    Burning Questions about the Jeffrey Epstein Scandal

    Even by the standards of stomach-turning celebrity criminal scandals, the bits of information about multi-millionare Jeffrey Epstein and allegations of an underage sex-trafficking ring are utterly bizarre, pointing to something perhaps even bigger and worse going on. Just the reports out this morning prompt at least ten big questions.

    One: How did Jeffrey Epstein make his fortune in the first place? One claim is a massive Ponzi scheme.

    Two: Could Epstein really have been connected to some sort of intelligence service? In yesterday’s press conference, labor secretary Alex Acosta offered a weird, vague, contradictory, meandering answer when asked about this. If Epstein was working for some sort of spy agency, which one? What was the aim, to collect blackmail on prominent figures? Who was being blackmailed, and what did they do?

    Three: Why did the office Manhattan district attorney Cyrus Vance try to keep Epstein from being registered as a top-level sex offender? “A seasoned sex-crimes prosecutor from Mr. Vance’s office argued forcefully in court that Mr. Epstein, who had been convicted in Florida of soliciting an underage prostitute, should not be registered as a top-level sex offender in New York.” The judge denied the request and declared, “I have to tell you, I’m a little overwhelmed because I have never seen a prosecutor’s office do anything like this.”

    Four: After Epstein was labeled a “Level 3 sex offender” — meaning the worst — Epstein was required by law to check in with the NYPD every 90 days. He never checked in at all over an eight-year span. How did that not generate any consequences?

    Five: How did his private island off Saint Thomas get the nickname “Pedophile Island” and how does a rumor like that not get law enforcement to start snooping around?

    Six: Bill Clinton’s public statement about his interactions with Epstein was laughably inaccurate, contracted by contemporaneous media accounts, never mind FAA flight logs. You would think Clinton and those around him would have a well-worn playbook for denying sexual impropriety and criminal behavior by now.

    Seven: Doesn’t this paragraph in deep in a recent article of Vanity Fair seem to bury the lede, as they say in journalism?

    Pecker, he later told me, used to send him articles and issues before they were published so that he and Trump could read them. After the meeting Trump called in Sam Nunberg, then a Trump Organization employee, who saw Pecker leaving Trump’s office. “Michael was sitting in there when I came in, and the issue of the National Enquirer with the pictures of Prince Andrew was on his desk,” Nunberg recalled. “He said not to tell anyone, but that Pecker had just been there and had brought the issue with him. Trump said that Pecker had told him that the pictures of Clinton that Epstein had from his island were worse.” (Cohen, speaking by phone from the Federal Correctional Institution in Otisville, corroborated Nunberg’s version of the events, though he declined to add any additional information about the meeting.)

    So the National Inquirer has pictures of Bill Clinton with Epstein and the women he was using?

    If Trump knew about these photographs, why didn’t he at least leak or hype them during the 2016 campaign?

    And if Clinton really did nothing inappropriate in all of his interactions with Epstein, why didn’t Hillary Clinton’s campaign make a stink about Trump’s past friendship with Epstein, during a campaign where Trump’s unsavory treatment of women was a big issue?

    One aspect of Epstein that no longer has many questions: Is there anyone left who wants to argue that Alexandre Acosta handled the case the way he should have all those years ago?

    A Miami Herald investigative reporter claims that Epstein is worth far less than one Billion dollars.

    Bill, Hillary Clinton booed at Billy Joel concert after singer dedicated song to them
    By Sam Dorman | Fox News

    Watch: Crowd boos Hillary and Bill Clinton at Billy Joel concert
    During his concert at Madison Square Garden, Billy Joel dedicated a song to Bill and Hillary Clinton. The crowd’s cheers were soon joined by audible boos toward the Clintons.

    Bill and Hillary Clinton got a taste of New York's state of mind on Thursday night.

    After the Long Island-born legend dedicated a song to the former first couple and flashed them up on the screen at Madison Square Garden, initial cheers turned to boos from the audience.

