Ikr? Like how is this even a question.
That's who she's thanking. There's a longer, darker list of people she's protecting
Let's not forget about his entourage..

No shit...
Why did people think trump moved her to a fucking country club?
They should have held her in contempt and thrown her back in real jail. But she obviously got bribed/threatened and cooperated. The day she got moved to the country club anyone with a half a brain knew she wasn't gonna snitch.
Trump. She's protecting Trump. Also herself, since suicide might become contagious if she talks. How is this even a question?
She is protecting her benefactors. ALMOST surprised she hasn't been fully pardoned yet. I would look for that in the last few days of second term if he lives that long.
I would argue she's protecting herself, given that her closest associate ended up with a Hyoid bone fracture in police custody after unaliving himself. It's not like they can put her in double-jail with contempt of court charges. Why would she say anything at all?
Also a good point. But could still see that pardon coming on as a thank you
Trump's not going to remove her leash until he's on his way out of office.
That or that’s when she kills herself.

If she gets pardoned, she loses 5th ammendment protections, as I understand it (because the pardon means anything said can't incriminate her). So it opens a can of worms that she might rather keep closed because then she could be kept in real prison for contempt for refusing to speak (which she will regardless of the legal consequences because those aren't the ones she fears the most).
because the pardon means anything said can’t incriminate her
Only for the things that the pardon covers, and for the time period up to the pardon. For example, you can be pardoned for a bank robbery conviction but can still get charged with that act of cannibalism that you also did.
Still damned if he does because either he needs to mention specific things to limit the scope of the pardon and incriminates himself, or keeps it vague and she loses the 5th ammendment protections from talking.
I dont understand the rules at all there, but im given to understand the rules dont matter so much right now
“Who is she protecting?"
Who is she protecting?
Trump, herself, most of the current administration, 1/3 of the Supreme Court, FOX News anchors.... The list goes on and on.
Once alternate proof of trump's degeneracy shows up in the files her life will become essentially worthless. She should curry favour to the other side while she has the opportunity.
She's protecting herself. Duh.
By not talking she's far less likely to run afoul of somebody with the means to suicide her via two gunshots to the back of the head.
Yeah. She's worried she might commit suicide by accident if she talks too much.
Daughter of the most famous Israeli spy ever.
I mean someone already can. His name is Donald Trump.
She must have a dead man's switch somewhere.

She should not ever get out. Why she is not serving 99+ life sentences is beyond me. With how much violence she brought to children she deserves much more that a minimum security prison.
The states she sodomized children in should all press new charges so she can go to state prison once her Federal sentence is done.
"Who is she protecting? And how many times will that orange painted geriatric imbecile have shit themselves today? It's a mystery I tell ya."
She will say Trump wasn't there in exchange for a pardon.
She claims she has dirt to swap for freedom, but nothing on Trump or Clinton. I don't know about Clinton, but Epstein talked about Trump being evil on numerous occasions. It's clear that he was up to SOMETHING, so if she claims there's nothing, shes lying.
She's one of the most notorious and prolific child sex traffickers in human history, she gets NO mercy. Toss her in a dungeon.
Fuck that. Tie her to the bumper of a truck and drive down 300 miles of road paved with barbwire and broken glass, thats lined with lemon juice sprinklers.
To be fair I dont wanna end up dead in my cell or prolong my sentence either if I was her
Herself. If she seems to be cooperating with law enforcement she's going to kill herself with two headshots from the back.
She's trying to not get murdered in her cell...
Calling it now:
Once she lies endlessly about how Trump and his cronies are all innocent and how all of Epstein and her clients were Dems, Trump won't pardon her.
He'll kill her like he killed Epstein. Keeping her alive is too great of a risk. She's playing into his hand like a fiddle, unless she's planning on going out in a blaze of glory and exposing Trump in the end.
He'll kill her like he killed Epstein.
I figured she wasn't "dead" yet because they didn't have a body double lined up for her. Once they do, she'll be "dead" while living in luxury in Tel Aviv.
Why would they bother keeping her alive with some elaborate scheme? How does that benefit them?
Thing is before all these file releases I'd have expressed doubt in the "he's still alive conspiracy".
Now though, I increasingly find myself doubting he's dead instead by the day.
At this point I feel like everyone with a few brain cells can put together that either he was killed by someone, or at a minimum given the chance to do it himself. Lots pointing to that he was murdered by a third party, but that very easily could have been a talk about how he's in the best spot he'll be, hasn't testified for or against anyone, innocent until proven guilty. Given whatever drugs he wants or didn't. He knew this was the possibility since the 80s so they just gave him the chance and he did do it.
I think most people with experience/knowledge in the intelligence industry know there is so much more to this. MSM says he was working with Russia. The last files prove he was working with Isreal. He's american and operated primarily in the US. Consulted in Africa and Asia. He was everywhere and any can go anywhere. Other than Islamic countries, Epstein has connections to be securely anywhere. Bum ass CIA agents that get $150k a year get facial reconstruction, new identities that check out in any database, live in adversary countries for decades. And people think making Epstein disappear is insane.
I disagree. Anyone this high up in shit has a dead man's switch. Killing her is a fools errand.
I hope she does have a dead man's switch. And maybe that's why she hasn't been killed yet.
Although, we know Trump is a fucking idiot with dementia who acts long before he does anything that might be qualified as thinking. We'll just have to see. We'd be foolish, and Trump would me more foolish to not assume she is still in charge of this whole thing.
For example, both President Trump and President Clinton are innocent of any wrongdoing
Just in case anyone thought that her lawyer wasn't a pathological liar of colossal proportions 🤦
I love how these people love to try to add Clinton in there as a poison pill, constantly.
DGAF if he goes down, too. Fuck it. I also doubt he's as culpable as the likes of Donvict, but, even so....
Can someone explain why she would want to say anything to them? Anything she says is an admission. She's still trying to appeal her conviction. How would it make sense for her to talk.
If she keeps her mouth shut, maybe the appeal works or maybe she gets a pardon. If she speaks, she stays in prison right up to the moment when she commits suicide.
Who cares what the criminal intelligence asset says? Anything she says is poison facts that need to be corroborated from another source.
The list if powerful pedophiles is long.
In technical sports terms this is known as a “Sticky Wicket”. We are all waiting and watching. If we need to breakdown this term for anyone, well then, we needn’t. If it doesn’t make any sense, please do take us up on this offer to please allow yourself in front of a vehicle that is traveling at a high rate of speed. I apologize. This whole thing is kinda outta control and I am only capable of having the final word on my feelings towards the backwards injustice that has been put on display front and center for the world to see. That said. F—k these evil species of human critters at any capacity and may their final breaths we inhale.
The only thing "taking the 5th" implies is intelligence.
Ya know the 5th is the one so they can't coerce you to confession (with torture)? I think it's a good one.
