This is some quality, if you haven't see/heard this yet. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jan/13/trump-middle-finger-michigan Donald Trump gave someone the middle finger on Tuesday, reportedly responding to shouts admonishing him as a “pedophile protector” as he toured a Michigan Ford plant. He also said "******** you" to that guy a couple times.
It just strikes me that this domestic terrorist is probably the first person to give Trump a fully honest opinion since election night.
OK, so this account of child sexual abuse perpetrated by some well-known Republicans, including Donnie, has been bouncing around the intertubes the past few days. It sounds so fantastical that I don't want to believe it. OTOH the details are truly so insane that they'd be hard to even make up. MAJOR TRIGGER WARNING Mods if it is too out-of-bounds feel free to remove. Mod Note: I don't have a bluesky account, so I can't see it.

A couple things about the interviews without going into triggering details that I will comment on. The CSA survivor is very detached when talking about the instances which leads me to believe them(prefers they/them pronouns). As a CSA trauma survivor myself you dissociate quite a bit when you talk about the events. I also believe survivors. They have been trying to tell this story for years and has never been sued. They are also a military veteran. They tell a story about their foster parents maybe trying to create an accident that lead to a police report which is why they think they were able to survive post abuse. The interviewer is confident that there are plenty of police reports, CPS reports, that do corroborate some of the details. Their adopted father is a well known figure within the Epstein apparatus and was mentioned in Virginia Giuffre's recent book. The interviewer constantly kind of misinterprets what he says on purpose and everytime he corrects her and goes back to his original story. Very authentic sounding. Some of the accusations could be easily provable with more access to information. For example, Donald Trump's medical records. The doctor who had been his primary care Doctor for the last forty or so years specialized in a branch of medicine that would make sense given an account that comes up in the interviews. There are explosive specific accounts of President Trump in their accounts. It's the most explosive allegation specifying 47 that I've seen or heard thus far. They name certain names(Lindsay Graham, Clarence Thomas, and Jim Jordan), but mentions that if they had abused them that it wasn't noteworthy enough for them to remember. But they are adamant that those people were present during these parties. They make a point to only try to align accusations with evidence. Finally they apparently testified in that September session last fall that led to Nancy Mace leaving in tears. Take it all for what it's worth. Once again as a fellow CSA survivor, I believe victims. I believe them. Don Lemon is the most prominent name picking up the story at this point.
The dates don’t make sense. Riley was adopted in 1977 and claims to have been abused from ages 9-13. Plus, snuff films are an urban legend.
1) Jonathon Ross just made an amateur one last week. With that being said, I've never been on the Dark Web. So I can't really say I disagree or agree with snuff films being urban legend. 2) Great catch. Trump's medical records which we will never see would be able to prove the accuracy of the allegations. Harold Bernstein I believe took over for his father in 1980, so either way not related to the incident. I could see how it looked like I was implying that. It is interesting that Trump took all of his medical records (instead of just getting copies like a normal human) breaking NY state law during his first term from Bernstein. It's also super coincidental that Bernstein passed away at 73, two days after the failed insurrection on January 8th, 2021. I believe the victim. The stuff about Trump's Doctor? Just speculation, Trump is a petty reflexive tyrant that doesn't care about laws. There could very well be nothing damning in his medical records. Trump hasn't sued Sascha and he's been making these allegations for quite some time.
Good analysis and sorry to hear about CSA. The interviewer is working with him to verify some of the facts like who in the Army knew about the videos (he named a few) and also when his abusive step mother died. Said that his dad was all pumped when Clarence Thomas got on the SC. He stood out as the only AA among the rednecks and rich people. Saw a note that he's now out of the country so maybe in Canada. The interviews took place in summer 2025.
Two points. 1. Are you comparing the murder of Renee Good to the incident described by Sascha? You’re new here and I’m trying to figure you out, and that comparison is as terrible as anything I’ve seen by drive by trolls. 2. There might be snuff films, and there might be a colony of Neanderthals hiding in the mountains of Basque Country. But that’s hardly a basis for believing reports of Sasquatch. Take good care of yourself
Today I learned that G. Gordon Liddy’s son Raymond has been convicted for child pornography. Corrupt ex congressman Duncan Hunter, who was pardoned by Trump, is working on getting Liddy Jr a pardon too.
