Trump Is Not Complicit With Epstein

 

            In these weeks leading up to the election, in general, and due to the notoriety of Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes and his connections to numerous figures, President Trump has been tied to Epstein in a variety of manners. Most of them, as any supposed connection to Epstein is, are defamatory and negative in nature. Every accusation, however, has been created from a combination of exaggeration, conflation, and outright manipulation of the truth and evidence. Put simply, Donald Trump is not complicit with Jeffrey Epstein, and that argument is far too easy to make. 

            There are two main arguments that these people who wish to tie Trump to Epstein use. First, is his presence in Epstein’s flight plans to his private island. Secondly, it is Trump’s supposed involvement with Jeffrey Epstein’s exploitation of Virginia Giuffre. Both prove easy to deconstruct once you look into them, despite how foolproof and concrete they might appear. First off, we will deal with Trump’s interpersonal relationship with Epstein.

            We must address an unpleasant reality, however, when focusing on Epstein and Trump. Donald Trump did in fact, regrettably, have a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. But the word have is a key detail, for I speak in the past tense. Donald Trump was indeed aboard Jeffrey Epstein’s private plane in January 1997,(1) he did put together a party with Epstein in 1992,(2) and there are a few other possible interactions they had. But, when looking deep into these interactions, it is hard to truly spot anything incriminating, they were just…odd. The 1997 flight log seems to show the final recorded interaction between Trump and Epstein, and occurred well before Epstein’s first criminal charge (which was around 2006).(3) Trump is recorded as having called Epstein a “terrific guy” in a magazine interview in 2002, but again this is well before Epstein was ever incriminated for anything publicly.

            While it cannot be exonerated as to what occurred during that 1997 flight, it was simply a flight from Palm Beach to Newark, which – considering their company, too – might indicate nothing more than Trump, Epstein, and associates were leaving a gathering in Palm Beach (where both men owned property) and returned to New York (through Newark) to resume their business. The 1992 party, which occurred very early in their relationship and very isolated from any public disclosure of Epstein’s criminal activities, and even before the earliest known crime committed by Epstein,(3) was likely just a playboy’s party, especially considering Trump’s recently divorced status. While, as a conservative Christian, I do not condone this type of behavior, nor any other instance of sexual immorality by Trump, I do not see any evidence that Trump could have participated in Epstein’s depraved sex crimes, which is what matters the most to me.

            Other than these several appearances together spread over the years, and terminating before the earliest criminal charge was levied against Epstein in 2006, there is the supposed, and more serious, connection of Trump to Virginia Giuffre, Epstein’s earliest victim and one of his most outspoken opponents. However, this too is disprovable, and with much greater certainty than the previous section. Namely, because Mrs. Giuffre herself denies the connection. During a deposition on November 14, 2016, which was revealed in August of 2019, Giuffre stated that "...he [Donald Trump] didn’t partake in any sex with us...Donald Trump never flirted with me."(4) Well, there you have it. Straight from her mouth, the person so widely used to incriminate Trump has exonerated the man of all allegations.

            That is all there is too it, as the evidence shows. While conjecture does not prove arguments as well as empirical fact, one must ask: if Trump’s appearances alongside Epstein are enough to incriminate him, why are other names that appear like Clinton (who also denied connections to Epstein) innocent? The blatant hypocrisy that exists around this entire situation must be overcome and the truth observed. Such as in this article, where the truth is revealed regarding Trump, and his barely suspicious relationship with Epstein. Despite what narrative people might try to push, the facts stand in Trump’s favor and innocence.

Conquest's Second Law and Libertarianism

  IN political science there is a concept known as “Conquest’s laws of politics.” It is named after Robert Conquest, a conservative British historian best known for his books on the Soviet Union . Similar to Asimov’s “Three Laws of Robotics,” Conquest’s laws define three principles of political action that can be considered reliably accurate. These three laws are: Everyone is conservative about what he knows best. Any organization not explicitly right-wing sooner or later becomes left-wing. The simplest way to explain the behavior of any bureaucratic organization is to assume that is controlled by a cabal of its enemies. All these laws have interesting implications and can be looked at one by one. However, today the one law that I want us to focus on in particular is the second law, that, “Any organization not explicitly right-wing sooner or later becomes left-wing.” It certainly sounds interesting and can have broad implications for political strategy. For libertarians in ...

What Is Going on in Kazakhstan?

            I don’t know if it’s just me, but from what I can tell not many people are aware of the social unrest ongoing in Kazakhstan . It seems to be getting glossed over by Western media outlets. Considering the Deep State control of the mainstream media , this relative silence is likely an engineered matter. Likely, the powers that be do not want knowledge of this event to spread. That being said, we are going to look into this event and see what it is that they might be hiding from us.           Kazakhstan is an important member of Russia’s post-Soviet sphere of influence, reorganized as the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO), and so whatever happens to it has geopolitical implications for Russia. As anyone observant of international power dynamics knows, Russia is in competition with the Euro-American Deep State. NATO , the military arm of the Euro-American cartel, is trying to reach its te...

Active Measures: Part II, "Destabilization"

This is second part of a planned three-part series that will focus on analyzing the origins, perpetrators, and fulfillment of Soviet-style subversive “active measures” in the United States and elsewhere in the West. Because of the amount of information that there is to talk about, owing to the enormity of data that is revealed through thorough research of this subject, this multi-volume approach has been taken. This second article will be analyzing the strategy of “destabilization”.           BACK in the 1980s, George E. Griffin held an interview with KGB defector Yuri Bezmenov. This interview exposed the strategies the Soviet Union was using in order to infiltrate and subvert other nations, most likely the United States. Bezmenov sounded confident that these strategies were indeed being used (being ex-KGB he absolutely knew if they were or weren’t) and that they were succeeding. The first strategy, which we explored in the first article...
