The Trump-Epstein Files
We keep track of the release of the files, but also to explore what’s already available, and why – with enough exposure – this could bring the man down, and who knows even his regime or the empire.

Now we know why the government treated Microsoft so differently than any other monopoly.
These people sold out our digital future in the name of child rape. I suppose the group that had the most to lose from being exposed had to blackmail the world.
Child fucker cancels talk over his child fucking
If there's one silver lining in this sordid Epstein affair, it's that it reminds everybody that Bill Gates isn't a nice old billionaire philanthropist
If you're old enough, you remember him as a hateful rabid psychopathic CEO. He's still that man: the philanthropy is just a way for him to dodge taxes. He hasn't become better with age.
Bill Gate's relationship with Epstein rekindles the nausea this man elicits in everybody who knows what sort of man he truly is.
And philanthropy as a whole is purely a method of white-washing one's reputation. If the rich gave a shit they would simply pay their taxes.
If I was rich I'd rather donate to tax-deductible charities so none of it goes to bombs.
They don't though, they "donate" to their OWN charity which is then controlled by their children... Virtually none of that vast wealth actually goes to helping people.
It is simply a tax evasion technique for them.
Side note: this is also why many professional athletes have "charities", they learned from the billionaires.
Well, that's why I'm not rich.
His philanthropy is also problematic for more reasons than tax dodging:

He used it to improve his legacy.
Hey this scandal is a nice way to end it.
lumping in every person who’s done anything wrong into the same evil billionaire bucket muddies the waters and lessens the burden on the worse ones. as far as i know, Bill slept with some prostitutes, cheated on his wife and asked for some drugs. this is nowhere near the pedophilia, rape, murder and worse that the worst offenders did.
you can say philanthropy is just a tax strategy but this guy is deeply involved in the philanthropy and knowledgeable about it for a while now, and attempts to use it for the best. again, compare with someone like Les Wexner or Staley, this guy is worlds apart.
like we can be clear about what each individual person did. i don’t think Bill has actually done anything reprehensible.
So don't compare some people but compare others ... "epsteinhater" 🤔
Bill is this you

No it doesn't. Nobody who has good in them becomes a billionaire. Only psychopaths and ruthless people who are willing to make the lives of a whole lot of other human beings worse for their own benefit become billionaires.
There are good rich people to be sure. But the richer they are, the less likely they are to be good.
I'm too much of a Utilitarian to be able to overlook his philanthropy. His foundation has practically eliminated guinea worm. That alone has saved millions of lives.
But I'm not a god. Who am I to say whether all his philanthropy outshines his personal depravity? Maybe it doesn't, but if more billionaires used their money in a similar way, I think everything wouldn't be quite as shitty as they are.
You regret that you got caught. Fuck outta here.
Get fucked you loser nonce. Can't wait to drag you through the streets.
Growing up to see the media fawning over him and his "foundation" was annoying. Especially hearing how much of a jack ass CEO he was.
Now watching him fall is so fucking satisfying.
in a country where rape is totally a-ok? there must be another reason.
Are we talking about Gate's home country, which was also home to the most notorious child rapist and trafficker of our time, who was also close to the country's child rapist in chief? You know, the 'disgraced financier' whose collaborators have had to face no accountability whatsoever.
Because if we're going to talk about countries that are "a-ok with rape"...
we werent talking about countries, but you are free to express yourself
