A few thoughts on the matter...
-Modern day military folk look romantically at the Spartans because "THIS.IS.SPARTA." - and yet, the Spartans were a terrible society and it was quite common for them to touch young people that they should not have been touching.
-We spent several years in the 1980's supporting the Afghans against the Russians. Then we spent 20 years in Afghanistan fighting the 'terr'ists' all the while, American foreign policy would look the other way when the Bacha Bazi issue would come up.
-Not only did American foreign policy require that US support look the other way over the Bacha Bazi custom, part of the ROE addressed proselytism. ROE usually concerns itself with who you can shoot and WHEN you can shoot them; the US had to make sure foreign policy also made sure we didn't offend anyone by talking about religion, morals, or cultural values.
Why?
Why wouldn't "American exceptionalism" extend into some sort of universally recognized moral courage?
Isn't that supposed to be part of our national values?
Isn't that part of the American Moral Code?
Or is it because "we the people" are no longer serious about being "Americans" if there isn't an associated profit margin.
Morality and Moral Values do not have an attractive profit margin.
...if it feels good do it.
So, what does that have to do with "The Epstein Scandal" ???
It's simple. Powerful people that achieve and maintain power and influence over the masses do so through corrupt means. ALL politicians find their way into permanence through corruption. Everyone in DC knows something about what went on.
"Your Guy"
"My Guy"
...all of them
...that's why there is so much consternation about "releasing the facts"
...the "truth" ain't never gonna happen.
...the "truth" doesn't exist in the Permanent District of Columbia.
So - here is a hot tip...
EVERYONE that you "THINK" has some sort of tie to this despicable scandal surrounding the Epstein scandal - has some sort of tie to the Epstein scandal. Even if it is just tacic support through long term silence for the sake of going along to get along.
Don't jump to conclusions.
Wait for the facts.
Let's not judge early.
Innocent until proven guilty.
BULL.SHIT.
That's just something lawyers without morals say to sell their clients innocence to a jury that still thinks that the justice system applies equally to everyone.
Guilty mother fuckers are guilty.
Guilty mother fuckers WALK all the time. They aren't any less guilty than they were when they stole the thing they stole, killed the person they killed, or touched the person they shouldn't have touched.
...there is a very important reason they say "found innocent" instead of just being real about it and saying "innocent"
NOBODY is ever going to be satisfied with "the results" of this entire scandal - regardless of what "findings" are released.
NOBOY
EVER
If somebody comes down on the side of the democrats - no amount of 'testimony from the grave' is ever going to exonerate Trump.
TDS will live on in infamy, comfortable in the faith that Trump did that shit. Whatever "that shit" might be.
...if PROOF surfaces that shows that slick Willie did all of the worst things imaginable and Trump never did nuttin' - never saw nuttin' -never knew nittin' - never even heard nuttin' that would connect him to nefarious behavior even to the degree of saying "he KNEW and never said anything. Joe Biden wasn't sharp, he's NOT focused, he wasn't on point, and he was incapable of engaging with everyone in the room. "Big Mike" really does have a dick...
...it wont matter - TDS sufferers will go to the grave KNOWING that their guys were framed and Trump "did that shit" and should be held accountable for so much more than just the 34 felonies he was convicted for committing.
The same goes for those on the right side of polyticks that have hopelessly invested into their KNOWLEDGE that the Clinton Crime Syndicate is a real thing...
...pizza gate
...virgin blood sacrifices
...cigar gate
...Clinton cash
...Arkancide
Proof could surface to prove beyond any degree of doubt that Madam Secretary was telling the truth all along. Trump really did steal both elections, Bush and Cheney really did orchestrate 9/11 for profit. It was all just a vast right wing conspiracy to discredit Madam Secretary's dear husband Bill. She was the one. Right all along. Standing by her man, giving him two arms to cling to, somethin' warm to come to when nights were cold and lonely, and the conservatives were just trying to destroy his legacy.
Even the claims that he sodomized a government clerk with a cigar in the oval office...
...all lies.
None of it matters - there are countless people on the right that will go to the grave KNOWING that their guys were framed by the commie, socialist, America hating leftists that will never be held accountable for any of their heinous crimes against humanity.
Yet, here we are - wondering when "the truth is gonna drop"
...its not
...your guy is guilt
YES - "your guy too"
They are all guilty.
...its part of their job description.
Now, lets all pick our favorite flavor of kool-aid, figure out which brand of bullshit suits us best, and get back to living the best life we can live, comfortable in the knowledge that the root purpose of government is to govern.
Government doesn't serve.
It governs.
You cannot and will not win against city hall.
The best you can hope for is to be ungovernable to the greatest degree possible, without being thrown in prison for supporting the "wrong side" of the aisle.
That is all,
