There's not going to be any evidence left by the time someone else gets access to it.

What's the point of evidence? It's not like any court would ever upset the apple cart.

Apple cart? It's been nothing but maggots and flies for decades

Depending on how corrupt of a president you want to be, even if you aren't in there, you might use it to blackmail other powerful people.

I think it's extremely probable blackmail was the entire purpose of Epstein's entire operation. Whether he was a agent of some government or corporation. I think the intention was to gain a means of control over powerful people and to leverage their power and influence for whatever entity Epstein was employed.

Alexander Acosta straight-up admitted that Epstein was an intelligence asset and that he torpedoed the initial case in 2008 at the request of higher-ups.

Of course Acosta ended up as a member of Trump's cabinet, because we clearly needed yet another direct Epstein connection alongside Barr and Trump himself.

Maxwell has Mossad connections....I think she was in charge and Epstein was her useful idiot
