OK, it’s Sunday, a special just for you and your ‘late’ reading audience.
Let the AA feathers fly and let's have some fun:
"Hello, my name's Pam.
I used to be a sassy waitress with a really short fuse,
but now I'm AG who likes watching the stock market.
Thank you for letting me join the meeting."
"Hello, my name’s Gary, I'm a dentist and I wear a dress.
Thank you for letting me join the meeting."
And to the two others seated in the room:
Pam says "please introduce yourselves".
"Hello, my name's Bill C, my momma had me 4 years before my daddy married my mom". Fidelity's been an issue in our family."
And Pam says "Thank you Bill C, and next?"
"Hello, my name is also Bill, you can call me Billy G. Would anyone like a Tic Tac?"
Bill C to Gary: "Hey Gary, nice dress. I've got a stunning picture of me wearing a blue one. And what's with the Elmer Fudd pop rifle?"
Pam interrupts: "Hey Blue Dress, I’m running the meeting here. Raise your hand before speaking". Otherwise “Zip it”.
Bill C. mumbles" "Well, we can clearly see who wears the pants around here."
Gary chimes in: "Hey Tic tac, have you ever worn a dress? And I'm originally from Canada, so our hero is Dudley Do-right. The pop rifle? Best one can do in a small Canadian town on short notice."
Bill C blurts out: "Taking one look at Tic Tac, it appears he'd need a trainer bra to go with a dress".
Billy G/Tic Tac cuts back in: "I tried one one once. Learned about it while watching online videos. Had to wait up until my (then) wife went off to bed. Think I gave her too many Tic Tacs."
Gary jumps in: "Hey Pants, do you need a bra? I"m only asking since your hair color looks like it might be fake."
Pam condescendingly: "Hey Pop Gun in a Dress, my hair is totally natural. I'm considered a "beach blond".
Bill C mumbles again: "Looks like she got the 'ea' of beach confused with 'it'.
Bill G: "Come on Blue Dress, leave Pants alone. She said ‘Zip it’. Bet you told Monica just the opposite. After all, your hair looks like you got caught in one of St. Pedo Isle's 'hot tubs' during an electrical storm”.
Bill C: "Hey Tic Tac, where'd you get those glasses? Coke bottle bottoms? Bet the only way your wife married you, she must have had vision worse than yours, and likely no sense of smell either. What kind of cologne are you wearing, Eau du dead goat?
Gary: "Hey Pants, why aren't you coming to our rescue? Can't you see we're all just victims here?"
Pam: "If you'd had paid more attention to the Stock Markets, you'd likely never have become a victim. I'm calling this meeting adjourned."
Bill C. "See you all next week. Mind if I bring my wife? She's even more versed in doublespeak than I am."
The Comedy Central montage sounds even better. I have only seen excerpts, individually, with questioner-to-Bondi cuts. Cutting straight from one Bondi blunder to the next is comedy genius. A cornucopia of muff fluff bluffs.
You are right that the Democrats never can behave in these hearings. “I’m reclaiming my time!” again.” However, that’s not all. In the first quarter, the courts were FoI’D by Bondi and the President, but would not unseal the files. Later, documents were released. (Since my only interest is whether Epstein was killed, I read a couple emails. In releasing the 2nd batch, Blanche advised the crowd that files would be redacted and why, also that many would not be happy after reading them. The administration did what they said they would. In the meantime, there have been other indictments, given the DHI findings, the Russia Hoax and the Artic Frost investigation. No prior administration (Merrick Garland) has even mentioned the case. He focused on Trump’s bankruptcy and incarceration. ITS OVER at this stage UNLESS there is a warrant for someone’s arrest due to sexual misconduct with minors. It is not like they are going to disappear. I’m not sure Lutnick committed a crime, except he may have lied about his business assn with Epstein in the Obama years.
Bottom line, this is not what I want to see the President or AG focused on (unless the investigation reveals an indictment requiring the AG’s attn. )
Pam Bondi and Kash Patel are very weak links in the Trump team. They have been so from the very beginning. I am pretty sure Patel was a Devin Nunes selection foisted on Lutnick's screening process. Bondi is someone else's favoritism selection which could be anyone of a number of supporters. Both are well below the level of Bessent, Rubio and other key figures. Tulsi Gabbard is a true star with her quiet yet deep dismantling of deep state operatives. I wish we saw Bondi replaced by someone like Gabbard!!
Patel's selection was repayment for loyalty, patriotism and the personal assaults he endured during the Russia-gate hoax. Patel is smart, just not street-smart at the FBI level. But we do not want another self-serving, America-be-damned Jim Comey, either
I think there is more at play, than meets the eye. Both Patel and Bongino spoke truth before they were installed in their positions. Something was held over their heads one might assume. Bongino resigned seems to indicate he still possesed some integrity rather than continue the charade.
Patel still thinks he can still be constructive to bring about what many have hoped for. Bondi is a loyalist and willingly does the bidding of the forces I do not know, but suspect.
Bongino is just too outspoken. You have to be a little political when playing within politics. Otherwise, the other side will hang out your leader to dry (Trump). "Don't feed the animals" it says at the zoo. Same applies here.
Brian, I'm going toss-in another possibility. If Massie has seen this, it is likely Bongino has too. It might explain some of Bongino's behavior.
“Last night I received a flash drive containing the complete list of files belonging to Jeffrey Epstein. Everything is there: every billionaire, every campaign donor, every single person. Now let me explain why you haven’t heard anything about this in the media. Because they are all in there. They will do everything to prevent these documents from being made public. Epstein was far more than just a pedophile; he was an intelligence asset. He was part of a blackmail operation used to control billionaires, politicians, and world leaders. If this ever sees the light of day, they system as we know it will collapse. The public has a right to see the truth and I am not afraid to share it.” Rep Thomas Massie, Wednesday, February 11.
Someone who is currently in the administration serving as U.S. Assistant AG for the Civil Rights Division, Harmeet Dhillon, would have been a far better choice for Attorney General of the USA. She is one ‘smart cookie’, a civil rights attorney, from California. At least people know who she is and are aware of the work she has done. She did a good interview with Tucker Carlson May 21, 2025.
I had never even heard of Blonde Barbie Bondi before she became AG. She’s pretty next to awful in her job.
Harmeet was my choice, if I had a say, but I don't. She is the shrewdest attorney I have ever seen. I also wanted Harmeet for the RNC head, but she didn't get that, either
She is very smart, knows the law. Way better than Blonde Barbie Bondi. Plus I get the impression that she knows how to ‘manage’ staff and the people under her. After all she practiced law out here in Commifornia!
True but IMO part, maybe most of, the problem is that Patel and Bondi are swamp creatures. As were Barr and Sessions. In a way upper echelon law enforcement, maybe especially lawyers, cannot overcome their biases in favor of the existing order.
Kash Patel wrote the Nunes Memo for Devon Nunes to reveal the truth about the Russia Hoax. He was also Trump’s Chief of staff with the Pentagon. He’s been both Prosecutor and Defense for the US government. . So odd to hear people question whether he’s the man for the job. He knows where to find the burn bags in SCIFS and every other piece of evidence hidden by former employees.
Yes, he did all that and it remains obvious that in his current role he i a very weak supporter of the already known truths of issues he was to handle. He seemed to execute well when he was not the leader of the unraveling at hand, but now seems weak, like a deer-in-the-headlights. He does not have a grasp of the key fundamentals to a level he can articulate off-the-cuff. He is more like an individual who believes the winners(like him) can simply enjoy partying, enjoying the spoils of office, rather that rolling up shirt sleeves and doing the hard work he was selected to do. A big disappointment like Bondi.
I read something yesterday that was thought provoking. That this was an elaborately choreographed dance. By holding out and holding out, the Democrats finally began to yell for the release. When the files were released to Congress, members were given laptops of the files that were documenting their search patterns. So each person now has a digital footprint of who they were searching for. It may or may not be true, but if it is, we are surely not seeing the whole picture here. TBH, there is so much structural crumbling going on, it's hard to focus on just one thing, so watching how this plays out is fascinating.
