Epstein

A good metaphor for the Jeffrey Epstein case is where there is smoke there’s fire but in a twisted sort of way. The smoke is the sex trafficking but the fire is espionage. The titillating part is always the sex but behind that, is the working arrangements between governments and criminals. This goes back to WW 2 where the FBI cooperated with the Mafia to uncover German spies. Agencies like the CIA, the British MI 5 and the Mossad are involved in illegal activities that they want to remain quiet. J Egar Hoover was the master at this. He kept secrets on people so that he could control their behavior. Just two years ago Senator Schumer said, “Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday of getting back at you”. Even US senators know their place.
