Sounds like this guy went to great lengths for sex stuff, so if I had to answer that question I would say: sex stuff.

Yeah, why is that hard to believe, D-40? And I mean, not just about the NYT.

because a cover up like that would be huge news to reporters within the organization that's trying to orchestrate the cover up? lol

It's not news if it happens all the time, though? Like, you don't think these stories gets buried all the time?
― Frederik B, Friday, 27 September 2019 11:17 (four years ago) link
i dont think that the nytimes is in the habit of burying stories bc of a random board member, no -- ill buy that like jeff bezos has the kind of power to squash or softpedal stories critical of amazon but the idea that reporters are just like *shrug* bc some dude they never heard of who doesnt work in the news room wants to kill a story is patently absurd

Welp here's one more guy with a death wish
This is BadVolf, the former Palm Besch County Sheriff’s Office deputy who I’ve spoken about before. He became an activist about police corruption in America and was calling out corruption around Epstein case from the beginning , he has the Epstein tapes. https://t.co/hhIfxnmBCv— detty (@0ddette) October 1, 2019

At Financial Trust, a company with fewer than a dozen employees, investment expenses varied widely, from $1.3 million in 2000 to $16 million in 2004 to $42 million in 2005. In 2006 — the year Mr. Epstein was charged in Florida — Financial Trust pushed $117 million into an unnamed subsidiary whose purpose was undisclosed. The subsidiary was apparently transferred to Southern Trust in 2013, and by the end of 2017 the subsidiary accounted for more than half of the company’s $391 million in assets. The filings also disclose that Southern Trust received a $30.5 million loan that same year, but don’t say who provided it.One thing the financial statements make clear: Mr. Epstein paid himself handsomely. He pocketed $400 million in dividends and other payments from the companies starting in 1999 — the first full year after he moved his operations to the Virgin Islands from New York.The opacity of Mr. Epstein’s financial dealings has been a perplexing issue since he was arrested in July on federal charges of sex trafficking with underage girls. Although the criminal case against him closed after he committed suicide in federal custody in August, Mr. Epstein’s finances remain an important matter for women who are suing his estate claiming they were among his victims.

Incredibly rich people are always looking for ways to grow their fortunes, and Epstein probably was investing a little and playing a shell game with the rest, right? Probably another case where someone could have thrown cash in an index fund and come out ahead, instead they’re behind or get a pittance so their buddy gets to jet around and buy islands

In the spirit of the title: Chrissy Teigen making a heartfelt complaint about being targeted by Qanon/Pizzagate nut jobs - and the first 100 comments being "MJ was innocent!" nut jobs, which I didn't realise was even a thing, let alone a thing fixated in John Legend.
u know what is not great? I still have to read on social media many times a day that John and I are pedophiles and look at photoshopped/miscaptioned photos of us on "Epstein Island" and I just have to deal with it because "people are crazy these days"— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) October 22, 2019
