A resurfaced clip shows sex offender Jeffrey Epstein pleading the Fifth when he was asked during a deposition if he ever socialized with underage girls around Donald Trump.
The video clip, unearthed by left-leaning outlet MeidasTouch, shows Epstein responding to questions during a March 2010 deposition. The disgraced financier was questioned by an attorney of an alleged victim, Vice News previously reported.
Dear God, I keep expecting this to run out of gas and it just won’t quit!
I’m really confused why this is all of the sudden a big deal. Everyone is rehashing things that we already know/knew.
Theory is that this is maga realizing they’ve been played. Trump ran on Epstein files and when they decided the files weren’t real, maga realized he’s been lying to them.
But who knows.
But t lied about a lot of things… It’s really interesting that this is the hill where maga becomes woke.
They’ve built conspiracies about child predators up to the point where it’s a foundational principle of the movement for many. They make movies about pedophile hunters and spread conspiracies that inspire people break into pizza stores with rifles. Maybe this is a coordinated threat to Trump to get him to bend on tariffs and deportations, maybe they just didn’t realize the themes they were using to rile them up actually stuck and wasn’t something they were going to reverse course on when it became politically inconvenient.
Is the media pushing this story to maga, or is maga pushing this story? It seems like he’s trying to distance himself from it, but it keeps coming back. Who’s pushing it? Maybe it’s a chicken and egg question.
It’s more playing it back for people that weren’t listening before
My current conspiracy theory is that Trump’s owners have decided that he’s become more of a liability than an asset, and are throwing him under the bus to replace him with someone more under their control.
My “evidence” is that this steady daily trickle of new evidence tying Trump to Epstein didn’t just miraculously spawn into existence this week. It’s been in people’s filing cabinets and video/photo archives for years
I just find it really hard to believe none of this was “found” earlier. Instead it’s being “found” now, but not all at once. It’s being “found” at a rate that keeps the story at the top of the news cycle.
I think that’s very possible. They’re using him as a fall guy too. They want to transition power to someone who’s not so fickle and more loyal while avoiding elections. They have to constantly course correct him because he’s actually wildly incompetent and he goes off script. He’s easy to manipulate but that means he’s easy to manipulate by everyone.
Also, look at all the tech stuff he’s passing right now. It’s super concerning and is going to have long term impact on our ability to do anything beyond tech monopoly control. Everything is “EPSTEIN” meanwhile he’s signing crypto laws, ai deregulation and all kinds of scary dystopian tech bills.
If you don’t know who Curtis Yarvin and what the Dark Enlightenment is and who his acolytes are— it’d be a good place to start to understand what’s possibly happening here. Hint: JD Vance is a loyalist.
He doesn’t pass shit. Except, well, literally. But then at both ends. Congress passes laws.
In a perfect world. But he is the sitting president and does sign bills into law. But you’re right, I’m referring to executive orders as well. But the GENIUS Act he signed after passing the House and the series of AI Executive Orders like Preventing Woke AI, Export of the American AI Tech Stack and his deregulation on Data Centers. . They’re rushing forward with all of this while the whirlwind of Epstein news dominates the news cycle. These are massive power shifts and it’s only been a week.
Or he turned on them and this is basically the leash they held in reserve…
That and Trump got on Putin’s bad side by attacking Iran.
This is beginning to feel like the Swedish penis pump scene in Austin Powers
