Powerful men have decided he wasn't doing things for powerful men. Nothing to see here folks, everyone should just go home.

He was just running it for himself, and powerful men happened to benefit and use it. But it was FOR himself. Problem solved right? Great job FBI!

The billionaires just fell into Jeffrey's consenting adult time machine, and they tripped over the levers on the way in, it was an accident all along

Nothing inspires trust like fbi boss crazyeyes. Once he got done with raiding fulton county election offices on completely not false election rigging allegations at the behest of the person that was not himself the one trying to rig it. Trust.

So who was he running a sex trafficking ring for?

Case closed, finally. Seems like a legit apolitical finding. /s

FBI continually doing more than any foreign power to undermine the credibility of the FBI.

Just a normal US thing. Nothing to see here.

That’s because technically there were powerful women involved too.

Other than all of the obvious horrible takeaways from the Epstein files, it's really incredible to see how overwhelmingly stupid all of these powerful rich shits are. This dude's out here acting all philosophical about trans people while fundamentally misunderstanding multiple aspects of how hormones actually affect people. Also, there is plenty of trans men porn, you just aren't seeing it because you have a fetish for trans women, not because it doesn't exist. Idiot freaks.

If I didn't know the source I would think this was taken from some seedy porn forum.

Other than the overwhelming preponderance of evidence, there's little reason to suspect him.

So if Epstein hadn't killed himself, would they have even had enough evidence to convict Epstein himself?

Kirp123@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 213d

He would probably be living with his pedo-pal Ghislaine in the cozy prison she's in.

It's not really about the sex trafficking or sex stuff. I think this is the shortest and most info packed video that gets the actual spectrum of our current reality across. https://youtu.be/xPATrjqDNDY

Right, good one guys! I had to double check this wasn't the onion. It's stuff like this that makes satire hard to sell nowadays.

Nothing inspires faith like the conspiracy podcaster crazy eyes fbi boss. Totally legit conclusion they came to right after they raided the election office in Fulton County Georgia to rehash the president's conspiracy theories about the 2020 election that he failed at stealing.

Strictly speaking he was running a blackmail ring to gather Kompromat

i pretty sure kash patel cant look straight ahead since the evidence is in front of him, just look at his eyes.

So they’re shitty at investigations, but we already knew that.

CmdrShepard49@sh.itjust.works · 6 pts · 213d

Why is it that all the referenced interviews and investigations occurred in 2019 or 2025 but nowhere in between?

Does this just mean that he wasn't doing it on behalf of anyone? But everything else is still the same?

He it was still sex trafficking and powerful men bought them. But Epstein didn't have a boss or anything?

These people have no choice now, they'll do anything to protect him because they know it's all over when he goes down.

Strider@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 212d

Ah well, then it's okay he was running a sex trafficking ring.....?
