The contrast is striking: In Europe, some people whose names come up in the Epstein files are facing consequences — but in the U.S., not so much.

European royals, government officials, politicians and others are losing jobs and titles over their connection to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. European law enforcement agencies are opening investigations based on recent troves of documents released by the U.S. government.

Prominent Americans with apparent ties to Jeffrey Epstein — including Trump and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick— have so far largely kept their positions of power.

    That’s because the US is a fascist regime now where the powerful protect each other

      Always has been.

      Europe only pretends to be moral but it’s very much subservient to America.

      It’s was evident by the fact that Russia was banned from Eurovison but Israel wasn’t even tho the ICC located in the Netherlands decided Israel was committing genocide.

      European countries sent troops to Greenland to defend it from RUSSIA when America threatened to annex Greenland.

      European countries like Germany have sent their gold reserves to America instead of keeping them with themselves.

      TLDR: Europe is America’s bitch. Stop pretending to be morally superior.
