Nah. It's quite clear that if there's a heaven, you don't want to go there because God is clearly the bad guy. That's why Lucifer was trying to overthrow him; home boy tried to put an end to the evil.

What heās really onto is that he is a really stable genius. Not many people could have made it from that level of implication to the presidency.
But right now weāre just making him fall (without violence as you prefer), Iām just sad weāre helping Thiel install his ultimate puppet.

He is also accused of beating up 12 years for not performing properly while being raped.

The reason I believe this is true is because in the last election Trump kept accusing Democrats of supporting "post-birth abortions". The man tells on himself so much that it makes this claim very plausible.
jballs@sh.itjust.works · 94 pts · 234d
Yeah, most regular people heard "post-birth abortion" and were like "wtf that's not even a thing" but Trump was apparently speaking from personal experience and proved us all wrong.

I am obviously not a Trump supporter, but you have to consider with 350 million people in the US, and the fact that he was the US president, he is obviously a frequent character in schizophrenic delusions.
The tip line should not be considered hard evidence in itself, as anyone can call in and make any kind of claim.
I have no doubt that he is a pedophile. I don't believe this story without corroborating evidence though.

It's like 99% certain he used the "services", and probably helped the pipeline of new victims.
However the specifics of a web tip submitted in August 2020 in the height of a campaign should still be, itself, treated with some skepticism. There are indications that hopefully there's corroborating material to the tip that is absolutely worth searching for, but by itself, we should be cautious.
pelespirit@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 233d
Why do we have to give him the benefit of the doubt? He's sending US citizens to be tortured in Salvadorian prisons and they have no rights. He'll get the same benefit of the doubt he gives those people.
jj4211@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 233d
Because we don't have to indulge in untrustworthy accounts because there's so much concrete material to work with.
To open things up for unsubstantiated accounts we are inclined to believe is to undermine ourselves when calling out those sources when they are not consistent with the truth on other matters.
This should absolutely be kicking off efforts to substantiate the indicated events in the tip. But we shouldn't act as if someone getting a tip into a web form is automatically a fact.

We can go with those more well vetted sources until someone finds something to substantiate this tip.
If we go by unverified tips submitted to the FBI website, then we probably could get quite a few tips from 2016 alleging they saw Hilary Clinton going into the pizzagate place, ordering extra cheese, and walking out with a trafficked kid.
Here it's more plausible as it is more consistent with Epstein and Trump and all, but in an open tip line, it's just a mess
skisnow@lemmy.ca · 4 pts · 232d
I do. The corroborating evidence is literally every single other thing we know about him.
If someone claimed they saw Billy the Burglar burgling their house - who 27 people previously reported catching burgling their houses, and who was on record talking about how much he liked burgling peopleās houses, and was a known documented member of a secretive Burglarās Guild - would you be like āhey, we donāt know that it was him THIS time, couldāve been someone lying to profit from claiming on the insuranceā?
paranoia@feddit.dk · 2 pts · 232d
Your "example" broadly agrees with what I say. There is a lot of evidence that he is a pedophile. There is no evidence that he was present during the dumping of a newborn's body into lake Michigan - which is a different act to the "burglary" metaphor.
jj4211@lemmy.world · 19 pts · 233d
MAGA logic: if she was pregnant then obviously she went through puberty and thus technically not a pedophile.
Disclaimer: This specific item as yet is a tip that was submitted over a web form in the middle of Trump's 2020 run. It does need some corroboration before we get too attached to the specifics of this particular document.

The Epstein files themselves are a major story; independent of the truth of what is contained within them. There is serious talk about impeaching the US attorney general over her role in illegally suppressing these documents due to loyalty to president Trump. And there has been major public discussion about why the Trump administration has been so hostile to releasing them.
This all makes the mere existence of an allegation against Trump in the documents genuinely newsworthy.

Not the rich people jail, but the max security jail where, the ones where the prisoners ask you for you documentation to make sure you are not a pedo, it wont be necessary in this case.
Although I have no doubt, they will just Impeach as a symbolic gesture, then stop at removing him. and legally, there might not be any system to send him to jail. as he can pardon himself and anything illegal he does to avoid accountability is 100% legal just for him.

I think the idea is that jeffrey epstein hooked him up with some filthy man who pimped out his own underage niece and that pimp was so morally repugnant thst he himself executed the child produced, with Donald Trump watching to make sure it was done.

It's the output from a digital form. I have all kinds of web forms on the government site I run, and the reports looks similar to this. Stripped of all the public-facing UI it makes less sense.
It's one of the more frustrating things when doing Open Records in the digital age.
Example: Let's say your neighbor files an application for a building permit application online to build a new fence. If you ask for a copy of the application, there's no real "document" to provide. Modern permitting uses interactive websites, not paper applications. Best we can do is have a reporting tool that spits out what information was provided in each field, but that's often missing context.

I'm reading the 2020 Maxwell trial transcripts and both the pilot, Larry Viskoski, and the first victim the govt put on the stand, "Jane," testified under oath that Epstein was a repeat visitor to Michigan and to the Interlochen School of Music in Traverse City, where Epstein had apparently attended at some point and from which he and Ghislane Maxwell initially made contact with "Jane" at the age of thirteen.
https://www.justice.gov/multimedia/Court%20Records/United%20States%20v.%20Maxwell,%20No.%20120-cr-00330%20(S.D.N.Y.%202020)%20-%20Trial%20Transcripts/Trial%20Day%202%20-%20743.pdf
Just in case anyone else was wondering what Epstein was doing in Michigan, of all places. Turns out he went at least once a year, if not more often. What this tip is alleging is entirely possible, at least from the geographic standpoint.
EDITED TO ADD: Incidentally, this link is to the same portion of the transcript, Day 2 of the trial, where the same pilot also testifies under oath that Trump flew on Epstein's jet "a number of times" or "more than once" (pp. 105-106):

This is an anonymous FBI tip by a submitter who put Donald Trump's name and age as their own. It is corroborated by nothing at all.
If you wanna talk shit on trump, go on I guess, but if you are convincing yourself this actually means something its probably time to acknowledge you are too stupid to vote and or even hold an opinion about politics, and simply stop doing either of those things for the foreseeable future.
The dumber conservatives- I mean the ones who think the same as you, but happen to be conservative instead because of their life circumstances- would easily look at comments in this thread and conclude that they need to vote conservative no matter what comes out later to keep the left out of power.

Sometimes I think they are so rich that they can have so many women any time they want. By the time they are 30, they might become desensitized to the novelty of the prettiest women, and then reach into the taboo to feel something, like CSA and torturing people.

Yeah, he's a capitalist because he's a bad person.

Sounds crazy. Do you have any reasons to actually believe in that? Are there any proofs? Trump is an idiot, but this claim doesn't make much sense.

When you rape a child and get them pregnant, their child is incontrivertable proof of your deed. The baby has your genes, and the mother's, proving attacker and victim, and the age of the baby and the age of the mother prove that she was a child when it happened.
Of course it makes sense to personally oversee the destruction of such vital evidence. People don't like killing babies. Not having the heart to kill a baby and pretending that you did is a tale as old as time, literally.
It seems like she was already pregnant when trump raped her, but given that trump was an important figure in a high profile pedophile ring, it was likely someone he knew and was protecting.

Why allow it to be brought into the world at all? Wouldn't an abortion be much easier?

Try to think more terribly.

Yeah that's a reasonable point. 'They wanted a pregnant victim' is a little too supervilliany for me to believe.

Decades of depraved criminal acts not doing anything for you huh? Interesting.
