"More and more leads, more and more information, and more and more commentary in the global press all relate to the suspicion that this unprecedented paedophilia scandal was co-organised by Russian intelligence services," [Poland Prime Minister Donald] Tusk said. "I don't need to tell you how serious the increasingly likely possibility that Russian intelligence services co-organised this operation is for the security of the Polish state. "This can only mean that they also possess compromising materials against many leaders still active today."

The most fascinating finds in the Epstein files so far are evidence of Epstein lobbying Thiel to meet his 'very good friend' and FSB handler Sergey Belyakov, and evidence of Epstein working with Thorbjrn Jagland and Putin to invent a new BRICS financial system to help Russia circumvent sanctions(?)[image or embed]

Poland's going to investigate Trump's intelligence ties with Russia, and Poland will find them.

How many of those Very Bad Things alleged about Trump will eventually prove to be entirely true?

90%? 95%?

A wise man would hold out for 98.8%

None. Again, if something were there, the Democrats would have already put it out there.

Other people though, that's different. I think there are alot of other people in those files that neither Trump or Biden wanted to get out there. There could be world damage if this gets out.

And it's not only Republicans. There are alot of progressive/Democrat rich and famous that love diddling kids.

Then why is Trump protecting them?

Why are YOU protecting them?

I want ALL of them to be exposed. Republican or Democrat. And especially people in power that Russia has compromising material on, so that they can be removed as a danger to the US, as pawns of Russia.

I see zero people suffering any consequences whatsoever

Better check England's ties,too.

England declared war on Germany over Poland, but didn't declare war on Russia's invasion of Poland.

Someone is unclear on who was fighting who in WWII.
That's impressively illiterate, even by your standards.

I thought you thought the Democrats were not only incompetent but had reasons to hide their tracks.
Now, if the Democrats can't get something done, there's no chance the Republicans can do better.
Hmmm.

Russia was an ally of England, not Poland.
England declared war on Germany, but not Poland.

Why did England declare war on Germany? Because Gernany invaded Poland.
Why did England declare war on Russia for invading Poland? It didn't.

After WWII, what happened to Poland? Did England liberate Poland?
Wasn't that the purpose?

England's agreement to Poland.
It promised mutual support if either nation was attacked by a "European power," and specifically guaranteed British support against a German invasion, accelerating Britain's entry into WWII.

The Poles are a competent people.

Moreover, Trump/Putin have placed their nation in jeopardy.

They obviously think there's dirt to be uncovered.

Anyone not a fascist know's they're right.

Why did England declare war on Germany?

Honoring their guarantee of Poland's borders,
Great Britain and France declared war on Germany
on September 3, 1939. Two days earlier, Germany
had invaded Poland.

After WWII, what happened to Poland? Did England liberate Poland?

The Soviets did not "invade" Poland. They liberated Poland.

After Germany's surrender, Soviet troops occupied most of eastern Europe, including Poland. As a consequence of decisions made by American President Franklin D.

Conflict with the Soviets (The Cold War) came later.

I would argue that this information, although of concern, is simply a diversion tactic to keep pressure away from where it truly belongs. That would be America's "greatest ally" Israel. Epstein's most extensive ties were between two countries: America and Israel.

I only see a couple of people here focusing on that. Everyone else seems exclusively focused on partisan bickering, which ultimately will solve nothing and just perpetuate the same extreme divisiveness that has been going on in America over the past 30 years. From my Muslim standpoint, it reminds me of Sunni vs. Shia. Left vs. right will infect the country for generations to come and result in continued inferior choices for executive leadership.

There goes any chance of the US supporting Poland in the event of a Russian invasion.

We're still working on Russiagate 1.0... and your team is losing.

If Biden had pushed the matter, you filthy cl0wns would have called it a political witch-hunt... ergo GFY Tinklebell with your fake@$$ rational neutrality schtick. Nobody buys it. Biden had bigger fish to fry without that additional millstone... besides it's more fun taking down a sittng preznit... You know like your team tried with when you dragged Monica Lewinsky through the mud to go after Bill... and divert from him going after bin Laden...(matter of public record)you scumbag.

Ironic when Trumpanzee debated Hillary he brought alobng all Bill's skanks... but Monica refused to join... matter of public record.

Donner,liar.

The Soviet Union invaded Poland on September 17, 1939, not 1938, as part of a secret pact with Nazi Germany. This action, following Germany's September 1 attack, resulted in the division of Poland and initiated a brutal two-year occupation, marking the "fourth partition" of the country.
Key Facts About the 1939 Invasion:
Context: The invasion was a direct result of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact (August 23, 1939), a non-aggression treaty between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union that divided Eastern Europe into spheres of influence.
The Attack: On September 17, 1939, the Red Army invaded eastern Poland without a formal declaration of war, claiming they were protecting Ukrainians and Byelorussians.
Outcome: Poland was divided between Germany and the USSR, with the Soviet Union occupying over 52% of Polish territory.
Repression: The invasion led to the imprisonment of over 250,000 Polish soldiers and the deportation of approximately 1.5 million Polish civilians, mostly to Siberia and Kazakhstan.
Atrocities: The occupation included the 1940 Katyn massacre, where the Soviet secret police (NKVD) executed over 20,000 Polish officers, scholars, and officials.

Loss of Freedom: Poland did not regain true independence after WWII, remaining under strict Soviet influence until the collapse of communism in 1989.

I've been right about Trump every step of the way.

Millions of us have been, so no special credit to me.

He is what he is, and that thing is highly understandable and predictable.

Therefore in 2018, for example, we all knew he's attempt a coup in 2024.

Therefore we all know that he'll attempt another one in 2026.

"The Soviets did not "invade" Poland. They liberated Poland."

Admittedly. Not worded well. Not enough coffee yet.

The Soviet's thought they were getting Poland as part of a deal with Germany.

But remember. Without the sacrifice of millions and millions of Soviet lives we could not have won the war when we did.

Also remember that the history of World War ll looks different depending on which country is telling it.

Not sure why you are trying to rehash War history but those were different times and we should not be trying to go to emulate them or go back to them.

We should be leaning from those mistakes. Not trying to make them again.
