      A frightening number of sex offenders get work release. About half the work release guys I work with are sex offenders. The other half are drug convictions.

      The drug conviction guys are generally happy to tell you what they got sent to prison for, sometimes with some mild embarrassment or remorse. A worrying number of the sex offenders will tell you inadvertantly when they’re bitching about the people they victimized making obtaining parole difficult. No remorse at all.

      A pardon would be too obvious, and would take her off the leash. Much safer to transfer her to a cushy Club Fed prison and give her work release. That way, if she steps out of line she has a lot to lose.

        Easier to Epstein her outside of prison. You have to cut camera feeds and make sure guards aren’t nearby.

          Or she “disappears” - bonus points if an unidentified liberal is subject of an elaborate manhunt before the lead goes cold. Meanwhile, Trump has her quietly shipped to Russia where she can pick up where she left off and live out her life with full govt protection

            Is America still not puting 2 and 2 together that Trump was likely involved in killing Epstein to silence him? Doubt he’d put extra effort into keeping Maxwell alive vs. her also “suiciding” or being disappeared.

              30% of people know. 31% think Trump is Jesus. 39% don’t pay attention (or at least don’t vote).

    I really don’t think that Trump giving a human trafficker special treatment to say that he isn’t a pedophile is gonna play out as well with his base as he thinks it will.

      I think you are vastly overestimating his base. They are looking for convenient excuses not logic or evidence. As long as there is a convenient excuse to trot out, Trump is still God Incarnate and the delusions continue. Someone looking for the truth won’t be swayed by the obviously bribed testimony of someone who has repeatedly lied under oath, but these people aren’t looking for the truth- they already have it in whatever Trump is saying that day. They just need something to point to and say “See? She says he wasn’t involved so he wasn’t involved! You liberals are just making things up to hurt Trump again!” This is a world where evidence isn’t what matters, it’s quips. As long as there’s a quip to shut down any disagreement the fantasy that Trump is a saintly hero of democracy can continue.

        I’m sure some of them will believe whatever the narrative is, but some of them have been on this train since the early QAnon days. They’ve been promised arrests, public executions, and a, “great awakening,” where their conspiracy theories about the deep-state pedophile cabal is exposed and their children call them and apologize for uninviting them to Thanksgiving. Trump created a very big fracture with those people a few weeks ago when he told them to shut up and stop talking about Epstien, and his damage control has been very poor. Maybe he can get ahold of the narrative again, but he’ll need to do more than have a human trafficker say he did nothing wrong.

      They won’t care. They have no morals or hard lines. They’ll support whatever dear leader tells them to. There will be a few days of fake outrage, and then they will stop caring.

        We’ll see. He spent the last 6 years stirring up this Santanic-panic pedophile shit, I don’t think it’s going to be that easy to put down. Besides that, he’s about to throw us into a massive recession with huge inflation. I’ve never been one of those, “Trump is finished! There’s no way he’s coming back from this!” guys, but this really seems like a perfect storm of events that will hurt his most loyal followers.

        Depends what you mean by, “catch on.” Are they going to understand that their quality of life is declining because late stage capitalism is extracting what little wealth they have left, and that neither the neoliberal center-left offering milquetoast concessions from ruling class or the far-right fascists scapegoating immigrants and minorities can fix the fundamental, underlying rot within our society? No, probably not. But I think some of the MAGA chuds might figure out Trump is a pedophile.

      His base voted for him AFTER he was convicted of 34 felonies and became an adjudicated rapist.

      They’re subhuman.

      They’ll work up an excuse for this.

    So, as punishment for her crimes of taking part in the act of and enabling the monetary gains to rich elites from the rape, sex trafficking, and kidnapping of literal children they gave her a promotion. Let’s see how round three turns out, folks, better hide your daughters! Really, though, hide your daughters.

    Fuck this country. Somebody shoot that piece of shit in the face. I don’t have a gun or the means to get to her, but someone has to be within at least brickin’ distance. If that’s you, all I’m asking is to pick up a rock and at least think about it.

    They probably reckon it’s less suspicious to have her assassinated in public after the first one

      If she’s out on the streets a car accident is easily reasoned away …
      Also a “jump” from a window can be made plausible, because well she’ll be depressed now and does not want to go back behind a locked door…

      But perhaps they hope they can drum up a hyperfocussed victim who only hears the command “must kill the pedophile” and will stab her on the sidewalk.

    She’s getting wacked in an alley described as a mugging gone wrong and the CCTV is “under repair”
