    The earliest instance of that phrase was from 2002 - perhaps there were earlier instances that were lost in a crash at some point.

    The poster was Mel Brennan, which sounds like something he would have posted back in the day. Most of the results for that search phrase were Mel Brennan. Here's the post, edited down to the operative phrase, but anyone can follow the arrow and go read the thread in context if that's the kind of thing they're in to.

    They always project. Always.

    And hasn't it already been reported that one of the accusations against Trump in the files is that he witnessed a young girl's baby being killed right after it was born? I think that was one of the first things to come out in the latest release.

    edit: Here's a mention of it. The baby was reportedly dumped in Lake Michigan

    Kraft, like Belichick, didn't get in the Hall of Fame this year.

    Some mentions of him in the files. Kraft got popped for solicitation at a rub & tug joint near Miami in 2019.

    Kraft is such a MAGA Creep.....As an aside, his son tried to run for Mayor of Bostan and was steamrolled by the current popular mayor Michelle Wu.

    FWIW the son ran as a Democrat. Kraft's friendship with Trump hasn't been a secret so even ignoring his past indiscretions it wouldn't be a surprise for him to show up in the files given that Trump is clearly a main operator in the circle.

    Only Choppy can let God sort them out now (speaking of which why aren't there more bands in the files? A lot of writers, film makers and Broadway types but no Bret Michaels or more pointedly Vince Neil? And why hasn't someone like Paris Hilton said anything yet, when we do have child actors out of Hollywood who have been telling their stories for years?)

    I will say having merely read and seen a small fraction of the files (many of them second-hand through journalistic reporting): in more civilized, rational times, so many of these people would have been guillotined ages ago.

    It's the perpetual impunity of their behavior that is most enraging and sinister. They didn't just commit the most heinous crimes, they talked about them openly, acting as if there would never be any sort of reckoning. For the most part, they have been proven right.

    Nancy Mace and Ron DeSantis have shown up in the files as alleged perpetrators of sexual violence against minors.

    They're getting into the files that don't have plain text stored in them now, ones that are pictures of text, so it's going to keep dripping.

    Honestly I thought there was no way Mike Johnson could be in the files but there is stuff from 2017 2018 so maybe he's in there?

    It's easy to say people have been irresponsible until someone walks the dogs over an island and some golf courses to provide some sort of evidence.

    We have all these files but not much in the way of investigation documents.

    What have they actually done over the last twenty years to investigate? They're the FBI so they certainly would have accessed financial records, obviously they dumped the email, did they do anything beyond that, and did Trump stop forward movement when he became president the first time?

    Related, Trump did a normal presser when signing the stop-gap bill to reopen the government. The Bulwark has some commentary, but I'm really posting about Trump's belittle of Kaitlin Collins.

    https://www.thebulwark.com/p/trumps-gross-attack-on-cnns-kaitlan

    What is absolutely shitty is that when I did a quick google this morning on the story, multiple headlines popped up about Trump telling Collins to smile. That is so trivial. He got asked about the survivors and said she lied and CNN was terrible and blamed her for the failing.

    This clip is less than 10 minutes. A longer version of their conversation is on The Bulwark's YouTube channel.

    "You are logged in as Jeffrey Epstein" :eek:

    Until you posted the link, I'd never heard of "JMail" -- clearly there are things happening on the interwebs I know nothing about. :D

    Both me and the link are saying that right wing influencers are being irresponsible. The link says they are just posting without even doing a minimal amount of research. Basically, he's saying that the person in the emails was slandered and no critical thinking took place. None. Even without doing any investicating, I could see how that just didn't make sense as being real.

    His larger point, though, is that there needs to be caution in this data dump. It is clear that there was some filtering, but it doesn't seem professional. So expect a lot of false leads and stuff that can be sensational, yet is false.

    Define a lot. How much of your inbox that's not just spam is intentionally inauthentic communication? Some of it is just shooting the shit for sure. If the assertion is that the FBI made up things to add (beyond selection and selective censorship) then I would say you need proof.

    Proof is a bad word, let's say some kind of evidence.

    No, you misunderstand. There has been a bunch of reporting on people reporting false and misleading and unsubstantiated claims.

    I'm am NOT saying the FBI/DOJ is intentionally lying or making things up. And I never said that.

    Now, keep in mind I have experience with teens to have been sexually abused and sex trafficked. As I've stated up thread (several times, in different ways), the stories that some report are iffy. Sometimes they are outrageous, sometimes the facts don't line up, sometimes there are remembrances. I also gave the example of a family member who was abused as a child. This family member knew the place, and knew the person, but events surrounding it (age, time of year, etc) didn't line up, and others in the family were suspicious. But my knowledge was that this family member provided enough information to be believable, even though it happened prior to my birth and I never met the abuser. I'm saying this as there are reports that seem to be incredible and unbelievable, but that fit the pattern. There are some things that are questionable, but not unbelievable. But there are also some things that seem highly suspicious. Like the example provided. And the issue is that the DOJ was either intentionally misleading or sloppy. But there are a number of people doing due diligence on a lot of these things, and weeding out the bullshit from the not-bullshit. But I would expect, and have seen, right wing influencers not bother with due diligence and just post as if everything is fact.

