Epstein likes to tell people that he's a loner, a man who's never touched alcohol or drugs, and one whose nightlife is far from energetic. And yet if you talk to Donald Trump, a different Epstein emerges. "I've known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy,'' Trump booms from a speakerphone. "He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it -- Jeffrey enjoys his social life."
But beautiful women are only a part of it. Because here's the thing about Epstein: As some collect butterflies, he collects beautiful minds. "I invest in people -- be it politics or science. It's what I do," he has said to friends. And his latest prize addition is the former president. In his eyes, Clinton as a species represents the highest evolutionary form of the political animal. To be up close to him, as he was during the African journey, is akin to seeing the rarest of beasts on a safari. As he put it to a friend upon his return from Africa, "If you were a boxer at the downtown gymnasium at 14th Street and Mike Tyson walked in, your face would have the same look as these foreign leaders had when Clinton entered the room. He is the world's greatest politician."
"Jeffrey is both a highly successful financier and a committed philanthropist with a keen sense of global markets and an in-depth knowledge of twenty-first-century science," Clinton says through a spokesman. "I especially appreciated his insights and generosity during the recent trip to Africa to work on democratization, empowering the poor, citizen service, and combating HIV/AIDS."

I really wonder why Trump didn't attack the Clintons for being the prize of pedophiles, seems like a rather obvious relationship to criticize. When every politician on both aisles of politics are turning a blind eye to the criminal predations of the foulest people, who by day are loner ethical philanthropists and by night are hosting presidents on the lolita express, something terrible has occurred. Swear down, you guys have a serious problem, your elites are fucked in the head and no one's policing them
n 1980, Epstein made partner, but he had left the firm by 1981. Working in a bureaucracy was not for him; what's more, in rubbing up against ever greater sums of money during his time at Bear, he began to feel the need to grab his own piece of the action.
In 1982, according to those who know Epstein, he set up his own shop, J. Epstein and Co., which remains his core business today. The premise behind it was simple: Epstein would manage the individual and family fortunes of clients with $1 billion or more. Which is where the mystery deepens. Because according to the lore, Epstein, in 1982, immediately began collecting clients. There were no road shows, no whiz-bang marketing demos -- just this: Jeff Epstein was open for business for those with $1 billion–plus.
Ahahahaha billion dollar clients just appeared in his pocket
Newly disclosed excerpts of emails and letters exchanged by prosecutors and Epstein's defense (and posted here) appear to indicate that federal authorities and Epstein's lawyers worked to limit information judges might receive about aspects of the deal, which involved Epstein pleading guilty to a state charge in exchange for a guarantee not to prosecute him in federal court.
The exchanges "demonstrate that the victims' allegations of a conspiracy between the Government and Epstein's attorneys to conceal the existence of a broad non-prosecution agreement are not mere speculation, but appear to be well supported," Edwards and Cassell wrote. They added that one email "shows the parties negotiating to keep the judge in the dark about the full nature of the plea arrangement, as well as keeping the victims (i.e. 'the girls') in the dark about the plea agreement until after Epstein's plea. It also shows the prosecutors setting up a meeting with the defense attorneys that would be 'off campus' — i.e., outside the ordinary course of business."
Ayyy lmao how horrible, what a shame the investigation ended before his co-conspirators were found - who knows what powerful names would've popped up?
At the heart of this week’s court filings is a deal Epstein reached with federal prosecutors in September of 2007 that spared him from a federal prosecution. After an extensive investigation by the Palm Beach police and the FBI, the Justice Department effectively immunized Epstein for multiple alleged offenses involving underage girls in exchange for his guilty pleas to two comparatively minor sex crimes in Florida state court. And Epstein’s lawyers persuaded the federal government to keep the terms of the agreement secret, according to the court filing by victims’ attorneys Bradley Edwards and Paul Cassell.
On the day the deal was signed, an attorney for Epstein sent an email to the federal prosecutor handling the case which read, “Please do whatever you can to keep this from becoming public,” according to an email exchange attached to Wednesday’s filing.

hahaha just end me
This is just one powerful pedo, how many escape scrutiny because they have powerful connections? I can't say for the USA, because thus far epstein is the only one US authorities have been seen to go after, and they only gave him months and protected his associates.
However, countries that dig, find dirt.Perhaps it is a case of how people are shaped by their leaders, so in this sense it makes sense why the US or Europe is more tolerant of pedophiles and more cautious of ruining the lives of innocents accused in wild mania, whilst the UK is currently led by the woman who was in charge of investigating the watchmen who failed (or worse, colluded) with VIPedos.
Law courts,

military, there is no institution immune from corruption, and this is one of the worst.
The policy has endured as American forces have recruited and organized Afghan militias to help hold territory against the Taliban. But soldiers and Marines have been increasingly troubled that instead of weeding out pedophiles, the American military was arming them in some cases and placing them as the commanders of villages — and doing little when they began abusing children.
“The reason we were here is because we heard the terrible things the Taliban were doing to people, how they were taking away human rights,” said Dan Quinn, a former Special Forces captain who beat up an American-backed militia commander for keeping a boy chained to his bed as a sex slave. “But we were putting people into power who would do things that were worse than the Taliban did — that was something village elders voiced to me.”
The policy of instructing soldiers to ignore child sexual abuse by their Afghan allies is coming under new scrutiny, particularly as it emerges that service members like Captain Quinn have faced discipline, even career ruin, for disobeying it.
The West deserves to fall apart for ignoring this, I mean bloody hell we talk so much about muh narrative, muh pr, all in an attempt to stop jihadists from having material to recruit with, yet we arm pedos
The sad thing is, this is not even at the very least confined to degerenate western nations.
It's the worldThat should sum up why I view such attempts by esteemed morally void rags like Salon to make pedophilia acceptable with immediate vehemence.
Not the first time they've shown support for pedophile campaigns. Part of the problem, another obstacle to confront. It is simply unacceptable that powerful people willingly rub shoulders with people they know are pedophiles, catching pedos means nothing if they are never brought to justice or hospitals or whatever the hell you want to do with them.
