Will powerful men be held accountable? Will links to “intelligence” be meaningfully investigated? If it was blackmail, what was the actual target?

Ghislaine Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison for conspiring with Jeffrey Epstein to sexually abuse minors on Tuesday. Her lawyers have stated they will appeal the sentence.

The timing of events often strikes me as notable. Surprise witness Cassidy Hutchinson testified at the Jan. 6 hearings just as Maxwell’s sentence was announced on Tuesday.

This virtually assured minimal coverage for the Maxwell verdict.

A serious hypothesis needs to be on the table that there is a massive apparatus to distract and manage information and the public mind.

Also ironic is that rapper R. Kelly was sentenced to 30 years on Wednesday for abusing young women and girls.

Meanwhile, all the other wealthy and establishment white men implicated in the Epstein/Maxwell scandal seem to have evaded any meaningful justice.