It is. They were furious yesterday to learn their searches were tracked. I thought it hilarious that they dared pull the “how dare you track a Congress member!” cr*p after what we found out Biden’s DOJ did to the Republicans in Congress.
There is nothing that can explain that her DOJ has never met with the victims. It is not possible to conduct a serious investigation of a criminal operation without questioning each eye witness. DJT needs to fire her immediately and replace her with someone who has Gabbard’s ethics, demeanor and competence. Otherwise, his entire administration loses significant credibility. I hope he will act swiftly on this. The midterms are crucial.
Every victim sitting behind her have been nothing short of props the past decade, used when politically relevant. Being called survivors is a stretch once you look into each one’s past, and what their activity has been in regards to exposing (or not) the Epstein files/issue all these years. Not a single one of them was a child when they were “trafficked”. ALL of them were over the age of 21, and each has received a LOT of money at various times for their roles that they are playing in this - so they are not representative of the true victims we need to vindicate, and the administration knows this.
Excellent Juju. Excellent. In addition many of the "victims" recruited others which makes them offenders as well if indeed consensual sex is an offense. Lastly Musk has offered to indemnify them if they name names. To date none have.
Bondi could handled the question by stating the number of women and men who were eye witnesses that they have interviewed, thus putting the props in their place and also informing the public that her DOJ is actually doing their job. Her answers completely destroyed her credibility with me, and I'm a voter who wants the Republicans to keep a majority after the midterm elections. Just because the Dems are playing games doesn't give Bondi a pass to do so as well. I think it's good to be held to a higher standard, not only by the public at large but by the team one is on. Competence includes being savvy, and vice versa.
I can appreciate your perspective and I also thought about it that way for a bit myself. But then I wondered if exposing that they have indeed spoken to the TRUE survivors, (the ones who were in their young or mid teens when abused and who never took part in trafficking the others the way many phony victims sitting behind her did,) if they really are talking to those victims then it gives away some of their hand. It might also put some of those victims in danger. Maybe they have to instead take the public beating and berating while they hold their cards close to their chest? I know we want more out of them, but we have already seen twice what happens in the current swamp environment when they go after people we all think is a clear open-shut case (like the Don Lemon horror of liberal judges not agreeing to issue warrants, and when a grand jury does the judges letting ALL those arrested out free on bail, or the seditious six getting off scott-free by a liberal grand jury, etc.) and it’s not a typical environment for true justice. When they try to move quickly that is what happens. We have a very corrupt judiciary, so they have to weave carefully to get real justice.
So if we really feel Epstein abusers are the worst of the worst and we want to nail them, we really can’t go in guns a blazing and throwing our cards on the table.
I’m not 100% certain that’s what’s happening, but I’m far less certain they are covering anything up for truly guilty parties.
I’m not ready to jump on an anti-DOJ/FBI (anti-Bondi/Patel) bandwagon still. Not with what I’m seeing with other cases that ARE very much clear and unmessy and STILL can’t get quick justice. They are in a swamp packed with crocodiles trying to eat them while they are diligently trying to do their jobs in SEVERAL different critical areas, and those of us holding up their armor are now criticizing them for every step they take or word they say. The angst and frustration of being in their shoes must be unreal. Very few people could do it and maintain the strength needed.
Sounds like you haven't perused the (released, admittedly) files enough to fully appreciate the squalor, the banal self-satisfaction, the smug pretense holding that the dubious glitterati are engaged in respectable, not to mention momentous, activities that makes for trauma all by itself. Those who have perused have empathy not only for the survivors, of any age, but everyone else among the rubbernecking community who have themselves been traumatized by being stared right in the face by the lame, useless, pretentious posing of these prominent chuffs.
The Democrats were in complete control of the Epstein Files for four years under Joe Biden. They had full access and could have revealed anything they wanted in those four years. They didn't. That tells me there is a lot more in those files that would indict Democrat leadership than the GOP. This is all theater to distract from the real issues which Trump is trying to address
Pedophilia is a real issue. Anyone with a pre-teen daughter, granddaughter, niece or grandniece knows this, not to mention anyone who has seen the music list for a public high school guitar class. If Trump's DOJ doesn't pursue this issue in a sincere way, it will be a real liability in the midterms and in 2028. This may be the issue that the public finally holds all the politicians on both sides of the aisle accountable on. It may be an issue that both ordinary Dem voters and ordinary Republican voters hold similar views on. Both parties have swept it under the rug for 20+ years. What matters now is how it's dealt with now.
This is an excellent point on "structural crumbling". Yes, the Democrat party helped build and benefited from the Deep State. That includes lobbyists, socialist-theoretical academics, the banker-Wall Street elites and Democrat politicians undermining of the American Constitution which guarantees Equal Justice Under the Law. The Jan6 judicial abuses are one example. Sanctuary Cities are another. Mamdani's election and promise to bring Marxism to America is a third. The lack of voting security (photo IDs) is another. The super-structure of America's subversion was built by Barack Obama and carried on by the zombie Joe Biden (but run by Obama acolytes in the Cabinet). It is hard to dismantle this super-structure when it is propped up by DC careerists who do not want the public in control, but want their elite coterie to run America
I do not think the Deep State is by any means exclusively a Democrat creation. And it started before, way before, Obama. It was just let off the chain by the Patriot Act and Obama exploited it for different purposes than did his Republican predecessors.
You say fascinating, I say distracting. It is highly unlikely that we, the plebes, will see justice meted out in our lifetimes. Case in point, the JFK assassination and the official response. The swamp does one thing well. The subject doesn't matter. Kicking the can down the road through delays, subterfuge, lies, etc., applies to all "problematic" issues.
Honestly, at this moment in time I couldn't care less about the Epstein files. Why hasn't Ilahn Omar been arrested? Why hasn't Tim Walz been arrested? Why hasn't ONE SINGLE Congressrat been arrested for smurfing campaign funds? There are EASY WINS.
The Trump admin is being destroyed by three people: Bondi, Thune and Johnson. Pathetic.
These are further important proofs that Bondi needs to be replaced, and the new AG needs to prosecute these cases as well as the criminals in the Epstein operation. The Epstein operation still matters because child trafficking is still going on, and it is every bit as destructive to our way of life as the economic fraud is.
All good questions. I’m not much of a Bondi fan & would like to see maybe Gabbard replace her, But building cases that will stick takes time. So far over 70 have been indicted for fraud in Minnesota, & over 40 sentenced. That’s a start. Patel’s fbi has found thousands of the missing kids with Homan’s help. Not trying to make excuses, ( especially that he states Epstein offed himself) but there are processes that have to be followed, especially when the judicial system is so corrupt & against Trump’s DOJ. The non victim redacted names need to be unredacted - no matter who they are. I think the fact that Lutnick’s name has been seen is a sign more untouchables will be outed.
I do care. Not about what so far is consensual sex between adults for the most part but about the tentacles produced thereby. Which I think are both far reaching and deep into government, academia, business - everything. That cannot be unintentional. From what I have read (discarding for the moment the very QANON sounding stuff) Epstein was a fixer, a very, very, very well connected fixer. If you were a well-known person with a problem he was the man to call. From fairly modest beginnings. So how? My intuition says he was handled by Maxwell and controlled by a cabal of intelligence agencies. A Deep State at the global level.
If these victims are willing to face the court while hounding Bondi why can’t they face their rapists publicly? Or why can’t they all meet with Trump and Bondi? I’ll tell you why. They have their gravy train now, signed NDAs protecting their monsters…and I’m willing to bet some of these women in the shadows recruited some very young women. It’s easy to cheerlead behind the scenes.
Note: This is my opinion above 👆🏾but these are facts below👇🏿
After Jeffrey Epstein's death in 2019, numerous victims filed lawsuits against his estate. These lawsuits aimed to seek justice and compensation for the sexual abuse and trafficking they endured. The Epstein estate was valued at approximately $635 million at the time of his death, but much of this wealth was tied up in trusts, complicating the claims process.
