WriteerNg:Russia should be offered territorial domain of areas try have captured for a period say 25 years . After which it reverts to Ukraine. Putin will be gone by then ,so he can take it without losing face. Zelensky also gets his demand to never cede an inch of Ukraine. Just my thoughts.

[quote author=WriteerNg post=138501458]⚡Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi: Iran has consistently affirmed that it neither seeks to manufacture nor acquire nuclear weapons.

A. Muslim preacher in Dearborn
While you may think I don't like Islam, this is why. Majority of Islamic teaching is peaceful, at least the one aired publicly. Most Muslims just want to live in peace ,raise their families and life goes on. Two big sects of Islam the Wahabbi and Salafis teach extreme interpretation of Islam.. Many Saudi and ME trained preachers are of those sects. The Islamic population "forced" to attend mandatory Friday prayers get to hear those messages albeit in Arabic which few understand. Those who become devout are the ones likely to become terrorists. What these radicals preach is found within their holy books.Adherents of these radical preachers are the ones who see their children as the next generation of jihadists. Unfortunately if a govt decides to eavesdrop in what's being taught , the whole Umma ( Islam community) rises up calling such acts as islamophobic. Are they complacent. Yes because they support their radicals and jihadists as long as it's not them doing it. They celebrate for every Islamic win be it forcing halal, loud prayers, Muslim mayors, etc Liberals are the loudest shills for these radical preachers loudly declaring Islam is the religion of peace (as if anybody asked them). The enemy of my enemy is my friend , liberals hate Judeo Xtianity values whose foundations built up the Western societies. |

