What seemed like a conspiracy a few years ago is now being revealed as a fact. The United States is controlled by a corrupt cabal of politicians who are personally involved in twisted perversions. The infamous Hunter Biden laptop gave the nation a peek into this sordid world of drug addiction, negotiating purchases of prostitutes, and trafficking human beings. But as a new Wall Street Journal editorial relates, Hunter Biden is not unique. He is just one of many Washington, D.C., elites using their power to service their sick addictions.

It’s horrible, but it’s true. And we know about it largely because of Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein was a super-rich, well-connected billionaire financier who was also heavily involved in providing women and children to other elites to rape. He apparently engaged in these monstrous crimes as early as the 1980s, but became known publicly as a pedophile in 2005 when a parent reported that he had raped her 14-year-old daughter. For whatever reason, Epstein couldn’t stop the truth from coming out, he pleaded guilty, was convicted, endured an astonishingly weak and brief punishment—and officially became a known child rapist. Investigators found that he abused dozens of young girls, and the real list of his victims over the decades could be in the hundreds or thousands.

Epstein was arrested again in 2019 for trafficking children for sex. About a month later, he died in his jail cell. He hung himself, the two security cameras didn’t work, the guards fell asleep, and his body was moved against protocols: “a perfect storm of screw ups,” as Attorney General Bill Barr put it. That’s the official explanation. Many think he was murdered. Even though Epstein is now dead, the revelations keep coming about how many extremely rich, extremely powerful, extremely well-known people continued to associate with him after his 2005 conviction.

Former President Bill Clinton is perhaps Epstein’s most infamous associate. Epstein visited the White House 17 times during Clinton’s presidency, and Clinton visited Epstein and flew on his plane. Court documents show that Epstein had more than 160 other powerful associates. Among them were Prince Andrew of York, Swiss financier Ariane de Rothschild, Microsoft founder Bill Gates, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, White House Counsel Kathryn Ruemmler, corporate consultant Joshua Cooper Ramo, private equity consultant Leon Black, Bard College president Leon Botstein, retail billionaire Leslie Wexner, American intellectual Noam Chomsky, Democrat billionaire Reid Hoffman, Central Intelligence Agency Director William Burns, director Woody Allen and others.

Why did these high-profile people meet so often with a convicted sex offender? It has been public knowledge since March 2005 that Epstein admitted to paying a 14-year-old girl $300 to strip naked and massage him. Yet after he was released from his 13-month prison sentence in 2009, academics, media moguls, politicians and public figures resumed business with him despite—or perhaps because of—his twisted sexual appetites.

Epstein’s island resort and Manhattan townhouse were wired for video, so no one who hired him to procure women could turn against him without having their own vices exposed. Yet numerous members of America’s ruling elite met with Epstein anyway, and some of them even had the gall to turn around and falsely accuse others of the crimes their political associates (and perhaps they themselves) were guilty of committing.

According to a recent report from Madeleine Hubbard at the blog Just the News, “The billionaire Democratic mega-donor Reid Hoffman—who founded LinkedIn and is funding author E. Jean Carroll’s rape lawsuit against former President Donald Trump—visited the private island of convicted sex offender and financier Jeffery Epstein and was scheduled to stay at his Manhattan townhouse in 2014, documents show.”

You read that right! Epstein trafficked hundreds of young women and girls on his private island and personally abused at least 36 of them. But Hoffman never mentions that. He is too busy making up bogus claims that Donald Trump raped a woman in the middle of a department store three decades ago. Just like Democrats used the Steele dossier to frame President Trump of crimes that Hunter Biden is actually guilty of committing, so Hoffman is falsely accusing Trump of doing something that Hoffman’s friend Epstein exceeded, dozens of times.

A woman named Ghislaine Maxwell helped Epstein engage in his wicked perversions for decades. She has actually been convicted of helping Epstein engage in sexual abuse. Yet who actually raped the children is a mystery. There are undoubtedly dozens of elites in Washington, D.C., and elsewhere who have abused women and even children with Epstein’s help, but none of them have been held to account because they are part of a “deep state” network that protects its own while trying to project its crimes onto the innocent. The cabal currently running America is sick beyond imagination!

Back in 2009, New York State warned people that Epstein was a level-3 sex offender who was likely to commit sex crimes again. How did the American elite treat him? Did they hang up the phone? Delete his e-mails? Turn elsewhere? No, they sought out his business expertise as if he were the only financial adviser in America! This makes no sense unless the business expertise these leaders really wanted was in sex trafficking.

When the ultra-wealthy elites gather at Davos, Switzerland, every year for the World Economic Forum conference, at least 100 prostitutes and escorts are on hand. The sex trade is a thriving industry facilitated by many other men like Epstein who either have enough power to avoid exposure, so far, or who limit their wretched business to victims older than 18.

Epstein was arrested the first time during the Bush administration and the second time during the Trump administration, but he avoided prosecution while Clinton and Obama were in power. The only way for such a high-profile figure to get away with so many heinous crimes for so long is if he is protected by many powerful people. The deep state is deeper than most people know. That is why Epstein went unpunished for so long. It is also probably why Epstein mysteriously died in jail before he could face trial and more facts could come out.

The revelations about Epstein and those he was connected to are thanks to the fact that God is exposing America’s sins so that we have an opportunity to repent! But if Americans do not take this opportunity, the corruption will only get worse. The Prophet Joel warned, “For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem, I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land. And they have cast lots for my people; and have given a boy for an harlot, and sold a girl for wine, that they might drink” (Joel 3:1-3).

Epstein has forced teenagers to prostitute themselves for $300, but the Bible says that if America does not repent of its sins and purge wicked leaders, a time is coming when girls will be sold for a glass of wine. Normally, this type of purge would take a civil war, but God promises in 2 Kings 14:26-28 and Amos 7:8 than he will temporarily save America through an end-time type of King Jeroboam ii so people have a chance to repent the easy way. But this will be the last time God spares America before our sins plunge us into great tribulation!
