How in the hell can there be “hundreds of hours of footage of victims” and also “no evidence for new charges against perpetrators”? Like, do these videos only show victims and not perps? I am astonished they would come out with something so obviously contradictory and implausible, make it make sense.

There needs to be a specific ask. For example, the top five (most occurrences) video taped perps of underage sex are revealed.

Wow! This is a powerful calling out, Michael. Thank you. The intelligence community has operated with impunity for decades. It’s time to open that can of worms.

I trust the people who call out bad behaviors on both the sides. I trust Micheal and Alex to speak wisdom we need to hear.

Are Bondi and Patel calling the shots on such a case?

Trump effectively ended his presidency. He did in 6 months what the deep state failed to do in more than 10 years...

If I may add: the Epstein is at its root a huge financial crime case, that's been going on for decades. The guy was moving and hiding money offshore for its clients when he was a Bear Stearns partner already. He kept doing that after he left Towers Financial Corporation and started his own asset management firm. It seems it's only when he reached a certain level of wealth that his perversion took over, as it could affor it in every sense of the term.

Knowing where the cash's stashed is, to these people - his "clients" - a more potent leverage than any compromising video.

But it is unthinkable that the FBI and the CIA did not keep track of what he was doing.

I don’t think there’s really enough people to care about this that would end Donald Trump’s presidency. It’s great to talk about and speak about but nobody really cares that much.

I wouldn't bet on that. He promised to release those files and deal with the deep state. He also promised no more war, and he attacked Iran. It has an impact on public opinion.

Their boss ORDERED them to do that — because E-files would markedly increase “antisemitism” 😂😂🤡🤡

Spot on as usual Michael. Thank you in advance for continuing to dig. The CIA, NSA, and FBI et al. must have some serious dirt on some big fish in the US. How so many people can know and nobody talks is beyond me......

So there’s no “list” huh? No further disclosure of the visitors to Camp Epstein…?

Add that to the fact that Epstein apparently killed himself with materials that were not supposed to be in his cell, surveilled by video cameras that mysteriously didn’t work that night, and checked on by prison guards that didn’t check on him. Just another series of coincidences. Nothing to see here. How about those Yankees?

Incredible writing. Thank you for your integrity and courage. I have great trust in Trump, but this trust must be upheld by his actions and the the actions of his administration. None of this passes the smell test--we all know there's so much more to this. Please continue to call for congress to act as well. Together, Trump and congress have s responsibility to out this crime.

Disgusting! I feel so betrayed. Again. This is the biggest black eye imaginable for the Trump Administration. The Swamp is officially full to the brim.

Thanks to Michael S. For his fearless reporting. Please keep up the pressure.

To set the record straight, Epstein was tied to Mossad; the Israeli intelligence service (akin to the CIA).

I'm sure he was a freelance pedophile trafficker that worked for all of them.

Well and bravely stated! We must demand the restoration of our Constitutional liberties now or passively accept the murder of the American Republic by the autocratic, anti-American forces of the Deep State. The November 1963 Coup d’état will be completed unless we act immediately.

We all know how this precisely went down, just like George Washington who made an example of one perpetrator while letting all the other conspirators go because if he was to prosecute all the conspirators it would have shaken the faith in the continental army. So that's what he did, he let all the conspirators go except for one of them which he hung as an example.

The institutionalist who confuses the institution with the government which is the constitutional founding document in not an agency; approached the FBI director and the attorney general that they needed to do the same thing as George Washington and in order to protect the legitimacy of the institution they needed to hide the facts of the matter.

Truly, the institutionalist doesn't really care about the agency but finds it a useful way in which to influence the leadership to protect himself from transparency and accountability.

We need that fire in the belly of Trump to call these people out on the carpet and say " too bad, so sad, you're fired! "

We demand basic accountability of transparency, anything less is unacceptable. I don't care if any of the perpetrators ever see the inside of a jail cell, but everybody needs to know what actually happened here.

Just like we have statues of Confederate soldiers, if one of the perpetrators ends up taring at a historical figure we should have them remembered factually and preserve the memory of what occurred here.