Compensation Fund
In response to the claims, the Epstein Victims’ Compensation Fund (VCP) was established. This fund allowed survivors to file claims against Epstein's estate without going through lengthy court battles. The VCP distributed over $121 million to 135 survivors before it closed in 2021.
Settlement Details
In addition to the compensation fund, the Epstein estate settled several lawsuits. Notably, in December 2022, the estate settled with the U.S. Virgin Islands government for $105 million, addressing claims related to Epstein's criminal activities. Furthermore, Deutsche Bank agreed to pay $75 million in May 2023 to settle allegations that it facilitated Epstein's sex trafficking.
Conclusion
Overall, the Epstein estate has faced significant legal challenges, resulting in substantial settlements aimed at compensating victims and addressing the harm caused by Epstein's actions.
Overview of Settlements
Many victims of Jeffrey Epstein who sued his estate have reached settlements. These agreements often include confidentiality clauses, commonly known as Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs).
Purpose of NDAs
Confidentiality: NDAs are designed to protect the privacy of the victims and the details of the settlements.
Prevent Disclosure: Victims may be restricted from publicly naming their alleged perpetrators or discussing the specifics of their cases.
Implications of NDAs
Limited Information: While NDAs help protect victims, they also limit the public's access to information about the extent of Epstein's network and the identities of other potential perpetrators.
Legal Boundaries: Victims who sign NDAs may face legal consequences if they disclose information covered by these agreements.
(Can you see how this is an utter and complete clown show? If you do not know how NDAs work…then learn.
And news alert, you’ll never get access to them unless victims challenge them in a court.
You have victims and their perpetrators and now you have attorneys. Which ones are playing tricks on you?)
Good points. Also, not all the women were victims. Some were adult women who knew the job & were willing for the money. Like always there are grifters when it comes to a payday. The real victims deserve compensation , protection & sympathy.
Congress should make those NDAs unenforceable so that the victims could speak out about their abuse. No pedo protection, but they’re all “friends” right?
And why is it so necessary to “protect the victims” by redacting their names in the documents? (In certain situations I can understand it or if they don’t want to be named.) Many have come forward and done interviews and they had that whole section at the hearing. So we know who many of them are. But doesn’t redaction really prevent the victims from speaking out about the pervert(s) named in the documents and prevent them from naming names (because they’ll probably get sued)? If the document says (Clinton) got a “massage” from (your name), shouldn’t you be able to say that? Seems to me it protects the perps more than the victims.
You're talking about survivors. The "victims" are those who have delved into the files, and also those who have to endure conservatives rationalizing, deflecting, and victim-blaming to rival anything Bondi did Wednesday. Except these conservatives, for credibility's sake, have to pretend to be normal, centrist-to-liberal, rational people.
Have you ever worked in the legal field? I have for 35 years and during those years I drafted hundreds of NDAs. NDAs protect the guilty and the ones that sign off on them are explained by their counsel and you have that option to accept or not accept. These women knew what they were signing and if they didn’t then maybe they should sue their attorneys. If they want their monsters in jail then they should take it to court so that they can tell their story. Funny how money always changes a person.
Exactly. I agree with you. But what I stated is the truth and so is yours. They are terrified. They still have a choice to make. They made it and now it’s their decision on what they want to do going forward. She didn’t sign an NDA and that’s why they killed her. She was fixing to spill the beans.
* In 2009, Virginia Giuffre received a $500,000 settlement from Jeffrey Epstein.
* This settlement was part of a lawsuit where Giuffre alleged that Epstein had sexually abused her as a minor.
* The agreement included a clause that released Epstein and any potential defendants from future liability.
Implications of the Settlement
* The terms of the 2009 settlement have been argued to potentially affect Giuffre's later lawsuit against Prince Andrew.
* Andrew's legal team claimed that the language in the settlement could bar Giuffre from suing him, even though he was not a party to the original agreement.
Additional Context
* Giuffre has also received other settlements, including an estimated $12 millionfrom Prince Andrew in 2022 to settle her sexual abuse claim against him.
* The 2009 settlement with Epstein was kept confidential until it was unsealed in early 2022, revealing its details and implications for Giuffre's legal battles.
Virginia Giuffre received a $500,000 settlement from Jeffrey Epstein in 2009, but she did not sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) as part of her settlement with Prince Andrew. This means she is free to speak about her experiences if she chooses to do so. (Too late, she’s dead)
Virginia Giuffre received a settlement of $500,000 from Jeffrey Epstein in 2009, which was part of a legal agreement related to her allegations against him. However, she did not sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) as part of her settlement with Prince Andrew in 2022. This absence of an NDA allows her the possibility to speak publicly about her experiences and the alleged abuse she suffered.
You need an explanation for the Crown not enforcing such, after consummating a very generous settlement, before you make a career out of that argument. Not that you should go back to soliciting. Bondi, in British terms, is the world’s premier BARRISTER.
Hey just saying, you sign your name on an NDA, you have to comply or else they will ruin you. I say let them challenge the court and let them tell their story. No one made them sign anything. They made that decision with their counsel.
The Epstein Victims’ Compensation Program was established to provide compensation to survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse, awarding over $121 million to 135 survivors. Additionally, JPMorgan Chase and Deutsche Bank reached settlements totaling $365 million to compensate Epstein's victims.
She triggers so easily and quickly. Reminds me of the first time one of my students was emotionally triggered in an American government class. Nothing she said made sense or had anything to do with the issue the class had been discussing: I believe we had been talking about the division of powers in the Constitution when she went off on us. Bondi also exudes a sense of unearned authority even when she speaks a fact such as the level of Maduro's corruption as though she just heard it for the first time and can't wait to inform the rest of us, in the way eighth grade girls do. Her performance yesterday was embarrassing.
It seems some of Bondi’s mean girl demeanor comes from insecurity. Same with Noem. As if because they are women they need to put forth a “ meaner” facade to prove themselves as strong. This is not meant as a put down, just an opinion & observation. Compare to Homan who took over Minneapolis from Noem - he excludes strength & competence that seems to come naturally.
“Pam Bondi is not confirmed to be a member of the Church of Scientology, though she has had longstanding professional and political ties to the organization.
She attended multiple fundraisers hosted by prominent Scientologists, including a 2014 event in Clearwater, Florida, organized by six high-profile members of the church.
In 2010, she toured Scientology facilities in Clearwater and spoke to members about human trafficking and anti-drug efforts.
Her campaign team described these interactions as involving “like-minded folks sharing the same goals,” particularly around child protection and anti-drug initiatives.
Despite these connections, sources confirm she belongs to an evangelical Protestant church in the Tampa area.
While some online forums suggest she may have been a former member, no credible evidence confirms formal membership.
She has defended her associations, stating her work with the church was focused on shared public safety objectives, not religious affiliation.
Her relationship with Scientology remains a point of scrutiny, particularly given her role as U.S. Attorney General nominee and her recent appointment of a former Greenberg Traurig lawyer—linked to Scientology—into a federal judicial role.”
I don’t know why but that lingers in my mind about her connection to TCoS. I have super radar about The Church of Scientology. I have a twin brother who got swept up with TCoS, and they took a lot of his $$$ for a few years with their ‘auditing process’ on “The Bridge to Total Freedom”. They totally messed with his thinking. He finally left when he realized that all they wanted was his money for “classes” and all their video tape series and literature. And we were older in our 50’s when he got involved with them.
Holy crap that was sooooo cringey! I want to show my wife but can't stand having to experience that level of cringe again lol.
ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED YET?! This is all a show!!
It doesn't matter how many files are released if there is no accountability and no investigation. This is the point that we all need to take in. The Epstein Operation is the tip of the iceberg on how this world is controlled and ruled by a criminal mafia class. Top down blackmail operations that are being coordinated by the intelligence agencies led by the five eyes. That is how this works and that is why no one is going to prison.
In the meantime, thanks for helping us to laugh so we don't cry haha. Have a great weekend everyone!
