The FBI has managed, with suspiciously convenient precision, to definitively close any serious discussion of a possible involvement of US President Donald Trump in Jeffrey Epstein's sordid network, say the New York Times, CNN, ABC News, CBS News, NBC News and Zerohedge. After years of investigations that began with promises of explosive revelations and ended with a report that reduces everything to nothing, it seems clear that the real goal of the investigation was not to bring the truth to light, but to bury it forever. Despite the initial evidence, tens of thousands of videos, lists of famous names, the FBI closed the case with a conclusion devoid of any trace of credibility: there was no client list, no blackmail attempt, and Epstein committed suicide in a cell where, coincidentally, the cameras were not working and the guards were sleeping.
Asked two days ago by journalists about Epstein's alleged collaboration with the American secret services - given that the case was buried by the FBI - President Donald Trump chose to respond ironically: "Are we still talking about Epstein?!” A reaction that is not surprising, if the goal is to minimize, ridicule and quickly move on to another subject. When the question hits a nerve, irony and denial are more useful than the answer.
US Attorney General Pam Bondi quickly intervened in Trump's defense and stated that the Epstein file is on her desk next to the file on the assassination of John F. Kennedy, noting that the tens of thousands of videos, which have been repeatedly talked about, only contained child pornography, without any element that would implicate other people.
Under these circumstances, the media overseas - New York Times, CNN - naturally ask whether the recordings of abused children in the Epstein case were produced in vain, without aggressors, who appears in them and why no one else was indicted in this case, apart from Epstein and his accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell?
What initially seemed to be a major investigation, capable of shaking up the global elite, has turned into an exercise in judicial cosmetic surgery, claim American journalists from Zerohedge. Although Pam Bondi previously admitted that she holds thousands of undisclosed documents, that there is a list of clients that "will make us sick", that there are at least 250 victims, and in another statement, she said that the FBI has tens of thousands of videos under analysis, all of this has suddenly disappeared from the official landscape.
Instead of the promised truth, the American people received a dry conclusion, communicated in a memo strategically released last Sunday, the weekend that celebrated the US National Day (Independence Day).
Everything seems orchestrated like a play, in which although the audience expects the truth at the end of the play, they hear the following line instead: "It's just a show, people.” Only this time, the "show” involves abused children, political influence and the protection of the most powerful individuals in the world.
In a normal world, the discovery of tens of thousands of pedophile materials and testimonies about flights with celebrities to Epstein's island would have led to a whole series of investigations, arrests and convictions. In reality, the only two people accused were Epstein and his accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell. No other name, no other face, no other formalized suspicion. More than just a scandal in the United Kingdom, related to Prince Andrew. Everyone else, untouched, as if they didn't exist.
Now the FBI is asking the American public to accept, without any objection, the fact that the entire network is reduced to a single dead man in a cell, on a night full of inexplicable "coincidences”: cameras not working, guards sleeping, missing recordings. The FBI states that the lack of evidence means the lack of facts, although the entire public opinion has the increasingly clear impression that the truth is not missing, but is being deliberately hidden.
Under these conditions, it is difficult to trust a system that asks you to close your eyes and accept only the official version. The Epstein case has become a stress test for American justice, and the result is clear: the system has collapsed under the weight of its own interests.
In the end, the victims will not get justice, and the names of the powerful, whether they were accomplices or beneficiaries of the abuses, will remain clean before the law. In another era, we might have said that the truth would come out. But now, the truth has been replaced by a cold, calculated press release. An ending that says it all.
