It's amazing that anyone is able to be blackmailed in this day and age, given that absolutely no one gives a fuck how many scandals you are implicated in. I firmly believe that if every single name leaked tomorrow, with detailed accounts that we are able to verify, absolutely nothing would change. If I have learned anything in the last decade, it is that the most powerful people would probably increase in popularity if they were accused.

Child sex abuse is one of the few things that can still take a powerful person down. No one cares about bribes and extramarital affairs, those have been normalized.

Not if they can just deny it and have enough pull to avoid prosecution. At the very least, institutions will wait until these people are dead or close to death before going after them.

The point isnt releasing the blackmail info. The point is having the person under your thumb.

Yeah I honestly wonder why they even bothered killing Epstein. Trump could fuck a kid on stage at a rally and lose 0 support.
