In reply to the discussion: House Oversight Committee Democrats say most Epstein files turned over by DOJ were already public [View all]azureblue

        Trump's modeling agency was part of Jeffrey's pipeline:
https://www.motherjones.com
In the late 20th century, John Casablancas (founder of Elite Model Management) built the original model: turn teenage girls into glamorized assets. Jean-Luc Brunel took it international, founding MC2 and receiving at least $1 million from Jeffrey Epstein to expand operations. Paolo Zampolli cornered the visa angle, using U.S. immigration loopholes to bring in young foreign models  often from Eastern Europe and South America  under false pretenses.
In 1999, Donald Trump launched Trump Model Management. His agency followed the exact same pattern: bring girls in on tourist or extraordinary talent visas, overcrowd them in overpriced apartments, charge them for every service, and send them to work illegally while racking up debt they could never repay. Former models from his agency say they were instructed to lie to customs and start working immediately upon arrival.
Trump purchased the Miss USA, Miss Teen USA, and Miss Universe pageants  contests where he would later admit to entering dressing rooms unannounced. Ill go backstage before a show and Im allowed to go in because Im the owner of the pageant, he told Howard Stern in a 2005 interview. You know, theyre standing there with no clothes and so I sort of get away with things like that.
So I think it goes like this:
Trump and Epstein were pedos, but it was Epstein's business. Trump gets a chance to buy the Miss Universe / Miss Teen franchise, and then open a modelling agency, so now he a has a fresh supply of victims. He uses Melania (since she was a call girl) and Maxwell to groom the girls, and get them work at Mar a Logo, where they will be in contact with pedos. Soften them up, in Trump Speak.
Virginia Giuffre's Deposition
Virginia states it was Maxwell who recruited her from Mar-a-largo in 2000 (possibly 1999). It was Maxwell who trained her. Virginia thought Maxwell was the leader. She states Epstein and Maxwell were glued at the hips, abused girls together, and Maxwell abused girls on a daily basis. She also states the plane logs are incomplete as the only cover one plane (Epstein I believe had three). Ghislaine had a helicopter given to her by Epstein that she used to fly people to the island.

Meanwhile, Epstein buys Little and "Big" St. James Islands, to set up his pedo playground:
The 66-year-old financier bought Little St. James Island off this US Caribbean territory more than two decades ago and began to transform it. "Everybody called it 'Pedophile Island,'" said Kevin Goodrich, who is from St. Thomas and operates boat charters. "It's our dark corner."
One former worker described a strict "keep to yourself and do your thing" atmosphere when Epstein was present, implying workers were discouraged from observing his activities closely. This individual also recounted seeing young women on the property and believed them to be over 18, though they acknowledged some uncertainty.
Another worker noted the secrecy surrounding a particular steel safe in Epstein's office, suggesting it contained sensitive materials beyond just money. This worker also revealed that employees were not permitted to enter certain rooms, including the offices, without authorization.
FINALLY
Trump and Epstein have a human trafficking / pedo ring, mixed with money laundering - this accounts for that 1.1 billion Trump was depositing to Epstein's accounts in 4725 Transfers.
THIS is why Trump is frantic to stop the investigation. Not only pedophilia, not only international and domestic human trafficking, but a money laundering scheme, no doubt, with Putin. Don't forget that Putin bailed Trump out by giving him money through a shady Deuschbank loan, when no US bank would loan him money.
AND
This is why Trump is frantic to silence Maxwell - being a partner of Epstein, she knows the whole story and no doubt has some "insurance" stashed so she won't suddenly commit "suicide".
