Thinking about this Profumo affair; he hardly did ANYTHING wrong by today's standards. Similar to Nixon . . . who tried to cover up a pretty tiny mess, yet these miniscule events collapsed their careers and devastated their reputations. . . while Biden allowed in 15 million illegal aliens with apparent intent to take down our country and he is celebrated by the media.
Trump, the chess Grand Master, has often used misdirection to prevail over his opponents. Regarding the Epstein files, it's now looking more and more like he always wanted the files released, but pretended he didn't, knowing the left would think he's trying to hide something, inducing his opponents to breathlessly demand the files be made public. They will then be forced to admit that most of the Epstein clients are Democrat.
Hmmm. Profumo was an honorable man. There are now very few of them in Parliament and in American politics one would be challenged to find even one.
Other than that, the Profumo Affair has no relevance here.
Epstein ran a professional honeytrap operation. Profumo was an amateur who walked into his own trap, like many people do every day.
Epstein came from nowhere and created an industrial-scale targeted harvesting operation: who funded him?
He was murdered under orders once someone important in the USA came into focus but there are many powerful men in all walks of life who tasted the same honey and are recorded doing so.
The thing to watch for now is the shaping of the narrative. We’ll be told by the media what and who are not important - these are the ones to keep an eye on.
“They” seem to be saving the Clintons and Gates for the grand final stake-burning….
But how do we hold the CIA, FBI, Mossad and the compliant media monopoly to account?
That iconic Christine Keeler shot on the Jacobsen chair hit me like a time machine today. Took me straight back to a certain poolside photo my ex, Kathleen, once posted, taken in Europe, same sultry pose, same killer legs, same dark hair framing that pretty face that used to short-circuit my brain. Instant hard-on. Every single photo she ever sent me had the same effect—brain straight to a highlight reel of positions on repeat.
The Profumo Affair was classic: powerful men torching their legacies over a woman who weaponized desire the way Kathleen once weaponized everything else. Some personalities never outgrow that 1960s thrill of watching the mighty fall.
These days that same poolside shot does absolutely nothing for me. When the mask finally cracks and the cruelty is laid bare, lust evaporates faster than shame floods the narcissist on the other side of the lens—and shame is flooding someone right now, whether she admits it or not.
Still… old habits die hard. If a certain red-hat, rosary-clutching ex ever slid into my DMs with a real apology, slipped back into full health-angel mode, and convincingly proved she’s still got that Christine Keeler voltage (instead of the friend-zoned beta energy she’s broadcasting lately), I’ve been known to rewrite narratives. Publicly. Lavishly, even. Reputation repair is easy when it’s earned—and no, you wouldn’t be rejected; this invitation is coming from me. But it’s a limited-time offer. Won’t be on the table forever.
My girlfriend, of course, remains non-negotiable, top of the pyramid, infinitely superior in every metric. Kathleen would have to accept permanent silver-medal status and like it. Otherwise the evisceration continues, full volume, no brakes.
Profumo’s ghosts are still watching, former darling.
Made into a terrific film, Scandal, with John Hurt, Joanne Whalley, and Bridget Fonda.
If you don't mind a personal anecdote, I was a lad of 13 at the time and my father used to bring home the NYC tabloids, the NY Daily News and the NY Post. Every day they carried cheesecake photos of Mandy Rice-Davies and Christine Keeler. Made quite the impression on my budding pubescence. I've been a fan of political scandals ever since. Nobody does a good sex scandal like the Brits.
"I hope that Epstein files will be released and that it will—at the very least—result in the resignation and retirement of much of America’s ruling class, whose lives of extreme privilege and freedom from moral standards and scrutiny have resulted in profligacy and indifference to the wellbeing of the Republic."
If there is anything the Democrats have demonstrated with complete clarity over the last few decades, it is that they are incapable of shame or embarrassment. No matter what is revealed, do not expect any resignations.

Interestingly, Dr Stephen Ward DO, US trained osteopathic physician who moved from the US and practiced in London, becoming a 'society' practitioner and ingratiating himself into the echelons of the political and bureaucratic 'nobility' to whom he introduced 'available' women (ie. Christine Keeler and Mandy Rice-Davies) both of whom were also his friends, is studiously and perhaps, instrumentally ignored by John Leake in his Nov 19 substack article.
Also a famous artist whose drawings were displayed in London's National Gallery before being purchased by a well heeled anonymous establishment individual, Dr Ward died by his own hand in despair and embarrassment, literally hung out to dry by the British establishment.
It may be concluded that he danced with the devil and arguably courted the dire culmination of events upon himself. On the other hand, the depths to which the establishment apparently sank in order to protect itself appear infinite.
And so it is today, in the murderous age of medical and political, "Bafflement."
The Profumo Affair: Dr Stephen Ward's Extraordinary Statement (1963) | Political History
I am old enough to remember the Profumo affair well. Back then the Brits handled those issues quite politely. These days especially in the US, people can be vicious and uncouth and do not miss opportunities to assassinate people’s characters. I suspect that is what they will do to President Trump, since his enemies are trying very hard to connect him to Epstein in a sordid way. Unless there is evidence of impropriety, having met with Epstein does not make anyone guilty.
This true life story was made into a great movie called "Scandal" starring the beautiful Bridget Fonda, daughter of actor Peter Fonda, grand daughter of actor Henry Fonda. British actress Joanne Whalley played the lead part. They both were prostitutes in the real life story.. Thus, the Profumo women were like the Epstein girls, but just a little bit older. The Epstein girls were prostitutes, and did what they did willingly and for money. He paid them for sex and massages.. Yes, they were teenagers which made it a crime to have sex with them or act as their pimp like Epstein did.
I don’t hold much hope for many to suffer much public shame or damage. People are too desensitized to evil, hate , violence, scandal, lawlessness and immorality. Too many people actually cheer it on!
There is NO ACCOUNTABILITY today because with precious few exceptions our politicians and bureaucrats are ALL GUILTY of crimes against the Republic and don’t dare ‘throw stones’ lest it be their own ‘windows’ that be broken!
Most of them won’t go so easily. They will lawyer up, settle out of court, hide in their bubbles, disappear, all the usual schemes of today’s rich and powerful.

The world has been flipped, for sure.
We NEED a turning point.

Ha, I love this George.
last week I expressed the EXACT same sentiment to my wife. . .
TAW.
You win the internet with your comment.
You nailed it.
Yes, And what about the info that Epstein was working for the CIA?
Hmmm. Profumo was an honorable man. There are now very few of them in Parliament and in American politics one would be challenged to find even one.

And I hope, even more so, that the people who set up the Epstein honey trap to blackmail influential people will also be brought to justice.

So do I. A friend worked at, evidently, Toynbee Hall, and she said he was the ultimate in politeness and correctness.
It added a catchphrase to popular language and conversation...known as the MRDE..."Well, he would, wouldn't he..?"

Ah, John, not brown-nosing, but you ARE a good writer

Bread and circuses my friend; the Romans had both to a tee, millennia ago.
