We know it's bad. All we had to do is notice how desperate Trump has been to keep this buried.

It's going to be fun finding out what it is that he did exactly.

[-] PhilipTheBucket@quokk.au 116 points 1 month ago

He's already been proved in court to have committed rape, and very credibly accused of having raped a 13-year-old.

I'm not saying that what's in the files is not even worse. But what's already in the public record is already enough and then some.

[-] tburkhol@lemmy.world 55 points 1 month ago

My favorite conspiracy is that he & Epstein have been trafficking girls, young women, and even boys, and using the product to blackmail GOP leadership into "supporting" him. How many times since 2015 have you asked yourself, "What does Trump have on [X]?" after a private meeting and abrupt policy flip? Blackmail material is useless once it's public.

[-] Hawke@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago

That’s like… one of my least favorite conspiracies. You have odd preferences.

[-] Zachariah@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago

Yeah, my favorite is that Jim Morrison agreed to fake his death to get the US government off his back for how his music fueled counter culture at the time. He laid low for a little, and then re-emerged as his new persona, Glen Danzig, the leader of the horror punk band, The Misfits.

[-] Hawke@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

For me it’s the Gunpowder Plot but probably only because it failed.

Enron is a pretty good one too, since it resulted in the collapse of one of these shitty megacorps.

Most conspiracies are just depressing shit though like the Reichstag fire and the Business Plot.

At least MK Ultra gave us some wild stories.

[-] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Enron is a pretty good one too

My favorite conspiracy theory is that the NBA draft lottery is rigged. People always say "oh no it couldn't possibly be rigged because it's overseen by the accounting firm Ernst & Young". It used to be overseen by the accounting firm Arthur Andersen until they got busted aiding and abetting the Enron scam.

Spoiler - he was actively involved in trafficking kids, not just raping them. To such a degree it might as well have been called the Trump Files. A lot of the trafficking went through Mara Lago, and a lot of the girls were picked from the international beauty pageants he used to run, by Trump himself.

There ya go, do with this information what you will. Think it will budge the evangelical Christian support? I don’t.

I doubt we will until after he and his fellow shitheads that are in it, are dead. His taxes were never formally released. He's in a lose-lose situation if he releases them, because they're going to be very bad.

I'd rather LOSE ALL MY HEALTHCARE AND FOOD then to Allow Trump to be found GUILTY of RAPING LITTLE CHILDREN!

-Literally EVERY SINGLE REPUBLICAN VOTER!

[-] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 23 points 1 month ago

I’d rather LOSE ~~ALL MY~~ EVERYONE'S HEALTHCARE AND FOOD ~~then~~ than to Allow Trump to be found GUILTY of RAPING LITTLE CHILDREN!

Fixed it for you.

[-] wunami@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

"then" is incredibly accurate for the spelling and grammar level of MAGA peons though.

He was quite obviously a trafficker and a child rapist. How do these people get through a day?

Release the Trump/Epstein files

[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 32 points 1 month ago

Meanwhile, Shuster says “more than 100+ Republicans” are preparing to side with Democrats on a bipartisan discharge petition led by Reps. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) and Thomas Massie (R-Ky.). The petition, which would force a vote to release the Epstein documents, is just one signature away from success.

So we might even get to see it.

[-] Wilco@lemmy.zip 14 points 1 month ago

These will never be seen. This is the kind of stuff people get assassinated over ... Likely people already have been assassinated over it.

[-] CoolCat@lemmy.world 20 points 1 month ago

I know of at least one person who's been assassinated over this.

[-] Wilco@lemmy.zip 12 points 1 month ago

Does his last name start with an "E" by chance?

[-] jumjummy@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

This is the guy, he knows too much!

[-] I_am_10_squirrels@beehaw.org 8 points 1 month ago

Epstein didn't kill himself

[-] AlexLost@lemmy.world 31 points 1 month ago

So they are just getting up to speed on what the rest of us have known for years now. Cool. Do something about it.

[-] atro_city@fedia.io 25 points 1 month ago

Just fucking release them. Stop teasing.

[-] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 19 points 1 month ago

How can it be worse than we all thought?

