After casting her vote for Donald Trump in 2024 in hopes that he would bring transparency around the Jeffrey Epstein case, Epstein survivor Jena Lisa Jones said in an interview this week that she now fears “we’re not going to get justice in all of this”.

    Let me be clear, she was a victim and deserves justice.

    Also he was BFFs with Trump, why the ever loving fuck would you expect him to seek justice?!

    I agree with her. Her countrymen don’t care, as long as no harm comes to them they don’t care what happens to the people around them.

    Funny how most of the decent ones are those the rest have abused and left abandoned like this.

      I seriously don’t fucking get this people. Everybody with a brain cell count higher than 2 said : Trump is in cahoots with Epstein. Now they vote for him, reality smack their butts and I should have empathy for them ? You literally vote for your rapist !

      Fuck that.

      She’s not some smug hypocrite getting her comeuppance - if anyone gets a pass for believing those files might finally come out, it’s her.

        Why would she get a pass for believe someone who was well known to be in the Epstein files and is a known con artist? She might not be a hypocrite, but she’s for sure fucking stupid. And honestly, whether she votes that way from profound idiocy or actual malice, it doesn’t matter. She helped fuck us all. And fuck her for that.

        Trump’s platform was laid out plainly leading up to the election. He was already heavily implicated to being involved with Epstein. Either she’s a complete idiot that is so out of touch that it’s unfathomable, or she knew who Trump is and what he’s about and decided that the damage he would do to other demographics was acceptable, making her a hypocrite. The idea that Trump was actually going to release the Epstein files and somehow bring justice takes a whole level of stupid to believe.

        Hitler was a Zionist, a lot of Jews supported that

        They deported a lot of Jews to what is now Israel

        Believe it or not, there were actually several notable “Jews for Hitler” types of movements in Germany. They were conservative Jews who supported Hitler’s conservative views more than they feared his antisemitism. They hand-waved away the antisemitism, believing that it was over-exaggerated to garner votes.

        People are dumb, and many will naturally want to believe that persecution is something that happens to immoral people. If someone is being persecuted, it’s obviously because they did something to deserve it. It can’t happen to me, because I am moral and have done nothing to deserve it! Because if I accept that persecution can happen to moral people, then that would conflict with my established worldview that the world is inherently just. I am successful, and therefore I am just. And unjust things don’t happen to just people. Because accepting that the world is unjust means accepting that things like disasters, disabilities, diseases, and systemic persecution could happen to me. And that is scary, so I choose to reject that possibility and insist that the world is inherently just!

    Didn’t it come out that she was actually a recruiter for Trump/Epstein’s trafficking operation but is playing victim?
