It’s up to all of us regardless of borders and country’s now, remember borders are just made up lines we are all humanity!

It's up to all of you to spam the same things to the same people instead of interacting with your community?

There's always someone who hasn't seen it every time it's posted. And the fact that it always gets upvotes speaks volumes to the community's interest.

Post it more. Keep Epstein the story over stupid distractions like Trump's diagnosis and putting cane sugar in US Coca-Cola.

OP has been told many times that they’re deliberately spreading a hoax. They know they’re doing the exact same thing as MAGAs do with pizzagate and birtherism. They’ve become the monster they hate.

Edit: and of course this factual comment is voted out of view by those who so desperately want to emulate the pizzagaters and birthers, and who won’t even take the five seconds to research that the Katie Johnson story is a complete hoax.

Please share how verified court documents, flight records, and direct quotes from Tump are a hoax.

I already commented on this, but I'd like to address your later edit to your comment regarding Katie Johnson and your belief that the stories of her related to Trump are a hoax.

The earlier poster pointed out that many people think it is a hoax and provided a video of her interview, which supports the claims.

Why do you believe it to a hoax, given this evidence? I'm not trying to bully or start a fight, I'm genuinely curious and consider myself to have an open mind, but I always trust evidence over theory. If you can provide evidence of a hoax, I'm open to considering the possibility.

Have a great day.

It may not forget but it’s extremely quick to stop caring

Courtney Love's name is also circled, I certainly did not expect to see her there, perhaps it's signifying something else?

According to the first youtube link, the contact list was taken by Epstein's house manager who circled everyone on the list that he thought was "involved" with trafficking. Some of them also have "witness" written near them.

Several bank contacts and what appear to be massage services are also circled. So, in addition to clients the circled names likely include people who enabled the trafficking in some way or maybe just knew about it.

Great reporting ! How unpresidential can this get. It is rather revolting.

Save this comment, copy it and plaster it everywhere.

I wonder what would happen if someone used bots to repeatedly share this on different social media platforms where more people can see. Would they become desensitised to it or more angry over time?
