Stephen King on Epstein's list?

People are freaking out over his post on Bluesky.

What a way to put yourself unnecessarily in the line of fire.

by Anonymousreply 1July 15, 2025 9:38 PM

Lots of people will be on the list. But IMO Trump is going to make sure he isn't mentioned. If he was in danger, he would kill the list...which is what he is doing. The fact that Clinton and others might show up on Epstein's list doesn't matter to Trump. He'd let them twist in the wind. But he won't ever do anything to hurt himself.

by Anonymousreply 2July 15, 2025 9:50 PM

Well he does like to troll MAGAts so that's probably his intention here but yeah, probably not the best plan to insert yourself (a billionaire leftist elite) into the fray

I do remember reading some BI or rumor that during his drunk/druggy days in the 70s/80s he molested his daughter. Maybe it was someone here on Datalounge that had gone to school with her? Or it could have been a CDAN item. If you believe that I guess it wouldn't be a stretch he could be on Epstein's "list"

Doubtful there’s an actual list that’s any sort of smoking gun. I instead think what exists is evidence connecting various high-profile politicians, celebrities, etc., to different events or appearances on the island and to different underage girls. I expect evidence to include photos. It may be problematic for these politicians, etc., when referenced against witness testimony. There was an interesting thread on Reddit (yes, I’ll take it for what it’s worth) that posits that Epstein was a foreign agent/actor, and that his activities, connections and the island were to help him collect kopromant on world leaders. Knowledge of what went on could destabilize world governments, and who benefits from that? They think that’s why, for example, even high profile establishment Democrats and celebrities are keeping tight lipped about releasing the files. But really, we don’t need to see a list per se, we need to see the evidence collected in its entirety. We need to see the photographs, testimony, witness statements, etc.

Anyone who has dealings like Epstein did has to have some kind of way of keeping track of everything and everyone. There is, or was, a "list" or a document or a spreadsheet or folders of some sort at one point. That's different from the tooth fairy and Santa Clause right there and I don't like how Stephen is framing it.

Now, if he means Trump never got a hold of it or that the record(s) were destroyed or whatever, that's possible. But he's a writer and knows how his comment as written will sound.

by Anonymousreply 5July 15, 2025 10:03 PM

Don't you remember when Epstein died? Within hours Billy Barr our Attorney General, had the FBI r aiding the island estate to secure and recover all t he records files and evidence. What happened to it?? Trump likes to say it was Comey or Obama or whatever, but no, it was the Republicans who were in charge. Bush and Trump. BArr was Epstein's friend for years.

by Anonymousreply 6July 15, 2025 10:27 PM

t isn't about just Trump or the celebrities, Trump knew a lot of hedge fund guys and other shady money people. They probably consorted with Epstein and are still around Trump today.

He’s pissed both sides off.

by Anonymousreply 8July 15, 2025 11:55 PM

Michael Wolff claims to have seen pictures of Dump with topless young girls sitting on his lap, and a wet stain on the front of Dump's pants. He claims Epstein showed them to him.

King is rich enough to hang with Epstein and ugly enough to pay for sex.

by Anonymousreply 10July 16, 2025 3:42 AM

Many many people are on the list. Good and bad on both sides.

by Anonymousreply 11July 16, 2025 3:57 AM

Wasn't it fat fuck Bill Barr's father that got Epstein his first teaching job at a NY prep school (probably to recruit young cooze)? And didn't the father write sci fi books about adolescent slave girls in space?

by Anonymousreply 12July 16, 2025 3:58 AM

How could any bigwig with a modicum of intelligence fall for the Epstein ruse? It’s like Profumo all over again. This kind of stuff has always gone on. I don’t understand the stupidity.

I think people are expecting a list of names and the underage girls they raped and location date and time. Nobody ever kept such a list. There are likely all kinds of documents photos films who knows. If you think we will ever see any of that, I have a peepee tape to sell you.

by Anonymousreply 15July 16, 2025 4:49 AM

Also, as soon as Espstein was arrested I am sure most remaining evidence was wiped away.

by Anonymousreply 16July 16, 2025 4:50 AM

What list? Who would actually keep a list?

Wasn't there a picture of it?

Virginia and Epstein are dead and Ghislane is in jail, Prince Andrew tarnished.

I remember reading about it on CDAN with ENTY before it broke. Maybe they have the list.

by Anonymousreply 17July 16, 2025 4:54 AM

Who would keep such a list, R17? Epstein. He had cameras throughout his houses. Where are the films?

by Anonymousreply 18July 16, 2025 7:34 AM

I think the world “List” is the new “Sexual Relations.” There might not be a delineated list of clients. So they can get away saying there is no list. But you could definitely compile one from all of people listed in the documents. There isn’t a list of clients on a database, but there are probably files of each client.

by Anonymousreply 19July 16, 2025 8:34 AM

King is clearly saying that there is NO such list.

