An interesting tidbit is that the Trump administration made its announcement on the Epstein “non-case” after Netanyahu’s latest visit to Washington. From Philip Giraldi at unz.com:
What goes on in Washington is underappreciated for those of us who like a bit of humor mixed in with our politics. This past week we have been treated to a whole series of malapropisms coming out of the mouth of President Donald Trump, including the questioning of the president of Liberia Joseph Boakai by Trump over how he speaks such excellent English. “Such good English,” Trump said. “Where did you learn to speak so beautifully? In Liberia? That’s very interesting. Where were you educated? Where? In Liberia? Well, that’s very interesting. It’s beautiful English. I have people at this table who can’t speak nearly as well.” Trump presumably was not briefed on the fact that Liberia was founded by the United States to give a home to freed African-American slaves in the early 1800s and became a nation in 1847. English is its official language.
But far better than that brief interlude has been the week-long battle over releasing the “client lists” and other documents and material ostensibly relating to the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. Epstein became an extremely wealthy man with luxury homes in New York City and Palm Beach as well as a ranch in New Mexico and the private Epstein Island in the US Virgin Islands, which can reached only by boat. All his other properties were connected by virtue of his private jetliner the “Lolita Express.” Insofar as can be determined, though not actually demonstrated given the lack of documentation, Epstein may have made his millions through exploitation of pedophilia, recruiting underage girls to submit to rape to sexually service his wealthy male clients, who might then have been blackmailed.
