There are post mortem pics of him in the Epstein files it seems.

• The Epstein files
• ICE
• Election meddling
• etc.

That’s the plan.

I’m not from the US but I’m old enough to remember 9/11, and what’s happening right now in your country seems waaaaay different from then. There was no ICE. People weren’t kidnapped in broad daylight. Bush wasn’t trying to subvert the electoral process. Minorities at large weren’t explicitly targeted.

40M is nothing to Bezos, and it’s a good investment if it wins him a few favors from Trump.