I wish you were wrong, but my spidey sense is that you are correct. Kabuki theatre at its finest. Highly stylized, dramatic (check ✅ mentally unstable Dems) and the dunce played by the blonde! 😂
Why was the Epstein affair a non issue during the last administration but is such a big deal now? Perhaps I’m being naive but there is more to this than meets the sound bite .
Bondi is not real quick on the draw. It takes her brain too long to form a hard-hitting comeback. She simply is not capable of doing so because she is not naturally witty, by any stretch. I don't see a lot of self-confidence in her, just forced bravado. She just doesn't know her stuff no matter how much she practices in front of the mirror. We keep expecting her to be a Ted Cruz, Bill Shipley, John Kennedy or Bessent and it's just not going to happen. We're spoiled by people like Marco Rubio who can spit out facts rapid-fire like a machine gun without stopping to catch his breath. It's clear she is under an enormous amount of pressure and it shows. She is not the first or only one in this admin without a natural proclivity to shine either.
True, all of it... but it's her JOB. How hard would it be, for example, to say, "We had three million files to review and we made some mistakes. We're correcting them as soon as we're aware of them." No, it's THE DOW! YOU'RE A LOSER! Seriously, did you watch??? I can't even.
Oh geez no. See? So not quick thinking at all. I don't think she has any common sense either now that I think about it. That's why I love you so much...you do the watching so I don't have to. You are so much more patient than I am. I did try but it lasted about 2 minutes. She just gets on my last nerve and before you know it my neighbor is knocking on the door going, "We all heard you yelling at the tv again. Who is it this time?"😏
I think she needs to be replaced. There was a time, long ago, that I thought she would make a great AG and Kash Patel would be great in the role he now holds but now I look at them with the Texas term, “all hat and no saddle.” These two are not up to the task.
I disagree. The accomplishments of the FBI the past 12 months are unheard of in history. They don’t get highlighted as they should, but it’s remarkable that any of it was possible if he weren’t effective.
Patel said last September there was "no credible information" that Epstein was trafficking girls to anyone but himself and that he would "bring the case yesterday" if there were. HE HAD THE FILES AT THE TIME. He lost my trust, sorry. And I was a fan!
Right now on the fence about Kash. I completely disagree with his opinion the Epstein offed himself. For all we know he’s still alive & protected somewhere. Maybe fbi gave him to Moussad & said you deal with him. 🤷🏻♀️
I want justice as much as anyone; public hangings would be great! I don't claim to know exactly what's going on, but I'm getting the feeling that Trump is playing the long game here. Every time he tries to downplay the Epstein situation, the Dems scream louder and demand he release the list, right? They hardly have a choice, as their entire platform from the start has been to oppose Trump.
Don't get me wrong, while I generally support Trump, I have some issues with some his actions, especially OWS (and proper use of initial capital letters!).
Pam bondi worked in the attorney general's office in Florida at the time that Epstein got that great deal and she is still listed in some form as a big pharma attorney, through the law firm she's still listed with. She's had her hand involved with Epstein since the beginning, which I believe is 2006. She's an embarrassment to this administration and I don't know if it's possible that anybody could replace her only because Democrats will not approve. Trump's appointees.
This is the issue where Trump loses his base. We hate the fact that they are fucking running cover for the pedophiles that obviously infect our elites. Bondi could be a hero expose all of them and prosecute the ones that can be proven. Yet she runs cover for them. Her attack on Massie was the straw that broke the back.
I saw a few clips on X yesterday but did not watch. After the initial jubilation of the win in Nov 2024 the last year or so has been a slow steady drip of diminished expectations. From a real-ville perspective, the swamp is wide and deep and has its tentacles all over DC. Finding people who are willing to do the job, smart, effective, and not corrupt but have at least some knowledge of how DC works (which was Trump 1.0's problem - there were a lot of dead weight or corrupt people in his orbit) narrows the field by a lot. While Trump 2.0 IS a much better line up there are still some weak links. I suspect the DOJ still has some holdouts from the corrupt era that are slowing Bondi down, and I also have had the sense from the beginning that she is either in over her head or compromised.
There are too many 'tracks' - the world stage, economic policy/the economy, illegals, regulatory strangleholds, the HC debacle, and the waste/fraud/corruption cabal that needs to be dismantled and on and on. Seems to be whack a mole where they are trying to do everything with a clock that keeps ticking toward the midterms.
On balance, there are some great wins in there, but no one in prison yet is very disappointing.
I got a fresh new perspective after the recent DC grand jury ruling about the traitorous six. They cannot operate the way we are all expecting or demanding. They are up against all odds and to win they cannot play the typical moves.
This administration isn’t just David facing a Goliath, it’s David facing a tsunami of evil coming at them as tall as a mountain with the force of a nuclear bomb, and we are all sitting here judging how they spin their sling or which stones they chose to pick up and use as if any of that can make a difference to what they are up against. Only God has the power to equip them and enable them to win the fight. After that DC grand jury, I stopped judging them and started praying for them.
My biggest beef is with Congress failing to codify more of the executive orders. They do love their committee hearings where they can produce 'gotcha' videos for their fundraising and re-election campaigns but it's mostly sound and fury signifying nothing. And you are right, the DC jury pool and justice are 2 diametrically opposed forces. I do wonder how many of Bondi's underlings actually have her back vs working against her.
THAT’S who we all need to be raking over the coals. Not members of this administration. They keep setting it up, even brought a T-stand out to place the ball on, and still Congress swings and misses. Heck most aren’t even swinging. They are just shrugging they forgot to bring their bat and kicking the dirt.
And the remaining rats in the walls of the DOJ and FBI are many. You can’t just focus on doing your job and completing the obvious tasks. You have to first set things up to protect it all from sabotage, and outsmart the rats. I don’t think I’d last a week in a job like that.
Yes, part of the Marxist plan is always overwhelm with lies & corruption. They’ve had decades to spin & embed their evil plans in the judiciary & NGOs funding them. We who have endured want results, specifically accountability that includes punishment. But there is a process that takes time & patience. I’m not a Pollyanna nor an optimist ( realist I think) so this view takes some faith.
Jenna because you were so sweet to find a link for me the other day (yesterday?), here is one for you. “Pam Bondi as a waitress”:
https://www.instagram.com/reel/DUrOBaHgHXB/?igsh=d241a2E3bDc5OTl6
I SPRAINED MY FINGER HITTING THAT HEART! This is so perfect. Wish I'd included it (but pinning so hopefully everyone else will see). TY! :)
Hello, my name's Pam.
I used to be a sassy waitress with a really short fuse,
but now I'm AG who likes watching the stock market.
Thank you for letting me join the meeting.
😂
OK, it’s Sunday, a special just for you and your ‘late’ reading audience.
Let the AA feathers fly and let's have some fun:
"Hello, my name's Pam.
I used to be a sassy waitress with a really short fuse,
but now I'm AG who likes watching the stock market.
Thank you for letting me join the meeting."
"Hello, my name’s Gary, I'm a dentist and I wear a dress.
Thank you for letting me join the meeting."
And to the two others seated in the room:
Pam says "please introduce yourselves".
"Hello, my name's Bill C, my momma had me 4 years before my daddy married my mom". Fidelity's been an issue in our family."
And Pam says "Thank you Bill C, and next?"
"Hello, my name is also Bill, you can call me Billy G. Would anyone like a Tic Tac?"
Bill C to Gary: "Hey Gary, nice dress. I've got a stunning picture of me wearing a blue one. And what's with the Elmer Fudd pop rifle?"
Pam interrupts: "Hey Blue Dress, I’m running the meeting here. Raise your hand before speaking". Otherwise “Zip it”.
Bill C. mumbles" "Well, we can clearly see who wears the pants around here."
Gary chimes in: "Hey Tic tac, have you ever worn a dress? And I'm originally from Canada, so our hero is Dudley Do-right. The pop rifle? Best one can do in a small Canadian town on short notice."
Bill C blurts out: "Taking one look at Tic Tac, it appears he'd need a trainer bra to go with a dress".
