So are we finally bringing down those child rapists...
We brought Andrew Tate home and free, so sort of?

There was already a process to compensate the victims of Epstein's child sex trafficking ring from the Epstein Estate Victims Fund, including the children that Krasnov raped & sexually abused. That was the important thing. Bringing more attention to the cases now only puts the girls at risk for no benefit, since they were already compensated. Well they're women now. So that's practically why nothing is going to happen, I think, short of the surveillance videos leaking.
------
Edit: Fine. The reason someone from the public could know is because, although the compensation details were typically confidential, some victims went outside the fund process for aggravating factors, the most important of which was being exceptionally young, and Trump made the mistake of sexually abusing the 12 year old in 1994, "Maria" (whose abuse started with Epstein when she was 11 in 1993), by far the youngest of the lot, and when they do that, since it goes to a court and into the public record, you can get the Jane Does' ages at the time of their abuse. Jane Doe XIII is the one, and it ends with a settlement. On the one hand, I don't know why people haven't been talking about it earlier, one of Krasnov's victims got compensation from Epstein's victim's fund for the abuse, but on the other hand I understand all to well because anybody that knows about it doesn't want to put her at any more risk than she's already in. That and I think people just didn't cross reference the Jane Doe ages to the reported victims.
To be fair about this, if one were a good defense lawyer, one could find some wrinkles to challenge that conclusion, like the two main witnesses aren't trustworthy (Epstein's staff, history of trauma, drug use) and brought Maria's name into it just to bolster their "fake" case. But the fact that most of victims that Tiffany (witness #2) testified for got compensated in the end is a check in favor of her credibility on the whole. (Why tell the truth for all of these other victims only to lie about this one? Etc. Also other things once it's obvious she's Epstein's 1990s handler, like other victims testifying on her behalf.) And Katie (witness #1) made a contemporaneous account, which usually has probative value (you're not thinking about a political vendetta or cash-in 30 years later when you're 13 years old, etc.) I think one could persuade a jury, but a prosecutor would have work to do.

Looks like another Truck of Peace in Germany. Happy Ramadan, y'all! I wish there was a way AFD voters could be exempted from these culling events. After all, THEY did not vote for more of this last week. :(
The "truck" was a (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Fiesta) Ford Fiesta. The driver was a fourty-year old German man who had committed several crimes in the past. The police currently has found no connection of
this crime to political views, but there are indications that the man was mentally unstable or mentally sick. The driver could not be interrogated until now because he shot himself in the mouth prior to being captured by the police. I would not yet rely too much on all this information because it's usually about one or two weeks until the majority of information on such incidents has been uncovered, but so far it looks like the only info that's correct in the cited post is that it happened in Germany.
One of the past crimes of this murderous driver, however, was "hate speech" in the form of a hate post on the internet some time ago. At the Munich Security Conference, J. D. Vance wanted the Europeans to
allow such things because of "freedom of speech". Thus, he
did "vote" for more of this, especially since several similar incidents where done by supporters of radical islam, and they often radicalized themselves on the internet via "social" media. But, hey, what's wrong with a U.S. vice president telling lies about Selenskyj not saying "thank you", and also supporting people killing innocent citizens in other countries?:weird:

baeuchlein - Don't bother talking sense to Phreaky. Even if he understands you, he is incapable of honest engagement. He still insists he is Trump-neutral.

No, I support Trump obviously. I have little use for most of the Republican Party though.

Correction. Previously insisted he was Trump-neutral. Now sporting full hard-on for American fascism.
My bad.

They WANT to believe, it's why trumpism works.
It's why it's called "post truth world", they just refuse that "believing" is passive process of accumulation of notions with no contradictions but an active process of affirmation of whatever you want (the "will").
It's the ultimate nemesis/reckoning of the "age of enlightment+positivism" (and their technocratic expression in politics, marxist communism being the grandfather of them) and they - idealistis and spititualists acting as revanchists/chauvinists, just take Bannon as example - are thrilled they can finally get out of the closets just saying "
it's the common sense revolution!!111" ("common sense" is the buzzword used in all conservative movements, opposed to "science")
They've waited for so long.....so you get these Courts of Miracles like the actual US governement.

Yes, some of them are already firmly embedded in their point of view (and call it "common sense" - just like some here in Germany do). These are not the ones whom I try to reach. But according to some research made in Europe, in similar cases there's also a group of people who might just be starting to believe in these things, and these ones can still be reached and convinced to change their view.
