I don't know that there's any kind of "agreement," but in my non-special-insights opinion, I think your final theory is the closest to the truth.Markk wrote: ↑Thu Jul 10, 2025 2:55 am[...]
If Trump was on the list I find it hard to believe it was not leaked by the previous administration before the election. If high ranking Democrat's are on the list I find that equally difficult to believe that the current administration wouldn't leak it. Who knows maybe there is some sort of black agreement between the power brokers behind both parties....like big pharma and other super Pac's.

I think Trump/Republicans and Democrats realize that there's "mutual assured destruction" (MAD) behind Epstein. Between Trump, Bill Clinton, royal family members, justices, Republican and Democrat power brokers, lobbyists, CEOs, tech moguls, etc. all likely evidenced as taking part in the trafficking and exploitation of women and minors, revealing anyone would ultimately mean a domino effect of MAD.
That said, I don't think Trump and Republicans realize just how much the MAGA faithful would ultimately see him on the list as a complete non-issue. With Trump's self-admissions of being a sexual predator, adjudication finding that he told the truth when he bragged about assaulting women, his bragging about walking in on children getting dressed along with several of those children and their moms confirming that he was telling the truth about that vile voyeuristic child sexual predation, his sexualizing his own infant, and so on -- I'm not exactly sure what difference it would make to MAGA seeing him on Epstein's so-called "list." He was Epstein's friend, continued a secret friendship with Epstein (according to the Epstein tapes) while President, flew on Epstein's plane, etc. Hell, Epstein mused in the Epstein tapes while in prison about how devoid of ethics and morals Trump was. How disgusting do you suppose a person needs to be in order for Epstein to find them depraved? Yet the majority of "Christians" voted for him, and support him to this day. There is nothing he could be guilty of that will lose him the support of the majority of Republicans. They might say that being a frequent flier to pedophile island would be the last straw, but they're ultimately just saying that as a performative act to pretend like they still have ethics and morals (likely to a large extent, trying to convince themselves that they already haven't already completely sold their souls to an anti-Christ).
