The Epstein Class vs. Everyone Else

I’ve now watched every video of the members of Congress who had the chance to review the allegedly “unredacted” Epstein files last night. And almost every single one of them looked visibly shaken by what they saw. I especially want to shout out Congressman Khanna and Congressman Massie for continuing to push for the truth—alongside others from both parties.

The more I hear about the sheer horror of what the Trump administration is covering up—from Trump lying about his relationship with Epstein, to a nine-year-old victim in the files who may never see justice, to guys like Howard Lutnick (Trump’s Commerce Secretary) who’ve been lying for years about their connections, to the still-unknown co-conspirators—the more I feel this overwhelming swell of rage and grief.

There’s not even a word for how I felt this morning, dropping my kid off at school, just fuming. Fuming at how this country has failed to deliver justice for predators who abused children. And yeah, maybe I’ve said some of this before—but that’s because this shit is just that depressing.

Here’s the realization that’s been crystallizing for me: all these scandals we’re living through—this economic crisis crushing working people, Tulsi Gabbard’s weird election meddling play, Trump’s never-ending stream of corruption and pardons, and the Epstein saga—it’s all the same scandal. It’s the same story.

We are witnessing now the culmination of the past 50 years of the growing Uber wealthy class and their machinations within corporate and government institutions.
They make the rules because they bought the game. The money in politics has made it possibly unsalvagable in a country where money Trumps morality.

The 1% over the 99%

They take what they want and discard the rest.

We all pay.

But to do so to the youngest and most vulnerable. So sick. So Depraved.

They won't go down easily- They will turn the heat up.

We cannot fold. We must all look within, to find the courage to persevere.

Lots of the top elite class from across the globe are near being exposed as the worst type criminal imaginable, the stage is set for a major and serious global conflict already, some of them may now see that as their only chance to avoid accountability
