That Jeffrey Epstein evidence isn't missing - there's more than you can imagine [1]

Thanks to annieli for tipping me off with the hard drive picture above in her diary on whether Pam Bondi is lying. I went looking for pictures and found a lot more than that.

When even Fox and Friends think Trump is hiding something, you know things are going wrong for Trump. Sunday morning they literally said, "I don't buy it."

Charlie Hurt said, "If there's anyone who could walk in and say, 'Okay, we've resolved all the questions, and there is nothing here,' it would be President Trump and his crew. The problem is, you can't do it without giving some explanation."

Trump will once again be upset with author Michael Wolff, who said he has "hours and hours and hours and hours and hours" of tapes with Jeffrey Epstein discussing Donald Trump. But, publishers have turned him down because the material is "too hot to handle." This is something no one knew about until now. Now that Wolff has mentioned the recorded interviews, will they come to light?

In 2019, there was a raid on Jeffrey Epstein's New York mansion. Former Palm Beach State Attorney was asked about it on MSNBC this weekend about it, and described the raid. "There was a safe, and they had to use a saw to get in the safe. And there were hard drives or thumb drives in there. What's on the thumb drives? We really don't know. So, I think there are a lot of images. I think there are ties to individuals. And perhaps the DOJ thinks there's not enough evidence to file a lawsuit, especially when you see that big celebrities like Diddy just got away with human trafficking, allegedly."

Here's the picture of that safe:

Safe found in 2019 raid. The grey box with stuff on it and stuff leaning on it.

There were a multitude of boxes out in the open. What was important enough that it had to be kept in a safe? Obviously, it had to be really important. Epstein had hidden cameras in all his properties, and his private island was completely wired for recording and viewing. He had the material for entertainment, insurance and blackmail. I'm guessing the safe contained the activities of the most important figures possible. There are public pictures that were taken of Epstein with Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, Bill Gates, and even of Ghislaine Maxwell with Elon Musk. It could be anything, but it must be something.

Epstein's island in the Virgin Islands.

Here is the 3 page list of evidence recovered in the raid (PDF). The FBI list is not labeled as coming from the raid, but it stands to reason. The Palm Beach raid was in 2005, and the island, called Little St. James, was raided by the FBI in 2020. Here's a story about the island, travel to get there, and people's observations and thoughts. Here's the screen captures. The picture transfer made it fuzzy. The PDF is sharp.

Scattered throughout the list is "Red Rope." This has now been explained to me to mean an expanding folder.

There are numerous tower computers, laptops, and Macs and iPads, along with one named a server, listed. The server alone had four 500gb drives. 2 terabytes. Who knows what the totals just on the hard drives would be. What was on the intact computers? Could they have had much of the stuff in the safe and the loose hard drives were backups, or totally different sets of videos and data?

The full shot of the box with hard drives.

There's just too damn much here to ignore. The New York Post had a field day writing about Epstein's various dens of iniquity in 2021, during the trial of Ghislaine Maxwell. The article has 62 photographs of the island and his other residences, along with evidence pictures.

I include this picture from the New York mansion because of the eerie resemblance of what Epstein did for decoration on the fireplace, to what Trump has done to the Oval Office fireplace. The gold adornments.

Fireplace similar to the one in the Oval Office.

Donald may have been inspired by it, but forgot about it. The mansion is probably where the video of Trump and Epstein talking and Trump pointing out girls dancing came from.

Here's the two page memo that Bondi put out that says exactly nothing.

Then they put out the video supposedly of Epstein's cell before and after he killed himself, with the missing minute, and had to do damage control on that. The thing is, it's not video of Epstein's cell, as I heard Julie K. Brown say on MSNBC.

So we've got a cover up with the tape, as forensic examiners have found that the tape was edited and put through multiple generations of copying. To disguise what? Here's the link on her post (PDF), which is an Executive Summary of the care he received at correctional center.

Kash Patel tried to do damage control yesterday, not very well.

This gentlemen replied to Patel's post as succinctly as anyone could summarize.

Then you've got what appears to be a feud between Pam Bondi and Dan Bongino over the Epstein files. Bongino didn't show up for work on Friday. Some sources say that he's already quit the job. Nobody knows for sure at the moment. Other reports say he's considering it. We now have to wonder if he's seen something, but can't legally release it. Everything that happens just adds to a conspiracy theory that could be correct.

I have read that some say there are no client lists. That's obviously not true. Here's two pages from one of his black books. Notice that Ghislaine Maxwell is on it. It's from a story that Leland Nally did about the black books.

Two pages of one of Epstein's black books. Some would call it a client list.

There were many of them. Both black and blue, according to witnesses in Ghislaine Maxwell's trial. Nally found an unredacted 97 page book on 8chan, and called people. That's an interesting story right there. He did it for Mother Jones.

Bondi initially said that there were tens of thousands of child porn videos that Epstein had downloaded from the internet. I don't think he needed to. He had his own collection generated from his years of running a sex trafficking operation for both himself and for clients.

There must have been tons of material on all the intact computers and that computer server in the evidence list. Then they're all the DVDs and CDs that were found. Physically printed photographs in binders. And then, there's all the hard disk drives that weren't in the computers. All the hard drives and thumb drives that were in the safe.

The evidence isn't missing. There definitely is a there there. The FBI has at least two of the black books, one from a case where one of Epstein's employees tried to sell it, and another one at Maxwell's trial. If you can't call these black books client lists, I don't know what you can. I wrote about them here.

You can't tell me that there is nothing in this incredibly huge pile of evidence. Especially from the New York mansion raid. It's written down in black and white.

Pam Bondi is either lying now, or she was lying back on Feb.21st on Fox News, when she said that the client list was sitting on her desk. The client list is just the tip of the iceberg.

What happens next? Your guess is as good as mine. Nearly every one is upset how this has been handled. But when Donald Trump says to look away, that's the last thing you should do.
