Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

The Norwegian Royal family is in complete shambles.
The Crown Princess has been implicated in the Epstein files and her son (before being wed into royalty), is currently in a very public trial for rape and sexual misconduct.
Let it burn.
Despite the apparent rise in republican sentiment and the unusual prime ministerial intervention, the dial hasn’t moved on the status of the monarchy among Norway’s wider political class. In a strange coincidence, a vote that takes places every four years in parliament on making Norway a republic was held on Tuesday. Just 26 MPs voted in favour of getting rid of the monarchy, against 141 who voted to keep it. Support was in fact lower than the last time a vote took place, in June 2022, when 35 voted in favour of a republic. The measure requires a two-thirds majority to pass.
Shame people that can do something about it don't care.
I think the crown prince should be given the same choice as Edward VIII: her or the crown.
It's because Americans don't give a shit about anything. Europeans actually have the balls to do something if their governments but Americans will just let their government do anything as long as the marvel and Disney slop keeps flowing into their troughs.
Someone has to do it.
The elites are so fucked up. They really think they are something better than the people.
From my pov the parallels to the kings and Queens of feudalism are just to strong. We need powerful rules to cut down power of individuals not just politicians. We need to trim billionaires, trim their money and their influence.
The elites isn't the main problem. It is that we put narcissistic sociopath in power because of our tendencies to follow the group and vote because of the party we usually vote for instead of looking at the program.
Who do you think influences the masses to vote this way, and who put people like trump in the position to be elected?
Has nothing to do with which country is doing the redactions, of course.
They released this tranche of Epstein files Friday, January 30, 2026 -- the same day many people across the US were spontaneously protesting against ICE.
It's one thing when you feed the drama mill and send everyone scurrying for whatever little tidbits of meat there are to find in a set of dead files.
It's quite another when across all fifty states people are just showing up voluntarily to reject your claim to power.
Don't be deceived. They released them when they did and in the way they did because the Epstein files, as bad as they are and as wide in scope as they reach, are by far the LESSER danger to this regime and their absolute need to stay in power.
More muted. What a title. You mean, there were zero fucking consequences.
“Muted” is a weird way of saying that there will be no consequences at all and if you disagree masked men will show up and disappear you or shoot you in the face and call you a terrorist on tv if you’re lucky enough to have someone catch your execution on video
Because MAGA loves pedophiles ... mostly because it is self love.
"Why isn't the US government prosecuting the pedophilic billionaire death cult?"
My dude, the US government IS the pedophilic billionaire death cult.

If I were a conspiracy theorist I would say that the release of the Files were redacted in such a way to topple political adversaries in Europe. I mean that goal is part the Heritage Project 2025.
They very obviously redacted things like “don’t” in some PDFs I’ve seen. Hmmm. Don’t. Don T. Wonder why that was done.
I'm just waiting for the Michael Scarn - Dwigt case where something like Domald Trumo shows up.

I have been following British media a bit and unless I am mistaken, this Mandelson chap ran afoul of his Epstein conduct back in September, which was before the DOJ even started releasing the Epstein files as part of the Epstein act, which hadn't passed at the time. The subsequent release and redactions seem to have exposed even more, but his goose was cooked before that.
Current allegations are that Mandelson handed Epstein extremely sensitive government information. I forget what Brits call it, but we'd say it was classified.
And it currently seems like PM Kier Starmer is probably going to fall with him, since he apparently knew about Mendelson's continuing association with post-conviction Epstein.
Anyways, that one particularly seems somewhat unrelated to the redaction choices.

I watch a lot of YouTube about this stuff. Neither the randos nor the mainstream have asked the question I'm thinking 24/7 - how does any other sovereign nation know these files are compiled, involving their own leadership, and aren't suing the US for access?
Because.... that's not how that works, ever. The ICC is opt-in, and the US opted out.
So all extradition and intelligence sharing has been offline the last 14 months?
US is the new pedo island from the looks of it
Well, with the biggest fish in the Epstein sea is protecting his own flock in the US. Here in Europe, there is still public scrutiny and there is justice.
Justice for crimes they committed, right? Please remind us & point out where the files conclusively show the "toppled top figures" committing crimes.
All documents proving this have probably either been shredded or marked "Top Secret". Public shaming is the only hope left.

Those sick bastards should lose everything and then some. Their assets and finances should be used toward education, healthcare and public services which help the lower class.
"Muted"! Hah!
Hahaha!
(clawing at eye sockets) HAHAHAAA!
That’s because Project 2025 flooding the zone blew out our Overton Window like the fucking Kool-Aid Man.
It's almost as if the US is an oligarchy and that the ultra wealthy are able to govern the nation with political influence and shield themselves from the law.
This should be a wake up call to all citizens. It doesn't matter who you elect. Your interests will never be represented until this oligarchy is broken up or destroyed.
Or maybe shame still means something in those countries. Shame means nothing to Trump & his brand of politics.

Or instead of waiting we can all look at the Luigi inside of us
That's because the unredacted European names are distractions from the redacted mentions of the orange lardsack.
I wonder why they redacted the word "don't" 🤔. Almost like someone called don with a last name beginning with t appeared so many times they needed to automate the redaction of his name.

toppled top figures
Who? I know of one guy from the UK - Peter Mandelson, as named in the article and summary. Who else?
