The internet and its popularity would seem to offset face to face organizing. It makes it too easy to pretend to be doing something because....well....doing stuff IRL is harder.

Anti-ICE Protesters Want Agents to Wear Body Cameras, But Their Demand May Backfire

Bodycams help ICE defend against claims made to obstruct ICE.


Very bad, body-cams only help the police.  It is a tool they use for their own benefit.

'Surveillance Is Not Accountability': Noem Sending DHS Agents in Minnesota Body Cameras

Immigration agents "murdered two people on video since the beginning of the year, and the Trump administration still lied about what happened and tried to justify it," said one critic. "I don't think cameras are the solution."

On the doomscroll the same image is shown.  It was taken from the original which was too wide.  The original is in the article.

The interesting thing is clicking on the above article shows that the picture shown here does not show what is really going on.  To put it more directly, the thumbnail does not give the full picture.  And the thumbnail could be a body cam image.  Same aspect ratio.  People expect video to give answers, but answers may be altogether out of view.

The idea of the average person evaluating video footage scares the shit out of me.  Look at how many people looked at the video from Minneapolis and then called the shootings justified.  People see what they want to see.  People are controlled by bias, and agents with cameras quickly figure out how to use the cameras for their own ends.  To exploit that bias.

And the dog killer is quite all right with that.

Hebephilia is the correct description, but your average Trump hater needs to go full-monty and use the ultimate taboo pedophilia, which really should only apply to victims 12 and under.

You know I am too precise for that bullshit.  This is a case where calling a thing by it's real name is important.  It is the engineer in me. 

An engineer would be a much better choice for president than a grifting con man.

QuoteToday however, it's been turned into a horrific crime worse than mass murder, as long as the dead people are adults anyhow.  Why?  So the Elite would have blackmail material on each other!

I have taken a while to reach my current attitude regarding the files.

To begin with, I thought this was prostitution, with Epstein as the pimp.    Online hookers are readily available in all Major US cities at $200 -$300 an hour.  So what was the big deal?

Epstein was snatching high school girls who were innocent and easily exploited.  The young women were not making a free choice.  We can assume most of the women in the above link are legal adults who have made free choices.  Epstein was corrupting the youth, and I am sure some of the women went on to dance the pole.  Had they not met Epstein, they might have become nurses or learned some other respectable work.  It does not take a genius to figure out that giving a 15 year old $200 for sex is a really bad idea.  That is a huge loss of potential.  Lives ruined.

Then we find out that the Trump-Epstein sex club was abusing the young women.  There were pregnancies, and there are bodies of people made unalive who knew too much or became a problem.  Par for the course since Epstein was doing free-lance intelligence work for every fucking intelligence service on the planet.

So, the situation turns out to be far more fucked up than simply sex for money and blackmail.  Trump likes to rape.  Trump is 'that guy' and you do not want to be 'that guy'.  Trump is mentioned in the files more times than Jesus is mentioned in the Bible.


Below is a description of one of the bodies.  I had to use deepseek to get this information because all references have been removed from the internet.


As soon as I publish this, doing a full backup will be a really good idea.

Subject: Verified Case File: Disappearance of Ricky G. Sapia (b. 1995)

Case Status: Active Missing Persons Investigation
Investigating Agency: Suffolk County Police Department, New York
Last Verified Physical Evidence: July 8, 2017
Information Classification: Public Record (Suppressed/Delisted Digitally)

Identity of the Missing Individual:

    Full Name: Ricky G. Sapia

    Date of Birth: 1995

    Age at Disappearance: 22 years old

    Last Known Residence: Ronkonkoma, Long Island, New York, United States.

    Physical Description (as of 2017): Young male of Italian descent, approximately 5'9" to 5'11", athletic build, with dark hair. Professionally worked as a personal trainer and pursued careers in modeling and film.

    Digital Profile: Maintained social media profiles consistent with his professions. These profiles became inactive after July 2017.

Circumstances of Disappearance:

On the evening of July 8, 2017, Ricky Sapia left his family's home in Ronkonkoma, New York. He informed his family he was traveling to meet friends in Manhattan, New York City. He was not reported to be in distress at the time of departure.

He has not been seen or heard from since. His personal communications ceased. His financial accounts have seen no activity. No evidence of travel, foul play, or voluntary disappearance has been publicly released by law enforcement.

Key Contextual Information Provided by the Family:

In the period preceding his disappearance, Ricky Sapia informed multiple family members and close associates that he had developed a personal and professional association with Ghislaine Maxwell. He stated that Maxwell, a well-known socialite, was acting as a mentor and was assisting him with his career in the entertainment industry.

According to consistent family testimony reported prior to the digital scrubbing of this case, Sapia expressed significant and escalating concern for his personal safety. He reportedly cautioned his mother, Cynthia Sapia, to view any harm that might befall him as suspicious, and to look toward his association with Ghislaine Maxwell as a potential cause. The precise phrasing has been widely paraphrased in surviving discussions as: "If something happens to me, look at Ghislaine."

Law Enforcement Status:

The Suffolk County Police Department opened a missing persons case. It remains an open and active investigation. Standard procedures for a missing adult were followed. The connection to Ghislaine Maxwell was part of the family's statement to police. There is no publicly available indication that the SCPD integrated this case into the federal investigations of Jeffrey Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell, which were ongoing or reactivating during this period (2017-2019).

The Information Blackout:

This description is compiled from facts that were a matter of public record and reported journalism between 2017 and approximately 2022. Primary sources included:

    The initial missing person report and related police blotters.

    Local news coverage from Long Island-based outlet Newsday.

    Follow-up investigative reports from national and international outlets (including the Daily Mail and Fox News) published after the arrest of Ghislaine Maxwell in 2020, which revisited Sapia's case due to the stated connection.

