Dershowitz states that there is an Epstein list and he has seen it. Not good at all for the attorney general or the FBI director. Or Alina Habbaba.

In any case, I'm not a follower of Trump. I'm not a follower of anybody. I'm a follower only of my own moral principles and priorities.

Uh, prior, you made the claim that people following their "own moral principles and priorities" is what's killing Western civilization, killing the world, and, if you believe what you just said you believe, you're responsible for Hitler.

You claimed there is only one set of moral principles and priorities that anyone can follow (based on one particular ancient superstition), and whoever doesn't follow that one set is either evil, or allowing evil (so, technically, passively evil, regardless).

Now you're claiming you follow your own moral principles?!?

WTF?

It might be good to substitute the catch-all term "Hitler" with Stalin, Pol Pot, Mao, or even the EU from time to time. In that way, people may get a better grasp of the despotism, tyranny, and enslavement that exist in a good-hearted socialism and communism world.
BTW, if the principles involve peace, prosperity, life, and freedom, then they are "IMHO" superior.
 
I'm not on a team though unless it is team USA. That simply means that I agree with many of Trump's efforts but disagree on a few. But I absolutely abhor when people put words in another's mouth. Perhaps you didn't realize that your words could be seen that way. But that is not what Trump said which is why I asked for a clip or quote. I think that we have to be very careful about trying to summarize what someone else has said (Trump, other posters, etc.) because we inject our own language that often is inflammatory, and the meaning gets twisted.

I disagree with your thought on letting the Epstein issue die a quiet death. Evil wins if that happens. It will happen again and more brazenly if no one is held accountable. Also, many who committed sexual assault on minor sex slaves will go unpunished and likely are already repeating these crimes.

Right, I understand you feel the word "traitor" misrepresents Trump's words. I respect your opinion on that...but I disagree with it.

To me, "traitor" is an accurately figurative term for (paraphrasing Trump) "people who were once on my side but are now effectively serving the other side's interests."

By the way, I did present the actual post from Trump. It was embedded in the ZeroHedge article. For whatever reason, I can't get his Truth Social posts to copy over as is possible with Twitter.

In any case, neither one of us is going to convince the other on what to me is a question of semantics and what to you goes beyond semantics.

I think, like it or not, there are what might be called teams...or whatever word you want to use...on the American scene nowadays. (I mean, we all like to think we're on Team USA after all.)

The reality is that one team espouses a Jacobin platform of radical positions that are alien to this country's traditions, hostile to its history, and founded on a philosophy of moral relativism where "truth" is defined as whatever serves the interests of the Party. It's been called "soft totalitarianism."

Another team consists of those with characters good and bad, intellects smart and dumb...holding a variety of views but almost all of them in keeping with American traditions and norms...and proceeding from the core moral premise, foundational to Western Civilization, that we don't get to choose our own reality or own Truth.

The third team, probably a plurality, is possessed of those with goodhearted and decent instincts, as most people are, but is for the most part informationally clueless, philosophically unanchored, and morally adrift with the tide. This group actually decides the outcomes of elections, which is why we've seen such wild political swings over the last 20 years. I'm guessing we'll see one again in November 2026.

Final note re Epstein and the "quiet death" scenario. I have no problem at all with your view that we can't just let it go. In fact, that's where my son is coming from as well and as a biased Dad, I tend to find a lot to like in my son's opinions even when I don't totally agree with them.

But the guy who does have a problem with your take...as expressed quite, uh, forcefully yesterday...is Trump. So really your argument on Epstein is not with me but rather with the President. I trust you realize that.
 
The FBI and justice department have had this info for years. Comey's daughter was in charge, no friend of Trump. No charges have ever been filed. Prima faces evidence that Trump is right. This is just another Democrat hoax to take our eyes off the target. WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!! USEFUL IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!

Your refusal to admit that Trump not only didn't call all of his supporters traitors but that your statement saying this was inaccurate makes me much less inclined to trust you as a poster or a person. It's OK for you to say that you are wrong when you are wrong. But you won't and that makes you less trustworthy. It's no different than the liberal posters or liberal media smearing Trump or conservatives for things that were never said. End of discussion. I don't have anything else to discuss with you.
 
The FBI and justice department have had this info for years. Comey's daughter was in charge, no friend of Trump. No charges have ever been filed. Prima faces evidence that Trump is right. This is just another Democrat hoax to take our eyes off the target. WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!! USEFUL IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!
Excuse me Mary but your argument that systematic rape of minors who were kept as sex slaves against their will by potentially a government operative (Israeli or otherwise) should just be forgotten is poor. I don't care if you want to call me names (useful idiots) or that you think this somehow takes our eyes off the target as if we can only do one thing at a time. Letting it just disappear is evil. It is allowing evil to win because you want something else. Doing the wrong thing because it is convenient is never right. This issue needs to be appropriately addressed. The argument that it somehow takes away from the rest of your goals is just dumb. Address it in an appropriate way. Hold those who committed crimes against minors accountable.

