Is It Possible That This Whole Epstein Story Will Be Revealed By.....

countries other than the United States.

Tr**p and his minions are doing everything possible to make the story go away.

However, lately I've been hearing about other countries investigating this Epstein story - because this whole Epstein mess is really a world-wide concern. It just didn't involve rich men from the U.S. - it has transcended that and has become a global sensation.

I'm thinking that if we see any major developments on Epstein - we'll be seeing them come from other countries.

Any thoughts?

will consistently originate from outside the US.

I think at this point, major American media shareholders are cowed, bowed or wowed by Mr. trump, and will proudly wear the trump-brand mayonnaise in place of standard stage makeup as they plausibly avoid the Epstein story as much as audience allows them.

And the treatment that Tr**p has given to these other countries - they might want to get back at him and release stuff we haven't even seen yet. And unredacted!!!

Other countries can target the activities that were going on in their countries (such as the procuring of girls being sent to Epstein in the US). By identifying those people involved, they can possibly incentivize them to divulge who they were working with in the US - we know it was much more than just Epstein. Once they get people to talk and name names, others that could still be prosecuted for their actions will be racing to cut deals and name others.

but don't expect too much to come of it, the heyday of Epstein's sex business was the 1990s and most of the procurers are in nursin homes, dead, or really didn't know what jobs those girls were really going to be forced to do.

It isn't just Epstein and it's still going on, "modeling" is one of the main ways to get teenager girls into the sex worker pipeline.

Besides, what I'm waiting for is for the rest of his business to be exposed---the scams, the money laundering, all of it. His domestic sex tourism business wouldn't have paid his kind of money.

even if the public does not. They need to name every man who was responsible for the rape of these young women. I am often doubtful but all you need is a judge to assign a special master.

Poland to probe possible links between Epstein and Russia, PM Tusk says
https://www.reuters.com/world/poland-probe-possible-links-between-epstein-russia-pm-tusk-says-2026-02-03/

Everything about Donald Trump is about money. He is not just a tool of Russia.

I have no doubt that far more incontrovertible evidence of the deep relationship between Trump and Russian intelligence is going to be exposed. It may not be until he is long gone, but when the true extent becomes undeniable it will be the most monumental national and international scandal of our times.

'A special place in hell': New taskforce to hunt down 'scouts' who sent girls to Epstein
VERY IMPORTANT POST

Scouts who sent girls to Epstein

Start here:



303squadron’s landmark thread.
https://www.democraticunderground.com/100220735608

Just hear me out, what if he's not just in the Epstein files
But actually a part of the trafficking ring. He ran the Rump Modeling Agency and owned the Miss Teen America Pagent.
That might explain why the Pharisee Speaker of the House is trying so hard to stop information from coming out.
And we all know he’ll do anything for a buck!

---------
Ah, yes. The Trump Modeling Agency and the Miss Teen America Pageant.
Recruiting grounds.