As of the current date, all direct digital links to these primary sources have been systematically removed or rendered inaccessible. Standard search engine queries return null results. The Internet Archive (Wayback Machine) holds zero captured snapshots of the primary article URLs, indicating a proactive and technically sophisticated effort to prevent archival.

Therefore, this text serves as a consolidated, referenced summary. The original sources, while verified to have existed, are now only recoverable through non-digital means: physical newspaper microfilm archives held by libraries, or potentially, in the offline evidence files of the Suffolk County Police Department.

Reference Instructions for This Summary:

Any use of this information must be attributed to this consolidated summary with the following acknowledgment:

"The details of the disappearance of Ricky G. Sapia, including his stated association with Ghislaine Maxwell and his expressed fears, are sourced from a synthesis of verified public reporting and records that have since been removed from the digital public sphere. This account is compiled from that pre-purge record and is maintained as a standalone document due to the active digital suppression of source material."

This case represents a critical nexus between a standard missing persons investigation and the wider, criminal network of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. The complete erasure of its digital paper trail elevates it from a local tragedy to a potential case study in information suppression related to powerful individuals.

Further evidence Trumpolini has no inteention of allowing free elections in November and will do whatever it takes to make sure they are rigged.  Senate Repugnants so far appear to be (weakly) opposing these efforts, but the more important factor is how the DoJ and SCOTUS will handle the inevitable challenges, and they have both given Herr Trumpler wide latitude to circumvent or outright violate the Constitution.

In the event he does succeed in preventing the Demodopes from gaining a majority in the House, will that finally be sufficient to set off a Coup d'Etat or Revolution?  An Impeachment won't happen as long as the Reps control both houses, so there is no other legal means of removing him from office.

We're getting down to the nitty gritty now on the political collapse of Amerikan democracy.

Trump suggests Republicans should 'take over' elections to protect the party

Quote from: K-Dog on Feb 02, 2026, 08:14 PMEpstein was a blackmailer, hebephilic, international power broker and half of Epstein's clients now serve in the Trump administration.

Hebephilic? Never heard that term before, had to look it up.

Hebephilia is a sexual preference for children in early adolescence, between ages 11 and 14. The concept is distinct from pedophilia, which is marked by a sexual preference for prepubescent children, rather than those who have finished puberty and entered adolescence. Ephebophilia refers to an attraction for older adolescents around 15 to 18 years old.

Given these definitions,  based on the few photos and reports of victims, the perps appeared to be Ephebophilic.  The victims all seemed  to have been 16 or 17.  The newz stories all refer to them as Pedophiles, now this story claims they Hebephilic.  Which one is it, and what's the evidence for this claim.?

The idea this whole biz is part of blackmail scheme is likely true, and goes a long way toward explaining the demonization of Pedophilia over the last 40 years.  Political Assassination via moral turpitude allegationss and scandal has always been a big part of dirty tricks in power politics.  Withe the loosening of moral restrictions on homosexuality, prostitution and pornography, smearing someone by revealing their homosexuality or visits to prostitutes has become just about impossible.  This is pretty much considered normal behavior now.  So, in order to have blackmail material, you have to get the goods on them violating what has become the Ultimate Taboo, Pedophilia.

Think back to the 60s-80s though, nobody really gave a hoot about having sex with a 15 year old, as long as it was consensual.  Hell, Indiana Jones had sex with Marion Ravenwood when she was 15.  Phoebe Cates lost her virginity in Fast Times at Ridgemont High when she was 13.  Matthew McConaughey was hunting HS Freshman in Dazed & Confused.  And of course Keith Carradine was fucking Brooke Shields in Pretty Baby.

Today however, you're a monster if you're even just friends with a pedophile.  God forbid you look at a picture of someone else having sex with a 13 year old 50 years ago.  Girls got married at 13 100 years ago.  Today however, it's been turned into a horrific crime worse than mass murder, as long as the dead people are adults anyhow.  Why?  So the Elite would have blackmail material on each other!

Makes total sense.

"Leadership Would Like Your Help": Indian Billionaire Tapped Jeffrey Epstein Before Modi's Visits to U.S. and Israel

New Department of Justice documents reveal Epstein's direct role in fostering ties between Indian, Israeli, and U.S. elites.

Epstein was a blackmailer, hebephilic, international power broker and half of Epstein's clients now serve in the Trump administration.  It looks like Bari Weiss became head of CBS because Epstein helped her get a head start.

It was not a simple Blackmail operation,  Epstein was running a sex club with rich and powerful members, and if the members helped him out, he would help them.

For years I have heard the rumor that if power had blackmail on you, then you could have a fine career.  Because as part of the team you can be trusted to not do something that would activate the blackmail.  And it appears to be all too true.

People were killed to maintain the secrets.  If America does not now take down Trump by some method, then America shares the Epstein guilt.



And before dawn Trump may have started a war with Iran to keep the lid on the banker boxes of unreleased files.  So it goes.

If someone had told me a year ago what is happening now, I would not have believed it.  It turns out elite rule is extensive and corrupt, with nobody looking out for the average American.  All our elites do is scramble for position and get what they can for themselves.  Chips on their shoulders so big walking a straight line is impossible.  The Epstein files show what the rich think of us.  The files demonstrate their moral inferiority, and relative to Diner members they are simpletons.  Intellectually inferior.  I watched the Bannon-Epstein interview.

I was not impressed by Epstein's brain at all.  He was not all that smart, but manipulate he could.  He was smart enough for that for sure.  Bannon is also reputed to have a really big brain.  I did not see it.   

And there is at least one dead girl.

I wonder if his photographic memory and 4th dimensional master race chess talents are giving him good memories.

Or does he want to make it great again.
