I'm reading that Epstein favored Democrats with his political donations, not so much to Republicans. Is what you are reading implying the dems who received donations from Epstein also frequented his little girl diddling parties too?

Is what you are reading implying the dems who received donations from Epstein also frequented his little girl diddling parties too? Not implying anything, just dollars donated. Since 1990, Epstein has donated $147,426 to various Democrats and $18,250 to Republicans, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. Chuck Schumer, Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush, and Bob Dole each received thousands. www.businessinsider.com/jeffrey-epstein-politicians-connections-donations-2019-7

WOW! An average donation to Democrats of $5,083 per year.
Epstein's net worth was estimated to be $1 billion.

trump: "I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose any voters, okay?" Jeff Epstein was housed in the Metropolitan Correctional Center located in Manhattan. Manhattan; the same city where Fifth Avenue is located. I'm starting to see a strong connection here.

Clinton isn't in power. Clinton isn't running the DOJ who is in charge of the Federal prison he was in. William Barr is. Clinton didn't have motive AND opportunity. This administration did. This administration constantly praises dictators who have people killed. If you believe the Clinton's are still not the most powerful political couple in America, with power to do anything, I will sell you a bridge in Brooklyn right now. Has nothing to do with the democrats any more. This is shear political power as in how Putin does thing in Russia. Both make people disappear without any pushback.

Yesterday I noticed on ABC and NBC he was called a "millionaire". Way short of a billionaire. Not sure why they reported like that, because when he was arrested almost all news agencies called him a billionaire. I am not saying any conspiracy, just wonder why the change in the amount of net worth.

It's possible the various sources citing Epstein's net worth vary by how they calculate it based on limited public information. Either way, the guy was worth more than a buck.

Supposedly by suicide. Wasn't he was supposed to be on suicide watch? My first thought is, how convenient for the Trump Administration. Maybe convenient for Bill Clinton, Hmmmmm, where was hillary?? you know how people die that cross her! Probably the same number as everyone else. A guy I worked with that I didn't like was killed when a hubcap came off a bus and hit him. A lady I worked with died from cancer. A guy whose job I advocated eliminating because he didn't do anything died mysteriously in his house - it is claimed to be a heart attack. My boss who didn't give me a promotion had a mysterious stroke, with no other health issues. A guy who was in my final group project died in a motorcycle accident. My neighbor was killed in a hit and run. A different neighbor was shot by his brother in law. A classmate committed suicide. I'm sure there are others.

That doesn't say much for President Trump. You know, draining the swamp, locking her up....and on and on and on. Or...does his base simply have to agree with EVERYTHING he states....or he will turn his wrath on them? "For the last 3 years I have fully supported this President," Scarramucci said on Twitter early Sunday. "Recently he has said things that divide the country in a way that is unacceptable. So I didn't pass the 100% litmus test. Eventually he turns on everyone and soon it will be you and then the entire country."www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/scaramucci-fires-back-at-trump-he-will-turn-on-everyone-and-then-entire-country/ar-AAFEBNG?ocid=spartanntp

Rich people influence elections through Super Pac Donations and Lobbying. What they officially donate to the parties is not relevant IMHO.
Does anyone else think whatever Attorney General Barr Says is not trustworthy? Is anyone calling for him to resign - I haven't been following closely, but seems that Suicide in Jail is almost entirely preventable. That the conditions were set up to allow him to commit suicide, or be silenced,seems to be either an inside job, or gross incompetence? Imho, they are not that incompetent.

The rich and powerful always make sure that BOTH sides of their bread is buttered. Even Trump donated plenty of money to the democrats. What's your point?

The Fox News Rundown podcast says he was taken off suicide watch, AND the prison did not follow procedure.

so, CBS news is reporting that #1 screams/shrieks were heard from Epstein's cell the night he died #2 one of the guards wasn't actually a trained/licensed guard #3 His death was announced on 4chan/8chan before it was made public.

No offense on the Clintons, but their time has been & gone. The ones who have the most to fear, are those currently in power.

I really don't pay attention to that approach. I can't even remember all the maybes anymore, since he got into office. As far as I'm concerned, he is well able to take care of himself. As an aside, I think the democrats are over playing it too long, and the effectiveness is reduced for energizing their voter base. Too many times where it came to nothing, in regards to Trump.
