Epstein Guest List: Mainstream Media's Missing Persons Report
The supposed 'full list' of names, including redacted contact books and flight logs, has been bandied about. Yet, it largely recycles already-public information, avoiding the deep dive into why these powerful figures were so extensively connected to a convicted sex trafficker. The media applauds the 'release' while conspicuously omitting deeper analysis of who benefited from the continued opacity,
or who specifically moved to suppress these details for years. One might wonder if the same vigor applied to uncovering Epstein's network should be redirected towards tracking political influence, say, the $4 million AIPAC donors poured into Congress in 2023 ( OpenSecrets.org ). The focus on 'Epstein files' becomes a convenient distraction from other, equally disturbing forms of elite impunity.
How many powerful individuals will effectively receive a free pass, again, under the guise of transparency?
