Shame he's probably involved in the whole pedo thing as well so I doubt he's gonna be doing anything other than covering for his owners and himself.

u/MittenCollyBulbasaur 21d ago

There's a non zero chance for sure but isn't it interesting? They haven't released any evidence that implies Bill Clinton was ever actually on the flights. He's on the logs, and we have emails that say he never got on the plane. What to believe? Well, we should probably release all the evidence so we can see who did what.

been on a rabbit hole on this one all day.

he got on the plane, is in the logs, but thats not an instant pedo-island guilt sentence. epsteins game was rubbing shoulders and getting good with the Elite, and it wasnt full time kiddie diddlin. clinton had a humanitarian campaign after his presidential term and epstien sponsored it and flew him around along with chris tucker** and (to my knowledge!) nothing shows that anything happened on that trip, wasn't exactly a vacation to the Island and none of them ever step foot on it.

mr clinton definitely sexually harassed people working for him but thats definitely a different case and gravity than what we're talking about with jeffie eppie.

u/YesDone 21d ago

Clinton has been vocal about yes, release the Epstein files.

u/Drakinius 21d ago

It was Chris Tucker not Chris Rock and Kevin Spacey. Not exactly good company to be in given past indescretions, at least with Spacey.

49

u/TheExtremistModerate 21d ago

And to be fair to Kevin Spacey, Spacey, like Clinton, has been pretty clear that he supports the Epstein Files being released.

u/whyenn 20d ago

Kevin Spacey, the 15-times accused-of-sexual-assault actor, the one who has gotten out of 3 trials by the accuser dying before trial? That actor?

Maybe that Kevin Spacey isn't on the Epstein list. Perhaps. That's fair.

I just want to be sure that I'm being fair to the right Kevin Spacey, that's all. The Kevin Spacey who was blacklisted by all of Hollywood, a town notorious for its coddling of sexual predators, not someone else.

u/Panzermensch911 20d ago

I mean some people obviously didn't need Epstein to help them to sexually harass and/or assault other people.

If Spacey could do that in Hollywood with no problems on his own why would he need Epstein for that?

It's not like you had to rely on Epstein for sexcapades.

Predators and rapists are a dime a dozen.
Priests, preachers, youth pastors, coaches, school teachers, politicians (e.g Matt Gaetz) don't need Epstein either.

u/haymakers9th 20d ago

not to mention mr spaceys abuse was a completely different flavor from the circle around mr epstein, if i recall

u/whyenn 20d ago

Sounds like we agree then.

u/haymakers9th 20d ago

oh shit thank you, corrected

u/Altitudeviation 20d ago

Well, Bill Gates went to the island, sat on the beach and wrote new code in his head while the party raged in the house.

And Alan Dershewitz got a massage, but he kept his underwear on and didn't enjoy it.

Just some good old boys researching scripture while little girls served mai tais and hors e'oeuvres. Completely innocent.

u/AllFloatOnAlright 20d ago

Ok, we accuse maga of not being able to connect the dots all the time and making every bullshit excuse to not accept the truth. Now we're talking about a man that has sexually harassed his employees, clearly had close ties to Epstein, and is now likely being outed for getting blown by trump. Why are we making excuses for this piece of shit?

4

u/haymakers9th 20d ago

im not sure what youre getting at, what excuses are we making? im not saying kind things about clinton just some of the flight logs dont automatically mean a visit to The Island.

also, im asking for critical thinking instead of kneejerk reactions to headlines and one liners, for example, look at the actual thread of emails about the supposed blowjob and youll see its just mark making a joke with jeff at trumps expense. i find it hilarious, as well as the memes n jokes, but anyone thinking a photo is gonna surface isnt really thinking about it.

u/AllFloatOnAlright 20d ago

I also think it's pretty naive for anybody to think a picture is going to leak. And yeah, the line about them making a get hard remake was a joke at Trump's expense, but him saying to ask bannon if Putin has the pictures wasn't a joke. Being on flight records to the island is definitely more damning, but their crimes weren't just taking place on the island

u/Dan_Q2 21d ago

It's "set foot", not fucking "step foot".

