Summary

Donald Trump’s name appears in Jeffrey Epstein’s recently released flight logs seven times, including flights in 1993 and 1994, some with his then-wife Marla Maples and daughter Tiffany.

The documents were released by Attorney General Pam Bondi, who stated this was the first phase of disclosures regarding Epstein’s network.

Bondi requested additional FBI records on Epstein, citing thousands of undisclosed pages.

Epstein, who died in 2019, had connections to Trump, Bill Clinton, and Prince Andrew, though no wrongdoing by Trump has been alleged.

    This is so naive I can’t believe there’s people who think like you. I think Epstein was probably a low level player compared to what goes on in Russia and the Middle East.

      Yeah, I’m certainly only speaking for the West. But here risk has gone up and public sentiment has changed. In the 1980s people would be more likely to cover for a priest. Today they’re more likely to murder that priest. The church is more likely to turn them over to authorities rather than move them to another parish.

        you might want to lay off the church’s coolaid. They’re still protecting priests and pastors. The only time they don’t is when public backlash is so high it’s no longer feasible to do so. For every pedopriest you hear about there are another dozen doing the same thing quietly.

        sex trafficking has always been part of human behavior, probably even before we were technically modern humans. And it probably always will be. This isn’t pessimism. this is reality. If you want some optmimism, know there’s also always been people standing against it, doing what they can to end it. but it’s not a fight that ends until humanity ends.
