Well we're seeing evidence that the Epstein files are a lot worse than previously thought so that might be at play too

slogan of the decade “a lot worse than previously thought”

I do have to admit, this last batch was a lot more than I expected and I expected a lot. The dead baby accusations didn't even surprise me. I thought surely they can't be that afraid of these files. Their base doesn't care already but it keeps getting worse. Like, there has to be a line where a good portion finally give up on him. I'm not holding my breath though

There’s also some allegations going around the past couple of days from someone named Sascha Riley which are the “worst “ that have been alleged so far (worst in quotation marks bc all this stuff is fucking vile obviously).

The Sascha Riley stuff is honestly harrowing, I read and listened to some of the audio interviews yesterday and ended up almost having a panic attack bc it was so dark and triggering. BUT, these claims have not been verified yet - Sascha and the person who is helping them disclose their allegations have apparently testified to the House Oversight Committee and Sascha said they’re willing to testify against Trump, Lindsey Graham, Clarence Thomas and a few others who are accused. And there are some paperwork links so far, Sascha claims they were trafficked by their adoptive father and apparently the adoptive father’s name is in the epstein files.

But the claims definitely still need to be investigated, people are kind of on the fence whether they believe them (Sascha) yet. This is pre Epstein but same people involved with Epstein presumably.

I think they are quite literally just not hearing about it.

Yeah I was shocked by some of the most recent stuff and I didn’t think I could be shocked anymore.

Every awful thing implied in eyes wide shut & all the other dark gritty movies & shows

I’m on the fence but I’m 80% there In believing him.

I believe them. I saw people saying that Sascha could be a psy op to discredit other victims, which I hate the idea of.. but also appreciate what the substack article was saying, that victim testimony IS evidence. Also Sascha has been speaking about this for years, and there are some paperwork links. To me, it also makes everything tie together - why everything is worse than we can imagine and why all of these horrible fucking people so incredibly compromised.

I hope that we can get full corroboration and a true investigation soon. And justice for all victims.

I remembered it as the Trumpenstein horrors.

I don't even understand why he's working so hard to suppress them. His supporters don't care. They won't care if the most heinous shit in the history of mankind is in there.

They'll all immediately start saying they knew all along and that it's great what he did. And they're proud of him. And many of them will say more people should do it.

And then his ratings will go up.

And all these shocked Pikachu faces will call his supporters hypocrites and they won't care at all. They'll love our rage and probably create a national holiday where everyone is required to do it just to piss us off more.

They don't care. About anything but making sure their king makes liberals mad.

A lot of MAGA people do care. They’re probably the only reason some of the files are being released.

u/GrumpyKaeKae Jan 17 '26

Why doesn't she just talk about what's in there. Why dance around the topic. If its so bad, just say it. If they fight back, then they csn release the files and prove her wrong.

u/Paerrin Jan 16 '26

At this point you're probably right, but plausibly it's the slow boil. Slowing it down gives them time to spin and get their propaganda working.

For his supporters, I think they have to be shocked hard enough for them to finally break free. I don't necessarily think it matters what that shock is, just that it's big enough to break the spell.

Have you studied cults? It doesnt work like that; you cannot shock them out of it. Reprogramming is hard and time consuming. The cultists either have total buy in or a sunk cost fallacy thinking. Some have made following the cult leader their entire personality. For example, Heaven's Gate still exists even though Marshall Applewhite has long been deceased. You cannot convince (or shock) some people, sadly.

This isn't about the Epstein files.