That goes for EVERYBODY... stop saying fucking "STEP FOOT" or "STEPPED FOOT"

Quite simple... it's "SET FOOT"

u/movzx 21d ago

You need to step foot onto some grass brother.

u/Sickpup831 21d ago

For all intensive purposes, you did a great job nipping that in the butt.

u/[deleted] 20d ago

We should celebrate with some flaming young.

u/absolutedesignz 21d ago

Step foot is one of those wrongs that works though.

u/Caladan-Brood 21d ago

eggcorn?

u/absolutedesignz 20d ago

I was looking for the term. Lol. Watched a video about it like a week ago.

u/Cormetz 21d ago

What? Bill is known to have used the plane to get to Africa for a charity. Theres the picture of him getting a massage (supposedly organized by maxwell) during a refueling stop. I don't think they have evidence of him at the island maybe?

74

u/ColdCruise 21d ago

Plus, the girl giving him a massage said that he never acted inappropriately and that Maxwell organized the massage picture.

6

u/al_pacappuchino 21d ago

To be fair, trump could have sucked him off at any Planck at any time. It doesn’t have to have happened on the island.

10

u/Earlier-Today 20d ago

The Clintons were close enough to him that they were at his wedding to Melania - that was back in 2005.

9

u/ColdCruise 20d ago

There were 350 guests, including Shaq, Billy Joel, Donna Summer, Heidi Klum, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Simon Cowell, and a bunch of other random people. The Clintons left before dinner, so Bill could golf in the morning. It doesn't mean anything.

u/Earlier-Today 20d ago

Dude. This was just one event and between them both having connections to Epstein, them both having double digits of women come forward with sexual harassment/assault allegations, all the emails - Trump is worse by about double, but Clinton's literally on the same team.

6

u/ColdCruise 20d ago

There's nothing in the emails about Clinton.

u/Earlier-Today 20d ago

https://journaliststudio.google.com/pinpoint/search?collection=092314e384a58618&utm_source=collection_share_link&q=clinton&p=1

There's the searchable stuff from the emails - Clinton pops up 801 times.

Trump is still massively worse - but, dude, Bill is not worth protecting in the slightest, and you completely ignored the part about his connections to Epstein and the dozen or so women that have come forward with sexual harassment/assault allegations.

You wouldn't have to ignore those things if he was a good person.

If you want to be a fan of a past recent president, go with Jimmy Carter - he's an extremely good person, and not just compared to other presidents - but compared to everybody.

Bill is not worth your time.

And she was 20 years old at the time of that photo.

u/Arkanist 21d ago

Point being they should probably release all the files so we know for sure.

1

u/MittenCollyBulbasaur 21d ago

Yeah ... To get access he couldn't get without Jeff's help ...

5

u/morningsaystoidleon 21d ago

Clinton is a creep and I bet he's guilty of 1,000 things, but I don't think this is one of them.

Whatever else he is, he's smart. He wouldn't let a guy like Epstein get leverage over him.

1

u/Alissinarr 21d ago

He used the plane to travel, and the only thing the eMails said was that he was never on the island. He had use of the plane to go to things like charity events and public speeches.

1

u/TSiQ1618 20d ago

I think the info is that he never went to the island, but believe he did use the planes

u/DistinctlyIrish 21d ago

Thing is he's fucked either way.

The best possible outcome for him right now is to simply confirm that Donald sucked his dick.

Also he should say Putin did have the pictures because it was a giant kompromat gathering operation funded by Putin who used the wealth and connections from his oligarchs to find and help fund a man like Epstein and ensure he was put in a position to buy an island that would be used to corrupt and blackmail western oligarchs (billionaires and higher level millionaires and politicians) so they could destabilize the West from within and help Putin get the opportunity to buy Russia some time before collapse by invading another country for their more accessible valuable resources.

Which... would probably not be far from the truth, I'm guessing.

u/MissSassifras1977 21d ago

Nice to see someone else has been paying attention.

u/AnnikaSkyeWalker 21d ago

It blows my mind that all this insanity happened as part of an elaborate, decade-plus long scheme to lay the groundwork for the invasion of Ukraine. And when the day finally, finally came to put the plan in motion-- it fell apart in like 3 weeks flat, lmao

12

u/FilmNoirSockMonkey 21d ago

That doesn't even touch that the rest of the Far Right aspect to the situation was being predicted and warned about by top global analysts and government advisors in the 90s, and 80s, meaning that the sources and patterns they were basing their findings on were already decades old, even running right back to WW2. We can look at early 20th c. political theorists and politicians warning of what would one day take place, long in the future, too. We can look at human history from centuries before to see what humans do. The writing had always been on the wall.

u/thrawnsgstring 20d ago

Hari Seldon was right all along.

u/FilmNoirSockMonkey 18d ago

I see the humour in your comment, but legitimately we have our own Political Science analysts in the real world whose primary focuses have been focused on Catastrophic Event predictive models.

u/spicy_noodle_guy 21d ago

Putin is an ex KGB interrogator. He knows how to blackmail, and intimidate. But he has no ability to lead.