    The big point that he gets at is in post 7 - we want to believe all that is there. Is some of the more sensational stuff real? Sure. But some is not. And some we will never know. But there need to be questions asked and as much verification made as possible. As he said, we want to believe B Clinton had sex with a minor. That is not unbelievable, but I'm suspicious and nothing has previously come out or been suggested other than guilt-by-association*. But he absolutely associated with Epstein, and as others have also said, I'm sure he was warned about who Epstein was.

    * - I have long called B Clinton a predator, so if he did rape a minor, I would not be surprised.

    The thing about Trump insulting and being nasty to an "uppity" female reporter is nothing new, but as soon as she said the words "the victims," the look on Trumps face says "no big deal, why are we even talking about them."

    And then he says, "Let's move on. No one is even interested in this. Let's talk about healthcare."

    You sure you want to do that? Like how so many people lost their healthcare or are paying significantly more because of you?

    Oh absolutely. Clinton earned the ire of the people who didn't want to elect him, and I also think he earned the ire of those who did vote to elect him. Behind that drawl is an exceptionally cunning and canny letch in his best moments and a person who routinely abused his power for personal gratification in his worst.

    More evidence from the recently released files of Epstein continuing to be a power broker well into Trump's Presidency.

    On March 16, 2017, Anil Ambani, an Indian billionaire closely associated with Narendra Modi’s BJP government, sent financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein a message that the “Leadership” was asking for his assistance in connecting with senior figures in Donald Trump’s orbit ahead of an upcoming state visit by the Indian prime minister.

    Ambani texted Epstein, “Hello. Was in delhi. Leadership wld like ur help for me to meet jared and bannon asap. PI advise. Likely visit to dc by pm in may to meet donald. Also assitance on that.” Epstein and Ambani proceeded to set up a time to chat. A few messages later, Ambani texted, “Thanks as always.” Epstein responded, “Fun.”



    Later in the article it details the possible result of the meeting with another released communication they believe to be Qatar's former Prime Minister.

    In the meantime, emails show that Epstein, who played a connective role between Indian, Israeli, and U.S. elites in the run-up to the trip, was monitoring developments closely.

    On July 6, 2017, as Modi concluded his historic visit to Israel, an elated Epstein wrote to an individual identified in the emails as Jabor Y, identified in past reporting as an individual with ties to Qatar’s former prime minister, Hamad bin Jassim bin Jaber Al Thani. “The Indian Prime minisiter modi took advice. and danced and sang in israel for the benefit of the US president,” Epstein wrote. “they had met a few weeks ago.. IT WORKED. !”


    India's ministry of foreign affairs put out an official statement: https://www.mea.gov.in/Speeches-Statements.htm?dtl/40641

    We have seen reports of an email message from the so-called Epstein files that has a reference to the Prime Minister and his visit to Israel. Beyond the fact of the Prime Minister’s official visit to Israel in July 2017, the rest of the allusions in the email are little more than trashy ruminations by a convicted criminal, which deserve to be dismissed with the utmost contempt.

    Sucks when you see somebody exposed in the Epstein files who you previously held on high esteem.

    https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrit...ter-attia-epstein-files-connection-explained/

    Dr. Peter Attia is the author of the book “Outlive”, which I have found helpful as I deal with aging, and which I have recommended to many of my friends. I have also listened to his podcasts and watched his videos on exercise, nutrition and wellness topics.
    Now he’s been exposed as being friendly with Epstein and apparently being part of his disgusting shit. He issued an apology for “poor judgement” that sounds like something you’d say when you are guilty.
    Sadly, I’m going to have to look for other experts, I’m not supporting such human garbage.

    I bet Clarence Thomas is in there, though. Would serve him right.

    I saw an exchange on another SM site where a Ravens fan (by avatar, anyhow) was asking for a friend whether Ben Roethlisberger was on the files. Dude got a reply from someone other than me saying Ben ain't connected like that, and he ain't rich enough to not be connected.

    I am kind of surprised at the number of men who dig underage girls. I just do not understand that. I have almost always dated ladies a few months to a few years my elder. But I once had a conversation with a formerly closer friend (by "close" I mean music put us in each other's company about twice a week) about what he/I liked to see women wearing in/close to bed. He listed some doll style socks and ribbons and bows kind of stuff. I don't have any reason to think he'd do jailbait, but I 100% remember thinking I saw no reason for an adult woman to dress that way for sex. a tangent naturally popped up and we did not return to that particular subtopic.
