Hilarious: Clinton Presidential Library Has To Remove Tweet Asking Who Bill Emailed

The Clinton Presidential Library has been forced to delete a tweet that showed Bill Clinton sending his first ever email in 1998 with the question ‘Can you guess who it was to?’

The tweet was sent out to commemorate World Typing Day, with the Library account foolishly tagging @BillClinton in the post.

It was only a matter of minutes before the tweet was inundated with replies of ‘Jeffrey Epstein’ and all manner of references to the latest allegations involving Clinton that have emerged from interviews of victims of the elite financier pedophile.

In the latest tranche of documents, it was revealed that Epstein victim Sarah Ransome alleges that Clinton henchmen were sent to intimidate her and her friend after she went to the police in 2008 to report she was forced to have sex with Bill Clinton on video.

Donald Trump named in latest Epstein documents: Sarah Ransome said he had sex with ‘many girls’ in email where she also claimed pedophile had tapes of the ex-president, Richard Branson, Prince Andrew, Bill Clinton

Donald Trump is accused of having sex with multiple Epstein victims in the latest tranche of bombshell documents to have been released by the court. 

In the latest dump of papers are emails sent by Epstein victim Sarah Ransome to DailyMail.com columnist Maureen Callahan in 2016. At the time, Callahan worked for The New York Post and was reporting on Epstein. 

Ransome claimed in those emails that Trump had sex with ‘many girls’, including a friend of hers who is not named, who she says also slept with Bill Clinton and Virgin billionaire Richard Branson. 

It is claimed that Epstein filmed each of these sexual encounters – and that the woman involved also obtained copies of the tapes. 

No such footage has ever been publicly uncovered. The FBI is now under pressure to release hundreds of items of evidence that was photographed during a raid on Epstein’s mansion in 2019 but that was never seized. 

‘She confided in me about her casual ‘friendship’ with Donald,’ Ransome said of the unnamed friend, whose age is not revealed.

Ransome claimed to have been sent footage by her friend that showed her having sex with Clinton, Trump and Richard Branson, but said she could not share the videos without her friend’s consent. 

Nothing came of their exchange – Ransome retracted all of her claims after multiple emails, telling Callahan ‘no good’ would come from sharing her allegations publicly. 

‘I want to walk away from this…I shouldn’t have contacted you and I’m sorry I wasted your time. It’s not worth coming forward and I will never be heard anyhow and only bad things will happen as a consequence of me going public. 

‘This will just create pain for my family and I and they have already helped me pick up the pieces once before. I can’t ask them to do that again.’ 

They were included in a filing that was unsealed today in which Alan Dershowitz, Trump’s former lawyer, argued why his name and the names of other prominent figures needed to remain anonymous. 

Other files contain previously unseen photos of scantily-clad women on the island.  

Virginia Giuffre, who sued Ghislaine Maxwell for defamation and claims she had sex with Prince Andrew, said the names should be made public.

Third batch of Epstein documents released: Les Wexner’s wife Abigail called ‘to talk about something private’

The third batch of Epstein documents was released on Friday and includes details of phone messages left for the late pedophile by Victoria Secret mogul Les Wexner’s wife, Abigail, and the search terms lawyers used while combing through Ghislaine Maxwell‘s computers. 

Twenty-nine exhibits were uploaded on Friday in the latest tranche of papers. They were all filed and kept secret for years as part of Virginia Giuffre‘s lawsuit against Ghislaine Maxwell in 2015. Giuffre sued because Ghislaine had accused her publicly of lying about sleeping with Prince Andrew.

The long-awaited ‘list’ has not yielded the type of allegations that many hoped for, aside from a previously unreported claim of an ‘orgy’ involving Prince Andrew. 

Instead, the documents reveal closer details of Epstein’s inner circle and the extent of his closeness with high profile individuals like Bill Clinton. 

Among the newest files are details of how Virginia’s team thought they could nail Maxwell and Epstein. 

The attorneys were given permission to search Maxwell’s computers and iCloud, finding anything that would prove Virginia’s claims that the pair ran a sophisticated sex trafficking ring involving some of the world’s most powerful.

Bill Clinton to be unmasked as ‘Doe 36’ and identified more than 50 times in Jeffrey Epstein doc dump

Former President Bill Clinton will be identified as “John Doe 36” in a trove of court documents related to late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein which are expected to be released this week, according to a report.