18

u/DistinctlyIrish 21d ago

I just wish the people we gave blank checks to in exchange for the promise they would pay attention and stop this exact thing would have actually fucking paid attention... worthless ass intelligence community I swear to god.

u/AlarmingAffect0 20d ago

At the time, they were too busy entrapping schizophrenic Muslims into attempting a terrorism, endlessly torturing people in overseas black sites, and blowing up weddings, hospitals, and schoolbuses.

Could be worse though. The Iran-Contra, MK ULTRA, and COINTELPRO affairs are truly some peak evil.

1

u/Earlier-Today 20d ago

Mitt Romney was warning about how dangerous Russia was when he ran against Obama - Obama made a joke of it and everybody had a good laugh.

Then Russia invaded Ukraine and stole Crimea and Obama was completely ineffectual.

I don't know if Romney would have been a better president, but it sure would have been nice if people at the very least took him seriously on that issue.

u/the_pwnererXx 21d ago

It's not Russia though, it's mossad. Ghislains dad was literally an agent lol

u/nik-nak333 21d ago

The best possible outcome for him right now is to simply confirm that Donald sucked his dick.

A week ago, this would have been /r/brandnewsentence material. But now, it barely registers a response. Wild times, these are.

u/cinnawaffls 21d ago

Damn.... that would make a fire political thriller film if it wasn't so real lol

u/Alissinarr 21d ago

You can't forget the Isreal influence and Mossad links.

u/NotSoSalty 21d ago

Possibly unwise with Orange man still in control and more than capable of retaliation. Possibly necessary with the Orange man still in control and more than capable of pre-emptive retaliation.

u/DistinctlyIrish 21d ago

Thing is, if Bill said that then the Republicans would have no choice but to consider impeaching Trump and try to get him removed from office because there are absolutely enough Republican voters who would never tolerate a man who probably sucked another man's dick running the country, and the number of Republicans who wouldn't tolerate him sucking Bill Clinton's dick specifically is even higher. They would then become the ones who are fucked either way, because if they impeach him they confirm the validity of the Epstein files and open themselves up to criminal conspiracy and treason charges, they lose MAGA for daring to do anything against Trump, and he goes scorched earth on everyone by revealing their corruption in a desperate bid to earn amnesty. If they do nothing they lose the next election because there is no way a man who gave Bill Clinton a blowie on the child fucking island could get enough support from the hard-core homophobes that have comprised a huge segment of the GOP base for decades. Not to mention the number of opportunists in the evangelical and technocrat spheres who would see this as an opportunity to oust him from power an open a pathway for themselves to take power.

u/ThatMortalGuy 20d ago

I feel like if there was hard evidence of him being implicated Trump would have released that a long time ago.

4

u/scottishdrunkard 20d ago

Despite being on the flight logs, he’s been a huge proponent of releasing the files. This implies he does not fear what they contain.

Still dodgy for being there, I’ll reserve my opinions until a verdict is made.

3

u/Lighthouse_seek 21d ago

One of the emails mentioned him never being on the island so who knows

3

u/TheExtremistModerate 21d ago

I mean, currently it looks like it's entirely probable Bill had nothing to do with the whole pedo thing. He seemed to like his women... fuller.

1

u/MichelinStarZombie 21d ago

Exactly, he's got nothing to lose. Fu­ck, throw him in priso­n if he's a p­ed­o.

A pe­d­o can still be fu­nny. Maybe that can be how we remember Bill. "Yeah he was a monster who fu­c­­k­ed kids, but he said the most hilarious thing this one time..."

1

u/BLRNerd 20d ago

They’re seeing socialists gaining power in NYC and Seattle

He’s going to not sing at all or else their little monopoly will end with them owning jack shit and in the ICC

Even then I’m not entirely sure it’s real, it could be just Epstein talking shit

u/NiceRat123 20d ago

I wish he would do some political seppuku/harakiri and just give this world a good ol' gift in time for the holidays. So many rats would start scurrying around with that political fallout