Republican Nancy Mace wants the video and audio of Epstein CCTV cameras released. She has also sent a letter demanding the unredacted copy of a charging document by SDNY in 2019 regarding the co-conspirators of Epstein m As the Department of Justice continues releasing millions of pages from the Jeffrey Epstein files, one question has emerged as perhaps the most persistent—and the most unsettling: Where is all the video? 'Where Are ALL the Videos?' Rep. Nancy Mace, a South Carolina Republican who has become one of the most vocal advocates for Epstein transparency, posed the question directly on February 15, 2026: "Where is ALL the audio and ALL the video from ALL the pinhole cameras at ALL the Epstein properties?" The question isn't speculation. Evidence has mounted for years that Epstein's properties were equipped with extensive, often hidden, surveillance systems. Yet according to Mace, the released materials include only about 2,000 video clips—a number she says defies logic given what's known about Epstein's operation . What We Know About Epstein's Cameras The documentary evidence is substantial. In February 2014, Epstein emailed his longtime pilot Larry Visoski asking him to purchase "three motion-detected hidden cameras." Visoski replied that he had already obtained the equipment, noting they could record for 64 hours and adding a chilling detail: "I'm installing them into Kleenex boxes now" . That same day, Epstein received an email from an individual warning: "if you want to put cameras in the house. It will have to be very discreetly done. The Russians may come in handy" . Further evidence emerged from credit card statements showing two February 2014 transactions at RNMC, a Fort Lauderdale surveillance store specializing in "camera installation, bug sweeping, and private investigation work," totaling more than $1,000 . Earlier Discoveries The 2014 purchases weren't the first indication of surveillance. In 2005, when Palm Beach police investigated Epstein for rape and sexual abuse of girls, detectives searched his mansion and "located two covert cameras" hidden inside clocks—one in the garage, another beside his desk . Detective Jo Recarey later described finding footage captured by a motion-activated clock camera near Epstein's desk, showing images of Epstein and individuals whose identities remain protected . The Contradiction The presence of these cameras conflicts with what federal officials have said. In March 2019, prosecutors in Manhattan provided FBI officials with a description of evidence recovered from Epstein's properties, stating that "there were no cameras found inside any bedrooms or living areas of either residence"—only near entryways . Ghislaine Maxwell has also denied knowledge of any "inappropriate video surveillance," telling Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche that while she hired electricians for Epstein's properties, she was unaware of secret recording systems What's Been Released Among the more than 3.5 million pages made public since January 2026, approximately 2,000 videos have been included. Some newly released footage appears to show Epstein recording himself in his Palm Beach living room, captured by a camera hidden inside a carriage clock . But Mace argues this is merely a fraction of what should exist. "If he had as many cameras as has been reported, there would be far more than 2,000 videos," she posted on X. "Trust me on this. I know, because I've worked with an extensive number of victims in voyeurism cases" . What Victims Have Said Multiple survivors have described being filmed. Marie Farmer, who says Epstein and Maxwell sexually assaulted her in 1996, recalled a "media room" inside the New York property with numerous TVs displaying feeds from cameras in bedrooms and bathrooms. "I asked him: 'What do you do with all this,'" Farmer said. "And he said: 'I keep it all in my safe'" . A source familiar with the investigation previously revealed: "Epstein kept a treasure trove of information on his famous friends. He knew it would provide an insurance policy should anything happen" . The Missing Pieces Mace's broader concern extends beyond video. She has also questioned where logs are from the receptionist station at Epstein's New York home—documentation that reportedly tracked "underage children and people in power coming and going" . During visits to the DOJ to review unredacted files, Mace said she was unable to view "critical information" and that key documents "are missing or still redacted" . She has since compiled a list of names she intends to subpoena, calling it "a longer list than I had anticipated" . The Larger Question For Mace and other transparency advocates, the missing footage represents more than an evidentiary gap—it raises questions about what, or who, is being protected. "I want to be abundantly clear about the DOJ memo released tonight: Citing 'Work Product Privilege' will NOT save the DOJ from releasing all the Epstein files," Mace wrote. "I'm not an attorney and even I know this won't hold up in a court of law" . The implications are profound. If Epstein did systematically record his powerful guests, the footage could implicate figures across politics, business, and international circles. Its absence from the public record inevitably invites suspicion about what remains hidden—and why. As Mace put it in an interview with Piers Morgan: "You would be shocked [at] some of the names that I have seen that came across in emails that the DOJ is protecting." She described the redactions as "one of the greatest cover-ups in American history" . For now, the question Mace posed on February 15 remains unanswered: Where is all the audio and all the video from all the pinhole cameras at all the Epstein properties? #EpsteinFiles #viral #fblifestyles Exactly what I've been demanding. FBI raided all Epstein properties and nothing was ever heard from it regarding the footage. FBI took Anthony Weiners laptop with 700,000 Clinton emails and that was the end. It's said to have done grotesque videos . FBI had previous said CCTV footage outside Epstein cell was missing FBI had identified J6 pipe bomber and refused to identify him. FBI has refused to identify antifa rioters in Jan 6 protests . FBI sat on Hunter Biden laptop which would have shown Trump had every reason to demand Biden be investigated over Ukraine missing billions of aid money,They sat on exculpatory evidence that would have stopped the impeachment immediately. FBI was a criminal organization under Cris Wray and his stooges are still running key departments. Needs fumigation.

Obrigardo..Did Epstein introduce Melania to Donald Trump. Google AI. Donald Trump and Melania Knauss first met in 1998 at a New York Fashion Week party. The meeting took place at the Kit Kat Club during an event hosted by modeling agent Paolo Zampolli. Although Trump arrived with another date—Norwegian heiress Celina Midelfart—he approached Melania to ask for her phone number. Key Details of Their First Meeting: The Exchange: Melania initially refused to give Trump her number because he was with another woman. Instead, she asked for his number to see which one he would provide (office vs. personal). The Response: Trump reportedly gave her all of his numbers, including his office, Mar-a-Lago, and New York home. First Date: After Melania called him a few days later, their first official date was dinner followed by a night at the celebrity hotspot Moomba. Relationship Timeline: The couple dated on and off for several years before Trump proposed at the Met Gala in 2004. They were married on January 22, 2005, in Palm Beach, Florida. Zampolli and Epstein were friends and business associates though. Who you believe ? |
