Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

Google translate says this Russian who has toured the world is named Zurab Mikeladze. https://en.chelopera.ru/people/about/zurab-mikeladze/

Here you go Qsheep. Here's your cabal. Now, like, make good on all your conspiracy rage and demand justice.

[–] phx@lemmy.world 2 points 23 minutes ago (1 children)

I'm pretty sure these are just the ones they were willing to put up for sacrifice...

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 1 points 7 minutes ago

Yeah over 50% of the files no matter how you size them up are still unreleased. I bet there is a lot there.

[–] ClassStruggle@lemmy.ml 66 points 3 hours ago (3 children)

They could read every single one of their names and not a god damned thing will happen

[–] DrFistington@lemmy.world 12 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

That's old school thinking. The question is, if someone kills them, will anyone stick out their neck to try and punish someone who kills a child rapist?

The paradigm has shifted. We are all guilty until proven innocent, which is why the left needs to go hard and go all the way.

Make the rich beg for the old paradigm of innocent until proven guilty. Exterminate them all, then grant their last wish

[–] defaultusername@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 22 minutes ago

The elite are going after Luigi Mangione pretty hard, and there isn't even good evidence that he killed anyone.

“The wheels of justice turn slow.”

Well the wheels of fascism turn fast and this isn’t exactly a tortoise and hare situation.

[–] ZiggyTheZygote@lemmy.ca 17 points 3 hours ago

They can do their crimes in front of everyone to see and film and nothing will happen to them. What a fucking joke of a world.

[–] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 16 points 2 hours ago

They will be punished the same way Elon Musk, Donal Trump and Bill Gates were punished.

[–] shittydwarf@sh.itjust.works 37 points 3 hours ago

Don't forget Trump x 1 million

[–] 7112@lemmy.world 28 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

It feels like they're selecting names and hiding others. If they are just going to say the names why redact them for the public in the files?

[–] evasive_chimpanzee@lemmy.world 36 points 2 hours ago (2 children)

If you listen to what he says, the FBI redacted all the files before passing them to the DOJ. The DOJ was only able to release the versions of what they actually had.

Ro went to the FBI to see the originals, but it's not like he could comprehensively hunt through the 3 million files. It sounds like he just pulled out names of people that he found that were mentioned in particularly damaging documents that were redacted only to keep their own names clean.

It'll take a much larger effort to comprehensively go through with proper redactions of victim info, without hiding perps.

[–] stressballs@lemmy.zip 2 points 29 minutes ago

Thanks for the common sense perspective. I didn't see it. I hope we get more and more until everything crumbles.

Oh hey now don’t go being reasonable. Didn’t you get the memo? We’re all just supposed to throw up our hands and say nothing is going to happen and then just sit here being angry but not active. /s

Make good headline but keep donors onboard

[–] IAmYouButYouDontKnowYet@reddthat.com 5 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago) (1 children)

Fuck the people raping and grooming and pimping people... But I just want to add the reminder to this topic that there are things bigger than trafficking going on within this all. Sadly in the grand scheme, globally too, the trafficking is probably only a small part of the evil.

The trafficking could possibly the "best case scenario" in terms of these people and their acts of manipulation towards the human species.

[–] flamingleg@lemmy.ml 1 points 9 minutes ago

a globe-spanning mossad influence operation which manipulates our politicians, business-people and academics from the shadows with child rape and blood sacrifice is already pretty grand ...

what larger context do you mean? spiritual warfare?

Well I was dead wrong. When I was psychotic after my TBI in 2022 I put my own version of the Epstein List on Github. It's still there, a private repository that's basically a schizophrenic nightmare, lmao. It's an interesting rabbit hole to go down if you're interested in what happens to you when you smoke a bunch of weed right after getting a traumatic brain injury.

But anyways, yeah, I was off about Epstein, and I do not seem to have gotten any of the names right. I had Guy Fieri, Kanye West, Pete Davidson, Jared Kushner, Ivanka Trump, Donald Trump, Travis Barker? lmao

[–] stressballs@lemmy.zip 1 points 28 minutes ago

Kanye is on some list somewhere for sure haha

[–] andyburke@fedia.io 14 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

Hope you're feeling better - something was pretty wrong if you were grouping Guy Fieri in.

[–] Soulphite@reddthat.com 6 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I dunno man, someone that clean has gotta be dirty.

Right?!? He's just a plain old regular guy when he's not a Bosch. Haven't you seen that commercial?

[–] Salamanderwizard@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Okay, so I don't think Guy is a pedo, but I have heard he is very touchy-feely with the women on his shows.

[–] snausagesinablanket@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

I saw an episode where he was all over this restaurant owner. She was gorgeous but still she had earned the respect she deserved and he looked at her like she was filet mignon and acted a fool.

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 10 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

To be fair, Yeezy went off the deep end so I’ll give your baked and brain-damaged self half a point for that one

[–] Earthman_Jim@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Likely on a few shady lists.

[–] IAmYouButYouDontKnowYet@reddthat.com 5 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

He was on my take bathsalts and eat someone list.

We are so lucky tiktok wasn't around for that era.

[–] agingelderly@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

You really think it's just these 6 people?

That's why they are doing it this way