Billy G/Tic Tac cuts back in: "I tried one one once. Learned about it while watching online videos. Had to wait up until my (then) wife went off to bed. Think I gave her too many Tic Tacs."
Gary jumps in: "Hey Pants, do you need a bra? I"m only asking since your hair color looks like it might be fake."
Pam condescendingly: "Hey Pop Gun in a Dress, my hair is totally natural. I'm considered a "beach blond".
Bill C mumbles again: "Looks like she got the 'ea' of beach confused with 'it'.
Bill G: "Come on Blue Dress, leave Pants alone. She said ‘Zip it’. Bet you told Monica just the opposite. After all, your hair looks like you got caught in one of St. Pedo Isle's 'hot tubs' during an electrical storm”.
Bill C: "Hey Tic Tac, where'd you get those glasses? Coke bottle bottoms? Bet the only way your wife married you, she must have had vision worse than yours, and likely no sense of smell either. What kind of cologne are you wearing, Eau du dead goat?
Gary: "Hey Pants, why aren't you coming to our rescue? Can't you see we're all just victims here?"
Pam: "If you'd had paid more attention to the Stock Markets, you'd likely never have become a victim. I'm calling this meeting adjourned."
Bill C. "See you all next week. Mind if I bring my wife? She's even more versed in doublespeak than I am."
The Comedy Central montage sounds even better. I have only seen excerpts, individually, with questioner-to-Bondi cuts. Cutting straight from one Bondi blunder to the next is comedy genius. A cornucopia of muff fluff bluffs.
Soooo funny. I adore clever people! TY.
You are right that the Democrats never can behave in these hearings. “I’m reclaiming my time!” again.” However, that’s not all. In the first quarter, the courts were FoI’D by Bondi and the President, but would not unseal the files. Later, documents were released. (Since my only interest is whether Epstein was killed, I read a couple emails. In releasing the 2nd batch, Blanche advised the crowd that files would be redacted and why, also that many would not be happy after reading them. The administration did what they said they would. In the meantime, there have been other indictments, given the DHI findings, the Russia Hoax and the Artic Frost investigation. No prior administration (Merrick Garland) has even mentioned the case. He focused on Trump’s bankruptcy and incarceration. ITS OVER at this stage UNLESS there is a warrant for someone’s arrest due to sexual misconduct with minors. It is not like they are going to disappear. I’m not sure Lutnick committed a crime, except he may have lied about his business assn with Epstein in the Obama years.
Bottom line, this is not what I want to see the President or AG focused on (unless the investigation reveals an indictment requiring the AG’s attn. )
Where's the laugh icon? Oh what a waitress.
Pam Bondi and Kash Patel are very weak links in the Trump team. They have been so from the very beginning. I am pretty sure Patel was a Devin Nunes selection foisted on Lutnick's screening process. Bondi is someone else's favoritism selection which could be anyone of a number of supporters. Both are well below the level of Bessent, Rubio and other key figures. Tulsi Gabbard is a true star with her quiet yet deep dismantling of deep state operatives. I wish we saw Bondi replaced by someone like Gabbard!!
Patel's selection was repayment for loyalty, patriotism and the personal assaults he endured during the Russia-gate hoax. Patel is smart, just not street-smart at the FBI level. But we do not want another self-serving, America-be-damned Jim Comey, either
I think there is more at play, than meets the eye. Both Patel and Bongino spoke truth before they were installed in their positions. Something was held over their heads one might assume. Bongino resigned seems to indicate he still possesed some integrity rather than continue the charade.
Patel still thinks he can still be constructive to bring about what many have hoped for. Bondi is a loyalist and willingly does the bidding of the forces I do not know, but suspect.
Bongino is just too outspoken. You have to be a little political when playing within politics. Otherwise, the other side will hang out your leader to dry (Trump). "Don't feed the animals" it says at the zoo. Same applies here.
Brian, I'm going toss-in another possibility. If Massie has seen this, it is likely Bongino has too. It might explain some of Bongino's behavior.
“Last night I received a flash drive containing the complete list of files belonging to Jeffrey Epstein. Everything is there: every billionaire, every campaign donor, every single person. Now let me explain why you haven’t heard anything about this in the media. Because they are all in there. They will do everything to prevent these documents from being made public. Epstein was far more than just a pedophile; he was an intelligence asset. He was part of a blackmail operation used to control billionaires, politicians, and world leaders. If this ever sees the light of day, they system as we know it will collapse. The public has a right to see the truth and I am not afraid to share it.” Rep Thomas Massie, Wednesday, February 11.

Could be. I would like to have a conversation with him.
They are part of the political sausage.
Pam, be more like Scott Bessent.
Bondi does not have Bessent’s skillset, never will.
Few ever will, which is why Bessant is a billionaire and revered on Wall Street
But they both have good hair.
Like Gavin!! Not much of a claim to fame they believe they are owed.
Someone who is currently in the administration serving as U.S. Assistant AG for the Civil Rights Division, Harmeet Dhillon, would have been a far better choice for Attorney General of the USA. She is one ‘smart cookie’, a civil rights attorney, from California. At least people know who she is and are aware of the work she has done. She did a good interview with Tucker Carlson May 21, 2025.
I had never even heard of Blonde Barbie Bondi before she became AG. She’s pretty next to awful in her job.
https://youtu.be/RFbAQKMZnb4?si=NG1FBS5PPjqJtiQx
Harmeet was my choice, if I had a say, but I don't. She is the shrewdest attorney I have ever seen. I also wanted Harmeet for the RNC head, but she didn't get that, either
She is very smart, knows the law. Way better than Blonde Barbie Bondi. Plus I get the impression that she knows how to ‘manage’ staff and the people under her. After all she practiced law out here in Commifornia!
Yes, she seems better skilled, thinks on her feet. Bondi has been more political animal than a lawyer-type.
True but IMO part, maybe most of, the problem is that Patel and Bondi are swamp creatures. As were Barr and Sessions. In a way upper echelon law enforcement, maybe especially lawyers, cannot overcome their biases in favor of the existing order.
Agree 💯
Kash Patel wrote the Nunes Memo for Devon Nunes to reveal the truth about the Russia Hoax. He was also Trump’s Chief of staff with the Pentagon. He’s been both Prosecutor and Defense for the US government. . So odd to hear people question whether he’s the man for the job. He knows where to find the burn bags in SCIFS and every other piece of evidence hidden by former employees.
Yes, he did all that and it remains obvious that in his current role he i a very weak supporter of the already known truths of issues he was to handle. He seemed to execute well when he was not the leader of the unraveling at hand, but now seems weak, like a deer-in-the-headlights. He does not have a grasp of the key fundamentals to a level he can articulate off-the-cuff. He is more like an individual who believes the winners(like him) can simply enjoy partying, enjoying the spoils of office, rather that rolling up shirt sleeves and doing the hard work he was selected to do. A big disappointment like Bondi.
Trump knew his strengths for years before 2024. That’s why he is in that roll. He gets let go, I’ll remember your assessment.
? DeSantis?
A swamp creature best I can tell.
I read something yesterday that was thought provoking. That this was an elaborately choreographed dance. By holding out and holding out, the Democrats finally began to yell for the release. When the files were released to Congress, members were given laptops of the files that were documenting their search patterns. So each person now has a digital footprint of who they were searching for. It may or may not be true, but if it is, we are surely not seeing the whole picture here. TBH, there is so much structural crumbling going on, it's hard to focus on just one thing, so watching how this plays out is fascinating.
Well THAT would be amazing! (Although can you imagine willingly throwing yourself under the bus like that? Kudos to her if it's true!)
It is. They were furious yesterday to learn their searches were tracked. I thought it hilarious that they dared pull the “how dare you track a Congress member!” cr*p after what we found out Biden’s DOJ did to the Republicans in Congress.
Saw that too, and would explain her approach. I hope it is true and part of a larger sting.
