I know it's the onion, but really, wouldn't several countries have a copy of the list by now?

Double agents, hacking attacks, who knows what the chain of command custody was on the hard drives cds and thumb drives they cut out of epsteins safe when the fbi raided his Manhattan townhouse mansion in ‘19. Intelligence agency assets are not very scrupulous people, their main motivators are money and self preservation

Because they have intelligence assets in the US government

Do you think that every single country with an intelligence asset in the US government knows every single thing that the US government knows?

No. I do not think that and frankly I find it absurd you're asking. Do you think the US government is perfectly airtight? This information was allegedly sitting on someone's desk in the justice department.

I'll let you think about that.
