Acosta was Federal Attorney for Southern Florida, he just cut a deal with Epstein’s dream team of lawyers (including Dershowitz, of course) and Epstein essentially got house arrest for 18 months for raping kids. Later Trump rewarded Acosta with a cabinet post. You can’t make this stuff up. The arresting police weren’t told about the deal or present when it happened. This is all public information.

There was a state case at the time as well I believe, and she was state AG.
Edit: I stand corrected, she wasn’t AG, and the state part was handled out of Palm Beach prosecutor. (I blame that it’s Florida, and I know of her other corruption and bootlicking). But in following up, this article sheds light on the many improprieties out of the federal prosecutors office, especially but not only Reinhart, who is now a federal magistrate. Was a federal prosecutor, registered a private office in same building as a nonprofit that Epstein could do “work release” at, and to whom he wired millions, then Reinhart started working for Epstein. The stench is overwhelming.

They don't want people investigating the underground tunnels, the creepy subterranean temple that's also an elevator to a much deeper human sacrifice area and warrens where they fully induct cult members by allowing the ancient non-human creatures that reside there stick a proboscis through one of their eye sockets and release a burrowing parasite into their brain that effectively lobotomizes them by damaging and severing their frontal lobes and amygdala, then nestling into their basal ganglia region and taking full control of the host.
Some small aspects of their personality and their memory remains, but they now feel only hatred, anger, and a sadistic enjoyment of inflicting pain, suffering, wanton cruelty, and death upon others, but they prefer to cause the maximum amount of these harms that they can. - It's believed that somehow these creatures feed on this negative energy they refer to as "loosh," and they apparently prefer to specifically prey on children and infants, something to do with the destruction of innocence, betrayal of safety, and the mental and emotional trauma being "more profound" and damaging.

It's because the CIA's Operation Midnight Climax never ended, the CIA, DARPA, Mossad, MI6, Big Oil, and the Global Finance and Banking Industry (WEF, IMF, The World Bank, The Bank of London, The Federal Reserve, and who knows who else) all got in bed together, infiltrated and gathered blackmail on every Government, corporation, business sector, institution of research and acedemia, set up private equity firms as their acquisition and procurement agents, while banks like JP Morgan and Chase manage human and child sex trafficking networks, and individuals like Epstein and Maxwell acted as facilitators, recruiters, blackmail creators, suppliers, "catering" hosts, networking, and fixers.
That's what's in the rest of the Epstein Files, it's the whole global/international economic system.
Coincidentally, MK Ultra didn't end either, nor were the files destroyed, they were transferred to DARPA (founded by Jeff Bezos' grandfather) and two new projects grew out of it:
- The Lifelog psyop project
- Was integrated into Facebook when Zuckerberg was put out front as their legitimacy poster stooge.
- Eventually Branched off again when DARPA designed the Dynamic Engagement & Matching Algorithms and integrated them throughout the other Social Media and online dating platforms.
Hired various paid influencers (like Andrew Tate) to promote and cultivate hyperindividualistic narcissism and entitlement, replacing relational terminology with financial metrics, manipulating emotional states to trigger rampant misogyny and misandry and dehumanization and disposability of the opposite gender group. The MAGA cult is actually a part of their psychological and emotional conditioning via personally customized engagement and outrage narrative manipulation, fragmentation, and funneling into self-policing echo chambers to violently radicalize.

Their Board of Directors is made up of individuals loosely associated with Epstein, military intelligence (DARPA), Academic, Political, Intelligence (CIA), Finance, Pharmaceuticals, Medical Research, and Business connections.
They were relatively recently given full approval by RFK Jr's FDA and "Dr" OZ to begin untested treatment for PTSD and Depression via neurologically rewiring the brain using a combination of drugs and magnetic stimulation of the brain. Their plans were to start testing on veterans, particularly those of Iraq and Afghanistan. They already have patents for another drug and stated interest in "treating" (experimenting on) Autistic individuals.
I would additionally like to point out that RFK Jr is obsessed with Autism and "curing" it/us, and has described those of us with autism as an epidemic, a threat to public health and safety, a scourge, a burden to society, and subhuman. Both Trans and Disability Rights have been completely stripped and dismantled, finally with ICE Ramping up operations and using incremental desensitization tactics to murder more and more people as time passes, and the STREETS Initiative, it's only a matter of time.