Did they honestly think he was only in the files thousands of times (I assume it’s that high since they had that many agents redacting his name) just for being best friends with the pedophile running a massive human trafficking ring?

If they’re drinking their own koolaid they’re fucked.

This is Trump's DOJ and reps from Trump's party reporting this?

MAGA is all about fire hoses of horror and disinformation. If conservative-owned, left-leaning mainstream media is reporting on this and info is being attributed to assumed loyalists, then there is something WAY worse going on or about to happen that isn't being reported, isn't there?

At this point, I can't tell if I need to take off my tin-foil hat or if Rowdy Roddy just nut-smashed some glasses on me. Good lord, I need a nap.

[-] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 month ago

No need for tin foil hats, it's really bad in those files.

“A few GOP house members say they’ve heard from FBI/DOJ contacts that the Epstein files (with copies in different agencies) are worse than Michael Wolff’s description of Epstein photos showing Trump with half naked teenage girls,” Shuster wrote.

That comment points to an earlier interview with Trump biographer Michael Wolff, who told the Daily Beast in October that he had personally seen “about a dozen Polaroid snapshots” of Trump and Epstein. Wolff said the photos showed Trump with “several topless young women on his lap,” and that Epstein “pulled the photos out of a safe and spread them out like a deck of cards” while Wolff was visiting. According to the author, Epstein wanted him to write a book about his life.

If that sounds incriminating, Shuster’s report suggests the DOJ’s files could be even worse.

[-] fartographer@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Yes, but the fact that every time we hear about something unimaginably horrible and shocking, it turns out that something even more horrible and shocking was happening in the background.

Which is why I say with paranoia, "tin foil hat's saying there's something worse than the thing that's worse than Polaroids of Trump with naked children."

[-] W3dd1e@lemmy.zip 11 points 1 month ago

I checked r/conservative.

No panic is spreading.

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 6 points 1 month ago

the russian mods suppress any news critical of trump, or any that does not adhere to russian backed propaganda, like they did with luigi, and remember when trump was railing on putin, and putin retaliated by using his propaganda machine to post all epstein related news against him.

Are the conservatives ok?

[-] Valmond@lemmy.world 10 points 4 weeks ago

Something along these lines?

[-] titanicx@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 weeks ago

Is that Donald j Trump, current president of the United States, and Jeffrey r Epstein, Best friend and fellow child rapist?

[-] Atlas_@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Government is shut down anyways - best ever time to make a new one?

[-] Wilco@lemmy.zip 10 points 1 month ago

This is actually the Republican plan.

[-] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

It's lots of people's plan. Nearly every actual human dislikes the corporate-owned government, and it's been an oligarchy for ages.

A successful revolution will need the support of many people who were right about the problem but wrong about the solution.

Panic should be spreading through Republicans and Democrats. If it's not then we know this is all just marketed drama and will be used to the advantage of rich people.

America isn't something you should hand your life over to with trust.

Honestly, that idea goes for other nations too... But America is clearly infected by darkness/crime/immorality and politics will not save it as long as they keep allowing business and capitalism to mold and set their citizens on paths that lead to dead ends. The individuality they sell you is marketed bs. The lifestyles and narrow ideations of freedom are bullshit. You people are human beings.... Human beings should be living above that manipulation.

America doesn't give more of a fuck about you than hr at a ghetto McDonald's. That same bullshit ideology is scaled up and that's America. It's not about humanity. America is business and so much hr style bullshit is manipulating people to not quick the job.

It's time to quit the job... Aka the American branded identity.

There will be marketed fear against this reality and understanding. And it up to you to get in tune with what is actually right as human, not as an American or an under values and underpaid worker.

Always put humanity above everything. Otherwise it's all just gang wars based of feelings and ego.

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 4 points 1 month ago

its probably because hes represent probably half the visitors there, probably epsteins most frequent client.

[-] crunch@piefed.europe.pub 3 points 1 month ago

He's probably a coconspirator

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 8 points 1 month ago

most likely he used his beauty paegent as a pipeline to epstein, erika kirk was in one of them.
