We know that there are Europeans in the Trump/Epstein files, so why doesn’t Europol ask for every single file in full to check for possible violations and then prosecute the guilty?

Have they asked and got denied? Haven’t they asked? What’s going on? I’m not seeing anything in the news about any Epstein-related arrests.

    Because the files damn leaders political and industry on a global level. It’s not just American ones and Trump. Lots of money from lots of different pockets are shielding them. We have war and reflecting pools to talk about anyway, forget about that pesky global elite pedophile ring /s. Should it happen, yes, will it happen, no.

      The Israeli papers to give them their official title. they damn most of the most powerful and influential people in the world. Given that it’s easier for them to collude and say nothing, that’s what they’ll do.

      this, alot of people besides the rich ones, like UNIVERSITY professors, and beloved celebrities turned perverts. you can kinda estimate which ones are likely on the files, based on them turning to the RIGHT suddenly.

      The Agency has no executive powers, and its officials are not entitled to arrest suspects, conduct independent investigations, or act without prior approval from competent authorities in the member states.

      You weren’t exaggerating.

      Yes, but… I mean, they’re like the umbrella organization of all EU police, coordinating to combat serious crime, so why can’t they arrange to get all the files and then distribute them to member states police to do the actual arrests?

    Remember that scene in The Handmaid’s Tale where Fred and Serena are lured out of Gilead and then arrested? Why don’t we do that to Trump?

    currently 3 countries have it, russia, israel, and the us govt. THE dnc/GOP all have acces to it, but they wont unveil any more details, because it likely hurts thier POCKETS if the donor names are mentioned.