There is nothing that can explain that her DOJ has never met with the victims. It is not possible to conduct a serious investigation of a criminal operation without questioning each eye witness. DJT needs to fire her immediately and replace her with someone who has Gabbard’s ethics, demeanor and competence. Otherwise, his entire administration loses significant credibility. I hope he will act swiftly on this. The midterms are crucial.
Every victim sitting behind her have been nothing short of props the past decade, used when politically relevant. Being called survivors is a stretch once you look into each one’s past, and what their activity has been in regards to exposing (or not) the Epstein files/issue all these years. Not a single one of them was a child when they were “trafficked”. ALL of them were over the age of 21, and each has received a LOT of money at various times for their roles that they are playing in this - so they are not representative of the true victims we need to vindicate, and the administration knows this.
Excellent Juju. Excellent. In addition many of the "victims" recruited others which makes them offenders as well if indeed consensual sex is an offense. Lastly Musk has offered to indemnify them if they name names. To date none have.
Bondi could handled the question by stating the number of women and men who were eye witnesses that they have interviewed, thus putting the props in their place and also informing the public that her DOJ is actually doing their job. Her answers completely destroyed her credibility with me, and I'm a voter who wants the Republicans to keep a majority after the midterm elections. Just because the Dems are playing games doesn't give Bondi a pass to do so as well. I think it's good to be held to a higher standard, not only by the public at large but by the team one is on. Competence includes being savvy, and vice versa.
I can appreciate your perspective and I also thought about it that way for a bit myself. But then I wondered if exposing that they have indeed spoken to the TRUE survivors, (the ones who were in their young or mid teens when abused and who never took part in trafficking the others the way many phony victims sitting behind her did,) if they really are talking to those victims then it gives away some of their hand. It might also put some of those victims in danger. Maybe they have to instead take the public beating and berating while they hold their cards close to their chest? I know we want more out of them, but we have already seen twice what happens in the current swamp environment when they go after people we all think is a clear open-shut case (like the Don Lemon horror of liberal judges not agreeing to issue warrants, and when a grand jury does the judges letting ALL those arrested out free on bail, or the seditious six getting off scott-free by a liberal grand jury, etc.) and it’s not a typical environment for true justice. When they try to move quickly that is what happens. We have a very corrupt judiciary, so they have to weave carefully to get real justice.
So if we really feel Epstein abusers are the worst of the worst and we want to nail them, we really can’t go in guns a blazing and throwing our cards on the table.
I’m not 100% certain that’s what’s happening, but I’m far less certain they are covering anything up for truly guilty parties.
I’m not ready to jump on an anti-DOJ/FBI (anti-Bondi/Patel) bandwagon still. Not with what I’m seeing with other cases that ARE very much clear and unmessy and STILL can’t get quick justice. They are in a swamp packed with crocodiles trying to eat them while they are diligently trying to do their jobs in SEVERAL different critical areas, and those of us holding up their armor are now criticizing them for every step they take or word they say. The angst and frustration of being in their shoes must be unreal. Very few people could do it and maintain the strength needed.
Fascinating. I wish we still had Virginia Giuffre.
Sounds like you haven't perused the (released, admittedly) files enough to fully appreciate the squalor, the banal self-satisfaction, the smug pretense holding that the dubious glitterati are engaged in respectable, not to mention momentous, activities that makes for trauma all by itself. Those who have perused have empathy not only for the survivors, of any age, but everyone else among the rubbernecking community who have themselves been traumatized by being stared right in the face by the lame, useless, pretentious posing of these prominent chuffs.
The Democrats were in complete control of the Epstein Files for four years under Joe Biden. They had full access and could have revealed anything they wanted in those four years. They didn't. That tells me there is a lot more in those files that would indict Democrat leadership than the GOP. This is all theater to distract from the real issues which Trump is trying to address
Longer than that. If they'd had anything on Trump, they would have released it the day he came down the escalator in Trump Tower.
Pedophilia is a real issue. Anyone with a pre-teen daughter, granddaughter, niece or grandniece knows this, not to mention anyone who has seen the music list for a public high school guitar class. If Trump's DOJ doesn't pursue this issue in a sincere way, it will be a real liability in the midterms and in 2028. This may be the issue that the public finally holds all the politicians on both sides of the aisle accountable on. It may be an issue that both ordinary Dem voters and ordinary Republican voters hold similar views on. Both parties have swept it under the rug for 20+ years. What matters now is how it's dealt with now.
The most real issue the western world faces is that the majority of our “leaders” are evil satanic pedophiles. And we haven’t hung any of them yet.
This is an excellent point on "structural crumbling". Yes, the Democrat party helped build and benefited from the Deep State. That includes lobbyists, socialist-theoretical academics, the banker-Wall Street elites and Democrat politicians undermining of the American Constitution which guarantees Equal Justice Under the Law. The Jan6 judicial abuses are one example. Sanctuary Cities are another. Mamdani's election and promise to bring Marxism to America is a third. The lack of voting security (photo IDs) is another. The super-structure of America's subversion was built by Barack Obama and carried on by the zombie Joe Biden (but run by Obama acolytes in the Cabinet). It is hard to dismantle this super-structure when it is propped up by DC careerists who do not want the public in control, but want their elite coterie to run America
I do not think the Deep State is by any means exclusively a Democrat creation. And it started before, way before, Obama. It was just let off the chain by the Patriot Act and Obama exploited it for different purposes than did his Republican predecessors.
You say fascinating, I say distracting. It is highly unlikely that we, the plebes, will see justice meted out in our lifetimes. Case in point, the JFK assassination and the official response. The swamp does one thing well. The subject doesn't matter. Kicking the can down the road through delays, subterfuge, lies, etc., applies to all "problematic" issues.
I read that somewhere too on X. The post specifically mention Jayapal(🤮) who was search supposedly for her own name.
Honestly, at this moment in time I couldn't care less about the Epstein files. Why hasn't Ilahn Omar been arrested? Why hasn't Tim Walz been arrested? Why hasn't ONE SINGLE Congressrat been arrested for smurfing campaign funds? There are EASY WINS.
The Trump admin is being destroyed by three people: Bondi, Thune and Johnson. Pathetic.
These are further important proofs that Bondi needs to be replaced, and the new AG needs to prosecute these cases as well as the criminals in the Epstein operation. The Epstein operation still matters because child trafficking is still going on, and it is every bit as destructive to our way of life as the economic fraud is.
Harmeet Dhillon would be my choice.
All good questions. I’m not much of a Bondi fan & would like to see maybe Gabbard replace her, But building cases that will stick takes time. So far over 70 have been indicted for fraud in Minnesota, & over 40 sentenced. That’s a start. Patel’s fbi has found thousands of the missing kids with Homan’s help. Not trying to make excuses, ( especially that he states Epstein offed himself) but there are processes that have to be followed, especially when the judicial system is so corrupt & against Trump’s DOJ. The non victim redacted names need to be unredacted - no matter who they are. I think the fact that Lutnick’s name has been seen is a sign more untouchables will be outed.
I certainly hope you are right!
You don't need to be a lawyer to be attorney general?
Talking about Gabbard? Good point. Probably do need to be a lawyer, haven’t checked but it makes sense. I assumed Gabbard was one for some reason.
I do care. Not about what so far is consensual sex between adults for the most part but about the tentacles produced thereby. Which I think are both far reaching and deep into government, academia, business - everything. That cannot be unintentional. From what I have read (discarding for the moment the very QANON sounding stuff) Epstein was a fixer, a very, very, very well connected fixer. If you were a well-known person with a problem he was the man to call. From fairly modest beginnings. So how? My intuition says he was handled by Maxwell and controlled by a cabal of intelligence agencies. A Deep State at the global level.
If these victims are willing to face the court while hounding Bondi why can’t they face their rapists publicly? Or why can’t they all meet with Trump and Bondi? I’ll tell you why. They have their gravy train now, signed NDAs protecting their monsters…and I’m willing to bet some of these women in the shadows recruited some very young women. It’s easy to cheerlead behind the scenes.
