NOT ONE PERSON has paid any consequences[*], just why in the fuck would anyone "move on" from the most notorious pedo ring in history?
[*] Oh, okay, one woman is in prison. No one else, even though we have all these names of men.
One woman is in a minimum security prison with work release.
She got moved there from a more secure prison after a confidential meeting with the guy who is the presidents former personal lawyer IIRC

Yet Donald raped children?
Hey, that prince got mean looks from his family. That has to count for something right?
He had to relinquish his title! The horror! Have you no sympathy?
Hang on, after this latest tranche of photos, he's going to have to move into a 5 bedroom house! That's barely enough for him, his 2 daughters, and his ex-wife who took those daughters to Epstein's house when they were children and he had recently been released from prison for fucking children, should they want to stay. That's only like one bedroom for the help...
I didn't know! What horror! It's a shame that cruel and unusual punishment must be legal there!
Because one of the biggest Epstein-collaboraters says so of course.
Well, across the pond, a Lord has been unlorded, and a prince has been disemprinced. Or whatever you call it.
Edit: still across the pond, Starmer's scheming right-wing chief of staff has now also fucked off.
Its annoying that in the press briefings that journalists never ask the obvious questions of:
"so if there is not enough evidence to charge others then why aren't investigations being started into those who have been named? "
"Is the DOJ no longer willing to investigate credible reports of pedophilia?"
I honestly wish they would frame things by asking why they are so quick to go after the likes of Don Lemon or Adam Schiff or quickly name a victim of ICE thuggery who is now dead as being an "insurrectionist", and YET, they seem so hesitant to go after credible reports of pedophiles.
Why this huge disparity in leaping to judgement and action in these other cases, but this endless stonewalling on pedophiles?
I had to laugh when I saw James Bowman The Couch Banger saying that Donvict was correct in telling a female reporter to smile more because journalism is so adversarial. LOL, they are throwing softballs nearly all of the time. Even Kaitlan's question was rather mild, to be honest.
"What are the DOJ's criteria for deciding which pedophiles to protect?"
But lots and LOTS of people are resigning their jobs around the world. The last one will be the, uh, cherry on top.
Is there a list? I know I saw at least one headline of one of these perps resigning.
When do they go to prison?
LOL well CharlesDarwin, you know, they're too evolved for prison ... they just go hide somewhere until everyone forgets...
