Another complaint — for which there was no contact information provided — alleged that “calendar girls” parties at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago involved genital measurements for children.

“Jeffrey Epstein would bring the children in and trump would auction them off. He measured the children’s vulva and vaginas by entering a finger and rated the children on tightness,” the complaint reads.

      A good rule is: the stuff we know is almost always just scratching the surface of how bad it actually is. This applies to specific people, countries and much of history.

      You have to realize, someone who views life as a transaction, is a malignant narcissist, and has wealth is capable of the WORST of depravities a human can commit. I had a father like him and my sisters had to lock their doors to their rooms despite him demanding and even breaking through a door once. He liked to go to the bathroom when they showered. That’s just what /I/ know of.

        The problem is that I’m not capable of imagining the depravities that keep happening before I hear about them.

      Look, I think he’s a piece of shit. But, I also think we shouldn’t judge anybody based on anonymous accusations phoned into a tip line. I mean, can you imagine the kinds of nonsense MAGA folks are constantly phoning into tip lines about every prominent democrat?

        I don’t think Epstein related accused deserve the benefit of the doubt anymore. Too much has been corroborated, and they’ve worked too hard to bury it/cover it all up.

          Look, the kind of people who show up in Epstein’s files are the kind that deserve zero sympathy. They’re the kinds of ultra-rich people who should be lined up for the guillotine just because of their obscene wealth hoards, even if they had nothing to do with child sex abuse.

          But, just look at the phenomenon of SWATting. People phone in a malicious tip to the police in the hope that they kick down someone’s door. In addition to malicious people, a tip line is going to get people having schizophrenic episodes, people suffering carbon monoxide poisoning, etc.

          To me, these allegations seem about as likely as there being a secret basement at Comet Ping Pong pizzeria where the elites were draining children of their adrenachrome. And, I’d really like it if my side didn’t go all Q-Anon and start believing every possible rumour just because it makes someone they hate look bad.
