So the Epstein bust means Democratic 'faves' may roll out of the woodwork?
2019-07-08
[American Thinker] The bust of Bill Clinton's buddy and airplane-mate Jeffrey Epstein, monickered by Forbes as "Palm Beach pervert," for sex trafficking in underage girls, is a complex one. The news is speculative about whether Epstein was being protected by Robert Mueller's special counsel's office, and why the Department of Justice acted now, given that he's been problematic for years. There's also his role as a bigfoot Democrat donor, same as Ed Buck and other perverts who've financed the Democrats. A while back, I made a list here. But one thing's pretty clear, based on a tweet by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's daughter Christine: Democrats knew.

Here's the Washington Examiner report:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s daughter said that some favorite figures of both the Right and Left may be implicated in the sex trafficking case alleged against billionaire Jeffrey Epstein.

"This Epstein case is horrific and the young women deserve justice. It is quite likely that some of our faves are implicated but we must follow the facts and let the chips fall where they may ‐ whether on Republicans or Democrats," Christine Pelosi tweeted Saturday after news of Epstein's arrest broke.

And that's got to be a house-on-fire crisis for Democrats, too. It sounds like all kinds of Democrats are going to be found in Epstein's little black book of clients, not just Bill Clinton.

President Trump, by contrast, banned the pervert from his Mar-a-Lago club years ago. So much for pinning the scandal on Trump as Democrats had hoped.

Why would Christine, who's probably tweeting as a proxy to her mother the way daughter Alexandra also seems to do, say something like that? Up until now, most of us thought it was just Bill and Jeff, a disgusting partnership based on trips to the Dominican Republic.

Christine reveals that Democratic "faves" are involved, and not only were they involved, Pelosi & Co. knew about it... and did nothing. That may not be what Christine meant to reveal. But it sure looks like that's what's coming down the pike.

#22  There has been a report that Comey's daughter initiated this.
This suggests the possibility that Comey himself senses the walls closing in on him and that he will be arrested. In that case this could be a signal from him that if he goes down he will take lots of others down too.
These others would be Democrats he had been protecting.
If so I would not sell his family life insurance.

And justifiably so I might add.

#14  I predict, aside from Epstein (maybe), that nothing will happen and no one will go to jail.

Thus it always has been among the rich and famous and will happen in this case.

I'm very disillusioned by the justice system.

#13  Since the FBI and CIA seem to have no problem appropriating state drivers' license pictures for facial recognition, it seems like not much of a leap to take already-existing technology that monitors social networks and just keep an eye on who communicates with who.

Or would that be a bridge too far suddenly?

#12  See "Mole Hunts"

You think the 'call chain' has begun?
I wondered at the canceled trip of Pence.

#11  Maybe the Democrats are preparing their base for a big gambit play where very important Democrats will be deliberately sacrificed in order to assuredly destroy the Trump presidency.

#8  I already saw a write up yesterday that tried to tie Trump to this, calling him a friend and neighbor, as a gotcha for the election.

I'm expecting more such as time goes on.

#7  A quick search suggests there is no statute of limitations for human trafficking at the federal level. Add that it’s sex trafficking, and they were jailbait, and he is probably toast.

#6  There is no statute of limitations in the court of public opinion. If they are guilty, they should be shamed at a minimum.
