31. Somebody here is trying hard to discredit this

Jan 31

evidence provided by the DOJ which is part of the court records. Why would that be? Somebody here... doesn't want you to believe what your eyes see, your ears hear or what your mind has concluded is probably true. Once again, why would that be? Senator Gallego has made a very valid point and it is timely considering the recent release of Epstein files. This somebody thinks there must not be a child victim, now adult, that was threatened because that child went into hiding and the lawyer representing her didn't follow through with a civil suit. Because, of course, this lawyer must have made it all up at the risk of losing her license. I'm no fan of Lisa Bloom due to her involvement on behalf of Weinstein, so I have no compunction to defend her but the victim she represented absolutely deserves to be heard and believed. Otherwise, they win. And I'm not talking about politics.

I think somebody is exposing their true agenda, IMHO.

This is a from a party planner that worked for Epstein in regard to the Katie Johnson filing chowder66 Jan 31 #9

Katie likely withdrew her lawsuit due to threats by Trump/Epstein that if she ever told, she & her family would die. red dog 1 Jan 31 #14

Or the lawsuit was withdrawn because it was BS from the start. Wiz Imp Jan 31 #24

"Or the lawsuit was withdrawn because it was BS from the start. Both are equally likely."?? red dog 1 Feb 1 #60
