I mean people don’t know where Epstein’s initial capital came from. He wasn’t independently wealthy. He must have had some sort of secret financing from some silent of silent partner

I swear he ran a pedo-brothel of sorts and acted like these mega rich people's friend but blackmailed them for money and silence. These poor surviving girls/women know that these are powerful people that abused them and would probably be killed for talking out. Who knows who he was working for CIA or Mossad. I just wish someone would release it all and let the pieces fall on whoever is guilty.

Yes that’s what the entire Epstein list is — because that is what he did. I’m saying no one knows how he got the capital he used to start that up. You don’t just walk up to senators and billionaires and say hey I have little girls you can diddle. You need power and money to access power and money, and no one knows where he got that initial power and money. Many of us feel it was that he was selected to be the front man by someone who was the silent funder — and I think it’s likely that person is now in the White House

Hundreds of millions more through others.”
