I just read this interesting quote. It pretty much sums up our 🦍 Police State's MO and 😇 happy talk horseshit:

Quote
Craven Moorehead

Thank god the FBI got to Epstein's Island first, at least we know they will have secured (destroyed) any evidence they may find, so that it can be used to expose everyone of the powerful elites (not) who partook in Epstein's pedo services. It's reassuring to know that such a historically trustworthy (corrupt) Law enforcement institution is going to ensure that all the pertinent evidence is going to be applied to ensure that "All are equal in the eyes of the law" and that justice will be served, no matter who the perpetrators are.(sarcasm)


https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-08-13/shrieking-heard-epsteins-jail-cell-morning-he-died

The dead (pun intended) give away that Barr is Bullshitting is his sentence structure. He uses the verb, "WAS" repeatedly before lying through his teeth about "continuing" to seek Epstein's co-criminals. It is absolutely breathtaking how skilled this Barr elite CIA SCUM is at crying crocodile tears and simultaneously sending the messsage, to ANYONE who is a criminal involved in the Eptstein Despicable Horrors, that they have nothing to fear.

The fix is definitely in. They may sacrifice Ghislaine Maxwell and a couple of low level operatives, and pay off some women. But Prince Andrew, Bill Clinton and trump can rest easy knowing that Bill Barr's best are on the case.

The reports will be that the search turned up "nothing substantial." Write it in ink.

Yep.

INTERVIEW TRANSCRIPT SNIPPET:

JEET HEER: Well, so Congress can, yeah—They could investigate the whole Acosta deal and bring that forward and have hearings on that. They can take charge of the investigation into the prison. They can take charge into the sort of larger—I mean, it almost feels like, it’s not 9/11, but it does seem to call for a kind of independent counselor investigation of that scale with somebody – people who are outside the normal bounds. I mean, the troubling thing about all of this is that Epstein had all these ties with very elite figures. This is a guy who was friends with two presidents, Bill Clinton and Donald Trump.


And just within 12 hours before he was found dead, there was a release of information about people he might have blackmailed, which included the governor of a state, a prominent diplomat, and a prince in England. So that’s very—So how do you investigate something that big? How do you investigate something that implicates so many people of both parties?

MARC STEINER: And then, on top of that, you talk about the kind of wealth and power, and all the wealth and power of people that we talked about who are a part of Wall Street, and part of that entire world that he was tied to. And the socialites who procured young girls, these children, to come and be his sexual toys. I mean, who knows how many other men were involved in that, or women, right?

Authored by Kit Knightly via Off-Guardian.org,

In two different opinion pieces The Guardian has made its position on the alleged death of Jeffrey Epstein clear – he “probably” committed suicide.

SNIPPETS:

The author also attempts to undermine the “conspiracy theories” by pointing out that Epstein was a potential threat to important figures on both sides of the political divide:

Online, conspiracy theories now abound. Observers suggest Epstein was killed by one of the men who may have been implicated in his crimes – maybe Bill Clinton, according to the fringe right, or maybe Donald Trump, according to the fringe left.

An argument rather akin to saying “he can’t possibly have been murdered, because there were too many people who wanted him dead. There are SO MANY plausible suspects, that the only reasonable explanation is that…none of them did it.”

(Also, note the word “fringe”, a manipulative use of language designed to discredit an idea without engaging with it rationally)

However, this article – although laced through with traditional mainstream rhetoric about “conspiracy theories” – at least leaves them room to exist.

The Guardian’s other Epstein piece is rather less understanding: ...

Declaring seeking the truth to be somehow unfair to the victims is a classic trope, deployed most famously against 9/11 Truthers, but common after many such incidents.

There’s also this sentence…

SNIPPET:

The reaction has been swift and furious. Outlets ranging from NPR to CNN to Fox News have claimed that Sanders’ comments are “Trump-like” and “echoing Trump”. CNN’s segment on the story insinuated multiple times that there is no evidence for Sanders’ claims 👍 of biased coverage by 😈 WaPo.

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2018/10/12/stephen-miller-used-eat-glue-his-third-grade-teacher-said-school-placed-her-leave/

    Quote
    [Nikki] Fiske, who has taught Franklin Elementary School in Santa Monica for 30 years, painted an unflattering portrait of Miller as a third-grader in an interview with the Hollywood Reporter. She said Miller was a messy kid who she was always trying to get to clean up his desk, “a strange dude” who would eat glue off of his arm.

    “I remember being concerned about him — not academically,” she said. “But he had such strange personal habits. He was a loner and isolated and off by himself all the time.”

    Just another garden variety sociopath.

    The picture painted by the evidence is not that of a direct Epstein tie to a single intelligence agency, but a of a web linking key members of the Mega Group, politicians, and officials in both the U.S. and Israel, and an organized-crime network with deep business and intelligence ties in both nations.

    Yep.

    There are too many of these sociopathic weeds in the garden.

    While it is true that all metaphors have analogy limitations, sociopaths give weeds a bad name. Weeds just do what they do; even if they take over the whole garden, they don't then proceed, in typical Nihilist fashion, to kill everything in the soil.
