Epstein's Bank Records Subpoenaed, World Shocked (Again)
Bloomberg dutifully reports that JPMorgan Chase and Deutsche Bank have been subpoenaed for Epstein's financial records. This isn't groundbreaking journalism; these banks already settled multi-million dollar lawsuits in 2023 for their role in facilitating Epstein's sex trafficking operation. JPMorgan paid $290 million to his victims, admitting its leaders maintained connections long after red flags
were screaming. Deutsche Bank forked over $75 million for similar failures. One might wonder what exactly Congress expects to 'discover' that wasn't already uncovered in those cases. This 'investigation' appears less about justice and more about performative outrage, giving the illusion of accountability while carefully avoiding any real disruption to the systemic power structures that shielded
Epstein for decades. How many times will we 'uncover' this same evidence before someone actually goes to jail who isn't a dead-man walking?
