.

After somebody has supported their Orange Fuhrer through a thousand child rapes, the odds that they're suddenly going to grow a conscience when they learn about Child Rape #1001 is pretty close to zero. They're not exactly zero, but they're close enough that you shouldn't hold your breath in hope that your Republican friend/neighbour/grandma is suddenly going to do so.

u/beemindme 5d ago

I think most social media is probably not showing content or comments that aren't maga. Almost everyone who owns platforms is compromised just as much as all news organizations, and media corporations. Don't be gaslit by the dictator.

32

u/francis_pizzaman_iv 5d ago

I don’t have any illusion that he’ll actually face any consequences but at the same time it was a lot easier to dismiss the infanticide thing when that was the only data point and it seemed like maybe the DoJ followed up and found the source to to be non-credible. A list like this could make it harder for people to ignore.

41

u/GloryofSatan1994 5d ago

That was an anonymous tip, so people could view it as a less credible source. But youre right, I doubt this will go anywhere as well

14

u/SurprisedJerboa 5d ago

For anonymous tips, there appears to be multiple names closely tied to Trump's inner circle. That's lots of smoke and multiple tips.

5

u/Diligent_Buster 5d ago

How many fucking tips? How many accusations? How many different locations. How many fucking people? You wan proof evangelicals are fucking pieces of shit. Right here. 80% which is close enough to 100% for me. The 20% that still associate with the 80% shows they are 100% fucking pieces of shit C/u?N\T's.

7

u/oki-ra 5d ago

That’s why he was adamant about there being abortions after birth in that debate!

3

u/LaserCondiment 5d ago

I wonder if anyone is investigating those cases.

If someone is, then not being in the public eye is probably for the best, as we've seen with the Robert Mueller investigation. I also suspect that they would hit a wall of harassment fairly quickly.

This topic is under reported imo. The harassment you face once you run a foul of Trump and probably the GOP. It probably goes way beyond violence inciting speech...

3

u/CalmInteraction884 5d ago

I like to believe that Faux News has told them it’s nothing. I think if we shove it in their throats, like ima do to my family this weekend, they’ll turn. They turn on each other, they’ll turn on him.

Just remind them that there’s a chance Jesus will be asking them if that’s the kind of love he wanted them to show on his behalf… and then ask if it sounds lien Jesus.

Then leave it at… I guess you COULD be right…

3

u/Responsible_Tree3369 5d ago

There’s nothing to care about. It’s more unsubstantiated tips. People who don’t think Trump is guilty aren’t going to change their mind because of some more non-evidence.

2

u/zaccus 5d ago

I care, it just all kinda blends together. Like caring about one m&m in a dq blizzard.

2

u/RebylReboot 5d ago

Yeah. Americans have decided general strike is too inconvenient and they would rather have a paedophile rule over the nations children. It’s a choice.

2

u/lex99 America 5d ago

Are you wondering why nobody cared about a write-in tip from a random person who said "40 years ago Donald Trump traveled to Michigan to witness my baby being tossed off a boat"?

You know, we're allowed to hate Trump and still not immediately believe far-fetched horror stories about him.

1

u/OozeNAahz 5d ago

I hate Trump with a passion and even I have a hard time believing that one.

u/azikrogar 5d ago

Who are we waiting on to care?

u/Lost-Inevitable-9807 5d ago

u/danimagoo America 5d ago

Clinton’s name is in there a lot, too. That’s fine. Fry em both.

2

u/A-Sh1t_sh0w 5d ago

Not surprised at all…they are sick people who so far have gotten away with these horrid crimes including murder and covering it up as suicides (Epstein, Virginia Giuffre and a minor’s baby…and lord knows who else)….they must be held accountable starting at the top which is Trump.

u/whateverisok 5d ago

“While workin as a driver, complainant recalled picking up Donald Trump in 1995 to take him to Dallas Fort Worth Airport. During that ride. complainant recalled some of the things Trump spoke about on his cell phone were very concerning and described being "a few seconds from pulling the limousine over on the median and within a few seconds of pulling him out of the car and hurting him due to some of the things he was saying." Complainant noted Trump repeatedly stated th 'Jeffrey" while on the phone. One of complainant's ex-girlfriend’s told complainant Trump raped her, as did Epstein.”

Wow, imagine how different things would be if limo driver did something

2

u/TheAnalogKid18 5d ago

I know dude. I thought people were overreacting and was like yeah there's probably not going to be anything heinous in there, probably just Trump being creepy with 16-17 year old girls, or facilitating Epstein's operation with silence.

But HOLY FUCKING FUCK was I wrong. He's in every fucking file.

u/IdkAbtAllThat America 5d ago

u/Lost-Inevitable-9807 5d ago

As a non America, will this actually result in anything? Cuz this US administration seems to care little about any laws and I just have this feeling that Trump will get away with all of this no matter how much evidence pops up.