Sorry you had to experience that. I hope you are living okay. Also, to all, having worked with CSA who were still teens/early 20s, it does a lot to help the survivor to believe their story. It will be messy at first, and details may never be concrete, but believing them helps the healing. Don't be literal here. I have somebody in my family who believes they were sexually abused as a child, can give the location because it is known to them based on frequent visits to that place (not just the home, but the specific room), but can only piece together the time based on other information, such as when the family stopped going to that location. This person has given ages of abuse as a certainty, but other parts of their story make the years a bigger question. Yet, they were very specific on what happened, and it only came out in therapy. So, while Riley might be able to provide specific years and ages, they may not be literal and are likely pieced together from other information. Specially since they are 45 years ago or so. I've come across reports of those who use to moderate FB posts and those who have experience on the Dark Web who have said that such films do exist. Not like what is described, but very much talked about as the killers see their victims as disposable and akin to property. Now, how widely are they distributed? That is more up for question to me. But I'm along the lines of them actually existing. Now, I will say that what does give me pause to this story is how this came to light. Who is this person who has the audio? How did she get them? What experience does she have with this type of reporting? Or any type of investigative or police or sex abuse reporting?
Thank you both for that. I believe the worst of it is over. Therapy is a beautiful thing. The anger has mostly been replaced by sadness, but understanding beats everything. I'm excited for the future outside of the looming threats of the current geopolitical situation.
The bolded part especially tracks. This is true. You have little snippets that you can piece together a timeline. Without getting into too much detail it be might like, I watched this movie on VHS and I knew that it was relatively new so I could say it started around this time. But you don't really know things like duration and have brief memories of what things entailed. It's usually location based. The odder the location the more likely you can recall. Just speaking from my experience. And in my experience? Laws were broken. I know who broke the laws. They know they broke the laws. And there's pretty much nothing I can do to prove it. It's really sad. To the questions at the bottom, my understanding is that they have been trying to tell their story for years on the internet. I've seen twitter/facebook posts from as recently as 2021. I think someone just finally decided to say hey, let's give them a shot. Let's try to back up as much of their story as we can. I think the connection to a known figure in the ring with the ability to be backed up by police reports and a lengthy CPS rap sheet makes sense. I buy that the family was trying to get them to drown in the Ocean in an accident. And assuming the police report exists that would prevent his family from trying to have another accident happen. At that point the perpetrators could just bank on most men never coming forward about abuse because of cultural reasons. I think the Virginia book really makes these connections more credible as their adoptive father is listed as being a PI for Epstein in that book. A kind of narrative is starting to take root. Once again, this is all speculation. Less than 1 percent of the files have been released. Just putting information out from the void into this void. I do believe them though. It tracks with my experiences the way he talks about memories.
https://apnews.com/article/epstein-files-justice-department-trump-ed743598c320b94bd9d91631618678d9 Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said the department was releasing more than 3 million pages of documents in the latest Epstein disclosure, as well as more than 2,000 videos and 180,000 images. The files, which were being posted to the department’s website, include some of the several million pages of records that officials said were withheld from an initial release of documents in December. I'll wait for those covering this to give more feedback on what is there, and what is still yet to have been released.
OMG...I have no words. That's all I'm gonna say - shots of the files are all over social media. Really thinking about the victims here - bashing Trump comes later
More Epstein files released, link killed shortly afterwards.

In my cynicism I'm wondering if they're doing a big dump and, like before, some things will then be removed. They might hope by dumping millions they'll be able to hide the orange felon's mentions better and then remove them before people are able to find them or download them.
I saw this it took a ten second search. It was real. Made me think they were finally throwing him to the wolves. What incompetent people.
Based on the little I've seen, I hope they are calling in archaeologists and forensic specialists to start looking for bodies "in the back nine" on Epstein Island (and I'd be looking at Mar a Lago as well, just to be sure).
Hence my comment of waiting for those doing the analysis to speak. I'm assuming there are going to be a lot of things uploaded, some by mistake, and names not redacted that should (already saw one that I think should have been redacted, though not sure). And considering how much info is being put out, there is going to be a lot of info to go through.
And considering the demographic of the victims, I'm assuming some of them would easily have just gone straight up missing without much of a search.
