Stop gobbling Trump’s nuts and release the Epstein bank records, Scottie.

“Given the scale of Epstein’s sex trafficking operation, which victimized thousands of women and girls and reached around the globe, it is preposterous and unacceptable that only Epstein himself and Ghislaine Maxwell have faced prosecution. There is no doubt that the Trump administration’s ongoing coverup of the Epstein files is giving comfort to the pedophiles and accomplices who were a part of his sex trafficking ring,” Senator Wyden wrote. “The Treasury records shine a light on how high-profile individuals paid Epstein staggering sums of money, which was then used to move women around the world or engage in dubious transactions indicative of money laundering. They also show how U.S. financial institutions turned a blind eye to the financing of Epstein’s criminal network, simply waiving the payments through without properly reporting them to U.S. authorities in a timely fashion, as required by law. Financial institutions, attorneys and agents actively participated in Epstein’s illegal operations or were grossly negligent. They must all be held accountable
