.) Ward said she did not write or approve of the phrase “sexual peccadillos.” Asked to clarify, she said she would explain further “in my own narrative” in an upcoming podcast and documentary.
And maybe that’s why so many women looked the other way. The teenage victims took their cues from the beautiful women Epstein employed, who kept up the appearance of a world of wealth and play. The sense of normalization then rippled outward to society at large, where more powerful women failed to call out Epstein’s behavior, or downplayed it, whether because of outside pressure or their own blind spots.
The fact that so many women know so much more, yet have stayed silent, might be the most depressing part of this story.
There are beliefs, American Indians, and others, who conjecture a woman will do anything for someone who has saved them.
Blaming this on women is ridiculous.
Cross out Epstein and replace with Trump and you have the same story.
This is not the angle 😒
GET BACK TO ME WHEN YOU GO THROUGH ALL THE MEN!!!!!!
Wow that’s fucked up
Bye bitch No person asksforit
Yup. Sounds about right. Blame women. Kay. Oh, and what were they wearing? Asking for a friend.
This is disgusting. Sounds like another pervert trying to justify the unjustifiable. Delete now.
DrJessTaylor women blaming alert
If only women had intervened
Oh, you GUYS…..!!!!
cuibono
i think it’s very clear and has very little to do with the many women around him 💵👴🏻💵👴🏻💵👴🏻
wait what?
The only thing missing from this piece are the va-va-voom photos.
I'd tell you to go to hell but you appear to have made yourselves comfy there already.
Men
Minor females are not women and cannot consent. Women are not responsible for the bad acts of men.
are you fucking serious this is disgusting and needs to be removed now.
here we go.. blame the women for the predator.... really his mom is responsible.
No it is simple follow the money and it leads to corrupt politicians and with there devious nature
Clearly hardly anyone commenting actually read this article. I recommend reading it beforehand. It does not victim blame at all
Omfg. Glad I unfollowed y’all.
Er ... the many MEN who enabled Jeffrey ... you damned morons.
You really went there? DO NOT BLAME THE WOMEN AND CHILDREN. I can't believe I had to say that.🤦♀️
Yep, takes a bit to get me to unfollow a news page but 1980 called, they want their attitude to sex traffickers and sexual abuse back when you've finished with it. This article should embarrass you.
Ooooooooooooo... I'd rethink how this tweet might come across to basically every human.
It is very clear. It remains unclear exactly how Politico is unable to figure it out though.
Just GhislaineMaxwell. The rest of the accomplices & enablers were powerful & wealthy men. Yes, wealthy & powerful men suck and make the world suck. Their depravity has harmed countless girls, and continues to do so even now (re: Greenberg & Gaetz; who knows maybe DeSantis).
BLAME THE WOMEN. NOT. Egads, who writes this crap?
Maybe you ask Bill Barr and his father.
Huh...white wealthy dude not held to account because he peddled children to other powerful white dudes...go figure...
I read the first paragraph and nopped my way outta there.
Politico has a new editor
O hell no. The only woman to be considered in that regard is Ghislaine.
Blame the women now?
$$$$ LOTS Of CASH Is ''How Epstein Got Away With It'..The Poor & Unconnected Are ALWAYS Held (Accountable) While The Rich & Powerful..Get AWAY With Any Thing They Can BUY...; Sex, Drugs,Politicians,JUSTICE..🧐🤮🤮It's Called REALITY
The WOMEN? Are you kidding? The WOMEN. I'm not reading this trash.
Never mind all the men who participated and knew, lawyers, judges, prosecutors....
What now you are blaming this on the women? MEN in power protected Epstein from any consequences. and when he was finally arrested, men made sure he'd never have a chance to testify.
Nah. THIS is how he got away with it. I sat in court with him for 3 days.
Oh, yes let's blane the women.
... wow
Or alternatively, he was a sexual deviant who had loads of money
Should be a RICO case; the facts fit its very simple elements precisely. Sex and gender seem to confuse prosecutors.
Politico you are truly morphing rapidly into garbage.
No, it’s about the Kompromat Epstein had over very wealthy and powerful people. The women and girls were victims of him whether they choose to embrace that idea or not. Stop the victim blaming and shaming and focus on the criminals that made it possible.
Of course it was the women who enabled him and not the powerful men who covered up his crimes. Let’s just blame everyone except the perpetrators.
How hard is it to understand that he was wealthy?
What the actual fuck, no NO FUCKING NO! Retract.
Do better 😡
You’ve got to kidding me with this BS headline and article.
tarapalmeri Wait a sec…We are blaming the women?!? Not the men like LesWexner/LeonBlack/BillGates/JohnBrockman/Clinton/Trump who all knew and/or partook of the SexTrafficking? Or the men like Acosta or other people at DoJ or in LawEnforcement/Intel who covered up for it? 🤦♀️
What about the giant golf course in the palm beach area?
Weird take
Money. Duh
I won’t read this rubbish but blaming women for Epstein’s behavior seems to be your point. If so, get another profession, you’re unfit for this one.
Wow. Let’s blame the victim instead of who are really responsible...like the powerful men who enabled and encouraged.
And waiting for soledadobrien
The worst of the bad takes. JFC.
Start with Les Wexner.
Alex Acosta is a woman? Hmm..that's a revelation. Donald Trump as well? And every financier who let Epstein 'manage' their money and visited his sex island?
What?
Yeah but, who killed him? Bueller?....Bueller?...
We already know your publication is trash LOL you don't have to keep reminding us😭😭😭😭
Rich and famous always get away with crimes in this corrupt country. Look at trump and his mobsters. They all are free and obstructing justice living in golden mansions lawlessly
M o n e y.
Let’s not push the blame on the women. Trump made a statement years back suggesting to Epstein’s tastes. A lot of people knew about what Epstein was doing yet stayed silent about it.
money buys souls
It wasn't women, it was various law enforcement and world intelligence agencies. Except for his bottom bitch GM.
Victim blaming. Not a responsible take on this,
You are blaming the women for the actual pedo sex trafficker?
The men who enabled Epstein Acosta Worked With Billionaire Jeffrey Epstein to Downplay ...
What is this 💩
Matt Gaetz says Acosta's deal shouldn't be reexamined
Because he was closely affiliated with men in very high places in government positions...they were either involved or looked the other way .. you can never hide the truth...right now is the time for the truth to be revealed
Politico you have a massive problem on your hands if you’re writing this kind of misogynistic crap. My advice is to crawl back in the hole you came out of.
“Unclear” uh huh okay
Alex Acosta is scum and corrupt alexacosta
HearGaza IsraelTerrorism IsraelTerrorist Palestine
Uh, maybe because one or more foreign intelligence services protected him?
Sick people. Very sick.
