The partner of late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, completed a second day of questioning on Friday, where she shared information on about 100 different people with the Justice Department.

Maxwell, who was convicted of child sex trafficking in connection with the disgraced financier in 2021, met with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche for about three hours on Friday at a courthouse in Tallahassee, Florida.

She also sat down with Blanche to answer questions for about six hours on Thursday as the Justice Department tries to quell fallout over its handling of the Epstein files.

Could you explain 'Complaining from a high Niveau'?

I don't know what Niveua means, though I am guessing the phrase is roughly equivalent to 'Get off your high horse' or 'Check your privilege' or 'The view from the ivory tower'...

... which all roughly mean that a person has a fairly decent, wealthy and secure standard of living, and the stuggles of the poor either do not matter to them, or are literally not even conceivable to them, as they've never had to deal with those kinds of problems, and have no idea how difficult it is.

...

But uh yeah... America hates the poor, and whats worst is that they've trained most of the poor to hate themselves and other poors, for being poor.

It is so obviously stupid when you break out of that mindset, but, its very well trained into us, very hard for many to escape.

...

Regarding Jews/Israelis, I just wanna clarify a distinction there.

I have many Jewish relatives, here in the US.

They all despise what Israel, and Israeli Jews sre doing.

There are in fact more Jews in the US than there are Jews in Israel.

For a great many of them, the actions of the state of Israel do not speak for all Jews, and many US Jews denounce what they have been and are currently doing, many of them have been taking part in and even leading protests against the ongoing Palestinian Genocide.
