RE: https://mstdn.social/@GottaLaff/116546193623564260

the quoted post attempts to make the case that the group of 4-10 russian women that made up epstein's inner circle were actually "red sparrow" spies sent to sexually co-opt epstein and seize control of his #blackmail operation.

speaking as someone who found these women mysterious enough to curate a page devoted to their most suspicious correspondence with Jeffrey Epstein (https://michelcrypt4d4mus.github.io/epstein_text_messages/for_category_girls.html) i don't agree with everything in the post but i do agree that the most likely explanation for the girls is that they were russiaan spies and it's only a short leap from "they were spies" to "they were spies and and they entrapped him with kompromat", especially considering that at least one of these women has been credibly accused of assaulting other girls with epstein. like physically as his accomplice, in the room.

consider the following:

1. a guy like epstein (rich, well connected, consumed by a compulsion to commit sex crimes) would be at the top of the to-do list of every intelligence agency in the world that still runs a sex spy program. the list of countries that are still weaponizing teenage girls in the 21st century is short but notably includes china, russia, and israel (google "#MariaButina" or "#EricSwalwell fanfan" for recent examples)

2. immediately after Epstein got out of jail a series of beautiful russian girls bearing at best improbable personal histories (olympic snowboarder, ballet dancer, professional gymnast, to name just a few) started to [somehow] make their way from parts of russia so deep in siberia that most americans have no idea they even exist (bashkiristan, anyone?) to Epstein's doorstep. moving to NYC is no mean feat for a middle class european teenager. now try doing it from rural bashkiristan (avg annual household income: $8,000) with no english language skills.

Salon.com | “Witch hunt”: Rep. Cherfilus-McCormick resigns amid ethics probe by Jelinda Montes

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

Rep. Sheila Cherfilus‑McCormick, a Democrat from Florida, resigned minutes before a House Ethics Committee was set to vote on a recommendation to expel her, a rare action with only five expulsions in history. The resignation came amid a two‑year investigation that found she had misused federal emergency funding, violated Federal Election Commission rules and the congressional Code of Ethics, and faced a criminal indictment for allegedly laundering up to $5 million of disaster aid through her 2021 campaign—a case she has pleaded not guilty to and will stand trial next year. Calling the probe a “witch hunt,” Cherfilus‑McCormick warned that proceeding with disciplinary action before due process threatened democratic principles. Her departure follows recent resignations of Rep. Eric Swalwell and Rep. Tony Gonzales, who also stepped down under pressure from separate misconduct allegations.

The New Republic | Democratic Congresswoman Resigns Just Before House Ethics Verdict by Hafiz Rashid

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

Democratic Representative Sheila Cherfilus‑McCormick of Florida announced her resignation from the House just hours before the House Ethics Committee was set to announce sanctions, after the panel found she had allegedly diverted $5 million in FEMA Covid‑relief funds to her campaign, purchased luxury items such as a diamond ring, committed 25 ethics violations and now faces 15 federal indictments. In a statement posted on X, she condemned the process as a “witch hunt,” claiming the committee denied her new attorney’s request for time to prepare a defense and that proceeding while a criminal indictment is pending tramples her due‑process rights and tarnishes her reputation. Her departure marks the third congressional resignation in a week—following Democrat Eric Swalwell’s exit amid sexual‑misconduct allegations and Republican Tony Gonzales’s resignation after explicit texts and a related suicide—and comes after she had sought a pardon from former President Trump at a 2022 White House Christmas party, while Republicans such as Nancy Mace and Greg Steube pushed for her expulsion.

Democratic Rep. Sheila Cherfilus‑McCormick of Florida resigned from Congress just before the House Ethics Committee was to decide whether to sanction her for alleged theft of nearly $5 million in FEMA disaster‑relief funds and other campaign‑finance misconduct.

Her resignation follows a week in which two other members of Congress also left office amid misconduct investigations.
