Will Unmasking Epstein's Clients Finally Wake Americans Up To Our Human Trafficking Crisis?
[Federalist] According to the State Department, 6.3 million people were forced into commercial sexual exploitation in 2021, and 1.7 million of those are children. What kind of person abuses a child like this?

Jeffrey Epstein, that’s who. And now we will finally see his "John Doe" list — the names of individuals allegedly tied to Epstein or his sex-trafficking ring. According to the New York Post, Former President Bill Clinton will be revealed as "John Doe 36" in redacted documents slated to be unsealed this week. Britain’s Prince Andrew is also expected to appear on the list.

Jeffrey and his accomplice Ghislane Maxwell and all their wealthy and famous friends ran a heinous racket of abuse and vile sexual exploitation of children for years. Their victims were as young as 14 years old. Maxwell enticed and groomed young girls to be abused by befriending them, asking about their lives, their schools, and their families, and taking them to the movies or on shopping trips, then acclimated victims to Epstein’s conduct simply by being present for victim interactions with him. According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office of the Southern District of New York who prosecuted the case, her actions put victims at ease and more comfortable having an adult woman who seemingly approved of Epstein’s behavior.

From 1994 through 2001, Maxwell, who is now serving a 20-year prison term, and Epstein identified vulnerable girls, typically from single-mother households and difficult financial circumstances as their victims. Epstein exploited girls who were vulnerable to abuse, enticed them with cash payments, and identified others to help recruit these minors for him and his list of wealthy friends.

#2 To answer the question in the title, the answer is a resounding 'no'.

#3 ^ Yes. Approximately half the people in this country say, "That doesn't affect me." The other half say, "Where do I sign up?"

If we are truly a nation of EQUALS & based on EQUAL JUSTICE. ALL the names must be released and they must publicly stand trial for their criminal acts. Plus their trials should be televised like Trumps, OJ's and etc.....

We cannot have scum like these, ruling over us, and has control over a politicized legal system that just runs cover for their actions.

In short they are acting more and more like a invincible, untouchable Royalty class of older times and a working class revolt will surely come, as it has repeatedly happened in history.

#5 must publicly stand trial for their criminal acts.

Which, if any occurred (of course they did) happened outside US territory, there is no evidence let alone proof and who exactly is going to prosecute those cases? The DoJ?

Really?

#9 I'd settle for just "our" side to finally accept that we don't just have a "difference of opinion" but that instead we're in an actual battle of good versus evil.

#10 Release delayed until 1/22/23.

2 weeks for 'Does' to protest, 1 week for court to process protests. Legalese for "we may never see the list".

#11 Who Are the Newly Revealed Jeffrey Epstein Associates?

#12 Used to be a newspaper in Oceanside, CA that would publish the names of johns arrested by the Oceanside police. Shaming and naming such people helped that city to reduce the problem they had with streetwalkers. Of course, most of those johns were not the kind of reptiles that patronized Epstein. Guys like Bill Clinton are immune to shame. Just ask Monica Lewinsky. But it would be fun to watch him doing the perp walk in an orange jump suit.

#13 For the most part, Americans are lemmings.
The political class is bought and paid for.
Nothing will happen.

#14 I see Ehud Barak on that list. It's no surprise that he and Bill Clinton have that in common. He is the kind of Israeli politician that Bill Clinton and Baraq Obama favored over Bibi Netanyahu. My theory is that a lot of Obama's aid to Iran was done just to fuck with Bibi and wouldn't have happened if Ehud Barak was Israeli PM.

#15 It will have an impact. Not the impact that it should, but it certainly does not help the evil people. Sometimes truth acts like drops of water on limestone.

#17 Not a fan of calling prostitution and exploitation, human trafficking. This is what the left does, it relabels things it doesn't like with more sinister names.

#18 How about rape? That's closer to what's actually happening. Kidnapping and rape...statutory rape too.

#19 Calling the kids prostitutes and consenting will be a strategy. Others will claim they were just there for shrimp cocktail, pickle-ball and Satanic rituals.

#20 No. The media will refuse to cover it. And the administration will claim its a conspiracy theory - and the media will repeat that over and over and over as fact. Anyone discussing it will be cancelled.
Twitter and Facebook (and everything else) will be flooded with so-called experts calling it a fraud.

Its not like they haven't dont that before.
