I have no doubt that Epstein was a Russian spy or agent of some kind. That he was able to get away with what he did for so long meant that he had to have had state-level oversight and assistance. And his seeking out politicians, industry leaders, wealthy elites. He was a one-man honeypot operation.
Epstein was probably a Russian spy, says Tusk
Jeffrey Epstein was likely to have been a Russian spy, the Polish prime minister has said.

FACT:

Soviet citizen/agent Ayn Rand was one of the only notable people in Hollywood who was never called before the McCarthy Commission. Why? She was protected by the guild president, Ronald Reagan. A man she would later denounce, along with the moral majority, religionists and anti-choicers.
