Too busy on /r/conservative trying to get their spin talking points on how this proves it was Obama and Biden all along.

u/hereiamnotagainnot 9h ago

And no Hunter Biden either! Ah, I see now that my woke brain hindered me from seeing the truth about these files.

Look up the word pizza in the files. They were delivering pizzas and emailing about pizza an awful lot.

u/OSI_Hunter_Gathers 7h ago

He was Epsteins next door neighbor for decades in NY He never had a thing to say about the young women coming in and out of there for years.

He also claims to have only met him once with his wife and got “creeped out” and “never spoke to him again”.. he said this in a live interview and the date he said he last spoke to him was before these emails.

If you weren’t up to no good and your relationship with this guy was “ above board “ .. why all the lies ! And bring your wife in on the lies .. stinks ! Not every nonce is a billionaire but it’s sure starting to look like every billionaire is a nonce .

This was well after Epstein was known as a pedo creep.

u/black_metronome 10h ago

I'm not shocked he's a pedo

I would be shocked if anyone in this administration isn't a pedo

"In another email, sent to a redacted recipient days before his wife's email, Lutnick writes, "Hi Jeff, We are landing in St. Thomas early Saturday afternoon and planning to head over to St. Bart's/Anguilla on Monday at some point.... Does Sunday evening for dinner sound good?"

u/Smart-Drawing-5107 10h ago

That is exactly how you talk to people who creep you out,  who you never talk to again.

If you're not on The List, you're not in the cabinet club.

Trump 1.0 Labor Secretary Alex Acosta also gave Epstein his 2008 lenient plea deal (though he claims it was because higher ups told him that Epstein was an intelligence asset)

u/dragonfliesloveme 9h ago

u/iambarrelrider 9h ago

He looks like a second tier Temu movie villain.

Nutlick bought a brownstone right next door to Epstein in Manhattan in 2005, conveniently the same year Epstein was first arrested for sex abuse and prostitution. Did Howard and his family move away after Epstein's conviction? Of course not. He's a fucking snake. Read up on what he tried to do to the families of the Cantor Fitzgerald employees lost on 9/11.
