Elon Musk calls DOJ findings that there was no Epstein 'client list' the 'final straw'

Elon Musk has launched a fresh attack on the federal government, slamming the Department of Justices newly-released findings that the convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein had no client list as the final straw.
Musk posted a series of memes mocking the Trump administration over its handling of the Epstein case, and lashed out at the new DOJ/FBI memo, issued on Sunday night.
The two-page memo said there was no credible evidence that Epstein had a client list to blackmail prominent individuals. It also confirmed that he died by suicide in a New York City jail cell on August 10, 2019.
No further disclosure is appropriate or warranted, the memo read, adding that no more Epstein-related investigations will be launched into third parties.

We all know this is nothing more than a reality show episode but each of them have their own "adherents" and as long as you have the RW noise machine (like Bannon) taking sides, then not all of the "adherents" would will necessarily swing. We saw that with Nikki Haley and some of her followers.

(7,946 posts)Same place as trumps IRS forms, his grades, and anything else you want to know about him that he doesn't want known. It's in a guarded file 13 that no one can access on pain of death... actual death, not literal, I'm convinced. God, what did trump do that even HE thinks its so horrible no one should know about it? Or, maybe, it's what prenup did he invalidate by doing whatever it was he did?

"No further disclosure is appropriate or warranted, the memo read ....."
Did they say no evidence exists? Was he going to keep a list of clients and blackmail possibilities?

Not only did he likely have a list of clients, he had video tapes of them raping "his girls".
Of course he was blackmailing them. All of them. For investment money. To manage for them. So he could get rich from the commissions on it.
On the surface it was all perfectly legal ( except for the rape of minors ). I'm sure he paid his tax bill ( with some cleverness as all investment bankers take advantage of ). That is how he became "friends" with so many powerful people.

(4,538 posts)to trump because he's on that list and voting for the bbb was tfg's blackmail demand before Green retired. TFG doesn't do anything without demanding something in return. Now that Green voted for the bbb he's paid his blackmailer and can pursue further employment avenues without fear.
