It’s Simple: Trump Is Responsible For The Death Of Jeffrey Epstein
And this has nothing to do with anything fishy or any potential funny business…
It has to do with the fact that at the time of his death, Epstein was being held on child sex abuse charges in a facility that’s part of the Federal Bureau of Prisons, which is a division of the Justice Department, which is run by Attorney General Bill Barr, who was hand-picked by and reports directly to Trump. And Trump is the Chief Executive.
So while we’re not at all implying Trump was directly responsible for Epstein’s death (we’ll leave that, or the debunking of that, or the spread of other scenarios, to conspiracy theorists), we’re just pointing out today that no one seems to be pointing out Trump is absolutely, ultimately responsible for the ball drop that led to Epstein’s death. It happened on Trump’s watch.
So when Attorney General Barr says he’s “appalled” by Epstein’s death, what he’s actually literally saying is he’s appalled by himself. When he speaks of “failure” on the part of prison officials, he’s really speaking of his own failure since he’s the nation’s top prison official. Because the Attorney General of the U.S. is directly responsible for the federal prison system, and Trump’s his boss. So, wait: is he “appalled” at the “failure”…