Clinton, 77, is mentioned more than 50 times across redacted documents related to a 2015 lawsuit from Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre, according to ABC News.

Many of the references to Clinton are believed to stem from Giuffre’s attempts to compel the former president to testify against the late sex offender and his former paramour and co-conspirator, Ghislaine Maxwell.

Other Clinton mentions are expected to be related to attempts from both Maxwell and Giuffre to make Epstein come clean in 2016 after he repeatedly invoked his Fifth Amendment rights during a deposition in that lawsuit.

The documents are not expected to implicate Clinton in any illegal activity, ABC reported.

The names of more than 170 people — known only as John and Jane Does previously — with ties to Epstein are expected to be revealed in the documents after Manhattan federal Judge Loretta Preska ruled just before Christmas they would be unsealed in the new year.

Because of the New Year’s Day holiday, the documents are expected to be released beginning on Jan. 2.

HOW THE PRISON LITIGATION REFORM ACT BLOCKS JUSTICE FOR PRISONERS

In 2014, Abu Huraira, 45, was transferred to Georgia State Prison after 16 years in the custody of the Georgia Department of Corrections (GDC). On his arrival, prison officials failed to give him an initial medical screening, violating GDC policy. Because of that, Huraira went weeks without receiving medication for his chronic pain or dental care for a decaying tooth, despite submitting multiple requests to medical staff at the prison. Additionally, prison officials forced Huraira, a Muslim, to shave his beard using unsanitized clippers, exposing him to the risk of bloodborne diseases, and denied him access to Islamic prayer services, according to a lawsuit he later filed in federal court.

When Huraira sued GDC for violating his rights to medical care and religious liberty, GDC attorneys didn’t dispute the substance of his allegations. Instead, they argued that he had no right to sue at all because he had not filed a formal grievance with prison authorities. Even though Huraira told the court that corrections officers had refused to allow him to file a grievance, a federal judge ruled in GDC’s favor and dismissed Huraira’s lawsuit on the grounds that he had “failed to exhaust administrative remedies.”

All of this was possible thanks to a little-known federal law called the Prison Litigation Reform Act (PLRA). Signed into law in 1996 by President Bill Clinton, the PLRA sought to tamp down on “frivolous” lawsuits filed by prisoners by making it easier for courts to dismiss cases before they ever went to trial. The law also capped the amount of damages prisoners could collect from prison officials who violated their constitutional rights, discouraging professional attorneys from taking on prisoners’ cases.

As a result, the PLRA has made it virtually impossible for prisoners to hold corrections officials accountable for civil rights violations like excessive force or inadequate medical care. Without judicial oversight, corrections officials act with impunity because they rarely face consequences for violating prisoners’ rights.

10 Steps to the Edge of the Abyss

At this moment, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists Doomsday Clock now stands at only 90 seconds before midnight. Thus, as we move closer and closer to a nuclear World War 3, why not identify the major steps that took us to this dangerously slippery road? Who knows, perhaps this exercise could help to bring some perspective to those who are pushing us into oblivion. They have families and children too. Sometimes even the greatest villains have the moment of repentance.

Here is my take of the ten such major events in the chronological order and those responsible for them.

Arkansas cops rule suicide in death of Clinton aide linked to Jeffrey Epstein – who was found shot and tied to a tree with an electrical cord around his neck – despite no sign of weapon

The grisly scene where a top Bill Clinton adviser was found hanged from a tree with a gunshot wound to his chest has finally been revealed nine months after he died. 

But the sheriff’s report into Mark Middleton’s mysterious death raises more questions than answers as it rules he died by suicide – despite no sign of the weapon that killed him.

Middleton, 59, was found dead last May at the Heifer Ranch in Perryville, Arkansas, an hour west of Little Rock.  

Release of the report was held up after members of his family petitioned a judge. They were worried that pictures from the gory scene would be made public.

The judge eventually ruled that details could be released but photographs could not. 

The report, written by Perry County Sheriff’s Deputy Jeremy Lawson, says he was called to the ranch by worker Samantha McElroy who had found Middleton’s abandoned black BMW SUV.

McElroy, 46, then walked around a cottage on the ranch.