Note: This is my opinion above 👆🏾but these are facts below👇🏿
After Jeffrey Epstein's death in 2019, numerous victims filed lawsuits against his estate. These lawsuits aimed to seek justice and compensation for the sexual abuse and trafficking they endured. The Epstein estate was valued at approximately $635 million at the time of his death, but much of this wealth was tied up in trusts, complicating the claims process.
Compensation Fund
In response to the claims, the Epstein Victims’ Compensation Fund (VCP) was established. This fund allowed survivors to file claims against Epstein's estate without going through lengthy court battles. The VCP distributed over $121 million to 135 survivors before it closed in 2021.
Settlement Details
In addition to the compensation fund, the Epstein estate settled several lawsuits. Notably, in December 2022, the estate settled with the U.S. Virgin Islands government for $105 million, addressing claims related to Epstein's criminal activities. Furthermore, Deutsche Bank agreed to pay $75 million in May 2023 to settle allegations that it facilitated Epstein's sex trafficking.
Conclusion
Overall, the Epstein estate has faced significant legal challenges, resulting in substantial settlements aimed at compensating victims and addressing the harm caused by Epstein's actions.
Overview of Settlements
Many victims of Jeffrey Epstein who sued his estate have reached settlements. These agreements often include confidentiality clauses, commonly known as Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs).
Purpose of NDAs
Confidentiality: NDAs are designed to protect the privacy of the victims and the details of the settlements.
Prevent Disclosure: Victims may be restricted from publicly naming their alleged perpetrators or discussing the specifics of their cases.
Implications of NDAs
Limited Information: While NDAs help protect victims, they also limit the public's access to information about the extent of Epstein's network and the identities of other potential perpetrators.
Legal Boundaries: Victims who sign NDAs may face legal consequences if they disclose information covered by these agreements.
(Can you see how this is an utter and complete clown show? If you do not know how NDAs work…then learn.
And news alert, you’ll never get access to them unless victims challenge them in a court.
You have victims and their perpetrators and now you have attorneys. Which ones are playing tricks on you?)
Good points. Also, not all the women were victims. Some were adult women who knew the job & were willing for the money. Like always there are grifters when it comes to a payday. The real victims deserve compensation , protection & sympathy.
Congress should make those NDAs unenforceable so that the victims could speak out about their abuse. No pedo protection, but they’re all “friends” right?
And why is it so necessary to “protect the victims” by redacting their names in the documents? (In certain situations I can understand it or if they don’t want to be named.) Many have come forward and done interviews and they had that whole section at the hearing. So we know who many of them are. But doesn’t redaction really prevent the victims from speaking out about the pervert(s) named in the documents and prevent them from naming names (because they’ll probably get sued)? If the document says (Clinton) got a “massage” from (your name), shouldn’t you be able to say that? Seems to me it protects the perps more than the victims.
You're talking about survivors. The "victims" are those who have delved into the files, and also those who have to endure conservatives rationalizing, deflecting, and victim-blaming to rival anything Bondi did Wednesday. Except these conservatives, for credibility's sake, have to pretend to be normal, centrist-to-liberal, rational people.
Have you ever worked in the legal field? I have for 35 years and during those years I drafted hundreds of NDAs. NDAs protect the guilty and the ones that sign off on them are explained by their counsel and you have that option to accept or not accept. These women knew what they were signing and if they didn’t then maybe they should sue their attorneys. If they want their monsters in jail then they should take it to court so that they can tell their story. Funny how money always changes a person.
"If they want their monsters in jail then they should take it to court."
Virginia Guiffre did. Now she's dead.
Exactly. I agree with you. But what I stated is the truth and so is yours. They are terrified. They still have a choice to make. They made it and now it’s their decision on what they want to do going forward. She didn’t sign an NDA and that’s why they killed her. She was fixing to spill the beans.
* In 2009, Virginia Giuffre received a $500,000 settlement from Jeffrey Epstein.
* This settlement was part of a lawsuit where Giuffre alleged that Epstein had sexually abused her as a minor.
* The agreement included a clause that released Epstein and any potential defendants from future liability.
Implications of the Settlement
* The terms of the 2009 settlement have been argued to potentially affect Giuffre's later lawsuit against Prince Andrew.
* Andrew's legal team claimed that the language in the settlement could bar Giuffre from suing him, even though he was not a party to the original agreement.
Additional Context
* Giuffre has also received other settlements, including an estimated $12 millionfrom Prince Andrew in 2022 to settle her sexual abuse claim against him.
* The 2009 settlement with Epstein was kept confidential until it was unsealed in early 2022, revealing its details and implications for Giuffre's legal battles.
Virginia Giuffre received a $500,000 settlement from Jeffrey Epstein in 2009, but she did not sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) as part of her settlement with Prince Andrew. This means she is free to speak about her experiences if she chooses to do so. (Too late, she’s dead)

Virginia Giuffre received a settlement of $500,000 from Jeffrey Epstein in 2009, which was part of a legal agreement related to her allegations against him. However, she did not sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) as part of her settlement with Prince Andrew in 2022. This absence of an NDA allows her the possibility to speak publicly about her experiences and the alleged abuse she suffered.

Yep, and now Virginia is dead. She was Arkancided (the Clintons handle the wet work).
But most people missed Virginia's murder because we were suddenly all distracted by the Don and Elon breakup.
Now guess who is DEAD…Virginia Giuffre.
BTW, I have worked in the legal field.
You need an explanation for the Crown not enforcing such, after consummating a very generous settlement, before you make a career out of that argument. Not that you should go back to soliciting. Bondi, in British terms, is the world’s premier BARRISTER.
Hey just saying, you sign your name on an NDA, you have to comply or else they will ruin you. I say let them challenge the court and let them tell their story. No one made them sign anything. They made that decision with their counsel.
Have you any links to document your facts?

She triggers so easily and quickly. Reminds me of the first time one of my students was emotionally triggered in an American government class. Nothing she said made sense or had anything to do with the issue the class had been discussing: I believe we had been talking about the division of powers in the Constitution when she went off on us. Bondi also exudes a sense of unearned authority even when she speaks a fact such as the level of Maduro's corruption as though she just heard it for the first time and can't wait to inform the rest of us, in the way eighth grade girls do. Her performance yesterday was embarrassing.
You NAILED it! Absolute eighth grade energy.
It seems some of Bondi’s mean girl demeanor comes from insecurity. Same with Noem. As if because they are women they need to put forth a “ meaner” facade to prove themselves as strong. This is not meant as a put down, just an opinion & observation. Compare to Homan who took over Minneapolis from Noem - he excludes strength & competence that seems to come naturally.
Kristie always looks like she wants to bite you.
Is there a link with Bondi and ‘The Church of Scientology’? Somewhere it seems I heard that or read it.🤔🕵🏼♀️
I have not heard that one! Putting it on the list to investigate.😉
Just found this on Brave AI:
“Pam Bondi is not confirmed to be a member of the Church of Scientology, though she has had longstanding professional and political ties to the organization.
She attended multiple fundraisers hosted by prominent Scientologists, including a 2014 event in Clearwater, Florida, organized by six high-profile members of the church.
In 2010, she toured Scientology facilities in Clearwater and spoke to members about human trafficking and anti-drug efforts.
Her campaign team described these interactions as involving “like-minded folks sharing the same goals,” particularly around child protection and anti-drug initiatives.
Despite these connections, sources confirm she belongs to an evangelical Protestant church in the Tampa area.
While some online forums suggest she may have been a former member, no credible evidence confirms formal membership.
She has defended her associations, stating her work with the church was focused on shared public safety objectives, not religious affiliation.
Her relationship with Scientology remains a point of scrutiny, particularly given her role as U.S. Attorney General nominee and her recent appointment of a former Greenberg Traurig lawyer—linked to Scientology—into a federal judicial role.”
I don’t know why but that lingers in my mind about her connection to TCoS. I have super radar about The Church of Scientology. I have a twin brother who got swept up with TCoS, and they took a lot of his $$$ for a few years with their ‘auditing process’ on “The Bridge to Total Freedom”. They totally messed with his thinking. He finally left when he realized that all they wanted was his money for “classes” and all their video tape series and literature. And we were older in our 50’s when he got involved with them.
