Conspiracy theories? Seriously?

There's been quite a lot of traffic here about conspiracy theories regarding Epstein, and it's getting to the point of serious nausea.

"Conspiracy" is a great word and certainly a conversation starter, but let's keep a simple fact in mind: some government agencies do make people disappear for various reasons. The U.S. Marshals Service, for instance, has the Witness Security Program, which provides safety for witnesses in some types of major criminal cases. That's not a conspiracy: it's a legal mandate and SOP for the agency.

So to poh-poh the idea that Epstein may have been spirited away by a government agency for whatever reason, and to call it a tin-hat conspiracy theory is baloney. It's a question that needs to be asked: did he really die?

If it turns out he really died, then, fine; it's settled. But so far all we have as proof is what we've been told.

Maybe we just need more people from Missouri: "Show me."

I'm not going to get into why he may have been spirited away: that's a whole other conversation and I'm not going to waste my time on speculation. I can go there IF we find out he didn't really die.

1. Oh, so he's not even actually dead?

 


He’s just hanging out with Elvis?

4. I know, right?

 


I mean, look at all the people who buy into the “official story” that he’s dead in the first place!

7. Not sure what you mean by that.

I'm not giving anyone the benefit of the doubt here. Anyone. If he was spirited away alive it could have been anyone for any reason, and I'm not going there: the FBI, the CIA, the NRA, or the Mickey Mouse Club. Hell, maybe the Masons; they get blamed for all kinds of stuff.

All I'm saying is that the question should be asked: did he really die?

14. I still don't get it.

I wouldn't believe anything Barr says. Don't know where you got that impression.

6. Who was that guy on the stretcher in the picture in the New York Post?

 

He looked an awful lot like Epstein. If it wasn't him or if it was him and he didn't really die, how did they manage to keep that from all the hospital personnel. Or were they all in on it too?

10. You should take some Pepto if you're nauseous.

I’m not sure what one would take to cure your belief in the Trump admins version of events. Pardon me, but after witnessing the last three years, I DO NOT.

13. Not sure what you mean there.

I do NOT believe anything in T's admin's version of anything. I detest that #$*&^#@. If they gave me the time of day, I'd check my watch anyway.
