Ken B said...: I don’t know if Acosta behaved badly re Epstein. I do know that that was the only time Epstein was ever convicted, and that he was feted by Hollywood and politicians after that.

Fen said...: I'm looking for someone in the national media to take my account of my experiences with a child pedophile ring in the SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism - Atlantia, east coast). The perp is dead now but his protectors include a DC attorney and a DC public defender.

The incidents involve 5 pre-teen girls of single mothers, death threats, honey pot traps to blackmail witnesses, other forms of witness intimidation ("if you continue to pursue this, people you care about will be hurt") and threats of lawfare to silence accusers (along the lines of "maybe you aren't being libelous, but it will cost you $30k and 3 years to prove your innocence, do you have that?")

I'm not looking to make any money or to write a book for profit. I had to back down because of the threats, but it still nags at me when I try to sleep. I need to put it to rest. They shouldn't be allowed to get away with this, and they will likely use the same playbook again.

If you have any contacts that might be interested, say perhaps in a "It's not just Esptein" angle, please put them in touch.; 7/10/19, 9:19 PM
traditionalguy said...: And the beat goes on. The nasty London scum pretends Trump is not respecting them for their act that they are our ally...who merely wants to destroy our President and stay vassals of the German Reich.

Big Mike said...: I think it would be interesting to have the FBI examine the bank records of Alex Acosta and Barry Krisher around the time of Epstein's indictment and plea bargain, plus the bank records of the Cy Vance around the time Epstein was taken off the sex offender registry.

Acosta's presser leaves a lot of unanswered questions, in my opinion, and here is part of the problem- the people asking the questions today insisted on asking all the wrong ones- the press people there today are fucking morons.; 7/10/19, 11:35 PM

Something stinks there. How does a guy without a college degree get a job from BS in the first place, then go on to make junior partner that quickly, then get enough clientele for a hedge fund, without a college degree?

So, for example, you have a large chunk of money to invest. Are you going to invest it with an Epstein? Or a finance major from Wharton? Maybe he was a brilliant salesman, and that overcame the sort of formal credentials that people tend to look for when entrusting them with their money. He never seems to have had a reputation of being a whiz with making money for people, and his hedge fund apparently doesn’t have an army of shrewd money managers working for it, but rather a bunch of clerks.

Blackmail may be the answer. One thought may be that he started pimping out the Dalton girls, and the resulting blackmail list got him the clientele he used to make partner at BS. As I understand it, ability to bring in money is one of the big ways to make partner in that type of business, and he could use BS money management capabilities to actually not lose money for his clientele. Seems pretty slick - the blackmail money is hidden by running it through a very reputable money management company. His blackmail targets wouldn’t show blackmail or prostitution charges on their charge cards or bank statements, but rather just money flowing into an investment account with a very legitimate investment company. After getting booted from BS, the natural next step is a hedge fund.

Bruce Hayden said...: “New York city police investigating after posters featuring the U.S. women's soccer player Megan Rapino were defaced with derogatory slurs at a midtown subway station. The world-cup MVP has been an outspoken advocate for gender equity and LGBTQ inclusion.”

Women’s soccer i this country has long been thought to be filled with a lot of lesbians, secondly only to softball. And Rapino is the butchest looking on the team. What are the odds that she is the bull dyke lesbian on the team? Her hair, alone, both it’s butch cut, and color, set her off from her teammates.

Maybe she is, and maybe she isn’t, a lesbian. But if she truly wanted gay acceptance here, she shouldn’t have gone all unAmerican, refusing to go to the White House to celebrate the American team victory. She seems to want her cake and to be able to eat it herself - she seems to want gay acceptance from people she is shitting on by refusing to share her victory with the country by shitting on the President they elected, and the White House they own.

Why do NASCAR drivers tend to earn a lot more money, and are a lot more well known, than our world champion women’s soccer team? One big reason is the NASCAR wraps itself in the American flag. Rapino, in particular, seems to run as far and as fast as she can in the opposite direction. She doesn’t like us, so why should we like her?

Which gets to why there was some anti LGBTxyz sentiment aimed at her. Probably much of the country believes her to be a lesbian, and that sentiment is assumed to be hurtful to her as a result. They don’t like her personally because she dislikes them, their views, their religion, and their lifestyles. Antigay sentiments are an obvious way to hit back at her, personally, for what she said about and to them.; 7/11/19, 8:41 AM

The former Palm Beach County State Attorney had made national news three times during his career. Once when he went after Rush Limbaugh, then after Ann Coulter, two Republicans, and when, after being handed the case of Epstein, a co-founder of the Clinton Global Initiative, he gave him a pass.

Barry Krischer is a Democrat. Jeffrey Epstein is a billionaire donor to Democrats.

As Chief Prosecutor, Krischer had made his reputation with a zero-tolerance policy of prosecuting juveniles as adults. But after Epstein had abused underage girls, Krischer, according to the detective on the case, ignored police efforts to charge him with four counts of unlawful sexual activity with a minor and instead the billionaire abuser was indicted only on a minor charge of solicitation of prostitution.

Yeah. Those Democrats have good party discipline.; 7/11/19, 9:58 AM

Private schools don't care anywhere near as much about credentials as public schools do.; 7/11/19, 10:03 AM

I think you need to pay attention more. Or you mistake me for someone else.; 7/11/19, 11:13 AM

What are the odds that she is the bull dyke lesbian on the team? Her hair, alone, both it’s butch cut, and color, set her off from her teammates.

Maybe she is, and maybe she isn’t, a lesbian.

She is openly lesbian, and married to a female basketball player. Two other women on the team are engaged to each other. (Krieger and Harris); 7/11/19, 11:23 AM

tsk tsk, How can you ignore women's basketball ? The Dinah Shore golf and tennis tournaments are lesbian national holidays.; 7/11/19, 1:02 PM

Rapinoe is indeed a lesbian. She and Sue Bird are an item.
The Seattle media has been breathlessly feting them as the new 'Power Couple.'

It would take a heart of stone to not feel sorry for how poorly they've all been treated.; 7/11/19, 5:10 PM

Huh? They chose to play for the Rainbow flag instead of the American, and then regarded me as the hateful bigot for not clapping loud enough. She's just trying to score a Kappernick deal, stirring up shit between gays and straights to make an extra buck. I'm sure normal gays don't appreciate it either.

"Bake me a fucking cake" has set support of gay rights back a decade.; 7/12/19, 12:06 PM
Fen said...: Rapinoes's antics on and off the field is not going to be helpful for women's soccer.

They've lost me. And I grew up with soccer. And yes, the team is at fault too - they had a responsibility to put her in check and they had the means to do so. No innocent bystanders here.

But it's just another entertainment I've had to give up due to it becoming politicized in order to lecture me about not doing something that I'm already not doing. How is that fun? I have better things to do than dodge stones being thrown at their imaginary monsters.; 7/12/19, 12:15 PM