    The former first lady has been under scrutiny for years as she criticized President Trump and attempted to lay out the reasons she thought were behind her loss to him in the 2016 election. Former President Bill Clinton, on the other hand, faced fresh criticism surrounding his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, who on Monday was indicted on sex trafficking charges.

    A Clinton spokesperson denied the former president had any knowledge of Epstein's crimes, noting that he took "a total of four trips" with Epstein in 2002 and 2003.

    JEFFREY EPSTEIN HOBNOBBED WITH HOLLYWOOD, MEDIA ELITE DESPITE DIRTY PAST AS REGISTERED SEX OFFENDER

    [​IMG]Video
    "In 2002 and 2003, President Clinton took a total of four trips on Jeffrey Epstein’s airplane: one to Europe, one to Asia, and two to Africa, which included stops in connection with the work of the Clinton Foundation," the statement read.

    An investigative journalist later told Fox News, however, that Clinton wasn't telling the truth about either the flights or his knowledge of Epstein's crimes.

    Journalist Conchita Sarnoff, who first broke the Epstein story back in 2010, says the number of flights isn’t accurate, claiming that Clinton was a guest on Epstein’s planes many more times over a longer period.

    “I know from the pilot logs and these are pilot logs that you know were written by different pilots and at different times that Clinton went, he was a guest of Epstein's 27 times,” she said, adding that “many of those times Clinton had his Secret Service with him and many times he did not.”

    Hillary Clinton similarly encountered speculation over her relationship with Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein, who allegedly sexually assaulted multiple women over years. At the end of 2017, the former presidential candidate condemned Weinstein's alleged behavior and said she was "shocked" to hear about it.

    In June, the couple also caught attention for the underwhelming ticket sales a Broadway depiction of them received — leading to an early end long before its initially-scheduled end date of July 24.

    You seem to be obsessed with people who are no longer in office and won't ever be again while the loser trump is cuddling up to dictators, shunning allies and acting like a school yard bully with his childish name calling and his constant lies and trying to skirt the constitution. What a role model you have, lmao!

    Apparently SPD once again "innocently" misunderstood my (I thought) all-encompassing thread title, and as he has so often done erased my thread without asking me and put this first post into this thread. My thread was meant to simplify things "AS THE WORLD TURNS" on the Clintons over the next several years with current and upcoming investigations and prosecutions of so many Clinton cohorts and inevitably the Clintons. Epstein's pimping for Bill is a minor embarrassment compared to the many separate cases of Clinton Foundation Fraud, the Ukrainian election-rigging, abuse of office as Secretary of State, accepting bribes from over a dozen countries most of which are hostile to the US, failure to register as foreign agents, conspiracy with foreign powers to rig the US Presidential election, paying for the creation and media-spreading of the entirely fake Steele Dossier, secret sex clubs, child trafficking,destroying evidence vital to a federal court case, deliberate stock manipulation by actions of office...

    Since I will be posting many, many details on all these very separate subjects as they enter the courts it seems better for all that I keep it in one thread rather than clutter up other threads and create more threads, but as always, it's up to the mods what they think is best for the forum.

    You mean, he didn't dedicate a song for Donald Trump? I guess you could call Jailhouse Rock devoted to the Trump clan.

    Jeffrey Epstein, the "billionaire" child rapist. He dropped out of college before getting his degree. But a very prestigious private school hired him to teach there. The headmaster of that school, the person who hired him without a teaching degree... was Donald Barr, the father of US Attorney General William Barr.

    Eating lots of bacon doesn't actually make you a member of the family. Common misconception.

    Trump is buddies with a lot of people in jail now.

    And in other corruption news, more Trump cabinet members have already had to resign due to ethical issues than any previous administration ever.

    Gee, just think if we would have had the internet in the 60's...or even when the Clintons were in office. That would've been loads of fun.