‘Almost immediately after stepping around the corner of the cottage she started yelling,’ wrote Lawson.

‘Upon reaching the back of the cottage she pointed towards the rear of the property and asked if that was a person.

‘I could see what at first appeared to be a man sitting near a tree, as my eyes focused better, I could see a rope of some type going from the tree limb to the male.”

Lawson said it was clear that Middleton was dead.

‘I could see that he had a gunshot wound to the chest and that he had a knot tied in an extension cord that was around his neck and it was attached to the limb directly above him.

The deputy said a search of Middleton’s vehicle turned up three boxes of buckshot and a gun case – but no weapon. 

The details give fresh insight into the death of Middleton, a married father of two daughters aged 18 and 20 who was found dead on May 7 last year.

Rep. MTG Calls For Committee to Investigate Epstein/Maxwell Clients, Highlights Clinton Foundation Involvement

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) urged the formation of a committee to investigate the list of powerful people included in Ghislaine Maxwell’s client list, and any possible Clinton Foundation connections, following the Epstein madam’s sentencing earlier this week.

“You know what else would be very good committee hearings? Investigating Jeffrey Epstein’s friends who enjoyed the hard work of this madam, who handed over minors to powerful men for sexual pleasure,” Rep. Greene responded after Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison Tuesday.

Rep. Greene was referring to the long list of powerful people who visited Little St. James, Epstein’s private Virgin Island property dubbed “Pedophile Island” by locals.

Former US President Bill Clinton’s name appeared on flight logs for Epstein’s plane, dubbed the Lolita Express, at least 26 times.

“Maxwell named the Clinton Foundation as an organization she worked with,” Greene continued.

During her lawsuit against Maxwell, Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre asked the court to have Maxwell turn over financial records, specifically ones regarding “any source of funding for the TerraMar Project or any other not-for-profit entities with which you are associated, including but not limited to, funding received from the Clinton Global Initiative, the Clinton Foundation (a/k/a William J. Clinton Foundation, a/k/a/ the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation), and the Clinton Foundation Climate Change Initiative.”

An anonymous friend of Maxwell’s also described meeting Clinton Foundation execs during a party at Maxwell’s apartment in New York City in 2005, where former Clinton Foundation adviser Doug Band was in attendance.

Judge Seals Records In Suicide Of Former Clinton Aide Connected To Epstein

An Arkansas judge has issued a preliminary injunction to seal the police report and crime scene photographs of Little Rock businessman Mark Middleton, a former aide to President Bill Clinton.

It was Middleton that was one of the people who introduced Clinton to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein when he admitted him to the White House several times, Radar Online reported.

Middleton “was found May 7 hanging from a tree with a shotgun blast through his chest and a cheap Dollar Tree-type extension cord around his neck in what investigators have determined to be a suicide.”

“The Court finds the public’s interest in disclosure of the Media Content does not outweigh the Middletons’ protected privacy interest in the Media Content at this time,” Perry County Circuit Judge Alice Gray said on June 20.

“The Court finds that since Mr. Middleton’s death, the Middleton have been harassed by individuals with outlandish, hurtful, unsubstantiated, and offensive conspiracy theories regarding Mr. Middleton, his death, and his family, which have caused the Middletons immense harm and anguish,” the judge said.

Ghislaine Maxwell Touted Her Connection to Bill Clinton, How She Helped Launch His Global Initiative

Ghislaine Maxwell cited her relationship with former President Bill Clinton as a reason to lessen her sentence for trafficking underage girls for her former partner Jeffrey Epstein.

Maxwell referenced her work with Clinton’s philanthropic efforts, specifically her efforts in launching the Clinton Global Initiative, as proof that she has a “desire to do good in the world,” and therefore she should only be sentenced to four years in jail.

Epstein’s former partner was found guilty of trafficking and sexually abusing underage girls last December and will be sentenced on Monday. 

Maxwell not only claimed that she had received death threats in prison, but had also been told by her guards that “there was concern she could be shot by a sniper,” the alleged explanation for why she was being held in such high security conditions.

Her 77-page filing claims that prosecutors made her a scapegoat for Epstein, who hung himself in 2019 while awaiting trial. It also references “history of philanthropy, charitable work, and helping others, namely her work with the Clinton Global Initiative.”