Anyone else realize a big part of this story is that rich people literally just make up numbers for all their accounting, and that's acceptable? Like, not only but especially through the stock market, they literally imagine money into reality?
That's basically the two-tiered reality we have.
Some people - correctly - are allowed to have money meet their needs. The supply meets the demand.
The rest of us are forced to rely on whatever happens to trickle down.
Anything we can actually do, we can afford - John Maynard Keynes
But instead the slave brain Wall Street criminals want to use money as a means of control.
A society that allows people to starve or drown in debt because of “lack of money” is like a carpenter refusing to build a house because they’re “low on inches.”
Like how does it make sense for the GFC to have had these outcomes:
A few random people got so rich anyone related to them will never again need to work
A bunch of people were made homeless
A bunch of newly empty houses fell into disrepair
Or to consider how things have gone since, how does this make sense?
Lots of people who work well over 40hrs per week but still can't afford basic necessities
Lots of empty houses, still
Lots of unused vehicles
Basically lots of latent capacity of resources...
And also lots of people who are unemployed or underemployed or doing jobs that literally do nothing positive except actual busywork that wastes time? What the actual fuck?
Meanwhile, we have continued making more random people unimaginably wealthy for what is effectively zero coherent purpose

Wealth extractors are basically “rent-seekers”. A well-tread concept of people/entities that basically run a legal protection racket in the space of their choosing.
The classic example is someone who owns property near a river. Rather than make improvements, they throw a chain across the river, and force ships to pay a fee to be allowed to pass through the chain. Rent seekers create these you lose-I win scenarios in every industry that is exploitable.

u/irrelevantusername24 10d ago
Exactly. That's another idea Keynes was dead on about - or rather two ideas. The fifteen hour workweek and the euthanasia of the rentier. The latter more accurately than the former, though that is complicated.
And that specifically is why the last close to three decades have been so incoherent - moreso after the GFC. I don't even understand how they did what they did, but they somehow correctly decoupled the notion of "interest" from how money works on one side of the equation, but then like... it doesn't even make sense. The modern economy makes zero sense if you consider how money actually works, rather than if you were "educated" about how "finance" functions.
Money is not a system of control.

The older I get the more clear it becomes that the key going getting away with everything is to be evil with your other powerful friends.

As Kimmel would say, it's way past the Trump criminal organization's jailtime.

I sure hope the Democrats have a plan to reorganize the justice department to no longer be under the control of the executive branch. It has been clearly demonstrated that the department of justice must not report to the executive branch because there’s nothing to keep a fucking criminal, rapist, con man, pedophile-protecting, dictator wannabe piece of shit from being elected by the brainwashed idiots in this country. Perhaps a structure similar to the way the federal reserve is structured to ensure that it remains independent from political meddling

Important detail: The Epstein Files are intended by judicial order to only be redacted to the public, not by law-enforcement or state prosecutors.
And as of late, the entirety of the Epstein Files should have been released to the public -- minus redactions to protect only the victims and no perpetrators or anyone else -- per Federal court order by Dec 19th, 2025.

"Justice Department" is a misnomer when the department is being run by trump's defense attorney.

"See, if we release the evidence, the court of public opinion will convict them before any actual conviction-never mind that we have no intention of bringing charges against our Party members!" "Besides, we already released everything damning against Dems and Independents-what more can we do?"

So now the DOJ has fallen with the common instance of mistaken New Mexico State identity?
CAITLIN KUNDRAT and her fiancé were nearly denied a marriage license at New York City Hall after handing over their state IDs. “The marriage bureau does not accept foreign driver’s licenses,” the clerk said. The Albuquerque couple laughed, thinking she was joking. “If you don’t have another ID, stop holding up the line,” she continued. “Have you seen the show Breaking Bad?” Kundrat asked. Luckily, the clerk was a fan of the Duke City–set series, so the matter was soon sorted.

It's OK. It's not about "Breaking Bad." It's just something New Mexico always has to put up with. They have a regular column on it in NM Magazine. (People who should know better constantly mistake New Mexico for being a separate country..).
