The Devil Himself! - The Worst of The Epstein Files

Last week, the Department of Justice finally got around to releasing over three million pages of records related to their Jeffrey Epstein investigations. This massive data dump, which includes everything from emails to vacation photos, was intended to be the final word on a scandal that has lingered over the global establishment like a particularly persistent bad smell.

We have two US presidents, a rotating cast of British and European royals, and almost every significant name in business, law, and high finance.

Many people who claimed that they only had tangental relationships with Epstein were shown to be a lot closer than they had admitted. It would appear that the tech elites had to invent AI chat bots to replace Epstein. But while he was alive, he seems to have been the person they turned to to get their questions answered.

A document known as EFTA 01667, which contained a list of unverified FBI tips about the US president, briefly became the most famous PDF on the internet before it was scrubbed from the site the next morning. As of this recording, it has not been re-uploaded. The DOJ later explained that they were rectifying redaction errors, so maybe it'll reappear soon.

The first big scandal to break was about Bill Gates, where we learned about a more practical side to his relationship with Epstein. In two frantic, typoritten emails that Epstein sent to his own inbox in 2013, he appeared to suggest that Mr. Gates contracted an STD from Russian girls and asked Jeffrey to get him antibiotics so that he could secretly give them ...
