Get that staff on the news and have them do rounds.
Why is our government so dedicated to protecting elite criminals and their treatment?
Because our government is run by elite criminals, obviously.
Well nothing about them is elite. They are just criminals.
I suppose it would be more accurate to say "because the wealthy have class solidarity."
Fucking hell, if those criminals are the elite of their kind, I dread to think what the shitty, incompetent criminals are like.
Apparently they're like a president.
One of them ran a thing called "Douche" or something at the beginning of the year

Because they're in solidarity with their own class interests. No doubt that there are a bunch of elected officials who would feature in the Epstein files if they were released in full, but even those that wouldn't still have a vested interest in stabilising the current order. Doing this sets a precedent that even if consequences come for some, they will be protected.
Not every elected representative is a corrupt asshole, but I'd wager it's the majority. Some of them probably even think they're acting benevolent in acting to reinforce and protect their own power.
The system isn't broken, it's working exactly as intended.
Because our government is predominantly made up of elite criminals who have just not been caught yet. It's just professional courtesy, really.
Because they defer to power.
Because they're friends
Self interest.
I would argue that it's important to protect any criminal's treatment while imprisoned..... however, this is especially hypocritical for them considering how they normally regard 99% of the people in prison.
Maybe they’re the only ones they can actually empathize with because they can see themselves in an elite prison someday.
~~Why is~~ our government so dedicated to protecting ~~elite~~ their criminals and their treatment.
The question is the answer.
Unless they're planning on killing her this seems like its just as bad for PR as straight up pardoning her.
They're going to say she was mauled to death by the vicious dogs (puppies)
I have the absolute most respect for any whistleblower. I dread to imagine what kind of world we'd be in w/o them. Example, Snowden.
We should start go fundmeing whistleblowers.
Facilitate sex trafficking: preferential treatment
report (leak) wrongdoing: lose job
Lol.... wtf kind of society is this??
This is the bad place
It's what happens when the rich have nothing to fear from the government
They've also been transferring prisoners to maximum security prisons who leak information about her treatment.
A local reporter tried to discuss more with the whistleblower and got a little more
Man she sounds like she gives no fucks. Good on her!
Her answer about security at the end is just perfect
