Breaking: Jeffrey Epstein has been arrested for allegedly sex trafficking dozens of minors in New York and Florida between 2002 and 2005, and will appear in court in New York on Monday.

A big score for SDNY. https://t.co/HPyCb9dLj1

Epstein-Trump financial connection?
or tinfoil hat stuff?

Let's f*cking do this, shall we?

There is a direct financial connection between Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein that is at the root of their relationship. A name that few mention.
And I'm not talking about Mogilevich.

just a reminder for whoever wants to go there further than Alexander Acosta:

According to flight records, Bill Clinton flew on Epstein's plane 26 times.[59] ~ Wikipedia

and then there's others in the accusation stories like Leslie Wexner

Like he says:

Great news that Jeffrey Epstein may finally face justice for his appalling crimes against minors. Anybody who thinks this ugly scandal will benefit any political party is woefully naive. There's ample filth to go around here for Dems & GOP alike. Our system is rotten to the core.

Different number than I saw the last day or 2, but the really alarming ones are 1) Bill flying from Miami to Westchester ("Honey, I'm home!") and 2) Bill using Epstein's plane to fly a Foundation entourage around Africa for AIDS prevention. Pretty damning stuff.

by PeraclesPlease on Sun, 07/07/2019 - 6:08pm

Flying on a rich guys aircraft is bad judgment with this guy, not illegal. There have been zero claims by women against Clinton.One with Dershowitz, see '2' below.

"The investment banker maintained an impressive contacts list, from Hollywood to Washington. He was a generous philanthropist, donating millions of dollars to Harvard and other institutions engaged in cutting-edge scientific research.

He once counted Bill Clinton, Donald Trump, Kevin Spacey and Naomi Campbell among his associates, frequently lent his private jet to powerful contacts and became famed for his extravagant parties". guardian

-------------------------------- ------------

2 -(Dershowitz) -" The Harvard law professor accused of having sex with a minor on private planes and properties owned by the multimillionaire financier Jeffrey Epstein has launched a legal bid to formally strike those “outrageous and impertinent” allegations from a Florida court motion. "

The GOP won't let this die, but yes, when you're going on someone's plane for an African AIDS awareness tour, there will be multiple flights. Surprised Hillary's emails haven't come up, but theyI *have* resumed bashing her for enabling her husband's behavior and attacking his mistresses. Classy bunch as always.

President Clinton’s office is saying there were four trips but they note in the statement there were multiple stops on each trip which is where this Fox News number comes from.

Note the statement from WJC uses the word “trip” and not “flight.” https://t.co/CJGGqhnMiK
