    Duh. So is Musk. Those were some expensive karate lessons Ghislaine hooked him up with. No matter. Continue to eat one another. Then enter a permanent K Hole.

    As much as I believe that Trump is in the Epstein files, I don’t believe Musk has any info about this. Remember this is the same guy that called the person trying to rescue those kids in a cave a pedophile with zero evidence. Musk can not be trusted, even is it’s something you want to believe.

        Epstein wanted to get to Musk so he set Musk’s brother up with someone and Kindall introduced Musk to Epstein. Kendall ended up Epstein’s friend. We don’t know what happened between Epstein and musk But I can almost guarantee you that it didn’t involve Legal consensual adult interactions.

        I don’t think so? Yeah, every accusation is a confession and all that, but I don’t remember seeing anything to substantiate it.

    “Epstein knew lots of people. What about Biden?”

    I can just imagine the Fox News comments now.

      The difference is Biden doesn’t have a cult. Go ahead and lock him up. Granted with his cancer and age there isn’t much point in doing it.

    THIS ISN’T NEWS.

    We knew this 6 months ago. John fucking Oliver did a piece of this. Woo.

    Now, the DEPTH of involvement is so far just speculation and opinions from trending.

      Yeah, but this is about who’s saying it. Dude’s rallying up his minions, which means Elon is declaring war, and I personally can’t stop laughing at all this.

        The funny thing about Elon going to war, is that Elon will lose. Fantastically so. The ketamine must still be flowing hard. 5 years ago Trump’s base hated his cars. It’s only when Elon hitched his cart to maga that they started to like him. An unsold cyber trucks are in mall parking lots and his stocks globally are tanking.

        So, now Tesla’s stock is in the shitter. Liberals hate him and don’t want his cars. And now the GOP will flip on him and also not buy his cars. He’s also now going to wreck his government contracts with SpaceX. Mars will never happen for him. And now Twitter will take an even bigger hit. Those ai protections can be drafted to exclude him and his companies too.

        He will absolutely damage trump and split a few people off, but he was in a losing position to begin with. Even with damning evidence and the persuasive media skills and charisma of a much more talented individual, he is so fucking cooked. Without that… Well, now there is only one psychopathic narcissist in the leadership role. So that’s nice.

                That’s kinda petty though, I mean to hope an asshole stays a full asshole their whole life, rather than at least doing one good thing for the world, just because that might make them feel good… I mean that’s pretty shitty.

                I feel like even the worst people should aim to improve. And rooting against that improvement just feels wrong to me.

                  You mean I should wish only good things for the dude who just took a chainsaw to the US government, helped defund important science including cancer research, removed one of the biggest platforms for liberals, promotes lies & misinformation, prevented real change for public transportation, is actively queerphobic, and did two Nazi salutes on stage?

                  You’re missing the part where I’m more than happy for anyone else to take that role.

            I mean… Mars is cool in principal. its still easier to fix our world than to ever terraform another. It’s a very silly idea. But kinda like the moon. Little steps.

            Still. I want Mars to happen. just not this way. So I guess I’m ok with it?

              Yeah! I’m happy if someone else decides they need it to happen, but I want it cancelled for Elon specifically. I want him to cry sad, salty tears about it for days on end.

      I’ve known for about half a decade that he was deeply involved thanks to the brother of Jeffery Epstein who testified in court that Trump had been to the island on many occasions.

      Trump was talking well over a decade ago about his good friend Epstein and how young he liked his girls.

        They still are on r/conservative. I checked today. Some are saying they thought it was shady that Trump said he’d release them then all of a sudden he went silent on the matter.

        They are all over the place now.

        “Well I mean, look where she was? On Epstein private island? Basically asking for it”

        They’ll make excuses, like they always do.

        If you took a time machine back 15 years and explained to them that they’d be making excuses for felons, rapists and people running plays from the Nazi playbook, they’d refuse to believe you. But here we are. Running interference for kiddy diddlers is the next logical step in their devolution.

        Conservatives cannot be trusted with power.

        Still wont get released like ever. And even if, they wont believe it.

        its either planted for them, or fake news, or he was thinking she was 18 or whatever. Nothing can change their mind because they lost their ability to think
