About time someone pointed out that Dimon is not the saint he’d like us to think he is.

I’m a former bank examiner. I’ve known the truth about Dimon for years. Back when all the banks were in trouble of their own making. I’m glad to see it being reported more publicly finally. It’s frustrating to see these guys getting away with their false innocence.

I am with you on this. We need documents and evidence to prove this and pursue justice. Please share any documentation of this. I also hate JPMorgan Chase as they ripped me off years ago and I will not do business with them. Put Bank of America in the same class.

I wish I still had the evidence but I’ve been retired for a decade now. However, I don’t recommend that anyone do business with any of the TBTF gang bc I believe the designation gives them free rein to take on more risk bc they know they’ll be bailed out. The rank and file were against this move but we were not in the driving seat on that one. BofA is definitely one to avoid. They no longer want to do consumer banking bc we’re too much work. I watched them abuse my 90 year old mother and that was my line in the sand. Unfortunately JPMC is another TBTF and perhaps the worst offender. The only consumer business they want is their credit card portfolio. And I’m about to cancel the one card I have from them. It would, of course be the Amazon credit card issuer. 🙄 Boycotting them too.

What keeps New York State from investigating and prosecuting? The laws are there.

If officers of a New York bank are involved in detaining or trafficking a minor, they can be liable under New York state law in addition to any federal charges.

Liability Under New York State Law

Kidnapping & Related Crimes, or facilitating any part of:

• New York Penal Law § 135.20–135.25 (Kidnapping):• Kidnapping in the second degree: abducting another person.

• Kidnapping in the first degree: abducting with intent to harm, hold for ransom, or restrain for more than 12 hours.

• Penalties are severe, especially when the victim is a minor.

• Unlawful Imprisonment (§ 135.05–135.10):• Even restraining a person without consent can trigger liability.

• Endangering the Welfare of a Child (§ 260.10):• Criminalizes knowingly acting in a way likely to injure a child’s physical, mental, or moral welfare.

I think he pointed that out himself when he claimed not to have heard of the name Jeffrey Epstein, prior to 2019. We know Dimon wasn’t a resident in a Monastery and he sure wasn’t living in cloud cuckoo land. But I guess he thinks everyone else is.

Just curious to know how many times Trump needs to voice his complete approval for their release and that as POTUS - he cannot override the judiciary as it pertains to the release of grand jury documents? And that it is federal judges who are blocking the release of the files? Trump isn’t a king, dictator, or tyrant, contrary to popular leftist mentality. There are protocols and parameters within which he must operate. The world isn't waiting on Trump. We're waiting on federal judges.

AaronKM's avatar

Well, by all means, you're more than welcome to spout your TDS-ridden misplaced opinions and defamations all you like - they have no value and are of no consequence. Doctored photos, photoshopped images, and democrat manufactured hearsay and rumors are insufficient in supporting your claims. Conversely, Trump has been exonerated byvthe FBI, every victim of J Epstein who testified against him as well as G Maxwell herself. Clearly, you have a very big uphill battle if you can on selling your lies - one that is insurmountable in my estimation.

Otherwise, who in their right mind would actually believe that the one man responsible for ALL of this information coming into the public arena of consciousness and knowledge; the one man who provided all the necessary information that resulted in the arrest of J Epstein, would have done any of this were he complicit in any of these crimes? Like he'd throw himself right up under the bus all out of the kindness of his heart. Gosh, what a great criminal. If only all criminals would be so selfless and considerate of the victims sbd for society.

You know whst? You're right. There is no free lunch. No one is going to get away with any of this. It's just not going to end the way that you're hoping it does which, as I've said before and Ill say it again - makes you a sick fuck, too, for hoping that sonehow Trump is found guilty of any of these crimes which would necessitate a minor child of having been sensually victimized and frankly, I think that's absolutely sick. All for politics, that anyone would hope to find one guilty of having victimized a child - none of you are right in the head. You too, ate a sick fuck.

Trump had to go through Congress to release the files. It’s a process.

Expand full comment
AaronKM's avatar

Grand jury documents released must be granted by a federal judge.

From the AI:

No, Congress cannot override federal judges to release grand jury documents, as federal judges are bound by the provisions of Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 6(e), which restricts the disclosure of grand jury materials. Recent court rulings have reinforced this limitation, indicating that judges cannot release such evidence solely based on public interest.

The great thing about Trump is that he can say anything and it gets it into all the newspapers, so better for this issue to be discussed by everyone who opposes him, by him acting like he has nothing to do with it. The more he does the more mainstream media write about it and it gets noticed. His supporters have known about his plight to get rid of this disgusting behaviour well before all of this has come out recently.

Logically would someone put an EO in place to seize personal property from those involved in trafficking, if he himself were involved. This form of blackmail ring upon elites and trafficking for its purpose goes hand in hand with drugs trafficking. He’s gone after them, stopping it all. If that’s delusional, then I’m happy to admit I’m delusional, for the right reason. Someone is at last standing up for his own people and protecting them!

No, he is the one who availed the world of all of this knowledge. Or, at least paved the way and declassified information that enabled us to become aware of all of this. No one complicit in any of these crimes is going to implicate themselves for all of this.

But, taking a different angle, just for shits & grins, let's say that Trump is somehow involved (which he absolutely is not as he has already been exonerated by the most important of all people who could exonerate him) - there could really only be one reason to throw himself, his life, his family, and his good nane down the shitter for all of this and that would be to end all of these crimes once and for all and see that mo obe else was ever subjected to such crines. There would certainly be much to be said about that. Perhaps a final act of nobility. Of course, ether way, what he's doing is indeed an act of complete nobility. He's just not complicit in these crines. That's just a fact!

Expand full comment
Ethan Faulkner's avatar

Joon, you're asking the single most important question.

The weapon isn't the article. The weapon is understanding the article.

That's why there's a section at the end called "THE POCKET RAZOR". It’s a cheat sheet. Your mission isn't to convince the world. It's to arm your friends.

***

Here's the protocol:

* Arm Yourself: Pick one single fact from that list that makes your blood boil. The $38 billion in prior fines. The "nymphettes" email. The fact they knowingly processed payments to a girl their own files noted was "purchased" at age 14. Master it. Own it.

* Arm Your Friends: Don't just drop a link. That's noise. Make it personal. Say, "Hey, I just learned JPMC knowingly processed payments to a 14-year-old victim. This isn't a conspiracy theory; it's from their own records. Read this."

You said sharing it with a few friends "won't do much good." You're wrong. A high-trust conversation with one friend is infinitely more powerful than screaming into the void. That's how this starts. Not with a mob, but with a handful of people who are done being lied to.

***

You're not building an audience. You're forging a phalanx. Welcome to the fight.

That hit hard “purchased a 14 year old!” A large cash deposit a day makes the guilt go away. What kind of human…That guy, any of them who even got near Epsteins accounts in that whole 15 + years, needs to go down! This disgusts me.

I’ve been following the Epstein story and it just keeps growing more tentacles in more directions. This Medusa is going every which way, getting tangled up.

It kind of sucks Epstein got out of this horror show so early. Maybe if he was alive…idk what…
