?si=W0g1wUsvZHWbjXG9Interesting video. Covers:
* the various statements Bondi has made, how they are in direct opposition to each other, and why that might be.
* the people we DO know who were associating with Epstein and using the children he and Maxwell trafficked.
* the nature of the "files": we KNOW the FBI retrieved a closet full of CDs, many labeled with a young girl's name and a man's name, plus multiple hard drives and reams of photographs.
* what we know about Trump's and Dershowitz's interactions with Epstein.
* the refusal of the mainstream media to touch it - because, as Hedges points out, "the people who run these organizations circulate among these groups. These are their friends. That's how stories got killed at the New York Times."
* how the people who own the media are very easy to compromise. How we could break up the conglomerates tomorrow because of anti-trust laws but don't, suggesting there's an unspoken agreement between media and government.
* Epstein's sweetheart deal in 2007 and the connection to Acosta (thus trump).
* how the Epstein scandal is similar to the Franklin scandal from the 1980s and 90s.
* how the blackmail worked, how the members benefited hugely from being part of the cabal under Epstein's thumb as long as they stayed under Epstein's thumb.
* Tennessee rep Tim Burchett's public statement a year ago that many of his colleagues are being compromised by honey traps.
* CIA associations with various DC blackmail organizations.
* the dirth of convictions of those who make and disseminate child abuse materials.
* the Epstein settlement fund for victims - it makes the girls sign NDAs against naming any of their other perpetrators. Which is proof there are other perpetrators and they are being protected.
* the likelihood there were victims under the ages of 10 or 12.
* hinky facts about Epstein's death.