Comey's daughter wasn't "in charge" ... she was involved. Can you ever state anything factually, or do you have to lie all the time?

This was a MAGAt hoax, scoobs. The MAGAts kept pushing that the Epstein case was proof Dems were pedos, and when the list came out, all these powerful Dems would be outed as the pedos they were. You were all excited that Trump's administration was finally going to reveal all of this. Trump himself said he'd reveal all of this.

Then he did an about face, said there's nothing there, insulted those who thought there was something there (including himself), and now you're trying to claim it was a Dem hoax? You're being a useless idiot. Go back to sleep.

And what the absolute freak is "prima faces evidence"? Good lord.

I have not devoted my life to studying slime. FACT! Justice and FBI have had all data for years. A Trump enemy was the Fed prosecutor in charge. No one has ever been charged. That is prima faced evidence that this is mostly a hoax. How many girl scout badges were found at Epstein's estate? LMAOROFL. USEFUL IDIOTS! HOAX.

Mary, whatever helps you sleep at night. There are clearly many minor victims, and many had come forward on multiple occasions. All of that is documented. How is there all of these victims and crimes but no one has ever been identified and prosecuted for committing the sex crimes on those minor victims?

Man you don’t let things go and are a miserable person. This reminds me of your tow truck posts on the rivals site. Brutal

I offered an opportunity for Jerry to come clean on misrepresenting what Trump said. He chose to double down on misrepresenting. That doesn't make me miserable; I actually have a pretty amazing life and am very happy. It does make me consistent and I'm being honest with him. I trust him less as a poster and a person. If you can't be honest about what someone else says, then how good is your word?

I'm not going to try to misrepresent what you post. I may disagree with most of what you think but I won't intentionally try to misrepresent it.

No prosecutions = HOAX Why would Comey's daughter and FBI agents not bring prosecutions for crines. There are dozens of people involved, all of whom would have to conspire for your statements and assumptions to be true. Russiagate was "real" too.
Tens of thousands of teenaged girls are having sex with rich adults every week. Sadly, statutory rape is among the most common crimes.
 
Like the Las Vegas mass shooting story that just went away. No hotel footage. No explanation. People just want to know who Epstein was, how he came to own a mansion on his own island, what IC connections he had, how was it that he was associated with many of the rich and powerful, how was this "hoax" concocted and for what purpose, etc. etc. etc. Trump or one of his spokespeople should lay out the summary of events. It would take less than five minutes.

Right, fake real estate mogul and fake scientist. When someone lies, and won't own up to it, it makes you think less of them as a poster and a person.

Remember, amidst all your other lies, when you said you were leaving the other board and never coming back ... and then you came back?

No wonder everyone can't think less of you, and can't trust you less.

You are dishonest. Most of the board acknowledges this. You'll be my first ignore because your posts have zero value.

My degrees and my experience as an instructor and later as my department's laboratory program director at one of the top universities in the country are in a hard science. I also do own a number of rental properties, and I retired comfortably in my early 40s. Why is this so difficult to believe and what reason would I have to make that up?

Get lost loser. Onto ignore you go.

End of discussion? LOL. Well that settles it then.

No seriously, I think my statement was accurate in every respect for the reasons I gave.

You appear to be clinging to the meaning of "traitor" as one who commits treason, which happens to be only the secondary definition of the word in Merriam Webster. MW's primary definition is "one who betrays another's trust or is false to an obligation or duty," which was precisely the meaning of the President's words. Any attempt to deny that is either evasive semantics or pure gaslighting.

Regarding your newfound lack of trust in my credibility as a poster and a person for having the gall to use English words in accordance with their dictionary meaning, no offense, but your opinion with regard to my trustworthiness is not real high on my list of concerns.

Finally, I find it ironic how wound up you got over my criticism of Trump, which wasn't aimed at you and didn't mention you, but how comparatively unperturbed you are over the fact that the President called you a weakling and Dem-Mediacrat tool for holding an entirely reasonable position on Epstein. It seems like a case of psychological transference where your anger is not directed at the guy who insulted you but rather at the guy who pointed out the insult.

OK, now this is something we can agree on... ;)

Since Hillary Clinton was never prosecuted for illegally having 30,000+ classified emails on her hard drive does that mean it was a hoax. Look, you've got a prosecutor, on the record several times, saying the justice department told him to back off prosecuting Epstein because he was an intelligence asset.

So, you reiterated some of your lies ... and then you avoided discussing your other lies ... like the one where you said you were leaving and never coming back.

So, if you actually believe what you said about Jerry, and thinking less about a poster and a person if they lie ... then you don't think much of yourself.

Correct, fake scientist and fake real estate mogul?
