Epstein: Why the cover-up will continue

From the Daily Beast:

But in February of this year, a federal judge ruled the non-prosecution agreement (NPA), which was concealed from the victims and their counsel, violated the law, specifically the Crime Victims’ Rights Act. Now the feds are contacting victims to discuss possible remedies.

During these meetings, the government is reportedly asking one question in particular: Did Epstein’s abuse ever cross state lines?

In other words, the government is asking: Should this case be tried at the federal level?

Obviously, it should. I've studied the flight logs of Epstein's jets (he had two), which clearly show that the underaged Virginia Roberts and other girls accompanied him on various flights. Roberts went to both Epstein's New York palace and to his private island.

It must never be forgotten that Roberts, then 15, was recruited at Mar-A-Lago by Ghislaine Maxwell, who seems to have had some position of authority there.

(Despite what you've read elsewhere, there is no evidence that Roberts -- or any other Epstein girl -- ever shared a flight with Bill Clinton or that Clinton ever went to Epstein's island. Epstein gave Clinton a lift to various international conferences, and all of those trips were covered by journalists. You may also have run into a particularly bizarre claim that Stephen Hawking, of all people, attended Epstein's orgies. That absurd assertion traces back to a 2006 article which appears to have been just an exercise in dark humor -- albeit one in extremely poor taste.)

The evidence is clear that Epstein was involved not just in moving girls across state lines but in international trafficking. See here:

The private Caribbean island, called Little St James, allegedly became the scene of riotous orgies involving under-aged girls flown in from eastern Europe.

And here:

Which included, for the record: buying a 14-year-old Yugloslavian named Natalia Marcinkova from her parents in order to keep Marcinkova as his “sex slave”; paying a retinue of women to trawl Palm Beach for teenagers economically desperate enough to agree to give Epstein “massages” that often led to sexual contact; receiving two 12-year-old French girls as a “birthday present”; and befriending Michael Wolff.

(Wolff's in the news again, isn't he? We will talk about his latest soon.)

The same source quotes the Daily Beast:

Perhaps most disturbing, in terms of possible sex trafficking, was Epstein’s relationship with Jean Luc Brunel, owner of the MC2 modeling agency. According to a complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, an alleged victim said that Epstein, [assistant and girlfriend Ghislaine] Maxwell, Brunel, [house manager Alfredo] Rodriguez, and Marcinkova ‘deliberately engaged in a pattern of racketeering that involved luring minor children through MC2, mostly girls under the age of 17, to engage in sexual play for money.’

Finally, I draw your attention to this important piece by Vicki Ward:

Epstein is known about town as a man who loves women—lots of them, mostly young. Model types have been heard saying they are full of gratitude to Epstein for flying them around, and he is a familiar face to many of the Victoria’s Secret girls. One young woman recalls being summoned by Ghislaine Maxwell to a concert at Epstein’s town house, where the women seemed to outnumber the men by far. “These were not women you’d see at Upper East Side dinners,” the woman recalls. “Many seemed foreign and dressed a little bizarrely.” This same guest also attended a cocktail party thrown by Maxwell that Prince Andrew attended, which was filled, she says, with young Russian models. “Some of the guests were horrified,” the woman says.

As I've noted on more than one occasion, when it comes to the trafficking of underaged women from eastern Europe, the name of one crime lord stands out: Semion Mogelivich. He controls that racket -- or perhaps I should say "controlled" in the past tense, since he's getting on in years. He's pretty much untouchable. And he can be connected to Trump through various associates, primarily Felix Sater. This story from 2004 is worth citing:

According to Friedman, "Mogilevich's lieutenants are trained in intelligence operations and countersurveillance, and provide warnings of impending police actions...." They are experts at compromising Western security services, especially by making secret agreements to provide information on rival crime groups. Mogilevich's organization blends East Bloc intelligence professionalism with arms smuggling, money laundering, extortion, prostitution, drug trafficking and murder. Meanwhile, Mogilevich's "former" East bloc intelligence professionals are teaching al Qaeda how to set up safe houses and smuggle weapons.

Lots of people on the right and the left love to talk about Epstein's fixation on underaged girls, but far fewer people are curious about an even more important matter: How did he make his money?

That question has baffled Epstein-watchers for many years. We are told that he is some sort of "money manager" who works solely with billionaires, none of whom are named. I am not the only one to speculate that Epstein launders money for eastern European mobsters and oligarchs, and that he may have used their ill-gotten gains to back his own investments. Frankly, no other theory makes sense.

Several sources claim that Mogelivich uses "his" girls to entrap VIPs around the world. (It's easy to imagine a situation in which a girl's age is not revealed to the target until the morning after.) According to Virginia Roberts, Epstein also uses "his" girls to obtain blackmail material on important people. 

And that's why I doubt that the Florida authorities will be allowed to expand the Epstein inquiry to the federal level. Trump will put a stop to it. He has no choice.

I've quoted these tweets from John Schindler in a previous post:

You need to understand real estate finance, and Russian organized crime AND Russian intelligence...if you do, the picture is quite clear. Mogilevich is the biggest mob boss in Russia -- maybe the world -- and his capos+footprints are all over the Trump Org since early 1990s.

Mogilevich launders money in the West, including the USA, on a gargantuan scale; he is clever and good at this. FBI knows all about it.

In 1992, Mogilevich sent a capo to NYC to run his US show. That was Yaponchik AKA Vyacheslav Ivankov, who was murdered in Moscow in 2009. Yaponchik/Ivankov -- for 3 years until the FBI caught up with him -- was dividing his time between Trump Tower & Don's Taj Mahal Casino. There are literally dozens of Russian OC scams, some gargantuan, that we know were based at Trump properties -- quite a coincidence.

The real issue is how Mogilevich made the Trump Org one of his overseas subsidiaries, de facto, back in the 1990s. FBI knows this too.

Also, Mogilevich has a very cozy relationship with Putin & his special services, going back to KGB days. They help each other non-stop. Not long after Sasha Litvinenko told reporters about Putin's close links to Mogilevich, FSB gave him atomic tea. Another coincidence. There's an old IC joke about Russian organized crime: "Who do you think organized them?"

Trump being in bed with ROC = in bed with FSB

We are in very deep waters here. Again: Trump cannot possibly allow any of this to come to light. If Epstein is cornered on a federal charge, he may talk.
