How a future Trump Cabinet member gave a serial sex abuser the deal of a lifetime
Palm Beach multimillionaire Jeffrey Epstein, 54, was accused of assembling a large, cult-like network of underage girls — with the help of young female recruiters — to coerce into having sex acts behind the walls of his opulent waterfront mansion as often as three times a day, the Town of Palm Beach police found.
The eccentric hedge fund manager, whose friends included former President Bill Clinton, Donald Trump and Prince Andrew, was also suspected of trafficking minor girls, often from overseas, for sex parties at his other homes in Manhattan, New Mexico and the Caribbean, FBI and court records show.
- He only did 13th months the worstcunt. Friends in low places, he should have got life.PhanLo
- That’s insane.Ramanisky2
- I dont find the story insane. But i do find relevance in the headline. No where in the story did i find "future trump cabinet member"********
- i have no intention of calling the story credibility into question. Just the headline accusations.********
- if i recall didn't trump insinuate bill was part of pedo flights on campaign trail. but no real strong media reporting.********
- Its this media that I question. First a misleading headline and not much of a whisper when brought up.********
- I cant say without a doubt what is real what Im not directly connected to. But this has some BS smell to it. Not that you can back any of it up yuekit********
- just saying it doesn't smell right especially based on the headline.********
- The guy who let him off with a super light sentence is now Trump’s labor secretary. It’s in the first sentence of the article :)yuekit
- The story does seem slightly insane to me. Not only did he only get 13 months sentence, he got to leave prison and go work in his normal office everyday.yuekit
- And then the NYC DA (a Dem) tried to convince a judge to remove his sex offender status. Seems obvious some strings were being pulled for this guy.yuekit
- Oh sry ukit my bad. I thought he was a future cabinet member. You search the future/cabinet words and find 0 mentions in article it confused me********
- but still the headline. A "future" trump guy. So the content is before the pick. And the dirty content is of a non trump pick character********
- The guy that trump insinuated hooked bill up with under age prostitutes on flights...i still see something wrong in the way the article is written********
- Wouldn't it be more precise and on point to focus on how a political dirtbag with dealings got off like most political dirtbags do.********
- Can even ignore if evidence points to certain dirtbag dealings they might not also link to other insinuations. But jsut keep it about********
- the political injustice of the well connected vs trying to relate it to buzz worthy trump for clicks********
- im tired of sensationalist journalism that caters to clicks. Write a well balanced piece on power and the parties involved. Focus on an idea********
- a simple one of power. its ability to corrupt and use evidence based on this case on how it corrupts absolutely. follow up with a reminder on why its********
- better for limited power and to check control. journalism has turned to entertainment. i think this is written for clicks not journo IMHO********
- Both Clinton and Trump are/were friends with Jeffrey Epstein so it's not at all a stretch to connect Trump to him.yuekit
- If they were friends why'd he use "russia" to to ruin hilary? again i think the article woudl be best written as a non partisan piece********
- but one that looks at abuse of power and corruption, you can tie it into both parties abuses about how they are no different********
- these political figures stand for nothing not even friends when its about the show and display to advance careers. its an act********
- Eh what...it's a simple fact that the guy in the article cut a deal for Epstein, was then appointed by Trump to run the Labor Department.yuekit
- Given that the Epstein story is old news (although strangely uncovered by media at the time), the Trump connection is what makes it newsworthy.yuekit
