Ted Lieu: "allegations of Donald Trump raping children ... of Donald Trump threatening to kill children. "

104. Are you this far into this discussion, saying mean things to me, NOT having looked into who said all that yet?

To reveal the mystery, that interview was with Bradley Edwards, in May 2025.

Are you familiar with that name?

A victims' rights lawyer from Florida, Edwards has been in pursuit of the truth about financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein's life and crimes for nearly two decades. He would be the first to say that Epstein caused incalculable damage and trauma to hundreds of women and girls.

In fact, long before Epstein became known worldwide for his crimes, Edwards presciently told a federal judge, "Because of [Epstein's] deviant appetite for young girls, combined with his extraordinary wealth and power, he may just be the most dangerous sexual predator in U.S. history."

That was 17 years ago. Back then, hardly anyone listened.

In the years since, Edwards and his co-counsel -- on behalf of Epstein's victims -- have sued Epstein, his estate, the federal government and several financial institutions, recovering hundreds of millions of dollars for more than 200 survivors of Epstein's sex abuse and trafficking. He knows the victims' stories as well as anyone and, in the course of all the litigation, he has reviewed an expansive amount of non-public documents and evidence related to the late Epstein, who died by suicide in prison in 2019 while awaiting trial for sex trafficking of minors.

So what is your theory with regards to why Bradley Edwards would go out of his way to downplay the whole 'pedo cabal' angle (as did 18 years of FBI analysis over 6 POTUS terms, 3 of them Democrats), while, to your thinking, *his own, long-time clients* are out "testifying" the exact opposite?

I'm suggesting they're actually NOT saying that, but if they did, I'd believe them. You said I've missed dozens of your posts that would prove otherwise, so, I invite you to show me I'm wrong, friend. I'm all ears

I'm not claiming I'm "so smart", I'm claiming I've paid very close attention. Neither evidence, nor victim testimony proving that Epstein was trafficking many minors to many men has ever materialized. Guiffre? I believe her accounts in Nobody's Girl. But she is the only who's said she was sent to his rich friends, and only claimed it about herself (almost every time, at least). And she clearly occupied a different place in their world than the other victims. I could explain why, but my hands are tired already.

Lastly I humbly ask that you PLEASE not insult me again if you've not read the two articles. You'll need to in order to understand at least why *I believe* I'm not talking out my ass here. I believe I'm accurately reporting what is known vs. what is not known, and there's no predetermined outcome involved.
