Behind this important reversal is a member of the Coast Guard who saw what was happening and had the courage to leak it to the press. That person deserves serious praise.

JPMorgan bank "waited until after Mr. Epstein’s arrest on sex trafficking charges... and subsequent death to file reports that described some $1.3 billion in transactions as suspicious."
Who paid Jeffrey Epstein a BILLION DOLLARS?
What, exactly, did they get in return?

Prediction: the real cover-up is that Jeffrey Epstein was running a successful kompromat op for Mossad.
When then-US Attorney Alex Acosta gave Epstein an easy plea deal in 2008, he said it was because Epstein “belongs to intelligence.” The question is, whose?

Just saw this today. This is a transparent attempt to KILL DUE PROCESS by lying about the job of immigration judge and stacking the deck through hiring only bloodthirsty lawyers who want to deport people.
This comes after they pushed out over 100 judges deemed too likely to grant relief.

Honestly this could already be the case; it’s hiring and on the job training procedures that are the issue.

They told his victims that once sins were “washed away in the blood of reconciliation,” they could never speak of them again.
