“The most concerning question is when and how did America become so subservient to Israel that we immediately release a CHILD SEX PREDATOR after arrest, with a 100 percent locked up case with evidence, and let him off to fly back home to Israel?” Taylor Greene wrote, asserting that no other country’s national would receive similarly favorable treatment.

Trump Regime is run by pedos for pedos and oil execs (most of the time they are one in the same)

Ironically the Israeli pedo who was released is probably in them.

Do people honestly not understand that Epstein wasn't CIA, he was Mossad?

Same with Maxwell's dad.

The reason there's so much irrational support for Israel, is they've been doing this for generations:

This type of shit happens when you can justify any action for "the mission", even running an international child trafficking ring to ensure foreign governments protect you no matter what.

That's also why you just don't see young politicians in America win very often on the state or national scale. Pretty much Every person who's been in office for 20+ years, has either fallen for the honey pot, and is in the files, or is aware,, but conveniently ignoring it to not be ostracized by their peers and to not interrupt their donor cash flow, which comes from rich people who have also gotten caught up in the trap.

A groundswell of young politicians with no baggage becoming senators/house reps has the potential to expose thousands of ultra wealthy and US politicians who have raped children, and are now compromised by Israel. Russia knows about it at well.

Exposing the truth would probably be the best thing we can do for the country and it's people. Otherwise we'll continually be a proxy state controlled by Israel because our top rank and file politicians don't want the truth about them to come out.

If you were a bezos or Zuckerberg and knew that Israel had really bad dirt on you, your going to fund candidates who have the same baggage and liability, not someone young and idealistic who may actually hold you responsible

The whole "Epstein = Mossad" stems from incredible bullshit generator Tucker Carlson.

He's not the only one, from the second link:

It’s not beyond the realm of possibility that Epstein had connections to the [Israeli intelligence community],” says Julie K. Brown, whose book “Perversion of Justice: The Jeffrey Epstein Story” was released on July 20.

She's kind of an expert on this topic...

Because she's kind of the reason Epstein even went to jail:

Brown has been credited with re-opening the Jeffrey Epstein sexual abuse case with a series of reports published in November 2018.[9][10][11] She began investigating Epstein in early 2017 and persisted in uncovering facts about the large number of accusers and the pressure campaign to silence them

Yeah, this theory has existed long before Tucker had jack shit to say about it

[–] splonglo@lemmy.world 33 points 3 months ago

That's the most on-brand thing they've ever done.

[–] switcheroo@lemmy.world 25 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Pedos always protect other pedos. I mean, look at the US government right now...

[–] Danquebec@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 months ago

Or the Catholic Church...

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago

Probably a Trump aquaintence from Epstein island...

[–] PalmTreeIsBestTree@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago (1 children)
[–] uhdeuidheuidhed@thelemmy.club 3 points 3 months ago

Yep. Just look at how many people in power knew about Epstein's raping of minors and kept quiet.

We had to find out for ourselves, which should put into perspective who our representatives truly represent.

The most concerning question is when and how did America become so subservient to Israel that we immediately release a CHILD SEX PREDATOR after arrest, with a 100 percent locked up case with evidence, and let him off to fly back home to Israel?

There she goes confusing correlation with causation again. The Israel thing might have something to do with it, but I think it's primarily that kiddie rapists gonna protect kiddie rapists.

MTG, ask yourself, "are there any other cases of rapists being granted leniency or even favoritism in recent history?" If so, then, "who is letting all these rapists go free? Who is giving power to kid-fuckers? Who do all these monsters run to whenever they get into hot water?" Now, go ask them, "why?"

Release the Epstein files

[–] bobs_monkey@lemmy.zip 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'm willing to bet that there is some obscure scripture somewhere in either the old testament that these fucks are using to justify diddling kids. In fact, I fucking guarantee it.

It wouldn't surprise me to discover that this is a worldwide phenomenon among the powerful and wealthy. These sick bastards just love to push boundaries and do whatever the hell they want. It's a cancer of humanity.

A rabbi once explained to my Hebrew school class that Rivka was married at the age of 3 or 14. He explained that some people think she was a baby, others think she was 14, and some think she was 17.

Then, he told us that all those people were ridiculous because the truth as that she was a normal age for the time, but she had the beauty of a 14 year-old and the innocence of a 3 year-old.

Then, he explained what he meant about 14 year-olds being beautiful and talked about their porcelain skin, naturally red cheeks, how they're just starting to develop, and gestured to the girl in the class with the biggest chest. And 3 year-olds always tell the truth and are always waiting to learn what they should do.

We asked if 14 is kinda gross because teenagers are covered in acne. He yelled at us about how everyone was beautiful in the Torah because they actually bathed, unlike us who all smelled bad. And he said we were like pigs and oinked at us.

Of course, we all told our parents about how crazy the new rabbi is and how uncomfortable he made us and that he said he was better than all of us and our families. He never spoke to my class again.

Anyway, there's my one memorable interaction with Rabbi Kaye from his brief time subbing at my synagogue. It wasn't until I was older that I realized how amazing it was for our parents to have listened to us and protected us from such a horrible person.

Where's QAnon when we need them?

[–] Modern_medicine_isnt@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

Sadly, this is generally done between all governments. It's an "I will look out for your buddies, you look out for mine" thing. They think the laws are for us peasants.

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 3 months ago

If you can't protect the people who are just like you, who the hell can you protect?

[–] cm0002@piefed.world 4 points 3 months ago

Well I am shocked, SHOCKED I say! Well, not that shocked.

[–] CobblerScholar@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Business as usual, abhorrent lumps of flesh that get off on making children suffer forever protecting other equally reprehensible scum.

[–] b161@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 3 months ago

Both American and Israel are pedo nations.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Weird that this isn’t a story about Trump.

[–] ganksy@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Well, it is just indirectly.

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 months ago

This is looking like a pattern.
