Does anyone have the pics that are gone?

The missing files, which were available on Friday and no longer accessible by Saturday, included images of paintings depicting nude women and one showing a series of photographs along a credenza and in drawers.

In that image, inside a drawer among other photos, was a photograph of Mr Trump, alongside Epstein, Melania Trump and Epstein's longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell.

Similar images of the credenza with the drawer closed are still online.

Edit: Here it is, I didn't realize that it was the top pic, lol

Yes, he gave them his blessing. That photo was released in other places:

If they think every single one of those images wasn't immediately backed up on every newspapers cloud and local storage immediately they are fucking idiots. Any journalist worth their salt already had multiple hard copies printed and stashed in different bank vaults. You can't put something like this on the Internet and then just try to take it down.

Look, we know that epstein recorded trump going balls deep on bill's clinton. They are just protecting a victim... who raped a lot of kids.

Well obv, they had some that were not completely redacted, they had to take them down, redact them and then they could be re uploaded
