    this was a CIA Mossad operation that got out of hand stupid and sloppy

    Pretty much the history of intelligence services in a nutshell.

    the rich pedophiles really REALLY started liking the setup

    I do kinda wonder what the final shoe to drop was. But my money is more on Epstein extorting more money/freedom than his handlers believed he was entitled to.

    The fact that Trump took over in 2017 and Epstein was arrested/murdered a few years later suggests - to me, at least - that he maybe called up his old friend and started making a few too many insistent demands. And it occurred to Trump (or someone in his immediate vicinity) that it would be easier to just arrest this guy and wack him than keep paying him off forever.

      Likely he pissed off multiple people by having dirt on them. People with infinitely more power than him, who will literally make a snuff film of you if you annoy them. So they got fed up with him, locked him up, had him murdered (on camera) and now they’re releasing some of the dirt in a way that serves their interests.