What if it's like the in movies, where Ghislaine has all kinds of photos, and scraps of paper with names and dates, and copies of emails talking about what they did and thanking Jeffrey, and videos, etc. and she has all this stuff hidden in safe keeping somewhere. She tells the "authorities" that if anything bad should happen to her, all the stuff will be made public instantly. So that's what is keeping her alive.

by Anonymousreply 21July 16, 2025 1:12 PM

And R20 the question to ask is how the fuck would he know?

by Anonymousreply 22July 16, 2025 5:09 PM

He's trolling the QAnon/MAGA people R22.

He's not a big fan of those people or Trump in case you don't know.

by Anonymousreply 23July 16, 2025 5:26 PM

In that case R23, I am not sure why a very public figure like Stephen King would want to troll the dark recesses of online lunacy which can count a legion of gun toting kooks among its ranks. People are being assaulted and murdered in their homes over less. I am not sure why he would want to wade into that territory. He's already been mowed down by a van before. He has come face to face with death. Why court it again, unnecessarily?

by Anonymousreply 24July 16, 2025 5:36 PM

King was [bold]accidentally[/bold] hit by a van 26 years ago while out walking R24. The driver was distracted by his dog and didn't see King. It wasn't a planned assassination attempt. King constantly trolls those cunts by making nasty comments about Trump and MAGA R24. That's his prerogative I suppose. Why should he live in fear and be silenced? Isn't silence what authoritarian dictatorship regimes like the Trump regime thrive and grow on?

My point was more about how the fuck did all the QAnon/MAGA crazies come to the conclusion that King was siding with Trump and that he was ON the list himself from that tweet. It couldn't be any more clear. He's saying there's no list. No Tooth Fairy. No Santa. He's saying that because he knows that the QAnon/MAGA cunts will go nuts and they did. No of course King doesn't know for sure that there is no list but he's trolling them anyway and it worked.

by Anonymousreply 25July 16, 2025 6:16 PM

King is pointing out that MAGAtry at large expects there to be a discreet, neatly organized list (of Democrats) to target, take down, destroy and/or kill. The reality is as R21 lays it out; there is no "list", there is a great deal of evidence that a competent attorney could put together well enough to convince a jury of the accused's guilt and the problem for Trump is that the accused big names are all his inner circle and the only names big enough to make a splash in the news coming from outside Trump's orbit are either dead, on their way (Dersh), or protected enough (Prince Andrew) to avoid suffering any consequences.

I'll guarantee that if Bill Clinton's name (or pseudonym they could tie to him) were included in this evidence pile, the would have found a way to selectively release it, he would have been indicted, it's all they would be talking about on Fox and CNN, and it would be a headline so huge on the front page of [italic]The New York Times[/italic] that it would take up the entire above-the-fold space.

The issue and reason for the delay/obfuscation/outright cover-up is because there is only one name on that "list" that would garner any coverage: T R U M P. And there [bold]must[/bold] be receipts to prove it so clearly that even the Qanon portion of MAGAtry would see it.

Is there any update on Bongino's threat that it's either Bondi or him? That'll tell us more than anything...

The only list King is on is my shitlist for too many books with Holly Gibney.

I am suffering Holly fatigue and wish Cujo would get her.

Horseshit R28. R10 nailed nothing.

King may be rich and famous but he’s never been the type to hang with the rest. He was in a band with other authors for a time but that’s about it.

by Anonymousreply 30July 16, 2025 8:00 PM

Yeah it's not a list. It's ceiling fan camera footage of the collapsed asses of millionaires pumping away at dissociated 14 year olds

Laughing at the idea that Epstein kept some list called "Guys I Committed Crimes With" or some shit like that

There's no list. Sorry, Qanon

One of the girls talked about Simpsons creator Matt Groening being on the plane and making her rub his disgusting feet.

R25 you are so far up your own post, I don't think you even really heard what I was saying. I was not saying there has already been an assignation attempt on King. I was saying that he has already had one serious brush with death. I don't know why he would poke the bear of a bunch of crazies with guns who aren't afraid of using them. Of course there is free speech. And free speech covers being reckless. I don't know why he would want to be so reckless as to taunt crazies - especially when we've had senators spouses being attacked with hammers, legislators being gunned down in their homes, and tones of other threats of dismemberment and mayhem. Why risk it all of that just to troll people who get trolled by a stiff wind?

by Anonymousreply 34July 16, 2025 8:59 PM

He will never show that list AND it is his complete undoing.

by Anonymousreply 35July 16, 2025 9:08 PM

You don’t know that, R29.

by Anonymousreply 36July 16, 2025 9:10 PM

If there’s nothing in the files and it’s a lefty hoax, then why the fuck is Ghislaine sitting in prison? On what evidence was she sentenced to prison? The same evidence that now doesn’t exist!?