My thoughts always go to, “if it’s over the top, it’s a psyop”.
If Pammy is part of central casting, she’s really lacking in her acting skills.
She's the most hapless of all Trump's cabinet. I wish she'd step down to spend more time with her family.
🤣🤣🤣
Does she even have a family? Twice divorced. No kids. Maybe if her parents are still alive?
Agreed, MAC! Amateur Hour on steroids.
Holy crap that was sooooo cringey! I want to show my wife but can't stand having to experience that level of cringe again lol.
ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED YET?! This is all a show!!
It doesn't matter how many files are released if there is no accountability and no investigation. This is the point that we all need to take in. The Epstein Operation is the tip of the iceberg on how this world is controlled and ruled by a criminal mafia class. Top down blackmail operations that are being coordinated by the intelligence agencies led by the five eyes. That is how this works and that is why no one is going to prison.
In the meantime, thanks for helping us to laugh so we don't cry haha. Have a great weekend everyone!
I wish you were wrong, but my spidey sense is that you are correct. Kabuki theatre at its finest. Highly stylized, dramatic (check ✅ mentally unstable Dems) and the dunce played by the blonde! 😂
Why was the Epstein affair a non issue during the last administration but is such a big deal now? Perhaps I’m being naive but there is more to this than meets the sound bite .
Because Trump actually wants to stop the pedophiles. But that involves level-headed pursuit of the criminals, and Bondi is a huge liability right now.
Scott Bessent needs to give her a tutorial!
Bondi is not real quick on the draw. It takes her brain too long to form a hard-hitting comeback. She simply is not capable of doing so because she is not naturally witty, by any stretch. I don't see a lot of self-confidence in her, just forced bravado. She just doesn't know her stuff no matter how much she practices in front of the mirror. We keep expecting her to be a Ted Cruz, Bill Shipley, John Kennedy or Bessent and it's just not going to happen. We're spoiled by people like Marco Rubio who can spit out facts rapid-fire like a machine gun without stopping to catch his breath. It's clear she is under an enormous amount of pressure and it shows. She is not the first or only one in this admin without a natural proclivity to shine either.
True, all of it... but it's her JOB. How hard would it be, for example, to say, "We had three million files to review and we made some mistakes. We're correcting them as soon as we're aware of them." No, it's THE DOW! YOU'RE A LOSER! Seriously, did you watch??? I can't even.
Oh geez no. See? So not quick thinking at all. I don't think she has any common sense either now that I think about it. That's why I love you so much...you do the watching so I don't have to. You are so much more patient than I am. I did try but it lasted about 2 minutes. She just gets on my last nerve and before you know it my neighbor is knocking on the door going, "We all heard you yelling at the tv again. Who is it this time?"😏
I think she needs to be replaced. There was a time, long ago, that I thought she would make a great AG and Kash Patel would be great in the role he now holds but now I look at them with the Texas term, “all hat and no saddle.” These two are not up to the task.
Same. Patel is just as bad (and I was Team Kash initially). So disappointing.
I disagree. The accomplishments of the FBI the past 12 months are unheard of in history. They don’t get highlighted as they should, but it’s remarkable that any of it was possible if he weren’t effective.
Patel said last September there was "no credible information" that Epstein was trafficking girls to anyone but himself and that he would "bring the case yesterday" if there were. HE HAD THE FILES AT THE TIME. He lost my trust, sorry. And I was a fan!
Right now on the fence about Kash. I completely disagree with his opinion the Epstein offed himself. For all we know he’s still alive & protected somewhere. Maybe fbi gave him to Moussad & said you deal with him. 🤷🏻♀️
Same. Patel impressed me before his appointment to FBI. Now, he seems to be hiding or just doesn’t give a rip. Disappointed is an understatement
Compromised. Bet on it.
Wasn’t he worried about his music star girlfriend’s safety? That could be a clue.
I want justice as much as anyone; public hangings would be great! I don't claim to know exactly what's going on, but I'm getting the feeling that Trump is playing the long game here. Every time he tries to downplay the Epstein situation, the Dems scream louder and demand he release the list, right? They hardly have a choice, as their entire platform from the start has been to oppose Trump.
Don't get me wrong, while I generally support Trump, I have some issues with some his actions, especially OWS (and proper use of initial capital letters!).
Pam bondi worked in the attorney general's office in Florida at the time that Epstein got that great deal and she is still listed in some form as a big pharma attorney, through the law firm she's still listed with. She's had her hand involved with Epstein since the beginning, which I believe is 2006. She's an embarrassment to this administration and I don't know if it's possible that anybody could replace her only because Democrats will not approve. Trump's appointees.
Bondi is either part of the set-up or being set-up to bring the Left and Right together in this circus of government … there are no accidents here.
She’s compromised - and incompetent.
Like Speaker Johnson and so many other RINOs.
This is the issue where Trump loses his base. We hate the fact that they are fucking running cover for the pedophiles that obviously infect our elites. Bondi could be a hero expose all of them and prosecute the ones that can be proven. Yet she runs cover for them. Her attack on Massie was the straw that broke the back.
I saw a few clips on X yesterday but did not watch. After the initial jubilation of the win in Nov 2024 the last year or so has been a slow steady drip of diminished expectations. From a real-ville perspective, the swamp is wide and deep and has its tentacles all over DC. Finding people who are willing to do the job, smart, effective, and not corrupt but have at least some knowledge of how DC works (which was Trump 1.0's problem - there were a lot of dead weight or corrupt people in his orbit) narrows the field by a lot. While Trump 2.0 IS a much better line up there are still some weak links. I suspect the DOJ still has some holdouts from the corrupt era that are slowing Bondi down, and I also have had the sense from the beginning that she is either in over her head or compromised.
There are too many 'tracks' - the world stage, economic policy/the economy, illegals, regulatory strangleholds, the HC debacle, and the waste/fraud/corruption cabal that needs to be dismantled and on and on. Seems to be whack a mole where they are trying to do everything with a clock that keeps ticking toward the midterms.
On balance, there are some great wins in there, but no one in prison yet is very disappointing.
I got a fresh new perspective after the recent DC grand jury ruling about the traitorous six. They cannot operate the way we are all expecting or demanding. They are up against all odds and to win they cannot play the typical moves.
This administration isn’t just David facing a Goliath, it’s David facing a tsunami of evil coming at them as tall as a mountain with the force of a nuclear bomb, and we are all sitting here judging how they spin their sling or which stones they chose to pick up and use as if any of that can make a difference to what they are up against. Only God has the power to equip them and enable them to win the fight. After that DC grand jury, I stopped judging them and started praying for them.
My biggest beef is with Congress failing to codify more of the executive orders. They do love their committee hearings where they can produce 'gotcha' videos for their fundraising and re-election campaigns but it's mostly sound and fury signifying nothing. And you are right, the DC jury pool and justice are 2 diametrically opposed forces. I do wonder how many of Bondi's underlings actually have her back vs working against her.
THAT’S who we all need to be raking over the coals. Not members of this administration. They keep setting it up, even brought a T-stand out to place the ball on, and still Congress swings and misses. Heck most aren’t even swinging. They are just shrugging they forgot to bring their bat and kicking the dirt.
And the remaining rats in the walls of the DOJ and FBI are many. You can’t just focus on doing your job and completing the obvious tasks. You have to first set things up to protect it all from sabotage, and outsmart the rats. I don’t think I’d last a week in a job like that.
Your observations are always excellent; I appreciate you!
Congress nearly all compromised.
I’m praying it all comes out like Minnesota!
EXACTLY.
Flesh & blood cannot combat sheer evil.
Yes, part of the Marxist plan is always overwhelm with lies & corruption. They’ve had decades to spin & embed their evil plans in the judiciary & NGOs funding them. We who have endured want results, specifically accountability that includes punishment. But there is a process that takes time & patience. I’m not a Pollyanna nor an optimist ( realist I think) so this view takes some faith.
